Chapter 324: Once Defeated
Facing Li Zongxun's angry gaze, Tang Shaogong's face was calm, his brows did not frown, and he arched his hand:
"There is only one possibility, the prime minister's information is wrong."
Li Zongxun frowned, "What did you say?" ”
Tang Shaogong said: "I think Pei Zhen has already gotten the news from our side, and he is not in the General's Mansion at all." As for the soldiers who hit the Forbidden Garden, according to what the servants saw, it is impossible for Pei Zhen's men to have so many people in the city, so they may be feints to attack ......"
Li Zongxun stared at his eyes, "According to what Shaogong said, what should I do now?" ”
Tang Shaogong said: "Retreat is advance." It is better for the prime minister to escape from the forbidden garden with the prince and the queen mother, establish the prince of Yuanshuo as the new monarch, and then declare that the king of Yonghuai in the world rebelled and forced the palace. When the time comes, the raw rice will be cooked and the rice will be cooked, and Pei Zhen will only be a thief when he sits in Zhongjing......"
"Whew!" Li Zongxun's old face was solemn, and he looked at Tang Shaogong coldly and said: "At that time, the person who cooked raw rice was Pei Zhen. The one who sat on the throne of Jinluan was Yuan Shangyi, and the defector was the old man and me! ”
Tang Shaogong was slightly surprised, "Why did the prime minister say this?" ”
Without waiting for Li Zongxun to speak, Li Sangruo raised his eyebrows, turned his head and snorted lightly.
"Uncle Shaogong's abacus, the mourning family really can't see through it. The person who said that Pei Zhen was the remnant of the Xie family was you. The person who came forward to give evidence is also you. In other words, it was Uncle Shaogong who forced Pei Gong to rebel step by step. Now that Pei Zhen has called, let us not resist, and the people who abandon the city and flee are even more ...... you."
She looked at Li Zongxun lazily.
"Father, can you understand Uncle Shaogong's plan?"
Tang Shaogong's brows tightened, he heard that Li Sangruo was taking the opportunity to provoke in order to repay the hatred of him in his heart, smiled lightly, bowed his head and bowed his hand.
"When servants do things, they see if they are beneficial to the prime minister. With a clear conscience, please be clear. ”
Li Zongxun looked at him without saying a word, his eyes looking gloomy and ruthless under the night light.
After a long time, he said in a low voice: "Shaogong go to the second hall to rest for a while." I have my own opinions on the matter of Zhongjing. ”
Li Zongxun looked at him deeply, brushed his sleeves and went out, called his attendant Li Shen, and commanded in a deep voice.
"Pass the order, be sure to guard the gate of the Forbidden Garden, and don't let Pei Jun break into ......"
There was a loud bang, as if there were thousands of troops.
Li Shen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, bowed his promise, hesitated again, and looked back.
"Lord, Pei Yan is menacing, and the Beiyong army is the best at attacking cities and fighting tough battles...... The prime minister still has to plan ahead. ”
Li Zongxun sneered, his eyes narrowed gloomily, "I'd rather be a broken jade than a complete tile, Pei Zhen wants to support Yuan Shangyi to sit on the dragon chair?" Don't. ”
Seeing that Li Shen's eyes were full of worry, he said in a deep voice:
"If necessary, why not if the fish die and the net is broken, and the whole city is destroyed?"
"Prime Minister!" Li Shen was shocked, and looked at him with fearful eyes, "Think twice! ”
Li Zongxun looked cold, "There is no turning back." ”
-
If you feel that there is no way out, why not Li Zongxun?
In the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, the Beiyong army quickly assembled on the school field when they got the news.
They were a well-trained army, and the soldiers had just been pulled off the battlefield, accustomed to life and death and blood, but had never seen such dirty methods.
They fought desperately with the Qi army outside, and the officials and lords of the court ate and drank and had fun, and now they wiped out their credit with a "rebel army". There is no escape, there is no retreat. The new monarch will definitely not let them go, so why not fight a bloody way for yourself and break out of the world?
Helian Qian stood on the platform and looked at everyone.
"Brothers, tonight's events are in an uproar, and I don't say anything about Helian Qian, you must have heard a lot of it. Yes, what you hear is true! The old thing in Zhongjing City who is a vegetarian eater in the corpse position says that the general is a rebel who plots to rebel, and we are the rebels who help the abuse! Brothers, you say, "We are unyielding!?" ”
"Qu!"
"That's right, Qu! It's all fucking dying. Prime Minister Dog probably forgot who lifted his grandson to sit on the dragon chair back then, who prevented the rebellion in the inner court and stabilized the dynasty? Who led the troops to fight against Beirong, killed Southern Qi, guarded the peace of the Great Jin Dynasty, and guarded our wives and children? ”
"It's the general, it's the king of Yonghuai!" The soldiers below roared like thunder.
"Yes!" Helian Qian's eyes were fierce, one hand was crossed on his waist, he raised his eyes to look at the wind and snow, and shouted bitterly, "This is the country that I have defended in bloody battles, and this is the dynasty that I have guarded all my life regardless of life and death." The brothers died for it, but they became rebels, are they willing to do it? ”
"No!" The soldiers raised their swords and guns in unison, and responded loudly.
