Marry a Duke

Chapter 303 Sneaking into the Palace

The princess has ordered all entrances to be closed, allowing only exit but not entry.

If you want to leave, you have to consider your own weight. If your weight is not enough, you will die as soon as you ask for it.

Emperor Tianyuan locked himself in the imperial study, refusing to eat or drink, and never again entered the harem.

Now, the harem has become the eldest princess's territory, and all the concubines in the harem are controlled by the eldest princess's people. They can only obey orders and cannot move at all.

They had no way to contact people outside, and could not get their natal family members to come into the palace to help.

We can only wait until the emperor comes up with a better solution.

Once the emperor really dies, I'm afraid that the concubines in the harem will not have a good ending.

The eldest princess even harmed her own brother.

What's more, these people have no blood relationship with her at all, so she will only keep those who she can use.

The concubines were locked up in their own palaces and were not allowed to go out.

"Eunuch Liu, hasn't Xiao Chunzi replied yet?" The only thing Emperor Tianyuan could count on was this little eunuch to send the message off.

If Wei Xuan didn’t receive it.

His luck is really running out.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Chunzi has not returned yet." Eunuch Liu also had a serious look on his face. It was not easy to leave the palace. Even if Xiao Chunzi left the palace smoothly, I'm afraid that there would be people arranged by the eldest princess watching outside the Weiguo Mansion.

He only hoped that Xiao Chunzi could still be alive and well and successfully convey the message to Duke Weiguo.

Otherwise, the world will change.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. Xiao Chunzi knows the secret passage. No one in the inner palace guards knows about it. He will be able to deliver the letter successfully. We just need to wait patiently. Once the Duke of Weiguo receives the news, as long as he wants to enter the palace, no one will be able to stop him."

Eunuch Liu could only think positively and speak positively to appease the emperor.

The ruler of a country has fallen to such a state.

Is the most painful.

"You go outside and listen. If you have any news, report back immediately."

"Yes."

Although Eunuch Liu agreed, there were not many places he could go. The eldest princess ordered people to keep an eye on the emperor. He was the eunuch who was close to the emperor and held the seal, so naturally they kept an eye on him.

Once he got away from them, he would be driven back by the palace guards.

He didn't dare to use brute force, for fear that they would really take action.

After waiting for half a day and still having no news, Eunuch Liu became more and more anxious.

It's getting dark too.

He could only prepare himself to stay awake all night.

Near midnight, there was suddenly movement coming from Qianyuan Gate.

Fire shot into the sky.

Eunuch Liu's heart skipped a beat.

Go inside immediately and report to Emperor Mingyuan.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is movement at Qianyuan Gate. It must be the Duke of Weiguo coming."

"Really?" Emperor Tianyuan's eyes lit up.

"That's good, that's good. As long as Wei Xuan comes, I will be saved."

Eunuch Liu thought so too.

He was just about to go out to get some information when suddenly a dark shadow landed silently beside him. He was startled and fell out completely unable to control himself.

"what--."

He didn't dare shout out loud.

At first glance, it was Wei Xuan dressed in black.

"Wei, Duke Wei..." Eunuch Liu was shocked. "If Duke Wei entered the palace, then what's going on at Qianyuan Gate?"

"That's Hu Youyu leading the imperial guards in. I'm here to save the emperor first."

Emperor Tianyuan had been on edge the whole day, but when he saw Wei Xuan, he seemed to completely relax.

At that moment, he fainted.

"Bring a handful of the eunuch's clothes here and change them for the emperor."

"Yes."

Eunuch Liu went to the next room and found a set of clean clothes that he usually kept there. Since he was serving in the emperor's presence, mistakes were inevitable, so he did this to prepare for any emergency.

Now it finally comes in handy.

The two of them changed clothes for Emperor Tianyuan.

Wei Xuan carried Emperor Tianyuan out of the imperial study.

"Eunuch Liu, find a safe place to hide. If the princess comes looking for you and doesn't see the emperor, she will definitely kill you. I will take care of the emperor and go to rescue the princess."

"Yes." Eunuch Liu was very respectful. "Thank you, Duke Weiguo, for reminding me."

Kindness without saying thanks.

Eunuch Liu hurriedly found a secret place to hide.

He was familiar with the area and it was easy for him to find a relatively safe place.

If we drag the emperor along, there will be nowhere to put him.

Now that Duke Weiguo has entered the palace, his presence is a reassurance.

He didn't have to worry that the emperor would really fall into the hands of the eldest princess.

Wei Xuan pressed the acupoints on Emperor Tianyuan, handed him over to Gao Mian, and placed him in a safe place.

At any time, he went to Baohe Palace.

The eldest princess lives in Baohe Palace.

This was the palace where the eldest princess lived in the palace. After she got married and left the palace, Baohe Palace remained vacant and was kept for her so that she could live there after she returned to the palace.

The eldest princess had already heard the noise outside. She selected some people and was about to go to the imperial study to find Emperor Tianyuan.

Emperor Tianyuan is in her hands, so even if Wei Xuan rushes in, he dare not act recklessly.

At that time, she threatened Wei Xuan with Emperor Tianyuan's life, and Wei Xuan committed suicide.

If Wei Xuan did not commit suicide, he would be a disloyal minister.

If he committed suicide, everything would be as she wished.

No matter what, Wei Xuan would not be able to escape unscathed.

"Act immediately as planned."

"Yes."

The eldest princess met Wei Xuan outside the imperial study.

He was dressed in black, like a devil in the darkness.

The guards protected the eldest princess among them.

"Wei Xuan, you entered the palace without being summoned, which is a capital crime." The eldest princess shouted.

"No summons? Princess, you are just a princess, not the Queen of Dayue. It is not your turn to summon the palace. This duke can go wherever he wants. Do you think that the people you arranged can stop this duke?"

Wei Xuan's words were quite arrogant.

At this time, the princess was surrounded by more than a hundred guards, and Wei Xuan was the only one.

Before, Wei Xuan could kill dozens of people alone, but now there are more than a hundred people. He has the advantage in numbers, and Wei Xuan may not be able to kill them all alone.

Even if it is a round-robin battle, it will still consume a lot of his energy.

"Did you arrange the person who broke into the palace?" The princess looked into the imperial study and saw that the lights were still on.

"The princess has held the emperor hostage and is using the red stone powder to control these guards. You don't think that each of them can compare to the Fire Hunting people, do you?" Otherwise, she would not dare to be so arrogant.

The eldest princess was indeed threatened by the Red Stone Powder.

They were asked to take large amounts of red stone powder to stimulate their strength.

"What? You can kill thirty Fire Hunters, but I don't believe you can kill three hundred."

"Whether the royal family can kill three hundred people, the princess may not be lucky enough to see it, but - what you gave the guards was not the red stone powder."

what?

As soon as these words were spoken, the guards immediately panicked.

It was because the eldest princess had been threatening them with the red stone powder and even with the lives of their family members that they had no choice but to work for her.

But now they are told that what they are taking is not Chishisan.

"You're talking nonsense." The eldest princess was shocked. It was impossible.

Wei Xuan sneered.

"The princess has found a good place to hide your Red Stone Powder. Unfortunately, there is no absolutely secret place in this world." He gave an address in front of the princess.

The eldest princess turned pale at the moment.
