princess is everywhere

Chapter 96 Reinforcement

When the emperor rushed to the gate of the palace, he could hear the shouts of killing from a distance, and he didn't need to think about it to know that the battle was fierce.

This was expected, and the emperor was not panicked.He raised his head and looked around the city tower for a while, and when he saw that there was no flying arrow, he prepared to climb the tower himself.Seeing this, the guards around him were not at ease, they hurriedly searched for shields and held them in front, and then they surrounded the emperor and boarded the tower.

Unfortunately, as soon as the emperor boarded the tower, he heard someone shouting outside the palace gate: "Your Majesty was murdered by a traitor, and now he is dead, but you are guarding the gate of the palace and refusing to let me in. It is against the traitor who assassinated me." Partner?!"

The emperor laughed angrily when he heard the slapstick words - no matter when, there must be an excuse for raising troops, especially the matter of leading troops to force the palace needs to be high-sounding.These words are ridiculous at the moment, but if the palace gate is broken and the emperor dies, it is reasonable for King Xin to inherit the throne as the brother of the king.Especially since the prince is young and the country relies on the elder, no one would dare to disbelieve him even if he refers to a deer as a horse after he ascends the throne.

Of course, this was when the emperor was indeed in a coma due to poisoning and could not appear at the palace gate.

But right now the emperor was on the spot, so without waiting for the commander of the imperial army to meet him, he pushed away the imperial army in front of him, and shouted at the rebels below: "I am here, who told you that I am dead?" ?!"

The emperor is now in the prime of his life, and when he shouted with confidence, the entire scene of the siege fell silent for a moment.

The rebels below the city tower looked up at the people on the city tower. Even though most of them didn't recognize the emperor's face, the emperor's crown robe would never be mistaken.As a result, many people panicked, and the generals of Xiaoqiying and Bingmasi showed even more hesitation—they followed the king and conspired against the king for the sake of conferring titles on them, but the emperor's death did not happen. How can you not panic at this time when the blood is cooling down?

Seeing the emperor's appearance, one sentence shook the army's morale, and the face of King Xin, who was wearing armor, suddenly turned ugly.YouQi found that the two accomplices around him showed hesitation, and hurriedly reminded: "This is the end, can you all turn back?"

These words made the generals startled, but no, even if they were deceived by King Xin, they would have no room to turn back.

With no way out, it is natural to go to the bottom of the boat.The commander of the soldiers and horses simply rode forward, pointed at the emperor on the tower and threatened: "Your Majesty has died. This man is a fake. He wears His Majesty's crown robe and thinks he can deceive us. Don't listen to me, all soldiers. He is bewitching the crowd with his demonic words, and he has to rush into the palace gate as soon as possible, so as to punish the rebels and set things right!"

The emperor really laughed at the shameless words, and even wanted to ask who the rebel they were talking about was?But before he could open his mouth, a cold arrow flew towards him. Fortunately, the emperor was still agile, so he dodged it.

The imperial guards guarding the emperor were so frightened that they hurriedly raised their shields and surrounded them again.So the emperor had no choice but to look down from the gap in the shield, and as expected, he saw King Xin who had just put down his bow and arrow, and the stern and ruthless expression on his face.

Xin Wang failed to succeed with one arrow, and he felt a little regretful in his heart, but immediately he raised his voice and ordered: "Siege the city!"

The rebels were confused when they heard the confrontation between the two sides. As the low-level soldiers, no one cared about their thoughts, and no one gave them time to think, so they continued to attack the city driven by the superior.

A ladder was erected on the city wall, and the guards on the city tower stretched out their long poles to push it down.Or it was pushed too late, and some rebels climbed up the tower along the ladder, and then were hacked down by the imperial guards guarding the crenel.There are very few people who can really climb the tower, but the two groups of Xiaoqi Battalion and Bingmasi outside the city gathered together to climb the city wall one after another, which is enough for the imperial guards to be in a hurry.

This is more than that, in the capital, I don't know where Xinwang got the wood.Accompanied by the shouts of the rebels, they slammed into the palace gate one after another, making people's hearts tremble three points.

The city walls of the imperial palace are naturally thicker, and the materials used for the palace gates are also stronger than ordinary city gates.But even so, it can't make up for the shortage of the imperial guards guarding the city - the number of the imperial guards is already inferior to that of the Xiaoqi Battalion and the Bingma Division. Now that the two sides are in one place, if the imperial guards still have towers to defend, they might have already stepped up Can't stop.

The smell of blood in the air gradually became stronger, and the gray-black bricks were soaked in blood, turning into a rich dark color.

The commander of the Imperial Army finally found an opportunity to step forward, and after a hasty salute, the first thing he said was to persuade the emperor: "Your Majesty, there are many dangers on the tower, please return to the palace temporarily to ensure safety."

Just as the emperor was about to speak when he heard this, a rain of arrows suddenly shot up from the tower.Fortunately, the imperial guards who were guarding had been on guard for a long time, and quickly raised their shields to the top of their heads to protect them airtightly. Not only did they protect the emperor, but even the commander of the imperial guards got some credit.It's just that the sound of the arrow hitting the shield was endless, which made people's scalps tingle.

After the rain of arrows passed, the commander of the forbidden army became even more anxious, and persuaded again: "Your Majesty, please move."

