Chapter 6 Turmoil

After a night of fierce fighting, when the dawn came, Luojing City, the capital of the Great Han Kingdom, had completely fallen into fighting and bloodshed, and even the people who were far away from Liu Zhao's palace could clearly hear the miserable cries from time to time.

Liu Zhao didn't sleep all night, but there was nothing he could do.

The situation is critical, and even Si!

This was completely beyond his expectations, he wanted to go out and "surrender" when Rojo attacked the door, and then meet his father to clarify the misunderstanding, but out of nowhere, a soldier and horse appeared and fought with the Imperial Guards for a whole night, and so far they have not shown defeat!

Even Wu Xiufeng panicked, according to this trend, the emperor's patience ran out, and the two of them turned over hopelessly.

Even father and son couldn't meet if they wanted to.

At this time, the world is so big, and the husband and wife are helpless.

At this time, the outskirts of the palace were no longer the first few hundred people fighting, but a large-scale battle with the participation of regular troops!

In the dark night, the more than 200 elites brought by Luo Huo in the early days were surrounded and killed by more than twice the number of masked soldiers, and they were at a disadvantage, Luo Huo saw that the shape was unfavorable, and hurriedly sounded the alarm, and Prime Minister Ya Heng personally led two thousand janissaries to come to the rescue, and the enemy actually invested a thousand soldiers and horses again.

There was almost no difference in the number of the two armies, and they fought against each other.

For a whole night, the killing continued.

This fierce and long bloody battle lasted for a whole night, and the streets around the palace were completely transformed into battlefields, with blood everywhere staining the walls and roads, and the corpses of severed arms were everywhere, which looked horrific to see.

Finally, before dawn, the Praetorian Guard side completely took the initiative, and the masked soldiers were just desperately resisting.

On the periphery of the battlefield, Governor Rojo and Prime Minister Yaheng stood side by side.

Yaheng carried his hands, habitually walked back and forth, pacing slowly, in the early morning light of Luojing City, he did not have the slightest tiredness, but looking at his appearance, it seemed to be a little older.

He raised his head, paced to Rojo's side, stared at the blue sky outside, and sighed:

"Your Excellency the Governor, it looks like it's going to be a good day!"

A gentle cold breeze blew in on this summer morning, bringing a hint of coolness.

Rojo tucked his clothes, his expression was as indifferent as usual, and his eyes were as deep as water.

Hearing Yaheng speak, he raised his head, looked at the sky, and said with a smile:

"Yes, but it just rained yesterday, and I'm afraid the heat is coming."

After speaking, he glanced at the battle between the two armies, was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked:

"Prime Minister, don't you think it's a little strange about the assassination of the hundred masters?"

Ya Heng was slightly stunned after hearing this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, he shook his head, and said with a faint smile:

"You also know that the emperor's dragon body is not safe, so whether this qiē is strange or not is not so important."

Rojo shook his head and sighed:

"But this qiē was done in a bit hastily and clumsily."

Yaheng frowned, turned around, stared at Rojo, and said in surprise:

"I don't understand what the Governor is saying!"

After hearing this, Rojo smiled and said:

"The prime minister also knows that when I first encountered a big defeat, I have been in a trance, and sometimes I don't know what I am talking about."

The two looked at each other and laughed in unison, as if Rojo had told a nice joke.

At this time, the blue sky there is high, and there is a round of red sun, which is about to erupt.

Luo Huo looked at the battlefield for a while, nodded, and said:

"Prime Minister, what do you think?"

He asked at no end or end, but Yaheng understood and smiled:

"It's not early, and the movement is almost over, and if you continue to delay and fight for a long time, it won't be good for your Rojo's reputation."

Luo Huo froze for a moment, suddenly woke up, and scolded with a smile:

"The Prime Minister didn't remind you a long time ago, and now it's a little unkind!"

Yaheng laughed and joked:

"I told you a long time ago, whose joke the old man sees."

Rojo shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned to give orders, and the herald ordered the horses to gallop forward.

A moment later, the Praetorian Guard seemed to wake up, and the masked soldiers, who were already on the verge of collapse, were even more unable to resist and completely collapsed.

However, after a stick of incense, they were slaughtered by the Praetorian Guards, and just as Rojo and Yaheng were joking with each other and pointing out the country, a Praetorian Guard was riding a horse and saluted the two giants of the empire and asked:

"My lord, there are less than a few dozen rebels left, do you want to stay alive for interrogation?"

Yaheng didn't raise his head, and said with a faint smile:

"Kill them all, it's a curse to keep them."

In the sun, Yaheng's smile was a little gloomy and cold, and it was cold to the bone marrow.

The team is not nonsense, salutes and turns around, and gives orders.

The screams were instantaneous, and the remaining dozens of masked soldiers were killed.

Wang fu.

Liu Zhao was in the bedroom, walking back and forth uneasily.

At first, he still had hope, thinking that although the masked army was large in number, it was by no means an opponent of the Praetorian Guard, and he was fortunate to lead the crowd to capture him after the war, meet his father, distinguish the explanation, and beg for mercy.

