Chapter Fifty-Nine: Storming the Yan Palace
There was a half-bang in the room, and the lights suddenly went out, so it should be that the maid had already dressed and was about to come out.
Yang Lian approached quietly, and when the maid came out, he suddenly covered the maid's mouth. The maid was frightened, and the lantern in her hand fell to the ground, and the candle lit the lantern and burned.
"Don't be afraid, I have no ill intentions, I'll let you go by asking a few questions." Yang Lian said in a low voice.
The maid's eyes widened, and when she saw a shallow scar on Yang Lian's face, she couldn't help but shake her body and softened. Yang Lian struggled to hold this Wen Yu Manbo, felt a little headache, helped her to the side and sat down, Yang Lian looked at her coldly.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you. I'll ask you a few questions, and you'll just answer them. Yang Lian said in a low voice.
The maid was covered with her mouth, and she could only blink her eyes when she heard the words, indicating her agreement. Yang Lian's hand was still on the maid's white and slender neck, and he didn't let his guard down at all, he let go of his hand and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, where do you know the woman that King Yan captured?" ”
The maid nodded, and also said in a low voice: "I know, she was locked up by the little prince." ”
"Where are you locked up?" Yang Lian asked.
The maid pointed ahead and said, "Turn left in front, which one with the lights on is where Miss Zeng lives." “
Yang Lian looked at her, sneered, and said, "If you dare to lie to me, I will kill you." ”
"How dare the slave lie to you." The maid was very nervous, and her body trembled.
Yang Lian raised his hand, slapped her unconscious, dragged her back to the house and placed it, and then walked forward, after turning left, there was a room with lights on, faintly, a figure was shaking, Yang Lian walked over quietly, found a hidden place, still pierced the window paper with his fingers, and carefully looked at the situation in the house.
In the room, sure enough, it was Zeng Yiling, who was pacing in the room, but there was no anxiety on her face at all. Yang Lian looked at it carefully for a while, and found that Zeng Yiling was the only one in the room, and when he saw that the window on one side was not closed, he climbed through the window and entered.
Zeng Yiling was startled, his footsteps moved quickly, and when he was about to make a move, he heard Yang Lian shout and said, "It's me, Yang Lian." ”
"You're here?" Zeng Yiling frowned and sneered: "Are you used to entering other people's rooms in the middle of the night?" ”
Yang Lian shook his head and said, "There are too many things during the day, and I only got the news an hour or two ago. ”
Zeng Yiling's eyes softened, looked at Yang Lian, smiled slightly, and said, "You finally came quickly." ”
Yang Lian shook his head and said, "I don't understand, with your skills, it doesn't seem to be difficult to leave." ”
"It's not that hard. However, don't you think this is the best time to strike at Li Hongji? Zeng Yiling smiled.
"You mean?" Yang Lian asked.
"Li Hongji is not only the prince, but also the eldest son of the emperor, with his identity, doing this kind of thing, once Li Jing learns about it, what will he think? In advance, I have already made arrangements to say that it is your fiancée, and in this case, Li Hongji is still robbing him, which is very unfavorable to him as far as public opinion is concerned. What is needed now is that if this matter is made bigger, the worse it will be for Li Hongji. ”
Yang Lian smiled bitterly and said, "I have also thought about this truth, but now things have changed slightly. If you still go according to this plan, I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate. ”
"What's changed?" Zeng Yiling asked.
"In view of the success of the negotiations with the Han Kingdom, Your Majesty personally gave me the marriage of Princess Huairou. Now the decree has been read. Yang Lian shook his head.
"You accepted it?" Zeng Yiling's face was slightly unhappy.
"Yes." Yang Lian didn't want to explain more, so he answered directly.
"Hmph." Zeng Yiling snorted coldly, his brows furrowed, and after a while, he said, "Things have come to this point, you must not go back." I'll tell you the truth, Li Hongji often sends people to spy on me, maybe he has seen through my identity. ”
Yang Lian's eyes widened and said, "Is this true?" ”
"Naturally, it's serious, I lied to you, what's the benefit?" Zeng Yiling glanced at Yang Lian, and there was blame in his eyes.
Yang Lian clenched his fists and said, "I understand." With that, he walked out quickly.
"What do you want?" Zeng Yiling saw Yang Lian leaving, hurriedly caught up a few steps, and asked.
"You'll know tomorrow, you have a good rest first, and wait to see a good show tomorrow." Yang Lian quickly disappeared into the night.
Yang Lian returned to the inn, it was already the beginning of the morning, Lin Renzhao had not slept yet, the two chatted for a while, Yang Lian hurriedly washed up, then lay down to rest, and slept for almost two hours, it was already the middle of the day. Yang Lian summoned Wang Hu and Zhao Peng, and asked the two of them to bring the armor and put it on for him.
Wearing shining armor, with a long knife, and an iron helmet on his head, he was majestic and spirited.
