The gate of Jinling was slowly opened, and the 60,000 troops in white clothes poured into the city, and the people who had just learned of the emperor's death looked at the banner of "death to the king" and pointed their fingers.
Li Haoxian took the lead, and together with the soldiers carrying the flag beside him, he galloped towards the imperial city.
The secrets of the palace have always been things that the people talk about, and when Zhu Yujian first arrived in Nanjing, he had not yet been able to get the love of the people. Hearing that the emperor died, coupled with the fact that the Duke of Yue supported the army to enter the court, various speculations have begun in the streets and alleys, and rumors are flying all over the sky for a while.
In Chen's mansion, Qian Qianyi was cleaning up the softness, and in the cold spring season, he was in a hurry to sweat all over his body.
The little guy guarding outside the city told him early that it was not Jin Shenghuan's army that he was expecting, it was the Suzhou Northern Expeditionary Army.
Qian Qianyi didn't tell his friend Huang Zongxi that it was always safer to run alone with a smaller goal. After cleaning up, Qian Qianyi turned around and looked affectionately at his wife who was still sleeping on the bed. Last night, in the middle of the night, he had to go out with three other conspirators, and in order not to make his wife suspicious, he drunk her with wine. Liu Ru is wine fainting has not gone, a few wisps of blue on her ruddy cheeks are scattered, a woman of this age is charming but not demonic, like a ripe peach.
Qian Qianyi's expression was complicated, and he called the maid who was waiting, handed her a letter, and said, "When the lady wakes up, be sure to hand it over to her in person." ”
The little maid lowered her head and promised softly, Qian Qianyi was relieved, and she took her bags and a few servants loyal to the Qian family to flee.
As soon as he walked outside the gate of the inner courtyard, a little guy looked at him with a smile and asked, "Where is Master Qian going?" ”
Qian Qianyi had no intention of seeing the same as a small servant, and his old servant came to confess the Lord after hearing that Qian Qianyi had returned, and he was loyal. Seeing the little girl's frivolous words, he said angrily: "Get out!" ”
The little guy in Tsing Yi smiled more humbly, like a turtle slave in the Qinglou Carnival, blocked the corridor, nodded and said: "Master Qian is so noble, how can he walk in person, the villain is willing to drive you for a ride." ”
Qian Qianyi, who was anxious, made a look, and the four loyal servants around him were about to step forward, and scolded viciously: "Are you looking for death?" ”
Two cold arrows shot out from the courtyard on the side, and after two swishing sounds, the two servants in front of them fell in response, and black-brown blood flowed from the small hole in their necks.
In the rockery on the left, another guy walked out and scolded in a dissatisfied tone: "What's wrong with your addiction, look at your cheap appearance, you are really a slave." Qian Qianyi turned his head and saw that in the hand of this little guy, he was still carrying a living person with a big tie of flowers, and when he looked closely, it was none other than his friend Huang Zongxi. Huang Zongxi's mouth was stuffed, and he didn't know what was on his body, he looked soft and couldn't move.
The humble little man's expression changed, and he pulled out a knife from his waist, and his whole temperament changed dramatically. Qian Qianyi was so frightened that he trembled like chaff, and stammered: "Don't kill me, what do you want?" ”
The two surviving servants, seeing that things were not good, yelled and were about to step forward desperately. A moment later, he fell to the ground, and the dagger in the little man's hand was dripping blood.
"The Hidden Elephant Camp is doing things, Master Qian will come with us." Qian Qianyi collapsed to the ground, was picked up by the little servant, and dragged him to the outside of Chen's mansion. Qian Qianyi was so sad that he was already scolding Chen Zilong in his heart, it turned out that the little people in the family were all other people's spies, how could they do big things.
Hou Xuanyan on the outskirts of the city looked at the group of remnants in front of him, and was moved, and said loudly: "You guard the gates of Jinling for me, and no one is allowed to go out of the city without my warrant today." ”
These veterans and wounded soldiers suddenly agreed, and Hou Xuanyan left 10,000 people behind and rushed to the city gates with them.
"Zheng Hanqing, you take people to the various yamen, and all the dukes, soldiers, and guards with knives are all controlled."
Zheng Hanqing surrendered his life, and 20,000 people followed him from both sides and rushed to the yamen in Nanjing.
"The others followed me into the palace to mourn and weep for my emperor."
The emperor died, and all the officials were in the palace, Chen Mingyu hurried outside the palace and asked, "What happened?" ”
The guards clasped their fists and said, "Don't panic, sir, mark it and go to find out immediately." ”
Before the words fell, Zhang Huangyan sighed and said, "No need, Yue Guogong has entered the court." ”
One hundred and eighty days after the Battle of Jingxiang, Zhang Huangyan was on the front line many times, leading the Hunan army and the Agni Battalion to fight side by side. I am most familiar with the sound of this horn, which is clearly the horn sound of the fire camp.
Li Haoxian came to the outside of the palace, and everywhere he went, he left soldiers to stand on both sides of the street until he reached the noon gate. The guards at the palace gate were frightened and asked, "Why did the general lead the troops to break the ban?" ”
Li Haoxian didn't answer, stretched out his hand, and waited for Hou Xuanyan to arrive.
Hou Xuanyan took the follow-up men and horses, followed the white-clothed soldiers on both sides, and came to the noon gate.
The commander of the guards recognized him, clenched his fists and bent over and said, "Duke Yue Guo came here for His Majesty's mourning, why did he bring troops into the palace?" ”
Hou Xuanyan turned over and dismounted, his face sank like water, and he said loudly: "Open the door!" ”
Tens of thousands of people behind him shouted in unison: "Open the door!" ”
The guards were shocked by this majestic roar, and a rushing killing intent rushed towards them, not a hundred battle elite soldiers, it was difficult to have this kind of momentum. The little soldiers around the guard commander were already trembling with fright, and asked in a trembling voice, "What should I do?" ”
The commander of the guards looked back and saw that his subordinates had the slightest intention of fighting, and stomped his feet and said, "Alas! Open the door. ”
The noon gate slowly opened, and Hou Xuanyan led the soldiers to dismount and walk. After passing the six palace gates of the Forbidden City, the Fengtian Hall is in front of you. Li Haoxian's heart was surging, and half a year ago, they were also in the fire camp, surrounded by Hou Xuanyan, and came to the Forbidden City. At that time, it had become a stable full of people, and the smell of horse urine was everywhere.
The ministers rushed out of the hall and looked at the people, all of whom stayed where they were.
Chen Zilong secretly said bitterly, as if his strength had been drained, and he collapsed on the ground weakly. Wang Xiangnian, who was pressed under him, took the opportunity to escape, and when he saw this posture, he was also stunned on the spot.
Hou Xuanyan walked to the front of the hall and looked directly at the spiritual position in the hall, as if there was no one around.
Zhang Huangyan came out of the crowd and asked sharply: "Yue Guogong led troops into the court, is it to mutiny?" ”
Chen Mingyu also had a sad face, although he had a good relationship with Hou Xuanyan, he didn't want to see a powerful minister, taking advantage of the emperor's bones to enter the palace to rebel. After just such a while, Chen Mingyu had secretly made up his mind that if Hou Xuanyan was brazen and self-reliant, he would not hesitate to die.
Hou Xuanyan ignored it, came to the hall, glanced at Chen Zilong on the ground coldly, and knelt on the ground with his robe.
"Minister, it's too late to save the driver."
