Taishifu.

The porcelain fragments on the ground of the secret room, Yu Chengyun's face sank like water, and he asked coldly, "What does Li Chengde want to do?" ”

Inside the room stood the old man from before, still dressed in sackcloth, and a middle-aged man in his forties, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and big ears, quite majestic.

At this time, the middle-aged man replied: "Yu Taishi, I think that the emperor's move is intended to knock the mountain and shock the tiger, and from the humble position, the emperor is just making a show and suppressing some rumors in the royal city." ”

"What if that's not the case?"

"This, if this is not the case, I think that we must strike first." The middle-aged man paused slightly, his eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word.

Yu Chengyun was stunned for a moment and said, "Time is too rushed. ”

"Taishi," the old man in Mai moved, as if he had just woken up and said slowly: "The emperor's three decrees, we have no way out, if the emperor just wants to show his majesty, then don't worry, but according to the content of the decree and the signs in the city, this time the emperor must be plotting a big thing, and we have no other choice, if the Guanshan camp enters Zhuocheng, we are like a fish with a sword, life and death are in the hands of others, and the subordinates think that the matter of forcing the palace can no longer be delayed, and it will be interrupted continuously, and it will be disturbed." ”

"It's just that this Emperor Wanlong could come up with this move to catch us off guard." The middle-aged man groaned.

"There must be someone behind the scenes to advise the emperor, Zhuocheng is a place where the royal power is concentrated after all, Li Chengde can use the emperor to give orders, if we make the slightest move, we will be charged as a traitor." The corners of Mai's eyebrows moved, and he said.

"But Li Chengye is manipulating behind his back?" Yu Chengyun asked with a low face.

"Judging from the current situation, it shouldn't be, Li Chengye only got this news in the palace, and he didn't receive any news before. After hearing the news, Li Chengye immediately stepped up the guards of the palace, and ordered people to investigate around the royal city, this Prince Chun's palace has been under our surveillance, and there is no change before the emperor's decree. If the subordinates are not bad, the person who advises the emperor should be in the palace. The old man in Mai shook his head and replied.

"In the palace?" Yu Chengyun frowned and asked, "Is there any news in the palace?" ”

"No," the old man in Mai replied, "Since Emperor Wanlong ordered the palace gate to be sealed, the security in this palace has been significantly stricter, and at present, the entry and exit have been isolated, and it is difficult to send the news, but Emperor Wanlong must not have thought of it." At this point, the old man in sackcloth slammed his mouth, closed his eyes, and said no more.

"Hmph, Li Chengde's move seems to be aimed at the old man, forcing the old man to rebel. However, this old man in Zhuocheng has been in business for many years, how can he imagine that he only knows the color of wine. Yu Chengyun sneered a few times and said in a cold voice.

Suddenly, the old man in Mai with closed eyes moved slightly, his eyes opened, and a cold glow appeared, forcing people's souls, it was actually a master of the inner family, at this time, his face was solemn, and said: "Taishi, general, please wait a while, there is news coming." ”

As soon as he entered the house, the middle-aged man asked, "Mr. Ge, what's wrong?" ”

"Taishi, the secret agent just came to the news, Lord Situ Lu fell into the water last night and drowned in the Agarwood River, the post of Privy Council Counselor has been temporarily replaced by Zongbo Yang Wanli, from the discovery of Lord Lu to the emperor's decree Yang Wanli temporarily on behalf of the Counselor, there is little difference in time before and after, it must be a pre-designed bureau."

"What a Li Chengde, the old man underestimated him in the past." Yu Chengyun was shocked, and his eyes showed a cold light, "I drowned a Situ Lord casually, it seems that Emperor Wanlong will not give up this time." ”

"Taishi, how are we going to deal with it next?" The middle-aged man asked.

"The matter of raising troops cannot be delayed, and Li Chengde cannot be left with the slightest respite. Changhe, your cavalry army is responsible for the defense of the city, the guard is responsible for the security of the city, now the new commander of the guard, not a few days, the order will not be accessible, I ask Mr. Ge to help you, today when the arrow sounded for the horn to control the guard, and then we forced the palace together. You have less than three hours to prepare, remember, close the gates, and do you not open them without my commandment? Yu Chengyun stared at Xiao Changhe, the commander of Duqi, without blinking, and said in a deep voice.

