In the palace of the king of Han.

Xiao Yunhe reclined on the couch with his eyes half-closed, trying to avoid pulling the wound.

Li Sheng, Chu Yan and Li Huaiguang, the three of them had already knelt down in front of the couch. Ma Sui stood beside the three of them in a daze, with a blood-stained cloth belt wrapped around his head. The expression is very lonely and sad.

"My lord, time is running out, so hurry up and give an order!" Li Sheng's words rang loudly, and Lang Lang said, "Sheji is unlucky. The emperor is out of control. The superior is not good, and we should imitate the story of Yi Yin and Huo Guang. Straighten things out and set up a new monarch. The emperor has turned his face and denied people, and ordered soldiers and horses to come to conquest. In this situation, both public and private, Lord Han must immediately make a decision and turn the tide!"

Li Huaiguang shouted loudly: "My lord, you can give the order! Although the last general does not have a single soldier by his side now, he can still kill a bloody road with a single shot! The emperor doesn't recognize you, and you don't need to think about those messy things anymore. In troubled times, there is no need to pay attention to too many rules and truths. Whoever has the strength will climb up. To be kind to a woman to tolerate others is to be cruel to yourself!"

Chu Yan also said loudly: "My lord, the general will listen to you in the end." If you think that the last will be a traitor, just throw out a word, and the last will immediately kill himself on the spot! Otherwise, it will be too late, and it will be over! Daqi, there will be no hope!"

Ma Sui stood there in a daze, listening to the shocking words of his three colleagues, and couldn't help but close his eyes.

Two lines of old tears flowed from his eyes.

He never imagined that things would turn out like this. The contradiction between the emperor and the king of Han is now irreconcilable, and it must be resolved by force...... How did things come to this?!

Xiao Yunhe opened his eyes slightly, glanced at the four of them, and raised his hand slightly: "Get up." ”

Li Sheng and the others glanced at each other and stood up hesitantly.

"Help me up. The four of them stepped forward and carefully helped King Han to stand up from the couch. During this period, he inevitably pulled the newly injured wound again, and Xiao Yunhe's face twitched in pain.

After standing firm, Xiao Yunhe gently pushed away the people around him and walked to a wall alone.

There, a pair of golden armor was erected on a stand, and a sword hung over the wall.

Xiao Yunhe slowly stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the large and small scars on the armor. He also took the sword off the wall and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard.

The sword is like autumn water, and the cold air overflows.

"The name of the sword is inherited, and the emperor gave it. Xiao Yunhe stroked the body of the sword and muttered to himself, "This armor was also given by the prince back then. ”

Li Sheng and the others stood quietly behind him, without saying a word.

"They gave me swords and armor to kill and protect themselves. A wry smile appeared on Xiao Yunhe's pale face, "Who would have thought that I would use such armor and swords to confront them today." ”

The four were silent. They had never seen such a low and depressed Han king.

"You ...... Help me put on my armor!" Xiao Yunhe raised his sword and returned it to its sheath. Rattle.

The four of them hesitated .......

"Do it!" Xiao Yunhe's voice raised and he shouted loudly, and then couldn't help coughing again and again. There was a sharp pain in the wound, and he had to hold on to the wall.

Li Sheng and the others hurriedly stepped forward to treat his wounds, and then put on the golden armor and the crimson robe with great care.

Xiao Yunhe picked up the helmet with both hands and slowly put it on his head.

It was at this very moment. The scenes of Xuanwu Gate back then all appeared in front of me.

Heart, there was a cramping.

His body shook and he nearly fell. Li Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "My lord...... It doesn't have to be in person. There are the last generals and others here, and all of them are taken care of. ”

Xiao Yunhe shook his head. Push Li Sheng away. He carefully hung the sword on his waist, took a deep breath, and said, "Some things, since they cannot be avoided, should be faced calmly. I'm doing things myself. After all, you have to do it yourself, and you won't just have to show it up. ”

At this moment, the gate of Suzaku, which had just been closed, suddenly opened. More than 10,000 soldiers and horses roared in the sea. Straight towards the Han Palace.

In the bedroom of the Han Palace, this voice was heard very clearly.

"It's coming!" Li Sheng and the others' hearts instantly tensed.

