But if you think about it, what's wrong with you? On this day and night, I was also coerced to move forward and go with the flow.

Li Xianyi heard that Li Jie and Li Mao had arrived outside the camp, and hurriedly ordered his henchmen to connect the two to the back account, Li Mao smiled and said: "The two of us came by order, and they are doing the royal mission of Gongming and Zhengda, how can they learn from the rats to sneak around?" Li Xianyi led the generals out of the camp, saluted on the horse, and asked, "What are the noble things that the king of Yun'an and the envoys of Jinglu have come to my camp?" ”

Li Mao said: "Emperor Bintian, the crown prince was succeeded to the throne by the edict, and there are ministers in the court who want to murder the prince, please lead the army into the city to rebel." ”

Li Xianyi said: "Outside the Daming Palace, there are two armies of Shence, two armies of Yingwu, two armies of Shenwu, two armies of Longwu and two armies of Yulin, and there are Jianmen, Jinwu, Weiyuan armies and Jingzhao Mansion soldiers in Chang'an City, all of whom are the henchmen of my Tang Dynasty Emperor. ”

The Shence Army stationed in Linyou Town was originally subordinate to Fengxiang Town, and fought bloody battles with Tubo for many years, with great achievements. During the Zhenyuan period, the Shence army was expanded many times, and because of its outstanding military achievements, it was taken under his command and moved to Linyou Town to defend Chang'an. However, the officers and men in the army are still often proud of the border army with great achievements, and it is only when they receive food and clothing that they remember that they are the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven.

Li Jie laughed and said: "Is it far and near to be loyal to the country?" ”

An adjutant general shouted: "Without the lieutenant's warrant, we must not enter the city without permission, otherwise it will be disobeying the military order." Military orders are like mountains, and those who violate them will be killed. ”

Li Mao held the sword of the Son of Heaven and shouted: "Is your generation the Son of Heaven's forbidden army, or the lieutenant's family soldier?" If you don't help you when you see danger, you can't save you when you see death, where do you want to put the prince here? ”

Everyone was silent, Li Xianyi drank everyone away, dismounted and bowed: "I wait for the world to receive the emperor's favor, how dare I forget my roots?" It's just that when we are in the military, we should put the military order first, if there is no edict and no military talisman, how dare we pull out the camp without permission? Please let the king and the envoy of the scriptures discern it. ”

Li Mao said: "You want an edict, and come with me, I have a secret edict, and I can only show it to you." ”

Li Xianyi will be suspicious, please Li Mao, Li Jie into the inner account, Li Mao ordered Qingmo to guard the door, said to Li Xianyi: "Ju Wenzhen intends to rebel, has been ambushed, left and right Shence, the Sixth Army, Jinwu, Weiyuan The armies have confessed their loyalty to the prince, and now only the general has not shown his loyalty, someone in the court has impeached the general for bad intentions, the prince does not believe that the general will be a rebellious minister, and the king of Yun'an and I have come to ask for the reason." ”

Li Jiedao: "My brother must not do anything that makes his relatives and enemies happy. ”

Li Jiehuo suddenly stood up and said, "My family has been loyal and good for generations, how can I do that rebellious deed? There must be a traitor who is framing me, please be sure to wash it for me. ”

Li Mao said to Li Jie: "The prince is really discerning, and the general's loyalty is overflowing. The army is in the wilderness, how can the main general leave without permission, I think it is enough for the two of us to transfer it to the prince. ”

Li Jie groaned: "It is rumored in the capital that the fifth lieutenant and Ju Wenzhen have secretly corresponded, and now Ju Wenzhen was executed for plotting against him, and Xian Yi led his troops to approach Chang'an, which is full of twists and turns, if it is not clarified in person, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles, I think Xianyi still follows us into the palace to meet the prince, dissect the reason, and explain the misunderstanding." ”

Li Xianyi was furious and shouted: "The fifth lieutenant is brave and loyal, how can he be the rebellious minister? The two of you came to my camp to go around such a big circle, it is nothing more than to suspect that I, Li Xianyi, have a heart of disobedience, isn't this a big joke in the world? ”

Li Mao said unhurriedly: "He is really a loyal minister, there are changes in the capital, why do you want to send you south?" There are 100,000 garrisons in the capital, can't you bomb the ground and ask your border army to take action?! ”

Li Xianyi was speechless when Li Mao said this, although he didn't care about the government and politics, but he didn't close his eyes and listen, although he was not erudite, he was not illiterate, he had read a few history books, and he also knew some about the rise and fall of the past dynasties. There have been changes in the capital, and the border army has moved, which is already weird, but now Shence and the six armies have confessed their loyalty to the prince, but no one has told him, which is very intriguing.

