Chapter 117: Palace Change

Outside the main hall of His Majesty Dan is a group of courtiers and concubines of Emperor Chengzhao headed by Ji Yunye, dressed in plain to describe sadness, and the square under His Majesty Dan is a halberd soldier headed by Ji Jinyan.

Ji Yunye stood upright, looked down at the people under the black pressure of His Royal Highness, and said in a condensed voice: "Today, my father is in mourning, and it is disrespectful to see me not kneeling, and seeing my father's coffin not kneeling, it is for disloyalty, filial piety and injustice." ”

Ji Jinyan was awe-inspiring, and said in a deep voice: "You killed the king and usurped the throne, how dare you call it 'I'?" ”

At that time, there was a white rainbow running through the sun on the Qianqing Palace, indicating that the king was in trouble, and everyone was stunned when they saw it.

Ji Yunye's heart was also shocked, in order to appease people's hearts, he handed the edict to Lian Xi and said: "King Jin is one step late, I have never heard the edict of my father, and I have read it again by Lao Lian's father-in-law!" ”

Lian Xi took the edict and said loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, Ji Yunye, the eldest son of Emperor Chengzhao, has a valuable character, both virtue and righteousness, Hui Gong Yue Gu, Tao Ze Liufang, the upper should be the mandate of heaven, the lower and the people's hearts, deep Xiao Zhen bowed, will be able to overcome the unification, and succeed me to the throne that is, the emperor." Chin this. ”

After reading it, he handed it over to the minister to circulate to confirm its authenticity.

When all the ministers agreed that this was the true work of Emperor Chengzhao, Ji Jinyan questioned: "My father is just a little sick, how could he suddenly die?" It must be Ji Yunye who took advantage of the king's envoy Nanxiu to force his father to write an edict to inherit the throne, and then poisoned his father to death in order to seize the throne. ”

At this time, Sun Changyi, the secretary of the military department, came out and said: "Before the death of the first emperor, the prime minister and the six Shangshu were present, and the first emperor did personally say that he was located in the king of Yun. ”

Ji Jinyan reprimanded: "It must be Ji Yunye who used some means to manipulate his father, otherwise why would he take this king away?" ”

Ji Yunye's voice came coldly: "I am also very curious, since you went to participate in Nanxiu's centennial celebration, how did you return to the capital in less than two days?" The law of Dongli stipulates that the prince's palace shall not exceed 3,000 soldiers, and you are raising these 30,000 soldiers just to force the palace today? ”

Ji Jin said righteously: "The reason why this king can stand here at this moment is because this king has long been aware that you will make some moves during this king's envoy to Nanxiu, so it is easy for people to make this king envoy to Nanxiu, otherwise wouldn't you let your conspiracy succeed?" As for raising soldiers, it is only for today's punishment of adultery and evil, and for the sake of heaven. ”

Ji Yunye said appreciatively: "King Yun is really righteous and awe-inspiring, but several imperial doctors have already experienced it, and my father died of a heart disease caused by wind and cold, and there is no sign of poisoning. How can you wrongfully blame me for poisoning my father? ”

Ji Jin said aggressively: "Then do you dare to open the coffin for an autopsy?" ”

Ji Yunye's eyes dimmed, and everyone suddenly boiled. Except for the ministers who took a wait-and-see attitude, the rest of the ministers were unanimously opposed, believing that the opening of the coffin and the autopsy was a blasphemy and great disrespect to the Son of Heaven.

Ji Jinyan's momentum became a little more vigorous: "Since you don't dare to open the coffin for the autopsy, that is to say that there is a ghost in your heart, and today this king will do the right thing for heaven and send this evil obstacle who killed the king and usurped the throne down to be buried for his father." ”

As soon as he gave the order, the soldiers who were waiting in the square were about to kill the general. But at this moment, many archers suddenly appeared on the walls and eaves around the Qianqing Palace, aiming at them and preparing to shoot.

