Weiyang Palace. []

Adou was holding a small axe in one hand, and on the opposite side of Adou, there was a large piece of wood.

The surrounding eunuchs looked at Adou curiously, and everyone didn't know what Adou was doing.

"General Zhang, what is Your Majesty doing here?" A white-eared elite soldier asked quietly in Zhang Wei's ear.

Zhang Wei was already surprised by Adou's strange behavior, and Zhang Wei whispered: "Just watch it from a distance, anyway, Your Majesty is free and deep in doing this." ”

On the opposite side, the sharp axe in Adou's hand flew up and down, pieces of sawdust flew to the ground, and the prototype of a chair one meter wide and nearly two meters high gradually appeared in front of Adou's eyes.

This is the dragon seat that Adou built for himself.

In the Han Dynasty, kneeling was still used. Although the chairs on the Hu people's side have been spread in some places in the north, they have only been circulated, and they have not yet reached the point of popularization. Therefore, even if it is an emperor, there is no so-called dragon chair to sit on when he goes to court, but can only sit on his knees.

In his previous life, Adou was a disciple of Wudang, Dao. In addition to kneeling in front of the "ancestor master" on weekdays, he sits cross-legged on the futon, and rarely sits on a chair, so after Adou came to the Three Kingdoms, he just followed the customs, but now Adou always sits on the main hall of Weiyang Palace, and always feels that something is missing.

Pang Tong hurriedly walked over and saw Adou. was fiddling with the axe in his hand, frowned slightly, and said at the same time: "That guy Kong Ming just doesn't teach good things, he just likes this strange thing, and he also teaches His Majesty to be like this, Your Majesty is the king of a country, how can he indulge in this strange skill!" ”

Although Pang Tong's voice was not loud, he couldn't bear Ah Dou's ear strength. Huge. Tong's words, Adou heard them clearly.

Adou couldn't help but put down the axe in his hand, and said happily to Pang Tong. Said: "Taifu's words are wrong...... This trick is still very useful sometimes, such as the wooden ox and flowing horse that I played, and the prime minister's Yuan Rong crossbow, all of which can come in handy. I think that this strange skill is a good thing if it is to be of great use. ”

Although Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang are from the same school, both of them are. He is proficient in the art of the hundred schools of thought, but Pang Tong doesn't like the art of the mechanism, or Pang Tong is not interested in the things that have been handed down from the Momen. Pang Tong's patience is not as good as Zhuge Liang's, so he will not calm down and carefully study KitKat objects like Zhuge Liang.

Adou put down his hand. The axe patted the sawdust on his body and asked, "Okay, teacher, don't talk about this." Do you have news of Zhu Ling? ”

Pang Tong nodded: "It's news of Zhu Ling, but I only know the time of Zhu Ling's incident, and the specific situation is not clear." ”

Pang Tong told the story in detail, and Adou also frowned after hearing it.

"What a Zhu Ling, he really lives up to his reputation, but he is cautious enough." Adou said and looked at the sky, and then said, "Is it ugly? There are still more than five hours left. ”

"Your Majesty, why don't you still have martial law in the whole city! Now there are less than five hours left, Zhu Ling is so cautious, he will inevitably show his feet at the last moment, and Zhu Ling will not be found at all in five hours. Chen Zhi said from the side.

"No, it's not easy to catch this opportunity to wipe out all the spies in Chang'an City, if the whole city is under martial law, Zhu Ling will definitely not dare to act rashly, and it will be difficult to catch this opportunity next time." Adou immediately denied Chen's claim.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that His Majesty's safety should be the most important, and as for those who are young, there is nothing to be afraid of." Chen Zhi continued to persuade. Now Chen Zhi is responsible for the security of Weiyang Palace, so in Chen Zhi's opinion, Adou's safety is the most important.

