The dizzy soldiers forgot their duties and, at the instigation of the "enthusiastic" people, unconsciously stood up and followed the procession further and further. The plainclothes samurai of the major families carried sharp weapons and mingled in the crowd to watch them.

After the Qing clan left, the families of Luan, Gao, Chen, and Bao rushed one after another, and people picked up the abandoned armor and weapons and armed. Then. The soldiers on the watchful tower in the palace sent a signal to the soldiers guarding the gate to open the palace gate and let the armed men inside.

In the Taimiao, the tasting ceremony is being carried out in an orderly manner. Playing the role of the ancestor to accept the sacrifice was the retainer of Qingfeng, Ma Ying, who wore the clothes of the monarch and sat in the center of the east side of the main hall in a disguised manner. Qi Jinggong led the ministers to kneel in front of him and chattered, talking nonsense made up in advance. Qingshe suddenly felt that there was so much nonsense today, and why did it take so long?

Ziwei knelt at the back, near the door. He glanced ahead and saw that everyone was concentrating on the ceremony, so he quietly got up and slipped out of the temple gate, leading the armed men who had just entered the palace to the temple gate.

Ziwei pulled out his sword and tapped it lightly on the door three times with the hilt of his sword, which was the signal to move. Lu Puqi suddenly stabbed Qingshe in the back without warning, and Qingshe jumped up with a roar; When Qingshe looked back, Wang He waved in front of him to remove his left shoulder.

The mortally wounded Qing was furious, and he picked up a copper kettle and smashed Wang He's brain to the point that Lu continued to attack him. Ziya drew her sword and rushed up to stab Qingshe in the chest, and then Qingshe flew up and kicked out, hitting her head on the pillar and losing consciousness, life and death unknown.

The unwitting ministers fled in a hurry, and Qi Jinggong collapsed on the ground in fright—because he didn't know anything beforehand. Bao Guo picked him up and said, "Don't be afraid, this is the minister crusading against the Qing clan." Chen Xuwu also squeezed to Qi Jinggong's side, and the two of them carried him out of the side door and sent him back to bed.

Ziwei led his troops into the main hall, and they slaughtered many of the Qing clan's henchmen in front of the god lord of the ancestors. However, Keisha's madness before his death made them afraid to approach. Qing She had already killed several people at this time, and he was surrounded by armor soldiers with sharp weapons, sometimes rushing towards this person, sometimes rushing towards that person. When he was sure that he had no hope of killing another man, he held a pillar in one arm, yelled and shook it with all his last strength, as if he were about to knock it down.

His strength was so amazing that even the tiles on the roof of the temple were "fluttering" and falling dust! Ziwei snatched the spear and stabbed him in the throat, and Keisha stared unwillingly, and collapsed against the pillar. The palpitating people just gathered around him, staring at him nervously; It wasn't until Ziwei cut off his head that people breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the streets and alleys of Linzi are still immersed in a joyful and cheerful atmosphere. Suddenly, a faint bell was heard from the direction of Miyagi, which was the signal for an attack. The plainclothes samurai who were mixed in the crowd suddenly drew their sharp blades and attacked the retainers of the Qing clan.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the assassins acted in unison, and the number of people killed was large, as a result, the crowd instantly erupted in great fear. The market was in chaos, ordinary people had no idea what was happening, they thought they had been attacked by terrorists, and they fled in all directions in panic, trampling to death and injuring countless people. In fact, some of the well-trained soldiers did not die by the enemy's sword, but by the trampling of men.

At the same time, a large number of heavily armed armor soldiers drove out from the homes of the major clans and went straight to the homes of the Qing clan and his henchmen. This situation exacerbated the panic of the population: when people saw the horror in front of them, they immediately thought that the whole country was going to be destroyed!

The ministers eliminated the Qing forces entrenched in the city in the shortest possible time, and then turned to preparing to defend against Qingfeng's attack: because Qingfeng still had a sizable army in his hands.

Qingfeng galloped in the hunting ground for a few days, completed the pastime plan and prepared to return to Linzi. At this time, the henchmen who had escaped from the capital reported the murder to him.

Qingfeng was so angry that he scolded Erhui for being cowardly, Lu Puqi and Wang He for being shameless, Yan Ying for being untrustworthy, and Beiguo Zuo for hypocrisy. He immediately gave the order: "Full speed ahead!" ”

When the team arrived at the shore of Weishui, people found that the pontoon bridge had been demolished by Chen Wuyu. Qingfeng ordered the search for ships. The aborigines of the river complained that a few days ago a white-faced gentleman collected all their boats, dragged them to the other side and burned them.

Qingfeng had to collect ships from farther away, so the team was delayed on the road for several more days. Erhui worked day and night to prepare for the upcoming attack. The Qingfeng army soon arrived outside the city of Linzi, and the Qi people had closed the city gate and climbed the city wall. The rebels rested for a moment, and then immediately attacked Simon.

The commander who presided over the defense of the city wall was Ziya, and his means of defense were perfect; The rebels attacked for a whole day, but they lost their troops and made no progress.

That night, Qingfeng stopped the siege. The rebel generals gathered together with sad faces to study countermeasures. Keiji proposed a sneak attack on the North Gate; Qingfeng said, it seems that this is the only way.

At nightfall, Keiji gathered most of the sergeants and quietly left the camp with a message, a bell for the horses, a flag for the drums, and no fires. The camp that was about to be empty was still brightly lit and crowded, and there was nothing unusual to see from the city.

Keiji led his army back to the vicinity of the north gate of Linzi, which was barely defended. The rebels attacked suddenly, and in a short time they broke open the gates and rushed in.

Keiji left some soldiers to guard the city gates, and then led the main force straight to the palace to kill. The rebels marched very smoothly and did not meet decent resistance on the way. However, when they reached the outskirts of the palace, they found that the palace walls had been strengthened and heightened, and dozens of temporary towers had been built along the palace walls.

Keiji knew very well that success or failure depended on the next few hours. He made a brief pre-battle mobilization and then personally led the rebels in an onslaught.

Ziwei was tasked with defending the palace, and he stood on the highest tower and methodically commanded the battle, with the defenders condescending to fire arrows at the rebels; Soon Ziya led the city defense troops to rush to reinforcements, and then a white-knuckle battle broke out.

The rebel offensive did not yield the slightest success, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable for the rebels: the inhabitants of the city began to restless; Many people had gathered, armed with torches and weapons, and had begun to shout at the rebels and throw stones at them.

Keiji saw that the attack was hopeless and had to retreat along the same path. The actions of the rebels were naturally perceived as a flight by the countrymen, with the result that armed civilians poured out from all directions and bluffed at the escapees. Tiles and torches were thrown at them on the houses and on the walls. After suffering some losses, the rebels finally occupied a block around the North Gate.
