Chapter 68 Palace Gate

Fell?

The sturdy young man blocking the city gate actually fell?

Qin Hu felt that his mind went blank for an instant, and everything seemed to have come to a standstill.

But the people around him did not stop because of this. The moment Zhou Hui fell, the patrolmen around Qin Hu swarmed up, trying to take advantage of the trap to enter the city gate. Zhou Hui, who fell on the ground, was also captured by the King of Jin'an County.

The people over there pulled them in, and at the same time, the bodies of the two followers who fell first were pushed over, the city gate was held up, and the two crossbows were aimed at the people who were rushing towards them.

A barrage of arrows flew in, many patrolmen fell down, and the troops surging forward suddenly began to retreat again.

"Son."

Qin Hu was still standing dumbly, and was pulled back by his followers to avoid the arrows shot by the Jin'an County King's men.

This tugging and staggering made Qin Hu come back to his senses, and the noise around him surged.

"Sir, those people are coming."

"Sir, the reinforcements from Fu Yin have arrived."

Qin Hu could hear the shouts and voices, and he kept looking at the city gate.

On the other side of the city gate, King Jin'an's people did not take the opportunity to open the city gate wide because of their retreat. Instead, they still used two corpses, one on the left and one on the right, to support the city gate, leaving a gap for the two people to stand, and they took turns to place them.

Set up a two-man crossbow formation to prevent the people here from approaching.

With the help coming from inside the city, the defense at the city gate became slightly chaotic.

"Walk."

Prince Jin'an said.

He had already mounted the horse, and Zhou Hui was also firmly supported on the horse. The two cloaks avoided the long arrows on his chest and tied him tightly in front of the King of Jin'an County of Jin'an.

"Your Highness, it is better to wait for the reinforcements from outside the city to arrive before entering the city." Mr. Gu said.

Although some help came from the city, for the huge capital city full of patrols and patrols, breaking in was like a mud cow entering the sea.

"I don't want to wait any longer." Prince Jin'an said.

"Then let others help him." Mr. Gu said anxiously.

"I can't draw a bow and arrow now, and I can't swing a heavy sword. It's best to protect him, so don't occupy other people's hands." Prince Jin'an said, looking at Eunuch Jing who was also on his horse, "Let's go."

Hearing this, Eunuch Jing responded, drew his saber, and urged his horse to leap forward.

The two people at the city gate got out of the way at the same time. After Jinggong jumped out, they also got on their horses and followed the Jin'an County Prince out, guarding the Jin'an County Prince from the front and left, and ran straight into the city.

The melee in front of the city gate became even more chaotic.

Seeing the descendants who were originally hiding at the city gate running out, the leader waved his sword in a series of cold lights, and the defenders who met him fell to the ground. They were shocked and collapsed.

"Young Master." He personally held down Qin Hu, and both of them ducked to avoid a sweeping sword light.

The men and horses crossed over, mixed with the helpers who came, and suddenly gathered into a more ferocious group, rolling towards the city.

"They're in!"

There was a shout in my ears.

He passed.

Qin Hu held a bow and arrow in his hand and looked at it.

He saw Zhou Hui on the horse.

He passed...

It was too fast, and it was blocked by others and could not be seen clearly.

I can't see him clearly...

He...how is he...

Zhou Hui!

"Master?"

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Qin Hu running away beside him, and then turned around to see Qin Hu getting on his horse and chasing after him into the city.

"Chase! Chase quickly!"

The personal attendant reacted and directed everyone to shout.

……………………………………………………

"Over there!"

Compared to the hustle and bustle outside, the palace was quite quiet, except for the occasional noise caused by a certain place.

Bright torches illuminated the surroundings of the palace, and groups of imperial soldiers with swords, guns, and crossbows poured in.

Everywhere he went there was no one.

"Where is it?"

"Obviously I just saw it."

"What a hell."

Everyone looked at each other, unable to hide their frustration.

