Burial Ming

Chapter 36 Wan'an Palace

At this time, Zhu Cai, the king of Wan'an, who was hiding in the royal palace, was already scared to death. He wanted to abandon the royal palace and escape from the county, but he could not give up this family business and his full of money, as well as those wives and concubines, beautiful maids, that is, after a moment of hesitation, news came from outside the house that Xing Tianjun had been controlled. There are various city gates in Yongning County. Now they have no way to run even if they want to run.

After hearing the news, the king of Wan'an was completely scared. He could no longer take care of his money. He ran to the yard in a panic, gathered the remaining guards in the house, and shouted to these guards, "Listen, I usually wait for you. Now that the thief enters the city, I can only point out Look at you, as long as you block the thief for me and don't let them enter the house, each of you will reward you with a hundred taels of silver, but whoever kills a thief will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver!"

Such a heavy reward is not low, but these guards were all depressed and did not cheer because of Zhu Cai's reward. Many of them have seen the power of the Xing Tianjun on the wall. Their terrible shooting of guns is not something that flesh and blood can resist at all, and These bandits are still extremely fierce. When they attack the city, they are not afraid of death, as if their lives are not their own. At this time, the guards of the royal palace have long been scared that their hands and feet are cold. Although Zhu Cai's reward is really attractive, it is easy to get the money, but it must be done with life!

Looking at the dead guards in the courtyard, Zhu Cai was angry and anxious at this time. He couldn't help scolding, "You are all dogs raised by me. Under the maintenance of the king, you are all doting in Yongning County. Now it's good. It's a big disaster, but you bastards have all become soft persimmons!"

At this time, a bodyguard leader couldn't help saying to Zhu Cai, "Your Majesty, it's not that the humble people refuse to use their lives, but that the thieves are really fierce, and their troops are far more than several times that of us. This battle is really unbearable! Even if the subordinates are fighting to death, they may not be the one who can stay in the royal palace!"

Zhu Caiqi's lips trembled and pointed to the bodyguard's head and scolded, "If you can't keep it, you have to guard it. As the saying goes, raise soldiers for a thousand days. For a while, you are all soldiers raised by me. Now even if you die, you will block these thieves outside for me!"

After the bodyguard smiled bitterly, he turned his head and looked at the bodyguards behind him who were so scared that they shrank their heads, so he waved his hand and said, "Do you hear me? We have enjoyed many years of happiness with the prince. Now that the great disaster has come, it is time for you to be loyal to the prince! As for the reward for silver, I don't care about it. Since the prince has rewarded it, you can all take it! Let's copy the guys and go to the wall to guard! Just hold on as long as you can!"

These bodyguards have known that this can only be done until now. Anyway, although Zhu Cai is stingy, it is not bad for them, the palace bodyguards. This time, the thief's broke through the city, which is also their bad fate, and the personnel that should be done still have to be done, so these bodyguards coaxed to get the silver. Each of them grabbed their weapons and began to climb the courtyard wall of the royal palace under the command of the bodyguard leaders, making a posture of resistance.

And the bodyguard turned his head and said to Zhu Cai, "Your Majesty, to tell you, I'm afraid this palace can't be guarded!" Now that it's up to now, the prince had better make other plans early! While the city is not completely controlled by the thieves at this time, the prince should change his clothes and leave the palace quickly, find a safe place to hide, and find an opportunity to sneak out of the city!

The humble position is not talented. At least I have been following the prince for more than ten years. The prince treats me well. The humble position is willing to protect the prince desperately to escape to Luoyang City and go to His Royal Highness the King of Fu! Even if it doesn't work, the humble position will definitely be loyal in front of the prince!"

Listening to the shouts and killing outside gradually getting closer and closer to the royal palace. At this time, Zhu Cai really couldn't care about any family money. After sighing with a gloomy look, he nodded and said to the bodyguard of the royal palace, "Now, it can only be like this! But there are still princesses in the house, so what should they do?

The bodyguard sighed and said, "Since it's time, I can't care so much. If there are many people, the prince will definitely leave. I can only let the princess and others ask for more blessings!" Lord, you'd better change your clothes quickly! If it's too late, it's really too late! And you can't let too many people know about this, otherwise the guards will not fight against the thief army!"

After listening to Zhu Cai, he could only accept his fate with tears in his eyes. He ordered the wives and concubines in the house to return to their own rooms. Once the thieves invaded the house, they would end their own! In any case, you can't be humiliated in the hands of the thief!

Although his wives and concubines were scared to death, there was nothing they could do about it now, so they had to cry back to their respective rooms to make final preparations. For a moment, there was a lot of crying in the royal palace, and it was even more chaotic.

After seeing these wives and concubines disperse, Zhu Cai did not dare to delay. He asked his men to select a few loyal bodyguards and find his two sons. Each of them changed into coarse cloth clothes. The bodyguards also wrapped their swords in cloth and hid them. The bodyguard sent them to the side door and retreated. After the bodyguard here, he opened the side door and stretched out his head to look out, and then the group of people dodged and quickly ran out of the royal palace...

Not long after, the sound of gunfire and shouting outside the royal palace was heard, and the screams and curses when people were on the verge of death resounded through half of Yongning County.

This time he attacked the royal palace in the city, Xiao Tianjian personally came to supervise the battle, and all the artillery teams with the army were transferred into the city and placed around the royal palace. Originally, Xiao Tianjian wanted to persuade the guards in the royal palace to surrender, but it was a rain of arrows shot from the royal palace that were sent to persuade him to surrender.

