On that night, Li Xin didn't take a break for a quarter of an hour. He first went to the Duke of Chen's mansion and found the General Ye Lin of the Central Army.

After roughly speaking, Ye Lin's face changed drastically. He immediately took Li Xin to meet his husband Ye Sheng, and he did not hesitate to wake the 70-year-old man from his sleep.

The thin Duke Ye walked out in a single dress. He just glanced at Li Xin lightly and asked, "Is the King of Wei going to retaliate?"

This is the only thing worth waking him, the man who is so late.

Li Xin hugged Ye Sheng and lowered his head and said, "Honey, Your Highness, King Wei, has made up his mind to take action tomorrow night."

“Tomorrow night…”

Ye Sheng frowned slightly: "I heard that you were scheduled around the New Year, why did you suddenly get so long in advance?"

Li Xin gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty is probably..."

Duke Ye nodded immediately and said lightly: "That's not surprising. Only when a trouble arises in the palace will you have a greater chance."

The old duke with white hair turned his head and looked at Ye Lin, and said in a deep voice: "Ye Lin obeys the order."

The Ye family ruled the family by the army, and the children in the family regarded Ye Sheng as the main general. Even the young Duke Ye Mao made mistakes on weekdays and served them with military sticks. At this time, the Duke Ye began to issue orders.

Ye Lin half-kneeled respectfully.

"Ye Lin is here."

"The Ye family has more than 1,300 troops, and they are all left to you to help His Highness the King of Wei succeed. Just remember one thing: when doing things, don't talk about success or failure in your heart, just move forward with all your heart."

When Ye Sheng entered the capital of Northern Zhou, he had never thought about the outcome, success or failure, but he just spelled it and rushed in with one breath.

Without this spirit, it would be impossible to make this achievement in the beginning.

Ye Lin bowed respectfully: "Ye Lin got the order."

After saying that, he stood up from the ground, turned his head to his father and clasped his fists and said, "Father, the soldiers and armor in the family are not complete..."

In this era, the weapons of the people were strictly controlled. Swords were low in lethality and were allowed to be worn by scholars. However, swords, long-handled weapons, bows and crossbows, and armor must be registered by the government, otherwise they would be privately stored weapons.

Although the Duke Chen Mansion is a top general, it only has 300 sets of armor. Jingzhao Mansion does not allow the Ye family to have more weapons and armor.

The old Duke looked indifferent and went back to his room and found a rusty key and threw it into Ye Lin's hand.

"There is a private warehouse in the backyard, which contains a thousand sets of armor and weapons."

Speaking of this, Duke Ye smiled: "When I came back from the north, I was worried that the late emperor might kill me, so I prepared these things at home. There was still some room for struggle when things were about to come. I never thought that these things would not come in handy thirty years ago, but would be useful thirty years later."

Whether or not there is armor on the battlefield is a world of difference.

In the era of cold weapons, before the battle, a volley was often taken first. These arrows would not have too much lethality when flying for a distance. They could be blocked with armor, but if there were no armor, they would be cut down like straw.

At this time, Li Xin was convinced by the thin old man. He bowed to Ye Sheng and said, "Honey, tomorrow afternoon, the Yulin Guard will break into pieces and enter Yonglefang. At the end of the evening, we will start to take action."

"At that time, Yong'anmen was the leader of the Yulin Guard. We could go straight to the outer city of the imperial city. As long as we entered the inner city, the matter would be done!"

Ye Sheng waved his hand lazily.

"The old man is already in his seventies and can't live for a few years. How to do it and how to do it is all about you young people. Let's go and stop bothering me."

As he said that, the old man carried his hands on his back and went back to his yard to take care of the flowers and plants.

Li Xin turned to look at Ye Lin.

Ye Lin was silent for a while, and finally said, "I'll go to the Wei Palace to meet His Highness the King of Wei now."

Li Xin nodded.

"I'm going to go to Yulinwei Camp and start counting the roster."

It was almost midnight now, and the two of them were in the night again.

On this extremely quiet night, most people in the capital fell asleep, but there were still many people running in the dark, making this quiet city seem murderous.

…………………………………

the next day.

On the 11th day of the 18th year of Chengde, the emperor finally couldn't hold on.

In the afternoon, he fell on the bed. The imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital were unable to treat them and knelt at the gate of Changle Palace in fear.

His Highness the Crown Prince was furious and ordered all these quack doctors to be killed.

It was Chen Ju who persuaded the prince to stop him, saying that His Majesty had already told him that he should not make things difficult for these imperial physicians.

As the evening approached, Emperor Chengde, who had been in power for 19 years, finally arrived at his dying moment.

Chen Ju knelt on the side of the emperor's bed, looked at the prince who was guarding beside him, and said in tears: "Your Highness, call a few princes into the palace and send him one to His Majesty..."

The prince also burst into tears and choked and said, "Come on, I'll tell you that several princes have entered the palace."

Several young eunuchs immediately ran down to pass the order.

The youngest tenth prince and the eleventh prince were not sixteen years old and still lived in the palace. The two of them arrived first and knelt in front of the emperor's bed and sneered on the ground and cried.

The other princes all lived in Yonglefang, and several eunuchs soon arrived at their mansion and conveyed the prince's edict.

King Zhao Ji Chong had already extinguished the idea of ​​competing for the crown prince at this time. After hearing the news, his eyes were slightly red, he staggered to the backyard, and rode his horse towards the direction of the palace.

After receiving the news, Ji Huan, the King of Qi, had no expression on his face.

"You guys go back first, I will enter the palace immediately."

After he changed into formal clothes, he dared to go towards the palace.

At this time, he also knew in his heart that his chance of fighting for the throne was very small, and he offended the crown prince. By the day when the crown prince ascended the throne, it was the time for him to be in trouble, so he was quite depressed.

When the eunuch arrived at the Wei Palace, His Highness, the body of the King of Wei, trembled and waved, "I understand, I will enter the palace now."

He turned around and went back to his study room. In the study room, Li Xin, Hou Jingde and Ye Lin were all there.

His Highness the King of Wei's voice was hoarse.

"Everyone, the father is on his dying day."

The three people in the room sighed slowly.

The Holy Emperor is a benevolent monarch who is very popular. At this time, the Holy Emperor is about to collapse, and they feel a little uncomfortable.

Li Xin looked up at the sky outside the window and said in his heart that it was a pity.

"It's not night now, otherwise our people would be watching, and those princes would die under Yong'an Gate."

In fact, the prince is in the inner palace, and it doesn’t matter whether the other two princes die. The key is to see how to enter the inner palace.

His Highness the King of Wei took a deep breath, his voice hoarse: "Everyone, I'm going to the palace now. The plan will be as usual tonight, and I will start to do it at the Xu hour!"

Li Xin took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, I'll go into the palace with you?"

His Highness the King of Wei hesitated for a while, then looked at Ye Lin and Hou Jingde, and finally shook his head slowly.

"There is also a matter of things outside that must be coordinated by Brother Xin, so Brother Xin will stay outside the palace."

Li Xin nodded and reminded: "Your Highness remembers the time. After the Xu hour, he will find a way to hide. Don't be caught by the prince, otherwise we will be able to get things done and we will be able to get water from the bamboo basket."

The King of Wei nodded slowly.
