Chapter 2842 This battle is not over
"Prepare for war?"
Wang Guangming was stunned: "General, what do you mean"
Luo Qitong looked at the smoke and dust flying ahead, almost covering most of the sky, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, and he said deeply: "What I mean is that this battle has not been completed yet!"
“…!”
It was already evening when Luo Qitong rushed back to the palace with a quick horse.
Along the way, there was no one on the street, which was quieter than during the curfew on weekdays. Even if the country's army had retreated, the people were still like frightened birds and dared not act rashly.
In this way, he can return to the palace smoothly.
But as soon as he walked to the Nangong Gate, he was also shocked.
The Nangong Gate was completely collapsed.
A group of small eunuchs carried and pried them together, and finally lifted the huge door panel on the ground. When they saw the situation below, several people immediately closed their eyes in fear.
Luo Qitong walked over, and everyone didn't dare to let go, so they could only forcefully nod.
"General."
At this time, Luo Qitong naturally didn't care about them. When he looked down, he saw that the corpses below had been smashed beyond recognition and his head was blooming.
Luo Qitong was used to the casualties on the battlefield, but when he saw this corpse, he couldn't help but frown.
At this time, a small eunuch came over and said, "The Imperial Concubine passed a message. The bodies of these people were chopped up and fed to the dogs, and their families were not allowed to be collected. Whoever dared to clean up these people would be regarded as a deceiving the emperor and would definitely be killed."
Everyone around them stuck out their tongues.
Looking at the clothes of these corpses, they should be the personal soldiers and eunuchs of the guard gate. But when he heard the imperial concubine dealing with this, Luo Qitong immediately understood that it must be the responsibility of these people to be captured by the Nangong Gate.
Sure enough, the eunuchs around them all said, "Everyone, keep some gods."
"Yes, whoever dares to neglect his duties will not let you go easily."
"I said, why is this empress more cruel than the emperor in doing things?"
"Shh, you're desperate!"
Luo Qitong walked in without looking back.
When he walked to the square in front of the hall, the situation here shocked him.
In the huge square, dozens of eunuchs were cleaning, and you could still see a few bodies piled up in the corner that had not been moved away. The ground made of white marble bricks could no longer see its original color.
Blood dyed the entire square red.
In addition, the little eunuchs brought the bucket to rinse. The water accumulated on the ground. When people stepped on it, they could hear a strange, even disgusting sound. The strong smell of blood dissipated in the air made people feel like they were in a sea of blood.
Luo Qitong stood in the middle of the square, looking at the broken arrow feathers floating on the blood, and seemed to be able to guess what was happening here.
He sighed.
At this time, someone around him sighed and turned around and saw that it was Ying Shao.
The two of them came back and saw this scene and seemed to be very moved.
Luo Qitong bowed to him: "Master Ying."
Yingshao also bowed and said in a deep voice: "Maybe, I should come back."
Luo Qitong heard this and did not speak.
At this time, a person's voice came from beside him.
"Are the two adults returning to the palace to report their work?"
Looking back, his face and body were covered with blood. It was obvious that the eunuch Xiao Shunzi, who had been busy all day and had not had time to clean them up, bowed to them.
The two of them bowed to him too.
"Old-in-law Shun, let's come back and apologize to the Imperial Concubine and His Highness the King of Wei."
Xiao Shunzi said, "The Empress is sitting up at Wuying Hall to do business. Let's come with our family."
"Please lead the way."
The two of them followed Xiao Shunzi all the way and could see the bloody and cruel scene after the war. After a while, they arrived at Wuying Hall. As soon as they reached the door, they saw Gu Tingqiu and Si Muyun retreating from inside.
They didn't see their usual gracefulness and elegance.
Both of them were covered with blood and their temples were messy, which obviously had been tossed.
On both sides, Gu Tingqiu bowed to them politely and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Luo and Ying also exchanged a few greetings. Although after the war, everyone had too many emotions to vent, the most important thing now is to meet the imperial concubine and the King of Wei, so they didn't say much. The uncle and nephew naturally left the palace and went home, and both of them took a deep breath at the same time.
Then, he walked into Wuying Hall.
There were many tables and chairs in the hall, and now they were moved to the corner, leaving only a set of tables and chairs in the center. Nan Yan sat behind the chair, with He Yi standing beside him, obviously discussing matters.
Seeing them walking in, they stopped immediately.
"You're back."
The two of them stepped forward a few steps, kowtowed to the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly: "I pay homage to the Imperial Concubine. Impressed me for the death sentence. Please ask the Imperial Concubine to kill me!"
“…”
Hearing this, Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.
But there was no slight anger.
Instead, he turned his head back and looked at Heyi. The two of them looked at each other, and there seemed to be a little smile in their eyes.
The look seemed to be saying: Sure enough.
Then, Nan Yan said, "What are the crimes of the two beloved ministers? Why do we have to kill two of them?"
Luo Qitong knelt down and Ying Shao even kowtowed and made the stone slab under him pound, saying, "As the commander of the imperial camp, Weichen cannot protect the emperor and the empress carefully, which caused the rioters to enter the palace, shocked the emperor's leadership, and even disturbed the empress and all the princes and princesses. Weichen was guilty of death! Death crime!"
Nanyan did not answer him immediately.
She blinked and asked, "Did Lord Ying hear something happening in the palace when he was reinforced by the nine outer gates?"
Yingshao said softly: "…yes"
Nan Yan said: "So at that time, you already knew that the palace might be captured by the rioters?"
"……yes."
"Well, what's your choice?"
“…”
Ying Shao's cold sweat was over. He gritted his teeth and lowered his head and said, "Wei Chen, I chose to stay at the city gate to resist the country's army, and ignore the safety of the palace. I will never be cherished if I die!"
At this time, Luo Qitong also began to kowtow.
Lianlian said: "Empress, it is the empress who is dereliction of duty. The protection of the nine gates is not good. Lord Ying did not return to the palace to save the emperor in time for the safety of the city gate. Please ask the empress to punish Weichen for his crime!"
Seeing the two of them kowtow and robbing the charges, Nan Yan raised her hand to cover her mouth and coughed gently.
She suddenly thought, if it were Zhu Feng, what would happen at this time?
He will definitely hold back his laughter.
Maybe, they will even be furious and scare these two people.
Although I can hold back my laughter, I can't look furious when I see them like this.
So he said, "Two dear ministers, are you going to let me punish you for your sins? Do you want me to be injustice?"
“…?”
Chapter completed!
