Chapter 53: Twists and Turns
"Now the plan is to control the palace first, and at the worst of all, it can cut off the connection between His Majesty and Chen Shou, so as to prevent him from being bewitched by Chen Shou. We will hide in the palace first, and the imperial city of Da Nei will not be broken by leisure, and it will be delayed until the arrival of the army. ”
Wei Yunse nodded and said, "This is a great good, I will send someone to summon Shi Chao, the commander of the Inner Guard Forbidden Army, to come." He escorted us into the palace, this matter is not entirely bad, as long as it is successful, it will definitely be able to clear the side of the king. You will follow me into the palace, do not hesitate, we will work together to share peace in the future. ”
The officials present did not have time to surrender, and at this time, they could only follow Wei Yunse all the way to the dark.
"Enxiang, it's too late, in my opinion, it's better for us to escort them directly at home, rush to the imperial city, and defect to Shi Chao."
Wei Yunse gritted his teeth and said, "It's the only way to do it." ”
Among the officials present, the lowest was also the third grade, and in the past, even the most inconspicuous ones walked sideways in Bianliang.
At this time, they were hugged, and Wu Yang rushed out of the Wei Mansion and rushed to the imperial city.
On the streets, Jin Yuwei's people were searching everywhere, and they were all stunned when they saw so many people coming out of the Wei Mansion.
"Stop!"
Wei Yunse said loudly: "I raised you for twenty years, why did you come?" ”
The generals of the Wei family responded to the promise, raised their weapons one after another, and rushed over.
Jin Yuwei had few people, and he was taken away by this momentum, so he hurriedly took refuge through the laneway, and then went to the rear to inform his own officials.
On the streets of Bianliang, there were already few people, and they all hid at home to watch the excitement.
There are also some clear streams, hiding at home, and they can only scold that both sides are traitors, but they can't help it.
When Chen Shou received the news, he couldn't pretend to be sick anymore, got up and put on soft armor, covered with an official uniform, and came to the outer courtyard.
Zhao Hong waited here with the people of the Chen Mansion, and Chen Shou said loudly: "Zhang He, you take the official's family and go to the summer palace." The summer palace is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a Taoist temple of mine, hiding armor and weapons, and it is not a problem to keep it for ten days and a half months. Zhao Hong, you come with me, let's go and kill Wei Yunse! ”
Zhao Hong's eyes flashed, without the slightest fear, and he hugged his fists and said, "I will open the way for adults." ”
Almost all the people in Chen's mansion were dispatched, leaving no one behind.
The city is temporarily under their control, and there are no people in ambush on the road, and when they arrive at the summer palace, they are on the high mountains, cliffs on three sides, and the mountain roads are rugged, and no one will bother to fight at all.
Chen Shou came outside, and the horses on the street were shouting and making a mess.
"Raise the banner of Jin Yuwei, gather the whole city, and chase Wei Yunse!"
A guard with his arms up, half bare-chested on a cold day, holding a large banner of the Golden Feather Guard, stood on the carriage.
Behind the car, there was also a big man, holding a double hammer and beating a drum. The Golden Feather Guards along the way, as well as the soldiers in apricot yellow robes, all gathered and soon formed a long line.
"They're really fast!" Chen Shou was a little anxious in his heart, he didn't dare to be sure of Shi Chao's loyalty.
In this situation, it is doubtful that he will still be on his side.
Under the imperial city, Wei Yunse and others had already arrived in advance, and he stood outside and shouted loudly: "Chen Shou rebelled!" Chen Shou rebelled, I am Prime Minister Wei Yunse, open the palace door quickly, I want to see Your Majesty. ”
There was no movement on the city tower, Wei Yunse's hands and feet were sweating, and his family would protect a group of officials.
The officials present and the guards at home also came one after another when they heard the news, and there were more and more people outside the palace.
Wei Yunse shouted loudly outside the palace gate, his voice was a little hoarse, and there was finally movement in the city.
The drawbridge was slowly lowered, the gate opened, and the hearts of the officials were finally relaxed.
There was already a shouting sound in the distance, not only did the drumming not stop, but it was even more deafening, Chen Shou followed the sound of this drum, his heart was surging, and he unconsciously urged the horse under his crotch.
"No, my lord, the palace is open!" Zhao Hong shouted loudly.
Chen Shou's heart tightened, is this internal guard forbidden army still anti-water?
He took his subordinates and rushed to the palace gate, stretched out his hand, and Li Sanniu behind him came out of the crowd and said loudly: "Shi Chao, Uncle Zhongyong is here, open the door quickly!" ”
In the low wall above the city tower, strong bows and crossbows were densely packed, and no one moved.
Suddenly, a man stood up and threw something down.
Li Sanniu stepped forward to provoke, her eyes widened, and she turned around and said, "My lord, it's the head of Shi Chao, the commander of the Internal Guard Forbidden Army!" ”
Chen Shou quickly calculated in his heart, what the hell is the situation, and suddenly an arrow was released on the head of the city.
Jin Yuwei hurriedly escorted Chen Shou to retreat, but Li Sanniu couldn't dodge and was shot in the thigh.
Fortunately, his horse was Xiliang Dama, and although he suffered a few arrows, he still desperately protected his master and escaped.
Chen Shou flicked his horsewhip and stared at the palace, "Who is it?" ”
"My lord, what should I do?" Li Sanniu pulled out the arrow, bandaged it casually, and asked loudly.
Chen Shou pondered for a moment, and said in a condensed voice: "The situation here is unknown, you must not rush in, the west gate is in the hands of the imperial horse supervisor, we will enter the palace from the west gate and meet the godfather." ”
No matter what others do, Miao De will not betray himself, and what happened in the palace will not be known until he goes in.
---
In the palace, Wei Yunse and the others entered the first gate, but were stopped outside the second gate.
When he entered the palace, he thought that Shi Chao must have fallen to his side, and he was full of confidence in his heart.
"Open the door, Shi Chao, let Shi Chao come to see me."
The second palace door slowly opened, but what appeared was not Shi Chao, but the yellow umbrella cover, a group of palace eunuchs and black-clothed guards surrounded by honor guards.
Everyone thought that Emperor Gengyuan was in person, and their hearts were even more worried, and some people couldn't help but tremble their legs and knelt on the ground.
The crowd dispersed, and a middle-aged man came out, his eyes were a little black, wearing a black python robe, Wei Yunse trembled, it turned out to be him!
Standing in front of the hundred officials, it was Zhao Zhe, the prince of Zhanghua.
"Shi Chao and Chen Shou have been killed by Lone, so there is no need to panic."
No need to panic? All the officials present trembled with fright, what is going on, could it be that Prince Zhang Hua has already rebelled first?
Wei Yunse's eyes rolled, and he said prostrately: "It's good that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down, Chen Shou has reversed, gathered a group of rabble, and is hunting and killing Zhongliang outside the palace." We are all willing to obey the dispatch of His Highness, kill the rebels, and uphold the court. ”
Zhao Zhe couldn't see the slightest expression on his face, all along, he was sick and couldn't walk.
At this time, he stood straight, and the fool also knew that the prince had been pretending to be sick all along, and he had endured it for so many years, was it just for today?
Wei Yunse secretly wiped his sweat and broke into the palace by himself, and it seemed that he didn't know whether it was a curse or a blessing at this time.
Zhao Zhe finally spoke, he cleared his throat, and his voice was cold, "Chen Shou is a dog thief, bullying the king, obscene and filthy court, the crime cannot be punished!" ”
