Qiu Yizhi sneered: "This is the mansion of the traitor Zheng Xin." You tell you to bang on the door, you go to bang, what are you talking about? I don't accept the faint of heart here, but if you are afraid, take off the skin I have given you, and go out of the city. ”

Meng Hong was provoked by Qiu Yizhi like this, so he didn't speak anymore, looked up and saw a wooden stake lying down by the door, evacuated his muscles and bones slightly, picked up the stake and hit the door.

Meng Hong was born with divine power, even if it was the latch of the palace, he couldn't withstand such a strong impact from him, and he was cut off from it at once, and the entire door was also opened.

Zheng Xin intends to cause chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mansion in the capital must be closely guarded according to common sense. But he listened to the instigation of Tianzun Sect Master Wen Honghui, so he temporarily started to rebel, and the powerful guards in the palace were all taken by him, which was really inadequate, so the defense in the palace was very lax. He had already ordered the closure of Tongguan, and sent Zhao Maiji to intercept and kill Zheng Miao and Qiu Yizhi under Tongguan, but he didn't expect Qiu Yizhi to break through Tongguan, capture Zhao Maiji alive, and kill him in front of the palace, which caught him off guard.

Therefore, Qiu Yizhi saw that the middle door of Zheng Xin's mansion was wide open, so he led the army to break in directly. A few palace guards thought that it was a thief who was robbing, so they hurriedly took weapons and came out to stop them. But although these guards were also considered to have some martial arts, they were far from being the opponents of these battle-hardened warriors under Qiu Yizhi, and they were killed without any suspense.

Zheng Xin's palace Qiu Yizhi had also been here several times before, and the terrain was very familiar, so he led the people and horses to go straight to the depths along the path, walked to a small building, called a few subordinates, stretched out his hand, and said: "Zheng Xin's two sons live in it, you arrest them and act with me." ”

Zheng Xin has two sons, one is called Zheng Chao and the other is Zheng Qi. Zheng Chao was already a teenager, and he was dragged off the bed, but he did not lose his temper, posed as a prince and grandson, and scolded angrily: "Who are you waiting for? The kidnapping of the prince is the crime of killing the head, are you not afraid of death? ”

"Shut up!" Qiu Yizhi said loudly, "Zheng Xin even killed your imperial grandfather, what kind of crime am I?" ”

Zheng Chao saw that Qiu Yizhi was coming, so he hurriedly said, "It turned out to be an uncle." There must be some misunderstanding here......"

"Huh, misunderstanding?" Qiu Yizhi sneered, "If you want to know that there is any misunderstanding, you just come with me, and there will naturally be a time for clarification." ”

"No...... I'm not going. Although the uncle is the righteous brother of his father, he is still a courtier after all. I won't accept your messy life! Zheng Chao stubbornly twisted his neck.

Qiu Yizhi didn't have time to reason with him here, the muscles on his face twitched, and he ordered: "His Royal Highness the prince can't walk anymore, you put the knife on his neck to see if it can be slightly better?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a personal soldier pulled out a saber in his hand and put it on Zheng Chao's neck, which made him suddenly half angry, and said: "Where are you going, lead the way, I will go myself." ”

Zheng Xin's youngest son, Zheng Qi, was only eight or nine years old, had never seen the world, and was far from having the courage of his brother, and he was already frightened by such a sudden scene now, and immediately burst into tears.

His cry made Qiu Yi's heart irritated, and he took two steps forward and scolded: "You are almost ten years old." At this time, I had followed the emperor north to fight the Turks. What are you crying about? Take out some of the decency of the descendants of the Zheng family! ”

When Zheng Qi heard this, his nose shrank, but after all, he couldn't help it, and cried loudly again.

Qiu Yizhi saw that he had a handful of snot and tears, quite a bit of his father Zheng Xin's appearance, and his heart suddenly felt disgusted, and he reached out and slapped him in the face.

When was Zheng Qi beaten like this by outsiders, he was stunned for a moment, and he only covered his swollen and painful face, and forgot to cry.

So Qiu Yizhi took Zheng Xin's two sons and continued to walk to the depths of the palace.

After leaving and having another cup of tea, Zheng Chao had already figured out Qiu Yizhi's plan, and hurriedly flashed in front of Qiu Yizhi and said, "Uncle, probably you have something to do with your father." It is enough for my brother and I to be your hostages, so why bother your mother? ”

Qiu Yi was stunned and replied: "You are also smart, but there is no room for you to speak here, shut up for me!" ”

Zheng Chao was about to argue, but a cold blade appeared in his throat again, making him unable to make a sound.

However, Zheng Chao's words still reminded Qiu Yizhi - if he really wanted to go to Zheng Xin's wife, Mrs. Da Qin, Zheng Xin's face naturally did not have to scruples, but this Mrs. Da Qin was the sister of Zheng Miao's wife, Mrs. Xiao Qin, and this relationship really could not be ignored.

So Qiu Yizhi walked for a while, stopped in front of a dormitory door, and said loudly: "Mrs. Daqin, I am Qiu Yizhi, and I want to tell you a few more words." ”

He spoke several times, and after a commotion in the house, he finally answered, "It turns out that my uncle is here." When I came to visit in the middle of the night, my husband was not in the house, and he was a little undignified. Uncle has something to do, how about you talk to your husband about it? Uncle, please come back today. ”

Qiu Yizhi was sent away by her words, and said, "Madam, please listen." Zheng Xin committed the great crime of killing the king and killing the teacher in Jiangnan, and killed the third highness Zheng Miao, which is already a crime that cannot be forgiven, and I am about to crusade against Zheng Xin, a thief. Fearing that the sword would have no eyes and hurt the innocent, he specially sent someone to protect it, and I brought even the two princes with me. ”

There was silence in the room for a while, and it took a long time to respond: "Little uncle, isn't he mistaken?" My husband has always been loyal, filial and righteous, how could he do such an unethical thing? Something must be wrong......"

