Ye Nianchen couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in her heart, although she couldn't sympathize with the emperor at all, and even felt that the emperor's fate was the most relieving of her hatred, but at the same time, she had to secretly say: The most ruthless emperor's family!

In fact, after thinking about it, what is ruthless is not only the emperor's family, how much better will the former Ye family be than the so-called emperor's family? Father and son are not father and son, brother is not brother, everything is just about profit.

It's just that at this moment, Ye Nianchen has a subconscious fear of Li Zhi in his heart.

The more she understands Li Zhi's character, the clearer that fear becomes, and the more Li Zhi treats her, the more she feels unspeakably uneasy.

"How's it going out there?" She seemed to inadvertently sweep her gaze to other places, and naturally diverted Li Zhi's words.

Seeing this, Li Zhi didn't care, and replied simply and clearly: "The situation is not very good, the second man's men are about to arrive at Zhengyang Palace, this time their number is more than I expected, if there is no accident, they will almost rush to the outside of Zhengyang Palace in a quarter of an hour." ”

For Ye Nianchen, Li Zhi didn't hide it at all, and after hearing this, those people below were so anxious that they were sweating all over their heads, but their prince was extremely calm, and it was not easy to squeak and disturb.

"In a quarter of an hour?" Ye Nianchen thought for a while, looked at Li Zhi and asked, "So, is there enough time?" ”

The time she said naturally refers to the arrival of reinforcements, and they will arrive outside Zhengyang Palace in a quarter of an hour, and there are also key troops outside Zhengyang Palace, but how fast is the speed of reinforcements. But it's really hard to tell.

"The latest reports have been received that the reinforcements are in trouble as they enter the city, but several vanguards have already broken through and are rushing to the palace at full speed."

Li Zhi didn't reply positively, it was not enough, no one can absolutely guarantee this kind of thing. Sometimes, when it is really a human being, it is not as good as heaven, and it is up to people to plan things, and whether it is successful or not can only depend on the will of God.

"Don't worry, even if the second person arrives outside Zhengyang Palace, they won't want to attack it for a while." He smiled. comforted Ye Nianchen: "The move you helped install." I haven't started to leave yet, but the odds are pretty good. ”

Ye Nianchen naturally understood the specific meaning of these words, she nodded slightly, and did not say anything more.

The people below didn't understand it. But I guessed it. If the prince speaks like this, it means that there is a follow-up move. For a while, this heart calmed down a little.

Their hearts are like the swing board from beginning to end, swaying up and down, and it's really sad to say.

"Newspaper. Prince, the rebel army has attacked outside the Zhengyang Palace, and is now engaged with the last group of forbidden troops who are ambushed! ”

The latest battle report was sent in like the wind, and it burned the hearts of many people in Zhengyang Palace for a while.

Even, they can see the fighting not far away through the doors and windows, and the scorching torture is getting more and more tormented.

"Your Highness, for some reason, there was a sudden civil strife among the rebels, and they would have fought on their own!" It didn't take long for someone to hurry into the temple to surprise him.

After hearing this, Exect Li's expression was still as calm as before, but he nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

"Civil strife? Great, it seems that this time it can be regarded as saved, and it will definitely be able to hold on until the reinforcements rise! ”

The ministers below were delighted and discussed, admiring the prince's strategy more and more.

"If you continue like this, you should be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive!" Ye Nianchen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as long as everything was still under control, then it shouldn't be a big problem.

This time, Li Zhi didn't answer immediately, just looked at Ye Nianchen with a smile, and couldn't see the true emotions in his heart.

The noise outside was getting louder and louder, the smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger, and the time seemed longer and longer at this moment.

After a while, Li Zhi suddenly asked Ye Nianchen: "Suppose that this time, the reinforcements don't arrive in time, what do you think the second child will do with me, the prince?" ”

Hearing this question, Ye Nianchen thought for a moment before replying: "I don't know." ”

She really didn't know, if it was just Li Yu personally, there might be a slight possibility of letting Li Zhi live, but the Jiang family and the people who followed Li Yu would never let Li Yu do this.

