Deep underground in the palace, there is actually a deep and winding tunnel. One end of the tunnel is connected to the underground location of the dragon bed, and the other end leads to a hidden place in Xiyuan.
Xiyuan has been Zhu Di's residence in Beijing since the Yongle Dynasty. Based on the royal gardens of the Yuan Dynasty, it has been built for more than ten years. As Zhu Di's long-term residence, it contains a very grand secret tunnel mechanism. When Zheng Zheng
He pulled down the curtain and activated the mechanism under the dragon bed. The bed board immediately turned down, sending the emperor and Zheng He into the secret passage under the dragon bed.
Then the bed board was turned up again, blocking King Zhao and others from the secret passage.
This was Zhu Di's last resort. Except for him and Zheng He, all the craftsmen and eunuchs who knew this secret had long been secretly executed. Even the two people in charge of the palace, Huang Yan and Yang eunuchs, had no idea...
Zheng He protected the emperor and landed firmly on the thick bedding, and then used a fire stick to light the oil lamp embedded in the wall of the secret passage. The design of the oil lamp was ingenious. When one lamp was lit, the next one also lit up.
One by one, they were connected in a line, illuminating the long and winding secret passage.
Zheng He then carried the emperor on his back and walked towards the depths of the secret passage. Zhu Di was completely weak and lay softly on Zheng He's back. His face was ashen as he watched the lights swaying one after another in front of his eyes, and finally endured it.
He couldn't help but sigh and said: "Unexpectedly, I have been so domineering all my life, and in the end I actually ran away from the ground like a mouse."
"Your Majesty, please don't say that." Zheng He's martial arts are very strong. Even if he is lower than Zhao Ying, he is not much lower. Carrying Zhu Di on his back, he is still walking fast, and his voice does not tremble at all: "Who would have thought that King Zhao
Will it be so crazy? Fortunately, as long as you pass this level, Your Majesty can still easily clean up the situation."
"Hey." Zhu Di's mood has indeed improved. Indeed, as long as he leaves Xiyuan and contacts Zhu Neng, Xue Lu and others, the chaos of King Zhao will definitely be put down. It's just that he can be forced to do this by a traitor
, how can Emperor Yongle, who has always been arrogant, swallow this breath?
After walking a long distance on Zheng He's back, Zhu Di asked quietly again: "Tell me, what happened to the warrior camp in the secret passage?"
Zheng He was also puzzled and said slowly: "Looking at King Zhao's reaction at that time, he seemed to be very surprised. Could someone else be causing trouble?"
"It must be like this, otherwise the news would not have leaked out so quickly, and King Zhao would not have launched an attack in advance," Zhu Di frowned and said with deep understanding: "Who is behind this?"
Zheng He shook his head and was about to say that he couldn't understand it either. Suddenly his expression changed and he turned around and left with the emperor on his back.
Zhu Di was startled by Zheng He's reaction, and then he saw billowing smoke coming from the tunnel ahead. There was obviously an ambush!
Zheng He took two steps back with the emperor on his back. He was horrified to find that there was also billowing smoke on the way back. He couldn't help but secretly regretted that if he hadn't been distracted by talking to the emperor just now, how could he not have noticed the abnormality on the way!
"Your Majesty, hold your breath, I'll carry you and rush over!" Zheng He said through gritted teeth. As for what way to go through the thick smoke, he no longer had time to think about it.
The emperor nodded, held his breath, and saw wind blowing under Zheng He's feet, and his speed suddenly increased several times.
But the thick smoke in the tunnel seemed to be endless. Zheng He rushed out a few feet away and disappeared from the east, west, north, south, and his whole person was submerged in the smoke!
Fortunately, Zheng He had long internal strength and could hold his breath for much longer than ordinary people, so he didn't have to worry about being out of breath for a while.
Unexpectedly, after running a few feet further, Zheng He was suddenly tripped by something. He was caught off guard and his whole body was thrown forward.
Zheng He had to hold his breath, and he had to worry about the emperor on his back. He didn't dare to react at all, so he fell straight to the ground, groaned involuntarily, and took in a hissing breath, feeling the strange fragrance.
Smoke poured into his body, Zheng He's head buzzed, and he knew it was over.
Sure enough, when he struggled to get up from the ground carrying the emperor, he had lost the ability to hold his breath and inevitably inhaled more and more smoke.
Zheng He insisted on carrying the emperor on his back and walked a few feet further. Seeing the smoke in front of him was almost gone, he felt that the world was spinning and his hands and feet were weak. He finally couldn't hold on and fell straight to the ground. Zhu Di also rolled to the ground like a barrel, his head
Unluckily enough, he knocked himself against the wall, causing blood to flow out immediately.
However, Zhu Di had already fainted before Zheng He, so he couldn't feel the pain...
On the Nanhai Lake, Taisun also reached the last moment.
The ships of King Zhao's army desperately resisted Jin Yiwei's reinforcements, making Dai Hua and others unable to get close for a while. However, he was pressed by Zhao Ying step by step and had already retreated to the door of the cabin.
Zhao Ying raised his hand, as slender and white as a woman's, and said with a sinister smile: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, old slave." He said that he would take the grandson's life with one palm strike!
Zhu Zhanji shouted and fell into the cabin on his back, narrowly escaping Zhao Ying's palm.
Seeing Zhu Zhanji lying down in the cabin, with his feet still struggling outside the cabin, trying to get up and escape, Zhao Ying felt extremely happy! So what about the dragon son, dragon grandson, he would kill as soon as he asked!