Adou squinted his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Taifu, since we don't know where Zhu Ling is hiding now, why don't we come and lure the snake out of the hole?" ”

"Lure the snake out of the hole?" Pang Tong's eyes flashed: "I understand, but I don't know where Your Majesty wants to set up the bait?" ”

"Where to set the bait? In this Chang'an City, only this Weiyang Palace is the most suitable, there are no people in this Weiyang Palace, and if it is in this Weiyang Palace, it will not hurt the people by mistake. ”

"Your Majesty, this is too dangerous." Chen Zhi immediately stopped.

"Hehe, Chen Dao, do you have no confidence in me, or do you have no confidence in your white-eared elite soldiers? Your white-eared elite soldiers are the most elite in our army, and there should be no problem dealing with a few anti-thieves. ”

"But Your Majesty ......"

"Chen Dao, this Weiyang Palace will be handed over to you white-eared elite soldiers, if you let go of a thief at that time, you will ask!" Adou said sharply.

"The minister obeys the order...... Chen Zhi had to kneel down to accept the order.

……

The afterglow of the setting sun gradually drifted in Chang'an City, the bustling crowd on the streets slowly dispersed, and some shops have begun to close, but for some Fengyue places, it has just entered the golden time of business.

Towards dusk, it was the peak period for entering and leaving the city, and the defenders at the city gate were full of spirit, carefully investigating everyone who entered and left the city.

"Get out of the way of the people in front!" There was the sound of horses' hooves, and a knight galloped in the distance. The knight's armor was covered with dust, and the horses were panting.

"Who's coming?" The defenders at the gates immediately stopped the knights.

"I'm under General Ma, get out of the way, I'm going to see Your Majesty, Liangzhou is a great victory!" The knight shouted.

"Liangzhou Dajie, what you said is true?"

"Of course it's true, lead me to your majesty."

"Okay, the general waits, I'll lead the way right away." The gatekeeper spoke, and immediately commanded the people to make way for a way.

In a tea shop not far away, several people dressed as ruffians were sitting together.

When one of them saw the knight going straight to Weiyang Palace, he immediately leaned into the ear of the little man next to him and said, "You go back immediately and report this to the master." ”

……

In the Du family's mansion, Wang Shuang gently wiped the big knife in his hand, and next to him, Zhu Ling sat calmly on the side, half-squinting, drinking tea.

"General Zhu!" Du Sheng hurriedly ran in from the outside, and was almost moved when he entered the door.

"Du Sheng, why are you so alarmed." Zhu Ling asked.

"General, something is wrong! Just now I received news that Liu Chan is going to have a banquet for hundreds of officials in Weiyang Palace today! And some of the heads of the big families who went to the city also received invitations. Du Sheng said.

"Hai Shi banquet hundred officials, which one is this Liu Chan singing?" Zhu Ling asked strangely. It was the last hour of the twelve hours of the day, and it was night, and no one would have a treat at this time.

"General, I heard that Liu Chan was too happy because of the victory in Liangzhou, and he wanted to raise the city to celebrate together, so he would hold a banquet at this time." Du Sheng continued.

"Liangzhou victory? What's going on in Liangzhou? ”

"Back to the general, I don't know the specific situation, but the person who was sent to Ximen before reported that when he was about to close the city gate, a knight came running and shouted 'Liangzhou Victory' at the same time, and then went straight to Weiyang Palace."

Zhu Ling lowered his head and thought about it, although it was a little strange to feast the ministers in Haishi, but if it was really a great victory in Liangzhou, it would be understandable, after all, the emperor was only a young man under the age of twenty, maybe he was too happy to do such an outrageous thing with all the dishes.

Wang Shuangmeng next to him stood up and said: "General Zhu, this is really God help me, that Liu Chan feasted the ministers, that is to say, most of the courtiers in Chang'an City will go to the Weiyang Palace, we can just catch them all." It seems that God helped us recapture Chang'an City! ”

Zhu Ling nodded, if all the dignitaries in Chang'an City were concentrated in Weiyang Palace, it would indeed be a good opportunity to wipe them out, once something happened to these dignitaries, not only would there be no dragons in Chang'an City, but there would not even be a person who could command, and Chang'an City would inevitably be paralyzed. But the matter of the night banquet always made Zhu Ling feel inexplicably weird, and the banquet guests in the middle of the night always made people look a little weird.

