My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 121 The resentful spirit who died in vain in Dazheng Palace?

two hours ago.

The fool's roar resounded throughout Yongshou's bed.

"There are thieves!"

Ying Chengyu subconsciously grabbed the dagger on the pillow with his right hand, his eyes suddenly opened, his body rolled to the left, and his sharp eyes glanced left and right.

Seeing that there was no one else nearby, Ying Chengyu let out the breath he had been holding in his chest since he woke up and listened to his crazy heartbeat.

"Hu~~"

"My lord!" The eighth husband pushed open the door and said quickly, "Someone threw a haystack in from outside the palace wall!"

"Go and have a look!" Ying Chengyu stood up, grabbed the sword in his right hand, and walked out of the bedroom quickly.

As soon as they arrived in the courtyard, a rocket crossed the palace wall and landed on the haystack.

The flames rise!

There was a trace of astonishment in Ying Chengzhen's eyes: "How dare they do this!"

"How could they do this?"

If Ying Cheng died in Yongcheng, then Lao Ai's plan would not be realized.

It was not that Ying Chengyu had not considered the possibility of Lao Ai going crazy. He used Xiong Mao's protection to repeatedly provoke Lao Ai just to test Lao Ai's bottom line.

Since Lao Ai endured Ying Chengyu's frantic attempts to commit suicide, why did he attack tonight?
Bafu quickly ran to a bundle of hay that had not yet been ignited, sniffed it closely, and immediately reported with an ugly face:

"No wonder it caught fire so quickly, it's the smell of tung oil!"

"My lord, the other party may have come here tonight to burn Yongshou!"

Looking at the haystacks that were burning all around and the palace that was set ablaze by the haystacks, Ying Chengyu frowned and thought: "If they want to kill me, they shouldn't use this method."

Lao Ai could have poisoned Ying Chengyu, or assassinated him while Ying Chengyu was out of the city.

Either way is easier to defend than burning Yongshou and sleeping with fire.

After all, Yongshou's bed is not as dense and compact as the tube towers of later generations. Each palace of Yongshou's bed is independent.

Especially the distance between the main halls is more than two feet.

If Ying Chenglong was really burned to death in Yongshou's bed, no one would think that Ying Chenglong died accidentally!
In this case, why did Lao Ai kill Ying Chenglong without knowing the fire?

It’s unreasonable on both sides!

Su Jiao threw his hands away in anger: "Your Majesty, these people really have the guts to harm you in Yong Palace!"

"Let me lead the army and kill them!"

Ying Chengyu said thoughtfully: "Perhaps what they want is for you to rush out!"

"A large number of soldiers and horses must have been deployed outside Yongshou's bed."

"Even if we all rush out, we still can't be our opponent."

Su Jiao was speechless.

Even though Su Jiao was confident in his own and Pao Ze's strength, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. Their troops were still too few.

The Eighth Master said in a deep voice: "If the head of the family is worried that Su Bugeng's troops will be exposed, we can protect the head of the family and kill him."

"Su Bugeng and others can follow the tunnel and go elsewhere to avoid the flames."

Su Jiao nodded repeatedly: "We have dug out several exits. Your Majesty, please feel free to escape. There is no need to worry about us."

This seems to be the safest method.

But Ying Chengyu couldn't agree.

Ying Chengyu didn't think Lao Ai could bear the result of his death in Yong Shou's bed.

This fire is most likely aimed at Su Jiao and others.

If Ying Chengyu fled and Su Jiao and others took refuge in the tunnel, how could Lao Ai not use the detection dogs to follow Su Jiao and others along the tunnel?
As a result, Ying Chengyu's long-term planning will be in vain, and a large number of loyal warriors will be lost!

Looking at the main road leading from Gaomen to the back bedroom, Ying Chengyu felt cruel and said in a deep voice: "It's not the time to escape yet."

"make!"

"All the soldiers put the silk cloth into the water and covered their mouths and noses with the wet silk cloth."

"Throw all the unlit haystacks into the palaces on both sides, leaving a passage."

"Extinguish all the fires on the right side of the front yard, chop off the wood in the palace and build a ladder as quickly as possible!"

There is another tunnel hidden in the front yard.

If Ying Chengyu's judgment is wrong and Lao Ai comes here tonight to save his life, then that tunnel is Ying Chengyu's life passage!

The eighth husband looked astonished, but did not question it. He just bowed his hand and said, "Wei!"

Su Jiao responded and rushed out.

But Ying Chengyu grabbed Su Jiao's arm and said, "Su Bugeng, just leave the matter of diverting the fire to the soldiers."

"Today, my enemy has bullied me in the face and burned my residence with fire. What do you think I should do?"

Su Jiao was stunned for a moment and then shouted angrily: "Since the enemy has attacked the door, we should naturally fight back."

"Not only must we fight back, but we must fight back even harder!"

Ying Chengqiao said coldly: "What Su Bugeng said is what I think."

