country

Seeing that the overall situation has been settled, Li Wu finally showed a strange smile on his face, and waved his hands: "Put them in prison, and then hand them over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial. Hehe, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is too busy right now, so there is no time to interrogate them."

Taiji Camp Yu Linwei agreed, and then he wanted to take Gong Yang and Yue with him.

Suddenly, I heard a voice that said lightly: "Vice President Li, you are from the Taiji camp. It's a little inappropriate to come to my Fenghuo camp to arrest people!" Although the voice was flat, it brought infinite power to Fenghuo camp. , I heard all the soldiers of the Fenghuo Camp shouting loudly: "Vice President Xue, Vice President Xue, Vice President Xue...!" All the hundreds of guards nearby raised their arms and shouted.

In the light of the fire, I saw Yiqi approaching slowly. Although the rider on the horse was wearing light clothes, he had a strong aura, and his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling gave people incomparable fear.

While Gongyangyue and Zhao Tianda showed surprise on their faces, Li Wu's face instantly became extremely ugly, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he looked at Xue Poye who was slowly approaching in amazement, but he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Don't let them go!" Xue Poye walked closer, looking sharply at the Habayashi of the Taiji Camp who bound the two captains, the guards of the Habayashi saw Xue Poye's sharp gaze, and felt chills in their hearts , slowly retreated.

The Habayashi guards of the Fenghuo camp were all extremely happy. Seeing the return of the vice general guard, everyone was full of fighting spirit, and unexpectedly once again surrounded the habayashi squad of the Taiji camp, including Li Wu.

Li Wu finally came back to his senses, and said with a fake smile: "It turns out that Vice President Xue is back. Wei is back, so it's all up to Vice President Xue to deal with it himself."

Xue Poye was riding on the horse, and he didn't seem to intend to dismount. He held the whip tightly in his hand, and said indifferently: "Creating trouble? Vice President Li, my subordinates have always been very disciplined. They only know how to serve the country loyally and protect the safety of the palace." , What you said about committing chaos, but you don’t know where to start? In this way, as long as Vice President Li speaks the truth, I will naturally punish him severely. Just talk and go.”

Li Wu's face turned cold, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he said calmly on the surface: "I see that President Teng and Vice President Xue are not in the Habayashi Camp, and it is an extraordinary time, so I want to take care of the Fenghuo Camp temporarily." , so that the three battalions of Habayashi can work together to protect the palace together."

"This is a good thing." Xue Poye rubbed his nose and said, "Can my subordinates stop me?"

Li Wu was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed with joy, he nodded and said: "It turns out that Vice President Xue also thinks the same way, haha, it's really a hero who sees the same thing, yes, this is a good thing, but the two of your subordinates The name is Captain, but he is obstructed in every way, and he has repeatedly spoken disrespectful words to this official, what is it if he is not committing trouble?"

Xue Poye said "Oh", with a weird smile on his face, and said: "Help in every possible way? Oh, by the way, Deputy General Guard Li, can you take out the imperial edict or the order of the general guard? If you have If they dare to obstruct any of these two things, I will not let them go alone, and I will kill them here myself."

Li Wu sneered and said: "The Holy Majesty passed away, General Teng Wei was seriously ill, but I don't have those two things."

"Li Wu!" Xue Poye yelled sharply, pointed his whip at Li Wu, and said in a cold voice, "You have neither the imperial edict nor the order of the general guard, so you want to overstep your authority and come to my Fenghuo camp to take over the military power, and you are slandering me even more. What are your intentions for your subordinates to commit chaos?"

Holding steel knives, hundreds of Yulin in Fenghuo camp gradually approached, compressing Li Wu and others into a very small circle, and some people had already stepped forward to untie the ropes that were tied to Gongyangyue and Zhao Tianda.

Li Wu didn't expect Xue Poye to appear at such a critical moment. The plan to seize power that was already going smoothly was about to succeed. When Xue Poye was killed in the wild, everything came to naught, and he was angry, but the wind and fire There are many people in the camp, and it seems that everyone wants to tear themselves apart, so they can't help but feel a little guilty, and pretend to be calm: "The soldiers are approaching the city, and the matter is urgent, and Vice President Xue should understand."

"Even if you know that soldiers are coming to the city, you don't lead them to guard the palace, but you are fighting for power here, Deputy Chief Guard Li, you really have a lot of free time." Xue Poye sneered: "Come here, first please Li Vice President Wei and the others went down to drink tea, and after the incident, they will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial, and now...hehe, the Ministry of Criminal Justice may not be free right now."

