Chapter 103: Qingjun's side
In a short period of time, the banquet went from a pomp and circumstance to a ruin.
The place that should have been covered with flowers was stained red with blood, and the corpses of the dead were scattered in an irregular manner. Broken spears, broken shields, the thick smell of blood, and the burning eyes of careerists...... Flooded here.
The scale of the battle was already small, and only a few people around Zhao Jianyan remained.
Those people surrounded Zhao Jianyan in the center, desperately protecting the safety of His Highness. Unfortunately, they can't change anything at this point.
Mu Fan glanced at it, Wu Zhangdeng was torn apart by the sword, and his death was extremely miserable. He was incomplete when he was alive and even more pitiful when he died.
Zhao Jianyan watched the people around him fall one by one, he looked up to the sky and howled, endlessly desolate.
In the end, he put down the sword in his hand, in fact, his sword had no effect, because he was closely protected by others, and Zhao Xuan's people did not dare to hurt him.
"Lay down your arms." Zhao Jianyan said with the last of his strength.
He sat on the ground, feeling powerless.
The men who guarded him threw away their weapons and stopped resisting, leaving them to be seized by the defenders of the palace.
They have done their best, and the matter has reached the imperial court, and the emperor will not take a knife on their family.
Zhao Xuan on the high platform stretched out his left hand, pinched it into a claw shape, and faced Zhao Jianyan. His hand hooked back, and Zhao Jianyan's body flew uncontrollably towards the high platform.
Zhao Jianyan was frightened, but he didn't scream. Even if he died, at the last moment, he had to protect himself and the majesty of Zhao Chen's royal lineage.
Zhao Xuan hooked his right hand, and a ring-headed big knife appeared in his hand.
Mu Fan recognized the style of the ring-headed broadsword, which was exactly the same as the knife in the executioner's hand.
He frowned, and said in his heart: "Zhao Xuan is really crazy? What do you do with a ring-headed broadsword? Could it be that Zhao Jianyan was stabbed? ”
Zhao Xuan kicked Zhao Jianyan down, raised the ring head sword, and in an instant, everyone's eyes at the banquet gathered.
Once the knife fell, Zhao Jianyan died, and a war between the two sides was inevitable.
Zhao Xuan slashed down with his knife and cut off Zhao Jianyan's crown, causing Zhao Jianyan's body to tremble, foaming at the mouth, and fainting to the ground.
For the first time, Mu Fan felt the ruthlessness of the imperial family up close, and his uncle didn't want to kill his nephew, so he left his nephew alive in order to make better use of him.
A highness can be counted as a bargaining chip, and it is worthless when he dies.
Zhao Xuan raised the big sword and shouted: "There are too many traitors and villains around the emperor, so much so that he gives orders and disrupts the court. Zhao Xuan, as the king of Fengyang and the son of the first emperor, couldn't bear to see the ancestral foundation ruined, so he decided to send troops to Dingzhou...... Qingjun side! ”
His voice was so loud that it drowned out all other sounds in the night sky.
The three words "Qingjun side" kept echoing, and every time they echoed, they warned the people present that the sky was about to change.
Mu Fan's body was a little stiff, and his little thumb trembled slightly. I knew that things would go in this direction, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I was still shocked.
At the same time, the news that Zhao Xuan, the king of Fengyang, wanted to clear the monarch's side began to spread. It won't be long before it spreads all over the world.
From beginning to end, Zhao Xuan did not come up with evidence that Zhao Jianyan and his party killed Zhao Zhijun.
If the two sides are in a stalemate, they do need evidence to get more leverage.
But it's different if it's really a rebellion, where does Zhao Xuan need evidence, he just finds a reason to detain Zhao Jianyan and turn His Royal Highness into a hostage.
Tonight, Huo Wujia evacuated the remaining part of the northwest garrison overnight to fulfill his promise.
Zhao Xuan is enlisting the support of several major forces in the northwest, and if he wants to stabilize the rear, it is impossible without their support.
Mu Fan glanced at the corpses all over the ground, and he remembered what Master had said before coming to the Northwest.
