The night is dark, and the fog locks Chang'an.

The Empress Dowager Wei Zifu, who finally heard the news, hurried over with the queen and the palace people. At such an emergency moment, there is no way to avoid suspicion.

In the past few days, the death of Hou Weiqing in Changping has made her heartbroken. But he didn't expect that the sudden riot would spread to Weiyang Palace like this. It put the emperor in a dangerous situation.

"Emperor, you, you...... I won't let you do that! ”

Empress Dowager Wei grabbed Emperor Liu Ju's hand, her eyes were full of tears, and her voice trembled. She really couldn't understand why her son was still persecuted so much since he had been as merciful and generous as he had been since he ascended to the emperor's throne. Did the nobles of the clan really have to put him to death?

The Empress Dowager, who has never interfered in political affairs, naturally does not understand how great the thirst for power is for careerists. She won't even understand that under the generous benevolent government, in addition to being born by the common people, she can also cultivate more vigorous weeds and thorns.

The emperor looked up at his mother, and he forcibly hid the emotions in his heart. He is now the emperor of this dynasty, and no longer just a son. Whether it is for the sake of the queen mother or for the stability of the people of Chang'an, he must shoulder his responsibilities. Although the sword is a mountain and a sea of fire, it is also fearless.

"Mother, there is no need to say more...... I've decided! The rebels are targeting me, not anyone else in the Weiyang Palace. You have taught your son to be a brave person since he was a child, and this time, I don't want to stay here and endanger everyone just for my own temporary safety...... What's more, Erchen was not willing to be captured, so he became a prisoner of the rebels. ”

Emperor Liu Ju's face showed a firmness that he had never felt before. After recognizing the situation he was facing, he made such a decision in his heart. It was not so much his paranoia as the bravest struggle of his life.

"You ...... Persuade the Emperor! Did you just watch him go out and die? ”

Empress Dowager Wei was in a hurry, she knew better than anyone what kind of character her emperor's son was. Don't look at his usual gentleness and humility, but once he is more serious, it is difficult to make him change his mind. She looked around, hoping that the ministers would keep the emperor.

"Queen Mother...... It's the incompetence of the ministers! ”

However, everyone led by Dongfang Shuo and Sima Xiangru bowed to the ground and bowed their heads deeply. Those who should have been persuaded have already been persuaded, but the emperor's attitude this time is extremely resolute, and he will not listen to anyone. What's more, in the hearts of many of them, if they think about it with a rational attitude, although it is very dangerous for the emperor to leave Weiyang Palace. But it was not the right choice. Instead of trapping the dragon here, it is better to find a way to get out of the city. As long as you can safely reach Changle Plateau and call for a counterinsurgency in the name of the Son of Heaven there, you will naturally be able to quickly seize the initiative and resolve the crisis. And without the emperor's Weiyang Palace, presumably those rebellious ministers and thieves will lose interest and will not kill innocents indiscriminately.

"Queen Mother, don't embarrass them. The retainers have made up their minds, so say goodbye! ”

Once the emperor decided, he had already made rapid preparations in the shortest possible time. Dominate Feng Jiu with guards

led the selection of more than 100 palace guards with the best skills to protect him, and mobilized 200 forest troops to follow, this is all the power. The reason why more people were not brought with them was because the plan was to avoid fighting the rebels as much as possible. These three hundred people, under the cover of night, could protect the emperor as much as possible and quickly leave the city.

And the person who stayed behind to guard Weiyang Palace was Park Yongyeol, who had not left the emperor's side for more than ten years. Under the palace lamp swaying in the long wind, the white-clothed guard had no expression on his face. Since accepting that simple entrustment, he has a deep understanding of the emperor's inner thoughts. It is from this moment that the knife in his hand will fight to maintain this palace and the people inside.

Park Yongyeol, who was dressed in white, lowered his eyes and did not look at the emperor's back again. The emperor of the empire has treated him like a brother and sister all these years, and he has nothing to repay, perhaps, the only thing he can do is to fulfill the deep sustenance in his eyes. Protect the most important people.

"Queen, take care! Take good care of this child. If I don't feel sorry for anything...... The handwritten will that I gave to you for safekeeping can be opened with these ministers in front of me. Don't be disappointed! ”

The emperor looked at the empress with gentle eyes, full of guilt. This gentle and docile woman is not his favorite character. But over the years, she has done the best she can as a queen. I owe her a lot.

"Your Majesty...... Concubines...... Woooooooo ”

The queen couldn't care about the gaffe, covered her mouth with her hands, and cried silently. She was still holding Yuanfeng, who had just fallen asleep, in her arms, although she was sad in her heart, she was afraid of waking him up, so she didn't dare to cry.

