Chapter 159 The dark tide is surging
Chapter 159 The dark tide is surging
There is no first-hand news about the Evergreen Gang.
However, the affairs of the gang are still being transferred to other places in an orderly manner.
This afternoon, Liang Sheng found Xiao Yuzhuo.
He looked at Xiao Yuzhuo with an extraordinarily deep gaze, "What are your plans in the future, my lady? Are you going back to Wancheng?"
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback for a moment, "Of course I'm going back to Wancheng. What else?"
Liang Sheng was silent for a moment.
"What? Isn't shopkeeper Liang planning to return to Wancheng?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked back.
Liang Sheng shook his head quickly, "No, the villain will definitely follow the lady back to Wancheng. It's just... the lady has already met General Jing, and this time the lady came forward to help the general, and even saved the saint from danger. If the general Take this opportunity to plead with the Holy One..."
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted softly, "I can't trust the Holy One! He promised to give me a hectare of land outside Qujiang Pond, and he could take it back with a twist of his face! He promised to let Xiuyuan marry me again, and in a blink of an eye he married the Turkic princess... Such a treacherous person Little...uh..."
Is it disrespectful to say that the Holy Majesty is a villain?
Xiao Yuzhuo coughed softly, "Anyway, I don't believe him! It's better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. The alliance will take this opportunity to grow, and even if he wants to kill me, he has to weigh it. This is the real power of self-protection."
Liang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, he cupped his hands, "The lady said so, the villain understands, so let's make arrangements."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded.
There won't be a few days of delay here, and it's time for them to leave for Wancheng.
Liang Sheng was walking in the hallway, ready to arrange for the return journey.
But he saw a pretty girl jumping in from the corridor and blocking in front of him.
The innocent girl in the past now has a little more calmness on her body.
She hadn't practiced with Guan Sanye in vain these days, learned a lot, and the temperament of her face and body had subtly changed.
"Mr. Liang," she smiled slightly, "Mr. Liang just asked the lady about the itinerary. Is Mr. Liang anxious to go back to Wancheng by himself?"
Liang Sheng looked at the little girl in front of him, and pursed his lips, "It's been a long time since I left Wancheng, and I miss it a little."
Liu Lanxue frowned, and pouted her small mouth slightly, "Does Mr. Liang miss Wancheng, or is he in a hurry to go back and marry Sister Juxiang?"
Liang Sheng sighed helplessly, "What I said last time has reached that point, she would rather be alone for the rest of her life than marry me...I'm afraid I don't have that blessing..."
"Yes, I think Sister Juxiang really doesn't like you too! Don't force her!" Liu Lanxue immediately said eagerly, "Why would Sister Juxiang threaten people with kindness? She saved your life. Just remember to prepare a generous gift for her! I..."
She licked her lips, breath a little anxious.
"I will treat Sister Juxiang very well in the future! You don't have to marry her to repay your kindness! No girl wants someone to marry her just because of her kindness. The little lady wants to marry someone she likes, and also really likes her." Her people!"
After Liu Lanxue finished speaking, her little face turned red.
Seeing Liang Sheng staring at her, he looked at her silently.
She was anxious and angry, "You...why are you like this?"
She stomped her feet, jumped out of the corridor, glanced back at him, and ran away briskly.
Liang Sheng stood in the corridor, pulling the corners of his mouth helplessly.
Liu Lanxue was only in her teens, how could he not see her thoughts?
But he can't marry her...
He shook his head and sighed, was silent for a moment, and walked away.
Three days later, the head of the Evergreen Gang came here to get the news.
Jing Yannian rushed to the Shenwu Army, and directly beheaded several generals in the barracks who said in the barracks that "the former prince is the orthodox, and the current emperor is just a villain who seeks power and usurps the throne. He should help the prince defeat Zhaoling".
Sometimes, it really takes absolute force to hold the scene.
Those generals even teamed up to attack Jing Yannian.
But it is not his opponent at all.
Jing Yannian was drenched in blood, holding a long spear, and stood majestically in the barracks.
When all the soldiers saw him, it was as if the hearts of the soldiers turned to him like a tide in an instant.
