Chapter 454: Bloodstained Court
On the big night, Wei Shuyu came out of his thatched hut in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and muttered, "What's the matter, junior brother, what is this doing at night." ”
Qin Hao didn't explain, but picked up a bowl full of water on the table and splashed it directly in his face.
"What are you doing?"
"Spirited? Leave immediately when you are in good spirits. ”
"Where are you going?"
"You ride a fast horse, the faster the better, immediately go east to find the saint, Hou Junji rebelled tonight, while rebelling in the city, he also found a few top demon sect masters to assassinate the saint, you tell the saint to be careful, and then go back to the city immediately."
Wei Shuyu's frightened sleepy insects all flew away at once, and blurted out: "It's really fake!" ”
"In the middle of the night, before Master's mausoleum, do you think I'm going to joke with you?"
Wei Shuyu immediately became smart, turned over and said, "Senior brother, don't you go with me?" Why are you going? ”
Qin Hao got on the horse and said without looking back: "I'll go back to the capital to see, no matter what, I can't let Hou Junji involve Li Chengqian." ”
Really, Qin Hao was about to die of worry.
He is not worried about the success of Hou Jun's rally, the people who dare to rebel against Li Shimin in these years are all really crazy people, two groups of gamblers who are eager to lose, desperate to fight a big one, and those with a little common sense know that they will definitely go bankrupt.
However, he was worried that Li Chengqian would be involved.
If others are in Chang'an City, they will naturally be sure to play Hou Junji's suspicious life like a puppet show, but unfortunately others are in Zhaoling, and Xiao Wu's information is really not enough in advance, so there are naturally many uncontrollable factors.
On the way, Qin Hao asked Qin Xiaohao: "What is the situation over there Hou Junji, what are their plans." ”
"With the master of the Demon Sect, he poured out of the nest, assassinated Li Shimin, and once the matter was completed, he immediately started a mutiny, launched a mutiny in Xuanwu Gate, controlled the East Palace, coerced Li Chengqian to take the throne, and then divided his troops to control the mansions of the ministers, and the families of the forbidden army in the two palaces, and then persuaded the army outside the city to surrender in the name of Li Chengqian."
Qin Hao sneered: "He also wants to be Sima Yi to engage in a Gaopingling mutiny?" Is he so sure he can kill the saint? Now the prestige of the saint in the army is stronger than that of Napoleon of the Bourbon dynasty, not to mention that he is still accompanied by tens of thousands of flying horsemen, even if he appears outside the city single-handedly, he may not be able to recover Chang'an City. ”
"I can't figure it out, but they seem to be very sure, and they didn't even ask Xiao Wu, it's mysterious."
"Day damn, no matter, whoever loves to believe in it believes it, anyway, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that Li Shimin will die so easily, the original plan remains the same, tonight Lao Tzu is going to make a break with this old thing!"
…………
Chen Guogong Mansion.
Less than half an hour after Qin Hao returned to Beijing, Hou Junji and the dead soldiers of the Demon Sect also set off.
The night was like water, and two thousand black-clothed dead men marched in the night like two thousand ghosts.
A Wuhou who was patrolling the night happened to run into it, because it was too dark, he only saw Hou Junji, who was walking in the front with bright armor, and before he could see his face clearly, he shouted directly: "What person! ”
With a puff of the knife, Hou Junji raised the knife and fell, and a big head was rushed to the sky by the blood pressure on his neck.
Seeing that the Xuanwu Gate was not far away, Hou Jun pointed his sword and shouted: "The saint died outside the city, we should be succeeded by the crown prince, and the guards will retreat quickly, if there is any resistance, kill!" ”
This Xuanwu Gate was originally an important town guarded by flying horses, looking at the entire history of the Tang Dynasty, almost all coups started here, and the power of the natural guards will not be weak, but now Li Shimin sacrificed to the sky and took away most of the flying horses, and the power left is really not much.
What's more, Hou Junji's voice was so sudden that he directly stunned all the Xuanwu Gate guards.
The saint died?
For a while, all the flying cavalry soldiers were a little dazed, but they heard the voice of a bell shouting: "Hugh wants to listen to his nonsense, Hou Junji is a rebellion!" Kill! ”
Hou Junji never imagined that the soldiers could enter the palace without blood, so he unceremoniously swung his knife and slashed at the soldiers in front of him, and shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way!" ”
…………
Blood.
stained the stairs in front of the Xuanwu Gate red.
The soldiers of the flying cavalry can not be said to be not elite, and it is indeed a battle to the death, but there are too few of them, and the incident happened suddenly, there is no time to form a formation, and the preparation is insufficient.
"Go straight to the East Palace, quick!"
Hou Junji was in high spirits, and although everything had just begun, he felt as if he had already won.
Taking a deep breath, the thick smell of blood, accompanied by the faint fragrance of flowers, rushed straight to his head, and a few butterflies danced just across the thick satin-like night, and hid in the delicate flowerbeds stained with blood.
What a familiar place, everything in front of me is like sixteen years ago, this Taiji Palace is so beautiful, this country is so delicate, this world is so magnificent and charming, why can't he be mine? Why can't it be mine?
Hou Junji walked in the front alone, such a big movement, the entire Beigong was in a mess for a while.
Hou Junji's dead soldiers killed people when they saw them, and people blocked and killed, but they were not without brains, and while killing, they shouted: "The saint died, and I came to protect the crown prince to succeed to the throne, and those who stood in my way died!" ”
"The saint died, and the prince succeeded to the throne, and the one who stood in my way died!"
"The saint died, and the prince succeeded to the throne, and the one who stood in my way died!"
For a while, whether it was a guard or a eunuch in the palace, even the palace maids and concubines were stunned.
Outside the East Palace, his son's excited eyes lit up, and he was about to rush in, but he was stopped by Hou Junji and said: "Li Chengqian is very important and cannot afford to lose, otherwise we can take Chang'an and the world, it is better not to see blood or not to see blood, I will come." ”
After that, Hou Junji was angry and sank into the dantian, and shouted: "Minister, Hou Junji, welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to succeed to the throne." ”
With a bang, the door of the East Palace was kicked open, and it was indeed Li Chengqian, wearing a bright light heavy armor, holding a long sword, standing on it with his head held high, and staring at Hou Junji condescendingly.
"Hou Junji, do you want to coerce Lone to rebel with you?"
Hou Junji said in a deep voice: "The minister doesn't dare, it's just that the saint has died outside the city, as the so-called country can't be left without an owner for a day, and the minister is in chaos to prevent the night mouse generation, so I hereby ask you to succeed to the throne and stabilize the court." ”
Li Chengqian angrily rebuked: "Ridiculous! My father's body is healthy, and it has only been half a month since he went out of the city to worship, how could he suddenly die, it is simply a big joke in the world! ”
Hou Junji said: "However, the saint is self-possessing and brave, and he has led tens of thousands of troops, but he always only brings a hundred horsemen when he travels, and he has been assassinated by the four top masters. ”
"Ridiculous! Nonsense! Nonsense! ”
Hou Junji laughed and said: "Is it a bunch of nonsense, just wait for tomorrow to know, but today, Chang'an City is already in my hands, if His Royal Highness the Prince insists on not believing it, for the sake of the world, the minister has no choice but to force it, and please don't mislead others and yourself." ”
