The devil is coming

Chapter 711 Outside the palace gate, the peach blossoms remain the same
Lord Zheng holds the Emperor's Sword,
Sitting on Pixiu's back,
resignedly,
That is inevitable.
Facing a troop of soldiers who respected and were extremely polite to him but would not listen to his orders at all, well, he was still their "coach" in name only;
What's more, at this time, a big change was still taking place in Yanjing City.
Not used to it, really not used to it;
Since he was transferred from Hutou City to Cuiliu Fort, in the past five years, he, Zheng Fan, has basically participated in every situation in Dayan. He can also be regarded as a witness to Dayan's development over the years.
In the drama of seizing the direct descendant, he had followed 99 steps since he entered the capital, but at the last moment, he was kicked out and ended up here.
It's a pity that I can't witness it anymore.
And it was the emperor who caused all this. His hands had already taken care of all this. "It has nothing to do with others" and could not play any real key role in this matter.
Seize the direct descendant,
It's the emperor's family matter,
We need to give an explanation to the people of the world, and of course, the most important thing is to give an explanation to the two princes;
However, when it really happens, outsiders should not come in and join in the fun.
Mr. Zheng was a little anxious in his heart.
When having hot pot with Lao Tian, ​​Lao Tian said that whoever becomes the new king is inseparable from you, Ping Xihou;
The blind man mentioned that if Ji Laoliu becomes the new king, it may be even worse for us, because I used to think that Ji Laoliu was very cute when he ate cornmeal.
But the fundamental reason for being "cute" is that he has been suppressed by Emperor Yan and cannot reach out to the real core of power. To be precise, the real power of a country. Once he takes that position, he inherits everything from Emperor Yan. , then this opponent will definitely be more targeted in his moves;
It is true that the blind man has always considered "rebellion" as a premise.
In fact, Zheng Fan also knew this, but even putting aside the deal between the two, in terms of emotional tendencies, he still slightly hoped that Ji Laoliu would have the last laugh in the end.
I remember that at the gate of Zhenbei Hou Mansion, one was Prince Xiaoyao and the other was a miscellaneous business school captain;
nowadays,
If one can become a prince and the other can sit on the throne, when looking back on life, it seems to be able to give a circle. Putting aside the personal interests, it is actually quite beautiful.
As for the rest, let’s talk about it later.
wait,
wait,
then,
The leaving bell rings.
After the nine tolls of the departure bell,
The soldiers all knelt down and began to cry.
Lord Zheng also got off Pixiu, holding the Emperor's Sword in his arms, and knelt on the ground.
There were some things that couldn't be understood in the past. To be precise, you wouldn't be able to see them clearly until today.
That was Emperor Yan, his prestige in the military.
An emperor with great talent and strategy, an emperor who is determined to pioneer and enterprising, must be supported by his soldiers.
Even the Jingnan Army, loyal to Lao Tian, ​​would join in attacking Yanjing even if Lao Tian ordered a rebellion. But when they learned that Emperor Yan died, would they be sad or cry?
meeting,
It is bound to happen.
Human beings are complex carriers, and an army is a group composed of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, which will only make it more complex.
Because whether it is the Zhenbei Army or the Jingnan Army, the majority of the soldiers, oh no, to be precise, are basically Yan people.
Emperor Yan seems to have delegated power, and the two major field cavalry groups of Dayan are all in the hands of the two princes. But in fact, Emperor Yan has long been the emperor of all Yan people. This prestige and influence cannot be achieved. Fake.
The name is justifiable and dignified. Many times it seems useless, but sometimes, you really can't deny the value of its existence.
For example, Xu Pangpang was a staunch supporter of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion rebellion in his early years. Now, isn't he also a great Yan Zhongliang and Mu Shou?
perhaps,
Only his Lord Zheng's Jindong Army would suffer the least impact from this news.
Because the main body of the Jindong Army is not purely Yan people, they cannot empathize with them.
then,
After a brief emotional ups and downs,
A very real question came,
in the end,
Who's winning?
Is it Liuzi?
Is it the prince?
Or was it another prince who ate this delicious meat bun?
then,
What should I do myself?
It is not oneself who wins the heir apparent, but the problem is that outsiders are often more caring and eager than the candidates.
Fortunately,
The wait didn't last long.
Eunuch Qu came with the imperial edict.
"Ping Xihou, take the order."