He ordered that anyone who supports the abolition of the prince will be killed.
In the military camp, no one dared to say that the abolished prince is orthodox.
He led his army secretly bypassed Xianyang and went straight to Zhaoling.
The first prince might as well suddenly surround himself with reinforcements from behind.
He hadn't gotten any news before.
Although he knew that Jing Yannian broke through and went to the barracks, he never expected that he would come back alive, and he came so quickly!
"Then what's the result?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked hastily, "How many martial arts troops did General Jing lead? It must be a fierce battle with the former crown prince, right?"
The person who came back to report the letter said it vividly, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, "General Jing is leading the army in front, and the prince's soldiers immediately panicked when they saw that it was General Jing who rushed to the front with their guns." No matter how much the former crown prince encourages, it will be difficult to stop the trend of defeat!"
When Xiao Yuzhuo heard the words, he felt as if he was listening to a myth. Could it be that Jing Yannian is still the God of War in the army?
Was the enemy afraid when they saw him?
"On the battlefield, the first thing to look at is the momentum, and the second thing to look at is the armament! If the momentum is not as good as others, you will lose [-]% of the first! Otherwise, how can there be "one effort, then decline, and three exhaustion" What do you mean?" Seeing Xiao Yuzhuo's shocked expression, Guan Sanye rubbed his chin and explained.
He even regretted in his heart that if Jing Yannian was not a general or prince in the court.
How good would it be to be a deputy leader of his evergreen gang?
"And then?" Xiao Yuzhuo nodded and continued to ask.
"The first prince saw that the general situation was over, so he was able to bend and stretch, and immediately fled with less than [-] soldiers and horses. The northern mountain system includes Jiuyi Mountain, Qiaoshan Mountain, Huanglong Mountain, etc., dense forests are widely distributed, and the mountains are rugged and easy to hide. They didn't catch him either!" said the messenger.
Guan Sanye frowned and nodded.
Xiao Yuzhuo was also silent for a moment.
"How is Yu Niangzi's preparations? Since this is the result, should we leave Xianyang?" Guan Sanye asked.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded repeatedly, "What the third master said is that now is the time to leave. So as not to continue to confuse you."
"General Lan is chasing the first prince and his troops in the mountains. General Jing escorts the saint back to Chang'an. Maybe he will pass by Xianyang." After the reporter finished speaking, he retreated.
Both Xiao Yuzhuo and Guan Sanye ordered people to pack up and get ready to leave at any time.
Taking advantage of the night, Jing Yannian quietly came to the head of the Evergreen Gang again.
Maybe it's because he has a particularly good memory for the terrain. After asking for help that night, the terrain pattern of the chief rudder of the Evergreen Gang seemed to be imprinted in his mind.
He sneaked in without much effort.
When he found Xiao Yuzhuo's courtyard, the guards in the courtyard were startled.
"Yuyu," he called her outside, as if he was afraid of frightening her, instead of rushing in, "I came to see you alone."
Xiao Yuzhuo asked Jing Yannian to come in.
He really came alone, without bringing anyone with him.
"Are you planning to elope with me?" Xiao Yuzhuo laughed.
Jing Yannian's face darkened, "I'm escorting the saint back to Chang'an, and the saint is now staying in the Northwest Palace."
Xiao Yuzhuo let out a cry.
But Jing Yannian emphasized: "Do you know the Northwest Palace?"
Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head.
"The Northwest Palace was originally the Xianyang Palace. It was built in the pre-Qin period. It stretched far and wide, majestic and magnificent! But it was burned down by Xiang Yu later." Jing Yannian looked at Xiao Yuzhuo with heavy eyes, "I said the former emperor It is not false to say that the great construction was done. The first emperor rebuilt the Northwest Palace on the original site of the pre-Qin Dynasty, hoping to reproduce the magnificence of the West Palace in Xianyang. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang defeated Qin because of the extravagance of the Qin emperor! The first emperor did not learn the lesson, Just have fun."
"Okay, my uncle is dead, so don't poke him in the back, and I didn't say I don't believe you?" Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at him.
