Chapter 348: There Is a Traveler in the Palace 40

In the silence of the night, a team of men marched through the streets of the Imperial City.

It was a very neat and planned force, and they marched in silence, without making any superfluous sound except for the neat sound of horses' hooves and footsteps.

Tonight, the sky was cloudy, obscuring the moonlight.

This forward force is completely shrouded in shadows, perfect for the mission they are about to perform.

The team made their way through the rows of buildings and through the dimly lit streets, with a clear goal.

Palace.

This is a small door on the side of the palace.

The inner door, which had already been prepared, should open the deadbolt and let the team in.

The mighty procession passed through the small gate, and roughly counted the past, there were about three thousand people.

This team is definitely a lot inside the Imperial City.

You must know that in normal times, any troops with more than 200 people will never be allowed to enter the imperial city without the emperor's approval.

The total number of Jin troops in the palace is less than 5,000, and they were ordered to go out of the city to suppress the bandits and capture the Fox Ripple tribe during the day, and now there are only more than 2,000 people left in the palace.

There are about 1,000 city defense troops outside the imperial city, and there are also imperial city troops stationed ten miles outside the city.

However, if there is a rebellion in the palace, the rebels only need to block a few entrances and exits of the palace, and it will be difficult for the troops from outside to enter.

And the whip is beyond reach, and when the people outside the palace arrive, everything in the palace may have already settled.

What's more, there is a small army in the Jin army that has also defected.

The leader of the mutiny opened the door for Huang Wenqin and let their team in.

The people near the small door were all their own people, and Huang Wenqin and the others came in very smoothly.

They didn't face any obstacles, which seemed to be a sign that things were about to go according to plan.

"Where is Huang Yanqin?"

"Back to the eldest prince, the crown prince.... The second prince is still in Chongyun Palace. ”

Huang Wenqin sneered, "Heh, even if he is self-aware, he knows that his position is not justified, he doesn't dare to sit on the throne, he only dares to shrink in his own dormitory!"

Good brother, how can you covet this position? Wait for my brother to pick it up! ”

After speaking, Huang Wenqin carried out military dispatch.

Some of them went to Wanle Palace to arrest Concubine Qin, and then they could use it as a bargaining chip to threaten Huang Yanqin.

and forced Concubine Qin to change her words, saying that she conspired with Gonggong Guo to kill the emperor that day, and falsely passed on the holy decree.

Most of the people followed Huang Wenqin and went directly to Chongyun Palace to crusade against the sinner who killed the monarch - Huang Yanqin!

The soldiers divided into two ways, and everyone set off in a mighty way.

Huang Wenqin didn't go to Concubine Qin, in his opinion, such a weak woman can't help but be able to do any tricks.

To be able to get the throne before everyone else must have been Huang Yanqin's idea.

He couldn't help but be a little surprised, feeling that he might have looked down on his younger brother before.

Where is this kind and harmless little white flower?

It's obviously a wolf in sheep's clothing, and he has always deceived all of them with his pure appearance.

deceived the ministers, deceived his father, and deceived his brother!

The more Huang Wenqin thought about it, the more angry he became, he just wanted to catch Huang Yanqin quickly, and then beat him up to let him know who was the boss.

Chongyun Palace is located to the east of the Imperial Palace, and the location is relatively remote.

Usually, there will be teachers, princesses, etc. come to teach the princes, although the princes are not very old, but people in this era are generally precocious.

Therefore, in order to avoid suspicion, the palaces of several princes in the east are some distance from the locations of the other concubines.

Starting from the small gate, on the way to Chongyun Palace, Huang Wenqin did not encounter any obstacles.

It went so well.

There was obviously only one team in the Jin army, but it was not discovered during the whole process.

Maybe God is helping him.

The rebellion itself requires some luck.

There are palace lamps on both sides of the palace road at intervals, and Huang Wenqin rode on a tall horse, looking around by the faint light of the fire.

Dark clouds cover the moon, and there is no other illuminating light except for these palace lamps, which are not bright.

He walked and walked, but suddenly it was not good.

It seems too quiet around.

The palace road is flanked by a long section of high walls, and a large army walks in it, because it is so quiet, you can even hear the echo of footsteps.

It stands to reason that the first emperor has just died, and his bones are not cold and have not yet been buried.

The new emperor has not yet ascended the throne, and the country is at its most turbulent time, how can the palace guards be so weak?

Even if half of the Jin army is temporarily transferred, and there is still a mutinous army, but the rest are all elites, so they shouldn't have such a low vigilance, right?

Huang Wenqin chuckled in his heart, he just wanted to remind everyone to be cautious, when he suddenly heard a burst of "sighing" sound of breaking the wind.

There is an enemy attack!

Huang Wenqin didn't have time to shout, he could only roll down on the spot, dodging the arrows that were shooting at him.

However, just dodging one wave, the next wave came.

Huang Wenqin's cronies didn't think about it, and shouted, "Protect the eldest prince." ”

At the same time, some people moved closer to him and built a human wall for him.

At this time, on top of the high walls on both sides were a group of guards, armed with bows and arrows, shooting arrows inward without interruption.

The rain of arrows was dense and overwhelming.

The people inside the wall were like turtles trapped in an urn, and they were caught off guard.

How did they know that there was an ambush around.

At this time, Huang Wenqin's first reaction was, "Tricked, could it be that there are traitors among us?" ”

His mind was sifting through possible candidates as he raced forward surrounded by his cronies.

Under their desperate resistance and dodging, they finally came to the end of the palace road.

There is a locked wooden door.

According to the plan, the person who is inside will open the door lock.

The leader tried to push the door, but it actually pushed the door open.

Without much thought, they immediately walked through the door and headed inside.

The terrain in the palace road was too low for combat, and they needed to leave first and go to an open place now.

So the crowd rushed in through the door.

Behind the door is a garden, and beyond this garden, it is Chongyun Palace.

Huang Wenqin and his cronies rushed through the door as soon as possible, hurried towards the garden, and the people behind followed in.

However, before anyone could get halfway there, a large group of people suddenly rushed out from both sides of the door, blocking the way.

They killed the person at the door, then closed the door and locked it.

Huang Wenqin's troops were immediately split in half.

The sudden attack of feathered arrows caused them to quickly lose five or six hundred men.

The remaining 2,000 people were divided into two sections.

Divide and dissolve, each one breaks.

It seems that Huang Yanqin has been on guard for a long time, and there is a master of strategy behind him.
