Emperor Zhao took a step back dejectedly, his body shook, and although Concubine Hui was afraid of death when she saw this, she still stepped forward to support her husband. The more times like this, the more she has to behave a little more generously.

If crying solves the problem, she promises to be the first to cry.

"This rebel!" Emperor Zhao was supported by his beloved concubine, and then his mind was slightly settled, and the current situation did not need to be explained by others, he also saw it clearly, King Kang was assigned by him to arrange the aftermath of Concubine Min, and now the unknown army attacked the imperial tomb, and it was a soft horn, how could King Kang not know in advance?

"Where's King An!" Emperor Zhao raised his eyebrows and said angrily.

King An ran out of the crowd and knelt directly in front of Emperor Zhao, "Father, the son is here." While he was prostrate on the ground, he was sincerely afraid, "Father Mingjian, the son has no connection with King Kang." If Erchen also participated in King Kang's affairs, Erchen would not be here now. ”

Xiao Yunmo watched coldly, it was about his brother, and he couldn't say anything.

"Come, protect King An." Emperor Zhao glared at His Royal Highness King An, and felt that what he said was also reasonable, after all, he was his own son, and now he arrested someone without any evidence, which is inevitable. So he called two guards and put His Royal Highness King An and his eunuch aside.

"Father, there are still people outside." Xiao Yunmo has now made up his mind, and said to Emperor Zhao with his fists, "They were the ones who beat the drum just now, Erchen thought, probably those people are here to help us." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Emperor Zhao's eyebrows fell, and he asked urgently.

"Father, please see. This is a note from Princess Luocheng to Erchen, Princess Luocheng warned Erchen, which means that she has returned to the capital with Qin Shao. Xiao Yunmo unfolded the note and presented it.

Emperor Zhao took the note and unfolded it to look at it, "Are you sure this is the handwriting of Los Angeles?" ”

"Erchen is sure that this is his cousin's handwriting, and King Pingjiang has also confirmed it." Xiao Yunmo said.

Emperor Zhao's heart calmed down a little, "I once gave Qin Shao a secret decree, if it is in a crisis, you can call the military horses of the Jinyi Weinan battalion. He himself remembered his will, "You mean, could it be that Luo Cheng and Qin Shao brought people over?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Yunmo said, "Erchen just went out for a while, although there are many people outside, but the attack is not fast, it can be seen that it has been interfered with, otherwise with the guards of our imperial tomb and the thousand guards we brought, they will not be able to withstand such a long time." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go out and see the situation." General Li said with his fists clenched.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is also willing to accompany General Li to go together." Pingjiang Wang also came up and hugged his fists and said. "If it is really Shao'er and Allure who are here, then our siege can be solved."

Emperor Zhao looked around, and saw that the people who followed him into the underground palace were either the harem or dozens of important ministers of the previous dynasty, but among them, the military generals, that is, General Li Da and King Pingjiang, and a few old generals, he sighed lowly, "The three of us, we have been together since we were young, and we have been stormy for many years, and I can't imagine that we will have to experience such a predicament together when we are old." Well, you guys go and see, but be careful. Emperor Zhao whispered.

What he said moved made General Li and King Pingjiang stiffen, and the two of them bent down deeply and shook Emperor Zhao to the end, "Your Majesty rest assured, Your Majesty is the true dragon son of heaven, and he has his own Tiangang flicker." The rebellious ministers and thieves will not hurt His Majesty in the slightest, and the old minister will go back when he goes. King Pingjiang said.

His wife is outside, and his daughter is probably fighting with the rebels and thieves, so how can he sit in this dungeon and do nothing.

General Li is also the old tears of Emperor Zhao's words, he has been a horse in his life, accompanied by Emperor Zhao when he was a teenager, and stationed in Mobei for Emperor Zhao as an adult, holding heavy troops, but Emperor Zhao never suspected him, so that he could show his strength in Mobei, just for Emperor Zhao's trust in him, today is to let him give up his life He is also unresigned. "Your Majesty, if the old minister is at fault, please take care of my only daughter on your Majesty's behalf." After speaking, he fell to his knees and wanted to kowtow to Emperor Zhao, but was stopped by Emperor Zhao, "From afar, I don't allow you to have anything." ”

General Li Da's arm was held by Emperor Zhao, gritted his teeth and nodded, and then King Pingjiang walked out of the underground palace one by one.

The guards of the imperial tomb guarding the gate of the underground palace saw that it was King Pingjiang and General Li who came out, and hurriedly handed over two shields, "Lord Wang, the general is careful, I don't know what's wrong, just now the outside was still attacking, but now it's releasing arrows inside." ”

As soon as the guards' words fell, another burst of arrows flew, although the king of Pingjiang and General Li were in high positions, they were both fierce generals when they were young, and they skillfully raised their shields in front of them, "The sword comes." King Pingjiang glared angrily, "Where did they attack?" ”

"I'm afraid that I have already taken the treasure hall now." The guards said, and they hurriedly found swords from their colleagues who had been killed by arrows on the side, and handed them to King Pingjiang and General Li respectively.

