Chapter 33: A Lonely Hero

Taking advantage of the gap between the troops making dry food, Qu Ping and Xiao Lu stepped aside. Xiao Lu said: "We are about to separate when we first meet, you have to take care." ”

Qu Ping said: "Don't worry, I'm a person possessed by shit luck, and I'll be fine." ”

Xiao Lu smiled and said, "You are still joking at this time. If anything happens to you, I'm going to wander. ”

"Do you still need to wander, wherever you go, someone will want to hide your golden house."

The northern girl is more open than the southern girl, Xiao Lu said: "Anyway, my heart has already followed you, no one wants to hide me." ”

Qu Ping plucked up the courage to hold her hand and said, "You just follow the troops and don't run around, General Yue has the courage to fight the world, and you will be fine." If there is danger, Sister Cailian will protect you from leaving. ”

"Cailian said she likes older people, who is it?"

Qu Ping said: "At this time, you still have the mind to gossip." It doesn't hurt to tell you, it's my first little brother, Lu Ji. ”

"Marshal, the dry food for the soldiers and horses has been prepared, and you can go!" Jiang Boyan shouted from afar, interrupting the small world of the two.

Qu Dashuai stepped onto the little white dragon, glanced at Xiao Lu affectionately from a distance, and led Jiang Boyan, Chen Chong, Zhang Xian and other generals to gallop to Yingtian City with eight thousand cavalry.

said that Lu Ji got the news from Steward Huang, and his heart was shocked. They rebelled on September 9, but they didn't go to court for these two days, and they couldn't see the emperor at all, and besides, they were a small worker who was not qualified to go to the palace to meet the emperor alone, so how could they tell the emperor the news.

Lu Ji thought about it, and ordered the people below to lock the door of the Ministry of Industry's treasury and rush to Li Gang's mansion.

When they arrived at the door of Prime Minister Li Gang's mansion, the doorman sighed that there were so many people in a hurry to find adults on this big night. The doorman told Lu Ji that his lord had entered the palace again, and looking at the sky, it was estimated that he would sleep in the palace at night.

Lu Ji left Li Gangfu, and he didn't know who to go to to discuss the strategy, and who else was trustworthy and powerful in the court. He walked like a headless fly, on a long street that was a little cold.

Lu Ji walked aimlessly, and unconsciously arrived at the palace gate, and saw that the palace gate was closed, and hundreds of guards were guarding the palace gate. Lu Ji tried to step forward and ask, "Big brother, why did you close the palace gate so early today?" ”

The man said coldly: "This lord has something to say, please go to the court to talk about it!" ”

Lu Ji wanted to ask again, but the other party had already pulled out half of the knife. Lu Ji secretly wondered if the other party had already coup d'Γ©tat in advance.

Lu Ji said: "I looked for Lord Wang, and the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion said that the Lord had entered the palace." ”

The man glanced at Lu Ji again, returned the knife to the sheath, and said, "Lord Wang wants to see the emperor, I don't have time to see you, please go back!" ”

Lu Ji has basically decided the matter, it seems that the emperor is now fierce and unlucky, and he has been surrounded by rebels, Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan must have entered the palace to force the palace. If the emperor comes to power, then Brother Qu and his ideals will have nowhere to show.

No, we still have to find a way to do it quickly.

Lu Ji looked up at the palace wall as he walked. The descendants of Lu Ban do not know that they are good at carpentry and mechanism, and they also have master-level research on architecture. No building can be 100% dead-end, or the old saying, a hundred dense and one sparse.

Lu Ji walked to the bend of the palace wall, looked left and right at no one, took out the flying claw from his arms and threw it on the city wall to hook it steadily, and then put his newly invented non-slip sleeve on his four hands and feet, and climbed up quietly with the rope. After going up the city wall and watching several forbidden soldiers patrol from afar, he quickly used the flying claws to slide down into the palace from the other side.

He collected the flying claws, avoided the forbidden army without danger, touched the corner of the wall, and went all the way to the emperor's bedroom.

I don't know where the emperor lives tonight. Why is the emperor not in his own palace, he must go to sleep in the concubine's womb.

But fortunately, Emperor Zhao Gou now has two wives, one has just given birth to a dragon son and is less than a hundred days old, and the other is estimated to be in Wu Wanyi's palace when the flowers are in full bloom.

But problems came one after another, and I didn't know where Wu Wanyi lived.

Just when Lu Ji was blind left and right, he saw a servant in his twenties, standing next to the flowers and looking around, could it be that he was waiting for a palace maid. Lu Ji quietly walked behind him and patted him on the shoulder, so frightened that the chamberlain was about to shout loudly, but Lu Ji covered his mouth with a big hand.

Lu Ji said in the ear of the chamberlain: "Your adultery has been exposed, now you cooperate with me, don't make any noise, deny me and will not show mercy." ”

The waiter nodded in fright, Lu Ji slowly removed his palm, and the waiter was really obedient and did not shout.

Lu Ji said: "Tell me, where does Wu Wanyi live?" ”

"At the Chloe Wah Palace." The chamberlain said.

Lu Ji asked for the specific route, then gagged his mouth with the waiter's socks, stripped him of his clothes and put them on, and headed towards the Kouhua Palace.

