Chapter 290: Disaster Arises, King Qin Rebels
A few years later, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and those who experienced the catastrophe in Beijing recalled the situation of that year, and still felt a chill down their backs, and at the same time couldn't understand why such a terrible thing happened when that day was obviously a good day and an auspicious day that Qin Tian had monitored.
They still remember that day was the day of King Zhao's wedding, and the whole capital seemed to be in full bloom, and everyone seemed to have abandoned their usual grudges and estrangements, and they were happy from the bottom of their hearts in the face of the beautiful and benevolent prince in auspicious clothes on the white horse.
It was only later, at that moment when King Zhao visited the hall, I don't know that many officers and soldiers came from there, and they rushed into the newly built Zhao Wang's mansion......
Inside the Fengxi Palace.
Mo Ziyu gently slapped the Queen Mother's legs, and asked with a smile: "Today is King Zhao's wedding, won't the Queen Mother go to watch the ceremony?"
"It's good to have his father and mother here, and the mourning family won't join in the fun. The Queen Mother said happily, "Speaking of which, the mourning family hasn't been out of the palace for many years, and they don't bother to move." Catch Ming'er King Zhao and bring his princess to give tea to the mourning family! This time flies so fast, the grandchildren and granddaughters of the mourning family are all married one by one, and the mourning family is also here, but you can see that they are all married one by one, safe and stable, and harmonious, even if the mourning family goes underground, it is blind. ”
"Don't say unlucky things about the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely live a long life, you still have to watch the prince get married!" Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, "The prince went to King Zhao's Mansion to watch the ceremony, that child likes to be lively, since Concubine Su went, I haven't seen him laugh well for a long time." I just hope that he can open his heart as soon as possible, and he is still that lovely and lively son. ”
The boy became more and more composed. The Queen Mother said, "Do you hate Your Majesty?"
"What do you mean by the Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother squinted her eyes slightly: "Have you ever thought that maybe you will not be able to leave the palace for the rest of your life?"
"The concubine will accompany the Queen Mother for a lifetime. Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, "The concubine will not hate Your Majesty, Your Majesty can't worry about anything with a concubine, if something really happens to the Queen Mother, it must be Your Majesty He has some last resort." ”
The Queen Mother looked outside: "At this time, you have already started to worship the church, right?"
The palace maid brought a cup of hot tea, Mo Ziyu took it from the tray, and it was low to the queen mother's hand, at this time, she suddenly felt a palpitation, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground at once, and the tea broke to the ground.
The surrounding palace people immediately knelt down in panic.
Mo Ziyu also knelt down and pleaded: "The Queen Mother forgives her sins!"
"It's not a big deal, get up!" the Queen Mother smiled gently, "Are you injured?"
Mo Ziyu shook his head: "Empress Dowager Xie cares, she is not injured, Fang is the concubine made a mistake!"
She touched her chest, her heart was still beating suddenly, what was the reason for the unexplained palpitations just now? Could it be that something was about to happen?
Zhao Wangfu.
This Zhao Wangfu has just been repaired, everywhere is still new, because His Majesty looked at Zhao Wang, so this Zhao Wangfu is also very luxurious, carved beams and paintings, splendid. Now because of the newlywed, there are lights everywhere and festive.
Emperor Xuan and Concubine Li sat at the top, waiting for the most important moment together with the guests below.
It's just that compared to the expectations and joy of Emperor Xuan and Concubine Li, the mood of some ministers who already knew what would happen today is much more complicated, and life and death are all bet on it.
"The auspicious time has come, the newlyweds will worship the church!"
I saw King Zhao, who was dressed in a wedding dress and was particularly energetic, holding the red silk, and the other end of the red silk was the bride. The two came to the lobby step by step, ready to worship and get married.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Second worship high hall!"
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
Just as the wedding ceremony was about to end, a bloodied city protector broke in and shouted, "Oh no, Your Majesty!
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar!
"What!" Emperor Xuan's face changed drastically, "Where is this rebel! Where is the Imperial Forest Army, where is the City Protector?"
"Your Majesty, the Dongcheng Army has rebelled!" said the bloodied soldier, "The Xicheng soldiers are resisting, I'm afraid it won't be long before they come, the rebels have come in the direction of Zhao Wangfu, Your Majesty hurry back to the palace!"
Emperor Xuan did not hesitate, and immediately led everyone to rush back to the palace, but at this time, some rebels had already arrived at King Zhao's mansion. These people are not the Imperial Forest Army in the capital, nor are they the guards of the city guards, but the guards of the Qin Palace's palace and the homes of the ministers who participated in the rebellion, which adds up to thousands of people!
And Emperor Xuan went out of the palace this time, without bringing too many guards, plus the soldiers of King Zhao's mansion, there were only hundreds of people!
"Father, mother, you leave through the back door, go back to the palace first, and the sons will break off! As long as the sons are still alive, they will definitely not let the rebels hurt the father and the mother concubine!" Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said.
