"The fifth minister shouldn't be able to enter the city, so he will stay in the barracks tonight, and it's not too late to open the door early tomorrow morning and go back!"

Fifth Qi thought about it, if he didn't live in the barracks, he would really have to sleep in the wilderness, so he readily agreed.

"Xiang Gong must not have dinner before he is in a hurry to go out of the city, so he will arrange for someone to prepare the meal!"

Gao Changhe was really kind, not only solved the accommodation problem for Fifth Qi, but also was afraid that he would be hungry, so in a moment, a handyman in the army brought a pot of roast mutton and a pot of scones.

This is the standard meal in the Shenwu Army, although it is coarse, it is better than being full.

Gao Changhe picked up a flatbread and rolled up a piece of mutton and chewed it happily. In the eyes of Fifth Qi, although this kind of behavior is vulgar, he is not disgusted at this time and place, and even changed his prejudice against vulgar military men in the past.

With a rumbling in his stomach, Fifth Qi didn't hesitate anymore, and followed Gao Changhe's appearance to roll the bread and put the meat in his mouth and chew it.

After three flatbreads, the fifth Qi was already full, but Gao Changhe seemed to be very hungry, and he stopped eating three more pancakes in a row.

"The last general is rude to the face, which makes the minister laugh!"

Fifth Qi praised it for the first time:

"In this way, the true colors of the general are revealed!"

When the two had dinner, it was already dark, and there was a sound of fighting in the barracks, and the fifth Qi knew that the rules in the army were strict, so he planned to go to the bedroom arranged for him by Gao Changhe to rest.

A military official hurried in and whispered a few words in Gao Changhe's ear.

Gao Changhe's complexion changed greatly, and he hurriedly looked at Fifth Qi.

"Let the fifth prime minister say that the fire in Chang'an City is on fire, there should be someone making trouble!"

Hearing this, Fifth Qi slapped his thigh, and his voice was nervously deformed.

"This is bad, Emperor Daxing's Zi Palace is still in Xingqing Palace, if it falls into the hands of thieves, the consequences will be unimaginable"

But Gao Changhe Dan is different.

"The Prime Minister's family is also in the city, if it is robbed...... It's unimaginable. ”

He also slapped his thigh in the same way as Fifth Qi.

The Fifth Qi comforted:

"Don't worry, the princess took her sisters and children to Luoyang after the prime minister left Beijing, which has just stabilized and needs someone to inspect. Therefore, they can't catch the prime minister's family. ”

"W-how do I not know this?"

Gao Changhe, as a high-ranking general in the Shenwu Army, didn't know about it, so he was very surprised.

"Originally, I was traveling secretly, but I was afraid of having a negative impact in Chang'an City, but I didn't expect it to be crooked!"

Fifth Qi explained while rejoicing.

This time, without the urging of the Fifth Qi, Gao Changhe couldn't bear it for a long time, and on the one hand, he ordered people to go to the Jingzhao Camp of the Shenwu Army in the north of the city to report to Lu Qi, and on the other hand, he ordered the whole army to enter a combat state, ready to attack the city and quell the rebellion at any time.

Before attacking the city, he also had to get in touch with Lu Qi in order to act in unison.

After all the arrangements were prepared, Gao Changhe seemed to think of something again, and said to Fifth Qi:

"Fortunately, the fifth minister is anxious about state affairs and went out of the city, otherwise he would definitely be in the hands of thieves at this moment!"

Under Gao Changhe's reminder, Fifth Qi thought of his own safety, although he came out, his family and children were still in the city.

If the thieves make a rebellion, the first thing is to attack the mansion of the important ministers and control the relevant characters.

I can't help but feel really sad when I think of the danger my family may face.

……

In Chang'an City, the person who set the first fire was Dugu Kaiyuan, and after seeing Cui Guangyuan, he made the decision to act overnight. In fact, she has been preparing for this moment for nearly a month, but the most critical person does not let go, so she can only lobby patiently.

Now that the Nanya Forbidden Army controlled by Cui Guangyuan is no longer helping that bullshit court, everything has become clear.

First of all, the Nanya Forbidden Army took over the defense of the city gate in charge of the general of the prison gate, and then Dugu Kaiyuan organized the recruited homeless people to go to the street, they first set fire to the bell tower and drum tower, and then rushed to Xingqingfang.

There is not only the Zigong Palace of Emperor Daxing, but also the mansions of many important ministers.

In addition, Dugu Kaiyuan divided his troops and personally rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion with another wave of people, the current status of the Prime Minister's Mansion is more important than the political affairs hall, as long as it captures here, it is equivalent to cutting off the head of the Shenwu Army.

It is the shooting of people and horses first, the capture of thieves and the capture of kings, and the end of the Prime Minister's Mansion in one nest, the Shenwu Army no longer has a systematic command, and can only fight separately, and even fight each other to attack.

However, he soon found that he had thought the problem simple, and the defense of the Prime Minister's Mansion was much stronger than it seemed, and the sergeant guarding it repelled several charges with a strong crossbow.

After all, the homeless people are not regular troops, they have no experience in field sieges, and they rarely see blood.

The tremendous power of the crossbow caused an incomparably powerful deterrent to the homeless people, and for a time no one dared to charge and attack.

In the end, Dugu Kaiyuan gave a heavy reward, and those who rushed into the prime minister's mansion for everything were rewarded with a thousand gold.

There will be brave men under the heavy reward, and many people began to rush to the prime minister's mansion at the risk of being shot.