After having a premonition that he would not be able to live forever, Zhao Ying's heart was filled with the evil desire to destroy everything! He took a step forward and was about to open the cabin curtain. Suddenly, he felt horrified and saw a sharp sword light coming from the cabin.
out!
Without even thinking about it, Zhao Ying slammed the iron bridge and fell backwards. However, the sword strike from Feixian Wai that day came too suddenly, and the sword technique was too sharp. Zhao Ying tried his best, but it was just a mediocre result.
Avoiding the vital point, a wound deep enough to show the bone was made on the right chest!
Zhao Ying screamed, and the hidden weapon in his hand was activated, and he shot at the enemy rushing in the air like lightning!
Zhao Ying's martial arts are the most sinister in the world, and his hidden weapons are unparalleled in the world. At such a close distance, absolutely no one can avoid him!
Sure enough, the swordsman had no intention of evading, and allowed the concealed weapon to focus on the vital points of his lower abdomen. However, there was no muffled sound of the concealed weapon entering the flesh, but a clanking sound of gold and iron!
Zhao Ying's eyes widened, and he immediately understood that the other party had long expected that he would have such a skill, and was very aware of his habit of shooting hidden weapons, so he had already prepared protection at the corresponding position!
When the attack failed, Zhao Ying stood up like a carp, and in the blink of an eye he was out of the range of the swordsman's attack. He stood on the bow of the ship holding his wound, staring bitterly at the middle-aged scribe standing at the hatch holding a long sword.
"Hu Hao!" Zhao Ying shouted through gritted teeth: "You come to this muddy water too!"
"I was ordered to protect the emperor's grandson, so why would I want to wade into troubled waters?" Hu Hao said righteously.
Zhao Ying's expression suddenly darkened. He knew that with Hu Hao here, there was no way he could capture his grandson today!
Back then, the British Duke Zhang Fu talked to Wang Xian about the martial arts masters in the world, saying that besides himself, there were five great masters in the world, all of whom were top masters who could defeat a hundred with one! They were Lin San, Han Wang, Zhao Ying, Chang Sen and Hu Hao!
Hu Hao can be said to be the least noticeable among the six great masters. However, he is a direct disciple of Wudang and Xianyun's official uncle. He has acquired the true inheritance of Wudang's unique skills. In addition, he is extremely talented and talented. He is thirty years old.
At the age of six, he became the world's number one master of Tai Chi. Both Tai Chi boxing and Tai Chi sword were said to be unparalleled. Otherwise, Zhu Di would not have sent him and Zheng He to search for Jianwen by land and water for more than ten years!
Three years ago, Emperor Jianwen was arrested, and the missions of Hu Hao and Zheng He were completed. The latter stayed with the emperor to take charge of the defense of Dauchi, while the former had no news at all. No one knew what secret mission he was performing. Unexpectedly, at this moment,
Appear next to Taisun!
Although normally speaking, Hu Hao may not be able to defeat Zhao Ying, but Tai Chi Kung Fu's defense comes first. Even if Zhao Ying is not injured, there is still nothing he can do to Hu Hao!
Now Hu Hao was ambushing in the cabin, severely injuring Zhao Ying with a sword, and the balance of victory and defeat had completely tilted.
Zhao Ying was always decisive in his actions, but when he saw a bad opportunity, he fought with Hu Hao for a few moves. When he saw the opportunity, he jumped into the water, stepped on the template he had left behind, and flew across the lake for a long distance like a water bird.
Landed on one of our own ships.
Hu Hao wanted to protect his grandson and did not pursue him. He only stood beside his grandson with a sword and looked at the lake vigilantly. Although the ships of King Zhao's army had been divided and surrounded by the Jinyi Guards, it was easy to block open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows.
Before escaping from danger, don't be careless at all.
Seeing Zhao Ying go away, Zhu Zhanji gritted his teeth with hatred. What he had just done was just to paralyze Zhao Ying and create an opportunity for Hu Hao to kill him. Who knew that Zhao Ying was so powerful that he couldn't keep him alive!
Being an enemy of such a master, even if he lives in the ninth level, he will have trouble sleeping and eating. Taisun thought bitterly, after he ascends the throne, he will be eliminated at all costs!
Seeing that the ships of King Zhao's army were all killed or fled in panic under the attack of Jin Yiwei, Zhu Zhanji no longer worried about his own safety. He turned his eyes towards the direction of the palace, and was horrified to find that thick smoke was rising there too!
Having been on the verge of life and death before, Zhu Zhanji couldn't worry about anything else, but now he discovered that the emperor had also been attacked!
"Go and save him!" Zhu Zhanji roared at the Jinyiwei ship heading towards him.
But those royal guards seemed to turn a deaf ear to His Highness Taisun's words, and just parked their boats around him in a defensive posture.
"Which one of you is responsible?!" Zhu Zhanji became furious. Most of his anger actually came from the grievances of being rounded up by Zhao Ying before.
"Your Highness, calm down," Dai Hua's ship also came over, and then he responded: "We have a limited number of people, and there are enemies everywhere on the shore. This is the safest place."
"What should the emperor do?!" Zhu Zhanji shouted angrily.
"This" Dai Hua hesitated and said, "The order we received is to protect His Highness the Grand Sun. I don't know anything else."
"Who gave you the order?!" Zhu Zhanji roared: "Where is Wang Xian, where is he?"
"My lord is still outside the palace." Dai Hua opened his eyes and told lies.
"Huh!" Zhu Zhanji snorted angrily, with a strong sense of foreboding. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidiann, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users
