After getting rid of those troublesome pursuers, Hua Mulan finally had a chance to stop and take a breath.Holding the courtyard wall of the East Palace, Hua Mulan endured the dizziness caused by excessive blood loss, tore off a section of her lower robe, and tied it to her left arm with her hands and teeth, temporarily relieving the bleeding symptoms.But years in the military had taught her that the calm was just the calm before the storm.Hua Mulan didn't know what stage the situation in Qingyun Palace had reached, but she knew with her toes that the result would not be good. The only difference between the two was whether or not it happened now.

This determines when the thunder that is brewing and accumulating strength in the thick clouds will strike, and also determines whether Hua Mulan has enough time to turn over the cards left by her.

The beloved son of the parents has a far-reaching plan for it.It is true that Jinshang is an emperor who can do anything for power, but it is also undeniable that Jinshang is also a young father with deep affection.In order to protect his children from any harm in today's accident, the emperor issued an imperial edict to summon Hua Mulan, and temporarily transferred the 150 personal guards she brought to Beijing who were innocent and had nothing to do with the three parties to the East Palace to act as a guardian. Guards.

Facts have proved that the emperor's decision is very correct.

Hua Mulan ran all the way, and she felt that the atmosphere in the palace was at its peak.In this huge palace, she didn't see a single guard all the way.Let alone the guards, none of the maids and eunuchs were seen.At any rate, Hua Mulan had been a well-known general of Habayashi Wei Zhonglang for a period of time, so she naturally knew how tight the defenses inside the palace walls should be, and it was absolutely impossible for such a phenomenon like an empty city to happen.

Then there is only one possibility left.The Habayashi guards in the palace were all transferred out with excuses, which temporarily caused this situation.

Before she could think about it, Hua Mulan knocked on the door knocker of the East Palace.

"General!"

"I'm fine... don't act like a little girl. Zhou Dongyi, go, and call back all the nights we left outside. Zong Boxuan, don't be dazed, go and pass the military order to Qi Wu, let him take all People gather here in the main hall of the East Palace, and I have a role to play."

The two of them went to work without mentioning it.Hua Mulan really didn't have time to tidy up her appearance, she didn't care if her left arm was still bleeding, she dragged her heavy body towards the East Palace.

According to the procedure of the celebration, the emperor will only drive to the East Palace after receiving the congratulations from the courtiers in Qingyun Palace, and have a "family banquet" with his family and clan.So now the East Palace is very lively, all the clans are crazily trying to curry favor with a three-year-old kid, hoping to gain the appreciation of the empress, so that they will speak well in front of the emperor for them.

But this happy family scene was quickly broken by a blood-stained person.When the maids who came and went saw this man strode into the palace, they were overwhelmed with horror. Fruit plates, delicacies, and delicacies all fell to the ground, and then screamed loudly, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

A majestic old man with a Chinese character face immediately jumped up: "Bold madman! You don't even look at what kind of place this is, how can you disturb Fengjia here! Left and right, quickly drag this person away!" go out!"

Hua Mulan ignored the old man, just knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute.

"My lord, Hua Mulan, the governor of Mobei, kowtowed to the empress! Please forgive me, the empress, I can't fully salute you because of my armor!"

This is the second time Shen Lin has seen Hua Mulan in the past few years. The previous time was when Hua Mulan came to the East Palace to hand over her personal guards. Hua Mulan, who was having a conversation with the eunuch, found that her heart, which had been silent for a long time, was beating restlessly again.

But don't think that Shen Lin has any idea of ​​giving the emperor a free hat.Although she and the emperor had a political marriage, the emperor did treat her very well.This marriage turned into a true love in the future, and the case was equal.Moreover, the son of heaven, who was influenced by his father and grandparents for two generations, is also devoted. As an emperor, there are only three nobles, one empress and one concubine, not as good as some children of aristocratic families.As for the concubine with a lower status, the emperor specially raised her in the palace to protect her from criticism from the eunuchs, and no one was lucky.

As for why Shen Lin was still moved, it was because she saw herself in Hua Mulan when she was young.The boy who bid her farewell back then vowed that he would defeat the northern captives and become a general. Back then, he still laughed at her in his heart, but in the end Hua Mulan really became the youngest general in the dynasty.And the self who wanted to be the wife of the great general at the beginning has been locked in the deep palace to care for her husband and teach her children, and her every move is watched by many people.

Shen Lin is very glad that he met Hua Mulan, a steady and taciturn boy when he was young. Watching his unfulfilled dreams take root and sprout in Hua Mulan, and slowly grow into a towering tree, he can remind himself from time to time. past.

If the Hua Mulan who talked with the eunuch in charge back then could allow Shen Lin to find the remnant shadow of that young boy, the current Hua Mulan is a stranger in Shen Lin's eyes.At this moment, Hua Mulan is like a flaming torch, breaking into the flower-filled greenhouse, burning everything with her own temperature, crazy and dangerous.

