She originally did so because she was worried about her father, and would secretly enter his chambers.

  But unexpectedly heard such a conversation...

  They actually want to kill little brother!

  A petite figure, after making sure there was no one in the palace, crawled out from under the bed. She turned around and took a glance at her father lying on the dragon bed, his face old and gaunt. She bit her lip and quickly left through a secret passageway in the palace cabinet.

  Because she had liked to explore the palace since childhood, she inadvertently discovered this secret passage. Also because of this, she was able to sneak in and see her father, the Emperor.

  It's likely that Han Huanghou and Taizi Qin Jinxiu could never have imagined that their unutterable conversation would be overheard by Qin Yili.

  Rushing out of the secret passage, Qin Yiluan didn't have time to tidy up the dust on her skirt and ran towards the outside of the palace, with only one thought in mind - to tell that person everything she had heard and stop him from entering the palace!

  However, after running for a few steps, she suddenly stopped again, and a hint of uncertainty appeared in her clear and pure big eyes.

  Four palace gates, she is alone, she can't guard so many!

  The most important thing is, she can't get out!

  The queen not only prohibited outsiders from entering the palace but also restricted insiders from going out.

  What to do? What to do? What to do?

  That's right!

  She suddenly had an idea and thought of a solution.

  She knew that her imperial brother had arranged for top-notch protection by her side and the empress dowager's. She couldn't leave the palace, but this expert certainly could!

  As long as he goes out, finds the emperor's brother, and then goes to find that person to explain everything, it will be fine if he can stop him from coming to the imperial palace.

  But what if I miss it?

  She didn't have time to think much, she called out her own dark guard and ordered him to leave the palace. As for herself, she returned to her own bedroom, found her three most trusted inner servants, and with them divided into four roads hiding in the corners of the palace gate.

  Even if outsiders are unable to notify them in time, they can still sound an alarm at critical moments.

  She put on a cloak that blended with the night, and chose the North Palace Gate. There was a voice in her heart that seemed to be telling her, guarding here, she would not regret it.

  ……

  That night, Luo Du fell into a deep sleep like a trapped beast in hibernation.

  The streets were empty, without a single soul. The heavy buildings, like the ferocious claws of beasts, were freely unleashed in the darkness of night.

  Outside the city, the common people slept peacefully, unaware of the difference tonight.

  Inside the city, behind each closed gate, hid courtiers and nobles with their own thoughts.

  The courtyard, a sudden gust of wind at night, blew the lanterns under the eaves swaying constantly.

  In the tightly closed room, candlelight flickered, and it was clear that the people inside had not rested.

  Inside the house, Mu Xiong wore a suit of black clothes and silver armor, majestic and powerful. Mu Lianrong also wore a military uniform, elegant and refreshing.

  She went forward and filled up his teacup after seeing her father finish drinking the tea in it.

  She put down the teapot and said with some worry: "Father, are we going to let Qing Ge take risks alone?"

  Mo Xiong's expression remained unchanged as he said, "Don't worry. She'll be fine. We just need to follow her plan and everything will be alright."

  "The great army has gathered and is waiting, once the time comes, they will enter the city. But what if Light Song rushes into the palace and startles those old guys?" Mu Lianrong was still worried.

  At this mention, Mu Xiong's eyebrows slightly raised.

  In the national protection ritual of Qin, among those he knew, there was one Violet Realm, five Blue Realms, and the rest were all Peak Qing Realms. To resist with just his granddaughter's power alone was indeed somewhat unwise.

  But however

  Putting down the teacup, Mu Xiong said: "Those people will only appear when the country is destroyed or someone overthrows the Qin dynasty. They won't come out for a struggle for the throne like this. As Song Er said, our Mu family is just clearing the way for the emperor, and the emperor of the Qin state still has the surname Qin. The old Mu family isn't interested in the imperial throne."

  When Mu's father and daughter were discussing, Mu Qingge had already set off at the agreed time with Qin Jinghuan.

  She will lead five hundred imperial guards to take the lead, after breaking through a palace gate, welcome Qin Jingxuan into the palace and go straight to Huanglong.

  It wasn't until the plan was set in motion that she found out that Qin Jing had secretly maintained a private army of 50,000 to 60,000 men. These private troops were created with the collective strength of the Jiang clan, but to Mu Qing Ge, they were nothing special.

  Muo Xiong secretly cultivated an army of 100,000 elite soldiers in the dark, becoming a trump card for the Muo family without causing them to suffer any losses.

