Chapter 194: God's punishment! The palace is in ruins
Xu Wenrong immediately ordered people to notify the hidden forces of the Xu family in Kyoto to rescue Zhou Shaoyu, a man of great fortune, and they must do their best to save him.
I just don’t know if it’s too late.
Kyoto.
Emperor Xuanwen was in the imperial study, and the left prime minister was standing in the distance with his hands hanging down.
"The Dali Temple is under your jurisdiction, and the Dali Temple Chief is also your man. The weather has been hot and dry recently, so it is normal for floods to occur." Emperor Xuanwen said lightly.
The Left Prime Minister responded with a "yes", his heart sinking to the bottom of the water. He understood what Emperor Xuanwen meant. He decided to set fire to the Tianlao and burn Zhou Shaoyu to death.
He killed Zhou Shaoyu, and his whole family was finished.
Ever since Prince Xi's rebellion failed, even though he and his daughter, Princess Xi, wrote a letter of severance, Your Majesty still did not let him go.
He closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and knelt down to thank the emperor: "I obey your order."
Leng Luo escorted him out of the Golden Palace. The Left Prime Minister suddenly knelt down with tears streaming down his face: "Commander Leng, please show me a way forward..."
Leng Luo was unmoved, he helped him up, and said without emotion: "No, I am just a small commander, I don't deserve your kneeling."
The Left Prime Minister staggered and was half-pulled and half-supported by Leng Luo as he was escorted out of the palace.
Seeing the Left Prime Minister getting on the carriage, the lantern on the carriage swayed, and then it turned around and returned to the Golden Palace.
"Sent away?"
"Leave."
"What did he say?"
"He asked me to show him a clear path, but I refused. Your Majesty gave him the clear path."
Emperor Xuanwen was reviewing a memorial. After listening to him, he glanced at him, waved his hand and said, "Go and take a look. Hmm, take care of the tail."
Leng Luo knew that His Majesty had instructed the Left Prime Minister to kill Zhou Shaoyu by catching fire, and then let him kill the Left Prime Minister's family.
Leng Luo took the order and strode out of the palace.
He went to the stable to get his horse, rushed out of the palace, and went back to his home on the way, but it was only for a very short time, just enough time to drink a cup of tea, then rode out again to go to the Heavenly Prison.
Tianlao is located in Yiyang, more than 100 miles away from Kyoto.
The emperor would not keep a place like the Heavenly Prison under his nose.
Leng Luo rode his horse as fast as he could towards Yi Yang, with his ears perked up, but no one was following him.
50 miles out of the city, he took out a pigeon from his arms and released it.
Your Majesty said that the daughter of Xie Anfeng is either a peerless virtuous woman or a demon who brings disaster to the country. She is smart, but if she is not used properly, she will be a disaster.
Leng Luo thought of half a year ago when he went to the Marquis' Mansion to announce the imperial edict. The first and third wives were all in a panic, but Xie Anfeng's daughter didn't care at all. She calmly told her father and brother to eat and drink, saying that it was not a violation to eat and drink enough.
At that time he felt that this woman was extraordinary.
She was truly extraordinary. After only three months of exile, she had actually developed a curved plow and was able to eliminate the locust plague so thoroughly that she even drew the scene of the locusts being destroyed.
The entire court was shocked.
He had also seen it, and just by looking at the painting, he felt like surrendering.
The Crown Prince promised to restore her freedom, but His Majesty had different ideas. If such a person were to regain her freedom and become someone else's wife, it would be a great loss to the court, or even a threat.
When Leng Luo arrived in Yiyang, he did not go directly to the Heavenly Prison, but to a secret courtyard.
The yard is not his, but a contact point for the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Huang Xie, a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, came out and took the horse reins.
"Your Majesty has a new decree?"
"Well, the left prime minister will cause the prison to leak."
"Then, Prince Zhou is gone?"
"Left Prime Minister, please accompany him." Leng Luo's words were extremely cold, and he stuck out his tongue and licked the Yanling knife.
Huang Xie nodded, grabbed the goose-feather knife, covered his face with a cloth, and went to wait near the sky prison.
Leng Luo stayed in the yard, waiting for Huang Xie's signal.
But he did not wait for Huang Xie's signal, but received a signal from the palace, which was an emergency signal that something big had happened in the palace.
It was a red signal unique to the Embroidered Uniform Guard, which meant that His Majesty the Emperor was in great danger, perhaps even his life.
The signal was sent from the palace and then relayed along the way.
