Hearing this, Zhang Yuan hurriedly lowered his head and wanted to agree, but before he could speak, he heard Liu Qi continue to order, saying:

"You order it again, and order the army to continue to send more men to each gate, attack the door with all its might, and enter the palace as soon as possible, so as not to encounter an accident for the emperor, and the first to enter the palace will be rewarded!" Speaking of this, Liu Qi's eyes flashed with a fierce light, his face became more and more gloomy, and he said coldly: "At the same time, order all the people and horses to disperse and guard all the palace gates, in case someone takes advantage of the chaos to escape, if anyone walks out of the palace gate, no matter who it is, kill them!" ”

Hearing these words, Zhang Yuan's body was shocked, he raised his head and said with some hesitation: "Your Highness, there are many people in the palace, and most of them are relatives of the emperor, all of them are your ......."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan's voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end, it was inaudible.

This sentence was a bit presumptuous, but Liu Qi did not blame Zhang Yuan, his face was expressionless, and he only replied lightly:

"The palace has long been controlled by the traitor Liu Zhao brothers, and now the father is in danger, and he is anxious to wait for the king to come to the rescue, but the king has been in the deep palace in the past, and has never seen the foreign ministers, because the foundation is not deep, the strength is weak, the manpower is insufficient, and the troops in his hands are only enough to rush open the palace gate to rescue the holy car, if they are allowed to break out of the palace, once they go out to ventilate the news, gather the party to come to support, and defeat the army of the king Qinwang, then the father is in danger, and the empire is in danger, so the king would rather kill his relatives by mistake and bear the infamy, and he must also do these things, Do you understand? ”

Zhang Yuan nodded heavily, and replied loudly: "My subordinates understand!" ”

Liu Qi bowed his head slightly and said, "Go ahead." ”

Zhang Yuan did not listen to the order to leave, but hesitated for a while and said, "Your Highness, my subordinates still have something to say." ”

A trace of impatience flashed in the depths of Liu Qi's eyes, but he couldn't see it on his face at all, and replied: "What's the matter, just say it." ”

Zhang Yuan pondered for a moment and replied: "Your Highness, if you send all the soldiers out to attack the gate, the garrison around you will be very weak, and your subordinates are afraid that the enemy will take advantage of the weakness and put Your Highness in danger." ”

Liu Qi shook his head and said: "We have so many spies distributed in Luojing City, if there is news, we will naturally know in advance, and the time to withdraw them is more than enough, not to mention that we are unprepared, and when they react, the palace has been knocked down by us, and the most important thing now is to rush into the palace before dawn and rescue Your Majesty." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Then he said goodbye to Liu Qi and turned around to give the order.

Soon, the various gates of the palace attacked like a tide, and Liu Qi's soldiers and horses stormed the palace like crazy demons.

The palace gate, separated by a door.

Listening to Liu Qibing, who was attacking the palace like crazy outside the door, Liu Ying's face didn't even have a chance to turn white.

Although this beautiful princess was already tired, her face was still full of unyielding fortitude, and she never thought of giving up, right?

How can a good man be inferior to a woman!

That's what all the defenders had in mind.

Liu Ying's voice was already hoarse, and she tried her best to mobilize the soldiers in her hands, and then kept transferring the reserve troops to the most dangerous places.

There are already palace gates besieged by the enemy, showing signs of collapse, but there are not many troops left in Liu Ying's hands.

Although the palace is still in her hands, how long can she hold on to it on her own?

She took a deep breath and took a step forward in the direction of the city gate that had been breached just now, but just after taking a few steps, she felt that her feet were soft, and she didn't know whose corpse she stepped on, soft.

She couldn't help but look at the situation under her feet, now the enemy has just rushed in a few people, and she has already left so many corpses on her side, if it takes a while, the dead people here will be several times or even dozens of times under the soles of her feet, thinking of this, looking at the eyes outside the palace A little more worried, a little more afraid.

Outside the door, Liu Qi's troops had already begun to attack the door with giant logs, and the crazy soldiers shouted slogans, and on this night like ink, they were attacking the most sacred place in the empire.

Liu Ying suddenly felt a little dizzy, the over-tense battle made her overdrawn, she reached out and leaned on the wall next to the door to calm down.

The smell of blood rushed to the nostrils, the sound of killing kept echoing in the ears, and everyone was smearing their madness with blood on this hellish night.

The four gates of the palace have begun to crumble, and all the defenders are locked in a bitter battle under the increasing onslaught of the enemy, and if any gate is breached, the most majestic palace on the continent will be completely lost.

At that time, who will the Han River fall into?

Thinking of this, she raised her head, squinted her eyes and looked out of the door, her eyes seemed to penetrate the palace gate, and looked at the woman who had been indifferently silent not far behind Liu Qi - Tuoba Yu.

She shook her head and smiled bitterly, for herself, for the country, and for Liu Qi, her brother-in-law, presumably at this moment, she is still looking forward to the yellow robe and the face of the south.

But he never thought that everything he was doing now would make a wedding dress for someone else.

Time passed quickly, and the time of a stick of incense seemed like a blink of an eye.

The palace was still in Liu Ying's hands, but the defenders had obviously fallen into decline, and more and more attacking soldiers rushed in, although they were quickly killed, but the defenders also sent a lot of corpses.

And the palace gate was also knocked into the wood, and a huge opening was opened, which was shocking at a glance.