The great general Duan Zuo rushed to the outside of the bedroom of the King of Han and said loudly: "Report to the King of Han!" The emperor sent Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian to lead more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to kill the Han King's mansion -- they shouted to suppress the Han King and Ma Sui rebel against the party, and those who resist will be killed!"

"Traitor, traitor Ma Sui......" Ma Sui muttered a few words in amazement, closed his eyes helplessly, and suddenly lost his mind.

"My lord, give the order!" Li Sheng and the others knelt down again.

The armor on Xiao Yunhe's body. Never felt so heavy as it is now. He shifted his steps, slowly approached the door, and pushed it open.

Duan Zuo, Wu Zhongru and dozens of other people all stepped back and fell to their knees.

Xiao Yunhe held on to the door frame. He said with difficulty: "Get up......

Everyone stood up and looked at Han in unison, a man who was obviously very weak. The look on his face made people feel extremely resolute and calm. Such a person never seems to be knocked down, never defeated. "Ladies and gentle......men," Xiao Yunhe said in a low voice, "Everyone must know what happened today, and I don't need to say anything more." ”

Outside the house, shouts of killing have risen. The three thousand iron armor and the encirclement and suppression army sent by the emperor have been fighting together. Duan Zuo took several guards around him and quickly ran out of the Han Palace, going to participate in the battle.

"I don't want to explain, I don't want to say anything more. Xiao Yunhe was still holding on to the door frame, his eyes looked around at everyone, and he said calmly, "A qiē starts because of me, and it will end because of me." Between the emperor and me, it is no longer a simple misunderstanding, and the word can be said clearly. ”

"He wants my life...... I, on the other hand, have always had illusions about him, hoping that our father, son and brother will not end up in this way. ”

"As it turned out, I was wrong, very wrong. ”

"I overestimated the role of family affection, and overestimated the emperor's benevolence and righteousness. ”

"Until now. I've run out of options. Great Qi can't die like this. ”

"I-Li Mo!" Xiao Yunhe shouted loudly, "Swear by the blood of Emperor Taizong flowing in your body!"

"We must revive Daqi and restore the prosperous world!"

Everyone was shocked in their hearts: Li Mo!

That was the name of Xiao Yunhe, the king of Han! When the king of Han succeeded to the current emperor and was named a general, he was renamed Xiao Yunhe by the emperor. He now says that he is Li Mo...... The meaning is quite clear! He no longer recognizes the emperor's father! He wants to let go of his hands and feet and do what he wants to do and should do!

Everyone was so excited, they couldn't help themselves, but they didn't know what to say.

The shouts of killing outside the palace gate are getting louder and louder. In the distance, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves, as if thousands of troops were sweeping in.

Ma Sui suddenly muttered stupidly, "It's the old man...... The main force of the Shence army has entered the national capital. ”

Xiao Yunhe's hand left the door frame, and he stood straight in front of the door like a gun, his eyebrows were deeply locked, and his expression was Congolese.

"Ma Sui......" Xiao Yunhe turned his head and spoke to Ma Sui.

Ma Sui was stunned, turned around and walked in front of Xiao Yunhe, and knelt down on one knee: "Sinner Ma Sui, listen to Lord Han's reprimand!"

"Let your people ...... Quell the current riots in the Han Palace. Remember, try to kill as little as possible. They are all soldiers and compatriots of our Daqi. Also, please lend me a thousand iron armor to use. Xiao Yunhe's voice was very soft, not like a military order, but like talking to a friend.

Ma Sui sighed angrily, shook his head again and again, and said, "Sinner...... I never thought it would turn out like this. At this point, the criminal has no choice and no way out. The 100,000 troops under the criminal ministers were all handed over to the King of Han - Lord Han Wang, just give the order!" With that, he took out the military order and seal letter and handed them to Xiao Yunhe.

Li Sheng and the others also knelt in front of him at this time, and said in unison: "Lord Hanwang, please give an order!"

Xiao Yunhe's hands trembled and trembled a little, and he slowly stepped forward to pick up the token and the seal, and took a long breath.

