Chapter 136 Even if you die, you will be splashed with dirty water
Zhu Youxiao and his cavalry company rushed into the Forbidden Army like a torrent of broken gates. Then they cut through without any hindrance like a hot knife cutting through butter.
At this point in the battle, the Forbidden Army had no fighting will left. Thousands of casualties were already unbearable for them. If the five hundred archers were smoothly transferred to the front line by Wang Gandang and started shooting, they might still have a chance.
The vitality can disrupt Zhu Youxiao's spear phalanx.
But obviously, now that the cavalry has accelerated and started running, the Forbidden Army has no chance of winning. The two hundred cavalry wearing iron armor charging into the formation are simply not something that they, who are already at the end of their battle, can withstand.
After breaking through the infantry, the cavalry once again entered the herd and rushed into the midst of the archers. Immediately, large swaths of the archers died on the spot, and the rest dispersed and fled in all directions.
After dispersing the archers, Zhu Youxiao did not move forward. He then led the cavalry in a detour, turned around and rushed towards the infantry group again. Iron hooves flew, trampled wantonly, sabers waved, and blood surged like a fountain.
At the same time, under the command of the First Battalion Commander Li Yuyu, the spear phalanx began to move forward slowly, holding its spears flat like a steel hedgehog, constantly squeezing the living space of the Forbidden Army soldiers.
There were phalanxes squeezing outside and cavalry raging inside. The Forbidden Army could no longer hold on and turned around to run away. Zhu Youxiao did not block their escape path, but just chased them from behind like herding sheep, watching.
If there are those who want to gather together, charge forward and break them up.
Wang Gandang, Xi Li, Cao Huachun, and even the two little men turned around and ran away the first moment the Forbidden Army collapsed. They didn't know what the disintegrated soldiers were like on the battlefield, but now they could see the disintegrated Forbidden Army just by looking at them.
Knowing how ferocious they are, with their ferocious expressions and wielding steel knives, anyone who dares to stand in front of them will be killed by them.
This chase did not stop until they reached the Qianqing Gate. As they ran with all their strength, everyone's physical strength was almost lost rapidly. When they got here, they encountered the palace wall blocking the road, and they were shocked to realize that they had no way to run.
When they came back to their senses, they realized that their physical strength was extremely exhausted, and they immediately collapsed to the ground with their hands and feet limp.
Zhu Youxiao's cavalry arrived first, and then kept wandering around. Then came the infantrymen who ran in columns with spears in changing formations. They lined up in formation, with their spears leveled, to surround the enemy.
After leaving Baoshanmen, Li Sancai ran all the way until he could no longer hear the shouts of death from behind, then he stopped. He looked around blankly and realized that he had actually reached Qianqingmen.
"Who is here?" A loud shout came from the palace wall, and under the bright moonlight, a man poked his head down from the palace wall.
"It's me, Li Sancai, open the door quickly and let me in." Li Sancai shouted upwards. He didn't feel safe staying outside. It would be safer to enter Qianqing Palace.
"It turns out to be Mr. Li." He looked around for a long time, and then the general guarding the palace gate recognized him. But then another sentence came out from the wall.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry. My Majesty has been ordered to do so. No one can open the door except her." The general shouted, which made Li Sancai a little angry. He opened his mouth to curse.
"You..." Before he could say anything, a basket was thrown down from above, "Sir, if you want to come in, you will have to resign yourself."
"Ahem!" Li Sancai swallowed his words and coughed violently, but he couldn't care less at the moment. He rolled and crawled into the basket, and was pulled up by the soldiers.
When he reached the palace wall, he realized why the guards here didn't dare to open the door. There were only about twenty people in total. Seeing the pitiful number of people in front of him, his confused mind realized in vain that this seemed to be an order given by himself. , this trip will definitely be successful, all we need to do is to leave some manpower to guard the Qianqing Palace so that His Majesty’s body will not be disturbed.
"Huhu~" Li Sancai collapsed on the ground, leaning against the wall and gasping for air. At this moment, the solid wall gave him a false sense of security, and his pounding heart gradually calmed down.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and his body jumped up from the ground. Then he quickly moved his steps and ran towards Qianqing Palace, turning a deaf ear to the gatekeeper general behind him who asked him how he was doing.
At this time, Li Sancai's mind was completely clear. He had clearly realized that tonight's mutiny had failed, and what awaited him would be the three implicated clans. No emperor would be merciful to those who seek to usurp the throne.
When he thought of this terrible consequence, his face turned pale, without a trace of blood. At the same time, he felt extremely regretful, regretting that he should not have been so greedy for profit that he came to the palace to stand out. The result was good, and he became the standout. He must be set up as a model and severely punished.
"Even if you die, I won't make it easy for you!" A ruthless look appeared in Li Sancai's eyes. His face was ferocious, and he was constantly thinking in his heart. He planned to use the last time of his life to arrange some fog and ruthlessly He ruthlessly smeared Zhu Youxiao with dirty water. If he succeeds, maybe thousands of years later he, Li Sancai, can become a hero who resists the tyrant.
