Prince Chun's Mansion.

Li Chengye put on his armor, rode his horse and stood on the white jade square, looking at the east of the city, there was a loud bang just now, which shocked the palace, Prince Chun summoned the tiger guards and the Fengwu battalion to stand by, and an old man in Tsing Yi who looked like a scholar in his fifties walked over quickly and said: "Lord, it will be too late if you don't send troops." ”

Prince Chun groaned slightly, and said: "The situation outside is not clear, so if you send troops so rashly, the defense in the palace is empty, in case of repeated conflicts with the Guanshan camp and the guards in the city, it will be cheaper than the thief." Or contact the forbidden army before sending troops, rest assured, there is a forbidden army, the palace is worry-free. ”

"However, Lord Wang, there have been two batches of tiger guards we sent to contact and no news has been sent back, and if we don't send troops at this time, I am afraid that the palace gate will change." The old man in Tsing Yi said urgently.

"Mr. Zhao, please don't be impatient, Cheng Ye will send someone over again." After saying that, Prince Chun was about to send guards to contact again.

Suddenly, a tiger guard galloped over, and before the horse stopped, the man flew to the ground, rolled over, knelt in front of Prince Chun and said, "Report! Lord Wang, Yu Taishi has already arrived at the palace gate, and the guards in the city are empty except for the west guard in the city. ”

"What!?" Prince Chun and the old man in Tsing Yi both changed their faces greatly, and the old man in Tsing Yi asked anxiously: "Where is the capital guard of the Chengxi Guard now?" ”

Hu Wei was stunned and said in a trembling voice: "They are all dead." ”

Prince Chun gasped and looked at the old man in Tsing Yi. The old man in Tsing Yi said urgently: "Lord Wang." ”

Prince Chun stabilized his mind and shouted, "Send troops to Suzaku." ”

"Yes." The tiger guard and the soldiers of the Fengwu Battalion shouted in unison, raised their swords on their horses, Prince Chun lifted the reins of the horse, and was the first to go out of the gate of the palace, and the old man in Tsing Yi sighed slightly and followed closely behind.

From Prince Chun's mansion to the palace gate, there is a long distance, even if the horse gallops and takes some time, wait for Prince Chun to come to Suzaku Street, where the flag is already covering the moon, hunting sounds. Prince Chun reined in his horses, and his tiger guards and Fengwu battalion bows and arrows were wound, and they all aimed at the soldiers in the square, and they just waited for the order to release the arrows.

At this time, the soldiers in the square suddenly divided one person and one horse and went straight to Prince Chun, the old man in Tsing Yi was busy drinking to stop the Tiger Guard and the soldiers of the Fengwu Battalion, and the person who came was ten steps away from Prince Chun, and saluted with his fists: "But Prince Chun?" ”

"Yes, let's get the same name." Prince Chun asked in a deep voice.

"The last general Qu Zhe, the general of the Guanshan camp Huaihua Lang, this is the order of the prince of the herd, please forgive the prince of the herd for not being able to come in person. The forbidden army participated in the rebellion, and now the palace has fallen into the hands of Yu Chengyun, please ask the prince to settle his soldiers on the west side of the square, and the king of Mu asked the prince to talk about the army. After saying that, he threw the token to Prince Chun.

Prince Chun took the token, and sure enough, it was the order of the king of herd, thought for a moment, and turned to the old man in Tsing Yi and said: "Mr. Zhao, you are here to lead the soldiers and horses, and act when you see the opportunity, I will go to the Chinese army to meet the king of herd." ”

"Yes, lord." The old man in Tsing Yi bowed slightly.

Prince Chun turned his horse's head, handed the token to the old man, and took two personal soldiers to the Chinese army with Captain Qu Zhe all the way. ”

"Yes, Chengwen, what's wrong?" Prince Chun was overjoyed when he saw Li Chengwen, and asked hurriedly.

As he spoke, the king of the herds greeted him, and the king of the herdsmen, Li Chengwen, was the youngest brother of Emperor Wanlong, more than thirty years old, born with a dignified appearance, dressed in military uniforms, and even more heroic.

"The situation is not good, the cavalry army has been reversed, and Li Chengru, the king of Jinan, was also bribed by Yu Chengyun in some way, opened the palace door, and now the palace is in Chengyun's hands, and the whereabouts of the imperial brother are unknown."

"Is there any news coming out of Changming Palace?"

"No, the palace gate is closed, the news inside can't be transmitted, and the news from the outside can't be transmitted in, this imperial city has become a dead place." Li Chengwen showed a murderous aura and said in a cold voice.

