Chapter 1499: Assassination in the Deep Palace

Dozens of cavalry were speeding on the streets, and no one turned back because everyone knew that the Nancheng was no longer saved, and it had become a fact that Chang'an City was broken, and what was next would be a cruel battle for the city.

The windows of some houses on both sides of the street were pushed open, and some people stared at the galloping cavalry and made a terrifying laugh. In the sudden sound of horse hooves, countless grease poured down from the windows and poured on the cavalry. The next moment, rockets flew away with a roar.

In an instant, the cavalrymen became firemen, screaming and falling off their horses, rolling on the streets, and the same burning horses were neighing and running forward until they fell down, or they were not defying things, hitting their heads on the wall, and their tendons were broken and their bones were broken.

A man in black jumped out from both sides, a sharp sword light flashed, and the struggling knight screamed and fell to the ground. The flames were still burning, but the man no longer had a sound.

Looking at the burning corpses all over the ground, a man in black laughed and said, "I will never fail to kill you, let's go."

The ghostly man in black sank into the black sack. In the darkness not far from here, Cao Jae trembled all over and his eyes were blood red. He Zicheng on one side pulled him tightly.

He Zicheng had been hanging out in the world for a long time before joining the army. He not only had rich battlefield experience, but also had extremely rich experience in the world. Just as dozens of cavalry rushed forward, he led the prince Cao Zhi to hide first. As expected, none of these dozens of cavalry were spared. Nancheng has now become a big trap.

"We are going to the military camp." Cao Zhen finally calmed down.

"Your Highness, we can't go now." He Zicheng held Cao Za's hand tightly, "You hear, the Nancheng has been broken, and a large number of cavalry have entered the city. When we go out at this time, there is only one way to die. Moreover, who knows whether the black-clothed killers were still ambushing the way to the military camp to rob the killing?"

"Will we have a way to survive if we stay here?" Cao Jie hissed.

"Your Highness, the enemy breaks the city from Nancheng. Their next goal will be to go straight to the palace or attack the entire city separately. Nancheng is the first place they occupied. The defense here will be even more relaxed. Here, we are safe. If we find an opportunity, we can leave the city." He Zicheng ordered.

"Get out of the city?" Cao Zhu suddenly turned around and looked at He Zicheng angrily: "My father is still in the city, and Chang'an can still fight, but I am out of the city?"

"Your Highness!" He Zicheng said: "We don't know how many enemies have come. We don't know how many enemies there are in the city, but we only look at the city defense force at the south gate being turned against by the enemy. The enemy must have a backup plan in Chang'an City. Your Majesty is the master of the master, and there are 3,000 Long Xiang troops stationed in the palace, so there is no danger for the time being. Now, the bell has been ringing in Chang'an City. The Long Xiang army will gather in the palace from all directions. This is the requirement of many drills in the past. As long as Your Majesty does not lose and the palace does not lose, Chang'an will not lose. What Your Majesty wants to do now is to go outside the city and bring back reinforcements."

"Where are reinforcements?" Cao Dayi. Although he thought He Zi was right, where are there reinforcements outside Chang'an City? The Longxiang army that was originally stationed outside the city are now all arranged around Luoyang, and it is difficult to save nearby fires from afar.

"Your Highness, Yulong Mountain, Yulong Mountain and the royal garrison are there, where is the old prince!" He Zicheng reminded Cao.

Cao Zhi was stunned and suddenly realized that yes, there was still a garrison in Yulong Mountain. Although there were not many people, they were among the elite. More importantly, where was the old prince Cao Chong?

"Let's go right now!" He stood up suddenly.

He Zicheng suddenly pressed him down and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, listen, where can we go now?"

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was coming from the south gate.

"We have to hide first." He Zicheng held Cao Za's hand, "When the enemy left and then planned to leave the city, your highness doesn't have to worry too much. There are still 20,000 dragon enclosures in the city, and His Majesty is in charge of the overall situation, so there will definitely be nothing wrong."

With Cao, He Zicheng quietly used a knife to push the door bolt of a house and sneaked in. As soon as their figures disappeared, teams of cavalry had already swept across the street and ran towards the palace.

The first sound of the bell sounded from the south gate to the direction of the palace, it was only half a stick of incense, but it was dozens of miles away. When the bell in the palace rang, Cao Tiancheng was alone in front of the huge lotus pond in the imperial garden.

At this time, there were naturally no lotus flowers in the lotus pond, only a layer of white ice.

Whenever Cao Tiancheng was upset, he always liked to be here alone and be quiet.

The shocked bell rang, and the entire palace was awakened suddenly. At this time, the entire Chang'an City had been covered by the shocked bell ringing. The sleeping giant beast suddenly woke up.