Li Mao and him have no deep friendship, and they have no common interests at the moment, so Li Xianyi can't believe his words.

But Li Jie is different, his friendship with Li Jie is not a day or two, Li Jie's heart is very big, and he has his own purpose in interacting with him, he can't think of why Li Mao wants to harm him.

Li Xianyi was silent for a while, and said: "I will follow you into the palace to meet the prince and dissect your loyalty." ”

Li Jie, who hadn't spoken for a long time, opened his mouth at this moment: "I can stay in the camp as a hostage." ”

Li Mao said: "What kind of hostage, Xianyi is a frank gentleman and a loyal minister, how can he take a county king as a hostage in the army?" ”

After Li Mao finished speaking, Li Xianyi did not answer, and actually acquiesced to Li Jie to stay in the camp as a hostage. Li Xianyi had many relatives in the army, and when he heard that he wanted to follow Li Mao into the city, he was persuaded not to.

Li Xianyi said: "If I don't go, I will lose my morality, I will go to Chang'an, you stay in the army, and they will not dare to help me?" He also asked Li Jie, the king of Yun'an, to supervise the army, and he and Li Mao went into the city together.

Li Chundai was comforted by the crown prince and sent back to the camp with generous funds.

Qingmo didn't understand this, and asked Li Mao: "It took so many means to get people into the palace, even if they didn't kill them, they should be detained, why did they let people go, this is the return of the tiger to the mountain." ”

Li Mao smiled: "What do you know, don't say that he is open in his heart, even if he is really a ghost, he can only change his appearance and be a good person now." ”

When Li Xianyi returned to the barracks, he ordered the camp to return to Linyou Town, leaving Li Jie in prison in the army.

When the fifth Shouliang heard that Li Xianyi had withdrawn from the army, and that Li Jie was imprisoned in the army, he hated and threw a pair of crystal chestnuts that he had been playing with for eight years to the ground, and scolded Li Xianyi for being ungrateful.

After scolding, I went to the table, claiming that I had a foot disease, and asked to resign as a lieutenant in the right army.

Li Chun soothed in the name of the crown prince with kind words, but did not allow it.

The army was peaceful, the palace ban and Chang'an City were under control, and Li Chun persuaded Li Yu to ascend the throne as soon as possible.

The father and son secretly discussed the time of a stick of incense in the curtain, and at dusk of this day, the angels came out and informed the various government secretaries and the hundred officials in Beijing that there would be a big event announced in the Xuanzheng Hall of the Daming Palace on the second day.

When night fell, there was a dead silence in the Daming Palace, and the crown prince did not keep the spirit, but avoided the Taiji Palace, which made many people in the palace who were familiar with the story panic.

Tomorrow will be the Xuanzheng Hall of the court, after nightfall, the inner court will begin to prepare for the second day of the court. A little eunuch was squatting on the ground wiping the trunk of the palace platform, and suddenly heard a whistling in his ears.

Is it the wind?

He looked around, the dark night, the silent hall, and nothing else.

"Did you hear anything?"

Another little eunuch not far from him asked.

"It's like the wind."

"No, it's like Yingxiao."

"I'll kill you bastards, where did you come from in the deep palace forbidden, I'm so angry."

The eunuch steward slapped the first two slaps, and the two little eunuchs obediently remained silent.

A cold wind blew, and everyone felt a chill to the bone; A bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating the rolling clouds and the lonely palace; A muffled thunder rumbled over, and the people who were shocked were stunned.

The thunder in the first month is very unfavorable. The eunuchs gathered on the platform of the Xuanzheng Palace behaved in a panic and panicked.

"It seems to be really camping." In the midst of the thunder, the steward and eunuch heard some special sounds, as if they were nothing.

"Are these thieves full of food, it's the middle of the night."

The steward muttered two sentences, pretending to be indifferent. (Dissertation College)
