Chapter 173: The Second Daughter Forced the Palace

Shi Jiu thought about it and felt that what Ripple said was right, if there were no these traversers, there would not be so much resentment, theoretically speaking, it was right to do so, after he put down this stubble, he directly changed the topic.

"The second daughter of the original body has almost gathered all the people, and now she is entering the capital in batches, aren't you ready for it?"

"What to prepare, she has the ability to kill me, the throne is naturally hers, if you don't have the ability, just wait to be imprisoned!"

Ripple threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box and said indifferently.

"My heart is so big!"

Three days later, Feng Di sent a flying eagle message, bringing back the news of the defeat of the Panlong Kingdom, and at the same time, the news that the second princess was entangled with the main generals of the Zhao family and was ready to force the palace when she returned to the capital to receive the reward.

Ripple was very calm, recruited the head of the phoenix, and asked her to arrange for someone to keep an eye on the commander of the Praetorian Guard, the last time Zhuo Xiuyuan rescued the driver, the second princess called the Praetorian Guard, and she also found out that the commander of the Praetorian Guard was supported by the Zhao family, which was a natural ally of the second princess.

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to prepare for the triumph of the army, the guards of the entire palace were replaced by the empress's personal guards, and everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

However, the virtuous servant who was in the palace sensed that something was wrong, and he endured it for two days, and finally went to see Ripples, and asked with a worried face:

"Empress, what's going on in the palace, don't hide it from me."

"It's not a big deal, it's just that some people are anxious and want to take my place."

Ripple said with a smile.

After hearing this, Xian Shijun's pupils shrank, and he said hurriedly:

"The empress, it will never be the third princess, she told me personally, she has no ability to sit in that position, and she has never thought about it."

"Ah Xian, I didn't say that it was the third princess, don't be in such a hurry."

Ripple hooked his lips and smiled, pushing the teacup in front of him in front of Xian Shijun, telling him not to worry.

Xian Shijun was a little embarrassed at this time, held the teacup steadily, and said firmly:

"I'm with you!"

"Good!"

Twenty days later, the army participating in the war arrived in the capital, and the second princess, who quietly returned three days in advance, had already joined the large army at this time, and after nodding to Zhao Li, she joined the team to return to the city and accepted the welcome of the people in the capital.

The 80,000 troops who returned with them did not enter the city, but camped thirty miles outside the city, waiting for the reward to be over, and then returned to the city where they had been stationed.

When the sun set, General Feng Ming suddenly appeared at the army garrison thirty miles away, holding an eagle talisman, mobilized 50,000 people to travel lightly, and went straight to the palace.

At this time, the palace banquet in the evening had begun, and Ripple sat in the first place, feasting the generals who returned triumphantly this time.

"You love to work hard, this time you can defeat the Panlong Kingdom in one fell swoop, tear off a piece of meat from them, everyone is indispensable, this emperor toasts you with this cup of wine!"

"Empress Xie!"

The generals got up, took the glass of wine, and after drinking it all, Ripple raised his glass again, and said with a solemn face:

"This cup of wine is a tribute to those soldiers who died in the war, they are the pride of my Fengqi country, after the reward is over, they will definitely be buried in the ground, and the tombstone will be built, so that future generations will always remember their sacrifice!"

"Always remember!"

Everyone responded in unison.

After two rounds of wine, the atmosphere of the palace banquet gradually became warmer, but the virtuous servant who had been sitting under the ripples did not touch a drop of wine, and he was always vigilant about everything around him.

With a "whoosh", an arrow shot in from outside the door of the main hall, heading straight for the ripples, and the virtuous servant immediately got up without hesitation, trying to block the sword with his body, but was pushed by the ripples and fell back into place, and the arrow grazed the ripples' earlobes, shattered an earring, and shot into the throne.

"Escort!"

A mezzo-soprano sounded in the hall, and all the generals who were pushing the cups and changing the lamps jumped up and touched their waists, but when they entered the hall, they all untied their swords.

At this time, the maid behind them quickly handed the sword back to the master's hand, and then she also held a short sword herself, and rushed to the throne, becoming the empress's first line of defense.

At this time, the eldest princess, the third princess, and the virtuous servant had all gathered in front of Ripples, all of them looked solemn, only Ripples' complexions were very calm, touched the empty earlobes, and said with some displeasure:

"This is the emperor's favorite cat's eye earrings, how can I destroy one."

"Mother, you're old! It's time to give way! ”

At this time, the second princess was dressed in armor and held a sharp sword, and under the protection of the Zhao family, she strode into the palace.

"What if I don't give up?"

Ripple asked lightly.

"The mother mother wrote the edict of abdication to me, you are the empress, and your status is respected, if you don't write it, don't blame me for not caring about the love of mother and daughter."

"Even if I write an edict of abdication, you won't let me live to see the sun on the second day, you want to kill the king, this is unfilial piety!

Because of your ambition, you united with the Panlong Kingdom to assassinate your third sister, put the group of dead soldiers into Zhuo Xiuyuan, and wanted to borrow a knife to kill people, but it turned out that the knife killed your father, which is unjust!

Those grain merchants who raised the price of grain were also put into Fengqi Country by the hands of Zhao Li, the border guard, and wanted to trap the people in dire straits, which is unkind!

What qualifications do you have for a person like you who is unfilial, unkind, unjust, virtuous, and incompetent! ”

Ripple's voice was cold and did not contain a trace of emotion, listing the crimes of the two princesses one by one, which surprised the generals in the hall, but they didn't expect that for the sake of the throne, this princess had already done this part.

"Shut up!"

The second princess's face was already swollen red, and it was the first time she had been reprimanded by her mother since she was a child.

"Second princess, don't be provoked by a few words, the sword is in our hands, and the outside of the palace is also our Zhao family's army, we must succeed today!"

Zhao Li squinted her eyes and whispered in the ear of the second princess.

"Heh, that's why I said you're stupid, even if you succeed in forcing the palace today, won't you be restrained? Outside the door is Zhao Jiajun, not Wu Jiajun. ”

Ripple sneered, directly drew his sword, injected the spiritual power of the third layer of qi refining into the sword body, and then swung the sword in front of everyone, only saying one word, "Kill!" ”

In the next moment, Zhao Li, who had won before, was directly split in half, and the moment the blood splashed away, the people around the second princess were overturned by a huge force, and the second princess was not spared.

After a short period of silence, the generals perked up, held the swords in their hands, and smashed into the Zhao family army on the opposite side like a charge.

The ripples emptied the aura, but it also shocked everyone, she looked indifferently at the second princess who raised her sword and struggled to resist, her eyes were full of disappointment, thinking that this one could hold on longer, but the result was so vulnerable.

The generals here escorted Wenchen to the empress's side, and the sound of fighting outside the hall had reached the ears of everyone in the hall, and the firelight lit up half of the sky.
