After Liu Yi left the Xuanzheng Palace, he immediately returned to the camp of the Yulin Army, gathered the generals under him, and secretly ordered things. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After receiving Liu Yi's order, the subordinate generals agreed in unison and went to their respective posts.

One of Liu Yi's orders to the generals was that from this time on, all the generals of the Right Yulin Army must be on duty in their own positions and must not leave under any circumstances until a new order comes, and Liu Yi himself will stay in the camp of the Right Yulin Army all night.

Another important order Liu Yi gave to the generals was to act according to his orders at all times, and not to accept orders from other generals or other places to overstep their ranks. If there is any order that is passed to the Yulin Army, it is first passed to the general of the Yulin Army, and the general will then issue an order to the subordinate Zhonglang General and Lang General, so Liu Yi's order is not out of line, and the generals have no objections.

Of course, Liu Yi also had a series of other specific orders issued, and he especially instructed Jinghui, Huan Yanfan and several other Zhonglang generals to be vigilant at all times, strictly guard against any abnormal situations in the palace, and report to him immediately if there is any abnormal situation.

These days, another general of the Right Yulin Army, Qi Biming, is still on leave due to illness, and it is said that his condition is still relatively serious and cannot be recovered in a short time, so that the affairs of the Right Yulin Army are all handled by Liu Yi.

Liu Yi's immediate boss, Li Duozuo, the general of the Right Yulin Army, came to the army every day, but he only listened to some of Liu Yi's reports, and after listening to the reports, he told Liu Yi to take responsibility for everything.

A while after Liu Yi finished ordering the generals, Li Duozuo also came to the camp of the Right Yulin Army.

Li Duozuo also participated in the court meeting today, and also felt the situation of the mountain rain coming in the court, and after entering the Yulin Army camp and greeting Liu Yi, he calmly faced and ordered the subordinate officials in the other camps to go out.

The two sat opposite each other, and Li Duozuo looked at Liu Yi, whose face was not unusual, "General Liu, you are an important minister in the court who is very valued by the emperor, the queen mother, and His Majesty, and the concubine of Princess Taiping. How? ”

Liu Yi smiled slightly, "General, the Tang Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty under the rule of His Majesty the Emperor, we are all ministers loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, presumably the General already knows what to do, so why do you need to ask the last general!"

Liu Yi also knew some of Liu Yi's arrangements in the Yulin Army, and Liu Yi knew from Li Duozuo's arrangement that he had never asked about his arrangement, and he had not accused him of doing anything, and he knew that this general who had been attached to Hu for many years in the leader of the Beiya Forbidden Army actually had his own answer, but he was still a little unsure in his heart, and wanted to seek something to support his beliefs from others.

Li Duozuo's eyes flashed, and he still stared at Liu Yi, "General Liu's words mean that he has already told General Ben your attitude..."

"Report!" Before Li Duozuo finished speaking, there was a shouting outside.

"Come in," Liu Yi asked Li Duozuo with his eyes, and then shouted outside.

A lieutenant who was on duty outside the camp ran in, "Report to General Li, General Liu, Your Majesty has sent someone to summon you to discuss matters!"

Li Duozuo, who stood up immediately after hearing this, glanced at Liu Yi, who also got up from his seat, and showed a look of surprise on his face again, but Liu Yi had a calm look, looking at Li Duozuo calmly.

"General, Your Majesty has a rumor, let's hurry up!" Liu Yi gave Li Duozuo a salute.

Li Duozuo didn't say anything, strode out of the tent, and walked in the direction of the Xuanwu Hall with the eunuchs who came to summon him, and Liu Yi followed behind.

The eunuch guarding outside the Xuanwu Hall came out immediately after entering the report and let the two generals enter the hall.

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi walked into the Xuanwu Hall one after the other.

In the hall, Li Xian and Zhang Da'an stood together, but did not speak, Li Da'an stood on the side with his head down, and Li Xian paced in circles in the hall, looking very anxious.

Seeing Li Duozuo and Liu Yi coming in, Li Xian also stopped, his expression slowed down slightly, and he showed some smiles.

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi stepped forward to salute, and Li Xian ordered the two generals to be exempted.

"General Li, General Liu, I am here to announce that the two generals are really important to discuss!" Li Xian pretended to have a relaxed look, looked at the two generals and said, "The two generals sat down and said..."

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi glanced at each other, and knelt down and sat down according to Li Xian's instructions, and Li Xian sat next to the first case.

Zhang Da'an, who stayed on one side, also sat down on the other side.

Liu Yi naturally looked sideways at the side of the hall, he vaguely felt that there were other people in this hall, and there were quite a few of them, but he didn't feel the murderous aura, so he put his mind at ease.

