(Please watch the movie network start!) 🔥 Ad-free HD playback! Please tell each other! On June 8, the 11th year of the Great Cause, late at night. Feiyun Temple in Yanmen City, the emperor is temporarily there.
The queen's personal palace maid trembled and knocked on the queen's door, and the shouts of killing outside were higher and higher, and the people in the city had been transferred to the city wall. It was at this time that in the temporary palace of the emperor of Feiyun Temple, most of His Majesty's pro-army guards were also urgently transferred to the city gate. Even these palace maids and eunuchs, there were only a few left in Feiyun Temple at this time.
As soon as the palace maid entered the house, Empress Xiao immediately stood up and asked, "What happened at the city gate?" Did the princess send it out? ”
This palace maid is the emperor's personal palace maid, tonight the defenders in the city went out of the city to attack the Turkic camp at night, and Princess Izumo will also take advantage of the chaos tonight to escort out of the city to Liaodong. The queen wanted to send the princess in person, but Yang Guang was very worried about the queen going to the city again because of the incident that hit the arrow last time. In the end, the queen had to send her own palace maid to see her off, but she didn't expect that tonight at the city gate was a killing sound, and not long ago, even most of the guards and palace maids and eunuchs in this temporary palace were urgently transferred to the city.
Empress Xiao didn't know anything here, and she was restless and anxious for a long time, and when she saw the personal palace maid coming back, she couldn't wait to ask.
The palace maid said tremblingly, "The princess has been sent by His Majesty to take Ashina and Every's son to escort five hundred Western Turkic guards out of the city. ”
"What's the matter with the shouts of killing outside the city?"
"General Li of Zuotunwei led his troops out of the city, as if he had fallen into the Turks' scheme. It turned out that the Turks who had left earlier had not really left, they were hiding in the vicinity. Just now, when General Li attacked the Turkic camp, the Turks fought back and almost surrounded General Li. Later, the Turks had left their soldiers and horses, but the Turks came out from the east. Desperately attacking the eastern wall. And"
The palace maid remembered the tragic battle she saw in the city, and her face was still pale. Fear in the heart.
"And what?" Empress Xiao asked eagerly. At this time, Empress Xiao's delicate and beautiful brows couldn't help frowning tightly.
"And just before the slaves returned, there was a group of Turks who had already deceived the wounded cavalry out of the city, and when they returned to the city, they suddenly grabbed the west gate, and now the defenders in the city are desperately blocking the Turks from entering the city."
"What? Has the West Gate been lost? Xiao Huang was shocked, and his whole face had turned pale.
The palace maid nodded and said, "The city gate has been taken away by the Turks. However, the head of the city was still in the hands of the defenders, and now the defenders of the city were fighting with the Turks at the city gates. ”
Xiao Huang walked anxiously around the room with his steps. The handkerchief in her hands was twisted around by her unconsciously. At this time, her entire brow was already furrowed, and her eyes were full of worry.
When you think of the city, you can't hold it. The Turks were about to storm the city. Rao is Queen Xiao was gentle and elegant in the past, and her temperament was like a flower, and she couldn't be calm at this time. The Turks are all wolves of the steppe, if it falls into their hands. That's all over.
"Quick, take the prince and the Zen master, and then gather all the palace maids and attendants here."
After waiting for the palace maid to go out, the queen took out a delicate dagger inlaid with gold and jade from the delicate jewelry box on the table next to her and held it tightly in her hand. I thought to myself, if there is a whatever. used this dagger given to her by Yang Guang to commit suicide, and it would never fall into the hands of the Turks.
The maid of the palace got the order of the queen. Hurried to the prince. Although Feiyun Temple is the largest temple in Yanmen, it is not too big because the temple is in the city. At this time, most of the palace maids and eunuch guards in the temple were transferred to the city gate, and the temple was quiet and a little scary.
As soon as she turned a corner, the palace maid happened to run into the group of people who had just climbed in through the wall at the back door of the temple. Before the palace maid could speak, one of the men had already covered her mouth. A cold knife was grazed around her neck, and a deep voice rang out, "What room is the emperor in?" Take us or kill you." ”
The palace maid looked at the man covering her with big bright eyes, dressed in the standard armor of the Great Sui, and looked more completely like a person from the Central Plains, completely different from those fierce savage steppe people. Even if he was kidnapped by the man like this at this time, he still didn't seem to feel the feeling of fear. …,
"Tell me where the emperor is, or I'll kill you first." The man's eyes widened, the blade in his hand was already tightly pressed against her neck, and a bone-piercing cold air came, making the palace maid finally come back to her senses. He gestured to the man's hand with his eyes, and the man finally came to his senses.
"If I let go and you dare to scream, then I will kill you right away."
One of the people on the side was a little overwhelmed, such a trivial matter, why did the boss grind so much today, "General, we don't have much time." You don't have to talk so much nonsense with her, just ask directly, and don't dare to scream if you think about her. ”
The man holding the palace maid was Daniel Zhang, and the people behind him were all Liaodong army brothers who stayed with him among the Turks. This successive attack on Yanmen was not possible, and the Turkic army suffered heavy losses, and many Turkic leaders already wanted to return north, and even Shibi Khan also moved this idea.
