Outside the Jing Palace, there was suddenly a loud sound of killing and heavy fire.
Emperor Jing woke up from his dream, and the eunuch hurriedly came to report:
"Your Majesty! I don’t know when there was a rebel in the city, and they have already reached the palace gate!"
Emperor Jing got down from the couch in a hurry, without even wearing his shoes. He had time to wear it: "Where did the traitor come from? Are the defenses in the palace well prepared?"
"Your Majesty!" The eunuch knelt down on the ground, "The defenses in the palace are well prepared! But it's hard to be sure now. Please Please move up the secret passage and evacuate this palace quickly!”
Emperor Jing hurriedly put on his shoes and socks. After taking the cloak, he asked:
"Where are the other people in the palace? What is the situation outside now?"
The eunuch asked the emperor while He put on his cloak and urged: "Your Majesty, at this time, you are still thinking about others. ! Don’t worry, we’ll arrange it for you when the servants send you off!”
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Jing suddenly felt suspicious, but he remained calm and cooperated with the eunuch to get dressed. Then, when the eunuch turned around to lead the way, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and inserted it into his heart from behind.
If there was chaos in the palace, why not the imperial guards in the palace who would be the first to notify him? How did you get the supervisor's turn? Is it just him?
Emperor Jing took off his cloak, put on the eunuch's clothes, turned around and slipped out from behind the palace door.
Outside the palace gate, the sound of killing was loud, the fire burned half of the sky red, the sound of war drums was deafening, and the footsteps of soldiers and horses shook the ground.
He frowned and looked outside the palace, and hurried to the back mountain. He didn't care about the slippery road due to the snow. He climbed up to the top of the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Emperor Jing's neck turned red, and sweat flowed from his forehead to his collar, reflecting on his chest and back. He swallowed, got up from the ground, and went to pull the bell's striking pillar.
One sound, two sounds, three sounds——
Liu Zhang opened his eyes from the side room. He hadn't eaten or slept all day and night. Even though he was completely despairing, his nerves could not help but become tense.
Three bells ring, the palace changes and chaos arises.
He rushed out the door with a knife.
The soldiers in Jingcheng all woke up from their dreams. Some were still holding their little children in their arms, some woke up shaking their heads at the wine table, and some woke up from the loneliness. Wake up in the yard.
They all put on their armor and rushed towards Jing Palace without any explanation.
Yu Jingmo woke up from the couch holding his head. After having a headache for a long time, his eyes were red -
"Why did it happen in advance? It's still winter!"
Liu Zhang rushed to the palace In front of the gate, the rebels had already broken through the first line of defense of Jing Palace. All the rebels gathered outside the palace gate, about two to three thousand people. When they were leaderless, he held up the captain's token and ordered the three armies.
"All officers and men, listen to your orders! The king is in trouble, and we have to come. There are four palace gates in Jing Palace. Now, 800 people follow the right general to enter from the west gate, and 800 people follow the left general to enter from the north gate. Come in, the rest of you will follow me to catch up with the rebels from the main gate and annihilate them in one fell swoop!”
Although Jingcheng is large, it is impossible for the rebels to gather so many people in a short period of time. Coupled with the palace change, Liu Zhang was not willing to believe that there were so many soldiers in the city. He only took the lead in using his own The rest of the soldiers were still asked to wait outside the city to wait for support.
The general on the left, Wang Yi, sneered and said: "A prince stationed at the border is here to act as a boss..."
The general on the right, Yang Guangxin, raised his palm and interrupted Wang Yi: "Just listen. , It’s not our soldiers.”
After that, Wang Yi immediately understood the meaning, nodded with a smile, turned the horse's head, and shouted to the soldiers behind him:
"Eight hundred soldiers are coming with me! Destroy the enemy and protect the king!" ”
For a time, the fire inside and outside Jingcheng was overwhelming.
The fire lasted until the sky turned white. When the rebel leader finally reached the back mountain and Emperor Jing was captured and brought to the leader, he straightened his clothes and looked at the young general.
I saw the "general" leaning on his dragon chair, his brows and eyes showing the unruly and far-sightedness of the emperor. He was dressed like a moon country, and he was playing with his jade seal casually, as if he was casual. Child playing with toys.
"My reinforcements are outside the palace. You are already a turtle in the urn. I advise you to surrender as soon as possible to avoid futile casualties." Emperor Jing was not to be outdone. He raised his chest with his hands behind his back and just glanced at the man briefly. The young man looked to the other side.
Nasen stood up from the dragon chair, threw the jade seal casually into the chair, patted the dust on his hands, and walked down the steps step by step.
"Emperor Jing, today is the day for us to meet. I just came a little early. Why do you still want to fight with me?" Nasen said in fluent Chinese.
Emperor Jing's expression changed slightly. The prince of the Moon Kingdom actually spoke Chinese so fluently.
Nasen smiled slightly and approached Emperor Jing: "There is no need to be angry, Emperor Jing. I came today just to ask you for something. I have no intention of taking your throne."
"What?"
Nasen took out the map from his arms and pointed to it. After thinking about the city for a long time, he looked puzzled and said to Emperor Jing:
"It's really difficult. I see that every piece of land in Jingguo is very rich! I didn't know how to choose for a while. Emperor Jing snorted coldly: "Although Jingguo is small, it doesn't give up an inch of land."