In this group of birthday celebrations, there are some people from the Mu family and the Sword Sect.
Zhao Jianyan and Wu Zhangdeng still didn't know the truth of the matter, one became a prisoner, and the other was torn apart by a sword. The Mu family and the people of the Sword Sect who were mixed in the team did not end much better.
Mu Fan retracted his gaze, he didn't know who was from his family and who was from the Sword Sect among the corpses all over the ground.
"Kill them all!"
This sentence was the last word he heard that night, and Zhao Xuan ordered to kill all the people who surrendered.
……
……
In the imperial city of Dingzhou in Dongze, the newly built Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is magnificent.
Huo Wujia's title has grown a little longer, and he has recently made meritorious contributions in suppressing the rebellion, and according to this momentum, it will not take a few days to put down the rebellion in the north.
Although the rebellion and the suppression of the rebellion were self-directed and self-acted, they really worked hard.
In order to perform realistically and perform this play well, Ye Feng used his own team.
Huo Wujia made the best use of his belongings, he used his descendant army to suppress the rebellion and accumulate meritorious services for himself, so he became a Dingyuan candidate.
Ever since he was determined to change, Ye Feng had sent someone to contact him.
On the one hand, Ye Feng really cared about him. On the other hand, Ye Feng felt that he was not a stupid person. Dongze's current situation is not suitable for large-scale change, and if it is not well controlled, not only can it not kick the Xuanmen away, but it may also make the entire Dongze fall under the control of the Xuanmen.
After a few contacts, Humin found that things were not so simple.
Huo Wujia thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to try to join forces with his master.
Ye Feng acted as a matchmaker, building a bridge between the imperial court and the King of Fengyang, so that the two sides could communicate.
Huo Wujia told Ye Feng about the secret hand that the first emperor had left by King Fengyang's side, and this was the matter of Ye Feng forcibly changing the sword domain and saving Zhang Lei.
Ye Feng has been active in the northwest, and in Huo Wujia's eyes, he is acting as a matchmaker, but in fact, he has done much more than that.
If he was content to be a middleman, he would not be the Dragon City Flying General back then, and he would not be the Seven Elders of the Sword Sect.
Ye Feng took the opportunity to act and complete the deployment of him and Ye Jin.
Before leaving for the northwest, he instructed Shisha to find a way to save Ji San. Ji San is so important, holding Ji San in his hand is equivalent to mastering a big killing weapon.
More importantly, Ji San is a person with a heart, a person who is willing to give up his life.
Ye Feng saved Ji San, so that he was in a position where he could attack and retreat.
attacked, threatened Xuanmen through Ji San, and made the two camps inside Xuanmen unpeaceful.
Shou, once he encounters something tricky, or he wants to accomplish other important things. Ji San was able to force Xuanmen to divert his energy and cover Ye Feng to accomplish his true goal.
Then he took control of the weaknesses of the imperial court, so that Wu Zhangdeng had nowhere to exert his strength. Although the matter in the northwest has come to an end, the assassins sent by Wu Zhanglan are still in his hands.
It's a card that you keep and play when you need to. As long as you grasp it well, you can catch the enemy by surprise.
The only one who really knows Ye Feng's overall plan is Yejin,
It's not that Ye Feng doesn't want to tell Mu Fan about the plan, but the plan is too important, it is related to life and death, and the general trend, so he can't be careless......
In the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, Huo Wujia dragged his chin, his eyelids drooped, and he almost fell asleep.
It was more difficult than he thought to kick the forces of the Xuanmen out of the court, and the intertwined courtiers formed a group, and it was difficult to break it.
Some time ago, he wantonly arrested some courtiers, and now the rebound is amazing.
Take this self-directed and self-staged rebellion as an example, there are really courtiers who communicate with foreign enemies, waiting for an opportunity to prevent Huo Wujia from suppressing the rebellion, thus hitting his prestige.
The situation has progressed to this point, the courtiers can retreat, but Huo Wujia cannot retreat.
He retreated, which represented a compromise, and it would be difficult to eliminate the erosion of the Xuanmen in the future.
Only the torrent is brave!
