Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 209: Battle at the Palace Gate
Now Zhang Yuan has gone to Bei Liao as he wished, and from now on whether he is dead or alive has nothing to do with Lin Mingyue anymore.
No matter how justifiable his reasons are, Lin Mingyue will never accept a traitor. In the face of the safety of his country, brotherhood means nothing.
Lin Mingyue did not reminisce about the past and continued to give instructions to Zhu Hua.
"Clean up this place, send the rebels to the Yulin Guards, and then organize the troops and return to the camp."
"Subordinates take orders."
Lin Mingyue swiftly jumped onto his horse and galloped towards the city gate.
The Xuzhou army has been completely wiped out, but the crisis in the palace has not been completely resolved. As Lin Yushu said before, now is the most dangerous moment.
He had to rush over to support Lin Ling, otherwise, as a young man in his twenties, he would not be able to get away with it in front of King Zhao.
At this time, outside the east gate of the imperial palace, two teams of people stood facing each other, and the situation was quite tense.
On one side, Lin Ling sat upright on his horse, with a group of imperial guards surrounding a few traitors who were tied up.
On the other side, King Zhao sat in front of the carriage, staring at Lin Ling with unfriendly eyes. The imperial guards behind him felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the imperial guards on both sides were still one body not long ago. Even if they were divided into two halves, they were still good brothers who would see each other every day.
But the current situation is obviously very tense, making it impossible for them to look directly at the brothers opposite them.
"Prince Zhao, today the rebels inside and outside the capital joined forces to attack the South Gate from the outside and the Imperial Palace from the inside. This is obviously a long-planned rebellion. Now that the rebels have not been eliminated, I think it is not appropriate for the Imperial Guards to enter the palace to see the Emperor."
King Zhao clicked his tongue impatiently. He had originally planned to take Lin Ling's other half of the imperial guards and march straight into the inner courtyard of the imperial palace after arriving at the palace gate, thus providing an opportunity for assassination to the traitor hidden in the imperial guards.
But unexpectedly, Lin Ling was a stubborn person. He blocked the palace gate and refused to let the imperial guards enter the palace.
"General Huqi, it is precisely because the traitors are so daring that I must go to the palace to see His Majesty, in order to prevent the traitors from sneaking into the palace. This concerns the safety of Your Majesty. If any problems arise, it is not something a mere general like you can bear!"
No matter how strongly the King of Zhao threatened or warned him secretly, Lin Ling remained unmoved. He looked as if he was not afraid of the boiling water and refused to move.
King Zhao was so angry that he almost burst into curses and wished he could kill Lin Ling. As time was getting later, he was afraid that if he didn't enter the palace, today's plan would completely fail.
King Zhao finally decided to take a gamble.
"Lin Ling, you are stopping me like this today. Do you have bad intentions? Tell me! Are you in the same group with those rebels? Has the palace been controlled by the rebels, so you are stopping me here?"
Hearing him blaming her back, Lin Ling almost laughed out of anger, "Prince Zhao, save your breath. No matter what you say, I will not let you bring anyone into the palace!"
"Good! You are admitting that you have a problem! Imperial Guards, listen up and capture the rebel Lin Ling!"
The imperial guards behind King Zhao were stunned for a moment, but the absolute obedience to orders engraved in their bones forced them to take action against their former colleagues.
"Imperial guards, listen up! Stop King Zhao and don't let anyone into the palace!"
Twenty thousand imperial guards opened the gate outside the palace's east gate. Upon seeing this, King Zhao completely released his suppressed cruelty and bloodlust. He grabbed the spear of the guard beside him, jumped on his horse, and his movements were neat and powerful, without any sign that he was a lame man.
Seeing Prince Zhao charging at him with a spear in hand, Lin Ling's fighting spirit was aroused. He had heard the rumor that Prince Zhao once fought against a hundred enemies alone and rescued Emperor Ming from the chaos of the army.
