King Zhongshun sat in the middle, looked at the people below, and knew that it was impossible to get them to pay.

So he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said to the royal family present: "Now is the most dangerous time for our royal family, if we don't help, who will?" The king pledged to donate 800,000 taels of silver, and all the clan relatives please do not order the donation. ”

The royal families below were also a little hesitant after hearing what King Zhongshun said, and finally thought that if Jia Ke succeeded, they would not even have their lives, let alone money, so they began to donate generously one by one.

It didn't take much effort to make them scrape together more than 4 million taels of silver.

And the four kings and eight princes were a little embarrassed when they saw that these royal relatives and relatives did not give money.

So these people looked at each other, and finally Sun Xuan stood up and symbolically pledged two thousand taels, and the others saw that even he had donated, and they could only donate some each, and they didn't donate a total of 20,000 taels of silver.

Seeing that the matter had been completed and the silver had arrived, King Zhongshun did not delay, so he directly ordered Sun Xuan to take the silver and recruit warriors everywhere in the city to prepare for Jia Ke's counterattack.

After these things were arranged, King Zhongshun looked at the bottom and had nothing to say, and knew that it was time to act.

So King Zhongshun stood up and said to the people below: "The matter is urgent and cannot be delayed, let's set off to the imperial city now and rescue the emperor." ”

After the king had finished speaking, the people below responded with a bang.

So this group of people came out of the main hall and came to the square of the palace of Zhongshun.

At this time, Niu Jizong had already gathered all the three or four thousand people from each prefecture, and the remaining small servants were barely standing in a few rows, about five or six thousand people.

King Zhongshun came to the square and stood on a high platform in the center of the square, and the princes and nobles followed him up to the high platform.

King Zhongshun looked at the people under the black pressure is ambitious, as long as this matter becomes himself, it will be famous for eternity in the future.

"Everyone, everyone also knows that Jia Ke bullied the monarch and monopolized the dynasty, which is today's living Cao Cao, this king is under the emperor's secret edict, and today he will enter the imperial city, rescue the emperor, and reorganize the dynasty. All of you will follow me, and you will be added to the ranks. ”

King Zhongshun then said a bunch of words about the official vows, but the popularity of those people below was not high.

After all, no one is a fool, everyone thinks that Jia Ke is in charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and they are afraid that they can win for a while, and they may not be able to resist Jia Ke's counterattack.

Seeing that the people below were not very popular, King Zhongshun felt that there was no way to just make empty wishes, so he ordered his men to bring large boxes of silver.

Then he poured it out in the middle of the churchyard.

"Everyone, you serve the emperor, and I can't be stingy, now each person will take ten taels of silver as a settlement fee, and if it is done, the emperor will have a heavy reward."

And at this time, these people at the bottom began to get excited, after all, ten taels of silver is not a few, and they can buy an acre of land in the countryside.

The king then ordered the men to start handing out the money one by one, and the men had some morale when they took it.

King Zhongshun took advantage of the fact that these people had something to do now, and hurriedly ordered Niu Jizhong to take these stragglers to occupy the nine gates of the capital, and then actually control the capital.

Niu Jizong got the order, did not dare to slack off, took these people out of the Zhongshun Palace, and then ordered his subordinates to divide into several waves to occupy the nine gates of the capital.

Now the capital has almost been hollowed out by Jia Ke, but some of the combat strength of the troops have been taken away by Jia Ke, and now the guards at the nine gates of the capital are the old and weak soldiers who are the infantry leading the yamen.

As soon as Niu Jizong and his people arrived, these people were dumbfounded on the spot, so they didn't resist at all, and they were controlled by these families and servants under Niu Jizong.

Niu Jizong saw that he had already controlled the 9 gates, and immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and the traffic inside and outside the city closed.

Then Niu Jizong placed two or three hundred people at each city gate for the purpose of guarding the city gate, and the others were taken by him straight to the prime minister's yamen.

Niu Jizong rushed into the Prime Minister's Yamen with people, and now only Lao Meng Ming was left there in the Prime Minister's Yamen.

Old Meng Ming watched Niu Jizong break in with a bunch of people, and knew that things were not good, but after all, he was a master of Confucianism, and he was still holding a shelf.

"You and others broke into the Prime Minister's Yamen, didn't they want to rebel?"

Niu Jizong saw that the old Meng Min was questioning there with a cracked voice, but he did not do anything wrong to this old man, because he knew that this old Meng Ming was the leader of Shilin, and if he was offended, his disciples and grandchildren would also drown their Zhenguo Mansion with spit.

So Niu Jizong sent someone to imprison Lao Meng Ming in a side room in the Prime Minister's Yamen.

After Niu Jizong dealt with these things, he returned to the Zhongshun Mansion with his men and horses.

At this time, the king of Zhongshun had been waiting for him for a long time.

Niu Jizhong came to King Zhongshun in three steps and two steps, and arched his hand and said: "Lord, the 9 gates have been controlled, and the prime minister's yamen has also been searched by me. ”

"I'm afraid the Prime Minister's Yamen is already empty, right?"

