Chapter 825: The Change of Seizing the Door (7)

Before Cao Jixiang led the team to storm the Qianqing Palace, most of them were palace guards and eunuchs under the Imperial Horse Prison mixed with a part of the forbidden army, and their combat power naturally could not be compared with the real forbidden army, and the bigger problem was that the weapons they were equipped with were only ordinary swords and guns, but there were no bows and crossbows.

There are already forbidden troops guarding the palace gate in this palace, and there is almost no need for these horses to fight, so it is naturally impossible for them to have bows and crossbows, and only the guards of the Son of Heaven are qualified to be equipped with crossbow arrows. But the forbidden army that was transferred by Chen Xiang from the palace gate was different, they had bows and arrows, so when they knew that someone on the wall had cast cold arrows, they naturally would not rush towards them stupidly, but first used the dense rain of arrows to open the way for themselves.

In the whistling sound, dozens of arrows flew up the wall, and a group of guards who were lying on top hurriedly found a place to hide, but they didn't even dare to raise their heads. And then they can no longer pose any threat to the enemy below.

At the same time, with this round of arrow rain, two or three hundred rebels had rushed to the palace gate with a loud cry again, carrying the crashing wood and slamming it heavily on the crumbling palace gate, causing the gate of the Qianqing Palace to tremble suddenly, and it looked like it was about to fall apart.

Behind them, Chen Xiang, the leader of these forbidden armies, was standing in front of the pale Cao Jixiang with a pale face with a panicked face, and he couldn't see the joy of making a great achievement. Because he had already reported to Gong Cao why he was late, and the fact that he had not found the Emperor Zhu Qizhen in Nangong.

Cao Jixiang, who was already injured and almost died under the cold arrow, became more and more ugly after hearing the news: "Are you saying that Your Majesty is no longer in Nangong?" Did someone find out about our plan earlier and take them out of it? โ€

"Fear ...... I'm afraid that's the case......" Chen Xiang lowered his head and nodded worriedly. Then, after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he said again: "Father-in-law, judging from the current guards in the Qianqing Palace, I'm afraid that the emperor learned about this early on, so he sent someone to take him away, right?" โ€

Regarding this speculation, Cao Jixiang also thinks so. But at the same time, he had some doubts in his heart, if it was really like what Chen Xiang said, why didn't Zhu Qiyu take countermeasures earlier? After all, he is the son of the great tomorrow now, as long as he comes forward and speaks, these rebellious forbidden troops will easily return to obedience, right?

Unless it's ...... Cao Jixiang's heart suddenly moved, and a thought came to him. It seems that it is likely that the Son of Heaven is already seriously ill and dying, so he can no longer come forward, so he has to use such a seemingly ingenious strategy to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle.

Yes, that's it! At this time, whether Zhu Qizhen is in hand or not, there is no possibility of turning back, there is only one way to go to the end! After understanding this, Cao Jixiang quickly raised his head again and shouted in a loud voice: "Attack our family, as long as you attack the Qianqing Palace, everything in it will be yours!" โ€

The effect of this statement was immediate. Everyone knows how many treasures are hidden in the emperor's bedroom, and now they can take all these treasures as their own as long as they kill them, how can they not completely arouse the enthusiasm of these horses?

So, in a burst of shouts, the rebels rushed to the palace gate with a more fierce attack, and after a loud bang, the palace gate had been smashed open a huge gap, and someone was able to rush into this gap with their hands and feet.

Such a scene really frightened the dozens of eunuchs and palace maids who were still guarding behind the palace gate, as well as the guards who had already run down from the wall. Although the guy who wanted to be the first to climb in was immediately killed by someone with an arrow, this did not stop the others from continuing to destroy the palace gate and continue to fight desperately.

Just when the gate of the Qianqing Palace was in danger and was about to be completely breached, a gong suddenly sounded behind him, and then a chaotic shout also sounded: "Kill, protect Your Majesty!" "A large crowd lit torches and lanterns, stumbled and ran in this direction. Although most of the people in their hands were only blunt instruments such as sticks, their momentum was not weak.

As soon as he heard this, Cao Jixiang's brows quickly furrowed. What he feared happened anywayโ€”

In his original plan, if he suddenly attacked today, he could naturally attack the Qianqing Palace in a short period of time, and then take Zhu Qizhen out, which was enough to make the palace dare not oppose it. Then, with Shi Heng with the Jingying army outside, he can subdue the entire court, and this coup can be successfully completed.

But this rebellion went wrong one after another, not only did they encounter great obstacles here in the Qianqing Palace, but even Zhu Qizhen was taken away early in the morning. In this way, they have only one way to go by attacking with all their might. And after this commotion, the other people in the palace finally came back to their senses completely, those who are still loyal to Zhu Qiyu naturally can't sit idly by, the killing in front of them should be just the beginning, and the next one will be the person who protects the king of Qin, you must know that there are thousands of eunuchs and miscellaneous servants in this palace......