"I always feel that this thing is a little strange......" Zhu Ling lowered his head and pondered slowly.

"General, don't hesitate, this Liu Chanhai feasted the ministers, I think we will start an incident, enter Weiyang Palace, capture all the officials, this Chang'an City is not for me and others!" Wang Shuang said.

"This is indeed a good opportunity, but since Liu Chan is feasting on the ministers, presumably Guan, Zhang and other fierce generals are also there!"

"What are you afraid of him doing?" Wang Shuang snorted coldly: "General, that Zhang Fei is the most greedy cup, Liu Chan and they have a banquet at the same time, so let's go at that time, they are almost full of wine and food at that time, it is best to get drunk and fall to the ground one by one, then it will be easy for us to act." ”

Zhu Ling nodded slightly, but he was still hesitating in his heart.

"General, don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, anyway, I was originally preparing to start an incident when I was ugly, but now it's just an hour earlier, and if it happens, needless to say, the entire Chang'an City, even the entire Shu army will also have no dragons, such an immortal feat, General Zhu don't hesitate anymore! It's up to you to become famous! Wang Shuang then persuaded.

Zhu Ling nodded slowly, the huge temptation of annihilating the officials of the Shu Kingdom kept shaking in front of Zhu Ling's eyes, and finally, Zhu Ling took a deep breath, and then said: "According to what you said, today, attack Weiyang Palace!" ”

……

The emperor had a treat, and no one dared not be active. Even if it was a treat in the middle of the night, the ministers all came to Weiyang Palace more than an hour early.

Just after the time, Weiyang Palace has begun to enter the people, a carriage stopped in front of Weiyang Palace, and from above walked down a gorgeously dressed person, some are officials in Chang'an City, and some are Confucian celebrities and children of families in the city.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came to the front of Weiyang Palace, did not dismount, and rushed directly to the palace, but the guards in Weiyang Palace did not stop them, but respectfully made a way for the two.

In the entire Chang'an City, there are only three people who can gallop in the palace, except for Adou, Zhang and Zhao.

Guan Zhang and the two went straight to the inner hall where Adou was, and when they came to the door of the inner hall, the two walked straight in.

"Two generals, why are you here, let me inform Your Majesty." Zhang Wei, who was guarding in front of the door, hurriedly greeted him.

"Okay, Zhang Wei, let the second and third uncles come in!" Adou's voice came from inside, and Guan and Zhang shook off Zhang Wei and walked in.

"Second uncle, third uncle, you're here, it's time for a banquet!" Adou said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, what is the situation in the battle in Liangzhou, but Ma won? I've only heard about the Liangzhou victory, what is the specific situation? Zhang Fei asked.

"Hehe, third uncle, there is no battle report from Liangzhou at all, Liangzhou is a big victory...... Nothing at all. Adou said.

"Your Majesty, what did you say?"

"There is no Liangzhou victory at all, all of this was arranged by me before, in order to lure the snake out of the hole." Adou told what had happened.

After Guan Yu listened, he habitually stroked his beard and said: "This Zhu Ling is also a general of Cao Ying, this person is familiar with military affairs, good at strategy, and quite cautious in the use of soldiers, he is a difficult opponent, as for that Wang Shuang, he is just a brave man." ”

"Oh?" Adou was slightly stunned, there are not many people who can be praised by Guan Yu, but he didn't expect this Zhu Ling to be able to enter Guan Yu's eyes, which shows that this Zhu Ling has real skills.

"Hehe, second uncle, third uncle, it's almost time, now that I've arranged it outside, how about going to watch a good show with me?"

……

A bright moon hung high in the sky, and under the illumination of the moonlight, the vermilion palace wall of Weiyang Palace looked extremely charming.

