retaliate

Yang Songcheng is drinking tea.

Even if he was fleeing, he still brought a lot of things that he was used to enjoying.

The only trouble is the food.

"Kingzhang."

The steward of the family came to report, "The food we brought is being targeted by those soldiers."

"Give it to them." Yang Songcheng said flatly.

"But what shall we do?" the steward asked.

"I'm overfed and killed, you choose one." Yang Songcheng looked at the steward.

"Yes."

The manager resigned.

The man in the blue shirt came in, "Master, Chen Xiao and the two seem to understand."

Yang Songcheng rubbed his teacup, feeling very comfortable, "Most of the country has been lost, and now he is in a mess, this is an emperor? My son-in-law has always been ruthless, and I am afraid he is at a loss now!"

He took a sip of tea, "It's time to change."

……

The emperor likes to read books recently.

He brought dozens of volumes of books with him when he fled, and he could sit for half a day with just one volume.

The curtain of the tent was rolled up, and a person came in silently and saluted.

"I have seen Your Majesty."

The emperor's gaze was still on the scroll, "Yes!"

Wang Hai, the commander of the Tianma Camp, took a look at Han Shitou, and said: "Your Majesty, Chen Xiao and Yang Minghe are drinking, and the head of the state went to see them, and I don't know what they said."

"Ok!"

The emperor slowly put down the scroll, with a cold look on his brow.

"He felt that I was in trouble, and wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble and let the third son ascend the throne."

In one sentence, the purpose of Yang Songcheng's plan was revealed.

Han Shitou said, "Your Majesty, don't underestimate him."

"They won't do anything until the result of the battle between Shi Ni and that evil species comes out." The emperor's eyes shone with Han Shitou's familiar look.

He was like a peerless swordsman, seeking defeat alone, but now he found an enemy worth fighting.

Any big moves are foolish until the big fight comes to fruition.

"Wang Hai!"

"exist!"

"There are generals arranged by me in the army. Take the money and tell him to win over some generals who are loyal to me."

"Leader!"

The emperor smiled, seeing Han Shitou sighing, he said with a smile: "What did Shitou think of?"

Han Shitou said: "This servant thinks of His Majesty back then."

Before the emperor launched the palace change, he also used money to bribe the guards in the palace, and then he was able to kill them smoothly.

People who are good at using power and tactics are also the best at trying to figure out people's hearts.

The emperor laughed, with memories in his eyes, "That year... I was full of energy!"

Han Shitou resigned.

Outside the tent, Second Sun is waiting for him.

"How?" Han Shitou asked.

Sun Laoer said: "Let's go and ask the generals we know well, and they said that the big battle over there is estimated to last more than ten days."

"More than ten days!"

"Are you in a hurry?"

"After so many years of waiting, we... don't rush!"

"Then why are you clenching your fist?"

……

During this journey of escape, the hearts of the Jingtai were also somewhat scattered.

The accompanying soldiers were not full, but the people on the stage did not lack food.

Most of them are good hands, and they can get food by sneaking into the homes of big local households.

However, later they discovered that many of the big local households had fled.

"Things are not looking good right now."

Zhao Sanfu and Zheng Yuandong were discussing in a secret place in the camp.

Zheng Yuandong's official uniform has not been washed for a long time, and he looks a little embarrassed.

"What do you mean?"

"The front is Jintai County. People from Jingtai went to investigate and found that the county magistrate and officials had all escaped."

Zheng Yuandong was stunned, "This is the tree falling and the monkeys scattered!"

"Old Zheng, the time has come." Zhao Sanfu was a little happy, "The dissatisfaction of the lieutenants and soldiers towards him has reached the extreme. If Chen Xiao and Yang Minghe hadn't suppressed him, it would have erupted long ago."

"The old man knows, but Chen Xiao and Yang Minghe's position is not clear." Zheng Yuandong stretched out his hand.

"what?"

"Don't tell the old man that you haven't eaten."

"You are a dignified servant of the Ministry of War, and you can't even get a piece of cake?" Zhao Sanfu sneered.

"Not to mention the old man, Zhang Huan has been hungry for half a day." Zheng Yuandong said.

Zhao Sanfu took out a greased paper bag, opened it, and found a chicken leg inside.

Zheng Yuandong ate a few bites, and aftertaste, "Beautiful!"

