Chapter 362 The Battle for the Throne

Baili Changfeng nodded, with a serious expression on his face: "The old man rushed from Yaowang Valley to the capital after receiving the letter. I was afraid that something bad would happen to Yuanqiu, but I didn't expect it to be too late."

Song Ning asked: "Could it be that something happened in the capital?"

Baili Changfeng let out a long sigh, and said: "The king of Liang forced the palace, joined forces with the queen, entered the Changde gate, and killed three thousand imperial guards who had no power to fight back after being poisoned, blood flowed into the palace, the emperor was placed under house arrest, and the government fell Hand of King Liang."

Song Ning was shocked, his face became paler and paler, his thin but steady hands trembled slightly in his sleeves: "Your Majesty, he, is his life in danger?"

Baili Changfeng shook his head: "The specific situation is not clear yet. I think it will be fine for the time being. Even though King Liang is forcing the palace to seize the throne, the emperor, after all, is his biological father, so it would not be so treacherous."

Song Ning shook his head, feeling anxious. Once a person goes crazy, what other unconscionable things can't be done?

Yuan Hao was puzzled: "When they seize the throne, they seize the throne. Why did they arrest my sister? Why is my sister hindering them?"

Baili Changfeng sighed: "Your sister is Prince Jing's beloved. If King Liang wants to succeed, the only obstacle for him is Prince Jing. If you capture your sister, he will have the bargaining chip to deal with King Jing and force Jing to do so. Wang Suifan."

Yuan Hao stamped his feet, and said angrily: "This King Liang is really hateful, my sister shouldn't have saved his life, but now he has captured my sister, and wants to use my sister's life to threaten his younger brother. , how can there be such a vicious villain!"

Song Ning wondered: "Yuanhao, what did you just say? Your sister once saved the life of King Liang?"

Yuan Hao nodded: "That's right, at the beginning of the year, my sister and I first entered the capital and opened a medical clinic in Ninghe Lane. My sister cured several intractable diseases and her reputation as a layman attracted people from Prince Liang's Mansion. At that time, King Liang was injured when he fell off his horse, and his life was in danger. They forced my sister into Prince Liang’s mansion, and my sister cured King Liang, but King Liang refused to let my sister go. He was born an ungrateful person.”

Song Ning frowned, feeling bad, and hurriedly asked: "Then how did King Liang let your sister go?"

Yuan Hao shook his head: "It's not that he let my sister go, it's that Prince Jing resorted to tricks. The empress dowager in the palace announced my sister to enter the palace, so King Liang had no choice but to let my sister go out of the palace, and Prince Jing directly let her go. The palace took my sister away, so I escaped safely."

In this way, Yuan Qiu and King Liang are not completely unrelated.

As a man, Song Ning is well aware of how fatally attractive a girl like Yuan Qiu is to a man. If Liang Wang has a different heart for Yuan Qiusheng, then the person who hijacks Yuan Qiu will definitely send her directly to the palace , placed under the eyelids of King Liang.

"Young Master Song, what did you think of?" Baili Changfeng asked Song Ning's brows tightly.

Song Ning came back to his senses, and said in a deep voice: "I was thinking, since Liang Wang and Yuan Qiu are old acquaintances, there should be no danger of life for the time being, maybe now, Yuan Qiu is already in the palace."
