The morning bell rang, the gate of the palace hall carved with golden dragon brilliance opened, and the civil officials slowly entered, and with the shrill singing of the eunuchs, the slightly pale Kolo stepped on the white jade steps and slowly sat down. He didn't even hear what the courtiers were saying, and his ears seemed to linger with the words that the mysterious cloaked man said when he finally left: Don't be smart, or you will know the end!

He secretly paid a bitter smile at the corner of his lips, and at this time, His Highness stood up again, it was Jinchuan, the squire of the military department, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the minister has something to play about exchanging grain for the city." ”

As soon as his words came out, all the officials in the palace were shocked, this exchange of grain for the city had already been agreed a few days ago, so why should it be discussed again?

What is due will always come. The corners of Colog's lips showed a trace of imperceptible bitterness, and he blinked expressionlessly, and waved his hand: "No." ”

Jinchuan said steadily: "His Royal Highness and the ministers are sympathetic to the people's feelings and agree to exchange grain for the city, which is really the virtue of God's good life. However, the falconry division's intention to rebel was already clearly exposed, and the minister thought that it was better to take advantage of their retreat from the city, gain an unstable foothold, and annihilate them in one fell swoop, so as to avoid future troubles. ”

As soon as the words fell, the air in the hall was filled with coldness and dullness, as if frozen. Yes, Jinchuan's sudden speech was really too unexpected, how could it be? He knew that the crown prince and the major family forces in the palace had no intention of starting a war with Linghu at this time? Why would he slap himself?

But then the prince's attitude made everyone feel like a thunderbolt and dumbfounded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think?" Colog's words pierced deep into Ling Huming's heart like a sharp cone. He couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion: how could this be? How could the prince have such an attitude? He bit his lower lip. Try to calm yourself down.

Nangong, whose face also changed slightly slightly, glanced at Ling Huming on the side and glanced at it. There was some sympathy in his eyes, and he already knew that the Linghu family had been sold by the prince who supported him after he said this. If it had been before, he would have fallen into the ground, but at this time, there was no need for this, and the news from the clan specifically pointed out that Ling Hu Jue didn't have to worry about him, and the Falcon Division that had withdrawn from Crow City would not be of any benefit to him, but might allow the prince to take this opportunity. Wipe out the forces that he has placed in the Western Corps. So, he was very smart not to oppose or agree, but just looked at Zhong Lichao who was hanging his head opposite with indifferent eyes.

At this moment, Zhong Lichao's mood was also very complicated, although he didn't think about it as much as Nangong Wang, but he had a little scruples, that is, he was afraid that this was a trap, a bureau set up by the Linghu family and the prince. Wu Hai's death earlier made him remember for a long time, and he knew the group of people in front of him. It's not something that can be dealt with by the realm alone, so. even chose to be silent.

If these giants didn't speak, no one would dare to mention it anymore, and the matter would be over. But today is different, someone stood up again, it was the fake Ke Shaofan, he seemed to have guessed the meaning of the master, and nodded vigorously with the same feeling: "Your Highness, what Lord Jin said is extremely true, if we let other empires know that we are talking about conditions with the rebels, what kind of face will we have, so I implore His Highness to immediately issue an order to exterminate the Falcon rebels." ”

Zhong Lichao's face changed slightly, obviously a little unhappy with Ke Shaofan's self-assertion, now that Crowe City has fallen into the hands of the Empire, the top priority is to quickly control the Western Corps, rather than sending troops hastily. But he didn't want to be happy, but he didn't think much about it, after all, he couldn't wait for the fox to die immediately, and the ministers who belonged to him knew it. He naturally regarded Ke Shaofan's attachment as a flattery to himself.

But the change in his expression fell in Nangong Wang's eyes, but he was exchanged for a deep smile. The ridiculousness was not hidden, and something that surprised him also happened, Chu Jiang, the henchman he sent to potential Ling Huming's side, actually stood up, and at the same time, there were several civil and military ministers who belonged to different forces and were not low-ranked. One by one, they angrily denounced the falconry division, and the appearance of gritting their teeth seemed to make the fox have a hatred for killing their father and taking their wife.