The emperor has just passed away, what kind of decree is this?
Is it a posthumous edict or from the new king?
Lord Zheng knelt down and prepared to receive the order.
Of course, Zheng Fan will not be Fusu. If the decree says that he should drink a glass of wine or commit suicide, then Lord Zheng will rebel every minute.
But the content of the imperial edict was brief and beyond Mr. Zheng’s expectations:
"I ordered Ping Xihou Zheng Fan to quickly mobilize the Jingnan troops outside the city to enter the capital to protect my holy bow."
"..." Zheng Fan.
This is not like the last edict of Emperor Yan, nor is it like the edict of the new emperor issued by the crown prince or other princes, nor is it like the edict issued by Ji Laoliu. He, Ji Laoliu, knows what he is like. Human!
In the mutton soup restaurant in Beifeng County, the two of them had long expressed their feelings and analyzed their true nature.
but,
Lord Zheng still:
"Sir, lead the order."
Never mind Sanqi 21, at this moment, the most important thing is that he has soldiers and horses by his side that he trusts and will definitely protect him.
After receiving the order, when he got up again, he found Eunuch Zhang standing behind Eunuch Qu and beside Xiao Liuzi.
Oh.
It seems to understand.
Lord Zheng held the Emperor's Sword, turned over on Pixiu, and first said to Fan Li beside him:
"Go back and send your family back to the palace."
"Yes, my lord."
Fan Li left.
Lord Zheng, accompanied by Eunuch Qu, came to the east gate again.
The city gate was opened.
No one questioned the imperial edict's arrangement, and everything seemed to go smoothly.
But this was obviously not long before the bell rang, and there should have been suspicion and blame on all sides, but now this matter is going particularly smoothly.
Lord Zheng left the city and came to the camp outside the city.
Marquis Zheng, who could try to brush his face, still took out the Jingnan Wang Ling under the gaze of Eunuch Qu.
then,
No surprises,
Ten thousand Jingnan Army cavalry, plus the personal soldiers brought by Lord Zheng from Fengxin City, all rose up in obedience to the order.
When the army entered Beijing, there was no obstruction at all.
Everything is as smooth as silk.
It was so smooth that Mr. Zheng was not used to it.
Lord Zheng left the city,
Lord Zheng is back again,
around,
He also brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who obeyed him.
It would be too embarrassing to shout: I, Hu Hansan, am back again;
But at least I have a sense of security, I feel more confident, and I feel like I am capable again.
"Eunuch Qu, where should I go next?" Lord Zheng asked nonsense.
"Master Marquis, you should go to His Majesty to thank you for your kindness."
Zheng Fan nodded,
With a wave of hands,
The cavalry formed a column and headed towards the palace.
A few days ago, when he received the Emperor's Sword from Emperor Yan and was ordered to go out of the city to mobilize troops, Lord Zheng thought about whether he could become Dong Zhuo on the way;
right now,
His soldiers were mobilized.
Tens of thousands of cavalry are definitely a force that cannot be ignored in the capital.
Although there are still Zhenbei troops in the city, if they really attack, whoever strikes first will have the upper hand. It's not that they can't be defeated with fire.
What about rebellion?
Even a [-]% success rate is enough for countless ambitious people to follow suit.
What's more, I can barely live a [-]-[-] life now.
But even more so,
Zheng Fan became more and more confused.
When you don't have that opportunity, you can't help but think about it. When you "have it at your fingertips", you suddenly feel a sense of dullness in your heart.
of course,
It’s not like there’s no element of everything being too smooth.
This means that Yanjing City did not fall into chaos due to the death of Emperor Yan. On the contrary, this imperial city is still operating in an orderly position at a key position.
If the water is not mixed, how can we fish?
The so-called "[-]-[-] split" is only on the surface, but in reality, it will only be lower.
the most important is,
Emperor Yan passed away, and Lord Zheng was relieved. The appearance of Eunuch Zhang proved with a high probability that Xiao Liuzi had won;
The good days are coming visibly to the naked eye. Is there really no need to take desperate risks at this moment?
Anyway,
With all kinds of thoughts intertwined in his mind, Lord Zheng led the army to the gate of the palace.
On the way,
I saw the extremely sad people;
At the same time, because this imperial city accommodated too many soldiers and horses, to a certain extent, it did contain the chaos that might occur due to the death of Emperor Yan, such as smashing, smashing, and looting.
