The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

Chapter 180 Conspiracy and Crisis

The trusted generals took the order and left, while Wei An stayed in the barracks, secretly thinking about countermeasures. He knew that this coup was of great importance and that if he was not careful, it could cause turmoil in the country. Therefore, he had to plan carefully to ensure that there would be no mistakes.

At the same time, Haoyu received a secret report from Wei An in the palace. After reading the secret letter, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He did not react immediately, but sat alone on the dragon chair, lost in thought. After a while, he summoned several trusted ministers and began to discuss countermeasures in secret.

"My dear ministers, the opposition forces in the court are ready to launch a coup." Haoyu's voice was low and powerful, making the ministers present feel nervous. "We must take action as soon as possible to crush their conspiracy."

"Your Majesty is right." An old minister stood up, his voice filled with worry, "But this matter is of great importance, and we must act with caution. In my opinion, it would be better to strengthen the security of the palace first, and at the same time send spies to penetrate the opposition forces to collect more evidence."

Haoyu nodded after hearing this, then looked at Wei An's trusted general and ordered: "Go to the barracks quickly and inform General Wei An of this matter. Ask her to strengthen the barracks' vigilance and select a group of elite soldiers to be ready to deal with possible emergencies at any time."

The generals took the order and left, while Haoyu continued to discuss countermeasures with the ministers. They knew that this coup was of great importance and they had to go all out to ensure the peace and stability of the country.

In the following days, Haoyu and Wei'an were busy. Haoyu strengthened the guard in the palace and sent spies to collect evidence among the opposition forces; while Wei'an strengthened the training of soldiers in the barracks to improve their combat effectiveness and selected a group of loyal and reliable generals to be ready for battle at any time.

As time goes by, the conspiracy of the opposition forces gradually surfaces. Haoyu and Wei'an successfully crush their multiple tentative attacks with their keen insight and decisive decision-making. However, they know that the real challenge is still to come and they must always remain vigilant and not relax at all.

Finally, on a stormy night, the opposition launched a general attack. They gathered a large number of troops and attempted to break into the palace and overthrow Haoyu's rule. However, Haoyu and Wei An had already made full preparations. They led their loyal soldiers to fight bravely and fought a desperate battle with the opposition.

After a night of fierce fighting, the opposition forces were finally completely defeated. Their conspiracy was completely bankrupt, and those court officials who participated in the coup were arrested and brought to justice, waiting for them to be severely punished by law.

The night was as dark as ink, with twinkling stars, and the imperial city of Yunhan Kingdom was immersed in tranquility. In the imperial study, the candlelight flickered, illuminating two figures - Haoyu and Wei An. The room was filled with a faint scent of ambergris, adding a bit of warmth and elegance.

Haoyu sat at the desk, his fingers gently stroking a delicate jade pendant, which was a relic left to him by his mother and also the sustenance of his emotions. There was both determination and hesitation in his eyes, as if he was making an important decision.

Wei An stood aside, her eyes gentle and deep, as if she could see into people's hearts. She waited quietly, without saying a word, but she could feel Haoyu's inner struggle and fluctuations.

Finally, Haoyu took a deep breath and broke the silence: "Wei An, there are some things that I have kept in my heart for a long time. Tonight, I want to tell you."

When Wei An heard this, her heart moved slightly. She nodded slightly and looked at Haoyu more intently.

Haoyu stood up and walked in front of Wei An, his eyes flashing with unprecedented seriousness and affection: "From the first time I saw you on the training ground, your heroic demeanor deeply attracted me. At that time, I was just a fledgling prince, ignorant of the world. It was your tenacity and wisdom that taught me how to take responsibility and how to face difficulties."

Wei An's eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red as she listened to Haoyu's words, but she tried hard to control her emotions, not wanting her tears to interrupt this precious confession.

"Later, we went through countless life-and-death tests together. Every time we fought side by side, I became more convinced that you were not only a comrade-in-arms to me, but also an indispensable part of my life." Haoyu continued, "I began to realize that my feelings for you have gone beyond simple friendship and gratitude. I like you, Wei An, not only as my general, but also as a woman, a woman who makes my heart beat and makes me willing to protect my whole life."

At this point, Haoyu's voice trembled slightly. He held Wei An's hand tightly, fearing that she would slip away from him: "I know that there are too many obstacles and constraints between us. The difference in status, the secular perspective... these have made me hesitate and struggle. But today, I don't want to escape anymore. I want to tell you that no matter how many difficulties and challenges we will encounter in the future, I am willing to face them with you and overcome them together."

Wei An listened to Haoyu's affectionate confession, and tears finally slid down her cheeks. She looked up at Haoyu, her eyes full of emotion and happiness: "Haoyu... I never thought that I could get such favor from you. In my heart, you have always been the brave, determined, and ambitious prince. I never dared to hope..."