Kolo on the dragon throne looked at the familiar faces, and felt a stream of heat rush straight to the top door, his whole body trembled slightly, his feeling at the moment was too deep, too deep. He thought that there would be changes in the court, but he didn't expect that so many ministers of different forces would stand up, terrible, terrible.

The other ministers in the court were apparently also shocked by this sudden change, and they stood in a daze, glancing at their master out of the corner of their eyes, hoping to get some instructions.

But Ling Hu Ming, Nangong Wang, Murong Ao, and even Zhong Lichao, who has always been inseparable from Ling Hu and the shallowest in the city, are also condensed at this moment. Although the horror in their hearts is no less than that of others, the experience and lessons tell them that there must be another force intervening, and they also vaguely know who this force is.

Zhong Lichao and Nangong Wang, the two long-standing rivals, suddenly glanced at each other secretly, this extremely fast, but already indescribable glance was intriguing, but because it was too fast, no one paid attention, at this moment, the corners of their lips were solemn.

Ling Hu Ming looked up at the top of the hall, silently in deep thought, he was lamenting the twists and turns of his son's path, and he was also thinking about a way to solve the dilemma.

Keluo, who was sitting on the dragon chair, glanced at Ling Hu Ming, he knew that his habit of Uncle Ming, as long as he was silent, was using his astute and transcendent thoughts, and couldn't help but have a trace of imperceptible guilt on his calm face, which was not only for Ling Hu, but also for the Ling Hu family who had always supported him. Seeing that no one in the hall spoke, his heart was crossed, and he was just about to make an order.

Ling Huming walked out slowly, his face was solemn, he bowed down and said: "Your Highness, although the Falcon Division is not rebellious, what it has done is indeed harmful to the national body, and the minister seconded the performance of Lord Fang Caijin to take necessary measures against the Falcon Division." ”

As soon as his words came out, everyone was shocked, every face tensed, no one dared to gasp loudly, but every pair of eyes contained indescribable horror, and some even showed admiration. And most of these admirers are vassals of the Linghu family, and they subconsciously think that their master is going to be ready to lose his pawn and protect the car.

But Nangong Wang, who has been fighting with Linghu for decades, doesn't think much about it. He believed that his old rival must be ready to play what tricks?

But this time he was wrong. Ling Huming didn't think of any good schemes. He only thought of the secret letter he had received yesterday from a secret channel, and although the letter was written by She'er, he knew that the meaning of it came from Jue'er, and he had already figured out the meaning of the letter, that is, if necessary, draw a clear line. So, he made this decision immediately, rather than being controlled by others. It's better to be anti-customer-oriented, and maybe it can make others scruples.

I have to say that he suddenly came with such a hand, which made Keluo very surprised, he stared at Ling Huming with very deep eyes, and said loudly: "Since all the ministers have no objections, then you can pass on the order, let the Western Corps pursue the Falcon against the party, and raise the prestige of our country." ”

All the ministers responded with a bang, and Ling Huming replied with his mouth. But his heart was trembling, and he could only hope that Xiao Er could see the opportunity to act at the moment. I also hope that Jue'er will have a way to deal with it early.

And at this moment, Linghu Xiao is leading tens of thousands of troops to slowly pass through the east gate of Guò Cro City, there is a dead silence on both sides of the street, there is no figure, only a place of dead leaves and debris, as soon as the cold wind blows, it will fly all over the sky, giving people a sense of extreme loneliness and dead silence. Linghu Xiao and Wang Mingchuan, who sent grain into the city yesterday, rode in front of him, looking at the streets and alleys with a sense of ruin, a deep and strange smile spread on his handsome face, and said slowly: "General Wang, this is also the scene when you entered the city yesterday. ”

Seeing him mention yesterday's incident, Wang Mingchuan's square face was completely deformed by a look of anger after being humiliated, but he still tried his best to hide it, and said coldly: "Marshal, this Crowe City is full of people, and such a cold reception of our army must be under the command of the Falcon Division." ”

Although he didn't know what happened yesterday, from the change in Wang Mingchuan's expression, Ling Hu Xiao already knew that the taste was not good, he had no intention of revealing the scars, but smiled indifferently: "I'm just a little curious, these seven million catties of grain are not a small amount, and it is not easy to distribute them to the residents of this city, how did this falcon division complete it so quickly?"

