Chapter 217: Aftermath (3)

When everyone heard Li Zhu'er say this, they were terrified and made friends!

In fact, before everyone entered the palace, they had already learned that the guards and horses of the outer city and the guards of the inner city had already fought in full swing, from ugly times to dawn!

Sure enough, a minister asked Yan Zhuang: "Lord Shilang, the lower officials heard that Shi Chaoyi came to the city last night and fought with Qianniuwei?" I don't know if there is such a thing? ”

Yan Zhuang nodded and said, "This is indeed the case!" Last night, Shi Chaoyi led the troops to enter the city, and all his colleagues also knew that there was a reason for the city defense generals to enter the imperial city? This is a taboo in ancient times, so my subordinates questioned it strictly, asking what Shi Chaoyi's intentions were! Unexpectedly, he falsely accused us Qianniuwei of tampering with the holy decree and pretending to be the crown prince! Shi Chaoyi insisted on going his own way, and we waited for Qianniu Wei to have a reason not to guard, so we fought a battle! ”

The minister hurriedly asked, "In that case, why didn't Qianniuwei continue to defend?" Now that Shi Chaoyi has entered the city, how is it good? ”

Yan Zhuang looked at the body of An Lushan, which had been retracted, and then sighed and said: "We were swearing to resist to the death, but unexpectedly, the palace guards came to report that the lord had been assassinated and died!" ”

Yan Zhuang sighed and said: "I have followed the Lord for many years, and the Lord treats me like a son, as soon as I heard that His Majesty has died, I hurried back to the palace, how can I still care about other people?" I was afraid that my subordinates would also be flustered, so I gave Shi Chaoyi a chance! ”

Most of these civil and military ministers are still temporarily facing King Zheng, and seeing that King Zheng An Qingen has never shown up, he can't help but wonder in his heart, "Colleagues, King Zheng doesn't know where to go now?" ”

When the rest of the people heard this, they also looked around, and indeed they didn't find King Zheng's figure, so they hurriedly asked Yan Zhuang: "Lord Shilang, do you know where King Zheng is now?" ”

Yan Zhuang shook his head, "I have been commanding my men in the imperial city to resist the patrol troops and horses in the outer city, and the time of the palace is not much earlier than yours, and by the time I arrive, the lord has already died, and King Zheng does not know where to go." ”

"This," everyone frowned, their hearts were strange, and they looked at Li Zhu'er who was crying next to him, "Li Changshi, since you said that it was King Zheng who stabbed the lord, have you found any trace of King Zheng?" ”

When Li Zhu'er heard this, he wiped a handful of tears and snot, and then said with palpitations: "After the Lord summoned King Zheng last night, he told him the news that King Jin would be the crown prince. At the beginning of this day, I faintly heard the sound of fighting in the palace, so I hurriedly put on my clothes and got up, and saw the Lord's tooth soldiers, fighting with a group of uninvited guests, I was worried about the Lord's safety, so I hurried to the Lord's bedroom, and before I entered the palace gate, I heard the Lord shouting. 'Rebel son', I thought it was strange at the time, you also know that the Lord now has two sons-in-law, one is the King of Jin, but the King of Jin has gone to the north, the other is King Zheng, and King Zheng was in the palace last night, the Lord and the prince They are father and son, they talked inside, I naturally didn't dare to rush in, so I knocked on the door outside, but there was no sound inside, I felt that something was wrong, so I risked the crime of bullying the king, broke into the house, and I saw that there was a knife in the chest of the Lord! And King Zheng was inside at the time, still talking something! ”

"And what did he say?" Everyone hurriedly asked.

Li Zhu'er shook her head, "In that situation, my legs were scared and weak, how could I care about listening to what he said?" So I turned around and ran, but an assassin caught up and slashed me," Li Zhu'er said, pointing to the wound on his thigh, "Thanks to the Lord's Tooth Guards for saving me, let me send the news out of the palace quickly, otherwise our family will probably have to go with the Lord." ”

At this time, a minister said: "In this way, is it really the master of King Zheng's assassination?" ”

Another minister said: "This is not true, this official sees that this matter is confusing and quite strange, we can't rely on it alone" He looked at Li Zhu'er, and stopped talking, but everyone could hear her tone, and it was clear that he felt that what Li Zhu'er said was one-sided.

When Li Zhu'er heard this, he frowned, looked at the minister and said, "Lord Liu, what does this mean?" Could it be that you are suspicious of our family? Our family has been with the Lord since we were twelve years old, so could it be that I would still lie? ”

When the minister heard this, he also knew that Li Zhu'er was An Lushan's close minister, and he didn't dare to offend him too much, but now, An Lushan has been killed, and Li Zhu'er's biggest backer has fallen, but he is just a small eunuch, what is he afraid of?

So he snorted coldly and said: "This official doesn't mean that, what this official means is that before the truth is found out, you can't make a conclusion prematurely, since Li Changshou said that King Zheng assassinated the lord, then where is King Zheng now?" ”

Li Zhu'er sneered: "Lord Liu, don't you have a pig's brain?" Zheng Wangxing stabbed the Lord, could it be that he is still waiting here, so that our Qianniuwei can't catch him? ”

Lord Liu was stunned when he heard this, but he also felt that what Li Zhu'er said was indeed reasonable, he heard a slightly sneering voice, turned his head to look around, but saw the civil and military officials around him, all with a slight smile.

Lord Liu's face turned red, and he argued to himself: "The palace is heavily guarded, and it is not an open-air thatched pit, so how can King Zheng just come and leave?" What is Qianniuwei? ”

Everyone also heard that Lord Liu was pointing the finger at Yan Zhuang, intending to provoke discord between Li Zhu'er and Yan Zhuang.

Yan Zhuang frowned when he heard this and said, "Lord Liu, what does this mean?" Thinking that Shi Chaoyi led troops to besiege the city at night, intending to do something wrong, I naturally had to lead my men and horses to stop it, so the palace must be negligent, the number of Qianniuwei is limited, and I can't put it here or there. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and a person behind them said, "Lord Shilang, now that the soldiers are coming to the city, what else can't be said?" ”

Yan Zhuang nodded, and then said: "Shi Chaoyi led troops to besiege the city at night, and the Lord was assassinated at the beginning of today's Yin hour!" Colleagues, do you still think it is a coincidence at this moment? ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all heard the meaning of Yan Zhuang's words, and asked, "What does Lord Shilang mean?" ”

Yan Zhuang did not shy away from saying: "According to Yan's humble opinion, King Zheng assassinated the Lord at dawn today, and Shi Chaoyi also launched an attack on the city at that time, their intentions are naturally self-evident!" Intended coup d'Γ©tat to force the palace, change the day! ”
