At this time, in the Xuanzheng Courtyard of Taiji Palace, the atmosphere was not tense, and Huo Zheng slowly instructed a subordinate official:

"You send someone to Qingyang to ask what the hell is going on? The music that was sent out before the original phase, why is there no news now? ”

The subordinate officer nodded yes, and then went back to arrange for people to go to Qingyang to question, and the subordinate officer was shocked not long after he went out, and ran back panting and shouted: "Lord Xiangguo, the big thing is not good, the disaster is wrong......

Huo Zheng saw that his subordinate officials were so embarrassed, and couldn't help but reprimand: "The court officials have to have their own proper decency, look at you, what big thing scares you like this?" ”

The subordinate official's face was pale, and he said with a frightened expression: "Lord Xiangguo has been in trouble, there are tens of thousands of rebels surrounding Taiji Palace. ”

Huo Zheng heard this, and his brain was buzzing! At first, I didn't believe it, who dared to kill here?

Seeing that the subordinate official's expression was exaggerated, and it didn't seem to be fake, Huo Zheng asked, "Who is it?" Who is it? Who would dare to rebel? ”

The subordinate officials hesitated and said: "Look at the flag...... It's like the team of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"

Huo Zhengteng stood up and shouted at his subordinates:

"What? You what? The prince rebelled? How is this possible? If you dare to deceive me, come back and I will punish you. ”

When the subordinate official heard this, he said in a trembling voice: "Lord Xiangguo~ The subordinates will never dare to deceive the adults, you can follow the subordinate officials to the city tower to take a look." ”

Huo Zheng's heart trembled, and he hurriedly followed his subordinate officials out of the Xuanzheng Courtyard, and climbed the east gate tower of Taiji Palace in one step and two steps.

I saw that the sun was covered outside the city, the crowd was crowded, the armor was bright, the swords and guns were numerous, and the black pressure looked like there were not as many as 30,000 or 40,000 people, at this time, Lu Liang and the officials of the Xuanzheng Yuan also received the news, and climbed the city tower, and everyone looked at the black pressure outside the city, and they were also pale and panicked

At this time, a scout from the enemy formation came to the city tower and shouted: "Listen to the people above, the prince, as long as you open the city gate and surrender, and support His Royal Highness the prince to ascend the throne, you can avoid death. ”

The scout was about to pull his horse back, and Huo Zheng, the prime minister of the left, stepped forward and shouted: "The messenger walks slowly, I am Huo Zheng, the left prime minister of the imperial court, and I have something to pass on to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

The scout reined in his horses and replied, "Prime Minister, please." ”

Huo Zheng is also anxious now, why did he suddenly rebel and rebel? What's going on?

Huo Zheng turned his head to the subordinate officials who followed behind him, and said, "You go and invite the prince and the prince Cui Xiangguo, only he can persuade the prince to live in the prince." ”

Seeing that the subordinate officials were still standing in place, in a hurry, Huo Zheng even burst into foul language, and roared angrily: "What the hell are you in a daze, give Lao Tzu to hurry up and invite Cui Xiangguo." ”

The subordinate officials woke up like a dream, and rushed to the inner palace with a roll......

Huo Zheng lay on the head of the city and shouted to the scout: "Messenger, please be sure to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, there must be some misunderstanding, we are waiting for Your Majesty's order, this city gate must not be opened, Your Majesty will wake up with two more, and when the time comes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be summoned to pay homage in front of the Emperor, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince retreats, we will definitely strive for leniency for the Prince in front of His Majesty." ”

The scout then took the order and left, and at this time the prince stood on the chariot in the military formation, and smiled contemptuously after listening to the scout's report.

After hearing this, Liu Yu sneered and said, "Leniency? How to deal with it? Leave me waiting for a whole corpse? This traitor is dying and wants to suppress us in the name of His Majesty the Emperor......"

Qin Shao turned his head and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the Beiying army is here to support, as long as it takes two hours, we only have so long to take the Taiji Palace, and we don't have time to interfere with this traitor, as long as we take the Taiji Palace, great things can be done." ”

The prince sneered, drew his sword and pointed in the direction of Taiji Palace, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Sons, attack!" Whoever is the first to climb the city will be rewarded! ”

The army immediately shouted Long live the prince, and a group of soldiers rushed to the outer city of Taiji Palace with various siege equipment like a group of wild beasts out of the cage.