Wang Mingchuan snorted, and said coldly: "Carving insect skills, after yesterday they were supposed to transport grain into the city, they immediately dispersed the grain wagons, it is said that they have long divided the whole city into four districts according to the direction, and each district is divided into twenty points, and the roster is made according to the points, and the grain is transported to each point, and the distribution will be completed in less than two hours." “

Ling Hu Xiao's hand holding the reins trembled slightly, what kind of carving insect skill is this, it is obviously an immortal prescription for governing the country and the country, and he can't help but secretly sigh that his fifth brother is indeed a capable person. He just wanted to speak, but saw a few black shadows thrown out of the roof in the distance, falling ten feet in front of him, with a few "bangs", splashing everywhere, and the smell of urine and drifted with the wind.

Ling Hu Jue pulled the reins, his face became gloomy, and Wang Mingchuan's reaction was even more intense, he suddenly roared, the saber on his waist lit up, pointed to the direction where he threw it, and said sharply: "Come on, arrest those Diao people." It's no wonder that he was angry, yesterday, when he promised the people, these feces and urine and rotten vegetables greeted him a lot, at that time, there was a falcon division, he could only hide his anger in his heart, but today, he would not bear it.

A few guards rushed forward, and at this time, there was a dense flow of people at various street intersections, and the few guards who rushed forward could only stop, and even the formation with the army also caused a small commotion.

There were too many people coming from the three directions, adding up to tens of thousands, and they stopped at a distance of more than ten zhang, and how many pairs of disdainful and angry eyes also shot towards Linghu Xiao on the saddle.

Wang Mingchuan had tens of thousands of troops beside him, so he was naturally not stunned, laughed fiercely, pointed at the tip of the knife, and shouted: "You are waiting for the people, but you want to gather a crowd to rebel?"

Scar, who was already standing at the front of the crowd, suddenly raised his arms and shouted, "Get out of the city, Crowe City belongs to Lord Linghu." ”

The thunderous sound echoed and thrilled, echoing back and forth over the entire city of Crow, and it lasted for a long time. Frightened, Wang Mingchuan hissed under his crotch.

His eyes swept over the passionate people, looking at the eyes that could not be concealed with disdain and anger, Ling Hu Xiao said that it was impossible not to feel it, but as the commander of the Western Corps, he could not be afraid at this moment, and slowly rode forward a few steps, with a calm face. Tablet said: "Ben Shuai takes over Crowe City on behalf of the Empire. Don't make trouble. Otherwise, military law is merciless. ”

The crowd suddenly parted, and as soon as the people got out of the way, several old men who were quite old were helped out of the way, they were all respected people in Crow City, who had lived in Crow City for decades, and they stood up slowly, their eyes lost and dark. The gray-robed old man, who was a little younger and in his early sixties, coughed dryly and said quietly: "Generals, you better go back, you are not welcome in Crow City." ”

Wang Mingchuan has been in the army for decades, and he has received such treatment there, and the people actually prevent the army from entering the city? His eyes swelled in a burst of fine light, and he said fiercely: "Is it that the falcon division has received grain and does not admit it, and instigated you to wait to send you to death?" ”

His voice had just fallen. The angry scolding started again, so high that almost the entire city of Crow was shaking. The old man who had spoken earlier spat the ground. The depths of the old eyes seemed to be spewing flames, and the face with high cheekbones revealed an unconcealed indignation, and scolded angrily: "You, do you think that Lord Linghu is like you and others, to be honest with you, these few months are the most comfortable days for the old man to live in Kro City for decades, Lord Linghu is benevolent and benevolent, and exchanges the city for food, we take this affection, we can't keep Lord Linghu, but we also have to keep this city for him, and keep a stability for our children and grandchildren, you, you go." ”

Linghu Xiao just wanted to say something, Wang Mingchuan, who was a few steps behind, smiled without a smile, slowly and leisurely rode to his side, and said disdainfully: "Since Lord Linghu is so good, why don't you go with you, why do you still stay, I can remember that when you heard that there was still food to receive yesterday, you were also elated." ”

The old man was short of breath and couldn't answer for a while, and the scar next to him had already roared: "Get out of the calf, we are at ease to let Lord Linghu go." If you don't go back, Lao Tzu will go to Lord Linghu after receiving the food, we are all sensible people, why can't we drag Lord Linghu down?"

