Chapter 640 War Drums Beat the Imperial Capital(1/2)
"Dongdongdongdongdong..."
When the war drums of the Huangzhou Prince's Mansion sounded in front of the East Palace, the entire imperial capital was shocked!
Who dares to start a war in the imperial capital?
For a moment!
The entire Imperial Capital City Defense Forces were all on the city walls, and they all seemed to be facing a great enemy. Spy was sent inside and outside the city.
The Eastern Palace was built next to the palace, so when the war drums were beating, the Imperial Capital City Defense Force thought something happened to the palace!
at this time.
The general of the city defense army stared at the direction of the palace and said with a gloomy face: "Come here, send a spy to the palace to investigate and see what's going on?"
"yes!"
At this time, the deputy general of the city defense army came forward and said with a worried look: "General, the sound of war drums sounded from the imperial city. Can the last general understand this way... Someone launched a mutiny!"
The general of the city defense army gritted his teeth and pulled out a flag: "Come on, send the order. While the entire army is on guard, he will draw 3,000 troops and follow me to the palace to check it out in case the palace mutiny!"
"yes!"
At this time, the deputy general of the City Defense Force came forward and said, "General is cautious, so I admire him!"
"If there are really rioters attacking the palace and the general leads his troops to suppress the rebellion, it will be a merit of saving the Lord. From then on, the general will rise to the top and become the pillar of the court!"
When the generals of the city defense army heard this, they felt excited!
"Speed up!"
However, the deputy general of the City Defense Army said again: "But General, if the emperor has no order to mobilize the army for no reason... it is a death sentence!"
City Defense General: "..."
This guy said all the good and bad things!
What a fucking talent!
He glanced at the deputy general of the City Defense Forces deeply: "It's better to do this. In order to prevent the thieves from cooperating with each other, I will be in charge here!"
Then, he said in a deep voice: "The deputy commander of the city defense army obeys the order!"
The deputy commander of the city defense army was a little confused: "The last general is here!"
The general of the city defense army said with a smile: "I ordered you to lead three thousand troops from our headquarters to patrol the imperial city. If there are any thieves in rebellion, quell the rebellion immediately!"
"yes!"
The deputy commander of the city defense army took the order reluctantly, and was as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.
He was in a very unhappy mood!
Overplayed!
Let the fire burn on myself!
But the commander of the city defense army was happy!
If there was no chaos in the palace, and if the emperor blamed the Imperial Capital City Defense Force for not ordering the troops, the blame would be borne by this "smart" deputy commander.
However, if there was indeed chaos in the palace, the Imperial Capital Defense Army's great contribution to quelling the rebellion would also fall on his commander.
This plan to kill two birds with death is perfect!
He is too smart!
at the same time.
All the major families, families, powerful people and powerful people in the imperial capital were alarmed, and private troops left the palace and drove towards the East Palace!
Their ideas were the same as those of the Imperial City Defense Army.
If you have the chance to save the car, you will definitely get the credit.
If nothing happens, nothing happens.
but.
Sima Jian, Li Jian and others had more ideas.
at this time.
The commander of the imperial guards in the palace was also shocked and rushed out of the duty room and shouted: "Where is the war drum sounding?"
"have no idea!"
His personal guards on both sides were also confused: "General, the sound of war drums seems to be coming from the East Palace."
A trace of horror flashed in the eyes of the Imperial Commander, and he murmured: "The East Palace is right next to the palace, which means that the sound of war drums comes from outside the palace... Is someone going to attack the palace?"
As soon as this said, his personal guards on both sides were shocked and said in unison: "Military!"
The commander of the Imperial Guard said with a serious expression: "Send the order, all the Imperial Guards will go to the imperial city and prepare to face the enemy!"
"Come on, find out quickly!"
"yes!"
"Let's go! Follow the commander to see what happened?"
"yes!"
Suddenly, the entire imperial city, the imperial guards went up to the wall, drew arrows and bows, and showed off their swords and guns, ready to repel all invading enemies!
Especially in the imperial city near the Eastern Palace, there were heavy troops gathering, as if facing a great enemy!
at this time.
In the Gushan Hall.
Emperor Xia, who was accompanying Concubine Qin, was also shocked!
He listened with his ears and frowned: "It's the sound of war drums from the Huangzhou Army!"
Concubine Qin's pretty face was full of nervousness: "Your Majesty, is something wrong with Xiaojiu?"
Emperor Xia frowned, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and he asked a faint question outside the door: "Where is the war drum of the Huangzhou Army ringing?"
Outside the door, a blood slave with blood womb appeared: "Report to Your Majesty, you are from the direction of the Eastern Palace!"
Emperor Xia frowned even more: "East Palace Gate?"
"yes!"
"Is the Eastern Palace related to the Ye Mansion's family extermination case?"
"Xiao Jiu wants to enter the East Palace?"
Although Emperor Xia did not see it with his own eyes, he guessed the matter: "Wait! The urgent report is coming!"
"Don't panic if you beloved!"
"I'll know what's going on right away!"
After half an incense stick.
“Urgent report…”
A young imperial guard rushed into Gushan Hall and knelt outside the door and said, "Your Majesty, the King of Huangzhou led the generals of Huangzhou to form an army in front of the Eastern Palace and were confronting the guards of the Eastern Palace. Huangzhou army beat the war drums and intended to launch an attack on the Eastern Palace.
attack!"
"The commander asked for instructions, will the imperial guards intervene to stop them?"
Emperor Xia's eyes lit up: "This war drum beats an incense stick but there is no sound of killing, nor does it smoke the war. Did the Huangzhou Army attack?"
The Imperial Guard's Messenger shook his head: "I haven't launched an attack yet!"
"Hahaha......"
Emperor Xia smiled!
His brows stretched, his eyes full of relief: "Concubine, Xiaojiu is following me, smart!"
"He knew that without my will, attacking the Eastern Palace was equivalent to rebellion!"
"So, he made an attacking posture and beat the drum to tell me that he found out that the Eastern Palace was related to the Ye Mansion's family-killing case, but he did not have my will, so he could only take a search posture, but could not really attack.
Donggong, ask me what to do?"
Concubine Qin's pretty face was full of confusion: "Didn't Tian'er send someone to send a message?"
"Hahaha......"
Emperor Xia smiled even more happily: "My beloved concubine!"
"The sound of his war drums is the letter he sent!"
"He believes that I can understand what he means, so there is no need to send a message!"
Concubine Qin's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her face was full of curiosity: "What if His Majesty didn't understand?"
Emperor Xia said solemnly: "Then I will scold him!"
