Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 854

"Don't move!" in a panic, Xia Huanyu's voice suddenly came up like a thunder, "Whoever dares to take a step forward or shout again will be killed."

The chaotic garden quieted down in an instant.

Xia Huanyu turned to Luo Qingyan and asked, "Which place is the most conspicuous in the Crown Prince's Mansion?"

Luo Qingyan turned to Yun Shang. The smile on Yun Shang's face was still faint, as if the sounds outside had disappeared. She replied, "Your Majesty, the Pavilion across the street is the highest and most eyecatching."

Xia Huanyu nodded and turned to look at the people in the garden. He asked, "Aren't they going to kill me? I will go to the most conspicuous place in the Crown Prince's Mansion then. If they have the ability, just come and kill me. Show me the way..."

Luo Qingyan nodded, turned to the guards around and said coldly, "You all stay here to protect everyone." Then he got on the boat with Yun Shang and went to the pavilion on the other side.

Everyone saw that Xia Huanyu, Empress Hua, Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang, who was holding her baby, slowly climbed to the pavilion. The cries of killing were still going on outside, but Lord Hua Guo laughed. "They've shouted for so long, but no traitor has come in. It seems that there's been lots of thunder but little rain. Since his majesty is not afraid, what are we afraid of? As a drinker, why should we be afraid of wine?" With guards around, everyone felt a little relieved and sat down. Only some women trembled and their faces turned pale, as if they were extremely scared.

An hour later, the cries of killing continued. It seemed they were around the Crown Prince's Mansion. However, just as Lord Hua Guo said, no one came in from the beginning to the end.

Lord Hua Guo's face darkened.

He felt something was wrong. It sounded there were a lot of people outside, but why didn't they make a move? If they were afraid of the guards of the Crown Prince's Mansion, why did they make a bluff outside? Was it just to frighten them?

Thinking of these, Lord Hua Guo couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up and said to Lady Hua Guo, "I'll go out to have a look."

Knowing what kind of person he was, Lady Hua Guo didn't stop him. She just nodded and said, "Be careful. Bring more guards with you."

Before Lord Hua Guo walked out of the garden, he saw a man dressed like a guard rushing over and shouting, "Bad news! Bad news! The rebellious army has entered the palace and the city is surrounded by them."

Everyone was shocked again, but they tried to behaved themselves in front of the guards. They could only whisper and dare not make loud noises. Lord Hua Guo pulled out the sword from the guard's waist and stabbed it into his chest. The guard's eyes widened. He fell to the ground and died before he knew what happened.

Lord Hua Guo sneered and said in a loud voice, "I've been in the court for so many years, but I've never seen a guard wearing cloth shoes. I'm afraid you don't have time to change your shoes. Don't be deceived or flustered. I'll go out to have a look. Both the imperial and the palace guards were in the city. How could it be so easy to let traitors enter the palace? What a joke!"

In the pavilion, Xia Huanyu and the others had already rearranged the banquet and sat down to drink. After getting down from the Pavilion, Liu Wenan returned to the garden with a smile and announced loudly, "The imperial guards and the palace guards have been mobilized. They will be here soon. Please rest assured, ladies and gentlemen."

Liu Wenan took a look at Hua'er, and Hua'er quickly waved her hand. Then some dancing girls jumped up from the long corridor on both sides of the lake and landed on the stage in the middle of the lake, and began dancing trippingly.

No one noticed that in the crowd, several people would smile at one another now and then. And there was a bit of complacency in their expressions.

knowing from Liu Wenan that both the Imperial and the palacel guards were coming, everyone was relieved, but no one knew that a thrilling battle was going on in the palace with the gate closed.

There were many dead bodies of maids in the Imperial Garden. The ladies were taken to the Imperial Garden by a group of men in black with swords and blades in their hands. They were all delicate women. They had never seen such a magnificent scene before. They were frightened to death and trembled all over.

Hundreds of people stood in the hall, led by a middle-aged man wearing a cap. He raised his head and looked around at the magnificent porch pillars of the Taiji Palace. He quickly walked up the steps and carefully touched the Dragon chair on the platform. The armrest was the head of the dragon. He bent down, squinted his eyes and gently touched it. Then he burst into laughter. He announced, "Ha ha! This world, this country, is mine!" Then he turned around and sat on the chair.

"Long live your majesty!" Hundreds of men in black below all knelt down with three cheers for their Imperial Majesty. Hearing this, the man on the Dragon chair laughed again. He raised his head and waved his hand gently while lowering his voice. "Everyone, please rise."

Everyone stood up. The person on the dragon throne looked at the people in the hall and asked, "The Empress, no, where is the Eldest Princess?"

The person standing in the front quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess is in the Weiyang Palace."

"Weiyang Palace?" The man on the Dragon chair frowned and said in a colder voice, "This woman is just too coward. She has already been taken away. What else should she go to see? Just wait for me to ascend the throne and give her the Weiyang Palace. Go and ask the Eldest Princess where the imperial seal is hidden. Let's take the imperial seal as soon as possible, and then we can order all the officials in the country."
