Chapter 671: Life is Frustrated (13)
Sima Zhao's heart is well known, if Du Weizhen does not come back, it is estimated that the emperor will be replaced in a few days, and Du Chenliang is so bold and reckless, he must have a certain strength, and he does not know that the other party will act rashly if he determines the details, they are likely to carry a big heel.
They were afraid that Du Chenliang would find out their address, so they went out of the city after the convergence, and now they are living in an inn not far from the city, but staying too many people at once is likely to arouse the suspicion of others, so they separated, Meng Fusheng, Du Weizhen and others lived in one house, and most of the guards lived in another inn.
Meng Fusheng sneaked into the city to investigate, he had made a lot of friends when he was an official in the imperial city before, and it was not difficult to find out the news, the difficulty was to find the most trustworthy from those friends, otherwise he had just left on the front foot, and the so-called friends were likely to sell him on the back foot.
So he found Gu Yeyang, Gu Yeyang's friendship with Meng Fusheng is something that many people know, it stands to reason that Du Chenliang should deal with him, but fortunately, Gu Yeyang is not a person who blindly stresses righteousness and does not talk about methods, when Du Chenliang's people found him, he temporarily lowered his head very interestingly and saved his life.
Gu Yeyang was very excited when he saw Meng Fusheng, "I knew you would come back!" ”
Meng Fusheng would not doubt that Gu Yeyang would betray him, the two of them had known each other for so long, and they had already made friends, and he also knew that people like Gu Yeyang seemed to be very good, but in fact they had a very good sense of justice, but their personalities were a little smoother, but this was a good thing, wasn't it?
Meng Fusheng asked: "What is the situation in the DPRK now?" To be honest, he was also a little nervous, because Gu Yeyang's answer determined their chances of winning in this matter.
Gu Yeyang's expression darkened suddenly, his brows frowned, his eyes were full of worry, he sighed and said: "The situation is very bad, and more than half of the people who support the emperor have been secretly assassinated, which makes people panic, everyone is in danger, and some of them can't resist this fear and defect to Du Chenliang's side, and the rest are more of some wall grass, or people who have different intentions, it can be said that the situation is very bad." I thought there was no hope, but when I saw you come back, my heart was still a little calmer, and the emperor came back? ”
Meng Fusheng nodded solemnly: "They are all back, but they can't come in, they are all outside the city." ”
"I know your concerns." Gu Yeyang sighed deeply, "Not coming in is indeed the best decision. I think Du Chenliang has gone crazy, he has killed so many people, he is not afraid of anything for a long time, if the emperor comes back and is discovered by him, he will even have the idea of killing the king. I can't follow you either, Du Chenliang hasn't fully trusted me yet, there must be someone watching me behind my back, if I leave, I will definitely follow, and it will do you all kinds of harm but no benefit. ”
Meng Fusheng forgave him, "We know, Wei Zhen will not doubt your sincerity, you must also protect yourself in the city, and try not to conflict with Du Chenliang's people." ”
"Don't worry, if I didn't have this endurance, I wouldn't have survived until now, and I would have been killed a long time ago."
Meng Fusheng left worriedly, and was almost discovered by the people who were secretly monitoring Gu Yeyang, if he hadn't paid more attention to the surrounding situation, he might not have been able to get out of the imperial city safely.
After he returned to the inn, Du Weizhen and the others immediately surrounded him and asked, "How is the situation in the city?" ”
Meng Fusheng shook his head, then poured a sip of tea before saying, "I've seen Ye Yang, and I've heard a lot about it from him. Anyway, the current situation in the imperial city is very unfriendly, many people have died, and there are not many people left who still support Wei Zhen until now. Most of them have become Du Chenliang's henchmen or people with ulterior motives, and they can't be reused at all, and even using them has a great risk, and it is very likely that they will be betrayed to Du Chenliang. ”
Hearing such a grim situation, Du Weizhen's heart fell straight to the bottom, as if sinking to the bottom of the abyss, and the feeling of weightlessness and powerlessness made his eyes a little hot. He also understood that even if he went back alive, there were not many people left who were willing to believe him, and more would rather he be dead, even if he stood in front of those people alive, he would be stamped with the seal of an impostor, and it would be difficult to distinguish between them.
The powerlessness in his heart could almost swallow him, he felt so powerless for the first time, an emperor did his job, it was the end.
Du Weizhen covered his eyes in a frustration, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Meng Fusheng noticed the dull aura in the air, and his mood sank, but when he thought of something, he quickly became excited, pulled Du Weizhen, and said, "What if Du Chenliang has more people under him?" Isn't the power of war still in your hands? ”
Hearing him say, Du Weizhen's eyes also lit up, that's right, he has a lot of capital in his hands, just now he just heard that so many people in the DPRK and China were unwilling, so that he was not in the mood to think, and now he was mentioned by Meng Fusheng and woke up.
He now holds the power of the army, and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, which is responsible for guarding the secret guard of the Imperial City, has always been loyal to the emperor, as long as he can contact the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, with heavy troops, will he still be afraid of Du Chenliang?
Du Weizhen naturally can't enter the imperial city in person, he doesn't know kung fu, if he is discovered, he will become a burden to others, and his status is noble, the final victory depends entirely on whether he can contact the commander of the cavalry battalion, how can he take a little risk?
So this task fell to Meng Fusheng and Li Qing, and the two had no objections.
But as soon as they entered the city, they were actually besieged! It turned out that when Meng Fusheng went to look for Gu Yeyang last time, he was actually discovered by the people who were secretly spying, but they didn't show up just to cast a long line to catch a big fish, and now the big fish is not hooked?
Meng Fusheng and Li Qing resisted, but Du Chenliang made a bloody effort to catch them, and hundreds of guards crowded the street, and the people were so frightened that they didn't even dare to look at the excitement and hid from afar.
In the end, the two of them were invincible with two fists and four hands, but they were still caught and escorted to Du Chenliang.
Meng Fusheng saw Du Chenliang's ugly face, and anger came from his heart, "Du Chenliang! You father-killing bastard! For the sake of your siblings, the emperor only locked you up in prison at the beginning, and he didn't even suffer punishment, so he was not kind to you! But what have you done! It's just a beast! ”
