[Rebirth] Sovereign and ministers get along

With the detailed map drawn by Zheng Xuan, Zheng Du became a duck on the table.

During the day, when Shen Lanqing said something in front of the army, Yue Yu was naturally very willing to help his family, Shen Qing, "follow what he said". He could not only be courteous, but also find excuses to ask for benefits afterwards, and catch Zheng Chen by surprise. Why not do it?

That night, Sword Ghost tucked Master Xiao Shen in his waist and privately gave him a small medicine bottle, leading ten sword guards into the city through a secret road, while Yue Yu, Shen Qing, Lian Ruofei, and another general split into four groups. , led the men and horses out of the camp in the dark, and lurked to the moat of Zhengdu, waiting for the suspension bridge to open the city gate.

The cool blue fireworks silently illuminated the night sky. Outside the city gate, the suspension bridge creaked and connected to the moat. With a low voice command, they entered the city quickly, and the horseshoes stepped on the ground, neat and exciting. There was deathly silence, and when Zheng Chen found out that the city was broken and reacted, the gate of Zhengdu City had already changed hands for a long time, and the soldiers of Dayue had already rushed straight into the inner city without any effort.

I thought it would take a street fight to get straight to the palace, but I didn't expect Zheng Chen to be so decisive that he didn't even stop him, and directly withdrew all the troops in the inner city into the palace wall and defended to the death.

At dawn, the morning light broke through the darkness and sprinkled a ray of light, brushing over the emperor's golden armor and illuminating the graceful and solemn ancient capital.

Soldiers surround Zheng Palace, only the master inside the wall walks out of the palace gate and bows his head to proclaim himself a minister, so my lord can completely take the territory of Zheng into the palm of his hand.

Follow my lord to fight on the battlefield, help my lord to rule the world, establish frontiers, and secure people's livelihood...

It was his lifelong wish in his previous life, but things backfired, and his endless ambition was wasted under various suspicions and speculations.

I don't want to, I wished in the previous life, and I will get it in this life.

Even though she had already abandoned that ambition, at this moment, she still couldn't restrain the waves in her heart.

He raised his eyes and stared at my lord, his sharp eyebrows and eyes were still calm, and there was no joy or excitement in his expression.

His undisguised eyes fell on his face, which seemed substantial.

Turning his head to look back, he unexpectedly bumped into those eyes shining like stars, clear, warm, nostalgic, proud, and even a little bit excited...

The first time his Shen Qing looked at him so frankly was before thousands of troops, under the enemy's imperial palace, she unconsciously raised the corners of her lips and showed a smile.

There is no trace of the smile, but it is full of tenderness and affection that only the monarch and his ministers can understand.

In terms of Chengfu, maybe he is still not as good as my lord, but so what?

Wen Ran smiled slightly, rode his horse forward, stood side by side with my lord, and looked up at the closed palace gate: "It seems that those siege engines can still be of use."

"Not necessarily..." Yue Yu squinted at the increasingly red morning glow in the sky, and said calmly, "Shen Qing doesn't know, the Zheng family are all paranoid lunatics, and what they will do is beyond common sense. "

Shen Lanqing raised her eyebrows and said nothing, but there was a smile in her eyes after all——the Yue family is so strange, and the Zheng family is so lunatic, it turns out that there are no normal people in the Tian family.

In the palace bedroom, Zheng Chen's face did not show the anxiety or anger that the prince of a subjugated country should have. There was still an impeccable smile on his jade-like face. Zheng Chen opened his arms and ordered unhurriedly: "Change clothes!" .”

The lean waiter held the tray steadily, and the delicate maid carefully raised her hand to unbuckle her belt. Although she tried her best to pretend to be calm, her slender hands were still trembling imperceptibly.

Zheng Chen lowered his eyes, looked at the palace maid with slightly pale lips, and chuckled: "What are you afraid of?"

"Servant..." The hands trembled more and more, and the delicate maid looked more and more pitiful.

Zheng Chen sighed softly: "Useless things will only add trouble to Gu."

"Your Highness, please forgive me!" The maid pleaded for mercy, but Zheng Chen only frowned slightly before being gagged and dragged out.