Zhang Da'an spoke first and said to Li Duozuo and Liu Yi: "The two generals are the generals of the forbidden army who are responsible for the task of guarding the Xuanmen Wu area, and Your Majesty's safety is tied to the two generals, and now Your Majesty's safety is threatened... Presumably the two generals won't sit idly by and watch this happen, right? ”

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi glanced at each other, and hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty's safety is a hundred times more important than the life of the last general and other surnames, as long as the last general and General Liu are on duty in the Yulin Army for one day, you will ensure that Your Majesty is not threatened by anyone!"

"Okay, the general's words moved me very much, I didn't see the wrong person!" Li Xian high-fived.

Hearing Li Xian say this, Li Duozuo and Liu Yi hurriedly saluted and replied: "Your Majesty, as the general of the forbidden army, it is the duty of the ministers to protect the peace of the palace and the safety of Your Majesty, and they dare not say so as Your Majesty!"

Li Xian waved his hand, signaling Li Duozuo and Liu Yi not to be polite, and then looked at Li Duozuo, "The general is so rich today, for whom?" ”

Li Duozuo hurriedly got up and replied very respectfully: "The minister was originally just the leader of the Yan Dynasty, and since he was attached to the Tang Dynasty, he has been trusted and reused by the unusual, and all the glory of the minister is given by the first emperor!"

Li Xian also stood up, paced two steps, with an indignant look on his face, and his voice increased, "As the son of the first emperor, and now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I am forced by the heirs of the Wu family, no matter what the dynasty, I must follow their opinions, I have no right to decide, and now they have gone one step further and want to force me to abdicate... The general inherited the grace of the emperor, can he sit back and watch this situation occur? ”

Li Duozuo was shocked and knelt in front of Li Xian: "The minister doesn't know what His Majesty means!"

Li Xian's face showed some despair, as well as sadness and helplessness, and he sighed and said: "Wu Sansi, Wu Chenghei, several descendants of the martial family, and some other ministers of the court, instigated to coerce the queen mother, wanting to abolish the throne of me, and now gather people in the Yingxian Palace to conspire, as far as I know, they have forced the queen mother to make an order, abolish the throne of me, the queen mother was forced to helpless, and also agreed to their coercion, presumably soon, they will lead the soldiers to the Xuanwu Palace to announce the will of the queen mother..."

Li Duozuo was shocked, looked at Li Xian in horror, and then looked at Liu Yi who was standing on the side, he already understood what was going on, and kowtowed at the moment and said: "The minister is determined to serve me in the Tang Dynasty for the rest of his life, and he must be the only one who obeys the orders of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the rest do not want to hear it, nor dare to take care of the minister himself and his wife... As long as Your Majesty has an order, no matter what you want the minister to do, the minister will not dare to disobey!"

Hearing Li Duozuo say this, Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief: "This is very good, if such a situation really occurs, I can only send General Li and the Yulin Army led by General Liu to escort it..."

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi got up at the same time, clasped their fists and saluted, and ordered loudly: "The ministers must be strictly armed, and the general of the Right Yulin Army must be on guard to strictly prevent any situation from threatening Your Majesty's safety!"

"The safety of me and Datang depends on the two generals!" Li Xian said, and bowed very respectfully to Li Duozuo and Liu Yi.

"Don't dare to be Your Majesty's gift!" Li Duozuo and Liu Yi knelt down in front of Li Xian together.

Li Xian stepped forward and held up the arms of the two generals, "The two generals are the ministers of my Tang Dynasty, and I will definitely not forget the great contributions made by the two generals for my Tang Dynasty!" After I deal with these matters and stabilize the dynasty, the two generals, generals and other meritorious officials, he will definitely be of great use..."

Li Duozuo and Liu Yi glanced at each other, but Li Duozuo said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust in the ministers, the ministers will retire and make preparations to strengthen their vigilance and defense!"

"Okay, you guys go!" Li Xian hung a heart and finally let go of most of it. He had discussed things with Liu Yi several times before, and he personally went to Princess Taiping's mansion to discuss with Liu Yi, many details have been discussed, and he is not too suspicious of Liu Yi's loyalty, but this Liu Yi's boss Li Duozuo is not too sure, although Liu Yi said that he is specifically in charge of the forbidden army, but if Li Duozuo does not cooperate, he can stop any action of the Yulin Army after knowing the situation, as a subordinate general, Liu Yi had to obey the order, and now he called Li Duozuo and Liu Yi together, and said these words, With Li Duozuo's promise, there is not much to worry about.

After Li Duozuo and Liu Yi left the palace, he immediately ordered some other important ministers who stayed on the side of the palace to enter and discuss things secretly.

After Liu Yi and Li Duozuo returned to the Yulin Army camp, they immediately gathered the generals again and began to arrange, and Liu Yi also sent some cronies to the South Garden of Daming Palace to convey his instructions to Li Jingjia and Hua Dazhi, who were in charge of the specific military affairs of Jin Wuwei.

