Sheng Minglan took fish soup and some food to visit Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbo. Their father and brother's colleagues greatly praised Sheng Minglan's craftsmanship. Sheng Minglan also joked that Wang Ruofu and Hai Chaoyun missed them very much. Sheng Hong asked the eunuch to send Sheng Minglan out of the palace later, but the eunuch said that the palace gates were now closed, which was truly unprecedented, and everyone was very confused.
Consort Rong had summoned many family members of noble households into the palace, but Princess Pingning noticed that the families she usually got along with were not there. At this moment, the eunuch hurriedly reported to Consort Rong that someone had died outside. Consort Rong remained very calm and ordered the main gate to be closed, forbidding free movement. The princess noticed something unusual, so Consort Rong dealt with that eunuch.
At this moment, everyone also realized that Consort Rong was collaborating from within, and she had no intention of letting these people leave today. Everyone's expressions changed. Consort Rong then walked towards the princess. She harbored resentment, remembering her sister who had died because of Qi Heng. Gu Tingye and his group were approaching Bianjing and slowed their pace. The princess was taken to another location.
It turned out that Consort Rong had colluded with Prince Yan to seek revenge for Prince Yong's family killing Rong Feiyan. Prince Yong was indignant and immediately started fighting with him. The princess was so frightened that she lay prostrate on the ground. The rebels were forcing their way into the palace, and the Emperor had no retreat.
The eunuch quickly came to inform Sheng Hong and others that the palace was now flowing with blood, and the rebels were even taking palace maids to secluded places to commit vile acts. Sheng Changbo quickly shielded Sheng Minglan behind him. Now they also had no retreat. Sheng Minglan remembered the eunuch mentioning a dog hole in this courtyard. Everyone decided to leave from there, but unfortunately, the dog hole could only accommodate small-statured people.
Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbo quickly sent Sheng Minglan out, hoping that at least one of them could escape. Prince Yong and his wife were killed. Consort Rong looked at the princess. The princess immediately burst into laughter, as if insane. Consort Rong said nothing and ordered the princess to be thrown onto the street, so that she could experience being yelled at and cursed by people.
Sheng Minglan disguised herself as a eunuch and was led to a dog hole overgrown with weeds. That eunuch was unwilling to leave together, so Sheng Minglan had no choice but to crawl out on her own to escape for her life. The Emperor was furious and remembered Zhao Zongquan of Yuzhou. He immediately wrote a blood edict, declaring Zhao Zongquan the Crown Prince.
The Emperor took out the military tally, but now no one could go out to deliver the message. The Empress grieved that such a vast imperial city had no loyal and righteous people. At this moment, a thirteen-year-old palace maid stepped forward, willing to leave the palace to deliver the message. Because the Emperor was usually benevolent, and she did not forget to repay his kindness, the Empress quickly entrusted the blood edict and military tally to her.
The rebels entered the inner palace and, surprisingly, first took the Empress away. The imperial city erupted in turmoil and lament. Sheng Minglan heard the commotion and was very flustered. She met that palace maid at the dog hole, and the two simply escaped the palace together. When the rebels learned that a palace maid had left the palace to deliver a message, they quickly sent people to pursue them.
The palace maid wanted to go to Yuzhou, so Sheng Minglan offered to take her home and send her out of the city by carriage. The two got lost and were discovered by the pursuing soldiers, scattering in all directions. Sheng Minglan and the palace maid fled into a restaurant. The palace maid had lost too much blood, so she entrusted the blood edict and military tally to Sheng Minglan, asking her to find Zhao Zongquan to rescue the Emperor.
Sheng Minglan was helpless and could only watch her breathe her last, and then was forced by the pursuers to jump from the upper floor, landing precisely on a carriage. Sheng Minglan drove the carriage frantically out of the city. The pursuers relentlessly chased her, forcing her straight to the outskirts of the capital. Sheng Minglan's carriage was not as fast as the pursuers' horses and was quickly caught up. Those rebels looked at her with lustful expressions.
Sheng Minglan was terrified and could only scream for help, forcing one of the pursuers' eyes to bleed. That pursuer was actually going to kill Sheng Minglan, when suddenly an arrow struck him dead. Sheng Minglan once again fled in panic. Gu Tingye happened to appear nearby and, with Shi Tou, dealt with those soldiers, then went to pursue Sheng Minglan. Sheng Minglan was as flustered as a rabbit.
When she saw Gu Tingye, she immediately burst into tears, begging him to take her to Yuzhou. Gu Tingye, however, pointed to the slope, saying that Zhao Zongquan was right there. Zhao Ceying and Gu Tingye and a few others quickly bowed and entreated the Crown Prince.
Zhao Zongquan was very flustered, feeling that if he reluctantly ascended, there would inevitably be future troubles, and he was even more unwilling for brothers to fight each other, only wishing to live a peaceful life. Gu Tingye quickly spoke up to persuade him, stating that Prince Yan already knew the content of the edict and would certainly not let Zhao Zongquan return safely to Yuzhou.
