"Chang Xi...... No, Emperor Hui's Chang Beauty, I'm still thinking about a question these days, Chang Beauty, you said, you only love Liu Ying in this life, so what am I? In fact, I can even accept your identity, your purpose of approaching me, as long as you say that you have me in your heart, I will still let you return to my side without hesitation, you approached me to avenge the revenge of the year, you used my feelings, and even did not hesitate to exchange your life for my trust. You hate Lu Pheasant, I hate it too, and if I were you, I would do the same. But obviously, you don't plan to choose the same path with me, every time I tell you that you will stay with each other for the rest of your life, you must also think it's ridiculous, because you have long planned to commit suicide to find Liu Ying after the world is stable, right? ”

Every word Liu Zhang said, Chang Xi heard it like a pinprick in his heart.

It's not that Chang Xi doesn't plan to choose to grow old with him, but she can't choose, she is a living dead in her life, and it is impossible for her to stay with anyone for a long time.

"I will never repay you for your kindness to me, but I don't want to lie to you, I do love Liu Ying deeply, she is the man I love with my life."

Liu Zhang's forehead was bruised: "What about me?" Am I a passerby in your life?! ”

You are the man I will protect with my life......

But Chang Xi didn't say this, she kept silent, afraid of talking to Liu Zhang about her again.

"Master Hou, it is imperative that your mind should be on national affairs, your soldiers and horses are abundant, and you have mastered a part of the troops in Chang'an City, which is enough to confront the Lu family, but it is absolutely impossible to use Liu Xiang hard, he deceived the king of Langya, such an unpopular forcible practice will inevitably cause trouble in the future. If Master Hou reminds Zhou Bo and Chen Ping at this time and shifts your attention to the side of Acting King Liu Heng, it will probably be beneficial to you in the future. ”

Liu Zhang stared at Chang Xi's expression of a serious statement, and felt that his heart was about to be entangled.

"Chang Xi, are you risking your life to say these things to me because you are acting on behalf of the country, or is it just because you are worried about me?"

Chang Xi raised his eyes and desperately locked the tears in his eyes: "I'm just a woman and don't understand big things, but I hope you don't lose your way because of your hatred for me, you are a family person, you have a daughter Wanqing, and a virtuous wife, even if the woman who will accompany you in the future is not me, I also hope that you will do well, Zhulu Fengbo, if anyone takes a wrong step this time, there will be no place to die!" ”

Liu Zhang staggered his back and turned over, his arm propped up on the side of the desk, and said softly, "You go." ”

Chang Xi knelt on his knees and moved over, grabbing the corner of Liu Zhang's clothes: "I beg you, can you consider my proposal?" ”

Liu Zhang took a deep breath and roared, "Someone! ”

Two guards with knives came in outside the door, and they dragged Chang Xi away, and Liu Zhang didn't see her reluctant look and desperate eyes in the end.

"Drag this woman out of the palace for me, from now on, even if she is dead, she will not be able to step into my Zhu Xuhou Mansion for half a step! Get lost! ”

……

The movement of Liu Xiang, the king of Qi, raising troops to the west was too big, so in the end, Xiangguo Lu Chan still knew the news, and Lu Chan ordered the baby to lead the troops to fight overnight.

Guan Ying led the troops to Xingyang, but he was not stupid, he thought in his heart, the Lu family held a heavy army in Guanzhong, planned a rebellion, and wanted to replace the Liu family to establish himself as the emperor, and now if he defeated the Qi army and went back to report to the imperial court, it would be tantamount to helping the Lu family rebel.

So after thinking about it again, he decided to settle down in Xingyang, and found an opportunity to meet Liu Xiang, the king of Qi.

He expressed his thoughts very sincerely, saying that he wanted to join forces with them, quietly wait for the Lu clan to initiate chaos, and then he could take advantage of the loophole and raise troops together to eliminate the Lu clan.

Therefore, Liu Xiang, the king of Qi, decided to retreat to the western border of Qi first and wait for the opportunity to jointly send troops.

Therefore, everything is destined by heaven, but everything is made by people's ideas, and Liu Xiang may not have thought that the decision he made at that time to garrison Qi and wait for the opportunity would make him miss the emperor's throne.

Lü Lu and Lü Chan have been planning to rebel for a long time, but the imperial court is afraid of Zhou Bo and Liu Zhang, and the imperial court is also afraid of the armies of Qi and Chu, and is worried that Guan Ying will betray them, so they want to let Guan Ying fight the Qi army first and then make a move, so they have always been in a state of hesitation.

Qu Zhou Hou Li Shang was old and sick, and his son Li Ji had a very good relationship with Lu Lu.

Zhou Bo no longer had military power in his hands at that time, so he aimed the finger at Liji, a gap that could be used. Zhou Bo went to Chen Ping's house overnight, and the two were planning.

In the end, an agreement was reached, so immediately after that, he sent someone to kidnap Li Shang and asked his son Li to send it to deceive Lu Lu.

Li Ji sent to Lü Lu according to Zhou Bo's original words: "The world was fought by Gao Gao and Empress Lü together, nine people surnamed Liu were made princes and kings, and three people surnamed Lu were established as princes and kings, these have been agreed upon by the ministers through consultation, and the matter has been announced to the princes of the world, and the princes have also agreed." But now that the queen mother has died, the emperor is young, and you wear the seal of Zhao State, you don't hurry up to defend the fiefdom, but you serve as a general and lead the army to stay in Beijing, these actions have aroused the suspicion of the ministers and princes.

