Chapter XVII: Encirclement and Suppression of the Metropolitan Government

At this point, even if he wants to kill the heavens and the earth, she can only draw her sword and follow him. ( .)

She silently clenched the soft sword, and through the scabbard, it seemed that a bone-chilling chill still came from the palm of her hand.

This sword has been with her to this day, and it has also drunk blood with a frost blade, saving her life in danger, and can also take her life in an instant.

She had prepared for the worst, and if the palace was defeated, she would rather kill herself with her sword and burn the jade.

The car stopped in front of the Totong Palace.

"Commander Ling, let's do it." Leng Yue looked up at the gate of the Metropolitan Mansion and said lightly.

The Praetorian Guards rushed into the unsuspecting capital, searched and arrested the upper and lower levels of the palace, and killed anyone who resisted on the spot. In less than an hour of incense, Mrs. Mu, who was about to be seventy years old, was locked up with her young daughter and escorted to her car.

"Where is Mrs. Mu?" Leng Yue looked around at the old and young women and children who were crying in fear, but Zizhu was the only one who couldn't see it.

"The subordinates searched all the rooms in the mansion, but they didn't see Mrs. Mu." A janissary bowed back.

Zizhu should not be absent from the house early in the morning.

Leng Yue frowned, glanced at Ling Chao, Ling Chao turned his head and said coldly to the deputy general, "Send these two maidservants to find them, and if you can't find anyone again, you will kill these two for her." ”

The two delicate maidservants suddenly screamed and cried, and the woman in green fell to her knees, pointing to an old man who was kneeling on the ground and cried, "Last night, the steward took the lady away, we didn't know it, my lord spared my life!" ”

The adjutant general choked and drew his knife against the old man's neck, "Say, where is Mrs. Mu now?" ”

The old man in brocade fell to his knees, his body like a sifting chaff, "Husband...... Madam, locked in the study by the master...... In the secret room. ”

Ling Chao immediately asked the old man to lead the way, and after a while, a woman with unkempt sideburns came out of the door.

"Zizhu!" Leng Yue blurted out and exclaimed, looking at it intently, this haggard woman with unkempt hair and defiled clothes, her cheeks were high and swollen, and her eyes were red and swollen.

Her body weakened, she knelt down in front of Leng Yue, and raised her head tremblingly: "Did he still do it?" ”

Zizhu laughed miserably, suddenly knelt down to her, and kowtowed heavily: "He made a mistake in a moment of confusion, it's none of the child's business!" Concubine Niangniang, please let the child go, Zizhu is willing to pay for his life and suffer for him! Read the book "I just beg you to spare him and spare the child!" ”

Her forehead hit the bluestone ground with a bang, and the guards on the left and right lifted her away, but she still struggled endlessly, shouting: "Concubine Niangniang, please be gracious-"

Ling Chao stepped forward, turned his palm into a blade, and cut it at the side of her neck. Zizhu rolled his eyes, fell silently, and fell unconscious.

"Mrs. Mu is only temporarily unconscious." Ling Chao turned to her expressionlessly, "How to deal with a criminal offender, please show the concubine." ”

Leng Yue was silent, slowly scanning the faces in front of her, with a thousand words in her heart, endless pain, she secretly clenched her fists, and turned around ruthlessly: "Take them all!" ”

Behind him, the old and the young were crying and screaming, all blocked out by the closed curtains.

Leng Yue sat motionless in the car, clenching the soft sword hard, cold and sticky sweat oozing from his palm.

She and Ling Chao rushed to the palace gate, where five thousand forbidden troops were already waiting.

An hour had passed, and Leng Yue looked up at the sky, afraid that Mu Feng had also arrived at the camp in the eastern suburbs.

"Close the palace gate, light the beacon smoke, and sound the gold to warn." Ling Chao categorically ordered to go down.

The heavy palace gate slammed shut, and the huge golden bridge over the moat and river slowly rose.

