Xiao Ziya sat in the carriage, raised her hand and pressed her temple, her eyes closed.
"Master, the old master has brought someone to meet you. He has been ambushed in Xilong mountain." the voice of the waiter came from the outside and let Xiao Ziya slowly open her eyes.
That's good news.
At present, there is no news in the palace, that is, Xiao Jin'an is dead.
Fortunately, he didn't bet all his treasure on Xiao Jin'an. He had long seen that Xiao Jin'an was difficult to become a great man. The reason why he lurks around Xiao Jin'an is to use him as a shield and a cover.
But what made him feel anxious was that the north gate of the capital was as dull as this endless night.
Did Xiao Jin'an escape smoothly from the palace? If he escaped, according to the original plan, Rouran soldiers and horses secretly ambushed near the north gate. He also "generously" mobilized several guns to them. If Xiao Jin'an moved fast enough, he should have attacked at the north gate now.
According to his original plan, Xiao Jin'an and Rouran people fired the first shot, which first attracted the attention of the capital guards, and asked the guards from the periphery of the capital to rush to the north gate first. After the war at the north gate started, the Dongsheng King stationed outside the east gate opened the city wall, and then asked the Dongsheng king to take people into the capital by water, Open the west gate and the South Gate in turn, and let the Allied forces of the other two kings break through the city. The three-way army and horses press directly into the palace, forcing his majesty to write a abdication edict. If he doesn't obey, just kill him.
Wei Yi was dragged down in the South and suffered from lack of food. The Xie family is now depressed. Even if the Xie family can organize a little resistance, the Xie family has always been the first civil servant. How about taking the iron cavalry of the coalition army? As long as the action is fast enough, the throne of the imperial dynasty will be firmly in his hands before dawn!
But now in this plan, Xiao Jin'an's first shot seems to have been misfired.
Among all the original plans, the only thing he didn't consider was the dead Xiao Jin!
Xiao Jin's sudden appearance made him feel a burst of suffocation.
They should have grown up together. He has never been so jealous of Xiao Jin as he is now!
Originally, Xiao Jin was his poor object. His grandmother didn't hurt and his uncle didn't love him. When he was a child, he was thrown out of the palace and fostered in their home. He always looked at Xiao Jin with a compassionate eye.
Even the prince?
So in the past, when he felt bored, as long as he saw Xiao Jin's situation, he would feel some comfort.
Xiao Jin hid it from everyone when she entered the royal guards, but he didn't hide it from him. He can clearly remember that day Xiao Jin went to the study to find him and stood quietly beside him for a long time before whispering that he had applied for the royal guards. At that time, Xiao Jin was just a pale teenager, thin and cold. Even standing there, people could not feel the smell of human fireworks. It seemed that she was not a real person.
After receiving his affirmation and encouragement, Xiao Jin still remembers the joy in her eyes.
Now, the pale boy who was silent and silent like a shadow destroyed all his plans. Xiao Jin's emergence was like implanting an unpredictable variable in the whole perfect plan.
Xiao Ziya doesn't know how long Xiao Jin has been in ambush in the palace, but he knows from the bottom of his heart that once Xiao Jin lurks in the palace, what he has done in recent years may have been exposed.
So far, none of the vassal kings has successfully left the palace, which means that they have been arrested by Xiao Jin.
So the next move, he will speed up.
"Now that grandpa has arrived, let's inform the East Gate in advance!" Xiao Ziya said to the waiter. "You quickly let someone detonate the gunpowder buried under the city wall, directly blow up the city wall, and order King Dongsheng to fire in the direction of the imperial palace. First attract all the guards near the east gate."
Now he can't afford any delay. He must seize all the king's troops in his own hands before the news of the capture of the kings spread.
"Yes!" the waiter hurried to give orders according to Xiao Ziya's instructions.
Not long after, there was a loud noise from the east gate, which shook the world. It was particularly shocking in this silent night.
Xiao Ziya could even feel that the carriage she was riding was shaking more fiercely because of the loud noise of her life.
He raised his hand and pressed the wall of the car, but a slightly cold smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
He didn't want to kill so many evils. If he followed his plan, the people in the capital wouldn't need many casualties, but now he can't care so much.
Xiao Jin, no matter how clever he was, probably didn't expect that he would buy explosives in the waterway near the east gate. Even if he could prevent Dongsheng king, he couldn't stop these gunpowder.
In the roar, the carriage sped through the darkness.
"How far is it to meet my grandfather?" because of these loud noises, Xiao Ziya's voice seemed a lot lighter.
