Chapter 158 Taiping Villa

Looking at the queen's body on the ground and the flesh and blood, everyone was so shocked that they could not speak. Ye Chong whispered a few words, turned his horse's head, and began to chase the city gate. On the one hand, the Qin family's vitality is still very powerful, and he must contact the troops everywhere to ensure that one blow is the end. On the other hand, the queen died in front of him. For his own safety, it is better to hide as far as possible. The matters of the royal family should be left to the Lord Highness and Dan Bo Gong.

The queen's suicide in the city was beyond the expectations of many people. Although the prince was defeated and the queen's fate was definitely not much better, no one expected that the queen, who looked gentle on the outside but was embarrassed inside, would have such courage at the last moment of her life.

At that time, the battle on the imperial city had not ended, and the rebels of the Qin family were still resisting stubbornly. Fan Xian and the eldest prince's confidant subordinates took care of the safety of the empress dowager and the ministers, and did not ignore the existence of the queen, but did not have the extra spirit to guard against the sadness of jumping.

The queen jumped down like this and died in front of more than ten thousand people. This scene was so thrilling.

The second prince stared at the queen's body like a fool, and suddenly began to tremble from the toes to the top of his head. His whole body was covered with coldness and he kept trembling. He didn't know what the ending he was facing. He subconsciously looked up and confirmed the safety of his biological mother, Concubine Shu, and then he collapsed to the ground.

There were soldiers from Dingzhou beside him, and surrounded him respectfully and vigilantly, fearing that he would have something wrong with him. The second prince had no expression on his face, but his eyes were a little dissipated, thinking in his heart. It has reached this point. If someone wants to die by himself, who can stop him?

The Qin family's army had retreated, and the Dingzhou army was constantly pursuing. There was a sound of killing in Kyoto, especially the rebels where the Dragon Banner was located, passing through the long street at a very fast speed. After passing the Zhengyang Gate, which Zhang Deqing was personally guarding, he ran towards the outside of Kyoto.

Zhang Deqing looked at the scene in front of him with a dead face, not knowing what it felt in his heart. Loyalty requires a lifetime of belief. Even if he was shaken at the last moment, the loyalty in the first half of his life became the basis for treason. He knew that he did not have the chance to turn around, nor did he have the courage to rely on the three thousand officers and soldiers of the City Gate Division and nine city gates to help the Qin family hold the speed of the Dingzhou Army.

The city gate can only guard against people outside the city, so how can it guard against the internal rebellion? Zhang Deqing sighed sadly. Finally, he looked at the Zhengyang Gate, which seemed to be shining with golden light under the blazing sun, led his own soldiers, followed the dragon flag, and the rebels' large troops. He began to escape.

Before Zhengyang Gate could close, the Dingzhou army led by Gong Dian had already come over and turned into a yellow dragon and chased out.

At this time, the prince who fled in panic was using the dragon flag as a trick, but he was guarded by the few remaining generals of the Qin family and came to Donghua. Mr. Qin and Qin Heng were both dead, and the rebels had no leader at this time. Fortunately, the generals sent by Mr. Qin to protect the prince were still alive. At such a critical moment, they came up with such a way to escape, intending to go out of the capital and advance north to meet with the Zhengbei Camp in Cangzhou.

However, the prince's heart was already in a state of depression. Since there was a foreshadowing in the capital, the Grand Governor Yan might have died, where could he escape? At this time, he didn't know that his mother had fallen into the city and died. He took a deep breath. After a moment, he forced himself to raise his spirits, thinking that if the father really died, he might not have been able to make a comeback with the help of his aunt.

After all, he is the crown prince, and the surname of the world is Li instead of Fan. Even if Fan Xian controls Kyoto, he may not be able to control the world.

However, the fighting spirit that had just been raised was shattered by the two tightly closed huge city gates in front of him. The prince and the generals looked at the city gate officers and soldiers who were waiting for arrows on the stone stairs on both sides of the Donghua Gate with a blue expression. The white-clothed official beside the general was very nervous.

The prince knew the official in white and knew that the other party was the third person in the Supervision Bureau. Yan Bingyun, who was very appreciated by his father. However, he had already received the news that when he persuaded Zhang Deqing, he had been taken down by his aunt and rescued by others... Why did he get here?

"Prince, please stay."

Yan Bingyun's white clothes had blood stains left on his early morning kills. He coughed twice, with a serious expression.