"The decree of the king: Ma Sui's Shence army immediately drove into the national capital, guarded the nine gates of the national capital, and imposed martial law on the streets of the national capital. Li Huaiguang led 20,000 horses from the left battalion to quell the chaos in the Han Palace, and not a single person was allowed to be killed indiscriminately; Chu Yan led 20,000 horses from the right battalion to take over the defense of the nine gates of the national capital; Ma Sui and Duan Zuo and other generals led 20,000 men and horses from the second battalion in the front and rear to take charge of public security in the city. If anyone takes advantage of the chaos to rob, they will be killed!"

There is no need to guess, no more hesitation and doubt. King Han has already made a very resolute decision.

"Yes!" the three generals agreed loudly and stepped forward to take the talisman distributed by the King of Han.

"Good ......," Xiao Yunhe said to Li Sheng, "You and this king, lead the rest of the horses...... Counterattack the Palace!"

"Yes......" Li Sheng frowned and solemnly promised.

"Remember...... We are not Zhu. Xiao Yunhe told the four generals, "Pass the strict order." No one is allowed to harass or mutilate the people or kill innocent people. Otherwise, the military order will severely punish and cut off the soldiers! The soldiers and horses sent by the emperor will certainly be vulnerable without the command of a general. Scatter them, and that's it, and there's no need to hunt them down and beat them hard. ”

Xiao Yunhe paused, and finally said: "There is another one, which is the most important - no one is allowed to harm the emperor and the crown prince." Whoever harmed either of them, the king swore to kill him with his own hands. If there is any difference between the emperor and the crown prince, this king will never live alone, and will die with his life. ”

"Yes!" the four generalissimos agreed in unison.

Xiao Yunhe took a heavy breath and raised his hand: "Go!"

Ma Sui, Chu Yan, and Li Huaiguang ran separately.

Xiao Yunhe looked at Wu Zhongru and the others, and said, "Father-in-law, you and the others will rest in the Han Wang's mansion, don't come outside." No matter what kind of serious things happen, don't come out. "Hmm...... Good. Wu Zhongru wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Lord Hanwang...... You—You have to take care!"

Guo and Guo Nuan had been silent, and at this time, they each shook their heads and sighed for a while, and said, "Lord Han, I have seen these things happen with our own eyes. The Guo family has been loyal to Qi for generations, and they should not have had such a mentality...... However, at the moment, we also support the adult's example of Yi Yin and Huo Guang. Clear the portal for Daqi. Adults should rest assured and do it boldly! We, the Guo family, fully support the adults' actions!"

"Thank you two...... Xiao Yunhe solemnly thanked the two, and still said to the eleven iron-blooded guards of the Han Wangfu beside him: "Lead the horse!"

Li Sheng was startled, and hurriedly stopped: "Your Excellency was seriously injured just now, how can you ride a horse to kill?" or ...... Let the last general do it for the time being. After a qiē stable dìng, the adult will come forward to preside over the overall situation. ”

"Nope. Xiao Yunhe shook his head resolutely, "I said it...... It's my own business. I have to face and bear the consequences myself. Needless to say, lead the horse!"

The green horse was brought in. It seemed to know that this was an unusual moment, and it kept holding its hooves high, looking eager to try.

With Li Sheng's help, Xiao Yunhe climbed onto the horse with difficulty. After a heaviest breath. He raised his horsewhip and said to Li Sheng and the eleven iron guards: "Let's go, get out of the Han Palace!" The eunuchs Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian sent more than 10,000 imperial forest troops to kill them. Originally, the three thousand iron armor stationed in front of the Han Palace's mansion were still a little difficult to resist, but Ma Sui's main army was nearly 100,000 people. At this time, all the places from the nine gates of the national capital drove into the city. Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian were not people who knew how to use soldiers to fight at all, where had they ever seen such a battle? They were so frightened that they screamed. He ran away first.

The more than 10,000 Imperial City Imperial Forest Army who came with them were already demoralized and had no fighting spirit, and they and Ma Sui's Shence Army were originally people all the way, so they all abandoned their weapons and surrendered at this time.

Ma Sui issued a strict order not to torture or kill any soldier who surrendered.

The battle in front of the Han Palace, when Xiao Yunhe walked to the gate, had all been declared over. According to the arrangement of the Han Dynasty, Ma Sui distributed the 100,000 army into four units. Listen to the reprimands of King Han, Li Huaiguang and Chu Yan respectively. He himself took a group of soldiers and horses to defend the nine gates of the national capital. Li Huaiguang and Chu Yan also took immediate action and began to maintain law and order in the city and collect and surrender soldiers.