"You!" Wang Mingchuan was angry, he didn't expect these Diao people to have such mean thoughts, and said angrily: "Okay, good, since you said so, General Ben won't give this grain back." ”

As soon as his words came out, Ling Hu Xiao knew that something was wrong, this was not an obvious way to give people a handle, this group of people just took the opportunity to make trouble. Sure enough, as he expected, the crowd was hoarse and torn screams, with anger, unwillingness, and incomparable passion: "These cowards are scolding us again, folks, drive them out." ”

"Get out. ”

"If you don't give food, you won't be allowed to go into the city, get out. ”

Looking at the slowly approaching flow of people, in the front row, the soldiers on the two wings were stunned for a moment, and quickly rushed forward into several columns, with a loud "bang" sound, and the iron shield had been put on the left wrist at the same time, obliquely protecting the stepping surface, and at the same time the bayonet gun was raised forward.

Although Ling Hu Xiao was familiar with military books, this kind of scene was also the first time he had experienced, and he couldn't help but be a little chaotic, and similarly, those people also made a commotion in front of the murderous formation of the soldiers, some people stopped, and some people still squeezed forward, and the scene was chaotic.

At this moment, the tragic and low horn sound "woo" and "woo" sounded, the horn sound contained threat, contained wildness, and permeated the sky over the entire city of Crow.

Everyone was stunned and did not understand the meaning of the sound of the trumpet. Several horsemen galloped from behind, and the leader of the horses was Bai Fengtang, who was stationed in the camp, while the other few were the supervisors under Wang Mingchuan, the supervising army.

"General Bai, what do you mean by this?" Ling Hu Xiao said to Bai Fengtang, who was already stationed in front of him and had a solemn expression!

Bai Fengtang unexpectedly didn't talk, but one of the supervision envoys on the side took the instructions that had just been summoned by the military department and written on paper to Wang Mingchuan, Wang Mingchuan was slightly stunned after seeing it, and a sneer instantly appeared on the corner of his mouth. After glancing at Ling Hu Xiao with an extremely strange look, he handed over the order. Ling Hu Xiao intuitively felt a trace of ominous from everyone's expressions, and before he could see the order, Bai Fengtang had already circled the front and ordered: "Disperse the crowd, if there is resistance, kill it!"

The soldiers did not know what was happening and hesitated to step forward, while the inspector had already shouted, "General Bai has now been promoted to corps commander." ”

Linghu Xiao was startled, lowered his eyes, and saw these few lines written on the note in his hand: "Appoint Bai Fengtang as the commander of the Imperial Western Corps, and you can annihilate the Falcon against the party." Under the shock, Ling Hu Xiao's hand trembled, the note fell with the wind, and he slowly closed his eyes.

The soldiers were not stupid, and they understood at this moment, -- the strings were tight, and the sound of crisp and sharp footsteps came out suddenly, looking at the murderous and slowly approaching soldiers, the will of those ordinary people had long since been dissolved, and although some were still shouting and insisting, most of them were cowering and retreating. No way, who called the knife in someone's hands!

Looking at the flow of people scattered around, the corners of Bai Fengtang's lips pulled up a sneer, people, what a very strange animal, obviously the same person, but they will show different temperaments and attitudes for the difference in their positions. He no longer had the previous humility at this moment, and the coldness and majesty on his face were worthy of the name of the marshal, so he didn't look back at all, and said in a low voice: "General Linghu, General Wang, the army will enter the city immediately, and in two hours, go out of the city to pursue the Falcon against the party!"
