Chapter 169: Forcing the Palace (II)
"Oh no! Oh no! ”
The people outside the temple gate shouted loudly, successfully drawing everyone's attention to the temple gate again.
When the people who came to see the main hall, there were a lot of armor soldiers who had gathered, and they were obviously stunned.
Even what he wanted to say before was swallowed back by him.
For a moment, the man stared at the courtier in the hall, and the courtier stared at the man who came running.
Xia Huan, who was standing on top of the main hall, seemed to have thought of something, and teased King Zhao: "King Zhao doesn't want to know, what is that person doing?" ”
King Zhao quietly glanced at Xia Huan, and Xia Huan showed a hint of amusement, and hurriedly shouted at the people outside the hall: "Pass, pass quickly!" ”
"Whoa!"
A eunuch next to King Zhao hurriedly ran down and brought the person over.
"What?" King Zhao straightened the hem of his clothes slightly and asked the people below.
"King, king, for some reason, the Chu army outside has surrounded the palace again. Moreover, this time it was not only the Xuanjia Shenwu Army that came, but even the Sanchuan Army also came. There are also a lot of ladders. ”
After a brief period of shock, the visitor said everything he wanted to say in a row.
However, he finished speaking, as if he had let go of the pressure in his heart. But then it was the turn of the ministers of the court to be impatient.
"Didn't the Chu army retreat?"
"Did they know what was going on in the palace and came to the rescue?"
"It's over, it's all over!"
"Let's do what King Zhou said!"
"That's right! Right! Right! Find out the guilty! ”
The ministers exploded the pot with their mouths, and soon, everyone turned their heads at Zhao Shu, who collapsed on the ground.
"You, you!"
Zhao Shu, who fell to the ground, had to endure physical pain and the fear of death on the one hand, and the whole person seemed to be fished out of water.
And King Zhao was also restless after hearing the news. looked at Xia Huan, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.
It's a pity that Xia Huan turned a blind eye.
"Your Majesty, the minister thought that it was the arrival of the Shenwu Army that retreated the Han Army. It is a matter of course for the Shenwu army to enter the city, but Xiangguo tried his best to prevent it, and his heart was unpredictable! ”
Finally, in the midst of the buzzing voices, a person stood up, pointed to Zhao Shu who fell to the ground, and said indignantly.
This person's name is Li Yan, and he can be regarded as a Zhao Guo office, and his status is not low.
Therefore, it is also a bit powerful to speak.
Seeing that someone took the lead, the other courtiers also hurriedly echoed.
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
Soon, the call to put the charge on Zhao Shu's head became louder and louder, and in the end, almost all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty stared at Zhao Shu viciously. It was as if there was a lot of hatred between Zhao Shu and them.
Listening to the scolding of his former subordinates and flatterers, Zhao Shu knew that the only one who could save him at this time was King Zhao.
Zhao Shu raised his head, his face, pale from pain and death, as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.
"The King's ......"
Zhao Shu shouted his last cry for help to King Zhao like a dying person.
King Zhao hesitated, looking at Zhao Shu's hopeful gaze and the unanimous condemnation of the courtiers, King Zhao didn't know how to choose.
And Xia Huan, who was standing beside King Zhao, didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, so he just waited for it. Give King Zhao enough time and be full of choices.
I don't know how long time has passed, for the courtiers, it seems to be a moment, but for King Zhao, it seems like a whole year has passed.
"Report!"
Outside the main hall, there was another hurried shout.
"The Chu army has begun to attack! The Chu army has begun to attack! ”
The people who came this time had already shouted before they could enter the main hall.
Suddenly, everyone's faces turned pale.
What is the combat effectiveness of Zhao Jun, everyone knows in their hearts.
Even if the so-called palace guard is slightly stronger, it is just that the weapons and armor are a little better, and in terms of the will to fight, it is actually about the same.
And the Shenwu Army of Chu is a famous military brigade. It is estimated that it will not take an hour or two for the gate of King Zhao's palace to be breached.
At that time, the red-eyed Chu people who killed them would no longer have so many scruples.
Therefore, at this moment when every second counts, the people in the palace also began to force King Zhao.
"Please let the king deal with such half-hearted people!"
"Except for Zhao Shu, Qingjun's side!"
King Zhao, who was difficult to offend, closed his eyes, and in the end, I don't know whether it was the persecution of the courtiers or the fear of death, King Zhao finally waved his hand.
Almost at the moment when King Zhao waved his hand, Zhao Shu lay on the ground completely as if all his strength had been drained.
He's done......
"The widow has done as you say, and please calm King Zhou's anger!" Letting go of the last bottom line, King Zhao just wants to have a lifetime at the moment.
Xia Huan looked at Sun Qian below and nodded slightly.
Sun Qian arched his hand, and then lifted Zhao Shu, who was already like a dead man, and walked towards the outside of the palace gate.
Many ministers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they watched Sun Qian's movements.
At least, today, their lives have been saved.
Now, as long as you are a clear-eyed person, you can see that the Zhao State has been taken over by the Chu State.
At this time, if someone can hug Xia Huan's thigh, the vacant position of Xiangguo may be his.
Moreover, after today's incident, King Zhao's power will definitely be greatly reduced. Perhaps, the person who becomes Xiangguo can be the real King of Zhao.
However, the courtiers, who had saved their lives, also regained their quiet at this time, and each of them bowed their heads silently. It seems that no one covets the position of the prime minister.
"King Zhou, have you ever been angry?" King Zhao, whose face had recovered a trace of blood, quietly probed Xia Huan at this time.
"There's no hurry." Xia Huan responded.
Looking at Xia Huan's immobile body, King Zhao didn't know why, his heart calmed down a little, and he began to get nervous again.
About an hour later, Sun Qian, who had left, returned to the hall again.
"Why did you go so long?" Xia Huan, who was above the main hall, asked Sun Qian.
"Your Royal Highness, when the last general went to the palace gate, he found that many of the palace gate guards were Zhao Shu's henchmen. In order to protect the king of Zhao from the retaliation of Zhao Shu's henchmen, the last general had already ordered a large army and took over the palace. ”
"What!"
King Zhao stood up in shock. However, he soon sat down weakly.
"Please rest assured, King Zhao, I waited for the Chu army, but I just took over the outermost palace wall, and the inner perimeter of the deep courtyard was not close to the slightest!" Sun Qian said very understandingly.
