Published at 6th of March 2023 05:56:38 AM

The mother's kindness and the son's filial piety that had been maintained for so many years were completely ruined by a few words only at this moment.

Yue Heng didn't move, he said, "Empress Mother, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is gone, you still have another son, who is also your hope, who will protect you well."

The emotion in the empress' eyes turned into surprise, and the expression on her face also turned into vigilance, "You, what do you want to do?"

Yue Heng spread his hands, "I won't do anything, and I don't want to do anything, oh, no, I don't want to be pushed out by the empress mother to be the crown prince's scapegoat."

"The son has been an invisible person in Changning Palace for so many years, the empress mother will satisfy the little request of the son, right?" Yue Heng looked at the empress with a smile.

The empress felt that Yue Heng's eyes frightened her. She opened her mouth, she wanted to ask Yue Heng if he knew everything, but she still didn't ask. If she completely broke her face today, Yue Heng would definitely choose to be the second child's helper to deal with her and the crown prince.

She didn't dare to bet.

The empress said weakly, "Since you don't want to, the empress mother won't force you, but don't forget that you and the crown prince are brothers from the same mother, one prospers all prospers, one loses all loses. If something happens to the crown prince, do you think you can still have a chance to survive?"

Yue Heng said: "As long as the son is not pushed to death by the empress mother herself, even if the son is killed by the rebels, he will not hold any resentment."

" The son will leave first," Yue Heng stretched out his hand and pointed behind her, then stepped past the empress and left.

The empress looked up and found that the crown prince had indeed arrived, but his clothes and face were stained with blood, and he was being supported by someone, he was obviously injured.

As soon as the crown prince appeared, the empress left Yue Heng behind in an instant, and walked quickly to the crown prince. The crown prince weakly called the empress, "The rebels invaded the East Palace, and the second child even arranged some killers. The son's people resisted desperately before the son could escape with their protections."

In addition to the two guards who supporting the crown prince, there were five people following behind, the empress, the empress asked him, "Is this the only people left?"

"Yes, even the son is almost..." The crown prince raised his arm to show the empress, and there was a long cut injury on his arm.

"Imperial doctor, Qiuxi, order someone to call the imperial doctor immediately!" Seeing the cut injury on the crown prince's arm, the empress's eyes turned red.     

The crown prince said: "Empress mother, please leave me alone, and quickly give an order to the commander of the imperial guards, tell him to guard the emperor father's bedroom. If something happens to the emperor father, the son and the empress mother will be completely finished."

The crown prince asked his own people to help him into the Changning Palace, and the empress was not allowed to follow.

The crown prince's injury had a great impact on the empress. She decided to take a risk and asked the commander of the imperial guards to transfer everyone to the outside of Changning Palace to protect her and the crown prince.

As for Emperor Changde, as long as the second prince dared to do something, he would be charged with patricide. Even if the second prince was lucky enough to ascend the throne, it would be difficult to convince the public, nd she and the crown prince could only have hope if they were alive.

The commander of the imperial guards refused to listen to the empress's order, saying that they belonged to the emperor, and their primary duty was to protect the emperor, while the empress and the crown prince could find other people to protect them.

The second prince was determined to seize the palace in one move tonight, and his subordinates were also bewitched. This was a good opportunity for them to make contributions, so they killed everyone they saw along the way. Not only the imperial guards but also the court ladies and eunuchs were killed and injured.

The situation was quite unfavorable to them, and the commander of the imperial guards directly told the empress that without reinforcements, none of them would be able to survive tonight.     

The empress' knees softened and she fell backwards. It was Qiuxi who quickly supported her, "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is still a way, there must be a way."

The commander of the imperial guards also gave advice to the empress, "Why don't you ask the Empress to ask Guojiu for help, maybe he can find a way."

Guojiu, Wei Yunzhao's name flashed subconsciously in the empress' mind. A few days ago, her brother asked her to ask Wei Yunzhao to be the commanding general. What did she say?

It seemed she said that she would never ask for help to that disabled person?     

She also vowed that she wouldn't regret it, the empress smiled sadly, she didn't expect this regret to come so quickly.     

She was the empress, and Wei Yunzhao was only a fifth-rank official. What she wanted Wei Yunzhao to do was a decree, and there was no need to beg for it at all, but she missed such a good opportunity, and now if she wanted Wei Yunzhao to do something, she really needed to beg.

The empress grabbed Qiuxi's arm with great force, and Qiuxi's face changed from the pain, but she still had to hold back and dare not to speak.

"Go, get someone to invite Bengong's elder brother into the palace immediately, and say that Bengong has something to ask for. If he can...if he can bring Wei Yunzhao into the palace, then...it will be even better."

The commander of the Imperial Guard heard Wei Yunzhao's name and there was a bit of joy on his face, and he said to the empress: "Your Majesty, if we can invite Mr. Wei to be the commander, our chances of winning will be greater. Mr. Wei is the best at surprise attacks, so it's no problem to win more with less."

The empress was not happy at all, and in the end she still had to beg Wei Yunzhao.