And when Lord Zheng came to the entrance of the palace,
The carriage that Ji Laoliu and the prince were riding in had not actually arrived yet.
Because the carriage was moving very slowly, deliberately slowly.
After Emperor Yan returned to the palace from the back garden, the palace was not actually cleaned;
This time the new king is entering the palace, so he must clean up a lot.
Both Wei Zhonghe and Lu Bing are experts at this. In fact, they have already figured out where there is dust in the palace and where it is hard to open their eyes. However, it still takes some time to clean up.
Furthermore, since the new monarch has promulgated the first decree, he must be respected. It is impossible for the new monarch to wait for Pingxi Marquis at the gate of the palace, right?
This is considerate treatment from the emperor,
Ji Chengjue was enjoying it.
Over there at the palace gate,
The fourth prince Ji Chengfeng heard the Li bell ringing first,
In an instant,
He wanted to laugh, but he held it back. It was so painful that he burst into tears.
Subsequently,
It was the overwhelming panic that began to overwhelm him!
When my father was around, I always felt like I couldn't breathe. Moreover, Xiaoqi was too young and among the princes who were still adults, the prince and the sixth were naturally the first group, the eldest was the second, and the fifth was outside. Build river embankments,
Therefore,
Counting and counting,
The most useless among the princes might be like Lao San, who was thrown into a brazier and burned, and he was the only one left.
The feeling of having to be ready to dedicate yourself to your father and Dayan all the time is really a terrible torment.
right now,
Dad is gone,
After the initial violent mood swings ended, Ji Chengfeng suddenly realized that the pillars in his home had collapsed.
then,
What should he do?
My father died, what will happen to the throne?
Straight bitch,
Who won in the end?
Don’t give me some accurate words soon!
No matter what, there is one thing that Ji Chengfeng knows very well, that is, it has nothing to do with him, and it is impossible for him to win, but now, he is guarding the most important position of the palace gate.
If you are not careful, if you show any flaws next, you may not even be able to become an idle clan member!
In the midst of his anxiety,
The knights of the Jingnan Army appeared.
Ji Laoliu's soldiers and horses are the Beijing camp that he pulled together. There are some old soldiers in it, but on the whole, they have not really been on the battlefield and seen blood;
In fact, Li Liangshen's Zhenbei Army has not won any battles in recent years;
Weapons will rust if left unused for a long time, and the same goes for soldiers and horses. After not fighting for several years, even the most powerful soldiers and horses will become impetuous, especially since the Zhenbei Army in this town is still stationed in Gyeonggi. A prosperous place is much more interesting and nourishing than chewing sand in a desert.
As for Zheng Fan's own bodyguards and the Jingnan Army, the headquarters of the Wan Jingnan King, they have fought almost all the wars of Dayan's foreign conquests in the past few years. The evil aura is so strong that it is dripping with water. .
Many soldiers' armors still have fresh damage and dents. This is the armor's medal of honor, and it is the most direct deterrent to outsiders!
Therefore,
When Lord Pingxi led this army and horses appeared at the palace gate,
Ji Chengfeng immediately realized one thing. It was absolutely impossible for the soldiers and horses under his command to stop them.
Of course, it is not impossible to close the palace gate and rely on the palace wall for defense.
After all, the palace's defense fortifications, this towering palace wall, were actually designed with practicality in mind.
But the problem is that over hundreds of years, especially when the emperor's grandfather built Taoist and Buddhist temples in the capital, his father simply converted those Taoist and Buddhist temples into government offices, which caused the palace to expand all of a sudden. For the convenience of the courtiers, some places were even modified to make the layout extremely unreasonable.
The most important thing is,
Throughout the ages,
Whenever we encounter foreign enemies or rebellion,
Have you ever seen a few people who really relied on guarding the palace gates to keep them safe?
At this point, people's hearts are scattered, and no matter how good the palace wall is, it is useless.
"defense!"
Ji Chengfeng ordered,
The spearmen among his subordinates immediately stepped forward to form a formation.
The sword-bearer and the shield-bearer come last,
The last head,
It's a crossbowman.
In addition, there were soldiers on the palace wall who also started to be vigilant.
But this kind of battle did not put any pressure on the knights behind Zheng Houye.
An expert will know if it is there after taking a quick look at it.
