Chapter 1381 Returning to the Imperial City

Late at night, Yun Zheng and Miao Yin were awakened from their sleep by a series of hurried knocks on the door.

"Your Highness, someone is coming from the Imperial City!"

The voice of the guards was heard outside the door.

Someone from the Imperial City?

Yun Zheng sat up suddenly.

"Take him to the study. The king will be there soon!"

After giving the order, Yun Zheng immediately began to put on his clothes.

Damn it!

Finally, we got news from the imperial city.

I hope it’s not bad news!

He had received news of the rebellion of Yuan Cong and Yuan Gui, father and son, the day before yesterday.

He didn't take the rebellions of Yuan Cong and Yuan Gui seriously.

Even if you give this father and son 100,000 soldiers, they still can't accomplish anything.

What's more, several of An Er and his men work under Yuan Cong. He believes that Yuan Cong and his son will definitely not be able to cause any trouble.

In the end, it still depends on the third brother.

He always felt that the third brother would not sit still and wait for death.

If he were the third child, he would definitely not be willing to accept this.

I just don't know how much power the Third Brother has secretly accumulated during such a long period of time as regent.

These forces are the core forces of this huge storm.

"Can I go with you? I can't wait to know whether Yun Li has been captured."

Miaoyin also sat up and quickly put on her clothes.

"it is good!"

Yun Zheng nodded slightly and got dressed.

Soon, Yun Zheng and Miaoyin came to the study.

The person who came was none other than the shadow guard who had delivered secret letters to Yun Zheng on behalf of Emperor Wen many times.

"Greetings to His Highness the Sixth Prince, and to Madam Miaoyin!"

The shadow guard bowed.

"No need to be polite!"

Yun Li invited the shadow guard to sit down, "What's the situation in the imperial city?"

The shadow guard replied: "The prince set fire to the Imperial Ancestral Temple and started a rebellion..."

The shadow guard cut to the chase and simply told Yun Zheng the entire process of Yun Li's rebellion.

Now, Emperor Wen has already issued a confession of guilt for Yun Li's treason, and has issued an imperial decree to arrest Yun Li throughout the country. Anyone who captures Yun Li and Qiao Yanxian and other rebels will be rewarded handsomely, regardless of whether they are dead or alive.

After listening to the shadow guard's story, Yun Zheng couldn't help but let out a long breath.

This result can neither be described as good nor bad.

The third one ran away!

Fortunately, the third brother's plan did not succeed.

If the third brother really captures my father, it will be troublesome.

I have to say, the third brother is quite amazing!

Even in such a desperate situation, he almost captured my father.

Even though he failed in the end, he was still allowed to escape.

However, this bastard is really cruel.

Not only did they burn the Taimiao, but they also captured Queen Wang and the Ninth Prince.

He would stab his father in the heart even if he died!

"How is Father's health?"

Yunzheng asked worriedly.

"The emperor's health is not very good. The imperial physician is always by his side. But don't worry, Your Highness. At present, the emperor's health should not be a big problem..."

"That's good."

Yun Zheng felt relieved and asked again, "Did the emperor ask you to bring a letter?"

"Have!"

The shadow guard quickly took out a letter and handed it to Yun Zheng.

Yunzheng took it and opened it.

The content of Emperor Wen's letter was very simple, which was to warn him against the collusion between Zhao Ji and Yun Li.

Once Zhao Ji colludes with Yun Li, the rebellion must be quelled as quickly as possible to minimize casualties, while also being on guard against Xiqu taking advantage of the situation to rob.

After Zhao Ji finishes his business, they should return to the imperial city.

Now, Zhao Ji is the biggest destabilizing factor.

What Emperor Wen feared most was that Zhao Ji would lead his army to fight against Yun Zheng.

If that were the case, no matter who wins or loses, Daqian would be seriously damaged, and it might even affect the plan to destroy Xiqu.

Yun Zheng put away the letter and said to the shadow guard, "Well, you have come here exhausted, go and rest first. I will write an envelope to my father, and you can take it back for me."

"Yes!"

The shadow guard received the order.

Soon, Yun Zheng asked someone to take the shadow guard downstairs to rest.

"Ugh……"

Yun Zheng sighed softly and looked at Miaoyin apologetically: "The third brother ran away, I can't let you..."

"Okay!"

Miaoyin interrupted Yun Zheng, "Even if he didn't escape, would your father still let me kill the third brother with my own hands?"

"Didn't Xu Shifu's entire family go to jail?"

"Tell your father not to take their heads yet. When we return to the imperial city, I want to kill Xu Shifu myself, or kill his son in front of him..."

Along the way, Miaoyin has also let go of many things.

She knew in her heart that even if Yun Li was caught, only Emperor Wen could kill him.

No one else can do that!

However, now that Yun Li has escaped, this is an opportunity.

Now Emperor Wen has issued an order to arrest Yun Li and others, regardless of whether they are dead or alive.

If Yun Li fell into their hands, she would have a chance to kill him with her own hands.

But she didn't have to insist on killing Yun Li with her own hands.

Since Yun Li ran away, let’s put the blame on Xu Shifu!

A few years ago, Yun Li definitely didn't have the brains to frame the former prince.

Xu Shifu must be the real mastermind!

With this calculation, it seems reasonable to settle the score with Xu Shifu.

Looking at Miaoyin who was considerate, Yun Zheng couldn't help but nodded heavily: "Okay, no problem! I'll write this down right away!"

Letting Miaoyin kill Xu Shifu shouldn't be a problem.

Even if it is not convenient, after killing Xu Shifu, they can announce to the public that he committed suicide.

Anyway, this old dog Xu Shifu really deserves to be killed.

Miaoyin smiled and ground ink for Yunzheng.

"Tell me, where should we live after we return to the Imperial City?"

Miaoyin grinded ink while asking Yun Zheng with a smile, "It seems inappropriate for you not to live in the palace after you return, but if I live in the palace with you, I guess there will be people who are afraid that I will assassinate your father!"

"Shouldn't we live in the palace?"

Yun Zheng smiled, "Didn't the Third Brother burn down the Prince's Mansion? It shouldn't be possible to repair the Prince's Mansion in a short period of time, right? As for the assassination, no one should be worried about it now, right?"

He believed that Miaoyin would no longer think of assassinating Emperor Wen.

Moreover, after returning to the imperial city, he would also have to talk to Emperor Wen about moving the capital.

Given Daqian's current territory, relocation is inevitable.

He believed that Emperor Wen should also be able to see the benefits of moving the capital.

Regarding the location of moving the capital, I wonder if the father and son will agree on this.

Miaoyin smiled: "If you really don't have to live in the palace, Yun Li has done a good thing."

"Don't say it, it's true."

Yun Zheng nodded and smiled, "Actually, I don't want to live in the palace either. There are too many formalities in the palace. It's not as free and easy as living in our own little home!"

Miaoyin pursed her lips and smiled.

Who said no?

Over the years, they have become accustomed to playing and fighting with Yun Zheng, and have also become accustomed to that way of life.

If this happened in the palace, and they were fighting and playing around with Yun Zheng, someone would probably say they were impolite.

Hopefully, after returning to the imperial city, they can still live their small lives!

I hope that the prosperous imperial city will not become a cage to imprison them...