Jing Yanqing coughed, "The construction of the Northwest Palace stopped completely after the current Holy Majesty ascended the throne. The Holy Majesty used the money for building the Northwest Palace to rebuild canals and build dams to protect the people from drought and flood... "
Xiao Yuzhuo curled his lips and looked at Jing Yannian with a smile.
Her eyes were too clear, and the candlelight shone in her eyes, making him unable to speak for a while.
"I understand, the current Holy Majesty is in your eyes, he is a Mingjun, a person worthy of your allegiance." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, "You will not leave the Holy Majesty now, you still want to be your general, for the Holy Majesty Escort."
"Yuyu, can you stay?" Jing Yannian said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty thinks that I have made great contributions to saving you, and that the League has contributed a lot. I will definitely rectify your name and let you..."
"No need." Xiao Yuzhuo's voice instantly cooled down. Although she still had a smile on her face, there was only a hint of coldness in her voice, "You don't need to be kind enough to spare my life. I don't care about the wealth and splendor of Chang'an. He Thinking about the merits of the alliance, what can you give me? Give me a little life? Don't pursue the crime of deceiving the emperor that I didn't die?"
Jing Yannian's face tensed, "Yuyu..."
"Your Majesty loves you so much, so you can't bear him." Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "I don't have such deep friendship with him. I thought you said he was your father, so I agreed that the alliance will help you. Don't you You misunderstood that I was surrendering to the Holy One and begging for mercy?"
"Yuyu, why are you doing this?" Jing Yannian asked with a frown.
"Why bother?" Xiao Yuzhuo laughed, "If I hadn't struggled to survive, I would have been run over to death long ago. The Holy Majesty would have drowned me by spitting. I don't care who is the emperor, I just want to live a good life. He’s not dead, I heard that the Prince of Yue has raised his troops and is coming to Chang’an to ‘save the Holy Majesty and suppress the rebels’. The Holy Majesty has not yet won a complete victory, why is General Jing so anxious to ask me to surrender?”
Jing Yannian closed his eyes, let out a long breath, and said weakly: "Yuyu, why do you have to misinterpret my words, I just hope that we can be together well and never have to be separated again."
Xiao Yuzhuo laughed softly, "It's not that I want to misinterpret your words, you have a position, and I have no position in this fight. I promised Chong Wu that I would go back before his birthday and spend his two-year-old birthday with him It's already pitiful enough that his father is not by his side every day, I can't let him lose his mother."
Chen Mo was rendered in Jing Yannian's eyes, which became dark for a moment.
"You said you want to be together? Why don't you give up the title and leave Xianyang with me now?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked.
Jing Yannian's face was stiff, "I'm not reluctant to be an official, but you also said that the abolished prince fled and the King of Yue's army came to Chang'an. Can I leave the Holy Majesty now and leave with only my personal safety in mind?"
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "Yeah, everyone has to face choices. How can you have your cake and eat it too?"
Jing Yannian suddenly stepped forward to hold her hand.
As the two got closer, Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly realized that Jing Yannian, who was so strong and so conceited, had tears in his eyes.
She forced him, too hard?
"The Holy Majesty wanted to announce my life experience to the world, and wanted to make me the crown prince, but I refused." Jing Yannian said in a deep voice, "I don't want the crown prince, I just want to marry you again."
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed, and shook Jing Yannian's hand, "That's good, I won't force you, and you don't force me either. I don't want you to go back to Chang'an now, you go to quell the riot for your father for the Holy Lord, and I will go back to Wan Cheng accompany Chongwu to celebrate his second birthday. After the war is over, how about we talk about our own plans?"
Jing Yannian took a deep look at her and was silent for a moment. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and said slowly, "What you said seems to be the best way. Many times you can't have both."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, "I and Chongwu will wait for you."
Her voice was very soft, but he heard it clearly.
He suddenly stepped forward to hug her, and rubbed her tightly into his arms, as if he wanted to hold her like this forever.
"Lady, it's the third watch. Third Master Guan is ready to leave." The servant girl whispered outside.
