Chapter 9
Chapter 9 — The day I returned, the entire General's Palace was afraid
Meanwhile, King Tran Bac took advantage of the empty army in the capital to blatantly launch a rebellion. After just one night, heaven and earth turned upside down. The emperor was trapped in the palace, his life and death were unknown. The entire capital fell under the control of the rebels. The General's Palace, with its status as an absolute loyal servant of the Emperor, naturally became a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh of the rebel army. Early the next morning, several thousand rebels surrounded the entire General's palace to the point where even water could not penetrate. The leader is the number one general under Tran Bac Vuong, who people call "Do Phu" - Truong Cuong.
"Listen to everyone inside! Give you one stick of incense time, immediately open the palace gate, hand over all the female relatives, and raise soldiers. If not, don't blame us for attacking the palace, killing everyone without mercy!"
Truong Cuong's voice was like a loud thunder, resounding and exploding in the sky of the General's palace. The women in the palace had just gone through a terrifying night, and now when they heard those words, they were even more scared to the point of losing their minds.
"What should we do? What should we do?"
“Or… should we surrender?”
"That's right, all they need is a soldier talisman and a woman. If we hand it over, maybe we can still save our lives..."
Ly Thi heard those words without any courage and was so angry that her whole body trembled.
"Everyone shut up for me! Women of my Lam family, only those who fight to the death, absolutely no one surrenders!"
Although she was scared, in her bones, she still retained some of the aura of a General's wife. But what's the use of just having the weather? In the palace right now, there are only a dozen of us women who can fight, along with dozens of family members who have been scared to death. Outside the palace, there were thousands of rebels as ferocious as wolves and tigers. This is a battle where the difference in strength is so great that it makes people despair.
“Mother, we can't sit around waiting to die!”
Lam Thanh Tuyet cried and rushed to Ly Thi's feet.
"That Truong Cuong is a devil who kills people without blinking an eye! If we fall into his hands, we will live worse than die!"
“So tell me what to do!”
Mrs. Ly was so upset by her crying that she became upset.
“Sister… let's go find you!”
Lam Thanh Tuyet's eyes suddenly lit up and she pointed at me.
“Sister is so powerful, there will definitely be a solution!”
For a moment, everyone's eyes focused on him. The noble ladies who yesterday avoided me as if they were avoiding evil, now looked at me with eyes full of supplication and hope. It seems that I am the god who can save them from the abyss of fire. I looked at them and suddenly felt very funny.
“Why should I save you?”
I asked calmly.
“Because we are family!”
Lam Thanh Tuyet did not need to think and immediately answered.
“One person?”
I repeated those three words, my eyes cold as ice.
“When I was thrown into Doc Long Dam and had to compete with wild dogs for food, where were you guys?”
"When I was poisoned, if I didn't know, my intestines would be broken, where would you all be?"
“Now that great disaster has come before our eyes, we all remember that we are one family Star?"
"It's late."
I took "Black Sat" with me, turned around and left.
“My people, follow me.”
“Let's kill them.”
“Where… where are you going?”
Ly Thi panicked.
“Find my father.”
I don't turn around and speak.
“He's not dead yet, I can't let him die.”
“I can't go!”
Mrs. Ly rushed forward, wanting to hold me back.
“I'm gone, what should we do? I have the heart to watch us being defeated by those rebels..."
“Why can't I bear it?”
I interrupted her, without a ripple in my eyes.
“What does your life or death have to do with me?”
“Lin Jingyue! You are a heartless, cold-blooded monster!”
Mrs. Ly finally completely collapsed, pointing at me and loudly cursing.
“Thank you for the compliment.”
I smiled at her. Then, leading her female guards, she walked towards the palace gate. There were thousands of rebels there. That place is the Asura hell. But that place is also the way back home.
