After learning that Lou Zhao had tightened the palace gate in broad daylight, the kings of the sect already knew that the matter had been revealed, and the king of Qinghe, Yuan Yan, immediately gathered people outside the mansion.

Although there are many people who follow the example of Wang Yuanchen of Zhao County, they close the door after returning home, and they are unwilling to get involved.

But there were still four or five thousand people gathered, including clan slaves, prodigal light heroes, and scoundrels in the market.

Yuan Jian has never turned back at all, and the example since Liu Song is in front of him.

Liu Yu killed Sima first, Xiao Daocheng slaughtered Liu, his nephew Xiao Luan exterminated Xiao Daocheng's heirs, and Xiao Yan killed all Xiao Luan's children and grandchildren after being unwilling.

Which time the powerful ministers usurped the country, it was not to kill the corpses of the former dynasty clan everywhere.

How could Yuan Wei and others pin their hopes on Gao Huan's loyalty to Yuan Wei, and how could Yuan Wei be angry with Gao Huan?

When Gao Huan entered Luoyang, the clans were not fighting for the position of the Son of Heaven, but actually fighting for the position of the leader of the alliance who would rebel against the Gao family in the future.

The Son of Heaven is not young enough to be a big deal, and the person in charge is naturally Yuan Yan.

There was no problem with Hu Sichun's strategy, but if he did not act secretly, a coup d'état could only turn into a rebellion.

Yuan Jian didn't have time to wait for Hu Sichun to enter the city, he hurriedly led his subordinates to the palace city, hoping that the forbidden army generals who had already contacted would open the palace gate, but this scene never happened.

"Lou Zhao! What do you want to do when you cut off the forbidden news? ”

Yuan Jian shouted towards the palace wall.

Yuan Xiu on the side shouted:

"Lou Zhao wants to kill the Son of Heaven, why don't the soldiers of the forbidden army follow us and other thieves."

The forbidden soldiers on the palace wall were panicked, whispering to each other, after the generals were recruited to discuss matters, they never came back, but Lou Zhao sent someone to take charge of the ministry, who didn't know that this was a big change in the palace city.

The first thing those people did after taking office was to lead the guards to kill all the former cronies, and under the palace walls, there were people everywhere.

Such bloody measures really deterred the soldiers of the forbidden army.

They were glanced around by the chiefs and quieted down.

Seeing that there was no expected sound of fighting on the palace wall, Yuan Jian and the others could only think of another way, how could they storm the palace without siege equipment.

"Yuan Yan and other thieves conspired against him, the chaotic party in the army was all ambushed, the Son of Heaven has an edict, only the first evil, you and other ignorance, go quickly at this time, and will not be investigated."

On the palace wall, Lou Zhao shouted loudly, and with a wave of his hand, six heads were thrown off the palace wall, all of whom were forbidden generals loyal to the Yuan clan.

And Chen Yuankang also unfolded the edict in a timely manner and recited it aloud.

Seeing that his own people's hearts were unstable, Yuan Xiu shouted:

"A thief kills a king, this is an edict."

The ingot torch was also shouting with him:

"Avenge the Son of Heaven! Kill the thieves! ”

A year ago, Gao's slogan of rebelling against the Erzhu clan fell on him like this.

"King Qinghe, the inner should be removed, it will be difficult for us to enter the palace, and we should take care of it again at this time."

After Yuan Xiu stabilized people's hearts, he suggested to Yuan Yan.

Yuan Jian had no choice but to ask Yuan Xiu for advice:

"What is the plan of the King of Pingyang, please come quickly."

Yuan Xiu rolled his eyes and came up with a poisonous plan:

"Most of the families of the forbidden army are in the city, so we might as well threaten their families, so there will be chaos in the palace!"

Yuan Yan was overjoyed when he heard this:

"Wang Zhen of Pingyang is the think tank of the clan."

He immediately ordered the kings of the sect to scatter and search for the families of the forbidden army.

The backyard of the Qinghe Palace.

Yuan Zhonghua wiped her tears, the right side of her face was swollen, and the bright red slap mark did not disappear for a long time, which was the beating she persuaded Yuan Kang to stop after learning the news.

My sister, the eldest princess of Henan, was upset by her crying and scolded:

"You take care of your husband, who has only worshiped heaven and earth, have you ever thought about the life of the whole family! The matter has come to this point, even if my father stops, can the Gao family still let us go! ”

Yuan Zhonghua cried and choked up:

"Things shouldn't be like this, my brother married the daughter of the Gao family, and I also married into the Gao family, the two families should be harmonious, why should my father still stir up trouble."

Nine-year-old Yuan Zhonghua really couldn't understand how the originally good in-laws had reached the state of dying.

"Do you really think of yourself as the daughter-in-law of the Gao family? How many times has Gao Zihui seen you since you got married? He hadn't even climbed the steps outside the Qinghe Palace, wake up, Zhonghua! He doesn't have you in his heart at all! ”

The eldest princess of Henan tries to wake her sister up from her fantasy.

"Yes! He said, I'm too young now, I'm afraid of getting along for a long time, I can't control it, I'm worried about hurting my body, he is my husband, I believe in him! ”

Yuan Zhonghua stood up suddenly and retorted.

