Empress Han

Two days later, Hong Dan suddenly said that Du Ruo, Feng Shunchang's court lady, had finally made a move.

Zhengjun put down the bamboo slips, and his waist, which was half lying on the soft couch, straightened up. "Oh? Tell me quickly."

Seeing that the government suddenly became interested, Hong Dan didn't have much appetite. It turned out that after knowing that Feng Shunchang was suspected, Hong Dan was ordered to watch the movement of Feng Shunchang's yard from Lan Yuxuan's dark line. That hidden pile was just a little maid who cleaned On weekdays, she couldn't enter Feng Shunchang's yard, so she could only sweep around the yard. When she finished cleaning that day and was about to go back to her handy room, she saw Du Ruo, Feng Shunchang's personal maid, go out.And she didn't go out as openly as normal, but looked around nervously, and subconsciously hid behind the colonnade.

After Du Ruo came out of Lan Yuxuan's door, she also followed until she entered the Royal Garden, but she couldn't follow anymore. One was that she was going back to the handyman's room at that time. If she didn't go back, the same room The few people in the room must have doubts in their hearts, and it will be difficult to think about actions in the future. They were worried, but found Hong Dan passing by, and hurriedly went to talk about things, Hong Dan let her go back, and he asked the other person to go back. The little maid who gave birth followed.

Unexpectedly, Du Ruo went around and went to the Leng Palace, talked with a man who was wearing a cloak to hide his whole face for a while, and then went back. She didn't show her face, and when she left, the little palace lady followed her from afar. Unexpectedly, that person was too familiar with this place, and maybe she was afraid that people would see her hiding her head and showing her tail, so she deliberately went around in circles. The little palace lady was lost after all, but However, Hong Dan discovered that the palaces around the place where the little maid lost her were the Mingguang Hall and the second Mingcheng Hall. Mingcheng Hall was the residence of the former emperor Cheng Jieyu. Concubine, but next to the Mingguang Hall, Chen Meiren lives in Baohua Hall in the front hall, Li Bazi and Ning Bazi live in the side hall, except for Chen Meiren, who can still be favored by Zhang Meiren, the other two are transparent people Usually boil in the palace.

In the end, Hong Dan was a little ashamed, "Madam, the servants are stupid, and the people under him have lost track of them, so I don't know who is behind the scenes."

Although the ruler has some regrets, not everything can go as he wished, what's more, the scope of Mingguang Palace has been reduced a lot, not to mention that the maids are not martial arts masters, so they can't climb over the wall like walking on their feet. Pingdi, in the final analysis, still can't get in, and there is no one from her here in Mingguang Palace, this situation is not bad.

Consoled Hongdan a few words, let her go to investigate the Mingguang Palace, don't be too anxious, so as not to startle the snake, originally she investigated this matter because when she thought she had the East Palace in her hands, there were other Some people can kill people here without leaving a trace, which makes her feel very insecure. If there is more than one such person, then the only thing she can guarantee is her own Chenghuiyuan, and she can't even control such a place. Once the queen is killed, the entire harem is so big that if anyone comes and stabs him, it will be endless.

The prince is more or less aware that the ruler is investigating matters in the harem, and he has his own secret power, so the backyard naturally has to watch, but now the former court is too busy with affairs, so there is no way to spare Find out who is doing the tricks in the backyard, and as the hostess of the backyard, she is also investigating the political monarch. Just to show that she trusts him, she can't intervene openly. The key is that it is now the most critical time for King Lian.

Wu He, the chief general of the Yingyang Army, wrote in a letter saying that King Lian was exhausted now, because he had not seized the more prosperous places around him and had to support so many troops, and the traffic arteries in the surrounding areas were cut off again. Supplies are all dependent on those private caravans and unblocked mountain trails, so the income is naturally limited.

No matter how arrogant Lian Wang is, he still knows that he is in a bad situation now, and the arms around him are still there, because they know that they and Lian Wang have been tied together. He even ran away with so many rootless young children, even those who dragged their families along did not dare to escape.In the backyard, the princess tried her best to maintain it, but she also made plans in private. At least her three children did not want them to die like this.Except for the elder son who was with his father, the younger son and the younger daughter were only four years old, and they were ignorant of things. They found loyal servants and sent them to their natal family without notifying them. If there is still a chance, Naturally, she will pick it up, and if it really doesn't work, she will naturally marry a chicken and follow a chicken, marry a dog and follow a dog, and the children can live incognito.

King Lian looked at the eldest son beside him, gritted his teeth, and acquiesced to the arrangement of the princess. Recently, the Yingyang army's offensive has become more and more fierce, and their tactics have become more and more. He was a little exhausted.Now, besides struggling to the death with the offensive, he also let his underlings come out to assassinate important courtiers and local officials, especially the places outside the encirclement of the Yingyang army, forcing the Yingyang army to rescue them.

