On the way back to the imperial study from Fengyi Palace, Li You walked heavily, thought a lot, and it was difficult to recover from that amazing fact for a while. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

That Duanmuxiong is obviously Li Mu's father-in-law, but he controls the Royal Forest Army and refuses to use it, now it seems that Duanmuxiong married his only daughter into the Rui Wangfu, who can be sure that he is not using his daughter as a raft and confusing everyone's eyes?

That's really a ruthless, young woman, her life is ruined like this.

Could it be that Duanmu Qing was brought here?

Li You was not interested in knowing.

When he returned to the imperial study, Duanmu Xiong had not yet left, seeing Li You's gloomy face, he guessed that he must have gone to Fengyi Palace, thinking that he had asked the queen mother about the beginning and end of the year, and he was probably in a complicated mood at this time, but looking at his calm face, he should have accepted it. Don't say anything more at this time, just let him calm down and think about it.

At this time, the inner attendant came into the palace to report, and Zhou Yu, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, came to see him.

The rebels were in turmoil, the imperial city was in turmoil, and it became clear why Zhou Yu entered the palace at this time.

Zhou Yu was dressed in a dark cyan military attache robe, and his sharp gaze flashed a trace of surprise when he swept over Duanmu Xiong, who was sitting on the side.

Last night, the rebels broke through the city gate and raised troops to invade the imperial city, and Zhou Yu had to pay a considerable responsibility.

If it weren't for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain with the enemy's voice in the east, how could a mere 30,000 horses easily break the city?

Li You was immediately angry when he saw Zhou Yu, "The holy capital city has been split in half, and even the Rui Wangfu has been reduced to a rebel prisoner camp, Commander Zhou, it is your responsibility to protect the palace, but the current situation is not impressive, do you have a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" ”

Before Zhou Yu could speak, Duanmu Xiong on the side snorted coldly, "Commander Zhou joined the military camp when he was a teenager, followed General Zhenyuan to fight on the battlefield, and has rich experience in marching and combat, so he will easily fall into the plan to cause the city gate to be lost, and after the rebels enter the city, where do they not choose to camp in Rui Wang's Mansion as the boundary, Rong Lao Fu speculated, whether Rui Wang was captured by the rebels or premeditated, so as to get out of the control of the imperial court, Zhou Commander is the uncle of Rui Wang, how to explain?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Li You and Zhou Yu were both shocked.

Zhou Yu's eyebrows jumped suddenly, because of his misjudgment and the loss of the city gate, he would not shirk his responsibility.

The rebels are entrenched in the Luoxia Mountains, the mountains are high and dense, the mountains are continuous, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are hidden in them, it is difficult to find them like fish in the sea, not to mention the expedition, they can only stick to the city gate to wait for work. And the West City Gate is the focus of the guard. Unexpectedly, last night, the spy flying pigeon sent back the news that there were traces of 19 flying eagles in the eastern suburbs of the city, and there were unknown people and horses gathering and moving. At this moment, the Flying Eagle Nineteen Riders actually appeared, he was very excited, and he persevered in tracking down for more than seven years, and finally caught him. He thought again, the Flying Eagle Nineteen Cavalry had appeared, could those unknown people and horses be the elite iron cavalry that disappeared overnight that year? Thinking of this, his heart beat faster with excitement. Then came the news that the East City Gate was attacked by artillery, as if to finalize the speculation in his heart, and immediately quickly transferred 50,000 Royal Forest Army from Xicheng to reinforcements.

How do you know, after the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, the west city was broken, and the rebels entered.

He suddenly understood that he had fallen into the layers of obstacles set by the other party, in other words, he was the key link for the other party to break through the imperial city, he was a chess piece, at the mercy of the other party, he was in the light, the other party was in the dark, and what annoyed him the most was that the other party might be someone he was very familiar with.

But there was another thing he had to solve at this point.

Zhou Yu fixed his mind, "The minister is negligent, the crime deserves death, please ask the emperor to allow the minister to wear the crime and make meritorious service, and order to summon the minister's father to lead 100,000 northern troops back to Beijing, and kill the rebels inside and outside." ”

"This ......"

