The old emperor nodded, and Zhou Heng held the old emperor's arm up the steps.

He obviously felt the old emperor's body trembling at this time, after all, there was a prince there to be punished.

When he walked to the gate of Yangxin Palace, the prince was tied up. It seemed that because of his struggle, several eunuchs pressed him. After all, the prince was worth it, and several people were extremely hard-working. The prince was lying on the ground.

The old emperor's face was gloomy. Seeing the prince's anger, he stomped his feet and shouted:

"The prince was demoted to a commoner and sent to the heavenly prison, waiting for the three departments to review!"

When the prince widened his eyes and demoted himself to a commoner, he was no longer a royal family, but he could still leave his life. Even the entire mansion could survive. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and tears flowed down his face.

"Father, the father, the son is wrong, but the son is wrong, the son should not be bewitched, the son is unfilial!"

The roaring sounds were endless, and the little eunuchs seemed to turn a blind eye and dragged them down directly. Then several guards were escorted away.

Zhou Heng helped the old emperor step into the inner hall, and Pang Qi guarded the door. Although he didn't feel anything, Zhou Heng's body was already wet. Such a thrilling night finally passed.

At this moment, a figure followed behind him. It was a little eunuch with a very low body, holding a tray in his hand, and two cups of tea on it.

Zhou Heng looked at the little eunuch and narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't ask for tea. Why did he serve so promptly? It was just now that the outside was in chaos. When did he prepare tea?

Just as Zhou Heng was a little stunned, the old emperor had turned around and sat on the chair. When he saw the eunuch bringing tea, he just raised his hand and waited for the tea to be handed in front of him.

At this moment, the little eunuch flipped his hand under the tray, threw the tray to one side, and a dagger appeared in his palm, lifted it up and stabbed it at the old emperor who was close to him.

There were only three of them in the inner hall. It was too late for Zhou Heng to call people. He subconsciously touched his sleeves and shouted in his mouth. He grabbed the pistol and shot the little eunuch three times.

With three bangs of gunshots, the little eunuch stopped moving, his body softened, and he fell to this side. Zhou Heng was also a little stunned. Seeing that the old emperor was suppressed by the little eunuch, he rushed to the front and kicked the little eunuch aside, helped the old emperor up and down to take a closer look.

"Your Majesty, are you injured?"

The old emperor also looked at his body, but the little eunuch's blood was stained with his cuffs, and he was not injured. He raised his foot and kicked the little eunuch who fell to the ground.

At this moment, everyone at the door rushed in. Pang Qi was the fastest. After all, it can be judged by the sound. It was gunshots and others couldn't use them. They could only say that they were attacked in the hall. They squatted down and checked the little eunuch. The man was dead, with three holes in his chest, and bloody pieces.

He quickly knelt down, "Young Master, the man is dead!"

Zhou Heng is a doctor and is used to life and death, but this is the first time he has killed someone in his life. He is afraid at this time, his hands and feet are trembling, and he handed the pistol to Pang Qi and tried hard to control himself.

"Please put away this, carry it out, and wipe the ground quickly. All eunuchs are not allowed to enter. You can only come in and serve after Eunuch Fang checks!"

After saying this, Zhou Heng suddenly felt that he had surpassed himself and quickly looked at the old emperor with a bitter face.

"Your Majesty, I was frightened and lost my composure. Can this be arranged?"

The old emperor nodded, "According to Zhongyuan Bo's instructions, everyone will withdraw from the hall. Where is Miss Su?"

Zhou Heng had a meal. He had been busy protecting himself just now, but later he was in a mess. He forgot that he was brought in by Su Xiaoxiao when he entered the palace. By the way, this person was not with Pang Qi, where was he?

Pang Qi quickly saluted, "Miss Su Wu has gone to Cining Palace. When King Ning came in, someone sent back news that she went to help General Su who was guarding the palace city. It is said that a large number of refugees attacked the city there!"

The old emperor suddenly realized, but he also frowned.

"All refugees are rebels. It's better for Miss Su to follow her, it's a great help. It's dawn. Clean up here and go out. If you have any news from each palace, send someone to report it."

The body of the little eunuch had been carried out by someone and was wiped off the ground. Although there was no blood, the smell of blood was still very pungent. You must know that there were thousands or eight hundred people dead in front of the Yangxin Palace!

Pang Qi and his men evacuated. The old emperor did not ask about the person's identity, but he obviously knew it.

Zhou Heng took two steps back and was about to go out with him. The old emperor raised his eyes and waved his hand at Zhou Heng.

"You stay, I have something to ask you!"

Zhou Heng was a little restrained at this moment. The only thing left outside was to clear the pistol. It was easier for these people to clean up. It was just that they had to take Wen Changjin's nest. Looking at the old emperor's meaning, it seemed that he wanted to ask the pistol. Zhou Heng felt a little confused.

However, he did not dare to resist the order at this moment, so he hurriedly approached the old emperor and saw him waving his hand and sitting on the side.