His Majesty the Emperor was entertaining the ministers in the palace, and in front of the gate of Weiyang Palace, a long convoy was discharged for more than a mile, and the coachmen gathered together to talk about the world in boredom, while the soldiers guarding the palace gate stood there expressionlessly, staring straight ahead.

On the long street, a group of more than 100 people is heading towards Weiyang Palace, and in the alleys and alleys on both sides, people are constantly coming out to join this team, gradually, more than 2,000 people have gathered here, and the number is still increasing.

More than 2,000 people, each with weapons in their hands, are very conspicuous on this long street, and some old Chang'an people who have lived in Chang'an for a long time have noticed that there will be abnormal changes, and they have to blow out the lamps and close the doors and windows, and even some beggars begging on the side of the street seem to have sensed that something bad is going to happen, and they all hid.

However, the patrol soldiers who were still wandering around the city during the day were nowhere to be seen, and the party of more than 2,000 people walked all the way with weapons in hand, and did not meet a single soldier on patrol.

"Brothers, hurry up, there is Weiyang Palace ahead!" Wang Shuangyi took the lead and rushed forward.

The sound of horses' hooves alarmed the soldiers guarding in front of Weiyang Palace, and everyone looked up and saw a group of people coming in front of them.

"It's not good, there are enemies, close the palace gate quickly!" The general shouted and hurriedly retreated inside, and then began to close the palace gate.

"Thief, Hugh wants to close the palace gate!" Wang Shuang shouted, shook out the meteor hammer, and threw it out violently, and the meteor hammer happened to be caught in the crack of the door below, and fell into the stone, jamming the palace gate, and the palace gate could no longer continue to push.

"Brothers, follow me in!"

……

West Gate of Chang'an.

A team of men and horses escorted a large cart slowly to the city gate.

"Stop, who's who?" The gatekeeper shouted, and the convoy stopped its progress because of the shouts of the gatekeeper.

A middle-aged man in fancy clothes got out of the car, came to the city gate, and said with a smile: "This general, down is Du Sheng." ”

"It turned out to be the head of the Du family, I don't know what you are doing here?" The city gate keeper said painlessly.

"Hehe, this general, there is an urgent matter to go out of the city......"

"No, now that the city gate is closed, let's go out of the city until tomorrow!"

"General, there is really an urgent matter below, please be accommodating ...... general"

"Mr. Du, where the accusation is, I can only deal with it impartially, and ask Mr. Du to board for the night." The city warden continued.

Du Sheng sighed slightly, came to the city guard, and said in a low voice: "General, don't hide it, here's the thing. The day before yesterday, I took in a new woman, but today this slut ran away, and someone saw this slut running out before closing the city gate, so I took someone and wanted to chase this slut back before she went far......"

Du Sheng said here for a pause, and then said: "General, the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, this matter has a great impact on the reputation of my Du family, and I also ask the general to be accommodating, and there will be heavy thanks in the future!" ”

After Du Sheng finished speaking, he took out a small bag from his sleeve and handed it to the city gate guard. The gatekeeper glanced down slightly, and now it was full of golden things, and then the guard turned the bag upside down, and felt that it was full of weight.

The city gate keeper smiled: "I see, Mr. Du, please wait a moment, I will go up and send someone to open the city gate immediately!" ”

The city gate slowly opened, Du Sheng smiled and led people to walk out of the door, just when half of the people had already passed the city gate, Du Sheng suddenly shouted: "Do it!" ”

The big men beside Du Sheng drew their blades one after another and slashed towards the Shu army next to him. The Shu army was caught off guard and fell into chaos.

"Quick, fire the arrow!" Du Sheng shouted, and several arrows flew into the air.

As the arrow rose, there was a shouting sound outside the west gate of Chang'an, and then, I saw the figure shaking in the darkness in the distance, it seemed that many people were running towards this side, and the sound of footsteps and the friction of weapons was endless, although it was dark and the number of people could not be seen, but it was enough to make people feel a sense of oppression.

