Chapter 394

The eunuch led Mrs. Dong and Miss Dong to the imperial study room. When they were approaching the imperial study room, several guards with swords followed behind them.

Mrs. Dong glanced back, scared out of her wits.

Seeing that their whereabouts had been exposed, those guards stepped forward, two pairs, and escorted the ladies and wives of the Dong family to the imperial study room like prisoners.

The two ladies were so frightened that they began to cry. Mrs. Dong asked in a trembling voice, "What are you doing? Didn't you say that my master has a happy event?"

Looking at this posture, could it be that Mr. Dong has been imprisoned?

The two ladies were crying miserably, and their voices had already reached the Imperial Study Room.

Dong Zhiyan's face turned pale when he heard the voice, and the beard on his lips trembled uncontrollably.Listen to the voice, it's his daughter!

Xian Wang chuckled, very satisfied with Dong Zhiyan's reaction.

"My lord Dong, I will give you another chance. When do you think I should hold the enthronement ceremony?" Xian Wang asked leisurely.

The left ear is the voice of the wise king, and the right ear is the cry of the daughters.

Big beads of sweat appeared on Dong Zhiyan's forehead.

He spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse, "Weichen...Weichen thinks it's not too late to wait for His Highness to return from victory before the enthronement ceremony."

"Hmph, you're still stubborn." King Xian ordered a few words to the guards around him with fierce eyes.

The guard ran out, and after a while, there was a woman's shrill cry, followed by a woman's cry.

The woman's cries were heart-rending, tearing the peaceful night to pieces.

Dong Zhiyan closed his eyes and shed two lines of clear tears.

The Xian King asked again: "Master Dong, I will give you another chance, have you changed your mind?"

Dong Zhiyan glanced back, he knew that most of the ministers acted according to his wishes.As long as he lets go, those ministers will all support the meaning of the virtuous king.

But when he thought that the capital lost three cities in a row because of King Xian's return without permission, and that King Xian was not clearly involved in the case of Mr. Huang and Princess Kang Yuechang, he could not support King Xian without knowing it.

"Weichen still means that. It won't be too late for the enthronement ceremony after His Highness returns from victory." Every word Dong Zhiyan uttered was laced with tears of blood and firm determination.

King Xian clenched his fists, and smiled angrily, "How polite is this king to you, do you think this king has nothing to do with you? Come, send Mr. Dong's wives and daughters to the road together!"

Dong Zhiyan closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said nothing, let alone changed his words.

"What about you!" Xian Wang pointed to the ministers behind Dong Zhiyan, "Are you also like him?"

King Xian had just finished speaking when two miserable voices sounded from outside.

Those ministers finally knew what it was.

They bowed their heads, hiding their faces in the shadows.

King Xian glanced at the sky and sneered.There are still several hours before dawn, and he can have fun with these people.

The miserable cry here also spread to the Hall of Great Harmony.

The wives and ladies who were still sleepy all cheered up and looked towards the entrance of the main hall, trying to see some clues.

Those who have made good friends with the Dong family have identified those screams as belonging to Mrs. Dong and the two Miss Dong.

It's obviously to thank you, but why does the sound sound like a scream before death?
Recalling those screams, Mu Qingqiu shuddered, leaned closer to Fang's side, and said in a low voice; "Mother, when the second sister comes back, we can go home, okay?"

Fang remained silent, covering Mu Qingqiu's mouth.

Fang looked at Mrs. Mu's unmoving back, and felt a little relieved.

Mrs. Mu is someone who has experienced big storms, if she is still calm, there must be nothing serious.

After a while, the eunuch who had taken Mrs. Dong's family and the lady away came in. He also went to talk to the imperial concubine and Feng Rong first. The imperial concubine sent someone to call over the wife and young ladies of Li Shangshu's family.

Mrs. Li walked over with a few daughters, only to hear that the imperial concubine still spoke the same words.

Mrs. Li turned her head to look at the young ladies who were as beautiful as flowers and jade, and then said: "Madam, those are men's affairs, so we won't follow along to join in the fun."

Feng Rong reprimanded: "Go if you are told, don't talk nonsense!"

Madam Li's face changed, Feng Rong was just a junior, logically, seeing her, he should have saluted her.

She actually yelled at her now, if it wasn't for the fact that the imperial concubine was on the side, she would have lost her temper a long time ago.

"Your Majesty, the minister's wife is still not going." Mrs. Li restrained her anger and said.

"Heh, it's not up to you to decide here. Somebody here, take them there." Feng Rong waved to the people behind him.

The maid behind him came out and forcibly dragged the Li family members out.

These court ladies are not like ordinary court ladies, each of them is powerful, the members of the Li family have no power to resist and can only be dragged out.

The young ladies of the Li family were so frightened that they cried. They were afraid that they would end up like Miss Dong's.

Mrs. Li said angrily: "What is your mother doing? Didn't she tell us to thank you, why did you do that?"

The imperial concubine's face was gloomy and she didn't speak.

Feng Rong urged impatiently: "It's too noisy, hurry up and pull them out!"

The maids obeyed and quickly dragged the Li family members out.

After this incident, the ladies and ladies in the hall were all in a panic, and some timid ones were already sobbing softly.

Another lady wanted to say goodbye to the imperial concubine, but she was still blocked.

Not long after the members of the Li family went out, a woman's scream sounded again from a distance.

Guo Nian'er shrank into Mrs. Mu's arms in fright, and asked anxiously, "Grandmother, why hasn't cousin come back yet?"

"Yu'er is safe with the princess," Madam Mu comforted Guo Nian'er, "Don't be afraid, my wife will support the sky when it falls."

Guo Nian'er was a little relieved.

At this time, Mu Qingyu and others successfully found the small door hidden in the East Palace, and left the palace where murderous intentions were hidden.

The three ran out quietly, only to see many officers and soldiers patrolling the street.

Mu Qingyu's attire was very conspicuous, if those officers and soldiers saw it, they would have to be arrested and questioned carefully.

The three of them had no choice but to hide first, waiting for the patrolling officers and soldiers to go far away, and then the three of them went to Jinwang Mansion.

But a group of officers and soldiers went away, and another group of officers and soldiers came.

Mu Qingyu could only wait patiently for the right time.

He only heard the door of the palace open, and a team of imperial guards came out from inside.

The guards left the palace and scattered in all directions on horseback.

Every time they encountered a team of patrolling officers and soldiers, the imperial guards would stop and give a few words of advice.

"The second young lady of Dingguo's mansion has slipped out of the palace. If you see her, you will take her into the palace immediately!"

The three of Mu Qingyu, who were hiding in the dark, felt chilled when they heard this.

"Mommy, it's not okay to go on like this." Mu Qingyu said thoughtfully.
