Chapter 209: Treat everyone equally
"Commander Xiao has a good plan, this plan to delay the army can resist for a while. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Chu Zhaoye praised with a smile.
Xiao Gang didn't want to be greedy for Yan Ning's merits, glanced at the third prince, and said in a loud voice, "Your Highness praises it, this plan is not what the lower officials thought, it was instructed by Miss Yan." ”
These three princes are very courageous, seeing the rebel torches around him approaching, and even hearing the shouting and cheering, he still does not change his face.
"Miss Yan? Is it Yan Ning of Yan Mansion? ”
"Yes." Xiao Gang responded to a word, and without further words, there were more torches nearby. He made a few gestures to get the rocket ready, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, go to the Qinzheng Pavilion quickly." ”
Chu Zhaoye didn't expect Yan Ning to be in the palace so late, and he was a little surprised to hear that this fire attack strategy was made by Yan Ning.
"Your Highness, the Qinzheng Pavilion has arrived, if the rebels surround this place......" Li Gui saw the Qinzheng Pavilion getting closer and closer, and reminded in a low voice.
"Let's go and guard the Diligence Pavilion." Chu Zhaoye replied, walked a few steps, and called a guard, "When you go to Yan's mansion, you will say that Empress Yan, Miss Yan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are trapped by the rebels, and I hope General Yan will bring someone to rescue them." ”
Inside and outside the imperial city, it covers a huge area.
Judging from the situation of the rebels, they divided part of their forces to besiege the East Palace, and the rest of the people had to defend the palace wall and capture the Qinzheng Pavilion, so that the number was scattered.
If it can be said that Yan Mingde will take the Fuzhong family to relieve the siege in the future, then it will be more certain to delay the time and wait for reinforcements.
His sister, nephew, and most importantly, his own daughter was also trapped, and with the affectionate nature of the Yan family, Yan Mingde should bring someone in soon.
Li Gui saw that Chu Zhaoye had already decided, so he didn't dare to say more, so he just followed behind His Royal Highness and quickly walked up the steps of the Qinzheng Pavilion.
Under the eaves of the high platform of the Qinzheng Pavilion, Yan Ning was standing there, asking someone to move some tables and chairs out to be used as arrow stacks.
When the guards saw Chu Zhaoye and dozens of people running onto the high platform, they all looked at Yan Ning and waited for her to give an order.
Yan Ning nodded and motioned for the Ouchi guards to let them go.
Chu Zhaoye ran up to the high platform, and saw that the gate of the Qinzheng Pavilion was closed, and Kang Shou was outside the gate, "Manager Kang, how is my father?" As he spoke, he made a gesture to push the door.
Kang Bao took two steps and stopped, "Third Highness, the imperial doctor is helping the Holy Lord to heal, and the queen mother ordered the idlers and others not to disturb and stay outside." ”
"Your Royal Highness is so filial, it's coming so fast." Yan Ning didn't wait for Chu Zhaoye to speak again, and said directly, "Could it be that His Royal Highness was guarding the gate of the palace, and when he saw the rebels attacking, he rushed into the palace?" ”
"Ning'er still has a little bit to joke, I heard the sound of killing from the palace in the house, so I took someone to take a look. I didn't expect you to be in the palace too. Chu Zhaoye explained unhurriedly.
"Your Highness is here, Concubine Lin can arrange it properly?" Yan Ning asked sarcastically.
Looking at the direction Chu Zhaoye came from, it should have passed through the inner palace. If he had been to Concubine Lin, he would inevitably encounter rebels on the way.
She stood on this high platform, and she didn't see any fighting in the inner palace. Chu Zhaoye didn't see Concubine Lin in this group, obviously, this person heard that Emperor Yuan was in Qinzheng Pavilion, so he immediately rushed over. If Concubine Lin knew about her son's approach, I don't know if she would be chilled.
It's a pity that the enemy is now present, otherwise, I really want to run to see Concubine Lin's face.