"Huh?" Li Chengye was taken aback and asked, "How is the traitor's strength?" ”

"There are more than 2,000 cavalry, nearly 5,000 forbidden troops, and nearly 8,000 private soldiers from the Taishi Mansion."

Li Chengye took a breath of cool air and said in shock: "So many? ”

"Yes, Brother Thirteen, the foolish brother said that the situation is not good." Li Chengwen sighed and said, "The number of soldiers and horses in my Guanshan camp is only 134,000, plus the Dingbei army of the thirteenth brother, it will be 15,000 at most, I am not afraid of a head-on battle, but if you want to attack the city, it will be a little insufficient." ”

Prince Chun also frowned, the palace door was closed, and he was at a loss, if he wanted to attack the city, there were no siege equipment, these soldiers and horses were no different from sending them to death, they could only be equivalent to taking the clouds to clear the palace, and then waiting for the opportunity to move.

Prince Chun raised his head and was about to discuss countermeasures with King Mu, but he saw that King Mu's expression was quite peculiar, just anxious, but not much worry, and then Li Chengye opened his mouth and asked, "Chengwen, when did you enter the city?" Can you know where the guards in the city are? According to what you just said, Duwei did not join the rebels, and now except for the west guard of the city, the Du Wei of the east and south of the city have disappeared, Chengwen, do you know the original reason? ”

Li Chengwen looked at Li Chengye with a look of surprise and said, "Thirteenth brother, don't you know? After speaking, Prince Chun shook his head, King Mu wanted to speak and stopped, and thought about it: "The Guanshan camp entered the city from the east gate of Zhuocheng, Brother Thirteen, you should hear a loud noise, that is, the sound of exploding the city gate, our cavalry entered the city, but it was still a step too late, and he did not intercept him before Chengyun entered the palace, let alone thought that Li Chengru really descended to Yu Chengyun, and Yu Chengyun took the lead. As for the one who blew up the city gates, it was the capital guard camp. ”

"Well, okay, Xuan Ci is clever and decisive, and he should be the leader of our Li family's next generation." Prince Chun nodded and said.

King Mu glanced at Prince Chun strangely, but did not speak.

At this time, I suddenly heard a loud sound from the east of the imperial city, and three ringing arrows were drawn out of the air, rising to more than fifty zhang and exploding, reflecting brilliantly in the moonlight. Li Chengwen raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "It's done." ”

Prince Chun felt slightly strange, and was about to ask what was done, when he saw Huaihualang, who had just led the way, rushed over Qu Zhe, and came back closely: "Two princes, the water gate on the east wall of the palace has been broken, and my infantry, shooting, tiger ben, and Yue cavalry have entered the palace, please show the prince." ”

"Okay," the shepherd laughed and shouted, "Where is Lord Xiao?" ”

"The subordinates are here." There was a sound from the Chinese army behind him, this voice was very familiar, Prince Chun turned his head in surprise, and sure enough, it was nine lives Xiao Bai died.

Xiao Baisheng nodded slightly at the two princes, flew on top of a totem, and shouted: "The generals will take the order!" ”

The king of the shepherd raised his breath on horseback and shouted: "Chengwen receives the order, please forgive Chengwen for the sin of not being able to pay full courtesy." ”

"Okay," Xiao Baisheng roared, suppressed all the noise in the field, and then unfolded the holy decree in his hand and said: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: I now order the king of Mu to raise troops to clear the king's side, quell the rebellion, the rebels will not be killed, the leading generals will be dismissed, demoted to concubines, and the rest of the generals will no longer be pursued, if they are obsessed, they will be punished by the nine clans." If I die, I will be succeeded by Prince Chun Li Chengye, and for the fourteenth generation of Dagan, all the traitors I met will be killed in front of the palace gate. ”

"Chengwen Ling, thank the emperor." The Shepherd King shouted violently, pulled out a long knife, and pointed at the palace gate, "Attack!" ”

The Guanshan battalion unsheathed the swords and guns, and slowly approached the main gate of the palace, Prince Chun was not surprised, and hurriedly signaled to his own soldiers, and ordered the northern army to also act with the Guanshan battalion, and the arrangements were appropriate, Prince Chun turned his head and exclaimed: "Seventeenth brother, what a trick to repair the plank road and secretly cross Chen Cang, it seems that the foolish brother is going to learn from you." ”

"Haha, thirteenth brother, don't make fun of me, in terms of marching and fighting, you are the first person in Dagan, how can I compare to you, these strategies have been arranged by the third brother, I just follow the script."