There were nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses left, and they stopped in front of the Han King's mansion to listen to the Han King's personal reprimand.

On Suzaku Street, which is more than 150 zhang wide, there is no longer a single pedestrian or commoner. Scattered here and there were broken wagons and goods. As well as blood and corpses.

The 20,000 soldiers all quietly looked at the Han King on the white horse.

Li Sheng glanced around at these soldiers. He said to Xiao Yunhe: "Lord Han, the army sent by the emperor has been dispersed. Dou Wenchang and the others, with a few remnants, have already returned to the palace and guarded the Suzaku Gate. What to do next, please give an order from Lord Han. ”

"Hmm......" Xiao Yunhe nodded in response, the injury on his chest was still relatively severe, it was very painful, and he didn't have much energy. He took a strong breath and said loudly, "Soldiers, listen to my orders--the army is divided into three teams. The first team, led by Li Sheng, attacked the Suzaku Gate head-on. The second team was led by the king himself to attack the Qinglong Gate, and the third team was led by eleven guards from the king's palace to attack the White Tiger Gate. Our principle is that those who surrender should not die, that we should treat our captives well, and that we should not kill a single person indiscriminately. Especially the emperor and the crown prince and their families, no one can harm them. Otherwise, they will be punished for the crime of treason and murder of the monarch! Do you understand?"

"Understood!" shouted the soldiers in unison. The well-trained Divine Command Army instantly changed formations and assembled into three teams.

Li Sheng got on the horse, looked at King Han suspiciously, and said in a low voice: "My lord, there are still ...... Where's the Xuanwu Gate?"

"Empty ......" Xiao Yunhe remained silent and gently threw out two words. Then he ignored Li Sheng, drew his sword and waved his finger forward-"Go!"

Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian at the head of the Vermilion Bird Gate heard a huge shouting of killing coming towards them, and they were almost so frightened that they peed their pants, and they hurriedly ran towards the city, just fleeing for their lives.

Li Sheng led a group of soldiers and horses to attack the Vermilion Bird Gate head-on, but the two words of King Han just now still echoed in his mind: "Empty!"

King Han, this is to open the net......

Li Sheng felt in his heart that it was extremely complicated. From the shape of shì, besieging the imperial city from all sides, with the current strength of the Han king, it is completely possible to wipe out the emperor and the crown prince and their cadres. But the king of Han ...... However, the decision was made to leave the Xuanwu Gate empty and not attacked. Only now do I understand why King Han was seriously injured. He still insisted on personally presiding over the major events of the return attack on the palace.

Originally...... To this day, he still has a trace of benevolence, and he doesn't want to kill the emperor completely!

Xiao Yunhe was riding on a horse, and every time the green horse galloped, his wound ached. However, the pain of the flesh and skin was far less intense than the sting in the heart.

Be born again as a human being. In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed. From the very beginning, he was determined to help this critical place. And to do this, sooner or later there will be a clash with the emperor.

Although he did not have any affection for this incompetent offspring...... However, the blood of the Xuanwu Sect in the previous life is still in front of him.

No matter how ruthless Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng were at the beginning, they disregarded family affection. No matter what later generations say about him Xiao Yunhe...... Only Xiao Yunhe knew in his heart that the Xuanwumen incident was a pain in his heart that could never be erased.

The reincarnation of the sea, isn't it that this time, do you have to come to the Xuanwu Gate again, and once again slash your own relatives?!

Old man, Li Chen. Your ability is not as good as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Now that the big picture has been decided, I am willing to spare your life. It's also considered ...... Repay you for all the kindness you have shown to me as a shell.

Benevolence and righteousness are exhausted, and this can only be done. If it weren't for the Xuanwumen heart knot. How did you survive to this day?......

The rolling iron hooves shattered the quiet dream of the century-old capital. Millions of people were so frightened that they hid in their homes and did not dare to go out. When Xiao Yunhe led people to the Qinglongmen, the guards of the imperial city here had already opened the gate and all knelt down to welcome the King of Han into the palace.

When I entered the city, I saw officials, eunuchs and palace maids, kneeling on the ground densely. They shouted together in a wailing voice: "King Han spares his life!"

