Chapter 12: The Life Xi Shi Wants (11)

"King, you haven't been to court these days, and those ministers must be scolding me again. Xianglan saw Xi Shi pouting and complained to her husband in annoyance.

"Do you want this king to listen to those people nagging every day?"

"The king can't accompany his concubines when he goes to court, and of course the concubines don't like it. But you can go to the imperial study and deal with some musicals! The concubine can always see you!" Shi Shi blinked his big eyes in anticipation.

"Okay! For the sake of the virtuous name of the 'queen', this king will work hard to deal with the twists and turns today!" The husband scratched Xi Shi's nose dotingly, and took Xi Shi to the imperial study.

The imperial study is in the left hall of the Ming Zheng Palace, and there is a compartment arranged as a bedroom, and the king can rest there directly when he is tired of dealing with political affairs. Outside the Imperial Study, there were soldiers. Unless ordered by the king, ordinary attendants were not allowed to enter. Pandan never went in.

Shih Tzu did not come out that night. The next day, after Xi Shi returned to the sleeping room of the Ming Zheng Palace, he dismissed all the servants except Xianglan, took out a roll of cloth from his sleeve and handed it to Xianglan, Xianglan opened it and saw that it was the military defense layout map of Fusu City, the location, the number of people, the main general, the road, etc. were clearly marked, and he was immediately overjoyed, and immediately took a deep look at Xi Shi, "Mrs. has worked hard!"

"Madame?" Shi Shimei glared and looked at Xianglan.

Xianglan was stunned for a moment, and quickly changed her words obediently: "It's 'girl', the slave said something wrong, please forgive me!"

Xi Shi once told her that she was called "Mrs." in front of people, but she should be called "girl" in the future, because she was not married to Fan Li, she only recognized Fan Li as her husband, so she had to call her "girl" before marrying Fan Li.

"That's pretty much it. I secretly found it last night while King Wu was asleep, so hurry up and pass it on. Brother Young Uncle must be in a hurry!" Xi Shi ordered.

"Yes. The slave and maid will do it. Xianglan stepped back.

When Gou Jian and Fan Li got the military defense layout map of Fusu City, their happy hands trembled. With this plan in place, why worry about the failure of the great cause? The two immediately summoned their advisers and generals to arrange their troops, in an attempt to hit the enemy with one blow.

On February 8, the sun was rising and the sky was just right. Today, the husband will crown Xi Shi as queen in Gyeongbokgung Palace.

Gou Jian and Fan Li put on armor and held sharp, and when they saw that it was about to be noon, they gave an order, and took out all the 3,000 elite armored soldiers hidden in the Anle Hou Mansion and the Anping Hou Mansion, and went straight to the palace.

The captain of the guard guarding the door of the Wu Palace today is called Wang Cheng. Today is the post-sealing ceremony, and many ministers have to enter the palace. In the morning, he had already put Dazai and the others inside. At this time, he saw a team coming from unknown sources rushing to the palace gate, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to close the palace gate tightly and not open it, and sent someone to deliver the news to King Wu.

At this time, Dazai came out of the inner palace with a team of guards behind him.

The thousands of troops he can influence have been deployed in accordance with the military defense layout of Fusu City, and behind him are the guards who were placed in the palace early in the morning. As long as the palace gate is opened for Gou Jian, his task will be completed.

"The ceremony is about to begin, Captain Wang didn't hurry up and let everyone into the palace, why is the palace door still closed?" Dazai Yao asked Wang Cheng directly as soon as he came over.

"Lord Hui, there is an unknown army outside the palace gate, and the lower officials dare not put it into the palace. Wang Cheng replied truthfully.

Two days ago, the old commander, who was already at home, approached him and told him to guard the palace gate and beware of Dazai. Although he didn't know why, he still had a strong wariness of Dazai.

Dazai Yao glanced at the army outside the palace gate, and knew that it was undoubtedly Goujian, so he said to Wang Cheng: "This is what I transferred to protect King Wu, to prevent anyone from making trouble, and to ensure that today's post-sealing ceremony can be carried out smoothly." Open the palace gates!"

Wang Cheng was suspicious in his heart, and said bluntly: "The army must have the king's edict when entering the palace, can the lord bring the edict to me?"

"This was allowed by the king himself, and there was no decree. With the king's faith in me, do you still doubt me?" Dazai said, with a hint of persecution in his tone.

"Xia Guan naturally didn't dare to doubt your lord. But where the duty lies, the subordinate can't open the door. Please come back after inviting your lord!" Wang Cheng's tone was sonorous, and he resolutely refused to open the palace door.

"Do you know what happens if you offend your own officials?" Dazai asked aloud with a look of displeasure.

"The lower officials don't dare to offend the adults, but they don't dare to violate their duties, and I ask for your forgiveness. Wang Cheng didn't back down at all.

"You ......," Dazai was furious, but instead said, "Okay then." He glanced at Wang Cheng behind him, and suddenly shouted: "Do it!"

Before Wang Cheng could react, he felt a tingling pain in his waist. The soldiers brought by Dazai also fought with his own men.

Wang Cheng looked back with difficulty and saw that it was his deputy Xiao Qiang who gave him a knife.

"You ......"

"I'm sorry, big brother. Dazai-sama helped me pay off my gambling debts and gave me a large sum of money to support my mother, and I had to listen to him. Xiao Qiang still had a trace of entanglement in his eyes, but he still had the upper hand, "I know I'm not promising, I've never been as good as you, but your position will be mine in the future." Brother, I'll do it for you. ”

Xiao Qiang's wrist turned, and another tingling pain came, Wang Cheng's eyes darkened, and he fell.

