Chapter 359: Invasion of Fengyi Palace



Chapter 359: Invasion of Fengyi Palace

At this time, because of the chaos outside, the concubines in the harem were already in panic.

Concubine Qing took the lead and gathered everyone in Fengyi Palace.

After the queen was deposed and demoted to Concubine Si, Fengyi Palace became vacant.

The palace is spacious, and it is perfect for using it as a shelter for everyone at this time.

Everyone was waiting here in panic, hoping that the war would be over quickly, but what they got was one devastating piece of news after another.

The Tartar soldiers entered the palace, the emperor disappeared somewhere, the empress dowager took charge, the emperor died, the death knell sounded, and the Tartar soldiers were released into the harem...

The gates of Fengyi Palace were tightly closed, and the concubines hid in their rooms in fear.

But the high walls could not block the sound. The footsteps of large numbers of people and horses running outside and the chattering shouts of the Tartars were all terrifying.

Boom!

Boom!

Clang!

The people outside used siege weapons to directly knock open the gate of Fengyi Palace.

The next person to come in was the Queen Mother.

She was carried into the courtyard on a phoenix sedan chair by eight eunuchs. Behind her were a team of imperial guards and a group of Tartar soldiers, protecting her.

"Queen Mother, you actually surrendered to the enemy?!"

Concubine Yue endured the pain from her injuries and was helped out of the palace by a palace maid, glaring at the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother smiled.

She walked down from the phoenix chariot slowly.

"Don't say it so harshly. This is a cooperation between the two countries to stop the war. How can it be called surrendering to the enemy?"

Beside the phoenix chariot followed Nanny Shixiang.

On the other side were Zheng Zhuyi, Yu Sujin, and Zhishu.

They were originally left outside the city by the Queen Mother.

After the chaos, they were protected by soldiers and did not enter the city, so they were relatively safe. Until the Queen Mother and the Tartars reached a consensus not long ago, they had them brought into the palace.

Zheng Zhuyi's leg was hit by a car. Although her leg was not broken, her thigh was swollen. She was leaning on a crutch and barely standing, looking a little embarrassed.

But he held his head high and chest out, trying his best to maintain a proud attitude.

She stepped forward and spoke first for the Queen Mother.

"Noble Concubine Yue, you've met the Queen Mother, but you're not bowing. Why are you being so aggressive? If it weren't for the Queen Mother's mediation, who knows how long this war would have lasted. You were all saved by the Queen Mother, so why don't you thank her quickly?"

"Bah! Shameless thing!"

Concubine Yue spat on the ground, her face as cold as frost.

Pointing at Zheng Zhuyi, she cursed, "You are a citizen of Daliang. Why are you cooperating with the Tartars? They tore up the hundred-year alliance and suddenly attacked our Daliang capital. They are the enemy of Daliang. Even a woman cannot be in cahoots with the Tartars. Concubine Hui has rushed out to kill the enemy. Although those of us who stayed behind are not as good as her and do not know martial arts, we will not bow to the Tartars. Who do you think you are? How dare you be so proud in front of me!"

Although she was scolding Zheng Zhuyi, she was actually scolding someone indirectly, and everyone knew that she was scolding the Queen Mother.

Inside the palace, the concubines gathered together, most of them looked pale and panic-stricken.

Hearing Concubine Yue cursing at the door, several people hurriedly whispered to persuade her.

"My lady, please come back soon and don't annoy them."

"Your Majesty is gone, and we don't know whether we are alive or dead. Let's just live as long as we can."

"My lady..."

As soon as someone mentioned His Majesty, everyone in the room remembered the bell that had just rung. That bell announced the emperor's death, and also the end of their lives.

From then on, they were the women of the "late emperor".

Life and death are unknown, and the future is uncertain.

Someone couldn't help crying again. For a moment, the whole room was filled with sobs, unable to make a sound.

Concubine Yue turned around and shouted, "Why are you crying? Shut up! Don't embarrass yourself in front of the Tartars! Even if we die, we can't let people laugh at us for being spineless!"

Snap, snap.

The Queen Mother clapped her hands, one by one, with an expression of admiration on her face.

"As expected of the daughter of a Duke, you have a certain toughness about you. Even I couldn't help but want to praise you after hearing this."

Changing the subject, "However, how did Concubine Yue get the injuries? Have you forgotten? I heard that when you were tortured, you cried bitterly and screamed in pain. Where was your backbone at that time? Do you want me to torture you again so that you can relive how cowardly you were?"

Concubine Yue's face turned pale.

But she still gritted her teeth and said, "Old hag, if you want to torture me, then come on, I'm not afraid of you! If you dare to surrender to the Tartars, the heroic spirits of our ancestors in Daliang will come and take you away tonight!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother's face darkened.

"Noble Concubine Yue, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. It seems that I must teach you a lesson."

She turned her head and looked at the Tartar guards behind her.

Suddenly a cruel smile appeared.

Pointing to one of the tall and strong Tartars, he said, "Come here, I have a beauty for you."

Next to him was an interpreter who was temporarily summoned from the Honglu Temple.

He immediately translated the Queen Mother's words to the Tartar soldier.

"What beauty?" asked the soldier.

The Queen Mother raised her face.

Her guards then stepped forward and forcibly dragged Concubine Yue over without saying a word amid the cries of the palace maids.

Concubine Yue was dragged to the Empress Dowager.

"That's her. Do you like her?" The Queen Mother pointed at Concubine Yue and asked the Tartar soldier with a smile.

And he was told that he could go to the side hall next door to do his work.

"Old hag! How dare you!"

Concubine Yue spat at the Empress Dowager several times in a row.

The Queen Mother snorted coldly and ordered, "Bring her in."

The guards then threw Concubine Yue into the side hall.

After the Tartar soldier understood the translation, he was overjoyed, rubbed his hands and ran into the side hall.

He didn't even close the door and pounced on Concubine Yue.

"Get out of my way!"

Concubine Yue picked up a vase on the table and smashed it hard on the Tartar soldier's head.

The other party didn't even say a word and kicked her over.

"Queen Dowager, have you come here to offer all our concubines to the Tartars?"

The entrance to the main hall.

Concubine Qing staggered out and asked weakly.

His usual gentle expression changed.

At this moment, her eyes were sharp and aggressive.
