Chapter 712: The Wind Rises
In front of the extravagant compound, a carriage quietly stopped, and after confirming that no one was there, several people wearing cloaks entered the compound.
"Why are you here?" In the compound, a young man saw someone coming and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. This young man is none other than the second prince Liu Yi.
After saluting slightly, the group said to the second prince: "We came late at night to negotiate with the second prince on important matters. ”
The young man looked around warily and led a few people into a secret room.
"Everyone, I really can't imagine that Fang Chen is so ambitious, so that the Liu family has suffered such a tragic change. Adults who venture here late at night won't be able to swallow this breath. Liu Yi said angrily.
"Exactly, I waited for the late night adventure to come to see the attitude of the second prince, if the second prince is willing to stand up for the Liu family. We're old bones. "One of them. The crowd immediately chimed in.
What Liu Yi was waiting for was this sentence, he understood that it was time for him to put on a show and win people's hearts. Someone once said that to understand the humor of a leader, you need to have an artistic sense. At this moment, Liu Yi is a good example, he suddenly knelt down and said with tears streaming down his face: "All the adults are the ministers of the humerus in front of my father, and today my father suddenly suffered this change." How can I, a son, swallow this breath. It's just that I'm weak, and I hope you can help me. ”
The man who spoke just now hurriedly helped the second prince up: "The prince, please get up, since we can come late at night at the risk of death, we have already expressed our attitude, since the second prince is willing to fight to save the people in the world, we will not hesitate to do so." ”
Liu Yi's wonderful performance has obviously moved these stubborn ministers. Under the oil lamp, several people conspired with a serious expression to plot an earth-shattering mutiny.
In front of another mansion in the northern suburbs of Kyoto, there were also several mysterious figures knocking on the door, but the door was always closed, and the mysterious figures stood for a long time before leaving. The owner of this mansion is the current sixth prince Liu Xun.
Liu Xun was looking up at the sky in the mansion at the moment, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart. There were two little guys standing next to it. One of them couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, why don't you see a few ministers?" ”
Liu Xun sighed: "What can I do if I see it?" ”
"I heard that there were also several ministers on the second prince's side, and the second prince brought a few people into the room and discussed it for a while."
Liu Xun let out a long sigh again: "The current situation is very clear, and what the imperial brother does is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Since you can all know about the second prince's private meeting with the minister, how can Fang Chen not know? Only by returning to obedience in peace may we be able to save our lives. My life doesn't matter, but I can't help but think about the princess and hundreds of other people. ”
The little servant said movingly: "Your Royal Highness is benevolent and benevolent, and you will definitely be auspicious." ”
Liu Xun stopped talking, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. Things in the world are unpredictable, and the six princes, who were still high in the sky before, have now become fish and meat lying on the sword.
The Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace is also brightly lit. Fang Chen was urgently summoning the deputy general Xu Hu and others into the palace to meet him.
"Xu Hu, you quickly transfer 3,000 soldiers from the pioneer battalion to the palace, and you must ensure the safety of the palace. And you have to select 200 soldiers from the 3,000 soldiers to protect the safety of Ruoxi, Jing'er and Xiaoman. Other soldiers sanitize the capital in case of accidents. ”
"Yes." Xu Hu took the order and left.
The pioneer battalion was the vanguard of Fang Chen's attack on Qiangyou, after a bloody battle, and then reorganized into 20,000 people, these people are Fang Chen's descendants, from the deputy general Xu Hu down, are very loyal to Fang Chen. At this critical moment, these people should be transferred to the capital for defense.
It was an unusual night, calm on the surface, but in fact turbulent.
Walking out of the imperial study, the night was already deep, Fang Chen looked in the direction of the corner tower, a woman with an outstanding demeanor stood in the wind, as if she was full of thoughts, so that when Fang Chen approached, she was not aware at all.
"Man'er, why haven't you fallen asleep yet?" Fang Chen asked with concern.
Liu Xiaoman sighed softly and shook his head: "I can't sleep, I just want to blow the wind." ”
Fang Chen gently hugged Xiao Man in his arms: "Such a big change happened today, you feel uncomfortable, in fact, I didn't expect things to be like this." ”
"You don't need to explain, the initiator of this incident is the eldest imperial brother, and the one who killed my father is also the eldest imperial brother, I won't blame you." Xiao Man lay in Fang Chen's arms and said meekly, people's hearts are also very related to the changes in the environment, and now there is no shadow of the unruly princess on Xiao Man's body.
Fang Chen touched Liu Xiaoman's head and gently kissed him on the forehead.
"Brother Tian, I just want to beg you, treat my imperial brothers and them well, and don't kill them all." Liu Xiaoman begged.
Fang Chen looked at Liu Xiaoman and said gently: "As long as they are content with their duties, I won't be so ruthless." ”
Liu Xiaoman nodded: "Thank you." ”
"Let's go, go sleep for a while, you're tired all day." Fang Chen grabbed Liu Xiaoman and entered the dormitory.
Around the corner not far away, a pair of cold eyes were staring at them. Fang Chen's brows moved, now that his spiritual strength was increasing day by day, his divine sense had also reached a very keen realm, so he could naturally sense it at once, but he didn't want to alarm him. He wanted to see what this man was trying to do. He wanted to see how many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods there were in the capital.
Before dawn, a group of people quietly marched in the direction of the palace. Walking in front of the team was the second prince Liu Yi, as well as several ministers. The group of about 20,000 men, all of them neatly armored and armed, headed in the direction of the palace with solemn expressions. The reason why the second prince dared to openly confront Fang Chen was because he held this trump card in his hand. More than 20,000 people are the troops guarding the capital, and the command of this force is in the hands of the commander of the nine gates of the capital, and this commander of the nine gates of the capital is also in the secret room, one of those mysterious figures, and now he is also by Liu Yi's side, obviously the person next to the second prince. Although Fang Chen was the generalissimo of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, he only mastered two-thirds of the Heavenly Dragon Empire's troops. The rest of the military power was still in the hands of the emperor, especially the command of the troops garrisoning the capital did not belong to him.
Not only that, part of the command of the forbidden army in the palace is now in the hands of Xu Hu now, but because Liu Yi had already had the intention of usurping the throne before, he secretly bought off some of the leaders of the forbidden army, so he can mobilize at least a thousand people in the palace. It is precisely because of these two trump cards that the second prince will fight so openly. A bloody storm is coming.
