The book continues from the previous chapter.
It is said that at the critical moment when the two noble concubines Xian and Shu were about to be given poisonous wine, Emperor Chen jumped up and woke up early. Between "love" and "righteousness", he finally chose the former.
When Chen Keyan and King Tian saw this, they also stood up and stood behind Emperor Chen. Their eyes were wary of looking at the ministers, the queen sitting on the dragon throne, and the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who were wearing strong armor.
The ministers, eunuchs and maids were all shocked. Isn't Emperor Chen about to die? Why did you wake up suddenly?
Everyone was in a daze.
After the queen experienced the initial shock, panic, confusion and fear, her pounding heart gradually calmed down, and her tense body slowly relaxed.
It was indeed an accident for Emperor Chen to wake up suddenly, but to her now, it was not a big threat.
Most of the people in the palace, from the ministers to the imperial guards, to the eunuchs and maids, have all been secretly subdued by her.
Even if Emperor Chen wakes up, he will still be a mere commander. What should he be afraid of?
As the saying goes, there is no turning back. The Queen's decision to "surface" is also the result of careful consideration. Since she has embarked on this road, she can only go to the dark side.
Furthermore, she has tasted the wonderful feeling of "having great power". She is so fascinated by this feeling and so reluctant to give up. It is impossible to stop her from the cliff.
But even so, the queen's sitting posture on the dragon chair is no longer tilted in a relaxed and comfortable way, but is sitting upright, facing Emperor Chen's eyes from a distance, and the two people's eyes collided with each other, causing sparks of thorns.
Emperor Chen's eyes were complicated. He glanced at the queen, then turned his eyes to the two noble concubines Xian and Shu.
He first gave the second concubine a reassuring look, then stared at the old palace maid holding the poisoned wine glass in her hand, and the palace maid and eunuch holding the two noble concubines tightly, and shouted in a deep voice:
"Didn't you hear my order? Release the two concubines immediately. For the sake of your service, I can spare you the death penalty."
The old palace maid with a sinister face and the palace maid and eunuch who were guarding the two noble concubines did not move. They all turned to look at the queen sitting high on the dragon throne.
Seeing that the queen had no expression, they made no move.
Emperor Chen's face darkened. As early as a few days ago, when Su Xian proposed the strategy of "taking advantage of the enemy", Emperor Chen had a premonition that this scene might happen.
Originally, they had a strict plan to avoid this situation.
But Emperor Chen was reluctant to let go of the two concubines and could not just watch them die in front of him and "resurrection" in advance, which ultimately led to this difficult situation.
"The General of the Guardsmen obeys the order."
Of course, Emperor Chen would not sit still and wait for death. He turned his eyes and looked at the general Yu Lin in the middle of the hall. His voice was sonorous and powerful: "I order you to capture the queen immediately, without any mistakes!"
The general of the imperial forest was wearing strong armor and had a tall build. He looked like a military general at first glance, but at this moment he was shaking all over and his expression was hesitant.
The queen sat high on the dragon chair, straightened her posture again, and shouted loudly:
"Bold! Where did this monster come from? It dares to possess His Majesty. All the Imperial Guards are listening. I order you to capture this monster as soon as possible."
"..."
The ministers have not yet recovered from the incident of "Emperor Chen suddenly woke up", and now such a scene happened again, so Emperor Chen and the Queen are... seizing power?
Many people were already fighting with each other, but they still couldn't help but look at General Yulin. Who the future of Nanchen's flowery country belongs to depends largely on this person.
Seeing the General Yulin's hesitation, the queen's heart sank. She secretly winked at another man, who was also wearing a strong sword and was the deputy general of the General Yulin.
The deputy general was standing just behind the general. After getting the hint from the queen, he took out a dagger without hesitation and wiped the general's neck resolutely.
"ah……"
The general let out a scream, ignored the rush of blood, used his last strength to turn around, glanced at the deputy general who killed him, and finally fell to the ground and died.
This sudden change made everyone's hearts beat.
Especially Chen Di, Chen Keyan and King Tian.
"The Queen's decree is to capture the monster attached to Your Majesty!"
The deputy general of the Yulin Army raised his arms, drew his sword out of its sheath, and went straight towards Emperor Chen to kill him.
The soldiers of the Royal Forest Army had already been recovered by the queen. Now that the general was dead, they no longer had anything to worry about in their hearts, so they suddenly accepted the order and followed the deputy general to kill them together.
"His Majesty!"
"You are such a beast, if you don't stop, this is your Majesty!"
"Whoever dares to harm Your Majesty should step over my corpse first!"
At this time, dozens of officials who originally belonged to the melon-eating crowd rushed out and rushed in front of Emperor Chen desperately, trying to block the attack of the Imperial Forest Army.
The reason why these ministers accepted the Queen's solicitation was because "Emperor Chen was about to pass away." They had no choice but to accept the Queen's kindness.
Now that Emperor Chen is awake, they naturally still respect Emperor Chen.
Of course, more than half of the ministers did not move, some were hesitant, some were watching with cold eyes, and even some were firm supporters of King Li.
