Daming heir

Chapter 128 Daming Xuanwu Gate

On the north side of the palace, on the wall of Xuanwu Gate, a head sticks out to look down the wall.

Sun Cheng's face sank, and he took out an imperial decree from his bosom: "Daming Huaiyou County King, Huangsun Yunxi, lead the decree to return to Beijing and open the city gate!"

The head on the wall shrank back.

There was a moment of silence on the Xuanwu Gate.

Then the iron helmet must have drilled out, revealing the cheek of a young general.

Zhou Ji stood on the head of the Xuanwu Gate, the corners of his mouth were slightly the same.

Waiting for you, Zhu Yunxi, to return to Beijing!

He raised his hand in front of his eyebrows, as if confirming who was coming from the city.

It was only a few moments later that the message came: "The general has met the county king. Behind the Xuanwu Gate is the forbidden area of ​​the imperial palace. The county king is ordered to return to the capital. The general dare not stop him, but please dismount and enter the palace."

Unless otherwise ordered, anyone in the palace can only walk on two feet.

Zhu Yunxi's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he looked at the imperial palace that was close at hand behind the Xuanwu Gate.

He shouted coldly: "Get off the horse!"

There was silence in front of the city gate, only the hundred or so people who accompanied them got off their horses and landed neatly.

On the city wall, Zhou Ji observed for a while, and confirmed that among the hundreds of people around Zhu Yunxi, only the twenty or so were wearing weapons, and finally he was relieved.

He shouted to the city: "Young King, wait a moment."

"Open the city gate!"

Along the city wall, Zhou Ji's voice came.

The Xuanwu Gate, which had been closed all the time, slowly opened with a loud noise.

Sun Cheng stood in front of Zhu Yunxi with a weapon in his hand, bowed his head and said in a low voice, "Third Lord..."

Zhu Yunxi looked at the Xuanwu Gate that had been opened, and behind it was the palace that seemed to be forever quiet.

He waved his hand: "Go back to the palace!"

More than a hundred people behind him moved in response.

……

"I have said everything that should have been said, and you should know the benefits of it!"

On the wall of Xuanwu Gate, Zhou Ji's eyes were murderous, scanning the soldiers around him and his subordinates.

"Now that the situation of Your Majesty and the crown prince is unclear, the country cannot be left alone for a day. The king of Huaiyou County already has the support of the generals, and it is precisely because of this that we will not have a bright future!"

"Only the king of Guangling County has no generals to help in the court. As long as today's work is done, it will be the day when we will become prosperous!"

"I can't tell. Today, while we are waiting, there will be a few more Kaiping Kings and Zhongshan Kings appearing!"

"Everyone, please rest assured, my Zhou family is now protecting your family members, and will never cause any trouble to them!"

In the past few days, Zhou Ji, who took the initiative to invite Ying, was on duty at the Xuanwu Gate, and took the opportunity to order the Zhou family members to control his family members, swept his gaze across the faces of more than a hundred people in front of him.

He has only so many subordinates in the imperial guards.

But throughout the ages, those who achieve great things have never been famous for their large number of people.

In the past, Tang Taizong Li Shimin Xuanwu and his coup d'état had only a few hundred people around them, but in the end they created the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Now he is guarding, and he has been prepared for a long time.

Zhu Yunxi was advancing without preparation, and although the number of people was different, there were only 20 or so people on the other side who could fight.

His impassioned words made the officers and soldiers who were still hesitant suddenly feel boundless pride and anticipation.

That is the pursuit of meritorious glory.

"General, the Duke of Huaiyou has entered the palace!"

At this time, observing the soldiers outside the Xuanwu Gate on one side, he turned his head and shouted to Zhou Ji in a low voice.

Zhou Ji frowned, and pulled out the saber at his waist in a hurry: "Go down to the city, ambush on both sides of the city gate!"

