Chapter 70: Trapped in the Palace

Fortunately, Cheng He came to the Qin family tonight, otherwise Qin Ran really didn't know how to arrange these things. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Li Zulan and Yalan first arrived in Chang'an, they were not very familiar with people and things, and Qin Ran was too uneasy to entrust the Zhao family and others to the two of them, while Cheng He was flexible, and he didn't seem to be very reliable, but he was actually quite reliable, and he was responsible and responsible, and it was the best choice for him to send a few people out of Chang'an.

After explaining to Cheng He, Qin Ran turned to the back of the screen and quickly changed his clothes.

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Shi reacted to the meaning of Qin Ran's words, and when Qin Ran changed her clothes, she stepped forward and grabbed her daughter's hand, as if she was choked up and unable to speak for a while, for a long time, Zhao only said four words with tears - we are waiting for you.

Afterwards, Qin Ran got into the carriage when the little eunuch came, the silver-armored soldiers followed on both sides, and the carriage drove quietly all the way to the palace gate.

"Stop, it's Dali Temple Qin Temple?"

Qin Ran lifted the curtain and saw a row of huge defensive wooden frames placed on the left and right sides in front of the palace gate, and there were halberds in the corners, and the guards were all dressed in armor and wearing swords, and they were strictly guarded.

The guard had seen Qin Ran before, and after confirming that it was her, he notified his colleagues at the city gate to open the palace gate.

The carriage drove straight to the main hall, and through the side of the curtain of the carriage, she could see that there was a bright light in front of her, and she came back to her senses and fixed the place where she put the burning cold on her legs.

As the saying goes, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, she prefers to go to the tiger mountains, and she knows that there are all kinds of dire situations ahead, so she must jump in, because she wants to find Song Tianxian.

Through Song Tianye's hints and explicits, Qin Ran knew that Li Hao, the crown prince of the dynasty, was not the bloodline of the saint Li Yi, especially when Mrs. Song saw Song Tianying who returned to Chang'an privately when she was a teenager in her memory, she knew that Li Hao and Song Tianying, who was far away in Zhaozhou, were the brothers of the same mother.

Thinking back to the first time Qin Ran saw the saint, his facial features, his eyes, and his smile had actually planted a seed of doubt in her heart, but Qin Ran didn't dare to guess, let alone dig out the truth of the matter.

It's not that Qin Ran can't bear the final facts, but once this matter is revealed, the person who will be hit the most will be Song Tianxian, compared to facing Hua's neglect of him in the past and even the attitude of not allowing him to exist, Qin Ran knows that he will definitely investigate the real reason for Hua Mingsu's death. Hua Mingsu is like a domino at the top, overthrowing this card will have a chain reaction that will put the entire Tang Dynasty into an extremely dangerous situation, some people will make trouble to abolish the prince, some people will take the opportunity to rebel, the Hua family and the Song family will be beheaded all over the house, and Song Tianyi will be able to become the prince smoothly?

The existing princes and all forces are bound to unite to get rid of Song Tianxian.

And now, the Mongolian State invaded the land of the Tang Dynasty to burn, kill and loot, and the Qin State also took advantage of the chaos to start a war, with internal and external troubles, and the Tang Dynasty was in danger.

Qin Ran couldn't tell Song Tianxian what she knew, but at this moment, she resented why she didn't stop him from entering the palace, even if she couldn't stop him, a few more hints would help him avoid being trapped in the palace.

"Qin Sicheng, please get out of the car."

As soon as she got out of the car, she had just stood firmly, and several shiny knives were already on her neck.

Qin Ran didn't make any resistance, she entered the main hall with the soldiers, and as expected, Concubine Yu and the fifth prince Li Sheng rebelled under the banner of the Qing monarch's side!

Overnight, they summoned the important officials from their respective homes to the palace, and then imprisoned everyone in the palace. Of course, before coming, a few alert officials noticed that something was wrong when the eunuch passed on the holy edict, but before the officials sent someone out to verify the news, the eunuch's attitude changed greatly, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to come forward and take the person away, if they did not leave, they would be punished for the crime of rebellion.

Qin Ran is the last person on the list of Yu Guifei, and the person who entered the palace one step earlier than her was Chi Jiheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, although he knew that there were differences in the palace, but Chi Jiheng had to come, because his eldest son Chi Jinyuan was forcibly taken away on the way back to Xuanyangfang later.

