Chapter 97: The Change of the Palace Forbidden

Wrong?

As soon as he said this, Shi Chang looked in the direction of his hand, and saw that on one side of the square, about dozens of ordinary people gathered together, kneeling on the ground in the direction of the palace.

Isn't it any different?

Shi Chang frowned, and was about to scold the guard, when suddenly, he seemed to notice something unusual.

These people ...... No crying!

It stands to reason that the people gathered in this square tonight are all expressing their condolences, and everyone has a sad look on their faces.

Although the group also knelt on the ground, none of them cried out loud, and there was not much sadness on their faces, as if they had just come to meditate, and they were all in unison, and several of them had a short stick in their hands.

What is this for?

Shi Chang was a little puzzled, thinking that tonight's situation was special, and he wanted to come forward to interrogate, but he was stopped by the guard next to him.

"What for?" Shi Chang glared at him fiercely.

The janissary glanced at the side carefully, then lowered his head and whispered, "Chief, the little ones just saw the things in their hands and lit up!" ”

"Bright light?" Shi Chang was puzzled, and then as if he remembered something, his eyes suddenly widened, and he said in surprise: "You mean ......?"

The janissary nodded and whispered, "Chief, this is unusual, they have a guy in their hands, should we tell the Commander?" ”

Lord Archon......

Shi Chang pondered for a moment, and then shook his head, the Praetorian Guard is divided into three parts, respectively responsible for access control, patrol, and guard, each with a commander, not under each other, it can be said that the status is very high, this little thing is ......

With a greeting, Shi Chang led more than a dozen palace gate guards, pretending to be nothing, and then walked towards the group of people.

One-step, two-step, three-step......

More than a dozen palace guards counted their steps, always paying attention to the reaction of the group......

Hula!

Suddenly, five or six groups of people stood in the square at the same time.

More than a dozen palace guards were shocked at the same time, and Shi Chang hurriedly shouted: "Quick! Ring the bell! ”

Immediately, the guards at the palace gate hurriedly rang a small bell beside them.

"Bell, bell, bell—"

Suddenly, the rapid bell rang, and a group of patrolling guards around heard the news and ran over, and the guards on duty also cheered up, one by one, paying full attention, carefully observing the surrounding movements.

For a while, there was a tense and murderous atmosphere at the gate of the palace, and the guards everywhere were urgently mobilized, and the three commanders returned to their respective positions and were ready to fight.

At this time, I saw that on the other side of the square, a group of soldiers rushed out, took off their civilian clothes outside, and revealed their uniform military armor.

"Ahh

"What are they going to do, Your Majesty the Emperor—"

"What's going on—"

The ordinary people kneeling in the square were suddenly shocked, not knowing what was going on and why so many soldiers and soldiers suddenly appeared.

"Poof—"

"Qiang—"

With a few sounds, a few soldiers in the lead grabbed a few ordinary people and brutally killed them.

"Murder!"

"Ahh

In an instant, screams rang out, and the people finally understood what was happening, and they fled in all directions, crying and screaming.

Fortunately, those soldiers seemed to just want to expel these ordinary people, so they did not go on a killing spree, but focused their attention on the palace gate.

After a while, a middle-aged man slowly walked out of the back of the team, dressed in a luxurious dragon robe and crown robe, followed by several women dressed as palace maids, and slowly walked to the front.

Pan King!

Robes!

What the Pan King was wearing turned out to be a dragon robe!

This scene directly stunned the guards guarding the palace gate, the dragon robe is a symbol of imperial power, only His Majesty the Emperor is qualified to wear it, King Pan, as a prince, openly exceeded the system, and his intention has been called out.

Rebel!

"Who's coming?" Zhang Hengren, the commander in charge of guarding the palace gate, stood on the city wall, waved his big hand, and a row of archers pulled their bows and arrows, aiming at the soldiers in the square.

"Bold! This is the new emperor of my Great Cangguo, and you are so rude! An old man stood up and shouted a shout.

