Hearing this, Rong Shi brushed Xie Yaoguang's hand away, and then sneered, "Right now, this court situation is under your control, where do you need me to help you." ”

"Absolutely. I need you and Concubine Hui to protect the entire palace and block all the secret passages in the palace. Once King Shou is defeated, what you get is the merit of escorting, what do you think of this deal. ”

"Are you so sure that King Shou will be defeated?"

"No, but if Niangniang doesn't do it, once King Shou succeeds in usurping the throne, Empress Xu will not let you go. Things are urgent, mother, you still weigh it yourself. If Niangniang figured it out, she would send someone to send a letter to Penglai Palace, and Niangniang had better move faster, otherwise there would be no time. ”

When the words fell, Xie Yaoguang immediately turned around and left.

On the way back to Penglai Palace, Xie Yaoguang thought about it for a while, and felt that he had almost done what he needed to do after living in the palace for so many days, and it was time to go back.

Concubine Hui, who finally met Xie Yaoguang, was willing to let Xie Yaoguang leave, considering that it was really easy to be misunderstood if she lived in the palace for a long time. However, Xie Yaoguang had finished dinner and the two talked again, waiting for Xie Yaoguang to receive Rong's message. Before the key to the palace gate was dropped, he personally sent it to the palace gate to confirm that the person had left safely before leaving.

As expected, the men and horses of King Shou and King Yong, Ye Luan, quickly surrounded the Jingshi, and said that the King of Jin was in trouble in the name of the Qing monarch, and the court wanted Emperor Li to execute the King of Jin and set up King Shou as the crown prince to succeed the emperor.

Hearing this, Emperor Li, who was only sick, was naturally furious, spitting blood in his mouth above the court, almost falling out of a coma several times, and forcibly issued various response summons in one breath to stabilize people's hearts.

lest anyone try to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

Although it was surprising that King Shou's rebellion was surprising, what was even more surprising was that Emperor Li would reuse Li Qi and Lu Lingshan and entrust them with important tasks. These two people, one scholar and one martial artist, were the leaders of the court before they resigned, and the sudden reuse of this son has made many people feel that the great calendar will change.

As soon as King Shou came, he sent people under the city to shout and demand that Emperor Li execute the King of Jin. Of course, the soldiers in charge of defending the city naturally turned a deaf ear to King Shou's words, and ignored no matter how the rebels shouted.

The people in the city were also indifferent to this, and only a few people wanted to escape from the city, but they were all stopped by Huangfu Ling and others. However, in order to prevent Ye Linchen from learning the news, Xie Yaoguang rushed over desperately and wrote to Ye Linchen to inform him that the city was safe and sound, and he must not fall into the trap of others.

As a result, the situation in the city is still under control.

On the third day of King Shou's siege, King Jin's palace finally welcomed three distinguished guests at the same time.

"Master Lu, Master Li." Xie Yaoguang looked at the two people in front of him and nodded.

"Okay, what are you doing so politely." Li Qi looked at Xie Yaoguang with a smile and said softly: "Now that King Shou has besieged the city for three days, he mutters every day that as long as His Majesty is willing to order the execution of King Jin and make him the crown prince, they will immediately withdraw from the army." It's a short time, but I'm afraid that others won't be able to hold it back. ”

Hearing this, Lu Lingshan nodded and looked at Xie Yaoguang worriedly, and said in a deep voice: "My worries are the same as Li Qi, you have to understand that this city cannot be besieged anymore." Even though everyone knows that King Jin is meritorious and is a virtuous king, he can't cut off his livelihood because of King Jin. ”

"I know the two of you are worried about the distraction of the people and the situation getting out of control. So I'm going to test the tone of King Shou before making a decision. We still have a move outside and haven't come back...... He was the most critical step. Xie Yaoguang raised his head and looked at Huangfu Ling and said warmly.

"You're going to see King Shou in person? No, King Shou hates you so much that you can't go to see her in person. He frowned and glanced at her, and Li Qi persuaded him earnestly: "You can think of other ways." I will never agree to this matter of seeing King Shou. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Xie Yaoguang continued to explain softly, "Don't worry, I'm just going to see the city wall, and I won't go out of the city to see King Shou." By the way, Marquis Li, you can remember how many soldiers King Shou received this time, sent them to the capital, and incorporated the armies of the large and small passes near Gyeonggi. ”

"Ye Lan's men and horses were originally as many as 30,000, and now there are more than 30,000 people collected in the nearby passes, so now there are as many as 60,000 rebels besieging the city, and the Gyeonggi camp plus the forbidden army is only 20,000 people, how can they be the opponents of the rebels." Speaking of this, Li Qi lowered his head and sighed.

"Maybe that's enough. There are many battles in the history books that win more with less. Master Hou, I think when it is necessary, you need to ask Your Majesty for the Tiger Talisman to mobilize troops and horses to relieve the siege of the Beijing Division. Raising his eyes slightly, Xie Yaoguang frowned and chuckled, "I have the most suitable person here." ”

Hearing this, Li Qi smiled and said, "You mean King Jin?" Sure enough, all of your plans are paving the way for His Royal Highness King Jin. ”

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang laughed again, and his tone was a little softer, "Although His Royal Highness has made a lot of contributions, there is still a great merit left, and with this merit in his hands, the position of the crown prince is within reach." ”

"Okay, I'll take care of this for you." Saying that, Li Qi glanced at Lu Lingshan on the side, "Let's go, the old man will accompany you to the city to see how majestic those two rebels are." ”

"Not necessarily. It's better for you two to stay in the city and suppress those who are about to move, and I'll go see King Shou myself. After the words fell, Xie Yao turned around and left after collecting his clothes.

As soon as he came out of the Jin Palace, Xie Yaoguang did not immediately go to the city tower, but sent someone to Xie Mansion to pick up Princess Shou in the house arrest mansion. Although Princess Shou was imprisoned in the mansion for many days, Xie Yaoguang did not see her much.

This is the first time the two have met in such a long time. Looking at the withered Princess Shou in front of her, Xie Yaoguang shook her head and sighed.

After stretching out his hand to help Princess Shou into the carriage, Xie Yaoguang spoke gently, "Princess Niangniang, I took the liberty to invite you out to take you to meet someone." ”

"You're going to take me to King Shou?" After glancing at Xie Yaoguang, Princess Shou's gaze fell on her bulging lower abdomen, "You want me to persuade King Shou to withdraw from the army and wait for His Majesty's fate?"

"Not really. Don't you want to see him after you haven't seen each other for so long? Xie Yaoguang looked at Princess Shou with a smile.

When the words fell, Princess Jishou snorted coldly, closed her eyes and rested on the soft pillow.

After a while, the carriage traveled to the city gate, and it was Huang Fu Ling who was responsible for guarding the city gate today.

When he saw Xie Yaoguang coming, he walked over quickly with a happy face and arched his hand, "Miss Xie, why are you here?" It's so unsafe here, so you might as well go back. ”

"It doesn't matter." Xie Yaoguang stopped Huangfu Ling, and then looked at the closed city gate, and said in a soft tone, "King Shou, is he here today?" ”

"Not in recent days. But every day there would be others shouting at the gates. ”

"Who is coming today?"

"It seems to be the one who is called Jiang Huaixin."

When he asked this, Xie Yaoguang didn't care at all, and Princess Shou was still sitting in the carriage behind him.
