When the birthday feast began, Ge Ya was the first to present her gift, and the four servants carried him up to a large wardrobe. Seeing this, the surrounding people were stunned. They were all confused. Even the old king, who was sitting on the throne, was confused.
The girl walked out and changed her clothes from head to toe. The people around her exclaimed in admiration, this was too amazing, the moment they entered the cabinet, they didn't even have enough time to take off their clothes, how could they change their clothes. Then, the girl went back into the cabinet, and after a second, she came out and changed her clothes again. At this point, many of the guests couldn't sit still any longer. They all stood up, wanting to clearly see what had happened.
The young girl had neat makeup and was wearing a smile without any flaws, which made people clap and cheer for her.
After finishing the dance, Ge Ya went up to the girl and pulled her over to thank her. Even the old king couldn't help but ask what was going on.
Ge Ya smiled mysteriously and opened the door with the girl.
It turned out that there was another girl in the cabinet who looked exactly the same as the girl from before. She was dressed differently. It was precisely the two sisters, Moon and Nanny.
The two twins had exquisite appearances and had the same makeup. It was impossible to tell the difference at all, which made everyone click their tongues in surprise.
The king was overjoyed, he never thought that there would be such an outstanding pair of sisters within the Fanbo City.
When he sat down, he saw that the Prince of Mongolia was indeed a lot taller than the people around him. He didn't expect that when he stood up, he was twice as tall as the people around him, and his muscular body was as intimidating as an iron bucket giant. However, his small and terrifying head was still looking around for his translator. He looked kind of cute.
Zhuang Li was ecstatic in her heart, her mind was simple and her limbs were well-developed, this description was simply tailor-made for him.
He bowed to the king. His think tank, Fat Sa Gan started to introduce that this was the prince performing his unique skills for the King of West Cold.
The big fool listened to Fat Sassafras and picked up a common knife. He held both ends of the knife with both hands and exerted force with one hand. The blade split in two.
The guests cheered, and then he turned to look at the stone block at the foot of the steps. He ordered someone to carry the stone block into the hall.
The stone block wasn't big, but it was solid. The four soldiers then managed to lift it and move it to the main hall. After the soldier retreated, the big man squatted down and took two deep breaths, then he wrapped an arm around the stone block and stood up to lift it up. The surrounding people were all amazed. He held the stone block and walked around it, as if he was sure that someone had witnessed his innate divine strength before he put it down. When the block fell on the ground, it produced a dull sound, as if a crack had instantly appeared on the floor. The crowd was even more enthusiastic and began to praise him.
At this time, a report suddenly came in, the Eldest Prince had returned to the city and was about to arrive at the palace.
It had been a long time since he had seen his son. Although he had some doubts regarding why the king would appear in the Great Wei Country, he was still very happy in his heart. They had been waiting for him to come and meet them, and even when the palace feast was about to end, the Eldest Prince still did not appear.
Ge Ya drank a little too much during the feast, while looking at her lover who was standing outside the hall, she revealed an infatuated smile. The birthday feast was also coming to an end, and after that, there were some fireworks going on, so she called Qing You over. She wanted to send Ge Ya back to King Xiao's Palace first, so as to avoid any problems happening to her.
The king and his guests also gradually moved out of the hall, waiting for the fireworks to begin.
She and Qing You supported Ge Ya up in the middle, passing through the guests, and while no one was paying attention, they secretly prepared their horses and slipped back into the King Xiao's Palace. Just as she reached the door, he saw a green flame rise into the air. Zhuang Li was curious. Could it be that the fireworks party had already begun?
Suddenly, he saw the sky filled with rockets flying towards the palace. Many of them landed on the servants' bodies and ignited into a ball of fire. Those who were struck by the rockets struggled a few times before turning into a ball of fire and rolling on the ground.
Zhuang Li pulled Qing You and Ge Ya back together, and hid behind a stone pillar. In the blink of an eye, the entire outside of the hall had turned into a mess.
What happened?
Following that, a wave of mocking voices could be heard as dozens of assassins with sabers charged out from the shadows towards the main hall. The first one to react was Xi Cuo, he rushed out of the main hall and went to the banquet in his official uniform, without even carrying his blade, he actually took the blade from the assassin's hand and hacked the assassin to death.
"Protect the king!"
Xi Cuo bellowed, the palace guards that he controlled all rushed out, the king was escorted back into the palace, he staggered, and was in complete chaos.
