Chapter 262

Without any suspense, when the sound of a huge explosion reverberated over Jinling Mansion, the rebels rushed into the city gate, and the two armies split into left and right roads to attack the inner city.

When they got up early in the morning, the eunuchs and palace maids who were preparing to serve the royal family were frightened by the sudden change and ran around.

The panic only made the rebels even more excited.

The rebels themselves have a desire to destroy, and the horror of the eunuchs and palace ladies is like a catalyst that stimulates their nerves.

But the strange thing is that except for the guards of the outer city of the imperial city, so far, not a single soldier has been seen.

The vast imperial city was suffocating in its emptiness.

Like two long dragons, the rebels broke into the middle city from both sides, that is, the place where the hundred officials went to court.

He Jingzhu and Wang Jianfeng are both sensitive, and they still have this insight after more than ten years of military experience.

But the rebels have already penetrated, and at this time they ordered to retreat, and I am afraid that not many rebels will obey their orders.

The rebels have already gone crazy, from the cautiousness at the beginning, to the joy of blowing up the gates of the outer city, to the excitement of rushing into the middle city, and then catalyzed by the horror of the eunuchs and palace maids, as long as it is a human being, in this towering imperial city, it is difficult not to think crazy.

Seeing that the inner city was ahead, the rebel soldiers frantically rushed to the inner city gate, and the rebels carrying explosives led the way.

Unfortunately, the rebels ended there.

When the rebels rushed to the inner city gate, in an instant, a series of torches lit up on the inner city wall.

Immediately after that, the crisp sound of muskets rang out non-stop, row after row. Piece by piece, the rebels were killed and fell to the ground.

Seeing that there was no way forward, the rebels who followed all retreated sharply.

But Midtown is no longer as deserted as it was when the rebels stormed in before.

Fifteen hundred Imperial Guards instantly converged from both sides to the middle, lined up.

Retreating rebels. Still killed by a dense volley of guns.

It was a massacre, a premeditated massacre.

Outside the inner city gate, 5,000 rebels were massacred, and not a single one survived, even He Jingzhu and Wang Jianfeng fell in a pool of blood, without interrogation, let alone judgment.

Anyone who trespasses into the Imperial City. Lawfully kill on sight. These are the ten words on the stone tablet erected by Baili Wuji at the beginning of the passage of the Imperial City Middle City officials, and now the blood of the five thousand rebels confirms this truth.

From the rebels blowing up the outer city gate to the annihilation of the entire army, it was only half an hour. The two people who sat in Jinling Mansion and Song Qiqiu and Wuzhao did not wait for the good news, but waited for the fierce and vicious Imperial Forest Army.

When the two of them saw the Royal Forest Army coming, they knew that they could no longer do anything, and sighed deeply. Look at each other. Shake your head and tie it down.

Song Qiqiu and Wu Zhao are enough to be single, and when they saw that they were defeated, they did not run away and resist, or they already knew that it was impossible to escape from Jinling Mansion.

But these two are the governors of the Ming Kingdom, and there are only a dozen officials of this level, not to mention Xu Shiming, who is Gao Rongrong as the supervisor of the country. I don't dare to dispose of it at will.

So, the two were put in prison to be punished. However, the two of them were captured and killed on the spot.

The "Jinling Rebellion" killed 5,000 rebels and 530 rebellious ministers, and for a time, a strong smell of blood floated in the air of Jinling Mansion.

In the court, the number of people present was nearly fifty percent.

Since then, there are very few survivors of the former Shu and Southern Tang Dynasty ministers, and they can no longer make big waves.

Although Gao Rongrong and Xu Shiming put down the rebellion, Meng Yanyi, the queen of the East Palace, still did not know where to go.

It is not known to interrogate Song Qiqiu and Wuzhao, Song Qiqiu and Wuzhao are already dying, just as the so-called people are dying, and their words are also good, since they don't know, then Meng Yanyi should not have participated in the rebellion.

But Xu Shiming's intelligence network will definitely not go wrong, and Meng Yanyi has indeed had several contacts with Meng Chang in private.

But Meng Chang is the king of Beigang who is personally crowned by Baili Wuji, and in terms of title alone, he is the highest king of the opposite sex in the Ming Kingdom except for Baili Wuji.

Not only Xu Shiming and the others, but even Gao Rongrong did not dare to be ruthless to Meng Chang easily, although it was to surround the palace, but after all, it was only surrounded.

Jinghai waited for Li Jing to be confirmed not to participate in the rebellion, and Gao Rongrong ordered the withdrawal of the Imperial Forest Army besieging Houfu.

This made Li Jing finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

This emperor is trapped in an enemy country, his life and death are unknown, and there is a rebellion in Kyoto, and it is most normal for a dead monarch like himself to be given death for no reason at such a time.

Now I am lucky to be able to escape.

Meng Chang naturally knew this truth, and the next day, Meng Chang took the initiative to play, asking to meet the queen and have something important to report.

Gao Rongrong and Xu Shiming learned from Meng Chang's statement that the purpose of Meng Yanyi's secret contact with Meng Chang was just to leave the palace.

Go out of the palace to find a hundred miles of Mowgli.

Meng Chang never screwed his sister, whether it was Meng Yanyi's request to marry Baili Wuji, or this time he wanted to sneak out of the palace and travel west to find Baili Wuji.

The truth of the matter was revealed, and the rebellion came from the former Shu and the old ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but the monarchs of the former Shu and the Southern Tang Dynasty did not know about the rebellion, which can be described as a big joke in the world.

And the sisters of the Zhou family, Zhou Xian in order to protect the position of the prince of his own son, contacted his father in private letters, although it was contrary to the law, but it was reasonable, but Zhou Qiang was just unhappy for her sister, and she didn't know that her sister really met Song Qiqiu.

Xu Shiming was deeply ashamed that this intelligence network was so careless in his hands, and since then, he has had the idea of stepping down from this position.

But Gao Rongrong was happy for Meng Yanyi and the Zhou sisters, and she was happy for herself.

The ending of the matter made her not unable to face Baili Wuji, since Xu Shiming and the three reported to her, she has been worried that she will not be able to guard her home for Baili Wuji.

And at this moment, the messenger sent by Yun Yang and Xu Shouren successfully arrived at Jinling Mansion, and the news came that Baili Wuji was still alive, but he had not yet been found.

And this news undoubtedly played the most powerful supporting role for the turbulent and peaceful court of the Ming Kingdom.

These civil officials and generals who followed Baili Wuji and us decided that as long as Baili Wuji was still there, no matter how frustrated they were, they could still start over.

Since then, Jinling Mansion has been fully engaged in fighting against Liao and blocking divination.

Ordnance and firearms workshops were producing day and night, and a large number of materials were gathered in Chengdu Prefecture, and reinforcements were also sent to the Zhou State.

It's just that for conscription, Xu Shiming still can't make up his mind, because they have no power.

Without the will of a hundred miles of unscrupulous, the Ming Kingdom still did not dare to move the idea of conscription.

For the Ming courtiers, the main task was to welcome back the emperor.

However, Jinling Prefecture began to mobilize 30,000 of the more than 40,000 recruits in Gyeongju Zhou Xingfeng to march towards Chengdu Prefecture, which was under the jurisdiction of Yunyang. (To be continued......)
