Chapter 87 87

Zichen Hall.

“Your Majesty…I still think this is not good. Tongguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, it is too risky for you to defend yourself.” Shi Buquan persuaded him in disapproval.

“This is the first time that I have paved the road for Cang’er, and I must protect her completely. If there is an accident in my departure, she will have to walk on her own in the future.”

While speaking, Zhang Qing flashed into the room and knelt in front of Si Hongye.

“Your Majesty, the Chen family, the Wang family, the Li family and the fourteen ministers have all assembled. They will enter from the east gate and then take the Ziyang Palace directly.”

“Well, everything is going according to plan, remember, you must protect my wife!”

“The minister obeys the order!”

“Go.”

After Zhang Qing left, Shi Buquan couldn’t help but persuade him. “Your Majesty, Tongguan is guarded by General Zheng, so please don’t go.”

Si Hongye shook his head.

“Now that I am a person who is “on the verge of death”, I naturally want to clean up all possible crises before I board the treasure for the princess.” She looked at Shi Buquan and said firmly,

“I have known for a long time that Si Honglie’s remnants have hidden things in the palace. After all, Si Honglie has been operating in the former palace for many years, and he even holds the nickname of “virtuous king”. It is normal for various forces in the palace. This is also true The only chance to identify the loyal and traitor and sweep away the remnants of the traitor, although it is dangerous, but I have a general idea of ​​the hidden lines behind the ministers, and I have arranged it properly. With you guarding my wife, I feel more at ease.”

“Even the Minister of Internal Affairs has leftovers, and this minister is worried about you… In case you are found out on your way to Tongguan, then…” The consequences are unimaginable. Now, how many people want your life?

Si Hongye shook his hand, indicating that if the teacher is not complete, don’t say more.

“The Huang Gongjian has already ordered them to be killed. Besides, even if there is an accident, it will not be an accident. Anyway, this time, I want to take advantage of the “death” to push Cang’er directly to the throne.”

“His Majesty……”

“Be careful, until the end, they will never show their secret hands. Now these people are putting their bets on you, and in order not to let the previous efforts go to waste, they will definitely use all the secret lines. Those on the bright side, you have to help the concubine to pay attention to how many people in the palace are involved. The Chen family and the Li family have big problems and must not be reused. That Zhang Bingyu, wait for the concubine to inherit the throne. After that, let him ‘die of illness’.”

“Yes.”

“Zhang Qing is a pure sword of heaven. After the palace was purged, the defending force must be weak. We are going to let her and Gao Bin rebuild the defending army for the maid, and the maid just re-appoints a reliable person. In this way, The concubine can rest under the couch. If Zhang Qing has any changes in the future, you can take this seal she gave me and put her in prison directly.”

“Yes.”

“Mrs. Rongguo’s mansion is the home of the aunt’s aunt. The fact that the party members have been cut off will not be a good thing in the court in the future. When I put her under house arrest, I even cried bitterly and demanded that the foundation of Fengguo be protected first. She is only five points loyal, and she has also spoken up for the concubine before. She has been promised by me to become a minister of the country. Although she is powerful, she is still available. When tonight is over, you will let the concubine be gracious to her. She is Feng Guo’s humerus minister, the war situation in the West is undecided, and she has to rely on her to stabilize the government.”

Si Hongye’s exhortation as if he was asking for an orphan made Shi Buquan feel depressed for a while. This is obviously a chess move that the emperor and himself have planned for a long time, but the emperor finally put himself in the gate of the country? ! An ominous feeling made her body tremble.

Your Majesty, this seems to be… deliberately going up to die.

“I want you to promise me, you, Shi Buquan, will always be loyal to the new emperor.”

Not all teachers were drawn out by the emperor from the “loyalty” to Si Hongye’s team. Tomorrow night is the most critical night. As long as tomorrow night is over, all the ghosts and ghosts in and outside the palace will jump out.

She really couldn’t stay here any longer, and upon the emperor’s order, she got up and went to the secret door.

After tomorrow night, if the concubine resisted the overall situation according to the emperor’s thoughts and cleaned up the many hidden piles in the palace, then the emperor would hand over the throne to her, and the emperor’s painstaking efforts would not be in vain, and he would not be too worried.

 …

The three emperors of the previous dynasty really colluded with Nanjiang to invade the border of Feng Kingdom.

The eldest princess’s fake servant is really threatening the palace, and the four emperors’ fake servants are really usurping the throne!

When the time passed, the east gate outside the east palace was quietly opened, and a large group of people entered the palace silently. These people are all ministers who support the eldest princess, and most of them are from aristocratic families with private soldiers. These people gathered together, and soon they became a mighty team, heading towards the direction of the East Palace Princess Hall.

“Stop! Someone broke into the palace! Someone broke into the palace, come here!”

“Kill the past! Don’t let people leave the palace!”

“But… there are many of them…”

Madam Jin glared at the speaker.

“There are a lot of them, don’t we have fewer people? The Central Army is not here, what are you afraid of!”

