Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1032
The sky was getting dark, and the royal capital, which had been noisy for a day, gradually calmed down.

In the night, the palace also became more and more quiet and solemn.

Gao Jianwu was not in the mood for alcohol, and had no interest in the memorial on Wang's case. He was in a daze with a cup of tea.

After a long time, Gao Jianwu just stared at the teacup intently.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much. Your Majesty hosted a banquet in the palace, and the generals were all very excited. The morale of this army has recovered, and they will definitely defeat the Tang army!" the servant whispered comfortingly.

"The generals are really excited, but I don't know whether they are excited because they are alone with a feast, or because they are excited when they hear that Yuan Gai Suwen is in command." Gao Jianwu pondered.

"The slaves and maidservants feel that they are all there. Of course they are excited to see Tianyan and the king's banquet. After all, General Yuan led the army all the way to attack the city in Silla. Now that he is in command again, they must be excited too." The servant smiled apologetically.

Gao Jianwu asked: "Then which one do you think is more excited?"

The servant replied without hesitation: "Of course it was the king's banquet that made them more excited. Yuan Gai Suwen was able to take command after all because of the king's appreciation. The generals will not understand!"

Gao Jianwu put down the teacup in his hand, frowned slightly and said, "Not necessarily, today all the generals knelt down to plead for Yuan Gai Suwen, Gu was very moved, Yuan Gai Suwen's prestige in the army is really extraordinary Ah! Tell me, if Gu does not agree to put Yuan Gai Suwen in command, what will happen to those generals?"

The servant couldn't help but feel a sudden shock when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "All the generals will definitely kneel on the ground and beg bitterly, but, Wang Shang Shengming, why would you let them kneel on the ground and beg bitterly?"

Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice: "I'm just thinking, now Yuan Gai Suwen holds 20 troops in the royal capital, if he has a different intention and tampers with the generals, what should he do?"

The servant smiled and said: "Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, the generals are wholeheartedly fighting against the enemy, how can they be deceived by others? Yuan Gai Suwen is just the commander of the army, the commander appointed by the king, the soldiers are not Yuan Gai Suwen's soldiers, It's the king's soldiers!"

"Although what you said makes sense, Gu still feels uneasy." Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice. He made up his mind in his heart. After Yuan Gai Suwen repelled the Tang army, he must solve Yuan Gai Suwen, otherwise sooner or later To cause a catastrophe.

Just as Gao Jianwu was thinking this way, he suddenly noticed a commotion outside.

"What happened outside?" Gao Jianwu raised his voice and asked.

"My lord, there is water leaking outside the palace, what a big fire!" The guards reported from outside the main hall.

The servant heard this and quickly said: "The people outside were too careless. It was so dry that it caused a big fire. But you don't need to worry about it. You Si Yamen will definitely put it out soon!"

Standing in front of the main hall, Gao Jianwu frowned tightly as he looked at the half of the night sky reddened by the flames.

Will there be such a big fire in the water?
"Go upstairs and have a look!" Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice.

The inner guard quickly opened the way and walked up the nearby tower.

When I got to the tall building, I could see the fire more and more clearly.

The fire was really big, and the servant comforted him and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Now that there are many soldiers in the capital, the fire will be put out soon!"

"Looking at the direction, it's near the west city gate, right?" Gao Jianwu asked thoughtfully.

"Return, Your Majesty, it seems to be!"

"Yuan Gai Suwen's army is stationed [-] miles away from the west city gate! I hope this is just a coincidence!" Gao Jianwu murmured.

Only then did the guards and servants next to him understand that what the king was worried about was not the fire at all, but that someone would make trouble.

Until now, they were startled with fear. If Yuan Gai Suwen led the army to make trouble, would the palace guards and other soldiers in the city be able to fight it?

Yuan Gai Suwen and the generals in the army should not be so bold, right?

"Send the guards out of the palace to see what's going on!" Gao Jianwu said in a deep voice.

Immediately, guards went to take orders, but the fire continued, and the palace seemed to be getting more and more chaotic.

Gao Jianwu frowned and said, "Why did Gu hear the sound of killing? Did you hear it?"

Shouting?Everyone was startled when they heard this, if there were shouts of killing, wouldn't it mean that Yuan Gai Suwen rebelled?
Yuan Gai Su Wen held so many soldiers and horses, if he really rebelled, who would be able to resist?
When they listened carefully, they didn't hear shouts of killing, after all, the distance between them was too far, but they heard loud movements.

If it was just fighting the fire, would there be such a big commotion?
The servant tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, maybe you are fighting a fire!"

Are you really fighting a fire?Was the fire accidental?

Gao Jianwu's face was as deep as water and he said in a deep voice: "Immediately pass on Gu's order. The guards in the palace and the soldiers and horses of the battalions in the city will be on strict alert. If there are criminals who cause trouble, they will be killed immediately!"

Immediately, a servant rushed down the tower to pass the order, and then a guard rushed over.

"My lord, the general on duty at the west city gate came to report that someone had set fire to the city gate, and hundreds of bandits took the opportunity to hide in the city gate. There seemed to be a large group of cavalry outside the city. , can’t see clearly in the dark!”

There was silence on the tower, and the servants were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe, thinking that the army led by Yuan Gai Suwen was stationed outside the west city, how could they not understand what happened?
Yuan Gai Suwen really rebelled!
Unexpectedly, before Tang Jun attacked, Yuan Gai Suwen attacked first!

All the servants were stunned. They could be regarded as the king's confidants if they could follow the king's side. If the rebels came in, could they be let go?

"Okay, okay, what a wolf-hearted Yuan Gai Suwen! Gu just appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the army today, yet he conspired against him today!" Gao Jianwu said bitterly.

There was still a bit of residual heat in the night, but Gao Jianwu felt a bone-chilling chill.

Yuan Gai Su Wen rebelled, doesn't that mean that the entire army has fallen into his hands?

Unexpectedly, Yuan Gai Suwen's control over the army has reached such a level, and these generals have no loyalty to the emperor!
If he had known this earlier, he should have killed Yuan Gai Suwen with a single blow!
No, Yuan Gai Suwen should be killed when Yuan Gai Suwen came back from his mission!
If Yuan Gai Suwen had been killed at that time, there would be no crisis of destroying the country today, let alone the crisis of the army rebelling!

Sorry for the first time!
But, never sit still!

"Order Gao Jianqun to lead a thousand guards to retake the city gate!"

"Order all the battalions in the city to guard against death, and no soldiers or horses are allowed to enter the city without the will of the solitary!"

"Cui Qing, draw up an order immediately, and send guards out of the city to deliver the order to the soldiers and horses of King Qin from all over the place, telling them to enter the city immediately!"
