Chapter 790 Sadness(1/2)
Looking at the soldiers who started siege again, the eldest prince suddenly felt a chill.
I don’t know when, but now there are only a few thousand people left in the tens of thousands of troops surrounding him.
And his greatest reliance was that Prince Kang still had no news.
Looking up at the cool moonlight, the eldest prince suddenly felt a little suspicious: Tonight may not be as easy as he thought before.
Shaking his head, he forcibly threw this worry out of his mind, staring at the palace city with his eyes tightly, hoping that the palace gate would be opened in the next moment. Then he grabbed his father and announced the blood edict of the Supreme Emperor to the world, ascend the throne and become emperor, those who follow others will prosper, and those who go against others will perish.
"Your Highness, General Hu and his men left the imperial city from Bei'anmen!"
A bolt from the blue reached the ears of the eldest prince, causing him to not ask if this was true for a while!
Bei'anmen, the north gate of the imperial city.
Hu Yong, did he actually run away?
Is it so scary in Beijing?
The eldest prince's face was ashamed.
The key is, why did he run away? Even if he betrays himself now, does he think Emperor Zhengqing can forgive him?
Emperor Zhengqing above also received news. Although he didn't understand why Hu Yong escaped, he obviously didn't care much.
"Your rebellious son, don't you regret it?" Emperor Zhengqing shouted again.
He had already seen several "long dragons" coming here in the distance.
That was the people from the Beijing camp.
"Your Highness, I have a way to make Your Highness invincible."
"Sir, say it."
The eldest prince ignored Emperor Zhengqing. He knew that the capital camp had broken through the city, and Hu Yong's escape meant that he could no longer enter the palace.
"Your Majesty is over fifty years old now, and there are only three sons in total. If the other two sons suddenly die, your Majesty will definitely not kill His Highness for the sake of the country's inheritance..."
The eldest prince understood as soon as he heard this. He looked at the peerless master who had defected to him a few years ago, and said nodded: "But, the fourth brother is only seven years old..."
The second prince and the fourth prince are now detained by him in the eldest prince's mansion.
This was originally something he was planning to use to threaten Emperor Zhengqing.
But he never thought of really killing them. Or rather, he never thought of killing the Fourth Prince because the Fourth Prince was too young and had little impact on his great cause.
But now...
Seeing the thousands of imperial guards under his command who were no longer interested in fighting and the soldiers of various royal families who threatened him to win over, he was in a state of silence.
Jingying is about to come!
"chatter......"
The old man laughed strangely and said, "If your highness can't bear it, I have another way."
"What method?"
The old man whispered a few words in the eldest prince's ear.
"This..." The eldest prince looked terrified, but then he pondered.
Although there were still a few streets, he had already heard the sound of gunfire coming from the Jing camp.
Zhao Quan obviously couldn't resist the Beijing camp.
Perhaps, it's time to prepare a way out for yourself...
After gritting his teeth, he called his confidant: "Go and bring the second prince and the fourth prince here!" Then he also whispered a few words in his confidant's ear.
The confidant looked at him with a look almost the same as he had seen the old man before, but said nothing, and turned around and left.
"Hell!" Mr. Wu suddenly turned his horse's head.
"What are you doing sir?" the eldest prince asked.
"Haha, don't worry, Your Highness, I'm not a Hu Yong. I'm going to collect a debt. If we are all alive at that time, I will definitely come and help you sincerely."
......
Half a quarter of an hour later, the palace gate was still broken.
The rebels with low morale seemed to see hope, revitalize a spirit and rush into the palace one after another.
"Send Your Majesty back to the Daming Palace!"
Emperor Zhengqing saw that he was sure of victory, so he naturally would not show off his courage. Under the desperate cover of Wei Lize and others, he retreated towards the Daming Palace.
With the help of the Daming Palace, you can at least block it for a long time.
The eldest prince has no chance after all.
Another half a quarter of an hour later, Jia Qing finally brought people to Xi'an Gate.
But here is empty, except for the corpses all over the ground.
"Vomit~" Princess Xingyue couldn't help but run to the city wall to retching when she saw such a gloomy and terrifying scene.
Niu Zhan and others naturally stepped forward to protect them.
"Walk!"
Jia Qing did not stop and led his troops into the palace.
Outside the Daming Palace, the imperial guards who were still following the eldest prince still saw the soldiers surrounding the Beijing camp, and finally completely lost their fighting spirit and put down their weapons. Only the eldest prince's soldiers were still making fearless resistance.
The palace gate is open.
Emperor Zhengqing came out.
"I am late to save the Lord, please give up your crime!"
Jia Qing quickly stepped forward and said to himself.
"Your, you are innocent!"
Emperor Zhengqing personally helped Jia Qing up, and then he only talked about the friendship between the king and the ministers and came to the front.
"What else do you have to say?" Emperor Zhengqing said indifferently.
At the stairs, there is a eldest prince who is pressed tightly on the ground.
At this time, the eldest prince did not have a trace of his previous demeanor, and became like a beggar. He said in horror: "Father, you can't kill me, you can't kill me!
Now, I am the only prince you can inherit the throne!"
Emperor Zhengqing's heart, which had already calmed down, yelled: "What do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, Marquis." Liu Xianglian quickly walked over and saluted Emperor Zhengqing and Jia Qing, and said, "I met the second and fourth princes in the imperial city..."
As he said that, Liu Xianglian seemed to have no idea what to say, and waved to bring the person over.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."
The seven-year-old fourth prince was worried all day long. Now that he finally saw his father, he cried and wanted to break free from the arms of Jia Qing's personal soldiers. But he fell to the ground immediately.
The soldier immediately supported him.
Emperor Zhengqing did not care about the eldest prince at this time, so he went directly to the fourth prince and said, "Kai'er, what's wrong with you?"
Jia Qing's personal soldiers were a little nervous and trembled in front of the emperor, and said, "Fourth...the fourth prince, he was......"
His words were interrupted by Liu Xianglian's eyes, so he didn't dare to say them again.
At this time, Jia Qing also came over. With the firelight, he saw the fourth prince's lower body red. When he contacted the eldest prince's words just now, Jia Qing's pupils shrank.
I immediately turned to see the second prince Min Ning. He also had a pale face. He was just a person in his twenties. When he saw Jia Qing looking at him, he even covered him with his hands...
Jia Qing was angry: This beast is so vicious!
Without looking back, he also knew how terrifying and angry Emperor Zhengqing's current expression should be!
Emperor Zhengqing stared at his youngest son's bloody lower body, and then at the worry and fear in his eyes, Emperor Zhengqing felt a dizzy moment.
Liu Xianglian explained: "We were the second and fourth princes who were found outside Xi'an Gate. They were taken to the palace by people from the eldest prince's mansion. Several of them were caught by their subordinates, and the rest were killed."
The matter involves the dignity of the Tian family. Liu Xianglian dared not mention that the second prince and the fourth prince were castrated. But everyone present believed that they could see it.
He had no choice but to tell Emperor Zhengqing who did this.
"Father..."
What I heard was the call and cry of my youngest son, as if I wanted to ask myself to hug him and comfort him.
He may not even understand what he had lost.
"Puff~!"
The blood that had accumulated could not help but spewed out, and was consciously shifted by Emperor Zhengqing. It did not sprinkle on the Fourth Prince, but dyed a white stone staircase red.
"His Majesty!!"
Everyone exclaimed.