  Even at this time, he also had to support the Mu family army in Yizhou.

  It's not that the Mu family is richer than the Jiang family, but rather that Mu Xiong is more capable of leading troops. In essence, the Qianlie Army has not increased the burden on the Mu family, but instead will send some spoils of war to Yi City to supply the Mu family army while fighting to feed the fight.

  So, whether it's Mu Jiajun or Qian Liejun, neither of them can be compared to the group of pampered troops brought out by Qin Jianhao.

  Mochi Song rode on Hei Yan's back, thinking of Qin Jingyu's self-satisfied appearance before departure, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. 'Continue to be proud, when you fall off at the closest point to your dreams, it will be the most unforgettable.'

  Five hundred imperial guards, led by Mo Yang, slowly arrived at the palace gate with Mu Qing.

  The tightly closed palace gates, the towering palace walls, are eerily quiet.

  Mocheng Ge rode the black smoke horse, which was pacing back and forth with some restlessness, its hooves echoing continuously on the street. The spiritual beast, compared to ordinary wild beasts, had a stronger sense of crisis awareness. This smoke horse king seemed to have already sensed the approaching danger and was warning its master to be cautious.

  Mo Yang walked a few steps forward and came to Mu Qing Ge's side, saying in a low voice: "Young Master, it seems like there's something fishy going on. Do you want to change locations?"

  Mo Qingge slightly raised her chin, gazing at the signboard on the palace wall, narrowing her eyes and slowly shaking her head: "The other palace gates are the same, why bother changing?"

  Suddenly, she raised a sly smile and said in a low voice: "It's only interesting this way." If Qin Jinyu didn't take the bait, she would be the one to feel a headache.

  Mo Qing has already understood the meaning of Wu Xiang's words.

  He beckoned with one hand, and immediately a group of Dragon Tooth Guards stepped forward, ready to force open the palace gates.

  The guards near the palace gate have been withdrawn, and the tightly closed palace gate is not waiting for them to break in on their own initiative.

  Rui Wang and the Crown Prince both want a good reputation, they need to make a name for themselves when they go out, but she doesn't.

  Bang Bang! Bang!

  The heavy palace gate was violently broken open by the Dragon Tooth Guard.

  The shattered gate lay scattered on the ground, but it also exposed what was behind it.

  In the stillness, it seems to exude a dead air.

  There is a chill in the air.

  Mo Qing took a deep breath, and the corners of her mouth curved into a sharp arc. She sniffed out the hidden killing intent in the air, which was concealed extremely well, but unfortunately, she was all too familiar with it.

  Behind the palace gate lies a vast square. The square is surrounded by high walls on all sides, with only two gates and staircases leading up to the city wall.

  At this moment, one of the doors had been damaged, while another door connecting the palace corridor was open.

  As if it were a monster's huge mouth, luring people in.

  Darkness enveloped her here, and she seemed to hear the heartbeats of those clinging to the inner side of the stairs, nestled in the city walls.

  She licked her seductive red lips, and Mu Qing's eyes had a hint of bloodthirstiness.

  "Little Master." Moye came to Mu Qing's side and asked for instructions.

  "Go in."

  Knowing it's a trap, still jumping in.

  If it weren't for Longyawei's absolute obedience and trust in Mù Qīnggē, someone might have retreated by now.

  Yanma, carrying the unique aura of a spiritual beast, carried its master slowly into the broken palace gates. In the square, it seemed as if only Yanma's breathing and hoofbeats were wandering around.

  The Dragon Tooth Guards were silent and stern, seemingly oblivious to their surroundings, but in reality, they were paying close attention to every move around them.

  Red cloak and black armor, a dark cloud-like cape hangs down. The breathing of 500 people is at the same frequency. Each one is spaced out, almost identical.

  They followed closely behind Mu Qingge, who was clad in a crimson robe and silver armor. His sharp eyes gleamed like an eagle's, his killing intent surging forth, almost obscuring the air thick with murderous aura.

  Every step they took was extremely slow, as if on purpose.

  Those who were waiting in secret also felt that the days were passing slowly, and the long wait made their hands holding weapons tremble slightly.

  "Don't! Don't come in! Leave quickly!"

  Suddenly, a shrill voice pierced through the night sky and came, breaking the eerie silence in this palace gate.

  Mu Qingge furrowed her eyebrows and looked towards the direction of the Yongdao.

  A figure draped in a black cloak was rushing towards her, uttering urgent words that seemed to be a warning.

