“Not long ago I was a lady of
the Imperial Court . . .
Today I command my own troops.”
Drumbeats roll. On top of the walls the city guards signal to their soldiers on the field that the city itself is under attack. Some of Emperor Yang Di’s soldiers turn to stop Ping Yang. The huge gates of the city slowly creak open. Ping Yang sees her chance, signalling to the soldiers beside her. Together they charge, like a battering ram of horses, soldiers and armour through the Emperor’s soldiers. Ping Yang and her troops keep pushing to the city gates and past them.
They are through the gates! They are inside the Daxing! Elated Ping Yang rides across the inner court. Ping Yang knows this city well and races her horse down the city’s main avenue. It is usually full of people but now everyone hides. She heads straight to the Palace. At the steps of the Palace she pulls her horse to a holt. It is quiet - too quiet. She expects hundreds of soldiers here. Is this a trap?
