Chapter 328: The Ultimate Goal
The unknown question confused others, and in the silence, Wu Siying's face was extremely unnatural, and it took a long time before he could speak as usual.
"These issues will be discussed later, and it is important to find someone first."
Bai Qige retracted his gaze and beckoned to Xu Zezhi: "General Xu, you choose a few clever people to go with Uncle Lei to find Ning Gongzi, I and the others will continue to break into the palace as planned, if you find it, you don't have to bring Ning Gongzi to chase us, you can send him to Qiaojiazhai or Yiye Villa." ”
"The last general commands."
Xu Zezhi just wanted to move to choose someone, but Lu Feidu stretched out his arm to stop him, but his eyes glanced at Bai Qige: "We also contribute some manpower, after all, the lack of defense in the rear was caused by my negligence." ”
"Whatever you want." Bai Qige's answer was tasteless, and the expression on his face was even more indifferent.
It's about Ning Xi's drunkenness, she really can't be amiable to Wu Siying and Lu Feidu, and the deeper speculation makes her feel troubled and difficult to settle down.
Right now, I can only pray that I'm drunk and safe.
The imperial capital is a major place in Gyeonggi, Bai Qige as the liberator led the soldiers of Zhaoguo to break into barely reasonable, and the third party of Anling Kingdom is inconvenient to enter, yes, after breaking through the southern city gate, Lu Feidu consciously left 4,000 men and horses outside the city, and handed over the matter of smashing Huanglong to the Hongying Army and Yi Chenjing's private soldiers, and the rest of the people were on call in the city at any time.
The Dayao Palace has the highest wall in Zhongzhou, and the forbidden army in the palace controls powerful crossbows, trebuchets, artillery and other extremely lethal weapons.
Sure enough, the well-trained palace forbidden army gave a quick and powerful counterattack when the siege team launched the first offensive, and in the face of continuous bows and crossbows and cannon rumbling, the red tassel army personally trained by Bai Haocheng, a generation of military gods, was difficult to break through quickly, and the two sides launched a fierce battle at the south gate of the palace.
The artillery used by the forbidden army was cast more than fifty years ago, with average lethality and poor aiming, and the only thing that was high was the sound, and the sound of the cannon reached the Ziyun Palace, as if it was cast around him.
"The south of the city is the most densely populated area for the people, and I don't know how many houses will be destroyed by this cannon, and I can't count how many people will become unjust souls in the ruins.
The green grapes are put in the mouth, and when you bite into them, the sweet and sour juice fills the tongue. Yi Chenxuan frowned slightly, and then stretched out again, as if he liked this level of sourness very much.
"There will inevitably be casualties in the war, although the people are disgusted with the war, they are clear about the situation, whoever provokes the war, who wants to destroy our country, the people will hate whom." The queen is neither humble nor arrogant, and still maintains the grace and nobility of the mother of a country.
Yi Chenxuan chuckled, his gaze shifted from the quiet scenery outside the window to the golden cage in the corner: "For so many years, the queen has believed in illusory justice? If there was heavenly retribution in the world, you would not be a queen at all, and what I am doing now is a righteous act, which is to seek justice for the prince who was persecuted to death back then. ”
"This palace doesn't want to talk to you too much. Bai Qige will definitely be able to attack before reaching the palace, and with the few spineless waste generals under you, she will definitely not be able to stop her, and when the time comes, it will be clear who will win and who will lose, and who will become the king and who will be defeated, and you can only take advantage of this time to laugh twice. ”
As if hearing something ridiculous and interesting, Yi Chenxuan smiled and bent over, waving his hand, and it took a long time to calm down and breathe and speak well.
"Didn't the queen look carefully at the second uncle's expression? The second uncle's expression is telling you that he is not so optimistic. Putting down the large bunch of crystal grapes in his hand, Yi Chenxuan walked to the cage and squatted down, his slightly narrowed eyes flashed a gloomy and cold color, "In the past, when I was the fifth prince, I was widely supported, and nearly half of the ministers in the court were willing to recommend me to the throne, the queen really thinks that my private soldiers are only a few thousand?" To tell you the truth, the three thousand soldiers and horses in the imperial capital are only less than one percent of all my private soldiers, and some of the remaining people went to Zhaoguo to attack the capital Liang Shi, and the other part went to Lingxi County to clean up those mountain bandits in Qiaojiazhai, I want to make Bai Qige have no place in this world, so that she can completely understand what the fate of going against me is! ”
The elegant face was almost distorted when she roared, and the queen was so bold that she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and subconsciously retreated to the edge of the cage, holding the stiff palm of the emperor tightly.
Yi Chenxuan's plan can be said to be extremely bold and unexpected, no matter how much Bai Qige thinks about it, he would never have imagined that Zhaoguo and Qiaojiazhai would be threatened by war at this time, and what is even more terrifying is that Yi Chenxuan actually has the details of the coalition forces against him, what else does he not know? The queen secretly gasped, and the palm that shook the ten fingers of the Emperor became tighter and tighter.
Bai Qige, the woman who has been repeatedly troubled by her and Emperor Yao, is the only hope for Yaoguo at the moment.
The door of the inner hall creaked, and a bright red appeared at the door, and his tone was quite angry: "Why do you still have the leisure to stay here, didn't you tell that kid escaped?" If I hadn't gone to the prison in time, even the prince would have been rescued by him! ”
"What are you arguing about, you will shout when something happens, what are you left to do?" Yi Chenxuan sank his face and said impatiently.
