Yongwang Zhu Ciwei and the fifth prince Zhu Cihuan hid in Zhu Yujiao's arms and trembled, they were already going to crown the fifth prince Zhu Cihuan as the spirit king this year, but the army approached the Beijing Division, which had already delayed this matter. The guards of the East Palace kept urging, which made Zhu Yujiao suddenly disgusted.

"What is not perfect, this palace has decided to take the two royal brothers to Shandong together, and now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may have left the city, you don't need to explain anything to him!" Zhu Yujiao shouted.

But several East Palace guards were unrelenting, and seeing that only Zhu Yujiao, Xing Yuan, Princess Zhaoren and Cao Wuxian came into the palace, they actually had the idea of threatening with the weapons in their hands. One of the sturdy guards actually used his hands to force Zhu Cizhi and Zhu Cihuan.

Zhu Yujiao and Xing Yuanhe had been so frightened that they were so frightened that they screamed for a while.

Cao Wuxian frowned, and after getting up, he whispered, "Close your eyes!" Zhu Yuanjiao, Xing Yuan, plus Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Cihuan and the young Princess Zhaoren Zhu Yuanyuan trusted her, and they all closed their eyes in an instant.

Only the sound of the wind passing through their ears from time to time was heard, and through the screams one after another, several people did not dare to open their eyes, and their faces were pale and clenched each other's palms.

After a few moments, there was no more sound in the dormitory. Cao Wuxian stretched out his hand to pick up the crying Zhu Yuanyuan, and told Zhu Yuanjiao and others to pull the corners of his clothes, and then slowly walked out of the dormitory.

Shen Ke rushed here panting, and met Cao Wuxian and his party coming out of the dormitory, Cao Wuxian only brought more than ten relatives with him, and there were only seven or eight people around Shen Ke, Shen Ke saw Cao Wuxian, so he shouted loudly: "Master Cao, get out of the palace quickly, the handsome has already left the city, and tell me to catch up immediately, I can't catch up, so I will make peace in Tianjin." ”

Zhu Ping'an had already reserved the next batch of mounts, but they were all near Chengtianmen, and Cao Wuxian and his party had to rush there on foot.

Along the way, the former Inner Palace guards and Jinyi Wei Dahan generals have long been gone, on the contrary, there are eunuchs everywhere who are fully armed and holding all kinds of blades, saying that they are on the orders of Wang Chengen to guard the Inner Palace.

Seeing the outline of the Qianqing Palace from a distance, Zhu Yujiao was sad, pulling her younger brothers and sisters to kowtow in the direction of the Qianqing Palace, "Father, mother, son and minister say goodbye!" ”

The Jingshi outside the palace walls was full of gunsmoke, and the faint sound of fighting could almost be heard in his ears, which made Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Cihuan and others even more afraid, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

Cao Wuxian couldn't help but remind: "Your Highness, let's set off immediately, if it's a little later, I'm afraid the bandits will come to the inner city, and it will be ...... then!" ”

Zhu Yujiao nodded silently, the sudden changes in one day had already exhausted her, but at this time, she secretly told herself that she still had to take care of her younger siblings, and she couldn't fall down no matter what.

……

Iron hooves rolling, stepping through the long street, now the streets of Jingshi are already full of devastation, the early Dashun army has begun to plunder everywhere, the wealthy and powerful have naturally become the main target. After entering Beijing, Jiading Bo Zhou Kui sent someone to get in touch with Zhu Ping'an, saying that he would meet outside the palace gate, but he has not seen his shadow until now.

When starting from Chengtianmen, Zhu Ping'an sent someone to investigate, and on the way, he had already been rewarded, Jiading Bofu was washed in blood, and Zhou Kui and his relatives had died under the butcher's knife before they had time to go out. Zhu Ping'an was greatly surprised, Zhou Kui's mansion is located in the inner city, logically speaking, the assassins of the Dashun Army have not yet invaded the inner city, if it is said that there are other bandits, then there are more than 200 Ding generals in the Jiading Bo Mansion, how can ordinary bandits do it so quickly and thoroughly?

Although Zhou Kui is rich and stingy, he gets along very well with Zhu Ping'an, and it is precisely because of his existence that he has blocked a lot of open guns and hidden arrows for Zhu Ping'an. Now hearing the news of his death, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but sigh in addition to the accident.

At the same time that his subordinates came to report Zhou Kui's death, Zhu Ping'an keenly caught a trace of strangeness in Zhu Cihong's eyes, which contained a strange expression of schadenfreude and excitement after success, although it was only fleeting, but it was seen by Zhu Ping'an.

Thinking of Zhu Cihong's expression when he urged him to set off just now, Zhu Ping'an's heart couldn't help but have strong doubts. Could it be that Zhu Cihong took the lead and killed his grandfather. If you want to say that these two grandchildren are really a strange pair. In the real history, Zhou Kui drove the Zhu Cihong brothers out of the door when the city was broken, refused to include it, and directly led to the death of the Zhu Cihong brothers in the end.

But now, it was Zhu Cihong who took the lead and killed his grandfather's family. Thinking about it, it is no wonder that Zhu Cihong, Zhou Kui's family is rich, but he turned a blind eye to Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou's requests for help, and always refused to lend a hand, taking the lead in offering wealth to save the people from fire and water. Perhaps, this is what Chongzhen is fueling behind the scenes.

Just when he was about to arrive at Guangqu Gate, he found that the banner of Dashun Lu Guogong He Renlong had been erected on the city tower and arrow tower of Guangqu Gate, which made Zhu Ping'an's heart suddenly chuckle, it seems that He Renlong's department has begun to enter the city and has occupied Guangqu Gate.