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed softly in Jing Yannian's arms, "We plan to go back to Wancheng first, and if Wancheng is also affected, we will go south."
Jing Yannian was stunned for a moment, "I force you to come back to Chang'an with me now, am I too conceited? I am confident that I can protect your mother and child, and keep Chang'an safe?"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and said, "Maybe it's because I'm too reserved and suspicious, so Chang'an is the best. You have to be careful."
Jing Yannian nodded heavily.
There was a faint urging voice outside.
Jing Yannian held her hand tightly, and his gaze fell on her face, "You must be careful along the way! Always cherish yourself and don't try to be brave!"
Xiao Yuzhuo whispered: "I know."
Jing Yannian reluctantly let go of his hand.
His eyes followed her all the time.
She went outside the door, looked back and smiled at him.
The light from the candles in the porch reflected on her face, so soft, so beautiful...
It seems that she has never been so strong that he, a majestic man, feels tired, as if she has never been so stubborn that he just wants to cut off her plump wings, and only hold her in his arms to care for her...
She was supported by the servant girl to leave the corridor and walk through the courtyard.
As she walked away step by step, her figure gradually blurred in his sight until she disappeared...
Jing Yannian clenched his hands into fists and stood stiff for a moment.
The warmth of holding her just now seemed to be stagnant in his chest.
When Xiao Yuzhuo was about to get into the carriage, he saw someone standing beside the carriage.
In the middle of the night, the face could not be seen clearly, and the man stood under the shadow of the tree again.
She squinted her eyes for a moment, "Liao Suwei?"
The man under the shadow of the tree responded muffledly.
"Aren't you leaving?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked.
Only then did Liao Suwei take a step forward, the moonlight fell on him, making his figure look cold and lonely.
He cupped his hands and said, "Chang'an is still uncertain, the villain can't leave."
Xiao Yuzhuo thought of the reason why Jing Yannian refused to leave, and took another deep look at Liao Changsheng, "You can make your own decision, others will force you to do so, even if you think about it, it will cause you pain."
"Thank you, lady." Liao Suwei said in a deep voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo stepped into the carriage.
But she saw two maids beside her, Zhu Xiang and Mei Xiang, still standing outside the carriage.
Mei Xiang looked at Zhu Xiang and tugged at her sleeve.
Zhuxiang looked at Liao Changsheng fixedly, silently.
A group of carriages and horses have been packed, and someone in the front will check to see if the rear is ready, and they are about to set off when they are ready.
Mei Xiang then climbed into the carriage, "Zhu Xiang, hurry up!"
Zhuxiang looked at Liao Changsheng, as if she wanted to wait for him to speak, to wait for him to say something.
But he kept his head bowed and stood two steps away from the carriage, not saying a word.
Zhuxiang stomped her feet, sighed, and climbed into the carriage.
Liao Changsheng suddenly raised his head when the curtain of the carriage was lowered.
Mei Xiang glanced at Zhu Xiang, "Why don't I ask for you? Ask who he wants to marry? Let him ask his wife as soon as possible?"
Zhu Xiang quickly grabbed Mei Xiang's hand, "Don't! What do you mean asking for me? Who does he ask to marry, and what does it have to do with me?"
She frowned tightly, and her slightly dark face was full of anxiety at this moment.
"What are you afraid of? Zhuxiang, I haven't seen you so scared yet? This is the first time!" Mei Xiang chuckled.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the two servant girls.
Zhu Xiang sat upright, "This is ridiculous, what am I afraid of?"
Mei Xiang secretly laughed.
Xiao Yuzhuo coughed lightly, and the two servant girls shut up and said nothing more.
The carriage gradually started to move.
Mei Xiang suddenly opened the curtain and looked out.
Zhuxiang was originally sitting without moving, without squinting.
But as the carriage went faster and faster, she couldn't help it, and turned her head to look out.
The silent and isolated figure of the man under the moonlight gradually faded away.
When the carriage turned a corner, the man was completely invisible.
Zhuxiang's face sank slightly, and the corners of her mouth drooped a little.
Mei Xiang pushed her lightly, "I'll be back sooner or later."