The man in black who saved his life in the early morning put him in a safe area and disappeared without a trace. He didn't know where he went. Yan Bingyun could not personally participate in what happened in Kyoto in the past half day, but he still watched all this nervously through a remaining channel. When something unusual happened in the square, he had already arrived at Donghuamen in advance.

No yamen is a solid body. Even if Zhang Deqing has been in charge of the city gate for twenty years, in today's situation, it is impossible for him to order all his subordinates to be on the same side as him, especially when the rebels were defeated at this time.

Yan Bingyun knew that he was taking risks, but he liked this kind of adventure, and he felt that after he made a big mistake, he had to make up for something and do something for Mr. Xiao Fan.

Fortunately, this time, he succeeded, and the City Gate Division successfully blocked the prince under Donghua Gate. His Majesty the Emperor's strict control over the City Gate Division made the Donghua Gate leader stand firmly by Fan Xian's side when he knew the specific situation - or rather, on the side of his own glory and wealth - if the Prince was asked to lead his troops out of Kyoto and contact the soldiers in the fourth field, who knows what changes will happen in the world in the future?

The rebels were determined to break through the city and did not give Yan Bingyun too much time to negotiate. Without asking the prince, the generals of the Qin family began to prepare for the battle. He heard a military order. The rebels bravely rushed towards Donghuamen to kill the generals. The arrows and feathers on both sides flew together, killing and killing fiercely.

However, not long after the battle started, the prince's face turned pale because he heard the rumbling sound coming from behind, and it was the cavalry brigade of the Dingzhou Army!

A flag was blown by the wind in the streets and alleys of Kyoto, and moved towards Donghuamen extremely quickly. The flag was written with the word "Dadi Leaf".

Ye Chong personally led his troops and found out that Donghua Gate had been closed, and the rebel army where the prince was located was blocked in front of this not-so-wide city gate. It occupied half of the street in densely packed.

He took a deep breath and knew that Donghua Gate could not hold for long. He raised his right arm and prepared to carry out the bloodiest part of today's Kyoto Incident, but he did not expect that at this moment, the rebels' violent attack on Donghua Gate gradually slowed down.

Since Ye Chong caught up, the prince kept lowering his head and hanging on his chest, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he slowly raised his head. His eyes were filled with darkness and relief, and he spoke:

"surrender."

Everyone calmed down and looked at His Highness the Crown Prince with incredible, angry, sad, despair, and puzzled eyes, for some reason he suddenly lost all his fighting spirit.

The prince's eyes slowly flew over the faces of these generals and soldiers who followed him loyally. He knew that if he fought to the death, it might not be impossible to break out of the city. However, until now, the prince was tired, tired, tired, and desperate. So what if he broke out of the city? From Kyoto to Cangzhou, thousands of miles away...

Could it be that these thousands of soldiers die one by one in a long pursuit? Could it be that the army will fight against the fertile land of the people of Qing Kingdom, kill people and set fire?

The prince turned his horse's head, looked at Ye Chong from afar through the forest of soldiers' guns all over the street, and said, "General Ye, I don't want to leave."

Ye Chong frowned slightly, not understanding why the scene in front of him was caused. He could not imagine any of the changes in the prince's psychological changes. He always thought that the prince was having other ideas, but since the prince spoke at this time, it seemed that there were opportunities, and Ye Chong was unwilling to have his Dingzhou army, which would cause greater casualties.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise."

At this time, Li Chengqian's position as crown prince had been abandoned by Fan Xian in the palace, but Ye Chong still said it habitually.

Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and said, "I have a condition."

"Prince, please speak."

"If I want to meet Fan Xian, he must promise me something."

Li Chengqian's face suddenly became cold, not because he understood something, but as a child of the Li family and the prince who had been trained as the next king for several years, he vaguely guessed the hand in heaven and what kind of fate he wanted to pinch in Kyoto, but he didn't want to succumb to that fate. At least he had to make the hand beaten by some small gravel when he was a child.

Ye Chong was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know where Mr. Fan is at this time."

A strange look flashed in Li Chengqian's eyes, but immediately guessed something, his face became ugly, and he began to worry about the safety of some people, thinking that his conditions had not yet fallen into Fan Xian's ears, is it still... still... it's time?

Ye Chong is lying because he can guess where Fan Xian is.