Daniel Zhang thought that the task given to him by Chen Kefu had not yet been completed, and after discussing with his subordinates for a long time, he gave Shi Bi this plan for tonight. Originally, his purpose was to give Shibi some more hope, so that he could continue to consume a little strength with the Sui army. But he didn't expect that later on the battlefield, Ben had the idea of giving it a try, but he really let him approach the city gate with a hundred people.
After unexpectedly grabbing the city gate, Daniel Zhang and the others did not dare to stay there. Taking advantage of the chaos, he brought a dozen brothers into the city. Anyway, he felt that although he had inadvertently seized the city gate, the Turkic army and the city gate were actually separated by 20,000 Sui cavalry. At that time, this gate will become a huge meat grinder, so it is better to think of something else.
After hiding left and right in the city for a long time without being discovered, Daniel Zhang's heart suddenly had a bold idea. Now that the people and horses in the city have all gone to the city wall, why don't you try to capture Yang Guang alive.
Daniel Zhang, who crawled out of the pile of dead people in the Liaodong battlefield, did not dare to do anything, he thought of it, and coupled with some information sent to him by the secret service department in his hands, he still felt that there was still some hope for success in his heart.
Gently letting go of her hand, the palace maid flashed her bright eyes at Daniel Zhang, and sure enough, she didn't scream, but said a little strangely, "You are not Turks, who are you?" ”
Daniel Zhang faced this young palace maid, but for some reason answered her question honestly, "I am a subordinate of Liaodong Chen Marshal, tell me where the emperor is." ”
When the palace maid heard that it was the men and horses of the Liaodong Army, her face was shocked, and she was about to ask questions, but another brother of the Liaodong Army on the side glared at her fiercely, "If the lord asks you, answer honestly, don't want to play any tricks, be careful that I scratch your beautiful face." ”
The man's threat really worked, the palace maid's face turned pale, and she didn't dare to ask anything anymore, and said honestly, "Your Majesty is in the city, not here." ”
Daniel Zhang looked around at the temple and found that there was really no sound in the temple at this time, and there was not even a patrol guard for a long time. finally believed her words, and his brows furrowed, a little annoyed.
When the big guy heard that Yang Guang was not here, he was also quite disappointed. One of the brothers said, "Why do you carry it so much, you finally came here, this Yang Guang is not here." Big brother, kill this woman, let's withdraw. ”
When the palace maid heard that she was going to kill her, she was frightened and panicked, "Don't kill me, I am the emperor's personal palace maid." Her life was on the verge of death, and she called out her identity in her heart. At this time, she also forgot that if these were the real Sui Jun in front of them, maybe some people might be jealous of her identity as the queen's personal palace maid, but these are traitors who came to hijack the emperor, how could they care about a queen's personal palace maid?
Seeing that everyone didn't care about her words, the little palace maid was anxious, thinking that those people didn't believe her words, she hurriedly said, "I am really the personal palace maid of the queen mother, just now the queen mother ordered me to pick up His Royal Highness the prince and Prince Yuwen to go to her." ”
Daniel Zhang, who was thinking that this palace maid was a little funny, suddenly heard the palace maid talking about the prince, and his eyes turned, "The empress really asked you to pick up the prince?" And which one is that Yuwen Gongzi? Is it Yu culture and Yu Wenshi and? Daniel Zhang knew that Yu Wenhua and the brothers were in Yanmen City at this time, and Yu Wenhua was still Yang Guang's general Zuo Yiwei. So this kid is here, and they should consider killing him. Last time there was a big trouble in Kyoto, Daniel Zhang was also one of them, and that time they attacked the Xu Guogong Mansion at night, but they left out the two brothers alone.
The palace maid nodded hurriedly and said, "What I said is all true, I really went to pick up His Royal Highness the Prince, and Prince Yuwen is the son of Princess Nanyang, Yuwen Zen Master." ”
Daniel Zhang turned his head to face his subordinates, and everyone looked at each other. No need to speak, everyone has already understood what the boss Daniel Zhang is thinking at this time.
One brother waved his sword, "You can't catch the old one, and it's the same if you catch the little one." Boss, the thief doesn't go empty, we finally ran here, how can we go back empty-handed. Let's just arrest this prince, maybe the handsome will be useful by then. ”
This person is also a veteran of the Liaodong Army, originally just a thief, but later became a civilian man delivering grain when he conquered Liao. Later, when he joined the Liaodong Army, he could be regarded as an abandonment of thieves, but when he usually spoke, a few black words still popped up from time to time.
Daniel Zhang was said by him, and it makes sense to think about it. The crown prince is not a simple character, this is the monarchs of the Great Sui. If you catch him and go back to Liaodong, if nothing else, at least you can exchange him for Princess Izumo who has always been obsessed with Dashuai.
Nodding, Daniel Zhang gritted his teeth and waved the horizontal knife in his hand vigorously, "Okay, I made this ticket!" (To be continued.)
