Chapter 437: Palace Change
Two hours ago, just after nightfall, the bell of the bell tower had just passed.
King Huan, who was stationed at the imperial mausoleum, suddenly rushed into the capital with 3,000 spirit guards and 2,000 personal soldiers.
And the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division stationed in the capital did not investigate, so they let people into Beijing.
The 30,000 horses of the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division left 10,000 to defend the city, and 10,000 people rushed directly to the palace, and the remaining 10,000 people rebelled in the city with the soldiers of Jing'an Hou and looted everywhere.
And Jiang He, the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, led 4,000 cronies to join up with 10,000 horses from the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and rushed to the palace together.
At the same time, there were eunuchs and palace maids in the palace who suddenly rebelled and killed people everywhere.
The first to bear the brunt is the Shoukang Palace of the Empress Dowager and the Chuxiu Palace of the Empress Dowager Sheng.
From these two palaces, several four-rank masters flew out and fought against the Vermilion Bird Army guarding the palace gate, killing every step.
Most of the soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Army are sixth-grade and seventh-grade, where are the opponents of these four-grade?
Within a few moments, the Suzaku Army was killed by more than a dozen people.
Hearing the news, the Suzaku Army joined the melee, and when Yinzhu got the news and rushed over, he was not the opponent of Sipin, and he couldn't guard these two palaces, so he hurried to Cining Palace, at least to ensure the safety of the Empress Dowager.
Over there, Bai Yao encountered something more tricky.
The rebellious Imperial Forest Army and the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are working together to attack the South Palace Gate, and under the rain of arrows from the soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Army, those rebels with good armor will not have a great effect at all.
Only stone throws or rolling logs can be used.
When the Suzaku Army's throwing stones and rolling logs were almost used, they found that the rebels of Wuyang had entered the palace at some point and attacked from behind.
Liu Ying, who was guarding the North Palace Gate, was covered in blood and ran to Bai Yao and said, "It was Yan Yulan who opened the North Palace Gate!" I've already set off the fireworks, and the cavalry will be in and escorting them in a moment! ”
Bai Yao looked at the chaos inside and outside the palace, gritted his teeth and said: "The deputy commander has gone out of the city, calculate the time, you shouldn't know the affairs of the capital yet, you send someone to go to the city gate to release a letter cigarette, let the deputy commander know!" ”
Liu Ying answered and hurried down the city wall.
The rebels in the palace and the Suzaku army fought together, and some people had already bypassed the battlefield in a vain attempt to secretly open the south gate.
Bai Yao shouted: "Array!" Defend the gates! ”
Speaking a trumpet.
Most of the Suzaku Army were people who had never been on the battlefield, and they had already been blinded by the rebels, but at this moment, after listening to the horn, they knew that they were going to form a spider web array, and gradually regained their senses and quickly formed a formation.
The rebels had never seen this formation, and they couldn't break through for a while, so the leader shouted loudly, withdrew with the rebels, and gave up opening the Nangong Gate, obviously wanting to enter through the wide-open Beigong Gate.
Bai Yao also ordered the Vermilion Bird Army to support the Beigong Gate, and thought of closing the gate, at least not allowing these rebels outside the palace to come in from the Beigong Gate to burn and loot.
Just when Bai Yao was at a loss, he heard the person under the Nangong Gate shouting: "Open the door!" ”
Bai Yao suddenly turned her head to look, and was pleasantly surprised to find that Cui Sanniang was standing outside the Nangong Gate, and what Cui Sanniang was pushing was Yang Siyue in soft armor!
"Commander!"
Bai Yao shouted, and then immediately ordered the south city gate to be opened, and then hurriedly went down the city gate.
Yang Siyue was pushed into the palace by Cui Sanniang, and Bai Yao explained the current situation at the fastest speed.
Yang Siyue's pale face was slightly flushed because of illness, and said: "Since the letter smoke has been released, presumably the cavalry battalion has already left the camp, you go to the North Palace Gate to answer, and the South Palace Gate will be handed over to me." ”
Bai Yao answered, and wanted to persuade him, it is not good to be in charge, so it is better to rest.
can see Cui Sanniang shaking her head slightly to herself, and she understands in her heart that as a soldier, she would rather be shrouded in horse leather than die of illness in bed, but in the end she didn't say anything and gave up.
Kunning Palace.
Outside there were endless shouts and screams, and in the dormitory, Mrs. Tao looked at Yan Yulan in front of her with a pale face.
She didn't understand why Yan Yulan would attack her!
She's going to marry her brother! If she hadn't been promoted by herself, would her father's position be able to be the chief soldier of the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division?
Yan Yulan's gorgeous face looked gloomy and weird in the flickering candlelight.
She stepped forward, looked at the confused Empress Dowager Tao, sneered, and reached out to touch the cheek of the young Empress Dowager.
"The Queen Mother is strange, why do I want to deal with you?"
Empress Dowager Tao glanced around, and saw that the people around her had already died, and she didn't dare to resist Yan Yulan's hand, but said tremblingly: "Yulan, we will be a family soon!" ”
Yan Yulan's hand was stunned, and she suddenly raised her hand, slapped it heavily on Empress Dowager Tao's beautiful face, and reprimanded angrily: "Presumptuous! Your foolish brother is worthy to be my husband? Now the Tao family is afraid that it has been slaughtered a long time ago! What else do you want to dream! ”
Empress Dowager Tao was in pain, exclaimed, and looked at Yan Yulan in horror, as if she didn't believe it, the daughter of a little second-class official in front of her dared to beat herself!
Yan Yulan's eyes were full of hatred, and she asked the soldiers behind her for a big knife, pressed it against Empress Dowager Tao's neck, gritted her teeth and said: "When you think you are giving me the position of county lord in exchange for me marrying your waste brother, I hate you!" ”
Empress Dowager Tao's teeth chattered, after all, she was just a woman in her early twenties.
In this life, except for not giving birth to a son, everything else was smooth, and she even sat on the throne of the queen mother with almost no effort.
Everywhere she went, she was held high and flattered with good words, and it wasn't until this moment that she knew that she was really just a woman.
The cold blade slashed across her skin, the warm blood stained the blade, but she didn't die.
Yan Yulan's strength was too small, too small to cut her trachea at once.
Empress Dowager Tao opened her mouth, her eyes protruded, and she wanted to say something, but when she saw that Yan Yulan looked like a ghost from hell, she smiled and gave her another knife.
Seeing that Empress Dowager Tao was out of breath, Yan Yulan returned the heavy big knife to the soldier and said, "Go to Guangning Palace!" ”
Since the Empress Dowager participated in the court politics, too many people have been in and out of Cining Palace, so after Concubine Shu took Li You back to the palace, she lived in Guangning Palace.
Concubine Shu and Li You are immortal, and Yan Yulan's aunt and grandmother, the Empress Dowager, will not be able to sleep peacefully even if she sits on the throne of the Empress Dowager.
Quang Ninh Palace.
As soon as the palace was in chaos, Concubine Fang and Concubine Zhu came to Concubine Shu with people.
This was discussed by the three of them when they were in the palace, on the second day of Li You's poisoning. If there is an emergency in the future, we will put together so that we can also bring people together.
And when there was a change in the palace, Concubine Zhu and Concubine Fang decided to come to Concubine Shu without thinking about it.
Because whether it is in the palace or in the palace, Concubine Shu always has the most guards around her.
However, when the two of them saw Li You in Concubine Shu's arms, they regretted it a little.
This palace change must be related to the struggle for the throne, and the rebels will definitely send a large number of men and horses to attack Quang Ninh Palace.
Didn't the two of them come together to bring on their own bad luck?
