The emperor snorted coldly: "Should I praise you for your filial piety, or should I scold you for disobedience?" All in all, if you want to sit in my place, then take it yourself. ”

The fifth prince's eyes narrowed, as sharp as quenched ice: "Since my father doesn't want to live a few more years, then don't blame me for being rude, come on..."

"Someone's coming."

The fifth prince was stunned for a moment, someone said the same thing to him, he looked over, but it was Gonggong Zhang who was shouting: "Come on, bring people up." ”

Soon, a guard escorted a man out of the temple.

The one who was detained was a woman with a stunning appearance, who was the biological mother of the fifth prince, Concubine Xian.

"Mother."

"Emperor."

Concubine Xian kept struggling, wanting to run to the five princes, but she was held dead and couldn't move.

The fifth prince lowered his face: "Father, she is your woman, what do you want to do?" ”

The emperor said coldly: "There are thousands of women in me, and she, hmph, is just the mother of a rebel, not worth mentioning." ”

When Concubine Xian heard this, she was heartbroken: "Your Majesty, the concubine has followed you for twenty-five years, but you said such things, which really makes the concubine sad." ”

The emperor's heart was as cold as iron: "Hmph, if you can teach such a rebellious son, you should have died a long time ago... Ahem..."

Gonggong Zhang looked at the emperor worriedly.

The Seventh Prince, however, stared at the Fifth Prince, beware of his sudden attack.

The fifth prince looked at the emperor's demeanor, and knew that no matter how emotionally the virtuous concubine was, it was useless, so he instructed left and right: "Go and bring all the women in the harem, especially the imperial concubine." ”

"Yes." Immediately, there were guards to do it.

The Seventh Prince hurriedly walked to the emperor's side: "Father, what should I do?" My mother is also in the palace. ”

"Shut up." As soon as the emperor said two words, he stopped coughing.

The Seventh Prince did not get a reply, so he had to figure it out by himself and find a solution, and at the same time prayed in his heart that General Yang could lead his troops over, and earlier, he had already sent someone to Yang's mansion to report the news.

Even if General Yang didn't believe it before, he should have known about the changes in the palace at this time, right?

The Seven Princes had never been so nervous for a moment as they were now, and they couldn't suppress their emotions.

Soon, the people of the five princes came back, and at the same time, a group of warblers and Yanyan were escorted.

Suddenly, the hall was filled with sharp and mixed screams.

"Your Majesty, help."

"Ah, Your Majesty..."

"Shut up." The fifth prince shouted loudly.

However, his voice could not attract the attention of these concubines, who were immersed in fear and pinned all their hopes on the man in front of them, who was firmly guarded in the middle, and that was the emperor.

It wasn't until a woman's scream resounded through the hall and drowned out all the women's voices that everyone looked at it.

It turned out that the fifth prince drew his sword and stabbed into the heart of a concubine, and blood splashed the face of the concubine next to him.

All the women opened their mouths in great horror and covered their mouths in unison, lest they make a little noise and be killed by the cruel Five Princes.

They shivered and involuntarily leaned closer together as they watched warily at the guards with swords pointed at them.

When the hall was quiet again, the fifth prince smiled with satisfaction, he grabbed Wang Zhaoyi, looked at the seventh prince, but said to the emperor: "Father, if you let the mother concubine go, I will spare these women of yours."

"If you don't let my mother go, and dare to hurt her hair, I will kill Wang Zhaoyi first."

The Seventh Prince hurriedly shouted, "Don't, don't kill my mother." ”

The fifth prince smiled evilly: "What, father? ”

......

"What do you say?"

Xiao Cong rolled up his sleeves and hit Liu Shixin.

It's a pity that Xiao Cong, who has always been polite and polite, didn't look good enough in front of the veteran Liu Shixin, Liu Shixin stretched out his hand and easily restrained Xiao Cong.

"You bastard, you falsely preach the holy decree, and you trespass into the official's mansion, you are committing a crime." Xiao Cong couldn't help but scold.

Liu Shixin pushed gently, and Xiao Cong fell towards Old Lady Xiao.

Others looked at Liu Shixin's movements as if he didn't use much force, but Xiao Cong retreated very quickly.

Xiao Cong also knew that it was Old Lady Xiao standing behind him, but he couldn't control his body, and when he was frightened, someone suddenly held his body behind him.

He breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look, and it turned out to be Xiao Lingfeng: "Eighth brother, thank you." ”

Xiao Lingfeng gave him a comforting look, and then looked at Liu Shixin sharply: "Liu Shixin, don't bully people too much, our Xiao family is not easy to bully." ”

Liu Shixin smiled: "I didn't think about bullying you, as long as you are obedient and stay in the house and don't go out, I naturally won't embarrass you." ”

"You... Why are you putting us under house arrest? Xiao Cong was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick.

Old Lady Xiao stretched out his hand to stop him: "Cong'er." ”

Then he looked at Liu Shixin calmly, and said in a deep voice: "It's late at night, please go back to General Liu." ”

This is issuing an expulsion order, Liu Shixin pulled the corners of his mouth indifferently, and ordered loudly: "Everyone listens to the order, cheer up, and must not let people go out of the Xiao Mansion one step, even if it is a fly, they can't let it go." ”

The soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes." ”

After they walked out of the mansion gate, the Xiao Mansion guards quickly closed the door.

"Father, what should I do?" Master Xiao asked Old Lady Xiao.

Everyone also looked at Old Lady Xiao.

Old lady Xiao sighed: "What else can I do? If something happens outside the horizontal vertical, we can't help, so don't mix it blindly. Just stay in the house honestly, and when the wind and waves are calm, the dust will naturally settle. ”

With that, he went inside.

Several masters of the Xiao family looked at each other, and finally sighed helplessly and left.

Xiao Lingfeng turned around and left.

Xiao Cong shouted loudly behind him: "Eighth brother, where are you going?" ”

"Sleep."

Waiting for the boundary of the sixth room, Huo Yan asked in a low voice, "Master, can you sleep?" ”

"Can't sleep."

"Then you just told the eldest young master to come back to sleep?"

Xiao Lingfeng glanced at him: "If you don't say that, how else can I say it?" ”

Huo Yan choked and closed his mouth.

Xiao Lingfeng entered the room and took out a night suit from the cabinet to change into.

Huo Yan exclaimed: "Master, where are you going?" ”

Xiao Lingfeng's hands kept moving, and he said, "Go to Yang Mansion." ”

Huo Yan didn't speak anymore and went back to his room.

Xiao Lingfeng changed his clothes, and as soon as he left the room, a man in black ran over: "Master, I'll go with you." ”

This is Huo Yan.

But then, one, two, three... More than a dozen men in black ran out, "Master, I'll go with you too." ”

If he hadn't recognized their voices, Xiao Lingfeng would have been really frightened, and he thought that the guards of the Xiao Mansion were already so vulnerable that anyone could come in casually.

"Let's go."

Xiao Lingfeng gave an order, and everyone followed him quietly to the outside of the courtyard.

Under the cover of night, Xiao Lingfeng and the others quickly climbed over the wall, and when they waited for a proper shift change, they quietly avoided the guards outside and successfully slipped out of Xiao's mansion.
