After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

Chapter 175 Breaking into the Prime Minister's Residence

Hu Lan was staring at Qiao's brother with her arms folded, kicking him from time to time. The sound was not loud, but each kick hit the real spot.

Qiao's brother's mouth was stuffed, so he could only wail in a muffled voice, and no sound could be heard for a long time.

Hu Lan always hated Qiao, and even her brother thought that he was not a good person. When Huang Jiuyuan released the person to her, she knew that this guy was definitely not a good person!

After staring at him and torturing him for half a day, he was so tired that he lay on the ground and started snoring.

Hu Lan realized something was wrong. Huang Jiuyuan should have summoned the hostages, but after so much time had passed, no one came to report!

She felt increasingly uneasy—

There were hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, the sound was loud, and from time to time there were also shouts...

Hu Lan pushed the door open and locked it tightly. When she got out of the courtyard, she found soldiers standing in the pavilion and on the corridor.

It seems that something bad is happening. The Prime Minister's Mansion has never seen any soldiers before!

She felt something was wrong and decided to go to the Prime Minister's courtyard to take a look. It took her half a day to get to the Prime Minister's courtyard.

The yard was also much quieter than usual. She leaned over the wall and saw that there were a few more people guarding the area around the woodshed.

Hu Lan realized something was wrong. She climbed over the eaves and flipped over to the yard of the woodshed. The window was nailed tightly, so she poked a hole along the seam.

His eyes flickered and he became anxious.

Huang Jiuyuan was tied up to a pillar with his hands tied behind his back, his face was battered. If it weren't for the clothes he was wearing, it would be hard to tell it was him.

She called softly, "Huang Jiuyuan..."

Huang Jiuyuan was beaten so hard that he was dizzy. He only regained his breath when he heard the voice. His head was swollen and painful. He looked towards the source of the voice and saw only a small hole. He recognized Hu Lan from the voice.

Huang Jiuyuan tried to break free from the rope again, but it was still useless, it was all in vain!

He gathered all his strength and said to Hu Lan, "Hurry... go find my sister. My father is rebelling! If you can't get into the palace, go to Helan Mansion and find Xue Nuo first..."

"But what can you do!"

"They have people watching me, I can't get out!"

The door to the woodshed was opened, and Huang Weiming strode in. Unlike his usual fawning demeanor, he was now a bit more arrogant. He looked around as he entered the woodshed, and then at the dying Huang Jiuyuan, he asked, "Who are you talking to?"

Huang Jiuyuan sneered without saying a word, his face was bruised and swollen, and his facial features could not be seen clearly.

Suddenly, Huang Weiming's eyes turned to the small hole in the window, and Hu Lan was frightened and ran back.

Huang Weiming pinched Huang Jiuyuan's jaw and squeezed hard, "Who are you talking to?"

Huang Jiuyuan still didn't say anything and was knocked unconscious by his punch again.

Hu Lan was so frightened that her legs were weak. As a woman of the world, she had never seen a rebellion before. Seeing Huang Jiuyuan injured so badly, she became even more at a loss.

Everywhere is strictly guarded, there is no way out!

She returned to the yard and consulted with the sisters in the yard. After they came up with an idea, they went to the wall of the backyard to play and fight. Then several of them pretended to quarrel and fight, and the whole place became a mess.

The soldiers were also attracted by the fight and surrounded them to maintain order and ask them to stop fighting. But the fight became more and more heated...

Hu Lan took the opportunity to climb over the wall and leave.

There were already few people on the streets of the capital, and every household had closed its doors. Only a few fearless people were shouting that the emperor was going to die!

Is she really going to die? For the first time, she felt the feeling of emptiness, an emptiness in her heart and mind.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw soldiers deployed outside, blocking the gate and the city walls tightly!

Hu Lan chose to turn back and run towards Helan Mansion. There were also many more palace soldiers guarding outside the Helan Mansion.

When she waited for the report, she realized how difficult the time was. It was as if she had felt constrained for the first time. In the past, she had wandered the world like a rootless person, and hiding in the prime minister's residence was just seeking temporary shelter. Who knew that two years would pass by like this...

Thinking of Huang Jiuyuan trapped in the woodshed, she felt very nervous.

When Helan Xuenuo came out, she knelt on the ground and said, "Please, Miss Helan, save Huang Jiuyuan."

"Don't worry, lead the troops to the Prime Minister's Mansion to rescue him now!"

In fact, Yuan Xu had been prepared for the Prime Minister's rebellion. Yaniang was planted by her in the Niu Market for many years. During these years, Yaniang helped him to investigate secretly and found a lot of evidence that the Prime Minister was secretly stockpiling weapons and private soldiers.

Who could have thought that he would take advantage of the most chaotic time in Donglai to usurp the throne!

Xiao Zhu helped Hu Lan to her feet. "Don't worry! My daughter already knows about the Prime Minister's rebellion, but he may not succeed!"

Yuan Xu had already made all the arrangements and the troops he had arranged were also to protect Helan Mansion, just in case!

Helan took Xiaozhu and Hulan and led the troops to the prime minister's residence!

