Chapter 642: Ambush

He Jin was wearing light armor and was a little bloated, but he couldn't see anything unusual if he didn't look carefully. After putting on an armor inside, I don't know why, He Jin also felt a little more secure in his heart.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but now He Jin feels that what Yuan Shao said also has some truth. Thinking that the Ten Standing Servants had assassinated Yuan Shao before, and four of the Ten Standing Servants were killed by assassins, He Jin felt that he should be careful, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to die like this.

Walking back into the hall, He Jin nodded at Yuan Shao and said, "Originally, let's set off." ”

Yuan Shao nodded and walked out first. Now that he is going out, he is carrying the elite of the Xiyuan Army under his command, as well as Wen Chou and Yan Liang, and it is the assassination that is prevented.

Now that He Jin is traveling, he happens to bring the elite escort he brought to ensure that nothing goes wrong. But he can only protect the front of the palace gate, and if he goes in again, not only He Jin will not agree, but the Yulin Army guarding the palace will not let him follow up.

Now Yuan Shao can only hope that the Yulin Army guarding the palace is strong enough to prevent everything from happening. Otherwise, if there was any accident, he didn't know if He Jin would be able to safely get from the palace.

Although He Jin was wearing a piece of armor, Yuan Shao knew that this was only a small protective measure. Under the chaotic knife, it doesn't matter if you are wearing light armor or iron armor, the same result is death.

Out of the door, Yuan Shao quickly gathered a group of soldiers waiting for him in front of the general's door, waiting for He Jin to get into the carriage. The carriage began to move towards the location of the palace, and Yuan Shao divided the thirty-five soldiers around him into three teams, one team was led by him, and he followed him on horseback behind the carriage. The other two teams were led by Yan Liangwen Chou, one on the left and one on the right, guarding both sides of the carriage.

Coupled with the guards brought by He Jin himself, it can be said that no matter what kind of situation he encounters, he has the power to fight.

The road was calm and calm, there was nothing unusual, the carriage drove smoothly in the middle of the road, and the pedestrians on the road saw the carriage coming, and they all gave way to a road.

Yuan Shao didn't think he would be attacked on the way to the palace, and it was too ridiculous to launch an attack in public. Not only did he bring soldiers to escort him, but now in Luoyang City, there are more soldiers patrolling the streets and streets. Wherever a situation arises, the patrolling soldiers will immediately rush to the place of the incident.

After some time, the walls of the palace were already in view. When the carriage was six hundred paces away from the palace gate, it stopped, and the driver lifted the curtain, and He Jin got out of the carriage.

After he got out of the carriage, he nodded to Yuan Shao and walked towards the palace gate.

Yuan Shao stopped in place, watching He Jin's back get farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into the palace gate. The ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he was really worried that the Ten Standing Servants would take a risk.

This possibility is still very large, especially now that the ten permanent servants have died first, the rabbit is sad. When the rabbit dies, the fox's grief may seem a little ridiculous, but the fox will probably understand its situation! The Ten Constant Attendants are not foxes, and the dead are not rabbits, they are the same kind, so what the Ten Permanent Attendants will do, that can also be guessed.

A spiritual light flashed from Yuan Shao's mind, dispelling all the chaos in his mind. Yuan Shao thought of what he was particularly concerned about, why did Queen He send someone to pass He Jin into the palace? At such a critical moment, such a move seems a little reckless.

The best way is to pass the decree directly and explain what you want to do to He Jin, so that it is simple and simple. Besides, how can you guarantee that among the three eunuchs, there will be no ten permanent attendants?

True or false, false and real, you never know if the people who follow you will be chess pieces laid by others in secret. This is the case outside, and it is the same inside the palace, ten permanent attendants, but it existed in the palace when the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, and such a long time was enough to lay one chess piece after another in the palace.

Whether the ten permanent servants have that kind of foresight, Yuan Shao doesn't know, but he can't gamble. However, now that He Jin has entered the palace, it is impossible for him to lead people into the palace.

