Chapter 1172: Ninety Percent Palace Broken
"King Jin, the wind is blowing!"
In the imperial city, the guards couldn't help frowning when they saw the howling cold wind.
"What then? The king and his father made an appointment, and they took advantage of the fourth watch to leave the palace, and if nothing else, they could reach the Jiucheng Palace tonight. Li Zhi frowned.
From Chang'an City to Jiucheng Palace about three hundred miles, all have been paved with straight brick roads, along the way is full of post stations, only need to quickly change horses, even if Li Zhi is pampered, a day march of three hundred miles is also easy, if fast, Li Zhi may be able to have dinner with his father and queen mother tonight.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin think twice! Your body has just healed, and you are still very weak, and the windy weather is not suitable for traveling, if the disease recurs, I can't afford to wait! The guard hurriedly dissuaded.
"No, this king has made an appointment with his father, and he will definitely arrive at Jiucheng Palace tonight. A hint of firmness appeared on Li Zhi's immature face.
The reason why Li Zhi was able to get the favor of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun is that in addition to his weak personality, well-behaved and cute, he is also very filial, and he can refuse his filial son who can be rejected by any parent in the world.
"Your Royal Highness, the parents of the body and skin, caring for the body is the greatest filial piety to the parents, if His Royal Highness the King of Jin forcibly rushes in the wind, if it is after the wind and cold, will not make His Majesty worried." A Jin king's attendant read and persuaded, and when he heard his tone, he must be a Confucian.
"What this attendant said is very true, if His Royal Highness the King of Jin suffers from the wind and cold, so it is infected to the queen's mother, wouldn't it be even more inappropriate." The accompanying imperial physician also suggested that since the rise of the doctor, the theory of wind and cold infection has been confirmed, and the queen's poor health is known to the world, and she can't stand any risk so as not to cause qi disease again, this time Li Zhi did not follow everyone to Jiucheng Palace, because he was worried that Li Zhi would infect the eldest grandson queen.
Hearing the advice of Confucianism and doctors, Li Zhi no longer insisted, and sighed: "Then only the sons and daughters bear the name of breaking the contract, and don't let the father worry about it, and let the queen mother risk getting sick." ”
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is benevolent and filial." A group of Jin Wangfu attendants praised one after another.
Li Zhi said resolutely: "But don't let your father wait for a long time, once the wind stops, set off immediately, even if you rush overnight, you must rush to Jiucheng Palace in the shortest time." ”
"Yes! His Royal Highness the King of Jin! Everyone shouted in unison, waited for the wind to stop, and then set off.
However, until dawn, the wind was still howling in the sky, and it was not until noon that the strong wind stopped, and Li Zhi did not hesitate to give the order to hurry immediately.
Along the way, the Jin Wang team is speeding up, time is consumed little by little, looking at the sun that has begun to slope westward, Li Zhi can't help but sigh, the wind has delayed most of the day, and the night is very slow, and it will be good to be able to reach Jiucheng Palace tomorrow morning.
Sure enough, as Li Zhi expected, although the Jin King's convoy was in full swing, they were only halfway when they were supposed to arrive at Jiucheng Palace.
………………
"Back to the general, there is no convoy of His Royal Highness King Jin." Mo Yun hurriedly came to report.
Watching the night fall, Ashina was anxious, obviously it had passed the time agreed by His Royal Highness King Jin, but he didn't see the shadow of the convoy at all.
Ashina was anxious in his heart, but his face was impassive: "Don't panic, I think it must be the wind today, which delayed the trip, and everyone was supposed to be on standby." ”
The Turkic soldiers continued to wait patiently with the anxiety in their hearts, but they waited until late at night, but no news came.
Only then did everyone realize that there was something wrong with the convoy of King Jin, and they didn't know whether they didn't set off from Chang'an City on time, or if they didn't set off at all, which made the Turkic soldiers think a little more, and the whole team became restless again.
"Is it that He Luohu has rebelled and deliberately sent false news from Chang'an City!" Mo Yun guessed in a low voice.
Ashina shook his head and said, "Impossible, if He Luohu rebelled, it would be impossible for us to stand there safely. ”
"Then I think His Royal Highness the King of Jin was delayed because of the wind, or I will wait until His Royal Highness the King of Jin arrives." Mo Yun frowned.
Without the cover of Li Zhi, the king of Jin, the possibility of their operation being successful was greatly reduced, and the chances of victory were not great, so there was really no need to take this risk.
Ashina shook his head, he believed that He Luohu would not rebel, after all, there was a khan position to attract him again, but his subordinates were not necessarily, in order to improve the chances of victory, he temporarily recruited a lot of Turkic soldiers, and the plan was fully revealed, everyone already knew the plan of the rebellion, if the king of Jin came early, it would be good to say, if it continued to drag on for a few days, it would be difficult for someone to tell him, once the assassination plan was revealed, they were all dead.
"Although King Jin did not arrive as scheduled, we must not give up this operation." Ashina said firmly, if it is late, there will be changes, and he will not dare to delay.
"The general means storming?" Mo Yun frowned and said, in his opinion, Ashina's association rate must have wanted to deceive the palace gate and prepare to attack, but they did not have siege weapons, and the attack was probably nine deaths, and it would alarm Li Shimin, and the possibility of successful assassination was very small.
A group of Turkic soldiers suddenly rioted, they were tempted by the reward of the Ashina Association, and if the assassination was successful, they wanted to return to the grassland to enjoy the glory and wealth, but they were not to be sent to death.
Ashina smiled strangely and said: "How can General Ben be a fool, let Er and others go to storm the palace gate, General Ben has another clever plan." ”
A group of Turkic soldiers couldn't help but look at Ashina's association rate in amazement, now that they have failed to deceive the city gate, and the strong attack is hopeless, how can they successfully enter the Jiucheng Palace and complete the assassination mission.
"Climb over the wall!" Ashina said proudly.
Ashina looked back, his eyes skimmed over the tall palace gate, and focused his gaze on the wall of the Jiucheng Palace in the distance, the Jiucheng Palace was built on the mountain, except for the palace gate was a flat road, the others were dense forests, enough to cover their tracks.
The eyes of the Turkic soldiers suddenly lit up, they avoided the gate of the Jiucheng Palace, and entered through the wall from the side, but they were more hidden, and the chances of success were greatly increased.
At that moment, a group of Turkic soldiers began to secretly build ladders, and soon, they had built a ladder large enough to climb over the city walls.
Ashina looked at the hundreds of Turkic warriors behind him, and couldn't help but say proudly: "Everyone, the restoration of the Turks is today, and we will all be the heroes of the rebuilding of the Turks, and we will die in this battle." ”
"Fight to the death!" A hint of frenzy suddenly appeared on the faces of the Turkic soldiers, and they shouted in a low voice.
Ashina took a deep breath, took the lead in stepping on the ladder, climbed over the wall and entered the palace, and one by one the Turkic soldiers easily climbed over the wall.
Ninety percent of the palace is broken!
