Chapter 677: Who's Opening the City Gate
(If I hadn't met you, would I have been there?) How many monthly passes are there? Why not vote for this book? )
Breaking through the obstruction of Baishi is only the first hurdle that Zhu Chengqi has passed, and it is also the easiest hurdle.
Next, there are two more important things to do for their group, the first is to get out of the city smoothly, and the second is to escape Chen Xiaoting's pursuit.
Originally, Zhu Chengqi planned to let Fu Yanchun send troops outside the city to respond, but in the end Zhu Xiuzao vetoed.
The reason is very simple, because once the army is dispatched, then Luyang City will definitely block the four gates again, so the difficulty of escaping will increase dramatically.
Not only that, the dispatch of Fu Yanchun's army can easily provoke Chen Xiaoting's nerves, which may make it difficult for the Anyang Wang family to leave the palace gate.
"Hurry up, the sooner the better!" Zhu Xiuzao commanded in the carriage.
In fact, he was also quite nervous, this was a big gamble on the future of the whole family, and they could only win and not lose.
Zhu Chengqi knew this very well, so he took the lead and hurried to the gate of Beicheng.
They live in the northern city, so the north gate is the closest, and there is little foot traffic on the street, so they can pass through quickly.
And when Zhu Chengqi and his entourage rushed to the direction of the city gate, Liu Jianping and Yu Baishi followed as quickly as they could.
Soon, the gate of the North City appeared in front of Zhu Chengqi's eyes.
But what made him feel bad was that there were three times as many guards at the city gate today as usual, and nearly a hundred soldiers appeared here.
According to Zhang Mingfeng's subordinates, today is a drill to close the city gate as quickly as possible in an emergency.
The flow of people at the North City Gate is small, and it is really the most suitable place to arrange drills here.
This is called the plan can't catch up with the changes, how could Zhu Chengqi expect that the city gate that was deserted in the past would be so lively today.
But the matter has come to this, no matter what the situation is ahead, he can only fight with iron.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Zhu Chengqi shouted loudly.
Under his orders, the guards unfurled the banner of the Anyang Palace, and generally speaking, this thing can still suppress these ordinary soldiers.
Sure enough, when they saw that it was the palace trip, the two hundred households and several general banners who led the team were immediately intimidated, and the prepared words of reprimand could only be swallowed back into their stomachs.
Get out of the way, but the gate is only now closed, and there is a horse rejection stake in front of it.
These things, which were originally used to guard against sieges, were all exposed in front of Zhu Chengqi, and he had the urge to vomit blood.
At this moment, I only heard Zhu Chengqi say: "Move these things away!" ”
Now that he had reached the gate of the city, he shouted at the soldiers.
In order to increase the enthusiasm of these people to do things, Zhu Chengqi even took out the silver from his arms and threw it directly at the soldiers present.
The guards next to him also took out silver taels, which were originally used for emergencies.
"Take these bounties and open the city gates!" Zhu Chengqi said loudly.
No one would have thought that they could get so much money for the drill, and the soldiers were all excited.
The city gate is indifferently opened, and it has to be slippery, so that the nobles of the palace can be satisfied.
So under the command of the hundred households, the soldiers quickly flashed to the sides, and some others went to move the horse rejection stakes.
With the stakes removed, the next step was to open the gates, which was a laborious task.
The city gate is heavy, but it can only be pushed by a dozen people standing down, so the speed of opening is a little slow.
But seeing that there was a bright light at the city gate, the hope in Zhu Chengqi's heart suddenly magnified, and he was about to escape.
But at this moment, I only heard a shout from behind: "Don't open the door, never open the door!" ”
The person who came was Yu Baishi, the head of the second stall, and at this time he was rushing to the city gate with five men, panting.
Hearing Yu Baishi's voice, Zhu Chengqi's good mood that had just changed was immediately shocked again.
Yu Baishi then said: "I am the second head of the eunuch line of Dongchang Town, you must not open the city gate, otherwise it will be a big crime!" ”
"Kill them!" Zhu Chengqi immediately made a decision.
Yu Baishi must not be allowed to speak again, because after listening to what he said, the soldiers' movements to open the door have stalled.
Seeing that the palace guards rushed to kill, Yu Baishi and the others were not wood, so they turned around and ran into the distance, who let them not bring a guy!
Now they can only pray that Chen Qianhu, who received the news, can arrive early, so that they can really stop Zhu Chengqi's pace.
Yu Baishi fled, and he fled into the alley of the household, and although the guards had a car, it was not easy to chase after him.
So the guards didn't chase very far, and turned back.
"Hurry up and open the door!" Zhu Chengqi scolded again
The two hundred households in the city gate hesitated, although the silver is good, but it must be a life flower.
These people in the army, who are supervised by the people in Dongchang, naturally know Yu Baishi, the second-tier leader.
And they also knew that Dongchang was responsible for monitoring the palace, and they said that they couldn't open the door and let them go.
In the face of the hesitation of these two hundred households, Zhu Chengqi was in a hurry, so he asked the guards to open the door in person.
But doing so was easy to exacerbate the conflict, and he only brought twenty guards, which could not withstand the siege of nearly a hundred armed soldiers.
"Hurry up and open the door, the princess has a serious illness and is in danger...... If you need to go out of the city for treatment, open the door quickly! Zhu Chengqi scolded sharply.
Although his expression was hideous, the hundred households were shaken, they were just ants in front of Zhu Chengqi, how could ants fight against Wang Shizi!
"Open...... Open the door! One of the hundred households ordered.
After the soldiers looked at each other, they continued to push the city gate, two inches ...... One Foot ......
The city gate opened wider and wider, enough for one person to pass, Zhu Chengqi stared at the gate with a nervous expression.
At this moment, Yu Baishi appeared on the roof of a house and shouted loudly: "Stop, stop...... Do you want to die? ”
has already offended the Anyang Palace, at this time, Yu Baishi is not afraid of offending more, so he naturally tries his best to make a trip.
"Letting the vassal king out of the city is a great crime of extermination, and you don't want to die...... Don't you even want the lives of your own family? Yu Baishi continued to shout.
I have to say that his shouting worked again, at least the movements of the soldiers' hands stopped again.
This is really fatal, Zhu Chengqi regretted not bringing a bow and arrow at this time, otherwise he would have shot Yu Baishi to death directly.
Now that he had climbed to the roof, it was even more difficult for the guards to hunt him down.
"The princess is in an emergency, and His Royal Highness is too late to ask for approval, so you hurry up and open the door...... After His Royal Highness returns, I will go and explain to Gonggong Cao that I will not blame you! ”
"Not only that, as long as you open the city gate, you will be the princess's savior, and the palace will be rewarded at that time!" Zhu Chengqi's thoughts were racing, and he was almost going to say that black was white.
The city gate moved slowly again, Yu Baishi was extremely anxious, what else could he continue to say!
But at this moment, I only heard a scolding voice from the city tower: "Who is opening the city gate?" The bastard got out of the gates? ”