When General Li heard this, he couldn't help but glance at King Pingjiang, "Princess, she ......" He wanted to speak and stopped.

"The princess is with the other ladies of the Command." The corners of Pingjiang's eyes were slightly red, but his voice was still very calm, "Let's go and see the situation first." The two of them walked outward, followed closely by a small group of guards.

Ye Chengcheng has already sent someone to investigate, and the Rouran people are surrounding the imperial tomb. There are four gates in the Imperial Mausoleum Palace, which are located in the east, west, north and south. When King Kang ordered an attack on the Imperial Tomb, Ye Chengcheng had already ordered Li Zhen and Xue Ning to return to the west gate of the Imperial Tomb with two thousand cavalry, and she asked all the people in the Jinyi Weinan battalion to attack the east gate and the north gate in two ways.

King Kang's people are indeed more than hers, but the share is scattered in the four gates, King Kang's main force is near the east gate and the north gate, and the people are scattered by the west gate and the south gate, and King Kang does not have any advantage in terms of numbers, but Ye Chengcheng takes advantage of it.

Therefore, Ye Tingcheng followed King Kang's Rouran soldiers and launched an offensive against the Rouran people, and King Kang's people were surrounded by Ye Tingcheng in the imperial tomb after breaking the gate, and those who did not have time to enter the imperial tomb were all killed by Ye Tingcheng and his horse.

When King Kang saw this posture, the person who came was from the Jinyi Weinan camp, and he was a little flustered.

"Lord Zhang is King An's people, how could they mobilize Nan Daying here at this time?" King Kang asked himself, and then shouted that it was not good. If the people from Nandaying appear here, it proves that Master Zhang has been exposed. Who is it?

Who detained Lord Zhang at this juncture and brought Nandaying to the Imperial Mausoleum?

"Who is the one leading the troops?" King Kang roared.

"Back to the prince. It was a young man, dressed in a golden-brown flying fish suit, and looked like a commanding officer. It was far away and couldn't see clearly, but it was a female brocade guard who commanded the battle in front. ”

"How is that possible?" King Kang pulled the person over, the female brocade guard would not be anyone else except Ye Tingcheng, and Jian'an clearly said that Ye Tingcheng and Qin Shao both died in the territory of Rouran, and Nangong Yu was buried with them, and they all died in the avalanche. Why did you suddenly return to the girder?

He grabbed the man, stunned for a moment, and then let the person go, "Look again!" ”

"Yes," the man ran out on all fours, as if he had been pardoned.

If it was really Ye Tingcheng who came back, the young man in the golden-brown flying fish suit must be Qin Shao, except for him, there was no other commander in Jinyiwei who was so young.

King Kang is a little unstable now, originally he thought that today's things were nine out of ten, he and King An are one mile and one outside, echoing inside and outside, what will be the variables? He got 30,000 Rouran cavalry to the capital, and hid in the mountains and forests near the imperial tomb, spent so much silver to buy the commander of the southern battalion, and spent so much silver to raise these cavalry, Raquel Khan was very good, he only borrowed soldiers, did not pay money, and the cost of raising soldiers was all taken by King Kang, he was demoted to guard the imperial tomb, half of the family property has been confiscated, and the money for raising soldiers is all from King An. Although he didn't know how King An could suddenly be so rich, rich enough to support an army.

But now that he thought about it, he felt as if he had been caught in some fog.

What is King Ann doing inside? He was besieged outside, didn't King An act? Do you have to wait for him and Ye Tingcheng to fight a fish and die in the net before he acts?

Or is there something on his side, and King An was arrested by his father inside?

"Lord Wang, that female brocade guard leads people to attack fiercely." Just when King Kang was in a deep fog and thinking wildly, one of his subordinates ran in, "I'm afraid that the east gate and the north gate will soon be overwhelmed." ”

"Mobilize Simon's men to come, and some of them must resist it." King Kang finally felt a hint of panic, and he said urgently.

"Yes."

"Isn't there a single door to be breached?" King Kang asked anxiously.

"Yes. The south gate was broken, and our people had reached the top of the treasure hall and arrested a group of noble ladies. The man said, "But it is a little difficult to go inside, and the Praetorian Guards and Imperial Tomb guards inside also resist fiercely, and for a while, there are not many of our people entering, and it is difficult to break through." ”

When King Kang heard this, he immediately patted his head, "Hostage!" We have hostages! He was like a person who had sunk to the bottom of the water and suddenly grabbed a straw, "The women of the court should be all above the treasure hall, you go and bring them all!" I don't believe it, those people don't even care about their own families, wives and children! ”

He pushed his subordinates, "Send the order to escort all the noble women and their children who can be found!" ”

is to take 10,000 steps back, he is really defeated, and he will let the imperial tomb bleed for thousands of miles, and let so many people accompany him to be martyred.

