Luoyang City is now in full swing, although the rebels did not burn and loot after rushing into the city, but they fought with the patrol battalion and the forbidden army in Luoyang City, and there were many [calamities] hidden in the rebels, assassinating the officers of the forbidden army, causing chaos in the forbidden army.

Many people of Luoyang spontaneously took up arms to resist the rebels, and the Jianghu rangers and guardian warriors resisted one after another, no one could have imagined that Emperor Wu agreed to Zhao Zili's establishment of the reform of the Dao Division, which actually played such a big role at this time, and the 200,000 elite rebels could not advance for a while.

If it weren't for the [Disaster Public] secretly contributing, Luoyang would not have fallen into chaos at all

"I have to say that Emperor Wu's rule has won the hearts of the people, and these rangers are so willing to sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths." Liang Zhongchun's face was gloomy, he didn't expect Luoyang City to resist so much in addition to the forbidden army and the city defense battalion.

If it weren't for Mount Meru opening the southern gate, they wouldn't have been able to attack Luoyang City at all, it was really a terrible city and a terrible Emperor Wu.

The current strength is 200,000 Liangzhou troops and 50,000 troops from Mount Meru and Sima Cuo, against the remaining 60,000 forbidden troops of Emperor Wu and 100,000 defenders of Luoyang.

Originally, the 100,000 defenders of Luoyang City had a very strong combat effectiveness, and it was not surprising that it was enough to resist Liang Zhongchun's rebels, but under the banner of counterinsurgency, Zhao Zilei, the king of Jiujiang, suddenly changed his mind at the north gate of Luoyang, and suddenly joined the rebels to storm Luoyang from the north gate, which caused Emperor Wu to be caught off guard, and many officers were assassinated, and the Luoyang defenders fell into chaos.

The army of more than 100,000 people was difficult to take care of, and they were beaten in pieces, which everyone did not expect. The mistake of Jianmen Pass made Emperor Wu completely passive all of a sudden, Luoyang City has been completely besieged by the rebels, and the entire palace is also in danger, and there is no way out.

In the palace, although Emperor Wu was a little anxious, he had not lost an inch, he knew that there must be a huge black hand behind all this, otherwise the eldest prince and the fourth prince would definitely not rebel, even if they rebelled, there would not be so many back-hands, it must be the [disaster] who made a move.

It's really terrible, he killed so many people, and he was just a peripheral member of the disaster, no wonder so many powerful regimes and heroes in the world were victimized by the [disaster], but he believed that Da Zhou would never repeat the mistakes of the past, and he still had the last hope At this moment, Emperor Wu stood high in the palace, Cao Zhengchun stayed quietly aside, at this time he already understood that the Lord of the disaster already knew the fact of his betrayal, and he didn't receive any news for such a big action, it seems that he also underestimated his former master.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the news has spread out, and the kings from all over the country will definitely come in time, and His Royal Highness King Song will definitely not have problems in the Great Zhou." Emperor Wu shook his head and said: "It's too late, Jianmen Pass has fallen into the hands of the enemy, and all places are also anxious, you are right, fortunately, Zili has already left, and he will definitely recover in Dazhou." "Emperor Wu is glad that Zhao Zili is not trapped in Luoyang, the successor of [Qiji Dao], even if it is a disaster, he will definitely not succeed easily, as long as Lao Qi is still alive, he will definitely revive the Great Zhou.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Song should have received the news at this moment, his Haining army will definitely come in time, and he is the only one in the world who can fight against the rebels."

"Hopefully, by the way, Zifeng, they are at the queen's place." Emperor Wu asked. As soon as the rebels entered the city, Zhao Ziyu and Zhao Zifeng entered the palace and vowed to live and die with Emperor Wu, so Emperor Wu was very moved, it was extremely difficult to make such a decision between life and death, and it took great courage.

"Back to Your Majesty, the two princesses are protecting the Queen Mother and the Eleventh Prince, and they are still very safe." Cao Zhengchun also admired it very much, who said that women are not as good as men, and the two princesses are women who do not let their eyebrows go.

"The second child really didn't disappoint me, but it's a pity, I still wasn't good enough for him before." Emperor Wu left two lines of tears.

The second prince Zhao Ziyan led the city defense battalion to desperately resist the rebels of the eldest prince Zhao Zilin, and was finally outnumbered, but he never surrendered and finally died heroically, and he was the only prince who died in battle, and his body was also hung on the city tower by the rebels.

