It was already completely dark.

On the high palace wall, the Praetorian Guards had already lit countless torches, and the spears in their hands looked more and more cold and ruthless under the reflection of the firelight.

Obviously, Zhao Xifeng was already a little out of breath, and the Praetorian Guards under him were also all ready to fight, for fear that the eldest princess would suddenly give an order and let the people outside the palace rise up and force the palace.

Under the city wall, more and more people in the capital gathered around the eldest princess, constantly waving their fists and shouting.

And not far behind everyone, more and more courtiers and family elders also rushed over, but they just watched quietly and coldly.

For them, it was just a game between the eldest princess and the emperor. Whoever wins or loses, they are all beneficiaries.

If the eldest princess wins, and the Yun royal family loses, then they will naturally have the opportunity to sit on that dragon chair and dominate the world; if the eldest princess loses, the emperor will definitely be greatly injured, and then they can naturally support a certain prince to ascend to the throne, and continue to live their lives behind their backs.

Under the night sky, all forces were entrenched under the palace walls, and the scene was chaotic and noisy.

However, the strange thing is that no matter how noisy it is under the palace walls, there is no movement within the palace walls. Neither the emperor nor the Empress Dowager Zhou ever showed up.

Everything seems noisy and weird.

The eldest princess didn't speak, just silently looked at the tall palace wall in front of her.

Within the walls of that palace is where she grew up, and where she will live for a long time.

This imperial city is her home and the place where her dreams began.

Now, she has been planning for more than ten years and is about to start her dream.

It was already dark, and she was still waiting, waiting for the arrival of the Tongzhou army, waiting for the moment when the imperial city opened its doors to her.

The eldest princess suddenly looked back at the people of the family behind her, and smiled meaningfully.

At this moment, what are these people thinking, how can she not know?

It's nothing more than the emperor taking turns to sit and come to my house this year.

It's a pity that they don't have such a chance!

Under the butcher's knife of the Tongzhou army, no one will have a chance to sit on that dragon chair......; Herself!

She Yunyun will be the first empress on the mainland! She is the empress who will be admired by the world even more than the queen of the phoenix!

In the night, Yun Ji stood in the shadow of the palace wall, watching this scene from a distance, and sighed slightly.

Look, this is the so-called heavenly family affection, what a joke!

The man at the front was his aunt, and behind her was his brother!

However, it was these people who stood under the walls of this palace with their own thoughts, forcing their father to do so!

Is this the flesh and blood of the heavenly family?

Yun Ji only felt extremely ironic.

However, what made him feel even more ironic was that at this moment, even he himself had to stand here......

The sudden sound of a leisurely sigh in his ears made Yun Ji turn around suddenly.

"Susu?" Yun Ji was a little surprised.

He thought she wouldn't be here.

In the night, An Lingsu shook his head, and after winking at Yunji, he took a few steps to the side.

Yun Ji understood, and followed her to the hidden place around the corner.

In the night, the eyes of the two inadvertently touched everything, but they felt quite emotional.

"Su Su, why are you here?" Yun Ji asked first.

"Yun Cheng, I just came out of the palace and went to confirm something. An Lingsu said, not avoiding Yun Ji's scorching gaze.

Yun Ji nodded, and didn't ask much, but deliberately avoided the topic, "What about Professor Luo?"

"Went out of town. An Lingsu understood his difficulties and replied to his words, "The academy has received news that the Tongzhou army has sworn allegiance to the eldest princess and is ready to rebel. Now, the two professors have taken Zhang Ping over. ”

Zhang ping......?

Yun Ji frowned slightly, and quickly understood what An Lingsu meant.

"Zhang Ping is indeed a good candidate. He said.

Zhang Ping is a member of the academy and a person she trusts. Since she is the person she trusts, she is naturally also the person she trusts.

"Yun Cheng," An Lingsu glanced at him deeply, and still asked what was in his heart, "Now, what do you want to do?"

As she spoke, she looked up at the brightly lit and crowded place on the palace wall.

Yun Ji also followed her gaze.

"I want to wait. Yun Ji said silently.

Wait?

An Lingsu frowned, looking at the gathering place of several great families over there, and suddenly understood what Yun Ji meant.

"The people of the eldest grandson family and the Zhou family haven't arrived yet?" she asked, but her heart sank.

Zhou Zechen was the first to stand up behind the eldest princess, but at the moment, his grandfather ---- the prime minister of the empire, Zhou Xingxing, still did not appear.

What does this mean?

An Lingsu had to think a little more.

"Su Su, did you find out too?" Yun Ji didn't look back, but sighed, "The eldest grandson family and the Zhou family are probably thinking about other ideas." ”

An Lingsu sighed. "Yun Ji, the eldest grandson's family...... but a stranger to you. ”

"What about the foreign family?" Yun Ji smiled faintly and said with a slight sneer, "Su Su, look at the people on the other side, but the family of the in-laws, has reached this point now, let alone the foreign family that is separated by a layer." ”

No matter how good his grandfather is to him on weekdays, he is always surnamed Yun, not the eldest grandson!

What's more, now this surnamed Yun is very likely to have the blood of foreigners in his bones! What kind of choice the eldest grandson family makes at this time is not too much.

Human nature is selfish, and it is the instinct of the world to seek advantage and avoid harm.

I can't complain, and I can't blame it!

The world is hot and cold, and people are indifferent, nothing more than this.

Yun Ji has long understood this.

An Lingsu didn't persuade anymore, but sighed silently.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves ahead.

When they looked up at the same time, they saw a banner embroidered with a lion, roaring in the night.

This is the family crest of the eldest grandson's family.

It's the eldest grandson Wujiang who has arrived.

Yun Ji and An Lingsu glanced at each other, and a wry smile flashed in their eyes.

It's time to come, it's finally here.

On the palace wall, it's time for some movement.

Both of them knew that there was no movement in the palace until now, not choosing to be silent, but also waiting, waiting for all the people to gather under the imperial city.

And now, when the eldest grandson Wujiang has arrived, and Zhou Xingxing will probably not show up, the people in the palace really don't have to wait any longer.

The audience has already arrived, and this good show between the royal families can finally kick off.

Sure enough, as soon as the eldest grandson Wujiang appeared, there was movement on the city wall.

As the long horns sounded one after another, on the high palace city, Zhao Xifeng led all the royal forest troops to kneel, and the sound of the mountain shouting long live was even more neatly praised in the night wind.

With the tsunami-like sound of the mountain, a bright yellow figure walked step by step into everyone's sight.