Xiao Yuzhuo, Guan Sanye and his party left Xianyang at night.
After Jing Yannian watched the carriage leave, he returned to Xianyang Palace.
When he left, the Holy Majesty had already fallen asleep, and he expected that the whole palace would be very quiet at this time.
Never thought that when he returned quietly, the palace was brightly lit and there were still palace people walking back and forth.
Jing Yannian couldn't help frowning, he just left for a while, what happened in the palace?
As soon as he appeared, an attendant invited him to the main hall, saying that the Holy Majesty had summoned him.
Jing Yannian hurried to the main hall.
But I saw that there were not only the Holy One in the main hall, but also His Royal Highness King Ji who had been in Chang'an.
Jing Yannian saluted the Holy One and greeted King Ji.
King Ji glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "Father is in the palace, but General Jing is not around Father, what are you going to do?"
"The deposed prince has not been captured. I don't know where he is hiding at this time. The sage is staying in the palace, and the safety of the palace is naturally the first. I dare not sleep at night, so I am patrolling around the unfinished palace." Jing Jing Yannian said unhurriedly.
Now the guards of the palace are all men and horses brought out by him from the Shenwu Army, so King Ji still wants to attack him?
Ji Wang frowned slightly.
The Holy Majesty coughed lightly, "King Ji was trapped in Chang'an, and now he is finally able to come out. I don't know the situation of Zhaoling and Xianyang, so I can't help worrying. Don't worry about Nian'er."
When King Ji heard this, he was slightly startled.
He is a dignified prince, the son of the holy majesty, even if he questioned Jing Yannian, it is nothing, right?
Does the father have to explain to Jing Yannian?
He couldn't help taking a deep look at Jing Yannian, feeling an inexplicable sense of crisis spreading in his heart.
"My father, my son was trapped in Chang'an, but he tried his best to save his father from danger! But my son has no military power in his hands, and the Shenwu army does not obey his orders!" King Ji cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "My son They also searched for the powerful Evergreen Gang in an attempt to break through and rescue the Holy One. I never thought that the Evergreen Gang would refuse to help because of the disregard of the overall situation."
When Jing Yannian heard the words, he cupped his hands and said, "I know that the Evergreen Gang is not unwilling to help, but the abolished prince's army. The Evergreen Gang is just a private association. Seeing the disaster, they scattered and fled. It is not enough to fight against the abolished prince's army." The power of the horse. I went to find the leader of the Changqing Gang, and saw with my own eyes the scene of the members of the Evergreen Gang going to help Kong. The leader of the Evergreen Gang was willing to send his close guards to help the minister break out of the siege, so that the Shenwu Army could be sent back to help."
Ji Wang frowned and glanced at Jing Yannian, his expression became even uglier.
He went to call the Shenwu Army, but the Shenwu Army ignored him.
He went to the Evergreen Gang to borrow someone, but the Evergreen Gang refused to help him.
When the matter came to Jing Yannian, he went to the Changqing Gang to borrow manpower to help him break through to the Shenwu Army, mobilized the soldiers and horses of the Shenwu Army, and rescued the sage who was trapped in Zhaoling.
Doesn't the comparison between the two sides make it more obvious that he is incompetent?
King Ji frowned fiercely, "General Jing dispatched the Shenwu Army, why did he tell the abolished prince to run away? This incident is also a reminder to the ministers and others. The ministers have no military power in their hands. After the critical moment, it is difficult to protect the emperor, my son begs..."
King Ji's request for military power has not yet been said.
Outside the main hall of the Xinggong Palace, suddenly there were guards rushing over.
Both Shengshang and Jing Yannian looked out.
King Ji couldn't continue his words, and he also frowned and looked out.
"Report to Your Majesty!" The guard stood outside the hall with folded hands. "There is news from Chang'an that His Royal Highness the King of Yue has encountered a small force of the abolished prince and has been chasing him to the outside of Chang'an City. Now His Highness the King of Yue has arrived in Chang'an."
His Majesty's expression froze, and his eyes fell on King Ji.
Ji Wang's voice choked back.
