Chapter 117: There is a hole in the ground, but there is no door to the sky
Squeak~
The gate of Hongqing Palace slowly opened.
Zhu Jianji pressed the sword and entered, the back of the door was extremely quiet, and he couldn't hear a sound, something was wrong, there were slaves and maids waiting for the Baozong in Hongqing Palace, it was impossible to be so quiet.
The secret path is not good, waving his hand, "Search!" ”
But there was no one in the palace!
Zhu Xiang shouted in the dormitory: "Your Highness, there is a hole in the ground here!" ”
Zhu Jianji sighed helplessly.
Really.
When Hao Yi said that there were cracks in the outer wall of the imperial city, he should have thought that the cracks on the wall were due to changes in the underground structure.
Someone is digging a hole in the ground!
The gate of Hongqing Palace is closed on weekdays, and what happens inside cannot be detected by the guards outside, so digging a tunnel to enter is the only way to quietly bring Baozong out of the palace.
I'm a little confused, though.
The mastermind behind the scenes has every chance to quietly take away the Bao Sect, why did he go to the Qianqing Palace to assassinate the cheap father, did he want to divert his attention, or was he greedy, hoping to kill two birds with one stone?
Not to mention, if there was no Jinyi Wei who sensed the abnormality in advance, even if the assassination was unsuccessful, he would still be able to take the Baozong, after all, the Son of Heaven was assassinated in the Qianqing Palace, and the entire imperial city's forces would focus on the security of the Qianqing Palace.
But the mastermind behind the scenes is too self-righteous, I really think that Lao Tzu, the prince, is a decoration, and I really think that the eyes and ears of Jinyiwei are dry food, I'm afraid he can't dream that our father and son are "father and son filial piety".
Lao Zhu was assassinated, and he did not go to the Qianqing Palace for the first time, but arranged people to target the Baozong.
Lao Zhu's safety, why worry about it.
Now it's not Jingtai eight years ago, if he didn't control Teng Xiang Wu Xiang Siwei before the change of seizing the door, Zhu Jianji really had to go to the Qianqing Palace as soon as possible, but now that Teng Xiang Wu Siwei is in hand, who can kill Lao Zhu in Da Nei?
Looking at the swarthy entrance of the cave, Zhu Jianji did not hesitate at all, and waved his hand, "Chase!" ”
Dai Yi was anxious, "Your Highness, I don't know if there are assassins and traps inside, you just go to Nanxunfang from the city gate, and the slaves and Zhao Mu and others chase after them from the cave." ”
Zhu Jianji shook his head, "There's no need, it's too late for them to escape, how can they be in the mood to arrange people to guard the hole in the ground." ”
It must be caught up as soon as possible.
Zhu Jianji suddenly grinned, this is the best opportunity to kill the Castle Sect!
……
……
Nanxun Fang.
Zhu Qizhen led Queen Qian to climb out of the cave, it was in the backyard rockery of Xu Bin's mansion, Zhou Lu, the deputy envoy of the Huitong Pavilion, was already waiting at the entrance of the cave, so he wanted to kneel down and salute, but was stopped by Zhu Qizhen, "Time is urgent, the Qing family doesn't have to be polite, wait for him to be in the court, and you and I will talk about today's feelings." ”
Escape matters.
The ghost knows if Zhu Qiyu will go to him for a drink at this time, and if he is discovered, his efforts will be wasted.
Zhou Lu is happy.
Listening to Zhu Qizhen's meaning, he will be ranked in the court class in the future.
This is the treatment that only four- or five-grade officials have.
Straightened up and said: "The carriage and horses and civilian clothes have been prepared, the road guide has already been done, there are still more than 30 horsemen outside the city to respond, after leaving Beijing, more than 30 horsemen will be divided into two teams, one team disguised as His Majesty to go south, one team to escort His Majesty to the north, now the troops in the north are attracted by Jianzhou Li Manzhu, we can take advantage of the situation to go to the sea, unexpectedly from the sea to the south." ”
On the southern side, as long as Zhu Qizhen arrives, he can take advantage of the situation to raise the banner and establish the imperial court, but everyone knows that Zhu Qizhen is likely to be a puppet emperor.
Zhu Qizhen glanced back at Xu Bin, "The Qing family has made careful arrangements, and I am very relieved." ”
Xu Bin smiled and didn't speak.
