Zhao Qinming put his head on the gold brick, and his voice trembled: "My subordinates don't know, Xu is ...... Xu is Xiao Mu has deployed early......"

"I don't know! Could it be that they fell from the sky? The eldest princess of Yongyang sneered: "Even if they let them approach the Jingshi quietly...... But the 60,000 cavalry guards under your command, and each of the guards under your command are all personally selected by the palace, and all of them are elite henchmen who have experienced a hundred battles! There was no movement last night, and you boasted to the palace about the sea mouth above the defense...... So how did they get into the city? It was only half a day, and it hit the palace gate! - Why should you know why? ”

"It should be...... It should be the leakage of the defense map that will give Lu Longjun a chance to take advantage of it......" Zhao Qinming didn't dare to move, and his body was like a taut string.

The eyes of the eldest princess of Yongyang were extremely cold in an instant.

"Okay, it's the leakage of the defense map...... her voice lowered suddenly, took a step forward, and came to Zhao Qinming with gold soft boots: "Then tell this palace, when did your cavalry become so vulnerable, and couldn't even resist it for half a day?" ”

“…… According to a personal guard under his command, he came to report that among the commanders of the six guards, including Cai Xin and Qiu Zhengyan, there were four people, but somehow, not long after the first battle, they all gave up defending and defected to Lu Longjun! ”

Zhao Qinming's fingers on the ground trembled slightly: "...... All four of them have the trust of His Royal Highness and guard important places...... The rebellion at this time is really catching everyone off guard! In this way, Xiao Mufang was able to lead the army directly into the Beijing Division! ”

In other words...... He commanded six guards, and four guards rebelled against Xiao Mu!

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been so flustered!

It's just that this event is not only sudden, but even unsettlingly weird...... He was wondering all the way, why did Cai Xin and the four suddenly turn against him?!

Those four people are stoic, they are not ordinary people, etc., and they have been loyal to the eldest princess for many years...... What benefits did Dingbei Hou promise them?

And he even saw Cai Xin following Xiao Mu's side just now, and he actually followed Xiao Mu all the way!

Zhao Qinming still felt incredible at the moment, and he was already drenched in a cold sweat: "My subordinates really don't know what kind of means Xiao Mu used...... I only heard the guard say that he didn't know what he said before the battle, and he showed something that looked like a talisman...... Cai Xin and the others all rebelled! ”

Such a reversal of the situation is too sudden!

"It's the soldier talisman of the Shi family...... "The eldest princess of Yongyang frowned tightly: "He actually knew his identity in front of Cai Xin and the others......"

When Shi Minhui was punished, it was she who interceded for Shi Jiajun again and again, so that she kept the old department of Shi Jiajun-

Over the years, she has secretly given grace and support, sending those people to where she needs them to go, using the Shi Jiajun as a bait to seek justice, so that those people are willing to be used by her......

But now their major general, Shi Jingzhi, is back!

"He's already laid everything out!" The feeling that everything was suddenly out of control shrouded the eldest princess of Yongyang, making her no longer calm and calm in the previous moment: "...... Outside of the Beijing Division, Zeng Xin was contained by the Turks. In this imperial city, he and Yan Luoli should cooperate with the general to plan to fake his death, and take a Lu Long military talisman to confuse the eyes and ears of the palace...... In fact, he has secretly already deployed troops to surround the Beijing Division! ”

Zhao Qinming only felt that he couldn't understand much.

What is the time of the military talisman?

What is self-evident?

Yan Meng is actually a person from Dingbei Hou?!

And at this moment, suddenly there were a few piercing and sharp sounds—

The eldest princess of Yongyang raised her head sharply and looked in the direction outside the hall.

"It's like...... It seems to come from the direction of the Heavenly Gate. Zhao Qinming raised his head stiffly, his face was already dead: "Your Highness...... The Gate of Chengtian has been broken. ”

A very light sneer overflowed from the corner of the eldest princess Yongyang's mouth: "This palace knows...... I see. ”

This sound was very special, and she had heard it when the prince returned to the palace this morning.

At that time, she only thought it was Ji Hengyu who wanted to attract attention everywhere and gather momentum for the prince to return to the palace-

Now it seems that at that time, Ji Hengyu had clearly used this sound to pass on the secret signal that the prince had returned to the palace with Xiao Mu outside the city!

Xiao Mu used this as a name to make the move to attack the Beijing Division!

It's not that Ji Hengyu didn't expect her to force the palace......

On the contrary, she never expected this situation!

The eldest princess of Yongyang could not suppress the anger and unwillingness in her heart, and suddenly lifted the sleeves of her robe, and the crown beads on her head shook and struck each other to make a small sound-

"It's ridiculous!"

