The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

Niaz panicked, and when he heard the sound of the city breaking down, he was at a loss for a moment.

"What to do, what to do," muttered a few times, Niaz gritted his teeth, turned and ran into the house.

"Reheman, you hide first, unless your father calls you, don't make a sound, I will go to the palace to see your uncle," Niaz quickly hid Reheman in a pile of straw in the cellar.

"Dad, is there any danger?" Reheman's eyes were red. She knew that there was a lot of chaos outside, and Niaz might not come if he went out.

"No, no, nothing will happen," Niaz kissed his daughter's forehead, he covered Rehman with straw, and then staggered towards the palace.

Passing through several alleys along the way, Niya soldiers were seen fighting with the enemy at the entrances of several streets. For a while, corpses piled up like mountains in the narrow alleys, and the stalemate was hard to tell.

Niaz moved his slightly fat body quickly, turned a few safe alleys where there was no fighting, and then walked to the palace in a tortuous way.

At this moment, dozens of ministers were bustling in the hall of the royal palace. Most of the civil servants looked terrified, and some even collapsed on the ground, muttering to themselves as if they had got a demon, and some even cried. Some military generals, with serious expressions, all entered and exited the palace to report matters in a hurry. It seemed that this was an extremely critical moment.

"It seems that the Western Turks can't wait any longer. There are 10,000+ Tuyuhun troops stationed and besieged outside. The desert outside the city of Niya is unobstructed. The enemy is easy to chase and kill. Even if we break out of the encirclement, we will die sooner," A civil official hugged a stone pillar and desperately knocked his forehead against the stone wall until his head was covered with blood. It was said that his muttering voice was not too loud, which just happened to permeate the decadent and pessimistic atmosphere of the palace. Everyone is even more desperate.

"Except for surrender..." the civil official holding the stone pillar stumbled and said half of the sentence. He looked around. This sentence attracted the attention of many colleagues. .

"Surrender, all of you ministers who are greedy for life and afraid of death, don't you have a trace of dignity as a Niya?" After being stabbed and seriously injured, the doctor carried him to the temporary shelter in the main hall to recuperate. The middle-aged military general lying on the straw mat seemed very disdainful when he heard the timid whispers of the surrounding civil servants.

"What are you talking about? Aren't you afraid of death? Hmph," the minister holding the stone pillar has always been arrogant, but now seeing a little school lieutenant talking about him in such a mocking tone, the civil servant immediately got up and pointed his fingers angrily. Pointing at the general.

"Hey, coward, serving the country, even if you die, you will be honored, why should you die if you are a real man," the military general lay on the mat and spat contemptuously.

"What, okay, you ask the ministers present, who wants to die, is almost beaten to the door by the brutal Tuyuhun enemy outside, and still thinks about damn patriotism, do you think you are Allah, you Is it so noble? The VIII’s brutality has been accumulated for a long time. This minister only reluctantly served the VIII for more than ten years because of the kindness of the late emperor. But what disaster did he bring to our country? Ah, damn Tuyuhun people,"

The minister looked like a dog whose tail had been stepped on. He looked around anxiously and yelled: "Comrades, come and judge."

"Bastard,,, Zha Hemu, you miss the great late Emperor VII so much, so let you go and accompany him first," the general was furious, he endured the severe pain from his abdominal wound, jumped up and threw himself on the ground. When they got to the civil servant, the two wrestled on the floor.

"Don't fight, don't fight," this is a colleague who has seen up and down for many years, and now he is facing a crisis. Instead of uniting to tide over the adversity, the internal fight broke out first, and the ministers around the hall stepped forward to dissuade them.

"Die, drink," said the general, who was tall and strong, and to this skinny old man who was usually pampered and pampered, he was not at the same level at all.

"I'll strangle you, rebellious minister, I'll pinch, pinch," the general was furious, he wrapped his arms around the neck of the old civil servant and strangled desperately, but no matter how his colleagues around him tried to persuade him, his face turned red when he was thrown to the ground by the general and pinched , the civil servant with a painful expression didn't have the slightest chance to resist.

"Ailigu, if you have the ability to strangle this old man, hehe," the old man was not polite, he was stubborn and freed his hand to strangle the general, but seeing that his strength was at a disadvantage, he slammed his forehead on the general's forehead in a hurry.

"Zha Hemu, earlier you encouraged the king to attack the capital of Tuyuhun... Ahem, you are the most active member. The civil servants in the rear are clever and instigated the king to rob the money of other countries and enjoy it, but let countless soldiers go to the front line Throwing your head and blood, now that a catastrophe is imminent, and you have blamed the king for your fault, you will be angry if you see it, and you will be strangled to death," the general blushed, his eyes widened with copper bells, He wished he could strangle this nasty villain to death in one breath.

