The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 206: The 3rd Prince’s Rebellion (1)

Tang Peipei took a deep breath and said, "Jintang accidentally discovered that the weapons in the military camp were inconsistent with the registered weapons, and later found out that the Third Prince had a private army of up to 100,000. Song Yichen is the fiancé of my cousin, and in order to avoid complications, Jintang asked Song Yichen to check. As a result, Song Yichen was almost silenced because of this matter. If it weren't for my good medical skills, I'm afraid he would have died..."

The more the emperor listened, the more frightened and angry he became, and he almost sat up from the bed.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem... OK, OK, you are truly my good son."

Seeing that the emperor was so angry that he was about to die at any time, Tang Peipei hurried forward, took out a silver needle and stabbed him.

The emperor immediately felt better.

Tang Peipei originally thought that since he was going to say it, he might as well say everything at once.

However, seeing the emperor's expression, he thought about it and decided to give up.

Let's wait for the final result.

Tang Peipei asked Eunuch Du to feed the emperor the prepared medicine, and then gave him another acupuncture and let the emperor sleep again.

The sky gradually darkened and was covered with dark clouds.

"I'm afraid it's going to rain." Tang Peipei pulled his clothes closer, feeling a little chilly.

The palace behind him was brightly lit, and palace servants were coming and going, busy at work.

The emperor was now sitting upright on the dragon throne, dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a solemn expression. There was no trace of sickness on his face anymore. Only the occasional cough betrayed him.

The rain fell sparsely.

Eunuch Du walked up to Tang Peipei and whispered, "Madam Mu, the general asked you to get out of the way."

Tang Peipei shook her head, "No need."

Eunuch Du wanted to persuade him again.

Tang Peipei looked at the palace lanterns that were slowly lighting up, and the sparse rain, and said, "I will be careful to follow His Majesty. If the plan succeeds and His Majesty is fine, then I will be fine too. But if the plan fails, I think they will find me even if I hide. So, there is really no need."

Are you afraid of death? Of course you are.

She died once, and would always remember that painful feeling. She didn't want it to happen again.

But what’s the use of being afraid?

Since it's useless, just face it calmly.

A young eunuch stumbled towards them.

Eunuch Du quickly stopped the man and asked, "Why are you so panicked?"

The young eunuch swallowed his saliva, wiped the rain that blocked his vision, and said, "Eunuch Du, it's bad. The third prince has brought a hundred thousand troops to attack the city, and they are about to break through."

Eunuch Du and Tang Peipei looked at each other and saw two words in each other's eyes.

coming! ! !

Mu Jintang stood on the city wall, looking at the darkness in the distance, his heart filled with complicated emotions.

He recalled the days of killing enemies on the frontier, and remembered that most of the souls killed by his sword came from foreign countries.

Unexpectedly, now, he was standing on the city wall of the capital, facing his compatriots, who might become the dead under his sword just like the foreign soldiers.

As night fell, the entire capital was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

The Third Prince's army had already approached the city wall. Although Mu Jintang's army fought hard, they gradually seemed unable to cope with the absolute numerical advantage.

Unexpectedly, the third prince actually had another trick up his sleeve.

The army he led was exactly twice as large.

Mu Jintang saw an unexpected person.

That was Wei Lan, who had fought with him and was later transferred to Dianzhou as a garrison commander.

This person is also considered brave.

I didn't expect that he would follow the third prince.

And I'm afraid he had already quietly entered Beijing and was placed in a place, ready to be on standby at any time.

Mu Jintang simply couldn't bear to think about it.

Wei Lan brought at least 60,000 to 70,000 people with her. How come no one noticed that so many people left and came to the capital?

It seems that there are definitely problems whether it is the officials in the capital or in the local areas.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Mu Jintang took the remaining people, quietly split up into small groups, and rushed towards the palace.

Mu Jintang's departure accelerated the Third Prince's siege of the city.

The Third Prince's men broke open the city gate and cheered to welcome the Third Prince into the city.

The third prince rode a tall horse, holding a long sword high in his hand, "My sons, you are all great. Follow me into the palace, clear out the emperor's entourage, and set things right!"

When the emperor heard in the palace that the third prince was actually acting in the name of clearing the court of corrupt officials, he was so angry that he almost fainted.

Fortunately, I tried hard to calm down, and with Tang Peipei by my side, I finally managed to stabilize myself.

The third prince rushed into the palace with his soldiers and saw the emperor sitting as steady as a rock on the dragon throne, with Tang Peipei and Eunuch Du standing on both sides of him.

But his face was not as sickly as he had seen before.

The third prince frowned slightly, but soon laughed again. It was just the last resort.

The emperor looked at the Third Prince who was standing below with a smug smile on his face, and asked coldly, "Bai Hejia, you evil creature, how dare you openly rebel?"

The third prince looked at the emperor, a complex emotion welling up in his heart.

The man in front of him is his father.

He remembered that his mother often said that when he was born, his father was extremely happy and said that he finally had a legitimate son and that there was someone to carry on the family line.

Later, when he reached school age, he found the best teachers to teach him, and he studied hard because he didn't want to disappoint his father.

When he was young, his father would always test him on his knowledge, and he would always be so nervous that he would forget the correct answers.

Later, his father stopped testing him and gradually stopped coming to his mother's palace.

His mother even blamed him, saying that he didn't work hard enough to help her keep her father.

But the mother herself was not very liked by the father, so why blame him? He was just a child, after all.

Now, even though he was considered the most outstanding among his many sons, he still forgot what he had said and was unwilling to make himself the crown prince.

But he was his legitimate son, his only legitimate son.

Why was he unwilling to make him the crown prince?

hehe~~

But, what does it matter? Since he is unwilling to hand over his kingdom to him, then he can take it himself.

The Third Prince was silent for a moment, then he slowly said, "Father, you are wrong. I am not plotting a rebellion. I am trying to save you. Don't be afraid. I am already here. Once I kill all these rubbish, you will be free."

The emperor tried hard to control his temper and said coldly: "Do you think that if you say this and announce it to the world, people will believe you? You are just a beast, an ungrateful wolf who can never be tamed."

The third prince also showed no sign of weakness and said, "Don't worry, father. After I kill all these people and sit on the supreme position, people will have to believe whatever I want them to believe, even if they don't want to. At that time, I will have the final say in the world. Haha~~" The third prince spread his arms, as if he was already the master of the world.

The Third Prince looked at the Emperor coldly, then ordered Wei Lan behind him: "Go, take him down."
