Chapter 266: Take down the rebellious
Qing Guifei stood up, took a deep breath, and said absolutely, "Then let's start." ”
One after another, the oracles came out of the Chengming Temple.
The Holy Lord summoned the prince to meet ......
The saint summoned the king of Beining and the marquis of Qingyuan to meet him......
The Holy One summoned the left and right ministers to the ......
The Holy Lord summoned the Imperial Doctor to meet him......
In addition, there were also various ministries and temples that were summoned...... It can be said that all the important ministers of the DPRK and China have received the holy decree.
The capital, which had been calm due to the arrival of night, woke up again, and the vehicles and horses galloped away in the direction of the palace from all directions.
The red walls and golden tiles, the majestic and magnificent palace are still as imposing, but the atmosphere today is different from the past. The summoned people arrived one after another, but they were all led to the Jinluan Palace.
In the Chengming Palace, the crown prince and the king of Jin stood looking at each other.
Zhong Hantao said sharply: "Brother King Jin, what do you mean? ”
"Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about the advisors."
"You are plotting to usurp the throne, and you should be punished for your crimes!"
"You are wrong, it was the crown prince who was eager to ascend the throne and killed the king, and was punished on the spot by this king." Zhong Hanchi's eyes narrowed slightly, "If the crown prince and the imperial brother are aware of current affairs, the imperial brother will leave you a whole corpse." ”
"Brother Huang is so calculating, then I have to thank Brother Huang. The prince also advised the royal brother that it was too late to rein in the precipice, and he should not wait for the failure...... Then it's too late! ”
"Hmph, the prince's words should be left to the ground!"
Prince Zhong Hantao showed a hint of sarcasm on his lips, and snorted coldly: "Do you think you will succeed?" ”
"What are you talking about with him, don't do it yet!" Concubine Qing on the side of the dragon couch said coldly.
Before the words fell, several guards rushed in from outside the hall, and King Jin also drew the sword at his waist.
Just as the guards surrounded the prince, several men in black descended from the sky, protected the prince in the middle, and fought with the guards. Then the sound of weapons colliding inside and outside the hall sounded one after another.
Zhong Hanchi, the king of Jin, was stunned for a moment, seven of the twelve Golden Tiger Guard commanders had been under his command, and the remaining five were either killed or imprisoned, and the guards in the palace were replaced by his people, where did these people come from now? How did you get into the palace?
It's a pity that now is not the time to think about this, when he rushed outside the hall, there was already a scuffle in front of the Chengming Palace.
The important ministers in the Jinluan Palace waited for a long time and did not see the emperor summoning them, and asked the palace people on duty, but the palace people said that they didn't know, and they wanted to go out to have a look, but they were stopped by the guards at the door. At this point, I still don't understand what happened, where the emperor summoned them, and it was clear that they were trapped here under house arrest.
Everyone looked at each other, and the important ministers of the court and the central government all gathered here, but they did not see the Jin Wang Party headed by Xiao Wentong, the right minister, and so on. What will happen next is self-evident, and they will face either being forced to defect or die allegiance. Some people transferred their families out of the capital as early as the beginning of the emperor's serious illness, and they were not panicked at the moment, while others were worried about the safety of their families and regretted not arranging the affairs of the palace. It's not that I didn't think of this possibility before, but I didn't expect things to come so quickly.
Except for a few of these people, most of them are civil ministers, and it will definitely not work if they want to break through, but they are unwilling to sit back and wait, and they have set their sights on Murong Jingzhong, the king of Beining.
"What does the prince think?" Finally, someone couldn't hold their breath and asked the question.
Murong Jingzhong glanced at everyone, and only spit out one word: "Wait." "Since the prince has said so, then we can only wait and see.
The battle in front of the Chengming Hall became more and more intense, and gradually had a tendency to expand. King Jin thought that he had the chance to win, but he didn't want so many people in the palace to be inexplicable. Although they are all wearing guard uniforms, it is not difficult to see from their skills that these people are all in the army, and the number of people is higher than that of the guards.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in the crowd, and King Jin couldn't help gritting his teeth, that person was the person he hated the most in this world except for the crown prince - Murong Chu.
The battle became clearer. A military general who was guarding King Jin persuaded him: "Lord Wang, let's go first." ”
King Jin didn't know that if he continued to spend here, there would be no result, so he had to retreat to the Chengming Palace: "Take the mother concubine with you." ”
When the killing arrived in the hall, King Jin couldn't help but be stunned, there were several corpses lying on the ground, but the situation was obviously controlled by the other party, there was a person kneeling on the side of the dragon couch, and when he heard the voice, he turned his head, it was actually Zhong Hanmiao, the seventh prince. Concubine Qing was still sitting on the edge of the dragon couch, her face was white without a trace of blood. The most terrifying thing is that the emperor, who is half leaning on the dragon couch, is staring at him tightly, although his crooked mouth is still salivating, his eyes are full of cautious cold light.
"Brother Huang, stop it......" Zhong Han said in a dumb voice.
"Shut up, you rebel!" Concubine Qing Guifei roared violently, "Chi'er, go away!" ”
"Mother concubine......" King Jin frowned, at this time he didn't understand where the emperor who had been killed by the soul snatching was actually awake, and his own brother had already defected.
"Leave the concubine alone, go quickly, remember what you have to do!" Qing Guifei shouted again.
The emperor raised his hand weakly and closed his eyes. The prince immediately commanded: "Take down the rebels!" ”
King Jin fought and retreated under the arch guard of the master beside him, and when he retreated to the door, he couldn't help but glance in the direction of Qing Guifei, who was sweating for her son at this time, and saw him hesitating, knowing that his son was worried about himself, he shouted: "Chi'er don't care about me, go quickly!" Remember to avenge your mother! With that, he suddenly pulled off the hairpin on his head and stabbed it around his neck.
"Mother!" The two voices sounded at the same time, and it was too late for Zhong Hanmiao, the seventh prince who was kneeling on the ground, to rush over, and the hairpin in Qing Guifei's hand had already pierced half of it, and blood slid down her white neck onto her luxurious dress. Zhong Hanmiao only had time to catch his mother, who was paralyzed, but he couldn't stop the blood from gushing out.
King Jin knew that it was irretrievable, so he simply gritted his teeth and turned around and killed the Chengming Palace.
"Qing'er, why are you doing this?" The emperor on the dragon couch sighed lightly and said inarticulately, "I ask myself if I treat you well, why are you so ruthless?" ”
Concubine Qing, who was dying in the arms of the Seventh Prince, showed a wry smile: "Am I ruthless? You gave what I wanted most to other women and her children, were you ruthless or am I ruthless? If...... There is an afterlife, and I would rather be a ...... Don't be a poor woman...... Marry into the family of the emperor ......"
"Mother...... Imperial Doctor, Hurry up and announce Imperial Doctor! The Seventh Prince tried to plug the wound on her neck with his hands, but blood still ran down his fingers. He had forgotten that there was a scuffle in the palace at this time, where could he announce the imperial doctor, but he still shouted hoarsely.
"Miao'er...... It's good to do it yourself......" Qing Guifei's voice became weaker and weaker, until finally her head tilted to the side and she was silent.
The concubine who had been favored by the emperor all her life died like this.
The front of the Chengming Palace has gradually quieted down, and the entire palace is controlled by Murong Chu and the crown prince, but the situation is not optimistic.
