"Your Highness, the Shenwu Sect has arrived!"
With a cry, Su Ziji opened his eyes, and white light appeared in his eyes, clusters swaying like flames.
After three breaths, he slowly calmed down and returned to normal.
The raindrops pattered and washed against the roof of the car, and the horse driving the car struggled to move forward.
"When times come, heaven and earth all work together to transport heroes without freedom."
"Am I lucky now?"
When a group of iron troops approached the Shenwu Gate for a mile, Su Ziji just thought for a moment, then stood up and issued an order: "The entire army is arranging their armor and equipment and preparing for battle."
"yes!"
After getting off the bike, there was heavy rain in front of us. Each team of Yulin Guards prepared individually, and the response of the team was remarkable, which made Su Ziji secretly sigh.
It had only been thirty years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Although the military front was a little less vigorous, it was a little more strict and had the intention to dominate the world.
"high speed!"
The breath from the sky gradually became clearer, and the dense rain tended more towards the front, while the top of their heads gradually became thinner.
After the formation of more obvious rainbands, it obviously blocked the distant view.
In just a moment, Su Ziji saw that the preparations were completed and ordered again.
"March!"
Thousands of troops rushed directly to the palace city in darkness.
The palace is close at hand.
"who?"
Lanterns were hung at the city gate and torches were burning, illuminating the area nearby on rainy nights.
"Are you the Habayashi Guards?"
The guard leaned on the tower and looked down. He couldn't see clearly through the rain curtain, but it vaguely seemed to be the flag of the Yulin Guards.
"You are here? Is there any imperial edict?"
When arriving at the palace gate, no military orders can be used. Only the emperor's decree will take effect. If the guards had not been notified earlier, the guards arrived with the decree.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to open the door during this night, even if there is an imperial edict.
Unless the emperor comes in person.
This is the fundamental center of the world. Everything has procedures. If there is a decree, the palace gate will be notified in advance. If there is no notification in advance, the palace gate will be opened as soon as the decree token arrives. This is all country people's nonsense.
Please, transfers between provinces and counties are not such a child's play!
Seeing that the guards were alert, eunuchs immediately stepped forward, accompanied by people holding umbrellas.
"My grandson has been ordered to serve the king and enter the palace to protect your majesty. There are military talismans and sacred decrees here. Our family is the imperial envoy! If you don't go and report it quickly, don't miss the important event!"
"Great grandson, imperial envoy!"
Hearing these two words, the guard was startled. He looked around and saw the guard of honor approaching slowly from behind.
Guards may not understand anything, but they must not understand the guard of honor. This is indeed the guard of honor for the grandson!
The guard's breath was suffocated. Grandson?
Those who can become bodyguards are all central guards, and among other things, they all have some political acumen.
At this glance, his head suddenly buzzed and his face turned pale. The eunuch below did not hear clearly what he said.
"Something big happened!"
Looking closer, the Yulin Guards, with Taisun's ceremonial guard as the center, were tightly guarded. They were full of soldiers holding weapons, halberds, bows and knives, and they rushed out with murderous intent.
"Let me report it to Qianhu." The guard forced a smile. He was a junior guard and was not notified to welcome the grandson, but maybe he was overthinking it.
It's a matter of confidentiality, and maybe I can't know it. Everything must be informed to Qianhu for a ruling. If Qianhu opens the door, it means that the emperor has already summoned him.
With this thought in mind, the guard turned around and left. Soon, the armored man, surrounded by guards, stood on the tower and looked down.
"I did follow the order to welcome the great emperor, but I can't see clearly through the rain. You can go down and have a look for me." The general pointed at one person and said.
"yes!"
Someone hung up a large rattan basket and lowered it down with a thick hemp rope.
The man didn't wait for the rattan basket to hit the ground, but he turned over and jumped. He took a few steps closer and saw Su Ziji clearly.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, our family has been waiting for your Majesty's order for a long time!"
Listening to the shrill voice, when I raised my head, my face was white and beardless, and there was no Adam's apple - another eunuch.
The queen indeed captured the city.
"Your Highness! The matter is urgent!" the eunuch shouted.
"Your Majesty has been seriously ill and fainted several times. Tonight, he was hit by King Qi again. He was so anxious that he barely woke up after taking the elixir. He could not speak and could only speak with his fingers."
"The imperial doctors all said that they were afraid that something unbearable would happen soon, so His Majesty specially ordered you to enter the palace urgently, just to pass the news on to you!"
