“Xiao Zeyu, come out quickly. Don’t hide inside and act like a coward.”

Yeluchun shouted into the palace with a spear in his hand. His eyes were a strange red, and his shouts were hoarse. He was completely different from before. He was steady and authoritative in the past, but now he was reckless and violent.

When Xiao Zeyu left the palace, he immediately ordered his men to shoot arrows. He didn’t care about morality at all.

The guards used their blades to deflect the arrows, protecting Xiao Zeyu as he retreated into the palace. Yeluchun had gone mad and ordered the soldiers to set the palace on fire.

“Burn them, burn them.”

Yelu Chun shouted at the soldiers, his neck stretched as he shouted, like an eagle being strangled.

The Tartan soldiers were stunned when they heard Yeluchun’s order. The people of Tartan were the most respectful. Their parents were the heavens, so they had to be respectful. Moreover, the person in the palace was the Emperor. How could they burn the Emperor and empress to death? This was a great crime that could lead to the extermination of a clan.

No one dared to do this. Seeing that he could not command his men, Yeluchun drew his saber and cut down two personal guards. He glared at them and shouted,

“Those who disobey will be beheaded.”

Xiao Zeyu could see the situation outside clearly. The old Emperor was right; there was something wrong with Yelu Chun.

“Shield.”

Xiao Zeyu didn’t want to sit still and wait for death. He couldn’t let Yelvchun send troops to burn down the palace, so he asked the old Emperor for a shield.

The old Emperor looked very sad and angry. His body was trembling. Hearing Xiao Zeyu’s words, he waved his hand at his guard. The old man was so angry that he couldn’t even speak. In an instant, he had aged more than ten years.

The guards found five shields. There were only so many in the palace. They all felt sad for the old Emperor.

What was going on? Why is every prince rebelling? And each one was more brutal than the last?

Xiao Zeyu ordered the guards to use their shields to block the arrows. They would attack the outside and couldn’t let Yeluchun’s men light the fire.

The old Emperor waved his hand at the head guard, signaling him to listen to Xiao Zeyu’s commands.

Yelu Chun had already killed five soldiers in a row. Some soldiers feared him, so they brought oil, wood, and torches and prepared to burn the palace down.

Xiao Zeyu led his men and charged out. Xiao Zeyu had the guards use shields to block the arrows rained down on him while he nocked his bow and shot at Yeluchun.

Thinking of their past friendship, Xiao Zeyu did not kill him. He only shot off Yeluchun’s hat as a warning.

Yelu Chun covered his head and jumped off his horse. He ordered the soldiers to bring shields to protect him, but he still shouted at the top of his lungs and ordered the guards to bum them to death.

Xiao Zeyu noticed that there was a carriage behind Yeluchun’s army. The curtains of the carriage were made of pearls. The people inside could see the outside clearly, while the people outside could see the inside faintly.

Xiao Zeyu was sure that the person in the carriage was the woman who had caused Yeluchun’s temperament to change. He aimed with his bow, but he could not shoot this woman because many Tartan soldiers were blocking the way.

Xiao Zeyu looked around for a higher place, but there weren’t even any trees in the palace. Only the palace roof was considered high, but he would be shot like a porcupine if he went to the roof.

He could only break through the roof. He turned around and discussed it with the old Emperor.

“Uncle, I want to borrow the roof.”

“Sure.”

Two eunuchs supported the old Emperor as he stood at the palace entrance. He nodded when he heard Xiao Zeyu.

Seeing that Xiao Zeyu was about to break through the roof, the old Emperor pleaded with a trembling voice,

“Can you…Spare my son’s life.”

“I’ll try my best.” Xiao Zeyu looked at him deeply.

He didn’t agree, nor did he firmly oppose it. He had to see how things changed. If he had no choice, he could only kill Yeluchun.

The guards broke through the roof, and Xiao Zeyu flew up to the roof. He nocked two arrows and aimed at the carriage.

The person in the car seemed to have sensed it and ordered a team of soldiers to block her car with shields.

Xiao Zeyu ordered three guards with good archery skills to stay on the roof and shoot down the Tartan soldiers who came to light the fire.

Xiao Zeyu took the pistol Su Qing gave him and aimed at the gap between the shields. He pulled the trigger, and a bullet flew out of the chamber and hit the gap between the two shields. One of the soldiers holding the shield was shot dead. Xiao Zeyu did not wait for the soldiers to block the position and immediately fired a second shot. This shot hit the person in the carriage.

“Your Highness, Miss Ling’er vomited blood.”

The soldier in charge of protecting the carriage shouted at Yeluchun. When Yeluchun heard this, he ran to the carriage like a madman. Xiao Zeyu felt his heart ache when he saw this.

He was angry when he saw it himself, but Xiao Ying saw the man she loved pay so much attention to another woman daily. How heartbroken would she be?

Xiao Zeyu took advantage of the fact that Yeluchun had no time to care and shouted at the old Emperor below,

“Emperor, tell the soldiers that as long as they put down their weapons and leave, you will forgive them.”

“Ah?”

The old Emperor nodded when he heard that. That’s right, why didn’t he think of this method?

The soldiers were now in a difficult situation. Following Yeluchun to surround the Imperial Palace was a great crime, so they could only run to the dark side and bite the bullet to rebel.

But as long as he spared them, these soldiers would naturally leave. Good idea.

“Soldiers outside, listen up. The Emperor has ordered that you will be forgiven as long as everyone puts down their weapons and leaves now. Your entire family will be wiped out if you continue to rebel.”

The old Emperor ordered his chief eunuch to go out and shout. The chief eunuch hid behind the shield and trembled as he shouted at the Tartan soldiers on the opposite side.

“The Emperor has decreed that anyone who comes to protect the palace will be rewarded ten taels of silver.”

Other than not killing him, the old Emperor added another enticement. It could be said that the older the ginger, the wiser. He calmed down after a short period of heartache and panic and regained the dignity of a country’s ruler.

Hearing that there was a reward for not killing, the soldiers on the other side were tempted. Who was willing to rebel? Who wouldn’t want to make money?

One of the soldiers led the rest to run over. Before, the palace was surrounded, but now it was the other way around. The soldiers surrounding the palace protected the palace. Other than a few of Yeluchun’s guards, the rest of the soldiers had all switched sides.

Helping the Emperor was called saving the Emperor, and helping His Highness was called rebelling. No one was stupid!

Su Qing saved Li’er in the palace. The child was deeply poisoned. Even if her medical skills were superb, she also exerted much effort. First, she used acupuncture to force the poison out. She had to find ten precious medicinal herbs to concoct the medicine. It was easy to force the poison out, but it was not easy to find all ten precious medicinal herbs.

One of them was the Tianshan Snow Lotus. Even the imperial palace did not have it. Su Qing asked the system for the snow lotus. The system shrugged.

“There’s nothing I can do. The system does not have this.”

Without the Tianshan Snow Lotus, one would not be able to understand the poison. There was only one way left. The person who made the poison must have the antidote. She just had to capture her.

Su Qing asked the guards to stay behind to protect Xiao Ying and the child while she went out to catch the person who made the poison.

When she came out, Xiao Zeyu tried to lure the Tartan soldiers surrounding the palace into surrendering. The only thing left was the carriage, and Yelu Chun carried a woman down from the carriage..
