Yao Nian thought she was familiar with the route in the palace and wanted to lead the way for her father, but who knew that her father took her to turn the road she had never walked.

Prince Katsu laughed at his daughter: "How long have you been in the palace, before my father and your mother got married and went to Kishu, I walked through every corner of this imperial city." ”

"Father, how much does the imperial grandfather like you?" Yao Nian asked.

"He made me nervous for a while, what if you were a son." Prince Sheng said, "Dad doesn't know how to treat his two sons fairly, and I'm even more afraid that your imperial grandfather will not like you, or dislike your brother from now on, but fortunately, you are a girl, so you don't have this concern." ”

Yao Nian asked: "So later, you and your mother no longer have children?" ”

The prince smiled: "You and your brother did not die young, they both grew up strongly, it is so hard to give birth to a child, is your mother marrying me just to pass on the ancestry?" ”

As he spoke, he motioned for his daughter to be silent, and after avoiding the patrolling guards, he hid in the concubine's palace.

The concubine now eats fasting and recites the Buddha, ignoring the world, and there are few people in the palace, after the father and daughter set a foothold, Yao Nian came out alone, and it didn't take long to get back a palace maid who was knocked out, and then went out after changing her clothes, and she had to find a tall eunuch to start.

Coincidentally, a team of guards patrolled in front, and Yao Nian learned from other palace maids to stand aside, but people who were familiar with each other gradually approached, and the breath alone was enough to attract each other.

Yao Nian looked up suddenly, and saw Kaijiang walking at the head of the team.

When the four eyes met, Kaijiang was also shocked, looking at Yao Nian who was wearing a palace maid's clothes, he grabbed the saber uneasily.

The team walked in front of her, Mu Kaijiang didn't wear her, Yao Nian breathed a sigh of relief, and was very unwilling, but now is not the time to entangle these feelings, she came to the palace, originally to "kill" Mu Kaijiang.

Yao Nian turned around a lot, and couldn't find suitable clothes for his father to replace, his father's physique could only match the guards, but she couldn't do anything to the guards.

Moreover, my father had a broken arm, and he had to hide it very carefully, otherwise he would be seen at a glance when he walked on the road.

At the same time, Zhu Rong sneaked back to the Forbidden Army Mansion with his second brother, and found the armor of ordinary guards in the room where he and Kaijiang changed clothes.

"After that, Pingli will cause chaos in the city, and the forbidden army will definitely go out to suppress it." Zhu Rong said, "Right now, Jin Dongsheng is ambushing at the West City Gate with the main force, and the two armies have no chance of winning the confrontation, and the prince wants to capture him alive." Second brother, your task is to support the guards as much as possible, and when there is chaos in the city, you can use the excuse of catching the assassins, and take people north, even if you take one or two with you, as long as they are shaken. ”

Pingrui asked, "What about you?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "I still have to go to the palace, I am in the palace, I am afraid that he will do something stupid." ”

"What about the people in prison?"

"Just now Min Yanshi has already noticed me, and I'll leave it to him here."

The two brothers were about to separate, and Ping Rui said: "If I am killed by Jin Dongsheng, take care of your sister-in-law for me." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Pingli just said that I, regardless of the will, you expect me to take care of your sister-in-law for you?" ”

At this time, there was movement outside the door, shouting that someone was throwing money on the street, and the people were robbing, Zhu Rong patted the second brother on the shoulder: "Brother, we'll see you at home." ”

Ping Rui also patted his younger brother on the shoulder, turned around and went out, blending in to go to the street to town. In the ranks of the forbidden army that oppressed the people.

When Zhu Rong left the Forbidden Military Mansion and was about to turn to the palace, several students of the Guozijian in front of him ran wildly with brooms in their hands, shouting: "You must arrest them back." ”

Zhu Rong laughed in his heart, he calmed that stinky boy, he had long wanted to demolish the Guozijian, and now he got his wish.

There were people in the distance, and the originally dead and silent capital suddenly became lively, Zhu Rong was sure of his heart, and entered the imperial city from the entrance that only he knew.

In the main hall, the emperor soon received an urgent report that there was someone in the capital.

Kaijiang followed, and Dao was already sending people to the town. In addition, he and the other three masters stayed by the emperor's side to escort him at any time.

The queen has already retired, and the crown prince, who did not receive the emperor's uncle, has also returned to the East Palace, only the ministers in the court room outside the palace, and the emperor sitting alone on the dragon chair in the empty hall.

"Message!" Emperor Jiasheng suddenly spoke.

"Yes." Kaijiang hugged his fists in response.

"Order Jin Dongsheng to lead his troops to attack and exterminate the 2,000 Jizhou army." The emperor said coldly, "If he doesn't come, we will kill him and tell Jin Dongsheng that if he doesn't survive, I only need the heads of father and son." ”

Kaijiang received the order, strode out of the palace, and ordered the guards to pass the word out, and at this time, an inner servant came to him and told him that the ministers wanted to withdraw, and they didn't even ask the emperor for an order.