According to the news from Xiangguo, there are at least two days before the Chinese army can reach the capital. By then, the boat will be done, and the first princess has already succeeded to the throne!

Just like Si Hongmao led people all the way to the direction of Ziyang Palace, many people resisted due diligence, but there were also many who seemed to resist desperately, but in fact quickly gave up resistance and made way for the road.

Countless palace guards and palace attendants were disturbed on the road, and most of them ran in a hurry, lest they see that they should be silenced. There were also several palace guards who came out and yelled at the “rogue thieves”, but they were all **** and thrown aside by Si Hongmao.

The road from Ziyang Hall to Zichen Hall was chaotic, but strangely, there were not too many people blocking it, and even the palace maids and guards meant to watch from the sidelines.

Si Hongmao became more and more proud as he walked. In my heart, I even praised my mother-in-law for being an expert, and no one came out to stop such a big movement. Even the matriarch of the East Palace was controlled by their people early, and not even a fly could fly out at this moment.

“Your Highness, Your Highness, a large group of men and horses appeared outside the palace, saying that you are going to force the palace, come to escort!” A soldier covered in blood rushed from the direction of the East Palace, and was caught by Si Hongmao three steps away. His subordinates stopped him and knelt on the ground anxiously to report.

“Can you tell where they are from?”

“It is also the armor of each battalion, but no one knows who the leader is!”

“How many people are there?”

“About three thousand. They slashed and killed our people with the night guard in the palace, and shouted the slogan of ‘King Diligently escort’, the situation became more and more chaotic, and now the situation has become unstoppable. Everyone in the palace Run and tell each other, say…”

Si Hongmao’s face was full of blue veins, and he gritted his teeth and asked,

“What did you say?”

“It is said that His Highness intends to kill the concubine to kill the monarch to seize the throne, and they want to be on the side of the monarch.”

“Confuse!

“His Royal Highness, these people are combined with the guards in the palace, and the number is dominant. What should we do now?”

An official next to Si Hongmao said in a low voice, “It’s better to go to the Zichen Palace first, and then talk about it when it’s done.”

What happened, it is self-evident.

Si Hongmao’s heart was in a panic. She didn’t know where the “loyal minister” got the news in advance, and actually learned that she was pretending to be sick and really trying to force the palace? !

Now the layout has become chaotic, she is also difficult to ride a tiger, and she doesn’t even know which side of the third party is the character!

It will never be the Chinese army, and the Chinese army will not have only 3,000 people. No one will recognize the people in the Chinese army led by Shi Buquan.

There is no family in Beijing that can mobilize more than 3,000 people to enter the palace without a sound, unless many families come together…

Could it be that everyone in the city knew that she was going to force the palace today?

What exactly is going on? !

Yes, go to the Queen Mother first! No matter where the “loyal ministers” come to **** them, they just need to hold back the mother emperor and order them to retire.

Just go to the Queen Mother…

Si Hongmao wanted to “understand” and immediately strode forward. The officials behind her put their hearts into their stomachs, and hurriedly instructed the person who reported the letter to be sure to hold back the palace guards and the unidentified troops, and hurriedly followed the eldest princess to the emperor’s palace, Zichen Hall.

Su Wei, who fought hard against the queen’s horse along the way, left her life behind. Su Wei, who begged for mercy, retreated, and escaped, was hacked to death by the queen’s personal guards, as well as an inexplicable palace guard who came to “defection”. Always cut clean.

I don’t know how many of them are real spies, and how many are just afraid of dying and stand in the team first, but the eldest princess’s personal guards are nominally led by the eldest princess, but in fact they have been ordered by the emperor, and they have the slightest bit of identity as a traitor. The palace staff can start directly.

For a time, the palace became a sea of ​​blood, and the palace servants who saw it avoided one after another, and no one dared to provoke the eldest princess.

Seeing her so kind on weekdays, it turned out to be fake!

Commanding people to kill people is like a Rakshasa!

Si Hongmao’s men were only halfway there when an unknown army from the other side caught up.

Just like what the person who reported the news said, the people who came were wearing the armor of each battalion, well-equipped, and even had a terrifying weapon such as the “God Machine Crossbow” in their hands. In one encounter, the eldest princess’s people would die by hundreds. guard.

“Protect the Queen!”

“It’s the God Machine Crossbow! The Central Army! The Central Army is here!”

“It can’t be the Chinese Army!” Si Hongmao gritted his teeth. “The Chinese army has just passed Yizhou. It is the rebel group of the three emperors of the previous dynasty who got the magic crossbow.”

“The remnants of the three emperors of the previous dynasty?”

“Si Honglie, the daughter of the three emperors of the previous dynasty, once got a batch of divine machine crossbows, but then she failed and took away those divine machine crossbows. The Chinese army will not be so stupid, shoot me with divine machine crossbows, the whole army will be Are you waiting to be executed by the Nine Clan?”

Si Hongmao felt that they were the remnants of Si Honglie, but Su Wei, who was not aware of the situation in the palace, thought that the Chinese army had returned to **** them.

