The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 89 'The Yin soldiers are passing through?'

"The sound of drums? Why would someone be beating drums in the middle of the night?" Kangxi asked in confusion.

Tulichen saw that Kangxi had forgotten some of the previous events.
He explained, "Your Majesty, do you remember the last time I was ordered to escort Xiao Guoxing to Ningguta overnight? Xiao Guoxing was shot to death by a three-load strong bow. The sound of the bowstring in the wilderness at night was like the sound of a drum."

"I dare to guess that on the night of Jiuyou Beile's death, the servants heard the sound of drums, which was the sound of bowstrings."

"You mean, it's possible that it was done by one person?" Kangxi was shocked and asked solemnly.

"I am not sure, but there is such a possibility. I have checked the wound of the Ninth Prince and found that it is very similar to Xiao Guoxing's wound. It seems to be caused by the same bow and arrow and technique. However, the arrow was taken away by someone, so I am not sure."

In his heart, Turichen was actually certain that the Ninth Prince had died at the hands of the same person.

However, Turichen knew that the matter was of great importance and might involve the Fourth Master, so he did not dare to say it too affirmatively, giving Kangxi room to maneuver.

But I believe that the emperor is clear about what I want to express.

"well!."

Kangxi sighed, sat down on the couch dejectedly, with a sad and upset look on his face, and murmured to himself: "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, what can you do?"

"Whether it is him or not, I cannot allow such behavior!" After a moment of loss, Kangxi stood up and said with a firm and sharp look.

"Turichen!"

Tulichen lowered his body even lower and replied respectfully: "The servant is here."

"I have arranged for his family to attend a banquet at Concubine De's palace tonight. You will send an order to Lang Tan outside the city to transfer 2,000 troops to the capital to get the job done tonight. Tomorrow morning, I want people to think that nothing has happened. Can you do it?"

"I will obey your orders, and there will not be any mistakes!"

Kangxi shouted loudly: "Li Dequan!"

Li Dequan opened the door and walked in. Before he could speak, he heard Kangxi say, "Li Dequan, you pick two hundred palace maids and eunuchs from the palace and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and one hundred guards, and send them to Prince Yong's Mansion tomorrow."

"Turichen, you arrange for the people from the sticking rod department to go in. From now on, I want to know every move of the Fourth Master's mansion."

"嗻"

Li Dequan and Turichen agreed.

"Go! I'm tired and want to rest."

"I'm leaving!" Turichen stood up carefully and left the imperial study. Li Dequan also arranged for his men to do their work.

Kangxi had a solemn expression on his face as he sat quietly in the imperial study, ignoring the memorials on the desk in front of him. Thinking of his sons, he felt angry and sad.

In the past, I had turned a blind eye to their attempts to win over ministers and do some small things. Even if I knew about it, I would not ask about it. I did not expect that they would become so violent just after I left the capital during this southern tour. They even fought to the point of life and death, with no blood relationship at all.

If I let it go on like this, before I can live forever, those princes will fight each other to pieces. If I don't shock them severely, they won't know what it means to be a king, a minister, a father, or a son. They all think they are old, their teeth are weak, and they can't chew meat anymore.

He does not take himself, the emperor, seriously and acts without restraint and lawlessness.

At night, just after midnight, Li Saner, a soldier on the Xizhimen tower, said to his companions, "Zhuzi, help me keep an eye on it while I go pee over there."

"Brother San, please come back soon. It's late at night and the weather is cold. I want to sleep in the doorway." Tiezhu had just arrived and was a newcomer. He was assigned to take night shifts. But after a few months, he had become familiar with this simple and repetitive work. He knew that Li Saner must be sleepy and wanted to rest.

Li Saner said, "Okay, I will come in the second half of the night."

"Third brother, you said the same thing the night before last. As a result, I stayed on the tower all night and almost froze to death."

"Don't worry, if I don't come, you can just go and wake me up, isn't that okay?"

The city of Beijing has been peaceful for more than a hundred years, guarded by several generations, and nothing has ever happened. Most of the soldiers just strolled around on the city wall and then went to sleep.

Only two people were left to guard the night to prevent some relatives and friends from entering and leaving the city at night and being unable to find anyone.

But at Xizhimen, which had never had any problems before, when Li Saner just left, Zhuzi heard the sound of a large group of horses marching in the wilderness outside the city gate.

Zhuzi was startled and stood at the edge of the city wall, opened his eyes wide and looked into the wilderness. But it was still pitch black and no shadow could be seen.

The sounds that kept coming into the ears made people feel that the people and horses were getting closer and closer.

Although there were many people, the sound of footsteps did not feel chaotic at all. Instead, it sounded like the orderly marching of an army, occasionally mixed with the sound of horse hooves.

Zhuzi looked hard into the dark distance and saw a figure slowly emerging. Zhuzi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that an army was marching at night. When they knocked on the door, he would notify the gate guard Li Pingshan and let him handle it.

I originally thought that someone would come forward and knock on the door, but unexpectedly, the large group of people stopped when they were within an arrow's distance.

In the quiet wilderness in the middle of the night, the sound of a large group of people marching suddenly sounded, which was frightening enough, but the sound stopped abruptly and disappeared without a trace, which made people even more frightened. The figures in the distance stood quietly in place, motionless, which made Zhuzi wonder if he had heard it wrong or seen it wrong.

Who would stand in the wilderness in the middle of the night, not talking or moving?

"Could it be that the Yin and Yang soldiers are passing through?"

Thinking of the ghost story that Old Man Sun had told some time ago, Zhuzi's body trembled with fear, the hair on his body stood up, his legs trembled, he swallowed his saliva, and his teeth began to chatter.
Zhuzi closed his eyes tightly in fear, then tried to open them wide and looked into the darkness in the distance. Yes, there was indeed a blurry figure, standing there like a forest, motionless.

Could it really be a ghost?
Zhuzi was frightened and panicked. No matter what, he called Li Saner first and asked him to come and take a look.

"ah!."

As soon as he turned around, two figures appeared behind him and Zhuzi screamed in fright.

'Poof.'

He sat down on the ground with a thud. Looking carefully, one of them was Li Pingshan, the guard who should have been sleeping inside the city gate at this time, and the other was a tall and burly man whom Zhuzi did not recognize.

"Why are you yelling in the middle of the night?" Li Pingshan scolded Zhuzi, then turned around and looked at the other person next to him.

The other man ignored the nervous Pillar, came to the edge of the city wall, and looked at the figure in the distance.

Li Pingshan bent over with a smile on his face: "Master Tu, is this person outside yours?"

Tulichen looked at the figure in the distance, picked up a handwritten note, handed it to Li Pingshan, and said seriously: "Master Li, open the door."

Li Pingshan carefully took the imperial edict, looked at it carefully in the light of the torch on the gate tower, and then respectfully handed it back with both hands: "I obey your order!"
