Chapter 589 Palace Chaos ([-])

This habit of carrying clairvoyance with me seemed useless in the past, but today I found that it is still useful.

"Senior Ji, how are the concubine and the little grandson?" An official stood on tiptoe, struggling to grab the railing and look out, but no matter how hard he tried to open his eyes, he still couldn't see clearly what was going on there.

Holding up his clairvoyance, Ji Chongyan moved his direction, and said: "The Crown Princess is holding the little grandson, although her expression is a bit panicked, but she doesn't look hurt."

Oh!It is a good thing that the princess and the little grandson were not injured.Some officials breathed a sigh of relief, at least there is still one emperor's heir.

He was just relieved, and Ji Chongyan, who moved his clairvoyance, suddenly let out a "huh".

His "huh" immediately shocked the hearts of all the officials present.

"Huh" what?What happened?
"Someone has come around behind those crossbowmen!" Ji Chongyan raised his clairvoyance and said, "But the number of people is not too many..."

Before he could finish speaking, the clairvoyance in his hand was snatched away.

The officials who were watching Ji Chongyan's reaction were so shocked that they almost didn't jump up: "General Li, what are you doing?"

Dare to take something from the hands of Prince Ji, who has His Majesty's favor... It's the first time I've seen someone so bold!

General Li, who snatched his clairvoyance and looked at the place Ji Chongyan pointed to just now, had no time to pay attention to these courtiers in the future, he just raised his clairvoyance to watch what happened there, his brows furrowed deeper.

"The number of people is too small. Although the crossbowmen are not powerful and are easily subdued, the sudden appearance of these people will definitely cause a commotion. It will be difficult to say that they will be under random arrows." General Li said with a frown.

Because of his Longxi Army's troubles, he has been aggrieved by the fact that he has no chance to contribute to His Majesty's great cause. Now there are no generals in the city, and even Fushunhou and his son have gone to Dengzhou. Is it possible for him to sit in Chang'an City? Is it really necessary to let all these imperial heirs die?
No, Li Cheng is determined not to let these things happen!

Clenching the clairvoyance in his hand, General Li walked to the giant crossbow in the middle of the high platform, took a deep breath, then threw the clairvoyance aside, and grabbed the crossbow suddenly.

The officials watching this move couldn't help but exclaimed.

It really is General Li!This strength is truly overwhelming...

"Boom!" With a loud sound, General Li, who raised his crossbow with one hand, staggered forward, and was smashed to the ground by the giant crossbow and his people!
The splashed dust and smoke billowed, making everyone cough.

When the dust and smoke cleared, everyone looked at General Li who was smashed to the ground with bow and bow, and hurriedly stepped forward to help General Li up.

"It's really a mighty general who can lift mountains and surpass the world!" Zhong Hui, who was sitting on a stretcher beside him, said sarcastic remarks as always to offend people. He stretched out his hand and pointed to the big tunnel that was smashed by General Li, clapping his hands and laughing. , "What a big pit!"

His words successfully drew General Li's angry gaze.

Zhong Hui didn't take it seriously, and pointed at General Li's hanging arm, and said, "If you can't draw a bow with one hand, why don't General Li wait until your hand is ready?"

In terms of the ability to piss people off, Zhong Hui has never lost!

Wait until your hands are ready?What time is it now?When the hands are ready, those people have already been buried in the ground!
General Li rolled his eyes angrily, and almost fainted.

At this moment, a group of officials who were leaning on the railing and holding up their clairvoyance suddenly exclaimed again and again.

"Come up, come up!"

"There is a group of imperial guards going around to the back!"

"The crossbowmen have been restrained... oh, not good!"

……

With an exclamation, all the officials standing on the high platform of the Yanwu Building turned pale with shock.

No matter how careful he was, the crossbowmen around him fell silent one after another, and the remaining crossbowmen were also aware of it.

On the palace wall, swords, lights and swords are everywhere.

Unexpectedly, within the clairvoyant round mirror, a crossbowman in the corner suddenly climbed to the side of the crossbow, put his hand on the crossbow, and the three arrows in the crossbow were fired at the same time, and they all avoided the princess and the little grandson shot at the broken wall.

"Not good!" The official holding the clairvoyance exclaimed, the three arrows had passed through the broken wall and shot towards the crown prince and the little grandson who were facing away from the broken wall.

Seeing that the crossbow arrows were close at hand, the crown prince and the little grandson were about to splatter blood on the spot.

Many officials exclaimed and couldn't help covering their eyes with their hands.

No matter how scheming and scheming, it is still unbearable to see a lonely woman and an infant child splashed on the spot with their own eyes.

