Inside the jade box is a large seal.

The emperor's nine seals have their own uses, among which the jade seal is the most respected. The piece in the jade box is an emperor's seal used to send troops to the court. On weekdays, the nine seals are carried by Zhao Quan, the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor, and the piece given to him by Zhao Huan is one of them.

Zhang Danping knew this jade seal, so he asked this question.

Zhao Xing immediately understood that the so-called Zhao family clan talisman that Zhao Huan mentioned was just a cover. When he came out, he did not negotiate with Princess Taiping, but brought the emperor's seal to Zhao Xing, asking Zhao Xing to find a way to use this seal to mobilize the troops outside the palace and enter the palace to rescue the emperor.

Zhao Xingdao: "General Zhang, take a step to speak."

Feng Qianjin said, "General, he is provoking..."

Zhang Danping also knew the situation was serious and glared at Feng Qianjin, "He is holding the jade seal of His Majesty. Why? Do you still want to invite this jade seal back?"

Feng Qianjin was stunned when he heard this, and his head shaking like a rattle.

When he arrived at a secluded place, Zhang Danping quietly listened to the situation of the palace brought by Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xingdao: "Your Majesty has entered the secret room to hide. General Zhao, Duke Jingguo, General Qiu and others are also protecting Your Majesty. However, now the situation in the palace is controlled by Zhu Dian, King Gaoyang, and Zhu Dian. Please ask Commander Zhang to send troops to enter the palace to protect Your Majesty!"

Zhang Danping was a little hesitant.

He also couldn't tell whether what Zhao Xing said was true or false.

He knew nothing about the situation inside the palace wall now, and no movement came out.

Zhang Danping said: "It's just your one-sided statement. Our 3,000 battalions are responsible for the defense of the capital, but within the palace, they are no longer within our duties. Moreover, our 3,000 battalions are dispatching troops and generals, only recognizing the tiger talismans and not trusting the seal. Your request makes me feel a little embarrassed."

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the army must be mobilized, and there must be an emperor's edict and a tiger talisman. The tiger talismans in the three camps are divided into two pieces, half in the hands of the emperor, and the other is in the hands of the mighty general Qiu Huairen. Qiu Huairen carries them with him, while the other is not under the supervision of the Sili. The seal and ribbon talisman in the twelve prisons has been in chaos in the palace now, so naturally he cannot take out the tiger talisman he wants.

What's more, Zhao Xing wanted three thousand camps to enter the palace. If the news or orders were wrong, this action would be like rebellion, and it would be a matter of confiscation of the house and the nine clans were destroyed.

Zhao Xingdao: "How can Commander Zhang send troops?"

Zhang Danping said: "There is a handwritten letter from General Qiu."

Zhao Xing could not do this requirement.

Zhang Danping said, "Now there are General Xu's 80,000 soldiers and horses outside the capital, and there are 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city. However, if they want to mobilize, they also need to write a tiger talisman, and they dare not agree easily."

Zhao Xingdao: "There is no other way?"

Zhang Danping thought for a moment and said, "It's not that there is no one. As far as I know, General Lin of the Imperial Guard did not attend the night banquet today. The palace defense is their Imperial Guard's responsibility, and it's the right way to find him."

Now, I can only go to find Lin Datong.

Zhao Xing declined to thank Zhang Danping, borrowed a fast horse from him and galloped towards Lin Datong Mansion. Fortunately, Feng Qianjin made a fuss. Zhao Xing was disheartened and did not want to open the jade box. Unexpectedly, by accident, he discovered the secret.

Zhao Xing quickly got into the state.

After about a cup of tea, Zhao Xing came to Lin Datong's mansion.

He was received by Commander Lin Qiao, the daughter of Commander Lin. When she was a child, she and Zhao Xing were childhood sweethearts and were quite affectionate with Zhao Xing. However, in the past few years, she has reached the age of getting married, but Zhao Xing has been hiding from her. Tonight, he heard that Zhao Xing was coming, so he rushed to the front yard to meet him, with a happy expression on his face and said, "Brother Zhao, are you here to find me specifically?"