Xiao Yunhe told his sergeants not to hurt any of them, and said to those who knelt on the ground: "Get up." I didn't come to kill living beings. I'm here to clean up the portal for Daqi. You are innocent people, and there is no need to worry about your life. From now on, you will all go back to your original duties and do not have to worry about anything. In the imperial city, a qiēyi order remains the same. ”

"Thank you, King Han!" the people wept with gratitude. He knelt down and prostrated his head.

"Who will sue me, where is the emperor?" Xiao Yunhe said calmly. "Ben Wang...... Wanted to see him. But rest assured, this king will not harm him. ”

Everyone hesitated for a while, and one of the eunuchs climbed forward a few steps forward and said in surprise: "The villain used to be a close eunuch in front of the emperor...... About half an hour ago, the emperor and the crown prince, with the concubine's family, under the protection of five or six hundred imperial forest soldiers of the imperial city, went to the Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace. ”

Xiao Yunhe's brows furrowed slightly: I gave up the Longque Imperial City again, and fled for my life alone......

"Well, the king knows. Xiao Yunhe let the kneeling people disperse, and then ordered the soldiers under him, "The imperial city is strictly sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will." Protect the property and materials in the city, and if you dare to trespass, you will be killed!"

At this time, Li Sheng and the iron guards of the Han Palace's Mansion also killed from the Vermilion Bird Gate and the White Tiger Gate respectively.

Three groups of people met in the West Inner Garden, and they were already directly facing the Daming Palace.

Li Sheng said: "My lord, the last general has just sent someone to search the East Palace, and no prince's family has been found. In the East Palace, there are only some palace maids and eunuchs left, there is no armor, and the treasury is almost empty. It seems that the crown prince has fled with his family. ”

"I know. Xiao Yunhe said indifferently, "The emperor and the crown prince have fled from the Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace with some troops and their families. ”

Li Sheng was silent.

"Let's go and clean up the Daming Palace. Remember, try not to kill. Xiao Yunhe ordered Li Sheng in a light tone, "Everyone, you must not step out of the Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace, and you are not allowed to chase the emperor." Violators - beheaded!"

"Yes!" Li Sheng waved his gun, rushed out of the West Inner Garden with all the soldiers and horses, and began to assault the Daming Palace.

By Xiao Yunhedi's side, only the eleven iron guards of the Han Wangfu were left.

He turned his horse's head and looked back.

To the south of the West Inner Garden is the Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace. That is, the Xuanwu Gate that made Emperor Taizong successful.

Xiao Yunhe slowly rode his horse forward and walked under the palace wall of Xuanwu Gate.

The imperial city is very well maintained. The bricks of the city are still strong and gorgeous, and the walls are so tall and majestic that there seems to be no trace of time. In the empty West Inner Garden, there were only more than a dozen of them.

But Xiao Yunhe seemed to see that the thrilling upheaval back then was being staged in front of him. Iron horses galloping back and forth, swords and spears fluttering in the air, and arrows flying. And, screams, and blood.

After a hundred years, the blood of the Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace seems to have dried up or been wiped away. But the smell of blood hidden beneath its gorgeous exterior still seems to be able to be smelled clearly. More than 100 years later, the Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace has become a watershed between life and death.

If the emperor and others wanted to survive, the only way to escape was before Li Sheng's army swept through the Daming Palace.

Xiao Yunhe raised the corners of his mouth lightly, revealing a wry smile: "Xuanwu Sect...... "Two lives, two mutinies. The last time was an emergency, and the number of people who participated in the Xuanwumen change was not too many. However, the battle was very tragic and the ending was quite tragic. This time, 100,000 soldiers and horses were fully engaged in battle. Now Xiao Yunhe already has an absolute advantage in his hands - but he has not rushed to kill them all. Although the process is grander and more amazing than the Xuanwumen Change, the ending will definitely not be as tragic.

"I never thought of taking your lives...... I just want what I deserve, and that's enough. Xiao Yunhe lightly touched the wall tiles and muttered to himself, "Why, you people always want to force me to do something that I am not willing to do......? We're not going to be better off each other......"

The soldiers and horses led by Li Sheng swept through the Daming Palace like angry waves.

In front of the Xuanwu Gate, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the city, stretching Xiao Yunhe's figure very long......

