Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2113
[Chapter 627 Dilemma]
Bi Linglong narrowed her eyes when she saw this, and she noticed a bunch of palace guards coming towards this direction.
“General Zhao, what do you mean?”
The leader on the opposite side is Zhao Si, who can be regarded as an elder of the royal family, but now that the other party suddenly appears in the queen’s palace with troops, it is really strange.
Zhao Si bowed and said, “I have seen the queen. Now someone has entered the palace to assassinate me. The general will lead the troops to protect the empress!”
Bi Linglong frowned slightly: “No, this palace is very safe. I don’t need your protection. On the contrary, the queen mother is here.” There seems to be an assassin attacking over there in the palace, please go over and provide support.”
Zhao Si, however, remained motionless: “The duty of the general is to protect the empress. As for the Queen Mother, there are others who are going to rescue her.”
Bi Linglong was silent for a few breaths. , suddenly asked: “In that case, why did you stop the guards sent by this palace to deliver the message?”
“I’m sorry, there is chaos in the palace now, and the situation is unclear. It seems that someone in the palace colluded with outsiders. In order to avoid chaos, the palace All generals are now strictly abiding by their respective posts and are strictly prohibited from moving around. Any violation will be punished as treason!” Zhao Si replied.
“Are you saying that my guards are likely to be co-conspirators with the assassins?” Bi Linglong sneered.
“The general doesn’t dare.” Although Zhao Si said he didn’t dare, his figure showed no signs of moving out of the way.
“In that case, I’ll go there in person. It’s impossible for me to collude with those assassins, right?” Bi Linglong stood up and walked out.
As a result, Zhao Si stretched out his hand to stop us: “My Majesty, please don’t make it difficult for us!”
“How dare you block your Majesty’s way!” The aggressive Rong Mo couldn’t hold back anymore and started to curse with his hands on his hips.
After hearing her words, the captains of the guards Pu Duandiao and Jiao Siguang from the Queen’s Palace also agreed. The other guards also drew their weapons and looked at each other with unkind expressions.
Although this Zhao Si is from the royal family, he is a queen on his side. Who is he, Zhao Si?
Zhao Si’s face changed slightly: “We are also acting under orders. If the queen insists on barging in, we will have to be rude.”
He waved his hand, and his men also aimed their weapons at everyone in the queen’s palace.
The scene became tense in an instant.
Bi Linglong glanced at the many soldiers and sneered: “I wonder whose orders you are taking? Do you want to rebel?”
As she spoke, she walked forward.
Since she became the Crown Princess, she has been handling almost everything in the East Palace. Now that she has become the Queen, her power is even greater than before.
She has long developed the majesty of a superior person, and she handles things vigorously and resolutely with clear rewards and punishments, so that many guards are in awe of her.
Now that they saw her walking towards him, the imperial soldiers under Zhao Si swallowed their saliva and kept moving back, for fear of hurting each other.
At this moment, a cold voice came from the side: “Of course it’s on the emperor’s order!”
I saw Li Guanshi leading a large group of Huben guards to come here. With their joining, Zhao Si’s men and horses suddenly became more powerful. Feeling confident, he stopped retreating and instead took a few steps forward.
The guards at the Queen’s Palace were already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, but now that the other party had added a new force, their momentum was suddenly reduced a lot.
“Your Majesty?” Bi Linglong’s expression changed. She had recognized Li Guanshi’s identity.
Of course she knew that Zhao Ruizhi would not give such an order, but he was too stupid and would inevitably be deceived by those around him.
“I don’t know what the order is?”
Li Guanshi raised his hand: “The Liu family colluded with the demon clan and intended to rebel and abolish the establishment. Now I am arresting these rebellious officials and traitors.”
In order to deceive the emperor into stamping the seal, they deliberately used Zu An To stimulate the opponent, but everyone knows very well that Zu An’s invincible image of killing the Earth Immortal and destroying the Meng family was too shocking. In addition, there are many forces in the capital that are friendly with Zu An, and they rashly say that he Conspiracy can easily arouse strong resistance.
