At this time, the big tent was full of dead people, and blood was flowing all over the ground, Zhu Luo endured his disgust and said to Zhu Xin and other generals: "Qi Huan dared to disobey the military order, and now the palace will execute him!" Zhu Xin, you temporarily take the position of Qi Huan's commander-in-chief, and lead the soldiers into the city to quell the rebellion! ”

The big tent has already started, this is in the barracks, and the soldiers of the Xishan camp have been organized by Qi Huan, and they are waiting to enter the city. Now that he found that there was a problem with the big tent, seven or eight hundred soldiers immediately surrounded him, one by one with knives and guns aimed at Zhu Luo and more than 20 of his own soldiers.

Zhu Luo saw that Zhu Xin was still bowing his head and was silent, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Zhu Xin, it was my father who saved your life back then, and now that the crown prince is in danger, do you just watch the prince bleed the court?" Are you worthy of your father's nurturing kindness? ”

Zhu Xin was also very conflicted at this time, it was true that he and Zhu Luo were playmates when they were children, and it was true that they were dissatisfied with Qi Huan, but it didn't mean that they could do anything for Zhu Luo. Now that the crown prince and the king of Qin have started to fight, who knows if that side is wrong and that side is right, if Zhu Xin takes the liberty of leading troops into the city, what if the gang is wrong? The Emperor's wrath was not something he could bear.

A general on the side usually befriends Zhu Xin, but now seeing that Zhu Xin is in trouble, he can't help but step forward and whisper: "Lord Zhu, if you don't agree to the eldest princess now, we will die on the spot immediately!" ”

Zhu Xin frowned and said: "But it's not right to agree, who knows what's going on in the city, what if you and I do something wrong?" It's not good to get involved in the dispute between the princes. ”

"My lord, no matter what, there must be chaos in the city now, there should be nothing wrong with us entering the city in the name of quelling the chaos, and the prince is the prince after all, and it is reasonable that the emperor is not listening to the prince!"

The general's words moved Zhu Xin, now that the emperor is not in Beijing, since the emperor is not there, no matter how big the mess is, it doesn't matter, it's nothing more than the death of a few ordinary people, as long as he controls the prince and the king of Qin, and then waits for the emperor to return to Beijing, so that even if he has no merit, he must not be guilty.

Zhu Xin made up his mind, walked out of the big tent and shouted to those soldiers: "The Qi Huan Party attached to the King of Qin to rebel, and now it has been condemned, and the general has received a military order from the Minister of the Guard, let the general temporarily take the post of chief soldier and lead the army into the city to restore order!" ”

Zhu Xinming knew that the order brought by Zhu Luo was fake, but at this time, the fake was stronger than nothing, anyway, it was printed with your Zhu Hongyi's big seal, and if something happened, you Zhu Hongyi would naturally bear it.

Zhu Luo was overjoyed when he heard Zhu Xin say this, and hurriedly said, "Okay! Hurry up and bring the troops into the city, and the palace will show you merit in front of the prince! ”

The Xishan camp is located in Xishan, outside Beijing, less than 20 miles away from Beijing. Zhu Jiang, who was waiting for reinforcements and artillery, had already fought from Shenshi to Xushi.

As time passed, the good news came one by one, and Zhu Jiang received the news that the cannon had been transported to Dongcheng, which was only a few hundred meters away from Donghua Gate. There are also reinforcements from the Xishan battalion that have also entered the city from Xizhimen, and they will be able to rush to Donghuamen in half an hour.

Zhu Jiang was overjoyed when he got the good news, and immediately ordered his soldiers to step up the siege of the city, so that the Jinyi guards on the city wall immediately couldn't stand it.

These brocade guards are all good hands, but they are good at individual fighting, and this kind of battlefield fighting is not as good as Zhu Jiang and Ma Rufeng's personal soldiers. At first, I was able to rely on my personal martial arts for a while, but after a long time, I slowly showed fatigue.

