Chapter 367: Bombardment of the Imperial Palace

The heavy rain had overshadowed the previous actions of the Secret Service Division, and now also covered up the atrocities of the Eastern Janissaries.

Yang Guang stayed at Empress Xiao's place tonight, although Empress Xiao was nearly forty years old at this time, but the pig-killing knife of the years did not leave any traces on her delicate face. On the contrary, Emperor Xiao at this time has gone through years of precipitation, but Yu has a kind of grace and luxury, calm atmosphere. Perennial pampering, she has to read classics at leisure, she is more knowledgeable and courteous, and has an impeccable motherly temperament. Emperor Xiao is not only a beautiful woman, but also a talented woman, with a poetic and scholarly temperament, and Queen Xiao's whole person at this time exudes a mature and graceful temperament.

Although Yang Guang is not as afraid of guilt as his father, he only dare not sleep with other concubines when he is the emperor. But Yang Guang and Empress Xiao have gone all the way, but they are really singing and respecting each other. Yang Guang has three sons and two daughters, two of whom were born to Empress Xiao. Over the years, Yang Guang has basically spent most of his time in the queen's palace.

Wearing a fur coat, Yang Guang returned to the house with a long sigh.

"Your Majesty, what happened, so sighing?" Empress Xiao helped Yang Guang gather his clothes and asked.

After hesitating, Yang Guang still said, "Just now Sima Dekan came to report that some traitors took advantage of the rainy night to make trouble in Kyoto, set fires everywhere, and opened prisons all over Kyoto to release prisoners to make trouble. Not only that, but they also attacked the palaces of the ministers. The whole mansion of Tang Guogong Li Yuan was baptized in blood, and the mansion of Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu was also baptized in blood. Li Yuan's family of more than 200 people, including three concubines and four sons, did not escape. Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu also encountered an accident, and in the entire Xu Guo Mansion, only Yu Wenhua and He Yu Wenshi and two brothers escaped. Fortunately, the queen picked up Nanyang's mother and son to accompany Izumo today. ”

Empress Xiao's eyes were full of shock when she heard this, although Princess Nanyang was not born to her. But this daughter has always been sensible and knows etiquette best, and at the age of fourteen, she married Yuwenshi, the son of Yuwenshu, the son of Yuwenshu, the son of the then Son of Heaven, in order to win over the Yuwen family. Now the princess has only been in her teens for ten years, but she has been in Yuwen's house for six years, and she has a six-year-old son. After marrying into Yuwen's family, the princess has never put the princess on the shelf, and Yuwenshu was seriously ill years ago, and Princess Nanyang personally adjusted the diet as a daughter, and served it by herself. When I thought that such a good daughter was only twenty years old, but her husband's family was really destroyed, I couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, it is better to tell her about the princess. Now that the attached horse and Yu culture are outside, they can't rush back for a while. The aftermath of the Yuwen family can only be handled by Nanyang, tell her earlier, and prepare early. ”

Yang Guang thought about it, the princess is so filial, and now that Yuwenshu is dead, the princess must be filial as a daughter-in-law. When the Yuwen brothers didn't come back, they could only be taken care of by him. Thinking about it, I was still a little secretly frightened in my heart, but fortunately, I took their mother and son into the palace today to accompany Princess Izumo. If not, his beloved daughter and nephew will be poisoned by the rebels.

"Come on, immediately pass on Princess Nanyang to come over. In addition, I will pass on my will to Sima Dekan, and ask him to track down the rebel party for me immediately, and before dawn, I must know that the rebel party has been brought to justice."

In the heavy rain, Qin Qiong and a dozen others walked cautiously in the Ziwei Palace. Fortunately, this heavy rain, although the number of guards on duty in the palace has increased due to the rebellion of the rebel party, but this heavy rain makes people unable to see five steps away. And the sound of the rain drowned out all the sounds.

According to the map, it took Shu Bao and the others a lot of effort to touch Yang Ji'er's palace. On a rainy night, Princess Izumo's bedroom was still lit up. A few people went straight to the door and knocked out the two little eunuchs by the door.

Among the people, no one had ever seen Princess Izumo, and when they broke into here at this time, Qin Shubao and Cheng Yanjin glanced at each other, and they didn't know what to do. After all, this Izumo princess is also a handsome woman, so she can't be rude.

Cheng Yanjin smiled, turned his head and whispered to Yu Chigong, "Lao Hei, we are in this wind, you go in and bring the princess out." ”

Wei Chigong was stunned for a moment, "What if she refuses to leave?" ”

"You don't care so much about what you do, you just take a quilt and roll it up, and carry people out. Anyway, you're so dark, she doesn't necessarily remember you for a while. "Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong are worried about this, but at this time, there is only the honest man Chi Gong, the pit captain. ,

Wei Chigong looked at Shu Bao and the others, and found that everyone twisted their heads to the side, making it clear that they were not willing to replace him, patted their thighs, gritted their teeth and rushed in. As soon as he entered the dormitory, Yu Chigong saw a beautiful woman in palace clothes looking at him in surprise.

"Princess, my old black was sent by the marshal to pick you up to Liaodong. You don't have to worry, we'll be able to take you out of the palace in a moment. I'm rude," after saying this, Wei Chigong didn't wait for the princess to reply, he had already pulled up a quilt from the bed on the side, directly wrapped the princess in its entirety, and ran out of the dormitory directly on his shoulders.