  It was just an instant, and that person rushed out of the corridor, like a butterfly in the night color, into the square. The distance between him and Mu Qingge seemed to be within arm's reach, but in fact, it was separated by a square.

  In a daze, Mu Qing saw what seemed like an eager and anxious smile under the windbreaker.

  Suddenly——！

  A cyan-blue arrow shot out with a sharp whistling sound, piercing through space and aiming straight at the person's back.

  Dazzling light, especially prominent in the night colors.

  Originally lounging lazily on the back of Hei Yan, Mu Qing Ge suddenly sat up straight, without any hesitation, leapt off the horse and rushed towards that person.

  But in the end, she was still one step too late.

  At the moment she just jumped up, the sharp arrowhead pierced through that person's body, with blood beads falling on the ground in front.

  The sudden change left the person still in a running motion. The black cloak fell silently, revealing her true appearance —

  "Ah——!" Unexpectedly, shock and other emotions suddenly gripped Mu Qingge's heart, her pupils shrinking violently as she suddenly appeared in front of Qin Yilian, catching the body that had flung itself forward.

  "How could it be you?" Mu Qingge held Qin Yilian in his arms, his eyes filled with incredulity and a hint of panic.

  Everything came too quickly.

  From the moment she entered the palace gate until Qin Yili appeared, it was just a matter of seconds.

  Even before she had time to react, her appearance had already changed the course of events.

  She never thought that the person who reminded her to speak out would be Princess Yonghuan Qin Yili, a girl as simple as water and clean as paper in her heart.

  A girl she didn't want to destroy, didn't want to hurt.

  And this girl, at this moment, lay weakly in his arms.

  "Little brother, you're too lucky." Qin Yileng's mouth corner overflowed with bloodstains, and the chest-sized hole had already dyed her skirt red.

  However, she seemed to have felt nothing at all, only looking at Mu Qing's face with a relieved smile.

  "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

  Qin Yilian's intrusion led to the failure of the ambush.

  The ambushers who had been waiting for a long time all rushed out at this moment.

  Mu Qing's eyes sank, her entire body radiating intense anger. She held Qin Yiliang in her left arm and flipped her right hand over. A dazzling light burst forth from her hand, transforming the exquisite finger guards into a delicate gun that she grasped firmly.

  "Kill! Not a single one left." The icy voice flowed from her mouth like the summons of the death god from hell.

  The Dragon Tooth Guards suddenly rushed out and harvested enemies in different directions.

  Suddenly, green light and cyan light illuminated the entire palace gate.

  Longya Guard, unexpectedly all of them are high-ranking masters in the Green and Blue Realms. However, their age is younger than that of the Qing Realm warriors from the Butcher Country.

  The scene was truly shocking. Many people hadn't even had time to react before their lives were taken away.

  Mù Qīng Gē grasped the Ling Lóng Spear, its tip fiercely stabbing into the ground.

  In an instant, a wave of air burst forth from the barrel, blocking and repelling all enemies charging towards her, turning them into bloody mist in mid-air.

  Countless enemies kept pouring in, and Mu Qing Ge coldly ordered Mo Yang: "Those who get close, kill!"

  Mo Yang gave an order, and the Dragon Teeth Guard formed a circle around Mu Qing Ge and Qin Yi Lian, protecting them in the center, strangling anyone who approached.

  Five hundred realms of green and blue, such strength is beyond imagination.

  For a time, tens of thousands of ambushers were unable to break through this solid barrier.

  In the midst of chaos, the place where Mu Qing Ge was located was a pure land.

  "Lianlian, why did you come... I won't be able to save you..." For the first time, Mu Qingge's eyes revealed a pained expression.

  She can't save her, can't save!

  Even if she had the Dan God inheritance, had the Mo Mo's reverse space, had the Linglong divine artifact, and had the remaining genetic modification agent, she still couldn't save Qin Yiliang.

  Because her heart had already been shattered by that arrow.

  At this moment, she can still maintain her consciousness, completely because of Mu Qing's spiritual power support.

  Qin Yilian's appearance was completely beyond expectations, leaving Mu Qingge caught off guard, without even a chance to salvage the situation.

  "I... I heard the Queen and the Crown Prince say... they said they wanted to kill you... so I came..." Qin Yiluan said with a smile, as she spoke, blood and flesh fragments kept gushing out.

  "I knew... I knew... you shouldn't have come!" Mu Qingge hugged Qin Yiliang's hand, tightening it slowly, her guilty emotions making her want to kill.

