Crises abound (2)
The Imperial City Guard is composed of two parts, divided into the Outer Guard Army and the Inner Guard Army, the Inner Guard Army is responsible for guarding the peace in the palace city, and is not allowed to leave the palace at will, and the Outer Guard Army is responsible for patrolling and guarding the Imperial City, so once the outer guard army is under martial law, it is equivalent to surrounding the entire imperial city.
I watched for a while near the gates, and indeed the guards were so well guarded that everyone who came in and out was stopped.
Do you want to show the sign again?
Will it still work?
I hesitated, but I also knew that the situation would not allow me to hesitate.
If the Wen family really wants to rebel, I am afraid that the sword is already pointed at the emperor at this moment, and when such a life is at stake, if I fail, there will be no one to save the emperor.
I thought.
Wrong!
It's not like no one can be saved.
The Song family, the Song family should not watch the Wen family rebel so blatantly, but the Song family is only powerful and has no military power.
I'm weighing whether I want to go out of the city alone to move the rescue soldiers, or I want to ask the Song family for help.
However, if the emperor really trusts the Song family, why don't you give the talisman to the Song family, and hand it over to me.
The Song family is a member of the imperial city, and he has the strength to stand side by side with the Wen family, he is not willing to hand over this talisman to the Song family, he has his own reasons, the situation of the Song family has changed strangely recently, I can't take risks.
So, it's up to me.
In any case, even if it is a dead end, you have to try.
I had made up my mind, I had no choice but to do it, and I walked up.
As soon as we approached the city gate, we were greeted by guards, politely explaining the situation to us and asking us to leave.
Normal methods certainly don't work.
So, I could only show the token and order: "Don't give way yet!" ”
"Emperor's token!" The guards were startled and hurriedly knelt down for me, but although they knelt, they had no intention of letting me go.
One of the guards whispered to the person next to him: "The emperor's personal token appears here, go and inform Commander Wen." ”
Another guard took the order and left, my heart sank, it was terrible, it alarmed the Wen family, the Wen family wanted to rebel, who would pay attention to the token, just give me a reason, and you can take me down.
I can't kill the chickens at all, what should I do? I'm afraid it's too late to leave now, and the guards won't let me go easily.
"Get out of the way!" I said anxiously.
"The situation is urgent, the situation is special, my subordinates have already gone to inform Commander Wen, please wait for the girl, and after verification, she will be released immediately." The guards at the head said to me with a respectful face.
Seeing his calm face, I was very anxious, if I failed, would the Luanling Empire change its surname to Wen?
Then I am not a sinner through the ages.
Just when I was at a loss, I heard a familiar voice from behind me: "Qin Lin? ”
I turned around and saw Leng Cheng walking towards me, this time he was followed by Ah Yuan and Ah Qin.
"Leng Cheng!" I call him.
They are all here, I am happy, at such a critical time, he can actually meet Leng Cheng, it seems that he should also have something to do, and he happens to be out of the city.
"Can't you get out of town now?" Leng Cheng greeted him and asked.
"Yes, the Imperial City is under martial law, and you are not allowed to enter or leave the Imperial City during martial law." The leader of the guards replied.
I quietly tugged at Leng Cheng's sleeve.
Leng Cheng knew, so he and I stepped aside, and Yuan Aqin didn't approach.
"Qin Lin, this in your hand is the emperor's personal token, holding it symbolizes the presence of Emperor Luanling, how can you have this?" Leng Cheng noticed the token in my hand, and he asked suspiciously.
And I didn't have time to explain everything to him, so I could only say, "Leng Cheng, I don't have time to explain, it's just that I may need your help." ”
Leng Cheng was puzzled: "What's the matter?" If I can help, I will do my best. ”
"The Wen family wants to rebel, the emperor's life hangs by a thread, he handed me the talisman and asked me to go outside the city to transfer troops, but I can't get out of the city, what do you say?" I can only say it roughly, and when I heard it coldly, I was slightly stunned.
Then, as if he was not sure, he asked again: "The emperor ...... The emperor handed you the talisman? ”
"Yes." I took out the talisman, and Leng Cheng hurriedly reached out and covered it with his sleeve.
"If Ah Yuan and I try to the death, we can break through the city gate to protect it, are you willing to hand over the talisman to me, and I will complete it for you." Leng Cheng looked at me seriously and said slowly.
I have always known that Ah Yuan, as Leng Cheng's guard, is not bad in martial arts, and Leng Cheng is deeply hidden, so naturally it will not be bad.
When I met them in the mountain hut, I didn't expect him to come forward and help me at this time.
In this situation, I don't know who else I can turn to other than Leng Cheng.
"Here comes the one who returns." Leng Cheng raised his head and looked into the distance.
No time.
Can't hesitate any longer!
I stuffed the talisman to Leng Cheng and pleaded, "Please." ”
"Okay, I have one more request, would you like to hear it?" Leng Cheng said.
I wondered, "What? ”
"I have no identity, rashly holding the talisman, that group of soldiers may not be willing to listen to me, if there is a personal token of the emperor, I will do things......" Leng Cheng said embarrassedly.
I understood what he meant, and this is probably what the emperor meant by handing over the two brands to me, I nodded, and handed over the emperor's special token to Leng Cheng.
Leng Cheng nodded with me, put away the talisman and token, he turned around, walked towards Ah Yuan Ah Qin, and said, "Ah Qin, protect Miss Luo, Ah Yuan, follow me." ”
"Yes." A Yuan Aqin responded at the same time.
Leng Cheng glanced at Ah Yuan, and Ah Yuan immediately understood the intention, he rushed towards the guards and drew his sword.
"Someone! Guard! Someone is going to break into the gates! The guards shouted.
I have never seen Ah Yuan make a move, but I didn't expect his martial arts to be so high, ordinary people are not Ah Yuan's opponents at all, sword light and sword shadow, three times five divided by two, it opened a way for Leng Cheng.
He had no intention of killing, he stopped at the point, Leng Cheng followed him, they snatched two war horses, had no intention of fighting, and rode away.
In fact, it was considered a sudden, which caught them off guard.
"Someone! Hurry up and report the situation to Commander Wen and General Wen! The guards shouted.
There was chaos at the city gate, and when I saw them out of the city, I was relieved, but fortunately I met Leng Cheng, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do.
"Miss Luo, long time no see." Qin stood in front of me.
I responded: "Miss Aqin, long time no see, don't call me Miss, I'm an ordinary palace maid now." ”
"Don't be in a hurry, I haven't had time to apologize to you yet." Ah Qin clenched his fists and bowed slightly.
I shook my head: "No, I just didn't expect that we could meet in the Imperial City, your son-in-law is really powerful, and the business has been done in the Imperial City." ”
"Gongzi originally intended to come to the Imperial City, but now this Imperial City is not peaceful." Ah Qin's face was expressionless, and his tone did not fluctuate.
"yes." I sighed, "It's really not peaceful, by the way, what about Qinfen?" Didn't I join you today? ”
"Miss Qin Fan is still in the Song Mansion, we went out of the city today to do hard work, and Miss Qin Fan didn't follow." Ah Qin replied honestly.
Her attitude is much better than when she was in Rindu.
Now, the affairs outside the city are up to Leng Cheng, and I can only wait here for his return, hoping that everything will go well with him.
Hopefully, all the best.
