Chapter 240 Concubine 23
The footsteps stopped in front of the Yong'an Marquis's house, and a knock sounded after a while.
"Yong'an Marquis, His Majesty has summoned you, please come with us to the palace."
Although the person who spoke tried his best to cover it up, the toughness in his tone was still audible.
Earl Yong'an looked at the people behind him, pinched his fingertips and spoke with forced composure: "Why does Your Majesty come to me at this time?"
"Besides, for such an important matter, how could Your Majesty not send a eunuch from the palace?"
"Who are you exactly?"
The room outside the door suddenly became quiet, and the tone of the person who spoke also changed: "I didn't expect Earl Yong'an to be so smart."
The word "smart" seemed to carry a mockery, and the man continued: "Please come with me, Earl Yong'an, I have something to borrow."
I'll lend you your head to vent my father's anger.
The Earl of Yong'an and his wife walked behind the soldiers, swallowed their saliva and said with difficulty: "Wishful thinking!"
"Taking advantage of the residences of officials in the court is regarded as rebellion, do you want to rebel?"
The second son of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion outside the door smiled coldly, rebellion?
Today, they are going to rebel!
He raised his hand slightly, and there were sounds of knives and axes.
The sturdy gate of the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion was chopped open in less than a moment.
And those people finally rushed in.
But what was waiting for them was not the extremely panicked screams of the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion, but a series of well-trained volleys.
The front row drew their bows, and the back row was ready.
Under such a back and forth crossing, the dozens of people who broke in were all turned into corpses.
The moment the prince of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion saw this scene, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Fortunately, he was a little cautious and did not enter the door first, otherwise he should have been one of the corpses now.
"Gu Shichen, how dare you!" He was furious: "You are raising archers in the capital, do you want to rebel?"
This guy has military power, but where did these elite soldiers who are good at archery come from?
Seeing that those people did not break in, Yong'an Bo felt relieved and became much bolder.
"Bah, you traitorous minister and thief, you dare to talk about rebellion with me!" He shouted fearlessly: "You broke into the official's house in the middle of the night, it was already a rebellion?"
"If His Majesty knew, he would chop off your heads!"
The second son of Duke Fuguo sneered: "Your Majesty? Do you really think that the little emperor can protect you?"
"At this point, you are still so stupid!"
The expression of Earl Yong'an froze, as if he was extremely terrified: "You bunch of traitorous ministers and thieves, what did you do to His Majesty?"
The moment he spoke, those soldiers took advantage of the opponent's general to draw out their long swords.
After more than a dozen soldiers died, the second son of Duke Fuguo gritted his teeth and said: "Despicable and shameless!"
This guy actually distracted his attention and made it too late for him to give orders!
"You are still young, little boy!"
The gate of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is a natural barrier. The not-so-wide gate limits the speed at which the soldiers of the Duke of Fu can enter.
The soldiers guarding the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion only need to guard this entrance to prevent them from entering.
As for the three-person-high wall...
this is a barrier that ordinary soldiers cannot cross!
"Waste!" The Prince of the Duke of Fu, who was protected outside, saw this scene and couldn't help but curse fiercely.
Capturing the Yong'an Marquis seemed to him to be an extremely simple matter, but if he couldn't do such a simple thing, how could he let his father trust him?
"Before dawn, the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion must be captured!"
He gritted his teeth and gave a death order, and then walked towards the place where the royal family lived.
Compared with the Yong'an Marquis, it is more important now to bring back the royal child in the cradle.
As long as they control that person, they will control the whole summer.
One day, they will replace us!
Listening to the sounds of attack outside, Earl Yong'an realized that those people could not attack for a while, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of security.
"General, is my son safe?"
Thinking of his daughter who was sent out of the city by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to raise her baby a few days ago, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Thinking of General Gu's important task of attacking the South Gate, the general's lips twitched.
There is no more dangerous place in the world than General Gu.
But thinking of the general's entrustment, he could only coax Earl Yong'an seriously: "Don't worry, Lord Gu is very safe. There are thousands of people guarding him."
Thousands of people refer to his subordinates.
As for who is guarding whom, ahem...
adults can't be so honest as to not tell any lies.
After hearing this, Earl Yong'an felt relieved and was also very moved.
His Highness actually sent thousands of people to protect his daughter. He really values her!
At this moment, Gu Li, who was highly regarded, clenched the spear in his hand tightly when he saw the flames rising in the city.
"The time has come." Her tone was strangely relaxed: "Now, I will teach you how to make dumplings!"
As long as the city gates are closed, whether they are rebels or on the emperor's side, they will become dumpling fillings in their mouths.
"Listen to my orders, beat the drums!"
The moment the cold voice sounded, a huge drum sound that seemed to shake the sky rang out.
"Where does the drum sound come from?"
The ubiquitous drum sound stopped the fighting in the city.
The emperor, whose palace was about to be attacked, staggered to his feet from the dragon throne: "Drum sound?"
His expression was full of expectation: "But someone is coming to save me?"
He looked at the chaotic and bloody scene in the palace square, and suddenly laughed out loud: "I am the true emperor, someone is coming to save me!"
Outside the city gate, after the sound of Gu Li's drum sounded, countless heads suddenly emerged from hidden places.
The soldiers spit out the sticks that they had used to prevent themselves from making any noise, drew out their sharp swords and rushed towards the city gate.
All the fighting was silent, and the soldiers harvested the lives of the soldiers defending the city like ruthless machines.
Blood and fireworks splashed, dyeing the city gate the color of hell on earth.
Gu Li pierced through the throat with her spear and wiped the blood off her face. No one dared to get close to her.
No one was not afraid of this evil spirit that could defeat thousands of enemies.
Gu Li's extremely beautiful face looked a bit enchanting under the firelight. She looked at the dark sky and said lightly: "Tonight, there is only success or failure, not right or wrong."
It's done, Yin Shi will be the king of the world, and Daxia will become the most powerful country in the world.
If they lose, Daxia will be torn apart, and the world will fall into the strife of warlords.
By then, it will be a greater disaster.
And the soldiers who died tonight are nothing more than silhouettes in the torrent of history.
"Let's go."
When the last resister laid down his weapon, Gu Li kicked away the blood-thirsty General Zhao and said coldly: "Pass on my order, those who kill prisoners will be killed without mercy!"
"These are your compatriots, not your enemies."
Fighting for their masters is loyalty and bravery, but slaughtering unarmed soldiers is brutality.
She would not allow her mutiny to turn out like this.
