The Return of the Demon

Chapter 800 Breaking Into the Imperial Palace at Night

Coming out of the hall, Ning Chen came to the Ninth Princess' room.

Zi Su and Yu Die were also there.

The three girls are now in a good relationship!

Although the Ninth Princess is of noble status, she has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and the relationship between the princes and princesses is not harmonious, so she has no friends.

When she came to Ning Chen, there were not so many rules in the palace.

In addition, Yu Die and Zi Su were both very sensible people, and the three of them got along better and better.

Yu Die was careful and noticed that Ning Chen's face was not right. She poured him a cup of hot tea and asked softly: "Ning Lang, did you encounter any troubles?"

Ning Chen sighed and said: "We have to go to Xuanwu City!"

Immediately, Ning Chen told what happened in the court today!

The Ninth Princess was so angry that she jumped up, "Brother Emperor is too much, isn't this killing the donkey after it has done its work? I'll go find him, why would he bully you?"

Ning Chen's mouth twitched, speechless: "In fact, it's better to change killing the donkey after it has done its work to destroying the bridge after crossing the river!"

"Don't they mean the same thing?" The Ninth Princess was very angry, "I'll go to the palace to find Brother Emperor and ask him for clarification!"

Ning Chen reached out and grabbed her delicate wrist, smiling and said: "Don't go! Now Daxuan is stable and peaceful, there is no war to fight... It is reasonable for the emperor to take back the military power!"

The Ninth Princess retorted: "We are all family, does it matter who holds the military power? To put it bluntly, Brother Emperor still doesn't treat you as his own... No, I'm going to find him, why is he bullying you like this? "

Ning Chen smiled and shook his head, "He is no longer your prince brother, he is now the emperor."

The Ninth Princess was very angry and waved her fist, "What's wrong with the emperor? Father was also an emperor, and he didn't take back the military power."

Ning Chen shook his head and sighed, "Thousands of people are different, not every emperor is the same as father!

Okay, take it back if you want to take it back! These years, I have been fighting in the south and the north, often away for several months or half a year, and I have no time to accompany you... It's just right to take advantage of this time to accompany you well!"

The Ninth Princess asked in confusion: "Aren't you abstaining from sex?"

Ning Chen: "......."

"What's in your little head? When I say accompany you, do I mean accompany you to bed?"

The Ninth Princess blushed.

Yudie's voice was gentle, looking at Ning Chen with distressed eyes, and said: "Ning Lang has been too tired these years, it's good to have a good rest!"

Ever since she met Ning Chen, Ning Chen has been spinning like a top, never stopping.

Zi Su was full of indignation, "What did the emperor say? He just watched you being deprived of military power?"

Ning Chen shook his head, "A new emperor has his own ministers. Now the emperor no longer has the final say in the court.

Okay, let's not talk about this... Let's pack up these few days and go to Xuanwu City."

The new emperor wants military power, just give it to him!

Do you really think that holding military power can make you powerful?

Ning Chen sneered in his heart.

He stayed in Daxuan before because of Emperor Xuan.

Now that Emperor Xuan has abdicated and General Chen has passed away, there is nothing here worth him staying for!

From beginning to end, he was only loyal to Emperor Xuan, never Daxuan.

He would still live well if he left Daxuan.

And if Daxuan left him, hehe...what the consequences would be, it had nothing to do with him!

The next day, Li Hanru and others came to visit.

But Ning Chen refused to see them.

He could just leave and be his free and easy prince in Wuxuanwu City.

But Li Hanru and others can't do that. They still have to serve as officials in the court, so they can't get too close to him.

In the afternoon, Ning Chen went to pay tribute to General Chen.

It was already dark when he returned to the mansion.

Ning Chen walked into the hall, and then backed out.

He looked up at the roof, and there was no one there.

Ning Chen looked at Gu Yichun who was accompanying him, "Where is Brother Xie?"

Gu Yichun was at a loss, "I don't know!"

Ning Chen was puzzled. Could it be that it was too cold, and Xie Siyu, the beast on the roof, couldn't stand it?

He shook his head and laughed, chatted with Gu Yichun for a few words, and then returned to his room.

Habitually draw the sword and practice sword.

During the period of abstinence, he would practice himself to exhaustion every time, and then fall asleep!

"Women really only affect the speed of my sword drawing!"

Ning Chen muttered softly, his sword became faster and faster, and the cold light lingered around him.

Until he was exhausted from practicing, Ning Chen fell asleep directly.

But after sleeping for a while, there was a hurried knock on the door!

"Ning Chen, get up quickly, something big has happened!"

It was Pan Yucheng's voice.

Pan Yucheng has always been steady, and it is rare to see him so anxious. I guess something big must have happened.

Ning Chen got up quickly, walked over quickly and opened the door, only to see Pan Yucheng's brows wrinkled into a "chuan" shape, with a face full of anxiety.

"What happened?"

"Chen Chong's whole family has been arrested!"

Ning Chen's face suddenly changed, and he even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"What's going on? Who arrested them?"

Pan Yucheng said, "Your Majesty ordered the arrests, and they are being held in the Supervisory Department."

"Let's go to the Supervisory Department!"

Pan Yucheng stopped him, "You can't go. Your Majesty deliberately detained them in the Supervisory Department... If you go, Geng Ziyi will be in a difficult position. Should she release them or disobey the order?"

Ning Chen forced himself to calm down, "What exactly happened? Why did His Majesty arrest Chen Chong's family?"

Pan Yucheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Not only Chen Chong's family was arrested, but also Xie Siyu, Feng Qizhen, and Gao Ziping!"

Ning Chen's face suddenly changed, "What's going on?"

Pan Yucheng said: "According to the news sent by Geng Ziyi, Lin Ying and Xie Siyu broke into the palace at night and attempted to assassinate His Majesty, but were captured by the imperial guards and the imperial guards.

Chen Chong and Feng Qizhen were drinking in the Jiaofangsi, and they met people from the palace who came to arrest Chen Chong. They fought over a disagreement, and Feng Qizhen and Gao Ziping were arrested together!"

Ning Chen was completely stunned!

Lin Ying and Xie Siyu broke into the palace at night and assassinated His Majesty.

Assassinating the king and killing the emperor is a serious crime that will kill all nine clans!

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, "They did it for me."

Pan Yucheng nodded, "At present, it is true."

Yesterday, Chen Chong also said that Ning Chen should not tell Lin Ying about the grievances caused by the deprivation of military power. If Lin Ying knew about it, she might go to the palace to settle accounts with the emperor... I didn't expect that she actually went there.

And Xie Siyu, this guy is really a sensation!

The key is that this time the mess has been made bigger.

Lin Ying and Xie Siyu went to the palace, probably not to assassinate the king, but just to defend themselves!

These two people are from the underworld, with a weak sense of law, and I am afraid they have never thought about the consequences.

Pan Yucheng's face was solemn, and he said: "Ning Chen, Xie Siyu and Lin Ying are related to you, and you can't get away from this matter... Leave the capital quickly before the court officials receive the news."

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, "They are imprisoned for me, how can I just leave?

Old Pan, you take everyone away immediately at night, I will go to the palace now and hold His Majesty."

Pan Yucheng was shocked and shook his head and said: "No, they are already very afraid of you... If they force you to be involved in the assassination of the king, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Ning Chen smiled silently, "Old Pan, do as I say... It's not that easy to want me to die?"
