Chapter 331 The evil spirit that is completely unscrupulous

The third update is here, let me explain that the scenes of this battle are basically in chronological order, and this chapter is not an interstitial.

———

"Search! Search for me! Search for our family carefully! If you turn over the Cining Palace, you have to find someone!" Wang Yue's hysterical roar echoed in the Cining Palace. This scene was quite similar to the scene in the Ganqing Palace a few months ago.

Li Zhong and the strong eunuchs he brought were rummaging through boxes and cabinets in Cining Palace. They searched in great detail, and they didn't even let go of the ground. They kept knocking and tentatively trying to find out the very likely authentic place.

The emperor suddenly disappeared from Kunning Palace and appeared in the West Garden. With the four gates of the Forbidden City closed, it was unrealistic for him to get out. The biggest possibility was that there was such an authentic tunnel connecting the Forbidden City and the West Garden.

This kind of thing does not exceed Wang Yue's understanding. Authenticity has existed since ancient times. Not to mention the imperial palace, even officials, many people have left such a way out in their mansions, ready to use it on the day of their escape. Zhenbaozhai's engineering team is efficient and has good skills. After struggling in the Forbidden City for several months, it is not difficult to understand if they want to dig an authenticity.

What really puzzled the old eunuch was how Xie Hong thought of digging this tunnel and why? The distance from the Forbidden City to Xiyuan is not short. If you want to complete such a large project in August, it must have been done at the beginning of the repair work.

But at that time, Xie Hong and the Emperor still had the upper hand in the court. Except for Liu Daxia occasionally jumping around and clamoring to use force, although the adults in the court were dissatisfied with Xie Hong, the situation was actually quite calm.

What's more, the proposal of the emperor moving to Xiyuan and then repairing the Forbidden City was proposed earlier, as Zhenbaozhai was preparing to open.

What did Xie Hong think about it? He actually planned to dig a tunnel at that time? Could he really have the ability to calculate and predict the situation today?

You know, the major event that was planned today, let alone outsiders, even Wang Yue and other direct participants were caught in ignorantly. If it weren't for the many accidental factors, who would have expected that the foreign court would take such fierce means to persuade the emperor?

Therefore, although it was not surprising to Xie Hong's methods, Wang Yue still did not understand Xie Hong's foresight. Moreover, when he arrived at Cining Palace, something even more surprising happened, and the empress dowager disappeared!

Although the old eunuch was still roaring, he knew very well that everything was over. Without the queen mother, it would be impossible for all the imperial guards to obey the orders and raise their swords toward the emperor.

The Sili Supervisor? It seems amazing, but after all, all the authority of the eunuchs comes from the emperor, and the eunuchs are just executing on their behalf.

Wang Yue knew very well that a few confidants might follow him one by one, but the vast majority of the imperial guards and most generals and generals would not be able to support a eunuch wholeheartedly, unless the eunuch stood behind him! And in the Forbidden City, the only person who could compete with the emperor in terms of status was the queen mother.

His eyes had already started to turn black, and the shouts of long live on the south side were rising and falling. Obviously, Xie Hong had already gained the upper hand in all aspects. As for how he did it and how he used a group of boy scouts to defeat the two elite battalions of the imperial guards, Wang Yue had no idea at all.

That man is a monster. Since he can start planning a few months ago, since he can dig a tunnel to let the emperor escape from his control; since he can subdue the mechanism and blow up Xihuamen; since... then, is it rare for him to use some means to defeat the imperial guards? Hehe, if our family suffers too much, it will not be rare and strange.

It is obvious now that since there is no one in the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager must have avoided it in advance. What are the means to use...

"Eunuch Li, the Empress Dowager really didn't go out. I have been guarding outside the gate and never slacked off for a moment..." Like the Ganqing Palace, Wang Yue also had eyeliners in Cining Palace. At this time, the eyeliners were being asked by Li Zhong's neck. Li Zhong's face turned pale and his expression was ferocious and terrifying. He obviously began to enter a state of madness.

"Then tell our family that since the Empress Dowager has not gone out, where is she now? Where is she?" Li Zhong roared.

"I..." The eyeliner was already scared. He was just an eyeliner. How could he know such a profound problem?

"Lao Li, don't yell at him. It's useless. Go outside and see if the people who go to Kunning Palace and Renshou Palace are back?" Wang Yue said suddenly.

"Yes..." In despair, Li Zhong still retained a ray of rationality. Although Wang Yue's broken ship was about to sink, he could not get down now. He either sank with him or tried hard to make the ship float again.

There is an empress in Kunning Palace. Although she is just a new job, she is also a status after all. With the emperor's temperament, she should not care about the empress when she is in a real way, right? Besides, in addition to the empress and the empress dowager, there is also the empress dowager. The identities of these two women are always comparable to one empress dowager, right?

"Eunuch Wang, Eunuch Li, actually..." After hearing this, the eyeliner hesitated and spoke.

"Hmm? Just say what you have!" Wang Yue felt a chill in his heart again. Li Zhong had been questioned for a long time. What he said at this time obviously would not be good news.

"Although the Empress Dowager did not go out, the Empress Dowager came. He should have been in Cining Palace..."

