The firelight reflected in his pupils, but Wang Xian's mind was filled with the last scene of the old monk before he left...
The old monk moved his body, revealing a dark hole under the futon. If Zhuang Jing knew that the old monk was sitting under his buttocks at the secret passage he couldn't find, he would probably spit out another mouthful of old blood...
"Master, let's go together?" Wang Xian asked, and the other monks also looked at Dao Yan begging.
"I'm eighty this year, and I've long been tired of living." Dao Yan said with a smile: "I just feel that a person as awesome as me must die an earth-shattering death. It's so easy to wait for the opportunity now, why don't you hurry up?
"Get out of here"
"Junior brother, please forgive me." A strict heart is a strict heart after all. Silently reciting a few rebirth mantras in the direction of Qingshou Temple woke up Wang Xian who was immersed in emotions and could not extricate himself. He said: "We have no time to remember."
"Yes, we don't have time to remember." Wang Xian nodded, stretched out his hand to wipe the wet corners of his eyes and said, "Although the old monk is tired of living, if we waste the opportunities he created with his life, he will probably end up on Huangquan Road.
Jumping on your feet."
"Yes." The monks originally looked down upon life and death. After hearing Wang Xian's words, the sadness in their hearts dissipated a lot. They all stood up and said, "If you mess up this time, we will look down on you."
"Don't worry, I'm a disciple of Dao Yan." Wang Xian rubbed his head in disgust, and he suddenly realized that this was the most appropriate way to bid farewell to the old monk.
"Target, Prince's Mansion, departure"
The monks filed out of the alley and came to the street. They had changed into common people's clothes before coming, and now they all put on their hats, which made them look less conspicuous.
In fact, it doesn't matter if it's eye-catching. The big explosion became the fuse that ignited chaos in the capital. The people who were already full of fear were so scared that they ran all over the streets. The traders didn't even care about their own business and fled for their lives.
Who cares what kind of gods they are?
There were also common people who panicked and rushed towards the monks, but they were bounced aside as if they were hitting an invisible wall. In this way, the monks protected Wang Xian and nimbly passed through the rapids like swimming fish.
The flow was turbulent and soon they arrived outside the Prince's Mansion.
Outside the Prince's Mansion, there were also officers and soldiers surrounding him, but they were not soldiers from the Jinyi Guards, but soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division. This was not because Zhuang Jing felt that the Prince was not as important as Wang Xian, but because he thought that the Prince had left the city, and the only people left in the Prince's Mansion were
Although the Crown Princess and Zhu Zhanji's younger brothers are also very important, they are not that important. Therefore, in the name of protecting the Crown Prince's Mansion, the troops from the Wucheng Army and Horse Division are only asked to guard this area first and wait.
Wang Xian won it and then talk about it.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Wucheng Military and Horse Division naturally saw the fire at Qingshou Temple. As they were busy with errands in the capital all day long, the officers and soldiers naturally knew that Qingshou Temple was there, and they also knew that Qingshou Temple was the old temple.
The monk's dojo. Seeing the fire, even a fool knew that the sky was about to change, and couldn't help but whisper to each other.
Seeing that people were distracted, the officers of the Military and Horse Division scolded their men and tried to calm them down. Their commander was negotiating, or in other words, confronting the guards of the East Palace. The people of the East Palace asked them to withdraw immediately, but the commander insisted.
They said that they wanted to protect the safety of the Prince's Mansion. The two sides were arguing fiercely when they saw a group of men dressed as civilians walking over quickly. Before the officers and soldiers of the Military and Horse Division could react, the group of people had already passed through the two layers of defense.
, attack directly at the third line of defense of the Soldiers and Horses Division, and also the last direction.
"Are you stupid? Stop them." The commander hurriedly ordered in a stern voice. At this time, the officers and soldiers also reacted and quickly drew out their weapons and stood in front of the group of people.
"Who dares to break into the Prince's Mansion?" At this time, most of the officers and soldiers of the Military and Horse Division thought they were protecting the Prince's Mansion.
"Get out of our way, we are the guards of the East Palace." A monk showed his identity as a guard of the East Palace. Wang Xian had a lot of these things, not only those from the East Palace, but also those from the Zhenfusi, the Imperial Guards, and the Imperial Guards. There was a dazzling array of them.
, everything you need.
"This..." Seeing the real master, the officers and soldiers of the Military and Horse Division immediately softened.
"Guards of the East Palace? Why are you so unfamiliar?" At this time, the crowd separated, and the commander came over under the protection of several subordinates, looking at the monks.
"Fake, right?" the deputy general beside him echoed.
"It's very possible that in this critical period, I can only aggrieve you all first." The commander's eyes flashed coldly, and he waved his hand: "Take it."
"Wait a minute, they are the guards of the East Palace." The guards of the Prince's Mansion suddenly recognized Wang Xian in the crowd.
When the officers and soldiers of the Military and Horse Division heard this, they thought that the guards in the palace were right, and now there would be no problem. But what they didn't expect was that the commander still insisted on ordering: "Take it down."
"Sir," the officers and soldiers were a little confused: "They seem to be really from the Prince's Mansion."
"If I say it's false, it's false." The commander said with a ferocious expression, "Are you going to disobey me?"
"I don't dare..." The military orders came thick and fast, so the officers and soldiers had no choice but to take the people first.