For a moment, the two groups started fighting, and Helan, Xiaozhu and Hulan all joined in with weapons in hand.

Xiao Zhu became more and more excited as the fight went on. She had some basic skills, and her martial arts skills had been getting better and better over the days she practiced with Mu Kong. She was now able to handle the fight with ease.

The advantages and disadvantages of the two sides became obvious, and Helan Xuenuo had already tied up all the soldiers guarding outside the door.

The things inside also came out...

Helan Xuenuo drew his spear and smashed it against the door. "The Prime Minister has been defeated! Those who surrender will not die!"

The soldiers on the Prime Minister's side knelt on the ground together!

Hu Lan had already run in, and He Lan and Xiao Zhu followed behind her.

In the woodshed, Huang Jiuyuan was awakened by Huang Weiming who poured water on him. He asked him many times who he had been informing on, but Huang Jiuyuan just stared at him without saying a word, his lips almost bitten open!

Then Qiao had someone carry in a kang, and on the kang was a branding iron!

Qiao's brother also came in, smiling triumphantly.

Qiao lit a fire with an iron brand and put it into the water. Smoke came out of the water. She took the iron brand and put it into the fire again, then walked towards Huang Jiuyuan. "Are you using this to scare my brother? He is your uncle after all!"

"Bah!" Huang Jiuyuan glared at these people with hatred, wishing he could tear them apart.

He didn't expect that Qiao would find his brother so quickly.

Huang Weiming kicked Huang Jiuyuan again. "Mother, why are you wasting time talking to him? I was worried about what to do just now, but now I have a good excuse. He's so shameless that he actually tipped off someone. If we kill him for this crime, will Father blame us?"

"Of course not!" Qiao laughed heartily, baring her teeth in a terrifying way.

When Qiao's iron was about to burn...

There was a sound of fighting outside, and the branding iron was put down.

Huang Weiming and Qiao Shi started to panic. Qiao Shi opened the door and looked outside, saying, "Oh no! Someone's breaking in!"

"Could it be that my father failed?" Huang Weiming couldn't believe it. He always thought that the Prime Minister's plan was foolproof!

"You are all traitors and will suffer the consequences!" Huang Jiuyuan knew that reinforcements were coming!

"Then I'll drag you down to hell with me!" Huang Weiming grabbed the branding iron, furious, and thrust it towards Huang Jiuyuan's face...

At this moment, the door was kicked open, and Helan Xuenuo shot a sword at Huang Weiming. The sword hit his hand and the branding iron fell to the ground.

Qiao was kicked away by Hu Lan and fell onto the kang, screaming miserably and rolling on the ground.

His brother was held by Xiao Zhu and squatted on the ground.

Huang Weiming's eyes darkened and he picked up the branding iron on the ground with his other good hand and quickly burned Huang Jiuyuan with it. Helan Xuenuo rushed forward and kicked him, but it was too late. The corner of the branding iron burned a piece of skin on the side of Huang Jiuyuan's ear, leaving a wound half the size of a palm. The smell of burnt meat came, and Huang Jiuyuan fainted from the pain.

Helan Xuenuo felt a pain in his heart. He picked up the branding iron and stabbed it directly on Huang Weiming's back. Huang Weiming screamed in pain.

The house was filled with ghosts howling.

Hu Lan almost fainted from fright. She looked at the piece of Huang Jiuyuan's flesh that was burned and started crying. She untied him while crying.

It was because of this that Helan Xuenuo became even more angry. She had long considered Huang Jiuyuan a friend, and it was impossible for her to remain indifferent when seeing him go through all this!

She felt a little regretful for not informing Huang Jiuyuan about this earlier. She thought that even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs! Who could have known that Huang Jiuyuan would end up like this...

Helan Xuenuo didn't intend to let Huang Weiming go. She shouted at Xiaozhu, "Bring me a knife!"

Xiao Zhu kicked Qiao's brother and threw the knife over. Helan Xuenuo picked up the knife and without hesitation, at Qiao's request, stabbed it into Huang Weiming's back.

She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until blood was all over the ground. Huang Weiming was dead!

Then she walked towards Qiao with a big knife. Qiao was so scared that she fell to the ground. She slashed Qiao's face with the big knife, and Qiao covered her face and screamed in pain.

The big knife was pointed at Qiao's brother again. He trembled and peed all over the floor!

Xiao Zhu swallowed her saliva. It was the first time she saw Helan Xuenuo kill someone! The smell of urine wafted over her. She glanced at Qiao's brother and asked, "Miss, what should we do with him?"

"Leave them here, and leave Qiao and her brother to Huang Jiuyuan! Killing them outright would be too easy for them! Let Qiao feel the pain of losing a child! People like them deserve to be tortured! Slowly tortured!"

Huang Jiuyuan was sent back to the yard, and Helan Xuenuo arranged several doctors to treat him.

The man was seriously injured and fell into a coma. He's not seriously injured, but the wound on his face can't be healed!

Hu Lan cried for a long time.

Helan Xuenuo couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. He was just one step away. How much better would it be if he had just shot Huang Weiming to death?

She blamed herself many times over this matter.