However, although the ministers who rushed over were loyal, they were all powerless civil servants. How could they resist the wolf-like and tiger-like imperial guards?
Emperor Chen felt both relieved and desperate.
King Tian and Chen Keyan were not much better. They could only silently pray that Su Xian would be faster, otherwise the plan they had planned for several days would completely fail.
"Wait a minute."
At the critical moment, the queen sitting on the dragon throne suddenly spoke up.
The Imperial Guards stopped for a moment, but did not retreat.
In just a few breaths of time, all the dozens of civil servants who had loyally protected them had been captured by them, and Emperor Chen, King Tian and Chen Keyan were about to fall into their hands.
"Before we capture that monster, let's send the two sisters on their way." The queen said coldly.
"According to the order."
The old palace maid with a sinister face, holding a glass of poisonous wine in each hand, slowly walked towards the two noble concubines Xian and Shu with a ferocious smile: "Don't be afraid, two concubines, it will be done soon, and there will be no pain."
"His Majesty……"
The two noble concubines burst into tears and looked at Emperor Chen longingly. They were very happy that Emperor Chen was not dead, but... the yin and yang were immediately separated.
Since they entered the palace, they have been favored by Emperor Chen. Emperor Chen has a deep affection for them, otherwise he would not have been "resurrected" in advance.
Emperor Chen's heart almost broke when he heard their cries. He glanced at the two concubines one last time, then closed his eyes tightly, and two lines of hot tears fell down his cheeks.
At this moment, Emperor Chen hated the queen to the extreme. The reason why the queen poisoned the two concubines before arresting him was to make him suffer the pain of life and death...
King Tian and Chen Keyan also felt uncomfortable. That was their mother and concubine. As sons of men, how could they just watch their mother being poisoned to death?
Not to mention Chen Keyan, even King Tian's eyes were red and his Tianling Gai was about to fly away with anger.
However, countless imperial guards have surrounded them. They are like prisoners bound by thick hemp ropes and cannot move at all.
"I hate it so much!"
Emperor Chen was indignant, and while wailing loudly, he turned sideways, unable to bear to face the two noble concubines who were about to be drunk with poisonous wine.
When the queen saw this, she had a ferocious smile on her face. In the past, she had to compromise and accept happiness, and she really accumulated a lot of hatred in her heart.
Now that she saw Emperor Chen being forced into this situation, she felt extremely relieved and really wanted to laugh three times.
Emperor Chen continued to roar:
"I became an emperor in vain. In the end, I couldn't even protect my own woman. I'm so ashamed!"
When the queen heard this, she saw Emperor Chen's helpless and furious look in her eyes. She felt relieved and couldn't help but grinned:
"Hahahahaha..."
Emperor Chen was desperate and could not save his woman after all. At this time, the old palace maid's terrifying laughter came to his ears: "Drink!"
At this last moment, Emperor Chen looked up to the sky and roared in anger:
"Who can save my two beloved concubines..."
The queen saw all this, Emperor Chen's incompetence and rage, and the two concubines who were about to drink poisonous wine into their throats. She felt a feeling of "controlling the fate of others" in her heart.
This feeling is so wonderful.
What's more, she controlled the fate of Emperor Chen, who was the emperor, which made the feeling of wonder doubled. The queen's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and her ferocious laughter gradually became louder.
At the same time, the lieutenants of the Royal Forest Army who were loyal to the Queen, as well as the ministers who firmly supported King Li, gradually began to smile ferociously.
The civil servants, as well as most of the eunuchs and maids, who were caught by the Imperial Guards in order to protect Emperor Chen, felt extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved, and their faces turned pale.
Emperor Chen was so insulted by the queen!
The world in Nanchen is probably going to change...
At this moment, at the last moment when the two noble concubines were about to be poured into poisonous wine, a sudden change occurred——
A thin black shadow appeared out of nowhere, as fast as lightning, and headed straight for the two noble concubines.
During this period, there was a soft sword in the black shadow's hand, and everyone felt their eyes blurred as a strong wind came over them.
Ding!
The shadow waved the soft sword in its hand, reflecting a faint cold light, like a dragon waving its tail, and hit the poisonous wine glasses at the mouths of Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu at the same time.
The two wine glasses seemed to have withstood the impact of a thousand pounds of force, and they shot out. Their directions were also very particular, and they shot towards the deputy general of the Royal Forest Army and another general who seemed to be a school lieutenant respectively.
"ah!"
They both screamed at the same time.
The black figure's movements were smooth and smooth. After hitting the poisonous wine glass with the soft sword, he swung his head and tail, and in less than half a breath, he punched a transparent hole in each of the eunuchs and maids who were holding down the two noble concubines.
"ah!"
The eunuchs and maids also screamed at the same time.
The black film was non-stop, the thin body was short, holding a sword in one hand, and hugging the waists of the two concubines at the same time with the other hand, turned around and went straight in the direction of Emperor Chen.
However, at the moment when he turned around, the soft sword in the black shadow's hand did not stop.
She raised her sword, and the old palace maid's sinful hands flew out at wrist level.
