Chapter 336: Palace Change (1)
Chapter 336
A hint of fish belly white is revealed in the sky.
There was a large-scale shift change at the palace gate, and the shift changer showed the token and began the handover.
A moment after the shift change, the second prince set off from Beicheng with 2,000 men. The iron rider stepped on the stone road, galloping all the way, making a sound like the thunder of war drums, and soon appeared in front of the Suzaku Gate.
When the guards of the city saw the banner of the second prince, they immediately opened the city gate.
Two thousand men and horses entered the first palace gate unimpeded.
The guards at the second palace gate couldn't help but be shocked when they saw a large number of people approaching, and immediately entered a state of preparedness for battle.
"Stop!" The guards at the palace gate shouted.
However, the visitor had no intention of stopping.
"Holy Lord, please also ask the second prince to disarm and enter the palace!" The guards blocked the way with a cold face, the current situation is very clear, the second prince is going to rebel, these guards have been temporarily replaced by the prince's people, so naturally they don't have a good face for the second prince.
The two sides were tense, and some ministers who had just arrived at the palace gate were afraid of being affected by the pond fish, so they stopped the carriage from a distance and watched.
The second prince, Zhao Wok, sat on the horse, his tiger back straight, and looked condescendingly at the people who stood in the way.
A horse paced out behind him, and the general on the horse took out his token, "Change shifts." ”
The other party is indeed showing a regular token, but they are the people of the second prince, once the shift is changed, the palace gate will fall into the control of the second prince, in an extraordinary period, how can the guards be willing to hand over control?
And Zhao Wei is just making a gesture, and he has no intention of being able to easily control the second door, "Stop me and refuse to change shifts, what's your intention?!" ”
He shouted, "I have my father's edict, who dares to stop me!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the long sword was unsheathed, and before the guard could react, blood splattered three feet.
This move was like a signal, and the two sides met each other and fought together.
One hurried back to report the news.
In the dragon hall, the prince stood in the hall in filial piety, his eyes were red, and many civil and military ministers had comforted him after worshipping.
"Report-" The guards rushed to the outside of the hall and arched their hands, "Your Highness, the second prince has brought people in, and he has arrived outside the Baohua Gate." ”
There was silence in the hall.
"Hmph, how dare he!" The prince sneered, and then raised his voice and said, "Check all and summon Tianwu to fight!" ”
Tianwu is the name of the forbidden army, divided into the south camp and the north camp, and the north camp army led by the second prince is subordinate to the Tianwu army.
"Yes!" They all checked and received orders, and went out to order the battle.
The old eunuch who had been kneeling in front of the coffin slowly stood up, his eyebrows snow-white, "Your Highness." ”
The prince turned around, his face softened.
"This is the crane control order, the saint has gone, and it should be kept by the new king." The old eunuch took out a bag from his sleeve and handed it to the prince.
Hua Zaifu's afterglow swept past Da Sima, and the two of them glanced at each other quickly, tacitly, and neither of them made any moves.
"Is there an edict from the Holy One?" Someone asked.
The prince glanced at the man coldly.
The old eunuch said, "The saint is a great line, since the crown prince is on the throne, does anyone object?" ”
Everyone knows the identity of this old eunuch, he has served the previous generation of emperors since he was a child, and then served this generation of emperors, and has a pivotal position in this palace.
The person who asked the question suddenly broke into a cold sweat, "Your Majesty has no objections, please let Your Highness know it." ”
"You have no objection to the lonely Zhilu Dao." The crown prince's gaze slowly swept over the ministers in the palace, "People who really disagree will not be as busy sending them to death as you are." ”
Su Min flew up, and the hall was silent.
Feng Shi broke the silence, "Your Highness has the crane control order, as long as the order is given, the crane control army will receive the order." ”
The crown prince often has access to court secrets, so he knows more about the crane army than the second prince, he knows that the strength of the crane army is not as good as before, so he does not put too much hope on this unstable force, but it is a symbol of status, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, only the emperor can control the crane, so at this time holding this small token, the prince still can't help the excitement in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face.
An Jiu and Chu Dingjiang held back their breath and hid in the side hall.
An Jiu saw the prince standing in the center of the crowd through the crack in the door, his noble and graceful body, he couldn't see how foolish he was in private, and even the calmness between his gestures made people feel an inexplicable sense of trust.
An Jiu thought to himself, regardless of his talent, this one by one is quite enough to be an emperor!
However, her attention did not linger on the prince for long, and she was soon attracted by the white-haired old eunuch next to her.
The old eunuch's eyes were deep, introverted, and he looked like he was already old, but he didn't see the old age of the wind and candle in his actions. An Jiu knew that he was a master of the Transformation Realm hidden deep in the Inner Palace......
Inevitably startled the snake, An Jiu was inconvenient to use mental power to investigate, and she could only observe so much on the surface, so she quickly looked away. After looking around the temple, I finally found a familiar figure in the corner.
Elder Zhi was at least ten years younger than Feng Shi, but his body was as thin as a dead branch, and he looked older than Feng Shi. (To be continued......)
