Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Hua Manman memorized the topography near Chaoyang Palace in her mind, then carried a pile of apricots in her clothes, jumped off the apricot tree, and returned to the room in the left side hall.

Hua Qingqing said hastily when she saw her second sister came back.

"Concubine Xian sent someone here just now, saying that she wanted to see if the Seventh Prince is recovering from his illness?"

Hua Manman put Xingzi on the table and asked casually, "And then?"

Hua Qingqing: "The visitor saw that the Seventh Prince's illness has recovered, so he left again without saying anything."

She remembered the expression on the man when he left, and couldn't help but add a sentence.

"The man looked disappointed."

Hua Manman can probably guess what Concubine Xian wants to do.

It was nothing more than trying to use the life of the Seventh Prince to force her to be obedient.

But now that the Seventh Prince's illness has been cured, Concubine Xian's plan has come to naught, so she will naturally be extremely disappointed.

But Hua Manman didn't feel lucky about it.

She knew that Concubine Xian would not let it go, one plan would fail, and there was a second plan and a third plan waiting for her.

The system suggested in her mind.

"Why don't you run away with Hua Qingqing and the Seventh Prince? Anyway, you know how to do light work, and you can take their mother and son over the wall and escape from Chaoyang Palace."

Huamanman ruthlessly breaks its illusion.

"My qinggong is not yet proficient enough to lead people to fly."

She can only climb over the wall by herself, and cannot take Hua Qingqing and the Seventh Prince with her.

Hua Manman continued to pour cold water on it.

"Even if I can lead them out of Chaoyang Palace, we can't escape from the palace, we can only find a place to hide in the palace.

Hua Qingqing and I are fine, but the Seventh Prince is still just a baby, crying every now and then.

As soon as he cries our hidden positions are immediately revealed.

At that time, we will be tantamount to throwing ourselves into a trap. "

The system silently closed its mouth, pretending that it hadn't said anything.

...

Li Ji rushed to the south gate with the Dragon Knight.

Of the four city gates in the southeast, northwest and north, only the south gate has not yet been captured by King Dongyang.

Bian Ziming stood above the city wall, pacing back and forth anxiously.

He noticed movement outside the city, looked around and saw that it was King Zhao, he was overjoyed and shouted loudly.

"Quick! Open the city gate!"

The heavy city gate was slowly lowered.

Li Ji led two thousand flying dragon riders into the city gate smoothly.

Bian Ziming ran down the city wall quickly, slipped and knelt on the spot, and slid directly in front of King Zhao, crying.

"His Royal Highness King Zhao, you are back! Something serious happened in the palace!"

Li Ji said expressionlessly: "Stop talking nonsense, how is the situation in the palace?"

Bian Ziming wiped away his tears and said quickly.

"This subordinate has been guarding here, has never entered the palace, and does not know the specific situation in the palace.

But I heard that all the concubines and princes and princesses in the palace have been put under house arrest, even the queen mother is no exception.

Habayashi Wei has also been instigated by Dongyang King.

Now the whole palace is in the hands of King Dongyang. "

Li Ji: "Where is my concubine?"

Bian Ziming: "Since the princess was taken away by the people in the palace, she hasn't shown her face again, and the subordinates don't know how she is doing now."

Li Ji rode his horse to the city.

As a result, he was forced to stop after taking two steps.

The original wide road was blocked by sand and gravel, and fortifications were erected on the upper house of sand and gravel.

Bian Ziming followed quickly and explained.

"These things were made by Dongyang King to prevent us from entering the city."

King Dongyang knew that Bian Ziming would not surrender in a short time, so he ordered people to build fortifications and completely blocked the road from the south gate to the city.

Bian Ziming pointed to the houses on both sides of the street.

"These houses are also sealed off."

Li Ji said coldly: "You bring people here to demolish the house, and this king takes people into the city to have a look."

Bian Ziming was about to ask him how to get into the city?

I saw King Zhao jumped up and flew up to the house with lightness kung fu.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Wangbei and the two thousand flying dragonriders also flew up in unison.

But in the blink of an eye, they had already flown over the house and successfully entered Shangjing City.

Bian Ziming shut his mouth silently, got up from the ground, patted the dust on the hem of his clothes, and said to the lieutenant beside him.

"Have you heard what the prince said? Send people to pick up those houses."

"Here!"

Bian Ziming rubbed his chin and laughed.

Do you really think that this little trick alone can stop King Zhao from entering the city? Dongyang Wang is too small to avoid people.

Now that martial law is enforced in the city, there are no ordinary people on the streets, only officers and soldiers patrolling around.

Needless to say, all these patrolling officers and soldiers have already taken refuge in King Dongyang.

Li Ji made a gesture.

The flying dragon riders understood and immediately dispersed.

In the blink of an eye, they all disappeared.

In the palace.

Li Hao kept pacing back and forth in the room, with an anxious expression on his face, because he hadn't closed his eyes for a long time, many red bloodshots had grown in his eye sockets.

Xu Jiwu strode in.

He is Concubine Xian's cousin, who was originally the second in command of the Patrol Division. After being rebelled by Concubine Xian, he killed his boss and took the entire Patrol Division into his own hands. He also took over Habayashi Guard and the city. of all troops.

Even so, he still felt understaffed.

"My lord, I have already arranged it according to your instructions, but to be honest, if the saint really wants to attack the city by force, our small number alone is not enough to contend."

Li Hao naturally knew this too.

He said with a bitter face: "This king also wants people, but there are only so many troops in the city, where else can I go to find people?"

Xu Jiwu: "I have a way here that doesn't count..."

Li Hao hurriedly said: "Say it quickly!"

Xu Jiwu's method is actually very simple, that is, to replace soldiers with prisoners.

"We can promise those prisoners that as long as they kill one enemy, they will be able to offset their crimes. If they kill more, we will reward them according to their merits."

Li Hao hesitated and said: "Those are all prisoners, some of them are vicious murderers, if they are released, it may cause turmoil in the city."

Most importantly, if this matter is recorded in the history books, he will be infamous forever.

Xu Jiwu was helpless.

"That's why I said it's not an option.

As long as there is another way to go, I don't want to choose this way.

If your lord thinks this plan is impossible, then you can think of other ways.

Let me warn you that we are running out of time. "

Li Hao gritted his teeth.

At this point he had no choice.

Even if doing so is likely to leave a bad reputation for thousands of years, he can only admit it.

"Just do as you say."

Xu Jiwu comforted: "Don't worry, we won't release those prisoners until the last moment."

Under Li Ji's command, the Flying Dragon Knights quietly eliminated many patrolling officers and soldiers.

Li Ji and the Flying Dragon Riders all changed into the clothes of patrolling officers and soldiers, and wandered around the city pretending to be patrolling.

Wait until nightfall.

A group of patrol soldiers disguised as flying dragon knights appeared near the palace gate.