Before losing consciousness, he also heard Xiao Qiang's voice, "If you still don't listen to Dazai-sama's words, open the city gate quickly!"

When Wang Cheng opened his eyes again, there were no living people at the gate of the palace. There was blood everywhere, there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and the corpses of his soldiers lay on the ground.

I'm going to get the word out! I'm looking for help!

Wang Cheng covered the bleeding wound with his hand and stood up tremblingly.

A dense sound of footsteps came from outside. Wang Cheng looked at the blood-stained wall, and saw Wu Zixu leading a group of armored soldiers to arrive.

"Prime Minister, is it you? Dazai Yao colluded with outsiders to rebel, and the king is in danger!" Wang Cheng was ecstatic, he couldn't be surprised, and hurriedly reported the situation to Wu Zixu and asked him to save him.

"I see. You are good, hold on!" Wu Zixu patted Wang Cheng on the shoulder, leaving two soldiers to take care of him, and led the army to rush to the inner palace.

After Gou Jian and Fan Li entered the palace, they went directly to Gyeongbokgung Palace.

Gyeongbokgung Palace is covered with red carpets all over the place, and the main hall is magnificently decorated. Some ministers were sitting in front of their desks chatting. The attendants shuttled back and forth among them.

Gou Jian and Fan Li ordered the soldiers to kill people when they saw them, and the harmonious hall soon became a hell on earth.

The hall was soon emptied. Gou Jian and Fan Li did not find the figure of the husband, so they ordered the soldiers to search with all their might.

Gou Jian turned his head to look at the golden king chair in the center of the main hall, couldn't hold back the greed in his heart, strode over and sat down, stroked the exquisite carvings on the king chair, and laughed, "Husband, husband, you are in vain, but I didn't expect it to be ruined in the hands ......of a woman!"

Thinking of Xi Shi's beautiful face, Gou Jian couldn't help but feel itchy, and said loudly: "Fan Xiang, Xi Shi is a great hero of our Yue Kingdom, you go and find her for me." ”

He also kept a copy of the portraits of the ten beauties he gave to his husband, and often took them out to see.

These most beautiful women, who should have been lying under him every night, forced it* and gave it to her husband. In the following years, it was not that there were no younger and equally beautiful women in the Yue Kingdom, but these ten people had become his obsession, and they were a sign of his defeat and humiliation that year.

Over the years, these ten people have gradually withered, and now only one Shih Tzu remains. Didn't the husband love her the most? He was going to make her his own confiner.

Fan Li responded: "Yes!" and turned around and left randomly.

How could he not know Gou Jian's thoughts? He understands Gou Jian just like he understands another self. Thinking of Xi Shi, this beautiful woman was once so attached to him, Fan Li sneered and shook his head.

There is only one woman left and right, how can an official position be important? As long as she is powerful, what kind of woman in the world can't get her hands on it?

Fan Li led the troops to search the entire Gyeongbokgung Palace, but they did not find the shadow of Fucha and Xi Shi.

Could it be in the Ming Zheng Palace? It stands to reason that Fucha and Zheng Dan should hold a ceremony at Gyeongbokgung Palace, and this is the reason why they led their troops to kill here first after entering the palace. If you are not in Gyeongbokgung Palace, then you should be hiding in Myeongjeongjeongjeongjeon. According to the news from the inside, Fucha and Xi Shi have recently lived in the Ming Zheng Palace, which is the base camp of Fucha.

Fan Li informed Gou Jian. took half of the elite soldiers to the Ming Zheng Palace. The map of Wu Gong had already been in his hands. He was as familiar here as he was in his own garden. Soon found the Ming Zheng Palace.

Unexpectedly, there was no resistance when entering the temple. After going in and searching, they found that it was an empty temple. Fan Li's heart sank, and he secretly said "It's broken". Just as he was about to exit, he found that the door of the temple had been locked from the outside. They were ambushed.

Whoosh ...... Hundreds of fiery arrows came from all over the world, and the temple was suddenly on fire everywhere. The soldiers panicked.

Fan Li said in a deep voice: "Break through!" Everyone rushed to the door. Unexpectedly, a fire was also ignited at the door, and the fire was no smaller than that in the temple. Some soldiers tried to climb over the wall to get out, but found that the surrounding walls were also on fire. Everyone was desperate, escorting Fan Li to rush in one direction, and used the sword in his hand to push the burning thing to the side.

Due to the lack of troops in the palace, Fu Cha discussed with Wu Zixu early in the morning to use Jingfu Palace and Mingzheng Hall to contain Gou Jian and Fan Li, so that they could disperse their forces and break them one by one.

Gyeongbokgung Palace has always been the place where Wu State deals with political affairs, and the place is large, so it is not appropriate to do too much in order to paralyze Goujian. And the Ming Zheng Hall is just an independent building, and it is not difficult to rebuild one after it is damaged. Therefore, the husband sent his secret guards to prepare a lot of flammable materials such as fire oil at the entrance and wall of the Ming Zheng Palace, and attacked them with fire after the Yue soldiers were counted in the urn.

The plan is a good plan. But this also leads to fewer guards around the husband.

Wu Zixu was worried about his husband, and after leading the army into the palace, he directly divided the troops into two ways, one was led by him and rushed directly to the cold palace, and the other was led by his henchmen to Gyeongbokgung Palace. Although it is important to catch Gou Jian, it is even more important to protect the thoroughness of King Wu. He must first go to the cold palace to rescue the driver.