"When I just saved me, what did you use? It was so loud?"

Zhou Heng blinked, how can I introduce this thing?

"It's just a kind of firearm, which is a life-saving thing. However, if you can hit this thing six times, if you miss six times, the opponent will get a gap."

The old emperor nodded and understood Zhou Heng's meaning. Although this thing was fast, it was too loud. He paused and looked at Zhou Heng with deep meaning.

"Is this thing developed for Ning Wang?"

Zhou Heng shook his head, guessing that the old emperor would have such a question, and he was not surprised at all, just stood up with his fists.

"Your Majesty clearly understands that this is an experiment for the Datong garrison. I have only developed a few of them. At first I hope to use them with the flying ball, but the range is not enough, so I finally gave up!"

The old emperor smiled, and Zhou Heng made an anxious argument. How could he not understand? In fact, he was just afraid that he would arouse suspicion from others. This thing can be kept confidential when handed over to King Ning.

"Okay, I don't mean to blame me, but this thing doesn't have a range?"

Zhou Heng sighed, "Your Majesty, it's absolutely fine to shoot at close range, but if you have more than fifty steps, your accuracy is not as good as bows and crossbows.

However, the continuous-fire crossbow arrows made by His Highness Ning and others are three or four times longer than this range and have higher accuracy. The most important thing is to be silent. Once the continuous-fire crossbow is fully put into use, this is more suitable for the flying ball, hidden sneak attack inspection, and these abilities are maximized."

After Zhou Heng said that, he didn't dare to get up. It was really not easy to do something without hiding it from the old emperor. But today was really thrilling. I hope that for the sake of saving him, he would not care about it. After all, at the most critical moment, he was still thinking of King Ning.

This is also what makes Zhou Heng angry. Since King Ning knew about it, why didn’t he tell them, it was too unprepared.

The old emperor stood up and helped Zhou Heng up.

"Get up, you saved me. This is more important than anything else. If something happens to me at this time, Daliang is really in danger. King Ning sent back the news, saying that the Tatars seemed to have received the news and were gathering on the border, waiting for an opportunity to prepare to attack the city."

Zhou Heng stood up and secretly looked up at the old emperor. Seeing that he was not dissatisfied with anything, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The old emperor sighed and continued:

"Fortunately, the flying team has sent a batch, and the border is temporarily worry-free."

Zhou Heng was stunned and recalled it. It seemed that Fang Hua had said a few days ago that Feiqiu had prepared a batch for the Ministry of War, saying that he would send it to Liaobei, and that the personnel had been trained. It seemed that this was a game made by the old emperor and King Ning, and this thought was too terrible.

Obviously, for the sake of safety, no one knew about this. The old emperor looked at Zhou Heng's eyes and laughed immediately, as if he was also controlling the situation, and he felt a little relaxed and couldn't help but say.

"You must be wondering, why did King Ning lead his men suddenly fall from the sky, right?"

Zhou Heng kept nodding, this was indeed what he was most confused about.

"Wen Shang is everywhere in the capital... Wen Changjin's eyeliner. Such a large number of teams have entered without any alarm. This really makes me wonder."

The old emperor smiled even happier and waved his hand to signal Zhou Heng to sit closer.

"This matter is really related to you. Your master Xuyun sent me a message. He found a secret passage in the underground palace of Baohua Temple. Fang's partner sent someone to investigate and found that the secret passage actually led to the back of the Yangxin Palace in the palace.

There are also a large number of gold, silver and swords hidden in the secret passage, but these swords have rotted into scrap iron. Fang’s companion speculated that this is the passage for Wei State to escape, because the entrance behind the Yangxin Palace has been blocked by stones, and this secret passage has no connection with other secret passages."

When Zhou Heng heard this, he was in a state of spirit. From the incident of the dry well, it can be seen that there were secret passages everywhere in the capital. The Jinwu Sect of the previous dynasty relied on this to rule the court and the public. Then the secret passages that Wen Changjin and others entered the palace were naturally controlled by the factory guards.

"Secret Road! Then Wen Changjin also entered the palace by relying on the secret road?"

The old emperor nodded, "That's right, there are secret passages in the capital, and they are connected to each other. Fang's companion had long discovered that there was a shop in Ma City, with a secret passage and a dry well in the Yangxin Hall, so they did not alarm them, but just poisoned the secret passage."

"Your Majesty's wise!"

The old emperor smiled and looked at Zhou Heng and said:

"The letters you sent to Fang Fan played a very important role. You found this shop after thoroughly checking people related to the Wen family. Although they were hiding deeply, the old housekeeper still showed flaws when he went in and out many times.

By the way, I heard that you are in Beishan, it’s not that Bai Qingyun?”

Zhou Heng's heart trembled. These words made Zhou Heng think a lot for a moment. After all, the matter of King Ning coming to Beijing was so dense that they didn't know what else they didn't know.

