Chapter 651: The King's Ambition(1/2)
King Xin...
King Xin is on the run.
In the cold wind at night, His Highness Xin, wearing an old blue shirt, looked at the young and strong people who kept walking behind him with fear, and at this moment, only Wang Chengen accompanied him.
Deshengmen, which can be seen from afar behind them, is in the darkness of the artillery fire.
Lin Danhan's army is attacking overnight.
The prince of the Shuhua County of the Ming Dynasty brought a total of 40,000 troops, 25,000 Chahar cavalry, 15,000 miscellaneous brands, including the Duoyansubudii, some of the people of Dongtumot that were annexed, and even a large part of them were bandits. Tens of thousands of bandits wandered around the mountains of Rehe River outside the Great Wall for many years, and these people could not find out their identities. Fleeing households, fleeing herdsmen, deserters, and in short, they were in chaos. These people were basically attracted to his team because of Lin Danhan's southward journey.
Under the intentional release of Liu Zhao, the governor of Shuntian, this huge cavalry army rushed into the Great Wall from Baima Pass like a bamboo shoot, and then rushed to the capital. After a little preparation, it immediately began a strong attack on the capital.
They don't know what's happening in the city.
In Lin Danhan's opinion, the accomplices in the city must have been prepared to respond. All they need to do is to attack forcefully to create opportunities for these people. Therefore, this hungry captive, like a group of hungry wolves pounced outside the sheep pen, staring with blood-red eyes straight at the towering city wall...
There is everything inside the city wall.
silver.
food.
Even women.
Just open the capital and they can get everything they want.
No siege equipment?
Just have a ladder!
It’s now, who can still consider such trivial matters? Anyway, the moat has long been frozen, and you can hit the city wall by stepping directly on the ice, and the rest is just a thrust.
Finally, this night, the ancient city ushered in war again. Countless messes like hungry wolves, crazily carrying ladders and rushing across the moat on the ice, and then attacking Deshengmen. Under the command of Fang Ge Lao, who was ordered in danger, the defending city relied on the patrol team, the Yang family employees and the soldiers of the Beijing camp to fight to the death on the city wall. The sound of gunfires ran through the night sky, and the flames stained Deshengmen red.
While the fierce battle in Deshengmen was in Deshengmen, the police also searched the city.
A large number of counter-party fled before.
Not only His Highness, but most of the nobles who participated in the coup fled. These guys were locals, so it was not difficult to escape and hide. The Mounted Police Team sealed all the nobles' families while searching for them.
Fights happen from time to time.
After all, many of these escaped guys are carrying weapons.
In short, this night, no one fell asleep in the capital...
"Master, where can we go now?"
Wang Chengen said.
"If I enter the palace at this time..."
I believe in the king but stops.
"King, don't say that you can't even enter the palace at this time. I advise you that you have a glimmer of life in fashion, but now there is no glimmer of life. Not to mention that Jiu Qiansui and the Queen cannot let you go at this time, and let the prince ascend the throne is very variable. Even those under Cao Wenyao and Xu Xianchun will not let you live. You will be killed in public at this time and you will be killed in less than a minute. At this time, Ruoyi's servant can only find a secret place to hide and find another opportunity to go to Master Sun to try his luck. If you are lucky, Master Sun might be able to save us. If you are not lucky, I can only continue to serve you on the road to the underworld."
Wang Chengen said.
It was before, and there was room for recovery before.
There's something else now!
Now that the emperor has fallen into a coma again, he probably can't hold on. Even if he is angry, he will almost die of anger. With the support of Cao Wenyao and Xu Xianchun, there is no suspense for the prince to succeed to the throne. But since the prince succeeds to the throne, then the ambitious uncle of King Xin, who has already taken action, must be killed.
There is no need to do it publicly.
At this time, as long as King Xin appears, he will be killed immediately.
However, there is more or less a glimmer of hope in the place of Master Sun, but it is just a glimmer of hope, because it depends on whether Master Sun wants to continue fighting. If Master Sun chooses to surrender, then the first thing is to sell them. In short...
"These thieves!"
His Highness, King Xin, lamented in grief and anger...
"Come on him!"
Suddenly there was a shout.
His Highness King Xin was trembling with fear. Wang Chengen hurriedly pushed him into the shadow. Then a familiar face ran past with several slaves in horror. Then the police officers behind them appeared. The police officers on the horses spewed out flames. The few people screamed and fell down. Soon the police rushed over, and they were pressed down like wolves and tigers. They were seriously injured and knocked to death. The ones they knew were only slightly injured, and they were handcuffed and tied behind the horse. The police officers of the leader casually looked at the hiding place of King Xin. Wang Chengen protected King Xin and lay in the depths of the shadows, leaning against a big tree to cover their body.
The policeman then turned his head and left with his men with the trophy.
The two kings and kings breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's Huairoubo."
Wang Chengen said carefully.
"These thieves!"
His Highness King Xin said hatefully again.
