Goldfinger of the Heavens

Chapter 153 The Royal Treasure
"The Great Song Dynasty is over this time. The emperor and those ministers are really stupid enough to put their hope on the kindness of the Jurchen." Looking at the information in his hand, Huang Chong laughed wantonly.

"Young master, shall we still go to Bianjing?" Wang Hu asked. Compared with a year ago, Wang Hu displayed a more sturdy aura, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"Go, why don't you go." Huang Chong said with a twitch of his mouth, "Of course we should seize this kind of good opportunity."

Previously, when talking about the Song and Jin Dynasties, Wang Hu would still worry about the country and the people, worry about border wars, and worry about the failure of the Song Dynasty, but this time, Wang Hu couldn't see any worries. It wasn't that he was brainwashed by Huang Chong, but that he I was completely disappointed with the Song court, not only Wang Hu, but also many people in the Song Dynasty.

This matter has to start from the last time Jin soldiers besieged Bianjing. Song and Jin reached peace talks, and Song Dynasty satisfied Jin's appetite at a great price. This kind of thing has happened before.

But this time is different, perhaps in order to show the sincerity of his peace talks, after the Jin soldiers withdrew from the Yellow River, Song Ting ordered all Qin Wangjun to leave Bianjing and return to their homes. Suffering from all kinds of exploitation and oppression by the local government, there has been a large number of non-combat attrition, not only the Qin Wang army, but also the situation of the Zhong family army of the general Zhong Shi Dao is not much better.

Soon after, General Zhong Shidao died of depression, Li Gang was transferred to Jiangxi, far away from the center of power, and all the main fighters in the court were cleaned up.

Song Ting's approach really chilled the world.

This time when the Jin soldiers went south, Song Ting’s approach was even more chilling. Zhao Huan issued an imperial decree requesting that no so-called "King Qin Army" be formed in various places, otherwise they will be punished as rebellion. If people from the Jianghu do not have reasonable procedures, they cannot enter Bianjing. Otherwise shoot to kill.

Emperor Zhao Huan made up his mind this time. He almost didn’t resist if he wanted to negotiate peace with Jin Bing. It's just to cut some land and lose some money.

Wanyan Zonghan of the West Road went south from Datong in early September, and took Taiyuan again in less than half a month; Wanyan Zongwang of the East Road was even faster, and took Zhongshan and Zhending in less than ten days.

At this time, the situation seems to have eased on the surface, because the two armies did not continue to go south, but stationed in place. The Song court thought that the other party's sincerity had moved the Kingdom of Jin, so they worked harder and even voluntarily dismissed. Part of Bianjing's army was captured. At this moment, the huge Bianjing has less than 10 defenders.

But the actual situation is that Jin Bing is just resting and recuperating, waiting for backup supplies, and at the same time giving the Song Dynasty a little hope, and the two sides are arguing.

In November, the Jin soldiers who had completed their training launched another attack. This time, the cities along the way simply did not resist and surrendered directly. Luoyang, Yong'an, Zhengzhou, Daming, Kaide, Huaizhou and other important places all surrendered without a fight. It also fell into the hands of the Jin soldiers, and the most elite Western Army of the Song Dynasty was completely stopped in Shaanxi, unable to advance eastward.

After all the layout was over, a total of 15 gold soldiers from the East and West Route Army surrounded Bianjing, completely cutting off the connection between Bianjing and the outside world, and there were only [-] forbidden troops in Bianjing city.

Huang Chong entered the city of Bianjing and entered the palace on December 12, two days before the Jin soldiers surrounded Bianjing.

Royal Palace.

Because Bianjing has been surrounded by golden soldiers, everyone can feel that something is not good. Although Zhao Huan seems to be very confident on the surface, anyone in the palace can feel his guilty conscience. , the Great Song Dynasty really might not be able to pass, whether you want to believe it or not, this is a fact, and the atmosphere in the palace is quite strange.

Many eunuchs and maids in the palace are planning whether they should slip away, otherwise their fate will be very miserable when the golden soldiers capture the palace in the future. There is chaos in the palace. If the reigning emperor is strong enough, this kind of The chaos was overwhelming, but Zhao Huan himself was also very frightened, and couldn't care less about it.

The chaotic palace gave Huang Chong an excellent opportunity. Huang Chong sneaked into the palace through Wang Bao, who had already been lurking in the palace.

As early as half a year ago, Huang Chong began to lay out the layout. In the past half a year, about a hundred of his subordinates entered Bianjing City through various channels and settled down.

There are nearly [-] eunuchs in the huge palace, who are in charge of various things in the palace. Huang Chong disguised himself as a new eunuch in the imperial dining room, and hypnotized all the eunuchs around him with the "soul-moving method" to ensure his safety.

In a broad sense, the imperial dining room is not only responsible for the meals of the emperor and concubines, it can be said that most of the meals in the palace are taken care of by the imperial dining room, but the specifications are different. With this special status, Huang Chong can walk in the palace openly anywhere, because this is not the world of Xianxia, ​​everyone has to eat.

Naturally, what Huang Chong cared most about was the royal treasury. At first, he didn't dare to approach it. After all, there were innate masters guarding it.

The royal treasury is an important place for the royal family. It collects all kinds of rare treasures in the world. The whole treasury is made of fine steel. The wall is three feet thick and built by skilled craftsmen. The treasury is airtight. There is only one door The gate can be entered and exited, and the key to open this gate is in the hands of the emperor.

In addition to the hardware facilities, the surrounding area of ​​the treasure house is guarded by ten second-rate eunuchs and above at any time. The foremen of these guards are two inborn old eunuchs. Without the emperor's order, no one can approach it.

"What is the origin of those two old eunuchs in the royal treasure house?"

"They were there when I entered the palace, and it has been 63 years."

Huang Chong hypnotized a senior old eunuch who doesn't know martial arts, hoping to get some useful information from him.

"Tell me more specifics."

"These eunuchs only listen to the orders of the officials. Even the Supreme Emperor can't order them. It can be said that they are the most loyal to the officials in the world."

"Then how to enter the treasure house?" Huang Chong asked.

"There needs to be an official decree and a key to open the treasure house, otherwise no one will be able to enter."

"Do you know where the key to the treasure house is?" Huang Chong asked, he didn't have any hope, he just asked casually.

"I know." The old eunuch said.

"Ah... where is it?" Huang Chong was taken aback for a moment, and then asked in surprise.

"In the hands of the Supreme Emperor."

"You mean? In the hands of the Supreme Emperor?"

"Yes."

"what happened?"

Originally, Huang Chong thought that he could hear a big palace fight from the mouth of the old eunuch, but the reason he told him was...