"What?" Another bolt from the blue made the two eunuchs slashed, both of which were burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. Wang Yue felt so angry that he was so angry. He was indeed a monster. Even such a thing was ahead!

The two empress dowagers obviously got to know each other. But how could that be possible? Wang Yue knew the two personalities very well. They were both very dignified women. Even if Zhengde came to persuade him personally, the crisis would be coming outside. I am afraid that he might not be able to persuade him. Besides, let’s let the two learn to know each other? The empress dowager even came to the Renshou Palace to learn from...

Moreover, what did that monster treat the Forbidden City as? How many tunnels did he dig! Wang Yue was crying but not tears. This was the emperor's residence, not the ridge of the field where sweet potatoes were planted...

"Two father-in-law, it's not good. There is no one in Kunning Palace, and the queen is gone!" The two empress dowagers said in a daze. The two eunuchs looked at each other speechlessly. At this moment, the people who went to Kunning Palace also came back, bringing the last bad news.

"Monster... how did he do it?" Li Zhong's expression was no longer ferocious. Wang Yue was even more ten years older, and his face turned completely gray in an instant. He muttered helplessly, feeling puzzled.

Death is dead.

The last straw had disappeared, and the noise that was ringing outside the Cining Palace also told him another fact: the Warriors' camp was defeated, and the emperor's troops were coming to the Cining Palace. Not to mention looking for the Empress Dowager, he was held hostage to him now, and there was no time to escape.

So, he no longer considered his fate or something. He was confused. How did Xie Hong do all this? If he couldn't figure it out, he would die with his eyes open!

His wish was fulfilled because the eyeliner suddenly added another sentence, with the Qingming Festival before the old eunuch's death, he suddenly realized it.

"In addition to the Empress Dowager, there is also Princess Yongfu..."

"Hehe..." Wang Yue suddenly laughed, his voice hoarse, like metal rubbing, and it looked gloomy and terrifying in the quiet Cining Palace.

"Eunuch Wang, let's go to the Imperial Horse Supervision immediately and go to Donghuamen! There is still..." Li Zhong still refused to give up. Just a few hours ago, he was still celebrating the upcoming victory. Why is it a dead end all of a sudden? He didn't understand, nor did he want to understand. Such a gap is really hard to accept.

"It's useless, that monster is completely unscrupulous. Even Princess Yongfu has used this chess game. How can we leave that gap for us to drill?" Wang Yue shook his head dejectedly, but his thoughts were clearer than usual.

The emperor's inability to persuade the empress dowager does not mean that no one can persuade the empress dowager. As long as Princess Yongfu uses his ultimate move, the empress dowager will probably be shaken. Princess Yongfu somehow told the empress to move. The two girls came together, and the two empress dowagers naturally understood the seriousness of the situation, so...

"Besides, even if he didn't have the idea of ​​attacking the Imperial Horse Prison, our messenger had been sent out long ago, and no soldiers had arrived yet. Now, the Warriors' camp has been completely defeated, and there is also a Tengxiang Right Guard. The defeated soldiers ran all over the Forbidden City. Other troops would not come just now, and they would not come even more. Even if they come, hehe, it was not for our family to serve, but for our family to live!"

As he said that, he sneered again: "It is not unfair to defeat such a monster. However, the adults in the outer court are all the ones who are planning to do their own people. After today, we will see how they ended. Hey, it's a pity that our family won't see that scene anymore. What a pity..."

Seeing that Wang Yue had no fighting spirit, the last momentum that Li Zhong had bulged was also leaked.

Wang Yue also knew that the messenger who asked for help from the outside court had been sent out long ago. The main force of the Beijing camp was so close to the Forbidden City, but the reinforcements had not arrived. Instead, he could faintly hear the sound of cannons coming from the south... It was obvious that the Beijing camp had already begun to siege the Military Weapons Division, for the sake of Li Zhong, who also understood what was the wealth and craftsmen inside.

But why don’t these guys think about it? After the situation in the Forbidden City is out of control, how can they last forever even if they really seize the Military Equipment Department? The overall situation is the most important thing. The scholars and officials often talk about this sentence, but whenever it comes to a critical moment, these hypocritical guys are just right and wrong, thinking about their own interests.

"What the Prince Wang said is, let's be in the underworld, let's see how they ended, hahaha..." Li Zhong stopped suppressing his emotions, his legs became weak, and he collapsed on the ground, laughing out loud.

The eunuchs who were originally following the two eunuchs were aware of the situation. The trees fell and the money scattered. Seeing that the building was about to collapse, these people stopped searching for the tunnels. They all turned around and escaped from the Cining Palace and disappeared into the night.

Although you may still be caught and settled in the future, you can escape for a while. Staying with Wang Yue is dead, and it is light to cut into pieces. Didn’t you hear the shouts outside? The emperor wants to avenge Emperor Xiaozong. In the Forbidden City, who else can harm Emperor Xiaozong except Wang Yue?

Even if they are liquidated in the future, it will be better than being buried with them now. You know, the emperor is now killing and has even taken the opportunity to take action personally. The defeated soldiers have been shouting, "The emperor is here"!

So, when Ma Yongcheng led the Guards and rushed into Cining Palace, he only saw two eunuchs in the huge palace. However, he was not disappointed, because the arrest of these two eunuchs represented the final victory of the Battle of Forbidden City.
