The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion
Chapter 529: The Queen has Orders
Chapter 529
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran could not leave the city at the moment. Even if they ventured outside, they would have to wait until nightfall.
Although Nan Yu was intelligent, this was the first time he had to plan such a large operation, so he needed someone to discuss with to ensure success.
In his view, the best person to consult was Minister Hao. Minister Hao was an upright man, solely devoted to serving the Emperor. Moreover, he already knew Nan Yu's true identity.
Regardless of who would eventually become the crown prince, everything they were doing now was to rescue Emperor Shunwu from peril.
Therefore, Nan Yu's upcoming plans would not contradict Minister Hao's intentions in any way.
After receiving the letters from his daughter and wife, Minister Hao, who had already lost faith in the court, was no longer opposed to retiring to his hometown.
However, before resigning his official post and the court salary that came with it, he would still do his utmost to serve the Emperor, as he had sworn.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran did not want to get involved in this matter. Minister Hao and Nan Yu spent the entire morning in the study.
It was not until noon that the study door opened. The two men must have come up with a reasonable plan and were about to take separate actions to carry it out.
At present, the entire Capital city was under the control of the Empress's faction, and they were in opposition to her.
However, this did not pose any difficulties for Nan Yu. If he could not even figure out a way to conceal his identity, how could he claim to be a wise ruler?
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran still chose to rest during the day and act according to the plan at night.
This time, the two changed into night attire, as it would be less noticeable to the city guards when leaving the city walls while wearing such clothing.
They avoided all the patrolling guards' lines of sight and reached a spot not far from the city gate.
He Zhiran took a drone out from her spatial storage and used the recording system to record a message.
"The Empress has ordered all soldiers to support the Imperial Palace."
Although this ploy was rather childish and the soldiers might not believe it, He Zhiran's main purpose in using the drone was to attract their attention.
Mo Jiuye was highly skilled in lightness kung fu. As long as the soldiers' attention was momentarily diverted to the drone, they would have a chance to safely leap over the city walls.
Ready, He Zhiran controlled the drone to slowly ascend.
Her drone was quite advanced and had undergone advanced noise cancellation processing.
As long as He Zhiran controlled it properly, the drone would make almost no sound, and its lights could be completely turned off.
Furthermore, their position was some distance away from the city guards, so there was no need to worry about the guards discovering the drone's initial location.
The drone moved swiftly and in the blink of an eye, it reached the height of the city tower.
Today, Xue Bo was still leading the guards here. When the drone reached about a hundred meters above his head, it began hovering in place, while the message that He Zhiran had just recorded began playing in a loop.
When He Zhiran recorded it, she had used voice-changing software to alter her voice, so the voice playing sounded like a rather deep male voice.
As expected, everyone, including Xue Bo, looked towards the source of the voice.
Soon, someone inquired of Xue Bo, "Commander, is the Empress in trouble and in need of our support?"
Xue Bo was also quite puzzled. If the Empress needed his help, she could have sent someone familiar to notify them.
What was this situation?
Where was the person sent by the Empress?
On such a dark and windy night, even with countless torches lit, they could not find the person calling out...
One had to admit, He Zhiran's little trick was really effective, drawing everyone's attention to the drone.
Mo Jiuye seized the opportunity, embraced He Zhiran's waist, and leapt into the air, successfully jumping over the city walls.
Once in a safe location, He Zhiran no longer cared whether the city guards would go to support the Imperial Palace. She operated the remote control to bring the drone back to her and stored it in her spatial storage.
The two ran swiftly and before dawn, they found the mountain hollow that Emperor Shunwu had mentioned.
With the token in hand, the two boldly approached the camp.
Seeing their figures, someone immediately raised their weapons and questioned them.
Mo Jiuye simply raised the token high.
"The token is here. All soldiers, follow orders."
This army, which could become the royal family's last trump card, was not as simple as one might imagine.
After the soldiers saw the token, without Mo Jiuye's instruction, the main force quickly assembled, presenting a ready-to-depart formation.
Mo Jiuye raised the token high.
"The main force will depart and await orders three miles from the Capital city."
With a single command, the troops marched in an orderly fashion towards the designated location.
Even Mo Jiuye, who had commanded thousands of soldiers, found this formation impressive.
He did not understand why the royal family had such an army, but he had no desire to investigate at the moment.
With the troops in ambush, Mo Jiuye fired a signal flare, informing Nan Yu that his mission was complete.
All that remained was to await Nan Yu's message.
After more than an hour of the main force lying in ambush, the long-awaited signal finally resonated in the sky.
Mo Jiuye, a veteran of many battles, naturally felt a surge of excitement upon hearing this sound.
He raised the token in his hand: "Brothers, attack the city."
The soldiers swarmed forth in an orderly fashion towards the Capital city's gate.
At this point, it was inconvenient for Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran to appear. Their task of assisting Nan Yu had been successfully completed.
The couple hid in the shadows and observed the battle.
One had to admit, Emperor Shunwu's trump card was indeed no bluff. These troops were far more valiant than the city guards and could not be compared.
In less than half an hour, the main force breached the gate and entered the city.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran also took advantage of the chaos to enter the city.
They needed to find Nan Yu immediately and return the token to him.
The next actions of these soldiers still required his command.
Mo Jiuye pondered. If his guess was correct, Nan Yu should be leading people near the Imperial Palace at this time, demanding an audience with the Emperor or demanding that the Empress reveal the true situation of the Emperor to everyone.
Indeed, this was the case. At the main gate of the Imperial Palace, Nan Yu, Nan Rui, and Nan Qi stood side by side, confronting the door guards.
Since the main force had entered the Capital city, they had charged straight towards the Imperial Palace.
Although the main force advanced swiftly, they could not match Mo Jiuye's lightness kung fu.
The citizens of the Capital city had already taken refuge in their homes upon hearing the sounds of battle.
The officials and soldiers originally patrolling the streets had all rushed to provide support after hearing the fighting.
This was convenient for Mo Jiuye. He used his lightness kung fu to bring He Zhiran to the vicinity of the Imperial Palace at maximum speed.
Upon arrival, he saw the main gate of the Imperial Palace open, and Xue Prime Minister leading a contingent out from within.