Alone at sunset. The trees in the forbidden garden of the imperial city in the north of Daming Palace are like wearing a layer of blood-colored makeup, dazzling and dazzling. A wind arose, rolling up a light cloud of sand and dust, blowing the almost frozen air apart.

The old man gasped, and Chu Yan trembled as he looked at the large number of soldiers who were slowly approaching in front of him.

There were about three or four thousand men, all armed with spears and knives, riding horses in a large fan shape, and approaching step by step.

"Father, father, it's Ma Sui's divine army!" Li Yu's voice changed his tone a little. Some of the emperors and concubines of the crown prince around him were even more frightened and cried and made a mess.

"Don't cry, don't mess around!" the old man yelled hysterically, but his own voice was full of horror and panic. The only four or five hundred Imperial City Imperial Forest Iron Armor guarding him was already frightened from the bottom of his heart, and he had no fighting spirit.

The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller. The old man could almost see the lines of the armor on the opposing cavalry.

The atmosphere became tense, and the air was filled with the smell of solemnity.

At this moment, the group of horsemen poured out of the middle. Under the word "horse", an old general with a white beard and hair stepped forward with a horse.

"Ma Sui, you traitor!" the old man was furious, and couldn't help but point at Ma Sui and scold.

Ma Sui frowned and looked sad, turned over and dismounted with a long sigh, and fell to the ground.

"Sinner...... Ma Sui, on the orders of the King of Han, guarded the outside of the national capital. I have been waiting for His Majesty the Emperor for a long time!" Ma Sui was still as humble and humble as before.

"Xiao Yunhe! Xiao Yunhe!" the old man shouted as if he had lost his mind, "You still refuse to let me go after all!"

When the soldiers who protected the old man saw the emperor like this, they all felt that the general trend had gone, and they had lost all their fighting spirit. Some even threw knives and guns and ran away.

A cold glint flashed in the corner of Ma Sui's eyes, who fell to the ground, and he angrily reprimanded: "Abandon the Lord at a critical moment and leave for the sake of injustice - shooting with arrows!"

The bows and arrows in the hands of the ironclad cavalry suddenly flew like locusts in the sky, shooting at the fleeing soldiers.

There was a scream. Fell a piece. The rest screamed in fear and did not dare to flee again.

Li Yu was already so frightened that Chu Yan's body trembled, and he was almost about to fly out of the sky. But after all, he had a close relationship with Ma Sui, so he took a few steps forward and said, "Ma Dashuai, neither my father nor I have treated you badly. Although there was a little unpleasantness, my father also thought that you were his own person, thinking that you would not mind. We...... Between us. It's more just because of a misunderstanding! Today, my father and I are at the end of our rope...... Ma Dashuai is known for his loyalty, can he bear to capture my father and son and hand them over to Xiao Yunhe for credit?"

Ma Sui still knelt on the ground, sighed sadly, and said eloquently: "Lord Prince...... The old minister never thought of rebelling against the emperor. Rebelling against the Prince. Now, the only thing the old minister can do is to let the emperor and the crown prince flee -- those who flee far away will never come back again! The old minister is willing to die in exchange for the life of the emperor and the crown prince -- without further ado. Let's go!"

The lieutenant general behind him was shocked: "Dashuai, no!"

Ma Sui stood up suddenly: "Don't be wordy, this handsome man has made up his mind." Make your debut quickly. Make way for His Majesty the Emperor and his entourage - those who violate the order will be beheaded immediately!"

The lieutenants and sergeants were silent and made a way.

The old man looked at Ma Sui in amazement, and suddenly felt heartfelt again, and couldn't help crying loudly: "Ma Sui...... I'm confused, I'm incompetent, I'm sorry for you and this great Qi!!"

"Your Majesty ......" Ma Sui knelt down again, choking up with tears, "This qiē is all providence." The King of Han is destined to become the lord of the Great Qi, and this is a matter that no one can change. The old minister has been loyal to His Majesty all his life, but he didn't expect that when he was about to die, he would become a traitor...... Your Majesty, you should leave quickly! This is the last time the old minister will serve you!"

"Ma Sui......" The old man couldn't cry. was dragged away by Li Yu and the guards around him.

"Dou Wenchang, Wang Xiqian, you stay!" Ma Sui suddenly shouted angrily.