The Divine Crossbow is the most elite weapon of the Feng Kingdom. It can fire ten arrows in a row, reloads quickly, and is powerful. It has always been the most coveted weapon by the soldiers of the Feng Kingdom. Except for the most elite troops of the frontier army, all of them are equipped with the Chinese army. Elite.

Therefore, as soon as these people saw the Divine Machine Crossbow, they spontaneously joined together to resist the forces of the First Princess “forcing the palace”.

The first princess Si Hongmao and the fourth princess Si Hong did not know that these people brought by Mrs. Xiangguo actually had such a role. Wang Tai’s subordinates were originally the frontier troops of the Feng Kingdom. They were familiar with the rules of the army and had their own organization. There was no doubt that they pretended to be the central army to protect the emperor.

Poor Si Hongmao and the fourth princess only now feel that someone colluded with Si Honglie’s remnants and entered the palace, but the situation is changing so fast that they have no way to make them react. They can only follow behind the guards to the Zichen Palace. Back off, thinking about what went wrong.

It is impossible for Si Honglie’s remnants to enter the palace so easily, unless there is an inner responder in the palace. Or someone revealed the news that the emperor “is about to die”, and let them do it first.

But Si Honglie’s remnants are not the same as their princesses fighting for power. They want to subvert the regime, and it is impossible for them to leave a living room for the palace. And the court ministers are not dead, could it be that Si Honglie’s remnants will kill the emperor’s family cleanly?

Who did the introspection? Huang Gongjian? Li Xiangguo?

Being able to dismantle so many people into pieces and hide them in the capital, and dispatching so many weapons, there must be someone in the capital who supports them, and there are still quite a few of them.

These people must have been staring at the palace for a long time.

When the eldest princess ran to the Zichen Hall in embarrassment, there were only less than a hundred guards left. The situation of the fourth princess is not much better than that of the first princess, and her body is already scarred.

The power of the divine machine crossbow salvo is so great that it can be called a killer. The first princess Si Hongmao and the fourth princess Si Hong were almost blocked by their own guards with a human wall before they fled to the Zichen Hall.

The Yulin Army hiding in the shadow of the Zichen Hall was instructed. Seeing that the eldest princess and the fourth princess were so embarrassed, they were chased and killed by a large number of troops and the guards behind them.

In fact, Shi Buquan had secretly returned to Beijing with a 100,000-member army seven days ago, and dispersed all the troops and distributed them in various important places, while waiting to launch the final siege to destroy all the secret forces of all parties, and the people were stationed there. He was protecting Si Hongcang in the courtyard of the Shifu, while waiting for news from the palace.

There were even more than 3,000 elite Yulin troops hidden in the palace, all of which were placed in the palace by Si Hongye before he left, waiting for the Gyeonggi division who could be mobilized after the incident to assist the concubine to appease the palace change.

“What? Only a few dozen of the thousand personal guards around the emperor were killed by Su Wei, and now they are being forced into the palace by the eldest princess and the fourth princess at the same time?! It’s not that only the eldest princess is possible… How did you tell me now! ”

Si Hongcang almost couldn’t lift it up in one breath, clenched his fists, and murmured, “I knew this was not good, this would not work, there are too many variables, the mother emperor is betting on her own life!”

Yes, Your Majesty, for the sake of Your Majesty Your Highness, really risked her own life!

Shi Buquan said with emotion, “Don’t worry, madam, there is a tunnel here that leads directly to the Zichen Hall, the cavalry battalion of the Central Army has long been placed in every secret place in the capital, and 30,000 soldiers are now hidden in the tunnel. , “Your Majesty” is foolproof, and so are you.”

“I know that tunnel, but I didn’t expect that three thousand soldiers could be accommodated there?!”

“Yes.”

Si Hongcang said in the direction of the palace, “Let’s go! Let’s go and protect the Empress! Although the Empress is pretending to be seriously ill, it would not be good if they really force the palace to fail, and they will kill the Empress in a frenzy. It’s gone!”

After Shi Buquan heard Si Hongcang’s words, he couldn’t help but be stunned! The emperor’s original intention was to let all the dust settle, and only after she returned to the palace with the concubine to clean up, she would inherit the lineage.

Now… the newly released princess now wants to accompany her to the rescue of the Qin Wang? !

Shi Buquan knew very well that in the Zichen Hall of the emperor’s bedroom was a hidden guard from a white family named Bai Xiao, who pretended to be a critically ill fake emperor. So she knew that someone was forcing the palace tonight, so she wouldn’t send troops to rescue her. Because she has a more important task, she must achieve her mission with absolute victory!

“But…..”

“No but! I know that you have a 100,000-strong Chinese army in your hands now, and the eldest princess and the fourth princess together should have less than 10,000 troops. We have more than enough to deal with them!”

“…..Yes!”

“By the way, the third princess… What about Si Hongji?”

“Your Majesty has placed the third princess in the Zhang family. Your Majesty has left a confidant to protect her, and no one will think that the third princess is in the Zhang family.”

“As long as she’s not in danger. Let’s go!”

“Yes.”
