Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Concubine Xian knew very well that with Li Hao's strength, the possibility of a successful rebellion was very low.

The final result is likely to be that Li Hao dragged her and her natal family to die together.

Reason told her that the most important thing to do at this time was to tie up Li Hao and send him to the emperor.

In this way, she can not only save her own life, but also keep her family from being implicated.

But in doing so, she would have to sacrifice her only son.

Concubine Xian stared blankly at Li Hao, watching him kneeling on the ground crying and begging herself.

He was the child she gave birth to at the risk of her life in October, and she worked hard to raise him.

How could she send him to a dead end?

Li Hao cried tears all over his face: "Father doesn't want me anymore, you can't let me go."

Concubine Xian's heart ached so much that the corners of her eyes gradually became moist.

She squatted down, stretched out her hand to take her son into her arms, hugged her tightly, and comforted her with a trembling voice.

"I am your mother, and I will never want you.

Don't be afraid, as long as you have your mother, no one can hurt you. "

...

The defense of the palace is shared by Flying Dragon Knight and Habayashi Guard.

It stands to reason that Flying Dragon Knight and Habayashi Guard are directly under the emperor's jurisdiction.

The difference is that the Flying Dragon Knight only needs to be responsible for protecting the safety of the emperor alone.

The Habayashi guards are responsible for the safety of the entire palace, such as guarding the palace gates, daily patrols, etc., are all undertaken by them.

When the emperor went to Yuqing Mountain, he took all the Flying Dragon Riders away, and now all those staying in the palace are Habayashi Guards.

Li Hao summoned the commander of Habayashi Guard and the two deputy commanders into the palace on the grounds that an assassin appeared in the palace.

As a result, the moment the three of them stepped into the door of the imperial study, they were besieged!

Li Hao had already been ambushed in the imperial study.

More than thirty masters besieged the three of them.

Even though those three were the commander and deputy commander of the Habayashi guards, all of whom had extraordinary skills, they were still outnumbered and were quickly captured alive.

Li Hao ordered people to put the knife into the hands of the two deputy commanders, forcing them to stab the commander to death with the knife.

Seeing the commander dying, the two deputy commanders turned pale with fright.

Li Hao took out the speech he had prepared long ago, and said coldly.

"Now I give you two ways——

Either wait for your father to come back, and punish one of you for killing an official of the court.

Either you can follow this king to do it together, as long as this king can make things happen, your benefits will be indispensable in the future.

Which way do you choose? "

The two deputy commanders knelt down on the ground, their faces pale as paper.

How else could they choose?

Killing an official of the imperial court is a capital crime.

Even if they were forced, who can prove it for them?

As long as the king of Dongyang kills him at that time, it means that they killed the commander of Habayashi guard, and they can't argue with it.

The risk of rebellion is great, but at least there is a chance.

In the end, the two of them could only bow their heads in resignation.

"The final general is willing to listen to His Royal Highness Dongyang King's orders!"

Li Hao ordered them on the spot to write down the documents of willingness to serve, and signed them.

With this document, even if the two want to go back on their word in the future, it will be useless.

There is no turning back when you open the bow.

Once they boarded the pirate ship, it was impossible to get out unscathed.

At this time, it was three o'clock.

The rain has gradually eased, and the sky is still gloomy.

Most people in the palace were still asleep, not knowing how many things happened outside that night.

Concubine Xian took Habayashi Wei to Biquan Palace.

The Queen Mother was woken up and was in a bad mood.

She was about to get angry when she saw Mamoru Habayashi aiming the cold shining blade at her.

The Queen Mother froze in place, looking at them in disbelief.

"What are you guys doing here?"

Concubine Xian respectfully blessed her body.

"Assassins have entered the palace, in order to protect the safety of the empress dowager, I would like to ask you to hide somewhere else.

After the assassin is caught, the concubine will naturally send you back in full. "

The queen mother has also seen a lot of things in the world.

As soon as she heard this, she knew that something had happened in the palace.

"Ai's family doesn't go anywhere, Ai's family stays in Biquan Palace!"

Concubine Xian smiled apologetically: "This is beyond your control."

Under her signal, the Habayashi guards directly knocked out the queen mother and forcibly took her away.

Seeing this, the maids and eunuchs in Biquan Palace were all trembling with fright.

In the end, several nuns and maids trusted by the queen mother stood up and tried to stop them, but they were directly killed by the Habayashi guards one by one.

Blood splashed out, dyeing the ground of Biquan Palace bright red.

The rest of the court ladies and eunuchs didn't dare to take a breath, allowing Xianfei to lead the Queen Mother away from Biquan Palace.

After controlling the queen mother, all the concubines in the palace who could be called names were forcibly taken away by Habayashi guards and put under centralized supervision.

Naturally, Hua Qingqing was also included.

They were imprisoned in Chaoyang Palace.

This place was originally a cold palace, and there was nothing in it.

The concubines didn't even have a clean place to sit down, but they didn't dare to complain, they could only pray silently in their hearts, hoping that the emperor would come back as soon as possible, and that the current crisis would be resolved as soon as possible.

Li Hao controlled the entire palace in his hands.

But that's not enough.

Li Hao ordered people to send a letter to several veteran ministers of Zhongshu Province, saying that there was an urgent memorial to be dealt with, and summoned several veteran ministers to the palace overnight.

As a result, these veterans never returned.

They were imprisoned in the palace.

Li Hao threatened and lured them in various ways, trying to get them to change their family and serve him.

However, these veterans are tough.

Faced with Dongyang King's coercion, they hit their heads on the ground directly, preferring to die rather than surrender.

Although Li Hao was annoyed, he couldn't really let these old guys die, he could only let them be strictly guarded, and then slowly grind with these old guys when he was free in the future.

Right now Li Hao has more important things to do.

He had to find a way to take control of the Patrol Division and Tiger Roaring Battalion.

The city defense work of Shangjing City is jointly in charge of by the Patrol Division and the Tiger Roaring Battalion. As long as they can be controlled, the entire Shangjing City can be held in their hands.

Coincidentally, the second in command of the Patrol Division is Concubine Xian's uncle.

Concubine Xian has a way to persuade her uncle to stand on their side, but the difficulty is on the side of Huxiaoying.

Tiger Roaring Camp is directly under the command of King Zhao Li Ji.

Everyone in Beijing knows what kind of virtue Li Ji is.

Even Li Hao himself knew that it was impossible for him to persuade Li Ji to defect.

The only bargaining chip they have to control Li Ji now is Princess Zhao.

Hua Manman was soundly asleep when she was suddenly awakened by a loud knock on the door.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Ruyun and Qinghuan pushed open the door and rushed in.

Qinghuan said anxiously: "Outside... a lot of people came..."

Si Yun said quickly: "A lot of officers and soldiers came outside, they said they came to arrest you."

Hua Manman frowned: "What are they arresting me for? I haven't broken any law."

Qinghuan: "They say...it's the Queen Mother..."

Si Yun: "They said that the Empress Dowager wants to see you, but the slaves always feel that they are coming from bad people."

Hua Manman lifted the quilt and got out of bed: "Take me to have a look."