"Your Majesty has made it clear that Bai Qingyun has left. She created the theater in Beishan by herself. We also want to remember it."

After Zhou Heng said that, he fell to his knees. At this moment, he really didn't dare to look up at the old emperor. People say that ginger is still a big boss, and it would be the best for the old emperor.

At this time, my eyes could not deceive him. It would be better to think about the sad things. Zhou Heng did not pinch his thighs. He lowered his head and thought of Bai Qingyun leaving. He felt sad in an instant and his eyes turned red.

The old emperor stood up, helped Zhou Heng up, looked at the expression on his face, and sighed.

"Since ancient times, beautiful women have been so poor. If she is here, I would still want to give her to you. The Queen Mother said that Xiu'er did not object, it's a pity!"

Zhou Heng took a snout and knew in his heart that if Bai Qingyun was really there, he would definitely not be like this now. Since he had hidden it, he would hide it to the end. In fact, it would be difficult to see him again in this life after going to Siam. He let out a long sigh.

"Thank you, your Majesty, I'm rude!"

At this moment, a sound came from outside the Yangxin Palace. Fang Jizhong walked in, followed by King Ning, General Su, Zhang Jumian and others.

Zhou Heng quickly stood up and greeted several people. The gate of the Yangxin Palace was no longer closed. The bodies outside had been cleaned up, and the bricks and stones on the ground were washed away by clear water. Not to mention that these people were still very fast.

King Ning and his friends walked to the old emperor and bowed to him.

"Your Majesty, the rebels in the city and the remnants of the Jin Chou Cult have been cleaned up, and the trapped ministers in each mansion have been rescued. I will come and report it!"

The old emperor quickly helped King Ning up. The silver armor was covered with blood, which shows that the encirclement and suppression in the city was also quite tragic.

"Okay, are the losses big?"

Ning Wang shook his head, "The Datong Army suffered no serious losses, no deaths, but dozens of seriously injured people were sent to Huichuntang at this time. As for the factory guards, the losses were very serious."

Zhou Heng was scolded and said that King Ning really knew how to be a human being. This was trust. He threw the injured person to Huichuntang. But thinking about it, Liu Renjie was from Wen Changjin, so he really dared not say what the Imperial Hospital is like.

Fang Jizhong took a step forward at this time, "Your Majesty, I have lost more than a dozen masters here, but the remnants of the Jinwu Sect in several strongholds have been captured. They are just in charge of the ministers in the court who appeared on the list found in Wen Changjin's house. They are not captured."

As he said that, Fang Jizhong handed a list to the old emperor. The old emperor opened it and looked at it. Zhou Heng was not far away. Although he could not see the name, the page was really crowded.

The old emperor's face was gloomy, he slapped the table hard and threw the list to Fang Jizhong.

"These people were arrested and interrogated strictly. In addition, they sent someone to southern Sichuan to capture Zhu Bingxiang back to me. It seems that I was too kind and should not give him the reward of King Fu."

King Ning looked at the old emperor and experienced so much in an instant, and his body was shaking. After all, his two sons participated in the palace transformation, and this anger could not be relieved by just a few words.

"Your Majesty calms down. I feel that the most urgent thing is to go to southern Sichuan to let the garrison control the affairs of southern Sichuan, and the other is to send people to Fujian. Wen Changjin's plan is so meticulous that Fujian will not be unchanged."

Fang Jizhong blinked and continued:

"Your Majesty, when investigating the Wen family, he found a secret room where a legless man was imprisoned. However, this person had been strangled to death for several days, and his body was a little corrupt. It seemed that this person had been imprisoned for many years.

As for the identity of this person, it is impossible to verify, because when the old slave brought people to the Wen family, the butler of the Wen family had killed all the Wen family, and there was no living person. He himself committed suicide in front of the door. Obviously, he knew that Wen Changjin had failed and did not want to disclose information."

The old emperor frowned and thought about it and sighed. In fact, if you don’t check it, you can know that this person must be the real orphan of the previous dynasty, otherwise he would not have been imprisoned for many years.

"It is the greatest death of a person. I think this person is a member of the Chu family. Although I don't know the name, I'd better have a grand funeral. If you come to do this, as for the three tribes of the Wen family, you should first be detained and wait for the post. All the shops that can spread the news from the Wen family can be closed. The news from the capital must not be sent out."

Fang Jizhong quickly said yes, and the old emperor's eyes fell on Duke Wei.

"King Ning will stay in the capital for the time being. The five military camps need to be rectified. Duke Wei will work hard for you. You need to lead your army to travel day and night to Fujian, which is across the sea from Yingzhou. I remember that some of the royal family of Wei State were demoted to Yingzhou. There would be a tough battle there."

Zhou Heng blinked, thinking of Yang Weijun, the grandson of Duke Wei Guo, raised his eyes to look at the old emperor, and hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether to say it or not. King Ning had come to Zhou Heng at some point and slapped him on the shoulder.
