For a moment, the cannon was surrounded by people.
Cui Enshun pointed at the palace wall and introduced proudly: "You guys are optimistic that with one shot, the palace wall can be completely blown open. At that time, the palace can be taken down without any effort!"
The words were not spoken yet.
boom.
A huge fire appeared on the spot, followed by a huge roar.
The area around the cannon became a sea of flames.
The rebels not far away watched as Cui Mingyu, Cui Enshun, Gao Ming and others disappeared.
The rebels were leaderless and suddenly stopped attacking.
On the palace wall, the guards had not yet reacted to the death of King Rongliu.
The royal city, which was originally noisy and filled with loud shouts of killing, suddenly became quiet.
Guardsmen and rebels, you look at me and I look at you, with confused expressions on their faces.
…
far away.
in the dark.
Guishen slapped his thigh and said, "Zhengdao, you are so bad."
Xu Zhengdao smiled slightly: "If the young master were here, he would probably be even more ruthless!"
The ghost asked: "Now, let's borrow a knife to kill people. The person is gone and the knife is gone. What should we do?"
Xu Zhengdao thought for a while and said: "King Rongliu is dead, Cui Mingyu is also dead, and the royal city will probably be in chaos next. Let's find the princess first, hide out of the city, and wait and see what happens. It is best to profit from it."
The ghost nodded.
The two men immediately gathered twenty masters and took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the palace, looking for traces of Du Jinwei everywhere.
After a while, Xu Zhengdao, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
The ghost looked up curiously.
Not far away, down the long steps.
Crouching down was a figure they were familiar with, it was Du Jinwei, Princess of Jinyang.
Du Jinwei was half squatting on the ground. In front of her, lying a girl the same size as her, was Princess Jianwen of Goguryeo.
Princess Jianwen was left bloody and bloody.
Du Jinwei said unhappily: "You are an idiot. I asked you to go to the Tang Dynasty with your sister and you didn't go. You had to follow your father. Now it's okay. You can never go to Chang'an City again."
Just now, when the rebels attacked the palace, Princess Jianwen happened to be with King Rongliu.
Cui Enshun fired a cannon, killing King Rongliu and Princess Jianwen.
Xu Zhengdao and Guishen came over and were silent for a long time.
Xu Zhengdao then spoke: "Princess, King Rongliu is dead, and Cui Mingyu is also dead. Next, there will be chaos in the royal city. Please follow us out of the city now. When the rebellion is put down and King Rongliu's heirs inherit the throne,
We will come back after the overall situation is stable."
Du Jinwei stood up and shook her head in despair: "King Rongliu only has one child, Princess Jianwen, and no other heirs."
so……
King Rongliu has no queen.
Then, the royal power could only fall into the hands of several brothers of King Rongliu.
In this case, the situation will probably become more complicated.
Xu Zhengdao looked at Du Jinwei, then at Princess Jianwen lying on the ground, and suddenly asked: "Princess, may I ask if you and Princess Jianwen are familiar with each other?"
Du Jinwei said: "The two of us are like sisters."
Xu Zhengdao asked again: "I have heard people say that Princess Jianwen lives in seclusion and stays in the palace. Even the officials of Goguryeo, few people have seen her. Is this true or false?"
Du Jinwei nodded: "Princess Jianwen's sister has grown so big that she has only left the palace less than ten times."
Xu Zhengdao slapped his thigh and said happily: "I have a bold idea."
Um?
Guishen and Du Jinwei looked at him curiously at the same time.
Xu Zhengdao looked around and said: "Princess, the current chaos in the royal city is not a good thing for the Dream Group, and once the royal power falls into the hands of the other brothers of King Rongliu, they may not be at the mercy of our Dream Group.
I have an idea, that is, to ask the princess to pretend to be Princess Jianwen, and the two of us will lead the mighty army to help the princess ascend to the position of Queen of Goguryeo..."
Du Jinwei's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this.
She pondered for a moment and said: "My sister, Princess Jianwen, and I are sisters. Now that she is dead, I naturally can't bear to see the royal power of Goguryeo fall into the hands of others."
In fact, what she was thinking in her heart was: She has done all kinds of fun things in her life, but she has never been a queen.
Du Jinwei turned around and said, "Without further delay, let's go outside now."
The ghosts and gods immediately sent people to burn Princess Jianwen's body.
…
On the palace wall.
The guards looked confused.
Their leader is dead.
Their king also died.
The group is leaderless and no one knows what to do.
It seems impossible to surrender. The leader of the rebels below is also dead, and the rebels are now in a mess.
Just when everyone was panicking, they saw a group of people escorting a little girl up the city wall.
The girl is gorgeously dressed.
When the rebels saw them, someone suddenly shouted: "It's Princess Jianwen!"
"Princess Jianwen..."
The visitor is none other than Du Jinwei.
Du Jinwei had already changed into Princess Jianwen's clothes.
Xu Zhengdao and ghosts and gods guarded both sides.
Du Jinwei stepped forward and said loudly in Korean: "Fellow soldiers, the rebels have killed my father. Now, you must be loyal to me. Please obey General Xu's command and avenge King Rongliu."
"Revenge for King Rongliu!"
"Revenge for King Rongliu!"
The guards suddenly found the backbone and shouted one after another.
Xu Zhengdao suddenly became General Xu of Goguryeo.
In this chaotic time, no one asked how he came out.
Anyway, everyone believes in Princess Jianwen.
The palace guards immediately obeyed Xu Zhengdao's dispatch.
Xu Zhengdao led the guards and fought their way out of the city. Wherever they passed, the rebels turned and surrendered one after another.
…
at the same time.
The ghosts and gods led a mighty legion of eighty people to Cui's manor.
The ghost stood at the door of the manor, waved his hand, and said in a cold voice: "Kill, bloodbath Cui's manor, kill everyone except the women."
"kill!"
Since the Mighty Legion put down the Lu rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, their swords have been thirsty for a long time. Now that they have the opportunity to go on a killing spree, everyone is excited and gearing up.
Teams one by one launched attacks from all sides of Cui's champion.
Cui's dead soldiers had already followed Cui Mingyu to attack the palace, and only some guards were left behind.
These guards, under the slaughter of the mighty legions, fell like wheat.
When they reached the back of Cui's manor, the ghosts and gods' swords had already been broken.
At this moment, a soldier came to report: "General Guishen, we found a tunnel in the backyard of Cui's Manor."
typical?
The ghost chuckled: "I heard that Cui Mingyu has been the prime minister of Goguryeo for more than 20 years and is most greedy for money. This is probably where he hides good things. Let's go and have a look!"
Several people lit torches and walked into the tunnel.
The tunnel is very long and winding.
After walking for a long time, we finally reached the bottom.
It turned out to be an open space, in which boxes as tall as a person were stacked neatly.
"Open it!" the ghost ordered.
Wow.
One box after another was opened.
Suddenly, everyone including the ghosts and gods were stunned.
I saw that each box contained Kaiyuan Tongbao from the Tang Dynasty.
