0944 Doomed
At this time, the Zhongwai Mansion was already in shambles, and there were traces of battle everywhere in front and behind the straight hall, and many of the palace servants retreated in the corners and shivered, lest they be affected.
"Where is Li Zhi, this dog thief? I will treat this thief with all my heart, and the thief will dare to betray me!"
After returning to the mansion, Yuwen Jue cursed loudly, his face turned a little pale with anger, which showed his resentment towards Li Zhi for betraying him.
After a long while, the government officials came out tremblingly and told Yuwenjue about the turmoil.
It turned out that when Li Zhi learned that the king of Taiyuan had entered Tongguan and sent people to Tongzhou City to announce the order, he felt that the general trend had gone.
He did not continue to have illusions like Yuwenjue and went out of the city to fight, but according to the previous plan, he went to the house of Xiao Sima Cai You, preparing to persuade him to lead the forbidden army to retreat to Yuanzhou Township with the emperor, in order to temporarily avoid the edge of Li Boshan, the king of Taiyuan.
As a result, this matter was categorically rejected by Cai You, so a conflict broke out between the two parties in Cai You's house. Because Cai You had been dismissed from his post and was at home before, only his own soldiers could be called up for a while, so he was rushed out of his home by Li Zhi and returned to the Chinese and foreign mansions.
Cai You led his troops to fight all the way to the Zhongwai Mansion, but because the person who was the leader of the Zhongwai Mansion on this day was Li Zhi's brother Li Ji, Cai You was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the two brothers, so he could only go to the Inner Mansion to protect the Otsuka Zai family in the Mansion.
Li Zhi was also afraid of the trouble, and it was difficult to get out, so he packed up and plundered a number of Chinese and foreign government personnel, and together with his brother Li Ji, led more than 1,000 soldiers and then left the city.
After Yuwen Jue learned about this incident, he was even more angry and trembled, he never expected that Li Zhi, who had always trusted him, would hide a dangerous plan in his heart, only felt that the world was treacherous and the people's hearts were sinister, and then he thought that when he went out of the city to pursue the enemy, he was turned away from the camp by the soldiers of the forbidden army, and he felt that the whole world was full of malice.
But after learning that Cai You actually fought back and did not go along with Li Zhi, Yu Wenjue secretly hoped in his heart, and he no longer cared about what Li Zhi had taken away from the mansion, so he went straight to the inner mansion by bypassing the straight hall.
At this time, in front of the gate of the Inner Mansion, Cai You stood in heavy armor, and on the left and right were dozens of his soldiers, all of whom were also arrayed in front of the Inner Mansion with swords and sticks.
When Yuwen Jue came here, he bowed to Cai You from afar, and said in a sincere tone, "Thank you Huaining Gong, thank you! No wonder the lord often said before his death that if the subordinates of the government are loyal and righteous, Huaining Gong will win the first place! The former female thief bewitched me and alienated me from loyal ministers, but fortunately, Huaining Gong was still willing to sacrifice his life to serve regardless of his previous suspicions, if it were not for Huaining Gong's hard resistance, his family and country would be in danger!"
During this period of time, Yuwenjue has always been arrogant and invincible, and now that the strong enemy is approaching, and he has been betrayed by his henchmen, he feels that he is at the end of the road, but he didn't expect that there would be a lonely and loyal person like Cai You who will not give up, so he is also grateful in his heart, and his attitude towards Cai You has become respectful and polite.
However, Cai You just stood in place, just ignoring Yuwenjue's gesture of gratitude.
Yuwen Jue felt that he was at a loss, and now he has regarded Cai You as his lifeline, so he doesn't think about it, and then he said: "I listened to the words of the woman before, and cut Huaining's public office. Today's female thief exposed herself ugly, which made me realize the past wrongs, and immediately reinstated Huaining's public power and made another appointment.
Now there are still tens of thousands of soldiers available in the house, and since then they have all been dispatched by the Duke of Huaining, and the Duke is invited to defend the city for me to resist the enemy. But if you can force a strong enemy, reward the prince with a king, tear the earth to seal, if the prince does not believe, you can make an oath!"
When Cai You heard this, a slight wave flashed in his eyes, he took a step forward, looked at Yuwen Jue and said in a deep voice: "A certain Longbian Shuren, Yuanzhou Pifu, fortunately appreciated the favor of the Lord and won the favor of today. What I wish in life is not to be revealed, but I hope to live up to this grace. The Lord is on a journey, which makes people's hearts ache. Before leaving, I will go to the soup and fire, and I will not give up!"
When Yu Wenjue heard this, his face immediately showed joy, he knew that his authority was now greatly damaged, and it was probably difficult to mobilize the people outside the city, and if he wanted to resist Li Boshan, who was about to return to the school, he could only rely on Cai You, a prestigious and loyal general.
However, Cai You's next words instantly extinguished the hope in his heart: "The former is slightly more capricious and has his own plans
, many reckless actions have destroyed the Lord's legacy, and a certain person has not been able to forbid it, and he deeply regrets it. Today, some military ministers have returned to the country to settle the chaos, and they are also under the orders of the Lord. What I wish now, I only give up this body to take care of the main family. Please stop here and don't enter the back house of the inner mansion, otherwise Hugh will blame the sword soldiers for being ruthless!"
Hearing that Cai You not only ignored his overtures, but even forbade him to set foot in the inner mansion again, Yuwenjue's face suddenly changed, but now the bad situation made him lose his previous arrogance after all, and soon his angry expression turned into pleading: "My ignorant young man was suddenly changed by his family, and he was bewitched by female cadres, so that he made a mistake, and Duke Huaining wanted to abandon me...... If Li Boshan returns, I will have no way to live, so I beg the Duke of Huaining to have mercy on me!"
