Seeing the old beggar take action and losing a few more people on his side, Yan Ming simply knelt down.

"I will die."

Seeing the people around him dying and running away, he had no second choice.

The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, and Qingshan stepped forward to untie the ropes for Ding Dai and Jiang Can. Han Rui and Qi Wei, who had been hiding at the back door, finally breathed a sigh of relief, entered through the back door, stepped over several corpses, and walked around

A courtyard leads to the main hall of Zhaoyang Palace.

Seeing that the Queen Mother and the Emperor were safe and sound, she shouted with a trembling voice: "Mother, the Emperor."

The Queen Mother and the Emperor turned around to look at the withered leaves on her bun and the disheveled look of her hair. Both of them had red circles in their eyes.

Especially the Queen Mother stepped forward and hugged her in her arms.

The three of them, mother and son, were all in a state of utter confusion. It could be seen that each other was still alive and well, and everything was kept secret.

The survivors were all injured, so they thought that Han Rui was carrying the best gold sore medicine that Pei Qiniang had given her to stop bleeding.

The only people left in Zhaoyang Palace were Qiuye and the laughing eunuch who had been following Mudan.

Eunuch Li beside the emperor is gone.

The little eunuch was clever: "I will go and ask the imperial doctor on duty to come over now."

The imperial doctor who was on duty escaped by hiding in a large vat in the courtyard of the imperial hospital. When someone from the palace rushed in and told him that something had happened in the palace, he hid there until now and carefully came out of the vat.

Only then did he bump into the young eunuch who was looking for someone.

The imperial doctor's expression changed again and again all the way to Zhaoyang Palace. He was glad that he had hidden himself long ago, otherwise another corpse like his would be added to the palace.

Jiang Can's right hand was seriously injured, the bones were visible, and the blood had soaked his sleeve.

Qi Yu pursed her lips and carefully wiped his wound, and then the doctor applied the medicine. The muscles around her eyelids trembled from time to time, as if she was the one being applied the medicine.

Qiuye led the remaining palace servants to clean up Zhaoyang Palace.

"Mother, I'm afraid it will take time to clean Zhaoyang Palace, so why not live in Churui Palace."

The Queen Mother looked tired. What happened tonight was enough to frighten her. She really needed a good rest.

"That's fine."

A soft sedan arrived in Qiuye, and Han Rui helped the Queen Mother get up, but the Emperor refused. He bowed and asked for instructions: "Mother, I want the ministers to enter the palace immediately to discuss matters."

There are too many things to deal with when the King of Han rebels. How should the Crown Prince of Han deal with them?

How many members of the Praetorian Guard secretly colluded with him?

These are all problems that need to be solved.

"Watch your body."

Han Rui heard the emperor asking the young eunuch's name behind him and promoted him to the position of royal director beside the emperor.

So Xiao Lu, the unknown little eunuch of Zhaoyang Palace, suddenly turned into Eunuch Lu, the emperor's former imperial director.

When they arrived at the Chu Rui Palace, Haitang and the palace staff came forward to salute cautiously.

There are many more innocent souls in the palace tonight.

"Mother, please stay in my bedroom. It's still early, so I'll take a nap. There are still many things waiting for my decision."

After all, the emperor is young, and many things still need to be decided by the queen mother.

The Queen Mother was extremely tired due to a trouble tonight. Qiuye and Haitang helped her wash up briefly, and fell asleep almost as soon as they touched the pillow.

Han Rui and Qi Yu arrived at the partial point.

It can be seen that Qi Yu is still worried about Duke Fu's injury, and has been frowning.

"Sister Qi, don't worry. There is no problem with my cousin's injuries. He will definitely get married to you as scheduled."

I had a brush with death tonight, and I really need a smile.

Maybe no one who has traveled through time is more unlucky than me. I have only been the eldest princess for a few days, but someone has rebelled against her again and again, and I am also frightened. Who will be next?

"Fortunately, tonight passed safely."

Qi Yu clasped his hands and murmured to himself.

Everyone knew how hard it was to win, and Qi Yu sincerely thanked Mudan.

"Thank you, sister. If it weren't for my sister, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to win tonight."

She called Mudan her sister very affectionately, as if she didn't mind her identity.

For the two of them, tonight was thrilling, and it was the same for Peony.

If the big tree of the Princess Protector fell down, it would not do her any good. I am afraid that the King of Han would have known about her fight with the Princess. If the King of Han gained power, how could he let her go?

After finally getting her current family fortune, she doesn't want to live in exile.

When Han Rui went to Tianxiang Tower to find her, she risked all her wealth without saying a word.

Tonight, more than half of her hands were lost, and most of the remaining ones were injured.

However, Mudan was still polite and respectful in front of Han Rui, "This is my duty. Miss Qi must not hurt me."

"If it weren't for your people tonight, I'm afraid I would have become a dead soul by the sword. What do you want?"

If you have made such a great contribution, you must be rewarded.

Mudan shook her head, "I am very satisfied with everything now. As long as there are no variables, it will be the best."

Indeed, ever since she first set her sights on the Princess Protector in the palace, and later took the opportunity to get attached to the Princess, she is now becoming more and more comfortable in the capital, and her business is getting better and better, and she even bought a lot of good land and shops.

.

These were things she had never dared to think about before.

"You have done a great job in rescuing me. I will have a detailed discussion with the Queen Mother tomorrow and I will give you something as a reward."

Peony smiled and said nothing.

She was born in a humble background and being able to serve the Princess Protector was already a great blessing, and she didn't dare to ask for anything else.

Two hours later, the first ray of sunlight crossed the horizon and spread to the earth.

Qiuye was about to wake up the Queen Mother, but when he opened the curtain, he found that the Queen Mother was staring above her head with her eyes open.

"It's time for the Queen Mother to get up early."

The Queen Mother let out a long sigh, "Is Ning Xiangke going to the palace?"

"When the Queen Mother arrived at Chu Rui Palace, Ning Xiang and others had already entered the palace. They should be in Ningde Palace at the moment."

"Please help Aijia wake up."

She only took a nap for two hours, but her face was still full of fatigue. In her dream, Zhaoyang Palace was littered with corpses. She saw the King of Han holding a sword to kill his son, and saw his daughter hugging her and crying. When she woke up, she realized that it was all a dream.

, the nightmare is over.

When Han Rui came over, the Queen Mother had already finished packing and was preparing to go to the morning court.

"The queen looks good, and she is waiting here to have lunch with her."

The Queen Mother nodded, glanced at her daughter reluctantly, and then walked out.

Mudan stood behind her and said, "The princess said that the Marquis of Huaiyin sacrificed his own life to hold the princess back. What conditions does the princess think the King of Han granted him?"

Han Rui lowered her head, but after thinking for a long time she still had no idea.

"My concubine's eyeliner said that a concubine whom Huaiyin Hou loved very much in the past has not been seen for a while."

As if the sun broke through the thick fog, Han Rui clapped her hands and shouted: "This must be how the King of Han sent Huaiyin Hou, this pregnant concubine, to southern Xinjiang."

"I also guessed the same, and I have sent someone to verify it."

"Huaiyin Hou is so ambitious that his actions will undoubtedly deceive all the southern Xinjiang royal family."

Han Rui was in a good mood, and the feeling of surviving the disaster was so good.
