Ji Yunxi smiled self-deprecatingly and walked back. She took out a porcelain bottle and placed it on the imperial table. “This is the medicine my father made when he was raising the Human Voodoo Dolls.” She paused and said seriously, “Don’t take it unless you have no choice.”

This time, Shangguan Yu did not speak again until Ji Yunxi walked out of the imperial study.

Seeing that he had been staring at the porcelain bottle in silence, Lianshan, who was waiting at the side, suddenly walked forward and knelt down. “Your Majesty, General Yan is not worth risking your life.”

Shangguan Yu’s eyes turned cold. “Lianshan!”

Cold sweat broke out on Lianshan’s forehead. He lowered his head and continued, “When we first came to the Wu Kingdom, the emperor of Great Xia sent people to see you, but those people were detained by General Yan. That day, you asked me to deliver medicine to General Yan and I happened to bump into them and overhear the conversation. Concubine Li wasn’t killed by the empress dowager at all.”

Shangguan Yu was stunned and said coldly, “How do you know that the other party isn’t quibbling?”

“That’s what I thought at first, but I also heard General Yan instruct Mr. Chang to deal with them cleanly. He said that he would never let you know.”

Mr. Chang was Yan Guangmao’s most trusted retainer. During the days he led the troops to war, Mr. Chang had been in charge of all the matters in the general’s residence, including kidnapping Song Li from Great Xia. He was also the one who planned it.

“Originally, I felt that Your Majesty still had to rely on General Yan in the Wu Kingdom. I was worried that you would have a feud with General Yan because of this, so I didn’t say anything about it. However, now that things have come to this…” Lianshan gritted his teeth. “Perhaps General Yan has been lying to you.”

Shangguan Yu’s heart skipped a beat. He pulled out the sword behind him and stabbed it at Lianshan. The tip of the sword pressed against Lianshan’s throat and stopped. His eyes were cold as he looked at Lianshan with dense killing intent. “Do you know the outcome of provoking my relationship with my foster father?”

“I swear on my head that everything I said today is true.”

With a clang, the sword fell to the ground.

Shangguan Yu clenched his fists under his sleeves and instructed coldly, “Bring Mr. Chang here.”

Not long after, a refined man in a green robe entered the imperial study. In less than an hour, the door of the imperial study opened again. Shangguan Yu walked out with a cold expression. Lianshan followed worriedly. “Your Majesty..

“Get someone to clean up the inside.”

Lianshan paused and did not follow him anymore. He turned around and called for two eunuchs. As soon as he stepped into the imperial study, the strong smell of blood filled his mouth and nose.

Seeing Mr. Chang lying in a pool of blood and dying miserably, Lianshan gasped. Mr. Chang was someone General Yan trusted, but Your Majesty killed him. Did this mean that…

Noticing the two eunuchs who were so frightened that their legs went weak, he rrownea. “Hurry up ana clean up.’

“Yes, yes.”

After leaving the imperial study, Shangguan Yu went straight to the secret room where Song Li was locked up.

Bang! The secret room door was pushed open. Song Li looked up and was stunned when she met Shangguan Yu’s scarlet eyes.

“How did my mother die?” Shangguan Yu stared at her. When he asked this, his voice even trembled slightly.

Song Li was stunned for a long time before saying, “Would you believe me if I said that I didn’t kill her?”

When she discovered Nangong Xia, she had lost too much blood. That bowl of growth medicine saved the fetus in her stomach, but it was not the culprit who killed her. She died because she drank poison.

In the camp outside the city, the soldiers had long known that the empress dowager had been captured. Now that they had received the order to retreat 50 kilometers, everyone’s faces were filled with unwillingness and anger.

However, since Song Jingchen had already spoken, they didn’t dare to disobey. “Take care, Bulwark Duke.” Sikong Yi cupped his hands at Song Jingchen.

“Thank you, General Sikong.”

After watching Sikong Yi leave with the army, Song Jingchen turned around and returned to the tent.

Including South Wind, One Dot, and the others who had sent the news from Chang’an, the tent was already filled with people.

Seeing him enter, the Mahjong Brothers quickly stood up. “Master.”

Song Jingchen nodded and sat down beside Shen Yijia. When he met Shen Yijia’s worried eyes, he patted her hand comfortingly and looked at One Dot and the others. “Get ready. Follow me into the city after midnight.”

The few of them looked at each other and were about to agree when Xuanyuan Ce rolled his eyes. “Do you think people are so easy to save? What’s the use of bringing them along? Let the Demon Guards accompany you.”

The Mahjong Brothers thought to themselves, “Although we’re indeed not as skilled as those abnormal people, isn’t this too much of an insult?”

Xuanyuan Ce did not feel that his words had hurt anyone. He said seriously, ‘Moreover, someone needs to disguise themselves as you in the camp. Who else is more suitable than them? You don’t have to worry about Jiajia’s safety. Didn’t we leave 5,000 people here? If you fail, I’ll immediately leave with Jiajia and Ah Luo to meet up with the army.”

Once the rescue failed, the other party would have another hostage in their hands. At that time, there would be no need to talk about it. They would just retreat obediently.

Shen Yijia nodded repeatedly, indicating that she definitely wouldn’t do anything rash this time. Seeing that Song Jingchen was silent, she used her trump card and said, “If you don’t bring the Demon Guards, I’ll get worried. If I get worried, I’ll have insomnia. Insomnia isn’t good for the baby. Can you bear to do that?”

She naturally Imew that Song Jingchen didn’t bring the Demon Guards because he wanted them to stay and protect her, but he was the one who had to do something dangerous.

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and finally agreed. However, he only wanted the five Demon Guards Xuanyuan Ce had brought, while You Yi and You Er stayed behind.

As soon as it was past midnight, six men in black hiding in the night quietly climbed up the city tower with the help of the hooks. Before the city guards on the city tower could react, they infiltrated the capital..