The news of King Yue came at the right time!
He has already come to Chang'an!Do you have to rush to the time when he asked his father for military power, and pass the news up?
He took a breath. If he wanted military power, what should he say?
The Holy Majesty pondered for a moment, "The king of Yue is in Wancheng, why did he bring troops to Chang'an?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue said that he heard that the abolished prince raised troops to rebel. He was worried about the safety of the Holy Majesty, so he sent his troops north to try to rescue him." The guard clasped his hands and replied.
The Holy Majesty snorted, "Li Ke rebelled and suddenly raised his troops. I'm still unprepared. He is far away in Wancheng, and he came here with his troops, but he came so fast? His troops seem to have been prepared a long time ago?"
The Holy One doubted King Yue's motives.
Neither King Ji nor Jing Yannian who were standing in the hall made a sound.
The Holy Majesty snorted softly, "Decide my will, I have left Zhaoling safely, and told him to retreat quickly and leave Chang'an!"
The guard immediately retreated.
King Ji glanced at Jing Yannian.
Qia Jingyannian also looked at him.
King Ji curled his lips and smiled slightly at Jing Yannian.
Jing Yannian looked away.
……
At dawn, Xiao Yuzhuo and his party had already left Xianyang for more than [-] li.
Looking for a place with lush vegetation and a water source on the side of the road, the party stopped to rest and rectify.
Liang Sheng came to her and brought some snacks and hot water.
Xiao Yuzhuo quickly thanked him, "I'm on my way in a hurry, shopkeeper Liang is fully prepared."
Liang Sheng lowered his eyes and smiled, even if he was in a hurry, he would never forget the most important thing on his mind.
"The king of Yue's army is coming to Chang'an, the prince is hiding, the situation in Chang'an is tense, how long will the stalemate last?" Liang Sheng said in a low voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head, "Who knows, maybe we will see the result in a month or so, maybe it will be a year and a half to see and see. No matter what they do, let the chambers of commerce in various places actively stockpile grain and grass. The places near the northwest border secretly recruit troops. Chang'an In chaos, the imperial court can't spare a moment to pay attention to the chamber of commerce, this is a good time for the chamber of commerce to develop."
Liang Sheng nodded and agreed, "The school in Wancheng has basically distributed people to various places, and the lady will return to Wancheng. If the Holy Majesty and King Yue's father and son fall out, King Yue will definitely flee back to Wancheng. When the Holy Majesty crusades against Wancheng, Wancheng will Isn't the city peaceful?"
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "I went back to pick up Chongwu, and I also plan to see the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that the chambers of commerce are all over Daxia, am I afraid that there will be no place to go?"
Liang Sheng smiled when he heard the words, the bright sun in the morning was not as bright as the smile on his face.
After a short rest, the group set out on the road again.
Xiao Yuzhuo calculated the time, she will definitely be able to go back before Chongwu's birthday.
……
The soldiers and horses of the King of Yue are outside Chang'an.
The Holy One didn't start from Xianyang Palace for a while.
He ordered the king of Yue to withdraw his troops.
However, the King of Yue refused to withdraw his troops in the name of worrying about the safety of the Holy One, claiming that the deposed prince Li Ke had not been arrested and was still in hiding.
The Holy One is angry.
The nephew pretended to be dead for so long, and suddenly jumped out to set him up.
The son also led troops to Chang'an, but he dared not go back even though he was given the palace!
There is really no one to make him worry!
King Ji pondered for two days, and leaned over to the Holy Father, "Father, my son has a plan."
The Holy One squinted at King Ji, "What's your plan?"
"The king of Yue embraced the city, and he claimed that he was thinking about his father's safety. It was justified, and his father would not be able to drive him away. If he was recruited to the Xianyang palace, he would not be allowed to bring troops!" King Ji said, " If he is willing to come, here in Xianyang Xinggong are all the emperor's miraculous army, and when he arrives here, naturally everything will be decided by the emperor."
The Holy One frowned slightly.
"If he refuses to come..." Ji Wang fell silent for a moment, then suddenly cupped his hands and said, "It must be that he has a heart of disobedience, and my son is willing to share his worries and solve his father's problems!"