"Since the enemy set fire to my residence today, the enemy's attention will be focused on me."

"I will stall for time in Yongshou's bed, and Lao Su will lead the troops to launch a counterattack!"

Su Jiao suddenly handed over his hand: "We have already prepared the holes to attack the tunnel, there is no need for you to put yourself in danger again!"

Ying Chengyu smiled confidently: "Have you forgotten how I attacked the city?"

"When it comes to playing with fire, I think I am no worse than anyone else!"

"To play with fire with me is their biggest mistake!"

Su Jiao didn't believe it.

After all, water and fire are ruthless.

Those who play with fire will eventually burn themselves!

But Ying Chengyu was so determined, and Su Jiao knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he looked at Ying Chengyu firmly: "Half an hour!"

"It only takes half an hour for me to be humble! Please withdraw from the sea of ​​fire quickly after half an hour."

"If you are humble, you will not disappoint your superior!"

Ying Chengyu bowed his hands to Su Jiao, Nao Dan and other soldiers: "Thank you all for your help."

"After this battle, I will be grateful to you!"

Naodan and other soldiers returned the salute and ran towards the right bed with full of anger.

Watching all the reinforcements rush into the bed beside him, Ying Chengyu looked at his own soldiers: "Continue to control the fire!"

Bundles of unburned hay were thrown into the hall and even into the bed on the right side.

A group of soldiers did not put out the fire, but only controlled the direction of the fire's spread.

All the sleeping halls and court halls were set ablaze with flames.

Looking from outside the palace, the flames in Yongshou's bedroom have already reached the sky!

However, only a few gates in the Yanlu area were set on fire, and it remained generally safe.

"Ahem~" Half an hour later, the eighth husband coughed and ran to Ying Chengyu, and said anxiously: "Master, even if the fire has not spread, there is too much smoke in the palace."

"It's already the appointed time. Let me protect the head of the family and rush out!"

Ying Chengyu also felt the heat in his breath burning his trachea.

But Ying Chengyu knew better that half an hour was far from enough time for Su Jiao's troops to complete their counterattack before evacuating.

Looking at the sea of ​​​​fire that intensified and even spread to Yan Road, Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Go to the front yard!"

Running along Yan Road to the front yard, Ying Chengyu saw that the fire in the front yard was indeed much smaller than the three yards behind.

Several domestic soldiers were wielding copper shovels to extinguish the flames in the knife and pen room.

Hearing that Ying Chengyu had arrived, the fool said happily in a low voice: "Master, I just went down to the tunnel to take a look. The tunnel is still safe!"

Ying Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief, "Shan!"

"Protect the ladder. If the fire suddenly rises, climb out of the palace wall immediately along the ladder." "If the guards outside the wall attack and kill you, escape immediately along the tunnel in the front yard!"

All the soldiers responded solemnly: "Wei!"

Just at this moment, Sun Xina's "panicked" cry rang out from outside Gaomen, and the corner of Ying Chengyu's mouth curled up slightly: "Put out the fire!"

……

Just as Ying Chengyu crossed Yan Road and moved to a safe area, Su Jiao and other soldiers were full of anger and crawled along the tunnel to the west.

Although they are no longer under Ying Chengyu, they still regard Ying Chengyu as their general.

Now the enemy troops are attacking our coach. As the coach's close confidants, they cannot protect the coach, and they don't even know whether the coach is alive or dead.

How can they feel better?

Even the speed of crawling in the tunnel is much faster than usual.

Suddenly, Naodan stopped at a dead end.

Touching the mark made of stone on the wall, Naodan reminded in a low voice: "We have arrived at Dazheng Palace."

The breathing sounds of all the soldiers were deliberately lowered.

Su Jiao pushed Coward away, pulled out the dagger from his leg and stood at the front of the dead end. He looked at all the robes behind him and said in a deep voice: "In this battle, there is a narrow escape from death!"

"Everyone knows what kind of person Chang'an Lord is. He will never be stingy with us."

"If you can come back alive, you will have a bright future."

"Even if you die in this battle, Lord Chang'an will not treat your family members lightly."

"If there are people who dare not die, or who feel that they cannot commit suicide before being captured, I don't blame you."

"Retreat first and don't get involved in this battle. It's the same thing if you serve your Majesty again when the war comes."

"But if you are captured because you are afraid of death, or even say something after being captured...then you three tribes will not be safe!"

Su Jiao said seriously: "Those who want to retreat, retreat quickly!"

The thick darkness made it impossible for Su Jiao to see the movements of the people behind him.

But Su Jiao didn't hear any sound of clothes rubbing against the ground.

Su Jiao unconsciously showed a smile and spoke warmly:
"Su, go first!"

After saying this, Su Jiao carefully dug the soil above his head with his dagger.

After a while, a ray of moonlight finally spilled into the tunnel along the gap.

