Chapter 328
Although the night is deep, people sleep lightly.

Sandalwood flutters on it, and plain tea is warm and moist on the table.

The long sword stands on the side, and the person kneels and sits in front of him.

The moonlight elongated the black shadow and fell to the ground, turning into carvings on the windows.

There was a sound of hurried but rhythmic footsteps, followed by the door being pushed open, and a figure entered the room.

"Master, the rebellion has been resolved, the little master has no worries."

Zhao Wang slowly opened his eyes, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"After this incident, I think he should be able to take the next step."

Putting down the teacup, Zhao Wang reached out and stroked the long sword, his eyes seemed to be looking at an old friend.

"Let our people withdraw."

"Yes."

The figure retreated in response.

"Heidi."

"Subordinates are here."

Another figure quietly appeared on the side.

"Is there any change in the nobles in Guanzhong?"

"No change for now."

"Okay, pass on the order. Before the young master leaves Luoyang, he must keep an eye on the nobles in Guanzhong. In addition, inform our people to make a note and tell His Majesty what happened in Longxi."

"Yes."

After everything was arranged, King Zhao slowly stood up.

Walking to the window, looking at the moonlight all over the sky, he sighed slightly.

"The darker the night, the closer the dawn."

Solitary House.

Dugu leaned against the wood and read the bamboo slips. He is old and his eyesight is not very good, so he can only read under the candlestick.

The little book boy looked at Duguzheng worriedly, and it was fine to study late at night, if he was caught by the candlestick
"Master, be careful!"

Dugu's whole thoughts were disturbed, and when he came back to his senses, his nose smelled a burnt smell, and his eyes saw that a strand of beard on his chin was burned by the candle.

He quickly slapped and slapped.

After everything was tidied up, the little book boy persuaded: "Master, why don't you rest."

Dugu shook his head, took the tea from the book boy, and moistened his throat.

"You go down first, the second master comes back and asks him to come directly."

"Yes." The little book boy withdrew.

Dugu stroked his scorched beard and smiled calmly.

How could he be able to sleep tonight, there is still one big thing waiting for his confirmation.

"I don't know if King Qi succeeded." Dugu muttered, leaning on the couch and closing his eyes to rest.

About half an hour later, Duguzhen's second brother Duguzhen came back.

"Brother, I'm back."

Dugu Zhen walked up to Dugu whole body.

Duguzheng slowly opened his eyes and asked, "Did King Qi succeed?"

"No, he failed." Dugu shook his head, and immediately said: "According to our spies' report, the emperor has already ambushed Zuo Yuwei in the palace, waiting for King Qi to plot a rebellion."

Duguzheng sneered, "Did you see that our emperor is still so cautious, making decisions before making moves. He must have got the news of King Qi's rebellion in advance, but he didn't move."

"Why?" Dugu Zhen was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, if the son rebelled, if he got the news in advance, shouldn't the emperor directly stop it, this is a scandal for the royal family.

"Because he wants to use this incident to see if he can catch more people. I even suspect that his illness is faking, just to see who will show up first." Dugu Zheng said firmly.

Dugu Zhen felt a little startled.

"Brother, what should we do next?"

"Notify Dou Wei and let them speed up. The emperor is already crazy. Who can guarantee that he will one day charge us with trumped-up charges and drag us all to Dongshi to be beheaded." Duguzheng said .

"Yes, I'll go right now."

Wenxi County Government.

There was such a big commotion in Luoyang City tonight, many people had received the news.

At this moment, the Pei brothers knelt and sat across the table with solemn expressions, and they could see the ugly face on each other.

Although King Qi's failure in the rebellion has nothing to do with the Pei family, the problem is that Yang Gan from Jingduwei actually participated in it.

Who is Yang Gan? He is a direct descendant of the Hongnong Yang family and also a direct descendant of the Shandong gentry.

Now that Yang Gan has rebelled, what will the emperor think of the Shandong gentry, and will he suspect that they are also involved?
These are all things that the Pei brothers are considering.

Pei Ju was wearing unlined clothes, and his eyes were bloodshot. He had just been notified by Pei Yun of King Qi's rebellion.

The person who sent back the news was the son of the Shandong gentry who stayed in the Jinwu Guard.

"What do you think about this matter?"

Pei Yun smiled wryly and shook his head, "Brother, I'm really at a loss now, I never thought that the first rebel this time would be King Qi."