Seeing Hua Mulan's unnaturally hanging left arm and bloody palm, Shen Lin's first reaction was to hug the prince and cover his eyes full of curiosity.This is out of a mother's instinct to protect her child.

Looking at Hua Mulan, Shen Lin had some bad thoughts in his mind.In her impression, Hua Mulan has always been a steady person, if it is not a big event, she will not lose her composure at all.

"General Hua, let's get flat, the humerus of General Hua's kingdom..."

"Your Majesty, I'm here to ask for a favor from your Majesty." Without any greetings, Hua Mulan directly explained her purpose.

Anyway, he is the child of Shen's parents, and Shen Lin is not a fool, so he immediately realized that this is not a good time to chat.Hua Mulan was a courtier who was supposed to congratulate Qingyun Palace, but now she broke into the East Palace covered in blood, presumably something important happened.

"General Hua, please tell me."

"I ask the empress to make an order to gather all the clans in the East Palace in the two main halls so that the ministers can send troops to protect them."

Shen Lin was in a struggle. She could indeed make an order, but it was the consequence of the order... As a mother, she had to think about her children.Although the child in her arms didn't know what happened, she kept twisting her body trying to escape her mother's confinement, wondering what happened.

Just when Shen Lin was hesitating, another clan clan took the case.

"Hua Mulan, don't think that you can do whatever you want because you are the emperor's favorite general! This old man is the emperor's uncle, so you can't do whatever you want here..."

"Come on!"

"Here!" Following Hua Mulan's order, more than a dozen armored soldiers pushed in through the door and drew their knives in unison.

"Your Highness, the empress hasn't spoken yet! Besides, I didn't come here to discuss with you."

All the eagerness and small calculations became nonsense in front of the steel knife. The clan who was still talking nonsense just now looked at the relatives who avoided his eyes and sat down indignantly.

Shen Lin has been observing Hua Mulan, and happened to bump into Hua Mulan's clear eyes.

As before.

"Hua Mulan, will you miss me when you go to the border army?"

"This subordinate will always be Missy's personal guard."

Strange memories overlapped in his mind, Shen Lin opened his lips with difficulty, and said a few words: "Okay, I promise you."

"At the end of the day, I would like to thank the empress. Also, I ask the empress to move to the side room. I have something to say to the empress."

"Hua Mulan!"

Shen Lin, who seemed to have guessed something, sighed, put down his hand covering the prince's eyes, got up and waved: "It's up to you."

In the quiet room, only Shen Lin, Hua Mulan, and the prince were left.

When things came to an end, Hua Mulan found that she couldn't speak.What should she say?Miss, please show me the Shen family token that can mobilize the Habayashi Guard or the Nine Gates Guards, King Qin, to escort you?Wouldn't this really be considered usurping the throne?

Hua Mulan misfired, and Shen Lin spoke.

"Hua Zhongfu, do you still want to be my personal guard?"

"willing."

"You will protect Heng'er, right?"

"nature."

"So what do you want?"

"I want a token that can represent the Shen family."

Shen Lin did not reply immediately.

Hua Mulan's heart tightened and she thought something was wrong.Could it be that the Shen family was so confused that they didn't give the eldest lady something to defend herself even when entering the palace?

"Zhongfu, Qingyun Palace..." Shen Lin tried his best to suppress his crying.

"I...I don't know. But I will definitely..."

"Stop talking, that thing is already in your hands, I believe you must take it with you."

The cloudy conversation between the two confused the crown prince who was watching the play. He could understand every word spoken by the empress mother and the fierce minister kneeling on the ground, but these words connected with the meaning of everything He didn't understand.With his gaze swiveling over the two of them, he watched the minister kneeling on the ground and was silent for a while, took out something from the goldfish bag at his waist and put it on the ground, then stepped back quickly.

The prince didn't know it, so he trotted over to pick it up.

"Mother, it's an arrow." The prince who found the new toy looked excited, but found that his mother's face was full of tears.

After stopping the suppressed crying from the room behind her, Hua Mulan stretched her injured left arm.It's fine, it still hurts.

Fumbling for the jade pendant in her hand, Hua Mulan gave a wry smile of unknown meaning.

The beauty is very kind, but that's it.

"Come here, go and call the best Yebushou in the personal guards, I will tell them something."

At the same time, Yiqi, who had already summoned all her men who were ambushing in Dayan Palace, showed a crazy smile: "Brother, do you think we have a chance to wipe out Dayan's clan?"

When all those who are qualified to inherit the throne are wiped out, and the family without the support of the puppet will definitely cause the world to be in turmoil again, then is the opportunity for Rouran to grow and develop.In this way, it can be even more rewarding than the original plan.Of course, the risks are much greater.It's just the huge benefits that make Yiqi willing to take the risk.

In the Weiyuan Escort Bureau in the capital, Zhu Yingtai, who heard Ling Paojian, also called everyone together.
