"Don't squeeze, line up for me!" A captain struggled to push the chaotic team in front of him, "Come one by one, lead the way out!" ”

Hundreds of ragged people clamored in the doorway of the city gate, and the loud noise almost toppled the gatehouse.

Dozens of gatekeepers were like a small boat in the big waves, squeezed around, and let them shout and curse again and again, but they couldn't even hear what they said.

I don't know what happened today, but as soon as the city opened early in the morning, a large number of people poured into the city, and the soldiers on duty were busy answering it. The most troubling thing was that many of these people had no way to go to the city at all, and according to the law, the soldiers unceremoniously drove them back.

This can be regarded as a bomb, and the people don't want to leave. They were blocked outside the city, some of them scolded and scolded, some of them begged bitterly, some of them were indifferent bystanders, and even worse, they either secretly bribed, or set up a big set of nostalgia, or saw a needle, and the situation was in chaos. As more and more people are stranded outside the city, the situation is getting more and more out of control.

Some powerful men became irritable, stretched out their hands and began to push the soldiers who were blocking in front of them, and even pushed the lonely soldiers back step by step, and many people took the opportunity to crowd up, and the situation almost got out of control.

Fortunately, Sima, the city gate who was in charge of the defense of the Middle East Gate, got the news and quickly led dozens of subordinates to arrive. Dozens of black leather whips slashed their heads and faces, and finally restored order to the crowd.

Looking at the gradually neat crowd, Sima of the city gate stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and finally showed a relieved look on his dark face. The chaotic scene just now really scared him a lot, and the imperial capital has been in an eventful time in recent days, and several earth-shattering events have happened in a row, which has tensed everyone's nerves.

Moreover, it is said that there was a court dignitary who actually sneaked out of the Upper East Gate at night, and for this reason, Sima of the City Gate, who was in charge of the Upper East Gate, had been thrown into the North Temple Prison. Even the captain of the city gate, who was in charge of the defense of the twelve gates of Luoyang, that is, his immediate boss, was severely reprimanded.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but tremble, Beisi Prison! Although I haven't been in it, I've heard that it's a place where people don't spit out bones, and few people can get out of it. If there is any further mischief in the Middle East Gate he is responsible for, then his fate can be imagined.

Sima of the city gate had a cold stinky face, and whipped a middle-aged man who wanted to get out of the crowd, causing the man to scream and retreat in a hurry.

He shouted angrily: "If there is any more deliberate trouble, those who do not obey the law and discipline will use the knife!" ”

There was a commotion in the crowd, but it was more stable, and many people who had no way to guide let out a desperate sigh.

Sima of the city gate breathed a sigh of relief, but when his eyes fell into the distance, he was a little unsure, how did he do it? It seems that there are more and more people, and this kind of thing has never happened except for some festivals. There are some strange things about this today!

He grabbed one of his subordinates and said in a loud voice: "You, immediately report the situation here to the captain, and transfer more people!" Fuck, that's a weird thing! ”

He shouted three times in a row, and the subordinate heard it clearly, and walked away.

There were more people blocking the city gate, and they seemed to be a little restless, and the anger in the heart of Sima at the city gate burned suddenly, and he raised his leather whip, and was about to give the people in front of him a little more color.

Suddenly, a small pebble fell from the sky and smashed on his iron helmet with an unmistakable sound.

This is really a rebellion! He looked up furiously to find this daring boy, but was stunned to find that above the city gate, a subordinate Dubo was waving his hands wildly at him, and he didn't know what he was screaming.

His ears were still filled with the sound of all kinds of noises, and he couldn't hear what Du Bo was shouting at all, but Sima's heart sank at the city gate, this Du Bo usually acted calmly and sophisticatedly, and rarely behaved out of shape. But at this time, the twitching expression on his face and the exaggerated movements of his hands have already explained: something big must have happened!

Nadubo also apparently realized that Master Sima couldn't hear at all, and he desperately pointed his finger in the direction outside the city.

Sima at the city gate was stunned and looked out of the city, but was completely blocked by the dense crowd and couldn't see anything.

He roared angrily, and the whip in his hand rained down, and even a few of his subordinates couldn't dodge, and they also received a few lashes, and the crowd finally broke apart.

Sima of the city gate crowded to the gate, and suddenly saw the scene in the distance, his dark face suddenly turned pale, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.

Finally, he reacted, and let out a miserable howl that was not human: "Quick! Close the gates! ”

Emperor Ling stood on the edge of the pool, pinching a handful of fish food in his hand, but did not sprinkle it on the schools of fish that had gathered at his feet, he frowned, and was stunned.

It wasn't until a few hurried footsteps stopped behind him that he realized it, raised his hand, spilled all the fish food in his hand into the pool, and slowly turned around.

When he saw the few people in front of him, a smile finally appeared on his face: "En! Very good, you're all here! ”

He sat comfortably on the stool brought by several eunuchs, pointed to a veiled man in front of him and said, "Aiqing, you have been refusing to remove the veil for the past few days, are you ashamed to see people?" ”

He squeezed his eyes rarely, and said, "Or, do you have any unsavory secrets?" ”

Nan Ying's faint voice sounded: "Your Majesty wants to make fun of it, in front of the Son of Heaven, how dare the younger brother have any secrets?" ”

Emperor Ling said bitterly: "However, Aiqing has always refused to show her face, how will I be placed in you?" ”

He laughed and said: "In the court of the past and present, there are no ministers who hide their heads and tails!" ”

Nan Ying shook his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn't think that at this moment when the enemy is dark and I am clear, we should also keep a dark chess move?" ”