"Go and keep all the ministers of civil and military affairs under your watch, and not let any of them out, lest they collaborate with the enemy." Kaijiang ordered, "Strengthen the guards outside the main hall and transfer everyone over." ”

The guards outside the palace of the concubine were the first to be transferred, and Yao Nian turned around again and returned to his father: "There was an accident outside, the emperor transferred all the manpower to the main hall, and it will be difficult for us to enter again." ”

Prince Katsu said, "But if we want to get out of here, it will be easy." Nian'er, the concubine is in the Buddha hall, you go to beg her or threaten her, and ask her to visit the queen. ”

Yao Nian was stunned at first, but soon understood his father's intentions and immediately turned to leave.

In the Hanyuan Palace, the queen knelt in front of the statue of Guanyin, the cigarette smoke curled on the Buddha shrine, and suddenly, the incense bundle that was burning well was cut off from half.

The palace maid on the side snorted, naturally feeling extremely unlucky, but the queen knew in her heart that it was not the gods and Buddhas who were playing tricks on them.

She re-offered the incense bundle with her own hands, prayed together, and then instructed the palace maid: "Take my court clothes." ”

"Mother?"

"Anyway, I'm going to be decent."

When the queen changed into court clothes and wanted to offer incense to the Bodhisattva, the palace people spread the news that the concubine heard that there was a turmoil in Beijing, and Prince Sheng was injured and did not enter the city, so she was uneasy and came to visit the queen.

The queen read: "What are you making fun of at this time?" ”

But she had to come out and greet the concubine with a smile.

The concubine was still in the warm sedan chair and did not get down, and her palace maid stepped forward with melons and fruits and snacks, and said to the queen: "The concubine is here to bring you some snacks." ”

The queen looked helpless, took a few steps forward and said: "Please also invite the concubine to get off the sedan chair and drink a cup of tea, and the ministers ......."

Before she finished speaking, the palace maid beside the concubine pretended to support her, but put the dagger against her waist, and a slight stinging pain pierced into her clothes, and the queen looked down in horror and recognized it as Yao Nian.

"Aunt Huang, you ordered them to carry the sedan chair to the main hall, the concubine Niangniang is very worried about Uncle Huang." Yao said in a young voice, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

The queen closed her eyes in despair, opened them again, and ordered: "Carry the sedan chair to the main hall, and the concubine and I will go to visit the emperor." ”

Hanyuan Hall is connected to the main hall, on weekdays, only the queen will walk this road, and the outside of Hanyuan Hall is also heavily guarded, so naturally this road is negligent.

The concubine's warm sedan chair stopped outside the palace gate, the queen was held hostage by Yao Nian, and personally helped the "concubine" to get off the sedan chair, Prince Sheng was wearing the concubine's windbreaker, but he was tall, how to look at it was very strange, just arrived at the door of the palace, there were guards who came up suspiciously.

"Stand down, what are you going to do?" The queen scolded, and with Yao Nian's "support", she successfully sent people into the palace.

The door of the hall closed, and Yao Nian put the dagger on his aunt's neck: "I'm sorry for you, if the guards break in, I can only threaten your life." ”

"Your fourth brother said that your father was bitten by Zhu Chengqian, didn't he?"

"When I left with my father, Zhu Chengqian had already been tied up by my sister-in-law, and no one was injured."

"But he ...... with his own eyes," the queen smiled helplessly, "you lied to him, and you don't believe me?" ”

Prince Katsu walked up to the main hall alone, and in the emperor's consternation, he took the snow hat and windbreaker.

This is a place he is familiar with, he has come again and again, to accept the praise of his father, he is the most glorious and honorable prince under the knee of the first emperor, and the crown prince at that time, can only stand aside and be gloomy.

The envoys of foreign countries often mistake him for the prince, completely ignorant of the existence of the real prince, he has sent the wrong gift back to the East Palace countless times, and he still remembers the eyes of his brother at that time.

The four masters, including Kaijiang, quickly showed their blades and scolded: "Stop, don't get any closer!" ”

Kaijiang stood on a high place, saw the queen who was held hostage by Yao Nian in the palace gate, and said: "Don't act rashly, the queen is in their hands." ”

The four of them looked at each other, then turned their gaze to the emperor, waiting for his orders.

But Emperor Jiasheng saw his younger brother walking step by step, as if he had encountered a ghost, and the empty sleeves of his coat, as if he was about to wrap around his neck at any time and strangle him to death.

"Your Majesty?"

"Kill him, kill him!" Emperor Jiasheng grabbed the folding inkstone on the table and threw it down like crazy.

In addition to opening up the territory, the three masters jumped down the steps to make a move on Prince Sheng, and suddenly there was a rumbling sound from outside the sky, like summer thunder.

A cold light flashed in Prince Sheng's eyes, and he said coldly: "Brother Huang, this is a signal from your nephew to me, my people have entered the city, Jin Dongsheng has been captured alive, and the forbidden army is also under his control." ”