I have to say that this is quite effective. At least Wu He really had to allocate some troops to protect those local officials. It really made people panic everywhere. Wu He felt that even if he took King Lian, he would be fine. Good fruit to eat.

Yingyang's army is all soldiers, and they are experts at cutting people with knives, so it's not enough to deal with those elusive killers.

There is a specialization in the art industry, so it's better for colleagues to deal with it. In addition to ordering the killers who ordered the Yingyang Army to use their superior numbers to reduce their chances of attacking, the emperor transferred people from his own dark forces.King Lian's offensive became more and more sluggish.

Lian Wang also had no image at all, and he didn't care about grooming and tidying up. His hair soon became unkempt and straw-like, but it was bound by a crown anyway, but the blue and black under his eyes and the bloodshot eyes showed that this man was approaching. The limit is reached.

Bian Yu was already dead, and Xu Ran couldn't take it anymore, and now the outside world was all supported by Xie Ting.A few members of the palace guards killed Zhu He when they were fleeing, and now the poor supplies are all at the mercy of Xie Changyong, and it seems that they will run out of oil and the lights will dry up.Prince Lian stared blankly at the extremely bleak Prince Lian Mansion in front of him.

Once upon a time, this place was full of flowers and resplendent, and I was also high-spirited and ambitious. Compared with the emperor who swallowed water in the court, wasn't an enterprising person like myself more suitable to lead this dynasty forward.They are all an ancestor, why can he be the emperor, he can only be a idle king who only collects the fief tax, even worse than the vassal king before Emperor Wu.

What is plotting to usurp the throne, plotting to commit crimes, obviously, this is obviously to get back what belongs to him.

But no matter how much he deceives himself and others, this desolation can't be faked.Walking out of the mansion, you can see the ruins on the street. Few people dare to go to the street, for fear of being captured on the top of the city or forced to make human shields to resist the Yingyang army attacking from various paths.

Walking to the top of the city, there was hardly a single soldier who was not stained with blood and was injured, but the Yingyang army in the distance did not decrease much.

Even if he doesn't want to admit it anymore, he also understands that these people who can be called defeated soldiers have no chance of winning. The difference lies in the time.But he will never surrender, never.We've come this far, and there's no turning back.

After surviving a wave of attacks again, the rest of the people were crumbling. King Lian was full of bitterness, and said to Lian Ming who was following him, "I don't know how long I can survive here. If you fail, you will fail. This king's luck is not good. Death is the last thing you want to do." Death, I would rather die than I will bow my head. But I will arrange some escape routes for you. You have followed me hard for so many years, and you can’t let you follow me to die. I will create opportunities for you to leave here and live a peaceful life. .”

Lian Ming looked at the person in front of him, as if he had never met him before, and lowered his head, "I don't need it, since I follow you, I have no intention of regretting it, and my relatives are gone, so I have nothing to miss. Your fate is yours."

King Lian paused, and laughed nervously, "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that people would follow me after I've gotten to this point. It's not a loss."

After going back, he sent Xie Changyong away with the only dark power in his hands, but he didn't expect that he was surrounded by the Yingyang army in the end, and Xie Ting was also dead after news that Xie Changyong was captured.

King Lian knew that the city gate was also broken.The eldest son died a long time ago, and the princess also took a step ahead of time. The younger son and the younger daughter have been sent to a place where no one knows them. Sitting in the chair in the hall, they looked around again and murmured, It's over."

With a bang, someone broke into the door, and someone shouted in surprise, "Come in, King Lian is actually here, and he didn't escape."

King Lian straightened his appearance, "This king will not run away, but you are the ones who are rude."

He pulled out the sword that had been placed beside him, and wiped it on his neck without hesitation.A red mark appeared, and blood scrambled out.Lian Wang fell down on the seat, his eyes gradually lost their luster, and finally closed permanently.

The team leader who came in didn't know what to do. He was supposed to be captured alive, but he committed suicide in front of his eyes. Can a dead person have the same meaning as a living person? The rewards he got must be much less.

He hurriedly asked someone to inform Wu He, the leader of the Yingyang Army, but Wu He didn't care whether King Lian was dead or alive. If he didn't escape, he was not at fault.However, when someone came to report that King Lian's youngest son and daughter were gone, his mood instantly turned to the temperature of ice cubes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Find it for me. I have searched all over Liancheng. I have to find the way out of Liancheng." These two children." Then it was to arrange for people to clean up the town, arrange for people to go to Kyoto to deliver the good news, and request to send people to take over the follow-up matters here.After all, they are border troops and cannot leave the border for a long time.

As a result, the people who sent to search for the two children finally found only the youngest daughter of King Lian, but not the youngest son.Lian Wang's young daughter also contracted a serious illness during the journey and died on the way to Beijing.