"Huh?" Li Chengye was stunned for a moment, but the situation was urgent, so he could only suppress the doubts in his stomach and follow the army towards the palace gate.

At this time, the sound of killing shouts in the palace is getting louder and louder, and it can be heard clearly outside the palace wall, the Guanshan camp and the Dingbei army marched to the range of bows and arrows, the king of Mu signaled the soldiers to stop, and Li Chengwen shouted: "The soldiers of the forbidden army listen to the order, the emperor has an order, and the surrenderer is reinstated. ”

"The soldiers of my Guanshan battalion have entered the imperial city, and it is only morning and evening that the palace gate is broken, if you are willing to surrender, my Prince Li Chengye guarantees that the officials will be reinstated, and those who capture Li Chengru alive will be promoted to the third level and rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, but if they insist on going their own way, their parents, wives and children will be punished in front of the palace gate, and the Northern Army will obey the order." As soon as King Mu's words fell, another majestic voice sounded in the Chinese army.

"Yes." More than 1,000 soldiers shouted in unison, and the palace gate forbidden army was silent for a while.

"This king has dozens of voices, if the city gate is not opened, you will go and arrest all the parents and relatives of the soldiers of the forbidden army, and those who resist will be killed. If you break this oath, it is like this sword. After speaking, Li Chengye took out the long sword of the soldier next to him, waved it upward, the internal force was everywhere, and the long sword broke in response.

"Yes," the Dingbei Army shouted in unison.

"One. Two. Echoing the voice of Prince Chun, the shouts of killing in the palace became louder and louder, and it was getting closer and closer to the palace gate, "Seven. ”

Suddenly, an old voice full of anger came from the top floor of the palace gate: "Li Chengye, you have the ability to fight with a knife and a gun, and the dignified Prince Chun is waiting in the north, how can you do this!?" ”

"Haha," Prince Chun said with a long laugh: "Li Chengru, Li Chengru, raising troops to rebel and betray the clan, even saying that others did it?" For your own selfish desires, pull more than 1,000 soldiers of the forbidden army to accompany you to the funeral, is this considered dignified? Before the rebellion, did you ever think that how many of the 5,000 forbidden troops were not in Zhuocheng? If you act like this, you should punish the nine clans according to the law, have you ever thought about them? ”

"You. What a Prince Chun, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, hum, we are the real Zhenggang Qingjun, and now I am very happy, not because of you people, who only know how to loot the people's fat and people's ointment, fish and flesh people, and the court has been stirred up by you. ”

"What a loyal and patriotic person," Li Chengru was interrupted by Li Chengye before he finished speaking, "It's just that what kind of goods are you, Li Chengru, others don't know, don't you know this king?" This king joined the army at the age of eighteen, and now it has been more than 20 years, and he has fought a hundred battles in his life, winning more and losing less, so as to lay the foundation of my Daganbei Mansion, and the foreign races outside the Saiwai will not step on the states of Zhongfu, that is, this king does not dare to take the banner of loyalty and patriotism to seek my own selfish desires, let alone take the life of his life and death brother in exchange for his own glory and wealth.

Forbidden soldiers, you are loyal to my Dagan Dynasty, not this despicable villain, if you can't even protect your parents, how can you protect your family and defend the country? After speaking, without waiting for Li Chengru to reply, Li Chengye shouted wildly, "Ten! ”

At this time, I heard someone shouting above the palace wall: "I surrender, don't kill my parents, me." ”

There was a scream, and the words came to an abrupt end. At this time, the Dingbei army shouted in unison: "Those who kill their comrades and brothers, kill!" ”

The soldiers of the Guanshan battalion also shouted in unison: "Those who kill their comrades and brothers, kill!" ”

Several screams came out from the palace wall again, only to hear Li Chengru scolding angrily: "Stop, stop everything, don't mess up." ”

Suddenly, Li Chengru was silent, and a deep voice slowly came out: "Stop it all, otherwise, Xiao will kill Li Chengru." "It's nine lives, Xiao Bai's death.

Xiao Baisheng took advantage of the chaos, jumped on the palace wall with a tiger claw, and took advantage of the unpreparedness of the king of Jinan, and took it in one fell swoop.

"Open the palace gate!" Xiao Baishu shouted in a low voice.

