Su Qing looked into Xiao Zeyu’s eyes and smiled.

“The explosion has injured the Emperor and the Empress. Quickly return to the palace.”

Very soon, the guards were in chaos as they protected the Emperor’s carriage and ran swiftly towards the palace. On the way, they maintained vigilance and did not allow anyone to approach. Very soon, the news spread through the streets. The Emperor, the Empress, and the Grand Preceptor’s family were all seriously injured from the explosion. The rumors spread very quickly.

On the morning of the second day, Xiao Zeyu did not appear. The ministers all asked Qin Feng about Xiao Zeyu’s situation. Qin Feng shook his head and sighed,

“He’s still being treated. Everyone, you must be on guard and wait for the Emperor to recover.”

This was equivalent to indirectly confirming that Xiao Zeyu had been injured in an explosion. The officials in the court discussed it animatedly and were very uneasy. When they returned home, they were all like frightened birds.

For three consecutive days, the Emperor did not attend court. The officials in the court discussed in private whether the Emperor and the Empress could pass this round.

A country cannot live without a ruler! Should he appoint a crown prince?

The Palace of Heavenly Purity was heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to approach it. Even the palace maids and eunuchs were not allowed. Only the Emperor and the Empress’s guards could enter the Palace of Heavenly Purity.

At this moment, Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu were sitting in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, listening to the report of the secret agents. Xiao Zeyu’s expression was cold and solemn. Su Qing’s fingers gently tapped on the table; her face was as gloomy as the sky before the storm.

“Keep an eye on everyone in their house.”

Xiao Zeyu could confirm that there were three suspicious people after listening to the report of the secret agent, so he had the secret agent keep an eye on

them.???? The Imperial City was still heavily guarded and only allowed entry. More troops were sent to search the entire city, and some were sent to guard the armory and ammunition warehouse of the Imperial City. Not a single rat was allowed in.

The Rat couldn’t hold it in in this tense atmosphere anymore and was ready to move out.

Censor’s house

In the evening, Jiang Baisheng came to the Imperial Censor’s Office and didn’t come out.

At midnight, a team gathered in the Imperial Censor’s Office. This team opened a secret passage and quietly went out.

There were explosives and grenades hidden in the secret passage. These people were carrying these two weapons as they came out of the outskirts of the West City. There were about 300 people on this team, and each of them was holding weapons and explosives. They were ready to blow up the gate of the West City and welcome the team from outside the city.

“Isn’t it a little too risky?”

Jiang Baisheng was wearing a black night-traveling suit, covering his face with a mask. He looked at the dark forest and felt uneasy.

“Can the Emperor and the Empress be injured so easily?” he whispered to Censor Zhang Song.

“No matter how powerful they are, they can’t withstand the bomb. Don’t worry. The secret agents I planted in the palace have spread the news. Today, they heard crying from the Palace of Heavenly Purity. I reckon that those two are already dead.”

Zhang Song was also dressed in black. This was an opportunity. No one was in charge of the court, and the soldiers in the city were leaderless. If they did not take action now, when would they?

“I hope everything goes smoothly today.”

Jiang Baisheng muttered in a low voice. Zhang Song frowned and looked at him with disdain. He was timid and greedy. What a useless thing.

As soon as they finished speaking, they saw flames around them as if it was daytime. The person standing at the front was none other than Zhang Jinglin.

“Shoot arrows.”

With Zhang Jinglin’s order, tens of thousands of arrows were fired. In an instant, less than half of the 300 men in black were killed.

“Use grenades and explosives.”

Zhang Song shouted. A fragrance wafted in the air. Before these people could throw the grenades, their vision turned black, and they all fell to the ground.

“The Empress’ medicine is effective.”

Zhang Jinglin looked at the unconscious men in black and smiled. He ordered his men to go over and put away the explosives and grenades.

Zhang Jinglin looked at the explosives and grenades that the soldiers had collected. The word ‘Tang’ was written on them. These people were considered very resourceful to steal explosives and grenades from the heavily guarded gunpowder warehouse.

If they were allowed to succeed, the Great Tang would be destroyed.

Fortunately, the Emperor and the Empress made a prompt decision. Otherwise, this malignant tumor would not have been removed.

After capturing the men in black, Zhong Yong led the soldiers to ambush at the western city gate. After the explosion, the city gate opened wide. The soldiers lying in ambush outside the city heard the explosion and saw the city gate open wide. They thought that the reinforcements from the city had already succeeded.

“Kill, catch the dog emperor, and avenge the emperor.”

The commander shouted, and the army rode their horses into the city. However, just as they reached the city gate, they saw a group of soldiers rushing out from the city gate. Their number was twice that of theirs. The city wall was brightly lit, and they were completely exposed to the enemy’s shooting range.

“Kill, leave no one alive.”

Zhong Yong sat majestically on the horse’s back. The iron hammer in his hand whistled as he swung it. Wherever the iron hammer went, brain matter splattered everywhere. The enemy’s army was thrown into disarray, and more than half of them soon were killed.

Zhong Yong caught up with the enemy army commander with a hammer and hit him with the hammer. This person spat out blood and fell off his horse. The Xiao Family Army tied him up.

The other enemy troops panicked when their commander was captured and were soon defeated.

“Don’t let any of them go,” Zhong Yong ordered.

The enemies were utterly wiped out in this battle, which was a complete victory.

When Zhang Song and Jiang Baisheng woke up, they found they had already been imprisoned. The current Emperor was sitting on the upper seat and looking at them coldly. The two of them instantly fell into despair.

It was over; all their efforts had gone to waste!

“Zhang Song, are you from Japan?”

Xiao Zeyu looked at Zhang Song and asked coldly. Zhang Song raised his head and closed his eyes for a while. Xiao Zeyu didn’t rush him and just stared at him coldly.

This Zhang Song was the new top scorer last year. His knowledge was first-class, and he was very talented. He valued him very much. Because the court urgently needed talents, he made an exception and made him a censor.

Who would have thought that he was the Third Prince of Japan? He had been hiding in the capital as a spy. Last year, he and Qing ‘er had destroyed the East Ocean Kingdom. This kid had always wanted to restore the country, so he had been hiding in the imperial court after taking the examination.

“I’m the Third Prince of Japan. You destroyed my country, and you killed my father and brother. If I don’t take revenge, I’ll be ashamed of myself. Since I’ve fallen into your hands today, you can kill me or torture me.”

Zhang Song was still very unyielding, looking as though he was unafraid of death. Xiao Zeyu nodded his head: “Your bones are still very tough. Alright,

then,???? I shall grant you the right to execute you by a thousand cuts!”

This was the cruelest way to die. Only evil people would be executed by a thousand cuts, but to the little turnips of Japan, this wasn’t even considered cruel. They weren’t worthy of being human, and what they did was a thousand times worse than this.

Zhang Song’s expression changed drastically. He was no longer as challenging as before. When the execution soldiers dragged him up, his legs were weak, and his body was trembling.

“You… I’m a prince; you can’t torture me like this.”

“Oh? Then light the sky lantern first before you die.”

Xiao Zeyu looked coldly at Zhang Song. If it weren’t for them beating him at his own game, they wouldn’t have been able to find this traitor. Since he felt that he was worthy of his prince status, he would add one more..
