Even on the way back to the palace, Xiao Jin did not forget to send a secret letter to Xiao Youcheng, asking him to help capture Lao Gongbei Wang alive.

Just as Xiao Jin was about to arrive at the gate of the palace, Xiao Youcheng had sent a letter saying that he would catch Lao Gongbei as much as possible. The letter also gave him a brief account of the war at the south gate.

When Xiao Youcheng arrived with his people, the south gate was already in danger. Qin Shaoyang kept the south gate, but Lao Gongbei Wang was eager to break the city. He ignored everything and attacked like crazy.

There has been a fight near the south gate. There is a shortage of materials at the head of the city. Most of the soldiers have also been separated to the next place. Some have been brought to the west gate by Wei Xin, and some have followed Su Yan and Su Mei to catch the remnants of the rebels. Therefore, Lao Gongbei Wang also seized the opportunity of the weakest defense at the south gate, trying to break through the south gate and enter the capital.

Although Qin Shaoyang didn't have rich experience in the war, he guarded the precarious south gate when Xiao Youcheng led the army according to the strategy set by Xiao Jin and them.

After Xiao Youcheng solved the siege of the south gate, he ordered some people to support the east gate and drive away the remnant of Dongsheng king. He personally took people to help Xiao Jin catch Lao Gongbei king.

When Xiao Jin and others arrived at the gate of the palace, it was already dawn.

The star fell, and a red sun was about to appear in the East, which reflected half of the sky. The Imperial Palace, which had experienced a night of life and death, looked more majestic and solemn in the glow of the morning.

Gao Hequan came to the door almost every once in a while.

Because Pei min tried to detoxify Wei ruoyi with a needle. Instead of alleviating her symptoms, she made her vomit blood once. Her Majesty was almost worried.

Pei min doesn't know whether the blood vomiting is good or bad. Wei ruoyi is still in a coma. Pei min doesn't dare to act rashly now. She just protects her heart.

"Your Highness is back!" Gao Hequan came out this time, just in time for Xiao Jin's men to arrive in front of the palace. His heart suddenly mentioned, "Your Highness, did the thief ever catch him!"

"HMM." Xiao Jin looked grim and was covered with blood. Even though his whole body was bathed in the glow, Gao Hequan still had a feeling that Xiao Jin was walking in a pool of blood and corpse mountain. The killing spirit emitted from him was not cold.

"How's ruoyi?" he was about to dismount and asked.

"Don't dismount!" Gao hequangao raised the jade pendant in his hand. "The emperor has an order to allow Prince Yongning to ride into the palace." after he announced his Majesty's order, he urged Xiao Jin, "Your Highness, hurry. The princess is in the side hall of the imperial study."

"Thank you!" Xiao Jin quickly jumped in from the open palace door and kept walking. He stopped the horse before he went directly to the gate of the imperial study.

I walked into the yard with great strides. As soon as I went in, I saw imperial concubine Chen and Xiao Jin'an kneeling on the roadside.

Their mother and son almost knelt in the middle of the night. They were already depressed. Now they have no spirit. Xiao Jin'an has long been like a pool of mud. Only princess Chen is still trying to die.

Hearing the footsteps, the Chen imperial concubine twisted her stiff neck and looked up. At this look, she immediately raised her body, "Xiao Jin!" she roared with hate.

Unfortunately, her voice is very dull. She didn't drink any water. It's good to make a sound. She has lived in dignity all her life. When has she ever suffered such a crime.

Xiao Jin ignored imperial concubine Chen and strode straight past imperial concubine Chen.

"Xiao Jin!" imperial concubine Chen roared again, "what if you helped your emperor Lao Tze? You are destined to be lonely in your life! Your favorite person has been poisoned. She won't live long! You have killed your mother imperial concubine since you were a child, and now you have killed your mother. What else can you do? If I were you, I'd just die!"