As soon as she entered, all the people in the temple looked at her, but she could not find the person she wanted.

Raising her eyes and looking carefully at the hall, she found that almost all the important officials of the court had arrived.

The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Soldiers, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Households in the six departments of the three provinces, and the Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple, Zongzheng Temple, Taifu Temple, Dali Temple, Honglu Temple, Sinong Temple, and Taifu Temple in the nine temples all came.

Qin Ran's eyes turned to the corner, Zheng Ze, the secretary of the ministry, that is, Zheng Kai's father, didn't know what happened to him before, Qin Ran saw Zheng Ze sitting under a temple pillar with pale lips and bloodless lips, and his son Zheng Chen, who was protecting him, patted him on the back to smooth him, and took the water bladder handed by Zhou Yuanyuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Qin Ran heard Cheng He say that Zheng Ze and Zhou Yuanyuan were close friends, and Zheng Kai left Rongcheng because of Zhou Yuanyuan's ideas.

Still standing at the door of the hall, there was the footsteps of a group of people behind Qin Ran, and before the person at the head appeared, his voice had already entered the hall.

"It's almost there, tonight's show is about to begin."

The person who came was Li Sheng, the fifth prince, who entered the palace, followed by Lin Jianjie, the head of the household department, and Yang Zhidao, the head of the household department, the former was the maternal grandfather of Li Sheng, the father of the jade concubine, and the latter was the father of Yang Huiying, the former first female official who had left the palace.

As soon as he saw Li Sheng, Zheng Ze got up angrily, rushed into the crown angrily, and pointed at him.

"Li Sheng, do you think that by holding the Holy Lord hostage and placing many ministers under house arrest, you will be able to ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Emperor? Do you know that the crime of rebellion is the first of the 'ten evils' in the "Tang Law"! ”

"This is wrong, Zheng Shangshu, this prince is really protecting you important ministers of the court, and this prince sent someone to escort you to the palace, so that you can avoid disasters. By the way, you may not know that the companions of the real rebels are setting fire to the mansions of some courtiers, and the prince is on the way to the palace, only to see the fire in the city! ”

As soon as Li Sheng's words came out, everyone's faces, including Zheng Ze, changed, and he was so ruthless!

Taking this opportunity, he removed the ministers and their families, and easily poured dirty water on others, and thinking of the fires in various parts of the city, many people couldn't help but feel anxious, whether Li Sheng's fire had burned to their own courtyard!

"Don't worry, later, you will meet the real rebel - Li Hao!"

"Full of nonsense!" Zheng Ze interrupted Li Sheng and spoke sharply. "How could the prince rebel? It is clear that there are people who have wolf ambitions and want to do great rebellion! ”

Zheng Ze, the secretary of the ministry, visited the flood disaster in Hexi with the saint all the way in his early years, and the two were very affectionate, his sister went to the palace as a concubine, and Zheng Ze was Li Sheng, who would rather die than succumb to the rebellion.

Li Sheng knew this, and he didn't bother to say more to him, when he sat on the throne, the Zheng family would be the first to be raided.

"Zheng Shangshu, this prince doesn't argue with you, but this prince wants to teach you the truth of being a man, and only if your fists are hard enough can you have the right to speak."

Li Sheng gave him a look, the figure of the man in a gray robe next to him moved, and when the man drew his knife, he was already in front of Zheng Ze under the column, the tip of his knife was aimed at his throat, but Zheng Chen reacted sensitively and pushed Zheng Ze away.

The momentum of the falling knife is irreversible, and the tip of the knife can't taste Zheng Ze's blood, so it will use Zheng Chen's blood to pay tribute!

It was too late to say that it was too fast, but it was just a blink of an eye, and when everyone was amazed, someone appeared again, she kicked at the wrist of the gray-robed man, the man's hand shook, and the tip of the knife missed Zheng Chen's neck, cutting a not-so-deep cut on his arm.

The gray-robed man's wrist swelled and ached, and the knife fell to the ground.

Everyone looked at that person, and it was Qin Ran from Dali Temple!

