Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 692 Breaking into the Palace (3)
"Hurry up and report to the commander!" One of the soldiers finally came to his senses.

Several people panicked, and hurriedly went downstairs to tell their superiors.

When the team under the city tower stopped, Shen Zhao had already boarded the city tower with the officers and soldiers of the Jingwei commander.

"Shen Tongzhi!" The soldiers on the tower raised the lamps and illuminated the other side of the moat, showing their superiors the shocking scene under the night.

Shen Zhao's heart moved, he already knew who was coming, the army was stationed under the imperial city, looking around, at first glance, the crowd was densely packed, like a roaring and sweeping sea tide.

On the saddle of a red horse in the middle, the young man took off his upward-facing light robe and jade belt embroidered with dragon patterns, and lost all the elegance and dignity of the past. Now he is wearing a cooked copper helmet, a willow leaf armor on his chest, and knee-length iron boots sandwiched between him. On both sides of the horse's belly, there are straight and strong thigh muscles, and the whole body is lined with bronze and steel bars. A pair of handsome eyebrows fly into the temples. Perhaps the soldiers next to him are holding lights, and the eyes are red, like a female beast in the night. .

Seeing the old man on the tower, the man's polite voice spread outside the empty imperial city: "Shen Tongzhi, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here to be safe."

Shen Zhao frowned: "There is no decree and no edict, the King of Qin led his troops to the imperial city late at night, do you know that he has already committed a felony?"

Xiahou Shiting joked loudly: "The last time we met was when I came back from Yanyang, and you and I received awards together at the Sanqing Palace. I didn't expect that in just a few months, Mr. Shen's title of Commander and Co-knowledge , has come to the way.”

Shen Zhao's eyes darkened: "The lower officials didn't expect King Qin to stay on the road and cheated. If King Qin doesn't have any legitimate reasons, please leave as soon as possible!"

I only heard a voice from the front of the army: "Who said there is no legitimate reason? King Qin wants to see the prince when he enters the palace."

"Then it should be passed on first, and then enter the palace according to the order. It is a capital offense to rashly lead troops into the palace in the middle of the night! Emperor Daxing just passed away, and it was the moment of mourning under martial law throughout the country. King Qin's behavior is even more sinful." Wait." Shen Zhao followed the sound and saw that the person who spoke was Shi Yao'an, and he shouted.

The officers and soldiers of the Jingwei Command Division on the city tower clenched their knives and arrows and stood on guard.

"This king is waiting for Zigong to leave the palace, so as not to offend the emperor." Under the tower, the man raised the reins and urged the horse to walk a few steps. Discuss urgent military matters."

"Did you hear that? Tongzhi Shen, please open the city gate!" Shi Yaoan was impatient.

The guards shouted: "Open the city gate - open the city gate -"

In the middle of the night, bring your own soldiers into the imperial city to discuss military matters?Can wolf ambition be more exposed//naked?The officers and soldiers on the city tower held their knives and arrows tighter, waiting for an order from their superiors to expel people.

"I don't know what military secrets King Qin and the prince have to discuss? Why are they bringing troops?" Shen Zhao remained calm.

"Since it's a military secret, Shen Tongzhi asked the king to announce it to the world under the city tower, so that everyone knows about it?" Xiahou Shiting sneered, but his eyebrows were tightly covered, even if the lights were bright among the army, He couldn't tell what he was thinking, "As for why he brought the troops,——to get up early tomorrow, my wife will be buried with the late emperor in the mausoleum, and this king wants to personally lead the troops to see him off."

There was no trace of sadness in the eyebrows, but she spoke calmly and eloquently.

Shen Zhao's palm loosened slightly, and the scabbard also slipped down a few inches. About the funeral, I vaguely heard that someone in the palace was going to be buried the day before yesterday, but I didn't have time to confirm it, but now I heard that it was true.

The first emperor actually wanted to bury the medical girl from Ziguang Pavilion, and Yun Wanqin happened to be one of them.

At this moment, a young adjutant's immature voice sounded from Shen Zhao's side, full of panic: "Shen Tongzhi, Princess Qin is really on the list of burial... Tomorrow she will die! What to do? What to do..."

The person who spoke was Wei Xiaotie. Ever since he was recruited by the Shen family army and came to the capital from Yanyang, he followed Shen Zhao. Shen Zhao was promoted to be a commander and a colleague because of his meritorious service in suppressing the chaos in Yanyang. , Wei Xiaotie also followed him as his deputy.

The upper and lower towers are quiet, and the air is suffocating.

Just as the officers and soldiers of the Jingwei Command Division were on the verge of launching an attack, they heard the voice of their superiors in the night.

"Open the gate."

Open the city gate?

The officers and soldiers must have heard it wrong. A soldier couldn't believe his ears: "Open the city gate? Qin Wang Sima Zhaozhi's heart is well known. It is clearly malicious! You can't believe it. Ah! If there is any mistake in the palace, we will all be held accountable, even nine lives can't stop us!"

Wei Xiaotie understood what Shen Zhao meant.

Damn it, death is death, Princess Qin is her own savior, and she has helped him in the future, and even Yan Yang and him have lived through life and death, this life belongs to Princess Qin!

He scolded impatiently: "If you tell you to drive, you can drive! What a waste! King Qin said it was an emergency military plane, if it is delayed, we have to finish the game!"

"Open!" Shen Zhao said with a heavy tone.

Although the officers and soldiers were astonished, they couldn't resist their superiors, and a key-keeper officer had to go down to unlock the lock.

With a creaking sound, the nine gates leading to the heaven were continuously cast and opened slowly.

"Thank you Shen." Xiahou Shiting made a gesture, and the soldiers poured into the gate of the city like a tide.

Standing on the city wall, Shen Zhao quietly watched the team under the city tower stepping over the moat and driving straight in. He heard the anxious sighs of the officers and soldiers, and Wei Xiaotie's probing voice: "Shen Tongzhi, Princess Qin will be okay?"

The only one who can save her now is him.

In the open space outside the Jinluan Hall, Qin Wang's personal soldiers stopped.

The hall was brightly lit, and there were many guards standing at the door. They had already made preparations for tonight, waiting for someone to come. Although they knew that King Qin might come tonight, they wanted some resistance, and it would never be so easy to enter the city.

Unexpectedly, the commander of the Jingwei who was in charge of the imperial guards opened the city gate directly.

Shi Yao'an glanced at the Golden Luan Hall on the steps: "It seems that the prince has indeed planned a long time ago, and he is really waiting for us to take the bait tonight."

When Xiahou Shiting's lips moved, how could he not guess it.

After all, the father couldn't tolerate him, after all, he couldn't let him go, who might be a prince from the north.

Even if he died, he still had to leave a game and capture himself.

Use her death to force him to lead the army into the city so that the prince can take him down in one fell swoop.

However, the father is indeed wise in this point. Even if he knows that this is a layer of net, he has to come in.

Inside the hall, an elderly eunuch hurried down the steps and ran over to preach: "The prince has invited King Qin to enter—"

Xiahou Shiting got off his horse and walked straight to the Jinluan Palace alone.

The icy iron boots rattled on the stone steps beside the white jade dange, the steel strength was cold and hard.