Of course, he was not talking about Huairoubo, who led his family slaves to the imperial city from Dong'anmen and then went to reinforce the Meridian Gate. However, he was already broken before he reached the Meridian Gate and happened to run into the mount policeman who entered the palace. He was directly dispersed by Cao Wenyao, hiding everywhere in the chaos and wondering how he was caught.
In fact, most of the nobles who participated in the coup before were like this.
They used their pampered minds that had never experienced any hardships, like a group of freshmen who imagined the future, to formulate the plans they thought were exquisite and put them into action with confidence. But after the action began, they realized that they were just a group of little lambs that had just grown a little horn. Then, facing the dark forest and countless wolves, tigers and leopards, they collapsed instantly, and they collapsed completely, so much that it took them a lot of time to catch them.
Wang Chengen sadly pulled His Highness Xin's sleeve and took him carefully to get out of the shadow of hiding, but just the moment they stepped out...
"Who?"
Suddenly there was a angrily shout.
The two of them were so scared that they almost sat on the ground. Wang Chengen turned his head tremblingly.
"Eunuch Wang?"
A voice that made him frightened.
Wang Chengen looked at the distance not far away, where more than a dozen young and strong men were holding weapons, watching them at an alley entrance. The leader was a middle-aged man holding a short gun in his hand and was watching him unexpectedly.
"Xu, Shopkeeper Xu."
Wang Chengen said.
He met an acquaintance, and the probability of this was actually very high.
His Highness King Xin looked at them in confusion.
At this moment, a sound of horse hooves came. The shopkeeper Xu looked at King Xin, his face changed immediately, and then waved to them. Wang Chengen immediately woke up and pulled King Xin to walk over quickly. Manager Xu gave a wink at his subordinates. These subordinates immediately squeezed them in the middle. At the same time, a team of police officers appeared and looked at them in the head...
"Shopkeeper Xu, where are you going?"
said to the leader of the mount policeman.
"Captain Li, brothers go to the outer city. Now the city is in chaos, and there are quite a few people who take advantage of the chaos to steal goods. Don't stolen goods from the outer city."
Manager Xu bowed and said with a smile.
The Mounted Police looked at the clerk behind him. Wang Chengen and Wang Xin lowered their heads in the crowd. He probably had some friendship with Manager Xu, and then called his subordinates to leave. Manager Xu breathed a sigh of relief, without saying much nonsense, and waved directly to the back. The small team continued to move forward. Wang Chengen and Wang Chengen were squeezed in the middle by them. Although they encountered more than a team of Mounted Police along the way, they even had officials who led young and strong reinforcements to Deshengmen, they did not notice them. Soon they arrived at Xuanwumen like this.
Both Xuanwu and Chongwen were not closed. After all, Lin Dankhan is currently the main attacker of Deshengmen, and at most there are some battles in Andingmen area, but the other gates are fine. The outer city is a material warehouse in the inner city, and there is no need to close it in a short period of time.
Manager Xu has a wide range of ways and has not been strictly inspected in Xuanwu Gate.
King Xin and Wang Chengen were still under their protection, easily passed through the city gate, then entered the outer city and entered the warehouse of Shopkeeper Xu.
"Little Xu Liang pays homage to the king!"
Manager Xu closed the door and turned around and saluted Wang Xin.
"Yi Shi Xu please get up quickly."
King Xin was excited and quickly supported him.
Speaking of which, His Highness Xin Wang was really surprised. He never expected that there would be such a miracle. This shows that this just person exists after all.
"King, Xu Yishi is a businessman in Shaanxi. Our mansion buys most of the people from here."
Wang Chengen explained.
"The king is like Xu's parents. If Xu sat on the sidelines and watched the king be killed, wouldn't it be a waste of his life? But the capital still cannot be kept. The police are searching for the whole city, but they are fighting now. They don't have to investigate too carefully. Once the King of Hue is repelled, they will have to search from door to door. The young man is ready to escort the king out of the city overnight, but they don't know where the king wants to go next?"
Manager Xu said.
“How to get out of the city?”
Wang Chengen said in confusion.
"Eunuch Wang, the walls of this capital are indeed high and steep, but it is still easy for us vendors to get out."
Manager Xu said with a smile.
King Xin and Wang Chengen looked at him in confusion.
"The king, those who do business like a small person will inevitably have to sell some contraband products. The city gate cannot be left, so they have to climb over the city wall in the middle of the night. Not only small ones, but in fact, some people in and out of the city wall at night, they only need to find a few strong men and carry the king over the wall to go out."
Manager Xu explained with a smile.
Well, this is indeed a night view in the capital.
Not to mention the outer city, which is only six or seven meters high, the inner city walls in the Chongwenmen area were smuggled in the Qing Dynasty every night. However, at that time, the main trafficking of wine was mainly carried. Chongwenmen's duties were heavy, and a large number of smugglers climbed over the wall and carried wine into the inner city at night. There were many people who fell to death. Of course, there was no need to let King Xin know about this.
