Chapter five hundred and ninetieth twists and turns
Outside the Wenquan Palace, Yelu Zhirang and his captured men were all imprisoned in a camp. The injuries on their bodies had been simply bandaged. It was not an exaggeration to implicate the nine clans according to their crime of rebellion, but Xiao Noujin did not kill them for the time being. Instead, they still needed to keep them as witnesses for the Yelu Zongzhen coup, so that his throne could be deposed legitimately.
Yelu Zhi got several arrows, especially the arrow in his right chest, which was several inches into his flesh, which should have hurt his lungs, making him feel the pain in his lungs every time he breathed. In addition, his right arm was also cut by someone. It was a knife when he was about to commit suicide. He was unable to die, so he has become a prisoner.
"Who betrayed Your Majesty!" Yelu Zhirang said to himself at this time. When they killed the Hot Spring Palace today, the palace was full of soldiers, and they were obviously prepared for it. However, only he and Yelu Xisun and others knew about the coup. The only possibility was that someone betrayed Yelu Zongzhen. He thought of this with Yelu Zongzhen.
However, among these people who are familiar with the matter, almost everyone is Yelu Zong really loyal, so he can't think of someone who betrays them after thinking about it. However, if you insist on saying that the person with the most suspicion is the only one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who
This was not Yelu Zhirang's unreasonable suspicion, but had considerable basis. Among their confidants, the only thing that he couldn't see through was Yelu Renxian, especially he knew that Yelu Renxian had previously opposed the coup and was scolded by Yelu Zongzhen, and finally sent him to Zhongjing to monitor Xiao Xiaoxian.
Although the task of monitoring Xiao Xiaoxian is also very important, in comparison, the contribution of directly participating in the coup is even greater. If the coup is successful, he and Yelu Xisun will be the first contribution, and Yelu Renxian's contribution will be smaller, so this will inevitably make Yelu Renxian feel dissatisfied.
More importantly, when Yelu Zhirang was arrested, he also met Xiao Xiaoxian, who should have been in Zhongjing. In other words, Xiao Xiaoxian probably knew about their coup, so he prepared in advance. However, Yelu Renxian, who was monitoring Xiao Xiaoxian, did not send any news back, which also made his suspicion even worse.
Just as Yelu Zhirang was thinking about it, the sky outside became darker, and all of them were tied up. Although the wounds on their bodies were bandaged, the purpose was to make them unable to die. As for food, there was definitely no food. Anyway, they would not be hungry if they didn't eat it.
Yelu Zhirang had long lost his will to die at this time. After all, everyone had the instinct to survive. He wanted to commit suicide when he was captured before, but he had exhausted all his courage. Although he knew that he would be killed sooner or later, he just wanted to live now, but this time he would implicate his family.
Thinking of his family, Yelu Zhirang also thought of the sister who was far away in the Song Dynasty, and also thought of Li Zhang who warned him last time. Last time, thanks to Li Zhang's warning, the family escaped. At that time, Xiao Nojin seemed to be crazy and captured the nobles related to Xiao Guanyin one by one, but his mother was Xiao Guanyin's own sister. If they were also in Zhongjing at that time, they would probably have died and no life.
"Oh, Li Zhang is quite magical. He can see the crisis of the Great Liao at a glance. Unfortunately, he can only save me once, but he can't save me a second time." Yelu Zhirang sighed and said with emotion. Of course, he would never have dreamed that the reason why he ended like this was because of Li Zhang's warning. Otherwise, he should have sang songs with Yelu Zongzhen to celebrate his achievements and would never fall to the point of being imprisoned.
Yelu Zhi, who was thinking randomly, finally felt sleepy. It was almost three o'clock at this time. He was confused and didn't know when he fell asleep. However, before he could sleep for too long, he suddenly heard a hustle and bustle outside. Then someone shouted: "Welcome to the enemy!Welcome to the enemy..."
Hearing this voice, Yelu Zhirang opened his eyes immediately, and the other prisoners in the tent were awakened, but they were all tied up and could not move at all, and it was even more impossible to go out to check the movements outside.
However, the sound of fighting outside became clearer and clearer, and the entire camp was in chaos. From time to time, you could see soldiers running outside the camp, and screams of death came from a distance. It was obvious that a tragic battle had occurred.
"Who? Who came in at this time? Could it be that Your Majesty has arranged a backup plan?" Yelu Zhirang guessed some at this time, and immediately showed an ecstatic expression. If Yelu Zongzhen arranged a backup plan and now he took advantage of the night to kill the palace and then control Xiao Nojin, then they could turn defeat into victory.
Thinking of the above, Yelu Zhirang couldn't help but show an ecstatic expression. He thought he was dead, but he didn't expect that the turn of things would turn around and there would be a day to turn around. The others were also extremely excited at this time, but they were also worried while they were happy. After all, if the reinforcements did not come, or the palace guards rushed in and executed them now, they would be in vain.
