Text Chapter 686 Smoke Cage Chang'an
The bustling night of Chang'an City gradually increases with the change of seasons, and inevitably decreases a lot. Because of the recent tensions, most people rarely go out to the streets after dark, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
For ordinary people, those things of the court and the royal family are a little far away from them. Although it is said that he bathed Jun'en at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are very few people who have seen this high Son of Heaven with his own eyes. It is not so much the emperor's grace as it is a symbol of the majesty of the dynasty.
The prosperity is coming, and the four seas are calm. If you want to ask any Chang'an people, what is the most hopeful thing in the hearts of the people? Then the answer must be, stay stable, don't mess around!
No one likes the resurgence of the wind and smoke, just as no one likes killing and blood. The current situation is not easy to come by, and everyone cherishes it.
However, things often backfire. If you want to avoid it as much as possible, it will come suddenly and wake up in an unexpected way, ...... dusty dream!
The tide of Weishui is rising, the smoke cage is Chang'an, and in the desolate night, there is a fog that obscures the moonlight and starlight. It would have been an ordinary night, uneventful. But it is remembered in the history books because of a major event that is brewing and is about to happen.
There are many people who do not fall asleep. They were of different identities and miscellaneous professions, but in a short period of time they were gathered one after another, ready for the orders that were about to come.
It's a huge force. Many of these organizers have been given clear instructions to keep an eye on movements coming from the direction of the Prince's Palace. Countless pairs of eyes lurking in the darkness are waiting with various moods. Whether it is life or death, it is their fate.
Inside the Bowang Garden, where the gate is tightly closed, the high wall blocks everything, and people outside naturally can't see the lights here. An urgent mobilization and organized operation, all preparations are ready, and the arrow is ready to be triggered!
In the Han system, the crown prince could have his own pro-army, although strict numbers and equipment were stipulated and could not be transgressed. But just relying on this power, wanting to do some of the things you want to do, in the eyes of the current crown prince Liu Ju, is enough.
No matter what kind of people had ideas, and no matter how strongly they opposed it at the beginning, in the end, all the subordinates of the East Palace still agreed to the decision made by the prince himself.
"This time...... I just want to rely on my own strength and courage to let everyone see if he is a qualified successor to the dynasty! …… Father, Brother Yuan, I hope you can also see ....... ”
The crown prince, wearing a soft armor, stood on the steps of the palace, surrounded by a large number of East Palace guards, calmly looking at the hundreds of pro-soldiers who were waiting for his orders, and no one knew what kind of generosity and waves were stirring in his heart.
As long as tonight's raid can be successful, capture Jiang Chong and the rest of the ministers, and force them to find out what their purpose is in doing such evil...... Then all the current difficulties will be solved. His father is definitely not a fool, as long as he has the initiative, he will definitely make the wisest choice. At that time, even if he was punished the most severely, he was willing.
The prince, who thinks he has figured out all the causes and consequences, has great confidence in his heart. He looked at his soldiers again with all the swords and armor, and nodded secretly with satisfaction. Tonight is unexpected, and the attack is unprepared, how can the embroidered guard house imagine that it will be hit suddenly!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, have you really decided to do this?"
"Yes! Sweep away the source of chaos and clear the palace ban, only tonight! ”
Liu Ju, who was encouraged by the momentum of the pro-army, nodded firmly. I think that when he crossed the sea with Yuan Zhao and traveled to the Western Regions, he was already extremely envious of the scene of commanding thousands of troops and horses. It's just a pity that as a prince, he hasn't had that opportunity. Tonight, he led hundreds of pro-army movements, although he didn't have that kind of formation, but if he could really fight a beautiful battle, it would be enough to comfort his life.
"Okay...... In this case, we would like to congratulate Your Highness on a successful start and success! Remember, if you find that you can't do anything, you must stop it in time to avoid incurring greater disasters! ”
Headed by the crown prince and young Fu Shide, as well as Yan An and all the subordinate officials of Bowangyuan temporarily suppressed the worries in their hearts, bowed down together, and went to the prince for the sake of the prince.
In the feelings of these literati, they still look forward to the success of the prince. As the crown prince, he should not have had an adventure in person. But a prince who acts decisively and resolutely is the most qualified successor to inherit this great dynasty. If it weren't for their powerlessness, they would have followed generously and eliminated evil for the country.
What should be explained has been explained clearly, and there is no need to say more. Maybe in the heart of the crown prince Liu Ju, he didn't think much about what serious consequences would be if he failed! Occasionally, it is only that if his plan does not succeed, he will be punished more severely by his father......
