Chapter 10: Fire Attack

The heavy gate was pushed by the guards, then closed and closed, and a large number of guards climbed the palace walls, bows and arrows ready for defense. The footsteps in the distance were getting closer and closer, and the gatekeeper hurriedly looked carefully, and all the people who came were in uniform leather armor in front of them, holding Changge in their hands, and the first person was riding on a horse.

"Second son?" the general was stunned for a moment, and muttered to himself in confusion.

The large group of men and horses approached, formed under the city, and then began to disperse to both sides, obviously organized and planned actions, the generals saw clearly, there was a big problem here, "Why did the second prince bring troops here, don't you know the rules of the palace?"

"I heard that the princes were in rebellion, King Telaiqin, open the palace gate as soon as possible, and I will enter the palace to protect my father. Wei Zhongyan said the righteousness of Ling Ran.

"I don't know where the second son heard the news, the palace is calm, no one rebelled, and please ask the second son to leave quickly, otherwise the king will blame him, and the second son will also be guilty. When the general heard Wei Zhongyan's words, his heart sank, this second prince wanted to usurp the throne, so he persuaded him.

"Hmph, it seems that you are all the way with the princes, so I won't say more, someone will close the palace gate. Behind Wei Zhongyan's team were some big carts, and the servants hurriedly ran over with some things, and then wanted to pile up at the gate.

The general on the palace wall didn't know why, so he didn't give the order to release the arrows, but continued: "It's better for the second prince to retreat, otherwise once the king gets angry, even the second son's life will be difficult to protect." The second prince is only 3,000 guards, even if most of the guards in the palace are transferred, it is not something that the second prince can break through with only 3,000 guards. ”

"I know, of course I do, but I didn't try to break it. Wei Zhongyan saw that the gate was blocked, and then with a wave of his hand, a large number of guards took out bows and arrows, and then some fire oil was on the arrow, and after igniting the fire, they shot directly inside. The servants, on the other hand, were assembling something, a bit like a trebuchet, with not stones on it, but lots of tinder.

"Not good. "The general understands that this is to burn down the palace, and the soldiers who dispersed to both sides just now are probably going to block other doors, if the gates are all blocked, then the only way to leave the palace is to go down from the palace wall. "Leave half of the people to guard the palace wall, and all the others go to put out the fire, and immediately spread the word to the inside that the second prince rebelled and wanted to burn the palace. ”

A palace guard hurriedly ran all the way inside, and then shouted loudly: "The second prince rebels, he wants to burn the palace, and quickly prepare something to extinguish the fire......" shouted all the way, and everyone who heard it was stunned, and then immediately became a mess, and the things in the hands of the servants kept falling to the ground, and then ran around like headless flies.

In the main hall of the council, Di Yi was still listening to the statements of the princes below, although they were the same, but he had to listen carefully, which was a symbol of royal power. But there was a commotion outside the hall, Di Yi frowned and looked out, and after a while, a guard rushed in, "Report to the king, the second prince led the army to rebel, besieged the palace, and was throwing fire-starting things into the palace." ”

"Huh, really?" Di Yi was a little unconvinced.

"That's true, now the second prince is leading troops at the main gate of the palace, and now the gate has been blocked, and at the same time, he has also divided his troops to block the other gates of the palace. Deadpool snapped back.

After hearing this, Di Yi was angry, "cough cough ......" But he was not in good health, he was angry and coughed, the queen hurriedly came to his side and patted him on the back gently, Di Yi waved his hand, signaling that he was fine, and then raised his head, "Taishi." ”

"The King. Wen Zhong came out and hugged his fists.

"Taishi go to the main gate to see the rebel, if he is willing to stop, then I can spare him. "What Di Yi said was very difficult.

The queen was also very anxious, that was also her own son, what happened today, "King, that is our child." "For a mother, after all, it is her own child, if you can't kill it, it's good to lock it up!

Di Yi shook his head, "He is our son, but he is also my courtier, and I am the king." One sentence illustrates the helplessness and majesty of the royal family, this kind of thing must be killed and set an example, otherwise what do the 800 princes think? What do the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty think?

"Commanded. Wen Zhong was loyal, and without the slightest hesitation about Di Yi's words, he turned around and walked out of the main hall directly, asked for his own sword at the door of the main hall, and went directly to the main gate with his sword. The brief chaos in the palace calmed down under the pressure of the guards, and the servants began to prepare for the fire. Now that there is smoke rising in the direction of the main gate, the fire has begun to spread, so many fires have been thrown in, it is difficult to extinguish it by relying on the guards at the main gate alone, and a large number of servants have begun to pour here.

Sun Ming was still waiting for the banquet, but suddenly there was a chaotic shout from the front, he could have used his divine sense to check, but Sun Ming, who had always been cautious, did not do so, and said directly to the servant beside him: "Send someone to see, what's going on?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. The servant trotted out, and in a short time came in with a guard.

