Wen Xiang asked Meng Jingzhong as he walked: "Where did King Alcohol enter Heavenly Street from?" ”

Which side - does it mean to enter Heavenly Street from Jingyun Gate, or from Longzong Gate to Heavenly Street?

"If you go back to Zhongtang," Meng Jingzhong said, "I asked, and someone saw that the King of Alcohol County came in from the Longzong Gate. ”

Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying glanced at each other and said to each other: In the past two days, King Xu of Alcohol has really stayed in his Haidian villa as rumored.

Usually courtiers enter the palace, generally do not take the south side of the noon gate, and there are not many people who go to the north side of the Shenwu Gate - the Shenwu Gate is mainly for the palace dependents, deacons to enter and exit, and the courtiers go, mainly the Donghua Gate in the east and the Xihua Gate in the west.

Jingyun Gate is the east gate of Tianjie, enter from Donghua Gate, enter Tianjie, and take Jingyun Gate.

Longzong Gate is the West Gate of Tianjie, enter from Xihua Gate, enter Tianjie, and walk Longzong Gate.

If you enter from the Shenwu Gate, enter the Heavenly Street, take the Jingyun Gate - once you enter the Shenwu Gate, it is the inner court, and the foreign ministers can not pass through the inner court, so they can only turn east and go around the East Tube - the longest alley in the Forbidden City, between the East Sixth Palace and the Ningshou Palace.

If you enter from the noon gate, whether you go to the Longzong Gate or the Jingyun Gate, the difference is not big.

Taiping Lake is in the north of the Forbidden City, Haidian is in the west of the Forbidden City, King Alcohol entered the palace this time, he was anxious, and he would never go around in circles, neither the noon gate in the south, nor the Donghua Gate in the east - in fact, he could not take the Donghua Gate, which was already controlled by the Xuan army.

If he came from the palace of the alcohol county in Taiping Lake, most of them entered the palace from the Shenwu Gate, then he took the Jingyun Gate into the Heavenly Street; If you come from a villa in Haidian, then you must enter the palace from Xihua Gate and enter Tianjie by Longzong Gate.

Now, since the alcohol king walks through the Longzong Gate into the heavenly street, he should enter the palace from the Xihua Gate, and he should come from his Haidian villa.

Later, it will be clearer to confirm with the guards and guards of the various gates.

As soon as I entered the Heavenly Street, I saw that in front of the Qianqing Gate, there were many officials and deacons gathered, pointing in the direction of the Military Aircraft Department and the Longzong Gate.

Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying walked forward quickly, and Wen Xiang shouted: "Why, don't you have to do errands?" Come on, write down the names of those who left their posts without permission, and hand them over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for strict impeachment! ”

Everyone turned around and saw that Wen Zhongtang and Cao Shangshu were coming, both with a dignified face, and immediately scattered one after another.

As soon as the onlookers dispersed, Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying's eyes widened.

In the open space in front of the military plane, the alcohol king sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands on his laps, his back straight, his neck erect, and his eyes slightly closed.

God, this is?! ——

Several guards kept a distance from the alcohol king, staring at them with good eyes.

The two military planes, Zhang Jing, stood beside King Alcohol, bent over slightly, tied their hands, and looked helpless; Another military plane, Zhang Jing, was a little far away from the alcohol king, pacing back and forth, looking in the direction of Jingyunmen from time to time - it was Xu Yongyi.

As soon as he saw Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying coming, Xu Yongyi hurriedly stepped up to greet him and said, "King Alcohol said that the Queen Mother and Queen Mother didn't see him, so he ...... I can't get up while sitting here! ”

What the?

Seeing Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying from a distance, Zhang Jing, a military aircraft next to King Alcohol, hurriedly ran to the door of the military aircraft office and shouted something into the house.

Xu Geng lifted the curtain and walked out, spread his hands to Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying, who walked in, and smiled bitterly.

King Alcohol opened his eyes and said loudly: "Wen Bochuan, Cao Zhuoru!" You two, don't be sinners of the Qing Dynasty! ”

Wen Xiang was shocked, and was about to speak, Cao Yuying said in a low voice: "Bogong, the two of us are ordered to meet, don't entangle with him first!" ”

Wen Xiang froze for a moment and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

Seeing Wen and Cao, the two of them didn't say a word, went straight to the inner right door, regarded themselves as nothing, couldn't help jumping like thunder, jumped up, but stumbled, and almost fell - he sat cross-legged, it had been a long time, his legs and feet began to be sore, he got up too quickly, and was tripped by his filial piety robe, and it was easy to hold it.

"Wen Bochuan! Cao Zhuoru! The alcohol king halberd pointed and shouted, "Do you want to 'rebel'?" You guys...... Feel your conscience! Isn't it true that you can live with your ancestors? Isn't it right to live underground Emperor Wen Zongzhang? Isn't that right...... The Daxing Emperor in the Taiji Palace? ”

A series of interrogations, especially the last sentence "Is it right to be worthy of the Daxing Emperor in the Taiji Palace", Wen Xiangru was shocked, his face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't help it anymore, "Seventh Master, you ......"

Cao Yuying tugged at his sleeve violently, "Bo Gong! Don't fight with words! ”

After a slight pause, he lowered his voice, "At this moment, the more you take care of him, the more energetic he becomes!" The worse it sounds! It's serious to get there! ——How to handle it, let's see the meaning of 'above' first! ”

Wen Xiang had no choice but to hold back and continue to move forward.

Seeing the appearance of King Alcohol, he was about to catch up, and several guards hurriedly stopped in front of the inner right door, and the military machine Zhang Jing, including Xu Yongyi, also hurriedly stepped forward to persuade.