The sound of killing shook the sky, and countless lives fought each other between these dimensions, and both sides paid the price of death for the current situation.

At the moment of their death, does anyone ever wonder what the meaning of their life is?

Before they die, will they think of their families and the future situation of the Han Empire?

Or is death simply a relief for them?

Of course, Liu Qi didn't think about these boring questions, for him, the dead soldiers are just broken tools, if they are broken, they will be thrown away, and it is a big deal to look for them again, he has more urgent things to care about, and the palace in front of him is the place he desires the most in his heart.

In his eyes, as long as he breaks through the city gate, he can ascend the throne as the emperor, be worshiped by thousands of people, and be the overlord of the Quartet.

He stared at the palace that was about to be breached, suddenly turned around, and smiled at Zhang Yuan: "Although the movement of the army is a little slower than the time expected by this king, it has not been delayed for too long, and it will not be long after you look at the time of a stick of incense, I will be able to see my father." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled awkwardly and opened his mouth just about to speak, but before he could speak, he heard hurried footsteps behind him, and at the same time heard a sharp shout: "Your Highness!" ”

Everyone looked back, only to see a spy after passing the guard's inspection, he ran to Liu Qi's side as fast as possible, he didn't have time to kneel, he didn't even salute, and gasped: "Your Highness Qiqi, I found an army on Zhenxi Road, there are about 3,000 people advancing here, General Chen Ao has transferred all the peripheral soldiers to block it, but they are outnumbered, and the whole army is almost wiped out in an instant!" And, and ......"

When Liu Qi heard this, he panicked, and subconsciously looked at Tuoba Yu beside him.

Tuoba Yu nodded at Liu Qi's gaze, there was no panic on his face, and he just said lightly to the spy: "When is it, you are still negotiating under Your Highness, if you miss a big thing, I will be the first to cut you." ”

Only then did the spy come to his senses, and hurriedly replied: "And they made a big noise, shouting while walking, saying that Your Highness is trying to usurp the throne and force the palace to seek power, and now the emperor has been given by Your Highness, give," Speaking of this, his voice trembled violently, and he "gave" for a long time before continuing: "Give the assassination ......"

There was a dead silence, and almost everyone who heard this sentence looked at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's face turned pale, his lips trembled twice, his face was no longer as calm as before, and he looked at Tuoba Yu as if asking for help.

Tuoba Yuxiu frowned, staring at the spy, her voice was as cold as winter snow, she slowly spoke, "Do you believe these words?" ”

The spy hung his head so low that he couldn't hear the real voice: "I don't believe it." ”

Tuoba Yu suddenly raised his voice and said, "I can't hear what you say. ”

The spy was silent for a moment before he replied loudly: "My subordinates don't believe it!" ”

Tuoba Yu nodded, his brows expanded, and said to everyone: "The war is stalemate, our side has been unable to enter the palace to rescue the driver, the two Liu Zhao brothers must have taken advantage of the battle to release the wind for help, they have many henchmen in the city, and now they are pouring their nests to rescue, and they are demagogic with the statement that the saint was 'assassinated', they dare to use this kind of rhetoric to frame His Highness, indicating that the saint is his old man, I'm afraid..."

After speaking, he sighed heavily and shook his head, and everyone was silent, but the gaze that looked at Liu Qi also eased.

Tuoba Yu paused for a moment and continued: "However, although the enemy planted the blame, His Highness's heart to save the country and protect the world can be learned!" The sincere heart is comparable to the sun and the moon! Now the country is in danger, Your Majesty does not know the life and death, the two kings are eyeing each other, and the reinforcements will arrive in an instant, and in the capital, it can prevent the country from falling, and the people's lives are only on Your Highness, only on you! The burden is on your shoulders, whether you go or stay, but by your heart! ”

After speaking, she suddenly pulled out the sword on her body, raised it high to the sky, and said loudly: "Although I am a princess of a barbarian state, I am also a citizen of the Han vassal domain. Now, the only way to do this is to be loyal to His Highness and fight to the death for the country! I, Tuoba Yu, swear to Tianming, and swear to advance and retreat with His Highness, and live and die together! ”

Behind him, everyone raised their blades at the same time, echoing in unison, and the sound spread for ten miles.

Liu Qi glanced at Tuoba Yu with grateful eyes, pulled out the "pure evil" in his hand, and said loudly: "This king is only loyal to his father and the heart of the Han Dynasty, and nothing else, and now the two kings are rebellious and use the emperor's life and death as an excuse to intend to disintegrate the army's heart, and their hearts can be punished!" For today's plan, the only way is to fight quickly, attack the palace, and save the king! ”

The crowd echoed in unison.

After a while, Liu Qi pressed down on his hand, quieted everyone down, and ordered: "The generals listen to the order!" In order to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, Zhang Yuan was ordered to divide 1,000 troops to stop the attacking enemy, be sure to drag the enemy, and wait for the king to save him, and then rush to help! The rest of the people will continue to attack the palace gate, and the palace must be taken within half a pillar of incense! ”

When everyone heard this, they shouted, "Yes! ”――

It was late at night, and at the darkest time of the day, almost everyone on the mainland had already slept.

And Luojing City, inside and outside the palace, the quietest place in the empire, was now reddened by the firelight, and the noise tore the night apart, but no civilians dared to come out to see what was going on.

The vicious soldiers roared and even rushed towards the palace with impunity, slamming the gates with the same slamming wood that was used to attack the enemy's city.
