Gong Yingjie was tossing and turning because of the day's events, and a black shadow suddenly broke in silently.
Sitting up suddenly, Gong Yingjie stared at the visitor vigilantly and whispered, "Who are you?" What are you going to do when you break into the room of this son in the middle of the night? The hand behind his back quietly reached under the pillow and grasped the dagger hidden there.
Once the comer is not good, he will never let the comeder's conspiracy succeed even if he fights to the death, although he doesn't want to die yet, and he still wants to make a comeback one day.
Could it be the killer sent by the Nine Princesses?
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was wrong, and the ninth princess hit him hard during the day, almost ruining all his hopes, but she didn't say that she wanted him to die.
Even if the Ninth Princess wants to get the evidence he brought back from Amu Gulang, she won't kill him now, after all, he is dead, and if the Ninth Princess can't get the evidence, it will have an immeasurable negative impact on the emperor and the Ninth Princess, and the Ninth Princess shouldn't be so stupid.
So who would want to put him to death?
The man in black walked a few steps away from the bed and stopped, and said in a low voice, "Subordinate Dark Seven was ordered to come and rescue the prince and leave. ”
Gong Yingjie was overjoyed, but after encountering this upheaval, he became extremely suspicious, you must know that this is a heavily guarded palace, even if this person's martial arts are strong, it is impossible to easily avoid the patrolling Janissaries sneaking in, but his face does not show any discoloration, he got out of bed in his clothes, put on his shoes, held the dagger tightly in his hand behind his back, and stared at the man in black: "Whose order are you on?" ”
"The subordinates are on the orders of the prince......"
Before he finished speaking, Gong Yingjie's body moved, and he instantly came to the side of Dark Seven, and the cold dagger was horizontally across Dark Seven's neck.
"Nonsense! My father is dead, so how can he order you to come and save my son? Say! Whose orders are you under your orders? Otherwise, this son of the world will end up with you! He knew that his father was sick, but he never believed that his father died so soon, and he died at the hands of his grandmother!
"The subordinates don't dare to lie, the subordinates did come to rescue the prince on the orders of the prince." Dark Seven said calmly: "Since the prince left Jiuyuan County, the prince has been relieved, so he ordered General Lei to arrange for his subordinates to go to the capital to protect the prince, before leaving, General Lei also handed over a token to his subordinates, saying that the prince will understand when he sees it." As he spoke, he took out a token and handed it to Gong Yingjie.
While Dark Seven was talking, Gong Yingjie always stared at Dark Seven's eyes, and didn't find a trace of weakness, but he also believed a little, but the dagger across Dark Seven's neck was not returned, but he just stretched out his left hand to take the token in Dark Seven's hand.
After carefully examining it for a while, until it was determined that it was the token that his father had mobilized the secret guard, Gong Yingjie believed that Dark Seven was his own person who came to rescue him, took back the dagger and put it in the scabbard, looked at Dark Seven and said: "I was offended just now, please don't be surprised, this son has no choice but to do it." ”
"The subordinates are terrified." Dark Seven urged in a low voice: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, and I also ask the prince to leave as soon as possible." ”
"Wait!"
Dark Seven looked at Gong Yingjie puzzled: "The prince ......"
Turning back to the bed and sitting down, Gong Yingjie played with the dagger in his hand and said meaningfully: "Since you rushed to the capital later, why didn't you appear until this time?" The palace is heavily guarded, and how did you manage not to alarm the Praetorian Guards to come in? ”
"Hui Shizi" Something flashed away in the eyes of the dark seven, so fast that Gong Yingjie didn't notice it: "When the subordinates rushed to Tianma Town day and night, the prince had already left with Wu Anbo, and the subordinates didn't know the route taken by the prince, so they had to rush directly to the capital;
As soon as his subordinates arrived in the capital, they heard that the whereabouts of the prince had been leaked and he was imprisoned by the imperial court, and Wu Anbo and Pingyang Bo were also imprisoned in the prison;
The subordinates tried every means to enter the palace to rescue the prince, but the palace was heavily guarded, and the subordinates not only did not find out the specific location of the imprisoned prince, but also lost a lot of people;
In desperation, his subordinates could only hide their whereabouts and find another way, and finally spent a lot of money to buy off Dai Kun, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, and it happened that Dai Kun was on duty tonight, so he covered his subordinates and others to come in to rescue the son. ”
"After the beheading of the former Praetorian Guard commander Wu Kai, the Praetorian Guard was under the command of Situ Jingyu, Situ Jingyu has always governed the army strictly, how dare Dai Kun, as the deputy commander, accept money and release the son of this world privately? Isn't Dai Kun worried that once his deeds are lost, he will be connected to the nine clans? "Gong Yingjie always felt that tonight's events were too strange.
Dark Seven lowered his head and said: "The prince doesn't know, Dai Kun is a good gambler by nature, as long as he is not on duty, he will go to the gambling house to gamble a few hands, but he has bad luck and has long been in debt, but Situ Jingyu is strict in governing the army, even if Dai Kun is the deputy commander, he usually has no oil and water to fish, and his subordinates gave him 10,000 taels of gold, which is enough for him to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life, and also promised that after the matter is completed, he and his family will fly away and will not implicate him, so he readily agreed." ”
"I see." The doubts in Gong Yingjie's heart suddenly disappeared.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the gate of the Ice Spring Palace, four black-clothed people immediately greeted them, and nodded to Dark Seven to indicate that the two guards guarding the door had been resolved.