  Qin Yilian was innocent, but because of her death, what should she do?

  This innocent and lovely little princess shouldn't have died like this...

  Qin Yilian smiled, her white teeth stained with blood: "Lian Lian is so lucky to have met little brother. But little brother, I'm so sleepy now, it seems like I'm going to sleep."

  She said, with a tear rolling down from the corner of her eye.

  This girl, she was very clear in her mind what would be waiting for her.

  Mocheng Ge's throat suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that she couldn't speak. All she could do was desperately channel spiritual energy into Qin Yilian.

  "Little brother, what a pity. Lianlian can't dance for little brother anymore, Lianlian has practiced for a long time." Qin Yilian's pure big eyes had a hint of reluctance, with some nostalgia in her gaze as she outlined Mu Qingge's face.

  "What should I do?" Mu Qingge kept asking in her heart.

  "Meng Meng! Is there any way you can save her life?" In desperation, she could only place all her hopes on Meng Meng.

  Meng Meng's voice quickly echoed in her mind, but it wasn't the answer she wanted.

  "I'm sorry, Master. Her heart is already broken. Even if the previous master was still here, he couldn't save her. If you want to keep her by force, you can only use puppetry to turn her into a puppet."

  Puppet?

  An empty shell devoid of thought and soul, more unbearable than death itself.

  How could she bear to turn Lianlian into such an existence?

  Mù Qīng gē huǎn huǎn bì shàng shuāng yǎn, jǐn mò de shuāng chún qīng qīng de dào: "Lián lián, nǐ kě yǒu shén me wèi liǎo de xīn yuàn?"

  Translation:

  Mù Qīng's song slowly closed her eyes, and her tightly pursed lips lightly said: "Lianlian, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"

  She couldn't stop Lianlian from leaving, so she could only reduce her regret.

  "My wish... I have many wishes. But my biggest wish is to become Xiao Gege's wife, but now it seems impossible." Qin Yilian said with a smile, her eyes filled with longing.

  Mo Qing's heart tightened at Qin Yilian's response, which was unexpected yet seemed reasonable.

  Now she is a man!

  The smile in my heart is somewhat pale.

  Mu Qing Ge forced out a smile, opened her eyes, and looked at her with a gaze that was full of adoration. In an extremely gentle and soft voice, he said: "Alright, I'll marry you as my wife."

  "Really?" Qin Yileng's eyes lit up, radiating a captivating charm.

  He gently touched his forehead to hers, lowered his head, and his lips fell on her forehead with a light kiss.

  A kiss filled with pity, made Qin Yilian burst out a touching smile. "I'm so happy, thank you little brother." With satisfaction, she slowly closed her eyes, tightly grasping Mu Qing's sleeve with her small hand, also powerless to let go.

  Mo Qing's crazy input of spiritual energy into Qin Yilian's body was like throwing a stone into the ocean, with no response.

  Qin Yilian, is it just like this and you're gone?

  That noisy little princess who wanted to invite her to eat sugar, dance for her to see, and teach her to fly a kite just left like that?

  A hard-to-solve emotion rose in Mu Qing's heart and turned into a raging fire.

  She slowly laid down Qin Yilian and stood up with Linglong spear in hand.

  Noticing her movements, Mo Yang immediately came to her side, his body radiating a thick, cyan light.

  "Little Master!"

  "Don't let her get hurt again." Mu Qing Ge instructed lightly. Her exquisite and delicate features were cold and sharp, making people dare not look directly at her.

  Mo Yang nodded silently and personally retreated to guard beside Qin Yili's body.

  Mocheng Ge grasped the Linglong spear and mounted the black smoke horse, carrying a cold and fierce killing intent, charging out of the protective circle formed by the Longya guards.

  She ignored those vulnerable enemy troops and directly targeted the Qingjing Peak expert who shot arrows at Qin Yilian.

  Being locked onto by Mu Qing's gaze, the person standing on the palace wall felt a chill in his heart. The bow and arrow in his hand naturally rose up. And at the same time, three people appeared on either side of him. All six of them had a faint blue glow emanating from their bodies, as if they had just entered the Blue Realm not long ago.

  Six blue boundary initial stages, one green boundary peak, such an array, placed here, is enough to make the various forces of a third-rate country look sideways.

  However, Mu Qing's eyes didn't have a single ripple, calm to the point of being terrifying.

  "Kill him!" The man holding the bow and arrow was surprisingly the leader. He coldly gave an order, and the sharp arrow in his hand had already wrapped itself in a cyan-blue glow spinning towards Mu Qing Ge.