"Great, General Xiahou has brought someone!" Du Sheng's face rose with a hint of joy, and then shouted: "Brothers, resist it, the reinforcements are outside!" ”

"Da ......" The sound of horses' hooves came, and a horse rushed over and shouted at the city gate: "Who is Du Sheng?" ”

"This general is Du Sheng below! I don't know if you are Xiahou Zizang or Xiahou Zijiang? Du Sheng immediately jumped out and shouted. But then, Du Sheng felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of him, to be precise, this weapon was too dazzling.

In the dark, although Du Sheng couldn't see the appearance of the person who came, he could clearly see the special weapon used by the other party, the front end of the long handle was a large iron tuo, and on the top of the iron tuo were spikes shining with cold light, which looked like it made people shudder.

"What kind of blade is this?" Du Sheng's mind flashed, and he suddenly remembered a Qimen blade.

"Tribulus terrestris!" Du Sheng was taken aback, and then asked in horror, "You...... Are you Shamoko? ”

"Hehe, yes, Lao Tzu is Shamoke!"

"Didn't you go to the front line with Zhuge Liang? No, I see! Hit the trick! Du Sheng's face instantly turned pale, and at this time Du Sheng had already understood that he had been tricked.

"Hahaha, where can you escape Your Majesty's clever plan! Come on, tie up this Du Sheng for me! Also, these traitors, don't you dare to let them go! ”

……

At the same time as the arrow was rising, Wang Shuang occupied the palace gate of Weiyang Palace with you, and the battle in front of the palace gate was nearing the end.

The Shu army gradually gave up resistance, and more people kept retreating inward.

Zhu Ling suddenly felt a little wrong, I heard that the white-eared elite soldiers who were guarding Weiyang Palace should not be so unbearable, and there was no general who came out to command the battle in the past half a day.

However, at this time, although Zhu Ling felt that something was wrong, things had reached this point, and there was no way back, so he could only continue to walk.

"General, it seems that Du Sheng's side has succeeded!"

Zhu Ling nodded, and his face gradually revealed a hint of joy, and at the same time waved his hand, and said: "Stabilize the city gate first, and then move on, now that Liu Chan should still be feasting the ministers, we must rush over as soon as possible and control the situation." ”

The battle in front of the palace gate has alarmed Adou, who is feasting the ministers in the palace. The vast majority of people present did not know the inside story of the matter, and many of them had already realized that something big was going to happen tonight.

Many of the heads of the family present have contacted Du Sheng, because there are not a few people who regret the birth of the red dragon, and many people think of Du Sheng and instantly understand what happened.

In the hall, Adou didn't seem to notice anything unusual, and still held the wine glass and kept persuading him to drink, and the two people next to Adou seemed to be fine, especially Zhang Fei, who was holding a big wine jar and was enjoying it.

"Lao Zhang, look at Your Majesty, you don't seem to be ......"

"Impossible, look outside, it seems that there is a fire, we are all here, it is impossible for Your Majesty not to appear, and even if Your Majesty can't show up, the two generals of Guan Zhang are both people with high martial arts, how can they not show up?"

"Then why didn't Your Majesty react?"

"You don't understand this, if I guess correctly, Your Majesty must have been prepared, wait to see the show!"

There are many old foxes among the people present, especially in this troubled world, Chang'an City has changed hands several times, creating a large number of old and refined guys, the vast majority of people, especially those who are the heads of the family, see that Adou is still as stable as Mount Tai, and also follow the face of the unchanged talking and laughing, looking like a quiet change.

……

Wang Shuang sniffled slightly, and the smell of wine wafted into Wang Shuang's nose.

"General, it's just ahead......"

As soon as Wang Shuang's words fell, a team of white-eared elite soldiers suddenly appeared in front of him, about more than 200 people, and set up a one-word array. And one of the generals is Chen Zhi.

"Dare to rebel against the thief, dare to trespass on the palace!"
