"The prince has entered the White Deer Gate."

Next to Ji Rulong, the king of Han, there is a middle-aged man in gray clothes, his appearance and figure are plain and unremarkable, and he belongs to the public face that he forgets at a glance.

But Cai Xiaomin, who was on the other side of the Han King, knew that this person was by no means simple, this man's aura was restrained, and he couldn't feel anything even if he probed the past with his mental power, but Cai Xiaomin's intuition made her feel that there was a hidden danger in this person.

And judging from King Han's attitude towards him, this person's status is definitely not low, and he should be an important staff member of the prince's side.

Another thing that Cai Xiaomin has to pay attention to is that this person's eyes are always closed, and he seems to be blind.

I don't know how he knew the news that the prince had entered the city, so he told King Han with certainty.

King Han sneered when he heard this result, but he was not surprised, he spoke: "This younger brother of mine is even smarter than I imagined, presumably the ministers of the court, and even Dazai have underestimated him. Don't say it, he's also an emperor. ”

The blind man replied without a hint of expression: "It is true that he is a young man with a lot of city, but since you are here, he is not worthy of sitting in that chair." ”

"That's right." Ji Rulong smiled conceitedly, and then a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes and said, "Does this kid really think he has a chance to turn the tables?" ”

The blind man spoke, "Judging by the way this prince behaves, anyone would think that he has no idea what we have planned with Dazai. But he had secretly sent people to the other princes and kings of the Nine Roads to ask for help last night, saying that Dazai was plotting a rebellion, and asked the princes and kings to send troops to protect the king. ”

"Is he going to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?" King Han smiled a little: "The key is that the other princes and kings must be able to buy his account." ”

The blind man exhaled lightly, shook his head, and said, "I think he has his own plan, but I really don't understand what his hole cards are, and he dares to enter the city even though he knows that we are joining forces with Dazai." ”

"Maybe he'd really rather die than let go and give me the throne." Ji Rulong rubbed his temples and said, "Or maybe he didn't take me seriously?" I only think that Dazai is a threat to him, and if he can convince Dazai, everything will be fine? As for the hole cards, I don't know what hole cards he can have. ”

"Be careful." The blind man spoke.

"Well, but Dazai has already imprisoned the Great Situ, the Great Sikou and others who are not subject to me. Send another message and ask the troops of King Ning and Yewang to rush over with the slogan of King Qin's escort. Ji Rulong said indifferently: "Give him a surprise then." ”

The blind man asked, "Now into the city?" Do you want to inquire again? ”

Ji Rulong looked up at the national capital that was already close in front of him, but suddenly turned his head to look at Cai Xiaomin and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Cai Xiaomin had just digested the information in the conversation between the two and understood that the prince should be prepared, not ignorant of Dazai's plan and King Han's plans as he imagined. And Cai Xiaomin understands that even if this time it is a game with an unequal number of players participating in the battle, the system will not create too much unfairness in the forces of both sides of the plot, at least it will give players the opportunity and ability to affect the progress of the plot. In this way, it can be guessed that the prince who is the weakest on the surface must have left hole cards.

didn't wait for Cai Xiaomin to think more, but Ji Rulong suddenly threw the question of whether to enter the city now.

Cai Xiaomin thought for a moment, frowned slightly and replied: "If you want to come to the prince's side, you must be prepared, and there are more than we imagined, even... Dazai's side can't be fully trusted either. ”

Ji Rulong raised her eyebrows slightly: "So we don't enter the city?" ”

"But if we don't go into the city, it's full of uncertainties, and it's not good for us to look from the wall. We can't wait for Dazai to take full control of the crown prince and everything is settled before entering the city. If Dazai really wants to support you in the ascendant, you will undoubtedly chill his heart by doing this. And with the prince's hole cards, if we really fight Dazai, we will have one of the most powerful helpers. Even pushed Dazai to the side of the crown prince. ”

"It's risky to get into the city." Cai Xiaomin continued very seriously: "But I think this is your closest opportunity to the throne, and this risk is worth taking. ”

Ji Rulong smiled when she heard this, and then looked at the gate of the imperial city, and a trace of determination and fanaticism flashed in her eyes in an instant.

He knew that the crown prince was far from being as simple as it seemed, and he did not despise the prince, whether it was the meaning of these two words, or the young man who carried these two words.

He also knew that the authenticity of that edict would be questioned by the courtiers, and even if Dazai guaranteed it, it would not be able to convince the world that the emperor would really pass on the throne to him.

Even, even though Dazai has done so much for him, even if he has secretly probed in many ways and has not found evidence that Dazai will be unfavorable to him, he is still wary of Dazai's position.

But he didn't just want that dragon chair today.

He's been preparing for today for too long.

From the moment his grandfather passed the throne to the third prince back then, he vowed to take that position back at a young age.

That's what should be his!

With victory today, he will truly become the master of this city, and he will be the master of this vast kingdom.

He looked through the city gate, saw the golden palace, saw the white jade steps in front of the palace, and saw the dazzling dragon chair on the Chaoming Palace.

I saw myself wearing a dragon robe and sitting on it.

Ji Rulong shouted: "Follow me into the city and succeed to the throne!" ”

......