"My Majesty is afraid that you will go astray and be deceived by traitors, so she has ordered your servants to wait at each door."
"Fortunately, I finally waited for you!"
The eunuch cried with joy and tears, but his voice was not low, which immediately caused the surrounding guards and Yu Linwei to change their colors.
The emperor was seriously ill and suffered from fainting. This was not something that happened in a day or two.
There are many noble sons of Kyoto in the Habayashi Guards, and they have heard about this matter for a long time.
At first, I was still worried, but after hearing too much, I gradually became numb... Didn't you survive so many fainting moments?
But this time, I couldn't stand it anymore.
But when you think about it, it’s not surprising.
Since ancient times, it has been difficult for emperors to live long.
I have been through the battlefield, I was always sick, and now I am no longer young, and I also encountered a rebellious son who forced me into the palace... It is reasonable that the anger attacked my heart and led to a stroke.
Since the emperor was ill, it was reasonable to order his grandson to enter the palace and succeed him.
only.
I thought it was King Qin's business, and I didn't want to hide it all the way. Only now did I know that it was the Yulin Guards who wanted to protect the grandson's enthronement.
Some of the original disharmony has been explained at this time...
I don't know how many people, while secretly breathing a sigh of relief, became alert again.
They are all under the Shenwu Sect, not to mention the rebellious officials and traitors...right?
Su Ziji looked at the wall door. Although he was a little relieved, the guard who was still not completely relieved nodded his head repeatedly.
There are many entrances and exits in the palace, and the Shenwu Gate is extremely strict. In fact, every guard is a human being and has his own opinion. If the grandson enters the palace late at night and still leads troops, if it is any other situation, it can be directly regarded as treason.
All the will weapons and talismans have no effect.
But it might be possible that the King of Qi rebelled and the Emperor suffered a stroke.
Of course, what's more important is that with the testimony of Qianhu and his father-in-law who were on duty, even if someone has doubts, it will be difficult to question it.
The military order was like a mountain, and soon, the palace gate slowly opened, and the firelight illuminated it. Hundreds of people stood in formation behind the gate, with the guard at the head. By the firelight, they could identify the grandson standing in the crowd at a glance.
Feeling relieved, he immediately came forward alone to pay his respects.
"At the end of the day, a thousand households of the Shenwu Guards came in and came to see His Highness the Grand Sun." This man's etiquette was very solemn and meticulous.
"Your Highness, the Shenwu Guards are loyal to Your Highness, and the traitors and traitors will be punished by heaven!" Xu Jinzhi said in a deep voice.
If it weren't for the fact that even if the door was opened, many guards would still have doubts, and Gu would all believe it.
This person must be the empress's general, but the emperor's own army, it is already a big deal to install a few people, and it is basically impossible to control the guards.
The guards are all hereditary and serve as officials from generation to generation, so it is impossible to bribe them.
But that's how power plays. As long as you are suspicious but unable to question, let alone resist, the outcome is within your control.
Su Ziji stepped inside and asked in a deep voice.
"What's the situation ahead?" Shenwu Gate, like Yunlong Gate, is the innermost defense line of the palace city, and the palace gate is directly next.
Once the palace gate is broken, you can go directly to the Yangxin Palace.
"Back to Your Highness, logically speaking, the guard of the Yuque Gate has received the emperor's favor and will definitely not let down Your Highness." Xu Jinzhi said in a deep voice: "It's just the King of Qi who rebelled. I don't know how many people colluded with him. Maybe there will be rebellious ministers." Thief, you would rather fight to the death to prevent His Highness from seeing His Majesty, so don’t be careless!”
"Is it?"
"Go and knock on the door immediately. At this time of crisis for our country, if there is any obstruction, we should call it a traitor!"
Su Ziji nodded and said coldly.
What Xu Jinzhi said just now actually meant that the guard was a close confidant of the emperor and would never be able to open the door normally. He would have to attack the enemy with swords and swords.
The bodyguards and soldiers are all personally controlled by the emperor, and cannot be inserted by others or penetrated by needles. No matter how capable the empress is, it is incredible to have Xu Jinzhi, and it is impossible to even get through the palace city.
"However, this was within the prediction!"
"King Qi attacks the palace, Gu Ye attacks the palace!"
Su Ziji glanced over, and saw a bright flash, the sky split into two, a loud bang, and then darkness returned, with only torrential rain pouring down.
"It's just that two rebellions occurred in one night. How will future generations record and evaluate them?" Su Ziji showed an icy smile.
