Outside the palace, densely packed imperial guards came from all directions, with swords drawn out of sheath and arrows rolling on the strings, eyeing them to the surrounds of several gates of the palace. The Yulin Guards who were guarding the gates of the palace also all huddled into the palace. Some were excited and some were frightened, and they were trembling and didn't know what would happen next.

Not far from the East Gate, hundreds of burly guards in leather armor held torches to guard a group of figures in brocade robes and uniforms.

Prince Hu Hai, Marquis of Jiancheng Zhao Hai, Marquis of Changwu Zhao Cheng, Marquis of Gaoyang Zhao Bing, Five Doctors Zhao Ying, Clerk Zhang Liang, Lieutenant's Mansion Commander Lu Xiao, Marquis of Wucheng Wang Li, and Bai Zhen, the commander of the Imperial Army of the Weiwei.

"What's the situation? Have you invited all the people you should invite?" Zhao Hai turned around and asked Lu Xiao.

"Only Meng Yi and the Marquis of Qinghe have not arrived, and the rest have arrived!" Lu Xiao bowed with a calm expression.

"Meng Yi is not worth worrying. I have asked Sima Xin to surround him. As long as he doesn't leave, he will have to surrender when our things are done. As for the Marquis of Qinghe, I'm afraid he won't be able to enter tonight!" Zhao Hai said proudly.

"No need to go to the end, the fourth and fifth brothers quickly took Haier to the palace to display the edict, and then arranged for the funeral for Your Majesty. As long as we are recognized by the royal family and court officials, we can rest assured!" Zhao Bing, who was old and erect, spoke.

"Yes, then I'll ask my second brother to take charge outside the palace for a while, Lieutenant Lu will assist in the handling, and we will enter the palace!"

Zhao Hai waved his hand, and a group of people swung into the palace under the escort of warriors, and then headed straight for Zichen Palace.

...

The north gate of Xianyang City.

Under the escort of a group of guards, Chen Xu stood a mile away from the city, and behind him were two densely packed armies.

The teenagers of a thousand Marine Corps were all carrying rifles and lined up into a huge square formation. Everyone's faces were tense and serious. Apart from the crackling sound of torches burning, there was almost no movement.

There was also a group of people who were not so quiet. Meng Yungao and the third brother of the third brother of Meng Yungao each brought about fifty gliders and were also divided into teams, but the team was not talking about it. Some people were playing, some were humming songs, some were talking and laughing about the little ladies of Xianyang City, and some were sleeping in a daze to ask what they were doing in Xianyang City in the middle of the night.

"Whoever speaks and pulls it out and cuts it!"

Chen Xu couldn't help it, and turned around and said coldly. In an instant, the entire team became quiet. A group of playboys including Meng Yungao and the third brother of the third party were all shivering.

"Go and call the city gate!" Chen Xu ordered the guard leader beside him.

"Yes, Marquis!" The guard leader clamped his legs and kicked and stepped straight to the city gate with a torch in his hand. Someone in the city immediately shouted, "Who is under the city?"

"Listen, the Grand Master is going to enter the city, quickly open the city gate, here is the token!" The guard leader raised his hand, and a bronze token flew in the air dozens of feet away and landed on the city tower.

"It's indeed the token of the Grand Master's Mansion, open the door quickly!"

"No, the commander has an order, no one is allowed to open the city gate!"

"But there is the Grand Master under the city!"

"The Grand Master is not good either. It's so dark and some people might pretend to be!"

"You dare to stop me, Master, be careful of Your Majesty tomorrow..."

"Hmph, what about your Majesty? Your Majesty has already buried you. Tomorrow will be another new emperor..."

After a murmur on the top of the city, he threw the token down with a clang, and then a cold sentence came: "Whether it is the Grand Commander or not, today the commander has an order, and the whole city is martial law, and no one can enter the city in the middle of the night!"

When the guard leader came back to report, Chen Xu couldn't help but frown.

Before leaving, he had a brief communication with Lu Xiao, asking him to control the North Gate once he had something to do, but now the North Gate is obviously not controlled by Lu Xiao, and the situation is urgent. Now he wants to go to another city gate to test it.

There are only two possible situations. One is that Zhao Hai does not trust Lu Xiao and has other arrangements in secret, while the other is that Lu Xiao completely betrayed.

The possibility of the second situation is relatively small, and Chen Xu is more inclined to say that the royal family such as Zhao Hai have a greater influence in the imperial guards.

As Meng Yi said, although Lu Xiao was nominally the commander of the Central Guard Imperial Guard, in fact, the four battalions of the Imperial Guards had their own commanders. Without the emperor's orders, he could not mobilize the Imperial Guards on a large scale and could only maintain daily patrol and security tasks, which was about one-third of the Imperial Guards.

If the entire battalion is transferred on weekdays, it will take military talismans and general orders to work together, such as the emperor's patrol and the road will be opened.

