Chapter 9 Breaking into the Palace
"Bang bang bang!"
"Who is it? So early in the morning...ah..."
"Imperial Guards? This is Prince Weiyang's Palace, what are you going to do?"
"We are the ones who are breaking into your Prince Weiyang's mansion. Drive everyone to the front yard."
"Yes."
Around noon, the gate of Wei Yang Prince's mansion was slammed loudly. Accompanied by impatient questioning, the doorman slowly opened the door. Before he could figure out the situation outside, he was kicked out. The deputy commander of the Imperial Guards who was in charge of confiscating the property raised his hand and hundreds of soldiers behind him rushed in brutally. They took advantage of any road they saw and arrested anyone they saw, instantly causing chaos in the palace.
"How dare you! This is the Prince of Weiyang's Palace. I am a first-rank imperial official..."
"Catch him!"
"You dare?! No..."
Those soldiers rushed from the front yard to the back yard like bandits. At first, everyone was confused and very arrogant, especially the old lady of the palace. After all, she was a noble lady, so how could she allow others to offend her at will? Unfortunately, the other party did not give her the opportunity to put on airs. The maidservant who was protecting her was rudely pushed away, and she was so scared that she screamed without caring about her image.
In addition to the eldest branch of the royal palace represented by Wei Chengyi's family, there are also the second and third branches, which are also legitimate. Therefore, this scene not only happened in the old lady's house, but also in various courtyards. The soldiers were like ferocious monsters, rushing around recklessly and unreasonably.
"Wow... Grandma, I'm scared..."
"Imperial Guards? Why did you break into the palace?"
In the side hall of Songbai Courtyard, the two-year-old cub Wei Yun'an was crying loudly with fear. Zhao Yuping and Wei Ling'er, mother and daughter, were also pale. Wei Chenghe quickly protected them behind him. His young tiger eyes widened slightly, with a faint flame of anger jumping in his eyes.
"take away!"
The leading soldier had no intention of paying any attention to him. According to their past experience, no matter how powerful these people were, once their property was ransacked, there would be almost no chance of turning things around. Naturally, they were not afraid of offending anyone.
"Yes."
The soldiers with him were about to step forward. Wei Chenghe was still young after all, and his handsome face, which looked a little immature, was tinged with panic. The mother and daughter Zhao Yuping, who were protected behind him, unconsciously grabbed his clothes tightly, and the little cub hugged his grandmother's neck tightly.
"and many more."
"take away."
Without giving them a chance to speak again, the leading soldier roared again. The soldiers did not dare to hesitate any longer and immediately stepped forward.
"You dare? I..."
Seeing this, Wei Chenghe became even more flustered. He knew a little bit of martial arts and was about to fight with the soldiers.
"Anyone who dares to resist will be beaten to death or injured."
"Yes."
The leading soldier pouted in mockery, and the soldiers drew their swords. Just as they were about to fight, Shen Xiangwan suddenly walked in from outside: "Don't care if you kill or injure. My Weiyang Palace has been loyal for generations, and the eldest son's direct lineage, three generations of old, middle-aged and young people have died on the battlefield. Now you have barged in so barbarously, and you are shouting for war in the palace. Aren't you afraid that it will spread and make the military commanders all over the world feel chilled?"
When she came back in the morning, she only collected the warehouse of the palace. After reaching a cooperation with Wei Chengyi, she estimated that the time was about right, so she went to the kitchen and various courtyards to plunder randomly. She didn't expect to encounter such a tense scene when she came back. "Who are you?"
Turning around and looking at her, the leading soldier frowned. They were indeed not afraid of the people in the palace who were having their property confiscated, but they were still afraid of the other generals. If any bad rumors really spread and caused them to have some dirty thoughts towards the emperor, they would be in big trouble.
"Princess Weiyang, Shen Xiangwan."
After glancing at him calmly, Shen Xiangwan walked towards Zhao Yuping and the others and said, "Mom, are you all right?"
"No, Wanwan, what's going on?"
Looking at the soldiers with a pale face and uneasiness, Zhao Yuping asked with a trembling voice, "Weren't you fine this morning? Why did you suddenly become like this?"
"It should be a house search."
Given their status and position, it is impossible for them not to know what this situation means, but they just don't want to believe it.
"what why?"
Tears rolled down her eyes, Zhao Yuping was full of doubts and puzzlement. The Prince of Weiyang was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. After the second son was poisoned and retreated from the battlefield, he immediately handed over the military power. Why was the Prince's Mansion suddenly confiscated? What did they do wrong?
"Have you said enough? Take away!"
Seeing that their attack was about to end, the leading soldier roared impatiently.
"We can go on our own."
Soldiers holding weapons rushed forward. Shen Xiangwan glanced at them calmly, protecting Zhao Yuping and the others and said, "Mom, let's go out."
"Ah."
No matter how unwilling they were to believe it, Zhao Yuping and her son had no choice but to leave with them.
"Cheng Yi!"
Just as they stepped out of the side hall, Qingying appeared, pushing Wei Chengyi, who was unconscious and paralyzed in a wheelchair. Beside them, there was also a group of soldiers. Zhao Yuping and others didn't care about being sad when they saw this, and rushed forward in two steps at a time.
"Madam, the prince is fine."
It was obviously impossible for Wei Chengyi to respond, and Qingying couldn't explain it either, so she could only comfort him implicitly.
"Cheng Yi... um..."
Looking at her unconscious son in the wheelchair, Zhao Yuping felt so distressed that tears fell down her face. Wei Chengyi and Wei Ling'er, brother and sister, could not help but shed tears in their eyes.
Shen Xiangwan didn't know how to comfort them, so he could only take them out with the soldiers and try his best to avoid any physical conflict between them. At this time, only by going along with those people would they avoid suffering.