Seeing that his subordinates couldn't hold on, the Jinyi Wei Qianhu who was guarding the city hurriedly ordered someone to send a letter to Zhu Poster in the East Palace, asking him to organize people to help.

There are only two thousand brocade guards in the palace, except for Zhu Hai, who guards the city gates everywhere, has been sent to Donghua Gate, where are there any reinforcements to send? There was no way, Zhu Hai could only personally take the hundred young eunuchs of his East Palace to go up.

When the brocade-clothed guard Qianhu saw that Zhu Hai had personally brought someone here, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the last general is incompetent, and he really can't hold on!" ”

Zhu Hai patted Qianhu's shoulder and said, "You did a good job, it's very good to use more than a thousand people to block Zhu Jiang's three or four thousand people from entering the palace!" ”

Qianhu looked at the situation under the city and said, "Your Highness, now Donghua Gate can't be guarded, so you can only retreat to Dong'an Gate!" ”

Donghua Gate is the east gate of the imperial city, Dong'an Gate is the east gate of the palace city, and it is also the last line of defense of the imperial palace. Zhu Hai sighed and was about to agree, when the battle situation under the city changed, a group of soldiers killed from the north, and Zhu Jiang's rear team was killed by surprise, and soon panicked.

There were not many reinforcements coming, probably seven or eight hundred, but they were all ferocious and abnormal, and Zhu Jiang's rear team was killed and retreated one after another.

At this time, it was already dark, and it was too far away to see that it was a helper from there, but Zhu Hai was still very happy to see someone coming to help.

Zhu Hai was happy Zhu Jiang was naturally unhappy, he was very close to those people, and at first glance, it was Li Yuanyin, the king of Jianning County. Zhu Jiang didn't expect Li Yuanyin to be able to intervene, and scolded: "Li Yuanyin, you six-surnamed family slave, you also came over to spoil my good deeds!" ”

Li Yuanyin was originally not surnamed Li, he was an orphan taken in by Li Chengdong in Henan, plus Li Chengdong was a rogue at the beginning, then took refuge in Nanming, then took refuge in the Manchu Dynasty, and finally took refuge in Zhu Hongsan, this is a typical capricious villain, so Zhu Jiang scolded him for being a slave with six surnames.

Li Yuanyin hates people mentioning his family history the most, now that Li Chengdong is dead, Li Yuanyin originally wanted to change back to his original surname, but this prince of Jianning County is Li Chengdong, and if you change your surname, you can't inherit the title of county king, so Li Yuanyin has no choice but to go on like this.

Now that Li Yuanyin's scar was opened by Zhu Jiang again, Li Yuanyin scolded loudly: "Zhu Jiang, you scolded me for being a slave with six surnames, but I am much stronger than you, a rebel who wants to murder the prince!" ”

As soon as Li Yuanyin opened his mouth, Zhu Hai on the city wall heard it, but he didn't expect that it was Li Yuanyin who came to help him. You must know that Li Yuanyin's wife Zhu Yu and the third child Zhu Huai are brothers and sisters, and Li Yuanyin is usually lukewarm to the prince, and he can't help today.

Li Yuanyin's coming to help the prince now is not because of his kindness, but because of Tong Yangjia's strategy. Li Yuanyin took 500 soldiers in the palace to the palace of the king of Chu to help guard the palace, and at the same time paid close attention to the battle situation in Dongcheng.

As time passed, seeing that the prince was about to be unable to hold on, Tong Yangjia ordered Li Yuanyin to lead troops to help the prince.