"Chen Xiang, you quickly bring a group of men and horses for me to stop them." Cao Jixiang immediately ordered, and then shouted in front of him: "Why don't you kill me quickly, so many of you will not be able to attack such a palace gate, what are you eating?" There was eagerness in his voice.

Chen Xiang hurriedly agreed, ordered dozens of forbidden soldiers around him, and quickly turned around and pounced on the eunuchs who were rushing over. It's just that when he rushed forward, his heart began to sink, and he felt that it would be difficult to succeed in this matter today, and he was afraid that his choice was wrong this time......

He thought so, and these rebels who attacked the Qianqing Palace in front of him also had similar thoughts in their hearts. Just now, they were the only ones who stormed around the Qianqing Palace, so they didn't have too much fear in their hearts. But at this time, when they heard that someone had already arrived at King Qin from behind, some people who were still sober felt that something was wrong. He attacked the Son of Heaven's Bedroom, even if he really killed it, could he hurt the Son of Heaven? So what should we do next?

If Cao Jixiang had Zhu Qizhen in hand at this time, this problem that caused the army's morale to be shaken would naturally be solved, as long as he played the banner, saying that it was to set things right and re-enthrone the emperor. But now, everyone knows that Zhu Qizhen is not in his hands, so this statement is naturally not true.

And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from above: "Everyone, stop me!" Although this shout was not extremely loud, it was quite majestic, and it immediately slowed down the movement of the rebels, who were already hesitant, and many people subconsciously looked up, only to see a hazy figure standing there.

"Don't listen to his, shoot him off for me!" As soon as he saw that someone suddenly made a statement to disturb the morale of the army, Cao Jixiang was suddenly in a hurry, and hurriedly screamed and gave an order.

Suddenly, several forbidden soldiers were ordered to cast arrows at the wall, but the black rumbling on the top, coupled with the shelter of the wall, did not pose a threat at all. And with the words of the figure after that, the movements of the rebels were a shock.

Although this man had hidden behind the wall, making it impossible for people to continue shooting him with bows and arrows, his words continued: "This official is Lu Jin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Gonggong Cao, your conspiracy has been revealed early on. You should have known it a long time ago, Zhu Qizhen, whom you thought was the backer, was gone. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, and now he's right next to me! Cao Jixiang, it is impossible for you to succeed anymore, listen to my advice, then put down your weapons, tie your hands and arrest you, Your Majesty may be able to open the net and forgive your crimes! โ€

This person who dared to speak out at this time was Lu Jin!

When he brought Zhu Qizhen out of the dormitory, he saw the critical scene that the palace gate was about to be broken, so he hurriedly went up to the palace wall and directly said something to disturb his army's heart.

Of course, he knew that it would be difficult for Cao Jixiang and the others to really give up the rebellion based on his own rhetoric, but as long as he could disturb the morale of his army and drag on for a while, the situation would improve.

At this time, Chen Xiang led people to fight with the group of eunuchs who rushed over to King Qin, and only one of them looked at each other, and the latter team was screaming again and again. These people have not undergone military training at all, and they only hold sticks and other shoddy weapons, and they are naturally unable to be the opponents of these elite forbidden troops armed with swords and guns.

Listening to the bursts of screams, Lu Jin's face also trembled, and then he turned his head and stared at Zhu Qizhen's face, who was trembling: "Emperor Taishang, there are countless people who are loyal to my Daming who have died because of you, don't you feel that you have committed too many sins against my Daming?" A few years ago, in the civil fort, because of your momentary confusion, how many soldiers and ministers were buried under the knife of the Tartars; And today, it is one of your greed again, but once again countless people have fallen under the swords and guns of their own compatriots, do you really have a good feeling in your heart? Over the years, you feel that you have been greatly wronged, but all this you have suffered can really make up for the great mistakes you made to the Ming Dynasty and the accumulated white bones piled up under the civil fort? โ€

These words were so powerful that Zhu Qizhen's body trembled violently again, and his face was full of regret and self-blame. In the final analysis, he Zhu Qizhen is not a selfish lone husband, and every time he dreams back late at night over the years, he will also remember the big mistake he made and regret it.

And today, being exposed so ruthlessly by Lu Zhen had a particularly huge impact on him, so that he couldn't even say half a word of rebuttal.

"Now, there is an opportunity for you to make up for your mistakes here, and I hope that the Emperor Taishang will not let the people of the world down." Seeing this, Lu Zhen put forward his request with a solemn expression.
