When Wen Shaojun and the others learned about the collusion between Qing Feiyang and Tian Fei Nuo, they executed Luo Qingyun's meticulous plan. As the Great Wisdom army approached Dayue by water, they were struck hard at sea by Wen Shaojun's forces.
Under the cover of night, Luo Qingyun sent several skilled fighters to tie together all forty ships, then set them ablaze.
According to villagers living nearby, the flames that night lit up the sky, turning it almost completely red.
Hundreds of thousands of troops were thus brought to ruin.
Some who managed to survive found themselves ambushed onshore by Luo Qingyun's men and were swiftly annihilated.
They only lost 2,000 men while defeating Great Wisdom's army of one hundred thousand.
"What should we do now?" Wen Shaojun increasingly admired Luo Qingyun.
"Return to Great Wisdom and become emperor!" Luo Qingyun said lightly, raising an eyebrow.
"But I want to save Lele first!" Wen Shaojun hesitated; his betrayal was all for her. Now he was being asked to choose power over her!
He couldn't do it.
"Didn't we analyze this before? Lele will be fine. Besides, Qing Feiyang still doesn't know what has happened here. If we return now, we can catch him off guard! Even if his army is larger than ours, the troops from other areas won't be able to arrive in time! Moreover, with your standing among the Wise Man people, no one will oppose you as emperor!" Luo Qingyun patiently explained, each word resonating with reason.
"Alright! What about you? Will you come back with us?" Wen Shaojun gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Upon hearing this, Hua Nongying looked at Luo Qingyun expectantly.
Luo Qingyun's gaze met hers in the air, but in the end, he turned his head away. "I won't go. I want to stay here and wait for Senior Brother! Once you resolve the issues with Great Wisdom, I will join you in searching for Lele!"
Hua Nongying lowered her head in disappointment.
When did the two of them start to drift further apart?
Perhaps it was from the day of the marriage.
She let out a bitter laugh, tears streaming down her face. She quickly lowered her head to wipe them away, then stood up and walked towards her room in the backyard.
Wen Shaojun looked at the two of them, shook his head, gently patted Luo Qingyun's shoulder, and then left as well.
Luo Qingyun did not appear again after they left.
Before he planned to go to the Imperial Palace to find Tian Feiyao, he decided to go to another place first.
At this moment, the sun was setting.
Tian Fei Nuo finally sensed something was off. He suddenly stood up and glanced oddly at the silent Jie Yu, coldly asking, "Are you hiding something from me?"
Why had he waited so long without seeing Tian Feiyao? And where was Qing Feiyang's army, which he had arranged to meet?
What was going on during this time?
He began to feel confused.
"No, from the moment I handed my mother back to you, we were already in the same boat!" Jie Yu replied unhappily. In order to reassure both of them, she had returned Gu Yuniang, their hard-won mother, back into Tian Fei Nuo's hands.
That way, she had no way out anymore.
Tian Fei Nuo nodded. He opened his mouth as if wanting to say something more.
Just then, a commotion came from outside the house.
Immediately, the sound of arrows piercing through skin filled the air. Tian Fei Nuo felt a chill in his heart and hurried outside, only to be shocked by the scene before him.
Countless archers had emerged from the roof, shooting arrows at his subordinates.
The cries of agony were incessant. When Tian Fei Nuo and Jie Yu saw a woman with a smiling face on the roof, gazing at them with intense eyes, he felt his legs weaken and nearly fell to the ground.
The woman was Kisaragi.
Seeing that the situation had already reached a conclusion and that his reinforcements had not yet arrived, Tian Fei Nuo finally resigned himself and closed his eyes.
The rebellion was thus quelled, disappearing without a trace overnight.
Tian Fei Nuo was imprisoned, while Jie Yu, lacking solid evidence against her, was merely kept under watch at Zhaoyang Palace, unable to step outside.
Jie Yu could not understand why everything they had planned had turned out this way in the end.
The strangest part was that Tian Feiyao had vanished.
Where could he have gone?
As she contemplated the situation, a sudden thought crossed her mind. Since Tian Fei Nuo's plan had failed, keeping him alive would only bring harm to herself.
It would be better to kill him and end it all.
If Tian Feiyao was unwilling to leave the Imperial Palace with her, then she could remain in the Harem without issue.
After all, she alone enjoyed the Emperor's favor.
With this thought in mind, Jie Yu secretly made up her mind.
The Imperial Palace was eerily quiet at midnight, almost like hell itself, especially after the tumultuous events of the day. Everyone had thought that the situation was settled, but suddenly, the Emperor's personal maid appeared, not only quelling the rebellion but also issuing a decree in the Emperor's name.
Everything felt too strange.
Everyone began to feel anxious, especially those who had previously joined San Wangye's faction. They now realized that the Emperor was aware of everything happening behind the scenes.
Yet there was one person who slept soundly.
Phoenix Palace.
"Your Highness, you really guessed it right this time!" Lucky exclaimed as she helped Ling Wanyue remove her makeup. Initially, she had agreed with Jing'an Marquis's suggestion to take advantage of the situation and cause chaos.
Looking back now, it seemed that the Empress truly had foresight.
"I didn't just guess; I have years of understanding about Tian Feiyao," Ling Wanyue replied proudly. "Don't forget, I watched him grow up. I know exactly what kind of person he is!"
"So, Your Highness, what should we do next?"
"Respond to changes with consistency. Don't you realize that today's rebellion was instigated by just one maid beside Tian Feiyao?"
"Then why didn't the Emperor intervene personally?"