Lin Renzhao looked at Yang Lian's fully armed appearance and asked, "Have you really thought about it?" ”
"I've figured it out." Yang Lian smiled slightly, this matter is simple and simple, there is no need to think about it so complicated, now he is just giving it a go.
Lin Renzhao said: "I'll go with you." ”
"No, I'll take care of this matter with all my might, and if there are too many people, it's not good." Yang Lian shook his head, as he spoke, the armor had already been put on, Yang Lian pulled out the long knife, took aim, and inserted the long knife back into the scabbard, and then strode out of the room.
Chen Tie had already led the war horse and waited outside the door, Yang Lian turned over and rode up, and said, "I'm leaving." ”
Riding a war horse and galloping on the street, attracting a lot of attention along the way, Lin Renzhao called Chen Tie and whispered, Chen Tie took the order, walked quickly, and went straight to the barracks.
Yang Lian rode a war horse, very majestic towards the Yan Wangfu galloped, along the way, made chickens fly and dogs jumped, many people scolded angrily, some felt strange, spread their legs and followed, how can the two legs run over the war horse, someone riding a donkey, or riding a horse, followed behind Yang Lian, to see a good show.
When Yang Lian arrived at Yanwang's Mansion, it was noon, when there were the most people, Yang Lian looked coldly at the door of Yanwang's Mansion, two big lions were at the door, looking mighty. The lantern hanging at the gate has been extinguished, and the plaque on top of it is painted with gold, which looks very magnificent.
When Yang Lian gradually stopped in Yanwang's Mansion, many people were taken aback, thinking that this person actually came to Yanwang's Mansion?
Yang Lian slowly rode his horse close to the gate, and suddenly shouted: "The people of Yanwangfu, all come out for me!" ”
At this time, it was a lively time, so the Yanwang Mansion was not closed, and when they heard the voice, several people in the Yanwang Mansion all looked at Yang Lian and were very puzzled.
A person who looked like a housekeeper walked over, looked Yang Lian up and down, sneered, and said, "Who are you who dare to make noise in front of the Yanwang Mansion?" ”
Yang Lian looked at him coldly, with murderous aura in his eyes, he had killed people, his eyes were naturally extremely sharp, the housekeeper glanced at it, and was a little afraid in his heart, but when he thought about it, this was in the Yanwang Mansion, and there were more than 100 guards in the Yanwang Mansion, should you be afraid of this person?
Thinking of this, the housekeeper laughed and said, "Don't get out of here, otherwise you will feel good!" ”
Yang Lian didn't speak, he suddenly pulled out his long knife, swung forward, slashed the lantern at the door to the ground, and shouted: "Li Hongji, tell him to come out!" ”
"The name of King Yan, how can you call it directly?" The butler shouted.
Yang Lian snorted coldly, clenched the long knife, took a few steps back, looked up at the plaque engraved with the words "Yanwangfu", and threw the long knife violently. The long knife flew out and hit the plaque just as it sounded, and the plaque was shattered and fell to the ground, making several crisp noises, and the plaque was also smashed.
Yang Lian picked up the long knife and looked at the housekeeper coldly, looking murderous.
Seeing that Yang Lian was so powerful, the housekeeper couldn't help but be scared, his voice trembled a little, and he couldn't help asking, "Who are you?" What a guts! ”
"Yang Lian is the envoy of the Shuntian Festival, and Li Hongji can be in the house?" Yang Lian drank again.
The butler took two steps back, glanced left and right, and said, "Come on, take him down!" ”
Yang Lian walked forward quickly, holding a long knife in one hand, and raised one hand suddenly, and slapped the housekeeper several times in a row, making his eyes look like Venus, and he was dizzy and didn't know what to do for a while.
"Dignified King Yan, what kind of identity, he actually dares to rob the general's fiancée, don't you think that the general is weak and can be bullied?" Yang Lian shouted loudly, it can be said that there was a sound on the ground, and the people who were watching the show around suddenly whispered, it turned out that Yan Wang forcibly robbed someone else's fiancée, no wonder this person dared to come to Yan Wang's mansion to demonstrate.
Li Hongji's reputation in Jinling City is not very good, in fact, he has not done too many bad things, but he has always been used to being domineering, and his reputation among the people is not good.
"Nonsense, what kind of identity does King Yan have, how could he rob your fiancée?" The butler immediately retorted loudly.
"Zeng Yiling of Xiaoxiang Pavilion is the fiancée of Ben Jiang, do you dare to say that she is not in your house?" Yang Lian did not show weakness and asked loudly, at this time he guessed that this Li Hongji should not be in the house.
The butler's face changed, and he lost his voice: "How do you know?" He didn't react for a while, he didn't expect that what Yang Lian said was actually Zeng Yiling?
Yang Lian sneered and said, "Now that you admit it yourself, what else do you have to say?" Are you going to give my fiancée out, or are you going to come into the house to pick it up yourself? ”
The housekeeper shook his head, touched the red marks on his face, and suddenly became angry, and shouted, "It's up to you? As he spoke, he retreated quickly, fearing that Yang Lian would beat him again.
