They felt that as long as they left the capital, there would be no conditions for such a heavy siege, and those officers and soldiers would not be able to surround the prince and the others.
After all, the capital is not very convenient. As long as the roads are guarded by officers and soldiers, it will be difficult for anyone to fly.
Moreover, the prince and princess' relatives and friends are all here. If the emperor wants to use these people to threaten them, it will be troublesome.
So the common people are willing to use their own flesh and blood to open the way for the palace!
However, Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu rejected this proposal and did not allow any of them to act without authorization, nor allowed anyone to conflict with the officers and soldiers to avoid causing a large-scale massacre.
When officers and soldiers clash, it is the common people who often suffer, because the emperor will definitely order the officers and soldiers to take the initiative.
The officers and soldiers were armed with weapons, strong swords, and even heavy weapons. If they were used to deal with the common people, let alone the common people of a city, even if they were more common people, it would be useless.
What they need to take advantage of is just a kind of public opinion, an atmosphere, and a kind of oppression, rather than a real conflict.
This requires a certain degree of control.
There seemed to be a happy spring breeze in the Qianqing Palace. The emperor was in a very happy mood and said happily: "The Imperial Master really made a good suggestion. Originally we were worried that such words would cause civil unrest. But we just overestimated Xiao Xian. How could he be so good?" Those people are just talking about his great charm. If he is really about to die and he can run faster than anyone else, who will care about him? After a while of confrontation, and when the people get out of the way of their own accord, they will attack the palace. Here. I will bombard you with cannons!"
A body of flesh and blood, no matter how powerful it is, is still a body of flesh and blood, and it is definitely no match for artillery.
Chu Ting smiled proudly and said nothing.
Ye Sheng always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't explain it. He glanced at Chu Ting.
The confrontation reached noon, when someone suddenly sent a message and the officers and soldiers began to retreat in batches.
The emperor heard this and said angrily: "I didn't give the order, why retreat?"
The post envoy said: "Report to Your Majesty that there are military talismans."
"Nonsense! Ridiculous!" The emperor was furious, "I have the military talisman in my hand. How did I see the military talisman? Check it, check it for me, what is going on."
I checked it immediately and found out that there was indeed a military talisman, and it was exactly the same as the emperor's military talisman. Even the emperor couldn't prove that his own was real.
Under the influence of the military talisman, most of the officers and soldiers had retreated and moved quickly. When everything was confirmed, the common people reoccupied more streets and wanted to escort the palace away.
If Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian want to leave, then they can quickly send their relatives and friends out of the city at this time.
After leaving the city, there are several small roads leading to the natural chasm, which can only be passed by one person. The officers and soldiers cannot defend it at all.
Because Wan Qinghou and Chu Ting have arranged enough people to guard there, those places belong to them.
As long as you leave the city, there will be someone to pick you up and you can quickly arrange to go there immediately.
But the emperor still had to make the final struggle. He didn't want to give Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu this chance. At the same time, he completely helped Chu Ting implement this plan.
Marquis Wan Qing originally carried out Shen Mingzhu's order and wanted to avoid conflict, so he used forged military symbols to move the officers and soldiers away. Then everyone could retreat safely, and there would be someone to help them when they left the city, so everything was safe.
But the emperor immediately activated the Yulin Guards!
The officers and soldiers withdrew from the city and did not have time to come back to intercept the people in the palace.
