On the way back to the Central Plains, she would sit in the carriage for a while and ride on the white horse that her master, Su Chang, had given her.
There was also General Feng Qiao and General Hong Xiaoyu, who were protecting each other.
In less than half a month, they would arrive at the capital.
As soon as he entered the city gate, a eunuch came over to announce the decree.
"The daughter of the Lao family should receive the edict!"
He and the generals knelt down to receive the edict.
"I haven't seen the daughter of the Lao family for a long time. I'll immediately enter the palace to meet the emperor.”
The eunuch walked over and said to Yi Shishi,"Miss Yi Shishi, His Majesty has already invited Third Lady Yi into the palace." Please follow me into the palace.”
It was a little strange at the moment. Why did she announce the imperial edict to let her and her mother meet in the palace as soon as she returned to the capital?
Besides, wasn't her mother sick?
Just as Shi Yi was about to enter the palace, the eunuch who came to announce the edict blocked in front.
"His Majesty only announced the decree to one person. The others waited outside the palace. There was no imperial edict. No entry!"
General Fengqiao and General Xiaoyu were very worried. However, they only had two thousand soldiers. There were at least 20,000 guards at the city gate.
Shishi walked forward.
"Don't worry, sisters. If anything happens, I'll send a message in time. Moreover, my Lao family is a prestigious family. Nothing will happen to us.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he followed the eunuch into the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, he realized that something was wrong.
The commander of the guards in the palace had been changed.
Her father-in-law did not bring her to meet the Emperor, but only to the Western Courtyard.
They had just entered the Western courtyard of the palace. Her mother was the Third Lady. Then, he walked up to her.
"Shi Yi, why are you back?"
Shishi was surprised to see his mother.
"Mother, didn't you say that she was seriously ill? Do you want me to come back quickly?"
The Third Lady cursed. Then, he sighed deeply.
"Let's go in and talk."
As soon as they entered the room, the door was immediately closed.
"Mother, what happened?”
"Great General Liu Yuan and Great Eunuch Zhao Teng. They controlled the Emperor and the Imperial Court. The ministers and prominent families in the palace were all imprisoned in the palace.”
Shishi was shocked. At the same time, she was a little puzzled.
"I'm just a powerless woman. Why did you go through so much trouble to trick me back from the Northern Territory?”
The Third Lady sighed and said,"It's all because of your two masters. Sigh, it was mainly because of the Lord of Northern Mountains, Su Chang. Zhao Teng and Liu Yuan were very afraid of him. I'm using you to restrain them."
Shishi sat in front of the table, worried.
"Mother, where's uncle? Isn't Uncle the current Imperial Tutor?"
"Your uncle has already resigned and retired. If he had not resigned, he would have been killed long ago.”
At this time, my heart suddenly turned cold.
"Mother, can I think of a way to send a message to General Feng Qiao and General Xiaoyu outside the palace? Tell them to find a way to inform my master, Lord Northpeak.”
The Third Lady frowned.
"The Northern Territory is at least half a month away from here. How could they make it in time? Moreover, Su Chang, the King of Northern Peaks. Although he is your master in name. However, he was an official of the Great Zhou Dynasty. How could he dare to raise an army?”
"Definitely! "Mother," she hurriedly said,"Master is very good to me, really!”
He pulled his mother to a corner. He quietly leaned against his mother's ear.
Mother, let me tell you, my father was saved by my master…"
"Really?" Third Lady was shocked!
"Hush…Mother, you must not reveal this. Don't bring disaster to Master.”
At this moment, a guard came to stand guard at the door of the room where the two of them were.
Third Lady and Shi Shi stopped talking.
……
In the capital of the Central Prefecture, a tiger sat outside the mountain with a majestic aura.
It was a huge square city. It was the center of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.
At this moment, Zhongzhou City was already in the hands of Liu Yuan and his father-in-law, Zhao Teng. Emperor Liu Hui was already under house arrest.
It was a cold spring night.
Many soldiers on guard in Zhong city were trembling on the city wall.
At this moment. Suddenly!
From the darkness in the distance, a dense number of arrows shot towards them.
The entire northern city tower of the Central State Dynasty was instantly breached.
The heavy black cavalry entered the city. They immediately began to clean up the soldiers on both sides.
After the North Gate rebels were wiped out, there was a man riding a black horse outside the city gate.
White armor, white spear. It was Su Chang, the King of Northern Peaks.
He had received it three days after Shishi left. It was a secret letter from Li Yu, who had previously arranged for him to hide in the Central Plains.
After receiving the news, Su Chang did not stop. He led 30,000 cavalry soldiers and traveled day and night.
Finally, tonight. Hurrying to the capital.
These 30,000 soldiers were all carefully selected, their battle strength was valiant, and their movements were concealed!
The military counselor who had come with the team walked forward.
"King Beiyue, this is the imperial city in the center of the world after all. Do you want to find an excuse to enter?”