Ye Chengcheng, Qin Shao, your relatives are in my hands, even if the two of you have hands and eyes to the sky, how can you still bear me? King Kang laughed like crazy.

In fact, the Praetorian Guards and the Imperial Tomb guards inside have reached the end of the crossbow, their leader has been killed, and now they are in the stage of the dragons without a leader, seeing that they are about to be attacked by the Rouran people outside, everyone's hearts are dead, everyone knows that as long as people come in, they will definitely die.

Just when everyone was upset, the king of Pingjiang came with a sword.

"Listen to General Li's orders!" King Pingjiang raised the sword in his hand, "Don't panic!" He shouted.

He was originally wearing a Su white filial piety robe, but the plain white filial piety dress was embroidered with a golden dragon python, which shone in the afterglow of the evening, and it was particularly eye-catching in a white flowery shirt.

"I am the king of Pingjiang!" King Pingjiang raised his arms and shouted.

"It's the prince!" The guards and imperial tomb guards who had already lost their fighting spirit couldn't help but be shocked when they saw that it was King Pingjiang who came out of the underground palace and fought side by side with them. "He's General Li!" Seeing the effective fruit of his shout, King Pingjiang pointed to Li Yuandao, who was following him, and said.

"General Li!" Everyone cheered.

General Li has a very high prestige in the army, and has been stationed at the border for Daliang for many years, so that the Mobei tribes cannot go south half a step, and he is a hero in the eyes of every Daliang person.

Although the hero is in the twilight of his life, but in this case, to be able to fight side by side with such a legendary figure, this is the glory of every janissary guard and the guard of the imperial tomb, and a sense of pride and awe rose in the hearts of all of them, they looked at the king of Pingjiang who was dyed with frost on his sideburns, and General Li, who walked with a slight limp but still walked Chen Wei with the wind of a tiger and a tiger, and all of them rekindled their fighting spirit in their hearts.

"Listen to me!" General Li took it upon himself and shouted, "Archer, concentrate your firepower, shoot at one place, and whoever dares to approach will shoot him directly through a sieve!" His words made everyone smile, and they all lifted their spirits, and the archer hid in the shadows, holding bows and arrows, and shot the arrows in his hands in the direction of the command, and sure enough, the arrows had an amazing effect after a concentration, and whichever line of defense was pointed, that side would fall.

"I'll leave it to you." The general handed over the archers to the king of Pingjiang, and then he grabbed a eunuch who was shivering and shivering, "Go and call your people over, palace maids, eunuchs can be, go and find things in those broken places!" ”

The eunuch's face was already bloodless with fright, and he didn't dare to say anything after being pulled over by General Li, and he didn't know if he understood or not.

General Li gave him a slap in the face, "You remember, you are the person next to the emperor, and the people outside are Rouran, not our Daliang's army, as long as he attacks in, you will have no way to live!" You can choose to continue to shiver here, or you can choose to gamble for your own survival! ”

The eunuch came back to his senses now, he nodded busily, ran away with a roll, and went around to gather the palace maids and eunuchs who were scattered everywhere and were frightened and overwhelmed. With the help of these palace maids and eunuchs to plug the leak, the pressure on the imperial tomb guards and the Praetorian Guards was immediately relieved, and a large part of them were released to deal with foreign invaders.

The inner city gradually became regular under the command of King Pingjiang and General Li Da, and was able to organize an effective defense. Let those who attack for a while and a half can't find a good way to break through.

General Li Da's combat experience was too rich, and as soon as he appeared, it was like a shot in the arm to these people.

The progress on Ye Chengcheng's side is also smooth, she has already realized that Li Zhen led people back to the west gate to hide, so when King Kang withdrew the people from a department, she immediately killed with Xue Ning and directly copied the back road of others.

There was no pressure here, so the Rouran people also seemed a little scattered, they were hired, the attack was not particularly active, and King Kang put the main forces near the east gate and the north gate, they were just auxiliary attacks, no one wanted to go up to send them to death, they wanted to drag the Liang people here, they couldn't stand it, they would naturally surrender, how many people can there be in this gate, but only about 200 people, so the mentality of being easy and tired makes their attack a little absent-minded, From time to time, I went over and shouted twice, anyway, it's good that people don't let them go. Li Zhen suddenly led people out to kill, and immediately caught them off guard.