"It's just cats and dogs raised by this palace...... It can even be deceived and calculated in turn! ”

Seeing her out-of-control appearance, Zhao Qinming grabbed the saber, got up with red eyes and tears, held the sword and raised his hand, and his movements were heavy: "Your Highness, the general trend has gone...... Please leave this place as soon as possible! ”

"Today, my subordinates only brought 10,000 horses into the palace, and under the loss, there are at most 8,000 remaining...... That Xiao Mu led 100,000 Lu Long troops, and Cai Xin and others responded, controlling the defense of Miyagi and even Jingshi was not an easy matter! ”

"As long as His Highness is safe, there will always be a time for a great cause to rise again in the future!"

"Please leave the palace quickly!"

……

What the eldest princess of Yongyang said is true-

As early as on the way to escort the prince back to the palace, Heng Yu listened to Wang Jingyong in the car and explained Xiao Mu's plan to fake his death.

Lu Longjun surrounded the Beijing Division, and she had already heard Xiao Mu mention this matter, and Yan Junshi had already prepared for this-

And with Jiang Linggong's help, this move was able to conceal and even clean up the eyeliner that Li Wei had planted everywhere outside the Beijing Division, and never leaked the news of Lu Longjun's entry into Beijing.

But Heng Yu, like Jiang Linggong, only knew that Lu Longjun would arrive, but he didn't know that Xiao Mu and Yan Meng exchanged news and made the decision to fake their death, and it was only after Wang Jingyong learned the exact plan that he really decided to escort the prince back to the palace.

……

The news that Lu Longjun had entered the palace and that Zhao Qinming had fled soon spread among the rebels.

Under the chaos of people's hearts, even if there are those who resist to the death, it is only in vain.

When the sky was about to be dusk, as the rebels outside the Wude Gate completely dispersed, a team of men and horses wearing black armor appeared outside the Wude Gate.

After receiving the crown princess, he took the princess Hengyu, who was hiding in the dark room of the Wude Palace, and ran out of the palace quickly.

The muddy and blood-stained skirt swept across the bloodstained palace road, and she saw the familiar figure in the group at a glance.

Heng Yu paused, his eyes were red, but a smile appeared on his face.

The young general turned and dismounted, and strode toward her.

Heng Yu lifted her skirt and ran, crossed the palace gate, pounced on him heavily, and hugged him.

With so much force that she knocked him back a step.

Xiao Mu was held by her, because the armor on her body was cold and hard and bloody, after hesitating for a moment, she saw that she was also covered with messy hair and her hair was scattered, so she didn't care so much, so she hugged the person in front of her from the heart.

At this moment, there was silence, and neither of them spoke.

Jin Wuxi fell, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a layer of gold on this palace that had just experienced a bloody battle, peaceful and calm.

After a while, Heng Yu broke free and lifted his head and face away.

"Your armor makes my face hurt." She rubbed half of her cheek and said.

A smile appeared between Xiao Mu's eyebrows: "I was in a hurry to see you, but I didn't think about it." ”

Hengyu sighed lightly and couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing the two smiling at each other, the person behind Xiao Mu dared to step forward.

"Ji Painter!" The tall boy stepped forward and saluted, smiling and revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"Captain Meng?"

Heng Yu looked at him in surprise, and casually looked at another person: "Yan Junshi-"

Yan Junshi came in armor today, and he also had a sword hanging from his waist, and he must have been "convincing people with reason" along the way.

But the moment he saw Hengyu, he was still smiling and kind.

At this time, accompanied by Jiang Linggong and other officials, the prince walked over quickly.

"The minister is late, I hope His Highness will punish you-" Xiao Mu saluted with a pair of subordinates.

The prince hurriedly held him up, stopped him from saluting, the corners of his eyes were already red, and the joy and happiness in his slightly hoarse voice could not be concealed: "Respect...... If only you came back safely. ”

I came back this time, and I really paid tribute to him.

Xiao Mu looked at him and said, "Seeing that His Highness is safe, the minister is also relieved." ”

Hearing this familiar and long-lost tone, the prince suppressed his tears, showed a smile, and held his arm tightly: "Jingzhi, thanks to you, Dasheng was able to survive today." ”

Several ministers on the side of the crown prince secretly exchanged glances.

The words of Dingbei Hou are actually called respect?

It is also called respect?

"Uncle Jiang Shi." Xiao Mu raised his hand to Jiang Zhengfu who came over and saluted.

Seeing that Jiang Linggong raised his hand to support Beihou's shoulder, his demeanor and demeanor were like an elder approaching the younger generation in the family, and the officials were even more confused.

They didn't have time to think deeply, but they saw a group of people walking from behind Xiao Mu, led by several men in their forties, wearing armor, and the momentum around them knew that they were battle-hardened generals.