Such a big living person, and a woman who had never been to the palace a few times, was able to escape the search of the guards who had been on duty in the palace for many years.

In order to strictly guard against assassins, there are no tall trees or rocks in the palace. Where can she hide?

It's really strange.

"Search again!" the leader of the forbidden army shouted, "unless she gets wings and flies out of the palace!"

The night inside the palace is darker than other places.

A figure flashed past in the night, then quickly returned.

Cheng Jiaoniang stood still, raised her hands to calculate the moment, and then looked up at the sky. The stars in the sky had faded and it was almost dawn.

Heaven and earth are just a feng shui array.

Mountains and rivers have their own directions, and human settlements have their own destiny.

The imperial palace is a place where Feng Shui is a masterpiece. Feng Shui has eyes, and the eyes are springs of life.

With thoughts in her mind, this action was completed in the blink of an eye, and then she raised her feet and ran in one direction.

The footsteps behind me were noisy, and the torches were brighter.

"...Nothing again!"

“…Look and look again!”

……………………………………………………

A group of forbidden troops rushed past outside the imperial city wall and spread out along the way. From a distance, it looked like they were coming and going in the same direction. It was obvious that the entire imperial city had been surrounded.

After listening to a subordinate's report, the Yin Zheng of the Jingzhao Mansion in front of Xuande Gate immediately turned around and walked quickly to the ministers gathered in the square.

"Master Qin." He shouted.

Minister Qin looked over from among several ministers.

"The imperial city has been surrounded." Fu Yin said, nodding to other ministers.

Fu Yin's status was not lower than that of Qin Shishang, but he was the first to greet him, and everyone present knew the meaning.

Fu Yin, who was once a member of Gao Lingbo's faction, has now become one of Qin Shidao's own.

I don’t know how Qin Shishuo persuaded him. The defense in the capital is controlled by two departments, one is the Imperial City Division and the other is Jing Zhaoyin. Originally, these two were in the hands of Gao Lingbo, so he acted unscrupulously. Now he has taken over

One makes today's events less dangerous.

Only these people have the confidence to risk their lives and come here at night.

"Thanks to Mr. Qin for deploying the defense in time." Several courtiers said one after another.

Minister Qin shook his head.

"There's nothing to be thankful for in this kind of thing." He sighed.

Fu Yin also sighed hurriedly. After all, he was once the person of Gao Lingbo, and he didn't have the guts to wait for everyone to compliment him.

"But in the end, we let the thief succeed." He said, unable to help but choke, "His Royal Highness doesn't know..."

As soon as this statement came out, the expressions of the people present became complicated.

"The Queen."

Qin Shizhong walked to the other side. The queen was sitting on the floor, no longer caring about her image, and she had no image. The queen's dress was also burned by the fire, her hair was messed up, and the remaining maids around her were injured.

I can't move it and I can't tidy it up for her.

Originally, Zhang Chun and others advised the Queen to go to the nearest government office to rest, but the Queen flatly refused.

"The Queen Mother, Emperor and Prince are in the hands of thieves, how can I rest?"

Hearing Shi Qin's words, the queen, who was holding the seal tightly, looked over.

"Empress, how is the prince doing now?" Qin Shijiao asked.

The queen looked sad.

"The Queen Mother's palace is controlled by the high-ranking thief Chen Thief. There is no way to know." She said, "According to the earliest news, the prince has been bleeding from all his orifices..."

Bleeding from all orifices!

That person is finished.

The courtiers who listened carefully felt relieved.

That's good, and they're left with a risk in vain.

If the prince had not died, it would be difficult to convict Gao Lingbo and Chen Shao.

"Such a thief." A courtier immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet and shouted, "Such a thief, you are harming my monarch!"

After saying this, he rushed to the city gate.

"I want to break open this city gate!"

As long as the play was performed, several courtiers hurriedly stopped him and tried to persuade him.

"The siege of the imperial city has been completed, and the city gate will be attacked immediately. Please be safe, my lord."