The four words "sharing worries and solving problems" rolled between Ji Wang's lips and teeth, and he said it with a lot of meaning.
The Holy One stared at King Ji for a moment.
King Ji had a hunch that there was a thorn in his back, but right now was a great opportunity before him, and he had to take risks to test the mind of the Holy One.
If the king of Yue has the heart of disobedience, then by taking this opportunity, he has real power in his hands, and while attacking the king of Yue, he can also lay a foundation for himself.
I'm afraid, even though my father doubted King Yue, he couldn't be cruel, no matter how scruples he had...
"You can give it a try." The Holy Majesty said suddenly.
Ji Wang was slightly taken aback, and quickly raised his head.
"Come here, pass on my will, and call Li Tai, King of Yue, to have an audience." The Holy Majesty ordered with a solemn face.
Ji Wang breathed a sigh of relief, not afraid that he would not come!If he didn't come, he just asked his father for soldiers and horses to attack Li Tai!
Don't be afraid of him coming, it's just a trick to catch a turtle in the urn!Call him back and forth!
Ji Wang straightened his body, hooked the corners of his mouth, he was complacent, but his face was calm.
Li Tai is in the army outside Chang'an City.
The holy emperor ordered him to see him.
"My lord is now passive." Yuan Jiangtao sighed.
Li Tai frowned, "The prince is too cunning, he could last for a while, but he ran away and hid."
"I'm afraid he wants you to take the lead, my lord, and he will take advantage of the fisherman in the back!" Yuan Jiangtao snorted softly.
Li Tai lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment.
"The ordering officer is still waiting outside." Yuan Jiangtao whispered, "My lord, look..."
"I'll go with him, you stay in the army." Li Tai suddenly got up and said.
Yuan Jiangtao was taken aback, "My lord! You go like this..."
How dangerous that is!
Li Tai shook his head, "I know what it means for me to face the saint. I went. After all, we are father and son. Although I have the crime of raising troops privately, I came here to save you. He imprisoned me at most. What can I do?" Can't kill me? If I don't go... that's rebellion, and there's no way out."
Yuan Jiangtao frowned.
Now that the first prince Li Ke is hiding, His Royal Highness the King of Yue is naturally passive.
You can't let the former prince wait to reap the benefits of the fisherman later. Of course, His Highness the King of Yue can't fight head-on with his own father, the current sage.
He only brought about twenty entourages with him, and went to Xianyang Palace with the commander.
Yuan Jiangtao held the commander's seal, and stayed in the army with Zhou Yanwu.
I heard that Li Tai has arrived at the Xianyang Palace.
The Holy Majesty summoned him immediately.
Naturally, Jing Yannian got the news immediately.
His Royal Highness Ji Wang was also watched by others, and when he got the letter, he came to the main hall.
He wants to see what the king of Yue has to say when he is here.
"My son is concerned about the safety of his father, so naturally he doesn't care much. Even if he wants to be blamed by his father for raising troops privately, as long as his father is safe and sound, his son is willing to be punished." Li Tai said in the hall with his head bowed.
King Ji sneered secretly, stood outside the hall and cupped his hands and said: "The king of Yue is far away in Wancheng, and something happened here in Zhaoling, your reaction is faster than that of the Shenwu army, and you are so quick to come to Chang'an, what a quick reaction! "
Li Tai glanced at him unhurriedly, "I don't know what King Ji said, is he trying to praise me for caring about my father, or is he trying to ridicule the Shenwu army for being lazy and incompetent?"
King Ji was choked by him, and rolled his eyes at him, "King Yue must know what I mean best."
"My whole heart is only worried about my father. My son is far away in Wancheng. I can't be filial to my father in time. My son is already guilty. If my father is in danger and my son does nothing, I am worthy of it." Are you a son and a minister? I just didn’t expect that His Royal Highness Ji would feel that his son came too fast? Isn’t His Royal Highness worried about the situation of his father in Zhaoling? The son is always anxious! I only wish that it could not be faster Some!" King Yue said to the Holy Majesty on the ground.
