Chapter 189: Forced Palace Death

Zhao Jingkang came out of the dormitory and stood at the door in a daze, his eyes were a little dull, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Listening to what Zhao Yonglin said to himself, he sighed several times.

His hands were clenched, and Zhao Yonglin's words were intertwined with Zhang Qingyuan's words in his mind, and there was already a faint hint of darkness ahead.

The arrival of the night will hide some dirt, and in the same way, it will magnify all the feelings in people's hearts, and then be known.

After a long time, Zhao Jingkang took a step forward, but the direction was not the direction of the palace gate, but his own dormitory.

If you have a plan, what's the use of stopping it now?

Whatever the consequences, they are to blame and have nothing to do with others.

Moreover, it is about the stability of a country, how can the whole country be in trouble because of personal reasons?

My father is right, sometimes we should focus on the big picture. Rather than sticking to small things.

It was already getting dark, and the whole palace was also in darkness, with soldiers patrolling and palace people running with lanterns.

In the dormitory, Zhao Yonglin was lying on the bed, his eyes open, motionless, looking at the slightly flickering candlelight, as if waiting for something to come.

In the prison, Zhang Qing stood on tiptoe and lay on the small window, trying to catch the last ray of light, but in the end he still let the light slip away from his fingertips.

There was an excited look on his face, and he muttered to himself: "It's soon, it's fast." ”

King An's Mansion, at this time, Zhao Jing'an had just eaten well, came out of the mansion, got into a carriage, and prepared to enter the palace.

In the palace, Master Empty Sorrow was already standing at the door of the main hall, waiting for the final battle.

It is like the red glow in the distant sky, red like fire, bright like blood, but it is fleeting, leaving only a touch of bright red in people's impression.

Zhang Qingguo had already come out of the mansion, not in civilian clothes, but in the uniform when he went into battle to kill the enemy.

At this time, Zhao Jingkang sat on a chair, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, every time he drank it, he listened to the movements around him, and somehow, he suddenly felt that the palace at this time was quiet and scary.

Perhaps this was the rhythm of the storm, and his heart quickened a lot, and his hands trembled faintly.

The palace guards changed quickly, and after the sky was completely dark, when the new class of guards changed, the guards who were supposed to go to rest did not go, but when the new guards stepped forward, they raised their knives and killed the people in front of them.

Suddenly, the entire palace gate was dyed red, and there were screams of fighting.

I don't know who lit the torch, and the brightness of the torch gradually expanded, and finally the entire palace gate was illuminated.

As if it were a code, a firelight lit up in every corner of the palace, and the firelight flickered, and behind the firelight were the extremely excited guards and generals.

Zhang Qingguo stood in front of the palace gate, looking at the palace swallowed by the night, suddenly raised the sword in his hand, and a sonorous voice came: "Chong, for today, rush!" ”

All of a sudden, the whole palace resounded with such a shout, and the guards who had been ordered to do so, like bees from heaven to honey, rushed towards the main hall in a swarm.

The guards, who had already been at the front, trembled all over their bodies when they saw so many people, even though they had weapons in their hands.

A battle began, the flames flowed, and the screams and horrors were endless.

The sound of the sword piercing into the flesh and bones echoed throughout the palace.

The strong smell of blood spread throughout the palace.

The guards who were guarding had long been defeated and were killed one after another, and Zhang Qingguo led his men to the door of the main hall as if they had entered a no-man's land.

Zhang Qingxuan in the prison heard the sound of fighting and roaring outside, and he was already slumped on the ground, his hands tightly grasping the hay, and the corners of his mouth hooked a desperate and poignant smile.

"It's over, it's over, it's still over, hahahaha!!" Look up to the sky and roar.

At the entrance of the main hall, Master Empty Sorrow was facing thousands of people in front of him.

The brothers who haven't seen each other for a long time, but now goodbye is in this way.

In the rear, the guards are ready to move, as long as Zhang Qingguo gives an order, the entire palace can be captured.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The guards raised the weapons in their hands and shouted rhythmically.

Zhang Qingguo didn't expect that the rumored Master of Empty Sorrow was an old friend who had been lost for many years, and his eyes flashed with horror, and then he returned to normal.

His eyes were fierce, and with a wave of his hand, the sound behind him stopped.

Master Empty Compassion smiled lightly, "Amitabha! After speaking, he took a step forward, "Qingguo, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect to see you again, this is to meet in such a special way, don't come unharmed." ”

"Humph! I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect to become a monk? Why is it that the monk is tired of doing it now, and he wants to come back and die? There was mockery in his tone, and even more disdain on his face.

"Naturally not, this time it's not to send you to death, but to clear up years of grievances, Qingguo, do you really think you can get a great cause tonight?"

His eyes squinted behind Zhang Qingguo, and then swept behind those soldiers, looking at the fire that had become popular throughout the palace, and faintly, a pleasant drum beat sounded outside the palace gate.

