In the middle of the night, lightning flashed and thundered, and the torrential rain continued.

With the rumbling of thunder, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the streets under the rain curtain. On the streets, countless soldiers wore helmets and armor, and wore boots with iron nails, like the blades of the forest dazzling under the lightning!

Under the cover of heavy rain, this army drove out of the barracks and headed for Yong'an Gate on the east side of Xiyuan!

According to the rules, after dark, unless there is a will, the gate of the Forbidden Garden Palace must not be opened, even if it is a hundred thousand urgent military information, it can only be transmitted through the crack in the door. Even if Zhu Di has been ill for a long time, the eunuchs in the palace have almost changed, and the old rules seem to have disappeared, and now there is only one rule in the palace, and that is Zhao Ying! The palace gate is not something he can touch.

Because the guards guarding the palace gate are all under Zheng He's control!

When that huge army appeared outside the Yong'an Gate in the heavy rain, sure enough, they saw the closed palace gate.

The army had to stop slowly, the soldiers looked at the generals, and the generals looked at King Zhao and Zhao Ying, who were at the forefront.

King Zhao was dressed in a military uniform, without a poncho and hat, and braved the wind and rain like an ordinary soldier, and the cold rain flowed into his body along the gap in the golden armor, but he only felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling!

How many years of depression, how many years of dormancy, how many years of sharpening the sword, finally raised his eyebrows at this moment, and showed his sword to the world! Let everyone know that he is by no means the prince of Anle who eats and waits for death, and he is the true son of destiny who has become a blockbuster if he does not sing!

"Lord Wang." Zhao Ying's old face was still expressionless, as if all his emotions had disappeared with the passage of time. Even in this life-and-death moment, he still has no fluctuations. "The old slave went in and called the door."

"Oh good! There is Lao Gonggong. King Zhao came back to his senses and nodded, but looking at the closed palace gate and the two-zhang high palace wall, King Zhao was confused again, and he didn't know how Zhao Ying entered.

I saw Zhao Ying turn over and dismount, take off his hat, take off the heavy poncho on his body, show off the golden python robe, and then rush forward like an arrow, when he was still eight feet away from the palace wall, his legs flicked, and his body jumped up, and he was a foot high from the ground!

But it's not enough, although the palace wall of the West Garden is far less towering than the Forbidden City, it is still more than two feet high, and it is definitely not a human power to leap!

said that it was too late, and when he saw that Zhao Ying was about to reach the highest place, a piece of flying claw suddenly shot out of his sleeve, and the flying claw shot out of the lightning, and it actually pierced into the thick palace wall. Zhao Ying used the rope of the flying claw to draw a graceful arc in the air, crossed the palace wall at once, and disappeared from the sight of King Zhao and the others in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Wang and the others widened their eyes, letting the rain obscure their vision, it was hard to imagine that this was a human move.

After a while, the palace gate slowly opened, and surrounded by a group of eunuchs, Zhao Ying stood with his hands in hand, waiting for King Zhao's army to enter the palace.

"Grandpa Zhao really did what he said!" King Zhao was overjoyed, and with a wave of his hand, the army roared into the palace.

After the army entered the palace, there was still a dead silence in the palace, as if all the eunuchs and guards were sleeping in the rain.

Zhao Ying came to King Zhao and reported in a deep voice: "The grandson is indeed not in the dormitory, but has returned to Yingtai's residence. ”

"I will divide the army with you, I will take people to the dormitory, and my father-in-law will take people to Yingtai," King Zhao had already made a plan, and ordered in a deep voice: "We will do it at the same time!" After a pause, King Zhao's eyes suddenly showed murderous insight: "This king doesn't want to live, bring up my nephew's head to see Lone!" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Ying responded coldly, and then led Peng Xu's Yulin avant-garde to Yingtai, while King Zhao took Meng Xian's army and rushed to the emperor's bedroom!

Yingtai is located in the middle of the South China Sea, because it is surrounded by water, lined with pavilions and pavilions, like a fairy island in the sea, so it gets this name, and then to the south is the lowland of Tatezhu Luwan, across the water and Baoyue Tower. It is a first-class scenery treasure in the West Garden. Zhu Di gave this place to the residence of the emperor's grandson when he stayed in the palace, and his love for Zhu Zhanji can be seen.

The thunderstorm is the best cover, and when Zhao Ying and his army set foot on the jade bridge leading to Yingtai, the guards protecting the grandson were shocked to find that someone had invaded! Hurriedly shouting for help while drawing his blade to meet the onrushing enemy army!

Zhao Ying clasped his hands in his sleeves and stopped. The elite soldiers who followed him drew their swords one after another, rushed forward, and engaged in a fierce battle with the guards guarding Yingtai!

Zheng He's subordinates were responsible for guarding Yingtai, and Zheng He was worried that there would be a lot of things in the womb, so he was afraid that something would happen to his grandson, so he mobilized a full 500 guards to garrison the island. In addition, there is only one passage from the Jade Bridge to Yingtai, so although he did not expect that King Zhao's side would suddenly attack tonight, it will not be lost immediately for a while!

On the jade bridge, under the torrential rain, the soldiers on both sides waved their blades, their faces were hideous, and they fought to the death! The blade pierced through the armor, tearing limbs, blood gushing out, diluted by the downpour! But soon, more blood sprayed out, and no matter how heavy the rainstorm was, it didn't have time to wash away!