Seeing her stubborn appearance, the eldest princess of Henan could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, and slapped her sister who had always loved her in the face, swelling her other face.

"Good! You go! You go to Gao Zihui! You go to Jinyang to report the news! I only ask you, Mrs. Gao, to shed a tear for us when the Qinghe Wangfu family is dying. ”

I don't know if this slap stunned Yuan Zhonghua, or was frightened by the sentence that the family died.

Yuan Zhonghua covered his face and froze in place.

The eldest princess of Henan regretted this slap, she hugged Yuan Zhonghua and cried:

"It's useless, Zhonghua, my father shouldn't let my brother be this son of heaven."

"Sister, this shouldn't be the case."

Yuan Zhonghua muttered.

The eldest princess of Henan looked at her stunned appearance, distressed, and secretly thought to herself: If Zhonghua is sent to the Bohai Palace, her father will be defeated, maybe Zhonghua will be able to save her life, and if it is successful, her father will not harm his daughter.

"Zhonghua, I'll have someone send you to the Bohai Palace."

The eldest princess of Henan stroked Yuan Zhonghua's head.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhonghua shook her head and refused, feeling her sister's love, she raised her head and smiled:

"Sister, no need, I'll accompany you."

The smile on her face covered the dead silence in her heart, what else could she choose.

Surviving on your own and watching your whole family die?

In broad daylight, the news of King Qinghe's gathering of people to rebel had already spread all over the streets.

Under the auspices of Yang Su, the two departments of the Listening Department and the Administrative Affairs Office were transferred to the nearby Bohai Palace.

There are also hundreds of Gao Cheng's personal guards left in Luoyang in the mansion.

Yang Su ordered people to go out to find out the news, and asked them to inquire about Yang Kuan's whereabouts by the way, lest something happen to him.

Erzhu Ying'e was dressed in military uniform and led the maidservants to the front yard.

"Yang Changshi, what's the situation in the city?"

"Your Royal Highness, earlier there was news that Lou led the army to close the palace gate, Yuan Kang led thousands of people to a stalemate outside the palace, and now the situation is still unclear, please don't worry, go back to the backyard to rest first, there are still guards in the house, and they will be able to hold on until the prince returns."

Yang Su persuaded him.

Er Zhu Ying'e refused to leave, which made Yang Su, who was busy assigning guards to guard the palace, very embarrassed:

Isn't it a mess for a woman to mix something in such an urgent time!

Soon, news came back that Yuan Yan and others were searching for the families of the forbidden army in the city.

Yang Su immediately guessed that he wanted to use his family to force the forbidden army to mutiny, he secretly scolded, but he was helpless.

"Your Highness, you can't go out!"

The shouts of a scribe woke Yang Su.

......

Outside Luoyang City, Zheng Quan, a secret agent of the Tingwang Division who had been in the den of thieves for several days, finally walked out of the manor, but not alone.

Hu Sichun shouted in the manor, saying that the Gao clan was plotting rebellion, imprisoned the Son of Heaven, and wanted to take them to the palace to rescue them.

After another promise of wealth and wealth, he brought out the 800 Heavenly Son's army and the original slaves in the manor, totaling more than 1,000 people.

Instead, more than 1,000 people were brought out by Hu Sichun with the 800 Heavenly Son's pro-army, as well as the original slaves in the manor.

Zheng Quan couldn't find a chance to get out, so he could only hope that after entering the city, he could take advantage of the chaos to leave.

There was a riot in the city, and the soldiers guarding the city gate had already scattered and fled, and Hu Sichun also learned the news that Lou Zhao had blocked the palace gate in advance at the city gate.

In such a matter as a coup d'état, the important thing is to strike preemptively.

Now that the news has been leaked in advance, and Gao Cheng is leading the army south, even if the palace is captured, how much combat power does the forbidden army still have, and can it wait until the army of the king of all walks of life gathers.

The most critical part of Hu Sichun's strategy is to attack and kill Lou Zhao and smoothly transition the power of the forbidden army.

Seeing that Lou Zhao was prepared, Hu Sichun immediately made a decision and led more than 1,000 troops to march to the land of Sanjing, intending to pretend to be garrisoned by the edict of the Son of Heaven, attack and assassinate Shi, take the opportunity to occupy Sanjing, and rely on Nanliang to rescue, so that he could divide one side.

The so-called three jings refer to Jingzhou (Dengzhou, Henan), South Jingzhou (south of Zaoyang, Hubei), and East Jingzhou (Miyang, Henan).

He didn't think about going to Kansai, after a lot of hard work, could it be that he was transferred from Gao Huan's subordinates to He Bayue's command?

'I, Huschun will never be subservient to others. ’

Zheng Quan couldn't enter the city, and was coerced to the south, and he was at a loss for a while: Could it be that the rebellion in the city was put down?

Looking at Hu Sichun's back, Zheng Quanxin said: At least I have one more chance to make meritorious contributions!

At this time, Dugu Xin, a native of Wuchuan, was serving as the governor of Jingzhou City Defense and concurrently serving as the county guard of the two counties.

He also had a close general named Yang Zhong under his command.