Before he could think about it carefully, the soldiers and horses in front had stopped advancing, and the soldiers hurriedly came to report, and there were men and horses blocking the way in front of them.

Zhu Cihong and the other subordinates of the East Palace suddenly panicked, and Zhu Cihong forced himself to suppress the horror in his heart, "Chief Zhu Bing, how is this good?" ”

"Your Highness, don't be good, the thief army has entered the city by different roads, and at this time it is also the moment of chaos in the establishment, let's go straight to the past, as long as we get out of the city, we can have no worries!"

After speaking, Zhu Ping'an instructed Wang Jinfa to protect Zhu Cihong and his party with the Chinese army and personal guards, and he urged the horses to go to the pioneer camp to investigate the situation.

When he arrived at the front, he found that Cao Bianjiao had rushed to the front of the formation. But he was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked Zhang Dingbian, the deputy general of the cavalry, "Big dog, what's going on?" How did General Cao rush over alone! ”

Zhang Dingbian arched his hand at Zhu Ping'an, "Back to the marshal, General Cao seems to have an old acquaintance with the soldiers and horses who blocked our way, so he stepped forward to say hello to see if he could get them out of the way!" I specially instructed us not to come forward at will, so as not to cause conflicts! ”

"Who's in the way?"

"Look at the banners, it should be Tang Tong, the former Miyun commander, and Jiang Jiu, the Datong commander!"

"Oh?" Zhu Ping'an nodded, and at the same time, he clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse galloped forward. Zhang Dingbing couldn't stop it, but the guards next to him reacted quickly and caught up one after another.

In the middle of the wide street, Tang Tong and Jiang Xuan, who were talking to Cao Bianjiao, were taken aback, and the guards around them stepped forward one after another, and the two of them were firmly surrounded in the center.

Cao Bianjiao looked back and saluted with his crossed hands, "Handsome!" ”

Tang Tong and Jiang Liang were stunned for a moment, and then they saw the appearance of the person who came.

Zhu Ping'an reined in the horse and smiled at Tang Tong and Jiang Hao: "You two, long time no see!" ”

Seeing that it was Zhu Ping'an who called in person, Tang Tong involuntarily shrank his body back. In Hebei that year, Wang Pu was shot in the head by Zhu Ping'an, but he still remembers it vividly, and now when they meet again, he has become the general of the Dashun Army, and at the same time, he can't help but feel a little ashamed.

Cao Bianjiao's face was not very good-looking, and he called the names of the two directly, "Tang Tong, Jiang Huang, when my uncle raised troops to level the thieves, you were all generals under his command, and we are also brothers who were born and died." Today I borrow a way out of the city from you, how can such a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, if you want to borrow, you can borrow, if you don't borrow, we will set up our troops and horses, and fight to the death! ”

Jiang Xuan's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't say why, there was no way, Tang Tong had to step forward and salute Zhu Ping'an and Cao Bianjiao, "General Zhu, General Cao, our friendship and General Cao's kindness to the two of us in the past, we all keep it in mind, if you want to say anything about fighting to the death, it is impossible to talk about it." If we had left our brothers alone, we would have moved out of the way and let the two of us come and go. It's just that the two of you don't know, now that the marshal Lu Guogong He is behind us, we are also forced to block the road, so let's just respond to one or two, so that the two of us can also make a difference......! ”

Before he finished speaking, Cao Bianjiao shouted, "He Dashuai? Which He Dashuai? ”

Tang Tong was startled, and replied instinctively: "He Renlong, Lu Guogong!" ”

"Whew!" Cao Bianjiao's mouth full of spittle Xingzi sprayed the two of them in the face, but the two of them didn't dare to attack, Zhu Ping'an didn't speak, and looked at the three of them arguing with a smile.

"What kind of thing is He Renlong, I think back then, when he suppressed bandits in Shanxi, he was only a general under my account! Now that he has committed treason to the enemy, betrayed his lord for glory, and changed to a Lu Guogong, he actually dared to block Lao Tzu's way! If you sue him immediately, you will say that it is what I Cao Bianjiao said, and whoever dares to block my way, I Cao Bianjiao will kill him! ”

Tang Tong and Jiang Jiu's faces suddenly turned red and white.

Just as they were talking, Zhu Ping'an peeked into the distance, not far from the Guangqu Gate, where the flags were waving, the swords and guns were dazzling, and a big pole was fluttering in the wind, and the impenetrable Chinese army guards were faintly visible.

Zhu Ping'an smiled at Tang Tong and the two, "Anyway, we are all old acquaintances, we have lived and died together, but it is a little inappropriate for the sword and soldiers to meet each other, and this official and He Dashuai also have a friendship, so I ask the two of you to go back and discuss with He Dashuai, as long as you get out of the way, if He Dashuai has a place to use me Zhu in the future, or wants to do some business in Shandong, I Zhu Ping'an will definitely die!" ”

Zhu Ping'an's words made Tang Tong and Jiang Jiu finally breathe a sigh of relief, although there are many people on their side, but everyone knows that Zhu Ping'an and Cao Bianjiao are both ancestors of murder, and the soldiers are elite, now is the time to enter the city as soon as possible to reap benefits, who is willing to fight to the death with them.

Besides, Zhu Ping'an's Shandong is so rich that he left a favor, at least there is a way out when they meet in the future.

The two readily agreed, and then they took a group of guards to turn their horses and return to their own formation.

Cao Bianjiao wanted to scold a few more words, but was stopped by Zhu Ping'an. The two walked side by side towards their own subordinates, and halfway through, Zhu Ping'an looked back at the positions of Tang Tong and Jiang Xuan, and then said in a low voice: "Brother Cao, order our troops, all of them to attack, and storm He Renlong's Chinese army!" ”R1152