Amid the commotion, a sharp, high-pitched voice suddenly sounded.

"What, the prince's brother was harmed?"

A childish voice suddenly sounded.

Are there children among the visitors?

Everyone hurriedly looked around, but Qin Shidao had already taken the lead and walked aside.

A carriage came over there at some point, and someone got out of the carriage and came over, holding a child in his hand.

"Prince Yanping." Shi Qin saluted and shouted, "Why are you here?"

Prince Yanping!

The ministers present all felt their hearts skip a beat and looked at the person coming.

Due to the emperor's taboo on the royal family, these princes and county princes could not often come to Beijing. The officials present looked at him carefully for a long time before they recognized that this was indeed the prince of Yanping County who was the same year as the emperor.

"...Sir." Fu Yin rushed to speak and said to Qin Shi. He also explained to the courtiers present, "The Prince of Yanping County and the Grand Duke of Changtai came to Beijing yesterday evening. Because it was late, they did not enter.

The palace delivered the news and placed it in the government posthouse, waiting for the fate of the day to come to the palace to see him again."

For the prince's wedding, the imperial family members from out of town were allowed to enter the capital, and the time was indeed counting for it to arrive.

However, it was a bit too coincidental that the Prince of Yanping County arrived, and he also brought his son...

"There is a lot of commotion on the street, and I am really uneasy." Prince Yanping said, approaching, and the torch in front of the palace gate illuminated his description.

If Zhou Hui were here at this moment, he should be able to recognize the Yanping County Prince. However, he was now wearing luxurious clothes and a jade crown. He was a middle-aged man with beautiful temples, not the unshaven man wearing a hat and wearing commoner clothes.

The humble coachman.

"Is there a big commotion on the street?" Fu Yin took the words, with a somewhat apologetic look on his face, "Don't worry, Prince, I have ordered the whole city to be under martial law. There will be no rebels and rebels making trouble on the street. They must be patrolling and setting up defenses."

It disturbed the prince."

They asked and answered questions fluently, and the ministers around them listened clearly and their hearts became clear.

The Prince of Yanping County came to the capital. The Qin family's arrangements and the city's defenses have been properly arranged. No one else will come in again. All they need to do now is to deal with the two thieves in the imperial city.

The two fireworks that lit up at the city gate just now were probably their arrangement.

I originally thought that Gao Lingbo was clever and won over Chen Shao, but I didn't expect that the situation changed drastically in a sudden change.

When the prince died, the queen rushed out at night to testify that Gao Lingbo and Chen Shao were guilty of treason and murdering the emperor's heir.

The prince died, the emperor was still seriously ill, and the country could not live without a king for a day. The issue of the emperor's heir was once again at hand, but this time there was no other choice but adoption.

No wonder the Qin family let Zhang Chun take the lead in welcoming the Queen this time.

In this way, the Queen was grateful to Zhang Chunye and rushed to help her. Zhang Chun must have followed Zhang Chun's advice, and Zhang Chun was originally an adoptive person, so most of the courtiers present now were also the courtiers who followed Zhang Chun's proposal of adoption.

In order to appease people's hearts, stabilize the court situation, and gain status in the heart of the new king, instead of waiting for all the clans to arrive before discussing the selection, why not just choose the son of Prince Yanping who participated in this major palace incident?

.

At least with this one-night stand, the monarch and his ministers will get along well.

The candidate for adoption could not be clearer.

Although the situation inside the palace is still unknown, everyone already knows how to arrange the next events.

This is the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind. Everything that Gao Lingbo had tried so hard to arrange will now become evidence of the wolf's ambition, and it is the Qin family that finally succeeds.

No, it cannot be said that it is the Qin family. The people present are all meritorious. They would not be able to afford it early if there is no profit. They seek wealth and honor in danger. Now everyone has achieved it.

The conversation between Prince Yanping and the governor only lasted a few words, and the thoughts that flashed through everyone's minds only lasted a moment.

Prince Yanping had already taken his son and walked quickly towards the queen.

