After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

"Bah!"

The chief eunuch shouted, "What's the matter with you yelling and making such a fuss?"

Not to mention in the palace, even in a wealthy family, a servant who was so flustered and said something bad would be dragged away and beaten to death at the worst, or driven out of the house at the least.

He got angry about this because he was actually trying to protect the eunuch and couldn't bear to see his miserable end.

However, the eunuch didn't know what he was thinking. His brain seemed to be filled with water. He was so anxious that he pointed his fingers and said, "Your Majesty! Something terrible is happening!"

The emperor was confused and angry, and then he heard him add: "South Gate... South Gate of the capital, the rebels attacked from the south gate!"

what?

"What did you say!"

The chief eunuch grabbed the young eunuch's collar and asked with bloodshot eyes: "What are you talking about?!"

How can it be?

It was calm just now.

Didn’t it say that Prince Ruyang had just captured Anxing two days ago? How could he have possibly entered the capital?

Even if we reach the foot of the capital, it would be impossible to attack it.

Unlike other cities in the Central Plains, as the capital, the walls of Beijing are reinforced every year, and the city defense is patrolled by troops that are replaced at regular intervals for twelve hours.

Let me put it this way, even if there is no capital camp, with the current defensive strength, once the city gates are closed, even if a brave and warlike nomadic tribe comes, they can only sigh at the wall.

However, the eunuch's expression proved that he was not lying.

How dare he lie about such a big thing?

Under the eunuch's hand, the eunuch struggled and said, "Sir, it's true, they really broke in!"

The chief eunuch looked up blankly and saw more people rushing towards him, their hurried footsteps revealing panic.

There has never been such a scene in the palace.

The emperor was the first to understand: it was true, the enemy was attacking.

He lifted up his robe and ran quickly towards the Queen Mother.

In the inner parade ground, the two armies were wrestling with each other.

They received training at the same time, had similar basic skills, and were evenly matched in fighting.

Fortunately, both in their posture and eyes, they have the awareness of soldiers rather than palace maids.

The day they open their eyes is no longer about serving their masters, but about strengthening their bodies so that they can lift weapons and carry shields and follow the instructions during training.

Even they themselves couldn't believe that they could achieve such a goal in less than 20 days.

It turns out that fighting on the battlefield is not exclusive to men. As long as they pay the price and train hard, women can do it too.

Due to gender differences, women are naturally not as strong as men, but that doesn't mean they can't practice.

As long as you practice, you will improve every day.

Tired and exhausted, after waking up, it’s a new day.

When the real war came, they were glad in their hearts that they were not weak women who could only be slaughtered at will.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang——"

The sound of gongs and drums rang out, and the two armies that were rehearsing, led by their respective captains, formed up and quickly ran to the reviewing stand.

The Empress Dowager said succinctly: "The enemy has already attacked the south gate of the capital. I want you to become real soldiers guarding the imperial city from this moment on!"

"Defend the imperial city and survive, and everyone will be rewarded ten gold coins!"

There was no time to be surprised or to digest the news. They divided into twelve teams according to the rules they had practiced in the past and rushed towards the gates of various parts of the palace.

Inside the Imperial Palace, the Jinwu Guard Office.

"General! The Emperor has issued an order, ordering all the Jinwu Guards to evacuate the Imperial Palace and ascend the Imperial City Wall!"

"Withdraw from the palace?"

The general of the Jinwu Guard frowned, extremely puzzled by this strange imperial edict.

The existence of the Jinwu Guards is not only to patrol inside and outside the palace and guard the gates and palace doors, but their more important responsibility is to protect the safety of the palace.

However, the imperial edict clearly stated that they were not allowed to stay in the palace and were all to go up to the city walls to resist foreign enemies within a quarter of an hour, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.

It's like writing the word "suspicion" right on the surface.

The general of the Jinwu Guard was indignant, but he couldn't disobey the order, right?

He immediately gave the order to recall the teams that were on patrol and have them all return to the city walls.

The situation was urgent and he did not notice that several of his men turned grim in expression after hearing the order.

In the palace, the news that the south gate of the capital had been breached by the rebels spread quickly, and a storm was about to come.

The Jinwu Guards evacuated the palace, and then trained female soldiers locked the doors from the city wall to the palace one by one.

The Imperial City is a city within a city in the capital.

It not only has its own moat and suspension bridge, solid city walls over three meters high, but also deep city gates and barbicans. Its defensive fortifications are even better than those of the capital.

There are two ways to enter and exit the palace: one is to go directly through the gate, and the other is to go up the city wall first and then leave through the route provided for patrolling soldiers.

There are two roads on the city wall, one leading to the palace and the other leading outside the palace.

Now that the door to the palace is locked, wouldn't that force them to fight on the city wall?

Or, be a deserter.

It’s not that they are unwilling to fight, this is the mission of the Jinwu Guards.

The Jinwu Guards are the elite among the elite.

During the selection process, in addition to the requirements for height, appearance and martial arts, a family background investigation is also required.

Anyone who is a criminal within three generations, or a slave or a lowly person, is not allowed to enter.

Daily drills and assessments are also the most tiring.

For ordinary people, if a family had a good boy who became a member of the Jinwu Guard, it would bring honor to the family and be worth burning incense for.

The Jinwu Guards have not encountered any rebels who dared to rebel and invade the imperial palace for several generations, but once they appear, it is their mission to protect the imperial city and fight against the enemy.

Today's imperial edict is extremely humiliating.

The General of the Jinwu Guard gritted his teeth and carried out the orders in the imperial edict.

He never thought of taking the opportunity to desert, nor did he intend to do so.

No matter what the emperor meant, since he had assumed this responsibility, the enemy could only step over his dead body if they wanted to break into the imperial city!

The ministers who had just finished their morning court session were stopped at the door: "The Emperor has ordered that everyone return to the Wende Hall."

The crowd immediately became agitated.

They all knew the news that the city had been breached and wanted to return home quickly to reunite with their families before making plans. But how could they not expect that they could not leave the palace?

Are we going to take them as hostages?

This is this...

Does it mean that both sides will perish together?

Everyone's heart sank.

Among them, those who were loyal to the royal family were naturally fearless. They lived and died together with the emperor they were loyal to. How could this not be a good story?

Life or death doesn’t matter, maybe you can leave your name in history.

The ministers from various major families turned their heads to look at Xie Shu, hoping that he could come up with a decision.

"Master Situ, my daughter is still in confinement. I am really worried. Please talk to the emperor and let me out!"

"Yes, there is no telling how chaotic things will be outside. I am an orphan and a widow at home. What should I do if I encounter unreasonable soldiers?"

"grown ups……"

"grown ups……"

Xie Shu was upset and smiled coldly.
