Chapter Seventy-Three: The Clansmen Are Detained
"Hooray! - Hooray! - Hooray! - Hooray! ”
Gao Liuyue cried, she promised the first emperor, but she did it, and there was no humiliation of the mission.
……
Inside the city.
The entrance to the palace is already full of fighting.
But Zhou Dewei was not here, and Qin Chongnian's people didn't notice him at all.
Seeing that the palace was about to be breached, Qin Chongnian personally rushed in with more than a hundred elite guards and stepped on the corpses of the crowd.
The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace retreated to both sides one after another when they saw this, and they had no power to fight back, and they did not dare to fight back.
Walk forward...... It's the Golden Luan Palace!
"Lord Wang, there is no master in the palace, this is an opportunity given to you by God!"
"Huh...... Silly boy, that's a godsend. Immediately go to the harem to search for the jade seal and the sword of the Son of Heaven, as long as you have these two things. Oh yes! Ordered to seal off the palace, strictly prohibit anyone from entering or leaving, and send a few people to inquire about the news of Wang Er on the periphery. ”
"The last general understands!"
As soon as he entered the palace, Qin Chongnian's whole person was dizzy.
He wanted to be an emperor, he thought about it for decades, and from his teens to now, he could dream of the throne of the palace every day.
Outside the Golden Palace, Qin Chongnian shook the blade in his hand and said to the people around him, "Isn't the Imperial Forest Army clear and clean?" Hands and feet are so slow. ”
"Back to the prince's words, Zhao Zheng is fighting to the death, and the people of Liu Fang, the commander of the Nine Gates, are also gathering here."
"No matter! Close the three palace gates inside first, and set up crossbowmen! Let our people climb high and shoot from a distance, as long as my son kills Qin Chuan, no one will come, and this king will not be afraid. ”
What is urgent now is Qin Yu's news.
But this dragon seat, he still can't help but sit down.
Qin Chongnian walked over hungrily, touching the pure gold throne, his hands trembling: "Father, father...... Why did you fall in love with him, am I not fit to be an emperor? In the end, what will happen, don't you still have to let me do it? It's my thing, it can't run away. ”
At the foot of the steps, in addition to his two guards, there was a dead soldier, and this dead soldier was still Zhou Dewei's man.
Qin Chongnian sat down peacefully: "What about your master Zhou Dewei?" Said he was here to help, why didn't he be? He wanted to lie to me and slip away on his own, didn't he? ”
The dead man said: "My master is unfathomable, and I don't know where he is. However, the master had told him that in the next thing he must do. ”
"Oh? Really? What's up. ”
"The master commands - take off the head of your neck, prince."
As soon as these words came out, the two guards immediately put their swords on his neck, and they shot quite quickly.
Qin Chongnian couldn't stop laughing: "Hahaha! - Zhou Dewei is so scheming, he really didn't plan to support this king, but this king is not a fool, let him play tricks. These two people beside you are the highest martial arts under this king, and they have won all battles, otherwise, how can this king rest assured that he will take you with an outsider. ”
With that, he pointed with his hand: "Kill him." ”
Swish!
I saw the dead man slash horizontally, and in an instant, he beheaded the two guards.
The swordsmanship is so fast that it's hard to see.
Qin Chongnian was stunned at this time: "You ...... Are you a human or a ghost? ”
"Lord Wang, you are a person in the rivers and lakes, and you will naturally not know about the swordsmanship tricks you have learned."
As he spoke, he walked towards Qin Chongnian.
"You...... Don't come over - how much did Zhou Dewei give you? This king gives you ten times! You can take refuge in this king...... Ben, this king will give you—"
The dead man put away his sword and walked out of the main hall, and at the same time, with a whistle, three dead soldiers in the distance rushed over.
The leader of the dead soldiers said: "Act according to the master's plan and go to the West Palace Gate to greet His Highness Qin Yue." ”
The most dangerous place, but also the safest place.
Zhou Dewei was in his burned Xiangye Mansion, commanding the overall situation.
He was strange that Liu Fang had 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city, why did he dare to go to the gate of the palace to support less than 1,000 people.
In addition, Qin Chuan didn't take many people out to worship the heavens, this kid's city is so deep, how could he not send enough people to protect himself.
So...... Where did the 30,000 people in the hands of Liu Fang, the commander of the Nine Gates, go.
Where is Liu Zhongping, who is loyal to Qin Chuan, at this moment.
If he couldn't figure out this fog, he didn't dare to show it.
Inside the house, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs was waiting for him to give an order.
"Duke Zhou, why haven't you entered the palace yet? His Royal Highness Qin Yue should have already entered the palace, and now as long as we enter, we can directly elect His Royal Highness Qin Yue as the emperor. ”
"Yes, Duke Zhou, don't hesitate, miss the opportunity, it's too late to regret!"
Zhou Dewei shook his head slowly: "Don't persuade you, Liu Fang's 30,000 people, their whereabouts are unknown, are they waiting for us?" Do you know what to expect? Maybe they're just waiting for us to make a move, and then take it in one fell swoop. We have less than 5,000 people available in the city, so we can't afford to be careless. ”
"Xiangye, although there are not many people, as long as you occupy a few commanding heights in the palace and use crossbowmen, you can repel people who are several times our size. Liu Fang's men and horses are not good at bows and crossbows, but only infantry, what are they afraid of? ”
He didn't believe that Qin Chuan would be so rash.
If you make a wrong move at this time, you will be accompanied by the whole family.
Everything he has worked hard for decades will also be in vain.
Someone came to report: "Zhou Gong! - The second prince has already entered the palace! Idle King Qin Chongnian has been ambushed! ”
After hearing this, the ministers on the left and right were all excited.
"Sangkook! If you don't do it now, when will you wait?! Enter the palace immediately, then close the city gate and the palace gate, not let anyone enter or exit, and quickly occupy the commanding heights in the city! ”
"I'm waiting, I'm willing to take the head of the prime minister!"
Zhou Dewei pondered for a moment and looked at the eyes of the people present: "Okay, since everyone said so, I won't postpone it anymore." I'm ......."
"Newspaper!! ——”
Another small guy came to report, and he knelt down here with a sweaty head: "Zhou Gong! Big things are not good! ”
"What's wrong? Did Qin Chuan come back alive?! ”
"No, it's all the family members and clansmen of the adults, all gone, hundreds of people from the Zhou Gong clan, all of whom are missing!"
Everyone here was a blow to the head, and all of the wives, children, and relatives in the family were arrested.
With so many people's clansmen, there may be more than 10,000 people.
One of the senior officers asked, "When?!" Is it true?! ”
"The little one didn't dare to lie, the little one was ordered to investigate, and as soon as he learned about it, he immediately came to report it."
Zhou Dewei sat down, first silent for a while, and then laughed: "Hehe...... Now I finally know what Liu Fang is doing, Liu Zhongping's uncle and nephew, at the cost of Qin Chuan's life, arrested our relatives and clansmen, in order to restrain our hands and feet. This prince is smart enough to think more than I do. ”