Huo Zheng, the right prime minister, saw that the scout had not come back to pass the word, and the enemy's black pressure had already been pressed, and at this time, the guard captain Du Chen's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly beckoned the generals of the forbidden army, and shouted: "Go and light the beacon tower, and let the soldiers of the North Battalion come to the rescue." ”

The lieutenant general was ordered to leave.

At this time, the right prime minister Cui Yan old man sweated profusely and climbed the city tower, he also knew that His Majesty was not dead, and he woke up in the middle and summoned himself a few times, at this time he heard that the prince was reversed, and he was immediately angry, and ran up to the city to shout down, but before the words came out, he was greeted by countless arrows.

Seeing this, Huo Zheng hurriedly held Cui Yan's head and hid under the battlements, only to barely dodge, and at this time, the enemy army had rushed to the east gate and began to attack the city.

Listening to the shouts of killing outside, Huo Zheng pulled Cui Yan and beckoned everyone to run down the city, Cui Yan was heartbroken at this time, no matter what reason His Royal Highness the Prince rebelled, this prince's position will definitely not be kept.

Cui Yan ran behind Huo Zheng and scolded: "Huo Zheng, you traitor, forced the prince to rebel, can't you be lighter on the prince?" ……”

When Huo Zheng heard this, his heart suddenly became angry, and he turned around and scolded Cui Yan: "Old thing, if you weren't suspicious, you came to the palace again and again to force the palace and test Your Majesty, I would have made this decision?" Besides, it's not my intention to suppress the prince, that's Your Majesty's intention, it's been suppressed for so many years, and you don't want to think about how the prince could rebel because of this? ”

Wei Wei Du Chen suddenly said: "Could it be that the prince misunderstood that His Majesty has been promoted, so he is so desperate?" ”

Everyone looked at each other and felt that Du Chen might have a point.

At this time, Zhao Shu shouted: "Let's go to the inner palace immediately to see if Your Majesty is sober, as long as Your Majesty comes forward, we will definitely be able to stop this rebellion." ”

Cui Yan was very conflicted at this time, and at the same time lamented that His Royal Highness the Prince, who had taught for so many years, would lose his position, but he also vaguely hoped that the prince could succeed in the war, control the situation, and force His Majesty to be the emperor today It is not a good ending, don't you want to live forever? Offering you up, love will live as long as you want.

Everyone had their own thoughts at this critical juncture, in fact, they all understood that the initiator of all these tragedies was caused by the emperor who was still lying unconscious in the inner palace to seek eternal life.

Everyone came to the inner palace emperor's bedroom in a hurry, and saw Zhang Daoling guarding His Majesty's side, now His Majesty's situation is much better, and the smell of blood in the house is much lighter, it is no longer as messy as before, the hall has returned to an orderly state, and the iron chains on His Majesty's body have also been removed.

As soon as Cui Yan entered the door, he saw Zhang Daoling guarding His Majesty's side, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

At this time, Huo Zheng stepped forward and bowed his hand to Zhang Daoling: "National Teacher, how is Your Majesty now?" When will I be able to come to my senses again. ”

Zhang Daoling said: "Lord Xiangguo, Your Majesty still needs an hour to recuperate before he can wake up." ”

Huo Zheng was anxious and said, "National Teacher, do you see if you can cast a spell to make Your Majesty wake up early?" Now that the rebels have reached the door, it is up to His Majesty to stop the rebellion. ”

When Zhang Daoling heard this, he was shocked and said, "I understand, anyway, now Your Majesty's situation has stabilized a lot, I will inject spiritual power into Your Majesty, and I can wake up once in advance half an hour in advance." ”

Huo Zheng heard this: "Okay! Please hurry up and cast the spell, the matter is urgent. ”

At this time, the great patriarch Ahlami wearing a robe walked in outside the door, and Huo Zheng was just about to tell the patriarch about the outside affairs, but Ahlami raised his hand and said:

"Lord Xiangguo, the old body has roughly understood what the situation is, so I will summon the clansmen to come over to guard the Wanshou Palace to protect Your Majesty."