Thoughtful fart.
He was only responsible for digging a hole in the ground, and it took nine years to dig under the Hongqing Palace, and fortunately he was promoted quickly in the past nine years, and the maids and servants of the Shilang's mansion entered and left the city frequently, so he could use various excuses to transport the earthwork away without attracting the attention of Jinyiwei.
The lotus ponds in the courtyard, which were originally six or seven feet deep, are now only half a foot deep.
Fortunately, no one doubted it.
Zhu Qizhen said: "Let's go." ”
Zhou Lu led the way, Xu Bin glanced back at the rockery, and didn't care about the hole.
At this moment, the palace must be busy in the Qianqing Palace, and the abnormality of Hongqing Palace will not be exposed for the time being, and when the palace finds that the emperor is gone, he and others have already left the imperial city.
This hole is not filled, and it is the greatest irony to His Majesty and the Crown Prince to keep it!
What if I return to Beijing in the future?
This hole is the greatest feat on His Majesty's side!
Moreover, there is no one around at the moment.
In order to meet the emperor, the servants in the palace have already been sent to the front yard, and it is strictly forbidden to step into the backyard.
When Zhu Qizhen and Queen Qian changed their clothes, Xu Bin, Zhou Lu, Zhu Qizhen and Queen Qian got into a car.
Unexpectedly......
Suddenly there was thunderous footsteps in the distance.
Before the carriage moved, I saw a group of Teng Xiang Wu and the four guards rushing to the streets and alleys.
Nanxunfang has been sealed!
Xu Bin's heart jumped.
The situation is not right.
Even if it was because of Yu Qian's assassination, if Nanxunfang was to be searched, it should be Jinyiwei or other pro-army twenty-six guards, why Tengxiang Wuxiang four guards?
Shouldn't they be in the palace, could it be that the Hongqing Palace was discovered.
His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reacted so quickly?
Xu Bin had a bad premonition in his heart, but he had no choice.
It's all or nothing.
Xu Bin took a deep breath and whispered to Zhu Qizhen: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is no way back now, even if they search, it doesn't matter, the ordinary soldiers have never seen the holy face at all, Weichen, as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, wants to leave Nanxunfang, who dares to stop it." ”
Fangkou, heavily blocked, led by the eunuch Hao Yi, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor's palm seal, was riding on a restless war horse at the moment, pacing back and forth with the long sword at his waist, staring coldly at the alley.
I feel uneasy.
Worried that it would be too late to send troops.
If there is really a hole leading to Hongqing Palace, the emperor may have left Beijing.
But I can't say for sure.
After all, digging a tunnel from Nanxunfang to Hongqing Palace is not a small project, and it is not a matter of three or five years to do it unknowingly under the nose of Jinyiwei.
When the temple was completed, on the day of the emperor's death, the Ministry of Rites had just agreed on the list, and within a day or two, those faint monarchs would be listed in the vegetable temple.
If they don't rob the emperor again, they will have no chance.
So as soon as the tunnel was dug through, I couldn't wait to shoot.
In other words, the tunnel was dug today!
That's just in time.
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a carriage coming from the far side of the alley, it seemed that it was going out of Nanxunfang, Hao Yi smiled, he had ordered all the mansions to close, but some people wanted to go out......
Well done!
Quietly, after all, there may be the emperor in the carriage, as a Ming courtier, Hao Yi knows that the Son of Heaven can kill the emperor, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can also kill him, but he can't kill it.
You even have to keep the etiquette.
The authority of the Heavenly Imperial Family must not be offended.
As the carriage approached, Xu Bin, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, poked his head out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Eunuch Hao, are you searching for the assassin who assassinated Yu Shaobao, please also quickly search the carriage and horse, and go to Xiannongtan to prepare for spring ploughing at the holy decree of His Majesty." ”
The Ministry of Rites was already in charge of the rituals.
Hao Yi was surprised.
It turned out to be Xu Bin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
Immediately, I suddenly remembered that Xu Bin was also one of the people who had sent Yang Shan to send Wara back to the emperor.
No wonder......
Snorted coldly, and said with a smile: "By the will of the prince, no one is allowed to enter and leave Nanxun Fang!" ”
Xu Bin was anxious: "This servant is in the holy order, who dares to stop me!" ”