"I thought it was time to start this matter." Zhao Sanfu lowered his voice, "It can encourage the soldiers to attack."

"The old man is already preparing." Zheng Yuandong's eyes became more cold, "The old man asked people to spread news in the army, saying that the rebels are chasing them."

There is a shortage of food in the army, and the rebels are chasing after them...

"Officials in front flee..."

The two smiled at each other.

A sense of the end of the world arises spontaneously.

……

Huahua pretended to be an accompanying civilian woman, wandering around the core area of ​​the camp every day.

This time, she came with more than a dozen experts, and followed King Qin's instructions to stare at the false emperor.

"Huahua, that's... King Zhen."

Jiang Xing and Huahua pretended to be a couple, and accidentally saw King Zhen Li Xin standing outside the tent.

Hua Hua glanced at King Zhen, "Your Majesty's second son?"

"Yes." Jiang Xing said: "When I was in the palace, the old man once protected him."

"I hope he won't compete with His Highness."

Huahua didn't like King Zhen very much. If King Qin ordered the death of this half-brother, she would do it without hesitation.

……

The news of the escape of Jintai County officials came back.

"People's hearts are so scattered, whose responsibility is it?"

Yang Songcheng was drinking tea with a group of patriarchs.

A group of people are silent.

Whose responsibility?

After a long time, Chunyu Shan said, "Who promoted Shi Zhongtang?"

emperor!

But it is naturally inappropriate to directly say the emperor.

"Concubine."

Yang Songcheng glanced at the person who spoke.

"Yes."

……

Liang Jing felt as if he was being watched.

He hurried to find the imperial concubine.

"Sister, I don't know who is staring at me."

"Brother, you are tired, go back and rest!" The imperial concubine has just received the emperor's guarantee that order will be restored within half a month at most.

……

"Has the news not come yet?" Yang Songcheng asked.

"Shi Zhongtang has already left the customs."

Zheng Qi was also a little anxious, "Once you leave the customs, there is no room for change. This battle should come to an end soon."

"Then, wait a little longer." Yang Songcheng said: "The old man is not in a hurry, but the King of Yue is a little impatient."

……

The stakes of the mirror stage went back and forth between the camp and Guanzhong. Fifteen people went there, seven came back, and the remaining eight died or ran away.

There is still no news about the war... Jiagu Pass has blocked the route to get out of the pass to inquire about news.

"Keep an eye on Jiagu Pass."

Zhao Sanfu then went to report to the emperor.

"understood."

The emperor nodded, and Zhao Sanfu resigned.

"and many more!"

The emperor stopped Zhao Sanfu and asked, "What is King Yue doing?"

"I'm reading a book, and I even asked Mr. for advice."

"It really is hard work!"

The emperor praised it, but Zhao Sanfu thought it was ridicule no matter what he heard.

"Minister, leave."

The emperor watched him go out, and said with a sneer: "The third child has been smart since he was a child, but he has been cunning. The eldest brother and the second child often have conflicts, and he stays out of it every time. But once I watched him, I found that he was quietly embellishing..."

Your puppies are not fuel-efficient lamps... Han Shitou sneered in his heart.

However, if he is a dull prince, he might not grow up.

There is only one, King Jing.

"Even if he succeeds, he is just a puppet of Yang Songcheng's gang. Datang, whose Datang is that?"

……

"What the head of the country means, let the king be more filial."

Zhao Dongping analyzed Yang Songcheng's words for King Yue... Just before, King Yue went to see Yang Songcheng, and Yang Songcheng told him to be more cautious recently.

"Is this king not filial enough?"

The bridge of Yue King's nose is a little crooked, which affects the overall senses, from weak to fierce, "This king will copy an hour of Buddhist scriptures every day to pray for Aye.

Every day, the king got up early and went to wait outside the tent. After Aye woke up, washed up, and had breakfast, he could go in to say hello.

After returning, I have to pretend to be studious and study... Do you know what I want to do most at this moment? "

Zhao Dongping sighed.

"This king most wants to be a commoner in the market, worrying about three meals a day, but not worrying about his relatives stabbing him in the back!"

It was the first time King Yue vented his dissatisfaction like this, "This king married the princess, but she was not allowed to enter the palace. What is this king afraid of? Afraid of that old dog!!!"

