Taiming Palace, outside the imperial study, there were five or six ministers wearing yellow and purple official robes, these officials who can walk with their heads held high in Chang'an City on weekdays, but at this time, their heads are lowered, their backs are soaked with sweat, and some of their foreheads are even more bruised, which shows that they have already hit their heads on the ground and asked to see them before.

However, the door of the imperial study is still tightly closed, and the little eunuchs with their hands at the door do not squint, but looking at the sweat on their noses and foreheads, it can be seen that there is a lot of pressure to stand in front of such a group of bigwigs who are also county princes.

The public of Changping County rebelled, except for those soldiers and generals in Nancheng, the most panicked was this group of ministers who knelt in the imperial study and had a good relationship with Zhang Liang on weekdays.

These people are probably scolding their mothers in their hearts, scolding Zhang Liang for not doing a good job of the county prince, but they want to listen to the girls and warlocks talking nonsense and rebellion, as far as the five thousand guards in his southern city are concerned, they don't need the Yulin army to go out, and the soldiers and horses who came from the other three gates can destroy him.

What's more, there are still a thousand black cloud riders outside the city, and it is estimated that two round-trips can crush five thousand people. What is the co-master of the world, the lord of the bow chief should be another capital, it is completely a joke.

Unless he can contact the four guards and blockade Chang'an, and someone in the Yulin army must respond, so that he can take care of himself and open the gate of the imperial city to kill him, it is possible to take Chang'an.

Of course, this is just a possibility, after all, although the Black Cloud Cavalry is a heavy cavalry, it can't crash into the gate of Chang'an City, if the defenders of the Four Gates and the Yulin Army rebel, then relying on the Yuntai Division will not play a role at all.

Of course, with Zhang Liang's ability, not to mention plotting against the Yulin Army, even the other three guards can't handle it, and he has been quite loose in governing the army over the years, I'm afraid that even the thousands of soldiers and horses guarding the city under him may not be able to mobilize to rebel.

As for who can do this, those who knelt outside the imperial study thought about it carefully, and a candidate jumped out of their hearts, and their lowered heads couldn't help but lower even deeper.

When the first emperor died of illness, the four gates of Chang'an were all closed overnight, and then Emperor Yan, who was still the king of Jin at that time, entered the palace, summoned hundreds of officials to read the holy decree, and ascended the throne three days later to announce to the world.

If anyone in Chang'an City can do this now, His Royal Highness King Xiang may be a little possible, of course, this idea can only be buried in the hearts of everyone, and no one dares to speak.

The prince kneeling outside the imperial study did not dare to leave without His Majesty's forgiveness, and in the imperial study with the door closed, Emperor Yan, dressed in blue and purple regular clothes, was standing at the window, looking at a sparrow standing on the treetops not far away.

Behind him stood a man dressed in white, his expression calm and indifferent. There was also a middle-aged eunuch standing by the door, wearing a robe with a big red round neck and wide sleeves, with his hands in his sleeves and a humble smile on his face all the time, even if no one looked at him.

There was silence in the imperial study for a long time, and Shangguan Yuting, who was dressed in white, and Feng Yuanyi, the great eunuch, stood motionless without making the slightest sound.

"Shangguan, did you say that Zhang Liang really wanted to rebel?" Emperor Yan, who had been silent for a long time, spoke, his eyes still falling on the sparrow.

"Back to Your Majesty, Zhang Liang privately raised five hundred adopted sons, which is already close to the limit of the soldiers of the county government, if he has no antirighteousness, how can he act like this, let alone imply that the warlock writes fictional proverbs." Shangguan Yuting replied calmly.

When Emperor Yan heard this, his eyes drooped slightly, and he sighed and said: "When Hou Junji was demoted from Chang'an, although I knew that he was opposed, I remembered that I had fought with me for many years and made a lot of contributions, so Zhang Liang entered the palace and said that Hou Junji intended to provoke him to rebel, but he didn't have to say much. Although Hou Junji has been ambushed for rebellion, he didn't expect Zhang Liang to also embark on this old road, even bigger than Hou Junji's heart. ”

Shangguan Yuting was silent and did not say anything, and Emperor Yan still said to himself: "Five hundred righteous sons, why not rebel, Zhang Liang is honest on the outside and treacherous on the inside, and I remember that he has made outstanding achievements, and he is crowned the county prince and ordered him to guard the south gate, but he still can't feed his ambitions."

There is only one in this world, and I got it so hard back then, how can I give it up, the person who covets it really deserves to die, it really deserves to die. ”

The sparrow standing on the willow treetops in the imperial garden fluttered its wings and flew, and Emperor Yan's gaze gradually became sharp and majestic, and he turned to look at Shangguan Yuting and said in a slightly cold voice: "Spread my will, order the three divisions to thoroughly investigate this case, and not tolerate one person." Tomorrow morning, the court will discuss this matter, and all officials must be present, otherwise they will be criminalized. ”

Shangguan Yuting and Feng Yuanyi bowed down at the same time.

Emperor Yan waved his hand, his face showed a hint of exhaustion, and said softly: "Shangguan, Chang'an has been comfortable for too long, it seems that many people have forgotten their duties and rules, take advantage of this matter to teach them." ”

"Yes." Shangguan Yuting bowed his head and walked towards the door, and the little eunuch outside the door hurriedly opened the door and let Shangguan Yuting walk out of the door.

"Your Majesty, those nobles outside the door ......" Feng Yuanyi bowed and asked softly.

"Let them kneel if they like to kneel, and if there is no ghost in their hearts, there is no need to come here to show their loyalty. I was tired, and drove back to the Qianyuan Palace. Emperor Yan said in a slightly cold voice, brushing his sleeves and walking towards the door.

The door of the imperial study slowly opened, Emperor Yan walked out of the door with a cold face, Feng Yuanyi bowed slightly to follow, and the little eunuchs on the side also brought Long Yuan.

Those ministers who knelt outside the imperial study hurriedly shouted their loyalty, and some people kept kowtowing, and their foreheads were bleeding, but Emperor Yan didn't even look at it, and it was all useless.

Long Yuan walked away, and everyone kneeling outside the imperial study looked at each other, all of them were like ashes, and they were silent for a while before they stood up with each other, whispered a few words, and walked towards the outside of the palace.

……

Xiude Fang, Xiangwang Mansion, at this time, the door of the house is closed, there is not even a family at the door, only two majestic stone lions stand alone at the door.

Compared with the empty outside of the mansion, in the Xiangwang Mansion, which covers an extremely wide area, there are many people walking back and forth in a hurry at this time.

The maids and servants in the palace were warned to stay in the room early in the morning and not to come out, and the rules of King Xiang's subordinates were extremely strict, except for the necessary servants in the kitchen, the other family members stayed in their own rooms, because they did not know what was going on, so they could only stay in fear.

In the center of Xiangwang's Mansion, in a secluded courtyard, there is a study room without a window, and only an oil lamp is lit in the dim room to illuminate this not very large room.

There were not many things in the room, a desk, two chairs, and only a dozen books on the shelves behind the desk. Because there are no windows and the door is closed, it looks a little oppressive.

At this time, there were only two people in the room, a young man in purple clothes, a thin middle-aged man with long eyebrows and short eyes, and very small eyes. (To be continued.) )
