Chapter 121 The resentful spirit who died in vain in Dazheng Palace?

Two hours ago.

The fool's roar echoed throughout Yongshou's bed.

"There is a thief!"

Ying Chengyu subconsciously grabbed the dagger on the pillow with his right hand, his eyes suddenly opened, his body rolled to the left, and his sharp eyes glanced left and right. go.

Seeing that there was no one else nearby, Ying Chengyu let out the breath he had been holding in his chest since he woke up and listened to his crazy heartbeat.

“Hoo~~”

“My lord!” The eighth husband pushed open the door and said quickly: “Someone threw a haystack in from outside the palace wall!”

"Go and have a look!" Ying Chengyu stood up, grabbed the sword in his right hand, and walked out of the bedroom quickly.

As soon as we arrived in the courtyard, a rocket crossed the palace wall and landed on the haystack.

The flames rise!

A trace of astonishment appeared in Ying Chengyu's eyes: "How dare they do this!"

"How could they do this?"

If Ying Chengyu died in Yongcheng, what would happen if he died in Yongcheng? Lao Ai's plan can no longer be realized.

It is not that Ying Chengyu has not considered the possibility of Lao Ai going crazy. He used Xiong Mao's protection to repeatedly provoke Lao Ai just to test Lao Ai's bottom line.

Since Lao Ai endured Ying Chengyu's crazy attempts to commit suicide, why did he attack tonight?

Hachifu quickly ran to a bundle of hay that had not yet ignited, sniffed it closely, and immediately reported with an ugly face:

“No wonder it caught fire so quickly, it was tung oil. The smell!”

“My lord, the other party may have come here to burn Yongshou’s bed tonight!”

Looking at the haystacks that were burning one after another and the haystacks that were ignited. In the palace, Ying Chengyu frowned and thought: "If they want to kill me, they should not use this method."

Lao Ai could have poisoned Ying Chengyu, or assassinated him while Ying Chengyu was out of the city.

Either one is easier to defend than burning Yongshuo.

After all, Yongshou’s bedchamber is not as dense and compact as the tube towers of later generations. Each temple of Yongshou’s bedchamber is independent.

Especially the distance between the main halls is more than two feet.

If Ying Chenglong was really burned to death in Yongshou's bed, no one would think that Ying Chenglong died accidentally!

In this case, why did Lao Ai kill Ying Chenglong without knowing the fire?

Everyone is unreasonable!

Su Jiao threw his hands away in anger: "Your Majesty, these people really have the guts to harm you in Yong Palace!"

"Let me lead the army to kill you!"

Ying Chengyu thought thoughtfully: "Perhaps what they want is for you to rush out!"

"Yong Shou must have deployed a large number of troops outside his bed."

"Even if we all rush out, we can't be our opponent."

Su Jiao is speechless. .

Even though Su Jiao was very confident in his own and Pao Ze's strength, it was difficult for him to defeat four with two fists. Their troops were still too few.

Bafu said in a deep voice: "If the head of the family is worried about Su Bugeng's troops being exposed, we can protect the head of the family and kill him."

"Su Bugeng and others can follow the tunnel to other places to avoid the flames for the time being."

Su Jiao nodded repeatedly: "We have dug out several exits. Your Majesty, please feel free to escape. There is no need to worry about me. Wait.”

This seems to be the most secure method.

But Ying Chengyu couldn't agree.

Ying Chengyu didn’t think Lao Ai could bear the result of his death in Yong Shou’s bed.

This fire is most likely aimed at Su Jiao and others.

If Ying Chengyu fled and Su Jiao and others took refuge in the tunnel, how could Lao Ai not use the detection dogs to track Su Jiao and others along the tunnel?

As a result, Ying Chengyu’s long planning will be in vain, and a large number of loyal soldiers will be lost!

Looking at the main road leading from Gaomen to the back dormitory, Ying Chengyu felt cruel in his heart and said in a deep voice: "It's not the time to escape yet."

"Order ! ”

"All the soldiers threw the silk cloth into the water and covered their mouths and noses with the wet silk cloth."

"Throw all the unlit haystacks into the palaces on both sides, leaving a passage."

"Extinguish all the flames on the right side of the front yard, chop off the wood in the palace and build a ladder as soon as possible!"

There is another tunnel hidden in the front yard.

If Ying Chengyuan’s judgment is wrong and Lao Ai is really here to take his life tonight, then that tunnel is Ying Chengyuan’s life passage!

The eighth husband looked astonished, but he did not question it. He just bowed his hands and said, "Wei!"

Su Jiao responded and rushed out.

But Ying Chengyu grabbed Su Jiao's arm: "Su Bugeng, just leave the matter of diverting the fire to the soldiers."

"Today my opponent has bullied me. Go up and burn my residence with fire. What do you think I should do?"

Su Jiao was stunned for a moment and shouted angrily: "Since the enemy has come to attack the door, we should naturally fight back."< br>

"Not only must we fight back, but we must fight back even harder!"