Emperor Ling's eyes lit up and said, "I understand what you mean!" Now although Feng Xu and Xu Feng have been given the head, no one knows whether there are still traitors lurking in the DPRK. Well, this investigation must not be slackened! ”

Nan Ying nodded and said: "Not only to investigate, but also to secretly investigate, to investigate the traitorous party, to investigate the family of Huiren, and to investigate Taiping Dao!" ”

He sighed and said, "I believe in Mr. Wang Yue's judgment, Feng Xu's subordinates must be the killers of the Huiren family, and they are not the same killers as the last assassination!" This shows that their strength is very large, and they have a steady stream of manpower and material resources. ”

He smiled bitterly: "If I reveal my identity publicly at this time, not only will it not help, but I will only have one more name on their assassination list!" It will also alert them and fix any possible flaws. ”

The Spirit Emperor was silent for a while before he said softly, "Not bad! You're right, what I need most now is not a retainer, but a sword hidden in the dark! If the sword is not out of the sheath, it is already there, and once it is unsheathed, it will be killed with one blow! This is also the only way to deal with the House of Appointments! ”

He couldn't help but perk up, raised his head and said, "Okay! Tell me, how are you going to respond? How can I help you? ”

Nan Ying smiled slightly, turned his head to look at an old man beside him and said, "Brother Chen doesn't need His Majesty's help now, just work Lord Zhang!" ”

The old man's pale complexion revealed a sickly look, but a pair of eyes were occasionally shining, he chuckled when he heard this, and said in a sharp voice: "Mr. Nan can be said to be the benefactor of this official, but if he has an order, Zhang Rang will not allow it!" ”

This person is Zhang Rang, the middle servant of the ruling and opposition parties. He has enjoyed all the glory and wealth in his life, has great power in his hands, and has an unfathomable peerless martial arts, which can be said to be wind and rain. This also created his empty-eyed character, and the people he feared in his life were just a few people such as Emperor Ling, Zhang Jiao and Wang Yue.

However, at this time, the young man surnamed Nan in front of him not only gave birth to an opinion that could not be underestimated, but also secretly felt a sense of gratitude in his heart. When he entered the palace in middle age, he had to have an only son, and if there was no young man surnamed Nan on this trip to Yiyang, he was afraid that he would suffer the pain of Lao Tzu's loss of his son. There are also Feng Xu and Xu Feng, the two bastards, who are submissive to themselves on weekdays, but they are very deep hidden traitors in Taiping Dao, and they almost implicated themselves, I heard that it is still this young man who is trying his best to protect himself in front of the Son of Heaven, and this kindness alone is difficult to repay.

Finally, there is an opportunity to repay, but it must not be missed, otherwise not only will you lose the friendship of an upstart, but it may also make the Son of Heaven give birth to a misunderstanding of his own cold nature.

He smiled softly, and there was no usual arrogance in his tone: "As long as Mr. Nan speaks, Zhang Rang will definitely do it properly!" ”

Nanying didn't know what he was thinking at all, and he was flattered to see this generation of eunuchs who left a name in the history books so casually and easily, and he had an unreal feeling in his heart.

He thought for a moment before he said: "I still need an identity that can be seen in public, and the guise of the Southern Divine Doctor is very good, which is convenient to act and will not arouse too much suspicion, but!" ”

Zhang Rang blurted out, "It's just what? ”

Nan Ying said with a smile: "I need to put on the tall branch of Lord Zhang Rang, it is best to be able to enter and exit the Zhang Mansion freely, so that it is convenient to transmit information to His Majesty in a timely manner, and I can also get the support of Lord Zhang nearby!" ”

Zhang Rangmi's eyes rose, this young man is not simple! not only knows how to be flexible, but also directly shortens the distance with him, which is equivalent to showing the position of the two of them sharing honor and disgrace, such a wonderful good thing in one fell swoop, such an informed and interesting celebrity! Why don't you do it yourself?

His smile deepened, but he still asked lightly: "It's not Zhang Rangtuo, but before the gate of the mansion every day, there are often thousands of people queuing up to get to know Zhang, how can Mr. Nan enter Zhang's mansion without being suspicious of others?" ”

Nan Ying laughed and said, "Don't worry, Lord Zhang, I have already considered this matter. In Xia Bucai, he has the name of a miracle doctor, of course, after entering Beijing, he must meet the holy hand of the court, that is, the imperial doctor Ling Lang Ling Zhang Feng! I don't want to get acquainted with Master Zhang after entering the house, but I met Master Zhang by chance, and I hate to see each other late, should this reason be enough? ”

Emperor Ling and Zhang Rang's eyes lit up at the same time, and blurted out: "Okay! ”

Zhang Rang felt more appreciative in his heart and was about to speak.

Suddenly, the voice of a eunuch shouted: "Lord Yin He of Henan, there are 100,000 urgent things to do!" ”

Several people shut up at the same time and looked at the Spirit Emperor together.

Emperor Ling had an ominous premonition in his heart, and frowned: "Call in!" ”

He Jin knelt on the ground with a "porphyr" sound, his always calm face was full of panic, and he hissed: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!" Half an hour ago, tens of thousands of people suddenly appeared at the twelve gates of the imperial capital at the same time, and they forcibly squeezed open the city gates and poured into the city! ”

Emperor Ling got up suddenly, brought the stool under him to the ground, and pointed his finger at He Jin and said, "What! Say it to me again! ”

He Jin took a big breath and said hoarsely: "Just before the ministers entered the palace, no less than 200,000 people had forcibly entered the city, and now all the streets and alleys of the imperial capital are full of them!" ”

The Spirit Emperor's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "How can this be! What the hell is going on! ”

Nan Ying took a deep breath and said, "Ma Yuanyi! ”
