Chen Kai's Pegasus arrived at Wanshou Palace, and at this time the palace was already in chaos.

When the eunuchs and female officials saw someone riding their horses galloping towards them, their faces were full of horror and they almost screamed.

But Chen Kaizhi didn't care about their stunned gaze, dismounted in front of the palace, pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist, and hurriedly walked into the palace.

When the eunuch in front saw it, he was trembling, but when he saw that it was Chen Kaizhi, he was busy going inside to tell him.

After a short time, Chen Kaizhi had already entered the hall.

Here, the Empress Dowager sat high, her eyes slightly closed, as if she had a headache, and seemed to be closing her eyes to recuperate, while the Empress Dowager Mu sat aside, looking nervous.

Chen Kai stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen the Queen Mother, I've seen the Queen Mother." ”

The news from outside has long spread throughout the palace.

The Empress Dowager was sitting here, looking calm, and when she heard the voice, she slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Chen Kai's uniform, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and she said lightly.

"The mourning family knew that you would come, and it was just right to come, but now the kings are reversed, trying to deceive the king, Chen Kaizhi, the safety of the palace is all entrusted to you and the governor Muxu."

Chen Kaiyi said with a straight face: "The ministers are loved in the palace, and they dare not do their best!" ”

Empress Dowager Mu on the side was a little worried, and couldn't help frowning: "The mourning family still never thought that King Zhao would win over so many people, and the Spiegel Division reported that King Zhao had gathered 30,000 elites, you ...... Be careful. ”

Chen Kaizhi didn't seem too worried, but said solemnly: "The ministers are guarding the palace city, waiting for work, if the thief army does not come, if you dare to come, you will definitely be able to meet the attack." It's just that in the imperial city, I don't know how much grain there is, and how much can I hold onto? ”

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly when she heard this, and said to Chen Kaizhi's uprightness: "You don't have to worry, the grain and grass are enough." ”

As he was talking, behind him, there was a humane: "What happened, why do you want to imprison me, I am already well......"

Chen Kaizhi turned around, but saw the little emperor walking in, followed by several terrified little eunuchs.

Obviously, the little emperor also noticed something, so he simply didn't continue to pretend to be sick.

The Empress Dowager must have ordered people to watch him, but after all, he is the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, a group of small eunuchs, how dare he really watch him.

Naturally, I can't look at him.

And this little emperor has always been stubborn and arrogant.

After the little emperor came in, he glanced at it, looked left and right, and then said sharply: "I heard that there are traitors who are in rebellion, and my father and king raise troops to kill thieves, grandmother and queen mother, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

He has gradually grown older, and he has somewhat understood some things, the Son of Heaven has been doing it for a long time, so he can't help but be arrogant, his eyes finally fell on Chen Kaizhi, and he snorted coldly from his nostrils: "It turned out to be you, what are you doing here?" ”

Chen Kaizhi raised his head and glanced at the Empress Dowager, who was silent and her eyes were gloomy.

Chen Kaizhi immediately glanced at the Empress Dowager Mu, and the Empress Dowager Mu looked at him and exchanged glances.

Chen Kaizhi immediately smiled and turned to look at the little emperor: "Your Majesty is already okay?" ”

"It has nothing to do with you, what about the dog thief who killed the king? Where are the people? I'm going to settle accounts with him! The little emperor held his head high and looked directly at Chen Kaizhi, although he was not tall, he was domineering.

Chen Kaizhi squinted at the little emperor and corrected with a straight face.

"That's His Royal Highness the Prince of Wuji."

"It's a traitor, he tried to kill the king, it's a crime of death!" The little emperor blushed and refuted Chen Kaizhi sharply.

"Nope." Chen Kaizhi continued: "That is the bloodline of the first emperor, and it is His Royal Highness the Prince of Wuji. ”

The little emperor laughed out loud, and immediately reprimanded Chen Kaizhi with disdain.

"Here I have the final say, I say what he is, he is what he is, where is your turn, what are you, dare to come and argue with me......"

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help it in the end.

actually raised his hand and slapped him hard and fell.

Syllable.

Slap crisp.

The hall was silent.

The little eunuchs looked at Chen Kaizhi in astonishment.

The little emperor never expected that he was hurt by Chen Kaizhi for the second time today, this slap made his head dazed, his ears buzzed, he wowed, and was about to cry, this hot feeling on his face made him tremble.

But he saw Chen Kaizhi's gaze.

With a pair of quiet, silent, gloomy and terrifying eyes, the little emperor suddenly felt that his body was stiff and unable to move.

After a long time, Chen Kai said word by word: "King Zhao has reversed!" ”

These five words are what everyone can understand.

King Zhao has reversed, and now, what do you want to do, a bastard of King Zhao?

Do you still think you are the Ninety-Five?

It's just an anti-minister mongrel, don't say beat you, even if you kill you, it's not in the way.

The little emperor was suddenly frightened, he took a few steps back, covered his face, but was busy looking at the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager still had no expression, but said lightly: "Come on, take Your Majesty to rest, Chen Kaizhi, you have a heavy responsibility, go and be busy with you." ”

Chen Kaizhi turned around and saluted, while the little emperor was directly dragged out by several little eunuchs.