Ying Chengxuan said coldly: "What Su Bugeng said is what I think."

" Since the enemy set fire to my residence today, the enemy's attention will be focused on me."

"I will stall for time in Yong Shou's bed, and Lao Su will lead the troops to counterattack!"< br>
Su Jiao suddenly handed over his hand: "We have already prepared the holes to attack the tunnel, there is no need for you to put yourself in danger again!"

Ying Chengyu smiled confidently: "Have you forgotten how I attacked the city?"

"When it comes to playing with fire, I think I am no worse than others!"

"Look for It was their biggest mistake to play with fire!”

Su Jiao didn’t quite believe it.

After all, fire and water have no mercy.

Those who play with fire will eventually burn themselves!

But Ying Chengyu was so determined, and Su Jiao knew that he could not persuade him, so he looked at Ying Chengyu firmly: "Half an hour!"

"It only takes half an hour to be humble. ! Please withdraw from the sea of ​​fire quickly after half an hour."

"I will live up to your trust!"

Ying Chengyu bowed to Su Jiao, Naodan and other soldiers. : "Thank you for your help."

"After this battle, I will be very grateful!"

Bodan and other soldiers returned the gift and ran to his right bed with full of anger.

Watching all the reinforcements rushing into the right bed, Ying Chengyu looked at his soldiers: "Continue to control the fire!"

Bales of unlit hay were thrown into the main hall. , and even threw it into the right bed.

A group of soldiers did not put out the fire, but only controlled the direction of the fire's spread.

All sleeping halls and court halls were lit by flames.

Looking from outside the palace, the flames in Yongshou’s bedroom have already reached the sky!

However, only a few gates in the Yanlu area were set on fire, and it remained generally safe.

"Ahem~" Half an hour later, the eighth husband coughed and ran to Ying Chengyu, and said anxiously: "Master, even if the fire has not spread, there is too much smoke in the palace."

“The appointed time has come, let me protect the master and rush out!”

Ying Chengyu also felt the heat in his breath burning his trachea.

But Ying Chengyu knew better that half an hour was far from enough time for Su Jiao's troops to complete their counterattack before evacuating.

Looking at the sea of ​​​​fire that intensified and even spread to Yan Road, Ying Chengyuan said in a deep voice: "Turn to the front yard!"

Run to the front yard along Yan Road, Ying Chengyuan ran to the front yard. It turned out that the fire in the front yard was much smaller than the three yards behind.

Several soldiers were waving copper shovels to extinguish the flames in the knife and pen room.

Hearing that Ying Chengyu had arrived, the fool said happily in a low voice: "Master, I just went down to the tunnel to take a look, and the tunnel is still safe!"

Ying Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief, "Good!"

"Protect the ladder. If the fire suddenly rises, immediately climb out of the palace wall along the ladder." "If the guards outside the wall attack and kill, immediately escape along the tunnel in the front yard!"

< br>
All the soldiers responded solemnly: "Wei!"

Just at this moment, Sun Xina's "panicked" cry sounded from outside Gaomen, and the corners of Ying Chengyu's mouth slightly raised: "Put out the fire!"

...

Just before Ying Chengyu While crossing Yan Road to move to a safe area, Su Jiao and other soldiers were full of anger and crawled along the tunnel to the west.

Although they are no longer under Ying Chengyu, they still regard Ying Chengyu as their general.

Now the enemy army is attacking our coach. As the coach's confidants, they cannot protect the coach, and they don't even know whether the coach is alive or dead.

How can they feel better?

Even the speed of crawling in the tunnel is much faster than usual.

Suddenly, Coodan stopped at a dead end.

Touching the mark made of stone on the wall, Naodan reminded in a low voice: "We have arrived at Dazheng Palace."

The breathing sounds of all the soldiers deliberately lowered their breathing.

Su Jiao pushed the coward away, pulled out the dagger from his leg and stood at the front of the dead end. He looked at all the people behind him and said in a deep voice: "In this battle, there will be a narrow escape from death!"

"Everyone knows what Lord Chang'an is like. He will never be stingy with us."

"If you can come back alive, you will have a bright future."

"Even if you die in this battle, Lord Chang'an will not treat you lightly. Family members."

"If there are people who dare not die, or feel that they cannot commit suicide before being captured, I don't blame you."

"Retreat first and don't participate in this battle. It's the same as serving your Majesty again when the war comes."

"But if you are captured because you are afraid of death, or even say something after being captured... ...The three tribes are in danger!"

Su Jiao said seriously: "Those who want to retreat, retreat quickly!"

The thick darkness made it impossible for Su Jiao to see the people behind him. action.

Ke Sujiao also did not hear any sound of clothes rubbing against the ground.

Su Jiao smiled unconsciously and said in a warm voice:

"Su go first!"

After saying that, Su Jiao carefully dug the soil above his head with his dagger.

After a while, a ray of moonlight finally spilled into the tunnel along the gap.