"The general is asked about treason, will we allow it?"
"Don't!"
"The dynasty has failed us, are we not going back?"
"Oppose!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers roared in unison, screaming like crazy.
"It's the other way around!"
"Fuck it!"
Helian Qian looked at everyone with red eyes, and the tall figure paced back and forth on the stage a few times, as if he was finally thinking, for a long moment, suddenly stopped, raised his arms and shouted.
"It was the national thief Li Zongxun who drove us to a dead end. We are rebelling against him! ”
"Kill Li Zongxun, establish the King of Qin as the new monarch, and rehabilitate the Beiyong Army."
Helian Qian shouted loudly, and tens of thousands of people responded in unison.
"Kill the national thief, establish a new monarch, and rehabilitate the Beiyong Army."
The blood that cannot be extinguished by the heavy snow is surging, and the passion that cannot be blown away by the cold wind burns.
The whole earth seemed to shake with a roar, and the shadows of swords and guns shook across the school grounds.
Retreat, a dead end.
There is still a glimmer of life.
Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Northern Yong Army poured into the north gate of Zhongjing.
The trebuchet was moved under the city walls, and the rubble roared and screamed.
Helian Qian mounted a war horse, brandished his waist sword, and commanded the soldiers behind him.
"Brothers, break into Zhongjing City and save King Yonghuai. Break into the Forbidden Garden and kill the thief Li Zongxun! ”
"Kill the thief Li Zongxun and re-establish a new king."
The high-pitched roar reverberated in the sky above Zhongjing City.
In the city, I don't know which big family lights fireworks to celebrate the New Year, rushing into the sky from unknown corners, reflecting this cold night with a different scenery.
-
Pei Mansion, the only thing that is clean in Bingge's voice is Tinglan Courtyard.
This is Mrs. Pei's favorite pavilion water pavilion during her lifetime.
Her grave is also here.
Pei Chong is a stubborn and eccentric man.
He buried his wife in the backyard and lived here alone, guarding every inch, not allowing others to approach.
Tinglan Courtyard is full of loneliness, as if it is not in the bustling Zhongjing City.
At this moment, standing by the courtyard water pavilion and watching Pei Chong drink, it was Pei Chong, who was wearing a battle armor and a crown.
He stood quietly under the snowy night, waiting for Pei Chong to finish drinking the last drop of wine in the jug, and then slowly approached with his knife.
"Father, the hour is almost up, it's time to go."
Pei Chong didn't look up, shook the wine jug, and put it down again.
"No alcohol."
A firework flew overhead.
Pei Yan glanced up, and his slightly frowning brows loosened a little.
"You come with me, I'll buy wine. You can drink as much as you want. ”
Only then did Pei Chong raise his drunken eyes, looked at him and said, "Your aunt is here, I won't leave." ”
Pei Yan's eyes were silent, and his tone was cold and powerful, "In Zhongjing, I only have fifteen thousand people. Father thinks that 15,000 people, how long can they resist 100,000 forbidden troops? There are also Tiger Ben, Long Ji, who must have quickly returned to Zhongjing at this time......"
Pei Chong listened to his cool voice and was silent for a while.
"Li Zongxun will not be caught with his hands tied, let alone let you break into the Forbidden Garden. Once the Forbidden Army frantically counterattacks, the situation will be ...... against you."
After a pause, he asked, "Where is King Qin?" ”
Pei Zhen: "It has been sent to Xijing." Not surprisingly, five days later, he will be proclaimed emperor in Xijing. ”
Pei Chong was slightly stunned.
In fact, not only did Li Zongxun not understand Pei Zhen's next move, but even he, who was a father, did not expect that Pei Zhen's desire was not Zhongjing, but set his sights on Xijing.
"You have your plans, and you don't have to ask for the father." Pei Chong's bleak face forced out a smile, and looked at the tall and mighty son, "Xijing is too far away, and my father is a crippled person, so I won't make trouble with him." ”
Pei Yan said: "Xiao Qi has received Sister A, and she will wait for her father in Xijing." ”
Pei Chong nodded and laughed hoarsely.
"You arrange it, I won't leave. Stay here with your mother. ”
Pei Yan asked: "Father doesn't want to be a thief, is he afraid of ruining the reputation of the Pei family?" ”
Pei Chong furrowed his brows, shook his head, and smiled bitterly.
"From the day I took you back to Pei's Mansion, my father knew that this day would come sooner or later, and the Pei family couldn't hide from it......"
Another long sigh.
He said: "If you don't rebel against the thief, let them go, I will bury my loyal bones here, and I will be worthy of the ancestors of the Pei family." ”
In the dark, Pei Zhen's brows furrowed and loosened, loosened and wrinkled, and only whispered a word for a while.
"Take it away."
The two words are cold, as if they are not affectionate, and they are like thunderbolts falling, full of the affection of father and son.
Pei Chong saw the two guards striding towards him, his thick eyebrows raised, and he snorted.
"Whoever dares to come, I will be bloodied on the spot, and you will be charged with the name of killing your father!" (End of chapter)