Lord Shangguan?

Everyone was shocked and looked at each other, because this old man was none other than Shangguan Mingwen, who everyone often saw!

How could the head of the family, one of the four major gates, the lord of the dignified official department, stand with a group of anti-thieves?

Could it be that the Shangguan family also participated in the rebellion?

"Lord Shangguan, I don't want to embarrass you, please take someone back, don't disturb Your Majesty." Zhang Hengren persuaded.

"Hahahaha!" On the square, Shangguan Mingwen laughed: "Zhang Hengren, as the commander of the palace gate, don't you even know the dragon robe!" Today, His Majesty the Emperor has suffered outside the city, before his death was passed down in His Royal Highness the King of Pan, and now we are complying with the edict of the first emperor, supporting the new emperor to enter the palace and ascend the throne as the emperor. ”

"Nonsense!" Zhang Hengren was annoyed, his cheeks turned red, and he shouted: "Your Majesty's holy body is healthy, and you are in the palace with a good dignity, but you and others have openly rebelled and claimed to be the emperor in vain!" Quickly retreat, you can tell Your Majesty and fall lightly! ”

Shangguan Mingwen was disdainful, looked at the city tower with a squint, and snorted coldly: "Hmph! You are a small commander of the Praetorian Guard, you dare to disobey the edict of the first emperor, do you want to rebel! ”

When Zhang Hengren heard this, he drew his sword and scolded: "Ah! Shangguan old thief, don't frame us and other loyal guards! Your Shangguan family has been favored by the emperor for generations, and you are so ungrateful, everyone will be punished! ”

"Hahaha! It's ridiculous, we are hereditary lords, royal relatives and nobles, what right do you have to kill us! ”

"Humph! Shangguan old thief, you can listen well! I, Zhang Hengren, am the personal guard of the first emperor, and I am ordered by His Majesty to patrol the palace gate, if I kill you and others, I am eliminating harm for the country and being loyal to the first emperor! Today, if you want to enter the palace, you must first step through my corpse! ”

Zhang Hengren scolded at the top, and made a passionate statement, so that the surrounding guards were also boiling when they heard it, most of the people who could become the Praetorian Guards were born in the first emperor's personal guards, or they were the descendants of the guards or orphans raised by the palace, they have been influenced by the idea of loyalty to the monarch since they were young, and at this moment, inspired by these words, they are all firm, gritting their teeth, and they can't wait to kill these traitors in the city one by one!

On the square, Shangguan Mingwen was silent, and the two thousand rebels looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.

After all, there are more than 1,000 Praetorian Guards in the palace, and there are layers of palace walls, which are tall and steep, and if they are attacked, not to mention the heavy casualties, it is not known whether they can be successfully captured.

Pan Wang stood in the middle of the soldiers in a dragon robe, his face gloomy, and he clenched his fists.

Originally, the plan was seamless and interlocking, just by posing the corpse of the little emperor, it was possible to easily disintegrate the fighting spirit of the palace guards, enter the palace smoothly, and then ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor, and the edict to the whole country, a perfect change to seize the throne.

But I didn't expect that the most critical step went wrong, and dozens of well-trained players went to assassinate an emperor who was privately interviewed by Weifu, and all of them went back without returning!

Slippery world!

Since dozens of assassins died, until now, everyone didn't know what happened, only when they investigated later, they found a bloody arrow in the grass next to it, and there were coarse cloth crumbs on the side, and later there was news that several female dependents had returned to the city, so it was almost certain that the person who was hit by the poisoned arrow was the little emperor!

So, is the little emperor dead or alive now? He must have died of poison, right?

King Pan was very nervous and trembling all over, after all, he was just an idle prince, and he was a good hand at bullying the people to have fun, but to say that he wanted to launch a palace change, he still lacked some heroic spirit.

Worried, he quietly turned his face sideways, looked at an old man next to him out of the corner of his eye, and his heart was even more drumming.
