The gates of Yihua Palace opened.

And almost at the same time, in the dark night in the distance, there was a sudden earth-shattering loud noise, as if a thunderclap had suddenly exploded in the dry land, and the whole world trembled.

I was caught off guard and trembled.

What's going on?

I hurriedly looked into the distance in astonishment, and before I could react for a while, there was already one more person beside me, and my little hand grabbed my hand: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

It was a wonderful word, she and Su Su had just opened the door of Yihua Palace, and at the same time they heard the loud noise, obviously frightened, she ran over and grabbed my hand, Su Su also shrank in fright, and looked at the place where the voice came from with wide eyes: "That's, what kind of sound?" ”

“……”

Before I could speak, or even think, I was shocked by another loud bang.

Bang!

That voice, as if it was somewhat familiar, as if it had been heard somewhere?

It seems to be-

My breath suddenly tightened, and I felt my hand being pinched hard, and when I looked down, Miao Yan seemed to feel something from the sudden and rapid wind, and was looking at me nervously, and asked, "Mother, what is that?" ”

"That's—"

My memory was a little confusing, but probably because I had just walked back from the Emperor's side, and I had just recalled too many things that had happened in the past ten years, and I found the answer in my mind almost immediately.

At the beginning, Pei Yuanhao's soldiers besieged the imperial city and ascended the throne, that is, on that night, I saw the most tragic scene of the battle within the imperial family, the blood flowed like a river, the corpses piled up, Yang Yunhui led his soldiers and horses to attack the imperial city, the noon gate was under the heavy impact, and finally collapsed to the ground.

The sound was almost exactly the same as the loud noise we had just heard!

The only difference is that the place where the sound came from was not the noon gate, but the Xuanwu gate!

Could it be that

At this moment, my brain buzzed, and suddenly the whole person was cold, Miao Yan and Su Su didn't know why, they just looked at me suspiciously, and I came back to my senses, and immediately grabbed Miao Yan's hand with my backhand: "Hurry up!" ”

"What?!"

The two of them were stunned again, and looked at me at a loss: "Mother, where do you want me to go?" ”

"Yes, Miss," Su Su was also stunned: "Miss Sun just had a nightmare, and she woke up and didn't see you, so she was looking for you everywhere, why do you want us-"

Before she could finish speaking, I immediately said, "Hurry up, something is wrong!" ”

"Huh?"

Although the two of them were still a little ignorant, I understood at this moment - we were so naïve! I thought that in the court, the method of using the emperor and the crown prince to assist in governing the government could solve the problem in front of me, but now, the problem in front of me is solved, but the problem is not solved at all!

Some people are unwilling to fly away with the power that is already in their hands, and they want to do it directly!

At this moment, another loud bang came, followed by an earth-shattering rumbling sound, as if the huge palace door was slammed open and fell to the ground with a bang, the sound seemed to carry a wave of air, when did it invade the entire palace, the palace that was silent just now, all of a sudden, like a boiling soup pot, I heard the frightened shouts in the distance, and the sound of those people in the Yihua Palace being awakened and asking around.

It's all messed up.

This time, Miao Yan was obviously frightened, and the hand holding my hand shrank a little: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

“……”

"Mother!"

I looked into the distance, in the originally dark night, the fire gradually lit up, and there were countless screams of terror, the sound of crying came from that side, and suddenly, the blood in my body seemed to suddenly freeze into ice.

I said slowly: "Someone, going to rebel." ”

……

Things came too fast.

Actually, if you think about it, things don't happen quickly.

The other party probably didn't prepare early, so he didn't start until it was almost dawn, obviously it was also a temporary intention, and he prepared for nearly ten hours, but even so, for such a long time in the middle, we almost didn't have the consciousness to be on guard, and it was indeed too light.

The harem soon became chaotic.

I took Miao Yan by the way, followed by Su Su with a pale face, and quickly met another group of people walking towards this side at an intersection, and when I looked at it, it was Chang Qing, and she was also followed by them, and her hand was holding Nian Shen's hand tightly.

As soon as she saw me, her face immediately showed a look of reassurance: "Light! ”

"Queen Mother!"

"Over there, what's going on?"

My expression was solemn, and I knew that this was not the time to hide, so I said: "The voice came from the Xuanwu Gate, if I guessed correctly, someone should be leading an army to attack the imperial city!" ”

"What?!"

She gasped: "Who is it?!" ”

“……”

This time, I couldn't answer.

Who the hell is it?

The moment I didn't see the other party, I can't guess at will, because there are too many possibilities and variables, and the most important thing at this moment is to ensure the safety of the people in front of me first.

