Only Seven Days Left to Live? She Goes Crazy and Kills

Chapter 183 Meeting

The emperor is still a man of swift action and decisiveness.

He still has some grudges about what happened back then, but after so many years, he is no longer just thinking about his feelings, but more about the safety of his country and his mother Donghuang.

Quan Zi's words were concealed, and even a few of them were true.

Even more, even his identity might be false.

But since he had news about her, he had to find out for himself.

When he returned to Linzhi Palace last night, he began to arrange his travel.

Although he has not been in good health in recent years, he is not old. Most of the secret guards who followed him closely when he was young are still there. Selecting ten people is enough to protect his safety.

Now, after more than a year of careful recuperation, his health has improved a lot.

Leaving the palace in the name of sightseeing, taking enough silver, and getting his identity documents, the emperor did not leave in a big way, and did not even alarm the envoys and ministers of Yong State in the front hall.

After the palace banquet, Yan Donghuang returned to Chongming Palace and saw Rong Chun waiting outside the palace. She guessed that her father had left.

In the afternoon, she summoned Qin Yang to the palace and told him that the envoy would stay in Yongguo for a while. She ordered him to arrange the defense outside the post house and strengthen patrols in various places in the capital and outside the post house. Don't let the scoundrels disturb the distinguished guests.

Qin Yang took the order and left.

In early March, Yan Donghuang wrote a letter in her own hand and ordered the spies to deliver it to Feng Yaoguang as fast as possible. After that, she summoned Prime Minister Pei, Grand Tutor Qi, Minister of Rites and Qi Fangfei, and entrusted the government affairs to them on the grounds that the army had a special training plan and she needed to go to the barracks for a month.

Prime Minister Pei and Grand Tutor Qi obviously felt that it was inappropriate.

Yan Donghuang said: "The situation in the world is changing rapidly. The Qingluan Army is ready to go to the battlefield at any time. Special training is imminent. I hope everyone will cooperate."

Government affairs are important, but Prime Minister Pei and Grand Tutor Qi can take over for a month, and the special training of the Qingluan Army must be done by Yan Donghuang himself.

Prime Minister Pei could only nod in agreement.

Yan Donghuang summoned Gu Chiran and Mu Yunfan again, and talked with them for more than an hour, and formulated the next training plan for the Qingluan Army.

Government affairs and military forces were deployed. The next morning, Yan Donghuang quietly left the Yongguo Imperial City, with only Si Ying and Rong Ying.

After Qiao Zhuang dressed up, she quickly merged into the crowd.

No one in the court knew that she had left the imperial city, and naturally no one knew where she went.

Today is an eventful autumn.

In February, news of unrest came from Southern Qi.

The first family behind the eldest prince was executed for suspected regicide. The eldest prince led troops to force the emperor to abdicate. The commander of the Southern Qi army who sent reinforcements to the border was the third prince's man. After receiving the urgent request for help from the third prince, he rushed to the imperial city with 100,000 troops.

No one knew whether the troops transferred back from the border would be in time to stop the eldest prince from forcing the emperor to abdicate and rebel. They only knew that the troops at the border of the Southern Qi army, which was heavily guarded, were greatly reduced in an instant.

Feng Yaoguang, who received the news from Yan Donghuang, formally detained the second prince of the Southern Qi, Jimo Weiyu, and sent 50,000 troops on the grounds that "the Southern Qi army had ulterior motives and deceived the empress as a hostage", demanding that the Southern Qi army hand over the Queen of Yong.

Along with his action of increasing troops, this sentence caused an uproar in the Southern Qi army camp, and the conflict between the two sides was imminent.

Within a few days, the Southern Qi army was facing a situation of being attacked from both sides.

In the middle of March, there was a young and handsome warrior in the imperial city of Northern Qi. He was dressed in simple green clothes and had a slightly rough and dark skin due to years of martial arts training. He looked no different from an ordinary warrior.

He was followed by two tall and thin guards.

These three people were naturally Yan Donghuang, Si Ying and Rong Ying from Qiaozhuang.

The three of them wandered around the city for half a day.

The imperial city of Northern Qi was not as prosperous as Yongguo.

Even the imperial palace was much smaller than Yongguo and Southern Qi. It was more like a city lord's mansion, but it was heavily guarded and it was not easy for ordinary people to enter.

Yan Donghuang stayed in Jincheng Inn for two days.

On the first day, he experienced the customs and folkways of Northern Qi and inquired about gossip.

In addition to the empress, Jincheng was headed by the Yuan family and the Quan family.

The Yuan family was the most powerful family in Northern Qi.

When Yuan Xiumo entered the palace as the emperor's husband, he provided great help to the empress in consolidating the imperial power.

Because the first emperor of Northern Qi started his career with military power, his daughter had learned martial arts since she was a child, and leading troops was no problem. When she first established herself as the emperor, she did not lack the support of military generals, but rather civil officials.

So after the empress ascended the throne, she valued the Yuan family and preferred her eldest son born to Yuan Xiumo.

But the eldest son, Jimo Dongbai, was young and weak. Although he was gifted and mature, he was not suitable to be the crown prince.

The second prince, Jimo Qian, was the child of Quan Zi and the empress. He was healthy, but his talent was mediocre and he was not worthy of being valued.

Therefore, the empress has been unable to make up her mind for these years and did not know who to make the crown prince.

The news that surprised Yan Donghuang the most was that the empress of Northern Qi was not terminally ill. It was said that she went to court every day to handle state affairs.

Hearing this news, Yan Donghuang couldn't help wondering, since the empress was not sick, what did Quan Zi want to do in Yong Dynasty?

He said that the empress's time was coming, because he was deceived, or was he deliberately testing his father and her attitude?

Before Yan Donghuang could figure it out, someone arrived at the inn where she was staying on the third day and bowed his head to ask: "Her Majesty, please come to the palace for a chat."

At that moment, Yan Donghuang overturned all his guesses.

The queen could not be controlled by others, and she knew her identity and the news that she came to Northern Qi

Yan Donghuang could be sure that no one knew when she came, and she did not reveal any flaws when she arrived in Northern Qi.

Why did the other party find her so quickly and so accurately?

Yan Donghuang didn't ask much, as if he knew everything in his heart.

After entering the palace, the guide took her to the main hall.

The first time he saw the empress, Yan Donghuang confirmed her identity.

It was indeed his mother.

Although the years left traces on her face, her appearance did not change much. If Yan Donghuang met her in her true appearance, everyone in the palace would be shocked.

A gentle voice came from behind the dragon case: "Sit down."

Yan Donghuang didn't speak or move, staring at her for a long time: "Is your majesty in good health?"

Jimo Xi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Healthy?"

Yan Donghuang nodded: "Yeah."

Jimo Xi raised the corner of his mouth: "I am in good health."

Yan Donghuang looked indifferent: "But your husband said that you are in poor health and your end is coming."

Jimo Xi was silent for a moment: "If it weren't for my end, would you come here in person?"
