Seventy-seven, the black clouds are crushing the city and want to destroy it

There were crowds of people, and some people were shouting "Duke of the Kingdom - Duke of the Kingdom -". They were far away, and the voice was rapid, and their anxiety was revealed. There were continuous sounds of knocking on the door. This was naturally called Zhou Xuan, who was named Pingnan County Prince. There were still many people in the mansion who were not used to calling him, and they were still called him Duke of the Kingdom.

Zhou Xuan turned over and got out of bed, put on his clothes while waving his shoes, and came to the east building ring corridor. At this time, the bright moon was setting, and there was a red light flashing in the sky to the east, unlike the sunrise. Zhou Xuan was on the second floor, which was not enough to see the distance, and he didn't understand what the red light was.

The sound of shooting the door outside the Tongque Pavilion was even more urgent, and the old Dong was shouting: "Who is it?"

People outside said, "Yi's commander Fan Zao walked and urgently asked for the Duke of the State. No, please see the Prince of Pingnan."

Fan Zaixing was a brave general of the Fenghua army brought from Jiangzhou at the beginning of the year of Zhou Xuan. He was the nephew of Judge Fan. He led 500 Fenghua elite troops to protect Zhou Xuan and was stationed on the banks of Bixi, Houyuan.

Zhou Xuan asked loudly on the railing: "Person Fan, what's the urgent matter?"

When Fan Zaixing heard Zhou Xuan's voice, he quickly said: "Duke, the riots in the capital have begun. It should be that King Jing's party is causing trouble. Our five hundred soldiers are on standby. Please make an announcement from the country."

Zhou Xuan asked: "Where is a fire in the city?"

This time it was Gu Changshi's voice: "Report to the prince, it's around Qingxifang."

Zhou Xuan immediately remembered what he said to Wang Shizhang last evening. He originally suggested that Wang Shizhang prepare well and go to the Weixuan Mansion in Qingxifang the next night to set fire to rescue people. Now the fire in Qingxifang is very likely that Wang Shizhang is eager to save his daughter and takes action first. The weather is hot and dry, and the fire is getting bigger and bigger. This caught Zhou Xuan off guard. During this extraordinary period, both the Eastern Palace and King Jing were tense and about to break out, but suddenly a fire in the city was raging. King Jing’s party and the Eastern Palace did not understand the truth. They would definitely think that the other party took the lead and would definitely organize troops to enter the palace immediately. This was really a coup caused by a salt merchant.

Zhou Xuan walked downstairs, and Lao Dong had already opened the door of the museum. Fan Zao walked outside the door, and Gu Changshi looked nervous.

Lin Hanyun looked under the railing and shouted: "Brother Zhou Xuan——"

Zhou Xuan turned around and said, "Hanyun, go and be with Sister Daoyun. If it's okay, I'll come."

Zhou Xuan ordered Gu Changshi to inform the girls of Qin Qu, asking them not to panic and stay in the mansion and not to go out. He and Xiaowei Fan strode to the Houyuan Polo Stadium, and saw five hundred Fenghua soldiers standing in the field under the leadership of five deputy lieutenants, carrying swords, long spears, soft armor, and silently holding. Each person stood his own mounts. The nostrils of five hundred war horses wearing horses covered in horses were like a huge dormant beast breathing.

Zhou Xuan said in a deep voice: "The good men in Jiangzhou, support the new emperor and make achievements today."

Five hundred people raised their spears together, like the steel forest that grew suddenly. Although there was no shocking cry, the cold and silent power was even more intimidating.

The three cynical and four cynical arrived. The three cynical was still dressed in normal clothes, with a wide sword on his back, leading his jujube horse. However, the four cynical got a light armor from somewhere. When they were worn, the soft breasts of the breasts covered the pair of big breasts. The mount was Lin Ning's jujube horse. The white-nosed mule she used to ride died at the beginning of the year.