The bell rang, and Cao Tiancheng, who was lying on the huge white jade in front of the lotus pond, stood up suddenly, with a shocked expression on his face. He heard that the bell was not knocked even if it wanted to be knocked, unless Chang'an reached an extremely critical moment.

At this time, he was dozens of miles away from the south city gate, so he naturally could not know what was going on there, but there was no doubt that when he heard the bell ringing, it was because Chang'an encountered something extremely dangerous.

"Come!" he shouted sternly.

What came out was not his close eunuch, but an old eunuch with chicken skin and crane hair, with a hunched body, and it was impossible to tell how old he was. However, the clothes he wore were also one of the most eunuchs in the palace.

Cao Tiancheng's eyes narrowed and he stared at the old eunuch who suddenly appeared: "Who are you? Where are Qin Zhong?"

The old eunuch hissed and laughed: "Your Majesty, the slave is Qin Bang. Qin Zhong and Eunuch Qin fell asleep in the forest. Your Majesty summoned him and the old slave came."

"Who are you?" Cao Tiancheng ignored the old eunuch's chatter and asked.

"I almost forgot what the old slave used to call me. Oh, I used to be Zhou Bang. I have been in the palace for fifty years, and have been a small eunuch to the big eunuch who is now responsible for cleaning the entire imperial city." The old eunuch said proudly. "Although Your Majesty does not recognize me, there are many people in this palace who recognize the old slave and give the old slave face. Even Qin Zhong, the old slave, is watching him step by step to this day."

"The Zhou family's people." Cao Tiancheng gritted his teeth.

"Yes." Zhou Bang nodded, with a sad look in his eyes, "It's been fifty years, and I've long forgotten what home looks like."

"The wealthy families are indeed a cancer on Da Qi. If you don't remove you, how can Da Qi become truly powerful?" Cao Tiancheng said coldly.

"Your Majesty wants to clear us? Hehe, did you hear the shocked hearing the clock? At this moment, the South City Gate has been captured by us, and the army has entered the city. Your Majesty, where is your army? Hahaha, is it still in Luoyang now?" The old eunuch laughed proudly.

"As long as I am still here, Chang'an is here, and Chang'an is here, you will not be able to make a comeback." Cao Tiancheng said uneasy.

"Your Majesty is thinking very well. I am here to kill you!" The old eunuch said proudly.

"Come and kill me?" Cao Tiancheng was a little surprised. He was a master's cultivation level, so of course he could tell that the old eunuch in front of him had no foundation in martial arts.

"Of course it wasn't me who was the one who was the one who had been in the palace for fifty years in order to wait for this day. Before me, there were people like me who had been silently in the palace for a lifetime, and finally died silently in this palace. Your Majesty, I was lucky. I waited when I was about to die. Although it wasn't me who took action, I brought you the one who killed you! Without me, they could not enter the palace. This could be considered as killing you, hahaha!"

"Who can kill me?" Cao Tiancheng laughed loudly. He is a master's cultivation. Even if his opponent has someone of similar skills to him, it is so difficult to kill him. There are a large number of guards in the palace. Once you take action, you will naturally have a sound. Once you have a sound, a large number of guards will come, so how can you still have a chance to kill him?

"We can kill you!" As soon as Cao Tiancheng finished speaking, a voice rang coldly, "Old eunuch, you're done, seeing you pitiful, I let you breathe, the chattering is endless, right?"

"Meng Tiao!" Seeing the visitor, Cao Tiancheng's face finally changed a little." Nantianmen."

Meng Tiao, the leader of the Nantian Gate. Beside him, there were two other people on the left and right, one was Tao Hongzhi, and the other was Mei Dong, another master of the Nantian Gate.

The three masters occupied three directions and slowly rushed towards Cao Tiancheng.

"Mengtiao, Cao has always been generous to you, Nantianmen, why do you betray him?" Cao Tiancheng was shocked and angry. He finally understood why his opponent was so sure to kill him. The three masters worked together and did have the ability to take his life.

"Your Majesty, you just said that it is Cao's good to us. Cao's family, it's not just you. We betrayed you, not Cao's family. Isn't the one in Luoyang also the surname Cao?" Meng Tiao said with a smile.

"Why?" Cao Tiancheng asked angrily.

"Your Majesty, don't you understand yet? You want to clear out the wealthy families, but Nantianmen is now one of the largest wealthy families in Daqi!" Meng Tak said with a smile: "Our Nantianmen has countless land, countless shops, and countless staff. The first step you have to clear Zhou's family is that we will be the next step?"

Cao Tiancheng fell silent.

That's what he thought.

The next moment, he moved, not forward, but backward, and did not turn around, but rushed towards the lotus pond like lightning. Facing the three masters joining forces, he had no choice but to escape.

There is ice in the pond.

There are people under the ice.