Chen Kaizhi naturally wouldn't forget what he was going to do now, so he couldn't help but speak; "I beg the Empress Dowager to be gracious and release Her Royal Highness the Prince Wuji who is imprisoned in the palace."

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Mu exchanged a look, and then said with a faint expression: "You go." ”

Chen Kaizhi couldn't figure out the Empress Dowager's thoughts, so he simply nodded, held down the hilt of the sword at his waist, and hurried out.

Riding all the way back to the palace gate, but it was still quiet outside, Chen Kai went up to the city tower, and saw Mu Xu looking at the imperial city worriedly.

Before Chen Kaizhi hurried, he asked, "How?" ”

Mu Xu shook his head: "It's not good, King Zhao has not led a team to attack so far, I'm afraid he doesn't want to attack the city." ”

"I don't want to ......" Chen Kaizhi immediately realized something: "What Mu Dudu means is that King Zhao knows that attacking the imperial city will cause heavy losses, so he simply controls the Jingshi and traps us within the palace walls, and wants a long-term confrontation, right?" ”

Mu Xu bowed: "I'm afraid that this is the possibility, this King Zhao, back then, also led troops, managed Ma Zheng in the border town, he knew that the warrior battalion entered the imperial city, once attacked, the loss must be heavy, so simply do not come to attack the city, in this way, we dare not leave the palace without permission, and he is outside, there is enough time to divide and disintegrate the Beijing camp that does not move from all walks of life, and strengthen himself, now the will of the court can not be released, he slowly waits for the fighter plane, but we fall into passivity. ”

Chen Kaizhi looked from afar, his vision was far away, and he saw that in the far distance, someone began to build a high platform, wanting to take advantage of this to look, Chen Kaizhi frowned: "Come to think of it, this is not the most terrifying." The most terrible thing is that King Zhao can have enough time to order the Jiedu envoys of the various ministries to lead troops into Beijing, he is outside Beijing, after all, he has received the support of many generals and governors, if he waits patiently, the military horses of the nearby departments have gathered in Beijing, the longer the time drags on, if the rebellion cannot be quelled, his strength will only snowball, at that time, the size of the rebel army is not tens of thousands, but 100,000, 200,000, and we are trapped here, the longer the time, the more unfavorable it is for us. ”

Mu Xu's brows furrowed even deeper: "If the Empress Dowager summons Guanzhong military horses into Beijing, the Empress Dowager will order a few brothers to lead the troops......"

Chen Kaizhi shook his head: "The crux of the problem is here, we are in the palace, and King Zhao is outside the palace, he can repair books to various places, invite soldiers to help, and even send henchmen in the clan to persuade people to bring troops over." But what about us? We are trapped here, and it is not difficult to send an edict, but is an edict enough to make people make up their minds to bring troops to the rescue? No, this involves a matter of the life of the family, and if you want to make up your mind, unless the Empress Dowager or the nearest close minister next to the Empress Dowager goes in person and goes with the promise of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, it is not easy to make people take such a big risk. ”

Chen Kaizhi leaned against the wall, letting the cold wind blow on his face, his eyes became more and more calm, and he looked straight into the distance before he solemnly said: "Therefore, King Zhao has a great advantage, if we have no other way, sooner or later, we will be suffocated here by them." ”

Mu Xu nodded, seemingly agreeing with Chen Kaizhi's opinion, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Is there any way?" ”

Chen Kaizhi pondered for a long time: "Don't worry, wait a few days to see if King Zhao will attack." ”

Saying that, Chen Kaizhi glanced at Mu Xu, smiled and lowered his voice: "Uncle, I just met the Empress Dowager......" hesitated for a moment, Chen Kaizhi said: "The Empress Dowager looks a little strange, she is actually calm and terrifying, as if she had expected this day." ”

Mu Xu couldn't help but say: "The Empress Dowager, her mind is really unpredictable, your queen mother once ordered me to strictly check the access control in and out of the palace, in order to know, who in the palace is the queen mother to deliver the news, but until now, it still can't be found, but it is clear that the queen mother has too many secrets about the affairs outside the court and in the palace, such as a few family treasures, she has too many secrets, but ...... There is a female official ......" Mu Xu stared at Chen Kaizhi deeply, and then lowered his voice: "You also know that your queen mother also bought some people around her, but I learned from the female official that the queen mother called the name of King Ruyang several times even in her dreams. ”

"King of Ruyang......" Chen Kaizhi only nodded: "King Ruyang, I once remembered, it seems that he was one of the kings who was killed, and he disappeared after that, what, what does this have to do with King Ruyang?" She was thinking about this person in her heart, could it be ......"

"I don't know." Mu Xu said worriedly: "Right now, where can we take care of this, if reinforcements from all walks of life arrive, King Zhao has 100,000 and 200,000 elite soldiers outside, and there is a steady stream of supplies, we will die without a place to be buried, and the most important thing at the moment is to quell the rebellion." ”
