The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 720 Why are you not in a hurry?

Chapter 720 Why are you not in a hurry?

If it is said that Xiahou Zan played a strategy of keeping his face and inviting the king into the urn, then Xiahou Yu's move was to use the trick.

Xia Houyu didn't force the palace at night at all, but waited until the sky was bright and all the courtiers entered the palace for early court, and then he led his troops to the palace.

The difficulty of the White House is much greater than at night. Everyone is very sleepy at night, and their reactions are naturally insensitive.

But the White Palace has one more advantage than that at night, that is, everyone is enclosed in the palace gate, even princes, generals, or those who have soldiers at home, have no time to gather their own people to defend.

In the beginning, Xia Houyu and the military division couldn't agree on one point.

Now there is no need to disagree, just follow what the military adviser said.

The people sent by Xia Houyu have been watching near the palace gate, so Xia Houyu knows exactly where Yin Chunian dispatched troops and where the peripheral troops are arranged.

Before dawn, the procession of going to court had arrived at the gate of the palace one after another. As usual, everyone got off their sedan chairs and walked into the palace in twos and threes. They greeted each other as they walked, and even asked each other what they had for breakfast...

After a while, civil servants and military generals were lined up in the Golden Palace, and the princes stood at the front of the line, and everyone waited quietly for the arrival of the emperor.

Xia Houxian and Xia Houyu have been having a very unpleasant fight recently, and everyone's eyes glance at Xia Houxian from time to time, why don't they glance at Xia Houyu?
Because...they didn't come today.

For what reason, no one knows.

Everything is the same as usual, Shao Qing, the eunuch Chen Jinzhong sang loudly, "The emperor is here!"

All the courtiers lifted their robes to pay respects, and Xia Houzan turned around the screen and sat down.

Once I sat down, I realized something was wrong!
He didn't even open his mouth to ask the minister to get up, but Xia Houzan looked at the people kneeling below in amazement, especially those who belonged to the prince, how could there be no Xia Houyu?

"Where's Xia Houyu?" Xia Houzan felt something was wrong, "Who saw Xia Houyu!"

The tone was rather hasty, making everyone confused.

I didn't see Xia Houyu's figure when I came in the morning, so I naturally said I didn't see him now.

Yin Chunian in the main hall immediately became aware that something was wrong, and led the team to run out of the hall. The hem of the armor collided and made a 'squeaky' sound, and everyone was a little uneasy.

What's going on here?
Xia Houzan sat on the dragon chair and pondered for a while without making a sound, while those people on the ground were still kneeling.

Don't talk if you don't talk, let's get up anyway?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and wink at each other, what is it?

Xia Houxian and the other princes couldn't figure it out, so why did they ask Xia Houyu politely, is it important whether he comes or not?

Not long after, Yin Chunian, who had just led the team out, walked back quickly, and Xia Houzan immediately got up, regardless of his status, and went down the steps directly.

Yin Chunian whispered a few words next to Xia Houzan, with a solemn expression on his face. When he led his troops out, the guards at the gate had already closed the palace gate. They said that Xia Houyu led a heavy army and had already fought against the imperial forest army outside.

Xia Houzan did not expect Xia Houyu to act so simply. Now it seems that this chaos in the palace is inevitable.

He immediately summoned the generals to enter the imperial study, and all the others waited in the golden hall. Without Xia Houzan's order, no one was allowed to leave the palace.

Of course, you can't get out if you want to.

Rong Jing and Xia Houqi hid quietly behind, knowing what was going on without discussing it.

Xia Houqi was a little bit puzzled, he just told his father yesterday, why Xia Houyu turned against him today?

The action is too fast!
What exactly did they go through? !

However, now is no longer the time to think about these issues, Xia Houqi was a little anxious, "What should I do? Xia Houyu is really crazy, calling early in the morning, is he sure that he can succeed or something? Now that we are trapped in the palace, we can't There is no way to send a letter to my uncle, there is only the Imperial Forest Army in this palace, hey, I said why are you not in a hurry at all?"

Xia Houxiang is currently in Liangzhou, and they use carrier pigeons to communicate with them. Now that they are trapped, it is impossible to get out of the palace. How can they go home to get pigeons?
Xia Houqi stomped his feet anxiously, but Rong Jing hugged his shoulders and said, "Speak, I'll watch quietly", everyone is knocking on the door now.

"What's the rush?" Rong Jing looked at him intently, "I went back yesterday, and I sent a letter to Prince Zhan."

"..." Xia Houqi looked at Rong Jing speechlessly, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"What, you send it for me?" Rong Jing was still hugging his shoulders. After leaving the palace yesterday, he knew that Xiahou Zan had to send someone to investigate. It wasn't that he couldn't trust the Imperial Forest Army. It would be a good thing if he could beat it. What if he couldn't? ?

In fact, in Rong Jing's mind, it's not a big deal if he can't beat him. What Xia Houyu wants is the throne, Xia Houzan must be the one who is in trouble. If he succeeds in forcing the palace, he will just fight Xia Houyu after the King of War returns to Beijing.

But there is a section, if Xia Houyu is the new emperor, he will definitely eliminate dissidents. It will be a big deal to kill the ministers of the court and the central government. Ministers of civil and military affairs are the cornerstone of the stability of the court. If these people are damaged, Tian Qi will definitely have to delay It takes a year and a half to regain stability.

Therefore, after Rong Jing went back, he hurriedly sent out the news, and wrote "Ning Wang will oppose" instead of "Ning Wang wants to oppose". It would take three to five days to travel from Beidi to the capital.

Rong Jing reckoned that if he told Xiahou Zan about Xiahou Yu's troops, within three to five days, either Xiahou Zan would do it or Xiahou Yu would do it.

In this way, just in time.

However, what he didn't expect was that Xia Houyu would do it so quickly.

Xia Houqi was a little bit stuck, but he was relieved. My uncle will definitely return to Beijing immediately after receiving the letter, so Xia Houyu is nothing to be afraid of.

"Did you write something serious, like the feeling that if my uncle doesn't come back, we'll all die here?" Xia Houqi asked quite seriously.

Rong Jing: "..."

To be honest, he has grown so big, it is difficult for idlers to make him speechless, Xia Houqi is now one of them.

Now that the rescue news has been sent out, they just need to wait quietly in the palace.

Xia Houqi doesn't know about other things. Anyway, the organs at the palace gate are enough for Xia Houyu to drink a pot, and with the guards of the Imperial Forest Army, it shouldn't be a problem to persist for three to five days, right?

The most important thing now is that the people in Beijing should not be abused.

Xia Houqi was more thoughtful, but he underestimated the ingenuity of the common people and Xia Houyu's persistence.

Xia Houyu came rushing to seize the throne, and did not slaughter the city, so the people in the capital are still very safe.

However, the family members of the ministers in the DPRK and China are having a hard time. Their masters and sons are locked up in the palace.

If there is a fight, don't be implicated.

Everyone except Xia Houyu's party is praying that the war king can turn around at this time and save them from danger.

Therefore, Xia Houxiang and his party entered Beijing under the infinite expectations of the big guys.