Bold officials such as Wang San, although their faces are also shockingly ugly, but after all, they will not make a move to cover their eyes and dare not look.

The crossbow arrows are close at hand, and they are about to shoot through the two people behind the broken wall...

With a "swish", a crossbow arrow pierced through the slanted stab.

Several crossbow arrows met before the broken wall, sparks sparked between the pure steel and pure iron.

The trembling princess holding the little grandson only heard "ding ding ding" several times in her ears, and when she realized it, she looked back, only to see three crossbow arrows being intercepted from mid-air, one The large feather arrow was firmly nailed to the broken wall behind her.

The arrow tail swayed, making a slight buzzing sound.

The arrowheads nailed into the broken wall were scattered and cracked, and the entire broken wall collapsed.

Everything happens in a blink of an eye.

Holding the little grandson in her arms, through the dust and smoke all over the floor, the princess raised her head and looked up the Yanwu Building.

A figure holding a huge bow and crossbow was leaning on the railing and looking here.

Even though she was so far away that she couldn't see the appearance of that figure at all, but the figure and posture made her recognize the person who shot him at a glance.

Is... is it him?The princess was in a trance for a while, and the little grandson in her arms started to cry at this moment. The princess, who was awakened by the crying, quickly stood up holding the little grandson, and ran to this side: " Hurry up! Pass it to the imperial physician!"

One arrow intercepted three crossbow arrows...

Seeing Ji Chongyan put the huge bow and crossbow in his hand back to its original place with a calm expression, all the officials present quieted down unanimously.

After a strange silence, Wang San was the first to come back to his senses. He slapped his palm suddenly, and laughed loudly: "Okay! Your son is a hero, he really is a hero born a young man, quite like His Majesty back then!"

This praise awakened others, and echoes echoed everywhere.

"My lord is right! Your son is a hero!"

When this giant crossbow was in the army 20 years ago, no one except His Majesty could pull it. That's why they were so excited when they saw General Li lift it up with one hand just now!

In fact, if General Li could pull the crossbow, no one would be surprised at all.After all, Li Datou in Longxi is also a fierce general with extraordinary strength.

But it just happened to be silent, and before everyone could react, the one who pulled the crossbow was not the fierce general in the eyes of everyone on weekdays, but Ji Shizi.

The prince Ji in front of him actually has such abilities and methods?Why have I never heard of it for so many years?

But after the sudden surprise, after thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem strange that he can pull it.

Behind this favorite minister of the son of the season, his father, grandfather An Guogong was a heroic general when he was young, and his mother's Zhao family produced many brave generals. Your Majesty and General Zhao, which one was not such a powerful figure back then?
It's strange that there is no brave general under such a background!

Wang San squinted his eyes, as if he had thought of something, looking at Ji Chongyan who made the shot, a trace of inquisitiveness flashed in his eyes!
This Prince Ji has been hiding his clumsiness for so many years?Only now did he realize that this game of chess was getting more and more interesting!

Some people hid too deeply, if they didn't jump out on their own initiative, he would almost be mistaken.

in this way……

While he was thinking, an official at the side reminded him: "My lord, the Crown Princess is here!"

Everyone realized that although the palace chaos was over, the aftermath had only just begun.

Or, it can be said that the real palace chaos didn't even begin until this time.

……

……

"Brother Yan," An Guogong put his hand on Ji Chongyan's shoulder, coughed twice, and said, "Go back first!"

At this time, the more... the more we need to avoid suspicion, it is best to let Wang San and others handle these matters!

Wang San, who was discussing countermeasures with a group of officials under his command, at this moment, paid more attention to An Guogong and Ji Chongyan in the corner.

He seemed to have been paying attention to the movements of the two of them. Hearing the conversation between the two, the smile on Wang San's face deepened a little: "The Duke of the country is right! My son... the Duke of the same country, let's go back first! Such things Let the subordinates handle it!"

After finishing speaking, he said to the guards beside him: "You two send the Duke and the son out of the palace and into the carriage!"

The two guards who followed Wang San from the beginning to the end bowed their heads and said "yes".

The officials under him moved their lips when they heard the words, and stopped talking.

It wasn't until the two guards sent An Guogong and Ji Chongyan off the Yanwu Building that the officials couldn't help but said: "They really don't need to send the two of them to send the Duke of Guo! Just now, Ji Shizi's hand... It can be seen that it is a powerful one, so don't worry about it." Safety. But here, if someone slips through the net and pretends to be dead, and suddenly jumps out to assassinate me while we are passing by, there is no one to stop me!"

"It doesn't matter!" Wang San didn't care when he heard the words, he just pointed to the remaining imperial guards who came out of the hall, and said, "Isn't there imperial guards here? I will have guards to protect me when I wait!"

