However, no matter how much quarreling there was in the hall, Xuan and Di seemed not to hear it and did not react at all.
"Your Majesty is speechless at first glance. The previous decree to appoint the Crown Prince must have been the work of Consort Xian and Prince Yi, who had ulterior motives and were trying to misrepresent the Emperor's will and disrupt the government!"
The Minister of Rites Xu Dulin, who had been standing below for a long time, saw that the time seemed to be almost right, so he stepped forward and spoke righteously, all of his words were about Concubine Xian and Prince Yi wanting to murder Emperor Xuanhe, and wanted to punish the mother and son.
This reminder made the court officials even more panicked, and everyone realized that Emperor Xuanhe might have been killed!
"Ridiculous! I, Jiang Yi, am the Crown Prince, personally appointed by my father, the Emperor. It is a legitimate title!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi glared at the Minister of Rites Xu Dulin, his eyes filled with anger, and he wished he could cut this troublesome thing into pieces.
Upon seeing this, the court officials understood that there was something fishy about the decree to appoint the crown prince, and the fact that Emperor Xuanhe was sitting there speechless was even more problematic.
Everyone was even more angry, making a lot of noise, and shouting that Jiang Yi was a traitor and had ambitions of rebellion.
"Everyone, please stop arguing and think more about your wives and children at home. After all, they are all drinking tea and chatting in Yonghe Palace right now!"
These words were like an ice cube thrown into boiling water, instantly quieting down the previously noisy Golden Palace.
When everyone heard this, they knew that Concubine Xian and Prince Yi had been prepared for this. Now their wives and children must be in Concubine Xian's hands. What a vicious mother and son!
In addition, when everyone looked around and did not see Prince Qi, the only one who could attend the court, they felt even more depressed. Could it be that Prince Qi was also in danger? Was the court really going to fall into the hands of Concubine Xian and Prince Yi, mother and son?
Just as everyone was in confusion and considering whether to compromise to save their families, a sound of clapping came from outside the Golden Palace.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
"The virtuous concubine and the eighth brother are really good at this!"
When everyone heard the voice, they turned around and saw Prince Qi pushing open the tightly closed door of the Golden Palace and walking in step by step, steady and imposing.
Jiang Yi had always looked like he was sure of winning, but when he saw Jiang Qi, the pride on his face seemed to freeze, and he then exclaimed in disbelief.
"Jiang Qi, how did you get in? Where are the Dragon Guards?"
Jiang Qi looked at Jiang Yi's expression, and then heard that even at this point, Jiang Yi was still asking such an obvious question, and he spat out two words with disdain.
"idiot!"
"Eighth brother, it seems that the virtuous concubine has protected you too well over the years!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the virtuous concubine who was standing at the top with a gloomy face, and there was clear sarcasm in his eyes.
"Jiang Qi, it seems that I underestimated you!"
The virtuous concubine looked at Jiang Qi, who had not been very outstanding in the past few years. Now he had come to this point and was still plotting against them, mother and son. She spoke in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, your compliments are too kind!"
"Oh, no, now it should be the traitor Tang who murdered my father!"
"Gentlemen
Follow me to capture the king and save him
Capture the traitor Tang mother and son, and purge His Majesty's court!"
Following Jiang Qi's order, a group of Yulin soldiers rushed in and started fighting with Jiang Yi and Concubine Xian's men in the palace.
When Concubine Xian saw this, a fierce look flashed in her eyes. She picked up the whistle in her hand and blew it. At the sound of the whistle, a large number of men in black rushed out. Their sword skills were fierce and every blow was deadly.
If Mu Jiaojiao and Jiang Jin were here, they would definitely notice that these people have similar movements to the black-clad men who broke into Prince Jin's mansion at night. They must be the Concubine Xian's greatest reliance, the desperate warriors in her hands.
Jiang Qi didn't expect that Concubine Xian still had such a group of desperate warriors in her hands. These people seemed to have no consciousness and had no reaction when they were cut. This made his scalp numb as he held the sword.
Things have come to this point. To retreat means death. He once again sent a signal outside the hall. A moment later, Prince Zhan Jiang Xuanyi rushed in with a group of Yulin soldiers, led by the newly promoted upstart Zhao Xiangyi.
There was another round of fighting. Most of the civil officials in the hall were powerless and fled for safety, hiding in corners. The military generals were also unclear about the situation and did not dare to act rashly.
Because of the later joining of the Yulin Army, Jiang Yi and his mother were obviously becoming increasingly defeated, and Concubine Xian watched this situation.
Then she glanced at Emperor Xuanhe, who was sitting expressionlessly on the dragon throne. Her face suddenly turned fierce. She pulled out the hairpin from her head, wanting to use Emperor Xuanhe to threaten everyone and find a way out for them and their son.
"boom!"
Just as she was about to get close to Xuan Hedi, her body was kicked away like a firecracker.
The sudden change above the dragon throne made the people who were fighting stop, because they saw that Emperor Xuan He, who had been expressionless and silent before, now slowly raised his arms.
"Your Majesty, are you all right?"
Wei Quande, who was waiting on the side and seemed to have just reacted, was full of worry and carefully checked whether Xuan and Di were injured.
Xuan Hedi waved at him, indicating that he was fine. He had never felt so good in the past one or two years. His whole body was relaxed and his internal energy flowed smoothly.
The virtuous concubine who was kicked and lying at the bottom of the steps of the Golden Throne Hall was spitting blood and looking at the people above her with disbelief in her eyes, as if she couldn't understand why Emperor Xuan and Emperor were not controlled by the insect.
Jiang Yi was so frightened by this situation that he yelled out loudly without thinking, which showed how panicked he was.
"Father, aren't you controlled by a poisonous insect?"
"Wow~"
"So it turns out that Your Majesty was infected with a poisonous insect, which is why he can't speak..."
The officials who had been hiding and running around, now seeing that Emperor Xuan and Emperor were fine, finally had a little courage and started whispering.
"Unfilial son! Are you very disappointed now?!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuan He picked up the inkstone on the table and smashed it at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi had been pampered since childhood and had a weak foundation in martial arts. He was hit hard on the forehead and fell to the ground.
"Yier!"
The virtuous concubine had calmed down for a while and had just recovered some strength. Seeing Jiang Yi injured and blood flowing from his head to his cheek, she anxiously crawled over, picked up Jiang Yi, and checked his wound.
The virtuous concubine fainted when she saw Jiang Yi, and her hands holding him were covered in blood. Then she looked up at Emperor Xuanhe with a look of madness on her face.
"Hahaha……"
"Jiang Xuanqing, I underestimated you!"
"You planned all this today, didn't you?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanhe's eyes darkened and his face was filled with anger, and he then gave orders loudly.
"Come here, take this vicious woman away and execute her on a later date!"
The Yulin Army in the hall heard the order and rushed forward. They quickly dragged Concubine Xian and Jiang Yi away, leaving spots of blood in the Golden Throne Hall.
Afterwards, Jiang Qi, who was standing aside in the hall and watching the whole process, suddenly realized that he might have been tricked by Jiang Jin and his wife.
Fortunately, he was prepared and acted in the name of saving the emperor, otherwise today would not have ended well. He immediately suppressed the anger in his heart, and then knelt down in fear and trepidation, and apologized sincerely.
"My son, I pay my respects to my father!"
"I'm sorry for being late in rescuing you. I frightened you, Father. Please punish me!"
