MTL - Emperor’s Conquest-Chapter 28 Palace change
A moment ago, I was still in an infinitely gentle town, and in a blink of an eye, such as a fallen ice cellar.
Just two days ago, the imperial doctor said that the emperor could at least survive this winter.
Even though he was ill and in control, he was still the 95th Supreme of Heaven. As long as the emperor lives for a day, the forces of all parties still maintain a delicate balance, and no one dares to act lightly.
No one had expected that, just on the night of my birthday, the feast drank, and the joy of Shengping had not yet dissipated, but the emperor suddenly died.
Xiao Xuan immediately ordered a ban on guarding China, strictly guarding the East Palace, closing the gates of the palace, and prohibiting anyone from entering and exiting the palace. He also imprisoned the guards of the emperor and the Taiji Hospital, and closely guarded them. The 100,000 troops in the Beijing suburbs guarded the four gates of Beijing and stood by Into the city. I hurriedly dressed and dressed, and my whole body froze for a while, before turning black, I almost fell.
Xiao Yan helped me, "Ama!"
"I'm okay ..." I barely stood still, only my chest swelled, my eyes darkened.
"You stay in the house." He forced me to lie back on the couch, and said in a deep voice, "I will go to the palace immediately and let you know as soon as I have news."
He has been put on a battle armor, equipped with a sabre, and exudes sacrifice throughout his body. When I touched this cold iron armor, I was even more frightened. I trembled, "If my father moves, you ..."
Xiao Yuan touched my gaze, and the tenderness of his eyes flashed away. Only Yu Fengrui was murderous. "The situation is unknown at the moment, I don't want anyone to rush into it!"
I looked at him sadly, biting my lower lip hard, and couldn't say a word of pleading. His eyes lingered on my face for a long time, unpredictable. These four eyes were relatively instantaneous, each suffering from their own heart, as long as eternity.
After all, he turned around and strode out the door without looking back.
Looking at the back of him stunned away, I leaned weakly at the door, smiled silently, and broke my heart.
However, there is no time for me to be sad.
I called Pang Gui, and ordered him to immediately take people to the town government and investigate the situation in central Beijing.
Behind the emperor's violent puppet, if his father really did, he would have to wait for the moment, and he would inevitably have a deadly fight with Xiao Yan.
Is it the father, really he can't wait to replace it? I didn't want to believe it, but I didn't dare to easily deny this terrible idea ... my heart twitched and cold sweat leaked out, and my heart seemed to be split in half.
On one side, blood is thicker than water, and half is life and death. Which side is more painful, I have no idea.
However, a moment later, Pang Guifei Pegasus reported that the left prince had led the banned soldiers into the palace, and all the soldiers in central Beijing had to be guarded by heavy soldiers. Hu Guanglie had led a 3000 iron ride to the town government.
My body fluttered, and I fell into the chair, my ears buzzing, as if passed by a sharp blade.
Had known this day, but unexpectedly came so fast.
In fact, there is no difference between morning and evening. After all, it still has to come.
I slowly got up and said to Pang Gui, "Prepare your car and follow me into the palace."
From a distance, you can see the heavily-lined troops outside the palace gate, surrounding the entire imperial city as iron barrels.
The unextinguished fire reflected the dawn of the sky, which illuminated the sword armor. The main gate to the east of Miyagi has been controlled by Xiao Yan, and the south gate and the west gate are still in the hands of his father. Swords were stretched out. No one dared to take a step first, for fear of a little carelessness, the imperial city immediately became a sea of blood.
The car drove straight in until it was stopped outside the palace gate.
Song Huai'en, wearing dark iron heavy armor, stood in front of the car with his sword, his face was frosty, "Please stop the princess."
"How is the situation in the palace?" I asked him calmly.
He hesitated for a moment, Shen said, "Zuo Zuo rushed to the East Palace first, confiscated the prince, and was confronting Wang Ye."
"Is the left hand really moving my hand?" My voice was weak, and my palms oozed cold sweat.
Song Huai'en looked up at me, "I don't know, but Zuo Xiang is indeed one step ahead of Wang Ye."