"General, Your Majesty has orders, please be merciful." While the two courtiers were rolling the carpet, four soldiers hurried out from the bedroom next door to dissuade the general, and carried the general on his shoulders to a secluded room to recuperate.

It turned out that the commotion in the council hall had disturbed the Eighth Emperor in the bedroom next door, and he could clearly hear the content of the bickering and scolding between the two courtiers just now.

But what stunned all the courtiers was that the performance of the two courtiers at the critical moment did not anger His Majesty VIII, who has always been iron-blooded and violent. Instead, he sent guards to persuade him to fight. It's going to be divided into five horses.

Just at the end of a funny farce of courtiers fighting, Niaz hurried past the Senate Hall. He looked coldly at the messy and chaotic scene in the hall, and then stepped into the bedroom.

"You have seen the chaos in the hall, Niaz, the kingdom is now on the verge of life and death," said the eighth king, whose face was even paler than the day before yesterday's visit, and even his lips were bloodless, lying on the bed with a velvet quilt It was tightly covered, only one head was exposed, and he said slowly with his eyes closed.

"Brother Wang, if Niya is destroyed, I will commit suicide without hesitation," Niaz said solemnly.

"That's right, it's a pity... my brother's wish can't be fulfilled," VIII murmured with a faint smile, his voice seemed so old and desolate, but Niaz couldn't hear it clearly.

"Kill," the eldest prince Nilih roared. He took the lead with a long sword and led a small spear soldier to block the enemies at the entrance of the main street.

He quickly raised his shield to block, and Nilich slammed into an enemy on the left with the shield. He pulled the sword horizontally with his right hand, stabbed, and tore the enemy's chest. A few scarlet sprays splashed on his twisted and furious face. blood spots.

There are a total of 5 streets in the main city, and [-] Doniya soldiers in the city are assigned to each street. The intensity of the street fighting is disgusting. There are broken arms and legs everywhere. The blood splattered on the street walls is shocking. Hiding in the house and shivering, the unlucky civilians were immediately massacred by the Tuyuhun enemies who broke in. The reason was that the Tuyuhun King Kerimu's order to massacre the city clearly stated that an eye for an eye.

"Report, the east city gate fell, and all 3000 people under Captain Zuo's command were killed. Captain Zuo single-handedly rushed into the enemy's line and died a heroic sacrifice. His body was pierced by random arrows from the enemy.

"Report, the west city gate fell, and the right captain had no face to see His Majesty, and died on the city wall. The general's head was brought over by his own soldiers, and the remaining [-] soldiers under his command retreated to the palace to shrink the line of defense,"

"Report, both the north and south city gates were captured, with a total of more than [-] casualties. The upper captain and the Chinese captain are busy organizing routs to form an organization and prepare to retreat to the lane defense,"

The messengers rushed into the bedroom one by one, and the news of the loud report spread throughout the palace, and every word beat the tense hearts of everyone, who were fragile and about to collapse.

After half an hour.

"Report, the king is not well. The two captains organized more than 3 troops to deploy on the streets. The 56 lines of defense have been breached by the enemy for more than [-] lines. Twelve streets are almost lost. The enemy's footsteps are only as far as the palace. There are more than a hundred steps, and the eldest prince is seriously injured and retired to the second line of command," the orderly stumbled and rolled all the way into the bedroom, the panicked orderly cried out, and had already lost his previous composure.

"Niaz, it's almost time. Since the city is irreparable, why not drink a glass of fine wine with my brother, and then both die in the country to meet our ancestors."

Looking at his tearful younger brother, VIII laboriously raised his finger to point to a jug of wine on the desk beside the bed. There were two daggers placed next to the jug. It seemed that VIII had already prepared it.

"Yes, Brother Wang," Niaz said. After hearing the news that the enemy army was getting closer, his originally nervous and anxious heart gradually calmed down, as if relieved.

"Let the ruined city of Niya be the tomb of the Niya royal family, it's time to end, cheers"

Niaz suddenly felt his blood boil, he was about to drink the wine with his head up, but VIII stopped him slowly and said: "Niaz, brother's arm is weak and weak, help me to drink it down,"

"Yes, okay," Niaz walked up to VIII in a daze, and he carefully brought the wine glass to the edge of VIII's lips.

"By the way, Niaz, you said that the people of Niya would be happy if they were handed over to you...hehe." With tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, VIII smiled lightly and sipped the wine on his lips.

Niaz's pupils constricted suddenly, and tears slowly flowed down his face.

"Bang Dang," a sound.

"Brother Wang..." whispered softly, Niaz threw himself on the edge of the bed, choked up and couldn't speak, the face of VIII froze before his death, a trace of black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"King, rest in peace," a black shadow quietly flashed out from the depths of the dim palace, and a mysterious man in a black suit and a black scarf on his face was kneeling beside him, so that the appearance of a ghost made people feel sad Niaz hadn't noticed before,
