Chapter 448: Outside the Imperial Study
Chapter 448 When the sun sets, it is the time when the gate of Xianyang Palace is closed. When the gate of Xianyang Palace was closed, the entire Xianyang City was also plunged into darkness.
However, today's Xianyang Palace gate is not completely closed. A gap was left that allowed a chariot to drive in.
Through this gap, you can faintly see the street outside the gate, and in the darkness, it is so silent.
Looking up, the starry sky was bright, the moon was lacking, but it illuminated the earth, only those dark corners, the moonlight was difficult to reach.
In the palace, the forbidden army is constantly walking around with torches, but as long as you look at the overall situation, you will find that these forbidden troops seem to be patrolling, but in fact they are quickly assembling in the same place.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the palace, accompanied by the sound of the wheels of the carriage turning. Soon, under the light of torches, chariots drove in from outside the palace gate of Xianyang Palace, there were as many as ten of them, followed by a large number of soldiers in armor.
The old Yingtu also put on armor and was supported by two maids who were also wearing armor to stand on the chariot.
Yingtu looked at Yingtian and Yingyuan and asked, "Is everything going well?" ”
"Ancestor, everything is going well." Ying Yuan said: "Ancestor, Zhou Butong is already hidden in the palace, as long as Yingzheng and the forces around him all appear, Zhou Butong will do it." ”
"Very good, these people on the chariot are all among the best masters of my clan, and today it can be said that my clan has exhausted all its strength, and he will definitely die if he wins the government! Daqin will always be my clan's final say! Yingtu said in high spirits, as if returning to the light.
"As long as the ancestor gives an order! Our army will be able to capture Xianyang Palace in no time! Yingtian and Ying Yuan said at the same time.
"Good! Let's go! Begin! While Yingtu said this, he pinched the buttocks of the two maids, and the two maids snorted and waved the command flag in their hands.
The army of the clan was divided into three routes, guarding the gate of Xianyang Palace all the way, and controlling the forbidden army camp all the way, so as not to cause something to happen to the people and horses left by Yin Changqing and ruin the plan.
All the way, it is directly to the imperial study of the first emperor. At this time, there was no one outside the imperial study, and the eunuchs and guards of the forbidden army who were originally on duty were gone, and the emptiness looked very gloomy.
There is a huge imperial study, but at this time, only one light upstairs is on. Under the candlelight, two people were beside the rows of bookshelves, pushing cups and changing lamps, so they couldn't be idle.
"Li Si, I remember the first time I met you, you were a little soldier in the palace, and later you became Lu Xiang's doorman, and it was Lu Xiang who arranged for you to enter the palace." Li Si drank the wine and nodded, and said: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, at that time, there were capable people outside of Great Qin who wanted to enter Qin as officials, and the first person they came into contact with was Lu Xiang." It was indeed Lu Xiang who arranged for me to enter the palace, so that I could give advice by His Majesty's side. ”
"At first, I didn't take a fancy to you, and I didn't notice you until your Six Kingdoms theory. You said that you came to the palace to give me advice, so how did you feel when you first met me? The First Emperor personally poured wine for Li Si.
Li Si raised his glass with both hands and said, "As soon as I saw Your Majesty, I felt that Your Majesty was the dragon and phoenix among people, and the lord of the world!" ”
"You fart, I saw contempt in the eyes of this old thing, you tell the truth, I want to listen to the truth, and I will forgive you for your innocence."
"Then the minister will tell the truth." Li Si drank again, leaned against the window and said: "When I first saw Your Majesty when I entered the palace, I felt it for the first time, it turned out to be a puppet king, and my heart was half cold all of a sudden. After all, in a country where kings are all puppets, it is difficult to go far, unless it is a male lord like King Qin Zhaoxiang! But I don't look like a male lord like this. ”
"But later, following His Majesty every day, I finally saw it. Your Majesty is more powerful than King Qin Zhaoxiang! Li Si gave a thumbs up and said: "Your Majesty has the strategy and ambition of King Zhaoxiang, and even more force that King Zhaoxiang does not have. At that time, Your Majesty was only so old, I knew that Your Majesty was the male lord that I Li Si was looking for! ”
"Your Majesty, although good talents are rare, this male lord is also hard to find." Li Si arched his hand. The First Emperor smiled: "I remember that I tried my best to make you an official at that time, and the faces of those people were ugly." Li Si said with a smile: "The vassals are officials, it can be said that Your Majesty is resisting, and the first step to take back Your Majesty's rights is the first step, and those people's faces are naturally not good-looking." ”
"Your Majesty doesn't know that after the minister became an official, Lu Xiang drove my family out as soon as possible, and even if there was no official contact, the minister couldn't see Lu Xiang."
"During that time, the minister was often assassinated, and in retrospect, that time was really difficult. Fortunately, Your Majesty, we won, we won! Lees shouted.
"That's right! We won! The First Emperor raised his glass and touched a glass with Li Si. At the same time, the army of the clan was unimpeded all the way and was approaching the imperial study.
After two more corridors and palace gates, you will be outside the imperial study. Passing through the corridor, on the ground in front of the palace gate, there is a long pole.
"Stop!" As soon as Yingtu raised his hand, the clan army immediately stopped.
"Ying Yuan, what's going on?" Yingtu asked. Ying Yuan hurriedly said: "Ancestor, I have personally come here to inspect before, without this pole Changge, could it be that Yingzheng discovered our plan?" ”
"Is there any news from the Dark Guard?" Yingtu looked at Yingtian and asked. Yingtian arched his hand and said, "Ancestor, everything is normal on the side of the dark guard. Yingtu suddenly frowned, and a sense of unease appeared in his heart.
"Ancestor, there is no turning back when you open the bow." Ying Yuan saw that Yingtu was silent, so he reminded Yingtu.
Yingtu took a deep breath, pulled out his sword, and said: "Yingzheng Xiaoer, if you want to use a long shot, you want to scare the old man!" Amusing! Keep moving! ”
"Bang!" Changge was kicked to the ground by Ying Yuan and Yingtian, and then the army continued to advance, and was already able to see the imperial study in the distance.
The army passed through the palace gate, and then set up a military formation in front of the palace gate. Until now, the clan is still cautious.
"It's too quiet, even if I withdraw all the forbidden troops, it can't be so quiet, not even with the eunuchs." Ying Yuan frowned and said.
"Someone! Occupy the high ground! Yingtian reacted quite quickly, and after sensing that something was wrong, he immediately ordered someone to occupy the commanding heights.
Suddenly, the commanding heights around them lit up with firelight, a large number of Great Qin Ruishi stood at the commanding heights with torches, rows of archers in heavy armor and foot soldiers grew at the head of the city, and the archers had already aimed at the army of the clan.
See this scene. Yingtu and the others were shocked, how could there be so many soldiers and horses here. Suddenly, heavy footsteps sounded, and then a heavily armored foot soldier came out from behind the imperial study, and quickly set up a battle formation in front of the imperial study.
A group of eunuchs came out of the army, lit all the lampposts here with the fire folds in their hands, and then quickly retreated.
"Win Yuan Yingtian! What's going on! Yingtu asked as he glared at the two of them. Ying Yuan and Yingtian looked at each other, they had obviously determined that there was no longer a force in Xianyang Palace that could stop the clan army, why did so many heavily armored soldiers suddenly appear!
"Squeak~! Rumble~! Suddenly, the palace gate behind the clan army was closed.