I bit my lip, suppressing the pain in my heart, "Where is the queen now?"
"In the Qianyuan Hall." Song Huaien said in a deep voice, "The Qianyuan Hall is also surrounded by the left phase, and the situation in the hall is unknown."
"Qianyuan Hall ..." I looked down and groaned, thousands of chaotic thoughts gradually gathered together, like a thin invisible thread, stringing all kinds of people together, the direction far away from the other end gradually opened.
I raised my eyes and looked forward, smiled at Song Huaien, and slowly said, "Please make way."
Song Huaien took a step forward, "No!"
"Why not?" I looked at him coldly. "At the moment, only I can step into the Qianyuan Hall."
"You can't be in danger by yourself!" He grabbed the stables and stood in front of my car. "Even if the princess runs over my body, she won't step into the palace door today!"
I smiled lightly, "Wayne, I won't step on your corpse, but if someone happens to the left or the king today, you will take my corpse back."
He looked up arrogantly, and was always looking at me under the shock.
I flipped my wrists and pulled out the short sword at the bottom of my sleeve.
Song Huai'en was forced by my eyes to step away step by step, but still held the stables in his hands and refused to let go.
I turned to look at the palace door, no longer looked at him, coldly ordered to drive.
The mule car moved forward slowly, Song Huaien grasped the reins tightly, and went along with them, his eyes went straight through the curtain, and he did not leave me for a moment. I couldn't bear the shock in my heart. I fell across the curtain and whispered, "After all, I'm still a king, and there is no danger to my life ... I understand your heart, let go!"
Song Huai-en finally let go of the reins, stood on the side of the road, and watched the car drive into the palace gate.
The palace is in chaos, and even the arrangement for the emperor's grief has not been completed. The housemaids hide and flee, and the panic palace people everywhere can be seen everywhere. The swaying scene of the mountain rain coming from the wind.
His father and Xiao Yan's soldiers and horses took control of the halls of each place, and they could not stand up. There were soldiers on standby all over the place.
The sky was clear, but the towering Qianyuan Hall was still shrouded in cloud and mist, and it was pressing.
I don't know what the truth is in the majestic hall, but there must be something wrong and there must be something wrong.
Why was his father so stupid, and he was so embarrassed that he suddenly took the trouble? When it comes to power, deployment, and prestige, he has the upper hand and keeps Xiao Yan steady; only the swordsmen meet and let go of his hands and feet, but he is by no means Xiao Xiao's opponent. This move is simply a dead end for both losers!
The Qianyuan Hall was lined with spears, soldiers in heavy armor lined up the hall, and the guards of the embargoes came out of the sheath. Anyone who wants to step forward will splatter on the spot.
Two embargo commanders led soldiers in front of the hall, but did not see his father.
I looked up to the gate of the Qianyuan Hall, straight in. The two commanders recognized me, and came forward to stop them. I swept them coldly, and kept walking, walking slowly forward. The two were frightened by my gaze and did not dare to forcefully stop them, but only blocked the servants behind me.
I stepped up and stepped on the jade steps of the Qianyuan Hall step by step.
With a bang, two bright long swords staggered and stood in front of them.
"Princess Yuzhang and Wangyi, please see the queen." I knelt down, and raised my eyebrows, waiting for the pass.
The coldness of Yujie penetrated into the skin, and after a long time, the sharp voice of the housekeeper came out from the hall, "The queen has a purpose, declare--"
The Gao Kuang Hall has been replaced with a plain white drapery. I do not know where the cold wind blows into the hall, and the white drapery is lifted up in the dark hall.
I walked through the main hall and passed over all the people who were vegetarians, who all looked like lifeless dolls, kneeling silently on the ground. The atmosphere that has been lingering in this emperor's dormitory for a long time has made me afraid since childhood. It seems that the ghosts of previous kings do not want to leave, still entangled in every corner of this temple, one eaves, one post, one case per case All revealed that Su Mu Senhan.
