Zhu Di, who had made the whole Prince Yan's palace a mess because of being knocked on the door by an ordinary man, was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. At this time, Ximen Qing, who was regarded as an invisible man, was surprised to see that in his opinion, he was truly invisible.
That person, the person who suddenly appeared behind Xia Xun like a ghost.
An ordinary person can bring up a breeze by waving his palm, and the head is a very sensitive place, so a person can detect it, but that person's palm was as fast as a spark, but it didn't have a trace of fireworks. This palm was nothing.
It hit the back of Xia Xun's head, and Xia Xun didn't even notice that there was someone behind him. Such a palm technique must have developed the palm strength to the extreme level of femininity. He could smash the green bricks through the tofu with one palm and leave the tofu intact.
.
If his palm had hit hard, Xia Xun's brain would have looked normal, but his brain would have been rotted into a pot of porridge, and he would have died instantly without any physical symptoms. This man's martial arts was so good! Ximen Qing saw his movements.
It was clear that I felt a cold wind blowing from the back of my head.
This man wears a pair of green cloth boots and a white robe of an eunuch. He is no more than thirty years old. He is tall, has heavy eyebrows, a swarthy complexion, slightly high eyebrow arch, slightly sunken eyes, one pair of bright eyes, and a chin.
He was naked but without a beard. He retracted his palm, but did not leave Xia Xun's side, just stood there quietly.
Xia Xun had no fear on his face, and just repeated what he had just said to the guard guarding the gate, and then said: "It's just that the military academy guarding the gate refused to believe what the civilians said, and this matter really couldn't be delayed. The civilians had no choice but to
I can only come to this last resort, and please forgive me, the prince, and please forgive me, the princess."
Xu Ming'er blinked and thought in her mind: "Is what this guy said this time true or false?"
After Zhu Di heard this, his angry expression immediately disappeared and his expression became solemn. He knew Xia Xun's identity. Looking at Xia Xun's current appearance, he was conscious and articulate, and he definitely did not look like a mentally disturbed person.
He walked slowly in the palace for a moment, then turned to look at his wife.
Concubine Xu said: "My lord, this matter is of great importance. I would rather believe that it exists than that it does not exist."
Zhu Di nodded and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Neng, have you heard everything?"
Zhu Qianhu, wearing armor all over his body, cupped his fists and saluted: "I heard this from my humble position."
Zhu Di said: "Very good, you go with him, arrest those people immediately, and at the same time notify the Criminal Investigation Department to investigate the case strictly."
Although the matter was urgent and Zhu Di dispatched his troops, it was not war time at this moment. All military, political and judicial affairs in Peiping were managed by the local government. As a prince, it was not easy for him to get ahead of himself. On this point, he had always paid great attention to it.
We don't rely on the prince's power to suppress people, so as not to give others any clues. Therefore, this matter cannot be discussed, but we have to notify the Prosecution and Prosecution Bureau, and they will try it according to the law.
The person Zhu Di was referring to was Ximen Qing. Zhu Neng agreed. Seeing that Ximen Qing was still there in a daze, he grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the palace.
Xia Xun asked: "Your Majesty, where are the common people?"
Zhu Di smiled deeply: "You, please stay in my palace for now. If this matter is proven to be true, he will be rewarded if he has merit; if it is false and he lied about the military situation, he is guilty and should be punished! Sanbao, take him down and lock him up first."
As soon as Zhu Di finished speaking, two fierce warriors strode towards Xia Xun. The eunuch behind Xia Xun bowed slightly to Zhu Di and said in a voice with a southern accent: "Yes."
Only then did Xia Xun realize that there was someone behind him, and he couldn't help being startled. Although he was frightened, he didn't expect how thunderous the name was.
"Prince Yan's Mansion was ordered to take people. The people inside opened the door and walked out one by one. There must be no mistakes!"
A private house was surrounded by people, with armed men and horses outside the door, and there was a chilling atmosphere in the falling snow at night.
Seeing this scene, a member of the White Lotus Sect who was hiding in the distance said to Peng Ziqi: "Master Peng, the officers and soldiers have already come forward. It is inconvenient for us to stay here for a long time and we must withdraw immediately."
When the people in Shiribashi found out that the news was leaked, they didn't have time to complain. They immediately took action and notified all personnel in advance to move their positions. But in fact, without Lakshen, they couldn't move at all in Peking. Even Dai Yubin only stayed in Peking when he was a child.
However, the appearance of Peiping has changed over the years, and they have no one to help them locally, so they can't go anywhere. In addition, it's getting late, this is a border town, the city gates are closed early, and there is a curfew after the city is closed.
, then all we can do is sit back and wait for death.
There is no hope of escape, and there is no way out. Shirebari has smashed bottles and cans, and is ready to defect to the Mongolian Khan lightly at any time! Others worry about defeat before thinking about victory, but he fights with his back to the wall and leaves no room for anything. What if?
If he goes back like this, he, the leader, will probably be hacked to death by the desperate tribesmen.
Therefore, Shiriba Ri and Dai Yubin, who were anxious to jump over the wall, discussed and decided to take the risk and sneak into Prince Yan's Mansion. Now, only if they successfully blow up Prince Yan's Mansion and create a massacre in Peiping, would their trip not be in vain and they would have the opportunity to take advantage of it.
They fled back amid the chaos in the city. So they immediately rushed to the leather goods shop, took Xirigoulige, who had regained a little energy, and left in a hurry.
The White Lotus Sect's organization in Peiping is just a civilian gang. They dare not openly fight with people with swords and guns, not to mention whether they have the ability. Even if they have the ability, and this time they are helping government officers and soldiers.