Concubine Lin's face was, of course, not good.
After hearing that a rebel army had rushed into the imperial palace, she hid in the palace and sent a few confidants to send a letter to the Three Princes' Mansion.
Now, I finally looked forward to a palace person, but I saw that behind the palace person, only two eunuchs, Chu Zhaoye, did not follow into the palace.
She asked in surprise, "You didn't find the Third Highness?" ”
"Niangniang, the slave maid found the Third Highness, and the Third Highness entered the palace." The palace man was afraid that Concubine Lin would be angry, so he hurriedly replied.
"Coming to the palace? Then why hasn't he come here yet? Did you get stuck in something? ”
"Third Highness, I heard, I heard that the Holy Lord was trapped in the Qinzheng Pavilion, and the Third Highness rushed to rescue the driver, so I asked these two fathers-in-law to come over and protect the mother." The palace people trembled as they spoke, looking at Concubine Lin's increasingly bad face, and after spit out the last word, they lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at it again.
Concubine Lin heard that Chu Zhaoye had entered the palace, but she only let two eunuchs protect her, and she was both angry and sad in her heart, and she only felt a chill.
At the moment of crisis, the son is busy running for the throne, and he doesn't care about his mother?
"The Holy One is in the Qinzheng Pavilion? So we ...... Let's go to the Qinzheng Pavilion. Concubine Lin thought of the palace people just now who said that Chu Zhaoye went to the Qinzheng Pavilion, and she had a glimmer of hope.
"The queen mother issued a phoenix edict, and everyone in the palace guarded their palace rooms. If anyone disobeys, there will be no forgiveness! ”
"What? Shall we stay in our own palace and wait for death? When Concubine Lin heard this phoenix message, she was a little furious, "You go again...... Go to Lin Shangshu's mansion again and find Lin Shangshu. ”
"Niangniang, I can't get out, the palace gate is all watched by the rebels." The palace man hurriedly replied.
Concubine Lin heard that the palace gate was also watched, and in her ears, she heard screams from time to time, obviously, it was the palace eunuchs that the rebels encountered in slaughtering.
She only felt a handful of cold sweat in her palms.
"Niangniang, Your Highness ordered the two servants to protect you, or go to the palace where no one is nearby for a while, right?" A eunuch sent by Chu Zhaoye suggested.
A palace with no one?
In this palace, it's not safe to hide anywhere, right?
These two eunuchs have some fist and foot skills, but their skills can only be said to be acceptable. In the face of so many rebels outside, they naturally didn't dare to say that they would take Concubine Lin to avoid
Concubine Lin wanted to scold angrily, but after losing hope, her mind cleared up a little, "Order, close the palace door." No one is allowed to open the door without my orders. and extinguished all the candles in the palace. ”
After Concubine Lin gave this order, she took the two eunuchs and walked to the depths of the palace.
In the inner palace, the other concubines, like Concubine Lin, ordered to extinguish the candles.
There is the queen mother guarding the palace room and not allowed to walk around, and the rebels are slashing and killing the palace people and eunuchs they encounter, strangely, at this time in the palace, no one dares to go around. Everyone, hiding in a corner where they think they are safe, waiting for the dawn.
The huge palace is silent, and no human voices can be heard, as if, at this time, this is an empty city.
Torches flashed everywhere.
Occasionally, a eunuch or a palace man was found by the rebels from their hiding place, and when they were killed, they let out one or two screams.
Or, there is the courage of someone who has the audacity to besiege a lone rebel, and when the rebel falls to the ground, the torch in his hand draws an arc.
The killer and the slain, there is no superfluous voice.
Concubine Lin hid in the corner of the palace, and what she thought of was the way of the emperor that she heard from her teachers and Chu Zhaoye when she was a child: Heaven and earth are unkind and all things are used as dogs. The husband is the king, and the people are ruled equally...... (To be continued.) )