The two eunuchs were hiding beside the emperor and wanted to sneak away quietly. At this time, he was so frightened that his soul flew out of the sky and knelt down: "Ma Dashuai spare his life - Your Majesty, save me!"

The old man was also stunned and said, "Ma Sui...... These two are just eunuchs who serve me, and you have even let me go, why do you refuse to let go of these two insignificant people?"

Ma Sui was already furious, and stepped forward to grab Dou Wenchang's shirt and lifted him up: "Dou Wenchang, you dog thief, the old man heard about the upheaval and sought death in prison to see His Majesty, why did you hide it and not report it?"

"I—I didn't!" Dou Wenchang quibbled.

"I still don't admit it yet!" Ma Sui was furious, slapped him with a big slap, and scolded as he snorted, "If it weren't for you, the dog thief, who deceived the saint and came up with a bad idea, how could the King of Han be forced to rebel? Even at the last moment, if it weren't for you, the villain, would have saved the situation.

Dou Wenchang was beaten and screamed, vomiting blood all over his mouth. The old man suddenly came back to his senses at this time, looked up to the sky and sighed, "How can this be...... How could this be!!"

Li Yu was also full of disappointment and sadness, dragging his father away quickly.

Ma Sui slapped him for a while but still couldn't get rid of his hatred, pulled out a big knife, cut off the heads of Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian, and ordered the sergeant to chop the corpses of the two into meat sauce.

Seeing the figure of the emperor and his party disappear at the corner of the foothills of Zhongnan Mountain in front of him, Ma Sui let out a long sigh and said to himself: "It's over." It's a foregone conclusion...... Go back and ask the King of Han for guilt!"

In the Daming Palace.

Li Sheng supported Xiao Yunhe and walked slowly on the dragon tail road of Hanyuan Palace. Step by step, he walked towards the Jinluan Palace, which was the supreme imperial power.

The ironclad guards of the Divine Commander stood neatly and majestically on both sides of Longwei Road, majestic. The dragon tail road ladder stone carved from white marble, Xiao Yunhe didn't know how much he had walked in his previous life. Which time is not a light step.

It's never been as hard as it is now.

After walking more than 500 steps of Longwei Road, the two finally came to the stone square flat in front of Hanyuan Palace. Xiangluan Pavilion on the left, Qifeng Pavilion on the right. It was the meeting room where the emperor received the ministers of the cabinet and the civil and military officials. Facing south, the houses of the East and West Courts are extremely majestic and gorgeous. It was the place where the most important civil and military officials of Daqi temporarily gathered and rested before the dynasty. A little further afield, there is the bell tower and the drum tower. Whenever the sound of the bell and drum tower sounds, it marks that there is another heavy dà thing in Daqi.

"Your Excellency...... When you're tired, go into the Hanyuan Hall to rest for a while, right?" Li Sheng said softly.

"Nope. Xiao Yunhedi looked straight ahead and said indifferently, "Except for the emperor." No one is allowed to enter the main hall of Hanyuan Palace, and no one is allowed to approach the Jinluan Treasure Hall without authorization. Those who violate the order shall be punished as the crime of treason. I will order that the Hanyuan Palace, as well as the palace, treasury and harem courtyard, be immediately closed. No one is allowed to trespass. ”

"Yes......" Li Sheng didn't dare to say more, and solemnly surrendered. Then the military order was quickly handed down.

Xiao Yunhe stretched out his hand to hold on to the white marble railing, looking at the Daming Palace he was familiar with.

For more than 100 years, most of the new palaces have been built in the Daming Palace, and many ruins are no longer searchable. This magnificent and vast palace has witnessed the changes of the sea in Daqi for more than 100 years.

Xiao Yunhe's mind. Countless memories and emotions came up together, and I couldn't help but fall into a trance.

"Adult ......"

"Well, good thing. Xiao Yunhe came back to his senses. "Say whatever you want. ”

"There will be something unclear in the end. Li Sheng said softly, "The lord is kind and kind, and let the emperor and the prince out of the palace...... However, they may not be grateful for the kindness of adults. As long as the emperor and the crown prince are in one day, they will always be the greatest disaster. Perhaps, there will be another civil war at any time. ”

"You're right. Xiao Yunhedi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said indifferently, "This matter." It also made me very conflicted and thought about it for a long time. I came to the conclusion that I could not be disadvantageous to the emperor for public or private purposes. ”

Li Sheng bowed his hand suspiciously: "The last general is dull, please make it clear?"