Zhou Xuan's personal soldiers brought the "Zhaoye Yuhua Cong". Zhou Xuan turned over and ordered three deputy lieutenants of Yi to lead 300 soldiers to protect the prince's mansion. One hundred and fifty of the three hundred soldiers blocked the gate of Xiangluanfang, and the remaining 150 remained in the mansion.

Zhou Xuan, Fan Zhengwei, San Chi, and Si Chi led two hundred soldiers out of the gate of Cuju Garden and went to the imperial city to protect the emperor. As soon as they left Xiangluanfang, someone shouted sharply behind: "Xuan Lang—Xuan Lang—"

Zhou Xuan stepped slowly, and a dark horse behind him rushed up at lightning speed. It was Murong Liusu riding the "Black Rose".

"Lissu, what are you doing here? Go home!"

"No, I want to be with you. I am not a petite lady with no power. I have martial arts skills."

Zhou Xuan turned his head and looked at Murong Liusu. He was wearing a tight warrior uniform and had no time to wear armor. On his waist was the shadow-slide knife that Zhou Xuan gave her. The Damascus sword that Abu gave him with iron-cut like mud--"Poison Dragon".

Zhou Xuan said nothing, signaling Murong Liusu to follow him and rushed towards the imperial city.

Xiangluanfang is about four miles away from the imperial city, and it is a short horse. At this moment, it is light and far away. Zhou Xuan saw that the gate of the imperial city is closed, and he breathes a sigh of relief. As long as King Jing is not snatched into the palace first, King Jing will not be able to turn the sky.

The gate of the Imperial City is under the jurisdiction of the Yulin Guard. On this day, it happened to be the turn of the left Yulin Guard. The commander of the Yulin Guard was under Lin Ji. He recognized that the person who called the door was Zhou Xuan of Pingnan County. He replied on the gate tower: "Why did the prince come here before the sky is clear? According to the rules, the gate of the Imperial City will be opened at the beginning of the Mao hour, and it is the end of the Yin hour. Please wait for two more minutes."

The Eastern Palace, King Jing’s Mansion, and the six ministries are all in the imperial city. The guards are strict and they must be close to the door. Similar to the fish talisman. The imperial city must be opened before the time comes. Without the fish talisman, even if the emperor arrives, the door will not be opened, so the commander of the Zuo Yulin Guard should not open the door.

The Captain Fan, beside Zhou Xuan, suddenly jumped off his horse, lay on the ground and listened carefully, and after a moment of time, he stood up and said, "Prince, there are four groups of soldiers coming towards the imperial city."

This is naturally the military horses of the Eight Guards of Jinling that Huangfu Jixun controlled. If Zhou Xuan was blocked by Huangfu Jixun's large army and horses under the imperial city, the situation would be extremely dangerous.

Zhou Xuan shouted: "King Jing rebelled, and a large group of soldiers were coming to the imperial city. Commander Sun, if you don't open the door, do you want to be a national sinner?"

Commander Sun also saw the fire on Qingxifang, but the responsibility of the city guards opened the door without authorization, and killed Wu mercy, and said anxiously: "Prince, I really can't open the door--"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud shout: "Open the door."

A tall Mingguang Armor general came quickly, and it was Lin Ji, the deputy envoy of the left army of the Yulin Guard.

Commander Sun saw that Shangguan was in the direct line, and he would be subject to anything that happened. He was not a regular person, so he immediately ordered the gate of the imperial city to be opened.

Zhou Xuanxi said: "General Lin, you are here just in time."

Lin Ji clasped his fists and said, "The last time we will follow the prince and protect the emperor and the prince."

The gate of the imperial city was opened. As soon as Zhou Xuan entered the door, he heard a noise from the direction of the palace city ahead. His face changed drastically. Prince Jing’s mansion was in the imperial city. Li Kun could take the initiative to break into the palace city and kidnap the emperor. Not far away, Huangfu Jixun’s large group of troops rushed over. If Li Kun was held hostage by Li Yu, Li Jian and Xiao Zhou, with Huangfu Jixun’s troops, they would be able to control the entire Jinling City.

