Chapter 287: The Prime Minister's Mansion is Besieged
July 27, the day before the death of Emperor Dayu Taizu.
Early in the morning, Zuo Xiang Leng Yiqing led hundreds of civil and military officials to gather outside the east gate of Jingyang City to send the holy Luan Yu to the imperial tomb to guard filial piety.
Seeing the car escorted by 5,000 heavily armed guards and pro-army gradually moving away, a cold smile unconsciously appeared on his cold lips, turned around and got into his own carriage, preparing to go directly to the government hall set up in the palace to deal with government affairs.
Sitting in the stable and comfortable carriage, he heard the sound of the horse's hooves on the bluestone road, and Leng Yiqing knew that the carriage had entered the city gate.
He closed his eyes slightly, to hide the little excitement and uneasiness in his heart at the moment.
It's finally getting started!
Regardless of the ultimate success or failure, this step has been taken without hesitation!
Dayu will change the world and create a new pattern from now on.
Defeated, the blood will flow in Jingyang City, and the heads of countless people, including him, the Zuo Xiang, will fall to the ground.
As the fake prince, no, it was his brother-in-law Haoxing Mingrui who said, if you want to realize your ambition, you must be willing to sacrifice!
Thinking of this, Leng Yiqing couldn't help but smash his right hand clenched into a fist to the palm of his left hand, and suddenly felt the blood boiling in his chest and his pride stirring.
And at this moment, the carriage he was riding in jerked violently, almost swinging out his proud Lord Zuo Xiang directly!
Leng Yiqing hurriedly straightened the crooked official hat on his head, and swallowed back the rebuke that he almost blurted out.
He lifted the curtain on one side of the car and poked his head out to see what he had just come across.
Unexpectedly, before he could see everything clearly, the body of the car shook violently, causing his head to hit the window directly. And coincidentally, the official hat on his head was actually thrown out of the window!
Even if he, the Zuo Prime Minister, has a good cultivation and a temperament that is as gentle as jade, he will finally be unbearable at this moment, and it will be difficult to maintain the demeanor of the so-called humble gentleman.
I heard him shout angrily, "You bastard! How the hell do you drive?!"
There was silence outside the car for a moment, and then a clear laugh sounded: "The child is reckless, this driving skill is really too poor, but it frightens my father! β
As soon as Fang heard the familiar laughter, Leng Yiqing knew that Han Bing had been sitting outside the car for some time. Just when they were inexplicable, they heard that it was still cold ice driving, and the place they were going to was not the political hall, but the prime minister's mansion.
Although his father was full of questions at this time, he still held back and remained silent and did not say anything more.
Although Fang Cai only glanced out the window, he had already discovered that the road that the carriage was currently taking was not the main street leading to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but a narrow alley.
That's why the road is so potholed, and Han Bing is really not a good driver, so there is an embarrassing situation that almost throws his father out of the car.
And the reason why Han Bing wanted to replace the coachman of the Prime Minister's Mansion and specially chose this deserted path to rush back to the Prime Minister's Mansion must have his own reasons.
Now the situation in the capital is delicate, and chaos is also imminent. Perhaps it is not a wise move to rush to the government hall at this time.
Just when the left minister was thinking about it, the carriage had stopped.
Then as soon as the car door opened, Han Bing's handsome face with a smile appeared in front of Leng Yiqing.
Every time I see his face that looks like Fang Yin, Leng Yiqing's heart will inevitably fluctuate, and the taste is really complicated.
He forced himself to hold the corners of his lips, and also showed a gentle smile to Han Bing, and then calmly stepped out of the car.
When he raised his eyes, he realized that he was not outside the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion at the moment, but had already arrived in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Han Bing actually drove the carriage directly into the Prime Minister's Mansion through the back door.
At this time, Han Bing stepped forward and grabbed one of Leng Yiqing's arms, and said in a deep voice, "Father, please come with me!"
So, under the guidance of Han Bing, Leng Yiqing walked quickly through the backyard, and then passed through a courtyard gate that had been locked several times and was now completely opened, and entered the Hui Garden.
Walking down the cobblestone road, they finally reached the courtyard where the ice lived.
Han Bing helped Leng Yiqing, who was slightly out of breath from this rush to leave, and let him sit down in the chair next to him.
