Su Mu nodded. Murong Sheng was no longer a capable person, and Gu Yue was just a woman. With so many soldiers guarding her outside, how could she be afraid of something happening?
Afterwards, Su Mu went in to take a look and found that Murong Sheng no longer wanted to live as before and had a sense of survival.
And Gu Yue kept holding his hand, her eyes dull and tears flowing silently.
Outside the palace, all the hostages have been rescued, but a few people still died, which is inevitable.
People from the Shunde Marquis also participated in the rebellion, and the whole family was brought under control, but their legitimate daughter Zhong Lier disappeared.
Su Wan waited at Feng Ying's place, not daring to sleep and unable to sleep, so he kept listening to the noise outside.
Jiang Yu said that if he was safe, he would come to pick her up immediately.
Feng Ying stayed outside until Anan came over.
"Princess, Princess, are you asleep?"
Hearing Anan's voice, Su Wan jumped up from the couch. She didn't even take off her clothes, she just kept waiting.
"I haven't slept yet. Where is Jiang Yu? How is he?" Su Wan ran out and asked Jiang Yu immediately.
"The rebels have been dealt with. The prince is fine, but he can't leave the palace yet. So let me pick you up. You can see him and feel at ease. Then I will take you back."
Jiang Yu knew that she would not be relieved if she did not see him, but there were still many things in the palace waiting for him to make decisions. Because Murong Huai and the others were still unconscious, he could not leave casually and could only ask Anan to pick her up.
Anan was 100% trustworthy, so Su Wan got on the carriage and followed her to the gate of Xuanwu. This was not the main battlefield, so there was no bloody scene.
In the Square of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there was a river of blood.
Jiang Yu was waiting at the door. At this time, the sky was slightly bright. Seeing him standing there properly, Su Wan ran directly towards him and hugged him.
The wound on his arm had just been bandaged, and blood overflowed from the hug, but Jiang Yu remained silent.
Su Wan could still smell the blood on his body.
"You are hurt?"
"No, I just killed the enemy." Jiang Yu denied, not wanting her to worry.
"Where are my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother? Are they safe?" Su Wan didn't forget about his brother after having a husband.
"They are all safe. The eldest brother smoked cigarettes and is still in a coma, but there is no serious problem. The second brother is very busy and has to save people. The third brother can't leave, but I saw him before and he is fine."
Su Chen suffered some skin trauma, but since his skin was rough and fleshy, it was nothing.
In this way, Su Wan felt relieved.
"I can't leave yet, let Anan take you home first, and wait for me at home." He touched her head, very dotingly.
After Su Wan confirmed that they were all fine, she returned home peacefully. The carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, and Liu Yun met her at the door.
Anan sent her away and had to go back to help.
The gates of the two mansions were torn down by the rebels. When Su Wan went up the steps, a figure suddenly emerged from behind the stone lions on both sides.
"Su Wan, go to hell." A sharp female voice sounded before Su Wan could react.
Just listen to Liu Yun shout:
"Princess, be careful!" She stood in front of Su Wan, and the knife scratched the back of her hand.
She raised her foot and kicked the attacker over.
The man was holding a knife and was kicked down the steps. The knife in his hand was not held properly and it was pierced directly into his abdomen.
Liuyun immediately drew his sword and walked away. He took out the fire folder from his waist and flicked it, and a weak flame ignited.
Su Wan was startled, her heart pounding.
Liu Yun looked down and saw that the figure was that of a woman, but she was twitching slightly. She turned her over with her feet and used fire to take a look.
Good guy, it's Zhong Li'er, but why is she here?
"The princess is Zhong Li'er!"
Su Wan had not heard this name for a long time, because she had been a laughing stock in Kyoto since she plotted against Jiang Yu and her reputation was ruined. No one dared to marry her, and her status in the family also plummeted.
The fact that she appears here now to assassinate Su Wan really sends chills down the spine.
Fortunately, Liuyun was there, otherwise he would have suffered.
"She's dead..."
Su Wan just walked over. The whole process only lasted more than ten seconds. She was gone?
It was later discovered that when she rolled down the steps, the knife in her hand was stuck in her abdomen.
Su Wan held her forehead, but still asked someone to cover her body with a white cloth and send it to Dali Temple.
The back of Liu Yun's hand was injured, but because all the maids in the mansion had gone to seek refuge, Su Wan could only bandage it in person.
…
In the palace, when the sky is bright, the Square of the Hall of Supreme Harmony has been cleaned up, and countless corpses will be transported to the crematorium in the suburbs.
Last night's incident caused people to dare not go out at all. There were no pedestrians on the street and no shops open.
Murong Huai woke up the next morning with a splitting headache.
He really didn't expect Murong Sheng's mischief last night, but fortunately he had planned the situation in advance, and everything was going according to his development.
He was very sad when he heard that Murong Sheng almost died.
Before his death, his father also told him that even if there was trouble with the vassal kings in the future, he still hoped that Murong Huai would not kill them and spare their lives, because they were all brothers after all. As long as they spared their lives, he would take care of the rest. You can watch and deal with it.
If it weren't for this, Murong Huai wouldn't care about his life or death.
Murong Sheng was finally rescued, but there was still a trial waiting for him.
Many participants in this palace change will not be able to escape the sanctions.
The house of the Marquis of Shunde was ransacked, and no one was left alive. There were also those who rebelled, and all of them died.
King Qi's case was minor, and Murong Huai allowed him to return to his fief.
The King of Chu surrendered in time. Most of the people who were guarding the hostages were his people. The Princess of Chu gave them a token in advance, so they were saved. Because there were no large casualties to the hostages, it was considered a meritorious service. The merits and demerits were balanced. He also You can return to the fief, but for the next five years, the tax paid by the fief will be doubled every year.
A fief cannot make ends meet, and if taxes double in five consecutive years, he will have to be poor for at least ten years. After more than ten years, he will also be old.
Murong Huai also temporarily added a policy, inserting an organization in each vassal prince's fiefdom, named the envoy in the vassal, and leading the army to permanently station in the vassal territory to prevent the kings from causing chaos again.
As for the envoy this time, Murong Sheng, the late emperor saved his life. Murong Huai deposed his throne, but still gave him residence in the Jin Palace, abolished all his martial arts, broke his legs, and never had a relationship with his concubine. When you leave the palace, he will send troops to guard you.
As for Murong Chen, he was raised in the palace from then on and could visit the palace, but not for more than half an hour at a time. He was still respected as the crown prince.
However, he will always be watched by people planted by Murong Huai. Although he has the position of heir apparent, he will never be able to leave Kyoto and the palace in this life.
Murong Huai still couldn't bear to do something too harsh to the child...
After Gu Yue gave birth to her second child, whether it was a son or a daughter, she had to take her to the palace to raise her.
He was afraid that the couple would teach the child badly and cause him a lot of trouble in the future.
He didn't let Murong Sheng kill himself. If he disobeyed the order, then think about it, his child was still in the palace, which was equivalent to being a hostage.
Living is the greatest punishment for him, especially living in a cage-like place, life is worse than death.