Then with a sword strike, the old palace maid's ferocious head flew into the sky more than ten feet high!
Blood spilled throughout the hall!
Despite the fact that the black shadow had done a lot, not only rescued the two noble concubines, but also killed many people one after another, and all of this happened in just two breaths.
The people in the hall, including Emperor Chen, Chen Keyan, King Tian, the Queen, as well as the eunuchs, maids, ministers, and a large number of soldiers of the Royal Forest Army, etc., could only watch helplessly and could not react at all.
Their eyes saw scenes such as the deputy general and the captain of the Royal Forest Army being smashed to death by wine glasses, the eunuch maid holding down the two noble concubines being pierced with a sword, the old palace maid with a sinister face having her hands cut off and her head cut off, etc.; their ears also heard the scene. He heard the screams of the lieutenants, eunuchs and maids.
These pictures and sounds were transmitted to their brains almost instantly, but the time was too short, and their brains could not make any reaction or decision at all.
It wasn't until a few breaths later that everyone finally understood what had happened.
When he looked again, the black shadow had already brought the two concubines back to Emperor Chen.
Emperor Chen, Chen Keyan, Prince Tian, and the two noble concubines, their family were hugging each other, crying and laughing, feeling warm and precious for the rest of their lives.
At this time, the queen and others still had ferocious smiles on their faces, but they soon became stiff, and then slowly disappeared until they were completely gone, and finally turned into livid faces.
winter!
Winter winter winter!
It was also at this time that the bodies of the deputy general and captain of the Royal Forest Army, the maid and eunuch who held down the two noble concubines, and the old maid who drank poisonous wine fell to the ground one after another.
"You are not from the secret guard, who are you?"
The queen jumped up from the dragon chair, her eyes fixed on the black shadow guarding Chen Di and others.
In an instant, everyone in the hall looked over, and there was a large area.
Emperor Chen comforted the two noble concubines and looked sideways with a slightly confused look on his face. Just now he thought it was the commander of the secret guard who had taken action, but this was clearly a woman.
Chen Keyan breathed a heavy sigh of relief, patted her mother-in-law's shoulder gently with her little hand, bowed deeply to the black figure, and said: "Thank you, Miss Yang, for saving me!"
Yes, that dark shadow is Yang Zhilan.
By the way, Su Xian is actually not idle either. He has been acting according to the plan——
Leading hundreds of soldiers, he ambushed the Emperor Chen's chamber through a secret passage. Both sides beat drums as trumpets. As soon as the drums sounded, Su Xian led his troops to kill the general.
But after much thought, he was always worried about an accident, so he arranged for Yang Zhilan to sneak into the palace first and secretly protect Chen Di, Chen Keyan, and Prince Tian.
When the Queen poisoned Concubine Wang to death, Yang Zhilan arrived, but she did not take action to rescue Concubine Wang.
First, the order Su Xian gave her was to protect Emperor Chen and the others.
Secondly, Emperor Chen did not show any desire to rescue Wang Guifei.
Third, if you act rashly, you will definitely frighten the enemy.
It wasn't until just now that the queen wanted to poison the two noble concubines Xian and Shu. Emperor Chen's behavior infected her, and she decided to save them at the last moment.
Although Yang Zhilan is an internal guard killer, she is not cold-blooded. She thought that when she was in Yingzhou, her predecessor Xiaoge ordered her to kill Su Xian, who had nothing to do with her. In the end, she would rather die than take action...
"It turns out to be Nuxia Yang. I will remember today's feelings in my heart."
Emperor Chen suddenly realized that these were the guards around Su Xian. The arrival of Yang Zhilan meant that Su Xian and the others were not far away. Emperor Chen felt reassured and his expression softened.
Yang Zhilan didn't answer, and his expression didn't change at all. He simply made a fist.
"You are just one or two people, and you want to resist thousands of troops from this palace?"
The queen noticed the change in Emperor Chen's expression. She was really unhappy with Emperor Chen's calmness. You know, Emperor Chen was being manipulated to death by her just now.
"All the officers and soldiers of the Royal Forest Army listen to the order and capture them all!" the queen ordered sternly.
"Let's see who dares!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps, at least two to three hundred people!
Everyone hurriedly turned to look at the entrance of the hall.
I saw that the person coming was a young handsome man.
The student, who has an extraordinary appearance, is handsome, elegant, dignified, graceful, handsome, graceful and peaceful, is elegant and spiritual, is striding into the palace.
Behind this handsome young man, there were indeed hundreds of people following him. Judging from their attire, they were some of the forbidden troops stationed outside the city, as well as some masters of the secret guards.
In addition, there are Zhou Wei and some experts from Butterfly Valley.
Hundreds of people gathered together to confront the Royal Forest Army.
"Mr. Su, are you finally here?" Chen Keyan was overjoyed. She left her mother and concubine behind and went to greet him. Regardless of the presence of others, she directly took Su Xian's hand.
"Master Su?" The queen and others looked suspicious.
Su Xian twitched the corner of his mouth, gently shook off Chen Keyan's pull, faced the queen and others, and said calmly: "Yes, it's me, Liang Su Xian!"
