Zhuge Weiming was restlessly waiting for news from Pingyang City.

"Report ......" A soldier hurriedly ran in, and said happily to Zhuge Weiming, "Lord Wang, Pingyang is defended, and King Zhao and they have retreated." ”

Zhuge Weiming immediately stood up from his chair happily when he heard this, "Really? ”

When the soldier heard this, he immediately bowed down and said, "It's true, the second prince of the White Tiger Kingdom arrived in time with a large army and surrounded King Zhao's army, forcing them to retreat." ”

Zhuge Weiming's eyes flashed with a glint when he heard this, this time he owed Xuanyuan Hao a favor.

A little eunuch walked into the imperial room and bowed to Zhuge Weiming and said, "Lord Qiqi, General Yang Qiong beside the second prince of the White Tiger Kingdom asks to see you." ”

Zhuge Weiming narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, frowned and said, "Xuan." ”

"Yes." The little eunuch bowed down and couldn't retreat when he heard this, and after a while, he led a burly military general in.

The military general walked in a tiger step, without squinting, and walked straight towards Zhuge Weiming.

Zhuge Weiming looked at the majestic face of the general, and couldn't help frowning, Yang Qiong, the most powerful general under Xuanyuan Hao, it is also because of him that Xuanyuan Hao was able to bring out 100,000 soldiers and horses from Xuanwu, this person is not as big as he seems on the surface.

Yang Qiong walked up to Zhuge Weiming, bowed slightly towards him and said, "See the regent of Xuanwu." ”

Zhuge Weiming looked at Yang Qiong, coughed lightly and said, "Why did General Yang come to see this king at this time, but the second prince has something?" ”

Yang Qiong bowed down and replied when she heard this, "Lord Qiqi, our second prince has something to say to the prince." ”

Zhuge Weiming frowned violently when he heard this, and a touch of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "What words?" There was a slight anger in the cold voice.

Feeling Zhuge Weiming's displeasure, Yang Qiong still said without humility or arrogance, "Our second prince asks the prince not to forget the promise you made. ”

Zhuge Weiming's face was cold when he heard this, and he snorted coldly, "This king is a word, your second prince is too villainous to live in the belly of a gentleman, not to mention that this king's holy decree has been given to him, what else does he have to worry about." ”

Yang Qiong immediately lowered her eyes when she heard this, "Don't misunderstand, the second prince of our second prince doesn't mean to disbelieve the prince, he just wants to remind the prince." ”

The anger in Zhuge Weiming's eyes was even deeper when he heard this, what kind of thing was he Xuanyuan Hao, and he deserved to remind him, if it wasn't for the fact that he still had some effect, where could he bear this breath of bird's anger.

Zhuge Weiming took a deep breath, restrained his emotions, and looked at Yang Qiong's eyes narrowed slightly, "Go back and tell you the second prince, this time the king of Pingyang has written down, this king will never forget his merits, let him guard Pingyang with peace of mind, when this king is done, it is also the time when he returns to the White Tiger." ”

Hearing this, Yang Qiong bowed down again and said, "This is very good, and the general will retire." Yang Qiong said and turned around and strode away.

After Yang Qiong left, Zhuge Weiming was so angry that he directly swept all the things on the table to the ground, damn Xuanyuan Hao, damn Xiahou Xun, damn Lian Taichu, all dared to climb on his head and shit, really when he Zhuge Weiming was easy to bully, it seems that he must ascend the throne as soon as possible, and when he sits on the throne, he must kill them all.

In the Ruyang conference hall, Xiahou Xun sat in the first place, followed by Lian Taichu, Fang Pengyuan, and a group of generals.

Xiahou Xun looked at Fang Pengyuan, who was sitting first on his left hand, and said, "Strategist, you can find out who is in command of that strange army." ”

When Fang Pengyuan heard this, he immediately got up and said, "Lord Qiqi, according to the information investigated by his subordinates, it was Xuanyuan Hao, the second prince of the White Tiger Kingdom, who helped Zhuge Weiming last night. ”

Xuanyuan Hao? Xiahou Xun's brows furrowed suddenly when he heard this, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, if someone from the White Tiger Country intervened, then this matter would be complicated, now the White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Qinglong are connected, if they all help Zhuge Weiming, then he has no chance of winning at all.

Lian Tai was also puzzled when he heard this, "Why does this second prince of the White Tiger Kingdom want to meddle in the affairs of our Xuanwu Kingdom." "There has always been a river water between the four countries, why did they White Tiger suddenly intervene in the Xuanwu civil strife, could it be that the little emperor attacked the White Tiger last time and angered the White Tiger Lord, so he sent the second prince to Xuanwu to take revenge? Lian Taichu thought about it and instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

As if seeing Xiahou Xun and Lian Taichu's worries, Fang Pengyuan explained, "According to the news from the spies, this Xuanyuan Hao was expelled by the White Tiger Lord some time ago because of plotting to kill the lord of the country and usurp the throne, and he is no longer the second prince of the White Tiger. ”

Xiahou Xun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it was not that the white tiger wanted to interfere.

Suddenly thinking of something, Xiahou Xun raised his eyes and looked at Fang Peng from afar, "How many people did this Xuanyuan Hao bring in total." ”

When Fang Pengyuan heard this, he immediately replied, "It's not much, it's only 100,000." ”

Xiahou Xun nodded lightly when he heard this, thinking that a down-and-out prince who had lost his position would not have too many soldiers and horses.