Zheng Ze was heartfelt in the saint, and naturally saw through Li Sheng's plan, if he wanted to jump out to resist, Li Sheng would inevitably take his life, and at this time, Qin Ran stopped Li Sheng from killing, and her fate was self-evident.

"Who is this prince, it was Qin Ran of Dali Temple Qin Temple, I haven't seen you for many days, but this prince thinks you are very tight."

Seeing Qin Ran, Li Sheng could be said to have a smug look, if he had a tail, his tail would have already risen to the sky!

Qin Ran fell into Li Sheng's hands, he would definitely take good care of her to relieve the hatred in his heart that he had lost face a few days ago.

"Fang Dao, greet her for the prince." Li Sheng said as he walked to the top dragon chair.

Next to the golden pillar in the hall, the two didn't say much and started fighting directly.

The people around retreated to the other side, watching the two fight with surprise in their eyes, they didn't know that Qin Ran's brain was flexible and capable of investigating cases, and his skills were not bad, seeing that the two were entangled, everyone didn't say that they hoped that Qin Ran would be able to clean up the gray-robed man and weaken Li Sheng's arrogance!

As soon as he fought, Qin Ran had already figured out the details of the gray-robed man, even if he had reservations and hidden, but according to the moves and routines, Qin Ran could be sure that he was Jiang first-class!

The two of them fought in Rongcheng.

Tonight, Jiang Yiyi's knife kicked Qin Ran away, neither of them used any weapons, they were close and shirtless, and after two moves, Jiang Yiyi couldn't reach Qin Ran's agile posture and ruthlessness. Qin Ran was in an irritable mood and didn't want to play tricks with him, Qin Ran approached him and grabbed his arm and twisted it, and there was a 'click' sound in the hall, and the gray-robed man's arm was actually removed for Qin Ran!

The gray-robed man refused to admit defeat, he endured the pain, pressed his right hand on his left arm, pulled it on his shoulder, and connected it again.

At this moment, Qin Ran turned around and walked around his back, she kicked him into the inner socket of his knee, and the gray-robed man fell down and ate.

Qin Ran's toe strength was just right, and he picked a calf tendon position, and the gray-robed man's hind legs were sore, and he couldn't get up for a while.

Seeing the embarrassment of the gray-robed man, everyone secretly applauded.

At this moment, the gray-robed man made a big counterattack, he sealed the blood in his lower legs, and got up in vain, he didn't know when there was an extra fan in his hand, the fan bone was like iron, and the tip of the fan was in the shape of an eagle's claw, and he attacked Qin Ran's neck artery at a very strange angle.

Qin Ran leaned back, and his soft waist folded down ninety degrees.

When he folded down, Qin Ran came to a flat river, turned sideways, swept straight with his horizontal legs, and the gray-robed man couldn't give in and almost fell again.

He felt that Qin Ran's skills had improved a lot compared to the last time in Rongcheng, his expression changed, and the gray-robed man rushed towards Qin Ran, but he didn't make a move, but waved the fan, and the snow-white powder was scattered all over the sky.

Qin Ran covered her mouth and nose, ran to the pillar next to her, and with a kick, she was already five steps away from the gray-robed man.

As soon as the fan passed, the powder drifted along the wind to several ministers who were a little closer, and the ministers immediately felt that it was difficult to breathe, and they all fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and bleeding from seven holes!

Qin Ran's eyes narrowed, he picked up a cloak on the ground and fanned it hard, the gray-robed man flew to the right, Qin Ran threw the cloak to the right, her figure flashed, she appeared on his back, dropped her fist and slapped again, the gray-robed man, that is, Jiang Yiyi, vomited three feet of blood on the spot!

Jiang Yiyi's heart pulse was broken, he rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground.

"Bang-" Li Sheng on the dragon chair suddenly clapped his hands.

Qin Ran raised his eyes and met Li Sheng's unpredictable eyes, only to see that he was very obedient.

"Qin Sicheng's performance is very exciting, but don't forget whose territory you are tossing, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, if you don't give me face now, I don't need to save face for you." Li Sheng suddenly showed a gloomy smile again and said. "Come, take her down, and if she resists, ...... slaughtered Zheng Shangshu's son, the two intended to rebel, and the prince removed the two for the saint. ”

"Li Sheng, you dare!" If it weren't for his son's stubborn holding, Zheng Ze would have jumped up and rushed up to beat him.