However, the shape shì turned sharply, and the two sides actually increased a large number of troops at the same time, so that the war tended to be white-hot, forming a big battle, the two sides fought for a night and it was difficult to solve, he opened the door and surrendered several times, but was stopped by the soldiers.

This night, I couldn't surrender, I couldn't escape, and I was trapped in the mansion alive!

Liu Zhao's heart was in turmoil, and a voice kept echoing in his heart:

"What to do, what to do?"

At this time, Wu Xiufeng, who has always been wise and intelligent, is helpless and helpless, but she is quite calm, and has been sitting quietly in the chair, not knowing what she is thinking.

Liu Zhao walked back and forth anxiously, this night was longer than a year for him.

When the news came, the war was finally over completely, and the masked soldiers who "helped" themselves were wiped out, and no one was left.

Even the "witnesses" who could prove his innocence were slaughtered by the Rojo army, and he was at a loss for words at the moment.

And the Praetorian Guard, after the victory, did not move again, only trapped the mansion and looked at each other from a distance.

After waiting for a while, Liu Zhao finally let out a long sigh, disheartened.

The sun was shining outside the door, the sun was dazzling, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at the blazing light, Liu Zhao suddenly felt dizzy, unstable, and sat down.

The subordinates were already flustered, and they were even more panicked when they saw this, but after they looked around in a daze, and after running around for a while, they found in despair that the world was so big that there was no way out!

On weekdays, when he was on an errand in the second prince's mansion, the look of power and fortune had already been forced to nothing by this thrilling night, and his face was full of fear.

In Luojing City, they have never had such a stormy and dangerous day!

At this time, it was close to noon, but in Luojing City, the streets were deserted, and the people were all nested at home, not daring to go out at will.

Only the sound of countless soldiers running and shouting echoed in the sky above the city.

Yaheng looked up at the sky, the sun above the sky was so bright that it was dazzling, people didn't dare to take a second look, the sky was blue, the sky was clear and lonely.

It's starting to get hot, and I don't know when sweat is pouring all over my body.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he turned to Rojo and smiled:

"My lord, will you go in or will I go in?"

Rojo let out a long sigh and said:

"His Royal Highness Liu Zhao has always looked down on me, and I made a fuss last night, but I was afraid that I would hate me to the core, so I won't go in, and the provincial self-deprecation is boring and makes people laugh."

Yaheng nodded and smiled, and said:

"In this case, I will receive this credit, but the old man's family is poor, so he will not repay the gift."

After hearing this, Rojo laughed and said:

"I don't dare to eat the food at the prime minister's house, I'm afraid that after today, there will be few opportunities for you and me to work together."

Yaheng looked up at the sky, and the round of tomorrow looked high and far, but it looked a little lonely.

He waved his hand, stopped talking, smiled slightly, and walked towards the palace.

Behind him, several guards silently followed.

Stepping through the long-confined gate, passing through the corridor, and entering the hall, I saw the second prince of the empire sitting on the ground decadently,

Motionless, his eyes were dead and gray.

The entire courtyard was in a mess, and the men had been dispersed by the soldiers who came first, and there was not a single one left.

It was the princess Wu Xiufeng, who was sitting peacefully on the chair, holding a cup of tea and closing her eyes.

This indifferent bearing, even Yaheng felt admired, but in the position opposite the princess, there was a large water stain, which seemed to be the result of the tea "accidentally" poured on the table.

Yaheng smiled slightly, walked to Liu Zhao's side, and saluted respectfully:

"The old minister sees His Royal Highness the Prince."

Liu Zhao didn't seem to have the strength to stand at this time, he held on to the wall and tried to stand up, but he didn't hold it steady, and he stumbled and fell to the ground, and the wolf was unbearable.

Yaheng glanced at the soldiers behind him, and the team was aware of it, trotted over, and helped Liu Zhao up.

The latter let out a long sigh and burst into tears, where was there still a little bit of majesty.

He looked at Yaheng and cried incoherently:

"Prime Minister! I was wronged! As soon as the army arrived last night, I wanted to open the door and surrender, but Governor Rojo never gave me a chance, and I couldn't get out at all! Also, also, the masked army last night was not arranged by me at all, it must have been the prince who framed me and wanted to kill me! Prime Minister, you have always been wise and decisive, fair, you will definitely be able to see the tricky, please tell the truth to my father for me, or, let me meet my father, I will explain to him in person, Prime Minister, Liu Zhao's family's life, entrust your hand, all hope to be gracious! ”

Yaheng laughed twice, shook his head, and said:

"Your Royal Highness, I'm afraid that the old minister is powerless and powerless about this, and there is a decree on the saint, saying that you have an arrogant temperament, despise the minister, disrespect the court, disobey the court, and secretly form a party, raise dead soldiers, assassinate important ministers, and cause chaos in the country, and should be punished with capital punishment, but thinking of the love of father and son, flesh and blood, and extrajudicial kindness, it was decided to ban His Royal Highness Liu Zhao in the side hall of the palace, and never step out of the palace gate. The will has been made, and I am afraid that the emperor will not see you. The old minister had nothing to do. ”

In the room, with a "bang", the teacup fell from Wu Xiufeng's hand, fell to the ground, and shattered.

Startled Yaheng.