"Brothers in the door. We are the people of the northbound camp. Li Zhen and Xue Ning rode their horses under the city wall and shouted to the people who were still guarding the palace gate, "I am Li Zhen!" She showed her waist card and held it high. We are here to protect Your Majesty, open the door and let us in! ”

This...... The people inside can't make up their minds now, can they open the door? What if these people are fake?

"Wait, let's go ask for instructions." Immediately someone ran inside.

Li Zhen and Xue Ning waited patiently while cleaning up the Rouran cavalry outside the door.

As soon as General Li heard that his daughter had brought people outside the West Gate, someone described it and immediately ordered Li Zhen to come in.

As soon as the west gate opened, Li Zhen rushed in first, and went straight to the treasure hall, Ye Chengcheng arranged Li Zhen here in order to snatch out the noble family members in the treasure hall, even if they couldn't grab it, they could form an effective protection around them.

Who knew that Li Zhen was still a step late, and when she arrived in front of the treasure hall, it was already empty.

"What should I do" Xue Ning reined in his horse and asked.

"Go to Your Majesty!" Li Zhen said decisively. There are not many people she brought in, and she can't confront the large army of the Rouran people, she will suffer a big loss, since this side is in vain, at least she must find Your Majesty first.

Therefore, Li Zhen and Xue Ning immediately rode their horses and ran backwards.

The Rouran people besieging the inner gate were constantly rushing inside, and the two thousand cavalry led by Li Zhen and Xue Ning rushed diagonally like a dagger.

King Pingjiang commanded the archers, and was the first to see Li Ji, and the excited Chao Li general shouted, "Yuandao, your good daughter is here!" ”

General Li looked back when he heard the sound, and saw that under the sunset, his daughter was dressed in black armor, and a black long knife in her hand.

"Brothers! Help is coming! He shouted to the exhausted guards and janissaries around him.

Everyone also saw a young female general with the cavalry quickly diagonally inserted, and everyone was even more energetic.

"Father!" Li Zhen saw General Li Da who was leading people to fight on the wall of the inner city, "My daughter is late!" ”

"Dead girl! Now I'm going to tell you that! Give me a good kill! Let me show you what you can do! General Li scolded with a smile.

Li Zhen also laughed, swung his sword into the crowd, and the cavalry immediately scattered the Rouran people who were besieging the door, messing up their formation.

Ye Chengcheng at the east gate also pierced the enemy's heart like a steel knife.

Her command is clear, her attacks are fierce, and her marksmanship is also superb, and those brocade guards who look down on her a lot on weekdays have now accepted that kind of thought, and they follow Ye Qingcheng like a chicken blood.

There is such a force in her body, and when she becomes serious, people will involuntarily follow her.

The silver spear in her hand flew up and down, snatching like a chain, and the momentum was like a rainbow, Qin Shao sat on the hillside from afar and watched Ye Qingcheng lead people to rush into the imperial tomb, and his heart was excited and worried. If he could, he really wanted to fight side by side with Ye Tingcheng with the horse pistol, but now his body was ......

Qin Shao's eyes crossed a trace of gloom.

There was a faint pain in his heart, and a stream of bloody gas surged up, and he hurriedly held the silk handkerchief and pressed the corner of his lips.

"My lord, you can't go on like this." Lu Xun looked at Qin Shao worriedly, and there were blood marks on the silk handkerchief that left the corner of his lips.

"That's what love is. It goes on and on until it entangles people to death. Qin Shao's eyes stared at the beautiful figure in the distance, and said indifferently. Don't tell her. ”

"But my lord, this can't be hidden." Lu Xun said urgently.

"I know." Qin Shao's eyes softened, "How long can you hide it?" I don't want her to worry about me. ”

Along the way, how Ye Tingcheng treated him, he remembered everything in his heart.

He will never forget the hard way she dragged him forward in the wind and snow, and he could not forget the anxious and worried look that appeared in her eyes for herself.

When she finds something delicious, she always gives it to him first......

can be treated like this by Ye Tingcheng, he has already earned a lot of work in this life......

"My lord, Miss Li has already rushed in with someone." There are spies to report back.

"That's good." Ye Tingcheng smiled slightly, stabbed a Rouran person with a shot, she looked back at the person beside her and said, "Let's go, let's quickly take the imperial tomb." ”

Ye Miaocheng followed Ye Tingcheng's side, looking at her righteous appearance, and couldn't help but smile.

is so beautiful, even Ye Miaocheng, who grew up with her and was used to seeing her face, was moved by the confident beauty exuded by the current Ye Tingcheng.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the gray sky in orange, and it was also a little bright color reflected on Ye Chengcheng's face, just this little bright color, making her eyebrows appear more dazzling and prominent in the sea of people, her already born face was magnificent, this time the pride between the smile and the natural confidence in the words made her whole person like a real luminous body.

"Boss! We follow you! Lu Peng roared, and rode his horse with Fang Dabing to follow Ye Chengcheng's left and right.