Zhao Xingdao: "I have something important to do, come to see General Lin."

Lin Qiao looked disappointed, "My father was too tired today and had already fallen asleep."

Lin Datong broke his arm at the Temple of Heaven. Although he was seeking medical treatment in time, he lost too much blood and did not attend the night banquet of the palace.

Zhao Xingdao: "Qiaomei, today's situation is urgent, please report it."

Lin Qiao said: "Then how do you thank me?"

Zhao Xing said: "How can you thank you if you want me to thank you?"

Lin Qiao said, "You know what I want, but I, Lin Qiao, will not take advantage of the danger. When things are done, you can treat me to a meal."

Zhao Xing had no choice but to agree. Lin Qiao turned around and went to the inner courtyard. Zhao Xing reminded, "Just say that Zhao Xing took Your Majesty's seal and was ordered by Your Majesty to ask for something important!" Lin Qiao heard that Zhao Xing held Your Majesty's seal and knew it was a big deal, so she stepped faster.

In a moment, Lin Qiao took Zhao Xing to the study.

Lin Datong's face was a little pale, his whole forearm was wrapped in white cloth, covered with bright red. He sat on the collapse and said, "Nephew Zhao, I'm injured, I can't get up to greet you. I heard Qiaoer say you have something to come to me?" Zhao Xing immediately knelt down on one knee and raised the jade box over his head with both hands. "Six doors are in charge of Zhao Xing, and he was ordered by His Majesty to ask General Lin to send troops to the palace to protect the palace!"

When Lin Datong heard this, he asked Lin Qiao to open the jade box. It was His Majesty's seal. He looked solemn and asked Lin Qiao to wait outside the study room. "No one is allowed to get close to here without my order!" Although Lin Qiao was unwilling, he could see that Lin Datong had such an expression and knew that the situation was serious, so he left the study room.

"what happen?"

Zhao Xing said a few words, saying that King Gaoyang made a big feast, controlled the imperial guards, and forced the emperor to the palace. He said that he had been with Lin Datong. When Lin Datong heard that the deputy commander of the imperial guards, Lu Fan, colluded with King Gaoyang to rebel, he was furious, "What a Lu Fan, it would be fine if he didn't listen to the arrangements on weekdays, but he did such a traitorous thing!"

"Who recommended Lu Fan?"

Lin Datong: "He was originally a Qianhu of the Jinyiwei, and it was Duke Jingguo who recommended him to be the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard! Unexpectedly, he secretly surrendered to King Gaoyang!"

“What should I do now?”

Lin Datong suddenly stood up and said, "Zhao Xing, help me change my armor!" Then he said to Lin Qiao outside the door: "Qiao'er, let Manager Yu call Commander Xing!"

Zhao Xingdao, "Commander Lin, you are injured..."

Lin Datong: "If I don't do anything, can you do it?"

Zhao Xingdao, "I am working on killing people and fighting, but when marching and fighting, it depends on Commander Lin."

Lin Datong: "Then what are you still in Moji?"

As the commander of the imperial guards, it was his duty to protect the palace. This time, the deputy commander Lu Fan was also involved in the palace, which made him feel the seriousness of the situation. If something went wrong with Your Majesty, then the first person to be implicated was Lin Datong.

Lin Datong: "Three thousand imperial guards are divided into three guards. I was on duty tonight. After I was injured, Lu Fan temporarily took over. He controlled the Zuo Jinwu Guard. There were more than a thousand people, and the remaining two thousand people were stationed outside the palace. I will go with you and find a way to enter the palace."

Not long after, the deputy commander Xing Lian came, and Lin Datong did not tell him what was going on. He directly ordered, "Call the two thousand soldiers stationed outside the palace, temporarily dispatch them, and enter the palace to change defense!" He added, "Change the saber!"

