Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Palace Turmoil Rising (Part 8)

"Master Gu." Mu Qingge suddenly called out.

The silver-haired elder immediately stepped forward.

Her gaze fell upon him and she said calmly, "I need you to have Prince Xian’s people secretly keep a close eye on the Crown Prince and the Empress, to prevent them from escaping. I want to send them to accompany Yong Huan in the afterlife."

Mu Qingge’s cold instructions made Master Gu glance at her but he said nothing further.

After nodding, he left with his people.

Shortly after Master Gu left, Qin Jinhao, clad in black armor, arrived with his men.

He rode on his horse, looking at the bloodstains all over the palace gate, unable to hide the shock in his eyes. At this moment, hardly any corpses could be seen, but judging by the bloodstains, a fierce battle must have occurred.

However, Mu Qingge was unharmed, still riding her horse, and not only her, but her subordinates remained unharmed too. Such terrifying combat strength made him feel intense shock and a strong sense of envy and jealousy.

Nevertheless, he felt even more confident about tonight’s affair.

"Qingge, you weren’t hurt, were you? Don’t worry, once I ascend the throne, I will surely seek justice for you today." Qin Jinhao concealed his inner joy and assured Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge smiled slightly: "For the sake of Prince Rui’s great cause, this is nothing."

This comment seemed to give Qin Jinhao a sense of familiarity, as if this was the attitude Mu Qingge should always have towards him.

He nodded satisfactorily and ordered everyone to charge into the palace.

The night, once peaceful, was abruptly shattered.

The Imperial Palace was in chaos.

Within the Cixiang Palace, the doors were tightly shut.

The Empress Dowager, who should have retired early, was instead sitting on a chair, rubbing Buddha Beads in her hands, mumbling incantations with closed eyes.

Her choice truly responded to the old saying, ’There’s no true affection in the imperial family.’

In this deep palace, everyone’s hearts have been twisted, concerned only about themselves and power.

Hearing the determination in the Grand Empress Dowager’s words, the maid could only sigh and silently retreat to one side.

Soon, Cixiang Palace was tightly guarded by heavy troops, preventing anyone from entering or leaving. Not only was Cixiang Palace like this, but other residences of important figures were the same as well.

The Dragon Tooth Guards were exceptionally fierce, entering the Imperial Palace as if it were unoccupied land.

Even though the Empress and the Crown Prince had prepared in advance, they were still shaken by this overwhelming force.

Qin Jinhao followed closely behind Mu Qingge, reaping immense benefit from the situation.

At this point, the chaos in the Imperial Palace had reached its peak. Meanwhile, outside the palace, Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong quietly left their residences, their whereabouts unknown.
