“Is that so?” Song Jingchen said emotionlessly.
After knowing that Shangguan Yu had even attacked the empress who had raised him, he no longer had any illusions about this person, let alone unnecessary emotions.
Sensing something, Song Jingchen smiled. “I’ll give you the same words.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a row of archers suddenly appeared on the surrounding walls.!!
Shangguan Yu was stunned. Song Jingchen took the opportunity to knock the sword out of his hand and hit his throat.
He was too fast. It was too late for Shangguan Yu to dodge.
His eyes darkened. He quickly pulled someone in front of him and quickly retreated.
Song Jingchen didn’t chase after them. Instead, he turned around to protect Elder Zhao and the others.
He could ignore others, but not only was Elder Zhao Dean Lu’s best friend, but he had also helped him many times.
Song Jingchen naturally couldn’t let anything happen to him.
After confirming that Song Jingchen was not injured, Shen Yijia heaved a sigh of relief. She stood on the wall and shouted, “Stop, or I’ll get someone to shoot you.”
No one paid attention to her.
Lin Mu was embarrassed for her, but when he thought about how this grandaunt had gone to the prison to save them, he thought for a long time before saying, “Madam’s voice was too soft, so they didn’t hear you.”
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “You can stop talking.”
“Then why don’t you do it?” She glanced at Lin Mu coldly.
Lin Mu felt that he was in the wrong and rubbed his nose. “Should we shoot arrows?”
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “Look at your quiver first. Do you still have any arrows left? Besides, can’t you see that my husband is still down there? What if you accidentally injure him?”
Shangguan Yu’s men were everywhere in the palace. They killed everyone they saw, and there were even casualties among the palace maids and eunuchs.
On the way here just now, Lin Mu could not stand it anymore. Not only did he send a portion of the imperial guards to save people everywhere, but he also shot at the rebels along the way. He did save many people on the way to Yangxin Hall, but the quiver was empty.
Shen Yijia couldn’t possibly stop him from saving those people.
She originally wanted to scare Shangguan Yu, but he did not fall for it at all.
How infuriating!
Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks and said angrily, “Go and help. Are all of you just watching the show here?”
With that, she jumped down from the wall, pulled out the long whip at her waist, and vented her anger on the rebels.
Lin Mu was slightly stunned. He noticed the emperor protected in the middle by three secret guards and ordered, “Protect His Majesty. Go!”
The imperial guards jumped off the wall and joined the battle.
Lin Mu rushed to the emperor’s side with a group of people and escorted him back to Yangxin Hall. A few ministers took the opportunity to run in.
The two sides in the courtyard instantly fought. They were all wearing the same clothes, and the scene was chaotic.
Fortunately, in order to differentiate between friend and foe, Lin Mu had already asked the imperial guards to tie a white cloth around their foreheads when they arrived. They did not kill the wrong people.
Most of the rebels in Yangxin Hall were in disguise. Their skills were naturally not something ordinary soldiers could compare to.
However, the imperial guards had more people than them. With a few of them surrounding one, the rebels quickly fell.
However, the imperial guards did not have an overwhelming victory.
One by one, both sides suffered casualties.
Perhaps because he could tell that their chances of winning were higher, the emperor came out to cause trouble.
“Go, call a team back to protect me,” he instructed Lin Mu.
Lin Mu was stunned. He didn’t expect the emperor to still want to take the opportunity to get rid of Song Jingchen.
Without that couple, he would have been locked up as a lunatic.
Lin Mu didn’t want to go. Not to mention that Shen Yijia had saved him twice, he had only gotten his current position as the commander of the imperial guards under Song Jingchen’s guidance.
He could not repay kindness with ingratitude.
Moreover, his brothers were already giving up their lives. If he called a team back, wouldn’t more people die?
However, he could not openly disobey the emperor’s orders.
He was in a dilemma.
Elder Zhao, who was squatting at the side and bandaging Scholar Zhang, exclaimed, “His Majesty has gone crazy again. Commander Lin, quickly find something to tie him up. His Majesty even cut himself when he fell sick.”
The emperor was trembling with anger. He pointed at Elder Zhao and shouted,
“How dare you!”
Scholar Zhang also said, “That’s right. Commander Lin, look, His Majesty is trembling. Do as Elder Zhao says. Otherwise, can you bear the consequences if
His Majesty injures his body later?”
Elder Zhao choked. Why was he repeating his words?
He was so angry that he exerted strength, causing Scholar Zhang to gasp in pain.
The old men from the imperial court were indeed vengeful..
