Chapter 62: Night Falls

(There are four articles uploaded in the related works, which indirectly explain some of my settings for this book, and readers who are interested can take a look.) )

The emperor made a promise to correct the name of the innocent hero, Hua Bin snorted, "Your Majesty doesn't know anything about the rivers and lakes, and you don't know what the 'chivalrous name' is, what kind of name do you talk about?" ”

Hua Bin looked at Gui Yuehua and the others, "If you can't attract that master at dawn, you don't have to wait." ”

Marquis Junyang hurriedly went downstairs, and the three Jianghu people stared at the emperor coldly.

Han Ruzi did not retreat, swept over the faces of the three of them one by one, and said to Gui Yuehua: "You obviously have a helper, why did you have to arrest me alone before?" ”

Gui Yuehua's face sank and she didn't answer.

"You cherish your face and refuse to fight more than one, just like Junyang Hou cherishes his chivalrous name." Han Ruzi asked and answered himself, feeling that it was difficult for the people in the rivers and lakes to understand, and after thinking about it, the people in the rivers and lakes asked for fame and the ministers of the court sought power, which was quite similar, "But if you are defeated, wouldn't it be more embarrassing." ”

Gui Yuehua's white face almost sank, "It's not a shame to lose to a sneak attack. ”

"But you still found a helper after you were injured, which means that you are not so confident, if that person stands up openly now, will you agree to fight alone?"

"Of course."

"And what if you defeat it? Will these two be wheel-fighting? Will you let me go? Han Ruzi's questions were one after another.

Gui Yuehua was about to lose control of the anger in her heart, "Even if Gui is not good at learning, he will not be afraid of a woman, if she dares to come out, I am willing to compete with her one-on-one fairly, if I lose......" Gui Yuehua couldn't promise to release the emperor, raised her voice and said: "Die here today!" ”

Han Ruzi shook his head, "I'm just interested in the rules of the rivers and lakes, that person is elusive, probably won't show up, it's useless for you to wait until dawn." ”

A big man stepped forward and stood in front of the emperor, staring at the emperor with two bull's eyes, "You faint monarch is very sharp-toothed, maybe we don't have to wait until dawn, let's do it now, and see if that sneak attacker dares to come out." ”

Han Ruzi's eyes were dry, and he refused to blink, "It's really strange, why do you always say that I'm a faint king?" I even ......"

"Do you want to say you're just a puppet?" The big man spat on the ground disdainfully, "King Qi rebelled, and it was okay to arrest the participants, why should they sit with their relatives and friends?" These people were not rebels at all, and even welcomed the imperial army. ”

"That's not my will."

"It's not your will to include these people's ladies in the harem?"

Han Ruzi said in surprise: "I haven't even heard of it, the harem ...... I'm only thirteen! ”

Dahan laughed, "A faint monarch is a faint monarch, it has nothing to do with age." ”

Han Ruzi still wanted to argue, and suddenly remembered what the imperial concubine had said, the queen mother created a lot of bad deeds for the emperor in order to abolish the emperor in the future.

He somewhat understood the anger of Luo Huanzhang and others, the emperor's "family affairs" affected not only the family, but also many unrelated people.

He lowered his gaze and said in a low voice: "I didn't do those things, but I am indeed a 'faint king', because I bear the title of emperor, but I don't take the responsibility of the emperor." ”

Dahan didn't believe the emperor's words at all, and snorted heavily.

Another Jianghu guest spoke: "Marquis Junyang entrusted us with such an important task, not to chat with the emperor, say a few words, and wait until the female master is killed." Gui Jiaotou, is he really just a woman? ”

Gui Yuehua hummed angrily.

Han Ruzi looked out the window, and he didn't know when the long night would end.

The big man thought that the emperor had seen something, and ran to the window in a few steps, only to see the imperial city in the night standing still, how could there be half a figure?

When he got up in the morning, he never imagined that his old boss would be inexplicably seized of the seal, let alone that he would be able to meet the emperor and accept the secret order, holding the sword that is said to have been left by Taizu, and searching all over the city for a credible minister.

He had already run into the city patrol soldiers twice, and each time he had put up the guard officer to avoid being caught, but running without a purpose was not the way to go.

Liu Kunsheng finally thought of someone, so he ran into a deep alley despite fatigue.

In the quiet night, there was a sudden knock on the door, and anyone would be frightened when it came to such a thing, but the knocker refused to give up, and someone had to come out of the house to ask.

"Who?" The voice was timid and helpless, as if it had been forced to come out.

"I'm from the palace, and I'm looking for Mr. Guo." Liu Kunsheng said, only to hear the slamming of the door, it seemed that someone fell, Liu Kunsheng hurriedly added: "It's not to arrest people, it's important to discuss." ”

After a long time, the courtyard door opened slightly, and Guo Cong, an old gentleman who had taught the emperor the "Book of Songs", stood in the door, vigilantly looking at the visitors: "I don't recognize you, you are ...... You're a guard officer, why did you come to me? Are you alone? ”

"My name is Liu Kunsheng, I am a palace gatekeeper, my family lives nearby, my second brother's neighbor's Zhang Wengu was once taught by Mr. Guo, and I am full of praise for you......"

Guo Cong was confused, but he knew that he was not arrested, so he felt a little relieved, and opened the door a little more, "Stop, just say why you came to me." ”

Liu Kunsheng glanced inside the door and saw an old servant standing behind his master tremblingly, so he said in a low voice: "It's not a small matter. ”

Guo Cong snorted, "I'm old and can't take care of big things." "It's going to be closed.