The yellow drape of the Ming Dynasty, behind the screen of the Jade Wall in Jiulong, is the dragon bed with carved dragons and phoenixes and the splendid golden wall.
The emperor was lying behind this heavy curtain, and became a cold body, a solemn temple, and would never smile at me or talk to me again.
Auntie Bai's aunt stood in front of the screen, and her long black hair fell behind her. She slowly turned her head back, her face paled to death, her eyes were faintly red, and at a glance she looked not like a living person, but a ray of ghosts.
"Ama is a good boy." She looked at me and smiled lightly. "Only you are willing to come with my aunt."
I looked at her, and slowly turned to the dragon bed.
"After people die, do they just love and hate annihilation, nothing?" The aunt also looked sideways, with a cold smile.
"The emperor has died, please ask my aunt to mourn." I looked at her face, but I could not find a trace of sadness on her face.
The aunt laughed, her voice was soft, her smile was cold and weird, "He's gone, he won't hate me anymore."
The chill floated from the soles of his feet and hit his whole body. I turned stiffly and walked towards the dragon bed.
"Stop." Aunt said, "Ama, where are you going?"
I didn't look back and said coldly, "I'll go and see the emperor and see ... my uncle."
The aunt said coldly, "The emperor has gone, so you don't need to bother."
I took a deep breath and clenched my palms. "How did the emperor go?"
"Do you want to know?" Aunt Xu Bu turned to me, staring at you with a smile, "or you already know?"
I stepped back abruptly, and I couldn't hold back my heartache, and blurted out, "Is it really you?"
She took a step closer and stared straight into my eyes. "What about me?"
I couldn't speak anymore. Looking at her smile, I suddenly felt sick. It seemed that a cold hand held the lungs severely. It was the aunt who killed the emperor, and it was she who laid the deadlock and cited her father. Killing each other with Xiao Yan ... It was dim in front of me, I just felt that the whole world was shaking and twisting. I leaned over to cover my mouth, and forbeared my heart to burst.
My aunt reached up and pulled my chin, forcing me to meet her fanatical gaze, "Did I do wrong? Do you want me to watch you take the throne of Longer? Wait for you to step me into a dead end?"
Cold sweat couldn't stop coming, I bit my lip and could not bear to speak.
The aunt hated and said, "I have buried my life for my family, and now I have nothing. There is only such a son, but you want to take away his throne! Even if Ronger never fights, it is also my son! Don't even think of him Take the throne! "
I finally took my breath away and shook her hand away, and trembled, "That's your uncle's brother! Father has always trusted you, defended you, and assisted Prince Edward for many years ... You even tried to deal with Xiao Xiao I also lie! "I was trembling all over, my anger and sorrow to the extreme. At this moment, my aunt admired looked like a ghost," You killed the emperor, marry Xiao Xiao, lie to his father to send troops to protect the prince, and lie to him Let ’s do it, wait for them to lose both, so that you can hit all the nets ... isn't it? "
I approached her, hoarse, and forced her to step back.
My aunt was pale and looked at me blankly, as if I could not believe that I would be so fierce to her.
"You betrayed your father and betrayed the Wangs." I stared at her eyes, saying it word by word.
"I didn't!" The aunt screamed, hurriedly pushed towards me, my uncle fell backwards, and his back came up against the cold Kowloon Jade screen.
The aunt laughed like crazy, and her voice was sharp and eager, "It was my brother who forced me! He didn't want to be angry, but he was restrained by Xiao Yi in his identity as a prince. He said that Long Er was a waste and could not help Wang He can't hold the river when he sits on the throne ... Longer is a cricket in his life, a hundred times bigger than his father's emperor! Longer is so stupid that he thought Xiao Yan would help him, this silly child ... he does n’t I know you are calculating him one by one! Only me, only the mother can protect you, silly child, you don't believe in mother ... "
She had a sullen expression before she gritted her teeth, and suddenly she was fierce, but in a blink of an eye she seemed to be the loving mother of the calf.
I leaned against the Yubi screen and tried to support it, but my body was cold for a while.
Mad, the aunt was really crazy, and was driven to the madness by this emperor's house.