  Six blue-clothed figures simultaneously jumped down from the palace wall and rushed towards Mu Qing Ge.

  It seems that several people are planning to gang up on her alone.

  A loud, mournful cry echoed through the air as a layer of ripples-like aura burst forth from her dark fur, blocking the six people's attack. The arrow flying towards Mu Qing Ge also disintegrated into fragments before her eyes.

  This scene shocked seven people.

  The archer narrowed his eyes and fired three more arrows in succession, taking Mu Qingge's vitals from different angles.

  The other six people also cooperated with him and launched a new attack on Mu Qingge.

  Her eyes, which had been lightly cast down, suddenly lifted up. Her clear and cold eyes seemed to have a layer of frost on them. The Linglong spear in her right hand was held level, and a bright blue light burst out from her body, covering all the lights at the palace gate.

  "He is the pinnacle of Blue Boundary!"

  "It's actually Blue Boundary Peak!"

  "How is it possible? How old is he this year? Hasn't he just come of age?"

  "Ten months ago, he was just at the initial stage of Green Boundary!"

  A shocking voice came out of seven mouths.

  This dazzling purple-blue light not only shocked them, but also stunned others. Those who wanted to take Mu Qing's life were stunned on the spot, and Longyawei took advantage of it to harvest many lives again.

  At this moment, a common voice echoed in their hearts: 'If we had known that Mu Qingge was the peak of Blue Boundary, how could he have come here to seek death!'

  Blue light, as if pouring out through Mu Qing's eyes, dyed her clear and cold pupils blue.

  The original killing field suddenly turned around.

  What was thought to be a sure win is now on shaky ground.

  Mo Qing didn't want to hear any more nonsense from them. At this moment, the anger in her heart urgently needed a vent.

  Linglong spear swept across, bringing up a dazzling blue light.

  After the blue light passed, where were the six people's shadows? They really died without even leaving any residue.

  The man holding a bow on the palace wall has great fear in his eyes.

  Fear spread from the bottom of his heart, he wanted to run... wanting to escape from here.

  However, he found that his body seemed to be fixed in place and couldn't move.

  With just one move, he killed six high-ranking Blue Boundary First Stage experts. Mu Qing Ge pointed the sharp tip of his spear at the palace wall.

  She wanted him to pay his life for Qin Yilian.

  A crushing weight like a mountain, sharp as a knife, suddenly descended upon him.

  That feeling, almost crushed his bones inch by inch. His hands trembled and could no longer hold the bow. The bent bow fell from the palace wall, but broke inch by inch in his shocked eyes.

  The bow that had accompanied him for most of his life snapped, and in that instant, his life seemed to have been drained of half its vitality, leaving him staring blankly, his heart aching as if being strangled.

  Just then, before he could even clear his head from the anger of having his bow broken, an even greater suction force enveloped him entirely, pulling and tugging him into mid-air towards Mu Qing.

  He panicked and waved his hands, looking up at that exquisite and delicate face, which was so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether it was male or female. He felt that the icy chill in those eyes had frozen him solid, unable to move.

  "No——!" A shrill cry of despair squeezed out from his mouth.

  He lost control of his body and was lifted by Mochizuki Kako with her left hand alone.

  His neck was pinched, his face turned red, and he had difficulty breathing.

  But he couldn't muster up even a bit of resistance.

  Mù Qīng Gē's right hand shone with a flash of light, and the Líng Lóng Spear transformed back into a finger sleeve, encasing her right index finger.

  She indifferently turned her gaze, her icy eyes falling on him, without saying a word. The sharp tip of her finger sleeve lightly scratched his chest, and the clothes on his body suddenly burst open, revealing his robust upper body.

  "What are you doing! What are you doing!"

  His eyes bulged out, looking at Mu Qingge with extreme horror. However, his throat couldn't produce a single sound.

  Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

  He strained his eyes to take a closer look, only to discover that Mu Qing had carved out a deep wound on his left chest, exposing the bone. And his still-beating heart was being slowly pulled out.

  Physical pain is nothing compared to mental fear.

  He watched as his own heart was slowly pulled out, and yet he could have given himself a quick death, but instead chose to torture himself like this.

  His own blood stained his bare upper body. He felt the flow of life, felt the difficulty of breathing, and even the disappearance of body temperature...

  "Hmph!" A harsh sound came from his throat.

