Chapter 169: The City Breaks
"Knock ......"
A loud bang entered the palace, and everyone's attention was invariably attracted to it, only to hear a shout of killing coming from a distance.
"The Huns are attacking the city." Fang Lingtian sighed.
What should come is still coming.
"It's not right......" Xu Haifeng's ears are far better than others, and he was the first to notice that something was wrong.
After a while, generals such as Fang Lingtian and his son, Li Bohu and others also noticed that the sound of shouting and killing was different.
"Why is this voice getting closer?" Xiang Ming asked with a solemn expression.
"Your Majesty...... The emperor ......" An old eunuch hurriedly rushed into the imperial study, and shouted in shock: "Oh no, the north gate is lost." ”
Everyone's faces changed color in unison, and Emperor Han Xian stood up from the dragon chair and asked in a trembling voice, "What did you say?" ”
"Your Majesty, the North Gate is lost."
"Fang Qing's family." Emperor Han Xian turned his head to stare at Fang Lingtian and asked, "Didn't you promise me that the Jingshi would not be lost?" ”
Fang Lingtian clenched his fists and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard someone outside the door shouting: "Your Majesty, ......"
Emperor Han Xian turned his head to look, and it was Liu Zhengzhong, the commander of the Yellow Dragon Legion.
"Commander Liu, why is the north gate lost?" Tang Zonghan asked loudly.
Liu Zhengzhong nodded to him and said, "At the third watch, more than 100 black-clothed masked people suddenly came to the north gate, and they were all strong in martial arts, and the guards were caught off guard, and they were all killed and wounded. They opened the north gate and let the Huns into the city. ”
"The Cheng family, it's the Cheng family again." Xiang Ming was furious, and struck a sandalwood chair beside him into pieces.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen should lead his subordinates to resist desperately, you should leave quickly." Liu Zhengzhong said and turned around to leave.
However, a thick arm blocked his way, and when he looked up, it was Li Bohu, who was still kneeling on the ground.
"Commander Li, you ......"
Of course, he is no stranger to this Tongze, but he can't guess his intentions at this time.
Li Bohu glanced at him deeply and said, "General Liu, you have followed the emperor for many years, and the heavy responsibility of escorting the emperor is indispensable to you." ”
Liu Zhengzhong was stunned, and saw him bypassing him, kneeling heavily in front of Emperor Han Xian, and respectfully bowing three times and nine bows, and said: "The criminal minister was dead, and he should have died in the northwest, but he still had worries in his heart, and he was still breathing." Now that I can see the emperor, my wish has been fulfilled, and I have no regrets. ”
got up and bowed to Liu Zhengzhong, and said, "The emperor will entrust it to the general." ”
Then, he turned and strode out.
"Bohu ......" Fang Lingtian shouted with tears in his eyes.
Liu Zhengzhong stood on the spot, unable to make up his mind for a while, whether to follow Li Bohu or escort the holy car as he said.
"Your Majesty, the Huns are coming, you should leave quickly." It was the old eunuch who called out in a hurry.
"Let's go?" Emperor Han Xian's eyes shot a look of confusion, and he muttered, "Where else can I go?" ”
"This ......" Although the old eunuch was loyal to Emperor Han Xian, it seemed that such a national event was indeed beyond his knowledge, and he was immediately speechless.
"The west, the north, the emperor can go." Fang Ling took a step forward in the sky, and also knelt on the ground respectfully, and bowed three times and nine bows to Emperor Han Xian: "No matter where the emperor is going, these two children will definitely send you safely." ”
Emperor Han Xian raised his head, the blank look in his eyes fading, replaced by a firm decision.
"Ah Fu, take the jade seal of the country."
The old eunuch Ah Fu answered, turned around and came to the side of the dragon case, and he didn't know what he had opened, and after a while, he took out a finely carved jade box.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty took this heirloom jade seal, which represented the supreme imperial power, and handed it to Liu Zhengqi with his own hands.
Liu Zhengqi held his hands in his hands, but there was a hint of bad omen in his heart, and asked, "Father, ...... are you?"
Emperor Han Xian's sleeve robe waved, showing the true colors of the emperor: "I ascended the throne in the year of my establishment, and for more than 20 years, I trembled and trembled, and none of them slacked off. The most proud thing in his life was Lin'an's defeat of Caesar, but the most frustrating thing in his life was that he was not subordinate, which caused the Cheng family to rebel. ”
He let out a long sigh and exclaimed sadly: "The foundation of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years has been destroyed in one fell swoop, what face do I still have to live secretly, even if it is under the Nine Springs, I have no shame to meet the ancestors and ancestors?" ”
"Your Majesty, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. There are still 200,000 imperial troops in the north, and as long as you raise your arms, you will definitely be able to make a comeback and regain the lost territory. Fang Lingtian said in a loud voice: "Now without further ado, please ask the emperor to move the dragon quickly." ”
Emperor Han Xian stretched out his hand and gently stroked the table, as if evoking the memories in his heart, he raised his head and stared at Fang Lingtian, and said, "Fang Qing, you and I have been friends for decades, do you still want to persuade me?" ”
Fang Lingtian looked at him in a daze, his lips moved, and he couldn't speak.
"Father's ......"
Liu Zhengqi landed on his knees and was about to persuade hard. But seeing that Emperor Han Xian suddenly shouted, he interrupted and said sharply: "Fifth son, today it is said that the country is in trouble, and as the honor of the Ninety-Five, I deserve to be martyred." And my Liu family's generation is the only one who has learned people, and his temperament and mind are all excellent choices, and he said that he will recover the rivers and mountains, and he will count on you. ”
Liu Zhengqi mourned and cried to the ground.