As soon as the guards came in, they knelt on one knee, clasped their hands into fists and said to Sun Ming: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the second prince rebelled, led troops to besiege the palace, and is now setting fires. After saying that, he looked at Sun Ming.

"Oh!" Sun Ming sighed indifferently, without a panicked expression at all, as if this matter had little to do with him, and after a few breaths of silence, Sun Ming said: "Order, all the harem servants are dispatched to the front to fight the fire, the harem guards are arranged along the palace wall of the harem, there is no need to fight, pay attention to observe whether there is a fire being put in, even if it is extinguished, if the other party attacks, retreat directly, shrink the defense, go!"

The servant beside him hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Highness, the servants and guards of the harem can't move, you are now one of the main targets." ”

"It doesn't matter, the second prince's guards are only 3,000 people, and the servants are only hundreds, how many people can he have? His main target must be the front palace, where there are fathers, queens, and eight hundred princes, that is his goal, and at the same time, the concubines on the harem king, not to mention, are all concentrated in the queen mother's bedroom, except for the maids who carry them, other servants must go to the front palace to put out the fire, and those who violate the order will be beheaded. ”

"Yes. The guard's spirit was shocked, and the little prince was decisive and calm, and he analyzed the form thoroughly, although he couldn't understand it, but now he understood, and got up and hurried to give the order.

Sun Ming thought for a while, then picked up his bronze short sword, walked out of the palace directly in a gorgeous costume, and went to the harem with ten guards. At this time, the harem was in chaos, and the guards were driving the servants to the front palace with the utensils containing water, and the harem maids took the maids to the queen's bedroom, crying and shouting all the way.

Sun Ming's arrival made them seem to see the backbone of the main heart, and wanted to rush over and cry, Sun Ming waved his hand, and the ten guards directly drew their swords out of their sheaths and lined up in front of Sun Ming, and Sun Ming shouted at this time: "Shut up for me." ”

The female dependents were stunned for a moment, looking at the murderous guards, and were stunned for a moment, Sun Ming continued to shout: "The harem is very safe, now all go to the queen's bedroom to settle down, naturally there are guards to protect it, crying and crying into what kind of system, and then there are those who disturb the order." As soon as he spoke, the ten guards and the surrounding guards also shouted: "Chop." ”

The female dependents were stunned, and they didn't dare to cry if they were wronged, and then followed the guards to the queen's bedroom, and Sun Ming followed closely behind, "Protect this place, don't go in and out at will, the number of people doesn't need to be too much, and prepare some water just in case." After Sun Ming made arrangements, he rushed directly to the front hall with ten guards and a large number of servants.

The fire was still burning, and it was difficult to extinguish the fire with leak detection tools, and Wen Zhong came to the palace wall and looked down, the soldiers outside were still throwing fire-starters, and there was smoke rising from other directions of the palace, but it was not as huge as the fire in the front palace.

"Second son, you are immortal!" Wen Zhong frowned and looked outside.

"Haha, don't you die? I am my father's best son, why can't I inherit the throne just because I was born at the wrong time? Why does a six-year-old doll ride on my head, and my weak big brother is also before me, I am slightly unconvinced. Wei Zhongyan's eyes were red, and his face was hideous.

Wen Zhong looked at his expression and then shook his head, "Second son, you have fallen into the devil, too, now you don't seem to be able to turn back, but the king still gives you a chance, it's too late to give up now, at least you can save your life." ”

"Life, now you need to save your life, right? Wen Zhong, I know that you have immortal methods, but you can't use them in the palace, this is the rule, I know it clearly, haha...... Now you're just a mortal. "What Wei Zhongyan said is not wrong, Di Yi is now the Emperor of the People, and the Land of the Emperor of the People is not allowed for cultivators to use spells and supernatural powers, this is the rule of the Holy City, and the cultivators of the Holy City are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the human race.

Wen Zhong belongs to the sect, so he can enter the court as an official, but he can't use spells and supernatural powers here, otherwise the holy city will be requisitioned. Sun Ming set up such a rule at the beginning, mortal affairs can only be solved by mortal means, otherwise they are all spells and supernatural powers, so if order does not exist, there will be no development.

"That's true, but don't forget, the second son, King Wucheng is just outside the city, the palace is on fire, King Wucheng will definitely send troops, you won't succeed. Wen Zhong shook his head.

"Hmph, how could I forget, but now that it's so hot, it's already in ruins when he sends his troops, and it's up to me to speak. Wei Zhongyan is now rushing for time, "The speed is fast, keep throwing, the sea of fire is not big enough." Wei Zhongyan turned his head and ordered, his hideous face made the guards and servants tremble, and they didn't dare to pause in their hands.