Qiu Yizhi still had important things to do, so he had no time to argue with Mrs. Daqin, so he turned around and called the two brothers, Zheng Chao and Zheng Qi, pushed them into the door, and said, "Your mother is a female streamer, and now is the time for your brothers to fulfill their filial piety." Why don't you go in and comfort yourself? ”

When he saw that the two of them had obediently entered the door, he sent someone to call the "Iron Head Jiao" to him and asked, "How is it?" Tell you to guard the gates of the king's house, how have you done this errand? ”

"Tietou Jiao" hurriedly replied: "The adults do things quickly and carefully, and they don't alarm many people. Just a few cowards who tried to run away when they heard the wind were all caught by me. May I ask you, what should we do with these people? ”

Qiu Yizhi replied: "What do you ask me to do for such a trivial matter?" It's okay to watch the pleasing ones shut up, and it's okay to kill one or two to make an example of the monkeys if they don't like the eyes. Wait for fifty more brethren, light torches, and search the palace, and all the people in the palace will be driven out of the house, and they will be gathered together in one place, and they will be under their watch. I still have things to do, and you have to do this quickly. ”

This is equivalent to copying Zheng Xin's palace.

Since it is a "copy inspection", and it has to be done "faster", then naturally there will be no etiquette and decency - the "Iron Head Jiao" led people to toss up and down in the palace for more than an hour, and only then did the men and women, old and young all gather together.

So Qiu Yizhi gathered this group of people in two houses, divided men and women, and ordered ten reliable people to take care of them, and then led the rest of the people to leave Zheng Xin's palace again.

As soon as he left the gate of the palace, Qiu Yizhi did not delay at all, and led the army to the left and went straight to the imperial city.

The imperial city's customs defense is naturally stricter than that of the royal palace, and this time it can't be forcibly entered. But Qiu Yizhi had no other way to go, so he could only use the scabbard of the Western Regions Treasure Knife in his hand to slap the gate of the Forbidden City.

After a few knocks, a rough voice immediately came from inside the door: "Death?" Where did the drunkard come from, who ran to the roots of the imperial city in the middle of the night to spread wilderness, and was not afraid of death? ”

Qiu Yizhi heard someone reply, and immediately shouted: "Who is inside?" Hurry up and come out to reply, I am Qiu Yizhi, and I have to enter the palace immediately if I have something urgent. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the city gate slowly opened, and a person walked out of the door, arched his hand towards Qiu Yizhi, and said: "It turns out that the Righteous Palace has come down, in the middle of the night, what must I do to enter the palace?" Can't wait until daylight to come? ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Zhu Xilie, I didn't expect you to be here on an errand." Qiu Yizhi said, "Can it be delayed until tomorrow morning, is it still something urgent?" Hurry up and open the door and let me in. ”

Although this Zhonglang general named Zhu Xilie was an old guard of Youyan Palace, he recognized His Royal Highness Qiu Yizhi, but he kept saying: "This is a little difficult. The Forbidden City is a forbidden place, and no matter how urgent it is, if there is no emperor's holy decree, even several princes will not be able to enter or leave. What's more, it's already midnight......"

Qiu Yizhi's eyebrows widened, glanced at Zhu Xilie, and asked: "Now that the emperor is on a personal expedition in Jiangnan, according to what you say, isn't it that no one will be able to enter the imperial city?" Then let me ask you, can you go in with the decree of the prince of the prison country? ”

Zhonglang General Zhu Xilie hurriedly nodded and said, "It should be okay, right?" ”

"What do you mean by 'should'?" Qiu Yizhi asked, "What do you mean by 'okay'?" ”

Zhu Xilie hurriedly replied: "Before the emperor went south, there was a decree, saying that it was an edict of the prison state, and if it does not contradict the holy decree, the effect will be equivalent to the holy decree. But when His Royal Highness was in charge of the country, he never issued an edict to let people enter the palace......"

"It's down now, don't be in a hurry." Qiu Yi said while asking someone to fetch pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote an edict on the street, stamped it with the seal of the prison country, and handed it to the Zhonglang general.

Zhu Xilie was dumbfounded, but what he was holding in his hand was indeed stamped with the seal of the prison country, and it was a real edict of the prison country, and he really couldn't find the slightest reason to block Qiu Yizhi outside the Forbidden City.

So Qiu Yizhi smiled proudly, waved forward, and said, "Go, follow me into the palace." ”

Zhu Xilie hurriedly interrupted: "Your Highness Yi, on this edict, it is only written that you will enter the palace alone, but it doesn't say that you will bring troops in......"

"What's so hard about that?" Qiu Yizhi snatched the edict from his hand that the ink had not yet dried, added a few words to it, and sent it to the middle general, saying, "That's it, right?" ”

Zhonglang took Zhu Xilie and took a look, and saw that between the words, the words "sergeant of the department" were added after the three words "Qiu Yizhi", and he could immediately lead his soldiers into the palace. This Zhonglang General suddenly felt that he seemed to be being teased, and seemed to cooperate to do a very ridiculous thing, but he couldn't stop it or expose it, so he had to let Qiu Yizhi lead his group of disheveled soldiers to break into the imperial city at the core of the world.

In addition to a few large palaces in the imperial city, I only know the "Shuli Palace" where the emperor works daily and the "Lizheng Palace" where the queen lives.

However, this was enough, Qiu Yizhi glanced around the palace, and after identifying the passage, he went to the "Lizheng Palace" where the queen was.