This is what Li Wu said just now, but now it comes out of Xue Poye's mouth, full of irony.

Zhao Tianda was holding back his stomach full of anger, when Xue Poye gave an order, a fucking guy kicked a Tai Chi Yulin's knee, the Yulin guard gritted his teeth, couldn't bear the pain, and knelt down On the ground, two Fenghuo Yulin rushed up beside him and pushed them to the ground. Other rainforests rushed to take down all the people in the Taiji camp, but they heard Li Wu loudly: "Stop!" He was full of anger, This sudden drink shocked everyone.

But the Habayashi Guards are not timid people. Although they paused for a while, Li Wu's influence in Fenghuo Camp is almost zero. Even if he has influence, it is also negative, so no one pays attention to his "hands-on". Still got two people.

Xue Poye raised his hand and said loudly: "Brothers, wait a moment and see what Vice President Li has to say!"

Li Wu's face was gloomy, looking at Xue Poye who was sitting majestically on the horse, he said slowly: "Vice President Xue, can you take a step to speak."

"Take a step to speak?" Xue Poye said with a smile: "The affairs of the world, the people of the world, and the words of the world, why can't we speak clearly?"

Li Wu said indifferently: "I really can't say clearly what I want to say to Vice President Xue."

Although Xue Poye knew that Li Wu was one of the three deputy general guards of Yulin, and his skills were very hard, but he was not afraid at all. He was completely confident that he could defeat Li Wu in a one-on-one situation, slightly After pondering, he got off his horse and said: "Vice Chief Wei Li is so mysterious, I am very curious, please!" He walked to a slightly secluded place next to him.

Li Wu walked over slowly, and actually said straight to the point: "Vice President Xue, do you want to be rich, rich, high-ranking, rich and rich, or die without a place to die?"

Xue Poye touched his nose, and said calmly: "What does Vice President Li want to say?"

"If you want to die without a burial place, just detain us." Li Wu said: "Just wait until the fourth prince breaks through the capital city, and you should understand what will happen to you even if I don't tell you."

"Fourth Prince... So Vice President Li belongs to the Fourth Prince!" Xue Poye said with a gesture of sudden realization.

Li Wu said proudly: "That's right, now that things have happened, I can already admit that I belong to the Fourth Prince."

Xue Poye rubbed his nose, and deliberately said strangely: "As far as I know, our Habayashi Camp is completely under the direct control of the Imperial Guard, and it is extremely difficult for outside forces to get in, and the Holy One most taboos the officials of the Habayashi Camp How did Vice President Li get handed over to the Fourth Prince even if there are any external forces involved?"

Li Wu doesn't seem to shy away from explaining this situation, but his eyes are full of pride: "When the sage was in trouble, the fourth prince came to me secretly, what he meant... Hehe, in short, our Yulin Camp It is the imperial guards who are loyal to the royal family, and the fourth prince is also a member of the royal family, so there is nothing wrong with being loyal to the fourth prince...!"

Xue Poye sighed, and said: "The Holy Majesty has returned to heaven, and Vice President Li wants to seek a new backer, which seems to be correct. But the crown prince is the orthodox heir of Da Chu, and Vice President Li is seeking refuge with the Fourth Prince, right? Are you on the wrong team?"

"Prince?" Vice President Li made no secret of his disdain for the prince: "He wanted to buy me with 100 taels of gold at the beginning. I'm so small. Could it be that I was only worth 100 taels of gold? I offended him, if he ascends the throne as a great treasure, I will not have such a good life for Liwu."

"It turns out that the crown prince gave less." Xue Poye understood: "The crown prince should have given out 1000 taels of gold at that time."

Li Wu was a little embarrassed, but this kind of embarrassment was only a matter of a second, and he went away in an instant, and slightly approached: "As far as I know, Vice President Xue and the prince seem to have some misunderstandings. I thought about it, once the crown prince gains power, you may be in great trouble. I think that no one in the civil and military courts will have trouble with the new emperor because of the mere Vice President of Habayashi."

Xue Poye laughed and said, "What Vice President Li said seems to make sense."

Li Wu even approached and said: "Vice President Xue, it is better to take the initiative to attack like this, sitting on the sidelines. The so-called good birds choose trees and virtuous ministers meet the wise master and assist them. The four princes understand righteousness and unparalleled benevolence. As long as Vice President Xue Wei voted under the fourth prince's family, so there is no guarantee of prosperity and wealth in the future."