Liu Kunsheng hurriedly took out the sword on his waist and handed it over, "Does Mr. Guo recognize this sword?" ”

Guo Cong's old eyes were dizzy, he turned sideways and asked the old servant to hand over the lantern, took the sword and sent it to his eyes to look at it carefully for a while, and suddenly his face changed, "How can this sword be in your hand?" ”

Liu Kunsheng breathed a long sigh of relief, "I guess Mr. Guo once served in the Ministry of Rites, he should recognize this sword, I am ......"

"Wait." Guo Cong waved his hand to signal the old servant to go back to the courtyard, then stretched out his hand to pull Liu Kunsheng in, closed the door, held the sword tightly with the other hand, and said in a low voice: "I can say it." ”

Liu Kunsheng finished speaking in a few words, "There are traitors in the palace who kidnapped the Queen Mother, Your Majesty escaped from the inner palace, entrusted the sword to me, and ordered me to find a minister who recognized the sword, but I had nowhere to find it, so I remembered Mr. Guo's ......"

"What about Your Majesty?"

"Hua Bin was taken away by the new Zhonglang, and Hua Bin took away the official seal with a fake holy decree during the day."

"Your Majesty doesn't like to study, I knew ......it at the beginning," Guo Cong frowned and thought for a while, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet someone." ”

Liu Kunsheng was overjoyed, "Does he recognize this sword?" ”

"There is only one person who recognizes this sword and can command the ministers, Prime Minister Yin is harmless, it is said that he escaped from the Qinzheng Palace and hid."

"Mr. Guo knows where Prime Minister Yin is?"

"I don't know, but there are always people among the Guozi prisoners who do."

The two went out, one was seventy or eighty years old, and the other was over fifty years old, but they both broke into the vast night with the excitement that only young people have.

Outside the city, there was another man staring at the same dark night.

Yang Feng didn't sleep much for two whole nights, he had been galloping on horseback, changing a batch of horses at every post station, so non-stop, and finally saw the towering city wall of the capital in the second half of the night.

Cui Hong and the connector made an appointment to meet at an inn outside the city, he took most of the guards and all the eunuch entourage, Du Motian's grandson also followed, only the injured iron-headed Hu San'er and two guards stayed by Zhongchang's side, riding on horses, looking at the inn from a distance.

If Cui Hong finds out that he has been deceived by Chun Yuxiao, he will join forces with Yang Feng after he comes out, and if he thinks that everything is going well, with a wave of his hand at the door of the store, the two ironclad guards will cut off the head of Zhong Changshi.

Yang Feng must take this risk, and he must also give Cui Hong the freedom to choose, only in this way can he gain the trust of Taifu.

He didn't know what happened in the palace, he only knew that Chun Yuxiao was very ambitious and would not support any of the descendants of the Han family as emperors.

With a shoulder injury and a long-distance attack, the iron-headed Hu San'er was sluggish, but he refused to lose to a eunuch, tried to keep his eyes open, and said: "Zhao Qianjin is a righteous man, and he is a friend of the rivers and lakes, can't he help himself when he asks for help?" Even if he collects the prisoner, you shouldn't kill him. ”

Yang Feng ignored him.

"At first glance, you don't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes, find a well-known hero, politely ask him for help, the hero will definitely make Zhao Qianjin obediently hand over the prisoner, and no one will have to die."

Yang Feng turned his head and glanced at the big black man coldly, "The rules of the rivers and lakes are bargaining, that is, making peace with the mud, I want to commit a crime today, you will give it tomorrow, I want to be a good man, you give me one of his disciples...... Don't think I don't understand, if you want to live freely and follow the rules, if you want to do great things, you have to break the rules. ”

"You, you eunuch......" Hu San'er was so angry that he didn't even feel tired, but he couldn't find the right words to refute for a while.

The door of the store opened, and a group of people came out of it, and the first person was Taifu Cui Hong.

Cui Hong did not raise his hand to signal, but turned over and got on his horse, and quickly galloped in front of Yang Feng, his face gloomy, "Chun Yuxiao didn't come." ”

Yang Feng was disappointed, "He is very cunning. ”

"He sent three people with a holy decree, which was supposed to be a bluff, but they really wanted to remove me from office, if it wasn't for Yang Gong's reminder, I might have died inside, and the army of the Northland would also fall into the hands of traitors." Cui Hong was afraid for a while, he completely believed that Chun Yuxiao would not be defenseless when he entered the inn, and only three people could assassinate him.

"What about Chun Yu Xiaoren, did you ask?" Yang Bong only cares about this matter.

"He went to Huailing, and it is said that he was targeted by several guards in the palace to lead these people into an ambush and annihilate them in one fell swoop."

"How many people does Chun Yuxiao have?"

"There are less than ten people, but they are all masters in the rivers and lakes."

"Huailing is not far from the capital, there is an army stationed there, let's set off now, we can surround Chun Yuxiao before dark."

Cui Hong sighed, "I can't accompany Yang Gong, I have to go into the city immediately to stop the Cui family from helping Chun Yuxiao in a daze, although these guards I brought are not top masters, they are also useful, please Yang Gong take them." ”

Yang Feng was a little hesitant, but he wanted to catch Chun Yuxiao too much, "Okay, it's good that Mrs. Cui understands." ”

Cui Hong sighed again, "I only have one wish now, to keep the Cui family as much as possible, and not to bury Chun Yuxiao." ”

Yang Feng left Cui Hong with two guards and two retinues, and led the others straight to Huailing.

The sky was slightly bright, Yang Feng drove out of seven or eight miles, suddenly grabbed the reins, turned the horse's head to look at the capital, and his expression changed drastically, "I was fooled!" ”

Yang Feng realized that he had made a serious mistake, he wanted Cui Hong to return to the city to stop the Cui family's rebellion, but Cui Hong probably did not enter the city, but went to the southern army to seize the seal of the Great Sima.