Those palace guards weren't useless. Within an hour, all of the assassins that had rushed out had been subdued. Once they saw that there was no hope for them, they would all stop on their own, not leaving a single one alive.
Just as everyone was still in a daze, someone had rushed out of the hall covered in blood. The one who came down from the horse was Third Prince. With a grave expression and fear, he pushed aside the servant who had come to support him and rushed up the hall. Everyone was shocked.
"father, father. "Big brother, we forced you to palace."
No one believed what he said, and the old king collapsed into a chair. Ge Ya was so scared that she instantly woke up from her stupor.
The relationship between the Third Prince and the Eldest Prince had always been good. The credibility of what he said was indeed very high.
"What the hell is going on!?" the king asked, catching his breath.
The Third Prince was covered in blood, no one knew where the wound was, but Zhuang Li sent Qing You to look for a doctor, and saw that he was unable to hold on for a few more breaths.
He was quickly placed on a chair, and when the doctor arrived, he quickly cut his clothes to reveal the scars all over his body.
Third Prince stuttered as he spoke, "father, Big Brother wants to seize the throne. I was discovered by Yun Feng cavalry who left Mongolia half a month ago to go to the Great Wing and West Cold realms but he locked me up. It was only on account of the fact that brotherly friendship didn't kill me that I managed to escape from him after a few tries. Right now, he was at the entrance of the city, leading his ten thousand Cloud Peak Cavalry, wanting to force the father to give up his position. The assassin just now was his first chess piece. "
The old king trembled in anger. Xi Cuo hurriedly knelt down and said that he would bring the two thousand guards of the palace to protect everyone inside the city.
Zhuang Li sighed to herself, how could two thousand soldiers who were used to staying in the city be a match for the Eldest Prince's Yun Feng Cavalry that lived in poverty on the borders for ten thousand years?
Right at this time, the Third Prince spoke again.
"Don't worry father, there are a lot of people who aren't willing to follow Big Brother in his rebellion. They are deputy generals who have followed me in the past, and if I find a suitable opportunity to notify them, they will definitely cooperate with Second Brother and help Big Brother Yun Feng."
Seeing Xi Cuo help the bandaged Third Prince out, Zhuang Li faintly felt that this matter wasn't that simple. She pulled Xi Cuo to one side, wanting him to be on guard, not knowing if he understood what she meant.
Everyone was waiting in the main hall. All night long, the outside of the city was lit up by flames. The border of the city was a mess, and it was only at dawn that the ruckus gradually quietened down.
Xi Cuo knelt in the hall and reported, "Third brother's faction, Big Brother Yun Feng, mounted on Cloud Peak, and the soldiers in the city, worked together to annihilate the rebel army. Eldest Prince died in the midst of arrows."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief, and some even cheered. Ge Ya calmed down a little, but felt sad. After all, she was her big brother. Even though she hated him, she never would have thought that he would do such a thing.
The king looked as if he had aged ten years in one night. One could not see any joy on his face, but his expression was solemn as he announced the great rewards to the defending army and Third Prince.
Zhuang Li and Ge Ya proceeded toward the King Xiao's Palace. Xi Cuo was going to escort them back, but when Zhuang Li saw that his entire body was covered in blood and mud, her mental state was still in a crumbling state on the battlefield, so she wanted him to return and rest. In the end, she still let him take care of her.
Zhuang Li thought carefully, the Eldest Prince coming to force someone into his palace was really strange, the throne was his, he did not need to rush to force the King to abdicate, he went to the Da Wan Kingdom to transfer troops, and coincidentally met with an envoy from the Da Wan Empire, how could he be in the mood to help an envoy escape danger?
Even if he was kind-hearted and wanted to save others, he could call himself someone else. Did he have to say that he was Eldest Prince's Yun Feng Cavalry?
Finally, there was one last thing that everyone in the Eldest Prince knew, Eldest Prince was a prodigy who led troops in battles. Even the King was proud of him more than once, how could he not know that his rebel army had many hidden dangers?
Since he had already captured the Third Prince, with his style of doing things, how could he give the Third Prince a chance to escape? This was a taboo meeting for soldiers. In Zhuang Li's opinion, it was more likely that he would directly kill the Third Prince.
In the end, he actually died outside the city. It could be said that he died with no proof.
Xi Cuo took care of the Acropolis City and the entire imperial palace took care of their own safety.
What is it...