"Taishi, there is only one thing, this Li Chengde sealed the palace gate, if we force the palace, there is still a forbidden army, I am afraid our troops are not enough." Xiao Changhe said with a little doubt.

"General Xiao of the forbidden army, please rest assured, the Taishi has his own arrangements." The old man in Mai said.

"It doesn't hurt to tell Changhe, Li Chengru is the old man's person, and he should open the palace door at that time. Changhe let go and do it, the old man will protect you for a hundred years of glory, and will never treat you badly. Yu Chengyun laughed and said.

"Thank you, the master, the master is really resourceful, and he will repay the kindness of the master with death." Xiao Changhe knelt down with a little trepidation and thanked him.

"Haha, General Xiao, you can't die," Taishi stepped forward to help Xiao Changhe Road: "You haven't shared the glory and wealth of this great gan with me, how can you die?" ”

"Yes, the last will obey." Xiao Changhe's face flushed, he bowed deeply, and left the Taishi Mansion.

Waiting for Xiao Changhe to leave, Yu Chengyun's face immediately became gloomy again, and said, "Mr. Ge, is there anything abnormal in the city?" ”

"No, the Guanshan battalion is just gathering troops, and there has been no change yet, but it has to be prevented from Emperor Wanlong having hidden means. In the city, only the Tiger Guard and the Phoenix Dance Battalion of Prince Chun's Mansion are left to fight. ”

"Prince Chun's Mansion is not to worry, Li Chengye has a plan, but he is not bold enough, he will not rush to send troops until he figures it out, and this time is enough for us to support the new emperor. Mr. Ge, keep an eye on the movements of the palace and the Guanshan camp for the old man, as soon as Situ dies, the Privy Council will be leaderless, and it will not be available to me for the time being, so we can only rely on our own people. Yu Chengyun paced back and forth for a few steps, turned to the old man in Mai and said.

"Yes, Taishi, my subordinates are going to prepare, do you want to bring the eldest prince with you?" The old man in Mai suddenly remembered and stood up and asked.

Yu Chengyun's eyes flashed, and then he said: "Forget it, the erector has no plan, he just adds to the chaos, today's incident is in a hurry, and there can't be a little fork in the middle of the link, if he goes to increase the variables, don't go." ”

The old man in Mai bowed, and at this time Yu Chengyun's calm voice came: "The people behind the scenes, you want to be alive, and the old man wants to see what kind of characters dare to go against the Taishi Mansion." The old man in Mai paused and replied, "Yes." He retreated, leaving Taishi Yu Chengyun standing alone in the room, muttering to himself: "Tonight is good, the wind is high on a moonlit night." After speaking, a cold gaze shot in his eyes, and he also left the secret room.

This night, Zhuocheng, the undercurrent is surging.

At that time, the capital guarded the place.

A terrible arrow pierced the night sky, and several black-clothed men climbed over the high wall of the guard, opened the gate, and hundreds of warriors stepped over the guards who fell in a pool of blood in front of the door, poured into the guard, and silently surrounded the entire guard.

The figure in the guard was scorching, but it was extremely quiet, there was no trace of the sound of the guard talking, the leader of the man in black stepped forward, it was the old man surnamed Ge of the Taishi Mansion, looked at the figure reflected in the window, suddenly his face changed, the palm wind swung out, broke open a window, flew in, and then flew out backwards, shouting: "It's a plan, retreat quickly." "There was a robe in his hand, and the room was empty, except that the cap of the robe hung on a bamboo pole, and at one end a hemp rope was attached, and it passed through the beams of the house, and was tied to a few hares in cages.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a loud noise in the east of Zhuocheng City, and the old man in Mai's face changed again, and he shouted in a low voice: "Hurry back and go to Suzaku Street." ”

The group rushed to the front of Suzaku Street, the Taishi Yu Chengyun and the commander of the Duqi Xiao Changhe were already on the square, Yu Chengyun saw the old man in Mai hurrying over, and before the old man could speak, he waved his hand and said: "I already know, a good Li Chengde, the old man still underestimates him." Mr. Ge, lead the dead to prepare, after entering the palace, he must suppress the situation in the palace as soon as possible, capture Chengde Xiao'er alive, and then the old man will coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world. After speaking, his eyes shot a terrifying fierce light, and he said word by word: "It is not known who killed the deer!" ”

On this night, many sects stayed awake all night, and Zhuocheng surged with a loud bang in Dongcheng, and everyone was in danger.