Suddenly heard a loud noise, came from the direction of the East Palace, as if something collapsed, followed by the shouting of thousands of soldiers and horses, the tide flow through the Jiutian Palace.
It's the East Palace, it's the father and Xiao Yan ... they still do it after all.
I closed my eyes and let the sound of slashing strike in my ears for a long time, and the whole body seemed to be fossilized.
"Queen playing the queen!" A leader ran into the temple, and said, "King Yuzhang invaded the East Palace!"
"Really?" The aunt looked back out of the hall, and chuckled a cold smile. "It's been long enough, the soldiers and horses on the left are better than I expected ... if it's not your good husband, I'm afraid No one can hold your father down. "
With the embargoed army in his father's hands, where to stop King Yuzhang's iron ride and let them guard the East Palace, it is tantamount to hitting stones with eggs. At this time, the East Palace must have been bleeding, countless corpses.
I lifted my eyes and smiled, "Yes, since I started, my father is not Xiao Xiao's opponent. I'm afraid you are the same."
The aunt laughed aloud, "Stupid boy, do you really think your husband is a great hero?"
She raised her finger toward Donggong. "Good boy, look over there!"
Outside the hall, a thick firelight rose from the direction of the East Palace, and the blazing fire reddened the sky above the Nine Palace Palace.
"I'll let Longer stay in Donggong obediently, wait for him to pick up someone?" The aunt raised her head and smiled gracefully. "Donggong had already set up an ambush. Once the left soldier was defeated, King Yu Zhang entered the Donggong and ambushed. The three thousand armored soldiers in the secret way of the wall are just waiting for your great hero ... even if he is powerful against the thousands of troops, it will be difficult for me to shoot all arrows, and then the East Palace will be burned, and he will burn all the jade and stone! "
The woman in front of me was mad and mad, killing her husband, and provoking her relatives and brothers and nephews to kill each other. This is my aunt who has been admired since childhood and the queen of the world.
I looked straight at her, only to realize that I had never seen this face.
The fire was becoming more and more fierce. On the Qianyuan Hall, it seemed that he could hear the collapse of Liang Zhu, and the voice of the palace man exclaimed faintly. There is already a sea of swords and mountains on the outside, with blood flowing all over the place, but this high Qianyuan Hall is silent like death.
Guarding this hall is not only the embargoed garrison outside, but also the dead body on the dragon bed.
The emperor stabbed the heavens and the bones were not cold. Who dared to break into the dormitory at this time and offend Tianwei, the sin of the unscrupulous prince fell on his head. Xiao Yan's soldiers and horses approached step by step and surrounded the Qianyuan Hall as an iron bucket. Without Xiao Xiao's order, he did not dare to step further. The forbidden army guards retreated outside the hall, the sword came out of the sheath, the bow opened the string, and only after a call, the blood was washed away.
I smiled, "You have beaten my father and husband all at once, I wonder if you have thought about it, how to deal with me?"
She looked at me coldly, her eyes changed, Yin and compassion intertwined, and she looked like her gentle and aunt of the past.
"Wang Xi has already cast a net. Are you satisfied with the queen?" I looked at her with a smile, her face gradually gradual, showing a hint of sorrow in her ruthlessness.
She slowly turned around and stood with her back to me. It took a long time before she whispered softly. "If you don't grow long, it's mostly good. The old little grandma used to be like a snowball doll. It's not enough to love. "
I bit my lip and said nothing.
"But you're too old to be obedient ... I asked you if you hated your aunt that day, and you wouldn't tell the truth." She sighed and said quietly, "I know how you hate, why? Can you hate it? I have hated it for decades, and I do n’t hate it for a day! "
I opened my mouth, but I couldn't speak, my cheeks were cold, and I didn't know when I was in tears.
The sound of hate came out of the aunt's mouth, and it seemed that all the scars at the bottom of the heart were uncovered, and flesh and blood were thrown at me.
I couldn't hear it anymore, and trembled, "Aunt, I have only one word to tell you ... Grandma really doesn't hate you."