I have to say that Yelu Zhirang and theirs were lucky. The reinforcements outside seemed to be very powerful and soon entered the camp. Even outside their tents were soldiers fighting. At this time, no one could care about these prisoners, which made Yelu Zhirang even more excited.
After a while, someone suddenly broke into the tent. When they saw them, their eyes lit up immediately and they immediately loosened their ties. Then someone ran out to report the news. After a while, a young man in iron armor strode in. Yelu Zhirang also shouted in surprise when he saw the other party: "Renxian! Why are you?"
The person who came in was Yelu Zhirang Yelu Renxian, who had suspected betrayal before, but at this time, Yelu Renxian was covered in blood and the long sword in his hand was chopped and the whole person looked like Shura who had walked out of hell.
"Where is Your Majesty?" Yelu Renxian didn't say nonsense when he saw Yelu Zhirang, and immediately asked.
"I don't know, but it's very likely that he will be imprisoned in His Majesty's bedroom." Yelu Zhirang replied immediately. After being captured, he was detained here and did not see Yelu Zongzhen. Moreover, Yelu Zongzhen is still the emperor now, so it is very likely that he is still in the palace.
"Search me to the palace to rescue Your Majesty!" Yelu Renxian said immediately again, and after saying that, he took the knife and walked out. Although Yelu Zhirang felt weak all over, he still forced himself to follow him. After all, now is not the time to rest.
Yelu Zhirang, who left the camp, realized that there were quite a few people brought by Yelu Renxian. He saw hundreds of people around him. In addition, soldiers were fighting everywhere in the camp. It was estimated that Yelu Renxian might have brought thousands of people, which was much better than the more than 200 people he had worked hard to get.
"Where did you find this army?" Yelu Zhirang quickly caught up with Yelu Renxian and asked loudly.
"Now is not the time to say this. There is a horse next to you. Come with me to rescue Your Majesty. I am worried that the Empress Dowager will be unfavorable to Your Majesty when she discovers the situation here!" Yelu Renxian turned over and then pointed at the horse next to her and said.
Although Yelu Zhirang was curious, he also knew that it was really important to rescue Yelu Sect now, so he stopped talking nonsense. He immediately endured the pain and got on the horse, and then followed Yelu Ren to the palace first.
When he rushed out of this camp, Yelu Zhirang discovered that it turned out that the army led by Yelu Renxian was only one of them, and the other camps were also hit by the army, which surprised him even more. It seemed that Yelu Renxian had brought at least tens of thousands of troops, but they had no military power at all, so where did this army come from?
But now it is not the time to ask about this. The palace is at the foot of the mountain in front. They have already broken through the camp outside. As long as they kill in, they can find Yelu Zongzhen, and may even capture Xiao Nojin alive. Thinking of this, Yelu Zhirang also felt that his whole body was full of strength. His previous hunger and fatigue seemed to have disappeared. He pulled out his sword and shouted "Kill~", and then followed Yelu Ren to the palace first.
At the same time, Xiao Xiaoxian and Xiao Nojin in the palace did not expect anyone to kill in the middle of the night. They had already defeated the coup in Yelu Zongzhen during the day, and were very relaxed at this time, just waiting to rush back to Zhongjing tomorrow and then announce the deposed emperor. However, they did not expect that something happened that night, which made them unprepared.
However, Xiao Xiaoxian has experienced a big scene after all. When he was stationed in Shangjing, he encountered the Dayanlin rebellion and caused Shangjing to be surrounded. Even his wife died in the chaos. So when he learned that there were unknown enemy troops outside and rushed to Xiao Nojin's bedroom.
"What's going on outside?" Xiao Nojin also asked Xiao Xiaoxian with a pale face. She was woken up in her sleep just now, and then panicked. Fortunately, Zhao Anren is with her side, and now she feels more at ease when she sees Xiao Xiaoxian.
"A large army of unknown origin has arrived. I escort the queen mother away immediately!" Xiao Xiaoxian pointed outside the hall and shouted loudly. He was ready for the carriage and horses, and there were two thousand palace guards, enough to escort them away. As for the situation outside, he didn't know. After all, it was too dark now, and there were shouts of killing everywhere. He was worried that Xiao Nojin would have an accident when he stayed here, and it would be all over.
When Xiao Nojin heard a large army coming, his face showed a look of panic again. After all, no matter how arrogant and domineering she was, she was just a woman. She was timid in the face of mutiny. She nodded and agreed immediately. Then, with Zhao Anren's support, she got on the carriage. However, at this time, she did not forget to order: "Go and bring Your Majesty to leave!"
"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager, I have sent someone!" Xiao Xiaoxian reported immediately. Of course, he would not forget Yelu Zongzhen. In fact, when he came to see Xiao Nojin, he had already sent someone to take Yelu Zongzhen.