  In his last consciousness, he only remembered Mu Qing's song as if it were a bloodthirsty devil, terrifying.

  Bang!

  A heart that beats, in the gentle singer's midst, bursts into a blood flower and turns into a bloody mist. He witnessed with his own eyes the shattering of his heart and personally experienced the cruelty of Mu Qing's song...

  As Mochida threw down the corpse without a heart, Ryūga also finished off the others and gathered around her.

  Mo Yang quickly handed over a clean white silk cloth, Mu Qingge took it and carefully wiped the remaining blood stains between his fingers.

  All around them were layers of corpses, tens of thousands of people ambushing, not only failed but also completely destroyed, and even the dragon tooth guard's fur was not damaged.

  As Mo Qing wiped his hands, Mu Ye glanced around and said in a low voice, "If they use arrows first, although the outcome is hard to change, it will also increase some difficulty for us."

  "Because they are confident in their ten thousand men, they can easily swallow us up." Mu Qingge threw down the blood-stained handkerchief and dismounted his horse to walk beside Qin Yili.

  Mo Yang protected her very well and didn't let her get hurt again, not even a little bit dirty.

  Just as he squatted down and held Qin Yilian in his arms, Mu Qingge heard the urgent footsteps coming from the broken palace gate.

  Longyawei suddenly went on high alert, and Mù Qīnggē also turned around to look.

  When she saw a familiar yellowish color, the coldness in her eyes faded slightly. She ordered Longyawei to step aside.

  "Yilian——!" Qin Jincheng's eyes immediately fell on Qin Yilian, who was being held in Mu Qingge's arms.

  Suddenly——, his face turned pale, transparent to the point of almost shattering at any moment. He stumbled forward with the support of an old man with silver hair.

  When he saw the smile still on Qin Yili's face, he closed his eyes in pain and said, "I'm late, I'm late."

  He was immersed in the grief of Qin Yili's death, while the old man beside him was shocked by the piles of corpses around him, as well as those dragon teeth guards who were like gods of death.

  Murong Qingge hugged Qin Yilian and stood up, handing her over to Qin Jincheng: "Take her away. After everything is done, I will come to pick her up."

  Qin Jincheng raised his eyes and looked at her, with heartache and inquiry in his clear black and white eyes.

  "I promised Lianlian that I would marry her." Mu Qingge explained.

  Qin Jincheng's eyes flashed with shock, but he quickly calmed down. He said to the old man beside him: "Gu Shi, instruct someone to bring Princess Yonghuan back to Xianwang Fu. Then send someone to pick up Yun Fei Niangniang, and you take the remaining people to follow Young Master, listening to his orders."

  Mo Qing sang glanced at him and did not refuse his arrangement.

  She also guessed that this silver-haired old man was the strong one beside Qin Jincheng, and it was he who had secretly escorted her back to Yicheng in the past.

  She knew that Qin Jincheng originally wanted to stand by and watch, but now Qin Yiluan's death had changed his mind. Letting Gu Shi follow him meant he was officially getting involved in this matter.

  Qin Yilian's body followed Qin Jincheng and left.

  Mù Qīng Gē ordered the Longyá Wèi to quickly clean up the battlefield, and only then did he order Mò Yáng to release the signal that had been agreed upon with Ruì Wáng.

  "Gu Shi." Mu Qing Ge suddenly exclaimed.

  The old man with silver hair immediately stepped forward.

  Her gaze fell on him, and she said faintly: "Trouble you to have the people with Xian Wang secretly keep an eye on the Crown Prince and the Empress, lest they run away. These people I will send them all to accompany Yonghuan in burial."

  Mu Qing's cold and detached order made Gu Shi glance at her, but he didn't say anything more.

  He nodded and led the people away.

  Not long after Gu Shi left with his men, Qin Jingxuan arrived with his own men, clad in black armor.

  He rode on his horse, looking at the bloody footprints inside the palace gate, and couldn't help but feel shocked. At this moment, no corpses could be seen, but judging from the bloodstains, it must have been a fierce battle.

  But Mu Qingge was riding on horseback, intact and unscathed, not only her but also the people under her command were completely unharmed. Such a terrifying combat power left him shocked, and also filled with intense envy and jealousy.

  But he was even more confident about tonight's matter.

  "Qing Ge, are you not hurt? Don't worry, once I ascend to the throne, I will definitely avenge today's injustice for you." Qin Jinghao concealed his inner joy and assured Mu Qingge.

  Mu Qingge smiled with a raised lip: "For Rui Wang's great cause, what does this little thing count for?"

