Chapter 1205
The old Duke and the emperor's fathers-in-law discussed for a while, but there was still no good solution.

"Don't say that I'm timid and afraid of getting into trouble. Let's all go to the palace to rescue him. This method probably won't work."

"Most of us are civil servants, and the guards around us are not very skilled in martial arts. If we forcefully break into the palace, even we may be deeply involved."

"Why don't we go to Nanyue Palace together and beg Nanyue King and Nanyue Princess."

Civil officials are much more rational and prudent than military officials, and most of them are opposed to entering the palace to rescue them.

But in the eyes of the old man, they are just timid and afraid of death.

"I've made it very clear to you just now! I've begged the Nanyue King and Nanyue Princess, and even knelt down in front of them, but they just refuse to enter the palace to save you!"

"Do you think that your face is bigger than mine?"

Everyone was silent for a while, and one of them tried to be fair: "Your official feels that the Nanyue King and Nanyue Princess will not really care about the affairs of the palace."

"If the third prince really succeeds in entering the palace, it won't do them any good."

"Besides, judging from the several incidents of annihilating the Chu family in Yuecheng, we know that they care about the safety of the Great Xia Dynasty and the people of Li."

The old man was very irritable: "They are concerned about the safety of the Great Xia Dynasty. There is no doubt about it. The problem is that they don't want to save him!"

"If the emperor is gone, they will choose another emperor. Anyway, they are under their control. For them, it doesn't matter who they choose. It doesn't matter if they save you or not!"

"The life of their relatives is far more important than the life of the emperor."

"But we are different from them! Without the emperor, we are all bad!"

Seeing that the old man was angry, no one else dared to speak.

Someone simply kicked the problem to the Duke's government.

"We listen to the arrangement of the Duke."

"But you must be fully prepared to enter the palace to save your driver."

"It's best to be able to mobilize soldiers from the barracks."

The old man was so angry that he said that they would go to the palace together to rescue him, but they were greedy for life and afraid of death and pushed back.

The soldiers of the barracks are in the outskirts of the capital, and if they are transferred now, they will arrive tomorrow morning. Besides, the military power is in the hands of the regent!
It seems that we still have to let go of our shame and go to the Nanyue Palace together.

Just as everyone was about to leave for Nanyue Palace, a spy came to report.

"Report! A large number of Imperial Forest Army and Imperial Guards are dispatched, and they should be performing urgent tasks!"

"what?"

Everyone was taken aback.

"So fast?"

However, the old man was having a little trouble in his heart.

Sure enough, it was the same as the king of Nanyue had guessed.

The third prince falsely preached an imperial decree, and went to the Nanyue Palace and the General's Palace to arrest people?

A large number of Imperial Forest Army and Imperial Guards were dispatched, and the Third Prince must send many of his confidantes to mix in to better destroy them or capture hostages.

In this way, isn't the defense in the palace weak?
Taking advantage of this opportunity, it will be much easier for them to enter the palace to rescue him.

As for the safety of the Nanyue Palace and the General's Palace, it was completely out of their consideration.

At this time, the spies came to report again.

"Report, the Imperial Forest Army and the Imperial Guard Army split into two groups, rushing to the Nanyue Palace and the General's Palace respectively!"

The old Duke hurriedly ordered the deployment of troops and generals, and stated his plan, thinking that now is an excellent time to enter the palace to rescue him.

"There are [-] guards in the Duke's Mansion. Your lords must also hurry up and gather your manpower, and everyone will work together to rescue the emperor!"

"Everyone, hurry up and go back to prepare. It's past midnight now. We must try our best to enter the palace before dawn!"