I said, "Mother, where are you going?" ”

Kou'er hurriedly said: "The voice came from the Xuanwu Gate, and we were afraid that it had fallen over there, so we planned to go to the Wumen Gate first." ”

"No way!"

I dismissed the idea in one bite, and Chang Qing looked at me: "Why? ”

I said: "Although they came in from the Xuanwu Gate, it is impossible not to expect that we will leave from the Wumen Gate, if we go to the Wumen Gate at this time, I am afraid that there will be people guarding over there, so that the past will fall into their hands." ”

"So, what should I do?"

I frowned and thought about it, listening to the noisy and chaotic sound that was getting closer and closer, the eunuchs and palace maids around were obviously panicked, and some had even begun to scream and run around, I calmed down, and then said, "Go to the emperor." ”

"The Emperor?!"

Chang Qing was stunned for a moment, but immediately seemed to come to her senses, and nodded at me: "Yes, you should go there." ”

It's just that between the lightning and the flint, the mind has been decided, I took Miaoyan's hand and brought her to Chang Qing's side: "Miaoyan, you follow the queen mother, and your prince brother, to the emperor and grandfather." ”

As soon as they heard what I said, several of them were stunned, and Chang Qing immediately said, "Light, you are—"

Miao Yan was also anxious: "Mother, aren't you with me?" ”

"Mother still has something to do."

She was anxious and grabbed me with her backhand: "But, will there be danger!" ”

She wasn't stupid, she looked at the chaos around her, and heard me talking to Chang Qing, and she somewhat understood what was going on, and the palm of the little hand that grabbed me was soaked with sweat.

I took a deep breath, squatted down and grabbed her shoulder: "Listen, there are bad guys coming in, but there are still many people who don't know, and there are still some people, my mother needs to notify them, let them protect themselves, and fight off those bad guys." ”

"But, mother-"

"Hiding can only protect yourself, but it can't solve the problem."

“……”

"Mother is going to solve the problem!"

After saying this, I firmly withdrew my hand from her palm, Chang Qing stepped forward, took her hand from mine, and held it tightly, but she was obviously also worried, looking at me: "Light, if you go like this, in case-"

I interrupted her, "It's okay. ”

“……”

"However, Niangniang, you have to be careful, you must not leave that old Taoist priest one step. Be there for him, and it will be safe. ”

"What about yourself?"

"Don't worry, someone can protect me."

She was slightly stunned, but looking at my determined eyes, she was also a little hesitant, and finally nodded lightly: "Okay, you have to be careful." ”

After saying that, she turned around and left with wonderful words and thoughts.

I stood in place, looking at Miaoyan looking back at me step by step, with a weeping expression on my face, until I was taken away by Chang Qing and couldn't see it, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

And looking around, my mood was heavy again.

At this time, the sky was only slightly bright, and the light emitted by the lanterns under the eaves still had a hint of red in the night, like blood, and those panicked eunuchs and palace maids were walking around in a panic, and there were many unaware who ran out to inquire about the news.

I settled down and began to walk back.

After a while, I arrived outside Yihua Palace, which was different from the quiet just now, there were people running around outside, and the people inside also noticed something unusual, and some probes looked out, and when they saw me coming back, they immediately asked in horror: "Miss Yan, what's wrong?" ”

I walked in, and without looking back, I said, "Shut the palace door, no matter who comes, you are not allowed to open it!" ”

The guards were frightened by my fierce appearance, and hurriedly closed the palace door.

I walked in quickly, and as soon as I walked into the room, I saw Nangong Lizhu kneeling on the edge of the bed, looking back at me with a pale face.

She didn't know much about what was going on outside, but she had obviously heard something, and when she saw me coming back, she immediately asked, "What's wrong outside?" ”

I stood in the doorway, froze down, and said, "I want to ask you too." ”

"Ask me?"

"Someone is attacking the Xuanwu Gate."

“……”

"Now, the palace gate should have been breached."

She was taken aback and looked at me with a pale face: "Someone, attacked the palace?" ”

"That's right."

"Who is it?!"

I walked slowly, step by step, and as I went, I asked, "Who is it, don't you know?" ”

When she heard this, her face suddenly sank: "What do you mean by asking this?!" ”

I walked outside the curtain, looked at her pale face coldly, and said: "A few days ago, everyone thought that the power of the auxiliary government would fall into the hands of one person, and he probably thought so himself, but it was the providence that made people, and the power in his hands flew. ”

“……”

"What do you think this person would do if the dog jumped off the wall in a hurry?"