"Then what do you think I will do with the second child if the reinforcements arrive in time?" Li Zhi asked again, but he didn't force an answer to give a reason, as if he was just mentioning it casually, and suddenly thought of it and asked by the way.

"I don't know about this." Ye Nianchen still shook her head, although she felt that Li Zhi's character would definitely not let Li Yu go easily, but there was no need to say this kind of thing.

Everyone's future outcome is caused by the path they choose, and they have to bear whatever the outcome is.

"Don't you know?" Li Zhi smiled and looked at Ye Nianchen as gentle as water: "Then what kind of result do you hope for?" ”

"I can only work for my own end." Ye Nianchen responded simply, but did not answer positively.

Seeing this, Li Zhi smiled softly again, as if he agreed, and no longer asked.

At the same time, Li Yu, the second prince not far from Zhengyang Palace, did not have the leisure to think about what Li Zhi thought.

He was protected by someone who kept him in absolute safety.

Standing there, his gaze looked in the direction of Zhengyang Palace, completely unconcerned about the specific situation of the battle beside him.

This rebellion has been carried out so far, Li Yu has already had a bottom in his heart, and his plan is afraid that it has long been expected by the prince, so he has made sufficient preparations for convenience.

Whether it was the three most advantageous elite troops to block it, or the civil strife of these men and horses he was now leading, it was all arranged by his great crown prince brother to gain sufficient time for reinforcements to arrive outside the city.

Even if this kung fu is done, the soldiers who are loyal to him are still fighting without hesitation, but he clearly knows that he has lost.

Lost, lost completely. There was no day to turn back from then on, and even his life was no longer his own.

However, instead of pain and anger at this moment, Li Yu felt an indescribable relief.

Perhaps, this is okay, no matter what, in short, it is the final ending, and there is no need to carry such a big and heavy burden all the time as before.

He has tried his best, and he has done everything that the people around him think he should do, but unfortunately he still loses after all.

Li Yu's mood at the moment was unexpectedly calm. He did not deny his desire for the throne. Whether it is the inherent nature of his heart or the impetus of external factors, he does not deny that he has paid a lot of costs for this throne, but. Until this moment. But he suddenly found out. Perhaps, the chair was not as important to him as he had thought it would be.

As soon as I thought about it, I don't know how many innocent lives were involved. A thought can change nothing.

"Second prince, I'm afraid it's not good to go on like this, the guard battalion outside the city and the nearest garrison are almost here, if we can't attack Zhengyang Palace, everything will be over for us!" The henchmen beside Li Yu were extremely anxious, the situation was far worse than they expected, and they never expected that there would be a prince among their people, and they suddenly came to a civil strife and counterattacked, and they took a bite hard.

"Yes, there are more people and horses outside Dongyang Palace than in the other two places, we are already too late!" Someone suggested: "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, General Guo, you hurry up and escort the second prince to retreat from the north gate first, we can buy you enough time to stay!" ”

"It's too late...... Li Yu finally spoke up, he silently looked at the surrounding situation, and said calmly: "Did you hear it, their reinforcements have already come." ”

"But the second prince, even if we fight to the death, we can kill a ...... for you"

"No need, let them all stop, why bother to let more people lose their lives because of me when the winner is already decided." Li Yu didn't do those useless struggles anymore and signaled to stop.

The reinforcements who got the news and rushed to the army had arrived, and it didn't take long to surround the second prince's men and horses, and this palace rebellion ended with the defeat of the rebel side.

The rebels were quickly taken down and guarded by reinforcements, and then disposed of later by the emperor's orders.

The forbidden army began to quickly redeploy the palace guards and restore the order in the palace, and the palace people were no longer frightened, and they were led by the guards to organize and clean the palace.

The generals of the rebellion, large and small, were all pressed into prison first, and Li Yu was taken into Zhengyang Palace alone and sent to Li Zhi.

Entering Zhengyang Palace, Li Yu's eyes lit up violently, his gaze was firmly locked on Ye Nianchen on the side, and he had an indescribable joy.