His eyes were red, "He has no shortage of women, and he can pick all the beauties in the world. What he wants is excitement, and what he wants is to humiliate his son. This king is pretending to be weak, but if the situation of deposing the prince is in this king's life If it happens again, I am worried that I will lose control...kill him!"

The father and son of the Tian family are like enemies!
Zhao Dongping said softly: "Your Highness, just wait a little longer."

"Until the moment of death, he will not abandon power!" King Yue sneered.

"But the patriarch and the others... also have their own wishes!" Zhao Dongping reminded King Yue that your grandfather was not a good stubble, so be careful to become a puppet.

"Everyone says that the Tian family has no kinship, and it's fine if they don't. But they turned themselves into poisonous insects. The palace, and even Chang'an City, became a poisonous den. A group of poisonous insects bit each other and killed each other. The opponent bites his own relatives until he is left alone."

King Yue took a deep breath, "This king has lost his composure."

"If it were an old man, I'm afraid he would have collapsed a long time ago." Zhao Dongping admired King Yue's patience.

"This king is not going to bear it anymore." King Yue said coldly: "Even if he is Yang Songcheng's puppet, this king will let that old dog lose face!"

……

"Keep an eye on Saburo, if necessary..."

Under the candlelight, the emperor's face was somewhat blurred.

"Yes!"

Wang Hai agreed.

The emperor said coldly: "Yang Songcheng is only relying on Saburo."

The king of Yue is Yang Songcheng's hole card, but the emperor is going to blow his hole card.

"I, stop playing!"

……

It was night, and the emperor slept well.

But the imperial concubine had trouble falling asleep.

Today Liang Jing came to see him again, and said that the soldiers outside were talking about it, saying that the decline of the Tang Dynasty had something to do with her.

I am a woman and do not participate in government affairs. What does it have to do with me when the Tang Dynasty is in such a state?
The imperial concubine felt wronged.

By candlelight, she glanced at the people around her.

The emperor slept soundly facing her, his mouth was open, and he could see the shriveled roots of his teeth, which were a little black.At some point, the long black hair that the emperor was so proud of became grizzled.

A wisp of saliva dripped slowly from the corner of the emperor's mouth.

I remember which medical officer said that drooling while sleeping is due to a bad spleen.

……

Silent night.

King Jing wandered around outside in high spirits.

He walked quietly between the tents, occasionally listening to the movement inside, and then left with disdain.

He went outside the tent of his mother, Concubine Ming, and quietly groped in.

"Auntie!"

Concubine Ming, who has been restless lately, sat up abruptly, "Who?"

"I!"

King Jing whispered, "It's me."

"Liulang?" Concubine Ming rubbed her eyes, "What are you trying to do?"

"Mother, something is wrong."

"What do you mean?"

"Recently, I have seen those courtiers and soldiers looking at Aye with wrong eyes, quite dissatisfied, and even dismissive. A Niang, Aye is not good."

Concubine Ming felt relieved, "It has nothing to do with us, go back to sleep."

"Aniang, Yang Songcheng and others are quite active." King Jing felt that his mother was an idiot, "Once King Yue ascends the throne, Yang Songcheng and the others will kill me!"

"Then... what should I do then?"

"It takes chaos to have a chance."

……

Later, King Jing appeared on the outskirts of the camp.

This is the territory of the army.

At this moment, many people still did not sleep, complaining in the tent.

"I'm starving to death!"

"The emperor had roasted lamb for lunch today. The roasted lamb is so fat! It's so fat."

"Look at what we ate. There is no lunch, only half a pancake for dinner, and I will be hungry in half an hour. Yeah, I can only drink a full stomach of water, and it makes a rattling sound when I lie down."

"The terrible thing is, I don't know what to eat tomorrow."

"This day has not been posted."

"Yes."

"After all, it's all His Majesty's fault. He was so full that he went to get rid of Xu Guogong and let that foreigner Shi Zhongtang take over."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Did I say something wrong?"

"That's His Majesty!"

"It's the imperial concubine brother and sister!"

"Yes, they are brothers and sisters of the imperial concubine."

Someone outside suddenly said: "You dog thief, wait for His Majesty's disposal!"

Everyone in the tent panicked and came out in a hurry.

But it was empty outside, and no one could be seen.

King Jing bent over and ran towards the emperor's tent.

Behind, those sergeants grinned grimly.

"Since you want to kill us, then... strike first!"