Looking back at the Ice Spring Palace, where he had lived for more than a month, Gong Yingjie, who was also wearing a night robe, exuded bloodthirsty killing intent and hatred in his dark and deep eyes, and then under the escort of the dark seven or five people, he walked through the green path outside the door, bypassed the pavilions and pavilions, and quietly came to the inner city gate Chengtian Gate in the northeast of the palace.
Dai Kun, who was looking left and right, saw the arrival of the six people, and immediately took out a token and asked the guards to open the door and let the six people leave.
The gate closed again, and dozens of black-clothed people waiting outside the door surrounded one after another, and then escorted Gong Yingjie to the outer city gate.
"The palace is heavy, how can you allow rebels such as Er to trespass, and they also want to rob the court felons!"
As a clear voice sounded, the lights suddenly brightened all around, and countless Praetorian Guards with torches and blades emerged from three sides, quickly surrounding Gong Yingjie and the others on three sides.
On the front, Qingyun in a light blue dress stood proudly, and her expression was a little difficult to see in the swaying firelight, but Gong Yingjie and the others clearly felt that she was laughing, and it was an extremely cold and ironic laugh, because an invisible cold pressure hit them head-on.
And on Qingyun's side, Mu Xue's green eyes flashed with a chilling glow, Yun Fei and others in purple clothes, and Situ Jingyu in silver and white Praetorian Guard clothes all stared at Gong Yingjie and dozens of other rebels.
Before Gong Yingjie could say anything, he heard the sound of the city gate opening behind him, turned around, and saw Dai Kun leading a group of Praetorian Guards and the Praetorian Guards on three sides to form a siege.
Staring straight at Qingyun, a trace of complicated emotions crossed Gong Yingjie's eyes: "The Ninth Princess is really scheming!" ”
In this case, how did Jinggong Yingjie not understand, as early as when he left Jiuyuan County, the ninth princess calculated everything, first deliberately let him come to Beijing to lure out those who were involved with them, and after he was imprisoned, he expected that someone would come to rescue him, so he arranged for Dai Kun to act in a play to deceive Dark Seven and others, and deliberately destroyed all his hopes during the day today, forcing him to strengthen his determination to leave, and then asked Dai Kun to inform Dark Seven that they would come tonight, and the ninth princess had already arranged a big net to catch turtles in an urn, and it was really a deep scheming.
Qingyun Qingling said: "If your father and son have been keeping to themselves, the royal family will naturally ensure that your children and grandchildren will be prosperous and rich for generations, but your father and son are not only grateful to Dade, but the jackal's wild delusion is making waves, and now you are in prison, but you are still delusional to escape and want to make a comeback, in the final analysis, all this is your own blame and blame others!" ”
Gong Yingjie's expression was distorted when he heard this, no matter how prosperous and rich their father and son were, in the final analysis, they were just royal slaves, and grandma told his father and him since he was a child that they were the real princes and grandsons, and taught them to do whatever it took to regain what belonged to them.
It's just that he also understands that the current situation is fundamentally man-made swords, I am fish and meat, the ninth princess gave an order, and the surrounding Praetorian Guards fired thousands of arrows, even if they were strong in martial arts, even if they fought hard, they couldn't rush out of the palace.
He didn't want to die, let alone be shot as a hedgehog, the only way was to surrender, anyway, the ninth princess didn't dare to kill him if she had any scruples, at least not now, so it would buy him time to plan again.
As long as he persists, I believe that one day he will leave here, and when he comes back again, he will be the emperor who is high up and holds the power to kill all people!
took out the dagger in his arms and threw it to the ground, Gong Yingjie stretched out his hands and stepped forward: "I surrender." ”
"Shizi, no!" Before Qingyun could speak, Dark Seven had already lost his voice and exclaimed, "We must not give up easily until the end of the day!" ”
Gong Yingjie looked back at Dark Seven and the others: "The matter has come to this, you don't need to say more, you all put down your weapons." ”
Who knew that the rest of the black-clothed people were indifferent, still clenching the blades in their hands and looking at Dark Seven.
"What? Do you want to disobey the commands of the Son? Gong Yingjie couldn't help but look pale.
"Since the prince is determined to do so, his subordinates will obey his orders."
Waving his hand at the others, Dark Seven took the lead and slowly put the long sword in his hand on the ground, just when Gong Yingjie's expression eased slightly, Dark Seven suddenly flew forward, his left hand clasped Gong Yingjie's right arm, and the long sword in his right hand that had not been put down was across Gong Yingjie's neck, and the rest of the people also held their blades around the two of them at the same time.
This sudden shock, except for Qingyun and Dark Seven and others, all the people did not know why.
"Dark Seven, what are you doing here?" Gong Yingjie's expression changed drastically.
I didn't want to ignore him at all, but just stared at Qingyun not far away and said coldly: "Let us go, otherwise I will kill him!" ”
"You are not my father's man!" Staring sideways at Dark Seven, Gong Yingjie asked sharply, "Who are you?" ”
