The queen mother wants to go against the sky: General, please take your seat

Chapter 368 The man dressed up said, kill!

There were several corpses lying at the gate of Prince Qin's Mansion, blood dripped down the nine-story steps to the ground, and was stepped on by the fleeing crowd, so that bloody footprints were everywhere on the cobbled streets.

"The ones who died are all the guards of Prince Qin's Mansion." After carefully looking at the corpses in front of the door, the guards who got off their horses to examine the corpses ran to the horse of the Eldest Prince Zhe, and whispered, "There is no movement in the mansion right now."

"Be careful," Mr. Zhe told his subordinates, "Don't be shot in the cold."

"Yes," all the guards responded in unison.

Young Master Zhe got off his horse and walked up the steps.

"Eldest Prince," a guard asked, "Are we going in to kill someone from Prince Qin's residence?"

Young Master Zhe paused, turned to look at the guard and said, "We're not here to kill people, are we here to play?"

The guard who asked the question lowered his head in a hurry.

King Qin is the eldest son of the emperor, and the first prince of Emperor Xingyuan to leave the palace to build a mansion. The mansion is not only well built, but also occupies a large area, fully occupying half of the long street. At this moment, the street where the mansion is located , the fire is also soaring into the sky, people are running away in the billowing smoke, the cries of women and children are mixed together, it is like a scene of the collapse of the capital city and the rebel army entering the city.

People were concerned about fleeing for their lives, but not many people noticed that Mr. Zhe and his party had entered the Qin Palace.

The flames jumped over the high wall of Prince Qin's Mansion and rushed to the ground. People screamed and avoided. A man took off his coat and grabbed it in his hand, trying to put out the fire.But at this moment, the courtyard wall collapsed as if someone had stretched its muscles.

"what--"

The corpse inside the courtyard wall was exposed in front of everyone, and there were countless screams.

The opposite door of Prince Qin's Mansion is also the mansion that occupies the other half of the long street. It is the mansion of Prince Jing, the younger brother of Emperor Xingyuan.At this moment, there are piles of corpses in Prince Qin's mansion, and the flames are soaring into the sky, but there is no movement at all in Prince Jing's mansion.

The chief steward of Prince Jing's Mansion brought a lot of guards of the Prince's Mansion, and the servants stood in formation, not for arresting the assassins who rushed into Prince Qin's Mansion, but just to prevent the fire from reaching Prince Jing's Mansion.

"The voice is loud again." In the main hall of King Jing's mansion, Princess Jing said fidgeting, "Is it really okay if you don't go and see?"

King Jing, whose hair was already grey, sat on the grand master's chair in the main seat, waved at the prince standing in the main hall, and said, "Take your younger brothers back to the back house, if the assassin rushes in, I will die first." .”

As soon as King Jing said this, Concubine Jing, who could barely sit still, couldn't sit still, she stood up and said: "Send someone into the palace, find the Empress Dowager or Prince Rui, they have to take care of this matter. !” How can there be a reason for a family to sit together and wait for death?

The prince hurriedly responded: "Yes, father, it would be good to send someone into the palace to ask about this matter clearly!"

King Jing's other sons nodded in unison.

King Jing said: "Send someone to enter the palace? Even if the king himself goes to the palace, do you think it is the queen mother who will meet this king, or is it that Prince Rui is free to see this king?"

Princess Jing sat down again.

"My lord," a steward who went out of the palace to inquire about news rushed to the outside of the main hall and shouted out of breath.

"Come in," King Jing said.

The steward ran into the main hall, knelt on the ground and said: "My servant has found out clearly that Prince Qin is not dead. He wants to fight for the position. He sent people to kill Zhe's father and son, and even set fire to Zhe's other courtyard in the capital. There is also a group of Prince Qin's people who killed the Duke Huguo's mansion, and now the Duke Huguo's mansion is on fire, Yan Dongji led his troops to the Huguo Duke's mansion to save people."

These words shocked the concubine and the princes so much that they couldn't recover for a long time, even King Jing was so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time.

"Is Zhe Xingye dead?" Prince Jing asked loudly.

The steward shook his head and said: "This slave didn't find out, but I only found out that the eldest son of the Zhe family brought people into Prince Qin's mansion, the fire in Prince Qin's mansion was there, and he ordered people to set it off."

King Jing's family looked at each other in dismay, the timing was wrong.

Concubine Jing murmured: "Yes, it was the Qin Palace that started the fire first, right? Didn't it mean that it was the end of the severe winter that entered Qin Wang's house to set fire and kill people?"

"Before King Qin's mansion caught fire, did Zhejia's other courtyard in the capital catch fire?" The prince said confusedly, "King Qin killed Zhe Xingye and his son to do..."

Prince Jing wanted to say what King Qin did to kill Zhe Xingye and his son, but in the middle of the sentence, the son remembered that King Qin had a grudge against the Zhe family, and the grudge was not small.

"No," Concubine Jing shook her head stubbornly, "I went out to see the palace, and it was the first fire in the palace of Qin Palace."

King Jing leaned his back against the armrest of the chair, propped his forehead with his fingers, and sat there motionless.

Concubine Jing shouted: "My lord, you have an idea, my lord!"

"What about fighting for the country?" King Jing said in a low voice, "What can we do?"

Emperor Xingyuan even guarded against his own son, and the emperor brothers and brothers were even more targeted by Emperor Xingyuan. Even though King Jing was a prince, he had no real power in his hands.

"What do you think this king can do?" King Jing asked his wife and children.

No one can answer the question of disrespecting the king.

"Afterwards, whatever the Empress Dowager and Prince Rui say is whatever it is," King Jing said, "They said that it was the Zhejia Bieyuan and the Duke Huguo's Mansion that happened first, so let's talk about it according to this statement. , The courtyard is deep, it is on fire, and before the fire grows bigger, people outside the house can't see it, that's normal."

"Then King Qin?" Princess Jing asked in a low voice.

"I'm a prince with no real power, so I can't help him, and I can't harm him," King Jing said, "Is that why he wants to kill me?"

"Father," the son said worriedly, "Then what if the Empress Dowager and Prince Rui want you to speak out? If you want to tell me when the fire started in Prince Qin's mansion, if you say it according to their wishes, then you are the one." Offended King Qin?" Want to please both sides?How can there be such a good thing in the world?
King Jing was silent.

The screams and cries didn't stop for a moment, and came from outside the palace without any pause, making the owners of the palace anxious, but there was nothing they could do.

The eldest son Zhe was in front of a side door of the back house of the palace. In front of him was a group of masked men in strong clothes. They spoke and acted recklessly. The warriors he raises look like people in the rivers and lakes.

"Help, save me," a woman in mourning who was held hostage by these men dressed in strong clothes shouted loudly at the young master.

Young Master Zhe put his unsheathed saber against the ground, supported his body, and glanced at the person being held hostage, whether it was a woman or a child.

"Who are you guys?" The head of the well-dressed man pointed his knife at Mr. Zhe and asked.

There are nearly 30 men dressed in strong clothes, and there are exactly 20 people on the side of Mr. Zhe, including him and his guards. He was born as a serious warrior, so don't follow their dirty way."

The Zhefu guards roared in unison and rushed forward.

"Kill!" The leader of the well-dressed man pointed forward with the tip of his knife and roared.