"Soon." Shi Jian shouted back as he was driving the car.
That's good!
Everyone means that the old Gongbei king has passed away. In fact, many years ago, the old Gongbei king passed the throne to Xiao Ziya's father in the name of wandering, and left the capital alone.
How can the former glory of Gongbei palace decline? If you don't force your majesty too hard, why will Gongbei palace fall like this? Why did his grandfather leave Beijing.
After Lao Gongbei left the palace, he ostensibly traveled to the south. In fact, he has been active among the southern countries in another capacity.
If he had not worked hard, the countries in the South would not have formed a coalition to invade the main beam and use this war to drag Wei Yi down.
As long as Wei Yi is in the capital, no one can shake the guard in the capital. It's too difficult to get rid of Wei Yi, so we have to use war to trip his hands and feet, send him far to the south, and then find a way to trap him in the south.
"Do our people have any response from the street capital? How's the situation at the east gate?" Xiao Ziya asked after a while.
"I don't know. There's no news yet." the waiter drove his horse to the side of the carriage.
"You send someone to summon those Jianghu killers." Xiao Ziya thought for a moment and said to the waiter, "let them start setting fire everywhere in the capital."
"Yes." the waiter immediately sent out Xiao Ziya's order.
The more chaotic the capital is now, the more powerful it is for him.
It's no wonder that others didn't bother the residents in his plan. These were forced by Xiao Jin!
There are fires everywhere in the capital. The soldiers and horses patrolling the city are going to put out the fire. As long as there is a mess, the chances of fishing in troubled waters will increase. The burning streets and people fighting fires everywhere will delay the mobilization of the capital guards, resulting in their untimely mobilization.
Outside the east gate, several loud noises were not emitted from the ship of Dongsheng king, but from two magnificent huge boats slowly down the Jinshui River and out of the East Gate waterway.
After transformation, the painted boat was wider than the ordinary hull. A layer of exquisitely carved protective plates were removed, revealing three rows of neatly arranged artillery hidden in the hull.
The drawing of the boat was made by Wei ruoyi according to the gun ship in the pirate film he had seen.
In the huge dock in Dongsheng state, she is not only transforming artillery, but also building ships.
One after the other, the two painted boats dropped their anchors in the widest waterway in the east gate. The iron anchor fell into the water and hit a huge spark. Because of the power of the iron anchor, the painted boat was pulled horizontally, which was just convenient for the muzzle of the three-tier artillery to face outward.
The cannon of Huafang was fired immediately after Xiao Ziya ordered to ignite the gunpowder buried under the city wall outside the east gate. The first gun directly crossed the moving city wall and landed near the wharf outside the city.
The team received the news from Xiao Ziya that the person who was preparing to ignite the gunpowder fuse at night had just lit the torch in his hand, and was completely chopped to the ground by a group of people in black who fell from the sky.
The eyes of a man in black, led by him, were shining in the light of the fire. After removing all the small group of people, he pulled down his scarf and revealed a face with huge scars. It was the eleventh day who had not appeared for a long time with Xiao Jin's secret visit to Beijing.
"Patriarch, I just received a message from Xiao Ziya to let our people set fire everywhere in the capital." in the dark, another man in black ran to me. He knelt down and hugged his fist in front of the scarred man.
"He really has no scruples!" 11 sneered.
Since he came to Beijing, with the help of Xiao Jin, he killed the sect leader of his killer sect with his previous experience. He took the sect leader token as a new sect leader, and took advantage of the chaos to annex several small sects. Now in the Jianghu, he can be regarded as the first brand in the killer world.
Xiao Ziya wants to cooperate with people in the Jianghu. He has been cooperating with 11 for a long time.
Eleven was born as a killer. He was full of Jianghu habits. Even those who were as careful as Xiao Ziya couldn't find anything wrong with eleven after several attempts.
Therefore, Xi is the most hidden and powerful chess piece that Xiao Jin inserted around Xiao Ziya.
Xiao Ziya could never have imagined that the leader of the Jianghu sect who worked closely with her was an alliance with Xiao Jin.
"We can't burn the houses. We should accumulate some virtue," said eleven. "Pass the news to Prince Yongning and see how he decides."
"Yes." the man in black quickly disappeared into the night again.
Eleven pulled out the fuse exposed outside the city wall and covered with soil and weeds, and then patted the soil on his hand.
Even if he didn't ambush here and wait for someone to set fire, the gunpowder under the wall wouldn't be ignited. At most, those people lit a fuse.
Because the gunpowder was transferred by them long ago!