At this scene, everyone around me wept. The emperor sighed, and after entrusting them one by one, he no longer had a long relationship with children. Turning around, surrounded by a large number of guards, he gradually disappeared at the end of the palace.

All the ministers, guards, eunuchs and palace maids present wept on the ground, it was not that they did not want to follow the emperor. The Son of Heaven has always been benevolent and at ease. He did not hesitate to give up his life to protect him. It's just that, for the sake of the overall situation, don't be a burden.

The emperor's steps were firm. Death is not terrible for him. If you walk out of Weiyang Palace, you will really unfortunately die at the hands of the rebels. In his heart, it was a good thing. Because, in that case, no matter what reason the clan relatives and nobles have, they will become the public enemies of everyone in the world. The crime of a king-killer can never be forgiven.

And the candidate for the successor of the Han Empire, he had already written it in that edict. As long as he is killed, he believes that the queen will not live up to his entrustment. The new emperor will immediately be embraced by everyone, and the rebels will become street rats that everyone shouts at, and they will all die without a place to bury.

Of course, this is only the worst-case scenario. If you can get out of Chang'an City alive, it will naturally be better. The Emperor had always firmly believed that even if the whole world was no longer safe, the place where he was going would be able to protect him well until that man returned.

Fires broke out in many places in Chang'an, and the fires were visible from far and near. Even near Weiyang Palace, there are several fires. Feng Jiu, who suddenly shouldered the burden of 10,000 catties, tightened his hands

Holding the knives tightly, the terrifying light in his eyes nervously surveyed the surrounding movements, lest the slightest imperceptible danger approach.

Feng Jiu is no longer young. Since the fall of Xifengwei, many powerful people of the year have disappeared. And he was the only one who remained in the Weiyang Palace and took on the responsibility of guarding.

Feng Jiu understood very well in his heart. The reason why he was able to continue to gain the trust of the royal family, in addition to betraying Xi Fengwei at the last moment, and then helping Yuan Zhao completely eliminate them, the main reason was the origin of the prince's trip to the Western Regions.

This person, who has witnessed countless ups and downs, never imagined that one day he would take on such a great responsibility. Protecting the emperor from Chang'an City at night is not only an infinite trust in him, but also a test of life and death. Therefore, from the moment he stepped out of Weiyang Palace, Feng Jiu had already made up his mind. If their whereabouts are discovered, whoever stands in their way will be killed!

Perhaps, only by walking out of Weiyang Palace and looking back at this palace city in the night from a distance, can we truly feel its majesty and magnificence. The brilliant light was like a star in the sky descending, bright and bright.

"The beauty of the prosperous age, I see!"

Feng Jiu and many others heard the emperor let out a low sigh. And this sentence is exactly what all of them feel in their hearts. In addition to the emotion, there is a shared anger against the rebels. To destroy such a prosperous situation for the sake of their own ambitions, those guys really deserve death!

This route they took out of town was very hidden. Feng Jiutou opened the way in front, and the captain of the Yulin Military Academy who led the team led the team to protect them behind. More than 300 people quietly walked around several noisy and chaotic streets, but fortunately did not encounter the rebels. Not far away, the Yongning Gate of Xicheng is in sight. As long as you get out of this city gate and gallop on horseback, it won't take an hour to protect the emperor and reach Changle Plateau.

After the soldiers and horses patrolling the city of the nine gates were wiped out, the nobles of the clan had quickly assigned men and temporarily took over the defense of the city gates. Here at Yongning Gate, about 100 or so people gathered. They all had swords and spears in their hands, and their torches were as bright as day. Closely monitor internal and external movements.

Feng Jiu tiptoed to sneak in, and after personally going over to investigate the situation, he quietly came back to discuss with the captain of the Yulin Military Academy. It was decided to attack and kill people with lightning speed, and seize the door.

The emperor, who was surrounded and protected, did not disagree. Although he can't bear to kill too much, he can't tolerate mercy at such an extraordinary moment.

Captain Yulin was responsible for protecting the emperor, and Feng Jiu led the palace guards to rush and attack. Suddenly, the sword light at the city gate was bright, and the killing machine came. These clan forces were caught off guard and were quickly killed by the skilled guards. Someone opened the city gate, stepping on the bloodstains, and the emperor Liu Ju was protected by the Yulin army and walked out of the city gate.

However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, when they looked up, they were suddenly surprised to find that the soldiers outside the Yongning Gate were arrayed, and under the light of the torches, the sword light and armor were cold.

"What a bold person! If you dare to break into the city and go out at night, you must not be a good person. Archers ready! ”

There was a general on the other side who shouted loudly. Immediately afterwards, I heard the sound of many bowstrings pulling, and the next moment, without saying anything, arrows flew like rain!
