Chapter 420: Soldiers Coming to the City 2
"I also hope that Your Majesty will focus on the dragon body, go north first, avoid the edge for the time being, and wait for everything to return to calm, and ...... return" In the imperial study, a group of confidants and ministers were bitterly admonishing the emperor to hide out.
The Emperor frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, and he didn't know if he had listened to the ministers.
When the confident Yang army had arrived twenty miles outside the imperial capital, not to mention what the chaos had become outside, everyone was scrambling to go out for refuge.
For this reason, I don't know how many innocent people died at the four city gates, where the corpses were carried away one after another, and the blood soaked the soil, and even in the middle of the night, deep traces could be seen.
Even the palace began to move, although the queen suppressed it, but it still couldn't stop the fear in the hearts of those palace maids and eunuchs.
Some people have already taken advantage of the chaos to pack their luggage and sneak out of the palace, and there are no less than 100 people who have been caught.
"Your Majesty......" Seeing that the emperor did not react, the minister was about to start persuading again.
At this moment, the emperor suddenly looked up at the ministers below and said, "I'm gone, who is here to rule, He'er is still in their hands!" ”
He is not afraid of death, but he is even more reluctant to this position.
has been doing it for more than ten years, and now let him let go of how willing he is.
"Your Majesty, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood."
"Your Majesty just went out to take refuge temporarily, not lost, and when we took a breath, we turned around and cleaned them up."
This huge palace, who wants to be in charge, this life is almost unsaved, what do you care about it!
Moreover, it is impossible for the rebels to burn down the palace.
"Although General Xu came out with bad news, but without His Highness, I think His Highness is still safe at this time."
Since they have arrested His Highness, it is impossible for them to execute His Highness quietly, and no news is the best news.
"But...... How did I leave, wasn't it easy for me to be discovered? ”
It's not that the emperor doesn't want to go, he is more greedy for life and afraid of death.
He felt safer here than outside.
In addition to the army that collected the city gate, there were also guarded by the Royal Forest Army.
Presumably, no matter how powerful the Xinyang army is, it can't attack it.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it, the ministers will arrange it when the time comes, and no one will find out that Your Majesty has left."
As soon as this sentence was finished, a minister added: "As long as Your Majesty's actions are kept secret, don't even say anything about the Queen Mother in the end." ”
The more people who know His Majesty's whereabouts, the more dangerous it is.
The emperor was reluctant to take the throne, and how he was worried about his son-in-law, but between the choice of life and death, he resolutely chose life.
"Your Majesty, this matter should be sooner rather than later~" Seeing that the emperor's face was a little loose, everyone added a fire.
The emperor's hand was on the dragon case, and his heart moved slightly, if he died, there would really be nothing.
But if you're still alive, you'll have to make a comeback one day.
"Prepare now, leave now." As soon as the emperor figured it out, he immediately made a decision.
Tell this matter to continue, and not publicize it, even the concubines in the harem can't hide it, and even the queen can't reveal the news.
The emperor finally knew the trade-off, and those ministers breathed a long sigh of relief, worried that their majesty would be reluctant to eliminate the rich and noble, and would be reluctant to leave.
The emperor was about to leave secretly, and in the harem, all the palace concubines, princesses, and princesses gathered in Weiyang Palace, where the queen lived, and even the usual greetings were not so complete.
In addition to the old age, the adult prince who has gone out to open the mansion and the princess who has become married.
The queen mother was worried about herself, and she couldn't listen to what the palace concubines were saying, and she didn't even notice that the tea in the teacup was gone.
I took a sip of the teacup, but I almost choked her to death after a mouthful of tea.
Ahem-
"Niangniang......" The grandmother beside her hurriedly went to calm the queen, looked at the absent-minded palace maid on the side with her eyes, and said fiercely: "Don't you want to live?" Didn't you see that the lady ran out of tea? ”
Mama can't wait to go up and pinch it twice, this rebel army hasn't come in yet, what are they doing?
"Mama forgives the sin, and the slave will renew the tea for the mother." The palace maid hurriedly ran over with a teacup, for fear that she would be punished in the next moment.
Although she was very afraid of Mama, compared to the rebels, she felt that Mama had nothing to fear.
Everyone looked at each other, how could the queen mother make such a low-level mistake, did she hear what they were saying just now.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our queen mother knows your worries, but our mother is even more worried, our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still in the hands of the Xinyang Army and has not been rescued!"
Mama has some atmosphere, not to mention that the Xinyang Army has not yet entered the army, even if they come, there is no way to do it!
They are a woman, can they still wear armor and go into battle?
What's more, His Majesty is still sitting in front, what are they afraid of?
The worst result is that a white silk is finished.
It's better than falling into the hands of the rebels and being humiliated by them.
"......" everyone was a little sneering.
They knew about it, but what could they do?
For them. This queen is their pillar.
What else can they do besides coming to find the queen mother?
The queen mother coughed for a long time, and finally coughed up the tea residue in her throat, and raised her hand to stop Mama's movements.
Raising the face that was haggard and pale because of worry, he said, "You don't have to be careful, even if the Xinyang army comes in, they won't kill you." ”
"The Xinyang Army has always been famous and well-known, and it is highly disciplined, and it will not kill innocents indiscriminately."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the young children, and his eyes were filled with pity.
But no matter how good the reputation is, it is impossible to flow the blood of the royal family of the previous dynasty.
In the future, it will be a problem to raise tigers.
Alas~ I just hope to push them back.
The queen's words caused a lot of discussion in the palace, will the rebels really not kill them?
They are not afraid of death, they just pity the young children, they are all innocent.
They still have a lot of youth, and they should live carefree.
"Is that really the case?" A palace concubine muttered.
I'm afraid that even if I don't die, I will live in a narrow wall for the rest of my life!
I can only stay inside for the rest of my life, I can't get out for the rest of my life, I can't see the prosperity outside, I can only listen to others' relays, so will the wolfberry really be happy?
"What about Your Majesty? It's time for dinner. The queen turned around, looked at Mama and asked softly.
Now is the time when Your Majesty is needed, and you must not exhaust your body, otherwise it will only make the rebels more successful.
"Your Majesty is discussing with the ministers in the Imperial Study." It's time for life and death, how can you still eat.
And the emperor, who everyone thought was still in the imperial study, had already changed into his regular clothes at this time, and quietly left the palace in the arrangement.