"Your Majesty," he called with a choked voice, and he paid homage from a distance.

The clever Duke also knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

"The empress has suffered."

The Queen stood up with a complicated look on her face.

Well, since they are here, no one else will come. At this moment, one clan is enough. Those who have arranged this matter carefully will not let extra people appear.

However, things in the world are uncertain.

She is already here, so will he still be far away?

Are they blocked out like this?

The scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes turned to the queen, waiting for her to say a word, a very ordinary word for the occasion, but she just couldn't speak for a long time.

Prince Yanping felt that his body was a little stiff.

"Prince, your Majesty has just suffered..." Fu Yin suddenly said, taking a step forward.

It would be nice if someone could smooth things over. It is normal for the empress to be frightened and unable to speak.

Prince Yanping breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again.

It was at this time that the sound of horse hooves came.

Getting closer and closer, getting bigger and bigger, everyone seems to be able to feel the trembling of the ground, like thousands of troops approaching.

This is……

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and looked towards Yu Street. Prince Yanping also stood up straight and turned his head.

The torch was bright, and a group of soldiers and horses with bright armor appeared in everyone's sight.

"It's the garrison!" someone blurted out.

The expressions of Fu Yin and Qin Shiyan changed.

The garrison was actually mobilized!

How could the garrison outside the capital be mobilized?

The soldiers and horses approached and slowly divided into two columns, allowing the people walking in them to be exposed.

Seeing the people inside, everyone couldn't help but be shocked again.

"Prince Jin'an, please help me!"

Before everyone could recover, a male voice suddenly shouted, and at the same time, people quickly walked out and saluted those who approached.

It’s Zhang Chun again!

Wrong, wrong, wrong, the Qin family did not win over Zhang Chun. Everyone is an adoptive sect, but the adoptive sect also has its own sect. The Qin family’s sect and Zhang Chun’s sect are not the same sect. They are just cooperating.

Take, or take advantage of each other?

Gao Lingbo and Chen Shao no longer have anything to fear, so it’s time for them to make their own choices.

It’s such a mess, what should they do? Which faction should they choose?

While he was hesitating, the queen also raised her feet and ran over quickly.

"Jin'an." She shouted with choked sobs, "Hurry and help!"

There will be fewer people who hesitate.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin'an County, come to the rescue quickly." Scattered voices echoed in front of the palace gate.

But there were still some people who looked a little hesitant and unhappy.

Rescue him? He led the garrison into the capital in the middle of the night. He said he wanted to rescue him, but it could also be said that he had bad intentions. He couldn't be compared to the gentle and mellow and caring Prince Yanping here who could soothe people's hearts.

Prince Jin'an was still holding Zhou Hui in front of him. He stretched out his hand to support Zhou Hui's shoulders. He didn't look at anyone present, but looked at the tall and thick Xuandemen with a dull expression.

"The Queen Mother, the Emperor and the Crown Prince have been killed by traitors, and I am here to save him." He said slowly, raising his hand and then slowly lowering it, "Attack the city!"

Siege?

What's the meaning?

Everyone was stunned again.

As these words were spoken, the large number of people following them made a commotion, as if something was being pushed out. Before the ministers could see clearly, they heard a bang, a flash of fire in front of their eyes, and a loud bang in their ears.

The sound was deafening, and the ground beneath my feet shook violently.

Black smoke and fire erupted from the thick Xuande Gate.

My dear mother!

Almost all the courtiers present collapsed immediately.

This is too fierce! Don’t you say a word?

Before the sound stopped, there was another booming sound that shook the sky.

"Prince Jin'an, please help me! Prince Jin'an, please help me!"

As the sound fell, shouts and shouts rose in front of the door.

Amidst the roaring sound, Qin Shizhang, who was still standing firm despite being shaken, turned pale gradually, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Prince Jin'an.

"Where's Thirteen?"

His lips moved twice and he murmured.

Where is thirteen? Where is his thirteen?
