"Your Highness the Seventh Princess, the Queen has asked her servant to tell you that the Fifth Prince is fine. We will wait until the funeral is over." A maid next to the Queen whispered to the Seventh Princess.
The seventh princess looked at the palace maid a little strangely, and then at the queen strangely. Wasn't the queen unable to speak?
The Queen's eyes also glanced in her direction at this time, but then she looked towards the Queen Mother's mourning hall.
The funeral ceremony officially began.
After the ceremony in the palace, the coffin of the Queen Mother was sent to the imperial mausoleum to be buried with the late emperor.
When the Queen Mother's coffin left the palace, it was already bright and there were roadside memorials wherever the hearse passed.
The entire capital also looked plain white.
The funeral procession was led by the emperor himself and stretched for dozens of miles, with mourning bells ringing all the way to the imperial mausoleum.
At this time, the most empty thing was the palace.
Palace prison.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps, causing Li Ran to open his eyes.
But it was Hong Bin who walked over quickly.
"Your Highness, my subordinate's rescue is too late!"
He opened the cell door with a knife and said, "Your Highness, the fake emperor has gone to the imperial mausoleum. Now is the time for us to regain control of the palace!"
Li Ran sighed, "As the grandson of the emperor, I cannot see the emperor's grandmother on her last journey." "Your Highness, this is not all forced by the fake emperor. I believe that the Queen Mother can understand your filial piety." Hong Bin said.
"At the same time, as a prince, I don't even know where my father's bones are." Li Ran became even more depressed.
Hong Bin gritted his teeth, "When the fake emperor is caught, his subordinates will torture him severely. Your Highness, it is still important to regain control of the palace at this time."
Li Ran raised his head, "Although we know that he is not my father, what evidence is there to point out that he is not my father?"
Hong Bin was startled for a moment, "Your Highness, no matter what, let's take back control of the palace first, and everything will be solved naturally. Moreover, He Rong and the Xiqiang elite are helping us to siege the palace. I believe it won't take long." Can capture the palace."xь.
Li Ran walked out, "Although Li Yuanjing went to the imperial mausoleum, his defense couldn't be so weak. He did it on purpose!"
Hong Bin was stunned, "What do you mean by your highness?"
"He took all the civil and military officials to the imperial mausoleum. Even if we control the palace, who will support us? On the contrary, my charge of treason is more solid." Li Ran said.
"Your Highness, it won't be like this. This is the instruction of His Majesty Li Marquis. As long as His Highness takes the initiative, the civil and military officials will surely make a difference. Then it will be time to expose the true face of the false emperor!" Hong Bin said.
Li Ran sighed, "I only hate that I am useless and can't even fight against Li Yuanjing."
"Your Highness, please don't say that. It's just that this Li Yuanjing is too cunning. Who knew he would impersonate His Majesty," Hong Bin said.
Li Ran waved his hand, "Okay, it's useless to talk about this now. Since Li Hou has taken this step, he has his reasons, let's go!"
He Rong and Zha Maimou did not spend much time in attacking the palace.
Then he reunited with Li Ran, who quickly regained control of the palace.
But as Li Ran said, the current palace is just an empty city.
The news naturally spread to the imperial mausoleum quickly.
Li Yuanjing was furious.
"I never thought that Li Ran would raise an army on the day of the Queen Mother's funeral. It is really treasonous!"
All the officials looked at each other.
They really didn't expect this to happen.
Wasn't the fifth prince being imprisoned for self-reflection? Why did he suddenly start an army?
However, they did not dare to express any opinions on this matter.
After they arrived at the imperial mausoleum, they discovered that there were surprisingly many guards in the imperial mausoleum, which was somewhat abnormal in itself.