"Your Majesty, don't let down the sacrifice of the second prince." In the past, Cao Zhengchun didn't look down on this second prince, and he didn't expect that at this critical moment, he could give up his life to protect Emperor Wu Emperor Wu wiped his tears, and at this time, Duan Tianya came covered in blood: "Your Majesty, it's not good, a terrifying giant beast sneaked up on Xuanhu Villa, and Weichen couldn't defeat it, and there were eight great grandmasters with it, and the owner of the village was fighting with the three ancestors." Emperor Wu's eyes closed, it seemed that the calamity had also used all his family resources this time, and then asked: "What happened to Yuanzhi and the others, where are the three ancestors." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the owner of the village and the three ancestors were attacked and all injured, and less than thirty percent of the remaining Ouchi secret agents survived." Duan Tianya wept bitterly, his friends who had been with him for more than ten years died in the mouth of the giant beast like that, if they hadn't been attacked by a sneak attack, how could they have been killed and injured so badly.

"Duan Tianya passed on my will, and Xuanhu Mountain Villa immediately retreated, preserving the vitality and not making fearless sacrifices. Cao Zhengchun went to get the jade seal and went to the queen's palace. Cao Zhengchun looked at Emperor Wu fiercely, he understood what Emperor Wu was going to do, there was no other way at this moment, it was already a matter of time before the palace was broken.

Kunning Palace, Queen Nangong sat with Zhao Zifeng and Zhao Ziyu, and the three of them did not cry and wipe their tears, they were all strong people.

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the seventh brother has received the news, even if I die unfortunately, he will be able to destroy the rebels." Zhao Ziyu's performance was unexpected, at this moment she was calm and light, and she didn't seem to take the rebels outside to heart at all.

"Yes, although it is not a pity for the palace to die, the army is still young." As a mother, Nangong Ling naturally didn't want her son to die at such a young age.

"The queen mother can rest assured, there is a very hidden secret passage in the Song Palace, which was built by the seventh brother in order to avoid disaster, and after the forbidden army attracted away the enemy's main force, he found the right time to hide the eleventh brother in it." Zhao Zifeng has already thought of a way out, Luoyang's Song Wangfu Zhao Zili specially opened up Wang Baoshan and the mansion, and built several secret passages, which are very secret.

Later, Zhao Zifeng also expanded part of it on the original basis, and now some ministers have hid in Xie An and others, and there are some secret passages leading directly outside the city, which is the last hand arranged by Zhao Zili.

"Great, I'll leave everything to you." Nangong Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally saw a glimmer of hope in her misfortune.

"Your Majesty has arrived."

"It's good that you're all here." Emperor Wu walked in with Cao Zhengchun and a team of forbidden troops at this time.

"See Your Majesty."

"Queen, go and call the soldiers, I have something to say to him." Emperor Wu's face was as usual, and the palace at this time could already hear the sound of fighting outside.

"Ziyu, Zifeng, listen to it together, and there are still some things for you."

"The retainers obeyed." The two looked at each other the same, and they both had some guesses. After a while, Nangong Ling brought Zhao Zijun over, although he was young, he was talented and intelligent, and he also knew that it was a time of crisis, his little face was full of perseverance, and there was no crying.

"It's all here, Cao Zhengchun, take back the jade seal and the holy decree." Cao Zhengchun handed over the holy decree and the jade seal to Emperor Wu respectfully.

The jade seal and the two holy decrees have been prepared in advance, and Cao Zhengchun is very clear about the contents inside, and Emperor Wu is afraid that he will have to take care of himself.

"The eleventh prince Zhao Zijun took the order." Emperor Wu personally read the holy decree, and everyone knelt down.

"The retainers take the order."

"Since ancient times, the emperor has succeeded the heavens and established the imperial area, and will establish the Yuan Prince, Maolong Guoben, and the Mianzong Society will have no borders. I have been working hard all night. Look up to the ancestors of Mo Lie. Entrusted. Cheng Ao Yanqing, end in Yuanliang. The eleventh prince Zhao Zijun and the Japanese watch Yingqi. Talented. I hereby abide by the mercy of the previous emperors. Ceremony of Inspection. Bow to public opinion. I would like to tell heaven and earth, the temple, and the community. On January 11, the 11th year of Tianwu year, Zhao Zijun was awarded a treasure. He was made the crown prince. It is located in the East Palace, with the unity of 10,000 years and the heart of the four seas. ”

"The sons and daughters thank their father and the emperor Longen, long live, long live, long live."

"Zijun, now is a time of crisis, and the hope of Da Zhou depends on you." Emperor Wu helped Zhao Zijun up and said earnestly.

He doesn't want to leave a stable country for his children and grandchildren, now that the building is about to fall, everything can only be simplified, and he can only hope in times of crisis.

"Father, rest assured, the sons and daughters will swear to defend the Great Zhou." Zhao Zijun patted his chest. Emperor Wu was very moved, and said to the queen: "Ling'er, are you afraid? Nangong Lingwan smiled and said: "Your Majesty said that it is a blessing to be able to live and die with Your Majesty for decades, where can I be afraid, I just feel that I haven't had enough with Your Majesty." ”

"Okay, Cao Zhengchun I know your identity, and I also know your relationship with Zili, and now I will hand over the prince and princess to you, I please." Cao Zhengchun was shocked, he couldn't imagine that Emperor Wu actually knew his identity, and he was already so kind to him at this moment, so open-minded that he deserved to be a generation of virtuous emperors.