The palace door opened quietly. Under the cover of the night fog, hundreds of armor soldiers rushed out, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness. The Goryeo boy who came out at the end glanced back at the palace gate that had been closed again, and then floated within a distance of the prince's figure. The Xuandao in his arms was cooled by the mist, as if his heart was as calm as water. Park Yongyeol, whose martial arts have been perfected, does not care about the success or failure of the prince's actions. He has only one mission, to keep the prince safe and unharmed under any circumstances. Master Yuanzhao once gave this task, he has always kept in mind in his heart, and he has never dared to forget.
Bowangyuan is in the northeast corner of Weiyang Palace, and the location of the embroidered clothes guard is on the side of the Suzaku Gate. The two are not far apart, passing through an east-west alley, and then turning into Suzaku Street, but it is only four or five miles away, and it is only a blink of an eye.
The crown prince Liu Ju wore a sword, and although it would not be his turn to personally cut people, he was still fully armed. Although there are no lights on the long street, and there are no stars and moons in the night sky, these streets and alleys have long been very familiar, and you can already see the palace lights hanging high on the side of the Suzaku Gate, and the destination is in sight.
"Pass my orders! After entering the embroidered guard, there is no need to kill innocents. can directly take Jiang Chong and those few helpers as abusers. Whether it's life or death, you must not let them escape! ”
In the darkness, a few hundred meters away from the Suzaku Gate, all the prince's troops and guards received orders from the prince himself. The sword was unsheathed, the light armor was cold, and everyone secretly whispered a promise. Then in the next moment, the sword light pierced through the fog, and several agile guards attacked first, quickly controlling the Yulin army guarding the palace gate.
Afterwards, hundreds of armor soldiers rushed straight to the embroidered guard not far from the Suzaku Gate, which was their primary target tonight. As long as you control this place and catch those few target people, then everything will be easy.
There was some unusual silence in the embroidered guard, and the silence was extremely abnormal, which made people panic. The courtyard was extremely wide at the gates on both sides, and a few dead wind lamps swayed and emitted flickering light.
Although the leader of the pro-army who rushed in first sensed the abnormality, he didn't have time to think about it. He led more than two dozen brave armor soldiers to break through the courtyard gate and went straight to the hall where the plaque was hung directly above.
However, these people may never have thought that they have no murderous intent, and they have already been locked by the cold killing machine!
Three or four princely soldiers stepped up the steps and were about to use their knives to split the door in front of them. Unexpectedly, the door of the hall suddenly opened automatically, and then the lights were dazzling, and only a slight sound was heard coming...... When his eyes were about to split, before the exclamation in his mouth could be shouted, he had been shot by a cold arrow and fell to the ground and died!
Sudden changes happen right in front of you. The leader of the pro-army, who was a few feet away, was taken aback, knowing that the other party had already prepared. He was about to give a loud warning to the pro-army team behind him to prepare for battle. How did you think that since the other party has already launched, where is it willing to give up!
Several more rounds of crossbow bolts were fired from the doorway window, and the people who were near the steps could not avoid it. The extremely sharp crossbow arrows easily pierced through their light armor, and the swords were useless, and death was only a matter of moments.
Blood gushed out from the wounds pierced by the crossbow arrows, and the leader of the pro-army, who had no time to pay attention to the brothers who had fallen to the ground, shouted behind him after holding his last breath.
"There is an ambush! Quick Retreat...... Protect the prince and leave ......! ”
Before he finished speaking, he couldn't hold on any longer, the last thing he saw before he died, the high walls and rockery towers on all sides of the embroidered clothes guard had been illuminated by torches, and the people and horses in ambush finally appeared, and those elongated figures were like night demons in the dark, firing crossbow arrows in their hands unscrupulously, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of their former comrades...... The leader of the pro-army sighed and closed his eyes in pain.
In the midst of the light and shadow, Jiang Chong, the commander of the embroidered guards standing tall on his body, looked very cold on his face. He watched as the prince's soldiers who had already rushed into the embroidered guard were wielding their swords and struggling uselessly. I couldn't help but have a cold smile in my eyes.
Swords and armor, even if they are fully equipped, what is the use? In the face of the nine-armed chain crossbow, a sharp weapon in the Han army, all resistance was in vain.
"Yuan Zhao, you probably never thought about it, did you? One day, there will be this unparalleled murder weapon invented by you yourself, which will be aimed at your most important friend...... Or even yourself! Hehe, is this the greatest irony in the world? ”
The prince's army, which was surrounded on all sides, suffered heavy casualties, and in a short period of time, they fell to the ground and died, and the sound of pain was endless. Jiang Chong, who was dressed in arrow sleeves, finally searched for the figure surrounded by guards, and he slowly raised the crossbow arrow in his hand.
"Prince? Hehe...... Now you are unidentified trespassers of military aircraft with the intention of rebelling! I was buried here, but I ...... all self-inflicted! ”
