Chapter IV: Mutiny

Feng Huanjie and Duan Zhiyuan glanced at each other, a hint of fierceness flashed in their eyes, and they both clenched the daggers under their robes. Both of them made complete preparations, and chose the location by the window, just so that they could escape quickly after the incident. The only difference is that Feng Huanjie is worried about the emperor's sudden liquidation, while Duan Zhiyuan is frightened that Feng Wuzhao dares to be pretentious.

"If you want to say what this king means, I don't believe that any of you have different intentions, but the emperor has a secret edict, and this king has to ask a clear question, it is related to the border defense plan of the imperial court, and there is no room for the slightest mistake!" Feng Wuzhao's face was extremely solemn, "Today, this king will take advantage of the tiger power of the generals to read the emperor's secret decree, and he will not dare to act rashly if he is rebellious." ”

The generals were in a hurry, Feng Huanjie and Duan Zhiyuan were even more nervous in their hearts, although they were both generals with military power, but in case these people under their hands were deceived by the secret decree in Feng Wuzhao's hands that he didn't know whether it was true or not, I am afraid that things would be really bad. Feng Wuzhao slowly took out a fold with a yellow silk cover from his arms, gently unfolded it, glanced at the generals with deep meaning, and then read aloud:

"The generals of the Northwest have to report to the Northwest General Feng Huanjie, who was quite arrogant during the command of the army, disobeyed the moderation of the imperial court, and often made a lot of contradictory remarks. In the past, there was a political envoy in Gansu Province who reported that his subordinates connived at the robbery of the people's daughters, and then there was a supervisor of the imperial history to impeach him for embezzling the military salary. ”

The generals knelt on the ground as early as when Feng Wuzhao took out the secret decree, who would have thought that the emperor's secret decree was actually the chief general of the northwest battalion, and they were all stunned for a while. Although Feng Huanjie was prepared, he was still taken aback, his forehead was bruised, and he was about to jump like thunder. However, the crime of the will is not unfounded, his confidant will indeed forcibly accept the daughter of a private family in the suburbs as a concubine, and the greed for military salaries is the accumulation of disadvantages of the northwest battalion, it has always been so, no one has ever impeached the dignified general on this basis, which is clearly the emperor wants to deprive him of military power. Thinking about his saddle horse for many years but having to come to such an end, Feng Huanjie can't help but be angry, since this is the case, then simply come to support the army and stand on his own.

The general stood tall and looked up to the sky and laughed: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" This king has been guarding the northwest for many years, and the emperor actually added to the crime with such a trivial matter, isn't he afraid of chilling the hearts of the border soldiers? He glanced at Feng Wuzhao coldly, "Your Highness has never gone into battle to lead troops, do you think that just with you as a powerless nobleman, these soldiers who are struggling for their lives in the pile of flesh and blood will be willing to obey you?" Hmph, Arabian Nights! ”

Feng Wuzhao was a little flustered by the imperial uncle's stinging gaze, but the next few words made him furious. Since he came to the northwest, Feng Huanjie has been indifferent to him, without the slightest awareness that this prince is a quasi-crown prince. Hindering his military power, Feng Wuzhao, who has always been conceited, can only endure it, but now that he has made up his mind, he must not show weakness to this imperial uncle.

"Prince Duan, doesn't he want to resist the decree?" Feng Wuzhao replied with a grim smile, "If Uncle Huang thinks that he can fight the imperial court on his own, then he might as well try!" ”

Duan Zhiyuan's heart was not good, and he understood the character of Feng Huanjie, a general, very clearly. Although it is not said that there is no city government at all, it is not incapacitated. Now Feng Wuzhao has made it clear that he wants him to make cruel words, if Feng Huanjie is fooled, the other generals present will be all ironclad evidence, and it will be difficult to escape the charge of a kingless king, so he must quickly focus the attention of this prince on the truth or falsehood of the secret decree.

"The general is angry!" Duan Zhiyuan took advantage of the situation to get up and persuade, "Your military achievements are brilliant, the emperor has always praised him, and he has never reprimanded him with a word, and I hope the general will think deeply." He turned his head and stared at Feng Wuzhao and said, "Fifth Highness, if the last general is not bad, I'm afraid that your secret decree arrived in the past two days, right?" ”

Feng Wuzhao's heart tightened, Duan Zhiyuan was already a famous old fox among military generals, could it be that he saw something? But if you ignore him, these generals who have already taken refuge in themselves will also be suspicious. Feng Wuzhao barely calmed down, "What does General Duan mean by this, if this king had already received the emperor's secret decree, how could he delay it until this time to announce it?" ”

"Did the Fifth Highness also hear about the recent uproar in the capital? If the last general is not mistaken, it seems that even His Highness's mother's family was implicated. Duan Zhiyuan nodded lightly.

