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

Chapter 90: Langtan troops enter Beijing late at night
Li Pingshan turned around and said solemnly: "Tiezhu, pass on my order, open the door."

"Yes, my lord!"

Tiezhu finally came to his senses, agreed readily, and went down the ladder to pass on the order.

After a while, a team of soldiers came out from the city gate with torches and opened the Xizhimen Gate in the middle of the night. Turichen came to the city gate, picked up the torch and waved it towards the distance.

I saw a crowd in the distance rushing over!
When he got closer, Zhuzi realized that this was a team of fully armed soldiers. Everyone was tall, agile, and expressionless. They wore black armor, had long swords hanging from their waists, and carried bows and swords on their backs. As they walked through the city gate, a fierce murderous aura came over them, causing the guards at the city gate to hold their breath.

Zhuzi stared at the group of people without blinking. There were about 2,000 people, marching in the middle of the night, but no one made any noise. This showed that these people were well-trained and tough. After the team in front entered the city, there were more than a dozen large carts behind them. The carriages were so high that you couldn't see what was inside.

With a rumble, they followed the army in front and disappeared into the city!

Seeing that everyone had entered the city, Li Pingshan quickly asked his soldiers to close the door, and then carefully said to Tulichen: "Master Tu, if there is anything else I can do for you, just tell me."

"Whoever called you, shut up! I've made a warning before. Don't say anything nonsense, or you'll lose your head. Don't blame me, Tulichen, for not telling you in advance!"

"Also, don't leave. Stay here and watch. They will leave the city after they finish their work. I'll trouble you again, Lord Li."

"That's right, Lord Tu, the errands you are doing are all well-connected. I will give the order to those who dare to gossip about me and I will deal with them first. Don't worry, I will stay here all the time and ensure that I will be there whenever you call." Li Pingshan groaned in his heart. It must not be a good thing for so many people to secretly enter the capital in the middle of the night.

Look at the murderous looks of those people and those big trucks.

Those recruits might not know, but I could be clear that they are all used to transport corpses. There are more than a dozen of them!
I don’t know how many people will be needed to accommodate this city of Beijing. Once the emperor returns, there will be a river of blood.

Li Pingshan looked at the quiet city and muttered to himself, could it be that someone is rebelling?

Not only has the prince been locked up, but the emperor has returned to the capital, and there are still people ready to make moves, and they have even mobilized these killing gods.

Forget it
It is better to have less trouble than more. Don't ask around. Just wait and see tomorrow and you will know which minister's family has the problem!
When Tulichen arrived at Prince Yong's mansion, Lang Tan's 2,000 troops had already surrounded the mansion. Tulichen came to the deputy general who led the team and said, "The emperor has ordered that all the people in the mansion, regardless of gender, be exterminated. No one should be left alive. There are hundreds of well-trained assassins inside. Don't let any of them escape."

After listening to this, the deputy general nodded coldly.

He waved his hand and ordered the soldiers behind him: "Don't spare any of them, kill them!"

A thousand men were guarding outside the palace with bows and swords drawn, while another thousand men rushed into the palace.

After a while, screams were heard one after another in the mansion, which was particularly harsh in the quiet night. There were also the sounds of fighting with weapons colliding. From time to time, bows and arrows flew out of the wall. Some nimble people escaped from the mansion, but were instantly killed by the soldiers outside. There was even the roar of muskets firing.

Fierce screams of killing continued to ring out until an hour later, when the mansion gradually quieted down. No more sounds were heard. A bloody captain came out and said, "General, everyone inside has been killed. There were about 300 warriors who fought desperately. More than 300 brothers died and more than 400 were injured."

Qian Zong probably didn't expect to suffer such a heavy loss, and explained: "Because we were in the mansion and it was dark in the middle of the night, the brothers were not familiar with the terrain and some of them were unable to move, so there were such heavy casualties."

The deputy general frowned, thinking that he was being too arrogant. "Your men have worked hard. Come out and take a rest. Replace the people outside. Let the brothers outside go in and clean up. Give orders to drag all the bodies onto the truck and take them away. Clean up the blood inside and try to deal with other traces as much as possible."

"Yes, General!" After hearing the order, Qian Zong returned to the mansion and brought out his men. Almost everyone was covered in blood, and they were supporting many wounded soldiers who had lost their combat effectiveness due to bloody heads.

Seeing this situation, Turichen's face darkened. He didn't expect that the Fourth Master's death squad had such strong combat effectiveness.

These are Lang Tan's elite troops. If they were replaced by ordinary soldiers, I'm afraid even 2,000 people would not be able to take them down.

Another team of a thousand men entered the palace and began to clean up the battlefield, carry away the corpses, fetch water to wash away the bloodstains, and pick up the broken swords and knives on the ground. They did not finish everything until the sky was slightly bright.

Tulichen and his deputy led the remaining 1,000 people and a dozen carts to Xizhimen. Tulichen breathed a sigh of relief only after he saw the entire army leave the city. He said hello to Li Pingshan, the commander of Xizhimen, and returned to the palace to report.

The next day, Kangxi had just come back from court and returned to the imperial study, where Turichen had been waiting for a long time.

Kangxi took a sip of water and asked, "Is everything done?"

"Your Majesty, last night we killed more than 600 people, including 100 palace guards, 200 servants and maids, and 300 elite warriors. Of the 2,000 elite soldiers of Lang Tan, more than 300 were killed and more than 400 were injured."

"Ok?"

"Lang Tan actually suffered nearly 800 casualties. The fourth brother's assassins are so powerful. What do they want to do by hiding such a force in the capital?"

"It's really a crime!"

"No wonder your people can only come in but never leave. They were all picked clean by Lao Si's people."

Kangxi slammed the table with a loud bang.

"The people in the Sticking Rod Office are all good-for-nothings. So many people have been hidden in the capital without anyone noticing, and you still don't know about it. Are they neglecting their duties, or have they been blinded by money? Tulichen, you have to investigate carefully for me. In addition, starting today, you have to increase the monitoring of each mansion to see if there are any assassins hidden in the mansions of other princes and ministers."

"Turichen, I don't want this to happen again, you understand." Kangxi stared at Turichen with a gloomy face like a thousand-year-old ice, his tone full of coldness.

Tulichen's face turned pale, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he knocked his head to the ground, then he said loudly, "I understand."

"Go down!"

"Hmm" Tulichen left the imperial study timidly.

Tulichen knew that the emperor was really unhappy this time. Such a thing happened under the emperor's nose in the capital, but the Sticking Rod Office didn't hear anything at all. It can be said that it was a serious dereliction of duty. The emperor was old and had not paid attention to the Sticking Rod Office for a long time. Those bastards were also slack. It seemed that he had to clean it up.

Otherwise, if something like this happens again, the emperor will have to deal with it himself.