The purpose of Dugu Kaiyuan is to consume the arrows and morale of the defenders in the Xiangfu, once the siege is long, it is unknown that the people inside will collapse without a fight.

At the same time as the attack on the Prime Minister's Mansion was frustrated, the attack on Xingqing Palace to snatch the Daxing Emperor Zi Palace also suffered a setback, and the palace walls of Xingqing Palace were so tall that it was even more difficult to attack by the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Previously, Dugu Kaiyuan had bought off the gatekeeper general of Xingqing Palace, but tonight for some reason, after the siege signal was issued, there was no opening of the city inside. Could it be that in addition to haste, the gatekeeper general is not on duty tonight?

In addition to the Xingqing Palace and the Prime Minister's Mansion, the progress in the rest of the places can be described as very gratifying, less than midnight, the unveiling of the homeless splash has spread throughout the northern Chang'an City, almost all the important officials have been pulled out, gathered together, in order to facilitate the disposal at any time.

After attacking the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, Dugu Kaiyuan ordered the siege to continue, and personally led people to capture the Fifth Qi.

This nasty fellow has caused him a lot of trouble, and he will be caught tonight and then humiliated.

But after he brought people over, he pounced, and Fifth Qi didn't go home at all, and the people who went to the political hall didn't catch this guy.

Dugu Kaiyuan gritted his teeth, and then received retribution one after another, suffering heavy losses outside Xingqing Palace and Xiangfu.

He began to scold Cui Guangyuan, the old fox, again, and obviously agreed, but he still stood still and watched the fire from the other side.

Wei Wei, who had always sworn that he would send troops to help him, also did not move, and half of the soldiers who promised to be transferred did not appear, and the streets were full of homeless people and splashes organized by him.

These people are not regular soldiers and are not subject to military law, and after they are released, it will be a serious disaster for Chang'an City.

After getting out of control, the thieves began to fight the ideas of ordinary people, and successively captured many weakly defended fangs and looted property.

Dugu Kai doesn't care about this, what he wants is Chang'an City to be in chaos, as long as Chang'an City is in chaos, those old guys who are hiding behind the scenes will naturally jump out and kill this bullshit court for him.

But after a lot of trouble in the middle of the night, Dugu Kaiyuan suddenly found that all the people who had agreed to send troops were collectively silent, Cui Guangyuan's Nanya Forbidden Army did not send a single soldier to help, and Wei Wei did not order the defenders of Xingqing Palace to stop resisting.

Emperor Daxing's Zigong Palace has not yet been captured, and many plans have not been realized.

In the Wei Mansion, Wei Jiansu had a calm face, Wei Wei knelt on the ground, and the air was cold and almost solidified.

There was a lot of commotion outside, and several times some rebels tried to rush into the house, but they were all driven out by the house slaves in the house.

Fortunately, the rebels were quite restrained after receiving Dugu Kaiyuan's warning and did not excessively harass Wei Fu, but if this situation continues, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents.

The colder Wei Jiansu's face became, the more angry he became, and after a long time, he finally sighed.

"Hundreds of lives of the Wei family have been gambled by you, do I still have a choice? Take it, see who will listen to you Tian Chengsi or Gao Changhe!"

The seal letter was thrown on the ground, and it contained the warrant for the transfer of troops from the province and the prime minister's government.

The warrant of the Prime Minister's Mansion had not been returned before, and now it was counted by Wei Wei. He got up from the ground and immediately sent people outside the city to meet Tian Chenghe, the general of the Jingzhao Battalion of the Shenwu Army, and Gao Changhe, the new military captain.

As a result, Tian Chengsi received the order, but he did not move. Gao Changhe directly cut off the heads of the people sent to send the order.

The situation is clear at a glance, the opposition is opposed, the wait-and-see is wait-and-see, and Wei Wei has no idea.

Seeing that the sky was bright, a team of guards escorted a carriage straight to the Huaiyang Palace, and the person who was escorted was the old minister Cui Lian, who had been recuperating at home for a long time.

Wei Wei always hoped that Cui Jian could come forward to take the lead, but he never agreed, who would have thought that he would come out in person today.

Cui Lian was dressed in a purple robe, kneeling outside the gate of Huaiyang Palace, and chanted:

"The minister respectfully asks the prince to succeed the Tang Emperor, put things right, and stabilize the people's hearts!"

The guards shouted in unison, and soon the sound shook the entire neighborhood.

Wei Wei was overjoyed, as soon as Cui Jian came out, the crown prince Li Xi would no longer hide behind the scenes, as long as the prince inherited the unification, all actions became justified.

Sure enough, the gate of Huaiyang Palace's mansion opened, and Li Xi appeared in front of everyone in a robe and crown.

Wei Wei was surprised and delighted, this was obviously not a haste to do it, but why did Li Xi hide it from him?

Li Xi personally stepped forward to help Cui Lian.

"Hurry up, let's go to Xingqing Palace now, recapture our father's Zizi Palace, and avenge our father's hatred!"

The young man's eyes were filled with tears, he gritted his teeth, he had borne too much shame and hatred, and he had endured it so far, and he could finally wash away his shame.

Li Xi, Cui Lian, Wei Wei and others rushed to Xingqing Palace under the protection of the guards, and on the way, Li Xi gave an edict to Jingzhao Yin Cui Guangyuan, ordering him to send the Nanya Forbidden Army to assist in attacking Xingqing Palace.

After Cui Guangyuan received the edict of the new emperor, he no longer waited, and immediately ordered all the forbidden troops of the Nanya under his command to go to Xingqing Palace and Xiangfu respectively.