"Then may I ask Duke Luoyang, is Duke Ning Dugong pitiful? I summoned him back to the house, but I didn't want the Duke of Luoyang to be so vicious and intolerable!"
When Cai You said this, he also looked sad and indignant, glared angrily at Yuwen Jue, who was still pleading, and said angrily: "After all, the Duke of Luoyang is the blood of the lord, and he dare not harm him. But now that he is here, he will never allow the Duke of Luoyang to enter the inner mansion again and harm his relatives!"
The killing of Yuwenyu was a secret act before, and the outside world still does not know that Li Zhi, as the executor of this matter, informed Cai You of this matter in order to prove Yuwenjue's madness.
Cai You's relationship with Ningdu Gongyu Wenyu was already quite friendly, and he was furious when he heard about it, but he did not conspire with Li Zhi because of this, but wanted to capture and kill Li Zhi to avenge him, but because he was outnumbered, he could only retreat to the back house of the Zhongwai Mansion and no longer let people enter the house to harass Otsuka Zai's family.
At this time, Zhao Yongren, the son of Zhao Gui, who also served as General Wuwei, was waiting to be here to inspect the situation, and after hearing Cai You's accusation against Luoyang Gong, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly led his troops to evacuate here.
Yuwenjue begged, but because of his bad deeds, he couldn't convince Cai You to serve him after all, so he could only return to the Chinese and foreign mansions in despair. And when he came to Zhitang, he found that there were originally thousands of cronies and party members, but now there were only 100 people gathered here, and he was immediately panicked and angry: "Where have all the people gone!"
The cronies were also panicked at this moment, and each bowed his head silently, and no one answered the question. Some people saw Yu Wenjue's irritable appearance, and they couldn't help but feel remorse, and they shouldn't continue to stay.
Yuwen Jue naturally knew where the disappeared person had gone, it was nothing more than that he had abandoned him and fended for himself like Li Zhi, and the blow of betrayal and separation from his relatives made him extremely sad and angry, but after venting for a moment in front of the straight hall, he laughed again, gritted his teeth and shouted: "The dog thief betrayed me and thought he could live? The former killing of Da Sima is on this day! If I do not exist, and Li Boshan is in power, you will all die, and you will all die! Wherever you flee, you will give me a burial!"
The rest of the party members who were still hesitating whether to flee or not heard Yu Wenjue's desperate shout, and they were all frightened for a while and became even more uneasy. Yes, the king of Taiyuan is already in great trouble, if he really returns to the country and takes power, where can they go to these minions who are fighting for the tiger?
"Instead of running everywhere and being chased and killed by pigs and dogs, it is better to stay here and assassinate Wang Zhi of Taiyuan when he is arrogant and unprepared!"
Suddenly, someone muttered in a low voice, and after hearing this, whether it was Yu Wenjue or those frustrated party members, their eyes lit up for a while, and they all gathered around again.
Even if these people don't know history, they also know the stories of many powerful people who overturned in the gutter. Now they can be called desperate, no matter how feasible the plan is, at least it is a consolation for them now.
Not to mention the dying and struggling plans of these people, after Zhao Yongren learned the news that Yu Wenyu was dead, he went to his father's house arrest to report the matter, and Zhao Gui was a little dumbfounded after learning about it, and only sighed after a while: "Although this Luoyang public power technique does not catch Otsuka Zai, it is ruthless but victorious! Fortunately, his evil was exposed before he could achieve his wings, and if he was in the middle of the year, I am afraid that my generation would be subject to his people!"
"Ning Dugong is dead, it's hard to make a repeat plan, can you still live?"
Zhao Yongren said with a bitter face, you must know that the fire that burned Duguxin was lit by him himself.
When Zhao Gui heard this question, his eyes also dimmed, and after a little thought, he said, "Where is the Son of Heaven now? I'm going to the guard who won't leave an inch,
You, you first send the family members out of the city to be properly settled, all the wives and concubines, maids, and maids, and those who have entered the curtain to serve, do not leave any of them out! Then you enter the mansion again, stay on the side of the Duke of Luoyang, and don't let him escape from the mansion! Go, go!"
Although the king of Taiyuan did not arrive, with the announcement of his decree, the entire Tongzhou city has changed the sky. The power of Wenjue's henchmen collapsed, and most of the soldiers and civilians in the city also obeyed the orders of the king of Taiyuan and rarely saw pedestrians in camps, at home, and in the streets and alleys.
Emperor Tuoba Kuo was forcibly taken to the city tower to watch the battle by Yuwen Jue, but soon the battle started in the Chinese and foreign mansions, so the emperor was also put on the city tower.
It took several hours before the king of Guangping, Tuoba Zan, who had been under house arrest, to lead a team of armor soldiers to find the emperor who had been sitting on the city tower for a long time.
Then, after some discussion, for the sake of safety, the emperor simply escorted the emperor to the residence of the king of Taiyuan in Tongzhou City to settle down. At least even if there is chaos in the city in the future, the Taiyuan Royal Mansion will be much safer than the Chinese and foreign mansions.
It wasn't until nightfall that Zhao Gui, who had searched almost the whole city, finally learned the whereabouts of the emperor, so he hurriedly searched for it.
However, the Taiyuan palace has long been occupied by many civil and military ministers who heard the news, although Zhao Gui is respected as a pillar country, but at this time there is not much face, can only shrink in the Taiyuan palace door, although it is a little difficult to breathe and turn around, but still endure and dare not leave.
