The palace occupies a small half of the city in the southeast of Xiangyang City, with high walls and deep ditches and strong barriers.

If it is forcibly attacked, it is no different from attacking a city.

But no one expected that Cao Bin would take advantage of the time when King Xiangyang was out and rushed over directly.

The reason is also very sufficient, as if it really wants to protect the Xiangyang Palace.

The guards of the Xiangyang Royal Mansion hesitated for a moment.

They hesitated, Cao Bin wouldn't, with Qiong Ying's cooperation, he directly led people to rush into the gate of Xiangyang Palace, and didn't give them time to think at all.

Mr. Shen was slapped to the ground by Cao Bin, and was about to get up and shout, but was seen by Yang Zhi, who was following Cao Bin.

Without any hesitation, he chopped off his head with a knife, and said with a "phew":

"You dare to threaten Uncle? Die to you. ”

Cao Bin didn't stop at all, and went straight to the skyscraper.

Lin Chong behind him had already begun to lead people to disarm the palace guards.

At this point, there is no need to cower, so everyone is murderous and does not hesitate at all.

"Uncle Cao, there is only one way to the backyard......."

Qiong Ying pointed to the slender corridor in front of her and said.

It's just that at this time, the top of the wall on the left and right sides of the corridor is already full of guards, and the prince Shi poked out his head and said:

"Cao Bin, do you dare to take advantage of the prince's outing, attack the palace, and want to rebel?"

Cao Bin smiled:

"I think you misunderstood, Ben Jue heard that a group of people from the rivers and lakes wanted to attack the palace and came to protect the palace."

"Why don't you get out of the way, and let me go to see the princess? I, as a son-in-law, have not seen the princess. ”

Qiong Ying held the green dragon halberd in his hand and said, "Why don't you get out of the way?" ”

The governor of the palace Shi "bah" and said:

"It's just a cheap maid, a plaything raised by the prince, what qualifications does he have to claim to be the prince's child?"

"Do you think that when the prince goes out, there will be no care for you? The princess is here, and she will not retreat! ”

As he spoke, he helped out a noble woman with a beaded hair.

Although Qiong Ying had a grudge against the king of Xiangyang, her face was also very ugly when she heard this.

The princess said with a worried face: "Qiong Ying, what are you doing, you really want to attack the palace?" ”

Seeing Cao Bin looking at herself, Qiong Ying hesitated for a moment, and had to speak:

"Princess, there is indeed a group of people in the rivers and lakes who want to attack the palace, and Qiong Ying specially invited Uncle Zhongjing to protect the palace."

The palace chief Shi couldn't help but say angrily: "Don't believe them, princess, Cao Bin is not our person......."

Cao Bin saw that he couldn't stop talking, so he directly took a hard bow and shot over.

The prince Shi Ben wanted to dodge, but he was choked by an arrow in his throat, fell to the ground, and was out of breath.

The princess was suddenly frightened, screamed, and almost fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the rest of the guards also rushed down the wall, not daring to show their bodies.

With a distance of more than 100 steps, one shot hit the target, which scared them a lot.

Even Lu Zhishen and Wu Song looked at Cao Bin in surprise, thinking that he was just a subordinate, but they didn't expect that they would have such a stunt.

Cao Bin shouted:

"Princess, let the palace guards get out of the way, otherwise Cao will order the soldiers to attack."

"When the time comes, I won't be responsible for hurting you......

After a long time, the princess walked out of the corridor, barely calmed down, and asked:

"Uncle Zhongjing, are you here to deal with my lord?"

Cao Bin resolutely will not admit his purpose, and when the time comes, even if he does not find other evidence of the rebellion of King Xiangyang, it is a bit of a possibility.

So he smiled very kindly:

"How so? I am the son-in-law of the prince, how can I deal with the king of Xiangyang? ”

"When you say that you protect the palace, you protect the palace."

The princess was noncommittal, waved her hand and said:

"Now that Uncle Zhongjing has made up his mind, I am a weak woman and cannot be stopped."

"I only hope that Zhongjing Bonian will say a few good words in front of the official family in terms of the prince's affection for raising Qiongying, after all, he and the official family are relatives and blood."

Immediately after, one by one, the palace guards came out and handed over their weapons.

There were only three or four hundred of them in total, and even if they tried their best to stop Cao Bin, it would be impossible to stop him, and they could only cause him some trouble.

Cao Bin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Next, you need the cooperation of the princess, this is called meritorious atonement!" Cao will try his best to speak well for the prince. ”

The princess knew that the general trend was gone, so she didn't dare not agree, so she had to nod and say, "I listen to Uncle Zhongjing." ”

After a while, they had arrived at the courtyard where the Chongxiao Tower was located.

I saw that the tower was made of wood and stone, tall and sturdy, like a small city.

As soon as everyone arrived in front of the Chongxiao Tower, they saw three or four hundred soldiers blocking the way.

Seeing Cao Bin looking at herself, the princess stepped forward very consciously and said, "You wait to get out of the way and let Uncle Zhongjing take people in." ”

The leader of the soldiers shook his head and said: "The princess is not strange, unless the prince has a written warrant, no one is allowed to enter the Chongxiao Tower......."

Before he could finish speaking, countless arrows had already flown over, only to hear a chaotic sound of "poof", and countless soldiers had already fallen to the ground.

Seeing this, the remaining soldiers hurriedly retreated to the building.

The princess was so frightened that her legs and feet were weak, and she almost fell to the ground, and she couldn't bear to say:

"Why don't Zhong Jingbo wait? Maybe I can convince them. ”

Cao Bin ignored her, turned around and said, "Go and find the headquarters in the building!" ”

Hearing Cao Bin's order, Xia Laodao said solemnly: "Uncle, rest assured, Lao Dao has already made a lot of preparations......

At this time, Xiangyang City poured into two or three hundred people from the rivers and lakes, and more than a dozen of them were famous knights, and they had one or two stunts.

In the restaurant, Yan Chasan was pretending to be an ordinary scholar and watching Jiang Ping lay out a detailed plan.

A young man suddenly ran in out of breath and said:

"Lord Yan, Fourth Uncle, Uncle Zhongjing has taken control of the Xiangyang Palace, and is now cracking the Chongxiao Tower organ."

Jiang Ping's face changed and said, "It's not good, Uncle Zhongjing is ahead of us." ”

Yan Chasan's face also turned unsightly.

I and the others have been busy for so long, and I saw that I was picking up the final credit, but I didn't expect to be caught in front by Cao Bin.

If the credit is snatched away by Cao Bin, he will have no way to explain to these heroes.

Although they came nominally for the friendship of the three heroes and five righteousness, they were still for the reward of the imperial court.

At least leave a way out for your children and grandchildren.

There are also people who come to help out of righteousness, but there are not many of them.

He got up abruptly and said, "Let's go, let's go see Cao Bin, we must participate in cracking Chongxiao Tower!" ”

Jiang Ping stopped him and said:

"The garrison of Xiangyang is back in the hands of Zhao Jue, he himself has not been captured, and it is too reckless for Zhongjing Bo to act with great confidence."

"Besides, Crouching Tiger Ditch is not safe there, once it breaks out, it will be a catastrophe......

Yan Chasan interrupted:

"I can't take care of so much, my official position is not enough, I can't control Xiangyang, I can only watch him mess up."

"I wanted to visit Cao Bin tonight, since he doesn't cooperate with us, even if it's his responsibility......"