A tiger will not become overly nervous because of a group of cats showing their teeth and claws;
In fact, many knights still had smiles on their faces, but they really didn't take it seriously.
They had all rushed through the phalanx of Da Chu's infantry, so how could they be afraid of the scene in front of them?
even,
Many knights were eager to give it a try. They just waited for their marquis to give the order. There was no need to deliberately assign commands. They had their own rear troops to mount and shoot to suppress the palace walls, their own front troops to squeeze the opponent's army with their iron hoofs, and their own middle troops. Attack them directly without fear of death!
These things are all imprinted in the bones and honed step by step in actual combat.
Put up flower shelves,
Do you really think they are ordinary people on the street?
As for what it means to launch an attack on the Beijing camp guarding the palace gate and launch an attack on the palace, they are not clear about it, but it doesn't matter.
Among them, many knights actually had red eyes, shedding tears and breaking their hearts over the death of Emperor Yan;
But on the battlefield, Paoze died in battle and continued to charge. He had more experience, and he knew better what it means to be able to take it up and let it go.
These are the soldiers brought out by Lao Tian.
This,
This was also the reason why he, Marquis Zheng, dared to dream about Dong Zhuo on his way out of the city last time.
but,
Marquis Zheng did not hesitate to directly order the charge.
Instead, he took out the imperial edict,
He intends to convince people with virtue.
He cleared his throat,
Opened the edict,
then,
stunned for a moment.
The imperial edict was completely blank, except for the jade seal where the seal should be used.
"..." Zheng Fan.
I fuck you uncle!
Marquis Zheng immediately turned to look at Eunuch Qu, who was accompanying him as he mobilized troops, and found that Eunuch Qu was responding to him with a polite and gentle smile.
this moment,
Even someone as smart as Mr. Zheng is a little confused.
Am I now a loyal and loyal person of the Great Yan Dynasty or a treacherous minister and traitor?
What the hell is this damn imperial edict with a blank seal! ! !
What is the difference between this thing and the big carrot seal that I gave to the eldest prince?
then,
Did Ji Laoliu win, lose, or get clicked?
Mr. Zheng, who has always liked to watch the fire from the other side and gain insight into all the feelings, now really had the vague intuitive feeling of being in this mountain.
Ji Chengfeng, who was on the opposite side, naturally recognized Ping Xihou.
It's hard not to recognize them. The two princes live in a simple way, and now the only one who can ride Pixiu in the city, except Ping Xihou, is his eldest brother.
But Ji Chengfeng hesitated and did not dare to come out and ask questions.
He was worried that after he came out, he would be cut down by Ping Xihou with a knife. Then Ping Xihou waved his hand and the army entered the city.
But at the same time,
He was also worried that Ping Xihou would directly choose to attack by force.
Because since Ping Xihou has led the troops in, he should be helping the Sixth Brother if nothing else. He, Ji Chengfeng, can be considered half of the Sixth Brother after all, right?
His father has passed away. Which brother should be the emperor and should he worry about it?Anyway, if he persists and dies here, the throne cannot be his.
Therefore, if Ji Chengfeng goes out now, he is afraid of being chopped down by a knife, but if he stands still, he is afraid of being trampled by horse hooves. It is really a dilemma.
And at this moment,
The carriage finally arrived at the palace gate.
Driver,
This is Eunuch Wei,
Sitting next to him was Lu Bing.
Lu Bing got off the carriage first, walked to Lord Zheng, saluted first, and then said:
"Marquis Pingxi, Your Majesty, please come over and see me."
Lord Zheng rode Pixiu and leaned over.
At this moment, he was not afraid of being killed with a knife, because there was no need to take off his pants and fart. He insisted on waiting for him to come with his troops and horses before killing him, which would add variables in vain.
On the carriage, Eunuch Wei, who was holding the reins, gave him the same warm smile as always.
Lord Zheng also nodded in response;
Eunuch Wei looked away, with a bit of sadness and regret on his face.
immediately,
Lord Zheng's Pixiu came to the carriage window.
Lord Zheng, who was sitting on the Pixiu, gently knocked on the window with the Emperor's Sword.
The window was opened from the inside,
Ji Chengjue's face was revealed,
Ji Chengjue looked at Lord Zheng outside the carriage and said:
"Bitch, I became the emperor."
Lord Zheng nodded, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Road:
"Okay, beast."
