The way of life has always been through the past
Qi Yan heard the sound of the sword being unsheathed, and without hesitation, wiped it on Nangongda's neck before leaning back. With a "ding" sound, it was unknown whose blade hit the hair on top of Qi Yan's head. The hoop, the headband shattered, and Qi Yan's hair also fell apart.
Nangongda clutched his neck and struggled on the ground in pain, and Nangongda's confidant rushed to him and shouted loudly.
At the moment of life and death, Qi Yan didn't even have time to think. She only knew that when Nangongda died, the leaders of the Royal Forest Army would fall into a passive state. If she died like this, if she could pull another member of the Nangong royal family on the back, Huangquan Road would be more lively.
As for being able to dodge this, it all depends on luck, if it is a little slower, maybe the knife will be his own head.
Qi Yan held the dagger and took a few steps back, but it was still very dangerous at the moment. Outsmarted a way.
"Master! Master!!!" Nangongda's confidant crouched on Nangongda's body and cried bitterly, but the poison that sealed his throat was already running down his wound. As the blood flowed through his body, Nangongda's convulsions became more and more intense , it seems to be impossible.
Nangongda's struggle attracted the attention of the Royal Forest Army, and it also gave Qi Yan a few breaths to think about countermeasures.
Qi Yan quickly analyzed the situation in front of him: As soon as Nangongda died, these imperial guards lost their trust and motivation, and there may be two results.
One is: breaking the pot, directly forcing the palace into chaos, and striving to obtain the promise that the superior will not be held accountable.
The second is: abandon the car to protect the coach, sacrifice a small number of people as scapegoats, and save more people.
It seems that I don't have no chance at all, but... There are so many people on the other side, everyone has their own ideas, it is not easy to communicate, but if there is a mistake in one sentence, angering someone, let a cold arrow come out to me Don't even think about living!
Nangongda was dead, and the guards in the front row gradually focused their attention on Qi Yan. They saw that their eyes were not good, and they raised their weapons one after another.
Qi Yan took a deep breath and threw the dagger in her hand: "Everyone, please listen to me."
"Fuck your shit, take your life!"
Qi Yan: "I have a way to make everyone present, including your family, safe!"
There was a commotion in the Imperial Forest Army, but fortunately no one came out to attack Qi Yan, Qi Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Nangongda's rebellion has nothing to do with you, I can testify for you, arrest this person first!" He pointed to the Guidance Palace Dar's confidant.
The Yulin Army hesitated for a moment, and several people took the lead to control Nangongda's confidant.
One of the imperial guards pointed at Qi Yan with a knife: "There are so many of us, what if you cross the river and demolish the bridge?"
Qi Yan: "Everyone, killing me can only be done for a while, without me as a witness, it will do you no good. I know that most of you are descendants of aristocratic families, imagine your clansmen! Everyone... Nangong Rebel, you have already killed the rebel, and come back with me with his body and accomplices, not only are you not at fault, but you have contributed!"
The imperial guards were whispering, and there were those who believed and those who didn't. Qi Yan was also beating drums in his heart, forcing himself to show calmness.
Qi Yan: "Everyone, Zhongshu Ling, Master Xing and Taiwei, Master Lu, have already understood Nangongda's conspiracy. I followed him, and it was also the intention of several His Royal Highnesses and adults. As long as I do my best to testify for everyone, it can be guaranteed. Everyone is safe." The implication: Many people have seen what Qi Yan has come out of, and if she kills her, it will only make their guilt heavier.
There are many confidants of Nangongda in the team, but at this time Nangongda is dead, and it is useless for them to incite them. If they speak out and are noticed, they may become scapegoats.
Therefore, these people could only watch Qi Yan's words to appease the emotions of the Royal Forest Army. Several leaders of the Royal Forest Army gathered together to study it, and decided to use the dead horse as a living horse doctor, trusting Qi Yan once.
The most important thing is: these people are relatively high-born, and their fathers or elders in the clan are officials in the court. Although most of them are officials below the fourth rank, they are more comprehensive than those from the local officials. .
They recognized Qi Yan: Princess Zhen Zhen's consort, Empress Ma was just given the posthumous title of supreme honor, and Princess Zhen Zhen, the only direct daughter, has a more noble status.
A few people gathered in one place to discuss in a low voice: "Brothers, just trust him for once."
"What if he betrays us?"
"The law does not blame the public, there are so many of us."
"What should I do if I cross the river and demolish the bridge? Are you not afraid that the court will settle accounts in the autumn?"
"Nangongda killed him. We have seen it with so many eyes. He has no choice now."
"Nangongda's rebellion, does it depend on his entourage? All fools know that there must be an internal response. What should the court do if they continue to investigate?"
"...Then we can only protect ourselves wisely. At least the lives of those of us can be saved. If it's a big deal, we will all blame on those people outside. If one survives, one is the other."