"Son!" Concubine Li was shocked, "You don't know martial arts, how can you resist the rebels, let's go back to the palace with the concubine!"
Liu Yu glanced at his parents firmly, then pulled out the knife of the guards on the side, and shouted, "Follow me!"
"Son!" Concubine Li shouted, wanting to rush out, but Emperor Xuan stopped her, and he said coldly, "Let's go back to the palace first, you don't want to trouble him!"
He doesn't have time to think about King Zhao being safe now, he must return to the palace as soon as possible, and transfer the Imperial Forest Army to save people, if he delays for a moment, King Zhao will be more dangerous!
Emperor Xuan, under the escort of the guards around him, immediately returned to the palace with Concubine Li and Princess Zhao, who had just married, and there were a number of ministers behind him.
On the way back to the palace in embarrassment, the generals and their entourage who followed them suddenly attacked, killed many ministers, pointed at Emperor Xuan and said: "Your Majesty, now that the general situation has been decided, Your Majesty can cede the throne to King Qin, so that more killings can be avoided." ”
"Even you betrayed me, I never thought of it!" Emperor Xuan didn't expect that some of these people would have taken refuge in Liu Ling a long time ago, he still underestimated Liu Ling, his heart was surging, but his face was sneering, "Dream! My throne will never be given up to the rebellious ministers and thieves, if he wants to, see if he has the ability to take it!"
"Then Your Majesty blames your subordinates for offending, up!" a military general shouted, and then raised his sword and attacked Emperor Xuan.
The surrounding guards desperately protected each other: "Your Majesty, go quickly, leave it to your subordinates here!"
Emperor Xuan wanted to fight to the death with these rebellious ministers and thieves, but his reason told him that now was not the time to be rash, so he continued to rush to the direction of the capital with a few dependents. And the traitors were in pursuit, only to see that one man had already chased after him on a horse, and several people poured out in front of him, these people were extremely vicious, and killed people when they saw them, and the people in the streets were constantly being poisoned by them, and there were screams, rivers of blood, and confusion.
Some of them saw the figure of Emperor Xuan and shouted: "The emperor Lao'er is there, the king of Qin has an order, and whoever captures the emperor's Lao'er alive will be crowned king!"
For a while, everyone shouted towards Emperor Xuan.
Just when Emperor Xuan was embattled by the enemy on his back, he saw that the long knife in the hand of the person chasing after him on horseback was about to slash down towards Emperor Xuan, at this moment, a long arrow directly pierced the sky, stabbed the man's chest, the man fell off the horse, Emperor Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the person who came to the rescue, it was Liu Changqing, he also maintained the posture of bending the bow and shooting arrows, and a few traces of perseverance and fear appeared on his green face, obviously for the first killing, his heart was shocked!
However, he quickly reacted, dismounted and ran to Emperor Xuan's side a few steps, and said: "Don't be afraid, Grandpa Huang has come to the rescue! These people are all soldiers of King Qi's Mansion, and they will definitely be able to escort Grandpa Huang back to the palace safely!"
"Okay, it's my good grandson!" Emperor Xuan touched Liu Changqing's face, "It's like your father!"
Liu Changqing also watched the ceremony in the palace of King Zhao, after hearing that there were rebels, his reaction was extremely fast, and he expected that the emperor's grandfather must be going back to the palace to transfer the imperial forest army, but he may not be able to go back safely on the way, so he immediately thought about going back to move the rescue soldiers! There was no time to greet Emperor Xuan, he took advantage of his small stature, and immediately climbed out of King Zhao's dog cave, and rushed all the way back to King Qi's mansion, thinking that the princess explained the situation.
Although Liu Changqing and the princess have hatred and estrangement, they are not ambiguous at all on this major issue of right and wrong, and immediately counted all the soldiers in the palace, and Liu Changqing took them to the rescue!
The princess also understands in her heart that now that the prince is not in the capital, if His Majesty has three longs and two shorts, so that King Qin can control the situation, then the Qi Wangfu will also be finished!
The soldiers of King Qi's Mansion all came back from the battlefield, they had never seen any battles, they were all brave and invincible, and they fought their way out of these people who were chasing after them, and sent Emperor Xuan back to the palace!
After returning to the palace, Emperor Xuan immediately ordered the Imperial Forest Army to go to support King Zhao!
At the same time, the Beicheng Army was ordered to quell the rebellion together with the Nancheng Army. He also sent an envoy to order all the surrounding garrisons to go to the capital to escort King Qin!
It has been premeditated for a long time to make this rebellion to cause a rebellion in the city guards, to allow those high-ranking generals to participate, to let those ministers hand over all the guards at home, and to be able to place so many people in the capital.
It's just that Emperor Xuan couldn't figure out what means Zhao Ling used to unite so many people from different camps to serve him at the same time!
Emperor Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, he underestimated Zhao Ling's ambition, he knew that he would be so bold, he shouldn't have given him a chance in the first place!