Why don't you return the seal to the imperial court, hand over the army to the Taiwei, and then ask the king of Liang, Lu Chan, to return the seal of Xiangguo, and then you and the king of Liang will make a covenant with the ministers and return to their fiefdoms. In this way, the army of Qi will be withdrawn, the ministers will be at ease, and you can also sit back and relax and be the princes and kings who are at ease thousands of miles away, which is really the well-being of future generations! ”

In the end, Lü Lu still believed Liji's words, and agreed to his plan, wanting to hand over the army to the Taiwei, so he sent someone to tell Lü Chan and the elders of the Lü clan about this plan.

But everyone has different opinions on this and has been hesitant to make a decision.

In the early morning of the tenth day of the ninth month, Cao Yao, the Marquis of Pingyang, who was exercising the power of the imperial historian, went to Lu Chan's house to seek work with him. Lang Zhong ordered Jia Shou to send an envoy to Qi to return.

After hearing about this, Shu Luo Lu said: "Why didn't the king go to seal the country earlier, even if he wants to go now, will he still go?" So he told Lu Chan in detail about the alliance between Guan Ying and Qi and Chu and wanted to destroy the Lu family, and persuaded Lu Chan to leave immediately and return to the palace to defend it.

Jia Shou's words, Cao Chuang heard a lot, so he hurried back and told Chen Ping and Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo tried to enter the northern army camp but was blocked by the guards, Xiang Pinghou was in charge of the emperor's runes, and Zhou Bo asked him to enter the northern army camp with the runes in his hand, pretending to be a captain, with the emperor's permission. Before this, Zhou Bo had ordered Mr. Li Ji and Mr. Liu Jie to persuade Lu Lu that the emperor had handed over the northern army to the guard of the Taiwei, and wanted you to enrich it, you should quickly hand over the general seal and leave, otherwise a catastrophe is coming.

Lü Lu thought that Li Ji would not deceive himself, so he removed the seal and handed it to Liu Jie, and Zhou Bo commanded the northern army.

So when Zhou Bo entered the Northern Army, Lü Lu had already left Chang'an City.

Zhou Bo entered the camp gate and gave an order in the army: "Support the Lü family's exposed right arm, support Liu's exposed left arm." ”

All the officers and men in the army showed their left arms, so Lieutenant Zhou Bo was able to command the Northern Army. But the Southern Army had not yet taken control.

Therefore, Liu Zhang was transferred by Chen Ping to assist Zhou Bo, and Zhou Bo sent Liu Zhang to stick to the military gate, and sent Cao Yao to tell the commander of the Praetorian Guard's guard that Lu Chan would never be allowed to step into the palace gate.

Lu Chan didn't know the news that Lu Lu had left the Northern Army, so he entered Weiyang Palace and prepared to start a rebellion.

Lu Chan came to the palace gate to make money, but was blocked by the Praetorian Guards and could not enter, so he had to collect it outside the palace gate first.

Cao Yao was afraid that he would not be able to enter the palace when Lu Chan entered the palace, so he quickly whipped Zhou Bo and told Zhou Bo that Zhou Bo was still afraid that he would not be able to defeat Zhu Lu, so he did not dare to publicly announce his intention to destroy the Lu clan, so he said to Liu Zhang, hurry up and enter the palace to protect the emperor, Liu Zhang asked to give him soldiers, Zhou Bo transferred more than 1,000 people to him, Liu Zhang entered the gate of Weiyang Palace, and saw Lu Chan guarding outside the palace.

At that time, it was already evening, and Liu Zhang led the army to attack Lü Chan.

After a fight, Lu Chan finally fled. At this time, a strong wind was blowing in the sky, and Lü Chan's army was in disarray, so no one dared to come forward to fight, Liu Zhang and others chased Lü Chan, and finally killed Lü Chan in the thatched house of Langzhong Mansion in the Han Palace.

After Liu Zhang killed Lü Chan, he was sent by the emperor to hold the emperor's runes to come to comfort, Liu Zhang wanted to seize the runes, but the confessors refused to let go, Liu Zhang and the confessors got into the same carriage, with the emperor's runes, drove at a gallop, and killed Lu Gengshi, the captain of Changle.

After Liu Zhang came back, he drove into the Northern Army and reported to Zhou Bo, Zhou Bo was very happy to bow down to Liu Zhang, congratulated and said: "What I was worried about before was only Lu Zhan, but now Lu Zhan has been ambushed, and the sky has been decided!" ”

So he sent many people to search for the people of the Lu clan, and beheaded them regardless of age.

In this way, a battle hidden in Weiyang Palace finally began......

Most of the soldiers who led the troops had a grudge against the Lu family, so like wild beasts, they desperately rushed into the Weiyang Palace, and all the palace maids and chamberlains who could see them slashed their swords fiercely at them.

The sound of fighting, screaming, and the sound of a raging fire filled the entire Weiyang Palace.

The long sword Liu Zhang was holding was stained with a lot of recognized blood, and what he saw in his eyes was the color of blood except for the color of the fire.

The people around him were staging a thrilling killing, and he looked at his blood-stained hands, as if he could understand the scene when Chang Xi was poured poison that day, which was just as terrifying.

The windows of all the palaces in Weiyang Palace were splashed with a layer of red, and of course, the Jiaofang Palace could not escape.

Only Mama Su was left in Yifeng Palace, and she was quietly sitting on the throne where Lu Pheasant usually sits, quietly welcoming the sword that was chopped from the top of her head.
