Chapter 223: Palace Change


On the night of July 16 in the fourth year of Jingtai, Zhu Qiyu still did not issue the will to establish Zhu Jianjun as the prince, and Shi Heng and others were ready, and gathered together at Xu Youzhen's house outside the inner city, and the participants were Wuqing Hou Shi Heng, Zuo Du Yushi Xu Youzhen, Changping Hou Yang Jun, and Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan two brothers.

Shi Heng, as the chief officer of the 10th Regiment Battalion, was in charge of the key to the inner city palace, and Yang Jun, Zhang Hui, and Zhang Xuan were in charge of three battalions in the 10th Regiment Battalion, and at this time they transferred a small half of them into the inner city.

"We have nearly 10,000 people now, so we should be able to make it, right?"

When Shi Heng watched the nearly 10,000 horses slowly enter the inner city, he actually had a sense of foreboding in his heart.

"What could be the problem?

Zhongguo Gong Ji Ling has been ill in the mansion recently, and he has not left the house for several days, and now we have 10,000 horses under our command, and we can't control the entire inner city?

Xu Youzhen said, and directly took these people to Nangong.

Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan couldn't help but tremble in their hearts when they looked at the night, so they suggested to Shi Heng, "With so many people gathered together, the goal is too big, so it is better for us to lead most of the men and horses to guard the streets of the inner city." ” "Okay, then the two of you will patrol the left and right sides of the inner city respectively, and the Marquis of Changping will go directly to Nangong with me!"

After saying that, Shi Heng rushed to the southwest corner of the palace with Yang Jun, Xu Youzhen and others, while the two brothers Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan led their armies to surround the entire inner city.

At this time, Zhu Qizhen in Nangong was waiting anxiously, he was not sure if things could be successful, he only knew that he had had enough of the current days.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, Zhu Qizhen stood up reflexively, and then ran to the empty courtyard, only to find that the high wall had been knocked down, and Shi Heng and the others rushed in in disgracefully, "Emperor, hurry up and wait for the ministers to enter the palace!"

” It's finally here!

Zhu Qizhen raised his head and sobbed, and tears almost fell, but at this time, he didn't have time to sigh, just left in a hurry with Shi Heng and the others.

"Now that Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan have controlled the entire inner city, as long as the emperor enters the palace with us and goes to Fengtian Hall to wait for the ministers to go to court, then great things can be expected!"

"All of you can report your names to me, and after I ascend the throne, I will not forget what you have done today!"

Zhu Qizhen looked at the people who followed him, and couldn't help but feel excited, "By the way, what about Lu Zhong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard?"

” "It's already dead, and he was killed by his ministers outside Nangong!"

Shi Heng replied solemnly, but when he led people to the outside of the palace, he discovered the urgency of the matter: Cao Jixiang, who had been agreed with him in advance, did not appear!

If he hadn't been in the palace to answer him, how would he have gotten into the palace?

But if you break in and make too much noise, you won't be able to recruit all the troops outside the city!

Who knew that just when Shi Heng and the others were helpless, the gate of the palace slowly opened, so they subconsciously thought that it was Cao Jixiang who was helping inside, so they broke in without thinking.

As everyone knows, when Shi Heng's nearly 1,000 people walked to the vicinity of the Wenhua Palace, the gate of the palace was already tightly closed, and the little man Xu Youzhen also found an abnormality, "No, there is something wrong, where is Cao Jixiang?"

” Before Shi Heng could answer, he suddenly saw a group of torches lit up around him, and then he heard a loud drum sound in the direction of Wenyuan Pavilion, "Shi Heng and Yang Jun have transferred troops to attack without authorization, intending to rebel!"

” "Oops!

Hit the trick!

Yang Jun, who was in charge of the palace, shouted, and then he saw his old acquaintance Ji Ling, his eyes were very cold, "Release the arrow!"

” "Kill Ji Ling, it's done!"

Yang Jun knew that he had been cornered, so he could only give it a go, while Zhu Qizhen, who was surrounded in the middle of the team, felt the pain and fear of four years ago: Is history going to repeat itself?

Shi Heng and Yang Jun have no other way to retreat, they can only hope to kill Ji Ling, and more importantly, the two brothers Zhang Hui and Zhang Jun have led the army to control the inner city, as long as they can capture Ji Ling, they don't have to worry about any changes.

But is it really that simple?

In fact, the two brothers Zhang Hui and Zhang Wei were also facing the same dilemma at this time, because they encountered the pro-army of Zhu Yi, the Duke of Chengguo, and Wei Qi, the general of Datong, in the inner city!

It turned out that Ji Ling knew that he couldn't do this big thing, so he called his brother Zhu Yi to help.

At the same time, Wei Qi was also secretly transferred into the capital by Ji Ling, and turned all his personal soldiers into ordinary people to sneak in at the opportunity, and what they were waiting for was this moment!

Zhang Yi, Zhang Xun and their son were still ambitious at first, but later they found out that Zhu Yi had too many soldiers: Nima Jiling lent his second battalion of Zhong and Yong to Zhu Yi!

As for the Zhejiang soldiers and Guanzhong soldiers under Wei Qi, they were even more regarded as ten, and they did not want to die when they started a battle, and more importantly, they only obeyed Ji Ling's military orders.

Completely defeated, Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan's hearts were dead, and they had no chance to turn over, but at this moment, they found a new force, they were led by the thirteen-year-old British Duke Zhang Mao!

This is Zhang Mao's family army, but he will not let go of this opportunity, because he clearly remembers that his father Zhang Fu died tragically in Tumubao, while Zhang Wei and Zhang Hui, who are uncles, only care about robbing the family interests and ignore themselves!

Of course, at this time, Zhu Yi and Zhang Mao also have a common goal, that is, Zhu Qizhen, the faint monarch, in their opinion, their father's death was caused by this emperor!

Since there is already a big chaos tonight, then take advantage of the situation to kill it cleanly, so after defeating Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan, Zhu Yi and Zhang Mao coincidentally sent a small team to Nangong, where all Zhu Qizhen's family members were ......

Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, had long been aware of the conspiracy of Shi Heng and others, but for the sake of the country and the world, he did not intend to prevent this coup, so in order to prevent accidents, he specially called Wang Wen and other ministers to Wenyuan Pavilion on duty, but he did not expect that Ji Ling, the prince of Zhongguo, was also secretly plotting: the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind!

Yu Qian secretly blamed Ji Ling for his confusion, because he felt that even if he prevented the restoration of Zhu Qizhen, he would not be able to change the result of the succession of Zhu Jianjun, the king of Yi, so what was the difference between it and the restoration of Emperor Taishang?

But all this was just because he didn't know Ji Ling's plan, and before he could figure out the joints, Shi Biao, whose face was covered with blood, rushed into Wenyuan Pavilion like crazy, and slashed at Yu Qian, Wang Wen and other important ministers with a huge axe......