Xiao Yunhe pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly bitterly and said, "Good weapon." In fact, you should have thought clearly, so why should I say more? Ben Sheng said carefully: "The last general...... It's a few that come to mind. But. Still confused. If the adults don't want to talk about it, then the general won't ask anymore. ”

"Actually, it's nothing. Xiao Yunhe smiled slightly and said, "No matter how unbearable the emperor is, he is the emperor recognized by the world after all." No matter how tenable our reasons may be, we are courtiers after all. It is against the way of a subordinate to do such a thing now. I don't need to explain anything about this, do I?"

"It's the ground. However, this is also forced by the current situation. Li Sheng said, "If the King of Han keeps fighting back, then ...... The king of Han and the rest of us will surely die. When the time comes, Xichuan will be chaotic, Daqi's border defense will be chaotic, and the whole world will also be chaotic. Great Qi will soon go to decay and perdition. ”

"Those who sit and talk and the people who don't know what to do, don't care about that. Xiao Yunhe smiled bitterly and said, "So, no matter what, we can't hurt the emperor." You can neither kill nor capture. I can only open the net and let him escape. In this way, at least there will not be a single charge of killing the monarch and treason. It's important, you know?"

Li Sheng frowned and pondered for a while, then nodded slowly: "Understood...... Is the Lord taking a more long-term view, for the sake of long-term peace and stability in the Great Qi Land?" In fact, there was another sentence in his heart, which he didn't dare to say because he was too jealous: If the King of Han wants to ascend the throne smoothly and replace the current emperor, he must also use the emperor's help or rather, to use him!

"Yes......" Xiao Yunhe nodded slowly. From Li Sheng's words, he has already understood, and Li Sheng must have understood the truth. This kind of thing can be tacitly stated, and there is no need to break it. He continued: "The emperor gave up the imperial city and didn't want to flee for his life alone, just like when he met Zhu back then. This is his initiative to give up Daqi and the capital, and he can't complain about others. Everyone saw that although the king took the palace, he did not kill a person or take anything indiscriminately. The emperor was deceived by traitors, regardless of the stability of the society, and the killers wanted to kill loyal ministers and meritorious heroes. The emperor himself was weak and wanted to flee, and he couldn't complain about us. This is also the reason why I want to open the net and give up the Xuanwu Gate. My purpose is to show that I do not mean to kill the Emperor...... Instead, I want to give Li Tang's country a big purge. Wash away the cancer that should not be stored in zài, and return it to a bright future. As for the emperor...... He was willing to give up a qiē and finally ended up betraying his relatives and leaving his relatives, and he couldn't complain about others. ”

Li Sheng nodded and remained silent. I secretly sighed in my heart: King Han, what a powerful emperor's mental skill! As an old man of the emperor, where is his opponent......

Xiao Yunhe looked into the distance and said to himself: "As for private...... To be honest, my disappointment and hatred for the emperor have been more than family affection. But, no matter what, he is my family after all. I don't want to have another tragic situation in the Imperial City where my relatives are killing each other. Good weapon, Emperor Taizong went through the battle of Xuanwumen and successfully ascended the throne. But who can know how much pain the Xuanwumen incident has brought to him in his life? You will only talk about the matter itself in your hearts. But I can understand that Emperor Taizong was in great pain at that time. No matter how great an emperor he later became, and no matter what later generations said about this matter, Xuanwumen was always a lingering shadow and severe pain in his heart. At that time, he was forced to be ruthless when he had no choice. But now, I am sure that I will use non-bloodshed means to solve the problem between me and the emperor. So, I chose to let them go. After he calmed down and saw clearly, I came back to him. When the time comes, I will use the most appropriate way to deal with this qiē matter. ”

"Your Excellency is wise!" Li Sheng let out a long breath, but then said, "But...... The emperor is gone, and there is no news, how can he find it?"

Xiao Yunhe smiled: "Don't worry, he won't be able to go far." He is not as strong and ambitious as we think, and the people around him are not as loyal as you think will always be with him. In less than five days, the Emperor will appear before our eyes again. ”
