<h4>Chapter 398 Second Prince’s Rebellions (4)</h4>


    Hai Fa Xiaughed when he saw the scene then walked out of the main hall calmly. He instructed the guards to close the door and guard the prince properly.


    Bang!


    *cough* *cough*


    "Your Highness, are you alright?" Mu Fei Xin staggered and moved closer to Prince Yang Lu. The guards were all protecting her well since they didn''t want her to be used to threaten Prince Yang Lu.


    Mu Fei Xin held Prince Yang Lu''s hand, hoping that her warmth could ease the poison within Prince Yang Lu''s body.


    Prince Yang Lu coughed and looked around him. Not only his guards, but the guards from Hai Fa Xia was also on the verge of fainting. It seemed that only Hai Fa Xia himself took the antidote.


    "Kill them all."


    "Yes, Your Highness."


    As the guards struggled very badly to kill the guards from Hai Family, Prince Yang Lu propped himself to the nearest pir. His body felt so heavy that he wished he could just sleep. However, he knew that the moment he rested, it would be impossible for him to wake up anytime soon.


    His eyes were filled with hatred as he looked in the direction of the door. He knew very well that from the moment he came here, his uncle''s n had seeded. No matter whether he came out of this alive or dead, his name would be stuck in history as the leader of Second Prince''s Rebellions.


    How ridiculous.


    *cough* *cough*


    "Your Highness!" Mu Fei Xin grabbed Prince Yang Lu''s hand tightly and moved closer to him. She hugged him with all of her strength. "You''ll be fine, Your Highness."


    Prince Yang Lu didn''t answer, but his eyes were exuding coldness and unwillingness. He had prepared the guards and also everything else, but he failed to notice that even with all of this preparation, it was not enough.


    "Have you set the fire?"


    "Yes, Your Highness. Before wee here, we have already set the fire at the other side of the residence," The guards replied respectfully. Even though he had difficulties in moving, he still continued to be polite towards Prince Yang Lu.


    Prince Yang Lu nodded. "That''s good then."


    Because the death of Empress Dowager Hai was so sudden, Prince Yang Lu didn''t have enough time to gather people toe here. He could only ask his people to send messages to othermanders around the area.


    He didn''t believe that they wouldn''te here when they see the smoke and fire messages in the middle of the night like this.


    "What are you going to do now, Your Highness?" Mu Fei Xin asked softly.


    "Rest."


    Mu Fei Xin looked at her husband and then hugged him tightly. She would never leave him alone no matter what happened.


    Looking at Mu Fei Xin, the gaze on Prince Yang Lu''s eyes warmed a bit. Even though there were so many women thrown into his residence, he didn''t really pay much attention to them. The only one who truly apanied him almost all the time was only his legal wife, this woman in his arms.


    He silently tightened his grip on her.


    In front of the two of them, the guard veered his gaze elsewhere. For some reason, he felt that he should have never watched the two of them. He sat down not far from them to protect them while waiting for the poison to dismiss from his bloodstream.


    …


    Outside the main hall


    "Master, the smoke is still rising higher."


    Hai Fa Xia looked at the back of Hai Family Residence as his eyes turned cold. Just when he was busy dealing with the officials and also to pull them to his side, Prince Yang Lu had sent distress signal to the othermanders nearby.


    It was so annoying.


    "Who are stationed near Kuai City?"


    The soldier looked a bit flustered as he quickly replied, "There are Great General Nan, Young Commander Chi, Young Commander Long, and Young Commander Feng."


    Hearing the list of names, Hai Fa Xia nearly vomited blood. Why were all the youngmanders were stationed near him? Don''t tell him that even the Young Commander Shangguan was also here?


    The soldier was looking at the list. "Uhm, Young Commander Shangguan is quite a distance away. It''s said that he''s resting not far from the other city we''re supposed to receive reinforcement this morning."


    "Which Young Commander Shangguan?"


    "Second Young Commander Shangguan."


    The image of a young man floated in Hai Fa Xia''s mind. He naturally knew Second Young Commander Shangguan referred to Shangguan Xiao, the two faced b*stard.


    "That cunning man." Hai Fa Xia rubbed his forehead. "Shouldn''t he be at the frontline?"


    "He moved yesterday morning for some reason."


    There was no one who knew why Shangguan Xiao suddenly moved his post. And since he was part of an independent army, it was harder for anyone to order him around. He was given free rein to move in ordance to his wish at the frontline.


    The problem was.


    Kuai City was not supposed to be part of the frontline.


    "Do as proceeded." Hai Fa Xia waved his hand. He looked at the inner part of the residence as his eyebrows furrowed. "Gather the children to one ce. I don''t want them to make any ruckuses."


    "Yes, Master."


    …


    Old Master Nan''s Side


    "General! There''s a smoke from Kuai City. Based on the color, it seems to be the signal to call for help."


    Bang!


    The door opened almost immediately. Old Master Nan furrowed his eyebrows when he looked in the direction of Kuai City. Before he departed because of the sudden deployment order, he had allowed his grandchildren to visit Kuai City.


    "Ask everyone to prepare. We''ll head to Kuai City."


    "YES!"


    Gazing towards Kuai City, Old Master Nan felt immense worry. For some reason, he felt that no matter where his grandchildren were, they would always get embroiled in some kind of problem. It was so worrying.


    "Hou Lin."


    "Master."