After adjusting his breath a little, Leng Yiqing opened his mouth and asked, "Where have all the people in this prime minister's mansion gone?"
It turned out that on the way he had just traveled, he hadn't even seen a single person in the prime minister's house.
Han Bing smiled and said, "The subordinates in the Prime Minister's Mansion have just been sent away by me. And your coachman was killed by me and thrown in a dark alley. β
"Killed?!ββ,Could it be that he is also an agent of Ouchi?" Although Leng Yiqing tried to maintain his composure, there was already a hint of panic in his voice.
Han Bing nodded and said, "If it's just a secret agent in the inner house, he must have been ordered by Zheng Yong's traitorous eunuch to pull you away." So I had to send him to nowhere. β
I see!
Leng Yiqing couldn't help but think with some fear that he had almost fallen into the hands of the other party for no apparent reason!
"The situation is urgent, and I beg your pardon for not being able to explain it to my father. The Yan Clan's soldiers should have already begun to move in the city.
Song Xingye, the Marquis of Jingyuan, has also been ordered by the emperor to lead 5,000 guards to guard the palace city, which is enough to protect himself.
But the emperor will never let go of the Prime Minister's Mansion. We thought that he would take advantage of the chaos to use the soldiers of the Yan Mansion to attack the Prime Minister's Mansion, so we decided to let you go to the political hall and be protected by the Song Hou.
However, just now I was outside the city to monitor the procession that accompanied the saint to the imperial tomb, but I found that Zheng Yong's traitorous eunuch was not among them.
This traitor secretly stayed in the city, and the purpose was never to deal with the people of the king of Ji. Presumably, at this moment, the master of Ouchi led by him has surrounded this prime minister's mansion. β
At this time, Xiao Anzi ran in from outside and said urgently: "Childe, as soon as the people in those mansions came out of the gate, they were all stopped, and some people were identifying them one by one. β
Han Bing sneered and said, "Zheng Yong's traitorous eunuch is very thoughtful, afraid that we will take advantage of the chaos to escape among those subordinates." It's a pity that he miscalculated again this time!
Xiao Anzi, you and our people immediately escort Lord Zuo Xiang from the secret passage to Huafu. Then together with the people of Huafu, he went out of the city through the secret passage in the house.
When you arrive at the tea shop in the eastern suburbs, you will be escorted by the people there to the shelter we have built in the mountains and hide for a few days. β
"How many days?" Leng Yiqing asked in surprise.
"Not bad. The 100,000 Eastern Navy of Dongping Hou is extremely strong, although the strength of the forbidden army is not weak, but after all, Song Qingfeng has only just taken over the forbidden army, and he may not be able to command as much as his fingers.
Once the two sides start a war, there will never be a situation in which they will be defeated with a single blow, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to see the victory or defeat within a few days.
In the capital, the main duty of the 5,000 guards led by Song Hou was to guard the palace, and after controlling the situation, all the Yan soldiers who were circulating in the city were wiped out. These things will take days to complete. Andβ"
Speaking of this, Han Bing suddenly paused, smiled, and then continued: "Moreover, the confrontation on the Imperial Tomb side is the most critical game. The five thousand guards in Zhu Mo's hands don't know whose side they will end up on. β
Leng Yiqing nodded, then frowned at the black power suit that Han Bing was wearing, and asked with concern, "What about you, won't you go out of the city with us?"
Han Bing shook his head with a smile, but a cold light flashed in his starry eyes, "Since Zheng Yong wants to make a decision today, I will give him this opportunity!"
"Do you ββ, you want to stay here alone to deal with so many Ouchi masters?" Leng Yiqing's face couldn't help but change color.
Han Bing shook his head with a smile again, and said in a relaxed tone: "I promised my lord, not a single grass or tree in this Hui Garden will be moved, how can I let this place be stained with so much blood? I just went out to lure those people away." The capital is so big, and there are places for them to bury their bones!"
Leng Yiqing looked at Han Bing, opened his mouth, closed it again, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Then you have to be careful!"
Han Bing smiled slightly, "Don't worry, when the chaos in the city calms down, I will personally pick up the adults and return home." β
Leng Yiqing also smiled slightly and said, "Okay." Remember to find a good driver!"
Han Bing couldn't help laughing, "This is indeed something you must remember!"