Therefore, they planned to deal with the Liu family first, and then cut off Zu An’s power step by step after the overall situation was decided.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Queen’s Palace was in an uproar. They never expected to hear such news.
Bi Linglong’s expression changed even more. With her intelligence, she thought of many possibilities in an instant.
No wonder I always feel like there are some undercurrents surging in the capital recently. It turns out that this is the plot.
I think my father and brother were probably among them.
There is also King Wu, who is very ambitious and obviously stirs up troubles in it.
Although she had always been at odds with Liu Ning, she was not happy at all after learning all this.
Her father and brother knew that she would probably not agree to this matter, so they deliberately kept it from her.
They are simply confused. Have they forgotten the lessons learned from the Meng family?
How will it end when Zu An comes back in the future?
Suddenly, she thought about how her father seemed to have been involved in killing the princes and concubines of the previous dynasty. Was it because he was too involved and worried that Zu An would take revenge when he knew the truth in the future, so he acted first?
But what should I do?
With her father and brother on one side and her beloved lover on the other, she suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
“General Li is hiding so deeply.” Bi Linglong gritted her teeth. Li Guanshi was usually taciturn and loyal, but she never expected that he had become a pawn of a certain force. She didn’t know that he was from the Bi family. , or was bribed by King Wu.
“Your Majesty, thank you.” Li Guanshi looked calm and did not make any excuses.
At this moment, another pair of people rushed over.
When the Queen’s party saw this, their eyes suddenly lit up, because they recognized that this group of people was the Yulin Army.
The Yulin Army is the direct descendant of the Regent Zu An!
The first two generals were obviously Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang, the deputy generals of the Yulin Army.
“Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang meet the Queen!” The two of them saluted Bi Linglong as soon as they arrived, directly expressing their attitude. Their people vaguely surrounded Li Guanshi’s Tiger Army in the middle.
It turned out that when something strange happened in the palace, the two of them woke up immediately and immediately called their troops to assemble.
The two gathered together in private and quickly figured out the situation.
There seems to be something unexpected happening at Yunlongmen, and there are assassins at the Queen Mother’s palace. At the same time, the movements of the troops in the palace are extremely strange.
Originally, Wang Bolin subconsciously wanted to lead people to rescue the Queen Mother. After all, Zu An and the Queen Mother had always had a good relationship.
But he was stopped by Zhang Zijiang: “Brother Wang, don’t think about it, who dares to touch the Queen Mother in this capital?”
“You mean the Queen?” Wang Bolin also changed his face.
“Who else has the courage except the Queen and the Bi family?” Zhang Zijiang smiled bitterly.
Wang Bolin suddenly went crazy. Zu An and the Queen Mother were political allies, but they were also close to the Queen, and they were both from the East Palace lineage. Their relationship was even closer than that of the Queen Mother.
Who are they helping?
Zhang Zijiang had an idea: “The situation in the palace is unclear now. Why don’t we go to the queen’s palace to ask the queen for instructions and see what the situation is.”
Wang Bolin agreed with this judgment. The two of them quickly brought the Yulin army over, and they saw it from a distance. In addition, the army seems to be besieging the Queen’s palace. Is this a big deal?
So he immediately sent men and horses to surround the opponent in the center.
“You two, please get up quickly!” Bi Linglong was overjoyed when she saw the two of them. With their help, the situation in the palace is likely to be stabilized.
At this time, Li Guanshi shouted loudly: “Wang Bolin, Zhang Zijiang, do you want to rebel?”
Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang sneered: “Li Guanshi, if you lead people to besiege the Queen’s Palace, you are rebelling, right?”
Li Guanshi raised a gold medal: “I swear. The emperor ordered me to lead my troops to protect the empress. What a crime!”