  This sentence, as if let Qin Jinghuan find the familiar feeling again. It seems that Mu Qingge's attitude towards him should be like this.

  He nodded in satisfaction and ordered everyone to rush into the palace.

  Night, tranquility was broken.

  Chaos in the palace.

  Inside Cixiang Palace, the palace gate is closed tightly.

  The empress dowager, who should have been resting early, was now sitting in a chair, twirling Buddhist beads in her hand, closing her eyes and murmuring to herself.

  In the vast and empty hall, the distant sounds of commotion from outside the palace could be faintly heard.

  The eunuch standing beside the empress dowager, with a hint of urgency in his expression, asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, are you not going to show your face yet? Now that the emperor is seriously ill, if you continue to remain silent, the situation will change."

  The empress's face sank slightly, the movement of her fingers twisting the Buddhist beads suddenly stopped, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her voice was cold and stern: "Let them make trouble if they want to. I also want to see which one of these brothers is more suitable for that position."

  "But, however, Your Majesty is still here." The imperial nurse hastily said.

  The empress dowager's eyes twitched violently at the corners, and she pursed her lips without speaking.

  She's no fool, the queen doesn't let anyone see the emperor, which can only mean the emperor won't last much longer. At this moment, if she intervenes, neither side will be pleased.

  It's better to wait and see what happens rather than taking action now.

  Anyway, no matter who ascends to the throne, she is still the Empress Dowager, and this fact cannot be changed by anyone.

  Her eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

  Her choice really proved the old saying: 'There is no true love in an imperial family.'

  In this deep palace, everyone's heart has been distorted, only caring about themselves and power.

  Hearing the old lady's resolute tone, Nanny could only sigh and retreat silently to one side.

  Before long, the Cixiang Palace was heavily guarded by soldiers, and no one could enter or leave. It was not just the Cixiang Palace that was like this, but also several other important places where key figures lived.

  Longya Wei was extremely ferocious and entered the imperial palace as if no one was there.

  Even though the queen and the crown prince had made preparations early on, they were still shaken by this withering atmosphere.

  Qin Jinhao closely followed Mu Qingge, and unexpectedly picked up a huge bargain.

  At this time, the chaos in the imperial palace had reached a climax. Meanwhile, Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong also quietly left the mansion, disappearing without a trace.

  Inside the imperial palace, outside a secluded palace, two groups of people are confronting each other.

  On one side was the empress with her entourage, while on the other were Rui Wang and Mu Qing Ge. Crown Prince Qin Jin Yu was nowhere to be seen at this moment.

  "Qin Jinhuang, are you going to rebel? How dare you bring people into the palace!" The empress was surrounded by guards at the gate of the palace, sternly questioning Rui Wang.

  Rui Wang stood before the crowd, gripping his treasured sword tightly. He sneered at Queen Han's inquiry: "Father is gravely ill, yet you won't let me, as a son, pay my respects. I'd like to ask, what exactly do you want? Just days ago, it was announced that Father was dissatisfied with the Crown Prince, and then suddenly fell ill. Now, I suspect you've colluded with the Crown Prince to imprison Father, intending to commit nefarious deeds. Unwillingly, for Father's safety, I had no choice but to storm the palace. Tonight's events are all your doing; what right do you have to speak of me?"

  "Hmph, you're being unreasonable! The Emperor's illness is not suitable for visits, I'm just following the doctor's orders." Empress Han said coldly.

  "Isn't it improper to pay a visit? If Huan'er can't see Your Majesty, why can't I either? The Empress is Your Majesty's wife, am I not as well? Or is it that the imperial physician said only the Empress and the Crown Prince are allowed to see Your Majesty, while anyone else would aggravate Your Majesty's condition?" A sharp voice cut in.

  Mu Qingge, who had retreated to one side to watch the play, turned around and saw that Princess Jiang was approaching with a gentle smile amidst the crowd.

  She is still charming and alluring, with a demeanor of elegance. Yet, compared to before, she has added a few more degrees of coldness and sharpness, and... an excitement of having the upper hand.

  "Your Majesty." Seeing her appear, Rui Wang hastily paid his respects. He embodied the virtue of filial piety perfectly.

  "Hao'er, I'm sorry. Empress Jiang walked over and grasped Qin Jianhao's hand, full of heartache."

  "This is what your son should do. For the safety of the emperor, even if your son is scolded by people all over the world, so be it?"