Seeing the soldiers from the Bingma Division surrounding them, the monks remained as calm as water without any fluctuation. At this time, Wang Xian smiled and said: "Which senior brother will capture this beast for me?"
"I'll come." Before he could finish his words, a monk rushed out. His speed was extremely fast, and his whole body turned into a line. He arrived in front of the commander in one breath. Before the guards around him could stop him, the commander
He felt like his breathing was suffocated, his neck felt like it was bound by an iron band, and he couldn't move.
Seeing that the commander was held hostage as soon as they met, the guards only dared to shout and scream, but did not dare to move. The monk held the commander's neck like a chicken, and stood there with a free expression.
There, Chun Lei said:
"Step aside"
This sound, which contained the true meaning of the lion's roar, made the officers and soldiers of the Army and Horse Division feel dizzy and a little distracted for a moment. In addition, the commander was still in his hands, so he just stared blankly at Wang Xian and his party, giving...
Then he entered the Prince's Mansion.
The guards of the Prince's Palace were already in despair, but when they saw Wang Xian appear, they were so excited that they hurriedly welcomed them in. Wang Xian asked the monk to throw the commander to the guards of the East Palace, and said with a smile: "If they dare to mess around, they will be chopped into pieces."
He has one finger."
"If you dare to mess around again, just chop it off again." The guards were in a good mood at the moment and said with a smile.
"Exactly." Wang Xian smiled and nodded to the guards, then entered the mansion with the monks.
The prince's residence was also in chaos. A disaster was imminent. If the eunuchs and maids did not take their master seriously, they would flee for their own lives first. Some even took the opportunity to steal.
However, Wang Xian and the others did not have time to pay attention to these nonsense, and still walked in like a school of fish. Wang Xian smiled and said: "Senior Brother Xinxuan's kung fu is so powerful, it is really eye-opening."
"Junior brother, that's ridiculous. I'm just a chopping wood and lighting fires. My martial arts skills are the lowest among my brothers." Xinxuan was very humble. However, none of the monks objected, and they obviously agreed with what he said.
"Uh..." Wang Xian swallowed and spat, "Are you all experts in love?"
"Practice martial arts for the purpose of cultivation." Xinci explained to him with a smile: "If you just chant sutras and meditate, your body will collapse, so how can you practice?"
Only then did Wang Xian understand what kind of wealth the old monk had left for him. Damn, with the protection of such a group of perverted masters, as long as he did not fall into the encirclement and suppression by the army, no one could hurt him even a hair.
While they were talking, Zhu Zhan, dressed in military uniform, ran over from the opposite side. When he saw that Wang Xian was really here, Zhu Zhan cheered and rushed towards him, but he was confused and missed.
"There is no need to stop this." Wang Xian couldn't help but smile bitterly. The monks let Zhu Zhan pass.
Zhu Zhan hugged Wang Xian. The young man cried and laughed and said incoherently: "Great, second brother, you are here, and they said you are dead. I said you won't, you won't leave us alone."
"
Wang Xian lifted Zhu Zhan away and cursed with a smile: "The snot is all over my body."
Zhu Zhan smiled sheepishly, then remembered the business and whispered: "My father is still in the house."
In the East Palace bedroom, knowing that the mansion was surrounded by officers and soldiers, Crown Princess Zhang was a little panicked. After the explosion, Mrs. Zhang became completely restless and kept mumbling: "Husband, where are those soldiers outside?"
Coming?"
"Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division." The prince was much calmer. Experience is the most precious wealth. Although Zhu Gaoxu looks fat and cowardly, in fact, he spent most of his life in thrilling situations. He entered the capital as a hostage when he was young.
He escaped thousands of miles back to Beijing from the butcher's knife of Emperor Jianwen. Immediately following the defense of Beijing, he led the soldiers and civilians of the capital to withstand the fierce attack of Li Jinglong's hundreds of thousands of troops. In the following years, although he seemed to be far away from the sword, he had to face the
A more dangerous battle to seize the throne. This battle lasted for a long time, and the damage caused to both sides had long exceeded the trauma caused by the Battle of Jingnan. He didn't know how the King of Han felt, anyway, the day of showdown finally came, although in his heart
I have mixed feelings at first, but the strongest one is the feeling of relief
Finally, finally, this disgraceful and long battle can be brought to an end. No matter whether you win or lose in the end, it is a relief. So there is a smile on the prince's face, not excited, but relaxed.
"Husband, you can still laugh." Seeing that he was still laughing, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help complaining.
"It's better to laugh than to cry." Zhu Gaochi said with a smile while reading the book, "Just don't worry."
"So, your husband has already made arrangements?" Ms. Zhang said with a sigh of relief: "What did I say? Why did you suddenly stop going to the military parade?"
"Of course there are arrangements." Zhu Gaochi nodded.
"Then, what's the arrangement?" Mrs. Zhang usually abides by women's ethics and never asks about these men's affairs, but now that it's about the safety of her family, she can't help but ask.
"I don't know either." Zhu Gaochi shook his head in a very honest manner and said: "It was all arranged by Zhongde. He is an expert in this kind of thing, so I just follow the arrangements. For example, today, if he suddenly doesn't let me go, then I won't
Go, if he doesn’t tell you the reason, I won’t ask..."