Even for urgent military information, Lu Xiao still had to ask the First Emperor for instructions before he could dispatch troops. When dispatching troops, all the officers still needed to check the warrants before they could take action.

Of course, this is all about normal mobilization, but if it is abnormal, the situation will be complicated. Especially among the imperial guards, the royal relatives and the Qing Hou Xungui family occupy a large number of officer indicators. If the number of people is enough to collude, a considerable force can still be formed.

"Son-in-law, what should I do? Will my father be arrested by Zhao Hai after entering the palace?" Meng Yun's nervous face turned pale.

"According to your father...well, my father-in-law's urination should not go to the palace, but Zhao Hai would not let him go easily. There seemed to be a shout for killing in the city, which means that Zhao Hai should have taken action. Now we want to enter the city as soon as possible, so we can only see you!" Chen Xu turned to look at Meng Yun.

"Fly...fly in?" Meng Yun stuttered a little.

"Yes, it takes a thousand days to raise troops and use troops for a while. I asked your father to spend millions of money to build so many gliders. He trained for more than a year to prepare for this situation. But now it really happened. Hurry up and arrange people to fly to the city, occupy the city tower and open the city gate!"

"But, this dark flew in and couldn't see it. What should I do if I fell on the roof?" Looking at the black wall, a group of dandy beside me were gasping for a little tooth pain.

"Hmph, don't you hurry up now, I'm afraid that your father will be cut by Zhao Hai to 70 or 80 yuan for feeding dogs. If you want to survive, you can only surrender to Hu Hai to usurp the throne. When tomorrow dawn, you will become a nest of thieves. I will chop you one by one to feed dogs first!" Chen Xu's eyes shone with a bright cold light under the reflection of the torch.

A group of playboys instantly went from chrysanthemums to the soles of their feet, and their fists were clenched with twisted faces, understanding that what Chen Xu was saying right now was the truth.

The situation is very clear at the moment. When the First Emperor died, no one left the city to inform Chen Xu. Chen Xu was the Grand Tutor and refused to enter the city. Moreover, the sound of sirens and faint shouts of killing in the city indicate that things are moving in the direction Chen Xu said.

Their group of playboy fathers are either senior officials of the three provinces and six ministries or nobles. If the First Emperor dies, their fathers will inevitably be summoned to the palace to discuss the arrangements for the First Emperor's funeral. Once they enter the palace, they will basically become fish on the chopping board and there is no more chance of resistance.

Or he followed Zhao Hai and became accomplice of Hu Hai's ascendance to the throne.

Either he became a loyal minister and then was chopped and fed to the dog by Zhao Hai.

There is no third option here.

Of course there is another type, that is, to know this in advance, then prepare well, and resist at home like Meng Yi.

"Let's go, prepare to enter the city!" Meng Yun gritted his teeth and waved his hand, and the group of playboys turned around gritting their teeth.

Soon, the gliders were placed next to each other on the concrete road, and two hundred were discharged nearly a mile long. The night wind was howling and the cold was so cold that there was no light. Only a gray road shadow could be seen vaguely. All the soldiers training the gliders were sweating nervously.

Now everyone is gradually clear that the First Emperor has collapsed, and some people are trying to rebel against the throne. The Qinghe Marquis is going to enter the city to quell the rebellion. Their purpose is to fly into the city to occupy the city tower and then open the city gate.

"Remember, fly to the city tower, then unplug the insurance of these Taiyi divine thunders and throw it away. You must throw it in the place where there are the most crowded people. After entering the city, you can land nearby to grab the city tower and open the city gate as soon as possible. Remember, there are only more than ten new Taiyi divine thunders, and it must work. The more than ten in the front must be the best-in-class skilled..."

Chen Xu gave a close reminder that Meng Yun and others also selected ten best gliders to drive, and then several dandy players including Meng Yun also took the lead, each bringing a new grenade to prepare for the glider.

"Remember, you must succeed!" Chen Xu patted Meng Yun on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law!" Meng Yun nodded and drilled into the abdomen of the glider, then grabbed the crossbar and pushed the glider to slide forward along the path of lightning with a few torches. The wind was high in autumn and it was facing the northwest direction. Soon, accompanied by a whirring sound, the glider slowly rose from the ground and staggered into the darkness.

"out"

With another command, the second glider followed the start and ran forward in the wind, and soon slowly flew off the ground in the darkness.

More than ten minutes later, accompanied by a black shadow passing by the city tower, and then a loud bang, a bright fire suddenly rose into the sky in the dark night, and just exploded in the place where the torches were most concentrated. The splashing sparks and wood and stones splashed on all sides. Thrilling screams and wails sounded on the city tower instantly, and the entire city gate was suddenly in chaos.

"Enemy attack"

Amid the terrified calls and sirens, a huge black shadow suddenly passed by more than a foot above the city wall. Amid the terrified screams of countless people, a grenade fell and exploded again in the panicked crowd.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom~"