"Lord Wang, the Prime Minister Yamen has left the old Meng Min stubborn."

King Zhongshun nodded, and then continued: "In that case, don't bother with him anymore, what should we do next?" ”

Niu Jizong immediately said to King Zhongshun: "The prince is not to be ado, the last general will take my men and horses now and attack the imperial city." ”

King Zhongshun nodded when he heard this, and then said, "General, please take care of me, I will dress up neatly and go to the imperial city with the general." ”

After the king had finished speaking, he immediately returned to the apse, and had already prepared all the armor for him. King Zhongshun immediately dressed up with the help of the eunuch with him and returned to the schoolyard.

Niu Jizong took a look at it, King Zhongshun is now also a golden helmet and golden armor, if it weren't for his white fingers, he would have thought that he was really a strong general.

King Zhongshun came to the church again, nodded at Niu Jizong, and then said: "Now we can go, this time, then please General Niu more." ”

Niu Jizong nodded, and then began to reorganize and set off.

And they were just about to go to the palace when a carriage followed.

When King Zhongshun saw it, it turned out that it was Prince Yixiao who chased after him with more than a dozen personal guards.

King Zhongshun did not dare to slack off on the elder of the royal family, and quickly turned his horse's head and came to the front of the car.

"Uncle Huang, what else do you have to explain?"

At this time, the curtain of the cart opened, and the white-haired Prince Yixiao sat inside.

"This time it's about the fate of our royal family, I can't let you go alone, and I'll hand over this old bone to you."

After hearing this, Prince Zhongshun was a little moved, this old imperial uncle was already half buried in the ground, and he still went to the territory for his royal affairs.

"Uncle Huang, you are not young, it is better to sit in the mansion and wait until our city town to invite Uncle Huang."

"No, this is our royal business, even if you have your own people back, how can others move forward."

Prince Yixiao now had to go, and King Zhongshun was moved and didn't say anything more, and after appeasing Prince Yixiao, he came to the front of the team again, and led the men and horses straight to the palace.

Some of the old people saw the clues, knew that there was a mutiny, so they hurried home and closed the door of the house, hoping that these people still have some conscience, do not trespass into the house.

King Zhongshun and the others came to the front of the palace with their men and horses, and at this time the front of the palace was already full of people.

Those forbidden troops guarding the palace have long since run away, and these forbidden troops who stayed in the imperial city are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and the real elite have long been taken by Xiao Kun to the north to resist the Tatars.

This was a convenient time, and the king of Zhongshun rushed into the palace with little resistance.

At this time, the emperor had already received a report from his eunuchs in the Fengzao Palace.

This time the emperor was excited, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time, and during this time he could be said to have spent his days in the palace.

"Someone, prepare clothes for me."

Originally, these palace maids and eunuchs were all sent by Jia Ke to monitor the emperor, but now these people are already frightened, and they are afraid that the emperor will settle accounts with them after he regains power, so he does not dare to disobey the emperor's orders.

Soon these palace maids and eunuchs dressed the emperor in the dragon robes of the great dynasty.

After the emperor finished dressing, he immediately ordered to set up the Luan car, so a group of people went straight to the Qianqing Palace.

Who knew that when they were just halfway there, King Zhongshun rushed into the inner palace with this group of chaotic soldiers, and intercepted the emperor halfway.

As soon as the emperor saw that it was King Zhongshun who was coming with his men and horses, he immediately ordered Luan to stop and wait for King Zhongshun to come and see him.

After King Zhongshun entered the palace with thousands of men and horses, he rushed left and right to kill almost without encountering resistance, and he had already cleared the outer palace, at this time he rushed directly into the inner palace with his men and horses, and wanted to go to Fengzao Palace to find the emperor.

How do you know that King Zhongshun led his men and horses, and as soon as he came out of the Qianqing Palace, he saw that Luan Jia in front of him had come to this side.

The king of Zhongshun hurriedly ordered the troops to stop, and then dismounted himself, bowed down to the emperor, knelt down on his knees, and reported to the emperor: "The courtier's rescue is late, and I ask the emperor's brother to forgive him." ”

The emperor has opened the curtain of the imperial chariot, he looked at the king of Zhongshun kneeling on the ground at this time, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Until now, there is only this royal brother, and he still thinks that his royal brother is desperately coming to the rescue.

So the emperor immediately got off the royal chariot, walked quickly to the kneeling king of Zhongshun, helped him up with both hands, patted him on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Lu Yao knows the horsepower, Bandang sees the loyal minister, today is a brother, but I know the virtuous brother." ”

King Zhongshun was also very moved by the emperor's support, and the two of them grew up together, although there were some contradictions, but there were still feelings.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I have taken the imperial city with the families of each family, and the emperor has now been reinstated."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded, and then said directly: "Follow me to the Qianqing Palace, and I will pass on the will." ”

The emperor's words were extremely loud, and the resentment in his heart could finally be sent out now.

After the emperor finished speaking, he walked to the Qianqing Palace first, and the king of Zhongshun had no choice but to follow behind with people.