Xing Lian said: "Sir, it's Commander Lu tonight..."

Linda Channel: "The situation has changed, execute the command! You go first, I will arrive later!"

Xing Lian was promoted by him, and his original intention was to allow him to accept the imperial guards, but he was replaced by Lu Fan a year ago and became the third leader of the imperial guards. He never asked about Lin Datong's orders and left immediately after receiving the order.

After changing the armor, Lin Datong looked at the empty sleeves on his left arm, feeling impatient, "Do you a favor."

Zhao Xing drew his knife and cut off his sleeve with one knife.

Lin Datong stood up and walked out.

Lin Qiao saw that her father was about to go out in the middle of the night, and she was worried and said, "Father, you have injuries..."

Lin Datong: "Something happened in the palace now and needs to be dealt with by his father. In the past few days, I am not at home, so you should take good care of your mother..." He reminded him a few more words, called in charge of the affairs, and explained some things at home. He knew that tonight was the time of the Ming Emperor's life and death, and it was also the night of the life and death of the Lin family. Some things must be explained clearly.

When everything is right, come to Baima.

Lin Datong was not used to the one-armed one-armed one-armed one-armed one-armed one-armed one-armed one-armed pain, and beads of sweat oozing out from his forehead. Zhao Xing wanted to help, but Lin Datong threw away. He supported himself with one-armed one-armed one-way, jumped onto the horse, and said to Zhao Xing, "Go!"

Flash.

After half a stick of incense, the two of them arrived at Xihuamen.

The four gates of the imperial city are the Meridian Gate. They only go to the main gate during important festivals such as court, sacrifices or welcome foreign guests. On weekdays, civil servants and military generals, cabinet scholars go to the Donghua Gate, and Xihua Gate is the imperial guards and eunuchs in the palace. The Xihua Gate connects to the Xiyuan, so the imperial guards in the palace are stationed outside the Xihua Gate when they are not on duty.

The two thousand imperial guards have already changed their clothes and held sabers, rather than the long halberds they usually use during night patrols.

Everyone looked solemn and was ready to fight.

They were imperial guards of the palace. Although they were stationed outside, they were separated from the palace by a wall. They also heard about what happened in the Palace of Supreme Harmony.

A few people came to complain that they were all stopped outside, and even the carriages transporting gold and water could not enter, and several people were even threatened. Just half an hour ago, several eunuchs sneaked out of the palace with gold and silver and soft soft gold and soft, and were caught by people outside patrolling the night. Upon hearing the news, they said that there had been drastic changes inside, and even rumored that His Majesty had been killed by King Gaoyang.

Rumors spread everywhere.

Lin Datong came to the imperial army and said, "Brothers, a rebellion occurred in the palace tonight. Deputy Commander Lu Fan surrendered to the rebel king of Gaoyang Zhu Dian forcing the palace to rebel. Now the situation in the palace is critical, and now is the time for our imperial army to die!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the imperial guards were also shocked.

Sure enough, those rumors are true.

Lin Datong pointed inside the palace, "In this city wall, there are Your Majesty, civil and military officials, and our friends. They need us, and Your Majesty needs us even more." After that, he held the emperor's seal in front of him, "What I hold in my hand is Your Majesty's jade seal. Now he is ordered by Your Majesty to enter the palace to serve the king! Get on the sabre!"

Two thousand imperial guards all replaced the saber.

This long sword grows two feet longer than the ordinary long sword, and the handle is about one foot longer, making it more suitable for close combat and chopping.

The moonlight shines on the saber, shining with a slight cold light.

Linda Channel: "Who are we?"

"The Imperial Guard of Ming Dynasty!"

“What is our duty?”

"Defend the Imperial City! Defend the Imperial City! Defend the Imperial City!"

Lin Datong: "Start immediately and take over the palace in full. If you encounter resistance, kill me without any hesitation! The rebel thief Lu Fan will be punished by heaven!"

Everyone said in unison: "Do you should be punished by heaven!"