But in Kyoto, which has basically become a sea of ​​blood, both the rebels and the people who accept the power of Fan Xian’s power have lost their traces. Since the moment Mr. Qin was assassinated, Mr. Fan, who presided over the major events in Kyoto, has never been found again.

The prince who made up his mind in front of Donghua Gate, but like Ye Chong, guessed Fan Xian’s whereabouts at the first time. The reason why Ye Chong could guess was because he told Fan Xian himself that the prince could guess was because he cared about everything there and the people there.

Fan Xian is in Taiping Villa.

He was dressed in black, standing on this bank of Liujing River, looking at the scenery on the other side, the shadows of the trees were transformed together. If he didn't make any careful judgment, he wouldn't be able to see it. This place was already the suburbs of Beijing. After killing Qin Ye, he took advantage of the chaos in Kyoto and crossed the high Kyoto walls and came here.

Because in this royal villa, there are his most concerned wife Lin Wan'er, Dabao, and the eldest princess who planned the affairs of Dadongshan and the rebellion of Kyoto.

Fan Xian is not unfamiliar with Taiping Villa. To be precise, he is extremely familiar with it, because this manor was originally his own property twenty years ago, and it was the place where his mother Ye Qingmei lived after she came to Qingguo.

After the Ye family was destroyed, the manor was taken over to the royal family. However, His Majesty the Emperor kept sealing the Taiping Villa and guarding it with the guards of the Grand Inner Guards, and strictly prohibiting any member of the royal family from entering, so his reputation gradually disappeared.

In the summer and autumn of the fourth year of Qingli, Fan Xian once took his sister to watch across the river and gave a faraway sacrifice. At that time, the river breeze blew, and he sighed.

Fan Xian didn't understand why the eldest princess chose the Taiping Villa as her residence for commanding Kyoto affairs, but he didn't care about these things at this time. How to rescue Wan'er and Dabao safely was the top priority.

Although Wan'er is the eldest princess' biological daughter, Fan Xian dared not guarantee that after seeing so many years of planning ending in such a bleak way, will that crazy woman become disagreeable?

For the past ten days, he had always known what kind of situation Wan'er was in, but he had never been able to solve it, nor did he show any anxiety in front of others. However, only he himself knew how the safety of Wan'er and Dabao were affecting his emotions.

Standing on the river bank and looking at the river bank, Fan Xian's heart sucked slightly, and then he realized that Wan'er was more important in her heart than she could imagine.

Wu Zhu once told him personally about the composition of the room in Taiping Villa, and Wu Zhu had gone deep into the courtyard to get something. After Fan Xian came to the other side of the courtyard, he carefully inspected the defense power of the Qingyou Villa. It was much weaker than he thought. It seemed that the Supervision Bureau and himself continued to attack Xinyang in recent years, and it was indeed useful. The masters around the eldest princess have been cut a lot.

However, the sound of killing in Kyoto was shocking, while the Taiping Villa in the suburbs of Beijing was quiet. This very sharp contrast made Fan Xian dare not move lightly.

The site selection at the beginning of the construction of Taiping Villa was very special. It was actually built on a small peninsula in the Liujing River. There was only one passage to enter the hospital, and the terrain on the surrounding river banks was relatively shallow. Fan Xian observed the branches of the forest for a long time, but found that his vision was blocked by the courtyard wall and he could not see the situation inside.

The courtyard wall is designed in a very clever way, not very high, but it just blocks all the sights from the outside.

Fan Xian's lips were a little bitter, and he knew that even if he was carrying a heavy sniper, it would be useless. As soon as he thought about this, he couldn't help but feel a snorkel. He thought to himself that my mother had designed this yard back then. Did she ever think about resisting the heavy sniper shooting?

However, there is no villa in the world that cannot be attacked, otherwise twenty years ago, the woman named Ye would not have disappeared from the world of Qing Kingdom. Fan Xian was just a little afraid of being attacked and did not dare to attack because he knew that Li Yunrui's move had indeed pinched his seven-inch.

Without thinking for a long time on the river bank, Fan Xian's face calmed down, took a deep breath, turned to the Zhuzhong Pier Bridge that he had passed by, and walked to the main entrance of the Taiping Villa like a walk.

Many people suddenly appeared behind the bamboo forest on the wall, surrounding Fan Xian in the middle. These princess’ personal bodyguard masters looked at him with shock on their faces. They had already recognized his identity and did not understand why he dared to show up like this at such a moment!
