Chapter 447: Creation and Destruction (II)
The soldiers led the soldiers into the palace, there was no room for turnaround, Su Yan hurriedly looked for Liu Yu's figure in a frightened look, but unfortunately Liu Yu was not listed.
Su Bi was tied up at this time, but her waist was also very straight, and there was a momentum in her tone: "Who took the lead in the rebellion, is it you, Hua Ji'an, you, a rebel minister who rebels against the king, will not be allowed to rebel against the king first, and then not to be allowed in the court, shameless and treacherous thieves, not afraid of being scolded by the people of the world for ten thousand years?" ”
This is the first time Hua Ji'an has seen this legendary domineering four princesses, the heroines in the court, in the face of questioning, Hua Ji'an is very calm, after all, he is just acting on orders, this time leading troops into the palace, Qi Fang is the principal.
At this time, a small young man came out of the generals, took a short gun and put the muzzle of the gun against Su Bi's head, and shouted: "You evil woman, who are you scolding, are you looking for a collapse?" Master, I'll fulfill you! ”
It's cholerosis.
This time there was no chance for Huo Yi to charge into battle, which had already made Huo Yi very dissatisfied, and he followed the flow of people into the palace, and there was very little resistance everywhere, and now there was another woman yelling at them, which naturally caused him to hate. He hated to use Subi to practice his guns.
Su Bi saw the ferocity of Huo Ill, and she couldn't use her anger, so she could only turn to her husband, hating why he wanted to defect to the enemy and commit treason.
At this time, Qi Fang, Hua Ji'an and others were already forcing Su Yan on the warm kang, and Su Yan shrank to the innermost corner of the kang, holding the jade seal as if he was going to smash people, and the general in front of him had good endurance and was not in a hurry to do anything to him.
"You ...... Are you here to kill me? Su Yan spoke, his tone was a little sad and a little desolate.
Hua Ji'an looked at Su Yan. There was some disdain in his tone: "The emperor doesn't need to be frightened. We have not received an order to kill His Majesty. But Your Majesty can't continue here, and from now on, you have to abdicate......"
"Retire?" Su Yan almost cried, he knew what this meant, no king could continue to live unharmed after abdication, even if he took the initiative to take the throne. He still understands this.
"I ...... Can I meet the master? Su Yan made a request after the end, and in the face of the desperate road, all he could think of was his good master.
"I'm sorry for the former emperor." Flower set Antao. "The general is just following orders, and it is General Liu who gives orders to this general, whether General Liu is willing to see you or not, this general has no right to call the shots!"
Hearing Hua Ji'an say this, a life-saving straw that was most pressing on Su Yan's heart was also broken.
Su Yan and Su Bi, one is the emperor and the other is the princess, the highest power person who rules the country, but at this time, they were like prisoners, and they were escorted out of the Yaqian Hall by a group of soldiers. At this time, several fires in the palace have been extinguished, and the clear snow scene in the middle of the night is gone. Su Yan was pushed out of the door, staggering, but he still looked back at the direction of the inner court, and remembered Sun Xiaoyu, who was pregnant.
After pampering Cao Yi, he hadn't seen Sun Xiaoyu for a long time, two couples from tribulation, although they were also rich and noble, he still welcomed the new and forgot the old. has been the emperor for more than a year, and there are no less than ten concubines around him. The moment he lost the throne, he remembered how virtuous Sun Xiaoyu was, and how stable and fulfilling the life they lived together in the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion was.
He wanted to beg Hua Ji'an to let him meet Sun Xiaoyu, but when he saw Hua Ji'an's unkind face, he could only sigh, knowing that it was futile to say anything at this time.
…………
On the fifth night of the first month of the second year of Qichang in the Dashun Dynasty, the war in Chang'an City has been continuing.
From Chai Jin opening the city gate to welcome the army led by Qi Fang into the city, to Su Yan being pushed off the throne, it lasted only a little more than an hour, and the rebels attacked the palace in the simplest and rude way, directly ending the debate between justice and betrayal with the abdication of the supreme ruler. But at this time in Chang'an City, not all the troops have been surrendered, after all, there are still loyal people in the imperial court, and the soldiers and horses of the southern Chang'an battalion are still based on the southwest outer city, and they are circling the most behind the rebels.
Liu Yu was not in a hurry to enter the palace.
For Liu Yu, this is already a naked military coup, from the moment he began to appear, in fact, he was also observing, to see if he could have room for ease with the imperial court, when he found that his contradictions with the imperial court were irreconcilable, he resolutely chose a military coup. Even if he bears the infamy of a usurper who has been stinking for thousands of years.
Infamy is not important, for him, life is the most important thing, family life is what he wants, even if he needs to do whatever it takes to get it.
The most elite army in Chang'an City is the Imperial Forest Army, but after Liu Yu put forward the slogan of the Qing monarch's side, led by Qu Zhu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, the middle and high-level generals of the Imperial Forest Army have basically established a policy of non-resistance, but they have not joined this power struggle, but chose to "watch from the sidelines". Qu Zhu's compromise left the entire palace undefended. Although some of the Imperial Guards still disobeyed orders and chose to resist, these were small forces, and they were unable to form an effective resistance after the rebels entered the palace.