The soldiers on the palace wall had no fighting spirit, hanging their weapons low, several of Li Chengru's henchmen had been hacked to death with knives, and the rest of the soldiers were panicked, and at this time Li Chengye's voice under the city sounded again: "Open the city gate, what this king said just now still counts." ”

A general who looked like an officer of the forbidden army sighed, threw his weapon on the ground, and said, "Open the palace gate." ”

The rest of the generals threw their weapons on the ground and sat down. When Li Chengru saw this, he was so angry that he rolled his eyes, but he fainted.

The palace door squeaked, slowly opened, Prince Chun and King Mu rode side by side and entered the Dagan Palace. King Mu sighed and said: "Thirteenth brother, what a plan to go to the army, so that the soldiers can take the palace gate without blood, and it is really good." Hey, Brother Thirteen, you seem to be unhappy? Li Chengwen saw Li Chengye frowning and asked.

Li Chengye shook his head and said, "Such a critical position, why isn't Yu Chengyun here?" ”

Li Chengwen was stunned and said, "Isn't there other variables in the palace?" ”

Li Chengye didn't speak, looked at the soldiers of the Dingbei Army and the Guanshan Battalion who were escorting the forbidden army, patted the war horse, and said, "Go, Chengwen, go and ask Li Chengru." ”

The two rode horses to Xiao Bai's side, and Li Chengye said with a smile: "Lord Xiao, you are worthy of being the first master of my Dagan, and the palace wall of twenty zhang is like walking on the ground." Okay, this time, you should be credited with a great achievement. ”

Xiao Baiyu smiled slightly, lifted Li Chengru to the horse, and as soon as he let go, Li Chengru collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself, and he couldn't hear what he was saying, Li Chengye even called a few times, but he didn't answer. Xiao Bai was furious, stepped forward and grabbed Li Chengru and shouted: "Traitor, where is the emperor?" ”

Li Chengru was stunned for a moment, and then he cried loudly, and he was sad for a while. Li Chengye was furious and ordered the northern army to take it down and keep it under strict guard.

The king hurriedly said: "If the imperial brother falls into their hands, we will lose all our efforts." Lord Xiao, do you know where the emperor has gone? ”

Xiao Baishou shook his head and said, "Xiaguan has always been with the prince, and he doesn't know the situation in the palace. ”

Li Chengye's eyes flashed, and he said: "There is no other way, Chengwen, your Guanshan battalion and my Dingbei army search together, and you can't care about any rules, you must find the imperial brother." ”

King Mu nodded, and was about to give an order, when suddenly a number of people came in the distance, and the Dingbei Army and the Guanshan Battalion immediately stood on guard, and when they were about to enter the range of the bow and arrow, Xiao Baisheng hurriedly shouted: "Lord Wang, it's your own people." ”

At this time, a person flew out of the crowd, several ups and downs, like butterflies wearing flowers, came to Prince Chun and King Mu, and saluted with a fist: "Lord, Commander-in-Chief." It turned out to be a woman, just listening to the voice made people shiver cold, her body was delicate, and she was wearing a black veil, which added a bit of mystery.

Prince Chun and Brother Mu were shocked by the peerless body of the person who came, and looked at Xiao Baisheng suspiciously, but saw Xiao Baisheng nodding slightly, and said: "Lord Wang, this is Xiao's fifth sister, the fourth star in the eight-star arch guard, and Chu Ying'er is embattled. After speaking, he turned to Chu Ying'er and asked, "Fifth sister, how is it in the palace?" ”

The palace guards have eight stars and one guard, and their martial arts are ranked from low to high, and they have the highest martial arts of Xiao Baisheng with nine lives, but their identity is ranked from high to low, and Xiao Baijie is the boss of eight stars and one guard. Except for three or four guards among these nine people, the others are very low-key on weekdays, and they have all heard of their names for a long time but have not seen them.

The name of this embattled song is still Xiao Bai's death in a palace banquet, in terms of martial arts, the fifth can't catch up with his ten moves, but if you talk about light skills, she can't catch up with her in this life, everyone at the banquet is surprised, I don't want to have a better master than Xiao Bai's death method in the eight stars, and the name of the embattled song spread throughout Zhuocheng for a while, but Xiao Baisheng didn't say who the name of the embattled song was, whether it was a man or a woman, this time I saw it, everyone was extremely surprised, no one thought that the embattled was actually a woman, The eyes of several bold soldiers and guards were already roaming up and down Chu Ying'er's colorful body.

Chu Ying'er's tone was even colder, and she snorted coldly: "The Seventh Prince will be here soon, and the emperor has gone to the Prayer Terrace." ”