The messenger who persuaded him to surrender was hit by several arrows on the spot and was robbed. At this point, Xiao Tianjian gave up the idea of persuading him to surrender and immediately ordered a strong attack on the royal palace.

More than a dozen three-pound cannons immediately rumbled, and the cannonballs fell on the courtyard wall of the royal palace like a wind. Then hundreds of firecrackers began to fire on the courtyard wall in turn. Immediately, the guards standing on the courtyard wall fell down like harvested rice.

Dozens of strong men carried a thick beam from nowhere and rushed to the gate of the royal palace under the command of Luo Li. The logs hit the gate of the royal palace heavily, making a huge roar...

Before it was completely dark, the gate of the royal palace was completely knocked open by the outside by the Xing Tianjun, and a large number of soldiers and generals of the Xing Tianjun flooded into the royal palace. At this time, the guards in the royal palace finally gave up resistance, put down their weapons one after another and knelt on the ground. Surrendered to the Xing Tianjun.

After Xiao Tianjian walked into the palace under the escort of the generals, he looked around and couldn't help marveling at the luxury of the Wan'an Palace. Since he came to this world, he didn't really enter the city several times. The first time he entered the city may have been the time he took the Yangcheng County, but after taking the county, he ordered to let it go that night. The fire destroyed Yangcheng County, and this time he entered Yongning County, it was only the second time he entered a county in this era. However, even such a well-informed person, after looking at the royal palace of carved beams and painted buildings, he could not help but be shocked by the luxury here.

Since he led his troops into Henan this time, the scene he saw along the way was basically desolate. After several years of famine and continuous expeditions by the devaded troops, Henan has already withered to the extreme. The hunger seen along the way can be said to be everywhere. Even if it has entered winter, these hunger The stench still exudes a stench, and the smell of corpses has almost become the most smell they smelled along the way. However, in this royal palace, it seems to be like two worlds. If it weren't for the blood stains under the wall of the royal palace telling him that a fierce battle had just happened here, he would have almost felt like another world.

Looking at the incense burners still floating out of fragrance in the main hall of the royal palace, and the messy pastry and fruit plates on the table, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help sighing: "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road!" No wonder the Ming Dynasty is about to die. Looking at the days of these descendants of the Zhu family, you will know why!"

The iron head reached out and picked up a white jade paperweight on the table and played with it. After playing with it, he returned to the table and said to Xiao Tianjian with a smile, "General, I'm afraid he didn't expect that he would have today when the King Wan'an was killed a few days ago! These fish and people's things really deserve to die. If I catch him in a while, I will kill him with my own hands!"

At this time, Luo Li walked into the main hall of the royal palace and said to Xiao Tianjian, "General, Zhu Cai, the king of Wan'an, actually greased the soles of his feet in advance and ran away with them! Unexpectedly, he couldn't even take care of his wives and concubines. At this time, many of his wives and concubines were hanging, and there were only a few who were reluctant to die. They had been caught and locked up by us!"

"Oh? Zhu Cai ran away? So did you ask clearly when did he run? Xiao Tianjian put down the sword in his hand and asked Luo Li.

"I asked. Just now, two bodyguards confessed, saying that they fled the palace not long before we came, and they should not be able to escape from the city! The inferior position has ordered to search for this guy all over the city, and he can't run away from this son of a bitch!" Luo Li gasped and found a chair and sat down. After a fierce battle for a day, Luo Li had been exhausted for a long time.

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "This matter should be done by the guards. In addition, the order is given to Luo Yingjie, so that he can immediately lead people to take over the civil affairs in the city and count the seized goods. At the same time, Zhang Bang Anmin. At the same time, he offers a reward of 50 taels of silver to catch Zhu Cai. After cleaning up the battlefield, the second battalions and three battalions will leave a sentry in the city to assist the guard control of the city. In the middle situation, the rest of the soldiers will immediately collect the soldiers and go out of the city to rest outside the city without disturbing the people!"

After listening to it, Luo Li immediately stood up to take the order, but after taking the order, he said to Xiao Tianjian with a shy face, "General, the brothers fought hard to fight down Yongning County. Why did you let the brothers go out to rest so soon! Why do you let the brothers have fun in the city for two days?

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian stared and immediately scolded Luo Li, "What do you think our Xing Tianjun is?" Do you think we should be like those exiles or officers? We are the Xing Tianjun, not ordinary bandits. We go down to the city just for enjoyment!

Not to mention you, even if it is me, I will go out of the city and station outside the city like you. If everyone thinks about you, then won't we be no different from other rebels?

Let me tell you, we can't rest now. The fight of Yongning County is not over. The government of Henan will not sit back and watch us take down Yongning County. It will immediately send troops to suppress us. In addition, there are a bucket of local thieves around, such as a bucket of valley and tile jars. They will not sit back and watch us seize this place, and I don't plan to follow. They are polite. Now Yaoben has led his troops to the Duyang River in the north of the city and blocked Yidou Valley near Yongning County. It is estimated that it is likely that there has been a fight. We still have a big battle to fight next! Now is far from the time to relax!

After we overturn the emperor, we will beat Jiannu back to their hometown. At that time, it will be time for us to rest. Do you understand?

(Hold again, red ticket, I want red ticket!)
