Raiders of His Royal Highness

"What I mean is that the crown prince and Qi Run will lead the troops to capture the traitor Yu Lang back..." Emperor Jingming narrowed his eyes and said without any disturbance.

"As for Song Aiqing, these days, he will stay in the Xuanzheng Hall to deal with some of the rebellious officials and thieves..."

Old Master Song hesitated for a while, then saw Yu Ling standing up beside him, lowered his head, and agreed to lead the army.

He also stood up and said yes to Emperor Jingming.

About a quarter of an hour later, they stepped out of the Xuanzheng Hall, looked at the palace guards hurrying in the palace, and whispered about what they had just agreed to.

"The palace □□ is weak and sickly, but the emperor still wants his highness to lead the army... The old minister looks at the emperor's intentions, and always feels that something is not very good..."

In Song's view, the emperor didn't care about Yu Ling's body and asked her to lead the troops out, maybe he didn't care about Yu Ling's life or death at all!

"No matter what he wants, grandson will always protect himself. It's just that he still keeps you in the palace, and I'm afraid he also has the intention of restraining the Song family and this palace..."

Yu Ling didn't guess what the old man was thinking.

The old man insisted on pushing her out, he was afraid that he would be more and more alive and kicking as this year was almost over, he was very anxious.

And after the second and third child's rebellion, the old man's eyes fell on himself even more.

But even if he guessed that she might have provoked it, he had no proof.

That's why he thought of sending himself outside, what's more, he directly sent someone to strangle him outside Beijing, so as not to come back and block his precious sixth son's way!

"It is precisely because I have seen the emperor's intentions that the old minister is so worried... What the emperor is going to do..."

The old man Song looked back at the magnificent and majestic Xuanzheng Hall, and shook his head lightly.

Back then, after he assisted the emperor to secure the imperial chair, he might have made the emperor suspicious, so he handed in the tiger amulet, resigned from the office, and honestly acted as his Cheng En Gong.

These years, he has been restraining the younger generation to act in a low-key manner, and not to do evil in the name of the empress's mother's family.

He thought that as long as the Song family lost their military power and had no descendants in important positions in the court, the emperor would not attack the Song family because of suspicion.

After all, he underestimated the emperor's suspicion...

"Please rest assured, Mrs. Song, the lower officials will always protect His Highness." Qi Run glanced at Yu Ling, and comforted Mrs. Song.

Regardless of whether the words of comfort really reassured Old Master Song, he still nodded, "Your Highness, you have to be more careful..."

Yu Ling pursed her lips, "Grandson understands."

Seeing that it was almost time for Emperor Jingming to leave, Yu Ling and Qi Run left Xuanzheng Hall.

"Later, you go out of the palace first and lead the soldiers and horses to the city gate. I will go back to the East Palace first and then meet you." Yu Ling confessed this, and then walked back to the East Palace on the snow.

……

Unmelted snow hung on the surrounding branches, and even the path that should have been cleaned was covered with a thick layer of snow.

Fortunately, Yu Ling's boots were waterproof and warm, so he didn't feel too cold.

But what the old man said just now made me feel too cold.

Now that the old man can't stand her anymore, she doesn't have to worry about the little father-daughter relationship between them anymore.

As soon as he walked outside the East Palace, Yu Ling saw Qin Zhirong who had just stepped in.

"Rong'er." She raised her cloak, walked quickly to Qin Zhirong's side, and called out with a smile.

"Your Highness? Have you just come back?" Qin Zhirong's warm breath reached behind Qin Zhirong's ears. She turned her head in surprise and joy, and saw Yu Ling with high black hair and elegant appearance.

Seeing Qin Zhirong's arms holding the stove, Yu Ling grabbed her shoulders and wrapped her in his thick cloak.

"Well, but I have to go again later."

The palace people in the East Palace had already cleared away the snow on the road.

Yu Ling and Qin Zhirong walked side by side on the gravel road back to the backyard. The snow around them was vast and white, reflecting the two people who were wearing the same red fox fur cape more picturesquely and elegantly.

Nao Nao walked behind the two of them, quietly glanced at their backs, and felt that His Highness and Empress really matched each other very well, just like what was written in a storybook, they are both talented and beautiful.

Even the white snow and red plums around seemed to lose their color, and they were not as fascinating as they were walking side by side.

Nao Nao happily watched from behind, and when they entered the backyard, he hurriedly ordered the little maid to bring hot tea.

"...So the emperor must ask His Highness to lead the troops out of Beijing?"

Just now along the way, Yu Ling has already told Qin Zhirong the reason why he will go out again later.

At this moment, Qin Zhirong frowned slightly, biting his lower lip tightly, very worried.

Yu Ling pinched her little face, and said softly: "Why do you not trust Bengong so much? Since Bengong agreed, I can come back with absolute certainty."

"There is a queen mother, a younger sister, and you in the palace... I will definitely return safely."

Qin Zhirong was both helpless that he couldn't help, and worried that His Highness didn't know when he would return.