"It's good, you're fine!" Li Yu had an indescribable relief, and as soon as he came in, he said directly to Ye Nianchen: "I thought I would never see you again, I couldn't see you alive." ”

Ye Nianchen was slightly stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Yu's expression didn't seem to be fake, she could see that he was really happy that he was still alive.

Her mood suddenly became a little gloomy, although the rebellion was Li Yu's own decision, and she was not forced to do it, but in her revenge plan, it really played a role in fueling all this.

Speaking from her heart, there is no holiday between her and Li Yu, let alone hatred at all, and now it is a little heavy to see Li Yu mark the end point on this road of no return.

"Second Emperor Brother, I didn't expect you to be so idle about other people now, this palace really doesn't know what to say." Seeing this, the crown prince Li Zhi said loudly: "I really didn't expect that you would do such a thing. Although I miss our brotherhood, but you rebelled against the palace and committed a heinous crime, and now my father is so angry that he is paralyzed by a stroke because of you. ”

"Brother Huang, there is no need to say anything, I admit that I lost, so no matter what kind of treatment I receive, there is nothing to say."

Li Yu looked up at Li Zhi and said with a smile: "Actually, this time, the imperial brother has to thank me for his life." If I make such a fuss, you will be able to ascend the throne as the emperor directly in a few days, and I don't know how much trouble and effort will be saved. ”

"This palace is the rightful prince of Great Wei, and he has never fought for that, you think too much." Li Zhi said lightly: "Don't associate what you did with this palace, and don't try to exonerate yourself." Now although my father is ill and cannot handle this matter personally, but all the civil and military officials of the court are here, and the palace will discuss with them how to deal with you at that time! ”

"In this way, the royal brother is really fair and generous, and he didn't think about cutting me down now? Haha, that's not bad, people like me, one more day of life in the future is considered to be one more day of earning, no loss! ”

Li Yu is really full of indifference, and he has already seen life and death clearly.

To do this kind of thing for him, you have to think about success and failure, and you have already been mentally prepared for all the consequences.

"If you really want to think about it, that's not bad." Li Zhi didn't deliberately feel embarrassed, waved his hand, and motioned for the guards to take Li Yu down and put him in the prison first, waiting for disposal.

"Wait a minute, I still have a few words to say to her, the crown prince brother should not refuse to agree to the request of such a dying man, right?" Li Yu pointed to Ye Nianchen on the side, and did not avoid anything in front of everyone in Zhengyang Palace.

Seeing this, Li Zhi looked at Ye Nianchen, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he nodded slightly, acquiescing to Li Yu's request.

"Thank you, Brother Huang." Li Yu thanked him with satisfaction, and then walked towards Ye Nianchen.

"Stop!" Seeing this, the guards who were protecting Ye Nianchen on the side immediately pulled out their knives and directly stopped Li Yu, preventing him from approaching again.

After all, everyone knows that Ye Nianchen is a person that the prince attaches great importance to, in case Li Yu suddenly makes any moves to hurt Ye Nianchen, or threatens Ye Nianchen as a hostage, it will be troublesome.

"Let him come over, it'll be fine." Seeing this, Ye Nianchen naturally understood the guard's thoughts, and raised his hand slightly, signaling that there was no need to do so.

Seeing this, the guards were not moved, but looked at the prince. For them, only the order of the crown prince did the count.

"Stand down." Li Zhi didn't care about this, he knew that Li Yu would not make any unfavorable moves to Ye Nianchen.

After receiving Li Zhi's order, the guards put away their knives and stepped aside, no longer blocking them.

Li Yu smiled and said, "Brother Huang is wise!" ”

Then, he walked straight to Ye Nianchen's side in three steps and two steps, but he didn't say anything directly, but leaned into Ye Nianchen's ear without hesitation, and deliberately muttered in a low voice.

Seeing this, Li Zhi's brows immediately furrowed, and he wanted to stop it, but he still endured it and didn't squeak.

No one knew what Li Yu said to Ye Nianchen, but Li Zhi had an extremely bad feeling, and those few words were probably quite unfavorable to him. (To be continued.) )