Two quarters of an hour passed, and there were more and more corpses in front of the East Palace, and some of the neat bluestones that were originally laid in front of the palace were already covered with cracks, and the cracks were filled with blood.

The Praetorian Guards guarding the palace, and the Jin Wuwei guarding the royal bloodline, two groups of people who were supposed to complement each other, fought to the death here.

Of the original more than 2,000 Praetorian Guards, 400 had already died, and more than 500 were so seriously injured that it was difficult to lift their blades again, and even the captain who led the troops was killed and wounded.

Of the fifty Jin Wuwei who stayed behind, only five people were left standing.

They relied on each other so that they would not fall, and in the face of the Praetorian Guards, who were several times their own and could not be killed, there was still no cowardice in the eyes of these five people, not even a trace of sadness, just resentment and indifference.

Liao Jinzhuo only stepped out of the carriage at this time, and many people didn't know that this court lieutenant who was in danger of the palace was not as tall and burly as he imagined, but a little short.

He walked through the crowd and walked to the front of the East Palace, looked at the five Jin Wuwei who were covered in broken armor and covered in blood, and sneered: "It's not accurate to say that you are stupid and loyal, because you can't understand the word at all." How can an ignorant puppet, a few stinking and hard stones, stand up to the pace of the changing times? Oh, what do you think you can protect? ”

The five Jin Wuwei looked at the short man coldly, and the tallest man looked down at Liao Jinzhuo, snorted a mouthful of bloody spit, and then said coldly: "What we are guarding is our dignity as guards. ”

Liao Jinzhuo didn't expect that these royal dead soldiers could still say such pun words, and then he laughed, the corners of his mouth were high, but his eyes were full of coldness, he restrained his smile and said, "With your ridiculous dignity, go and serve the emperor." ”

His voice was soft, but it was a commanding tone, with an unmistakable force.

The next moment, the five Jin Wuwei who stood stubbornly seemed to have been blown by a hurricane, and they could no longer stand firmly, and they all took a few steps backwards, and then spat blood and fell to the ground.

The armor and bluestone collided, making a few crunching sounds.

These crisp sounds announced that the East Palace had been lost.

"It's been so long for these brainless guys to stop them." Liao Jinzhuo raised his hand and dusted off his clothes, and then said: "King Han is about to enter the city, you go and find out the jade seal of the heirloom country for me and give it to our future majesty." ”

"Yes!"

The rest of the people began to rush into the East Palace, but when they walked to the corpses of those Jin Wuwei, they couldn't help but slow down, I was afraid that these crazy guys would get up from the pool of blood and wave the halberd in their hands and slash at themselves with expressionless faces.

"Hmph." Liao Jinzhuo snorted lightly, and then he looked at the gray-haired old man beside him and said, "If it weren't for the Nine Deer Sky Patrol Array suppressing my realm, I would be able to kill all these Jin Wuwei alone." ”

The old man bowed his head slightly and did not answer.

Liao Jinzhuo then smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "It's all dead, what's wrong with me talking big?" ”

"Lord Tingwei, I'm afraid we still have business to do." A voice came.

Liao Jinzhuo turned his head to look and said, "Your Excellency Young Envoy, we have killed so many brothers desperately, but we can be regarded as breaking through the East Palace, I don't know what other arrangements you have?" ”

Fang Zhengxiao ignored the dissatisfaction in Liao Jinzhuo's tone, but said solemnly: "The princess hasn't been caught yet." ”

Liao Jinzhuo laughed when he heard this: "Heh, you high-level palm seal orders, leave the hard bone of Jin Wuwei for us to gnaw, but you didn't catch the princess?" ”

Fang Zhengxiao frowned slightly and said, "It's not a princess in that carriage at all." ”

Liao Jinzhuo's face also changed slightly when he heard this, and he no longer sneered, but raised his head and asked, "Could it be that the princess has escaped?" ”

Fang Zhengxiao shook his head and said, "I think she is still in the palace." ”

"Then get her out." After Liao Jinzhuo said this, he shook his hand fiercely and said, "I'll transfer another team of people to search the palace." After speaking, he looked up at Fang Zhengxiao, and said calmly and resolutely: "But you have to remember that I am helping you, if you can't catch the princess, it is your negligence!" ”

Fang Zhengxiao didn't say anything, and turned around and left with two of his subordinates.

After walking a little farther, the palm print beside Fang Zhengxiao said angrily: "My lord, this old dog is too deceitful. ”

"Ignore it, what happens to an unfaithful watchdog?" Fang Zhengxiao said flatly.

Then the subordinate asked, "Where shall we find the princess?" ”

Fang Zhengxiao responded: "We have already checked outside Tai'an Gate, and there is no whereabouts of the princess, so she is naturally in the inner court." You two, go and search where the concubines live, and if you don't find it, go to the Queen Mother to have a look, and don't notice that the Queen Mother will be frightened. ”

"Yes." The two answered, and then one of them asked, "What about you?" ”

Fang Zhengxiao looked up and said, "I'll go to the Imperial Garden to have a look." ”

The subordinates were puzzled: "Isn't there Li Zhiwan in the Imperial Garden, and that adult is there?" ”

"But the princess should understand that she can't escape, she can't hide, that... She's only going to that one place. ”
