In the study room of the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Tianyou was reviewing the recital, he took a book of recitals, read it again, and a flash of fierceness flashed in his eyes, this is the left attendant of the military department, Lu Nansheng, the son of Li Jiqing, the Marquis of Jinxiang, for the commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses, this Lu Nansheng is a member of the civil official group, in order to win over the Marquis of Jinxiang Li Jiqing, they really took great pains.

I can't help but think of the secret report sent by Dongchang the day before yesterday, the awakened secret spy sent the news from the second assistant Zhang Fu's mansion that shocked Emperor Tianyou, a group of rebels, in order to restrain the imperial power and attack the noble line, did not hesitate to sell military secrets, and from those few words, it was confirmed that the Hetao fiasco was indeed related to the civilian official group, especially the death of Jia Daixiao, and it was not possible that Wuzong also died at their hands.

Thinking of this, a cold light quickly flashed in Emperor Tianyou's eyes, and in an instant he regained his composure and asked Dai Quan, "What's going on with this Ang Li?" ”

Dai Quan hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, since that day, the Marquis of Jinxiang has been ill, and Li An is going back to Beijing to visit relatives. ”

"And now?"

"I was invited by the second prince of the Zhongshun Mansion to go to the Moon Tower."

"Humph! From the 26th to the present, it has only been ten days, if I didn't know the inside story, I really thought he was a filial son. ”

Emperor Tianyou casually threw the fold on the imperial case, "Let Dongchang stare at Zhangfu to death, I don't want any mistakes, whether it is Jia Jue or other people in the Xungui lineage, they are all loyal to me, they are all my right-hand men, without them, am I still an emperor?" ”

Dai Quan hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, rest assured, there will be no mistakes, the spies have already been scattered, and they will definitely not let their conspiracy succeed." ”

Emperor Tianyou nodded, and said: "Once you find out about the movement of the Warat people, immediately notify the two towns of Xuanfu and Datong, and they can't break through the Great Wall Pass." ”

At this moment, a eunuch in charge of the East Factory hurriedly came over, and Dai Quan walked out quickly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Ancestor, Yongdingmen is about to fight."

The eunuch in charge leaned into Dai Quan's ear and whispered a brief description of what happened in the Moon Tower.

"Got it, you go back first, keep an eye on it."

Dai Quan was slightly startled, and waved his hand.

Dai Quan walked back to the upper study and said to Emperor Tianyou: "Your Majesty, Sun Chenxuan, the prince of Qi State, invited King Beijing, Uncle Jia and others to a banquet in Wangyue Tower, and had a conflict with the second prince who was also in the restaurant, and the two sides agreed to fight for life and death outside the Yongding Gate. ”

Then he repeated what the eunuch had said.

Emperor Tianyou was stunned at first, and looked up at Dai Quan, suspecting that he had misheard.

Dai Quan understood, and immediately repeated it again.

Emperor Tianyou patted the imperial case, "Damn the evil obstacle, just released from the Zongren Mansion to cause trouble, and also learn to fight life and death, phew, but the gentleman who can order three-legged cat kung fu has embarrassed the clan all day long, go, arrest them all!" ”

Dai Quan: "Yes. ”

"Wait!"

Emperor Tianyou stood up suddenly, pacing back and forth in the upper study anxiously, trying his best to hide the contradiction in his heart, and finally stopped, "You take people to see, don't let that evil obstacle die in their hands, as for the rest, you can do it at your discretion." ”

Dai Quan was stunned and immediately knelt down.

There was a sudden silence in the upper study, and there was no sound.

Emperor Tianyou: "Didn't you hear what I said?" ”

Dai Quan was still prostrate there, motionless.

With a "snap", Emperor Tianyou slapped his palm on the imperial case, shaking the inkstone pen holder on the imperial case!

Dai Quan's face changed, and at this moment, the previous eunuch in charge of the East Factory hurried over again, looked at the situation in the study, was stunned at first, and then immediately knelt down outside the palace gate, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is just sent, the two sides have already selected the manpower, and agreed to start the fight from time to time." ”

"Go, bring it to me."

Dai Quan hurriedly got up, took the secret book and presented it to Emperor Tianyou.

Emperor Tianyou took it and unfolded it and only looked at it twice, threw the secret fold on the imperial case, and said coldly: "What a loyal minister!" What a gentleman who is loyal to the king, and his hands have come to my side. ”

Dai Quan was stunned.

Emperor Tianyou groaned, and only said after a while: "You go and see, don't let that evil obstacle get into trouble, and in addition, ask Jia Jue, and find a way to get rid of Lu Dayou, a thief who betrays the master, for me, and I am grateful to him." ”

"The old slave obeys."

Dai Quan bowed down and exited the upper study, turned around, and walked quickly towards the noon gate with both feet....

The news that Zhu Zaimo, the second son of King Zhongshun, was going to have a life-and-death duel with Niu Ben, the prince of Zhenguo, soon spread throughout Shenjing City, and the city was full of wind and rain, and people from all the streets and alleys rushed to tell each other.