Leading troops to storm the palace is a capital crime, and even the family behind him can't bear the guilt.

"I hope it's just him thinking about it." Yuan Shao sighed.

As soon as He Jin stepped into the palace gate, a little eunuch immediately greeted him. "General, are you here?"

He Jin nodded, his expression indifferent, this was already the biggest expression for this eunuch.

"Lead the way." He Jin said.

"Yes." The eunuch replied respectfully, turned around, and walked towards the location of the queen's palace.

Although He Jin knew the location of the queen's palace, walking in the palace was generally led by the palace people, and he was no exception.

Stepping on the footsteps, He Jin followed.

Everything was normal, and he didn't notice anything wrong. Whether it was the soldiers of the Yulin Army next to him, or the road in the palace, the eunuch who led the way in front of him did not appear unusually.

This eunuch was one of the eunuchs who served his sister, and although he was not the most trusted, he had served his sister long enough. Earlier this day, he and two other eunuchs had come to his house to deliver his will.

Now he has come to lead the way, just as before. In the past, when his sister had something to ask him to enter the palace, she also sent someone to call him, and asked his palace people to wait at the palace gate and take him to the palace.

Walking slowly, with his hands behind his back, the ordinary calm surroundings made He Jin gradually relax. It seems that there is no problem, and his worries are estimated to have appeared because of Yuan Shao.

The palace roads in the palace are very long, and they also extend in all directions, and those who have not lived in the palace for a period of time are sure to get lost as soon as they enter. There are also some palace people who are very familiar with the area of the palace he is in charge of, but once they get out of that area, they will also get lost.

Generally speaking, even the eunuchs and maids in the palace are not able to walk at will. Even those princes and ministers who are qualified to enter the palace are the same, they are usually led by palace people, so they will not get lost in the big labyrinth of the palace.

It takes a while to get inside the palace, to get to the location of those palaces. No one is qualified to ride a horse in the palace, and there is no one who rides in a sedan chair, which is the case for anyone, including He Jin.

The palace will not be anyone's back garden, the owner here, only the emperor alone. So a lot of things are not to be done here, no matter who you are.

Silent, He Jin didn't have much affection for the eunuch, and he didn't have anything to say to the eunuch who led the way in front of him. The kind of person who is a eunuch is the person He Jin hates the most, not only because of the ten permanent attendants, but also because of his identity and status, it is simply a shame to contact with eunuchs.

Crossing the threshold, He Jin walked into the new palace complex, and the door behind him suddenly closed in an instant. He Jin turned his head, his face changed for a while, and the people who closed the door were two eunuchs with long swords.

They had closed the door, cutting him off from the outside world, which meant that almost no one had noticed He Jin in this place now.

Only outside a door, a eunuch carrying a bucket and a broom began to sprinkle and sweep on the palace road. Yulin Jun passed by, and he just glanced at it casually, and continued the task of patrolling in Miyagi.

Turning around again, in front of He Jin's eyes, there were many eunuchs dodging. Like the two eunuchs who blocked his retreat, these eunuchs were holding long swords in their hands, long swords that shimmered in the cold.

In an instant, He Jin regretted very much, regretting that he should not have listened to Yuan Shao's words, so he fell into such a dangerous situation. This is clearly an ambush by the Ten Standing Attendants!

"Help..."He Jin just shouted out a word for help, but before his voice could be raised, it stopped abruptly.

He ducked to the side in a panic, dodging a stabbing sword. It's just that due to his perennial pampering, his body has become extremely sluggish, and although he dodged this sword, the robe he was wearing was still cut open, revealing the light armor inside.

If it weren't for this light armor, the blade of the long sword would have cut a bloody wound on his body.

It's too late to thank Yuan Shao, and if you want to thank him, you have to wait for him to survive. Dodging the stabbing sword again, he was so flustered that he stumbled and fell to the ground.