Although Zhou Xuan had already told Li Jian that he would be wary of Li Kun's sudden rebellion in the imperial city, and that Li Jian would not be unprepared, but the palace city is in full swing now, and the truth is unknown.

Zhou Xuan immediately ordered Lin Ji to close the gate of the imperial city and mobilize the Yulin Guard to guard it, and never let Huangfu Jixun rush in.

The four cynics said: "Master, I will stay."

Zhou Xuan knew her feelings. Huangfu Jixun hated Zhou Xuan first, and the second hated Sinister was Sinister, who kicked him into a concussion. Sinister stayed now, so naturally he planned to capture the thief and capture the king first. If Huangfu Jixun could be killed, Li Kun would be like killing one arm. However, Sinister was good at assassination, and she had no use of this army of thousands of horses.

Zhou Xuan said: "Fourth brother, don't take risks, follow me to the palace to protect the emperor."

Sichi insisted: "I will stay, just enter the palace with the third brother and Mrs. Liusu."

The matter is urgent and there is no need to be more slap. Zhou Xuan said: "Fourth brother, be careful, don't take risks. We are not at a disadvantage now." After that, he rushed to the palace gate to urge his horse to leave.

Sichai said intently: "I am an assassin and a killer. I am used to taking risks all day long. I have already felt itchy."

Zhou Xuan rushed to the east gate of the palace city, which was Danfeng Gate. He didn't see the door open, but he could hear a noise in the palace city. Zhou Xuan shouted that the door was opened, but no one answered. The palace wall was five meters high and no one could jump up.

Zhou Xuan ordered Fan Zaoxing to lead a team of men to King Jing's Mansion to investigate the situation. He and Sanchi and Murong Liusu led the soldiers to Zichen Gate in the south.

Zichen Gate was slowly closing. Sanchi shouted loudly, grabbed a spear of the soldiers beside him, threw it over, and stabbed a strong eunuch to the heart.

Zhou Xuan rushed over, and more than a dozen eunuchs ran around. These eunuchs were all Li Kun's party. The Southern Tang Dynasty was different from the Tang Dynasty. The eunuchs had never been in power. The eunuchs around Li Yu also had good reading. After reading Ma Yuanzhi of the late Tang Dynasty, Wang Shicheng and other senior eunuchs were in charge of the Shen Ce Army. They were powerful and could actually depose the emperor. The emperor had to act according to their expressions. The Southern Yabei and the Northern Army were in charge of the courtesy. The eunuchs of the Southern Tang Dynasty were envious, so they defected to King Jing to make a contribution to supporting the new king. Because Li Jian was already the prince and now he was in charge of the country and he did not need them to support him. Only by urging Li Kun to take office, the eunuchs had the opportunity to make a name for themselves. The eunuchs who were closer to Zhou Xuan were killed by the eunuchs who were bribed by Li Kun a few months ago. They were covered up perfectly and said that they died of illness.

Previously, Qingxifang was in a fire. Li Kun thought that Prince Li Jian was going to attack him first. He immediately brought his royal guards and dozens of recruited martial arts experts to open the palace gate and head straight for Daxing Palace. He wanted to control his uncle Li Yu in his hands, which would mean that the big thing was half done. Of course, the beautiful uncle Zhou Wei could not let go.

Zhou Xuan heard the sound of swords and wars fighting in the direction of Zichen Palace. He knew that the Eastern Palace Imperial Guards were fighting with the King of Jing's Mansion Guards, and immediately shouted: "Run the East Palace immediately, and be sure to cut off King of Jing's party."

Two hundred Fenghua soldiers followed Zhou Xuan into the palace and bypassed the Baoyuan Hall. They saw about hundreds of people fighting in front of Xuanzheng Hall. Sanchi had good eyesight and said, "The Eastern Palace's people were at a disadvantage and were oppressed in Xuanzheng Hall. It seems that His Royal Highness is in Xuanzheng Hall."

It was the beginning of Mao. It was usually dawn at this time, but today something big happened, and the celestial phenomena were strange. Dark clouds were swaying the city, like a huge black pot, covering the entire Jinling City.