Shu Ding, Biting Jin and the others stood outside nervously, and saw Lao Hei carrying someone out, and a black hair was exposed outside the quilt, and the sound of whining in the quilt could be faintly heard. However, everyone didn't have time to talk about etiquette at this time, and Shubao shouted, "If you receive it, withdraw immediately."

In the dark and rainy night, a dozen or so people quickly returned the same way.

In the Izumo Palace, Yang Ji'er walked back with his six-year-old nephew Yuwen Zen Master, and said with a smile, "Zen Master is so cute, Xiao Xie still doesn't let me see it"

"Aunt Princess, where is my mother?" Six-year-old Zen Master Yuwen shook Yang Ji'er's hand and said.

Yang Ji'er took a look, only to find that the bedroom was empty, and her sister Princess Nanyang, who was originally here, was gone.

"Imperial Sister, Imperial Sister" called softly a few times, but she still didn't see her figure. Yang Ji'er led the little nephew to the hall on the other side, and as soon as she stepped through the door, she suddenly found that the two little eunuchs on duty at the door were all knocked unconscious on the ground.

There was a sound of footsteps, and several guards in robes walked in with one of the attendants.

"Your Majesty has a decree, and it is rumored that Princess Nanyang will see her immediately"

Yang Ji'er said helplessly, "The imperial sister is gone, she was still there just now." I went out with my nephew, and when I came back, I was gone, only to see two stunned waiters on duty. ”

The attendant and the guard who delivered the decree looked at each other, and one of the guards changed his face and said, "There is chaos in Kyoto tonight, and there is a rebel party doing chaos. Tang Guogong Li's mansion was washed by the blood of the internal party, and hundreds of members of the family were unexpected. The mansion of Lord Yuwen of Xu Guogong was also bloodied by the rebels, and the whole mansion was killed by the rebels. Isn't that the chaotic party already breaking into the palace? ”

Several guards looked at each other and felt that it was very likely that the rebel party could cause chaos in Kyoto, and it was very likely that they would come to the palace. Thinking of this, several people's faces changed greatly, "Quickly send a warning message, a traitor assassin has entered the palace and has robbed Princess Nanyang." ”

There was a great chaos in the palace for a while, and the commander of the palace guards on duty hurriedly sent someone to ring the alarm bell on the bell and drum tower in the palace.

The rush of "dang, dang, dang" kept ringing. The bell and drum tower in the palace is 30 zhang high, which is quite a tall building in the entire palace. Although the rain outside was loud, when the huge bronze bell was ringed, the entire Ziwei Palace heard the alarm bell.

If it is not a matter of great urgency, the palace is absolutely not allowed to ring this alarm bell in the middle of the night. When the alarm bell sounds, the entire palace will be plunged into chaos and worry.

"There are assassins"

"The Assassins Kidnap the Princess"

"Arresting the Party"

A shout sounded, and the guards on duty in the palace rushed out and began to search for people everywhere in the palace.

"What?" Yang Guang was still thinking about how to tell his beloved daughter about the tragedy of the Yuwen family for a while, but now when he heard the alarm, the guards actually came to report that the rebel party had infiltrated the palace and taken Princess Nanyang away, and he couldn't help but be shocked and angry.

"Chase me immediately, I don't care what you think, save Nanyang back for me immediately, otherwise, all the guards on duty today will be in danger" Yang Guang thundered and roared loudly.

Qin Shubao and the others escorted Wei Chi Gong, who was carrying Princess Nanyang, and hurriedly retreated, but suddenly heard the alarm bell in the palace, followed by continuous shouts everywhere. couldn't help frowning, no one expected to be discovered so soon.

More than a dozen people hurried up, hoping to arrive at the pick-up location as soon as possible.

Turning another corridor, suddenly there was a loud footstep ahead, and a janissary blocked it.

Due to the limited visual distance in the heavy rain, the two groups did not notice each other until they were only a few dozen paces apart.

The Praetorian Guards were stunned for a moment, and the next moment they had already seen the person wrapped in a quilt on Wei Chigong's shoulder, his face was happy, and he shouted, "The traitor is here, the princess is here."

Seeing that his whereabouts had been revealed, Luo Shixin took out a round ball from the oilcloth in his arms, and before the guards on the opposite side could see what was going on. Luo Shixin had already thrown the ball over and shouted, "Eat your Grandpa Luo's palm thunder"

It was too late, but it was too fast, and the ball had just flown into the Praetorian Guards, but it had already made a loud bang. A flame burst into the sky, and several Praetorian Guards were blown up and tumbled to the ground.

"His grandmother's, anyway, it has been exposed, why don't we make a big fuss about Emperor Yang Guanggou's palace tonight, let him see with his own eyes the power of our Liaodong Thunder" After Luo Shixin threw out one, he took out another one. When they entered the palace this time, they had already thought about the hardships and dangers, and they were also prepared, if there was really no way to escape, then they should also let Yang Guang know how powerful they were.

Luo Shixin and Cheng Yanjin took the lead in opening the way, Yu Chigong and Yu Chiren walked in the middle with the princess, Qin Qiong and several others escorted them on both sides of the back, and broke through all the way. One after another hand grenades sounded in Ziwei Palace, blood splashed, severed limbs flew sideways, and the most elite palace guards of the Great Sui saw the legendary Liaodong Thunder for the first time
