Chapter 302 Rebellion
"Hurry, the Queen has started." The midwife said hurriedly after seeing Gu Shijin's reaction.
All of a sudden, everyone in Chenhua Palace started moving.
This was not Gu Shijin's first time giving birth, so she had some experience. She listened to the midwife's instructions and exerted herself.
Gu Chengfeng was waiting outside, and frowned when he heard his sister's voice inside. He must make sure the baby was born smoothly.
"Empress Rong has arrived." Suddenly, the eunuch's announcement was heard outside Chenhua Palace.
Gu Chengfeng's expression changed, and he went to the gate of Chenhua Palace with a few guards.
Because his own sister is in the harem, Gu Chengfeng has a certain understanding of the people in the harem.
Concubine Rong is the biological mother of the eldest prince and has a high status in the harem, but why did she come to Chenhua Palace today? This person has no connection with her sister.
Gu Chengfeng took a look and saw that Concubine Rong was not the only one who came. She was followed by Concubine Yang, Noble Lady Wang and Noble Lady Wen.
"Your humble servant greets Concubine Rong and all the ladies." Gu Chengfeng bowed.
"Deputy Commander Gu, there's no need to be so polite." Concubine Rong saw Gu Chengfeng's eyes flicker.
In the assassination attempt of the emperor by the Shangguan clan, Gu Chengfeng made great contributions and was promoted by Lu Junze to deputy commander of the imperial guards.
"What is the purpose of Concubine Rong's visit to Chenhua Palace?" Gu Chengfeng asked neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"I heard that Imperial Concubine Chen had given birth, so I thought I'd come over to see if there's anything I can do to help." Concubine Rong looked a little unhappy. Even a deputy commander of the Imperial Guards dared to block her way.
"Thank you, Empress Rong. Everything is fine in Chenhua Palace. Please go back, Empress Rong." Gu Chengfeng said.
"How dare you! You are just a guard, yet you dare to block Concubine Rong's way." Concubine Wang pointed at Gu Chengfeng and shouted.
"Your Majesty, I am on duty here under the order of the Emperor. No one is allowed to enter the Chenhua Palace." Gu Chengfeng did not give in.
It's obvious that Concubine Rong has bad intentions with these few people. Gu Chengfeng will not let them go in and harm his sister.
Concubine Rong gave a very forced smile and said, "Deputy Commander Gu may have some misunderstanding about me. I am only here to help."
"Sister Rong Fei, I wonder if Sister Rong Fei can help the Imperial Concubine in any way?" At this time, Concubine Lan came.
She didn't come alone, she was followed by Feng Zhaoyi and others.
"Greetings to Concubine Lan and Concubine Feng."
"Meet the Concubine Rong."
As soon as the two parties met, there was a sense of tension.
"Sister Rong Fei, how come you have time to come to Chenhua Palace today?" What's wrong with Rong Fei? Hasn't she been cultivating herself for a long time? Why did she come to Chenhua Palace to make trouble today? She didn't even notice what day it was, and she was with Yangpin and Wang Guiren. Doesn't she know who these people are?
Rong Fei certainly knew who these people were, and she also knew that if she did this today, it would be the end of her, but she had no choice, she had to consider her children.
There is no mother who doesn't want her child to be healthy. Now there is a way to restore the eldest prince's ears, and Concubine Rong must not miss it.
"Sister Lan Fei." Rong Fei forced a smile.
"Sister Rongfei, if I remember correctly, the emperor asked me to assist in managing the six palaces. How can Sister Rongfei help by coming to the Imperial Concubine's Chenhua Palace?" Concubine Lan said bluntly.
You don’t even have the right to assist in managing the six palaces. You are just a concubine of a higher rank.
Concubine Lan's words were so impolite that even Concubine Rong, who usually had a good attitude, couldn't help but blush with anger.
Gu Chengfeng felt relieved when he saw Concubine Lan and Concubine Rong confronting each other. After all, Concubine Rong was the emperor's concubine. If she tried to force her way in, it would be difficult for Gu Chengfeng to deal with her.
"You stay here and don't allow anyone to enter Chenhua Palace." Gu Chengfeng pointed to a few guards and said.
"Yes, Deputy Commander Gu."
Gu Chengfeng was worried about Gu Shijin, so he turned around and went in.
……
Outside the virtuous king, he met the commander of the imperial guards at the last palace gate.
"Commander Zhao." The wise king was not panicked at all. He looked at Commander Zhao and greeted him with a smile.
"Your Majesty."
"His Majesty's decree ordered the prince to come to Beijing at the end of October. Why did the prince come now? And he brought so many people into the palace with him." Commander Zhao said, pointing at a group of people behind the virtuous king.
"Now that things have come to this, I will not talk nonsense with Commander Zhao. I wonder if Commander Zhao is willing to give me a favor?" said the wise king.
Commander Zhao seemed to have just realized something. His face changed drastically. He looked at the virtuous king and said, "Your Highness, you dare to rebel!"
"Hahaha, Commander Zhao has just reacted?" The wise king laughed twice.
"Your Highness, I advise you to surrender. There are so many imperial guards in the palace, and it is not something that a few of your men can resist." Commander Zhao said without any panic.
"Really? Then there is no need for Commander Zhao to worry about me." The wise king was now overwhelmed by the impending victory and did not feel that there was anything wrong at all.
"Deputy Commander Liu." The wise king shouted at the person next to Commander Zhao.
Upon hearing this, Deputy Commander Liu immediately took Commander Zhao hostage with a knife.
"Commander, I'm sorry." Deputy Commander Liu said.
Commander Zhao's face changed and he shouted angrily, "Deputy Commander Zhao! How dare you betray the emperor!"
"Humph! People die for money and birds die for food." Deputy Commander Zhao said.
The offer from the wise king was too much, and he couldn't refuse it. If he accepted a salary, he would never get that much money in his life.
"Everyone get out of the way." Deputy Commander Zhao said while holding Commander Liu hostage.
When the imperial guards saw that their leader had been taken hostage, they panicked and could not stop retreating.
The virtuous king sneered and walked confidently towards the Taiji Hall.
He had to find the jade seal first, since Lu Junze was not available in Chenhua Palace.
So once a person starts to act stupidly, there is no way to stop him.
Even the several aides around the wise king felt that something was wrong. This should not be the configuration of the palace. Why would there be only so few soldiers in the palace and such lax management?
"Your Highness, something is wrong." One of the aides stopped the wise king and said.
"What's wrong?" The wise king was actually a little worried.
He has come all this way, why hasn't his mother appeared yet? This is different from what they discussed.
Where is the Concubine Dowager? She is naturally in the Cining Palace.
"Empress Dowager, what do you mean by this?" The concubine asked the empress dowager who was blocking her way.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Does the Concubine miss the virtuous king?"
"Don't worry, sister. The virtuous king will be here to accompany you soon."
The concubine's expression suddenly became very ugly. She said, "Sister, are you not worried about the King of Qin at all?"
"Then there is no need for you to worry, my sister. The King of Qin is fine."
The concubine understood that it must be Song Jibai, who was beside Lu Junze, who cured the poison.
