Chapter 135: Jinling City's Undercurrent Wind (4)
The arrangement of the mourning hall is still neat, and after those monks drank the porridge, they went to the mourning hall to chant the Buddha again, everything was as usual, but they were not in a hurry.
Huangfu Jixun got up from the ground, he looked very embarrassed from his body, he covered his wounds, and persuaded loudly: "Your Majesty, the queen of the last general, please go first!" β
Li Yu was still stunned, he looked at the children of the royal family behind him, the envoys of the Song State and the civil and military ministers of the Tang State, all of them had already come out of the hall, anxiously looking left and right, looking at a loss.
Among these ministers, Chen Qiao always led the affairs of the military state, but he was very suspicious of today's critical situation, and judging from the development of the situation, he always felt that there was something wrong with it, so he personally came out and asked in front of Huangfu Jixun: "General Huangfu, is there any other forbidden army in the palace that can confront the rebels?" β
Huangfu Jixun looked at Chen Qiao, Chen Qiao was almost suspicious, and when Huangfu Jixun saw this, he pretended to be helpless and said: "Master Chen, now King Zheng's rebels are too fierce and have rushed to this side, and the rest of the forbidden army has been defeated by the rebels in one blow, and now the forbidden army cannot be transferred for the time being, so I have to go to the Jiangning Mansion to transfer the government army." β
Chen Qiao muttered: "Jiangning Mansion, I don't know how many government soldiers can be dispatched now?" β
"Bachelor Chen is too arrogant." Li Congqing, the king of Qi, also echoed on the side, "Your Majesty, since this is the case, please send someone to the Jiangning Mansion to mobilize the government army, and now you have to do this, Your Majesty will be led out of the palace by this king, and the rest of the ministers please stay in the Zhaitang first, as for you, the rebels will not harm you anymore." β
"Cousin, how is your strength over there?" Li Yu saw that Li Congqing had some soldiers on his side, and Li Jingda, the king of Qi, had also trained a group of soldiers with poor combat effectiveness, so he immediately said to Li Congqing.
"Your Majesty, the strength of the army on the minister's side has been consolidated, and it is estimated that there should be 120,000, and it is unknown who can win and who can lose at that time."
Li Yu just nodded reassuringly when he heard this, and the combat effectiveness of King Qi's army was not weak.
When Huangfu Jixun heard this, he said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, I have to do this, and ask Your Majesty to change into civilian clothes immediately after going to the palace, and escort the last general and King Qi out of the palace to avoid the limelight." β
"Your Majesty will go first, and Chen Qiao is waiting for good news in the palace."
Some other ministers, even Han Xizai, said: "Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry about us, King Zheng's rebels won't do anything to us at will." β
Li Yu nodded, Shicai's mood was a little relaxed, so he took a few concubines and the prince of Qingyuan County, before leaving, he also wanted to take Zhou Jiamin away, but Zhou Jiamin waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about us, you must know that King Zheng's target is not us, even if we fall into our hands, we can't constitute a threat to Your Majesty." β
When Zhou Jiamin finished saying this, he looked at Zhao Dezhao sadly, and seemed to complain about him, but Zhao Dezhao had to smile embarrassedly, he just didn't know what to do next for those palace maids hidden in the palace.
And the two in front of him, Li Congqing and Huangfu Jixun, are just colluding together and making a fake rebellion, and the other one should be the ghost of the brocade robe, this ghost is very strong according to the righteous father, and it can be called the opponent of Changchun Hall.
Zhao Dezhao stood behind the crowd, and then took advantage of the panic to take Zhou Jiamin's hand.
Zhou Jiamin was about to call, but Zhao Dezhao covered her cherry mouth, "Sister Zhou, don't say more, if you believe Dezhao, follow me." β
"Follow...... You go. Zhou Jiamin's face was a little embarrassed and angry, there were many people, this guy was about to flee as soon as he opened his mouth, where did the heroic spirit of the past go, Zhou Jiamin pursed his lips, and looked at Zhao Dezhao with disgust in his eyes.
"Sister Zhou, you misunderstood, I have a way, you can watch it." Every step, every small step must not be wrong, whoever has the chess piece of Li Yu in his hand will be more beneficial to whom, as for this sentence, Zhao Dezhao naturally can't say this.
β¦β¦
At this moment, Li Yu finally saw that the current situation was tense under the persuasion of several people, and planned to leave the palace temporarily, so that the rebels could pounce on him, so he didn't care about the safety of Zhou Jiamin and others, and took his concubine and son Qingyuan County King, called the chamberlain, brought some clothes and water, and planned to escape out of the palace first to avoid the limelight.
Huangfu Jixun and Li Congqing, the king of Zheng who was present, saw that their premeditated plan was half successful, so they immediately surrounded Li Yu and the others and left the hall.
Zhao Dezhao saw that everyone around him cared about the rebels of King Zheng, so he took Zhou Jiamin's little hand and secretly left the dining hall that was arranged.
Around the hall, all those people were in the same place, and it was also because of the persuasion of Chen Qiao, Han Xizai and others that Fang Cai's heart settled down a little and took a long breath, but even so, they didn't dare to relax.
