The next day, drums sounded loudly in the court.

In the Fenghe Palace, when the emperor was supported by his eunuch and sat on the dragon throne, most of the court officials, except for some people from the Pei family who were sent to keep vigil for the queen, had basically arrived.

Last night, the Armored Guards went door to door to inform everyone, and many ministers were awakened and could not fall asleep again. They all had big dark bags under their eyes.

Fortunately, everyone was similar and no one was in the mood to laugh at or joke with each other. They all waited for the emperor to speak in surprise and confusion.

The emperor sat expressionlessly, raised his hand and waved, and the eunuch stepped forward and said in a serious voice: "Princess Yunsheng died suddenly in my Fenglan last night, and Prince Yunsheng wanted to take the princess' body away from Fenglan. The emperor urgently summoned everyone and needs everyone to come to a conclusion today. Do you agree with the peace agreement between Fenglan and Yunsheng?"

After the father-in-law's words were conveyed, the whispers from below became louder and louder.

After a while, two neutrals stood up and said, "I support peace talks."

Immediately afterwards, three members of the Dewang faction also stood up and echoed: "We support the peace talks."

Seeing this, the other people from Prince De's faction pushed each other out and said, "The Queen's funeral has not ended yet, many people from the Pei family have not returned yet, and Prince De did not come to court for some reason. Do we need to wait a little longer to discuss peace?"

"Pei Shijun?" the emperor interrupted and shouted.

Pei Shijun, as the only representative of the Pei family, walked out tremblingly. He used to hold a low official position, but now he is very old, so he did not go to the imperial mausoleum.

Although I have been retired for many years, I was informed last night that I must attend the court early today.

He guessed that there must be something fishy going on.

Fortunately, he had received instructions from King Yi that no one in his Pei family should oppose the peace talks between Feng Lan and Yun Sheng.

"This old minister, on behalf of all the people in the Pei family, has no objection to the peace talks between Feng Lan and Yun Sheng."

After Pei Shijun finished shouting, there was an uproar below, and almost everyone's eyes gradually turned to Prime Minister Shen and Prince De's faction.

"Where is Lord Shen?" the emperor called.

Prime Minister Shen stepped out, lowered his eyes, bowed and said, "I have no objection."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and glanced sharply at the others who had not yet expressed their opinions.

Seeing that the situation was about to turn to one side, the youngest and lowest-ranking person in Feng De Ze's group was pushed out and asked in a trembling voice: "I wonder why the King of De is not present today?"

"Why? He didn't come, so I can't hold a court meeting, and the ministers can't come to a conclusion?" The emperor's expression was as cold as his voice.

The man was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize: "I dare not, I did not mean that..."

"Drag him out and behead him." The emperor ordered with disgust.

Several armored guards immediately rushed in and dragged away the man who was trembling all over and could hardly stand.

The court fell silent again.

The emperor glanced at everyone and asked, "What do others think?"

Dozens of people from Prince De's faction knelt down and shouted, "We have no objection."

"Okay. I will draft an edict as soon as possible to announce the peace agreement between Fenglan and Yunsheng. This afternoon, the Yunsheng Crown Prince will take the peace documents of the two countries and set off for Yunsheng. The funeral of the Queen has not yet been completed, and the mourning should continue."

The father-in-law announced his retirement from court.

The peace talks between Fenglan and Yunsheng were thus hastily concluded.

In addition to Yunsheng's promise to return the two cities of Yunmeng and Cuifeng to Fenglan, Su Changfeng also promised to send Xuan Huangzi to Fenglan as soon as possible to treat the emperor of Fenglan.

Just in case, the emperor detained Ayi and Ye Zixi.

Ayi had a neck injury and could not walk far. What she saw in the palace this time made her realize how dangerous it was. Emperor Fenglan agreed to let her and Ye Zixi stay in the palace and would protect their safety. Ayi was unwilling to go to the Yunsheng Palace where the outcome was unpredictable.

