Chapter 822: The Change of Seizing the Door (4)

When the soldiers and horses in Beijing stood out, and the Beijing army was stationed on the main roads, almost controlling the entire city, the changes in the Forbidden City finally unfolded.

Chen Xiang led a team of forbidden troops and quickly came to the South Palace, which has always been regarded as a forbidden place by the people in the palace, and several palace people he met along the way were also ordered by him to be directly detained, and brought to this rather depressing palace together.

When these hundreds of people stood in front of the closed palace gate, many people showed a trace of confusion in their eyes, and they didn't dare to go too far, and some people looked at Chen Xiang with hesitation: "General, do we really want to open the palace gate?" ”

"Of course, Your Majesty has been victimized by traitors and has been imprisoned in this South Palace for many years, don't we feel ashamed as courtiers?" Chen Xiang turned around and said solemnly: "Now, Gonggong Cao will lead us to set things right, eradicate the evil spirits, and return me to a bright and bright world!" Come on, knock open the door of this palace for me! ”

With this order, the soldiers gathered in front of the door first slammed the spirit, and after looking at each other for a moment, finally dozens of people rushed over with a big stride carrying the bumping wood, and in the low shout, the wood slammed into the palace gate, making a dull roar.

Although this Nangong is not an important place in the palace, and the portal has not been repaired for many years, it is still strong. Chen Xiang looked at it and immediately waved his hand again: "Keep banging, use more strength!" Meritorious service, only today! ”

Encouraged and urged by their own generals, those soldiers of the forbidden army plucked up their courage again, and then carried the bumper wood and slammed it into the middle of the two portals in a row. In a series of heavy impacts, the palace gate finally began to shake and crack...... In the end, under the shouts and bangs of the big guys in unison, the gate burst open, completely exposing this cold palace that had been abandoned for many years to the eyes of many soldiers.

In the chorus of cheers of the soldiers, Chen Xiang took the lead and strode inside, shouting loudly as he walked: "Your Majesty, Weichen's rescue is late, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive you!" The voice was so loud that it kept echoing in the originally quiet Nangong Forbidden Garden.

He did this naturally to appease Zhu Qizhen, who had been locked up for many years, after all, he and the others slammed the door and rushed in, which was likely to frighten the Son of Heaven. This is also to make Zhu Qizhen, who is about to become the Son of Heaven again, impress himself, after all, it was he Chen Xiang who led people to rescue him from this cage, and he must be rewarded in the future.

With such a mood, Chen Xiang quickly ran to the bedroom that was in the middle and looked the most magnificent, but at this time it was already quite old and dilapidated. Looking at the palace gate that was still closed, he bowed his head again and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Xiang has come to greet you, and please open the door to see Your Majesty." His voice slowed down a lot, full of respect.

But to his surprise, even so, the bedroom in front of him was still quiet, not to mention that someone opened the door for him, and there was no reaction. This made Chen Xiang feel a little weird, but after all, it was the emperor who lived inside, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he could only call out again: "Please open the door to meet Your Majesty!" At the same time, he also gestured to the subordinates behind him who were full of doubts.

Only then did those soldiers of the forbidden army solemnly bend down and shouted in unison: "Ministers welcome Your Majesty out of the palace!" This voice spread far away, echoing in the silent palace for a long time, maybe even Zhu Qiyu who was far away in the Qianqing Palace could hear it.

But the most deserving response to them was Zhu Qizhen, who was in the dormitory across the door, but was silent. It was only at this time that Chen Xiang realized that something was wrong with the situation, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive the minister for being rude!" As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed the door......

Originally, he planned to press on the door and then open the door, but only this time, the door creaked and opened a gap, which made him follow the force that he was about to send out completely into the void, and also made his heart even tighter: "What's going on?" ”

In his imagination, the door should be locked, after all, who wouldn't bolt the door when they sleep at night? But as a result, this door is just a cover-up, does this prove that the situation inside is a little bad?

Under the turn of his mind, Chen Xiang quickly lowered his shoulders and exerted his strength, and suddenly smashed the door in front of him completely, and then jumped into the dormitory with an arrow step, drew his knife in his hand, and looked around vigilantly. At the same time, the soldiers who followed him after seeing this move of their own general also followed suit, and rushed into it with swords and guns, and the man with the torch illuminated the originally dark and dark dormitory as if it were day.

Then, everyone stayed on the spot, because there was not half a figure in this dormitory. imagined that he should be imprisoned here, and the Emperor Zhu Qizhen, who was waiting for the big guy to come to the rescue, was not here! No wonder Chen Xiang and the soldiers said so much, and there was no reaction at all......