Immediately afterwards, there was a more exciting news, in order to solve the contradiction between the two sides, under the proposal of the king of Beijing, five people from each side, in the melee outside the Yongding Gate, the sword and gun have no eyes, in order to avoid making a human life so that the hatred on both sides surged, wearing armor, using wooden knives and guns, the losing side apologized to each other in front of everyone, and the loser needed to hide from the winner in the future.

Although it has been repeatedly emphasized that it is a personal grudge, looking at the people on both sides who participated in the war, it means that this is the grievance of the noble line and the military generals who are friendly with the civil officials, not only the people of the city, but also the officials of the Manchu Dynasty are talking about it, and countless people are shocked.

On the side of King Zhongshun, the two sons of King Zhongshun were Zhu Zaimo, the son of the Marquis of Jinxiang, Li An, the commander of the Xiaoyong battalion, Ji'an Boxiao Yanqing, the commander of the Liwei battalion, Jining Bohongtai, and the general of the forbidden army, Lu Dayou.

Xungui's side of the battle were: Niu Ben, the prince of Zhenguo, Sun Chenxuan, the commander of the forbidden army, Sun Chenxuan, the commander of the Guoyong battalion, Nanyang Bo Gaoping, the commander of the Ruishi battalion, the third-class Bo Jia Jue, and Feng Ziying, the son of the Shenwu general.

Just after three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Zaimo, who was dressed in armor, rode a tall horse, carried a spear, and came to the open space outside the Yongding Gate surrounded by dozens of palace guards, and the onlookers saw him, and they all unconsciously took a few steps back, but they were very proud and happy about these Zhu Zaimo, seeing that no one had arrived, Zhu Zaimo turned over and dismounted, sat down on the chair set by the guards to recuperate, and someone fanned him.

After a while, Lu Dayou, the general of the forbidden army with a blue face, walked in, walked straight to Zhu Zaimo and sat down, and ignored Zhu Zaimo, he was very anxious, he was born in martial arts, and he was a general placed in the forbidden army by the civilian official group, and he had been so lurking, but he didn't expect that because this gentleman was exposed, when he came, he went to find Lu Nansheng, the left attendant of the military department, and Lu Nansheng was also powerless about this, this is not what they meant, if you want to blame Lu Dayou, you can only blame Lu Dayou's bad life, but he met Zhu Zaimo, a pig teammate.

Thinking of this, he sighed slightly, after fighting this battle, he resigned, otherwise he would not be able to leave if it was too late, but fortunately, his family was not around.

Time passed slowly, Zhu Zaimo couldn't sit still, and was about to speak, when someone shouted loudly: "King Zhongshun is here!" ”

The onlookers all turned their heads to look at the city gate, only to see Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun, walking over with the support of two guards, Zhu Zaimo hurriedly stepped forward, and personally supported the king of Zhongshun, "Father, why are you here?" ”

"Humph! I'm going back to settle accounts with you. ”

Zhu Houjiong shook off Zhu Zaimo's hand, he glanced at Lu Dayou, who was still sitting in the chair silently, remembering what Zhang Fu had just said, he couldn't help glaring at Zhu Zaimo fiercely, stepped forward and bowed his hand and said: "My son is young and reckless, today is an unintentional move, causing trouble to the general, this king will compensate him heavily, please be more forgiving." ”

Just as he was speaking, Li An, Xiao Yanqing and Hong Tai also led their own soldiers and family members to walk in, and when they heard the words, they looked at Lu Dayou together, but Lu Dayou was expressionless, without saying a word, as if he hadn't heard anything, a trace of cold light quickly flashed in Zhu Houjiong's eyes, and in an instant he regained his smile, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "General Lu, before coming, this king specially went to visit the second assistant, and the second assistant said that the general would be transferred to Shandong." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

Lu Dayou slowly stood up and arched his hand to King Zhongshun.

Zhu Houjiong waved his hand, and a palace guard came over with a tray with a set of armor on it, and Lu Dayou's eyes were full of puzzlement.

The guard put the tray on Zhu Zaimo's seat and retreated.

Zhu Houjiong gave a few people a look, and Li An, Xiao Yanqing, and Hong Tai exchanged a knowing look and walked over.

Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun, picked up the helmet placed on the top, and there was a palm-sized crossbow below, ignoring the shocked few people, and smiled at Lu Dayou: "This is what they mean, get rid of Jia Jue, you are the general soldier of Shandong." ”

Speaking of this, after a pause, Fang continued: "Of course, the general can also refuse, you will still be transferred to Shandong to serve, as for the position, it depends on the meaning of Your Majesty and the Ministry of War, of course, the compensation that should be paid by this king will not be less." ”

Lu Dayou was stunned, staring at the tray with his eyes, motionless.

A sneer appeared in Zhu Houjiong's eyes.

Xiao Yanqing and Hong Tai exchanged anxious looks, and Ang Lee's face became bluer and bluer.

After a while, Lu Dayou's pale face barely showed a little smile, "I hope the prince will not forget his promise." ”

Zhu Houjiong smiled faintly, "Don't worry, this king is the most trustworthy promise." ”

Before he could say a word, there was a commotion at the city gate, and a few people turned around, only to see Jia Jue and others rushing to a carriage, the carriage stopped, and the two forbidden soldiers helped Dai Quan down from the carriage.