The low horn sounded, the palace gates fell heavy locks, the swords of the forbidden army guards with bright armor were unsheathed, and the bright yellow flag fluttered high above the imperial city.

A column of cyan smoke rose from the highest platform in the palace and soared into the sky.

This is the smoke news of the warning in the palace, and the garrisons around Gyeonggi will receive an edict to enter Beijing once they see the beacon smoke.

She ordered someone to inspect the water and food weapons in the palace, except for the limited arrows of the forbidden army, there should be enough water and food, and it is not a problem to hold on for half a month.

All palaces and palaces were banned, and palace attendants were never summoned to enter and leave without permission to prevent chaos.

As soon as the deployment was thorough, Leng Yue climbed the city tower and looked at the direction of the eastern suburbs, but there was no smoke and dust rising from the east for a long time.

Ling Chao smiled coldly behind her: "It seems that Mu Feng is not so easy to get his hands on. ”

Leng Yue smiled, yes, if he successfully took over the garrison in the eastern suburbs and led the army back to the city, at this moment, the eastern sky should have seen the dust and fog of ten thousand horses. Now more than an hour has passed, and there is no sign of the garrison pulling out, thinking that the commander of the garrison has seen her smoke news, knowing that the dragon and phoenix seal are suspicious, and refuses to obey orders.

"Commander Ling, today you and all the soldiers sacrificed their lives to accompany me, Leng Yue is very grateful." She turned her head sideways and smiled at Ling Chao calmly. Ling Chao is Ling Tian's younger brother, although he has no blood, but Leng Yue handed over the forbidden army to him after seeing his ability, she owes Ling Tian no more, she knows that it is a bit risky to do so, and it will not compensate for anything at all. But she did it anyway, at least to make her feel better.

Ling Chao's eyes were still cold and expressionless, and he said in a low voice: "Concubine Niangniang, sister-in-law asked the minister to tell you that she will always be by your side." ”

She was shocked, and looked straight into his eyes, Shui Ling didn't hate her? Still have to be by her side, this stupid girl......

In the Huiyue Palace, Zizhu had already woken up and was brought to Leng Yue. The palace people have waited for her to freshen up neatly, the royal blue palace dress, the plump bun is low, but the description is more and more haggard, the face is sallow and dull like the full moon on weekdays, the redness and swelling of the left cheek have not faded, and the bruises are still there.

She walked up to her in a trance, and knelt on her knees, her eyes red before she spoke.

Leng Yue waved her hand to let the left and right withdraw, leaving her alone with the two of them.

"Get up, you don't have to kneel to me." Leng Yue sat on the chair, pursed her lips, and couldn't bear the sadness in her heart.

Zizhu didn't hear it, and still knelt with his head bowed.

"How has he treated you all these years?"

Zizhu was stunned for a long time, his eyes were red, and he nodded slightly, but tears splashed down the jade bricks.

She sighed and reached out to stroke the redness of her cheeks, "At this point, you are still protecting him?" It's up to you to choose which side to take. Leng Yue sat still, took away her soft expression, and looked at her coldly, "If you decide to be my enemy, take out the appearance of Mrs. Mu!" ”

Zizhu bit her lip and said nothing, tears were clearly rolling in her eyes, and she finally raised her head stubbornly.

Leng Yue stopped looking at her, and raised her voice to order Ling Chao to enter.

At the opening of the palace gate, Ling Chao pressed his sword and went straight in: "Concubine Niangniang, Mu Feng took over the two or twenty thousand soldiers and horses of the camp in the eastern suburbs with the dragon and phoenix seal, and ordered the twelve gates of Gyeonggi to be closed, and the whole city was under martial law, and no entry or exit was allowed. ”

Is it only 20,000, Leng Yue slightly pulled the corners of her lips and asked Ling Chao, "What about the other 80,000?" ”

"All of them stood still, watching from the wall." Ling ultrasound is like gold and iron.