"Makeup, you come." The silent young man appeared silently, stretched out a pale hand from the black cloak, and meticulously helped Zheng Chen change into the tea-white brocade robe, tied his hair again, and then bowed his head and retreated. to the side.

After carefully checking his appearance in front of the bronze mirror, Zheng Chen got up and asked makeup: "Have you done what I told you?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go." Stepping up, walking towards the golden palace, Zheng Chen chuckled as if gossiping, "I hope that my father didn't tell Zheng Xuan about the secret road in the palace, otherwise, I will be lonely today." I can only stay in this palace and be a staunch prince who would rather die than surrender."

"Makeup won't kill His Highness."

"I don't care about life and death, but if I can't pull Zheng Xuan to go to the underworld together with Gu, I will die alone." The elegant smile does not show the slightest warmth. What's so good? Gu pampers him like that, but he betrays Gu again and again for him."

There was a wave of fluctuation in the wooden eyes, but it quickly returned to calm. The pale young man gathered his wide cloak and repeated softly: "Makeup will not let Your Highness die."

"Makeup."

"Makeup is here."

"Xiao Nanbei's temperament may seem eccentric, but he is not a heartless person. Dayue's commander-in-chief, King Yi, is his favorite junior. Asking him to take Yue Xin to the palace wall to threaten Dayue's retreat is only a temporary measure. Today, my university Zheng Qiyun is about to perish, Gu is just doing some dying struggles, if later on there is really no way to escape, and you die alone for the country, you should surrender, don't do stupid things."

"Do not."

"Heh! You know my thoughts best. Even if you follow me, you will only hinder me on Huangquan Road. Why bother? Why don't you go back to your Nanzhai, so that you can be your leader."

"Makeup won't kill His Highness."

The gate of the palace was close in front of him, Zheng Chen didn't speak any more, he released the messenger arrow, and pushed the gate open with a smile.

Xiao Nanbei stood on the palace wall with his sword in his hands: "One hour, after one hour, this matter will have nothing to do with the old man."

Xiao Nanbei made it clear that he could keep King Rui safe, or let Hua Qiniang exorcise Yue Yuan later, but Yue Yu had to wait an hour before ordering the attack on the imperial city, so that he could pay off the debt with peace of mind. Dazheng's royal family's favor, otherwise he can only draw his sword and bully the younger one with the big one.

To put it bluntly, it is worthwhile to wait for an hour, even a day.

If Xiao Nanbei could really stop interfering, I don't know how much effort would be saved. Even if Zheng Chen took the opportunity to lead people to safely evacuate from Zhengdu, so what?

Dazheng has long been in the pocket of Yue Yu, the emperor of Ding'an. From today, there will be no more Dazheng in the world, and only Dayue will be left in the Kyushu of the world.

Calmly glanced at the handsome and confident man on the palace wall, Yue Yu held back the hand that reminded him to calm down, and slowly ordered: "Shen Qing, order the troops to rest where they are, and listen in an hour. Order to break the city."

After Yue Yu negotiated with Xiao Nanbei, he didn't have a word to spare.

After Shen Lanqing passed on the military order and returned to my lord, she raised her eyebrows and took stock of the situation.

With a smile on his face, he took advantage of this rare opportunity to get close to Xiao Nanbei, gossiping a few words, just talking about his wonderful master often talking about his uncle, it can be seen that he misses his uncle very much, now the master is in the rear barracks, if Xiao When the uncle is free, he might as well go to the back camp with his nephew later to surprise the master, but he was deafened by the sudden repeated loud noises.

The roof collapsed, thick smoke billowed everywhere, and the luxurious and solemn palace turned into a sea of ​​flames at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The frightened crying within the palace walls, the screams before dying, the painful howls under the pillars... mixed with the scattered sounds of running away, there was a mess in an instant.

How do you still need to attack?

The fleeing palace people had long since ignored the orders of His Highness the Crown Prince, opened the palace gate in panic, rushed out in swarms, and rushed for their lives.

Finally won, but there is no sense of accomplishment at all.

After the Dayue soldiers entered Zhengdu, without killing an enemy, the first order they received was to rush into the ruined palace to save people.