How can such a small matter be compared with those things?Wang San squinted his eyes, looked at the princess who had already come into sight, and said, "Quickly send the imperial doctor to treat the little grandson!"

……

……

A gap was torn open from the tightly closed palace door, and someone came out and got into the carriage.

Only then did the guards protecting him turn back to the palace, and the palace gate was closed tightly again, cutting off everyone's temptations.

"So, what are you going to do now?" After getting into the carriage, An Guo asked Ji Chongyan, "Brother Yan, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"

Ji Chongyan said: "Grandfather, let's take a look first! A palace mess has turned into such a mess, Yang Yan's purpose must not stop there."

As he said that, he pulled out the chessboard in the carriage and placed it between the two of them, saying: "Since he is not hesitating to use all the chess pieces, he must give it a go. Therefore, there should be a second move."

It is precisely because there is no chance of winning in a frontal confrontation that the army resorts to tricks.

"I think...his final layout is about to fall out of the water!"

While speaking, a fast horse passed by the slow-moving carriage, and the gust of wind brought up the curtain of the carriage, allowing the two people in the carriage to see the person riding the other.

"The messengers are dispatched!" An Guogong watched the backs of the messengers rushing away, put down the curtain of the car, looked at the calm Ji Chongyan in front of him, and sighed, "Brother Yan, this time... we really have to start Already!"

……

……

Within the imperial city.

After half a day of counting, fully half of the [-] forbidden soldiers were either dead or injured, which can be described as a heavy loss.

All the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Office had already been summoned, and even the apprentices came on stage to bandage the wounds of the imperial guards.

This is not to say that the imperial physicians are slack, but that there are more important people who need to be healed by the imperial physicians at this time.

"How is the little grandson?" Several officials stood outside the hall and waited anxiously.

The apprentice who trot out had an extremely pale and ugly face: "Little Taisun is not in good health! Not only is he seeing the wind, but he is also frightened, and he can't get over it. The teacher said that the adults should know what they are doing, and they can't help it." Do your best!"

This is a sick cat-like body, so it's no wonder he can stand it!

In a word, the faces of the waiting officials were even more ugly, and they subconsciously glanced at the corpses covered in white cloth in the temple.

Among the random arrows, His Highness the Second Highness, the folk princess and His Highness the Crown Prince were all shot into hedgehogs, even if Hua Tuo was still alive, he would not be able to save them.

The stand-in was seriously injured and on the verge of death, he admitted his identity as a stand-in, and he closed his eyes when he watched them make the messenger rush to the front line to report the message.

Mr. Su was seriously injured, and he didn't know if he could be rescued.

Right now, if the only news that is not bad news is...

"Concubine Yang and Beauty Yang escaped by using secret passages." The palace maid came to report and said, "Many secret passages have been found in the palace, leading to many palaces. I didn't know that Concubine Yang and Beauty Yang were hiding there for a while. In which palace?"

Mostly for His Royal Highness and the folk princess, these two are not that important, so that they didn't chase after them to find their whereabouts, but let them escape for the time being.

"Then look for it quickly!" Wang San heard this, and hurriedly said, "Yang Meiren still has an emperor's heir in her belly!"

The imperial doctor obviously meant that the little grandson couldn't make it through!Right now, naturally, it is important to quickly find the emperor's heir in Yang Meiren's stomach!As for the fact that Yang Meiren is Yang Yan's daughter and the emperor's heir is Yang Yan's granddaughter, His Majesty needs to be considered, not them.

……

……

The palace is in chaos, even if you are hiding in the secret passage, you can still hear the sound of the palace servants and servants searching outside.

"What happened? Did you find it?"

"no!"

"Then look elsewhere!"

……

These conversations made Yang Xianzhi, who was shrunk in the secret passage, terrified, hugging her stomach and looking helplessly at her aunt—Concubine Yang.

Just now, the Second Highness and others broke in, and when they were protected by "Your Majesty", it was the aunt who signaled her to keep quiet and led her to hide in the secret passage.

Therefore, the two of them didn't know the situation outside until now, but at this moment they heard the palace servants and maidservants searching outside, and their hearts became more and more disturbed.

"Could it be that those two people succeeded in forcing the palace?" Yang Xianzhi looked at Concubine Yang and asked cautiously, "Auntie, what should I do?"

Hiding from the day until night, the moonlight shone on Concubine Yang's face, bringing an inexplicable chill.

"What should I do?" Looking at the pale Yang Xianzhi, Concubine Yang's eyes fell on her tightly hugging belly, and she suddenly smiled, "Xianzhi, are you asking me what to do?"