The emperor finally had time to make a statement, he quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm here to advance and retreat with all the soldiers."

This sounded very morale-boosting, but the commander of the imperial army just wanted to scold his mother after hearing this—supervising the battle on the city tower as the emperor, boosting morale and boosting morale, but it is bound to need to assign more manpower to protect.The imperial guards were already stretched, and if there was another weakness that could be manipulated, he really felt headaches and tiredness just thinking about it.

Naturally, no one can persuade the emperor to go his own way, and besides, the emperor does not feel that he is a burden.After he finished speaking, he glanced in the direction of the south gate of the capital, and then drew out his saber amidst the shouts of killing.

****************************************************************************

The shouts of killing at the palace gate could not reach the Xuanshi Hall, but the people in the Xuanshi Hall might not be able to feel at ease.

After the emperor left, only Anyang and the queen were left in the palace.The anxiety in the queen's heart will not be less than that of Anyang, but as a queen, she is naturally much calmer than others. She calmed down the palace people with a few words, and then said to Anyang: "Young sister, don't worry, everything is up to you, brother."

Anyang nodded absent-mindedly, but he couldn't sit still, and would walk to the gate of the palace to have a look.I also know that I can't see the situation of the palace gate, but waiting for the unknown future is actually more worrying than facing the wind and rain.So waiting and waiting, Anyang finally couldn't wait any longer, turned his head to the queen and said, "Sister-in-law, I still have some things to do in the palace, can I go back first?"

The queen didn't expect that she would return to the palace at this juncture, and wanted to persuade her, but the friendship between the two was really limited.In addition, Anyang's anxious face didn't seem like he would listen to persuasion, so he had no choice but to swallow the extra words, and only told: "Then go back quickly, and be careful on the road."

Anyang managed to squeeze out a smile, nodded and said, "Understood, thank you for your concern."

Seeing that she was determined to leave, the queen sent her outside the palace, and then watched Anyang lead the palace guards she brought away.A group of people is mighty but also quite imposing, presumably there will be nothing wrong on the road.

It was just that the empress, who returned to Xuanshi Palace to wait for the news after seeing off the man, didn't know that Anyang led the man out of the empress's sight, then turned around and made a detour to the palace gate.

When Dong Ling saw the direction of Anyang's turn, he was in a bad mood.He wanted to reach out to stop him, but seeing Anyang's tense face at the moment, he was a little afraid, so he had to remind cautiously: "Your Highness, we should go this way when we return to the palace. We are going in the wrong direction."

These words are nonsense, there is no one present who does not know the way, and Anyang naturally knows it: "If you don't go back to the palace, let's go to the gate of the palace."

The accompanying people all guessed it, but when they really heard that the eldest princess was going to that dangerous place, many people were still afraid.As a result, more and more people were brave enough to persuade them, but unfortunately, no matter what others said, Anyang walked towards the palace gate without any hesitation.It's also fortunate that there are guards from the Imperial Army accompanying him, otherwise even if he dared not, someone would probably step forward to stop him.

Anyang didn't care what other people thought, he walked quite fast, but the palace gate was not close after all, it took a quarter of an hour to get there.And as soon as they approached, they could hear the shouts of killing outside the palace gate, and the air was also filled with a strong smell of blood.

Such a scene, even if he had never been there in person, was enough to scare people, and the accompanying palace people became more and more panicked.

However, the eldest princess, who was supposed to be the weakest, didn't change her face at this time. In fact, as a war horse, An Yang not only went to the battlefield in person, but also trampled the enemy to death with her own feet.The scene where she hasn't even seen any blood, really can't scare her.So she turned her head and calmly ordered to the imperial guards, "Go ahead and see what's going on right now."

The imperial army was not afraid of this, and quickly took orders to go, but they were taken aback as soon as they got to the top of the city—the fight on the city wall was more than fierce, the rebels crossed the city wall in batches, and now they were at hand-to-hand combat. Even His Majesty the Emperor, who was overseeing the battle on the tower, had blood on his sword.

Faced with such a situation, facing the rebel army who rushed in front of him, how could the forbidden army who came up to inquire about the news remember to report back?He drew out the saber at his waist and killed an enemy, and then he heard the emperor's deep voice boosting morale not far away: "Soldiers, don't panic, there will be reinforcements coming soon, and I have sent people to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing to mobilize troops." , just guard the palace gate.”

Hearing this is not reassuring. After all, who in the imperial army doesn't know how far the camp in the suburbs of Beijing is?It will be at least a day or two before people come, and the long-distance water cannot quench the near-thirst. How can the people who force the palace to rebel delay so long?

The rebels who forced the palace did not panic. After all, the Xiaoqi Battalion and the Bingma Division had rebelled, and the gates of the capital had been closed. How could it be so easy to get in and out?

However, when everyone only took the emperor's words as consolation, it turned out that the emperor's golden words were not a joke—the battle on the city tower was in full swing, but a horn sounded suddenly from a distance.The soldiers who have been in the capital for a long time may be a little unfamiliar with this sound, but no one will not recognize that sound, which is the signal for the army to gather and attack.

The two parties facing each other in front of the palace gate were stunned when they heard the movement, and then the expression of King Xin under the tower changed.But the emperor stood on the tall city tower, looked up, and could already see the banners unfurling in the distance.
