259:Full Moon Night, Top of the Forbidden City (1)
In the dead of night, the moon is in the sky.
On the street that should have been silent, I suddenly saw many figures gathering, appearing one by one from all directions, and then gathering towards the imperial city.
These people gathered more and more, rising and falling, and their skills were like ghosts, shuttling between the moonlight and the shadows, and they were castrated very quickly.
This is the henchmen that Gonggong Liu has cultivated over the years, together with the many recruited righteous sons and cronies, plus the children of the Blue Dragon Society who stayed in the capital, so that the two of them have the determination to make the last game.
These righteous sons of Gonggong Liu are not only eunuchs, but also include the commanders of the forbidden army in the imperial city, as well as the children of many officials of the six departments, and the catches of the six doors, as well as the ears and eyes of the hidden piles lurking in the palaces of many courtiers, which are intertwined, just like everything that the Blue Dragon Society operates in the rivers and lakes, has been waiting for today.
Moreover, there are still many masters of the rivers and lakes he recruited in the Leopard Pavilion, including many murderous Jiangyang thieves, as well as some death row prisoners who were sent to prison, all of them are first-class ruthless characters in the rivers and lakes.
Now Gonggong Liu has released them.
This last game, of course, has to be struck hard.
Gonggong Liu is confident that he can take control of the capital completely in his own hands without much effort.
In fact, for many years, the city has long been under his control, and no matter what, no matter how much wind and grass blows, can not escape his ears and eyes.
But the difference is that in the past, he was only under one person and above ten thousand. And now, he wants to take the last step, he doesn't want to be under one person, he wants to be above the people in the world, beyond the common people, including the Son of Heaven.
The capital is a top priority.
Once he is in control, he can not only gain a respite, but maybe turn the situation around.
You must know that the royal relatives inside and outside the palace, plus the many court officials in the capital, can be used to save lives.
In this way, whether the other party returns to Beijing or not, they can take the lead.
As long as the situation is stabilized, then things will be easy.
With Liu Gonggong's means, not to mention anything else, once the divine achievement is completed, the life of the Son of Heaven is not in the bag.
When the time comes, if he wants to kill anyone, who in the world can stop him?
It was late at night.
These people seem to have been discussed and arranged a long time ago, and even the guards guarding the imperial city seem to be in league with them, and they have given way.
Under the shadow of the moon, on top of an ancient tower somewhere in the capital, Li Ducian stood with his arms crossed, facing the wind and the moon, and lowered his eyes to overlook the huge Jinghua at his feet, and the lights of thousands of homes.
Feeling the terrifying murderous intent brewing in the dark, his eyes moved slightly, and he could already glimpse figures from the shadows that could not be illuminated by the lights.
These people waited for an opportunity, as if waiting for something.
"There are quite a few people." Li Ducian whispered to herself, but a look of hesitation flashed on her face, "Things seem to have become interesting." ”
Especially when he saw those people sneaking into the palace, he first let out a "huh", and the hesitation on his face faded, replaced by a strange smile, playful mockery, and contempt.
It's not that you can't enter the palace, but it's not yet time to get in.
This palace is located in the depths of the capital, and all sides can be guarded, so take this place first, just like Qiu Xiaolou did back then.
Moreover, since the emperor was able to make an edict in advance and was ready to die, how could he be idle, how could he not be unprepared.
If it were to be arranged, the palace would be the most dangerous place.
Li Ducian squinted, and in his opinion, this Forbidden City was like a trap with a wide mouth waiting for everyone to drill into it.
Once an ambush is set up, it is just to catch a turtle in an urn, close the door and beat the dog, and it will be dead.
However, these are all his guesses, whether this is the case, he has to go over and take a look, he doesn't want this trip to be uncertain. If a master like Gonggong Liu doesn't kill him, I'm afraid he won't even be able to sleep well in the future.
At this time, suddenly there is a wind, the sky is floating clouds, the moon is suddenly covered, the light and shade are changing, just waiting for the moonlight to reappear, the ancient tower is already empty,
And no one could see that under the long sky, above the capital, there was a figure like a wisp of green smoke lifted up in the air, and then turned around and threw itself straight towards the Forbidden City.
The Forbidden City is deep, the Qiong Tower is majestic, and the four sides of the city seem to be calm, but the shadows are full of people who are moving in a hurry.
Under the moon, suddenly a figure seemed to fly from the sky, silently landing on the eaves of a corner of the sky.
Li Ducian only glanced at it casually, and his body moved again, and he had swept towards the depths of the palace.
If the emperor had already made arrangements, there must have been someone in charge of the overall situation in secret.
Li Ducian's eyes were dark, and his mind turned, this person must be very unusual, and he is a person worthy of the emperor's trust, and even a person who can never betray.
In an instant, Li Ducian had already thought of who the other party was, the successor on the edict.
Only this person will not betray the emperor, let alone betray the Zhu family, and swear to defend the capital to the death.
Suddenly, Li Dui's eyes flickered, and he quietly looked at a tower towering under the moon. It was a bell tower, standing on the wall, with a large bell hanging underneath, and there seemed to be a faint light shining under the bell.
There is absolutely no mistake, he is now a master of four things, his ears and eyes are sharp, as long as it is something under his nose, any little wind and grass will never escape.
Is anyone watching in the dark?
Li Ducian pursed his lips and smiled, it seems that there is indeed an ambush.
It wasn't until he reached an empty field that he finally stopped, his eyes showing a strange color.
But in a large hall at the end, the lights were bright, and there was a faint movement of courtiers bowing inside.
Fengtian Temple.
Seeing this scene, even Li Ducian was surprised. It seems to be a place where the ministers and officials discuss with the emperor, and there are guards outside, could it be that the emperor has also rushed back?
Of course not.
Li Ducian's eyes lit up, "This person is so smart." ”
This move was not to deter Gonggong Liu and them, but to use it as bait to lure out the two.
Only when Gonggong Liu and Bai Yujing appeared, it was time to close the net.
In such a situation, the situation has been like an arrow on the string, it is inevitable, Liu Gonggong They can only advance, not retreat, they must test the truth and falsehood, they really want to kill, and the fake must be killed.
Those who sneaked in, as soon as they saw the lights in the Fengtian Temple and listened to the movement inside, their expressions changed drastically, and they were dripping with cold sweat.
"The emperor is back?"
But at this time, retreating is also a dead end, and the eyes of these people quickly turned fierce.
"Tell the brethren to get ready to do it!"
As soon as the words fell, I suddenly saw a little spark rise into the sky, and then bloom.
In an instant, those who infiltrated the palace turned from darkness to light, gathered and converged from all places, and killed them towards the Fengtian Temple.
No, they plan to do it directly.
But there are still smart people.
I saw many masters rushing to hear the news, but when they saw the Fengtian Temple, they looked at the lights inside, they were stunned at first, and then their faces were blue and ugly, and they said in a dumb voice: "Oh no, I'm fooled!" ”
"Boom!"
A bell rang under the moon.
Immediately after, in all directions, there were already bursts of sonorous and powerful steps, rising and falling like drums.
Someone else shouted: "Kill no one, don't leave one!" ”