She turned and moved, her lips twitched slightly, and came over to embrace me, her body shaking violently.
I pressed my face against her skinny shoulders and let tears flow.
Under the cold inner hall, under the white veil fluttering by the wind, my aunt embraced and wept. Many years ago, she also held me so tenderly, no matter how willful crying I always coaxed me softly.
This warm and familiar embrace may be the last time I have tolerated my helplessness.
For a long time, after a long time, my aunt finally let go of me and turned away from me.
Her figure was stiff and her shoulders froze slightly. "Come, take down Princess Yuzhang."
The attendants of the temple stood silently behind the drapes, as if carved by woodcarvings, and no one responded.
"Come here!" The aunt was startled, shouting sharply, "Where is the guard inside the forbidden area?"
The guard outside the door replied that the sword suddenly came out of the sheath and the boots came in.
I raised my hand and hit each other with two palms. Three clear applause sounded through the empty hall.
Inside the screen, outside the drapery, and under the corridor ... Among the palace people who are usually silent, several silhouettes suddenly appeared, silent and fast, like ghosts appearing around us.
Without waiting for the guard to approach, the two maids bullied him, holding their blades in their hands, clasping the aunt's shoulders from left to right, and the blade approached her neck.
The others held their positions, blocking them in front of us.
The guard came in, saw a sudden change, and was stunned at the door.
"You--" Aunt trembled, her face completely blank, staring at me speechless.
Hearing the news, the forbidden army commander outside the hall has rushed to the hall, a sword light sword halter shaking.
Before I stepped coldly, Li Se said, "Bold! The emperor Long Yu smashed the sky, so dare to run straight into the dorm with a knife. Are you really going to rebel?"
The aunt struggled angrily, without fear of the edge of her neck, and screamed, "Get down Princess Yuzhang!"
The two leaders were shocked, and saw that the queen was subject to me.
"A bunch of waste, what do you want to do!" The aunt was furious. "Not yet?"
The guard outside the hall stood stubbornly. A commander clenched his teeth and was about to pull out his sabre. I turned my head and swept away to stop him.
"Who is going to do it with me?" I looked around and pulled out the short sword in my sleeve and pointed at the leader.
The man was shocked, his face turned green and white, and his sword was half drawn, but he dared not move half a minute.
I said rudely, "Breaking into the palace with a knife is a crime of death. It is lawful to pry into the nine races! Yuzhang Wang Dajun has surrounded the palace. If you can get lost, you will redeem your guilt. Don't blame you! "
Just at the time of the stalemate, the sound of neatly moving boots came from outside the hall, and the squadron approached here, and some people shouted, "The king of Yuzhang rebelled against the purpose. If there is a resister, kill it!"
The guards saw that Xue Liang's blade had been placed on the queen's neck, and the soldiers outside the hall looked at it sloppily, and the situation was completely reversed.
The man on the left finally threw his sabre off his hands and threw himself on his knees. The rest didn't persist and bowed down.
"Waste, all waste!" Aunt desperately scolded, suddenly made a profit, and ran into the knife with madness. The maid hurriedly withdrew the knife and held her tightly. I ordered the two commanders to immediately remove the soldiers and horses in front of the temple, and ordered the maid to rush to the East Palace to inform Xiao Yan that the queen had arrested her and arrested her.
The aunt was still swearing, her hair was chaotic, her manners were absent.
I walked slowly to her and looked at her deeply, "You lost, aunt."
"It is not shameful to defeat the king ... even if you lose, you must lose nobleness." I said this softly.
She was shocked, staring straight at me, her eyes staring for a moment, as if she had passed the time and revisited the past—when I was nine years old, I lost to my brother when I was playing chess. Just when I was angry and Sarai, my aunt said, " Winning or losing must have demeanor. Even if you lose, you must lose nobleness. "
My aunt looked at me, as if looking at a stranger she never knew, her eyes gradually dim.
For a long time, she smiled bitterly, "Yes, the king is defeated ... I never thought I was conceited, but I lost in your hands!"
