Since Ye Xingcan and his entourage entered Wancheng, the general of the Iron Eagle Army sent a fast horse to Beijing as soon as possible to report the changes in Wancheng, and then asked if it was necessary to continue to seal the city with the army since Princess Min and the Imperial Forest Guard had entered the city to save people.

It's okay not to report this, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military who thought that there was nothing to retreat in the court heard that the eldest princess had entered Wancheng, they were all stunned, and they heard that it was Wang Shaoyuan, the commander of the right of the Imperial Forest Guard, who was responsible for opening the road and negotiating, and looked at Wang Zaicheng, who was the head on the left, with different expressions, but they were all meaningful.

Wang Zaicheng stood on the main hall embarrassedly, his face was white and red, red and black, it was wonderful, and his brows were even more deeply frowned into a Sichuan character, and he just wanted to drag the bastard who was good at advocating and working against the court home, and he chose fifty with a cane.

Wang Zaicheng opened his mouth, but after all, he didn't say anything, and directly knelt down to ask for guilt.

Huizong ignored it.

Listening to Duanxue Tie riding from Wancheng hundreds of miles away put up a flag to change clothes, high-profile into the city to save people, Huizong was furious, this clearly let the people of the world see the court and his own jokes, raised his hand and threw the imperial pillow behind him down the palace, and then took a deep breath, which stabilized the majesty of the royal family, and looked at the courtiers standing with hanging hands in the hall expressionlessly.

"Zhongqing thinks, Yongning Palace, which one is this trouble? Is it compassionate? ”

The more Hui Zong said, the more angry he became, "Now that people have entered the city, give me an order to continue to seal Wancheng, I want to see how they end!" ”

Before Wang Zaicheng could breathe a sigh of relief, there was another urgent report from the hall, saying that Cao Cao had come to Cao Cao, and this urgent report turned out to be from the Yongning Palace, which had not been reported once for decades.

Liu Shuang, the great eunuch in front of the emperor, received the urgent report and stood in front of the hall, waiting for Huizong to show him.

Huizong looked at the urgent report indifferently, turned his back, his expression was invisible, and said to Liu Shuang for a while, "What does he want to do, I will listen." ”

Liu Shuang looked down at the urgent report, and sprinkled a large article, to put it bluntly, King Yongning heard that the eldest princess of Min had entered Wancheng, and he was worried, and asked the saint to give a special order to get out of the fief and save the princess.

After hearing this, Huizong smiled, unable to tell whether it was true or false, whether it was love or sarcasm, and whether it was allowed or not.

The ministers in the hall were also silent, and no one spoke.

"What do you think, but it doesn't hurt to say it." It was Huizong who spoke first.

"The minister thinks", unlike the Suri discussion, Huang Yubing, the chief official of the Yushitai, spoke first, "The saint agreed." A few days ago, there were rumors among the people that King Yongning heard that Princess Min Chang had entered Wancheng, which was overflowing with epidemics, and was very anxious. Early this morning, news also came from the prison officials in various places that King Yongning cherished the future princess and wanted to enter Wancheng to save people regardless of his own safety. ”

Zhang Zheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also bowed, "The minister thinks that the king of Yongning has more than 300,000 soldiers, and he has a marriage contract with Princess Minchang, and he is a childhood sweetheart, since he has reached the edge of the fiefdom, if he is not allowed, I am afraid that there will be more people talking about it in the world." ”

When Huizong heard this, his expression became more and more solemn, and he seemed to mention it casually, "Now that I ask for a decree to leave the fiefdom, the next step is to enter Yongning......

The words are not finished, the meaning has been transmitted, and the key is that someone understands the meaning. People who can stand in the hall are not stupid, and the so-called silence is just pretending to be stupid.

Wang Zaicheng, who was depressed, immediately nodded thoughtfully, and his movements were not large, but when he saw Huizong's affirmation, he immediately set up a banner, "The minister thinks it's inappropriate." ”

Bow deeply to Huizong, "A few days ago, the minister heard that King Yongning had destroyed two of the three major tribes of Beiyin, and now, instead of taking advantage of the victory to pursue, he wants to leave the fief on the grounds of love, and the drunkard's intention is not to drink." ”

"Oh?" Huizong clasped his palms, and his tone also fluctuated, "What do you mean?" ”

"King Yongning can't go out of the fiefdom, it's the ancestral system, please think twice!" Wang Zaicheng said loudly. The ministers immediately chimed in.

Huizong nodded, "Since all the Qing families have said so, Liu Shuang has made a decree and replied to King Yongning like this." ”

"Chirp-" Liu Shuang's eyes were unpredictable.

Outside the city of Wancheng, the Iron Eagle Army got the holy decree, only to know that the eldest princess and the royal forest guard entered the city not to receive the holy decree, but to make a claim, the general knew that he had committed a big crime, and hurriedly ordered the army to cheer up, in addition to the three checkpoints set up before, but also sent 5,000 soldiers to patrol and defend the various borders of Wancheng without interruption, and could not release a person, let alone put another person.

It was also that day and night, a man and a horse, from the northwest border, galloping. Dismount ten miles away from the city, hide in the shadows, and probe carefully, to see the barricades set up by the Iron Eagle Army, the swordsmen and soldiers to protect the flail, and the archers to hide on the platform.

The visitor was not worried, but raised the corners of his mouth and smiled easily. As if he had expected it, he reached out and took out a Ming Di and shot it in the direction of Wancheng.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the side corners of the Wancheng city wall exploded and ignited.