Xue Poye deliberately sighed, shook his head and said, "Fourth Prince... Hey, there may be some misunderstanding between me and Fourth Prince."

"Vice President Xue, don't worry." Li Wu patted his chest and said, "You and I belong to the Yulin Camp. Li Wu will come forward and explain the misunderstanding between you and the Fourth Prince."

Xue Poye chuckled and said: "It seems that Vice President Li really voted for the fourth prince." After a pause, he frowned and said, "But I don't know that President Teng suddenly fell seriously ill, and he has something to do with Vice President Li. Doesn't matter?"

Li Wu also frowned, pondered for a while, and finally said: "General Guard Teng knew my identity, so he had to be sick. He was poisoned, but he couldn't die. Wait until the Fourth Prince's army enters the city, and then we will try again. he."

Xue Poye sighed: "General Guard Teng is smart and capable, but he is also in the hands of Deputy General Guard Li. Deputy General Guard Li is really powerful."

Li Wu raised his head to look at the sky, with a slight look of anxiety on his face, and asked: "Vice President Xue, Li Wu has been very frank with you, but he wants to do something big with you. As for how to choose, It depends on what you mean. If Vice President Xue really wants to vote for the Fourth Prince, he must make a decision quickly, as you and I still have important things to do."

"What's the big deal?"

Li Wu hesitated, but did not answer right away.

Xue Poye smiled and said, "Vice President Li, if you want to convince me, you have to show your sincerity."

"Vice President Xue, what do you mean, are you willing to take refuge with the Fourth Prince?"

Xue Poye said indifferently: "At least let me know if your so-called big event is worth my risk. Now the fourth prince is indeed powerful, but the prince is the orthodox in the world. Before the fourth prince has not really succeeded, he can only be considered a ...the rebels!"

Li Wu thought for a while, looked back at the subordinates controlled by Fenghuoying, and understood in his heart that at this time, he must either persuade Xue Poye to become his ally, and then complete the important task entrusted by the fourth prince, or become Xue Poye. prisoner of the ranks.

Once the task entrusted by the fourth prince is not completed, after the rebel army captures the capital city, the eccentric fourth prince will definitely take the responsibility for the loss of soldiers and generals on his own head. Persuade Xue Poye to join hands.

He really regrets it now. If he had known that Xue Poye would appear suddenly, he wouldn't just bring a few people to Fenghuo Camp to seize power if he was killed. What seemed to be a heroic move before now has become like a bear breaking a stick. stupid thing.

"Combine one army, control the imperial palace, cooperate internally and externally, and welcome the fourth prince!" After a long time, Li Wu said every word clearly.

Xue Poye stared at Li Wu, and said in a cold voice: "It turns out that Vice President Li wants to control the palace and hold the queen mother and prince hostage?"

"At an extraordinary time, do extraordinary things!" Li Wu said coldly, stretched out his hand, and said, "Would you like to do it?"

"The job of our Yulinying is to protect the palace, the queen mother, and the crown prince, but Vice President Li wants to do the opposite. This...hehe, is it still Yulinying?" Xue Poye smiled but was not a smile. With the hand out, the palm suddenly changed into fingers, which is exactly the ecstasy fingering technique.

Li Wu didn't expect that Xue Poye would change his face when he said that he would change his face. Under normal circumstances, although his ability may not be stronger than Xue Poye's, he still has the ability to deal with hundreds of moves. It's just that Xue Poye caught him by surprise, and he was so fast. It was astonishing, and the fingering that protruded from the top was extremely strange, and a burst of energy had penetrated into Li Wu's left shoulder. Li Wu only felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder, and knew that he had found Xue Poye's way. Pulled out the waist knife, but heard a "choke", before his hand touched the handle of the knife, Xue Poye pointed out that the rope of the knife was broken, and the big knife fell to the ground.

Li Wu was startled and angry. From today's point of view, if he missed a move, he would lose everything. He gritted his teeth and wanted to fight. Although it was the end of the crossbow, if he was lucky enough to take down Xue Po at this time Ye, with him as a threat, there may be a possibility to change the situation.

It's just that this extravagant hope soon turned into disappointment.

Xue Poye's ecstasy fingering technique is unpredictable, between the false and the real, with fierce vigor, and quickly sealed more than ten acupuncture points of Li Wu, the dignified deputy chief guard of the Taiji camp, and the deputy chief guard of the Fenghuo camp Under the sudden attack, he was instantly restrained.