Feng Huanjie immediately showed a look of doubt, the queen lost power? If this is the case, then there is a big problem with this so-called secret decree, could it be that Feng Wuzhao dares to be bold and pretentious? "Your Royal Highness, since the emperor asked you to pass on the secret decree on your behalf, can you lend this king a look? Brother for many years, the emperor's handwriting is confident that the king will not admit mistakes! ”

Feng Wuzhao's heart is not good, Duan Zhiyuan actually seems to see the flaw, although the secret decree in his hand is forged by a master, it is difficult for others to see the flaw, but for the shrewd person, it is different, whether it is in the form of seal or calligraphy, I am afraid that some subtleties can be seen. It must be decided quickly, he looked at Huo Shuqi, gave a light look, and then said solemnly: "General Duan, you dare to doubt the authenticity of the holy decree?" This king is the prince of the emperor's imperial seal, and this trip to the northwest is already the identity of the Qincha, since you are so bold, then the king has to announce another secret decree of the emperor. He pretended to be sorry and shouted, "General Duan Zhiyuan of Fenwei receives the order!" ”

Duan Zhiyuan knelt down reluctantly, and in a moment of panic just now, he threw a ball of paper out of the window. Peeking at Duan Da, who was dressed as an ordinary person, took over the things, his heart was relieved, and he listened to what charges the so-called holy decree had arranged for himself.

"General Duan Zhiyuan, Fenwei, colluded with foreigners, deceived the king, the crime is unforgivable, and ordered him to commit suicide, admire this!" This will, which couldn't be shorter, suddenly aroused everyone's discussion, and the emperor actually wanted to give Duan Zhiyuan death on a vague charge? Many people were wondering if Feng Wuzhao had made the wrong will, or if they had heard it wrong, however, Feng Wuzhao's categorical voice announced the truth of everything, "Duan Zhiyuan, if it weren't for your hard work, this king would have wanted to write a book to intercede for you, but now you asked for it!" ”

Duan Zhiyuan's face did not change at all, and he only stood up after thanking him with a full number of courtesies. After Feng Wuzhao read out the emperor's will, two big men caught him between him, one left and one right. Duan Zhiyuan didn't seem to feel the killing intent of the two people beside him, and he still said with a bit of ridicule: "The Fifth Highness is indeed a last resort, according to common sense, should the last general immediately commit suicide with medicine to repay the emperor's favor?" Hahahaha, it's just that with a pretentious edict, he wants to take my life and seize the power of the general, His Highness is really too conceited! As soon as the words fell, a cold light flashed in his hand, and the dagger in his sleeve hit the neck of the person on the left, and his right fist went straight to the lower abdomen of the big man on the right. After two painful snorts, Duan Zhiyuan said loudly: "Those tricks of the Fifth Highness have been taught by the last general, and I will not accompany you!" ”

I saw Duan Zhiyuan slightly propping up the table with his hand, and jumped from the window lightly, but no one reacted. "It's a good Duan Zhiyuan, you dare to resist the decree!" Feng Wuzhao slapped the table and shouted, "Come on, tell me to go down, take Duan Zhiyuan, reward a thousand taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to one level!" He was not only angry at Duan Zhiyuan's resistance, but also at that kind of contempt in his bones, however, he hadn't noticed that Feng Huanjie, who was standing in front of him, had become sharp and cold.

Downstairs, there was a sudden earth-shattering killing sound, and Feng Wuzhao had laid down a lot of people around Jubin Building in advance, just afraid that things would change, who would have thought that Duan Zhiyuan was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the counterattack of three hundred elite guards was not idle? If it weren't for the fact that Feng Wuzhao had already received the help of Zhan Pohan, the commander of the 30,000 elite Breaking Battalion, he would not have been able to resist it no matter what. Between the swords and swords, the soldiers who originally belonged to the robe were stained with blood one by one, and they took people's lives indifferently like nine ghosts. Feng Wuzhao's reward has already been shouted loudly, which of these people doesn't want to take the lead?

Duan Zhiyuan's face was pale, and he didn't expect that Zhan Pohan, who had always been impartial, would actually take refuge in Feng Wuzhao, but if he made a mistake in this move, he might not be able to escape safely today. "Duan Da, did you bring a bow and crossbow?" He shouted, "If we continue to be entangled like this, the casualties of the brothers will probably be even greater!" ”

"General Hui, do you want to use arrows here?" Duan Da's eyes widened in disbelief, "The imperial court has a clear ......"

"When is it, it's important to save your life!" Duan Zhiyuan lifted his robe, revealing a suit of soft armor that he was wearing close to his body, "Feng Wuzhao is obviously overbearing, as long as he can escape, it will be a great achievement, no matter what court decrees he has!" ”

"Subordinates obey!" Duan Da immediately understood, and then ordered. This time, in addition to the men and horses, they also brought a lot of swords and crossbows, and prepared fifty crossbows. If it had not been for the city gate but for his fellow countrymen, who had not been exempted from the inspection of the pass, these things would never have been brought into the city.

With the use of arrows, the situation of the battle suddenly changed. The fierce battle in the city was originally a scene of hand-to-hand combat, Duan Da whistled, and the well-trained guards suddenly retreated in an orderly manner, and the others who had already prepared behind were pressed up by a burst of arrows, and the sergeants of the invincible army could not dodge, more than ten people immediately fell to the ground with arrows, and the rest also scattered to avoid, and no one wanted to be a target.

Although Jubin Building was tightly protected, Feng Wuzhao saw that the battle situation was stalemate, and he was anxious. Who would have thought that Feng Huanjie would also be in trouble at this time, "I want to seize the military power of this king with just one edict, Fifth Highness, can you explain what this means for this king?" After all, he has been a general for many years, and Feng Huanjie has also noticed the embarrassed looks of the generals and colonies around him, and many people even cowered when they looked at him, which couldn't help but make him suspicious.
