Chapter 183: The Charm of the Devil (6)
Su Ting straightened his clothes, asked people to prepare a sedan chair, and went to the palace, this time, the prince finally pinched his hand, and by the way, he could also send Changle who was in the way far away, thinking about it, it was beautiful in his heart, and his mood had never been so good.
Nan Jinyan's personal soldiers and the officers and soldiers at the south gate were at odds, after all, his side did not have an advantage in numbers, and he had always focused on defense, and he did not attack or injure the guards, he came to the south gate just to cover Changle.
"Wechen see His Royal Highness the Prince!" Tang Maojin respectfully saluted Nan Jin's words, "Weichen helped His Highness bring the token." With both hands on the prince's order, the two soldiers behind him held Changle to death.
Nan Jinyan raised his hand and said loudly: "Stop!" He took the token, looked at the two soldiers behind Tang Mao, and scolded: "Don't let go yet? ”
At this moment, the prince's left and right guards arrived, nearly a thousand people, only to see their people raising swords to protect the prince, and the guards at the south gate were raising their swords as if to attack the prince.
"Protect the Prince!" There was a sonorous and powerful sound, like the roar of a bell across the night sky, and before Nan Jinyan could react, his people had already rushed up to correct all the officers and soldiers at the city gate on the spot.
As soon as a soldier ran in front of Tang Maojin, he was hacked to death by the prince's people, blood splashed on Tang's face, and he was shocked and panicked, could it be that the prince helped Changle escape tonight just a pretense? He's ...... Is this going to be the opposite? Didn't he come to die? I couldn't help but feel weak in my legs, and I almost didn't stand firm.
The two soldiers who escorted Changle were frightened, and Changle took the opportunity to shake them off and shouted at Nan Jinyan: "Stop!" Tell them to stop! ”
Nan Jinyan stood on the wheel, looking at the guards of the city gate who fell one after another, looking at the blood all over the ground, his mind was blank, "buzzing", and the whole person was stunned......
"Bang Bang Bang" first the sound of neat footsteps echoed, pulling Nan Jinyan's mind back, and then, a large piece of glittering firelight reflected the night sky, it was Yu Linwei.
Changle was dumbfounded, Yu Linwei came, proving that his father already knew about it, and it was Yu Linwei who came, could it be that his father also suspected that Nan Jinyan was going to rebel?
"His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty is invited!"
Yu Linwei's team instantly "swooped", separated from the middle, and made a way, and Su Tingjing walked out with his head held high.
Su Tingjing? How is he? Nan Jinyan looked at him carefully from head to toe, lowered his eyes, and smiled coldly, "Su Xiang is really everywhere." He bowed down and got into the carriage.
"Princess? Please! Su Tingjing's hand spread towards the carriage, Changle took a deep breath, and then got into the carriage as well, Su Tingjing glanced at Tang who was pale with fright, "Lord Tang, let's go......" turned around and ordered: "Go back to the palace!" ”
Entering the palace, Nan Jinyan and Su Tingjing walked in the front, Tang Maojin and Changle followed, and the group came to the door of the imperial study, Su Tingjing turned his head and said to Changle: "The princess stays, please wait here." ”
"Why? Why can't I enter this palace? ”
Su Tingjing arched his hand and said, "How dare Wei Chen speculate on the holy will!" ”
"Are you using your father to press the palace?"
"Wechen doesn't dare." Turning to Nan Jinyan and Tang Maojin, he said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Tang, please." ”
Nan Xiao sat on the chair in the imperial study, wearing a robe, looking at the folds on the kang table, and there was a bowl of steaming soup in the corner of the table, which should have just been boiled before it was served, and it was strange that his father-in-law was not waiting on the side.
Nan Jinyan glanced at the folds on the kang table, where did they get so many folds? He has already approved the excerpts that were submitted recently.
He took a closer look at the folds that Nan Xiao had opened, and they had already been approved with cinnabar, which was his own handwriting, and it turned out that these folds were moved from the East Palace.
Nan Jinyan's heart flashed with an unspeakable loss, it may be that he is thinking too much, his father is Xu to see if he can do anything recently, after all, it is father and son.
"Smack", Nan Xiao slammed the fold in his hand on the kang table, pulled the robe draped on his body, turned his head to look at Nan Jinyan and asked, "What?" Is the prince impatient? ”
Can't wait? Nan Jinyan didn't understand what Nan Xiao said again, it wasn't that he was stupid, it was because he had never thought of the word rebellion in his bones, so he really couldn't think of anything related to these two words.
"The son is dull, and he asks his father to make it clear."
Su Tingjing stood aside and reminded Nan Jinyan softly: "Your Majesty is talking about the prince leading troops to attack the city tonight. ”
"With troops? Raid the city? Nan Jinyan hurriedly knelt down, "Enlighten the emperor!" Erchen didn't lead troops tonight, and he didn't attack the city! Erchen is ......"
"Your Highness!" Su Tingjing interrupted Nan Jinyan's words, "Tonight, the South Gate is full of blood, everyone has seen it with their own eyes!" When the old minister arrived, all the guards in the southern city were killed! It's terrible, Your Highness! As he spoke, he raised his arm, pulled his sleeve and wiped his tears.
Nan Jinyan was in a trance for a while, frightened, "No, it's not like this!" Erchen, Erchen just wants to send the imperial sister out of the city! ”
"Then why did His Highness mobilize the left and right guards of the East Palace? Why do you want to kill all the guards? Su Tingjing refused to give up, and further pressed Nan Jinyan.
Nan Jinyan pointed at Su Tingjing and reprimanded angrily: "You don't want to reverse right and wrong in front of your father!" Nan Jinyan knelt down and moved a few steps in front of Nan Xiao, "Father, Erchen really doesn't know why the left and right guard rates appeared, Erchen only brought a dozen personal soldiers, and Erchen really didn't mobilize the guard rate!" You trust me! ”
"Father!" Changle rushed in, knelt next to Nan Jinyan, and raised three fingers, "I, Changle, swear to my ancestors and ancestors, the prince has no dissenting intentions!" Father! ”
Changle rushed to Nan Xiao, "Blame me for today's incident, I have to let Jin Yan send me out of the city, because my daughter doesn't want to marry Xishu, that kind of remote place!" It's all my fault! ”
Then she pointed at Tang and said, "Lord Tang can also testify!" We have already been arrested by Lord Tang before we leave the city, how can we mobilize the guards of the East Palace again? ”
At this time, the father-in-law came in at a trot with the dust, he turned his back to everyone and whispered a few words to Nan Xiao, Nan Xiao looked at Tang Maojin and asked, "Is there someone in Dali Temple who escaped from prison?" ”
"Emperor Qiqi, since Weichen took up the post of Dali Siqing, there has never been an unjust, false and wrongful case, and there is no one who can't be caught, let alone escaped from prison, if you want to escape from under the nose of this official, it is impossible!" Tang was very confident, but what he said was not a lie.
Nan Xiao lightly tapped the kang table twice with his fingers, and asked again: "Then, how did Tang Aiqing know that the prince was going out of the city with the princess tonight?" ”