Entering the Nuan Pavilion where Zhu Changluo died, Li Sancai saw the eunuch he was looking for, an old eunuch, sleeping on the table with a thick yellow scroll, and on the bed next to him was Zhu Changluo's body. Qingzhong The pale corpse now had some spots on it, and it looked extremely terrifying.
As soon as they entered the Nuan Pavilion, Li Sancai's heavy footsteps and heavy breathing woke up the eunuch. The other eunuch rubbed his eyes. After seeing him, he was obviously happy, "Mr. Li, I have finished what you told me." ." With that said, he handed over the yellow thick scroll.
Li Sancai took it and without even looking at it, he put the scroll next to the candle and ignited it. The flames suddenly jumped up and burned the scroll.
"Sir, what are you doing..." The old eunuch stared blankly, not knowing why.
"The plan has changed. You can draft a new imperial edict and ask me to write it." Li Sancai directly ordered without explaining.
"Yes...yes..." The old eunuch did not dare to say more, so he replied. Then, under Li Sancai's recitation, he wrote the imperial edict with a splash of ink.
Although Zhu Changluo has only been on the throne for a month, he has also developed his own habit, that is, all documents and edicts are handled by Wang An, not others. And this old eunuch is imitating Wang An's handwriting at this moment, writing a The content of the imperial edict is very simple. It just enumerates some of Zhu Youxiao's evil deeds and abolishes his position as crown prince and replaces him with Zhu Youjian, the fifth son of the emperor.
Then the seal was stamped, and after a few bangs, an authentic imperial edict came out. After that, under Li Sancai's instructions, the old eunuch began to write on a piece of residual cloth torn from Zhu Changluo's body.
Get up, this time I am writing a suicide note.
The old eunuch carefully wrote, stroke by stroke, and Zhu Changluo's usual handwriting soon appeared on the scraps of cloth. Compared with the handwriting he had written before, it was exactly the same, making it impossible to distinguish. This is the skill of the old eunuch.
It was precisely because of this that Li Sancai was confident to throw dirty water on Zhu Youxiao.
The whole suicide note narrates the whole thing in Zhu Changluo's voice. Of course, this whole story was made up by Li Sancai himself. In the suicide note, Zhu Youxiao became a heinous villain, poisoning the emperor's father and hiding soldiers.
, insulting orphans and widows, and conspiring to usurp the throne.
As long as these two physical objects are circulated, given the Ming Dynasty literati's habit of writing reading notes and compiling albums, these will definitely be passed down to future generations in the form of unofficial histories. When the time comes...
As he wrote, the old eunuch's hands began to shake. The contents of the suicide note were simply horrifying. The events and contents written in it were unheard of and unseen by the old eunuch. They were completely nonsense.
"Sir..." The old eunuch raised his head tremblingly. The brush in his hand dropped and fell on the remaining cloth, making a black ink mark.
Poof!
There was a sound of a sharp sword penetrating flesh. Li Sancai held the long sword in his hand and stabbed it into the old eunuch's throat with precision, and then pulled it out with all his strength.
puff!
A trace of blood was brought out by the force of the long sword and splashed on the remaining cloth next to it, adding a touch of blood to it.
"Ho ho!" The old eunuch whimpered a few times, and then died in fear and disbelief. With a thud, the body fell to the ground, and there was no more sound.
After throwing away the long sword, Li Sancai picked up the scrap of cloth, looked at the ink and blood stains on it, and smiled with satisfaction, "This way, it looks more real."
After drying the ink, he wrapped the will and the note in a bag, put them in his arms, and left in a hurry. When he came to Qianqing Gate again, Li Sancai was surprised to find that Prince Zhu Youxiao had not come here yet.
"God is helping me!" He whispered, and once again asked the guard to put him down in a hanging basket. After reaching the bottom, Li San looked towards the direction of Ciqing Palace, and vaguely saw countless figures heading towards this place.
He came running wildly.
"Leave quickly before the other party has sealed off the palace." Li Sancai lowered his head, picked a remote place, and left in a hurry. At this time, he still had a little hope in his heart. Maybe with this little thing, he might be able to
Just survive.
Not long after he left, that is to say, the Forbidden Army retreated here in defeat. Blocked by the palace wall, they immediately relaxed and no longer had the strength to escape.
Following closely were the cavalry led by Zhu Youxiao. They galloped back and forth here to prevent these broken soldiers from escaping. After a while, the infantry rushed over and lined up with their spears, surrounding everyone.
He came to Qianqing's sect.
Amidst the clanging sound of metal, Zhu Youxiao turned over and dismounted, and walked on the ground with a clanking clang. His originally silver-white full-body armor was now stained with blood red. When he arrived in front of the formation, the spear soldiers automatically separated and gave him
