Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh sword light sword shadow
(I wrote a chapter first, try to keep it updated, after all, a month of attendance is a lot of money!)
At this time, Ma Shiying was thrown to the ground by the two Jinyiwei and woke up. At first, he didn't know what was going on, and he looked at Ma Cheng blankly. It took him a long time to realize that it was the emperor who wanted to kill him. Ma Shiying was so scared that he shouted: "Chener save me!"
Ma Luan is a civil servant. Seeing this scene, he was so scared that he couldn't speak. Ma Xi was better. Although he was so scared that he was a general after all. He immediately reacted and looked at Ma Cheng and shouted, "What should I do with the second brother?"
Seeing Lu Siye rushing over with his people, Ma Cheng cursed: "What can I do if I give him a mother? You go carry my father, I will carry my elder brother, and escape into the inner trunk to hide!"
Ma Cheng and Ma Xi stepped forward and one carried Ma Shiying on their backs, the other helped Ma Luan up, quickly crossed the palace wall and entered the inner trunk.
After Ma Cheng and others disappeared, Lu Siye came over with his men. There was nothing he could do. Just now, Lu Siye was more than 100 meters away from Ma Cheng, and with these 100 people wearing heavy armor and weapons, it would be strange if they could run fast.
When Lu Siye saw Ma Cheng disappearing in the ruins of the inner warehouse, he scolded in anger: "You trash, don't go in and look for them? If you can't find me, I'll kill you!"
Although Lu Siye's subordinates were dissatisfied, they did not dare to have an attack. They had no choice but to enter the inner warehouse with torches and start searching one room at a time. The inner warehouse in the imperial city covers a huge area, with five or six hundred rooms, and Lu Siye's subordinates only 100 people. When should we find this?
Lu Siye knew that Ma Cheng had a high prestige in the army. If he could not find Ma Cheng for a long time, when the news came out after dawn, it would be difficult for the 50,000 troops outside the city to make any moves. Lu Siye thought about it and had no choice but to go to find his uncle Lu Jiude.
Because there is an important action tonight, how dare Lu Jiude sleep? After being on duty in Qianqing Palace, he rushed to Xihua Gate and waited for good news to come from Lu Siye outside the gate.
Lu Jiude came to Xihuamen and waited in the room where the guards were on duty in the gate. After a while, someone came to inform him that Lu Siye was coming outside Xihuamen.
Lu Jiude thought things were going well. After asking through the crack of Xihua Gate, Lu Jiude learned that the Ma family and his son had run into the ruins of the inner warehouse.
Lu Jiude was so angry that he scolded Lu Siye: "You trash, more than a hundred people can't catch four drunks?"
Lu Siye said with a frown: "Uncle, there is nothing I can do about this. Who would have thought that Ma Cheng could see through our arrangements! What should I do now? They ran into the inner warehouse, with hundreds of houses inside, and only one hundred nephews under him. I couldn't find them after searching for two days!"
Lu Jiude thought about it and wanted to transfer personnel from the palace, and now the palace gate has been locked. Unless there is something important, you must have the emperor's special order if you want to open the door. However, Lu Jiude wants to have a place in the future court and does not want the emperor to look down on him.
There is no way Lu Jiude said to Lu Siye outside the door: "It is impossible to transfer troops from Xihua Gate. You go find Mei Chun, he will be on duty tonight!"
When he heard his uncle ask him to find Mei Chun, Lu Siye asked hesitantly: "Uncle, Mei Chun's attitude is unclear, so I'm afraid to find him..."
Lu Siye was afraid that Mei Chun would sell him, but Lu Jiude was a man who raped Ma Lao Chui and sneered: "Idiot, don't you have an imperial edict? Show it to Mei Chun. As long as Mei Chun is not a fool, he will know what to do!"
Lu Siye can't do anything when he hears his uncle say this
He had no choice but to ask his subordinates to continue searching here, and took a few people to the Nandu Guardian in the imperial city.
The Nandu Guardian is not far from Xihua Gate. At the intersection of the West City Wall and the South City Wall, this place should have been Lu Siye's yamen. After all, his name is Nandu Guardian. However, the emperor dared not give all rights to one person after Ma Cheng's affairs, so the emperor handed over the defense of Nanjing to three people. The inner city was Lu Siye, the imperial city was Mei Chun, and in the end, the palace city was Lu Jiude, the emperor trusted the most.
Today is the day of the emperor's wedding. Mei Chun dared not be careless and personally led the guards in the palace to be on duty. At this time, someone outside reported that Lu Siye, the admiral of the inner city's small school, came to see Mei Chun with an imperial edict.
Mei Chun was a man who was successful in defending Tianbao Mountain in Nanjing and was promoted to admiral after the war. In addition, Mei Chun's ancestors were extremely loyal to the old Zhu family, so Emperor Zhu Lunkui promoted Mei Chun to the Minister of the Guards, the Admiral of the Imperial City Guards, and the Commander of the Xiaoling Guards.
Mei Chun also knew why the emperor valued himself so much, it was nothing more than the word loyalty. Therefore, Mei Chun worked diligently in the past few years without any mistakes.
Tonight, Mei Chun heard the imperial edict and did not dare to neglect it. She quickly took two deputy generals out to greet him. When she arrived at the door, she saw Lu Siye wearing armor standing in front of her. Mei Chun was stunned.
It is a peaceful time. Why did Lu Siye, an inner city admiral, enter the imperial city in military uniform? Is there something wrong with the imperial city?
Mei Chun dared not ask, and quickly knelt down and said, "My Me, Mei Chun, pay homage to the angel!"
