Now that I heard these few instructions from him, I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Master, but what is going to happen tonight?"

As if she wanted something possible, Lin's fingers hidden under the quilt clenched the corners of her clothes tightly, and her voice had an imperceptible tremor.

"Don't worry." Song Jingzhang was closing his eyes and pretending to recuperate when he noticed Lin's panic and said,
He raised his hand and touched Lin's hand accurately, and patted it reassuringly, "It won't affect you."

It's not that it won't happen, but it won't be affected.

After realizing the meaning of his words, Mrs. Lin couldn't help but feel even more panicked.

I couldn't think about anything else, my mind was filled with speculations about the unknown things that were about to happen.
I thought about it for a long time. The more I thought about it, the more worried I became. I turned sideways slightly and couldn't help but want to ask Song Jingzhang.

But when he turned around, he found that Song Jingzhang was breathing evenly and had obviously gone to meet Duke Zhou.

Mrs. Lin took a deep breath, and turned back while making trembling guesses.

While looking at the bed tent above his head with his eyes open, he listened to Song Jingzhang's steady and orderly breathing.

It wasn't until the second watch that I fell asleep.

In fact, it doesn’t matter what Song Jingzhang is.

As soon as the eldest prince Song Jingkang retreated, he turned around and made arrangements.
After returning to his palace, he changed into inconspicuous clothes and quietly left the city.
First, he walked around in a circle to hide from others, and then went straight to the western suburbs camp...

At the fourth watch, the palace was completely dark.
The masters and servants of each palace have fallen asleep, and there is silence outside the palace. The doors of every house are closed.

Outside the city gate, even the guards guarding the city quietly dozed off.

In vain, the sound of horse hooves came from afar,
Immediately following, a group of people headed by Song Jingkang came holding torches.

These guards are also used to being lazy and have their own secret methods.

His reaction was quick. As soon as the sound of horse hooves came, his eyes suddenly widened.

When they reached the city gate and saw clearly the visitor and the massive soldiers and horses, several guards looked at each other and quickly started to move.

Those who bring news, those who call for the commander, those who call for the commander, then take weapons, light fires and light lamps,
After finishing all this, Song Jingkang arrived with his troops.
"Open the city gate for me!"

Song Jingkang was riding on a tall horse, raising his hand slightly and pointing his sword at the few guards left guarding the door.

Coupled with the evil aura around him and the large army of men and horses behind him, they were almost scared to death.

However, although they were trembling with fear, the guards did not dare to be confused at this time.
Several people looked at each other and knelt down to salute in tacit understanding, "I am here to see His Highness Prince Jing. How come His Highness comes to the palace at this hour? It is not yet the time to open the city gate. Please invite Your Highness..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I say it again, open the city gate!"

Several guards gritted their teeth and said, "Wei Chen and others are also obeying orders. Please, Your Highness, please don't embarrass me and others."

"Huh, if you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink wine as a penalty." Song Jingkang obviously didn't have much patience, and waved his hand.
The deputy general behind him immediately picked up the bow and arrow behind his back and aimed it at one of the kneeling guards.
"call out!"

"Oh!" Before he could shout, the guard who was targeted fell down softly.

Seeing this, the remaining guards kowtowed hurriedly, "Your Highness Prince Jing, spare your life! Your Highness, spare your life, I and the others are also following orders!"

Song Jingkang didn't even look at anyone.
When the lieutenant saw this, he fully drew his bow and pointed it at the next person.

The guard trembled with fright, and shouted in even greater horror, "Your Highness, please spare your life, Your Highness, please spare your life, I will open the city gate right now."

After saying that, he stood up tremblingly and went to open the city gate.

The lieutenant who was drawing the bow looked at Song Jingkang again.

Seeing that he still didn't speak, he didn't dare to stop moving his hands at all.

"call out!"

The guard fell down in response.

Now the several guards were sure that they would die, and they hurriedly ran away. The lieutenant drew his bow again, pointed it at the running guard, and was about to let go.

"Bastard!" A loud roar sounded, interrupting the deputy general's movements.

At the same time, the city gate below opened,
Li Wanzhong, the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division in armor, hurriedly walked out and saluted Song Jingkang.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was my fault that I failed to discipline my subordinates properly."

As he said that, he turned to look at the guards who were brought over and scolded them loudly.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you long ago to open the city gate whenever you see His Highness Prince Jing? How dare you bastards turn a deaf ear to my words?"

The deputy general saw him speaking so harshly and shifting all the responsibility to these people. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and sneered disdainfully:

"Commander Li came at the right time. For such a big event, instead of arranging close friends to guard the city gates, we asked people like this to guard the city gate."

Li Wanzhong's eyelids twitched and he knelt down to apologize.
"It's all due to my subordinate's negligence, and I almost missed something important. Please forgive me."

After speaking, he looked fiercely at the guards who were shocked and speechless, "You bastards!"

"Sir, please spare my life. I have never heard of you giving me such a life..."

"How dare you speak so harshly!"

"alright,"

Seeing Li Wanzhong drawing his sword to kill a few people himself, Song Jingkang impatiently waved his hand to stop him.
"It's important, don't waste time."

"That's what I said," Li Wanzhong hurriedly retracted his movements, turned around and called for someone else, and ordered: "Take him down."

Song Jingkang watched it with cold eyes, and then asked: "Have the men and horses of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division been mobilized?"

"Don't worry, I've made arrangements a long time ago. I'm waiting in Xicheng. As long as I give the order, I can rush to the palace in an instant." Li Wanzhong handed over his hand.

"Okay!" Song Jingkang laughed twice,

"The chair is right in front of you, and the glory and wealth you want is also close at hand. All generals will obey the order,"

As he spoke, he raised his arm and waved his sword high, "Let's go!"

Following this order, the mighty troops passed through the city gate and headed straight for the palace.

But no one noticed that far in front of the team, there was a man wearing armor and dressed as a general of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who took the lead to enter the palace.

In the palace,

Song Jingzhang, who was not really asleep, heard the faint sound and opened his eyes suddenly.

Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door,

Zhao Youzheng's voice came, "Sir, Prince Jing personally led the western suburbs camp to the palace, and has now arrived at Xuanwu Gate."

Song Jingzhang's eyes moved slightly, and while he stood up, he asked Zhao Youzheng to come in and wait on him.
Lin finally fell asleep. She felt some movement beside her in her sleep, and she was still a little dazed.
When I heard Song Jingzhang's words, "Has someone gone to report to the emperor?", I suddenly woke up.

He looked at Song Jingzhang who was getting dressed at a loss, "Master?"

"Nothing, I'll go take a look."

"But in this chaotic situation, if someone with no eyesight hurts me, what should I do? Why don't we wait for the emperor..."

"It's okay, don't worry."

Song Jingzhang avoided Lin's outstretched hand and didn't even look at her.

After saying, "There are imperial guards guarding the prince's residence, take good care of yourself and your eldest sister," and strode towards the Xuanzheng Palace.

Qingshui Hutong,
After receiving the secret report from Gu Liufu in the afternoon and feeling more relieved about Zhu'er,
I fell asleep peacefully,

As a result, I was awakened in the middle of the night by the panicked sound of horse hooves.