Yang Lian walked forward step by step, but shouted in his mouth: "Dignified King Yan, snatching Ben General's fiancée, isn't this bullying?" You thought you could have been deceived, but you were wrong! "Saying that, I want to break into the Yanwang Mansion.
After listening to it, some people around knew Zeng Yiling, and they couldn't help but talk about it, they didn't expect Zeng Yiling to actually love Yang Lian, and some people knew that Yang Lian gave Zeng Yiling lyrics and songs, and suddenly felt that Yang Lian's words were somewhat credible. In Lenovo with the housekeeper's words just now, it can be even more certain that Zeng Yiling was indeed robbed into the mansion by Yan Wangqiang.
"I didn't expect King Yan to be such a person." And there was a discussion among the people.
"Yes, I think he is the dignified King of Yan, what woman can't find it, and she actually likes Miss Zeng of Xiaoxiang Pavilion? If the Son of Heaven knew, he would probably be angry to death. A scholar shook his fan and sneered.
"Hey, King Yan is actually a lustful person." The other laughed, looking obscene.
The people were talking, and at this time, Yang Lian had already carried a long knife and killed it. When two guards heard the news, one left and one right, they wanted to organize Yang Lian, but Yang Lian took up the knife and cut off the spears in the hands of the two. Seeing that Yang Lian was so heroic, the two immediately let out a cry and fled one after another to find rescuers.
Yang Lian carried a long knife and went straight to the backyard, and when he met the guards who came along the way, he was not afraid, and he raised his knife to split. Although there were many people, Yang Lian didn't want to die, and the guards had no way to take him for a while.
"Yang Lian, don't regret it!" Zhu Lingyun, who rushed over after hearing the news, smiled coldly at Yang Lian.
"Is that you?" Yang Lian glanced at him, with a disdainful expression, and said, "Get out of here!" ”
Zhu Lingyun was furious, pulled out his knife, and shouted: "Yang Lian, don't be arrogant, wait for this future to capture you!" ”
"Good time!" After Yang Lian finished saying this, the long knife slashed over in one fell swoop.
Zhu Lingyun didn't expect Yang Lian to say that he would fight, and he didn't give him a chance to breathe at all, and hurriedly raised his knife to greet him. "Bell!" The two men intersected with each other, making a crisp sound.
Yang Lian used a lot of strength in this blow, although Zhu Lingyun's strength is not small, how can he compare with Yang Lian? I only felt numb, and suddenly I lost consciousness. Where will Yang Lian give him a chance, the blade turned, and he slashed again, Zhu Lingyun gritted his teeth and raised his knife to greet him, and when he heard the sound of Jin Ge's resonance, the long knife in his hand was broken in two, and his tiger's mouth was already oozing blood.
Yang Lian stretched out his other hand and knocked on Zhu Lingyun's arm, Zhu Lingyun suddenly felt that his arm was numb, and he couldn't hold the knife anymore and fell to the ground.
"Convincing or not?" Yang Lian sneered, and the long knife was already on Zhu Lingyun's neck.
"Kill if you want to!" Zhu Lingyun's neck twisted, looking like he was not afraid of death.
Yang Lian smiled slightly, killing Zhu Lingyun naturally couldn't be done. Immediately shook his head and said, "Go!" Come with me! As he spoke, he held Zhu Lingyun hostage and walked towards the residence where Zeng Yiling was imprisoned.
Although Zhu Lingyun was not afraid of death, the guards of Yanwang's Mansion all knew him, and Yang Lian actually took him as a hostage, so that the guards threw a mouse trap, and suddenly did not dare to do it again. At this time, there were more and more guards who rushed to hear the news, and there were thirty or forty people densely packed together, with Yang Lian's skills, he was naturally not afraid to fight alone, but after all, there were too many guards, and two fists were difficult to defeat four hands, and Yang Lian still had to suffer.
However, with Zhu Lingyun as a hostage, the situation was much better, and Zhu Lingyun ran to the backyard and arrived at the room where Zeng Yiling was being held, at this time Zeng Yiling had already heard the noisy voice and stood at the door, with two maids beside her.
A guard ran forward very cleverly, pointed his spear at Zeng Yiling, and shouted at Yang Lian: "Yang Lian, if you don't let General Zhu go, I will kill her." ”
"Are you an idiot? King Yan robbed her into the house as his wife, and now you want to kill her? Yang Lian smiled coldly and was unmoved.
Li Hongji's arrest of Zeng Yiling, although many people in the Yan Wangfu knew about it, but only a few people knew the real reason, and the guards really thought that King Yan was going to marry Zeng Yiling. The guard couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, thinking that Yang Lian seemed to have a point.
Without waiting for him to react, Zeng Yiling smiled slightly, stepped forward, and kicked the guard to the ground, "Get out!" (To be continued.) )