On the third day after Su Changfeng left Fenglan Capital with Su Yunxuan's ice coffin, the door of the Fengyu-built room was suddenly knocked open.

The man came with a bloody sword in his hand and told him that Feng Shenyi was trying to kill the emperor and rebel. The empress dowager had been stabbed by Feng Shenyi in order to protect the emperor.

The Pei family's private soldiers and the soldiers that Pei Shaozheng secretly brought back to Fenglan Capital were about to occupy the entire palace.

Feng Yuqi was shocked and shouted angrily, "Are the Iron Armored Guards the ones who eat shit?"

The visitor explained: Most of the Armored Guards had been sent out to escort Princess Anlan, Prince Yunsheng and others out of the Fenglan capital.

When Feng Yuqi heard this, he was so angry that he asked Su Changfeng whether he had taken Su Yunxuan away?

The visitor took a long time to react, and after figuring out that Su Changfeng was the Prince of Yunsheng and Su Yunxuan was Princess Yunsheng, he replied: I heard that Princess Yunsheng died three days ago, and that Prince Yunsheng left Fenglan Capital with the body of Princess Yunsheng.

Feng Yuqi's face turned pale, and he wanted to ask more questions, but the man couldn't stand it anymore and said with disdain: "Commander Lu asked me to rescue you and get reinforcements. I thought King Hao was such a powerful person, but you are so nagging. I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to help Commander Lu."

After saying this, he ignored the roar from Feng Yuqi behind him and ran away quickly with his sword in hand.

Feng Yuqi chased for not far and saw many people fighting each other with swords.

After kicking away several people who were rushing towards him and trying to chop him, Feng Yuqi saw a familiar face in the crowd. He was so shocked that he shouted in disbelief: "Lu Zailin?"

Lu Zailin killed the man in front of him with a single blow, then turned his head to look at Feng Yuqi and shouted, "King Hao, it's me."

"Why are you here?" Feng Yuqi picked up the sword on the ground and rushed over.

Lu Zailin also approached him while fighting and said, "General Qin found out that Pei Shaozheng's whereabouts were strange, and secretly brought his troops back to the capital. He sent me to lead 20 Lu family soldiers to follow him quietly..."

As he was speaking, Feng Yuqi took out a flare from his arms and raised it high into the sky.

"Bang, bang, bang——" three fireworks exploded in succession.

In the distance, an experienced member of the Pei family saw this and shouted that it was not good. He shouted at the blood-thirsty Pei Shaozheng: "There is no time. Quickly fight and make a quick decision. Order your people to kill them as soon as possible. I will go and inform Prince Yi."

In Fenghe Palace, Lu Zailin escorted the emperor back all the way, while Feng Shenyi and a group of people pressed on step by step, threatening: "It's okay if you don't write the abdication letter. I will kill you immediately, and then kill Feng Yuqi, and I can declare myself emperor with legitimacy."

"You are a rebellious son. You killed your ancestors and your father. You shall not die a good death." The emperor panted heavily and retreated with Lu Zailin, still cursing.

"Father?" Feng Shenyi laughed sarcastically, "You are worthy? How have you treated me and Yin De over the years?"

"What have I done to you? Haven't I doted on Yin De enough? I give him all the good food and drinks first, and whenever he makes a mistake, I protect him..." The emperor said without changing his expression.

"You're talking nonsense!" Feng Shenyi roared, his eyes wide open, filled with hatred, "You're flattering me. You still want to deceive me now, do you really think I'm a fool..."

As he was speaking, a man rushed in and shouted, "Prince Yi, Prince Hao has released a signal flare, and the boss sent me to inform you to hurry up."

Hearing what he said, Feng Shenyi stopped talking nonsense, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand and waved, and dozens of people behind him immediately rushed forward.

Lu Zailin fought ten people alone and tried his best. He held on for a cup of tea, but he was still slashed by several swords and fell to his knees. However, he still held his sword against the ground and stood in front of the emperor.