Pei Ju analyzed: "At first glance, King Qi's rebellion is indeed unexpected, but it is not unexpected."

Hearing this, Pei Yun thought for a while, and then said: "Brother, you mean that King Qi doesn't want to be the second King of Han?"

Pei Ju nodded, "That's right, the prince is dead, and the position of prince is completely vacant. Isn't everyone able to see which prince your majesty prefers now? And once the third prince ascends the throne in the future, the eldest brother of King Qi It becomes an eyesore."

The voice fell, and the brothers were silent for a while.

"Is there no way out?" Pei Yun said.

"Almost." Pei Ju sighed lightly, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "For King Qi, no matter how he goes, it seems to be a dead end."

Pei Yun said: "If the King of Qi could learn from the prince's lesson back then, but let His Majesty know that he has colluded with Yang Taisu, will there be a chance?"

"No." Pei Ju denied
"why?"

"Because His Majesty is a smart man, he knows King Qi's talents well. If His Majesty really valued King Qi, then after moving the capital, he would definitely focus on training him, but no, the one who focused on training was the Third Prince."

After a pause, Pei Ju said: "It can be seen from this that His Majesty actually doesn't like King Qi. This may be what I take for granted, and it may have something to do with the harem."

The Lantern Festival had just passed, and the weather was still cold. Pei Ju shrank his neck, and said with a smile: "However, the events tonight are not all bad. At least Qingque performed very well in it, so maybe this can slow down your majesty a little." suspicion of it."

Pei Yun nodded, suddenly remembered something, and guessed: "Brother, according to the news that came back at that time, His Majesty did not order the left feather guard to clear the Kyoto guard until the last moment. .Do you think His Majesty will?"

Pei Ju's pupils shrank, and his face became ugly again.

"What Brother Xian said is, no matter what, His Majesty can't be completely relieved. We have to find a way, and Taiyuan can't drag it any longer."

Pei Yun said: "Brother, don't worry, Wang Hong told me some time ago that they have the evidence that Yu Binghong accepted Taihang horse bandits, and they can report to His Majesty at any time."

"Then strike while the iron is hot, now is the best time." Pei Ju said: "I suspect that if the nobles in Guanzhong move, His Majesty will probably let Qingque beat them, and then it will be bad."

On the other side, Jiang Chengxiao led Zuo Yuwei to hunt down the remnants of Jingdu Wei in the palace.

Jinhua Palace.

Blood stained the entire hall red.

As the place that King Qi took care of, it was attacked by Jingdu Wei almost at the same time as the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation is still guarded by Zuo Yuwei, but there is nothing in Jinhua Palace.

When Jiang Chengxiao led the Zuo Yuwei to arrive, the Jinhua Palace had been almost destroyed by the Jingdu Guard, the maid was wantonly abused by the Jingdu Guard's soldiers, and the servant beheaded on the spot.

At this moment, in the inner room of Jinhua Palace.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Jiang Chengxiao raised his sword and looked at Concubine Xiao who was huddled in a corner with disheveled clothes.

The hairpin is disheveled, the clothes are disheveled, and the face is bleak.

Jiang Chengxiao thought to himself, could it be that Concubine Xiao was given by those Qiu Ba?
Although thousands of people are going, I also want to see the scenery
No no, the idea is a bit off the line.

Concubine Xiao slowly raised her head when she heard Jiang Chengxiao's voice, then shook her head again.

"Help me up."

Jiang Chengxiao secretly rolled his eyes, today's situation is special, let's get used to you once.

Pulling Concubine Xiao's tender arm, she pulled it up.

Who knew, Concubine Xiao was still in shock at this moment, her legs gave way and she fell into Jiang Chengxiao's arms.

Warm and fragrant, no other strange smell.

Jiang Chengxiao thought to himself, Concubine Xiao should not have been ruined by Qiu Ba.

"Your Majesty, stand still." Jiang Chengxiao politely stepped aside, trying to curb the distraction in his heart.

Concubine Xiao also didn't care about being shy, she nodded, trying to stand firm.

It's a pity that the heart is more than enough.

The miserable wailing of the court lady lingered in my ears, and the painful screams of the servants seemed to be still echoing in the palace.

thump!
She threw herself into Jiang Chengxiao's arms again.