The generals of the Iron Eagle Army, who were boasting in front of the generals just now, saw such a scene, and their muscles burst out, and they immediately rushed over there with their soldiers.

Sure enough, this can't be too full, it can't be rounded, and it's a shame.

In the city, in the past few days, because of the remarkable effect of Ganluo flower anther, the plague situation in Wancheng has improved a lot, and it has verified that the epidemic in Wancheng is artificially poisoned.

Wang Shaoyuan first went out of the city and learned about the closure of Wancheng with the Iron Eagle Army, and after determining that it was impossible for the two people he met in Linpei Mountain to escape from Wancheng by any means, he sent additional troops to continue to search the mountains to find the murderer.

Every day, I go out early in the morning, wear the stars and the moon, and go back to the inn to rest in the evening.

As soon as he came back that night, he heard a knock at the door, so he reluctantly calmed down, straightened his clothes, and washed his face with the cold water in the basin, and his sleepiness and fatigue were finally gone.

When I opened the door, I saw that it was the princess with Yan'er, and looked at me with a light smile.

It turned out that Yan'er hadn't seen her eldest brother for a few days, and she was worried, so she ran to find the princess to find someone.

"Commander Wang, this little girl is also affectionate and righteous, thank you for saving her grandmother, these days you go to my place every day to look for you, the meal is not delicious, I said let Huo Yue take her to see grandma, I am not happy, I am only willing to follow you, if you are free to catch Ming'er, you can take her to see." Ye Xingcan was not impatient, looking at Yan'er, but smiled gently.

Wang Shaoyuan didn't expect this to happen, looked at Yan'er who was standing at the door timidly, and said with a smile, "The last general will take the order." I asked Yan'er again, the clothes I gave her a few days ago still fit.

Yan'er looked at her eldest brother and smiled, and also laughed shyly, let go of Ye Xingcan's little hand, walked in front of Wang Shaoyuan, and couldn't help nodding, "It fits, this is the best-looking clothes Yan'er has ever worn, thank you, big brother." As he spoke, he knelt down.

was busy being pulled up by Wang Shaoyuan.

Ye Xingcan saw that the task was also completed, and he was ready to leave. When I got to the door, I only heard a "boom-" sound.

The two of them ran to the window at the same time, and a fire broke out in the corner of the city wall not far away.

The city was not big, and the inn was not far from the place where the fire started, but I felt that the heat wave was mixed with sparks, and the crumbling city walls, burning stones, mixed with human voices and more and more torches gathered, and half of Wancheng seemed to be immersed in a scorching heat.

Wang Shaoyuan ran out in three steps and two steps, as if he remembered something, he hurriedly turned around, his voice was short, but his expression was not panicked, and his years of military career still made him quickly calm down, "Princess, I'll go see what happened, please go back to the room immediately," paused and said, "Yan'er will ask the princess to take care of it." He rushed out without looking back.

Yan'er seemed to be frightened, hugged Ye Xingcan tightly and didn't let go, and her whole person couldn't help trembling.

Ye Xingcan thought that he was still a child after all, although he had seen a lot of life and death in the past two months, he was still stunned when he suddenly looked at the city break, and was ready to take Yan'er back to the house to wait and see what happened.

Unexpectedly, Yan'er suddenly ran away, only saying that she wanted to see if her grandmother was frightened.

Ye Xingcan hurriedly called Huo Yue to follow, but the sudden explosion, the people of Wancheng rushed out of their homes, and the streets that were empty in the past suddenly rubbed shoulders one after another, and after a few steps, Huo Yue could no longer see Yan'er's figure, so he had to rush to the county mansion, thinking that he could only wait by Yan'er's grandmother's side.

On the other side, the scrambling Iron Eagle Army hurried to the gap in the city wall, and the royal guards also hurried from the city to the place where the explosion occurred.

The explosion seemed to be just to attract attention. Although the fire is still burning, fortunately, all parties reacted quickly and gradually subsided.

The person who released the Ming Di was dressed in a black night suit, his eyes were clear, but his face was extremely ordinary, without a trace of memory points, and he could be instantly submerged in the crowd.

I saw that after he abandoned his horse, taking advantage of the flames to the sky, the Iron Eagle Army was in confusion and quietly sneaked to the farthest end of the city wall from the fire section.

Then he picked up a few stones from the ground, and threw them far in and around.

Sure enough, several patrolling soldiers came over, searched around, couldn't see the clue, and turned to leave.

The man seemed to be very good at lightness, and when he saw the soldiers leaving, he drew a cluster of arrows and shot them at the wall, and in an instant he flew up, stepped on the cluster of arrows that had not yet fallen, and climbed the wall. After entering the city, it was instantly submerged in the crowd and disappeared.

Ye Xingcan watched the flames in the sky gradually extinguish, and always felt that something was strange, it stands to reason that the person who poisoned was in the city, as long as the troops did not move, even if they sent more people, it would be difficult to catch them, there was no need to take such a big risk to set fire to attract troops.

But if it is said that the accomplices outside the city came to the rescue, it can only be that the people inside the city have spread the news, and the poisoning has been discovered, unless there is still a backhand, what is the use of breaking in again?

What's more, in the past two days, the Iron Eagle Army outside the city has strengthened its defense for some reason, and there are Royal Forest Guards and Duanxue Iron Cavalry in the city......

Ye Xingcan shook his head lightly, who is the person who started the fire, and who is the person who broke into the city? This is not a movement that can be made by one person, and the fire is not big or small, and the power of the explosion is also accurate.