Xiao Jin suddenly stopped and looked down at the Chen imperial concubine with a vicious smile on her face. His eyes were as dark as an endless night, and there were dried up blood stains on his face. The scars on half of his face had gradually faded, but they were unusually prominent at this time, making his face like a mixture of beauty and terror, It gives people a strange and gloomy feeling.

His dark eyes were full of the idea of killing. When he saw it, he felt the blade on his face.

"If she has three long and two short, I won't live alone!" Xiao Jin said in a cold voice, as if she were hit by ice jade without any temperature, "But before I die, I will cut you one by one. You will watch your flesh peel off from your body. I won't let you die, but let you watch yourself cut by a thousand! Until you only have a head left, I will let you swallow your last breath!"

Chen Fei could not help shivering. She wanted to joke that Xiao Jin didn't dare to do so, but looking at his eyes, she was timid.

He really dares!

He's really crazy!

Where can a normal person say such cold words

"So, you'd better hope she can be well," Xiao Jin continued, "this is your only happiness!"

Then he stepped into the study.

When he left, imperial concubine Chen immediately fell to the ground as if her bones and blood had been pulled away. Her hands and feet had no temperature. However, even to her majesty, she was not afraid, but now she felt that her hands and feet were shaking uncontrollably. She glanced at her son, who was still a little angry, but now she was directly stunned.

Sorrow came from her heart, and imperial concubine Chen burst into tears.

His majesty sat on the Dragon chair and saw Xiao Jin stride in. He directly got up, "don't salute. Go in and have a look at Ruo clothes." he supported the table with one hand and waved at Xiao Jin with the other.

Just one night, he felt that he had added a lot of white hair.

He doesn't need to ask. Xiao Jin can return in blood, and the signal of Xiao Youcheng's arrival in the capital has been received. He has completed his dream for so many years to weaken the king's power and completely eliminate the private army in the king's hands.

He did what he had been dreaming of for years, but after that?

He looked at Xiao Jin's hurried fist to him and hurried into the side hall. Unexpectedly, he felt a burst of emptiness and loss.

The blood on Xiao Jin shows that many people died tonight.

He is a high emperor. He doesn't know the truth that one will succeed forever. He thinks he has always been hard hearted, but now at the moment of Xiao Jin's return, he really feels wrong.

He always told himself that he was first an emperor, then his wife's husband and his son's father.

But now, he suddenly felt that the emperor was really tired. He was not what he was. He had not enjoyed what ordinary people should enjoy for a long time.

Although he had everything, he seemed to have nothing in the moment. Who was the person who accompanied him after a hundred years? no one! His memorial tablet will be enshrined in the ancestral temple, and his coffin will be placed in the imperial mausoleum.

No one will really long live. He will get sick, die and turn into white bones like ordinary people

Xiao Jin has people who are concerned about him, but also people who are concerned about him, so who will care about him? Who did he really care about?

Your majesty decadent sat back on the Dragon chair and suddenly felt that the chair was really too big! It's also very hard, because to maintain dignity and honor, there is almost nothing comfortable on the chair. He has been sitting in such a place for so many years!

That night, he didn't worry about his empire. All his worries were spent on Wei ruoyi, his daughter-in-law, his son's favorite girl, and his grandson was pregnant in her body. Life was so endless, strong and fragile

For the first time tonight, he thought of himself not as an emperor, but as a grandfather. His family was fighting for life and death, but he just sat aside and couldn't do anything. Even if he was rich, what about the world?

It's so hard to keep a person's life!

Xiao Jin shook her hands and legs when she stepped into the side hall.

Although others saw him walking calmly, only he knew he was gritting his teeth.

When his eyes touched the soft couch where people were lying, his heart was already bleeding, and his heart was collapsing a little... He even dared not approach... He was so eager to return to her side.

"Uncle." Wei Geng was the first to find Xiao Jin coming in. He was stunned, and then trembled and called Xiao Jin.

He was very tired. A lot of internal power had been poured into Wei ruoyi's body to stop the spread of poison gas. He almost didn't dare to blink for fear that the princess would happen at the moment of blinking.