She was scattered and chaotic, and I wanted to take care of her, but stretched out her hand and froze in mid-air, and a trace of tenderness left in my heart was stifled abruptly.
I clenched my fists and turned my head away from looking at her, indifferently, "At least, you didn't lose to outsiders."
She laughed suddenly until she was taken out of the hall, and that laughter echoed for a long time in the cold and quiet Qianyuan Hall.
On the day the aunt was assassinated, the handmaid was killed by the assassin, and she was stunned. I am about to keep the handmaids beside her, in case the evil in the palace is harmed again. [1] These women were selected by Xiao Kun from the best among them, and accompanied me as a maid to protect my safety.
At first they were left just to protect their aunts. However, after clearing the palace, I did not call them back to the palace. At that time, many old palace people were expelled, and new people were added everywhere. These maids were mixed in Zhaoyang Hall and did not attract the aunt's attention. I have agreed with them that their status must not be revealed except in an emergency; no one except me must obey orders.
I can't even tell myself when I started to guard against my aunt. Perhaps it was because of her temptations again and again, because she was wary of me, or because of my doubts and anxieties in my bones.
"It was late, the princess was shocked!" Pang Gui led people into the palace. "The king and horse of Yuzhang have taken over the Qianyuan Temple guard, and the prince and His Royal Highness are coming from the East Palace."
I looked at him and trembled, "What about the left phase?"
"The left side is unequivocal. Lord Wang Ji temporarily took over the banned army. General Hu was ordered to guard the town government. He didn't step into the middle of the palace." Pang Gui lowered his voice with joy, "Don't worry about the princess. There were no major injuries to the two sides. Nothing has changed in Beijing and everything is fine! "
All right, these short words are better than the sounds of Tianxian.
Everything gradually turned up and down in front of me, and then I realized that my sweat was already wet with clothes, and it was cold and sticking to my body.
Someone stepped forward to support me, and wanted to lift me to the chair, and just took a step, but my feet seemed to step into the void, only to feel the sky spin.
The maid called me in panic, and uttered a "prince", screaming "coming."
It was probably dizziness for a while, and I gradually returned to my senses, only to find them fussing.
Fortunately, Dad just led the soldiers into the palace, and did not rush into the matter. If the Beijing Central Army and Hu Guanglie's Tigers and the Army fought, it would be both defeats and irreparable. The aunt thought that she had set up a clever trap, and asked Jun to enter, but she didn't know that it was not Xiao Xun, but herself. I have probably figured out who betrayed her aunt—if her aunt saw her son who she had carefully protected, and stood next to Xiao Yan at the moment, showing off to her as a winner, I do n’t know what it would be like.
Burning the East Palace is just a play that confuses everyone's eyes. It just covered up this dangerous palace change and burned the glass palace, but it has achieved the feats of King Yuzhang's protection of the East Palace.
"Can the princess be in the temple?" Xiao Yan's voice came from far outside the temple, so anxious and calm.
I was a little flustered, lest he saw me like this, he helped the maid, and tried to get up from the chair.
When the body moved, the sudden pain seemed to tear people apart, and there was a heat flow between my legs ... I fell down softly, and the maid beside me couldn't help me ... The pain worsened, and I bit my lip and forbeared, I just felt the heat flowing down my legs.
What's wrong, I fell to the ground, tremblingly stretched out my hands to lift the skirt, and my eyes were scarlet!
At the opening of the temple door, Xiao Yan strode in, and his armor was bright.
"Ama-" He paused suddenly, his eyes fixed on me instantly.
I looked up at him suddenly, I don't know how to explain the current wolf howl, I don't know what's going on ... I'm not injured, but I'm bleeding inexplicably ...
His face changed, his eyes turned from that scarlet to my face, his eyes full of sorrow.
"Pass on the doctor, quickly pass on the doctor!" He hugged me in a hurry, even his voice was shaking.
I barely smiled, and wanted to tell him not to be afraid, I'm fine. However, when he opened his mouth, he couldn't make a sound, leaning in his arms, his body became colder and colder, and his eyes gradually blurred.