Ruan Yanluo was angry, if it weren't for the fact that Emperor Yao and Empress Zai would have sneered a long time ago, remembering that under Yi Chenxuan's ignorance, Sui Liang and Fu Chu escaped one after another, and couldn't help but snort, slammed the door and left.
"You are a citizen of Zhongzhou, but you colluded with the Monan barbarians, and you have lost royal face." Seeing this, the queen was moved and pretended to be angry.
Yi Chenxuan shrugged his shoulders and paced back to the cage: "It's not collusion, she is also one of my pawns, just like you and Lao Qi." I don't know if the people of Zhongzhou have a betrayal nature in their bones, Jinyan and Qi'er betrayed me one after another, who else can I use without these stupid foreign fools? Anyway, what they want is useless to me, and giving them some is enough to get a bunch of people to wag their tails and beg for mercy. ”
"Yi Chenxuan, what conditions did you promise those barbarians? How can you give away a word?! ”
"When did I say I was going to send them away?" Yi Chen sneered, "It's true that they want land, so I have to be willing to give it away." If I really lose to Bai Qige, then the agreement with the Rouhu Kingdom will naturally be null and void, so the most important thing for the queen to do now is to close her mouth and pray in her heart, wishing Bai Qige to live up to expectations and kill me, so that everything will be complete. ”
The queen's eyes have always been locked on Yi Chenxuan's face, so when Yi Chenxuan said this, the silence that flashed in her expression did not escape the queen's eyes.
What does that silence mean? Is his only remaining conscience or something else? The queen couldn't guess, she only felt that Yi Chenxuan's words could not hear the meaning of waiting for victory, but there was a kind of calm waiting for the end of fate.
This man...... Is it really Yi Chenxuan?
"Why have you gone to such lengths to get this far, but you have been dragging it out?" In a daze and confusion, the queen opened her mouth lowly, but was drowned out by another wave of rumbling cannons outside the palace. Originally wanted to continue to ask, but there was a slight friction in the palm of her hand, and the queen lowered her head in surprise, and saw a flash in the cloudy eyes of the remote emperor.
"How?" lowered his head and leaned against the mouth of the emperor, and he didn't hear any sound for a long time, and when the queen looked up again, Yi Chenxuan was no longer there, and only the door was closed. The queen sighed helplessly, and her tone was quite complaining: "Although he is not biological, he is as puzzling as you, I really don't understand what he wants to do." Now I just hope that Bai Qige can successfully break through the blockade and rush to save people, and I don't know how Jing'er is doing, and whether she can hold on until Bai Qige-"
There was another rubbing of the palm, and the queen stopped talking and frowned at Emperor Yao, and was stunned.
If he is as iron-clad as he is, will he shed tears? For whom are these tears for?
"Save ...... Xuan'er ......" exhaled a hoarse voice with all his strength, Emperor Yao pinched the queen's palm, closed his eyes, and let the tears in the corners of his eyes be hot.
The queen wasn't sure if she had heard it wrong, Yi Chenxuan launched a palace mutiny to imprison her brother and father, why did such a rebellious person want to save him? He has a river of blood on his hands, and countless sins on his back, and how many people will die without turning a blind eye? This father and son, who have a deep blood feud, are really crazy.
The Purple Cloud Palace lost its tranquility amid the sound of cannons, and the Heavenly Prison was no exception, and the smell of gunsmoke entered the cells through the long, dark corridors and into the ears of the sleeping people.
"Is there a fight...... Yi Chenjing opened her eyes, and a bitter smile hung on the corner of her lips, "She's still ...... Here it ......."
In the dark corner outside the cell, the little jailer curled up in a ball with his knees in his hands, staring blankly at the body of the old jailer not far away who was being devoured by a group of snakes, and couldn't stop shivering. There are only two living people left in the prison, he and Yi Chenjing, the fear is indescribable but real, hearing Yi Chenjing speak, the little jailer seems to see a little light in despair, and crawls to the iron fence of the cell.
"Snake, snake! Snakes eat people! ”
"Of course snakes eat people, and if you don't kill it, you can only make food for it." After a short rest, his limbs seemed to have some sensations, and Yi Chenjing tried to move his arms, and there was a sharp tearing pain from the wound on his shoulder. He still remembered seeing Fu Chu before he passed out, it shouldn't have been a dream, but looking at the situation in front of him, Fu Chu, who planned to save him, failed. Coughing and spitting out the blood foam in his mouth, Yi Chenjing tried to talk to the frightened little jailer: "Don't move, the more you move those snakes, the more attention you will pay to you." ”
"Oh, oh......" The little jailer stopped moving according to Yi Chenjing's words, and sure enough, the snakes didn't pay attention to him and concentrated around the old jailer's corpse. Xu was because someone could finally speak, and slowly, the little jailer was no longer so afraid, and tried to talk to Yi Chenjing against the iron fence: "Does the crown prince have a pain on his shoulder?" Shed a lot of blood......"
"It hurts, but it won't hinder my life, Yi Chenxuan doesn't plan to let me die yet." Yi Chenjing smiled bitterly.
"The crown prince and the king of tranquility...... It's obviously a brother......" sighed half emotionally and half in confusion, and the little jailer leaned in the direction of Yi Chenjing again, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Prince, the person who came to save you just now is fine, I let him leave through the side door." ”