After listening, Nasen raised his neck and laughed. He just laughed and looked at Emperor Jing: "Don't get me wrong, Emperor Jing, I just want to borrow a business route."
He walked up slowly. Front: "Originally, I didn't plan to send troops today, but this Jingcheng is really boring, and the people over Qingqiu are pressing hard, but to be honest , Even if I conquer Jingguo, for me, it is just a wedding dress for others."
Nasen is not the most preferred heir of the King of Yue Kingdom, so even if I conquer Jingguo, it will still be very important. Maybe he was making a wedding dress for someone else, not to mention that King Laoyue was now in power, and he was not unclear about the fate of his great achievements.
Emperor Jing knew immediately. He rubbed his fingertips and said: "If you want to open a trade route in Jingguo, you can definitely negotiate and discuss it. But the prince directly fights against him. I'm afraid it's more than his appetite."
Nasen smiled: "Indeed, he is worthy of being an old king."
He squeezed the Jing coins in his hand: "I want to move into Jing Palace."
Liu Zhang broke in from the front door. , He was invincible along the way, and wherever he passed, it was difficult to survive. It didn't take long before he rushed to the front of the main hall.
Just the long period of killing has made his already weak body even more exhausted. He looked towards the main hall with blood all over his body and face. There were thousands of soldiers behind him, but now there are only a few left. Hundreds of remnant soldiers.
The main hall is where the west gate and the north gate meet. But at this time, both sides are impregnable. Is there any trace of reinforcements?
The general behind him suddenly shouted: "General, why are you hesitating? I am willing to rush forward!"
Looking at the Yue Kingdom soldiers who were waiting in formation, Liu Zhang felt angry in his heart. He had known that Jingcheng and other generals were all The wine bag and rice bag, at first glance, are basically defective products. They are hypocrites who rely on the yin skills of their ancestors to gain official positions and only know how to protect themselves and eat, drink and have fun!
He couldn't help but feel angry, but he only focused his anger on his spear. He waved his arms and said to the soldiers behind him:
"Anyone who insults my lord will be punished if you listen to your orders. His crime deserves to be punished ! Break through the moon thieves and rescue the king!"
For a time, Jingguo's army was overwhelming. It was not easy to assemble such a group of untrained soldiers in such a short period of time and win a battle.
When it was daylight, Na Sen was in the main hall, and Liu Zhang was covered in blood. He had countless wounds, but none of them were as scary as his bloodshot eyes.
Nasen turned the silver ring. Even though he had seen him many times on the battlefield, every time he met, he couldn't help but be shocked by the man in front of him. If he were not the hostile party, he would really want to be with such a man. The people drank and talked happily and had a discussion.
Nasen walked down the steps and clapped his hands: "The captain is really brave, much earlier than I thought. It's a pity that Jingguo is at the end of its strength. Even if there are a few more captains, it will be too late." There is nothing left to do.”
Liu Zhang raised his head, behind him, There were only a few soldiers left outside the door. He stretched out his fist to wipe the remaining blood on his chin and sneered:
"I would rather be a homeless ghost than a slave who loses my country. Prince Nasen, Please come back, otherwise, we will have another bloody battle today.”
Nasen was a little stunned by his words. He smiled awkwardly and waved his hand: "You misunderstood, Captain."
As he said that, he glanced at his men, and the people on both sides immediately stepped back. , Emperor Jing was freed from human control.
Nasen held up his hands and said: "We will be classmates studying together from now on. I hope the prince can forgive me for my rashness today!"
After that, he raised his hand and said, The country's masters are in the open and in the dark at this moment. Not knowing how many people had gathered, they all withdrew from the main hall. Liu Zhang was shocked to realize that the soldiers outside the hall were just human shields used by Nasen to delay time and hide others. His true strength was beyond Jingguo's imagination. Irresistible.
He gripped the spear tightly and almost fell to the ground. He used the spear to support his body and knelt down to Emperor Jing:
"Help me..."
Before he finished speaking, two figures suddenly appeared on both sides. When he took a closer look, he saw that they were Wang Yi and Yang Guangxin. These two people also wiped some on their faces. Blood, but no traces of injury?
The two of them knelt down on the ground, facing Emperor Jing, almost crying, with tears in their eyes, and said:
"I am late to save you, please punish me!"
Liu Zhang silently said, forget it, your Majesty is safe and sound, that's all.
It's night.
Luo Fei was crying at first, but when she heard that everything was fine, she hurriedly ordered the kitchen and brought a bowl of red dates and white fungus porridge to serve Emperor Jing. She was dressed simply and only wore a jade belt to show her extraordinary status.
Emperor Jing was approving the memorial, but he really had a headache. Concubine Luo pinched his head for him, and he closed his eyes and said:
"Thanks to your nephew today, if it weren't for him, I would probably ..."
Concubine Luo quickly covered Emperor Jing's mouth: "What nonsense you are talking about is clearly because you are blessed! Zhang'er is just taking advantage of the situation!"
Emperor Jing breathed a sigh of relief: "Originally, I planned to marry Xin Yi to him, but wars have broken out in recent years..."
At this point, Emperor Jing took hold of Concubine Luo's wrist and led her to him. , holding her palm: "I can't help King Yi!"