The chaos in the palace quickly subsided, and the officers and soldiers in charge of rescuing people worked nonstop for three full days before they were able to sit down and take a good breath.

The hearts of the people were appeased, and the capital had already been garrisoned by Dayue soldiers.

However, under such martial law, the palace was searched three times, and many concubines were caught, but no man from the Zheng family was found.

Emperor Zheng, Crown Prince Zheng, and Prince Zheng Gong never saw anyone alive or dead.

It wasn't until the fourth time that I found an entrance to a secret passage under the golden throne.

There are many traps in the secret road, and ten waves of ordinary soldiers were sent down, but all of them went and never returned.

Shen Lanqing intentionally went down to find out, but was stopped by Yue Yu's cold eyes, and honestly returned to my lord to be his personal valet, with a teasing smile on his face, my lord sent out five swords with a cold face Guard down.

Of the five sword guards, only four came back in the end, and all of them failed.

In desperation, Shen Lanqing had no choice but to write a letter in handwriting, asking the little Taoist priest to go south to crack the mechanism.

The little Taoist came very quickly, and arrived in Zhengdu in only ten days.

After eating the wine, Shen Lanqing smiled and instructed without any notice: "Take a rest tonight, and start cracking the mechanism tomorrow, otherwise Lan Qing will never sleep well."

"Little gentleman..." The little Taoist rubbed the golden scroll in his hand, and teased with a long voice, "Is it you or the emperor who can't sleep well?"

"As a minister, the king worries about the work of his ministers, and the king humiliates his ministers to death. Lan Qing is a caring person..." Putting down the wine cup, Shen Lanqing smiled, "After Zheng Du was destroyed, the Zheng family and the three thousand guards all disappeared. After repeated investigations, there is still no news. The emperor has a plan and is not worried about it. However, Lan Qing is not up to date, and he always feels uneasy in his heart. Therefore, it is naturally Lan Qing who cannot sleep well..."

"Does the little Taoist have any questions?"

"Hmph..." squinting his eyes and humming coldly, the little Taoist seemed to have thought of something, and then smiled again, "Whatever you say..."

"Little gentleman is so considerate of your emperor, it's a good thing for the poor Taoist, so that Shen Mutou can completely die of his thoughts on you."

"..." Rubbing the dancing corners of her eyes with her fingertips, Shen Lanqing got up and straightened her robe, "You rest earlier, I'll call you tomorrow morning, and we will go to the secret passage to dismantle the mechanisms together."

"Hey! Don't rush away..." The blue shadow shook, and the little Taoist stopped in front of Shen Lanqing, put his shoulders on his shoulders, and said with a smile, "Isn't it okay if the poor Taoist doesn't mention Shen Mu?"

"..." Shen Lanqing laughed, and cursed with a smile, "If you have anything else to do, you crazy Taoist, you might as well just say it, don't talk about it!"

"Hey! The little gentleman who knows me!"

"Speak the truth."

"Little gentleman, if it's your private matter, the poor will naturally have nothing to say, and you will go through fire and water without hesitation. However, this matter is clearly a matter of the state of Great Yue, and the poor can't help in vain..."

"?" Shen Lanqing raised her eyebrows slowly, signaling the little Taoist priest to continue.

The little Taoist leaned forward, put his arms around Shen Lanqing's neck, put it close to Shen Lanqing's ear, and said solemnly: "However, don't worry, little gentleman, for your sake, the poor Taoist will naturally not be with your family. The Emperor Lion opened his mouth wide..."

"Pindao doesn't want gold and silver, and he doesn't want any rare things, as long as your emperor agrees to one thing, such as..."

"If the little Taoist priest has any conditions, why not tell me directly, why bother to let Shen Qing pass the message..." The emperor who had searched for this person calmly pulled Shen Qing from the little Taoist priest's hand to his side, and silently squeezed her lips tightly. Liang's hand, not expressing joy or anger, said, "As long as it is reasonable, I will not refuse."

"That's fine..." Looking across the folded sleeves, the little Taoist sat back on his seat with a smile on his face, "The poor Taoist has only one request..."

"Your Majesty, please dismiss Yin Hong from office and ransack his home and exile him for three thousand miles."