With the sound of armor and swords clashing, those people and their subordinates knelt down towards the prince, and one of the men with a beard opened his mouth to plead guilty: "Humble Cai Xin, appointed as the commander of the cavalry guard, this time he was deceived and used by Li Wei, and almost made a big mistake, please ask the prince's palace to lower his guilt!" ”

"Please punish the Prince's Palace!" The rest of the people followed in unison.

"Your Highness, they are all my father's old department-" Xiao Mu raised his hand and explained: "It is only because Li Wei is deceived and wants to find out the truth of the Shi family's old case that he will be used by him." And this time the minister told the truth before entering Beijing, after Commander Cai and others recognized Li Wei's true face, they had already led their subordinates to break away from the rebels, and it was precisely because of them that the minister was able to enter the palace smoothly. ”

He did not mention the words of intercession, but only stated the truth.

Cai Xin and the others looked at the young man in front of them, and their hearts were greatly touched.

The Major General had obtained their defense plans before the battle, and chose to identify himself at that time, thus avoiding a single killing, and in addition to the means of war, he also had the intention of preserving them, lest they make a big mistake and never turn back—

"Not only was he deceived by others, but he was able to rein in the precipice when he woke up, and even fought side by side with the Marquis of Dingbei to repel the rebel rebels, what is wrong?" The prince looked at Cai Xin and the others: "I think that even if the merit is overdue, the merits made by you this time should also be rewarded." ”

Moreover, these old departments of the Shi family's army, over the years, have been disgraced and demoted because of being implicated in the Shi family's unjust case, and they have been treated coldly everywhere, and the court has already owed them a lot of indebtedness-

Cai Xin heard this and the others all kowtowed: "Thank Your Royal Highness Prince for forgiveness!" ”

Jiang Zhengfu's heart was also a little calm, and he immediately said: "The top priority at the moment is to find Li Wei's whereabouts as soon as possible, and we must not let the tiger go—"

The crown prince nodded: "An hour ago, Zhao Qinming and the dead soldiers raised by the eldest princess's mansion desperately escorted him to escape from the west gate of the court, and I have ordered the forbidden army to chase after him." ”

When Heng Yu heard this, he couldn't help but say: "The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and there must be remnants of its people everywhere in the city. ”

"Your Highness, the minister is willing to go to find Li Wei's whereabouts, and before dawn, he will definitely bring him back." Xiao Mu said.

The prince did not respond immediately, but looked at him worriedly: "Are you injured?" ”

Even if you don't mention entering Beijing today, just talking about the "fake death" not long ago, in order to hide from Li Wei, you must have lost half your life.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the minister is fine."

The crown prince hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "Then you must be more careful, I will wait for you to come back with Ling Gong in the palace." ”

Xiao Mu responded, turned around and explained to Yan Junshi and Meng Dazhu and others After meeting with Wang Jingyong and Lan Qing, they each assisted the forbidden army in dealing with the aftermath of various things in the palace.

Cai Xin and others also repeatedly told "Young General to be careful", and their eyes fell on Xiao Mu, like a hen who had just found her chicks, reluctant to move half an inch.

"I'll go with you." Heng Yu didn't know when he stood beside him, waited for him to explain everything, and said, "I may be able to help with this matter." ”

Not to mention anything else, at least she knows Li Wei no less than anyone else.

"Okay."

Xiao Mu agreed, took Hengyu on his horse, protected her in front of him, held the reins tightly, and the two rode out of the palace on horseback, accompanied by a column of black-armored sergeants.

Watching the two figures disappear outside the palace gate, the prince sighed with emotion: "It seems that my matchmaker is decided." ”

Jiang Zhengfu: "? ”

Shouldn't the matchmaker be his?

He said that when everything is settled, he will be a matchmaker for the two of them-

The prince treats his teacher unaware of his covetousness for the position of matchmaker.

"Your Highness, Tang Wen has been ambushed! The thousands of cavalry guards under his subordinates have all confessed their guilt and are waiting for His Highness to be handed down! A janitorial soldier stepped forward quickly.

The crown prince bowed his head and moved to the palace with Jiang Zhengfu to discuss matters.

The ministers, who had been secretly staring at each other from beginning to end, were a few steps behind, looking at each other in astonishment.

“…… Do you all understand? What is the ...... of Dingbei Hou? Ma Shangshu opened his mouth, his tongue and expression were like knots: "They said...... Major General? ”

Could it be that after Dingbeihou "came back from the dead", he even "changed the core"!

Between Dingbei Hou and Shijia——?

Is it what he thinks!

……

The moonlight was dim, the shadows of the trees were swaying in the wind, and in front of a secret passage leading to the mountains and forests here, two figures walked out one after the other.

"Your Highness......"