After capturing the foreign captives, they would inevitably come into official sight, so they could only do it secretly.
Peng Ziqi didn't take action. There were so many people on the other side that she couldn't control them by herself, so she just followed these people secretly, trying to find out where they were going. When the officers and soldiers arrived, she would be able to capture them naturally. She didn't want these people to go further and further into the distance.
Arriving near a desolate puddle in Xicheng, I didn't know what I was doing, but after a while I disappeared.
Peng Ziqi was shocked, and quickly turned over to take a look, only to find that it was a smelly drainage pipe. It was really difficult for a girl to get into this dirty place. Besides, she didn't bring any fire tools.
Unable to get into this dark cave, she had no choice but to rush back quickly to keep an eye on those subordinates who had not had time to notify Shirebari to come and join him because he was in such a hurry.
As soon as the officers and soldiers led by Ximen Qing arrived, Peng Ziqi immediately explained the situation to them, and finally came to the rescue of these Mongolian hiding places.
The yard was dark, and the lamp that was still on in the room was extinguished. The flag officer shouted three times, but there was no answer in the yard. He immediately waved his hand, and the torch flew into the house, followed closely.
Soldiers holding spears, shields and knives surged in like a wave. The soldiers brought out by King Zhu Di of Yan were good at defending and even better at attacking. They were full of murderous intent. How could they give you a second chance?
The people in the room finally made a statement and began to resist with various simple weapons. The officers and soldiers who rushed in methodically began to kill people in an orderly manner. They maintained absolute calm. Although they were all extremely brave and invulnerable with swords and guns,
They are indeed very calm.
When the soldiers were in close combat, they had no time to resist the weapons of the grid. They turned a blind eye and gave full trust to their comrades. They never took a step back to avoid flaws in their formation. The weapons in their hands only coldly greeted the enemy's vital points.
This kind of fight usually determines life and death in three moves and two moves.
In less than half a stick of incense, King Yan's guards began to clean the battlefield. The bloody corpses were brought out one after another. None of the Mongolians hiding in the house were alive. These people who were personally selected by Shirebari did indeed do it.
The standard for a dead soldier is to rather die than surrender and never surrender.
The same scene was played out in another house, but the difference was that the Meng people hiding in the house could not restrain themselves from attacking this place. Their active attack was exactly what the Yan King's guards were waiting for.
, in an open place, it is easier for them to take advantage of cooperative combat.
The wild sword light flickered like fireflies under the torch, the figures flashed horribly, the clang of gold and iron was heard, the sound of sharp blades cutting into human bodies and the uncontrollable screams of pain were heard. A person was killed
The large shield opened the legs of the stool, and the spear hit the thigh. Then the chest and abdomen were torn open with a single knife. The inside and six internal organs were squeezed out. The man was spinning around, howling miserably, and was mercilessly hit by the iron-clad shield.
His head was smashed to pieces, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
Steady and powerful steps stepped on his body, moving in an orderly manner, and once again carried out a surrounding attack on the next person. When the battle here ended, the guards of the Yan Palace captured three people alive, two of whom were seriously injured and one was slightly injured.
was captured in time.
Dai Yubin and the others were lucky. The drainage pipes in Prince Yan's Mansion were still built during the Yuan Dynasty without any modifications. They wore leather jackets, leather trousers and spiked shoes, and used wooden sticks to assist them. They held torches and shuttled through the underground cave-like place.
The world is not lost.
This place that no one has visited for decades or hundreds of years is actually full of creatures, including rats, cockroaches, bed bugs, and all kinds of garbage. Although this pipe is mainly used to discharge rainwater rather than domestic water, its filthiness can be imagined.
You know, even with thick towels covering their faces, they could smell the stinking smell. Fortunately, it was winter, so they were dressed so tightly that it wouldn't stifle them.
"Here, go this way..."
Dai Yubin looked at the drawings under the torch, then looked at the distinctively piled and protruding stone signs on the wall, and pointed to one of the four deep caves and said.
From the Prince Yan's Mansion, news came back one after another urgently. Judging from the news that these people had all the information, what Xia Xun said was indeed true.
Zhu Di murmured: "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I would sleep on a pile of gunpowder for more than ten years. Before the Yuan Dynasty left, he would actually bury such a big disaster under the palace."
Zhang Yu, the commander of the left guard of King Yan's three guards, who came after hearing the news, said: "Your Majesty, the lowly men and horses have followed the prince's instructions and surrounded the entire palace city, and personally selected the most elite group of troops to garrison the palace city."
"Huh? It turns out that what that stinky guy said this time is true." Ming'er, who had been listening to the news, rolled her eyes and walked out quietly.
Concubine Xu didn't notice her sister leaving, and said to her husband with concern: "Your Majesty, the news from Xia Xun's friends said that a group of Mongols had already gotten into the drainage pipe. There is no guarantee that they will not succeed. It is too dangerous here.
Your Majesty should gather all the people in the palace and stay at the Chief Envoy's Yamen for a while until these gangsters are caught."
Zhu Di nodded and said: "What my beloved concubine said is reasonable. I will immediately order everyone in the harem to evacuate." His heart moved, and suddenly he thought of something, and ordered Zhang Yu: "That Naren Tuoya is the maid of the front left hall, right? Left.
The palace should strengthen its vigilance and focus on arranging manpower. Remember, place the manpower in a dark place, and then take action after they activate the mechanism."
Zhang Yu said in surprise: "Your Majesty, why is this?"
Zhu Di said solemnly: "We must use them to find the entrance to the secret passage. Otherwise, even if we kill them, the disaster will not be eliminated. How can I live in peace?"