Su Jiao sped up, cleared all the soil near the tunnel entrance, and carefully looked around.

After observing for a while, Su Jiao made a gesture to the coward, then quietly climbed out of the cave entrance, using the cover of the grass to sneak towards a group of eunuchs nearby.

Naodan and Zhang Xiao took their positions at the same time. The three of them looked at each other and nodded, then pounced like tigers and leopards.

The dagger in his right hand stabbed diagonally upward along the back of a eunuch's neck, directly smashing the man's brain. His left hand had already covered the mouth of another eunuch at the same time.

After controlling the eunuch's screams of surprise, Su Jiao pulled out the dagger with his brain still attached, and stabbed the man's neck steadily and hard!

In just four seconds, a group of eunuchs had died at the hands of Su Jiao and three others!

He pulled the five people into the grass and poured some oil around them. Naodan and Zhang Xiao moved further away, while Su Jiao returned to the entrance of the cave and knocked on the ground in rhythm.

Hearing the knocking sound, the soldiers quickly climbed out of the pit, and every five soldiers automatically formed a team.

Each warrior wore leather armor, held a long sword in his right hand, and carried a backpack on his back.

The basket on the back is filled with jars of oil!
Su Jiao also stuffed the dagger into his boots, picked up his backpack, held a long sword, looked at the more than [-] robes squatting in front of him, and lowered his voice and ordered:
"Half an hour! We only have half a quarter of an hour!"

"After half a quarter of an hour, the tunnel will be sealed. Those who fail to return will be recorded in the book. Please be kind to all your family members."

More than four hundred soldiers all raised their hands and opened a narrow-mouthed pottery vase hanging outside the backpack.

The pungent black oil slowly flowed down the bottle mouth and fell to the ground, also dripping on their bodies.

Everyone responded with actions.

If they fail to return in time, the oil on their bodies will be enough to kill them in the Dazheng Palace!
Su Jiao solemnly raised his hands and said, "May you all return in triumph!"

"out!"

The soldiers bowed their hands and saluted, and rushed out in the predetermined direction with Wu as the organization. When they encountered a palace, they sprinkled the oil in the jar onto its wooden structure.

Hundreds of people suddenly appeared in the harem, and they were walking quickly in the harem, and the volume could not be controlled at all!

After a while, a burst of barking broke the quiet night sky.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

After this burst of barking, bursts of exclamations sounded one after another.

"There are thieves!"

"Blow the horn and gather the guards!"

"Kill!"

Subconsciously looking at the direction of the noise, Su Jiao whispered: "No need to worry about the sound, speed up!"

However, as soon as the order was given, Su Jiao suddenly stopped, his eyes full of shock.

Just because he actually heard a baby crying!
"Wow~ahhh~wow!"

After a few breaths, Su Jiao looked at Nao Dan in disbelief and asked, "Did you hear that?"

The coward blinked: "Did you hear anything?"

"Ah, the general said about that crying sound?"

"I heard it, isn't it just the baby's cry?"

Su Jiao's eyes widened even more.

Why are you so relaxed?
This is the harem of Dazheng Palace, not Xianyang Palace!

There is no King of Qin in the Dazheng Palace, no previous king, and no man who is qualified to visit the women in the palace.

How could there be a baby in Dazheng Palace?
After hesitating for a while, Su Jiao whispered: "Go and have a look!"

Suppressing their footsteps, Su Jiao and others quickly approached the dormitory.

Using his dagger to pierce the silk fabric, Su Jiao saw two babies crying loudly on the soft couch. There was also a palace maid beside them who was busy coaxing the children.

Looking at the two babies, Su Jiao was greatly shocked.

It is impossible for there to be a baby in Dazheng Palace.

Then these two children in front of me... are they the babies of resentful spirits who died in vain in Dazheng Palace?

In an instant, Su Jiao felt cold all over, and his hands and feet were cold.

"Su Bugeng?" Naodan asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"

Su Jiao felt angry and shook his head: "It's okay!"

After giving the two babies one last frightened look, Su Jiao opened all the oil jars in the basket!

If you are really a resentful spirit, I will burn this prison that binds you.

I just ask you not to come looking for me at night!

Oil was sprinkled all around the palace. Su Jiao calculated the time in his mind and shouted in a low voice: "Retreat!"

Following the way they came, Su Jiao and others quickened their pace and rushed forward.

However, as soon as he arrived near the tunnel exit, Su Jiao saw many eunuchs and guards running towards here.

"The thief is here!"

"Come quickly, stop them!"

"All the thieves are running in this direction. Go and report to Zogo and ask Zogo to dispatch all the palace guards here!"

Su Jiao's eyes narrowed, he took off his backpack and threw it at an eunuch who was coming towards him.

"kill!"

While roaring, Su Jiao pierced the oil altar with his sword and penetrated deeply into the eunuch's heart.

However, after this eunuch, thousands of eunuchs, eunuchs, guards and retainers are swarming in!