Ji Jinyan hurriedly made a pause gesture, squinted at those people, and saw that they were all wearing forbidden army uniforms, so he hooked his lips and smiled: "Do you think these forbidden soldiers will listen to you?" ”

Ji Yunye's face was solemn, and his voice came faintly from above His Majesty: "King Yun might as well try it." ”

Ji Jinyan ordered again: "Rush up to this king, take down Ji Yunye, and seal the first marquis." ”

When the soldiers heard this, they rushed upwards as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Above His Majesty Dan, Ji Chuyang walked out of the ministers, he raised the forbidden army dragon talisman in his hand high, and then waved it hard, and saw ten thousand arrows fired together, and as soon as the 30,000 soldiers rushed up to the long Dan Majesty, a large number of them fell.

Ji Chuyang looked at Ji Jinyan with a cold face, and raised his right hand again to make a gesture of retraction, and the rain of arrows stopped.

Ji Jinyan glared at Ji Chuyang angrily and said: "This king helped you find out who was behind the scenes, you promised to help this king, why did you go back on your word?" ”

Ji Chuyang smiled slightly: "Well, when you go down, this king will explain to you." ”

Hearing this, Ji Yunye couldn't help but squint at Ji Chuyang, and there was a dark tide surging in his eyes.

Ji Jinyan suddenly raised his voice and laughed: "I don't know who killed the deer today." ”

He made a gesture, and suddenly a signal flare rose up in the air behind him, soaring into the sky, and then burst into countless fireworks with a bang, which was very dazzling.

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked, but they heard Ji Jinyan say: "This king wants to see if they break through the palace gate first, or you take down this king first." ”

As soon as he gave the order, all the soldiers braved the rain of arrows to kill in front of the hall where Ji Yunye was, and soon they were killed with five hundred purple-clothed guards. The Praetorian Guards, armed with bows and arrows, also abandoned their bows and swords and jumped off the top of the wall and the palace, and entered the siege.

For a time, the entire Qianqing Palace was shrouded in a thick bloody rain. Fang Quan, the commander of the purple-clothed guard, escorted the panicked ministers and palace concubines into the palace, and he himself guarded outside the hall like a door god, and swept the soldiers who rushed forward one by one.

Watching the vivid lives pass away in an instant, Ji Yunye, who was under the protection of the purple guard, only felt that his heart was like a knife. But at that moment, a carrier pigeon flew towards him from the sky like an arrow from a string, and he reached out and let it fall into his palm. When he took off the bamboo tube and read the letterhead, his eyes were even more cold and abnormal, he was angry and dantian, stepped a little, jumped on the top of the hall, and said with internal force: "Stop it, otherwise we will continue to kill each other, and today will be the day of the death of the country." ”

The people in the battle stopped as if they had been immobilized, and then looked up at him in astonishment.

Ji Yunye said in a deep voice: "In order to prevent the general Lan Jingye, the defender of Lincheng, from transferring troops to support the imperial capital, King Jin colluded with Beiyu, so that Beiyu sent 300,000 troops to the border, and dragged the 200,000 troops stationed in Lincheng by land and sea, and secretly put 50,000 Beiyu soldiers from Yumen Gorge to dress up as ordinary people, and then were put into the capital by Prime Minister Liu's henchmen and provided them with weapons. Now it is these Beiyu soldiers who are attacking the palace gate. ”

After finishing the sentence, everyone was in an uproar, and they pointed the finger at Ji Jinyan and Liu Wanxing, angrily accusing them of betraying the country with their own fornication, and the crime was unforgivable, which made them angry, saying that Ji Yunye deliberately fanned the flames and confused the public.

Ji Yunye waved his hand to suppress everyone's voices, and said to Ji Jinyan: "Maybe King Jin doesn't know, the 50,000 Beiyu soldiers you quietly put into the city are not here to help you, but to capture the imperial city when we are both defeated." And the Lincheng side is not a feint, but a real battle. Now the losses of both sides have been tens of thousands. As he spoke, he threw out the little bamboo knot.