These two generals of Jin Wuwei have also been secretly summoned by Li Xian accompanied by Liu Yi-

On the side of the Taiye Pond in Daming Palace, Pei Yan, Wu Sansi, Cheng Wuting and others led more than 300 fully armed Zuo Yulin Army sergeants from the west side of the Taihe Palace, crossed the bridge on the Longshou Canal, and quickly came in the direction of the Xuanwu Palace.

Seeing that a sergeant was coming, Li Xian's guards guarding outside the Xuanwu Palace, as well as some of Zuo Qianniuwei's sergeants, drew their weapons and greeted them as if they were facing a great enemy, but the number of these guards and Qianniuwei's sergeants was less than one-third of that of Zuo Yulin's sergeant.

Pei Yan and Wu Sansi stepped forward, Pei Yan pointed to the holy decree held by Wu Sansi behind him and said to Li Xian's head of the guard: "By the order of the Empress Dowager, there is a decree delivered to Your Majesty, and please let the general let us go in to announce the decree!"

The leader of the guards didn't appreciate it, and his eyes didn't even glance at the holy decree in Wu Sansi's hand, and he sternly rejected Pei Yan: "Your Majesty is discussing important matters with some ministers, and it is strictly ordered that no one should go in and disturb them, and those who violate them will be killed!"

"You dare to disobey the will of the Queen Mother, do you want to rebel?" Wu Sansi took a big step forward, but he still stood behind Pei Yan's side, pointed at the leader of the guards and said.

The leader of the guards drew the knife in his hand and shouted murderously: "We are the attendants of Your Majesty's side, but Your Majesty's orders are obeyed, and without Your Majesty's will, no one is allowed to enter to disturb the deliberations of Your Majesty and the ministers, otherwise there will be no mercy!"

The other guards and Qianniuwei sergeants also drew their swords, and Wu Sansi, who was taken aback, ordered Cheng Wuting in a trembling voice: "General Cheng, quickly order your sergeants to take down these rebellious ministers and thieves..."

Under the order of Cheng Wuting, who was pale, the sergeants of the Zuo Yulin Army also dispersed, forming a siege against those guards and the sergeants of Qianniuwei, but did not draw their weapons.

Just as the two sides were facing each other, a majestic shouting voice came from inside the Xuanwu Palace, "Who is making noise outside the hall?" With the voice, Emperor Li Xian, accompanied by Zhang Da'an, Pei Xingjian and others, and a large number of guards, walked out of the palace.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother ordered the ministers and others to pass on the decree to Your Majesty, and please ask Your Majesty to accept the decree!" Seeing such a situation in front of him, Pei Yan, whose face had become very pale, said with a stiff neck.

"Then please ask Pei Zhongshu to read the will of the queen mother!" Li Xian stood in front of the guards with weapons and said with a blank face.

Pei Yan ordered Wu Sansi behind him to announce the decree, Wu Sansi took a step forward, trembling and unfolding the holy decree and reading it. There was no surprise to anyone, in the holy decree given by Wu Zetian, after reprimanding Li Xian for violating the will of the emperor, doing many rebellious things, and causing a lot of crimes against the dynasty, he then announced that he would abolish Li Xian's imperial throne, demote him to King Pei, and support King Li Xian as the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

After Wu San finished thinking about it, his confidence increased again, and he held the holy decree in one hand and sneered, "His Royal Highness King Pei, don't take the decree quickly!"

"I follow the edict of the first emperor, as well as the emperor's deathbed edict, inherit the throne with the crown prince, and all the policies taken after the succession are in line with the government, the queen mother accuses me of trumped-up charges, what I have done is worthy of the ministers in the court, worthy of the world, my throne, no one can take it away, the queen mother is the same, you think that with the power of a few of you to coerce the queen mother to make such a will, you can take away my throne, dream!" Li Xian looked at the large group of people outside the hall majestically and shouted, "I will not accept this order!"

Seeing Li Xian like this, Wu Sansi and Pei Yan looked at each other, but Wu Sansi spoke: "The Queen Mother is in accordance with the will of the first emperor, she can decide all major military affairs, and you will be abolished as the emperor who openly challenges the authority of the Queen Mother, and a new monarch will be established, so it is not a problem," Wu Sansi said, turning his head to the Zuo Yulin Army sergeants who were holding weapons led by Cheng Wuting behind him, and shouted: "Come on, quickly take down these people... Take His Royal Highness King Pei down to see the Queen Mother..."

Seeing Wu Sansi so rampant, Li Xian, whose face turned red, was even more furious, waved his hand and shouted: "I am the emperor, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, you dare to lead troops to the place where the emperor of the Tang Dynasty lives, openly rebel, come to someone, and quickly take down all the rebellious ministers and rebels!"