This kind of drum beating can only be encountered in the battle to kill the enemy, and when Zhang Qingguo heard it, his face immediately changed.

"What do you mean?" There was no taunting, and there was caution on his face.

"That means you won't be able to leave tonight." Zhao Yonglin came out of the hall with the support of a father-in-law, and his eyes swept over Zhang Qingguo and the people behind Zhang Qingguo one by one.

There was remorse and questioning in his eyes, why did the people he valued on weekdays betray him?

When the guards behind him saw Zhao Yonglin coming out, their hearts had already begun to panic, and they shouted in panic: "Your Majesty"

"Your Majesty is here."

"Your Majesty knows."

And so on, and in the end, the whole team was in an uproar, out of order, and in boundless terror.

I almost knelt down en masse.

Zhang Qingguo's face has become very ugly, "Don't panic, everyone, this is just his strategy, if you want to make our army uncertain, this person is not Your Majesty at all, how could Your Majesty become like this overnight?" Do not fall for their schemes. ”

"The military power has all fallen into my hands, and the entire palace is under my control, do you think you still have the ability to resist?"

"Why not? Qingguo, you seem to ignore the military power in the frontier, and you only have the military power in the capital, and outside the capital, hehe. ”

Master Kongbei slapped his hand, and then hard-armored ironclad soldiers poured in from all directions, including the army led by Zhao Jingxuan and the secret guards led by Zhao Jing'an, and a group of people quickly surrounded all Zhang Qingguo's guards.

"You think it's seamless, but in fact we are catching turtles in an urn and catching them all." As soon as his hand was closed, Zhao Jing'an slowly walked to the side of Master Empty Sorrow.

"Despicable, shameless!" As if there was a flame burning in his chest, Zhang Qingguo was extremely angry.

His face showed a fierce color, "In this case, if you want to kill it, you can do whatever you want." As soon as the guards in the rear heard Zhang Qingguo say this, they put down their weapons one after another and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life!"

All of a sudden, there were voices begging for mercy.

Zhao Yonglin looked at all this coldly, turned around and was helped into the palace by his father-in-law, and said to Zhao Jing'an when he turned around: "Everything is up to you, no matter how you deal with it, I won't care." ”

If there was no Zhao Jing'an, I am afraid that the palace would have fallen long ago at this time, and blood would have flowed everywhere.

Zhao Yonglin walked slowly step by step, tilting his head sideways to look at Zhao Jing'an, who was majestic, like God, and looked at everything, and suddenly found that this son was the strangest.

Although I love him, I don't know him at all, and I can't even talk about him.

"Didn't you already know about our plans and wait for today?" Zhang Qingguo questioned Master Empty Sorrow.

Master Empty Sorrow smiled indifferently, "Since you know, why do you still ask?" Didn't you besiege my family like this back then? Now like this, it's light for you, Yuan'er killed my sister, and you want to kill me, but in the end, it's not you who fall into the worst situation? The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and you already have such a position, but you still want to be higher, but you don't know that it will push you into the boundless hell. ”

"This, I don't need you to say it, since I plan to do this, I have long expected this step, no matter what the consequences are, I will not resist, I just ask you to let go of the Zhang family." Even if it is Zhang Qingguo, who has been galloping on the battlefield for many years, he still can't bear it when he thinks of the Zhang family's old age.

Because of his personal desires, he affected the entire Zhang family, and he was naturally ashamed in his heart.

"This, I can't let you have the final say, according to the law, you can do what you want, I don't want others to say that this king can't do it." With a wave of his hand, the secret guards behind him quickly stepped forward and captured the guards one by one, and Zhang Qingguo was captured by Zhao An and Zhao Quan, needless to say.

In the prison, Zhang Qingyuan waited nervously for the guard to bring her news.

Because of his scheming, he just used a ring on his hand to ask the guards to find out the news.

The sound of footsteps came, Zhang Qingyuan immediately leaned on the cell door, saw that it was the guard, and asked eagerly, "How is it?" How's it going? How's it going out there? ”

"Captured alive." The guard shook his head and sighed.

"Captured alive, who was captured alive? Hurry up and tell Hongu. ”

"Who else? Naturally, you, General Zhang, were captured alive, don't you think Your Majesty was captured alive? I advise you to stop daydreaming and wait for death in this prison with peace of mind. With that, the guard turned and walked away.

Zhang Qing's brain seemed to be struck by an alarm bell, and the huge shock made her unable to come back to her senses, and when she came back to her senses, she had slipped and fallen to the ground.

"Sure enough, sure enough."

His eyes were hollow, and he muttered in his mouth.

Suddenly, his eyes became clear, and in the end, he slowly reached into his arms with one hand and took out a small sachet from his arms.

Open the sachet, and there is a small black pill in the sachet.

With trembling hands, he pinched the small pill in front of his eyes, and finally closed his eyes, put it in his mouth, and slid up and down his throat, the pill had already been swallowed.
