After the immortal disappeared

The black ladybug following Zhao Song also flew over, wanting to see what was going on in the thick fog. But just as it got closer, something flashed in the white mist and actually pulled it in!

Not a single little ladybug was spared.

Soon, Yuquan Palace returned to peace.

Bai Hengbo was dead. Zhao Song chopped off his head with a knife. Unable to suppress his curiosity, Zhao Song went to the back of the palace to take a look.

It seems like...the enemies were just dragged behind the palace?

However, the back of the hall was empty. Except for a few peeling walls and plaster on the ground, and some debris frozen in the cracks of the ground, there was nothing here.

Zhao Song scratched his head, but did not dare to think too much. He led the three hundred palace guards and whispered to the remaining people: "You guys go back the way you came to protect the king's safety!"

King Yao had previously stated that the battlefield for the attack on Bai Hengbo must be in Yuquan Palace, so there would be no mistakes.

So, the king knows exactly what will happen here?

The situation was tense, and Zhao Song had no time to think too much. He rushed to the Frost Immortal Palace with his men, and the other palace guards also quietly escaped back.

Although they all go back there, their methods are different. The so-called "original road" is authentic!

Yes, to be honest, it's not worth it. There is a secret passage in the Shuangxian rear hall leading directly to Yuquan Palace.

When the Frost Immortal Palace was renovated back then, this kind of skill was retained.

But before tonight, there were no more than three people in the world who knew about the existence of this secret passage.

Even Qiu Long, the old palace man next to King Yao, was not among them.

At the critical moment, King Yao no longer cared about keeping secrets. He not only sent Zhao Song's three hundred palace guards to go through the tunnel, but also allocated more than a hundred people from his own guards to sneak into Yuquan Palace to ambush in advance, in order to deal with Bai Hengbo with certainty. !

This person holds an important position and is very important to Qingyang's actions. King Yao will first cut off Qingyang's arm, and at the same time defeat the strongest threat around him.

As soon as Bai Hengbo died, King Yao felt that most of the pain from being stuck in his neck had dissipated, and he could breathe a sigh of relief.

This was the opportunity He Xiao's whistleblowing gave him!

The first threat has been eliminated, and the next step is to look at the south gate of the palace city, because Zheng Da, who has regained the power of the Imperial Guard, Supervisor and Secretary, will immediately take over a more important task——

Replace the south gate palace guard!

…

Soldiers are valuable and quick.

Bai Tan led the reorganized army and immediately rushed to the south gate of the palace.

Yao Palace is located in the center of the north of the city. The lower key of the palace gate is closed after sunset every day and will not be opened until the rooster crows the next day.

The royal palace is a city within a city. Its walls are only slightly thicker than the Tianshui city walls and contain various fortifications. As the last barrier guarding the royal family, it also enjoys the blessing of many large formations. With the men and horses Bai Tan has in hand, it is absolutely impossible to win it in a short time.

Carrying out an operation in Tianshui City in secret, they lacked suitable siege equipment; besides, the defense of Yao Palace's city wall was astonishing and had never been breached in the past two hundred years.

Once King Yao guards the palace gate, Bai Tan may not be able to break in even if he besieges it for more than ten days.

At that time, soldiers and horses from all over Yao Kingdom came to King Qin.

But as the old saying goes, the strongest palace doors always open from within.

Bai Tan's uncle and nephew had already prepared for it. Xu Yankun, the city gate captain who was on duty at the south gate of the palace today, used to be Bai Tan's general, but now he is Bai Hengbo's confidant.

"Faster, faster, faster!"

Bai Tan issued several orders in succession, urging the army to go north.

General Bai's temper was known to everyone. The generals did not dare to object and led the troops to run very fast.

Then, they rushed under the south gate of Miyagi City.

"Stop, stop!"

"How dare you break into the forbidden area of ​​the palace! If you come any closer, a thousand arrows will pierce your heart!"

There was a crowd of people above the palace wall, and warnings were heard.

Bai Tan held up his official badge and shouted loudly: "I am Bai Tan, and I have been ordered to enter the palace to exterminate the traitors and protect our king. Xu Yankun - open the door quickly and let him go!"

No one answered at the city gate, and Bai Tan's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be?

The city gate guards were divided, and a new person appeared, looking down at him.

Bai Tan's heart suddenly sank:

The fluorescent spores on the palace wall were very bright, illuminating the man clearly.

This is another court captain and supervisor in the palace, Zheng Da!

Xu Yankun, who was supposed to guard the palace gate and open the door for Bai Tan, disappeared and was replaced by Zheng Da.

"Trouble," Bai Tan clenched his fists.

Zheng Daran smiled and said: "Operating? Whose order are you pretending to take?"

He threw down a head: "Your lackey Xu Yankun has been beheaded by me!"

In the firelight, the face of the human head was grinning. It was indeed Xu Yankun himself.

Zheng Da held up the handwriting of King Yao and shouted loudly: "My king's handwriting tells that Bai Tan and Bai Hengbo have conspired to rebel and rebel..."

Before he finished speaking, a dozen arrows were shot from below, and he quickly dodged.

The palace city was lit up with torches. Bai Tan took advantage of his interruption and shouted: "Zheng Da, you are colluding with the rebels. You failed to murder the fourth prince before, and now you forged an order to kill Xu Yankun and hindered me, King Qin. Your crime is Be punished!"

He slashed forward with his long sword and gave the order with great strength: "Attack the city! Knock down this gnawing thing!"

Zheng Da must not be allowed to confuse the military morale again.

Both of them spoke righteously and pointedly at each other as rebels. Both held tokens in their hands. The troops in the city listened to this and then to the other. They were all a little confused for a moment, not knowing who to listen to.

None of them sound guilty.

But compared with reputation, status, and even character, everyone knows that General Bai Canfang is a complete royalist and die-hard loyalist, and he is deeply trusted by the king.

This image remains the same and has never changed.

Looking at Zheng Da again, he should also be loyal, otherwise he would not have served in the palace for many years. The safety of the palace is the top priority. But Lord Zheng was involved in the poisoning case of the fourth prince not long ago, exposing his shortcomings of abusing power for personal gain and nepotism.

Some things are seen through but not spoken. Once they are put on the table, it will be ugly.

Without giving everyone time to think deeply, Bai Tan shouted at the right time: "Go! Enter the palace, kill the villain, and save the king!"

The slogan must be concise and catchy to arouse the majority. So their men also shouted together, and the sound was overwhelming.

Then, the army began to bang on the door.

There were only a few people standing in the palace gate tower, how could they compete with those below who had a louder voice?

The guards on the gate tower were also hesitant in shooting arrows. On the one hand, General Bai did not look like a traitor. On the other hand, the front line of the siege were all palace guards. They were familiar faces with the guards on the gate. Some of them were patrolling and eating together yesterday.

How could he do this?

Seeing that Bai Tan was still popular with the people, Zheng Da was furious and shouted with all his strength: "The king has issued an edict to remove Bai Tan's official salary and fame, and to label him as the culprit of the rebellion. Those who are in collusion with him will be treated as accomplices!"