At this time, a vague thought popped up in Wen Xiang's mind: If the mastermind behind the assassination of Prince Xuan was really King Alcohol, how could he still be like this...... Uh, not only did he not have any fear of sin, but he jumped arrogantly, as for this?

The roar of the alcohol king can be heard almost even from the Qianqing Gate: "Wen Bochuan, Cao Zhuoru!" You two are sinners of the Qing Dynasty! ”

Wen Xiang was about to stop, but finally held back, sighed, and left.

The alcohol king did not go back to sit down, snorting, pacing back and forth, and shouting from time to time: "Don't be a sinner of the Qing Dynasty!" ”

Or: "People are doing it, the sky is watching!" ”

Or: "Think about the end of rebellion!" ”

Etcetera.

People from near and far, whether it is an official or a guard, they all tossed all the way, and they are all "colorless", but any persuasion, the alcohol king is deaf; If he didn't follow the order, no one dared to touch his fingers, so he had to silently watch King Alcohol alone in anger and impassioned.

The strange thing is that the Xuan army should have begun to "take over the defense", I don't know if it is because in the order of "receiving the defense", after the comparison of the Tianjie line, or for some other reason, the soldiers in blue uniforms have not been seen entering the Tianjie.

About two quarters of an hour later, Wen Xiang and Cao Yuying returned.

The alcohol king had been emotional for too long, and he was close to exhaustion, he stared at him, and was thinking about giving these two "two Qing sinners" a few more powerful words, Cao Yuying spoke first:

"There is a purpose! Listen to the announcement! ”

King Alcohol was stunned for a moment, although he roared loudly, he said all the ugly words, and many words were still satirical to the queen mother, but the system was closed, after all, he couldn't help but "listen to the announcement".

After a pause, taking a breath, King Alcohol lifted his filial piety robe, knelt down, leaned over slightly, and bowed his head.

However, words such as "the minister listens to the mercy and the edict" are not allowed to be said after all.

"Where's Ouchi?" Cao Yuying's face was expressionless, and her voice was sharp, "The Son of Heaven and the Abode of Our Lady stop!" Unexpectedly, there was a plot to assassinate the prince of the country, which is really appalling! And the murderer turned out to be Ouchi's guard, which is especially outrageous! The king of alcohol has no position, how can he be shy again? Go to the king of alcohol to lead the lack of ministers in the guard! ”

The alcohol king raised his head violently, opened his round eyes, and said loudly: "I don't accept it!" ”

At the end of the edict, it is generally not used to "admire this", but to use "this edict" and "special edict", and Cao Yuying did not say "this edict" and "special edict", which means that this edict has not yet ended. King Alcohol's reaction is tantamount to interrupting the will halfway, this is an extremely "no courtesy" behavior, and if you seriously investigate it, you can severely demote him - it is not uncommon to go straight down from the prince to the prince to not enter the eighth prince.

Also, the word "I disagree" itself is also very "uncourteous".

Cao Yuying said coldly: "Where are you not convinced? ”

The alcohol king opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything—if he thought about it, there was not a word in his will to refute it!

I was in a hurry, and this sentence came out: "What about Boyan? He's also the Minister of the Guard! ”

Not to mention Cao Yuying, Wen Xiang, and Xu Geng, even the military aircraft Zhang Jing, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but sigh in his heart: straw bale!

The corners of Cao Yuying's mouth showed a slight mocking smile: "Prince Horqin captures the murderer, how can he be compared to the king of alcohol?" Prince Korqin was dismissed and retained, and he tried to make meritorious contributions! ”

As long as those who "stay in office" and "dismiss" their posts, they will go through the motions -- after a long time, they will be "restored".

"Is there anything else the King of Alcohol has to say?"

The Alcohol King opened his mouth - this time, he really didn't know what to say.

Seeing that King Alcohol was speechless, Cao Yuying continued, "Where is the Heart Cultivation Palace? Where is the military aircraft department? Where's Paradise Street? The king of the alcohol county stopped the inordinate behavior, roared loudly, and there were many unbearable words, absurd and rebellious, and regarded the national etiquette as nothing, how could he serve in the front of the emperor again, serve the Son of Heaven as a close servant, and set an example for hundreds of officials? The king of the alcohol county went to the vacancy of the imperial minister! ”

The alcohol king was shocked, "I ......"

Cao Yuying said sharply: "King Alcohol County, are you going to interrupt Yi's decree again?" ”

The body of the alcohol king twisted a little, but did not make another sound.

There are a lot of differences in King Alcohol, but this "Dutong" and that "Dutong" can only be regarded as honorary titles, and the really important missing points are the Imperial Minister, the Minister of the Guard, and the "Leader of the Divine Machine Battalion", among them, the most important is the "Commander of the Divine Machine Battalion".

The onlookers were all thinking, including King Alcohol himself, who was also nervous: Next, it was the turn of "going to manage the lack of the Divine Machine Battalion", right?

I don't want to, it's quite unexpected-

"The absurdity of the king of alcohol is ineffective," Cao Yuying continued to promulgate, "It's always a mistake of not studying, not self-cultivation, and not waking up on weekdays!" The king of the mellow county went back to study and thought about it behind closed doors! ”

Paused slightly, "This edict! ”

Hey, you actually left the envoy of the Shenji Battalion to him?

The alcohol king was silent.

"How?" Cao Yuying said coldly, "Does the King of Alcohol County plan not to obey the order?" ”

Everyone in the audience held their breath.

If King Alcohol really has any indication of disobedience, even if they completely tear their faces apart, then the guards should step forward and directly take King Alcohol out of the palace.

After a long while, King Alcohol squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Minister...... Receiving ...... Shane. ”

The onlookers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment—I don't know if it was agreed in advance? In the direction of Jingyun Gate, soldiers in blue uniforms came out, a small team, a small team, lined up in a very neat formation, and trotted all the way into the heavenly street.