"Do it."

"Stop!" At this time, another man entered the temple.

Everyone looked back, and there was surprise in their eyes that could not be hidden.

Li Sheng glanced at the gate of the palace, as if he was smiling, as if he had seen a stupid sheep in the mouth of a tiger. "Zheng Guogong is here?"

"Guogong!" On weekdays, the ministers led by Zheng Guogong and Song Shikun hurriedly walked to his side.

Song Shikun looked at the situation in the hall, walked towards Qin Ran, and asked in a low voice. "Qin Ran, how are you? Knowing that you and Tianxian are in the palace, I entered the palace, you don't have to act rashly, he doesn't dare to do anything to me. ”

Song Shikun saw that Li Sheng was already sitting on the dragon chair, and immediately filled his chest with anger and accused. "Li Sheng, where is the Holy One? You don't want to deceive the people here, you won't listen to your words, we want to see the Holy One! If you kill us all, the court is paralyzed, what is the use of your unjust throne? At this time, Mongolia and Qin started a war against our Tang Dynasty, but you took advantage of the fire to rob here, are you confident that you have won the country and can defend it? ”

Li Sheng didn't want to waste his tongue, it was still growing tonight.

Song Shikun didn't go to the early dynasty to recuperate at home a few days ago, and after discussing with Concubine Yu, he didn't let him enter the palace, lest some ministers see him and have a backbone. Now that he has thrown himself into the net, he is asking the king of Yama to accept him, and he can't complain about him Li Sheng's cruelty!

"Do it, take down Song Shikun and Qin Ran!"

Suddenly, the scene was chaotic.

Qin Ran can protect himself, but the palace is basically full of Wenchen who can't resist, Song Shikun is not bad, but he is no longer young after all, in the face of waves of soldiers, he gradually has more than enough strength, and at the same time, several officials who tried to resist unfortunately fell.

The sword and sword shadow in the hall, blood splashed everywhere.

Qin Ran protected Zheng Ze and the others, suddenly, a soldier's knife was aimed at the injured Song Shikun, Qin Ran's body moved, who knew that the other two had planned to deal with her, and slashed her left back, the knife cut through a large piece of clothing, the white skin was immediately soaked in blood, and the wound was as thick as a little finger!

deliberately slowed down half a step, the soldier's knife was on her neck, and Qin Ran shook the knife and fell to the ground, making a restrained gesture.

Qin Ran entered the palace to find Song Tianxian, not to rescue the minister of this house, as Song Shikun said, Li Sheng will not kill everyone, whoever supports his head to resist him, he will destroy it, as long as he endures the anger for a while and makes an obedient appearance, Li Sheng will not take anyone's life at will.

However, for Qin Ran, things will not be so simple.

Li Sheng originally resented Qin Ran, if she was honest and didn't resist at first, Li Sheng would be suspicious and take strict precautions against her, if she was injured in the fight, and let Li Sheng think that he could hold Qin Ran and threaten Qin Ran with the lives of his courtiers, then she would have the opportunity to find Song Tianxian.

Therefore, seeing that Qin Ran was injured and bleeding nonstop, Li Sheng was obviously in a much happier mood.

…………

…………

The night was late, but the snow did not stop, but fell heavier and heavier.

Qin Ran, as the 'number one dangerous element', was detained alone in the side hall, which was originally a place for the saint to rest and drink tea, with a tea room on the left side of the hall and a temporary lunch break on the right.

The side hall is not big, Qin Ran stepped over the threshold and stepped into the hall, and the armored soldiers behind her immediately surrounded the entire side hall and guarded it tightly.

Seeing this, Qin Ran was not worried about her situation, with her ability, she couldn't escape quietly, Qin Ran's father and mother and others also left with Cheng He, the Cangsong Pavilion represented by Maple Leaf Qianzhuang has existed for more than a hundred years, there must be a way to send them out, now, Qin Ran's only worry is how to find Song Tianxian.

Before noon, the person who came to spread the news that Song Tianxian entered the palace was Zhilin, which means that Song Tianxian should be with the saint, he failed to leave the palace, did he encounter something irresistible?

For example, Li Sheng threatened him with a saint?

Qin Ran was thinking about it, someone entered the side hall.