Everyone in the Yulin Army changed their expressions when they saw the gold medal, because it was indeed the emperor’s personal token. Seeing this order was like seeing the emperor.
“Long live my emperor!” Everyone could only salute. Although they knew that the emperor was usually a fool and a puppet, these etiquettes could not be offended.
Li Guanshi then said: “Wang Bolin, Zhang Zijiang, you lead your troops to strictly guard your posts. No one is allowed to move without the emperor’s order, otherwise you will be punished for treason.”
Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang’s expressions changed. They would not let them go anywhere at this critical moment. Go, isn’t it the Queen Mother’s side…
They looked at Bi Linglong hurriedly for help, hoping that the other party would give instructions.
Bi Linglong’s face turned green and red. She knew that today’s incident was probably planned by her father. Did she really want to destroy his plan?
But if they were allowed to act so randomly, Azu would be offended, and the consequences would be even more disastrous.
Why is my father so confused? Has he forgotten how the Meng family and Dai Wang ended?
But my father has always been the kind of person who makes decisions before acting. He must have taken Azu’s strength into consideration.
Is it possible that he has nothing else to rely on? But looking at the world, there are almost no people who can be called Azu’s rivals.
Her expression changed from gloomy to bright, but thinking about what she had done with Zu An in the past few days and the oath she had made at that time, she had already made a decision in her heart. She took a deep breath and shouted in a cold voice: “The Yulin Army obeys the order!”
Wang Bolin Zhang Zijiang and Zhang Zijiang’s hearts skipped a beat, and they all stood solemnly and responded: “I obey the imperial decree!”
The situation in the palace was so chaotic now that they couldn’t tell what the problem was, but they kept one thing in mind, that is, they were the regent’s soldiers and could only Listen to the orders of those close to the regent.
In the eyes of everyone, the Queen has the closest relationship with the Regent in the entire palace, followed by the Queen Mother. If you follow the Queen now, you will definitely not go wrong.
Li Guanshi’s expression changed: “Empress, what are you doing?”
Bi Linglong ignored him and said directly to Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang: “Escort me to see the emperor. I suspect that the emperor has been deceived by an adulterer and is in danger now.
” That was her brilliance. She did not directly say to save the Queen Mother, but went to see the Emperor.
Everyone in the capital knew that she and the emperor were bound by honor and disgrace. She had been in charge of the East Palace for so many years, so she was the spokesperson of Zhao Ruizhi in the eyes of the world.
Now that she goes to see the emperor, it is a matter of course, and no one will doubt that she has any evil intentions.
And as long as she sees Zhao Ruizhi, she can completely control him. The two of them give orders at the same time. Unless these forbidden troops in the palace really want to rebel, who would dare to disobey?
Sure enough, after hearing her words, Li Guanshi’s expression changed, and the Huben guards under his command also looked at each other.
In fact, except for a few of his cronies, most of the soldiers also didn’t know what happened today.
Everyone just obeyed the general’s orders habitually. Before, they had the emperor’s orders as their status, and they could obey orders. How could they stop the queen now?
However, the morale of the Yulin Army was high and they shouted loudly: “Yes!”
Feeling that the morale of those under his command was weakening, Li Guanshi hurriedly said: “Your Majesty, the Emperor’s order is for you to stay in the palace. We will protect your safety. , I hope your Majesty will not put yourself in danger.”
Bi Linglong sneered and walked forward: “What, do I need your approval if I want to see the Emperor? You have been pushing back and forth to prevent me from seeing the Emperor. Have you done something to the Emperor? ?”
She was extremely majestic when she was the crown princess, let alone now that she is the mother of a country.
In addition, many people in the Huben army also had doubts, so she walked straight forward, and no one dared to stop her.
Li Guanshi’s expression changed several times. He put his hand on the knife several times, but never dared to pull it out.