The officers and soldiers of the Fenghuo camp suddenly cheered loudly, and the sound spread far away. Everyone felt admiration for Xue Poye. After all, there were not many people who could restrain Li Wu in an instant, even if it was by surprise. able to do.

Xue Poye looked at Li Wu who was collapsed on the ground, sighed, shook his head and said: "If you want to rebel, Vice President Li has the guts, but I, Xue Poye, don't. Xue Poye is an honest man, and he can't do big things. .It's just...It's just that Vice President Li dared to come to Fenghuo Camp to seize power and instigate rebellion. I don't know if you are too brave or...too stupid!"

Li Wu's face was livid, but there was deep fear in his eyes, even inexplicable begging for mercy.

Xue Poye naturally ignored this mixed expression, walked up to Zhao Tianda, waved his hand and said: "Vice President Li is not feeling well, take him and his subordinates down to have a good rest." After a pause, staring at Zhao Tianda, he said seriously : "Let the brothers protect it. After the rebel army is put down, Mr. Teng will come out to talk to Vice President Li."

Although Zhao Tianda rammed straight, he understood Xue Poye's words. The so-called "rest" was just a temporary detention. With a wave of his hand, several Habayashi guards stepped forward to tie up Li Wu who was lying on the ground, and then The officers and soldiers of the Taiji Battalion, Li Wu and others were all taken into custody.

The soldiers of the Fenghuo Camp were all very happy, but Gong Yangyue frowned, stepped forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, Li Wu is the deputy general guard of the Taiji Camp, let's imprison him...will it offend the Taiji Camp?" mutiny?"

Xue Poye touched his nose, looked up at the dark night sky, there was not a single star, it seemed that the frightened stars did not dare to show their faces when the rebel soldiers approached the city.

"If the people from the Taiji camp don't come, I'll go!" Xue Poye said in a low voice, "They are the royal guards. Even if the sky falls, they will carry the fallen sky for the royal family. Captain Gongyang , Gather the soldiers and horses, transfer them to the palace, and order the nine gates of the palace to be strictly guarded, no one can come in or out."

Gong Yangyue immediately complied with the order and ordered Lieutenant Yubayashi to gather troops and horses and quickly march towards the palace.

"Call a few brothers to follow me to the Tai Chi camp." Xue Poye touched his nose and said, "There are still a thousand brothers there, and I will always order them to guard the palace."

"My lord!" Gong Yangyue exclaimed in surprise, "You...you want to go to the Tai Chi Camp?"

The deputy general guard of Tai Chi camp came to Fenghuo camp and was knocked down and imprisoned, but Xue Poye, the deputy general guard of Fenghuo camp, wanted to take only a few people to Tai Chi camp at this time, which was too crazy.

There are thousands of feather forests in the Taiji camp, once they know that their deputy general guard is controlled by Xue Poye, and see Xue Poye going, maybe they will tear Xue Poye to pieces.

"I was just saying that it was a bit stupid for Li Wu to come to Fenghuo Camp to seize power arrogantly, but... hehe, am I also stupid to go to Taiji Camp to reorganize the army instead?" Xue Poye smiled. : "Maybe it's really stupid, but if I don't go, maybe the brothers in the Taiji camp will be used by others... I always believe that the brothers in the third battalion of Habayashi are all soldiers loyal to the royal family!"

Gong Yangyue looked at Xue Poye suspiciously, his eyes gradually changed from doubt to admiration, and said: "My lord, I will accompany you to go with you."

"No." Xue Poye waved his hand and said, "You lead the troops to guard the palace, that's the big deal. If the Fourth Prince doesn't see any movement from Li Wu, I'm afraid he will attack the city ahead of time. There is a huge disparity in power, and the four gates of Kyoto may soon be breached, and our Habayashi Guard is the last barrier to protect the imperial court, so we must devote all our energy to the task of protecting the imperial palace."

Knowing that Xue Poye's words were reasonable, Gongyangyue gritted her teeth and said respectfully: "I obey my orders, my... my lord, take care!" Immediately, he ordered more than ten Yulin elites to follow Xue Poye, and together with Zhao Tianda, he led the Captain Habayashi of the Fenghuo camp dispatched troops to guard the palace.

At this time, Xue Poye had faintly heard the sound of war drums and horns outside the capital city!
