The Empress Dowager glanced outside and ordered the people in the courtyard, “Attack! Life or death!”

The people in the courtyard all charged toward Han Mingyi and the others. Leng Yi and the others formed a circle, surrounding Han Mingze and the others.

Quickly, more people poured into the courtyard from outside, engaging in combat with Han Minghong’s soldiers.

The imperial study was littered with corpses. Leng Er ordered some of the men to continue protecting the princes and princesses while he led the rest toward the Cold Palace, eliminating some rebels along the way.
