Chapter 57 Massacre of the Imperial City (Additional update for the leader)
Crosstown.
There is a town not far from the Imperial Capital. It is very prosperous because it is located on a major transportation road, but now it is very deserted.
It's really deserted.
Normally, there would be an endless stream of businessmen traveling from north to south, and many martial arts figures would stop here temporarily, but now there are not many pedestrians on the street.
At dusk, Yuelai Inn.
Jiang Ming and the others built a small courtyard at the back. This is a courtyard specially provided for merchants. It is very exquisite.
In the courtyard, three people sat facing the moon.
well……
Jin Captou sighed softly and frowned deeply: "I didn't expect so many things to happen in the Imperial Capital. I wonder how your highness is doing?"
"No one would have thought." Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
"Her skills are still a bit poor!" Jiang Ming said while holding the tea cup.
"What's the difference?" A figure jumped up, landed next to him, lifted his hood, revealing a delicate and tired face, it was His Highness Feng Wu, Ninth Princess Yan Feng.
Underneath the fatigue, there is sadness and hatred that cannot be concealed.
There were still blood stains on his body.
someone else's.
"Your Highness!" Jin Captou immediately stood up.
"You should cut through the mess quickly and kill the prince directly and behead the other princes." Jiang Ming had sensed the other prince's aura a long time ago and said coldly, "The battle for imperial power has been cruel since ancient times. Especially when your father is old and bedridden, the court
When you are under the control of the prince, if you want to achieve great things, you must be ruthless and ruthless.
, you must be decisive. But you, you guys, are only planning in secret. At the critical moment, you still want to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers. This is doomed to your end. This is not a private fight between rivers and lakes, let alone a child's play. At the last moment, it is all
Being open and aboveboard creates a great trend. Once the trend is established, it will be unstoppable."
The Ninth Princess sat down and was silent.
Regarding the changes in the Imperial Capital, Jiang Ming and others also received news in the past two days.
It's just that it's changing too fast.
The old emperor died suddenly, and the imperial edict passed on the throne to the prince. The second and third princes refused to accept it and spread rumors that the prince had plotted to murder the old emperor. They led troops to raid the palace, but were killed by the prince.
In addition, there were several princes who made a fuss, causing the imperial capital to be filled with smoke and blood.
Many people were involved.
There were countless casualties.
The second prince died in battle, the third prince died in battle, the sixth prince died in battle, and so on.
The sixth prince is also the biological brother of the ninth princess.
"What exactly happened? What's the secret? Did Wang Wudi take any action?" Lu Yuan asked.
Jiang Ming poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of the other party.
"For the defense of the imperial capital, there are four imperial camps stationed outside the city, each with 50,000 troops; there are eighteen city gates in the imperial capital, and each gate has a thousand city defense troops. There are six gates in the city.
Lin Wei, the palace has imperial guards and secret guards. The prince
Controlling the Shadow Guard." The Ninth Princess picked up the tea cup and took a sip, with a low voice, "Because you are too powerful, he feels that you threaten his life, and in order to deal with you, he must use all his strength. So...
To integrate forces.”
She gritted her teeth, showing a look of hatred.
"He killed his father. Since the secret guard had already become his, he announced to the public that his father had died of illness."
The ninth princess showed hatred.
No matter what, he is her father.
After a moment of silence, she spoke slowly again.
In the imperial capital, many princes covet the throne, and they have been fighting to the death secretly.
The power to protect the imperial capital was almost divided among several princes. On the surface, the prince did not have much advantage at all, but in the end, he secretly bribed many of them.
When the old emperor died, the second and third princes, headed by them, prepared to liquidate the prince. As a result, a big war broke out in the palace.
Almost all the forces in the Imperial Capital were involved.
The prince controls the Secret Guard composed of eunuchs, as well as the Shadow Secret Guard, the Imperial Guard, etc.
"In addition, Lengyue Palace also took action. I don't know when he became the prince's person." The Ninth Princess sighed, "One of the deputy commanders of the six gates was bribed by the prince and poisoned Commander Wang to keep him for a short time.
There is no fighting power inside. I finally suppressed the six gates and consolidated my strength to wait for the opportunity. But during this period, the emperor brother, he, he did not listen to the advice and secretly went to the palace to persuade peace, but he was killed."
She shed tears.
Lu Yuan rolled his eyes vaguely.
The golden catcher seemed to be sighing.
Jiang Ming was speechless.
Isn't this ridiculous?
We were fighting to the death, and your sister kept running for you and plotting secretly, but you went to persuade her to make peace?
This is not naive, but stupid.
Adou who cannot be helped.
"It's not his fault." Ninth Princess whispered, "He has always thought about the harmony of his family, and that no matter how much we don't deal with each other, brothers are blood relatives after all. I have said many times, many times, that this is a life-or-death situation.
,But……"
Jiang Ming scratched his head and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
"Do you want revenge?"
"I still want to ascend to the throne and become the first queen in history!"
Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes.
The Ninth Princess suddenly raised her head.
Jin Captou looked shocked.
Lu Yuan was shocked.
"Two hundred thousand troops have besieged the imperial capital, and the internal situation is almost pacified. The crown prince's situation has been achieved." The ninth princess's eyes glowed, her heart was pounding, but she shook her head and said, "There are countless troops in the country, and the Northern Barbarians are also sure at this time.
Watching with eager eyes."
"Just tell me whether you want it or not!" Jiang Ming said.
The Ninth Princess took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Her breath fluctuated violently, and finally condensed into one breath, and her momentum surged greatly.
She opened her eyes, there was no fatigue, no weakness, only blazing fire and ambition: "Think!"
"How much power do you still control?"
"Even if Brother Six is gone, I can still mobilize a Beijing camp, four city defense camps, and the six gates that are temporarily under house arrest."
"There is still so much power!" Jiang Ming was surprised.
After all, she is a woman.
I originally thought that the power I controlled was all attached to the identity of the sixth prince, but now it seems that the ability of the ninth princess is really extraordinary.
"If there is a bloodbath in the court, a bloodbath in the capital, etc., can you control it all?"
"Yes! There are people of mine in the capital camp. Although the official positions are not very high, it is not difficult to control them after the bloodbath. As for the civil servants? It's better. If they don't obey, they will be replaced. No, kill them! The most difficult thing is the meritorious lineage.
, there are also clans, the royal family has a Senate, and there are many strong people. Now
In the palace, there are at least three great masters, more than 30 grand masters, and countless talents. The imperial guards and the imperial guards are all the elites of the elite. If, if it really comes to that step, the vassal kings outside may turn against them.
I will definitely seize the opportunity to invade."
"This is all a trivial matter!" Jiang Ming stood up and looked down at the other party with stern eyes. "The most important point is, are you willing to bear the infamy?"
Princess Ninth's breath was stagnant, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly.
She was very smart and naturally knew what Jiang Ming meant. She took a deep breath and her eyes became firmer: "Yes!"
"But, can you really do it?" Ninth Princess's voice trembled slightly, "Can you really help me all the time? Without you, even if I succeed in the Imperial Capital, I will die miserably."
Jiang Ming smiled, looked up at the moon, and said calmly: "Brother Lu, with my help, has reached the level of a grand master, and it is not comparable to ordinary grand masters."
"Jin Baotou is already at the peak of a grandmaster. It will not be difficult to help her become a grandmaster in the future!"