He knew that the Yulin Army was watching from behind, and the morale of his own army was now shaken. Even if he reluctantly ordered an action to stop them, they would definitely be defeated in a melee.
But if the empress was really allowed to see the emperor, and that stupid fat man had no authority at all, he would be dead if he said what he said.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and drew his sword directly, holding the emperor’s gold medal in his other hand: “All officers and soldiers obey the order. The generals bear the emperor’s orders. Anyone who disobeys will be regarded as treason!”
Bi There was no fear on Linglong’s face: “Now the emperor’s life or death is unknown. Li Guanshi falsely conveyed the emperor’s orders, and the soldiers captured him.”
After hearing her words, her subordinates Jiao Sigu and Pu Duandiao shouted, and in the Queen’s Palace, The guards were preparing to take action.
Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang were even more prepared and shouted: “Everything follows the Queen’s orders!”
All the Yulin troops prepared their attacks.
On the contrary, many people on the Huben Army side had different opinions. Except for some of Li Guanshi’s direct descendants who immediately drew their swords to cooperate with Li Guanshi, nearly half of the remaining people were at a loss.
Just when the two sides were about to fight, a lazy voice suddenly came: “What are you doing here? Why is it so lively?”
Everyone looked back and saw a man in rich clothes walking over with a group of soldiers.
Seeing the other party’s appearance clearly, Bi Linglong’s expression changed, and it turned out that the other party was her brother Bi Zi’ang.
Pu Duandiao couldn’t help but be overjoyed: “Now, brother Queen is here, and we are sure to win.”
Jiao Siguang chuckled and said: “No, no, that’s not necessarily true.”
On the other side, Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang looked at each other and said secretly:
“It seems that the Bi family has indeed launched a coup and is targeting the Queen Mother’s Liu family.”
“I just don’t know why the Queen seems to be unaware of it and is in a different camp from them. ”
Both of them are palace generals, so they still have some sensitivity. As a foreign minister, Bi Ziang’s ability to lead troops into the palace in the middle of the night already shows a lot of problems.
At this time, Li Guanshi took the opportunity to say: “Young Master Bi came just in time. We have the emperor’s orders to come here to protect the safety of the queen, but the queen has to break out of the door. It is very dangerous outside.”
“Who knows what the emperor’s situation is now? Are you falsely passing on the imperial edict?” Bi Linglong still made her last effort. Although she was talking about Li Guanshi, her eyes were fixed on Bi Ziang, hoping to learn from his Judg something in attitude.
At this time, Bi Ziang laughed and said: “Sister, you are worried too much. I just came from the emperor, and he did send General Li to protect you. I also ask my sister to be considerate of the emperor’s painstaking efforts and not to put yourself in danger.”
Listen . Upon hearing his answer, Bi Linglong’s heart sank to the bottom. It seemed that her father and brother were indeed planning this time.
What can she do now? Should she continue to insist on the rhetoric just now? But now that her brother has testified for Li Guanshi, if she says that again, isn’t she saying that her father and brother are treason?
Even if this incident is resolved, the entire Bi family will face disaster.
Especially since her brother was hinting to her both inside and outside of his words just now. Instead of making her sympathize with the emperor’s painstaking efforts, he clearly wanted her to sympathize with her father and his painstaking efforts.
“Now the update will be announced on the public account, and we will try to save some manuscripts later. Once it is stable, it will be updated at a fixed time around 12 noon every day, so that readers will not need to refresh frequently. At the same time, everyone can open it during their lunch break at work. In addition, readers have reminded me that there is a slight bug in the previous plot. The jade coffin containing Jingteng and Qiuhonglei (see, I just mentioned a bug, but my hand slipped and wrote it as jade smoke…) is placed in Jingteng’s necklace. Instead of being inside the glazed orb, her necklace is similar to a portable blessed land. Hey, after writing a long story, normally I will record most of what I have written before, but sometimes I forget to write down some content in my notes. It’s prone to bugs, so please forgive me.”