"The old slave is full of liver and brain, it is difficult to repay His Majesty's kindness, Your Majesty can rest assured, the old slave will definitely protect the safety of the prince and the princess."

"Your Majesty, the passage has been opened, but it won't last long, Your Majesty should leave quickly." After a hard battle, Meng Tiankui and Xiao Bieli finally opened a way out of the palace, and the tens of thousands of forbidden troops were left less than three percent at the moment.

"Okay, Ziyu, Zifeng, this holy decree must be handed over to Zili, I will hand over all the power of the country's soldiers and horses to him, and the new emperor will ascend the throne in the future, if his words and deeds are misconducted, he can be abolished by himself, or he can be established as the emperor, and no one in the world of the Great Zhou can cure him for any crimes."

"If the son obeys the order, he will definitely live up to his father's trust." The two knew that Emperor Wu had already had the will to die, and the top priority was to leave the palace as soon as possible to find Zhao Zili, and they must not let Emperor Wu sacrifice in vain.

"Meng Tiankui, escort the prince and princess away, I can't go, they can't leave if I leave." Emperor Wu also handed over the jade seal to Zhao Zifeng, and hurriedly asked people to take them away.

"Weichen obeys the order, Your Majesty can rest assured that as long as Weichen does not die, he will definitely protect the safety of the three highnesses." Meng Tiankui burst into tears, but the urgency of the situation was not the time to be hypocritical, he picked up Zhao Zijun and left the palace with Zhao Ziyu and Zhao Zifeng through the secret passage.

Yuan Shi suddenly came at this time, only to see that he was just me to take an arm, and there were countless wounds under the mountain.

"Your Majesty, the Weichen of Xuanhu Mountain Villa has also been arranged, my injury is too serious to leave, so I will accompany Your Majesty."

"Uncle Huang has worked hard, Ling'er pours tea, I want to play a game of chess with Uncle Huang." Emperor Wu sat down, Nangong Ling poured two cups of tea slowly, and Yuanxuan didn't say anything, as if everything in the outside world didn't exist.

With the cooperation of hundreds of thousands of troops and internal ghosts, the forbidden army was defeated and retreated, but it was still holding on.

"Your Highness, our army has already controlled most of the places, as long as the palace is breached, Your Highness can ascend the throne and become the emperor." Zhao Zilin looked at everything in front of him, he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, he was very excited, as if he saw the day when he became the emperor.

"Jia Zheng did a good job, ordered all the troops to storm the palace, and the palace wanted to save his father and the emperor and pacify these rebels." Zhao Zilin thought about it, and once he broke through the palace, he claimed that he had saved Da Zhou at a time of crisis, but it was too late for Emperor Wu to be killed, and as the eldest son, he naturally ascended the throne and became the emperor.

In the corner of the palace, Cao Zhengchun and Meng Tiankui quietly left the palace with Zhao Ziyu and moved towards the Song Palace.

The remaining Praetorian Army is attracting the attention of the enemy, buying them time to escape. The group disguised themselves as ordinary people fleeing, and successfully deceived several rebel checkpoints, no one would have thought that Emperor Wu would dare to let them leave the palace at this time.

Even Zhao Zicheng thought that Emperor Wu would run, and when he saw that Emperor Wu's luck was still in the palace, he didn't notice the departure of Zhao Zijun and his party.

Cao Zhengchun suddenly stopped and said, "General Meng, Your Royal Highness the Princess, you guys go first, if I'm not in the palace, the rebels will be suspicious, and I'm going to break the queen." ”

"Father-in-law Cao, cherish all the way." For the first time, Meng Tiankui felt that this old eunuch was really a gentleman.

"Tell the prince for me, the old slave has fulfilled his request." After returning to the palace gate, he slapped several rebels to death, which also successfully attracted everyone's attention.

"Cao Zhengchun actually left Emperor Wu's side, and the battle order quickly mobilized people to surround the palace, Emperor Wu was afraid that he would run, and Meng Tiankui also disappeared, so go and do it quickly." Seeing this, Zhao Zicheng immediately mobilized a large number of people to surround the entire palace, and Meng Tiankui took the opportunity to escape from the palace with a few people.

Under the siege of several great grandmasters and first-class masters, the powerful Cao Zhengchun finally couldn't hold on, and fell to the ground with serious injuries, if it weren't for the [Tiangang Tongzigong] defense was strong enough, he would have been unable to hold on to other great grandmasters.

The forbidden army still resisted stubbornly under the leadership of Xiao Bieli, in order to fight for the last time for Zhao Zijun and his party to escape, they were all strong men carefully selected by Emperor Wu, and they also broke out in a desperate situation, dragging a large number of rebel masters, but as time went by, the palace was still breached, and as the rebels attacked the palace, Zhao Zicheng began to search for Emperor Wu's figure throughout the palace.
