Behind him, a team of three people also fought with the three Japanese.

The people around him finally reacted.

The crowd became increasingly crowded.

Fortunately, due to the large number of officers and soldiers deployed around, there was no crowd surge.

The officers and soldiers fought desperately to block the situation, and more officers and soldiers came from other places to divide the crowd again.

Chang Jizu, who was lying on the wooden box, held the Yanling knife in his hands tightly on the ground and turned around.

After turning around, Chang Jizu's eyes were blood red.

He looked at the battle group fighting together, as well as the other two three-person teams that had rushed over from both sides, and yelled.

"Send the signal!"

The deputy team who led a three-person team on one side immediately took out a signal cannon from his arms, pointed it towards the sky, and pulled open a tab at the bottom.

Whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh!

boom!

A piercing scream spread in the air, and finally with a huge noise, a bright red color ball appeared in the sky.

In an instant, all the officers and soldiers on the Temple of Heaven Street looked up at the red mass in the sky.

The emperor's procession, which had already marched to the middle of the Temple of Heaven Street, stopped immediately.

Zhu Fang and Zhu Yunxi immediately rushed to the front of the team, looking solemnly at the bright red mass in the sky near the Temple of Heaven in front of them.

“Quarantine the crowd!”

"Heavy Shield Guard!"

Zhu Fang and Zhu Yunxi issued orders one after another.

The imperial officers and soldiers who were originally guarding the royal chariot began to push towards the streets on both sides. The officers and soldiers who were originally on the streets began to yell loudly, asking the people on both sides to retreat and disperse.

In the team behind the imperial chariot, a fat and round-waisted officer and soldier, holding a huge and thick heavy shield in both hands, surrounded the imperial chariot of the emperor and the prince.

drink!

The heavy shield fell to the ground, making heavy muffled sounds. The shield fell to the ground, but it could reach as high as a person's chest.

Shields were connected to each other on the left and right, making the surroundings of the imperial chariot airtight.

"The abdication ceremony continues."

In the chaos and silence, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came out calmly and without any emotion in the imperial chariot.

Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Ping, who were standing in front of the royal chariot, looked at each other.

Obviously, the old man will not temporarily postpone the abdication ceremony just because of today's temporary turmoil.

Even though the imperial court had already arranged countless countermeasures.

Including the people who can appear on both sides of Tiantan Street today, officials have also been arranged in advance to teach them that in the event of unrest, they must consciously cooperate with the officers and soldiers to retreat away from Tiantan Street.

Zhu Xi was a little hesitant.

After a brief weighing, Zhu Yunxi said in a deep voice: "Keep going!"

The imperial chariot slowly started to move, but the surrounding officers and soldiers holding heavy shields kept moving and still closely guarded the imperial chariot.

Sun Cheng, who was on the south courtyard wall, finally understood today's layout.

Those Japanese people and those behind the scenes had no intention of starting anything in the Temple of Heaven.

Instead, we want to create chaos on the Temple of Heaven Street and use the countless people present today as threats to create even greater turmoil.

"Quick! Kill anyone suspicious!"

Sun Cheng stood on the wall of the courtyard, the embroidered spring knife in his hand shining brightly with a cold light, and he shouted lowly.

The imperial cavalryman beside him had already blown a bronze whistle.

Unique sounds began to spread on Temple of Heaven Street.

This is Jin Yiwei's internal communication method, and only people from Jin Yiwei can understand the difference in signals.

The royal chariot was still moving towards the Temple of Heaven, and the sounds of fighting began to be heard from the retreating crowds on both sides of the street.

Everything seems to be still within control.

Suddenly.

A huge roar exploded less than thirty steps in front of the chariot.

Dazzling firelight and huge plumes of smoke rose from the ground instantly.

The crowd that was still retreating in an orderly manner according to the backup plan finally became uncontrollable and chaotic.

The crowd began to rush towards all the vacant places.

The streets that were originally empty and reserved for the carriages were suddenly filled with crowded and frightened people.

Countless limbs and broken arms flew over the crowd with the sound of explosions, and were scattered everywhere.

The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the entire street.

Accompanied by the explosion and the horrified crowd, all the court officials and soldiers were stunned for a moment.

Sun Cheng's pupils on the courtyard wall shrank violently.

The thing that I least expected to see finally happened.

Zhu Yunxi trembled all over.

Today's abdication ceremony will be recorded in history.

And in the annals of history, during the abdication ceremony of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, a bandit detonated gunpowder, resulting in a bloody death. This was a huge incident.

In the team behind the imperial chariot, countless officials began to rush towards the imperial chariot.

This is probably the most loyal thing officials can do at the most chaotic time.

The heavy shields surrounding the chariot were pushed aside by the officials.

A number of palace ministers and officials began to block the area around the imperial chariot with their bodies. Some officials even tried to climb onto the imperial chariot and block the empty space with their bodies.

A strange scene appeared on the Temple of Heaven Street.

The officials of the Hongwu Dynasty were obviously afraid of the emperor to death, but at this critical moment, they all risked their lives to block the imperial chariot with their own flesh and blood.

But at this moment.

Zhu Shangbing, who was behind the chariot, suddenly roared angrily.

"There is a traitor!"

After a roar, Zhu Shangbing rushed to the rear of the chariot with his bare hands.

Zhu Gaochi, who was beside him, had his eyes widened, completely unaware of what happened.

I saw Zhu Shangbing rushing behind the heavy shield, and with a tiger pounce, he threw the two red-robed officials to the ground.

"Block!"

"kill!"

In front of the imperial chariot, Zhu Yunxi also grabbed a long knife from the hands of the officers and soldiers on the side. He looked at a group of Japanese people rushing out from the smoke and dust caused by the explosion. He roared and rushed forward.

There was chaos all around the imperial chariot.

And further away, you can see the entire Temple of Heaven Street.

A sneer sounded.

"The first case of the Yongsheng Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty is here."