"It makes sense, as long as there is Zhen Zhen's consort to testify to us, at least our thousand brothers can survive, and then we will say..."
"Let's just say that those who surrounded Ganquan Palace rebelled, we are here to escort them!"
"That's right, that's a good idea."
"What about the brothers outside? Why don't we just kill him and then leave each other as if nothing happened!"
"You pissed your horse? Didn't you listen to what he said just now? Master Lu and Master Zhong Shuling know about this, and who will testify for us when he dies? It's not our leaders who are unlucky without witnesses. What? You take care of those people below, do you think they won't betray you if the incident is investigated layer by layer?"
"Okay, let's just follow what the boss said. If a prince dies, the court will pursue it no matter what. If another prince-in-law dies, none of us can escape."
"Fuck, I thought that following Nangong Dagan's vote would turn over, but it turned out to be like this."
"Wealth and honor are at risk. If you can't ask for it, it's important to save your life. Don't delay. Maybe the inner hall has heard the wind."
…
Several leaders reached a consensus, and one of them stood in front of the team and raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, I won't tell you if the time is more pressing. If you are asked later, you will say that we are here to escort, remember? ?"
The team sparsely responded a few times, and the leader shouted angrily: "It's all fucking dead? Remember no!"
"remember!"
Qi Yan let out a long sigh of relief, fear pouring out of her heart.
In fact, Qi Yan didn't expect Nangongda to be in such a hurry, but intuition told her that Nangongda might make small moves.
Although the matter in front of him was temporarily resolved and his life was saved, he had just passed by Hades several times just now.
Several imperial guards lifted Nangongda's body, picked up Qi Yan's dagger while carrying Nangongda's entourage, and followed Qi Yan to the Forbidden Palace.
Qi Yan said again: "Just send a few teams to follow me, and further ahead is the main hall where His Majesty's spirit stopped, so as not to avoid it."
Several leaders were divided into two groups, one group took a dozen people and Qi Yan away, and the rest stayed behind to collude.
Walking to the corner, Qi Yan reminded again "kindly": "Please come to the front and pick up all the arrows that you just shot."
…
The several imperial guards did as they were told, and at the same time they had some confidence in their hearts. It seemed that the concubine really wanted to help them.
The base camp of the patrol battalion is in the west of the city. Lu Zhongxing and Liu Ziyu left Ganquan Palace all the way to the west. As a result, the first palace wall of Ganquan Palace was stopped by the Royal Forest Army. Lu Zhongxing was eager to save people and seized the hands of two Royal Forest Army with Liu Ziyu. The weapon, cut a bloody path, found a place where the guard was weak and ran over the wall.
But this move also angered the guards who had not been informed, and they pursued Lu Zhongxing and Liu Ziyu.
It is the same mission, but the situation on Chen Chuansi's side is completely different. Chen Chuansi has been living in the inner court for more than ten years after entering the palace when he was young, and the Royal Forest Army will change every few years. The roads are more familiar. The nobles in the palace usually walk on wide roads, and most of the royal guards patrol there. They may not know about some secluded paths.
Chen Chuansi used this advantage of his own to successfully bypass the second palace wall of Ganquan Palace. Then, instead of rushing out, he came to a side courtyard and used the water tank in the courtyard to climb over it. Road wall, take the path to the adjoining Fengzao Palace.
Fengzao Palace is the residence of the queens of all dynasties. Since the death of Ma Shih, the palace has been empty. From the outside, it still maintains its former scenery. However, Nangong has not come here for many years after he fell ill. With the annual repair funds from the Inner Court Division, the interior of Fengzao Palace has been abandoned.
Chen Chuansi came to a remote courtyard, waded through the mud that did not cover his feet, and walked to the wall. There was a drainage tank by the wall, and there were many footprints in front of one of the water tanks.
Chen Chuansi came to the front of the water tank and jumped in with the edge of the tank.
There is a hole in the water tank, which is connected to a dog hole in the palace wall. Going out from here is a gap between the palace wall and the palace wall. People who don’t usually go out, keep going out and drill a few more dog holes like this. , you can reach the corner door.
In this solemn and solemn inner court, the nobles have their way, and the villains have their own way.
According to Chen Chuansi's knowledge, many chiefs and aunts in the inner court have mansions outside the palace. This huge inner court needs a lot of money to maintain its operation every day. Three melons and two dates are enough to feed a large family when taken outside.
These nobles, princes, princesses, they can't remember how many gadgets they have, including Nangong Rang's old age, many servants stole Nangong Rang's things under the nose of Si Jiu.
The servants will be searched when they go out from the main gate. From the past, they also have their own way...
Looking at the entire inner court, among these minions, only Si Jiu had the best life.
Although Chen Chuansi is loyal, he also plans for himself. This road is a secret that everyone knows by heart.