When Wei Geng called, the palace maids and Pei min found that Xiao Jin had stood behind them in silence.

The palace maids Rao was well-trained and couldn't help shouting a little.

This man is like an evil ghost climbing up from hell. Although his clothes look like a ghost, he can't see the original texture now. Almost the whole person has been soaked in blood, and his whole body emits a strong smell of blood. Even his clothes are wet, as if his blood drops all the way.

Where have the palace maids seen such people? They are scared to retreat and hide one after another. Changes in the palace make people feel insecure. Who is not afraid at the bottom of their heart?

"What? This is Prince Yongning's highness." Pei minduan drank and stopped the flustered palace maids. He stood up and saluted, "Your Highness, have you ever been injured? Let your highness see it."

Peimin gets out of the way. Xiao Jin sees the person who was originally covered by Peimin.

His heart seemed to be grabbed and pulled outward. The tearing pain almost made him a little unstable.

All his calmness, self-control and strength, when his eyes touched the motionless Wei Ruo clothes lying on his back, he was completely defeated.

As soon as his knees softened, the man fell forward.

"Your Highness!"

"Uncle!"

Pei min and Wei Geng were shocked and reached out to help.

When they touched Xiao Jin's arm, the two people were surprised. How cold this man's hand was, it was like a piece of ice.

"I'm fine." Xiao Jin tried to calm her mood and held Peimin's arm, "she in the end..."

"It's stable now." Pei min hurriedly said, "the imperial doctors in the Quantai hospital are studying the poison in the empress. At present, the lower officer doesn't dare to detoxify rashly, lest he hurt the empress and her children. But the lower officer doesn't know how long such stability can last. Did your highness ever take Xiao Ziya?"

"Take it, Wei Xin has brought him into the palace. I've asked Huajin hall and Chen Yifan to come and ask him for an antidote." Xiao Jin calmed her mind and said. Then he turned his eyes to Wei ruoyi, "can I... Can I touch her?"

Pei min looked at Xiao Jin's eyes, but her nose was sour. "It's OK." a tough man like your highness now showed a look of fear

Xiao Jin stretched out her hand towards Wei ruoyi and stopped at the moment when her fingertips had not touched her skin.

"Your Highness, the empress is stable now and will be fine." Peimin thought Xiao Jin was afraid that he would damage Wei ruo's clothes, so she hurriedly comforted.

"No, i... it's too dirty." Xiao Jin burst into tears at the bottom of her eyes. "I'll come soon." then he got up and walked out quickly.

He walked as if he had fled the scene, and his back was bleak, which made people feel uncomfortable.

"Father emperor, my son and minister asked for some bath water and clean clothes." Xiao Jin stumbled outside and said to her majesty.

"OK, just tell me what you want." Your Majesty looked at his son's mud and blood, and his eyes couldn't help wetting up. He ordered him to go down and prepare whatever Xiao Jin wanted without any delay.

Before long, Xiao Jin took hot water from a palace behind the side hall and washed herself a little bit. He simply bandaged the wound on his shoulder, not for himself, but for fear that his bloody gas would collide with Ruo Yi.

She must like her clean self, not the one just covered with blood.

She doesn't like her injury, so she can't see his new injury.

In front of her, he will always be beautiful, because she said that she likes the beautiful him... The handsome him

After taking a clean white robe, Xiao Jin put on her clothes meticulously, and then sorted out her wet hair. Only then did she return to the side hall where ruoyi was located.

Seeing Xiao Jin reappear in the side hall, Pei min pulls Wei Geng and stands up from the ground.

"Let's go out," he whispered to Wei Geng.

Then he turned his eyes and said to Xiao Jin, "Your Highness, please stay alone with the princess for a while. The lower officer is outside. If your highness needs it, just call."

"OK. Thanks a lot." Xiao Jin held back her emotions and calmly hugged Peimin.