Su Jiao sped up, cleared all the soil near the tunnel entrance, and carefully looked around.

After observing for a while, Su Jiao made a gesture to the coward, then quietly climbed out of the cave, using the cover of the grass to sneak towards a group of eunuchs nearby.

Bodan and Zhang Xiao took their positions at the same time. The three of them looked at each other and nodded, then suddenly pounced like tigers and leopards.

The dagger in his right hand stabbed diagonally along the back of a eunuch's neck, directly smashing the man's brain. His left hand had already covered the mouth of another eunuch at the same time.

Controlling the eunuch's exclamations, Su Jiao pulled out the dagger with his brain still attached, and stabbed the man's neck steadily and hard!

In less than four seconds, a group of eunuchs had died at the hands of Su Jiao and three others!

He pulled the five people into the grass and poured some oil around them. Naodan and Zhang Xiao moved further away, while Su Jiao returned to the entrance of the cave and knocked on the ground in rhythm.

Hearing the knocking sound, the soldiers quickly climbed out of the pit, and every five soldiers automatically formed a group.

Each warrior wears leather armor, holds a long sword in his right hand, and carries a backpack on his back.

The basket is filled with oil jars!

Su Jiao also stuffed the dagger into his boots, picked up his backpack, held a long sword, looked at the more than 400 robes squatting in front of him, and lowered his voice and ordered:

"Half a quarter of an hour! We only have half a quarter of an hour!"

"After half a quarter of an hour, the tunnel will be sealed. Those who fail to return will be recorded in the book. Please be kind to all your family members."

More than four hundred soldiers raised their hands together and opened a narrow-mouthed pottery bottle with a large belly hanging outside the backpack.

The pungent black oil slowly flowed down the bottle mouth and fell to the ground, also dripping on themselves.

Everyone responded with actions.

If they fail to return in time, the oil on their bodies will be enough to kill them in the Dazheng Palace!

Su Jiao solemnly bowed his hands: "May you all return in triumph!"

"Come out!"

The soldiers bowed their hands and saluted again, forming a group and marching along the planned route He ran wildly in the direction, and when he encountered a palace, he sprinkled the oil in the jar onto its wooden structure.

Hundreds of people suddenly appeared in the harem, and they were still walking quickly in the harem, and the volume could not be controlled at all!

After a while, a burst of barking broke the quiet night sky.

“Woof, woof, woof!”

After the barking, waves of exclamations sounded one after another.

“There are thieves!”

“Blow the horn and gather the guards!”

"Kill!"

Subconsciously looking at the direction of the noise, Su Jiao ordered in a low voice: "No need to worry about the sound, speed up!"

However, as soon as the order was given, Su Jiao He suddenly stopped, his eyes full of shock.

Just because he heard a baby crying!

“Wow~ahhh~wow!”

After a few breaths, Su Jiao looked at Nao Dan in disbelief and asked: "Did you hear that?"

Nao Dan blinked: "Did you hear that?"

"Ah, General "You mean that cry?"

"I heard it, wasn't it the baby's cry?"

Su Jiao's eyes widened even more.

Why are you so relaxed?

This is the harem of Dazheng Palace, not Xianyang Palace!

There is no King of Qin in the Dazheng Palace, no previous king, and no man who is qualified to visit the women in the palace.

How could there be a baby in Dazheng Palace!

After several hesitations, Su Jiao ordered in a low voice: "Go and have a look!"

Suppressing their footsteps, Su Jiao and others quickly approached the dormitory.

Pricking the silk cloth with a dagger, Su Jiao saw two babies crying loudly on the soft couch. There was also a palace maid beside them who was busy coaxing the children.

Looking at the two babies, Su Jiao was greatly shocked.

There can be no baby in Dazheng Palace.

The two children in front of me...are they the babies of resentful spirits who died in vain in Dazheng Palace?

In an instant, Su Jiao felt cold all over, and his hands and feet were cold.

"Su Bugeng?" Naodan asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"

Su Jiao felt relieved and shook his head: "It's okay!"

Looking at the two babies for the last time in fear, Su Jiao directly opened all the oil jars in the backpack!

If you are truly a wraith, I will burn this prison that binds you.

I just ask you not to come looking for me at night!

With oil sprinkled all around the palace, Su Jiao calculated the time in his mind and shouted in a low voice: "Retreat!"

Following the way they came, Su Jiao and the others sped up. The feet rush forward quickly.

However, as soon as he arrived near the tunnel exit, Su Jiao saw many eunuchs and guards running towards here.

“The thief is here!”

"Come quickly, stop them!"

"All the thieves are running in this direction. Go and report to Zogo and ask Zogo to dispatch all the palace guards here!"

Su Jiao's eyes narrowed, he took off his backpack and threw it at an oncoming eunuch.

“Kill!”

While roaring, Su Jiao’s sword pierced the oil jar and sank deeply into the eunuch’s heart.

However, after this eunuch, thousands of eunuchs, eunuchs, guards and retainers are swarming in!