Lu Siye didn't say much, and opened the imperial edict and said, "Ma Shiying, father and son of the cabinet, rebelled and rebelled, and now he ordered the inner city admiral Lu Siye to lead troops to wipe out the imperial edict!" The imperial edict was not a formal national document, so the format was very simple, and there was no word "Fengtian Chengyun" and other words.
Although this imperial edict is simple, it can be heard in Mei Chun's ears. The emperor wants to kill Ma Shiying's whole family?
"Lu Junmen, is this true?" Mei Chun knew Ma Cheng's contribution to the country, and he didn't believe that the emperor could issue an order to kill Ma Cheng, so Mei Chun's first reaction was that Lu Siye and his uncle Lu Jiude wanted to launch a palace coup. Some intermediate officers following Mei Chun saw Mei Junmen asking this, and they all leaned over and waited for Mei Chun's order to rectify the cunning Lu Siye on the spot.
When Lu Siye saw the bad faces of these guards in the palace, he was so scared that he was sweating all over. He knew that these guards in the imperial city were different from the Han generals in the palace. These guards had participated in the Nanjing Defense Battle back then. Although they were not Ma Cheng's direct line, they admired Ma Cheng very much. Now, as long as he had any suspicious actions, he would die on the spot.
Lu Siye shouted nervously: "Mei Junmen, look, the imperial edict is covered with the emperor's seal, and it is also written by the emperor! It's not the cunning edict of this official!"
Mei Chun took the order from Lu Siye and looked carefully, and found that as Lu Siye said, there was no problem with the small seal and the font. Mei Chun knew that Lu Siye's uncle Lu Jiude was in charge of the emperor and was able to seal the seal, so the small seal was nothing, but the emperor's handwritten letter could not be forged, which also proved that the emperor really wanted to get rid of Ma Cheng and his son.
Mei Chun respected Ma Cheng very much in his heart, and even raised Ma Cheng to the level of founding generals. However, he did not expect that in just a few years, the emperor would destroy the Great Wall by himself. But the emperor was the emperor. Although Mei Chun was unwilling to do so, the Mei family was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the royal family for generations, so Mei Chun knelt down again and said, "My Mein, Mei Chun,
Obey the order!”
Mei Chun's subordinates saw that the commanders had already been ordered, so they knelt down to receive the order.
Seeing that these guys were finally overwhelmed by the order, Lu Siye secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Mei Chun, now Ma Shiying and his son are hiding in the inner trough between Xi'an Gate and Xihua Gate. You lead a thousand imperial guards and search immediately. Remember! I found that Ma Shiying and his son immediately rectified the Dharma, as long as they die, they should not live!"
Mei Chun sighed in her heart that it was really a bird that was full of bows and hiding its bow and killing the donkey, but what could he do?
Mei Chun bowed and said, "The last general will receive the order!" After that, he led a thousand soldiers and followed Lu Siye to the inner trunk to find the traces of Ma Cheng and his son.
It was already late at night after Ma Cheng and his son had finished drinking and came out of the Ganqing Palace. After this action, when Mei Chun brought his people to the Xi'an Gate, it was already bright. Mei Chun looked at the sky. Although she didn't know if Ma Shiying and his son were still inside, Mei Chun hoped that she could find Ma Shiying and his son as soon as possible. Because Mei Chun knew about Ma Cheng's weight in the army, if this matter was delayed for a long time and the 50,000 troops outside the city received news, then there would be no one or two people who died.
Emperor Zhu Lunkui handed over the task of disposing of Ma Shiying and his son to Lu Siye because he was afraid that the news would leak and that his efforts would fail. Ma Cheng had a high prestige in the army. Although Lu Siye is now the admiral of the inner city, who knows whether that intermediate general is Ma Cheng's iron rod? If the news of the emperor going to get rid of Ma Cheng spread, the emperor himself may be in the end.
Mei Chun looked at the black inner warehouse ruins and said to his subordinates: "Ten people in groups, start searching!"
A subordinate of Mei Chun asked in a low voice: "Mr. Military Sect, what if you catch it?"
Mei Chun pondered for a while, then whispered: "According to the emperor's order, kill him without any hesitation!"
Although Mei Chun's subordinates admired Ma Cheng, they did not dare to disobey the emperor's orders, so they had to lead people to search the inner treasury rooms one by one.
Ma Cheng and Ma Xi helped Ma Shiying and Ma Luan leave the main road and enter the inner trunk. At this time, Ma Shiying had already woken up most of the time. He saw his two sons killing the accompanying Jinyiwei, and saw the guards in the palace in Xi'anmen that they were shouting that they wanted to kill him. They were so scared that they would not leave. If Ma Xi had not carried Ma Shiying on his back, he would have been caught by Lu Siye's men halfway.
Ma Luan's situation is similar to Ma Shiying. Both of them are civil servants. They are experts in their daily lives, and they are really scared to walk when they are really useless.
Ma Cheng helped Ma Luan and ran for dozens of meters before Ma Luan came to her senses, lifted up her official robe and ran behind Ma Xi.
The father and son ran wildly, running out for more than 300 meters, and could no longer see the torch behind him, so they found a hidden house and hid.
Ma Shiying was already awake at this time and wiped the sweat on her face and asked, "What the hell is going on? Why did Lu Siye shout the emperor's order to kill you, my father and son? It must be the guys of the Donglin Party. They can't fight me, so they want to fake the imperial edict to get rid of me! This is a rebellion! I am going to see the emperor, and the emperor must not know about this. The emperor will give me justice!"
