Water Margin people

Chapter 693 Capture the Dragon Banner
An inn next to the palace.

"Why is there no movement?"

Tian Hu looked in the direction of the palace anxiously. He waited here from the first day to the sixth day, just to wait for someone to make a move to fish in troubled waters, but in the end there was no movement at all.

"Brother, the emperor went to Long Live Mountain today, and he has no intention of returning to the palace. This is the best opportunity!"

Tian Bao looked at Tian Hu and said that the emperor took away a large number of guards when he traveled, and now the palace only has the most basic guards.

"Go in now?"

Tian Hu was a little hesitant, as a thief, he was still a little afraid of the palace compound.

"My lord, why should we fight for this thing?"

Zan Tongmei suddenly spoke.

"What do you mean?"

Tian Hu looked at Zan Tongmei and asked.

"My lord, let's just be ourselves, why take such a risk for that false name!"

Zan Tongmei looked at Tian Hu and clasped his fists.

"What do you mean? Are you afraid? We Hedong heroes don't want to lose face!"

Tian Bao was furious when he heard Zan Tongmei's words. At this time, someone retreated and disturbed the morale of the army.

"Face? Only the winner has face!"

Zan Tongmei looked at Tian Bao and said, "Tian Hu and his brothers are just too impatient. This trip to Tokyo is already risky enough. Now they are still asking for trouble by breaking into the imperial palace and capturing the dragon flag."

"You mean that Sun Lei, Fang La, and Wang Qing can have face, but we people in Hebei don't want face!"

Tian Biao said with an unfriendly expression, if they do nothing this time, they will be at the bottom of the two consecutive hero conferences. How can people in the world laugh at them?

"Your Majesty, so what if we let them show off? The court will suppress them, so we can develop with peace of mind!"

Yuan Zhongliang looked at Tian Hu and clasped his fists.

"Brother Yuan, isn't this to help us heroes from Hebei!"

Tian Hu pressed Tian Bao and Tian Biao's shoulders and looked at Yuan Zhongliang and said, his forces in Hebei were all put together, and Yuan Zhongliang brought Zan Tongmei and soldiers to vote, so he couldn't be too shameless.

"Your Majesty, we all live in the rivers and lakes. Why should we divide into Hebei, Shandong, Jiangnan, and Huaixi?"

Yuan Zhongliang looked at Tian Hu and said, Tian Hu's vision is very narrow, regional thinking is very heavy, and all his subordinates are from Hebei Jianghu.

"Don't recruit people from Hebei? Then how can we work together?"

Tian Bao said unconvinced.

"Sun Lei's Liangshan is so prosperous, why? His subordinates come from all corners of the country, aren't they all in one mind?"

Zan Tongmei said, since Tian Hu wants to do great things, he can't just rely on the people in Hebei. Since ancient times, how can anyone who has achieved great things rely on one place?

"You can't say that. We are just starting now, and the situation is different in different places. When doing big things, we are most afraid of being double-faced."

Tian Bao said.

Tian Hu has now occupied the land of the next state, and is about to capture the lands of the lower Hebei. Naturally, he also wants to recruit people, but they are very clear that their abilities are limited.

The Tian family is just a hunter in Qinyuan County, Weisheng Prefecture. Ding Wang, a member of the family, is proficient in martial arts and has a certain reputation. It is by chance that he has the power he has today.

Tian Hu is very aware of his ability, he can still control some reckless people, if someone is capable and ambitious, he will be emptied, and the foundation he has finally built may be handed over to others to make wedding dresses for others , how Zhao Song started his family is very clear to the world.

"Actually, it's not a risk. We've already bought the officer on duty and learned about the situation in the palace. The emperor is not in the palace tonight, and the guards have all gone to Long Live Mountain! Didn't the officer on duty say that the front hall is full of officials? Yes, there are often officials coming in and out!"

Tian Ding saw that everyone had a disagreement, and immediately stepped forward with a smile and said, he is a junior here, and speaking soft words will not hurt Tian Hu's prestige, but can also appease everyone.

After hearing Tian Ding's words, everyone's mood eased. It is indeed safer to bribe someone and get the information.

"Then let's do it tonight!"

Seeing that no one spoke, Tian Hu immediately made a decision.

After dark, Tian Ding came out of the sixth-rank official residence wearing a bought crimson color, pretending to be an official of the Youwen Palace.

Tian Ding made it all the way to Youye Gate. An official from the sixth grade cannot go through the main entrance of Xuande Gate without being summoned.

The guards at the door saw the official uniform from the sixth rank, but didn't stop him, and let him in directly.

These days, the guards have been turning around, and the year has not been good. Now it is dark and there are no officials on duty, so they directly ignore Tian Ding who entered the palace. Anyway, the back palace is separated from the front hall, and there are guards in the back palace. People are busy.

After entering the palace, Tian Ding let out a long sigh of relief, his heart was pounding just now, for fear of being stopped by the guards.

"Is this the palace!"

Looking at the magnificent palaces with lanterns hanging around him, Tian Ding only felt dizzy for a while, and an unreal feeling rose in his heart.

"If one day..."

Tian Ding suddenly had a thought in his mind, if Tian Hu conquered the world and became the emperor, then he would be the crown prince, and the future of the palace would be his.

"me……"

Tian Ding's back was sweating coldly, he was frightened by his own thoughts, but once the idea came up, he couldn't stop it.

Looking at the palace maids carrying dinner plates in the palace corridor in the distance, the eunuchs carrying lanterns, and teams of patrolling guards.Tian Ding's thought became more and more ingrained.

"Which hall are you an official?"

A few patrolling guards just came over and saw an official in crimson official clothes standing still in a daze, so they stepped forward to inquire.

"I'm a loose official of the Youwen Palace, and I have something to enter the palace!"

Tian Ding's heart tightened, and he quickly spoke.

"You Wendian is over there!"

When the guards heard that Tian Ding was young, they thought he had just been promoted, so they didn't doubt much.

"Thank you!"

Tian Ding clasped his fists in a hurry and walked towards the Right Wendian Hall, but when the guards walked away, he walked towards the Daqing Hall again.

There were indeed not many guards in the front hall at night, Tian Ding soon arrived at the side entrance of the Daqing Hall.

"Amitabha!"

Just when Tian Ding was about to sneak into the Daqing Hall, suddenly a Buddha's chant sounded.

"You are! Mingjiao Deng Yuanjue!"

Tian Ding immediately recognized the person who came, Deng Yuanjue had shown his face at the Liangshanbo Heroes Conference, but at this time Deng Yuanjue was wearing a yellow monk's robe, a red cassock, a monk's hat, and a compassionate face. eminent monk.

"Benefactor Tian is planning to do something tonight?"

Deng Yuanjue looked at Tian Dingdao with a smile.

"You are also going to do it tonight!"

Tian Ding looked at Deng Yuanjue warily, he had also seen Deng Yuanjue make a move last time, and this one in front of him was a master who could not be defeated by Liangshan Lu Zhishen.

Tian Ding unconsciously took two steps back and approached the palace gate. As long as Deng Yuanjue made a move, he would run into the Daqing Palace and shout, attracting all the guards here. They are all rebels. He did not believe that Deng Yuanjue was not afraid of death.

"Benefactor Tian, ​​what are you doing!"

Deng Yuanjue looked at Tian Ding's actions and knew what Tian Ding was thinking, so he asked quickly.

"Capture the dragon flag!"

Tian Ding looked at Deng Yuanjue and said that there is only one side of the flag, and there is no way for two people to separate it.