For a moment, the soldiers on the city wall pressed their footsteps, quickly descended the city wall, and hid behind the Xuanwu Gate.

Zhou Ji, with a few personal soldiers, stood upright behind the Xuanwu Gate, watching Zhu Yunxi and others who had entered the city gate with calm eyes but excited hearts.

"Third Master, something is wrong!"

Sun Cheng, who had been protecting Zhu Yunxi all the time, suddenly lowered his head and whispered a reminder.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes suddenly sank, and he glanced outside the city gate.

The Xuanwu Gate is oriented north-south.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the sunlight shining from the west was parallel to the Xuanwu Gate.

This also led to the shadows of objects on the north and south sides of Xuanwumen being projected from west to east.

And at the moment when Sun Cheng reminded him, Zhu Yunxi clearly saw that outside the Xuanwu Gate, a round shadow in the west corner moved brightly, and then disappeared towards the west.

He then looked up at the guard general of the Imperial Guard who greeted him outside the city gate.

It is Zhou Ji, the son of Jiang Xiahou!

In an instant, Zhu Yunxi finally came to his senses.

"You arrange, don't be noticed by the other party..."

Zhu Yunxi made a sound without moving his lips and teeth.

Sun Chengdang, who was beside him, put his hands behind his back and shook them silently a few times.

Everything happened in silence.

Unobtrusively, the hundred servants of the Tang family who followed Zhu Yunxi had already tucked their hands into their loose sleeves.

Everyone is silently changing their positions.

The setting sun outside the Xuanwu Gate was getting closer and closer to everyone.

Zhou Ji, who was standing outside the city gate, had a wider smile on his face.

"Close the gate!"

Suddenly, a loud cry came from nowhere.

The Xuanwu Gate, controlled by the mechanism chain on the city wall, made a loud noise and closed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, in Zhou Ji's line of sight, there was no reaction of Zhu Yunxie and others turning around and wanting to flee through the door in a hurry.

At that time, as long as he kills in the back and blocks Zhu Yunxi in the city gate, there is only one-sided massacre left.

However, in his pupils.

With the shout on the city wall.

That damned Duke Huaiyou raised his arms and shouted.

"There are changes in the sky!"

"Rebellious mutiny!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Help me!"

With a roar, Zhu Yunxi had already pulled out the Yanling Saber from his waist, and his blood and energy scattered all over his body, like a mighty general before the battle.

Around him, Sun Cheng and the others drew their swords and swords one after another. Several people formed a small formation, and finally more formations formed a large army formation.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

In the Ming Dynasty, inside the Xuanwu Gate of Yingtian, there were killing sounds everywhere.

Everything happens between messages.

Zhou Ji, who was already a winner, hadn't realized how he was exposed.

Then I saw those who were just ordinary servants showing short knives from their sleeves.

Before he could react, he made a countermeasure.

Zhu Yunxi had already led people out of the Xuanwu Gate.

For a moment, the swords collided behind the Xuanwu Gate, and the sky-shattering resounded.

Unable to prevent mistakes, Zhou Ji's soldiers and horses were completely disorganized for a while.

But those servants of the Tang family who followed Zhu Yunxi back to Beijing from Fengyang were all old soldiers in the army.

At this time, there was a call for rescue, followed by the order of the Patriarch, and none of the subordinates showed mercy.

The knife is ruthless, and the move is fatal.

Looking at the Xuanwu Gate in chaos, Zhou Ji didn't know how to deal with it.

But Zhu Yunxi aimed his eyes at him.

"kill!"

With a loud cry, Zhu Yunxi led several Habayashi guards to kill Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji saw that the pampered Zhu Yunxi, who lived in the palace all day long, showed such a ferocious momentum. If he didn't know that if he didn't succeed today, he would be benevolent, he would have turned around and fled.

"what!"

Zhou Ji roared angrily, and also held up the Yanling sword in his hand, leading his own soldiers, and killed Zhu Yunxi without any scruples.