Before the rebels entered the palace, Li Mi had full control of the military power of the Yamen of the Sixth Defense Division, and the Sixth Defense Division was also in a wait-and-see posture in this battle.
Liu Yu's intention is very simple, but as long as the garrison of Chang'an City does not participate in this power struggle, it means that the victory and defeat have been divided. He didn't need the help of the internal forces until everything settled, all he had to do was to disintegrate all the forces of resistance layer by layer, and then negotiate the allegiance of the Chang'an City garrison.
Before the dust settles, Liu Yu will not set foot in the palace, he wants to be a full-powered commander to pacify all the rebel troops in Chang'an City, he will not leave any trouble, and it is also taboo to cut the grass without eradicating the roots.
When it was close to the fifth watch, there was an internal turmoil in the South Chang'an Battalion, which was the most stubborn and stubborn in the corner, and Liu Yu's old subordinates took the opportunity to seize power, and Qu Shu, the former commander of the Dongshui Battalion, who temporarily commanded the South Chang'an Battalion and the Dongshui Battalion, died in this turmoil, and the Southern Chang'an Battalion was completely surrendered.
The pacification of the southern Chang'an camp meant that Liu Yu had broken up all rival military forces in Chang'an overnight and controlled the military power of Chang'an City. That's when he set foot in the palace.
…………
Liu Yu has entered the palace many times, from the first time he came in as Xu Xuanzhu's fiancé and the former lieutenant of the female army, to now he is the leader of the rebels, and this period is only two years. So much had happened in the past two years that after entering the palace, he suddenly couldn't remember whether he had come in through the main gate or the Dongye Gate for the first time.
Liu Yu didn't expect that he would suddenly get entangled in such a tangled problem, as if it was a plot that could not be abandoned, after entering the palace, he still looked around as he did when he first came in, and estimated the grandeur of the palace.
He also knew that after tonight, the palace would have a different owner.
Liu Yu stood at the main gate of the palace and sighed, the time in winter is still close to two hours before dawn. There was so much going on that night that he needed to settle down before he understood his state of mind.
After Hua Ji'an, Huo Ai, Zhang Wuzhu and others got the news that Liu Yu had entered the palace, they had already greeted him and reported to Liu Yu about the situation in the palace at this time.
Speaking of which, the situation is not complicated, and there is no such tragic situation as the destruction of the country and the collapse of the family.
"The emperor of the Shun Dynasty and the four princesses of the Shun Dynasty have been imprisoned in the Imperial Forest Military Office, there is chaos in the inner court, and there are not a few palace maids and eunuchs who have gone out of the city from Bei'anmen privately, and some of them have been killed by the rebels near the Nanqu, and there is no news of the rebels entering the palace......"
The news in the palace is very fragmentary, Liu Yu actually doesn't care, he just needs to know that Su Yan is not dead now, and the general trend is enough. But Hua Ji'an's report was very detailed, for fear that Liu Yu would blame Liu Yu for missing any news, and when it came to the worst of the day, Liu Yu was just listening quietly, and Liu Yu's eyes seemed to be looking around for something.
“…… The Imperial Forest Army is still unstable, is it necessary to disband the Imperial Forest Army to achieve complete stability in Chang'an City? ”
Hua Ji'an's request after the last effort made Liu Yu turn back to his senses. Liu Yu was slightly stunned, the Imperial Forest Army was unstable? smiled faintly in his heart, in fact, Liu Yue asked himself as a last resort, but Hua Ji'an was obviously more cautious and vicious than him, if Hua Ji'an was allowed to carry out this coup, it would definitely not be so gentle, Chang'an City was destined to need a bloody storm.
"No need, the matter of the Royal Forest Army will be put aside for the time being." Liu Yu said, "Go in with Benhou to meet the emperor." ”
This is the first sentence that Liu Yu said to these subordinates after the general situation has been decided, and it also seems to be a sentence to clarify the position, these Huo Yi and Zhang Wuzhu and other martial artists may not understand, but Hua Ji'an and some military generals from Wenchen can figure it out, Liu Yu seems to have the meaning of being soft-hearted.
This time, Liu Yu nominally led troops into the palace for the purpose of "Qingjun's side", but in fact it was already a coup d'état, and there was no turning back from the bow, and now Liu Yu is already a nominal emperor. Of course, there are many other gentle ways to do this.
Liu Yue did not think of himself as a general, nor did he mean to be the son of heaven, he still called himself "Ben Hou", and his title for Su Yan did not change, some subordinates will inevitably think, does Liu Yue want to let Su Yan go and continue to support Su Yan as a puppet emperor?
Just when some of Liu Yu's subordinates had doubts in their hearts, Liu Yu suddenly stopped after walking a few steps outside, turned to Hua Ji'an and ordered: "Prepare a pot of poisonous wine, and General Ben is going to meet the former Son of Heaven and have a drink with him." ”
Liu Yu said this, as if he was correcting his previous mistakes.
Liu Yu said this, and there is no need for people to speculate about anything. In fact, the people present also understood that even if Liu Yu let Su Yan go, Su Yan would not let him go when he turned around. In this life-and-death contest, Liu Yu has already won the victory, as the winner, there is no reason to leave troubles behind, and make his life difficult in the future. (To be continued......)