Xiahou Xun frowned and pondered for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at the people below, "Everyone also saw the situation last night, do you have any good countermeasures?" ”

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and soon a general stood up and bowed down and said, "My subordinates think that we still have to find a way to capture Pingyang, as long as we occupy Pingyang again, the prince's great things will be accomplished." ”

Xiahou Xun nodded when he heard this, and did not say good or bad, but turned to Lian Taichu who was on the side and said, "What does General Lian think?" ”

When Lian Taichu heard this, he got up and said, "My subordinates think that the prince should return to the imperial city as soon as possible, and with his unclear temperament, he may ascend the throne in advance." ”

Xiahou Xun's brows furrowed when he heard this, and a solemnity flashed in his eyes, Zhuge Weiming must not be allowed to ascend the throne, otherwise everything he did would be meaningless.

Fang Pengyuan also said when he heard this, "My subordinates think that what General Lian said is extremely true, the prince should return to the imperial city as soon as possible to prevent Zhuge Weiming from ascending the throne, and as for the matter of Pingyang, the prince can hand it over to General Lian." ”

Xiahou Xun nodded when he heard this, got up and bowed slightly to Lian Taichu, "In this case, the matter of Pingyang will be handed over to General Lian." ”

Seeing this, Lian Taichu immediately moved away, bowed slightly to Xiahou Xun and said, "Your subordinates will do their best." ”

The next day, early in the morning, Zhuge Weiming went directly to the Xuanwu Hall in a dragon robe.

The civil and military officials of the Xuanwu Hall looked at Zhuge Weiming, who was dressed in a dragon robe, and their faces changed greatly, and they all began to whisper.

"Are my eyes spent, why did the regent wear a dragon robe?"

"This regent is also too bold, he used to wear a python robe every day, but now he even dares to wear a dragon robe."

"It's a big rebellion, it's a big rebellion......"

Listening to the whispers of the civil and military officials, Zhuge Weiming's eyes flashed with displeasure, coughed lightly, and said loudly, "Everyone knows that the emperor has been missing for many days, and yesterday the king received news that the soldiers on the northwest border have found the emperor's body. ”

When everyone heard this, they instantly exploded.

"Is what he said true, did the emperor really die?"

"Is it true, how could the emperor say that it is gone?"

"Maybe it's true, didn't I hear that the Queen Mother fainted a few days ago?

Listening to everyone's words, Zhuge Weiming gave the little eunuch next to him a look, and the little eunuch immediately quietly withdrew from the Xuanwu Palace.

After a while, two little eunuchs carried a stretcher into the Xuanwu Hall, the stretcher was covered with a layer of white cloth, and under the white cloth looked like a person, who looked only eight or nine years old.

The two little eunuchs gently lifted the stretcher to the top of the jade steps and bowed out.

Everyone looked at the stretcher, and they all looked at each other.

Suddenly, Zhuge Weiming knelt down on the stretcher, "Your Majesty, it's this king who can't stand you and didn't save you in time...... There was a little choking in his sad voice, so that people couldn't tell the truth or falsehood.

When the ministers saw Zhuge Weiming kneeling, they all knelt down.

The emperor really died.

The emperor is only eight years old, what a pitiful!

The emperor died, what should the queen mother do, and what should Xuanwu do?

The ministers kneeling on the ground had different thoughts, some showed their true feelings and looked sad, some pretended to wipe their tears and pretended to cry, and some looked suspicious and their eyes were shining.

After crying for a while, Zhuge Weiming stood up, looked at the ministers, and said with a sad face, "The emperor died, this king has a great responsibility, this king is ashamed of the entrustment of the first emperor, as the emperor's own uncle, this king has the responsibility to protect Xuanwu for the emperor, the country cannot be without a king for a day, this king decided to ascend the throne on the same day." ”

As soon as Zhuge Weiming's words were finished, the ministers became excited again.

Prime Minister Fang Ye, who was standing at the top of the hundred officials, heard this, got up and looked at Zhuge Weiming and said, "The regent's words, the old minister thinks it's inappropriate, the emperor has just died, what we need to do most now is to find out the cause of the emperor's death, and to handle the emperor's aftermath well, as for the fact that the new emperor is elected, we are not in a hurry." ”

A cold light flashed in Zhuge Weiming's eyes when he heard this, and before he could speak, the Ministry of Rites stood up and said, "What the prime minister said is extremely true, although the emperor is young, he is also the emperor of our Xuanwu, and he must not end it so hastily." ”

"The matter of ascending the throne is very important, and I think that we need to discuss it carefully before we can decide who will take the throne." The rite department was followed by the military department.

Zhuge Weiming instantly became angry when he heard this, "Bold, Lord Qin, do you mean that this king is not qualified to inherit the throne?" "This military department was originally Lian Taichu's deputy general, who used to be neutral and didn't stand in any team, but now that Lian Taichu is following Xiahou Xun, he is also standing fast.

The military department still listened to Zhuge Weiming's roar, lowered his eyes, and did not have the slightest fear on his face.

The Ministry of Rites Shang saw that Zhuge Weiming was angry, and immediately came out to play the round and said, "The regent is angry, Weichen thinks that the new emperor can't be in a hurry to ascend the throne, how can he choose a date, it's too hasty to ascend the throne in such a hurry." ”

"Lord Zhao has arrived!" Just when the atmosphere of the Xuanwu Hall was solemn, the voice of the eunuch sounded outside the door.
