The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 423 Huge Gap

Hearing what Wanyan Sagai said, the special general knew that he had caused a lot of trouble this time, but in this situation, it was obvious that he had lost the last chance to kill Wanyan Sagai.

At this moment, there was a rush of horseshoes outside.

"The imperial decree has arrived!" From a distance, a Royal Forest Army shouted loudly.

A group of soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay. Facing this imperial decree, everyone present had different expressions on their faces.

Wanyan Sagai's face turned livid. In his opinion, it is absolutely impossible for the special general to come over to deal with him. It must be the decision of the special general alone. It must be Wanyan Liang's order, but there is no imperial edict, it is just a verbal order. .

Now that the special general is in trouble, under such circumstances, Wan Yanliang may directly order someone to send the imperial decree. If this is the case, what should he do?
Bigen brought all the people in front of the palace to help him. A large part of the reason why these people obeyed the order was that Wanyan Sagai said that the special general was passing on the false imperial decree, but if the real imperial decree has arrived now , he was a little unsure what else these people would do?After all, in this era, the monarchy is still supreme, and there should not be many people who have the courage to challenge the monarchy.

On the contrary, the special general was ecstatic in his heart at this time. He thought that he was at the end of his rope, but he did not expect the critical moment of the imperial decree to come. From this point of view, His Majesty is really supporting him.

The special general who was about to leave came back with great strides. With a victor's smile on his face, he said to Bigen: "Now the imperial decree has arrived, Bigen, what else can you do? Don't you mean Do you want to protest?"

Bi Gen's face was also a little ugly at this time, the excuse just now can no longer be used, if he still wants to continue to protect Wanyan Sakai, is it possible to rebel with Wanyan Sagai this time?

rebel?For Bigen, this word is really far away. He hasn't figured it out yet. Although he is the head of the front of the palace, it is true that the soldiers below are usually under his orders, but when the real one appeared He still had no idea how these soldiers would choose when there was a problem.

At this moment, everyone had their own thoughts in their hearts, and the messenger finally arrived long after everyone was looking forward to it.

"Quick...quick!" the special general said eagerly.

The guard held the imperial decree aloft. Hearing what the general said at this time, he hurriedly unfolded the imperial decree, and everyone knelt down to accept the decree.

"Follow the heavens, the emperor's decree said..." After the man finished reading the imperial decree, the expressions on the faces of the people changed drastically.

Te froze the happy expression on his originally smug face, while Wanyan Sagai and the others' serious faces were shocked.

"What, this is impossible!" The huge gap made it difficult for the special general to accept this result. He pulled the Imperial Forest Army who had read out the imperial decree over, and shouted sharply, "Did you make a mistake?"

"General... General, my officer... this officer is just following orders, and this officer didn't know the content of the imperial decree beforehand." The soldier stammered.

"Impossible, how could His Majesty let me go back." The special general gritted his teeth and said, "This group of people is clearly resisting the order. Your Majesty should issue an order to capture all of these people and put them in death row..."

"What? It's already at this time. General, are you still obsessed with your obsession? Do you still want to resist the edict?" At this time, the old censor Bendao came to the special general and said in a cold voice.

The special general gritted his teeth and stared at the Dao in front of him, feeling an urge to kill. If eyes could kill, the special general would have already torn the Dao into pieces by this time.

Bigen came to the special general and whispered to the special general: "General special, don't you think that His Majesty is giving you a step down at this time? Don't you think that in this situation, you alone can kill you?" Is it okay to lose the prime minister?"

Hearing what Bigen said, the special general opened his eyes wide in surprise. Thinking about it carefully at this moment, it seems that this is really the case. Anyway, at this time, the opportunity to kill Wanyan Sagai has already come. Lost, it seems that it is not a wise choice to continue to stalemate like this.

Taking a deep breath, the special general was finally freed from this huge psychological gap, and then coldly ordered the withdrawal of troops.

The imperial forest army's siege of the Prime Minister's Mansion was like a farce. It came suddenly, and the speed of leaving was also very abrupt, which made everyone present a little confused, but there were still sober people, like Wanyan Sachang, watching It was impossible for him not to feel uncomfortable with the corpse of the old housekeeper in front of him.

The old butler has been with Wanyan Sagai since he was a child. Although the relationship is not brothers, it is better than the relationship between brothers, even though he is just a servant.

"Uncle Shi, nephew is late!" Bigen came to Wanyan Sagai at this time, and said with some guilt: "If nephew had come earlier, the old butler would not have been murdered!"

Wanyan Sagai waved his hand, and said to Bi Gen: "I don't blame you for this matter, you came in time enough, this matter can only be said that I was too careless."

When Ben Dao came to Wanyan Sagai, the old fellow shook his head when he saw Wanyan Sagai, and said, "Sanlang, now..."

Wanyan Sagai nodded and said, "I understand what you want to say, so I will do as you say." These two are already old partners and have a tacit understanding with each other, so I just say After saying a word, Wanyan Sagai already understood the meaning.

"In the past two days, the Prime Minister's Mansion will hold a funeral, and all visitors will be declined." Wanyan Sagai said after ordering.

The funeral is just an excuse. Many people come to the funeral. This is a good excuse to gather their forces together. All those who can come should vote for themselves.

At this moment in the palace, Wan Yanliang raised a teacup and threw it on the general.

The special general felt the pain in his body, but he didn't dare to hide it, he could only endure it forcefully. In fact, he was also very wronged at this time in his heart.

He was clearly doing things according to Wan Yanliang's words. Although he didn't get it done, he couldn't blame himself for this matter.

"Say! Why are you going to Wanyan Sagai's mansion? Who gave you the order, and you dare to do something to that old fox? You..." Wanyan Liang pointed at the general's nose. An urge to draw a sword and chop this guy down.