Huo Zheng nodded again and again: "Okay!" Then the safety of His Majesty is entrusted to the Great Patriarch. ”

Ahelami turned his head to Zhang Daoling and said: "Daoling, you are taking care of Your Majesty, if we can't stand it, we will immediately take Your Majesty to the cave where the grass is planted, there are tens of thousands of catties of iron gates, temporarily blocking the rebels and waiting for rescue, there should be no problem." ”

"Yes, master."

Ahlami wore a hood on his head, and he couldn't see his face clearly, so he just nodded lightly and turned away.

Except for Huo Zheng, the rest of the people present were all seeing the patriarch for the first time, although they didn't see his face, but listening to his voice, it seemed to be a young woman, and even Zhang Daoling called him a master, which surprised everyone.

Only then did everyone understand that Zhang Daoling was just a figure on the stage, and there was a mastermind behind it.

After everyone exited the main hall.

The corners of Cui Yan's mouth twitched, and he snorted coldly: "Why is my majesty so obsessed with longevity, it turns out that there is a demon girl behind it......

When everyone heard this, they were silent, now at this pass, there are no demon girls or demon girls, the most important thing is to save their lives, in case the rebels attack, they will have to move their heads.

In less than an hour, a bloodstained lieutenant general ran into the inner palace and reported to Huo Zheng, who was standing on the high platform: "Lord Qiqi Xiangguo, there are too many of them, and there are siege equipment, we can't resist it at all, the east gate and the south gate have been lost, and the prince has already led people to attack it......"

When Huo Zheng heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately ordered: "Immediately order all the lieutenant troops to retreat into the inner palace to guard." ”

When the general heard this, hey! With a sound, he returned to the outer palace to pass the order.

At this time, Ahlami led these hundreds of warriors of the Trimu clan to escort the emperor, and the emperor himself had already woken up, and was sitting in a wooden wheelchair due to his limited mobility.

Huo Zheng ran to the emperor and asked: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that in order to ensure that in case of a period, he should immediately go to the back mountain to avoid the rebel army. ”

Although the emperor had just woken up, he already knew what was happening, and he said with a gloomy face:

"I didn't expect this rebel to be in a hurry now, and he dared to rebel? What Aiqing said was very true, and immediately went to the back mountain for refuge. ”

Huo Zheng got the order, and with a wave of his hand, everyone took the order and left, and the officials of the Xuanzheng Yuan, the warriors of the Sanmu clan, and the only remaining hundreds of lieutenants fled to the cave Zheng where the grass was planted in the back mountain

Cui Yan also instinctively followed the team to the back mountain, but as he walked, his pace slowed down as soon as his mind moved, and he gradually fell behind the team, but fortunately, everyone was busy running for their lives, and they didn't pay attention to how he was a thin old man.

Cui Yan saw that they were busy running for their lives, looked left and right, and saw that there was a side hall on the side, and a dodge went in, and there was actually a group of palace maids in it, and when they saw the old man breaking in, they all screamed in fright, and the old man hurriedly scolded them to shut up, and when the palace maids saw the old man in an official uniform, they knew that it was a big leader, and they all closed their mouths......

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince drove a carriage into the east gate of Taiji Palace, followed by countless troops with helmets and armor, and entered Taiji Palace.

At this time, Qin Shao ran over and reported: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, we have captured a lieutenant prisoner, and he knows where Gongzi Sheng is hiding. ”

The prince laughed cruelly, and said in his heart, Gongzi Sheng was really hiding in this place, and said, "Take Gu over immediately, I will personally meet him for a while." ”

The prince turned his head and ordered the generals again: "Immediately step up the capture of the inner palace and search for Huo Zheng and his gang of traitors for me." ”

Everyone took orders to go, at this time the Taiji Palace has become a purgatory on earth, the flames are rushing, there are wanton robbery and rebellious soldiers everywhere, many people in the outer palace have already run to the inner palace, and there are no casualties, most of the lieutenant troops guarding the outer palace see that the situation is not good, and they all surrender.