Emperor Han Xian hated it and reprimanded angrily: "At such a time, you still behave like this, fifth son, where is your heroic decision?" Don't let me ...... Disappointing my father. ”
Liu Zhengqi suddenly raised his head, tears appeared in his eyes, but he couldn't help himself, respectfully bowed three times and bowed nine times to Emperor Han Xian, and said: "The son will live up to his father's expectations." ”
Emperor Han Xian showed a pleased smile, pulled him up, turned his head to Liu Zhengzhong and said, "Zhengzhong, you will escort the prince away." ”
The muscles on Liu Zhengzhong's face twitched, and Emperor Han Xian glanced at him angrily, and said, "Why, is my most loyal leader going to disobey my orders?" ”
Liu Zhengzhong barely showed a smile that was even uglier than crying, and choked up: "The minister obeys the order." ”
Emperor Han Xian nodded with satisfaction, and sighed, and the other party Ling Tiandao: "Fang Qingjia, you are the most prestigious and capable general in the Han Dynasty, please cherish yourself, and assist the young master in the future, and you will have to work hard." ”
"Yes......" Fang Lingtian replied respectfully.
Emperor Han Xian waved his robe and said: "Fifth son, remember, there will be a day when this city will be recaptured, so I will be blind in the underworld." ”
"Yes, son." Liu Zhengqi couldn't control it anymore, lowered his head, and two tears slipped silently.
"Let's go." Emperor Han Xian turned around and faced the dragon chair, only the lonely and lonely back was still as straight as a pine.
Fang Lingtian, Tang Zonghan, and Su Dongshun glanced at each other, their hearts were in touch with each other, and they knelt down at the same time, and even Xu Haifeng followed Xiang Ming to make the last three bows and nine bows to the Han Supreme who was determined to die for the country.
Walking outside the hall, Fang Lingtian said: "Your Highness, please wait here, the old minister will call his brother to accompany His Highness to the northern camp." ”
Xiang Ming's heart trembled, and he hurriedly shouted, "Daddy, you ......"
Fang Lingtian stretched out his hand to interrupt his words, smiled proudly, and said, "This city is guarded by me, if you can't fulfill your duties, you should be loyal." ”
Xu Haifeng was taken aback and persuaded: "Father-in-law, this is a troublemaker, and it is not you." Why should you ......?"
Fang Lingtian snorted angrily and said: "The old man has joined the army with a weak crown, crisscrossing the battlefield, and for decades, his merits are clear, and he has a reputation today. Feng'er, you have many capable people in the Black Flag Army, and your combat power is unparalleled in the world, and it will depend on you to escort the prince out of Beijing later. ”
"The old man will take the first step, and after the arrangements are made, I will accompany you, the soldier." Su Dongshun smiled and said, "Old drunkard, what about you?" ”
Tang Zonghan glanced at him disdainfully, and said, "The man of the Tang family, how can there be a bad seed, just see who you and I arrive first." ”
The two laughed a few times, saluted Liu Zhengqi, turned around and strode away.
Xu Haifeng's face changed slightly, he couldn't have imagined that these surnames were so strong, and they would rather die than leave Jingshi.
Fang Lingtian looked at the disappeared backs of the two old friends, and said with a smile: "Xiang Ming, you accompany Your Highness, Feng'er and I will go to your second uncle and return in a moment." ”
Xiang Ming's face was pale, his hands trembled slightly, and his heart was agitated.
After two bends, Fang Lingtian saw that there was no one around, suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at Xu Haifeng.
Xu Haifeng was puzzled, and asked respectfully, "Father-in-law, ...... you?" ”
Fang Lingtian looked at him, and suddenly couldn't touch the north and asked, "I heard that you renamed Lin'an City Wolong City?" ”
Xu Haifeng bowed his head and said, "Exactly." ”
Fang Lingtian smiled and said, "Okay, what a Wolong ambition." ”
He changed his words and said: "You and I are both father and son, and son-in-law, and now that parting is imminent, the old man begs you." ”
Xu Haifeng raised his head to meet his gaze, and suddenly nodded and said, "The child promised his father-in-law that the glory of the Fang family would never be cut off from this." ”
Fang Lingtian shook his head and sighed: "I know your surname, for the sake of Xiang Ming and Ying'er, you will definitely not treat the Fang family lightly." Therefore, this is not what I ask you for.
"Father-in-law, please speak." Xu Haifeng turned his face sideways, not looking at his gaze like substance, and said slowly.
"The prince is going to the northern camp, which is very dangerous, I beg you not to get in the way." Fang Lingtian said slowly.
Xu Haifeng turned his head to look at the old man's eyes full of determination, and finally let out a long sigh and said, "The child and the eldest brother will return to Wolong City immediately, and the matter here has nothing to do with me anymore." ”
"Good. As for whether His Highness can escape alive, it will be up to Providence to decide. Fang Lingtian's eyes gradually softened, and he turned to look at the dark night sky: "There is one last word to say for my father." ”
"Father-in-law, please speak."
Fang Lingtian's eyes were full of light, and he said word by word: "Remember, the land of the Han people is only ruled by the Han people. ”
A moment later, the crowd gathered again.
Fang Lingde's flushed face was full of unwillingness, but he was stoic and didn't show the slightest, just led the crowd to say goodbye to the three elders and hurried away.
The sound of shouting and killing in his ears was gradually approaching, and when Xu Haifeng was leaving, he looked back and saw that the three elders stood side by side, calm and relaxed, and graceful.
It's just that if you say goodbye today, it will become an eternal secret.
In this life and this life, there will be no more to see each other.
