Chapter 154: The moon is dark and the wind is high on the night of rebellion
Yin Yue ignored Lu Qian's struggles.
Directly lifted Lu Qian up and tied it to the cylinder on the side
Immediately afterward, two more bells hung in his hands.
But whenever Lu Qian wants to break free, the bell will ring.
Xia Nihuang nodded with satisfaction when she saw that Yin Yue had finished it.
He snorted coldly at Lu Qian and said, "You must be very surprised, how did we know about it! This palace just wants to tell you, don't think that you are the smartest in the world! Take everyone else for fools!"
....
Today's night came a little earlier than usual.
The whole city of Kyoto is particularly quiet tonight.
Xia Wenzhi and the twelve old princes gathered in the palace of Prince Ying, and more than 2,000 personal soldiers outside were also ready to go.
"Why hasn't Chengde come yet? It can't be a problem, right? His old fellow won't be scared temporarily. Hurry up and send someone to urge! Are you going to be a turtle with a shrunken head?" Prince Ying frowned slightly and stood in front of the group and said.
He had been waiting for this day for decades.
Today is ostensibly for the rebellion of Xia Wenzhi.
He was like a mirror in his heart.
As long as the court is stable, what is he saying in this court?
At this moment, a hearty laugh came from outside the door.
"Xia Wanying, I heard you scolding me from afar! In my life, I don't know how to write the words I am afraid of? "Chengde walked over from one side.
Beside him was the black-clad shadow leader he had seen in the shadow camp earlier.
"Haha, Cheng Guogong! Isn't this king afraid of a bad pool? I can't do this without you today!" Prince Ying said with a haha.
After speaking, Prince Ying looked at Xia Wenzhi on the side and said, "Your Highness, have all the people from the Huo family gone?"
"Concubine Hua used the family banquet as an excuse to hand over all the people of the Huo family to the palace! My father is also in Jingyang Palace!" Xia Wenzhi nodded and said.
"Without further ado, then... We can go. Bloodbath Jingyang Palace tonight!" Prince Ying said with a gloomy face.
All the princes showed excited looks.
They all know that after tonight, they are all heroes of the new dynasty!
In the darkness of the night.
Two thousand personal soldiers, as well as five thousand shadow troops, marched in unison towards the Taihe Gate.
Prince Ying sent two of his own soldiers to explore the road first.
After a while, the soldiers came back and said to Prince Ying, "There is only a garrison of four people, and there are no defenders on the city walls."
"Looks like the eunuch is right... Let's go! Now Your Majesty is in danger, let's go to the palace to save the king!"
Prince Ying said as he patted his horse and let the army move forward quickly.
When they arrived at the gate of the Taihe Palace, four men dressed in forbidden army clothes stopped in front of them.
Prince Ying drew his long sword and scolded sharply, "Dog minion, dare to stop this king!" The king was ordered to enter the palace and be rescued by the king. Get out of here, y'all of you! Otherwise, you will be killed!"
"Prince Ying, we've been waiting for a long time!" The first forbidden army arched his hand and said.
Prince Ying was stunned for a moment, thinking that what Lu Qian said was really good! "Hahaha! Good... Good! In that case, why don't you open the door quickly!"
With a wave of the forbidden army's hand, the Taihe Gate was opened.
It's just that there's a carriage parked in front of the door.
"Whose carriage is moving away!" Seeing this, Prince Ying said to the forbidden army.
The forbidden army walked over to the carriage and whispered.
From the carriage came a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
If Lu Qian saw it, he would recognize this person as Lingwei at a glance.
After Lingwei got down from the carriage, she respectfully invited an old woman to come down from the carriage.
The old woman had a childish face and a tall posture, although she was dressed in plain clothes.
But the whole person exudes a momentum that no one can approach.
At first glance, you can see that this old woman is no ordinary person!
Prince Ying and the others scolded impatiently. "You didn't hear that, did you! Ink what? Get out of here! Otherwise the king will cut you down."
"Xia Wanying! I haven't seen you for a few years, but my temper has really increased a lot!" The old woman slowly walked towards Prince Ying with Lingwei's support.
When Prince Ying heard the old woman's voice, he was shocked.
Hurriedly dismounted, three steps and two steps forward.
After seeing the person who is coming.
I only felt a softness under my feet, and I knelt on the ground with a pop!
"The Emperor... Empress dowager... You... You... Why are you here?"
The old woman is none other than the Empress Dowager Wende of Great Xia, the Empress Dowager Dou.
"The mourning family will never come again! One of you counts as one, and your heads are going to move! Got a long time, huh? Learn to rebel!" Empress Dowager Dou said coldly.
"Brother don't dare! It's just that Your Majesty is really deceiving people too much, listening to the words of the ministers, and wants to cut our prince... Queen Mother, you should act as if you don't know anything, let me wait in and eradicate the female cadre!"
As he spoke, several other princes ran over one after another.
In front of the Empress Dowager Dou, she knelt on the ground and asked for peace.
"Hmph, you guys have dog brains. Not bad at all! How did Xia Jiuyuan's throne come about, don't you all know? He won the throne by rebellion! How easily can he let others rebel against him? Don't you see there's something greasy in this? I'm afraid he's waiting for you to rebel now, and he's all looking forward to it!" Empress Dowager Dou said sharply
"Queen Mother, what do you mean... Is this a trap? Can't be... Look..."
"Hmph, dog brain! If you believe in the mourning family, let your own soldiers go back, and you will follow the mourning family to ask your majesty for your guilt! If you do not believe, go in with your troops. Tomorrow will just behead you all over the place!" Empress Dowager Dou interrupted coldly
Prince Ying's face was instantly difficult to see.
He naturally knew the methods of the Empress Dowager Dou no better.
He knew very well that even if Empress Dowager Dou harmed Xia Jiuyuan, she would not harm them!
"Queen Mother, we all listen to you... Listen to you..."
The other princes also nodded in agreement at this time, and asked those soldiers who had not entered the Taihe Gate to go back one after another.
"Cheng Guogong, if you are a rebel, you are indispensable! The mourning family knows that you are doing this for a reason, and they don't want to pursue you! Go back now, and the mourners will not see you." Empress Dowager Dou followed and said to Chengde.
Chengde glanced at the Empress Dowager Dou and said, "Thank you, Empress Dowager Dou!"
With that, he left with his shadow guard.
After the soldiers left, the Taihe Gate, which was originally very lively, instantly seemed very deserted.
Xia Wenzhi, who was hiding on the side, saw the Empress Dowager Dou staring at him, took a step forward, knelt on the ground with weak legs, and said tremblingly, "The emperor grandson asks the queen mother for peace..."
Empress Dowager Dou snorted coldly and ignored him.
So saying, he got into the carriage and let them follow!
...
In Jingyang Palace, Xia Jiuyuan drank a lot, and he was not afraid at all.
Because Zhang Bao came to report just now, they had already laid a net outside Jingyang Palace.
At this time, Father-in-law Wei trotted in all the way with a panicked face.
When he entered the door due to nervousness, he also fell on a big horse.
Before he could speak, Xia Jiuyuan got up with excitement on his face and asked, "Did that group of traitors attack?"
The best emperor