Ji Jinyan reached out to catch it in shock, and took out the paper inside tremblingly, only to see that it was written: According to the arrested spies, Beiyu intends to break through Lincheng and join forces with Beiyu soldiers who have infiltrated the capital to take Dongli. Now in the first battle, both sides have lost more than 10,000 soldiers. It is stamped with Lan Jingye's general seal.

Although what the letter said had long been expected by Ji Yunye, it was confirmed at this moment, and he still hated it.

Ji Jinyan was stunned, but everyone was boiling. There are those who are indignant and want to take down Ji Jinyan, and there are also those who can't believe that Ji Yunye spread rumors and has no choice but to forge letterheads.

Ji Yunye took out a silk silk from his arms, raised it and said: "This is a mutually beneficial agreement signed between King Yun and Beiyu, Beiyu helped King Yun force the palace to win the throne, and King Yun ceded the ten cities of the border pass to Beiyu after ascending the throne." He threw the silk silk out as he spoke, "There are the seal of Beiyu and the seal of the prince, as well as the handwriting and seal of King Yun." ”

Ji Jinyan jumped up quickly and wanted to snatch it back, but the quick-eyed soldier flew to catch it before him, and then quickly spread it out. When I saw the content clearly, my eyes suddenly burst into flames. When everyone saw this, they rushed to circulate it.

Ji Yunye couldn't help but look at Ji Jinyan, only to see that his face was as pale as dirt, and his face was dejected. Without waiting for him to give the order, Ji Jinyan's subordinates abandoned their weapons one after another. Seeing the opportunity, the four purple-clothed guards hurriedly stepped forward and subdued Ji Jinyan and Liu Wanxing to the ground.

At this time, someone came to report that the palace was about to be captured by the Beiyu soldiers.

Everyone was immediately full of anger, and they all wanted to kill them and fight to the death.

Ji Yunye ordered in a deep voice: "First press down King Yun and Prime Minister Liu." ”

After the imperial guards took the order, Ji Yunye raised his voice and said: "Today's national disaster is at the head, as a royal soldier, it is your bounden duty to kill the enemy and defend the country. As long as the people of King Yun can repent of their past sins and make meritorious deeds, I will not punish their crimes, but will reward them with other soldiers. ”

When Ji Jinyan's soldiers heard this, they all knelt down and shouted long live, and they were all dissatisfied with the gratitude of being reincarnated.

Ji Yunye raised his eyes and looked at the palace gate, and saw the signal of the Xiao cavalry camp rising, so he ordered: "All the soldiers listen to the order and immediately guard the palace gate with me!" ”

The group arrived at the palace gate, and Ji Yunye jumped on the city tower first, and saw that the black pressure 50,000 Xiao cavalry was fighting with 50,000 Beiyu soldiers. As the saying goes, the black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it, and the light opens to the sun.

The palace gate was opened, and the soldiers in the palace and the cavalry outside the palace attacked inside and outside, forming an encirclement of the Beiyu soldiers. Jin Ge Iron Horse, the sound of killing shook the sky. Whatever the soldiers point, they are invincible.

Ji Yunye's eyes were dim as he watched the cruel harvesting of fresh lives, as if admiring a picture painted with blood. He looked up at the sky, and felt that even the sun was stained with scarlet. Suddenly, he saw a white shadow piercing the blood-colored sky and flying towards him, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to meet the final sentence.

After reading the letterhead, he closed his eyes tightly, and his heart was indescribable. When he opened his eyes again, the coldness in his eyes had melted, replaced by a feeling of compassion, and he said with internal force: "Beiyu soldiers should be captured." Now your palace has planted the flag of the Eastward Departure. ”

As soon as these words came out, the city was silent for a moment, followed by a boil.