While the group was discussing, suddenly the group of "rebels" had heard the sound and surrounded the entire hall.
Chen Qiao bore the brunt of the attack, and as soon as they met, he came out of the hall and shouted: "Who are you, traitors?" β
"Traitor, ridiculous!" On the black horse, a masked man shouted with a big knife in his hand, "I am King Zheng's army, no, after King Zheng ascends the throne, I am the general of the Tang Kingdom, why don't you kneel when you see the general, or do you want to hit the stone with an egg?" β
The other ministers also said: "Ridiculous rebels, with my royal teacher, why can't I destroy your gang of rebels and thievesββ"
The masked man, driving his horse, ran straight to a young man in Tsing Yi with a wave of his knife, and then his hand fell with a knife, and a bloody head splashed with three feet of blood, and the big head flew, and as soon as the body fell to the ground, the head rolled to the middle of the crowd, and several of the old officials fainted on the spot, and some of the heads that rolled to their feet also kicked away.
The masked man smiled heartily, "Hahaha, if it weren't for King Zheng's face, you people wouldn't be enough for me to cut!" β
"Thief, you-"
"Who else is not convinced!" The man said in a positive voice.
The civil servants present shrank in the corner, silent.
Chen Qiao and Han Xizai stared at the men on the horse and the people and horses around the hall.
β¦β¦
Since Li Yu was escorted by Huangfu Jixun and Li Congqing, half an hour later, this group of people arrived at the west gate of the palace gate, Li Yu and his gang were now exhausted, and when they saw that there was no King Zheng's rebels behind him, he wanted to rest in place for a while.
"General Huangfu, where have I been now?"
"Your Majesty, you have now reached the side of the West Gate."
Li Yu was so tired that he couldn't do it, half of his father-in-law on his body was already so wet that he couldn't get wet anymore, he gasped roughly, completely ignoring the emperor's pampered attitude, sat down next to the city wall, and said embarrassedly: "General Huangfu, cousin, King Zheng's rebels don't seem to have stepped forward, should we rest for a while." β
"That's fine." Li Congqing, the king of Qi, did not follow, and he had been thinking about that thing on the way, the thing that made him famous for all eternity.
Li Congqing straightened up, he glanced at Huangfu Jixun from the corner of his eye, and at this moment Huangfu Jixun was standing on the side of him, and his soldiers and horses and the soldiers brought by King Qi were also standing on the left and right.
Li Congqing suddenly turned his head, and then walked behind the female wall, and Huangfu Jixun also took advantage of Li Yu's moment to rest and went to the side of the female wall.
Huangfu Jixun whispered: "King Qi, now is a good time, we just have enough soldiers and horses in our hands, and Li Yu is also extremely easy to control." β
Li Congqing's face was already obscene, he was confident that the entire palace was now controlled by his army, he nodded and said, "It's okay, show your and my brand now, and let Li Yu obediently submit." β
At this moment, suddenly an army entered from the gate of the west city outside, and met with Huangfu Jixun and Li Congqing, and when they saw Li Yu, they bowed their hands, and then nodded with Huangfu Jixun and Li Congqing.
Seeing this, Li Yu was also relieved in his heart, and finally waited for reinforcements.
It's just that the next moment something that made Li Yu depressed happened.
Li Congqing suddenly glared at Li Yu viciously, Li Yu saw that Li Congqing's face suddenly changed, and he suddenly felt a chill behind him, but he didn't know why.
The next moment, Li Congqing's expression changed, and Huangfu Jixun on the side took the opportunity to take out a big knife from his waist and pointed at Li Yu and the others: "You and a few others, all of them are standing in place and are not allowed to move." β
Li Yu was stunned by the sudden change, he thought that there were rebels behind him who were about to catch up, so he quickly gestured behind him and around with his eyes, but no rebels appeared.
At this moment, Li Congqing smiled evilly: "My good imperial brother, he is really innocent, hahaha-"
"Cousin, what do you mean by that?" Li Yu has been confused by Li Congqing's words, in order to avoid letting King Zheng's rebels catch up with him, Fang Cai Huangfu Jixun and Li Congqing personally escorted Li Yu's family out of the hall to escape from the palace to avoid trouble, but now the two of them changed their expressions all of a sudden.
Huangfu Jixun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you think King Zheng will attack the palace so easily?" β
"General Huangfu is right, Your Majesty, you are a blind cat crashing into a dead end, in fact, as long as you think about it calmly, you will know that as long as you think about any details, it will be simple." Li Congqing said this, shook his head with a wry smile.
Li Yu's body weakened when he heard this, and his heart seemed to have been immersed in an ice cave, and the cold did not melt.
"General Huangfu, keep a close watch on Your Majesty, Xiao Wang will come when he goes first."
After Li Congqing finished speaking, he went to see the brocade robe man according to the pre-reservation.
"King Qi rest assured, this place will be handed over to the last general, everything is assured."
At the urging of Huangfu Jixun, Li Yu and others were temporarily detained in a palace not far from the west wall of the inner city of the palace, while Li Yu and others stayed in this Chunhua Hall in frustration.
