Chapter 469 Entering the Palace to Rescue the Emperor
Xilin knew the fear and helplessness of these ministers, so she decided to return the letters to them and free them from Batur's shackles. In this way, when she finally made Batur's evidence public, the ministers would no longer have any worries and could confront Batur without any scruples.
This move not only demonstrated Xilin's wisdom and courage, but also paved the way for her son to ascend the throne in the future in the court.
At this time, Patihan was brought to the Xuanwang Mansion by the guards through the secret passage of the East Palace. There were still traces of tears on her face, and the tears kept falling, as if they could never be wiped away. Her eyes were confused and helpless, like a deer lost in the forest, not knowing where to go to find her brother and General An to come to the palace to save him.
Just when she felt desperate, Hawul, Muzepal and Adi happened to return to the palace. When Parti Khan saw them, she rushed over without hesitation as if she had found a life-saving straw. She hugged Hawul tightly and burst into tears, her voice full of fear and sorrow, and shouted: "Big brother, second brother, you are back, go back to the palace and save father!"
Hawuer was startled by his sister's sudden pounce. He quickly reached out to support Partihan and asked with concern: "Little sister, what's wrong with you? What happened to father? Isn't he in the palace?"
Partihan sobbed, trying to calm herself down, then choked up and said, "Suddenly a lot of assassins came to the palace. My father asked me to find you. He said that General An should rush to the palace to rescue me. He also said that my grandfather might have been attacked by assassins..." As she spoke, she tremblingly took out the prince's token from her arms and handed it to Hawul.
"The palace gate has been locked. Only those with my father's token can pass through!" Hawule looked at the token that his father always carried with him, representing his status as the crown prince, and his heart sank. He immediately realized that something major must have happened in the palace.
He quickly turned his gaze to the guards behind Partihan and ordered them seriously: "Protect the princess and don't leave the palace. Make sure she is safe until I send someone to pick her up!"
The guards responded, "Yes!" Their voices were firm and loud, showing their absolute obedience to Hawule's orders.
Ha Wuer breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his gaze to his sister and said earnestly: "Little sister, you must stay in the palace and don't run around. I will go to find General An and go into the palace to rescue my father. Don't worry, I will definitely return safely."
There was a trace of worry in the sister's eyes, but she nodded obediently and said, "Brother, you must be careful."
Hawul smiled and touched his sister's head, then turned around and quickly walked out of the palace with Muzepal and Adi.
However, just when they walked out of the palace, Hawuer suddenly saw a group of people galloping in front of him. He looked closely and found that it was General Ankar leading a large number of soldiers!
Hawuer was delighted and rushed forward, shouting loudly: "General An!"
Ankar saw Hawuer and the two people beside him from a distance. He quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Greetings, Your Highness. May I ask, is everything going well in the palace?"
Hawuer was a little surprised. He looked at Ankar and asked in confusion: "Royal Palace? What does the general mean?"
Ankar explained: "This general suddenly received a secret report tonight, saying that the Xuanwang Mansion will be attacked by a large number of assassins tonight. I am worried that the palace will be damaged, so I came here to check the situation. What? Didn't anything happen in the palace?"
Ha Wuer was shocked and said quickly, "It's not the palace, but the palace! Moreover, the East Palace and the King's bedroom were attacked by assassins at the same time!"
Ankar's eyes widened when he heard this, his face full of astonishment: "What? It was actually from the palace. Who is so bold as to assassinate the king and the prince?"
Seeing this, Muzepal on the side quickly interrupted and said, "General, brother, the situation is urgent. Let's go to the palace first and talk while walking. It may be too late if we are late!"
Ankar said with a worried look on his face: "But the palace gate is locked now, we can't get in at all!"
Adi interrupted and said, "We can get in. We have the prince's token. General, can you give us three horses? Then we can get to the palace as soon as possible."
Hearing the prince's token, Ankar no longer hesitated and waved behind him. In an instant, three soldiers gave up their horses, and everyone rode their horses straight to the palace!
At this moment, the atmosphere in the palace was extremely tense. Although the secret guards around the king were all skilled in martial arts, it was not difficult for them to fight against a hundred enemies alone. However, what was frustrating was that the number of enemies surrounding them was too large, and they kept coming like a tide.
To make matters worse, the king was injured in the previous fierce fight, which made the situation even more critical. The secret guards not only needed to protect the injured king, but also had to find ways to break through the heavy encirclement and fight their way out.
On the other side, Batur watched his soldiers fall one after another, with corpses piled up like a mountain, which was a horrible sight. But he remained indifferent and kept a cold and indifferent attitude. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to slowly exhaust the physical strength of these secret guards, and let his father personally feel the taste of despair. As for the life and death of those soldiers, he didn't care at all.
At the same time, the East Palace was also in chaos. Ziya led the guards to resist the enemy's attack with difficulty. They fought bloody battles and never retreated. Keremu also kept waving the sword in his hand. Each sword was accurate and fierce, killing the assassins one by one.
Holding the crown prince's token, Hawuer and his companions passed through the palace gates one by one as if they were in an empty space. However, just as they were about to reach the last palace gate, Hawuer suddenly shouted loudly: "Second brother, you and Adi quickly go to the East Palace to rescue father, and the general and I will go to rescue grandfather the king!"
Upon hearing this, Muzepal responded without hesitation: "Okay, brother, don't worry, I will do my best to save father, and you should also be more careful!"
Before he finished speaking, the palace gate slowly opened, and everyone immediately split into two groups like arrows shot from a bow, rushing towards their respective goals at lightning speed.
Ankar and Hawul led the others to run all the way and finally arrived in front of the king's palace. They saw that the door of the palace was closed, but in front of the door, a group of people were fighting desperately with the imperial guards. Looking closely, the person fighting with the imperial guards turned out to be the fifth prince, Aihetanmu!
Aihetanmu caught a glimpse of Ankar, Hawul and others, and hurriedly shouted: "General An, please save my father! These people are the subordinates of my third brother, and my father is under siege in the palace!"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Ankar did not hesitate at all, and instantly killed the imperial guards who were fighting fiercely with Ahetanmu. At this time, they stood outside the palace gate and clearly heard the fierce fighting sounds coming from the palace, as if the whole palace was shrouded in this murderous aura.
Hawuer stared at Aihetanmu, who had some scars on his body, and asked with concern: "Uncle Fifth Prince, how is your injury? Can you still hold on?"
