Tan Hong Fei unleashed the injustice he had felt and suppressed all these twenty years, perhaps he had already lost his mind. First, he sent troops to surround the Imperial Uncle's residence. When he learned that the old bastard had left his wife and children behind to hide himself in the palace, he immediately turned around, boldly went up against the Imperial Army arriving at the site for the rescue.

From before until now, the Imperial Army and the Northern Camp were companions. As the last line of defense of the most crucial territory, they would always run into each other.

The Imperial Army was mainly composed of two parts: the 'young master' type who joined by the back door and ate imperial salary; and the elites selected from the Northern Camp. The former had long since wet themselves from fright and could not be relied on at all. The latter, although capable, as they suddenly confronted their 'birth family', for a while, they were also in a dilemma. As Chang Geng had expected, the army was soon scattered.

The sound of performance on Qi Yuan Tower was still echoing, warm flower wine and white fog had not yet disappeared, Sijiu City had already boiled up.

Tan Hong Fei led his men pressing outside the forbidden palace and took off his helmet as if he was holding his own head.

First, he knelt down and performed the formal courtesy of three deep bows in the direction of the main hall. Then, he shouted at the row of guards blocking in front of him, "Sinner Tan Hong Fei, greetings to Your Majesty. I ask of Your Majesty to please hand over the traitor who is now hiding inside the palace, giving justice to my millions of brothers and comrades who had protected our country, giving the world an explanation! Your subject is willing to pay for the crime of disrespecting the monarch with death!"

Inside the palace, Emperor Li Feng was able to hear this, but before he could afford to reprimand Wang Guo, he was already furious. The courage of the Son of Heaven was not at all comparable to the likes of the Imperial Uncle who fled with his tail. Li Feng almost even shattered the jade seal. Disregarding how people tried to stop him, he changed his clothes and moved to the front of the hall, confronting Tan Hong Fei face to face.

The capital’s Heavy Soldiers and the palace guards were separated by a few inches of white marble steps, even birds on the wall would break a sweat.

In this utmost dangerous stalemate, Gu Yun finally arrived in time.

Gu Yun took with him only twenty people, forcefully opening a path through the Northern Camp currently surrounding the palace and went straight inside.