"Your Majesty, no." Duanmuxiong said loudly, "The Northern Army is guarding the border pass, how can it return to Beijing at will, once the Northern Desert Kingdom learns about it, I am afraid that it will take the opportunity to raise troops to attack." "The Zhou family has formed an alliance with King Rui, let Zhou Da lead the troops back to Beijing, and after destroying the rebels, he will take advantage of the chaos to force the palace, and Li You has no chance of winning.

Li You naturally understands the stakes here, "Pingyang Hou is reasonable, the ambition of the wolf son of the Northern Desert Country must be guarded against." Does Master Hou have a good plan? After listening to the Queen Mother's recollection of the past, she understood Duanmuxiong's loyalty to him for so many years, and he no longer had any suspicions about Duanmuxiong.

Duanmu Xiong thought for a while, "Southern Xinjiang has been peaceful over the years, so it is better to summon half of the southern army back to Beijing to quell the chaos." ”

Southern Army?

Zhou Yu's face was cold, the Northern Desert wolf was ambitious, so is Nanliao a fuel-efficient lamp?

"But the imperial court has agreed to their conditions......" Li You frowned, after the palace change that year, it was inevitable that the southern army learned the truth about the death of the flying eagle general and became chaotic, the queen mother ordered to block the news, but the paper could not contain the fire, Feng Xuanxiao's subordinates still knew, so they refused to accept the new marshal sent by the imperial court, when he first ascended to the throne, the foundation was unstable, and the southern army reached a condition under expediency, the imperial court no longer sent someone to succeed the commander of the southern army, and the southern army swore allegiance to Tianshuo, stationed in southern Xinjiang, and never returned to Beijing.

Duanmu Xiong showed a cunning smile, "Now that the imperial city has been invaded by rebels, isn't it loyalty to let them bring troops back to Beijing to rescue?" ”

In this way, it is also reasonable, the original condition was that the imperial court would no longer send new commanders over, and now it is just for them to send half of the troops and horses to solve the urgent needs of the imperial court, which is not considered to be a breach of promise.

Li You breathed a sigh of relief, "This is reasonable. But the way to southern Xinjiang is far away, and the imperial city is in danger, can the southern army catch up? Who should I send? ”

Duanmu Xiong twisted his gray beard, "The emperor was fooled into giving Commander Zhou the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so it is better to give him this task!" ”

"Yes, Commander Zhou, this matter will be handed over to you, but is there a problem?"

Looking at the two of them singing together, Zhou Yu arched his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Moon Villa.

In the afternoon, the sun is gone, and the green leaves on the weeping begonia trees are verdant, and the purple branches are hung with small red round fruits.

"Zhou Yu secretly went to Southern Xinjiang?" Mu Ruolan leaned on the beauty couch to read a book, and there were washed purple and red cherries in a few glass cups, glowing with blood-colored soft light, very fresh and full.

Dark Wing nodded, "Duanmu Xiong is trying to branch Zhou Yu away?" ”

"In the Holy Capital City, the Marquis of Pingyang and the Zhou family are already recognized opponents, Duanmu Xiong is afraid that Zhou Yu will find out that the so-called rebels are his people, so he will put him to death, so he will take Zhou Yu away first, if I guess correctly, Zhou Yu's road will not be too smooth, maybe he will not go back forever." Putting down the book, she touched a cherry from the glass jar and put it in her mouth.

Dark Wing saw a trace of bewitching purple on his pink lips, and lowered his eyes, "What did Duanmuxiong do to make Li You suddenly listen to him like this." ”

Mu Ruolan spit out the kernel and quipped, "There are also things you can't find out?" ”

Dark Wing glared at her, Mu Ruolan smiled, put a cherry in her mouth, and her voice was a little vague, "Hey, don't stare at me, in fact, I'm complimenting you for your great powers, really." ”

"Humph!" Only villains and women are difficult to raise!

"I have a way to figure it out, do you want to know?"

"Love to say it or not."

"You're a ...... Come here with your ears attached. ”