He immediately rode his horse and went to the Tianlao first. Huang Xie was lying in ambush on the roof near the Tianlao. He also saw the signal, and then saw the deputy commander riding a horse and galloping towards him.
He immediately showed up: "Master Leng, what's going on?"
"Your Majesty is in danger. Oh, by the way, the prince is in the prison?"
"Yes, I am confronting the Dali Temple Minister."
After hearing Huang Xie's words, Leng Luo immediately entered the Heavenly Prison. The prince stood in front of Zhou Shaoyu, and the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple knelt helplessly on the side.
Seeing Leng Luo coming, the Dali Temple Minister and the Crown Prince looked at Leng Luo with hope.
"There is trouble in the palace, and we are told to return quickly." Leng Luo said simply, "The matter here, His Majesty has given an oral order: Hand it over to the Left Prime Minister."
The Dali Temple Minister breathed a sigh of relief and said to Leng Luo gratefully, "Then let's go back quickly."
The prince was worried, but his father's affairs were more important than anything else, so he had no choice but to leave Dong Qi behind to look after Zhou Shaoyu and strictly forbid anyone from harming him.
"Whoever dares to harm Prince Zhou will be killed by me."
He hurriedly took a carriage to Kyoto.
Leng Luo left, and Huang Xie stayed, waiting for the Left Prime Minister to kill Zhou Shaoyu, and then he would kill the Left Prime Minister.
The Crown Prince, Leng Luo and the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple met the Left Prime Minister halfway, exchanged a few simple words with each other, and then parted ways.
Several people rode at full speed to the palace. The prince was injured by Zhou Shaoyu. The carriage was bumpy and he frowned in pain.
Only after entering Kyoto did they realize how serious the incident was.
There was chaos in the imperial city. Leng Luo knocked on the city gate and said that the prince had returned to the city. The guards saw that it was really the prince and were so scared that they quickly opened the door.
Leng Luo, the Crown Prince, and the Minister of Dali Temple marched straight in, and the entire capital was in chaos.
There was a commotion on the streets, with people shouting at their doorsteps. The palace was surrounded by the Embroidered Uniform Guards and the Imperial Guards, and the imperial physician was running around carrying a box.
The entire palace was littered with huge stones. The Qinzheng Hall (Jinluan Hall), the Imperial Study, the Hanyuan Hall, the Imperial Kitchen... were all smashed into ruins!
Even the walls of the imperial city, which were so thick, were collapsed and only ruins remained.
Because the emperor rested in the empress's palace at night, the Fengyi Palace was particularly devastated. Not only did the palace collapse, but all the side halls in the palace collapsed. At the most dangerous moment, Emperor Xuanwen pulled the empress over to serve as his human shield.
Despite this, the big rock seemed to have eyes and smashed Emperor Xuanwen's legs and spine, and also smashed his head. He didn't die, but he didn't have much life left.
The queen was also unconscious, the eunuchs and palace maids were fine, but the eunuch beside the emperor was smashed to death.
The East Palace was also smashed into ruins. Liu Qi followed the prince to Yiyang Prison today and escaped a disaster, but he was so scared that he clasped his hands together.
I silently said in my heart: "Thank God for your great mercy. Fortunately, I followed His Majesty to see Prince Zhou, otherwise I would have died."
Thinking of Prince Zhou, he suddenly paused. Why did a huge rock fall from the sky in such a beautiful palace?
Did something happen to him?
When he thought about it this way, he felt that this was the case.
The King of Nanhai sent his son to Kyoto, where he stayed for ten years and became a lawless playboy. Now that he should go back, he has to kill him...
They also persuaded Miss Xie to help relieve the locust plague. During the period when King Xi was in control of the government, the King of Nanhai traveled thousands of miles alone to help the king.
This merit does not count, but it costs lives.
Is this a disaster... a punishment from God?
Liu Qi felt that Emperor Xuanwen was too unkind. If he, the crown prince, had been in power, this disaster would not have happened.
Leng Luo was only a deputy. He rushed to Kyoto after receiving the signal. The commander said that there were imperial physicians to save His Majesty, and the Embroidered Uniform Guard should make every effort to find out who was responsible for the disaster in the imperial city.
Finally everyone left and the commander left Leng Luo alone.
Looking at Leng Luo coldly.
Leng Luo is as steady as a rock.
"Leng Luo, His Majesty treats you well, don't do anything foolish. I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you forever."
Leng Luo saluted respectfully: "Yes, thank you for your advice, Commander."
I hope that Prince Zhou’s people can arrive quickly and rescue the prince before the Left Prime Minister sets the fire.
Huang Xie, I'm sorry!
