Chapter 369: Imprisoned in the Cold Palace
if they are skilled warriors, they won't be able to break through the defenses. There are so many guards outside your courtyard, it would be impossible for just a few of them to get in."Mo Hengzhi al...Yunsi and Yunliu looked at each other, naturally understanding the meaning behind Zhouyou's words.
I have to admit, Zhou You is truly a seasoned veteran of the political scene. Everything he does has its reason behind it.
Zhou You also knew that the relationship between the emperor and their prince had reached a freezing point. Zhou You could also see that their prince was probably going to break the ice, and this day... things were bound to change.
The emperor had three thousand beauties in his harem. Once a dynasty changed, these women in the palace would find it hard to survive. Zhou You saw this clearly and made arrangements for his daughter, who was also De Fei Fu Lu, in advance.
As for the situation Zhou You was facing, Yun Si and Yun Liu didn't say much. At this time, the two bowed to Zhou You one after another.
Yun Si spoke up, "Today, Marquis Zhou's kindness Yun Si will definitely tell our Prince truthfully. As for our Prince's character, I think there's no need for me to say more; Marquis Zhou understands. Regarding Marquis Zhou's conditions, our Prince should be able to fulfill them."
Upon hearing Yun Si's words, Zhou You felt a wave of relief wash over him. "There isn't much I can do. The emperor planning to send troops was something I overheard during a casual drink with the Minister of War. All I can do is inform you all about it. As for what happens next, that's up to your Highness,"
Yun Si and Yun Liu nodded, “We understand. No matter what, thank you, Zhou Shangshu.”
Next, Yun Si and Yun Liu asked about where the Imperial Guard was keeping Mo Yunjing, but Zhou You truly didn't know, so they could only leave disappointed.
As the two snuck back to the Bei Jiang Wangfu, they discovered that everyone inside was under control. They couldn't get in, and those inside couldn't get out.
What's going on inside is a mystery, even Cloud Four and Cloud Six don't know.
Fortunately, they still had other safe houses within the capital city. The two of them went to the secret base and reunited with the rest of the Yun family army.
They had just arrived at the base when the petite Eleven appeared and rushed to them, "Fourth Brother, Sixth Brother, you're back."
Yun Si's face was somber. "Shi Yi, how is the Prince doing now"
Yun Eleven is a dark guard, and so are those from Eleven to Nineteen. These dark guards are all relatively petite in stature, usually lurking in the shadows to protect Mo Yunjing, An Xuetang, and Mo Junyi among others.
This time out, Mo Yunjing left those from twelve to nineteen in Beijang. He only brought eleven with him as his shadow guard.
Eleven frowned, "Fourth Brother, the Prince wasn't taken back to the Imperial Guard's prison. He was taken directly into the palace. I saw him before I came back, he is right now in the cold palace where the former Empress used to reside."
The former empress, also known as the mother of the late Emperor Mo Yunjing and the late Crown Prince Mo Yunchen.
What on earth does this emperor want He's actually imprisoned the King of Beifang in that cold palace.
Yun Si pursed her lips and thought for a moment, "The palace works too. Let's prepare, we'll act tonight and rescue the prince."
"Fourth Brother cannot." Eleventh shook her head helplessly. "Before returning, I saw the King. He told us not to act rashly first, and he gave me a letter to be personally delivered to Lan Guo, to...the Emperor of Lan Guo."
Eleven almost slipped up and wanted to call the Blue Country Emperor, who was no longer Yun Er, "second brother."
"The prince wants you to go there in person"
Yun Si frowned deeply in strong disagreement. You see, most of the Cloud Family Army's masters had been left with the Princess and the Prince by the King.
Even the most skilled of the dark guards, Eleventh, has gone to Lan Country. What about the capital city now Right now, there's only him and Cloud Six in the capital. If the Emperor makes any moves, he doesn't have the confidence that he and Cloud Six alone can safely rescue their prince.
Shiyi pursed her lips, "I don't agree with me going personally either, but the Prince specifically ordered me to go myself."
This is an order, and they can't disobey it, which is why he's in such a rush to get back and tell Yun Si and Yun Liu where the prince is being held.
Yunsi and Yunliu looked at each other. Both knew they couldn't disobey Mo Yunjing's orders, so they could only agree to let Eleven go quickly and return swiftly.
Yunliu at this moment also didn't know what he was thinking about, he widened his eyes, immediately turned around and hurried to the table beside him where the writing brushes and ink were placed:
"Shi Yi, you are going to Lan Guo, and you will have to pass through Bei Jiang first. Wait for me a moment, I will write a letter for you. Before you go to Lan Guo, you must deliver it to the Princess's hands."
In the midst of their conversation, he had already set up his writing implements and begun to write. Yunliu couldn't understand why, but she felt that telling the Empress about the Emperor's plan to send troops to the Northern Border could resolve everything.
Thus, Yunliu informed An Xuetang of the current situation in the capital city and Emperor's plan to send troops to attack Beijang, forcibly accusing Mo Yunjing of treason.
Apart from writing to An Xue Tang, he also wrote one to Yun Yi, urging him to prepare in advance and not let Bei Jiang fight unprepared.
After finishing, Yun Liu solemnly handed the eleven letters. “Shi Yi, you must deliver these two letters to the Princess and your elder brother.”
"Well," Eleven frowned, "Okay."
Eleven didn't dare delay. After receiving the letter, he quickly bid farewell to them.
Throughout Yunli's time writing to Yunliu, Yunsi stood beside him, seeing everything he wrote. After Shi Yi left, Yunsi looked at Yunliu disapprovingly:
Why tell the princess all these details In my opinion, informing her about the prince's situation now will only cause her unnecessary worry. If the prince finds out you did this, he might be angry with you for acting without his consent!
Yunliu shook her head. "I'm not afraid of being punished by the prince. I think, letting the princess know the prince's true situation, she will surely come up with a very good way to save the prince."
Yun Si didn't understand why he trusted An Xue Tang so much, but Yun Liu didn't explain at the moment. The two of them quickly left their secret hideout and entered the palace through a special passage they had discovered.
He quickly found the Cold Palace where Mo Yunjing was imprisoned, but the Emperor was inside at the moment.
So there were a lot of Imperial guards outside the Cold Palace, not even a fly could get in, let alone two living people.
At this moment, the emperor sat on his throne with a gloomy expression, while Mo Yunjing stood before him. No one was restraining Mo Yunjing, and he didn't appear as helpless as before.
The emperor must know that Mo Yunchen is still in his hands, so Mo Yunjing cannot act rashly.
His dark eyes fixed on Mo Yunjing, he thought Mo Yunjing would beg for mercy first, but to his surprise, Mo Yunjing didn't say a word, even calmer than him.
The emperor was most angered by Mo Yunjing's fearless and indifferent demeanor.
At this moment, he clenched his fists, his eyes as cold and sharp as ice, staring at Mo Yunjing, “Do you have anything to say to me”
Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes slightly, fell silent for a moment, and then asked softly, "I'm back and I've fallen into your trap. When are you going to release my brother"