The ground was slippery, and many soldiers fell to the ground, and then they no longer got up, so they rolled on the ground and torew, and from time to time some soldiers screamed and fell into the lake......

On the Yingtai, in the Hanyuan Palace, His Royal Highness Taisun couldn't sleep at night, sometimes tossing and turning on the bed, sometimes barefoot on the ground, walking around in the hall, obviously although he had decided to accept the emperor's will, but His Royal Highness Taisun's heart was still chaotic.

How could he not be distracted? In his heart, inheriting the throne and ascending to the throne is certainly the highest wish above all else, but how should he settle his father in the future? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who has been in office for 20 years? Crowned as the emperor to live for a long time? Or just seal a prince and leave it cold? It seems that no matter what you do, it is against heaven and human feelings, and it is difficult to escape the mouths of the people...... It's so nerve-wracking.

Also, what should Wang Xian do? The condition for him to be the emperor is to execute Wang Xian, but that is his only friend, the benefactor who has saved him countless times, how can he do it?

Just when His Royal Highness Taisun was extremely distressed, the door of the palace was pushed open, and Qin Zhu was covered in rain and rushed in with a panicked face.

"What's the matter? So panicked! Zhu Zhanji was taken aback, and asked with a dark face.

"Your Highness, it's not a good thing! We're under attack! Qin Zhu didn't care about saluting and shouted loudly.

"What?" Zhu Zhanji was stunned all of a sudden, only to feel a chill surging from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he was so shocked that his whole body couldn't move for a while, so he could only ask with difficulty: "Who dares to make trouble in the Forbidden Palace?" How many of them are there?! ”

"I can't figure out the number for a while, but it's far more than Yingtai's guards!" Qin Yu hurriedly put on Zhu Zhanji's protective soft armor, and reported urgently: "It should be Yulinwei's army, and the people from Dongchang are mixed in!" ”

"King Zhao!" Zhu Zhanji was terrified, hatred surged into his heart, and he gritted his teeth and said: "He really dares to rebel!" As he spoke, he pushed Qin Zhu away, paced a few steps irritably, and his heart was already clear - tomorrow morning, as soon as he announced his will, and the news of Zhu Di's wake, it can be said that the overall situation has been decided, if King Zhao doesn't want to make a splash of bamboo basket, he must take risks tonight!

It's just that how did Zhu Gaosui know that the imperial grandfather had woken up? And the content of that will?! Zhu Zhanji couldn't figure it out, could it be that he and Zhao Ying were really omnipresent and omniscient in the palace?

"Your Highness, now that we are isolated from the outside world, the situation is very dangerous!" Seeing Zhu Zhanji pondering there, Qin Zhu couldn't help but remind: "We have to find a way to escape quickly!" ”

"How do you escape?" Zhu Zhanji stopped pacing, arrived at the door of the main hall, and looked at the fierce battle between the soldiers on the stone bridge outside. He could clearly judge that although the two armies were still fighting fiercely at the moment, it was obvious that the Yingtai guards were constantly retreating under the pressure of the enemy, and once the jade bridge was lost, it would be the time for the enemy to pour into the nest and catch turtles in the urn!

"It won't last long...... His Royal Highness Taisun frowned.

"Take the waterway." Qin Zhu said in a deep voice: "In the afternoon, my subordinates ordered someone to prepare a small boat on the south side of Yingtai!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Zhanji was overjoyed when he heard this, so under the protection of Qin Zhu and several cronies, he quietly walked out of the Hanyuan Palace, plunged into the heavy rain, and came to the small wharf on the south side of Yingtai with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Sure enough, there was a small boat with a tent tied to the dock, and Qin Zhu and the others escorted the grandson on the boat, then untied the cable, rowed the boat and quietly left Yingtai, where the killing sound was shocking.

Sitting in the cabin, unable to hear the sound of fighting outside, Zhu Zhanji's nervous mood eased, took off the poncho on his body, and continued to think about the current situation and how to deal with it.

Obviously, if the will of the throne and the news of the emperor's grandfather's awakening were not leaked, King Zhao would never choose to take a risk tonight. Zhu Zhanji really couldn't figure it out, how could such top-secret information leak out in a blink of an eye?! Could it be that Zheng He has betrayed the emperor? But obviously it is impossible, if Zheng He betrayed the emperor, the emperor would have died in vain, how could he survive to this day?

Did the imperial grandfather leak it out on purpose? Apparently it is also impossible. The emperor's grandfather has not much time, and the idea of not wanting to have another incident is very obvious. As soon as the court meeting passes tomorrow, King Zhao can only accept his fate even if he is unwilling. How could the imperial grandfather take the initiative to cause such a palace coup? No matter what the result is, it will be a big scandal for the emperor himself!

Could it be that it was leaked out from your own side? Zhu Zhanji immediately denied this ridiculous idea, and when he came out of the dormitory, he didn't say a word, let alone contact Wang Xian's subordinates, how could he leak the news?

"What the hell!" Zhu Zhanji couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head, so he slammed the deck hard, and his mood was extremely sad. He didn't know that because of the leakage of the news, King Zhao suddenly attacked, and the prince and Zheng He were inevitably caught off guard, whether they could quell this rebellion tonight, I'm afraid it was still five or five!

However, for the unarmed themselves, how to survive this palace coup is the most important question.
