There are always some well-known secrets in the deep palace, such as being sisters with the current queen, such as the emperor actually favoring King Jin, for example, the third prince is a servant.

When the emperor first ascended the throne, he was still a little uncomfortable, scurrying around in the palace every day, and one day he was drunk and ran to the imperial garden, met a little palace maid, and took advantage of the drunkenness to be fortunate to her, that is, that time, there were three princes.

Although it is said that the mother is more expensive than the son, but where can there be a little palace maid in the deep palace, when the third prince just remembered, the little palace maid of the year was sacrificed in the palace fight, and the emperor has seen more women, and he did not take her to heart, and he never mentioned it again after being buried according to the concubine's etiquette.

No one told her who she offended and caused the murder, nor did she tell her why it was her, and the cannibalistic deep palace would never reason with people. This was the first thing the three princes understood when they were young.

"Huh-" The third prince came to the Xuanwu Gate with his men and horses, and looked at the vermilion palace gate as if he was in a trance. "Mother, you say, this door doesn't look like human blood has been spilled."

None of the people present knew who the third prince was talking to, but waited quietly behind him, waiting for him to give an order to break through the door in front of him.

The cowardly prince who once watched his biological mother die has finally grown up.

The third prince closed his eyes and said slowly, "Open the door." ”

"Rush-" Xu Buyi gave an order, and the army of 10,000 people behind him broke into the door with siege vehicles, people blocked and killed, and gods blocked and killed gods.

The guards in the imperial city were obviously a little powerless in the face of the Xiongnu army, but they still did not back down and guarded the imperial city behind them.

The eunuch who delivered the message hurried to report to the emperor, and as soon as he entered the hall, he knelt on the ground, trembling and said: "Your Majesty, the three princes have arrived at the door with the barbarians, and the guards are almost unable to hold ......"

In addition to the emperor and Qiao Mingyue in the main hall, there were also the queen and the queen mother who had just arrived, and when they heard the news from the little eunuch, the last glimmer of hope in their hearts was also shattered.

"Mingzong, he has finally come to this point." The emperor looked at the imperial city outside the window and said dejectedly.

Qiao Mingyue looked at the emperor's appearance, and was so anxious that she wanted to die, and she couldn't directly scold him, "Your Majesty, there is no time, please leave the palace quickly." ”

The emperor turned his head to look at her, and said with determination: "There is a secret passage behind the main hall, go from there." ”

After that, the emperor personally walked to the wall, which was engraved with nine dragon patterns, he reached out and fiddled with it a few times, and the wall slowly moved away, revealing a secret passage behind, "This leads directly to the outside of the palace wall." ”

With this configuration, why didn t you say it earlier, let me worry about it here for a long time, Qiao Mingyue looked at the secret passage and smiled helplessly.

"But......," the Emperor continued, "there is no switch in this passage, and someone needs to stay outside to close it." ”

The little eunuch who had just come to report the news looked around, shook his head in resignation, and was about to speak, but was preempted by Qiao Mingyue, "Let Erchen come, Erchen stays here, maybe he can delay for some time." ”

The current situation is urgent, one more minute will give you one more chance of life, the palace is full of important people in this country, if something goes wrong, the whole country will be buried with them, so that the palace people are not at ease Qiao Mingyue is not at ease, it is better to let yourself go.

The emperor's eyes changed when he looked at her, and he sighed: "Jingyun really didn't marry the wrong person, from this moment on, you are the county lord of my Zhou Dynasty." ”

It's not a good time to be sensational, whether you can survive or not is another matter, Qiao Mingyue smiled and didn't say anything and stepped aside, watching the emperor and queen mother and the queen mother and her party enter the secret passage, and finally she kicked the little eunuch in, and at the moment of crisis, she didn't think about running away but came back to report the news, which showed that this person was still somewhat useful.

"Protect the emperor well." Qiao Mingyue yelled at him, and then reached out to close the secret passage as the emperor did just now, and moved a few chairs over to cover it up.

Qiao Mingyue felt that it was still not enough, turned her head and saw the candle flame burning on the table, walked over and knocked it over, the flame instantly ignited the folds on the table, and suddenly spread to the side of the curtain, Qiao Mingyue looked again and confirmed that there was no problem before hurriedly leaving the main hall.

Escorting the emperor to escape were the people of the Imperial Forest Army, as well as Gonggong Chen and Gonggong Liu, Qiao Mingyue had heard Qi Jingyun say that the two eunuchs were masters in the palace before, no matter what they said, there should be no need to worry, and now the most important thing is where Qiao Mingyue should hide.

The army of the third prince had already broken through the two city gates and was about to rush in, leaving little time for Qiao Mingyue.

In front of him was a bloodthirsty enemy, and behind him was a flame that was not long-eyed, just when Qiao Mingyue was worried, she suddenly saw several large water tanks in front of the palace, which were all used for emergency use when walking in the palace, which was very common, Qiao Mingyue thought for a while, did not hesitate any longer, and ran towards the water tank on the side.

The weather has not completely warmed up, and the water in the tank is still a little biting, Qiao Mingyue directly turned in, reached out and covered herself, and hid inside and waited quietly.

When the people of the three princes attacked the main hall, it was already dark, only the monstrous fire shone on the entire imperial city, I have to say that Qiao Mingyue's move to set fire was correct, the water in the water tank of such a large fire was no longer effective at all, and the besieging army did not dare to rush into the sea of fire rashly, so they could only wait patiently for the fire to extinguish itself.

"Third prince, what should I do now?" Xu Buyi looked at this ferocious fire, and he was worried for a while, the front was so smooth, but at the last step, he was trapped here.

The third prince looked indifferently at the burning palace in front of him, and after a long time he spoke: "Wait." ”

When the disaster comes, not everyone has a chance to escape, and not everyone is qualified to follow the emperor into the secret passage, and the harem was left by the remaining concubines who escaped from the palace with the palace people, some chose to commit suicide directly, and some chose to wear the most beautiful palace clothes and stay in the palace quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

The third prince rode around the harem alone, and suddenly wanted to laugh, after so many years, the man sitting on the throne was still so ruthless, and he still couldn't fit anyone else in his eyes.

He came to the palace where his mother lived before her death, the current owner of the palace no longer knew where to flee, and the palace people in the palace were gone, leaving this cold palace to stay here quietly, witnessing this imperial city, waiting for the arrival of the next master.

"Mother, Erchen is back." The third prince looked at the familiar palace and spoke again, no longer with the previous domineering, but with a whimpering cry, like a young beast that had been discarded.

In fact, from beginning to end, he was just a child who had not yet grown up, waiting in this deep palace, waiting for the man to look back at him again.