A sword had been slashed at his foot, and his whole face was bleeding profusely, and his whole face was pale with fear.

"Ahh Screaming in pain, He Jin hurriedly used his hands and feet together and crawled to the side.

He doesn't care about the dignity of the general, the pride of the general, he just wants to survive, survive! Even if he is crawling on the ground like a dog now, he doesn't care, as long as he can survive, survive!

He Jin's call was not answered, and the only response he got was those eunuchs with long swords, who rushed towards him. The long swords in their hands beckoned towards He Jin one after another, and the position of several long swords, the tip of the sword, was He Jin's neck.

The light armor protected He Jin's body, but what was not protected was the deadly part of his neck. Therefore, if you want to kill He Jin, the easiest way is to stab towards these positions.

He Jin also knew this, and kept dodging, using his body to meet those stabbing long swords. There were many white marks on his light armor, and there were also many bloody wounds on his hands and feet.

He was still crawling, his hands and feet were crawling quickly on the ground, and all the strength he had to feed was used.

He Jin never knew that his speed could become so fast, and his movements could be so sensitive, although the wounds on his hands and feet were constantly transmitting bursts of severe pain because of the violent movements. But at this time, the pain became less painful, no matter how much it hurt, no matter how much blood flowed, it could not affect the speed at which he crawled and escaped.

"Poof." He Jin was hit by a sword in the back, and the light armor was torn open, and the tip of the sword swept over He Jin's back, cutting out a bloody wound.

Screaming in pain, He Jin climbed faster. But he seemed to have sensed the imminence of death, and no matter how fast he climbed, death followed him and began to strangle him.

Rolling to the side, blood splattered from the wound and spilled onto the ground, several sword spikes stabbing at the place where he had just stayed.

But He Jin has been forced into a corner, with no way to retreat and no way to escape. His eyes were filled with despair, and he felt the strength in his body that was gradually losing strength.

"He's going to die here?" When the thought arose, He Jin regretted it incomparably, regretting that he did not listen to Yuan Shao's advice, and regretting that he was so careless.

"Bang!"

There was a sudden loud bang in his ears, and He Jin could probably tell that it was the sound of the door being smashed.

His hands were resting on his head, and his sword swung down, slashing past his arms. "Ah" screamed in pain, He Jin's body trembled, the pain he suffered today was already the sum of what he had suffered in the past.

But as long as you can live, then these pains are nothing! He Jin gritted his teeth, shrunk his body into a ball, held his head with both hands, and buried his head firmly in his chest and abdomen. All he could rely on now was the light armor he was wearing, and the loud noise he had just heard.

The door that was closed completely turned into several pieces of wood and scattered in all directions. Liu Xuan rushed in, and behind him, the eunuchs who were sweeping the palace just now had all turned into corpses.

Blood flowed sideways, wantonly flowing on the stone slabs paved in the palace road, and disappeared through the cracks.

Liu Xuan held his halberd and rushed towards the eunuchs who were besieging He Jin.

Fortunately, he came quickly, otherwise if he delayed some time, He Jin would definitely die. Although he has a little bit of fun now, as long as He Jin is rescued in time and then taken to heal, He Jin can also survive.

He was still worried, because he was worried, so he rushed to the palace gate to ask, and asked where he had entered the palace, and rushed all the way over. Only then did they arrive smoothly, and those that did not go well, those that were hindered, had become blood and corpses.

The halberd swung out and slammed into the blade of the long sword that the eunuch was blocking, knocking the blade backwards and breaking because it could not withstand the great force. In the end, the sword-wielding eunuch was violently knocked out, and in mid-air, blood spurted out of his mouth.

At that moment just now, the sound of ribs breaking in his chest was dense, and he didn't know how many were broken. By the time it landed, there was only the air coming out, and there wasn't much air coming in.

Liu Xuan's halberd continued to wave, drawing an arc, and the halberd roared and roared out. looked at the eunuchs who reacted, but in his eyes, these dozen eunuchs were just paper paste.