Su Chang coldly said,"The people of the world, hehe, this world has nothing to do with me!" If anything happens to me, I'll massacre the entire Imperial City!”
Advisor Jun was shocked! Under the influence of the Confucian culture, he obviously didn't expect his master to be so domineering!
All the soldiers gathered at the city gate of Zhong Province. Su Chang ordered.
"Everyone, quietly sneak into the palace. Kill all the royal rebel guards!”
"Remember, try not to make any noise when killing.”
"Yes!"
……
He Shishi and the Third Lady were brought into the inner hall of the Imperial Palace.
At this moment.
All the ministers were present. Zhao Teng controlled the Emperor and stood beside the throne.
"When the time is right, immediately write a letter to Su Chang, King of Northern Mountains. He asked him to come to the capital alone. Not a single soldier was allowed. Otherwise, you and your mother. You still have the entire Dou clan. All of you will die!"
"Of course, if he doesn't come, His Majesty will issue an edict saying that King Beiyue will rebel and the whole world will attack him!”
He bit his lip. She was not willing to let her master come to the capital alone. Wasn't that sending him to his death?
"Zhao Teng, you must be dreaming. I would rather die than betray my master.”
"Hahaha! You can die, but have you ever thought about your mother and your entire clan? They will all be buried with you.”
"You eunuch!" Third Lady scolded angrily. How can you be so presumptuous in the Imperial Court's main hall!”
The rebel general Liu Yuan immediately walked over.
"Pa!" Two slaps landed on the Third Lady's face.
"You woman. He dared to openly challenge the imperial power here. You're tired of living!"
He hugged his mother tightly. She turned to Liu Yuan and Liu Teng.
"Imperial power? Is the imperial power in the hands of the emperor, or in the hands of you and this eunuch? What right do you have to represent the imperial power?"
"Impudent!"
Liu Yuan walked over again.
"I'll teach you a lesson today! You little girl."
He grabbed a small knife from the table. He placed it on his neck.
"If you hit my mother again. I'll just kill myself. I would rather die than write this letter."
Zhao Teng and Liu Yuan were waiting for a timely letter to ambush Su Chang.
So they were worried about little Nan Chen king Zhou Sheng. But the heavens were on their side. Little Nanchen King Zhou Shengtu had already been utterly defeated by the Daliang Kingdom and the Great Wei Kingdom.
Right now, the only threat was the Northern Mountain Lord, Su Chang, who was entrenched in the Northern Territory.
He could only rely on his disciple to summon him into the palace at the right time and secretly kill him.
Zhao Teng shouted at the Emperor, who was under house arrest,""Your Majesty! Please issue the decree as soon as possible. Su Chang, the King of Northern Peaks. He didn't bring a single soldier to the capital to report on his work."
"It's the right time, no matter what. You have to write this letter. If you don't, your clansmen won't be able to see the sun rise tomorrow!”
Third Lady clutched her daughter's hand tightly. Tears immediately flowed down her face.
"Our Lao family is a big family respected by scholars in the world. To actually fall to such a state!"
At this time, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Mother, I really don't want to write this letter. I really don't want to implicate my master!”
The Third Lady nodded.
"Good! This is the daughter of my Lao family. So be it. The people of the Xu family have their own strength of character!"
Liu Yuan was furious. He pulled out his sword.
"Whoosh!" .
He directly slashed the neck of an elder of the Dou Clan.
Blood splattered everywhere! Everyone trembled!
"You bastards!" The Third Lady cursed," Casually killing a pillar of the imperial court is a heinous crime!”
" Hahaha…" Liu Yuan laughed coldly.
"A heinous crime? Haha! It was too funny! Who will convict me?"
Liu Yuan pointed at the Emperor, Liu Hui, who was sitting on the throne and had been controlled.
"Your Majesty, are you going to convict me?”
Emperor Liu Hui was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He hurriedly shook his head!
Liu Yuan's smile became even more treacherous.
"Third Lady, you saw it. His Majesty did not punish me. You stupid woman, how dare you speak nonsense!”
"Are you going to write a letter or not?”
"No! Just kill me!"
Liu Yuan was furious and directly slashed out two more times.
Another two members of the Yi clan were killed. For a moment, everyone in the hall was terrified.
Liu Yuan walked over and grabbed the Third Lady. He slapped her hard.
"Are you going to write it or not?”
"Mother, your daughter is unfilial, but I will never betray my master!”
Liu Yuan pointed at Shi Yi and scolded,"Since you don't want to write it, I'll write it for you." Then you have no value. Today, in this hall. I'll kill you myself. I'll feed your corpse to the dogs!"
After Liu Yuan finished speaking, he directly walked towards Shishi.
The Third Lady cried.
"It's timely, my timely…"
She closed her eyes firmly and thought to herself, Master, in the next life, Eleven will still come to find you, follow you, and accompany you…Are you willing?”
