Chapter 717 Calming the Chaos (1)
"We are the ones who are ordered by the holy order to protect the safety of the empress. The sudden change tonight, the empress is worried about the emperor, so I want to go in and have a look." The eunuchs were arguing with Huang Song while pushing the concubine step by step. Drive the crowd this way.

In the front garden of the imperial palace, in the Chonghua Palace where the auxiliary ministers are on duty in turn, tonight are the Grand Master of the Martial Arts Hall, the Prince Shaoshi, the Marquis of An Yi and Minister of Industry and Industry Zhou Taiyu, and the Grand Master of the Wenhua Palace, the Zuo Du Yu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate Yao Yuanzhi, Minister of History and Household Department, was on duty at night together.

Wei Zhang and Zhen Guogong knew that they couldn't enter the inner palace, so they went directly to Chonghua Hall as soon as they came.

Yao Yuanzhi and Zhou Taiyu were very surprised when they saw the two of them, thinking that something important had happened at the border, and that Fanbang had killed and robbed them again.

Naturally, Duke Zhen and Wei Zhang couldn't explain the real purpose of their visit, Wei Zhang even vaguely said that his wife did not come back from the emperor's medical consultation today, and he was afraid that the Eucharist might not be safe, so He Guogong came to have a look.

Zhou Taiyu and Zhen Guogong are sons and daughters, Yao Yuanzhi and Wei Zhang are Weng's son-in-law.Speaking of which, these four are not considered outsiders, so Yao Yuan ordered Si Zhilang, who was on duty, to fetch water to make tea, and just wanted to take this opportunity to talk to the two generals about military pay.

It's just that Wei Zhang didn't have the heart to drink tea at all. According to the information he got, Concubine Xian was sent to the palace guard for trial tonight, and there would definitely be no peace in the harem.

After hearing that Yunshen went to see Yunzhen at such a time, Lord Zhen also felt that something was wrong.King Jin is an idle prince, he has not been involved in political affairs these years, and has no military power in his hands.He only leads his prince's salary to live his peaceful life.

Everyone has been a little paralyzed over the years.But no matter how long it is trapped in the shallows, a dragon is a dragon after all, and will never be willing to be a fish or shrimp.

Both Zhen Guogong and Wei Zhang were absent-minded, and Yao Yuanzhi soon noticed the clue.It's just that he's a smart guy and doesn't ask too many questions.

After the third watch, Wei Zhang suddenly frowned, squeezed the teacup tightly, and turned to look at Duke Zhen.Duke Zhen also frowned with a look of sternness on his face.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Taiyu asked puzzled.

Wei Zhang didn't speak, he clearly heard the commotion from the harem.The voice was too noisy, and it was faintly discernible as the night wind blew.It's just that Yao Yuanzhi and Zhou Taiyu didn't understand martial arts and had excellent hearing, and they were a little hard of hearing as they got older, so they didn't hear.

As the yelling became louder and clearer, Wei Zhang couldn't sit still.One reason is that there is such a big commotion and the emperor does not know what is going on, and the other reason is——Yao Yanyu is still in the palace!If someone really forced the palace to rebel, she would definitely be doomed!
Zhen Guogong raised his hand to hold Wei Zhang who was about to get up and leave, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, you call your people over first. We always have to find out what's going on before we talk about it."

Wei Zhang agreed and turned around to go out, and after a short wait, Si Zhilang hurried in to report: something happened in the inner palace, and there was a lot of noise inside, as if there was an assassin!Everyone is shouting for assassins!

"There are assassins?!" An Yihou was stunned.

Yao Yuanzhi was relatively calm: "Grandpa, we must find a way to save him!"

Lord Zhen waved his hand calmly and said: "Don't panic, I have already sent someone to inform Prince Cheng when we came, I believe that the prince will arrive as soon as he speaks. Wei Zhang is also summoning people to rescue him, including Jinlinwei and Lie With the Eagle Guards around, no assassin of any kind can escape."

"But now the palace is in chaos, and I don't know what's going on with the emperor?!" Hou An Yi finally recovered from that, and asked with a pale face.

Duke Zhen said in a deep voice: "With Huang Song and a group of loyal and brave Weis around the emperor, nothing will happen."

While speaking, Wei Zhang had already come back and cupped his hands to the Duke of Zhen: "Master, the troops have assembled. They are ready to enter the palace to rescue him at any time."

"Have you got in touch with the palace?" Duke Zhen slapped the table and stood up.

"Yes." Wei Zhang replied.

"How are they?"

"The emperor is fine, but there are more than 3000 rebellious eunuchs, maids, and some guards inside. Captain Huang is struggling to resist, and blood has already been seen at the gate of Zichen Hall."

"God bless you! As long as the emperor is safe, we can rest assured." Lord Zhen Guo, who has never believed in gods, couldn't help but bowed his hands to God, then waved his hand, and shouted: "Go! Take your sons and daughters, Follow the old man to meet Jimen."

"Yes." Wei Zhang used to be the most powerful general under the Duke's command. Now that he has been promoted to a general, he still does not forget his true colors.

The entire harem was in chaos, shooting, resistance, madness, hijacking... Every corner was filled with blood.But the torture in Zichen Hall was completely different from the outside, not a drop of blood, not a scream, but it was even more tense and suffocating.

For the emperor's safety, Wynn called several of his confidants into the hall and gave some sharp orders.

Although thousands of servants in the palace mutinied, the people serving in the Zichen Palace still had winks. No matter what thoughts they had before, they knew that the only way to survive was to stay close to the emperor at this moment.So they geared up one by one, vowing to protect the safety of the emperor to the death.

Wynn asked Sanshun to find the two stainless steel chains and locked up the two assassins respectively. Yao Yanyu took out two pills and asked them to take them separately.After a while, the Kungfu man woke up.

Someone else took a wet veil to wipe off the black dust on the faces of the two, revealing two young faces.

Seeing this, Wynn's eyes widened in surprise: "Why are you two! You...you are actually rebels! "

These two people are really not outsiders. One of them is the guard of Tai Chi Hall, and the other is the guard of Huiji Gate. They both belong to the Jinlin Guard establishment, and they are people who surround the emperor all day long.

In fact, Ouchi guarded thousands of people. Although Wynn met many people around the emperor, he didn't necessarily know all of them.But it so happened that Cao Xiang, who was on duty in the Tai Chi Hall among the two, was the younger brother of Cao Gong, the deputy captain of the Zichen Palace. Both brothers were from military households. Gong, was promoted to Deputy Captain because the emperor saved the emperor's life in time when he was riding a horse in Nanyuan last year. The emperor also trusted him very much, and entrusted him with the protection of the Zichen Palace.

This is Deputy Captain Cao who just surrounded the side hall to prevent his subordinates from going in to save people, and then said that he would bring two assassins to torture him.

After Wynn reacted, he lost his voice immediately: "Not good! Cao Gong!"

Sanshun immediately reacted, and hurriedly ran out to call for someone to capture Cao Gong.

Since the two assassins were brought into Zichen Palace, Cao Gong fled.Their brother was threatened to buy one after another, and the younger brother was caught. He naturally knew that he had nothing to end with, and naturally he would not wait to be dealt with.

Yao Yanyu in the hall had no time to take care of other things, so he just ordered the eunuch next to him to take one of the assassins down first, leaving only the one named Cao Jing for interrogation.Naturally, Cao Jing would not cooperate, and cast a contemptuous glance at Yao Yanyu—what are you kidding, asking a woman to interrogate him?Is the old emperor dementia?