Cohua Palace, it is estimated that Zhao Gou gave the name in order to thank Wu Wanyi for serving herself since the cardamom years.

The key intersections in the palace are guarded by forbidden troops, and Lu Ji pretends to be an attendant and sneaks all the way to the harem.

In the Kohua Palace, Wu Wanyi huddled in the corner of the bed and hugged the quilt, looking at the people outside the curtain in a panic.

Zhao Gou and Li Gang, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan stood and confronted each other, and behind Huang and Wang were heavily armed Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan.

Although Zhao Gou was forced to the palace, he still maintained the prestige of the Son of Heaven, he said: "The two prime ministers, as well as Miao and Liu, the two envoys of the festival, I ask myself if I am not thin on you, why are you so forced today?" ”

Wang Boyan said: "Your Majesty, no one in the world will spare his life, unless he is a big fool." Now the Jin and Xia coalition forces are strong, our army is by no means an opponent, I and Lord Huang have been advised many times before, suggesting that the emperor move to the south of the Yangtze River, take advantage of the Yangtze River and the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, and have this time and place, as long as I wait for the monarchs and ministers to work with one heart and one mind, the time and place are favorable, and the people are complete, are you afraid that you will not be able to recover the lost land in the future? But the emperor, you listen to and believe partially, don't hit the south wall and don't look back, you are bent on fighting the Jin army to the death, and the egg touches the stone. ”

Li Gang scolded: "It's nonsense, you just want to be in a corner of peace and protect the status of the whole family." If the Jin army can cross the Yellow River, can't it cross the Yangtze River? ”

Huang Qianshan said: "Li Gang, you are still believing in the yellow until now, the Jinxia army of 500,000 is pressing, and our army's 200,000 retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River is tantamount to cutting off the way back, Bianjing Zongze's 30,000 horses are a drop in the bucket, and the army of the 30,000 Qin Kings in the south has not crossed the river yet, Qu Ping and Liu Guangshi have few letters, what to fight with the Jin army, even if all of them add up to less than 400,000. ”

Li Gang retorted: "Huang Qianshan, although you didn't officially lead the troops to fight, how can attacking the city and defending the city be treated the same way, you should still understand this truth, right?" ”

Miao Fu said: "Two adults, now that we are riding a tiger, what else is there to talk about with them." ”

Zhao Gou listened to them arguing for a long time, sighed and said, "Lord Li has done your best for the country, you have worked hard, and I am grateful in my heart." ”

Li Gang thought to himself that the emperor was going to give up.

Zhao Gou said again: "Lord Huang, Lord Wang, and the two generals, your courage is commendable, but it's a pity that I can't use it well, and I owe it to you." I wonder what you're going to do with me? ”

"The country is still your Zhao family's country, but this dragon chair has to be replaced by someone else." Huang Qianshan said.

"If I remember correctly, it seems that there are no other princes in my vein." Zhao Gou said.

Wang Boyan said: "The concubine Niangniang is not a newborn dragon. ”

Zhao Gou refused: "No, the prince is not yet a hundred days, you will ......"

Huang Qianshan said: "Then ask the emperor to give the name to the new emperor, so as to announce it to the world." ”

Zhao Gou sat slumped in his chair, not expecting that he would be ousted before he had been emperor for a year. He said: "Let's call it Zhao Yang, Yang is full of yang energy, and he gives all things." ”

Huang Qianshan didn't care what your name was, he said: "Then please ask the emperor to draw up the holy decree as soon as possible, and we will come to pick it up tomorrow morning!" Lord Li, please take good care of the emperor tonight, you won't have a chance tomorrow. Let's go! ”

Wang Boyan retreated: "Disturb the emperor and Niangniang to rest, and the ministers will retire." ”

When the four of them went out, they ordered the doors and windows to be locked firmly, and to send more troops to garrison them, so that the cooked ducks would not fly.

Li Gang sent them out angrily, knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, the old minister is useless, he couldn't save the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Zhao Gou picked up Li Gang and said, "Get up." I don't blame you for this, and I don't blame me, but I have been weak for a long time. Alas! If you give me another year or two, you will definitely return prosperity and peace to the people of the world! ”

Wu Wanyi saw that those people were gone, so she came out and walked to Zhao Gou's side, rubbed his shoulders for him and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines are worried that they will kill you." On the day when the emperor is there, they will be worried for a day. ”

Zhao Gou held her little hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you have been with me since you were fourteen years old, and you have not enjoyed a few days of good life and will suffer again." If there is an afterlife, I will treat you well. ”

Nowadays, the building is high and the walls are thick, and there are many guards outside, and it is difficult to fly with wings. Li Gang saw that the emperor and Niangniang were in love, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister went to find a corner to rest." ”

At this moment, there was a rustling sound from the roof, and then a few tiles were lifted, revealing a few bits of starlight. Starlight threw herself into the room with hope, and the three of them looked up in amazement, only to see a rope descend, and then a man dressed as a chamberlain slid down from it.

It's a bogey.

Lu Ji fell to the ground, greeted the emperor, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister is here." ”

Zhao Gou picked up Lu Ji and said in a suppressed voice: "Lu Ji, why are you here?" ”

Lu Ji briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter, and Zhao Gou said: "It's rare that you have worked hard and risked death to save me, but now there are many guards outside, and I can't escape even if I have wings." ”