The long sword in his hand was unsheathed, and the sharp blade pierced the sky. The blood groove on the long sword was dark red, which was the color stained by the blood of the enemies during years of fighting.
Lin Ling's eyes were as sharp as the sword in his hand, an excited smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he squeezed his horse's belly and rushed out to meet King Zhao.
The imperial guards, who were watching the fights going on all around them, saw their two superiors fighting each other, so they simply put away their weapons and retreated far away to watch the two men fighting each other.
After all, when the devils fight, the little devils suffer, so they'd better stay away. Otherwise, they wouldn't be killed by the rebels but die at the hands of their own boss. That would be too unfair.
At the moment when the two men passed each other on horseback, the sound of spears and swords colliding continued to ring out. In just this moment, the two men fought dozens of times.
The more the fight went on, the more frightened King Zhao became. He had not expected that Lin Ling's kung fu was so good that he could not suppress him.
Lin Ling looked very proud and excitedly called out to King Zhao.
"Prince Zhao, you haven't been on the battlefield for many years, and your arms and legs are rusty? How come you can't even defeat a junior like me?"
Upon hearing this, King Zhao's eyes turned red and his cheeks bulged as he clenched his teeth.
"Don't be too proud too soon, little Lin Ling. I will let you know that there are always people who are better than you!"
The King of Zhao was a very skilled martial artist. If he were ten years younger, Lin Ling would never be able to defeat him. Even now, Lin Ling could only guarantee that he would not be injured by the King of Zhao, but he could not defeat him.
Just when the two were fighting fiercely, a fast horse came galloping, and on the horse came a man wearing silver-grey armor, his body covered in blood.
Before the people around could see who the person was, he rushed between Lin Ling and King Zhao and with one sword, he separated the weapons they were fighting with.
The buzzing sound of "ding" was so loud that the imperial guards could not help but cover their ears.
When he looked up again, he saw a tall figure on the horse. Wasn't this the great general Lin Mingyue?
Prince Zhao wiped the blood from a wound on his cheek and stared at Lin Mingyue with a ferocious look.
"What? Even the great general who guards the country has rebelled?"
Lin Mingyue sneered, "Prince Zhao, please forgive me. I am a rebellious son who is good at annoying others. But even if Prince Zhao is angry, I still can't say such things."
"Lin Ling prevented me from entering the palace with ulterior motives. I suspect he has colluded with the rebels!"
Lin Mingyue glanced at the embarrassed King Zhao unkindly, and spoke calmly under his sinister gaze.
"Your Majesty has ordered the imperial guards to enter the palace to protect you. Anyone entering the palace must be searched."
This sentence made everyone look at each other in bewilderment. Did Emperor Ming's oral order mean that he suspected the imperial guards?
King Zhao's face flushed instantly, "Did you really get the order from His Majesty?"
Lin Mingyue raised his eyebrows, "Your Majesty suspects that I am falsely conveying the imperial edict?"
Prince Zhao did not say anything else. He knew that Lin Mingyue would not dare to do so. No one dared to forge an imperial edict. It seemed that today's schemes by Lord Hu and Nan Heying, and even his plan with the prince, would all be in vain.
"The Imperial Guards will form teams of ten, search each other's bodies!"
"Yes!"
At Lin Ling's command, all the imperial guards quickly formed teams and searched each other skillfully.
After a moment, the voice of a guard soldier suddenly sounded.
"what is this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three soldiers around him jumped up and tried to break through and escape.
Lin Ling had been observing everyone. The moment the three men moved unusually, he thrust out the sword in his hand. The sword was so fast that only a trace of it remained, and it instantly cut the tendons of the three men.
At the moment when the three people screamed, the jaws of two of them were quickly removed, and only one person bit through the poison sac in his mouth at the moment when his hamstring was pierced.
Before Lin Ling could remove his jaw, the man had already vomited black blood and died.
