Before Ying the Third fell into a coma, he had entrusted the defense of the Imperial Palace to her.
And the investigation was put in the hands of Ying Hongye.
The intention was to have them work together in unity.
"Okay, General Zuo, your loyalty is admirable."
Ying Hongye wiped the fresh blood from the corner of her mouth, restoring her rightful imperial demeanor: "Grandpa Yao, since you're here, there's no need for you to leave immediately."
In front of Yao Rengang and Zuo Ruoshui, Ying Hongye sent a message to Ji Changsheng:
"Changsheng, Old Yao, one of the elder officials, has intruded the palace at night, threatening the lives of the Majesty and myself. They've been trying to coerce me into making you back down. I refused on the spot and incurred severe injuries. Luckily, I'm temporarily safe thanks to the protection of General Zuo from the Forbidden Army."
"Changsheng, please take care of things outside the palace."