"How...... How so? Chen Xiang was a little hesitant and dazed, and swept his eyes around. But no matter how he looked, there was no one else in this dormitory besides him and his subordinates. Moreover, the dormitory was empty, and it was clear in the light that it was impossible for anyone to hide in a corner somewhere.

"Search for me, and find out Your Majesty after searching through this Nangong!" After being silent for a long time, Chen Xiang came back to his senses, and then gave an order in a loud voice.

The soldiers woke up like a dream, quickly bowed their heads and took orders, and quickly ran outside, running towards the same deserted and dilapidated palaces on the side. After a thud on the door, they quickly rushed in, and then a moment later, quickly ran out again.

Before Chen Xiang could recover from this matter, several subordinates had already come to report with shocked faces: "General, there is no figure in this Nangong, this place is completely empty!" ”

"What?" After Chen Xiang heard this, his body suddenly shook again, and a cool breath suddenly rose from his back, and a strong sense of uneasiness had grabbed his heart. By this time, he had sensed that something was wrong, and it seemed that the situation that he had been in control had begun to move away in another uncontrolled direction......

It wasn't until the subordinates on the side called him a few times in a row that Chen Xiang came back from his fright, and saw everyone looking at him: "General, what should we do next?" ”

yes, what to do? This question also bothered him.

The original plan was to rescue Empress Taishang, take him to the Qianqing Palace to join Cao Jixiang, who also led people to kill him, and then forced the current emperor to abdicate with the soldiers in his hands and the identity of the emperor. In this way, the crucial step in their coup d'Γ©tat was completed, and when it was daybreak, they could gather their ministers and lay this established fact before them.

Based on Cao Jixiang's understanding of the officials of the DPRK and China, the matter has come to this point, and these officials can only accept the facts when they are powerless. After all, Zhu Qizhen's identity is here, and it is naturally not a rebellion for him to become emperor again, and those officials can't raise objections.

At the beginning, Emperor Taizong Zhu Di raised troops and forced his nephew to commit suicide by arson when he entered Nanjing, and when he seized the throne and became emperor, he did not see too many court courtiers stand up to resist, so naturally no one will oppose it today.

But now, this critical step has undergone a major change at the beginning, and the most important Zhu Qizhen is gone! This really surprised Chen Xiang, and it also caught him off guard, and he didn't know how to take the next step.

In the final analysis, he Chen Xiang is just a general of the forbidden army who acts obediently, and he can adapt to ordinary small problems, but when he really encounters such a big variable, he naturally can't react.

After a long time, he said with some hesitation: "Have you all checked out?" Is there really no one else in this Nangong? ”

"General, in addition to digging up the ground, the brothers have searched carefully where they can find, and there is indeed no one, Your Majesty, he is not here at all." The subordinates were also anxious, and hurriedly replied.

"Since this is the case, then ......" There was a tangle on his face again, and Chen Xiang issued a new order: "Let's rush to the Qianqing Palace and join Cao Gonggong!" When things came to this point, the only thing he could do was to meet Cao Jixiang quickly and see how the other party responded.

So, after his order, these hundreds of forbidden soldiers were finally able to leave after staying in the South Palace for nearly half an hour, and quickly rushed to the Qianqing Palace.

And the time they delayed here was really not short, and it was past the time agreed with Cao Jixiang before.

And before that, Gonggong Cao, who was waiting in front of the Qianqing Palace with people, was already a little impatient: "What is this Chen Xiang for?" How could such a major event be delayed? Don't wait for him, anyway, our family has enough troops here, and we don't need them to attack the Qianqing Palace! ”

After making up his mind, he immediately waved his hand: "Everyone follow me, we will eradicate the evil for me today and welcome back Your Majesty!" As he spoke, he had already drawn the sword at his waist and fearlessly rushed towards the Qianqing Palace, which had only a few lights and candles in front of him.

"Kill!" Those palace people and forbidden army soldiers who had been bewitched by it for a long time and thought that they could come out and make meritorious contributions also suddenly shouted, raised the weapons in their hands, and quickly rushed towards the Qianqing Palace, which symbolized the majesty of the Son of Heaven.

When the shouting of killing suddenly sounded, and the sound came to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu's body, who was half leaning on the dragon bed, trembled. His face had turned snow-white, but not because of fear, but because of anger: "Wow, wow, wow." I really didn't expect that in my palace and by my side, there were so many people with wolf ambitions. Say, 'What should I do?' As he spoke, he looked at a man sitting in a chair not far away......