  "You're a good child, your father will be proud of you." Consort Jiang said with relief.

  The two people's flirtatious behavior not only made Queen Han's face even darker, but also made Mu Qingge almost vomit.

  "That's enough! His Majesty is seriously ill, and you're taking advantage of this to force him to abdicate. If such a treacherous act were to spread, the people of Qin would not forgive you. I advise you to retreat quickly and stop being so stubborn." Empress Han said.

  Qin Jinhao and Jiang Guifei exchanged a glance, with cold smiles in their hearts.

  Will you still give up at this point? How naive.

  "Take action!" Qin Jinhao's eyes turned cold, his voice filled with a fierce killing intent.

  At his command, the generals behind him rushed out and clashed with Empress Han's men.

  Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Qin Jinhao's heart grew more and more proud. 'Qingge was right! History books are all written by the victors, for great accomplishments, what need is there to pay attention to trivial matters? A great man should be ruthless when necessary, killing these people, who else would know about tonight's events?'

  The people around the Queen of Han were outnumbered by Qin Jingxuan's men, and with Longyawei occasionally striking a blow on the side, the outcome was quickly decided.

  The Empress Han was thrown down at the feet of Concubine Jiang and Qin Jingyu in a sorry state.

  She propped herself up with both hands, raised her head to look at the two of them coldly and sneered: "You think that by killing me, you can ascend to that position? I'm telling you, don't even think about it. Don't forget, my son is the rightful and legitimate crown prince!"

  "Is Her Majesty referring to this person?" Mu Qing Ge suddenly spoke with a playful tone.

  As her words fell, Qin Jinxiu with disheveled hair and clothes was thrown out and landed beside the empress.

  That wretched appearance seemed to be seriously injured. Even the tendons of his hands and feet were severed by someone, becoming a useless person.

  "Xiu Er! Xiu Er!" As soon as Qin Jiu Xiu appeared, Empress Han threw herself into his arms, wailing loudly.

  However, Qin Jinyu could only painfully make a "Woo Woo" sound. It was then that Empress Han discovered that the tongue of this Prince of Qin had also been cut off.

  "What have you done to Xiuzi!" The Empress Han's eyes were wide with rage as she charged forward, but was kicked in the abdomen by someone beside her and doubled over in pain.

  Qin Jinxiu's miserable state brought joy to Qin Jinhao and Jiang Guifei. Seeing the once high-and-mighty Han Empress now lying at their feet like a dead dog made them feel even more refreshed and invigorated.

  "Quickly! Quickly! Summon the imperial physician!" Empress Han was at a loss, watching Qin Yujian in agony. She had clearly instructed him to sneak out of the palace and reunite with the Han family before returning. Why did it end up like this?

  "Royal physician? Hmph, the Empress Dowager still doesn't understand her current situation?" The mocking remark was made by Concubine Jiang, who had been at odds with her for a lifetime.

  Qin Jin Huan and Jiang Guifei were overjoyed at this moment, and Mu Qing Ge's eyes became even more playful.

  "She sneered: 'Your Majesty the Empress, it seems that His Highness the Crown Prince wants to abandon you and escape from the palace. You say, if he has done nothing wrong, why would he want to escape? Helpless, we can only let him calm down for a while.'"

  Qin Jinxiu wants to run? It depends on whether she agrees or not.

  "You! You heartless thing! Your family, the Mu, is in cahoots with them, plotting to overthrow and usurp the throne! You will not die a good death!" The only hope in her heart was shattered, and countless venomous words spewed from the mouth of Empress Han.

  "Thanks for the reminder, Your Majesty. However, I only wish to live life to the fullest and don't have time to worry about what happens after death. How I die is of no concern to you either."

  After she finished speaking, she stepped aside. Well, let's continue watching the show.

  Qin Jinghao took a step forward, his cold eyes fixed on Empress Han as he ordered: "Guards, the empress and the crown prince are plotting to rebel against Your Majesty. In the process of saving you, they insisted on resisting and unfortunately died!"

  One sentence severed their mother-son life and death.

  The Empress's eyes were filled with hatred, staring fixedly at Qin Jinhao and Concubine Jiang, as if she wanted to bite into their flesh.

  Qin Jinxiu was no exception, but his eyes still showed a strong sense of unwillingness.

  Chaos knife falls, Mu Qingge's mouth corners rise. Seeing Han Huanghou and Qin Jingxiu being hacked to death by chaos knife with her own eyes, she is very satisfied with this ending.

  But this account is not settled yet...