Tong Yangjia's order made Zhu Huai, the king of Chu, very puzzled, and he asked: "Grandpa, aren't we scheduled to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" Why help the boss? ”

"King Chu, now that the prince is in crisis, you can reach out to help the emperor to leave an impression in the emperor's heart that he takes care of the overall situation, this time the old minister estimates that the king of Qin is out of play, the next step is that the king of Chu and the prince are fighting, if you don't leave a good impression in the emperor's heart, how can you fight with the prince? And the crown prince can't fail too quickly, if the prince fails now, it will be difficult to ensure that King Qin will turn his attention to deal with King Chu! ”

Zhu Huai heard that it made a lot of sense, the second child could do anything if he killed the red eye, it was better to let the eldest stay for a while, so that the second child would not have the heart to deal with himself. Zhu Huai hurriedly came out and asked his brother-in-law Li Yuanyin to bring all the personal soldiers, as well as the three hundred personal soldiers of the Chu Palace, a total of 800 people to help Zhu Hai.

Although Li Yuanyin's manpower is not as many as Zhu Jiang's, Zhu Jiang's subordinates have been fighting for two hours, and they are already sleepy, Li Yuanyin's subordinates are all fresh troops, plus Li Yuanyin's personal soldiers are all rogues who came out of the pile of dead people back then, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than Jin Shenghuan's personal soldiers, so Zhu Jiang, who fought as soon as he first fought, was defeated and retreated.

Seeing that Zhu Jiang had no choice but to withdraw the soldiers who were attacking the city gate to deal with Li Yuanyin, the pressure on the city wall was sharply reduced, and Zhu Hai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the battle situation was stable again.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from the north, Zhu Jiang was a veteran of the battlefield, and when he heard this movement, he knew that there were many people coming. Now there are reinforcements in the capital, if there are only two large battalions in Xishan and Tongzhou, it should be the people of the Xishan battalion according to the distance. Thinking of this, Zhu Jiang's heart was wide, but there were 10,000 horses in the Xishan camp, even if Li Yuanyin's people could not deal with 10,000 people no matter how much they could fight, it seemed that he had won.

How do you know that the joy is fast and the frustration is also fast, as the reinforcements approached, Zhu Jiang saw that the general led by him was not Qi Huan, but Zhu Luo, who was dressed as a man.

Zhu Jiang knew that something was wrong when he saw Zhu Luo coming, Zhu Luo was Zhu Hai's own sister, and she must have come to represent the Xishan camp falling into the hands of Zhu Hai.

And Zhu Hai on the city wall was overjoyed when he saw his sister coming, but he didn't expect that his sister would be able to lead reinforcements to help him at the most critical time.

Xia Wanchun was also overjoyed when he saw the reinforcements coming, and pulled Zhu Hai and whispered: "Your Highness, give an order to the eldest princess in a while, let them attack Zhu Jiang's team, it is best to leave no one alive and kill the King of Qin!" ”

Zhu Hai was stunned when he heard Xia Wanchun say this, he hated Zhu Jiang, but after all, Zhu Jiang was his brother, the two were only two years apart, when he was a child, Zhu Hai still took Zhu Jiang to play together, but now he wants to kill his own little brother, Zhu Hai inevitably has contradictions in his heart.

Xia Wanchun saw Zhu Hai hesitating and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Shenyang must have already done it, no matter whether the matter can be done or not, King Qin can't stay, only King Qin's death today can be pushed to King Qin, otherwise how can the prince face the death of so many people in the capital!" King Qin was born in the second division, and King Qin has many henchmen in the army, if King Qin is still alive, it will be a disaster, so King Qin must die! And the sons of King Qin can't stay! ”

Zhu Hai's temperament is actually very benevolent, and he feels that he should do the same when he hears Xia Wanchun say this, but his friendship for his brother still makes him unable to do it.

Xia Wanchun said anxiously: "Your Highness, the change in Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate back then killed all the heirs of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and if King Qin succeeds tonight, can the heirs of the prince stay according to his personality?" ”

Zhu Hai was right when he heard it, Zhu Jiang was ruthless, if he won his son tonight, he would definitely be poisoned. Thinking of this, Zhu Hai sighed and said, "Okay, then bother Lao Cungu to issue an order!" ”