His words were sincere, with a slight nasal sound, as if he was anxious and wronged, with a sincere heart, which was misunderstood by King Ji.
He was heartbroken and pressed his face to the ground, unwilling to get up.
King Ji frowned and stared at him, this fellow!I went to Wancheng, long time no see?Is this the cultivation to become refined?In the past, I knew to keep a calm face and be serious.
Now it's so much acting!
It's really a three-day farewell to each other with admiration!I actually underestimated King Yue!
"Father made atonement, and I only hate myself for being too slow. If I could have arrived earlier, I would have captured Li Ke! I will never let him escape!" Li Tai said in a deep voice.
King Ji snorted slightly, "You can prevent him from escaping when you come. Does this mean that the Shenwu army led by General Jing is useless? Or is it that General Jing's command is improper?"
(End of this chapter)
There is no first-hand news about the Evergreen Gang.
However, the affairs of the gang are still being transferred to other places in an orderly manner.
This afternoon, Liang Sheng found Xiao Yuzhuo.
He looked at Xiao Yuzhuo with an extraordinarily deep gaze, "What are your plans in the future, my lady? Are you going back to Wancheng?"
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback for a moment, "Of course I'm going back to Wancheng. What else?"
Liang Sheng was silent for a moment.
"What? Isn't shopkeeper Liang planning to return to Wancheng?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked back.
Liang Sheng shook his head quickly, "No, the villain will definitely follow the lady back to Wancheng. It's just... the lady has already met General Jing, and this time the lady came forward to help the general, and even saved the saint from danger. If the general Take this opportunity to plead with the Holy One..."
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted softly, "I can't trust the Holy One! He promised to give me a hectare of land outside Qujiang Pond, and he could take it back with a twist of his face! He promised to let Xiuyuan marry me again, and in a blink of an eye he married the Turkic princess... Such a treacherous person Little...uh..."
Is it disrespectful to say that the Holy Majesty is a villain?
Xiao Yuzhuo coughed softly, "Anyway, I don't believe him! It's better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. The alliance will take this opportunity to grow, and even if he wants to kill me, he has to weigh it. This is the real power of self-protection."
Liang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, he cupped his hands, "The lady said so, the villain understands, so let's make arrangements."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded.
There won't be a few days of delay here, and it's time for them to leave for Wancheng.
Liang Sheng was walking in the hallway, ready to arrange for the return journey.
But he saw a pretty girl jumping in from the corridor and blocking in front of him.
The innocent girl in the past now has a little more calmness on her body.
She hadn't practiced with Guan Sanye in vain these days, learned a lot, and the temperament of her face and body had subtly changed.
"Mr. Liang," she smiled slightly, "Mr. Liang just asked the lady about the itinerary. Is Mr. Liang anxious to go back to Wancheng by himself?"
Liang Sheng looked at the little girl in front of him, and pursed his lips, "It's been a long time since I left Wancheng, and I miss it a little."
Liu Lanxue frowned, and pouted her small mouth slightly, "Does Mr. Liang miss Wancheng, or is he in a hurry to go back and marry Sister Juxiang?"
Liang Sheng sighed helplessly, "What I said last time has reached that point, she would rather be alone for the rest of her life than marry me...I'm afraid I don't have that blessing..."
"Yes, I think Sister Juxiang really doesn't like you too! Don't force her!" Liu Lanxue immediately said eagerly, "Why would Sister Juxiang threaten people with kindness? She saved your life. Just remember to prepare a generous gift for her! I..."
She licked her lips, breath a little anxious.
"I will treat Sister Juxiang very well in the future! You don't have to marry her to repay your kindness! No girl wants someone to marry her just because of her kindness. The little lady wants to marry someone she likes, and also really likes her." Her people!"
After Liu Lanxue finished speaking, her little face turned red.
Seeing Liang Sheng staring at her, he looked at her silently.
She was anxious and angry, "You...why are you like this?"
She stomped her feet, jumped out of the corridor, glanced back at him, and ran away briskly.
Liang Sheng stood in the corridor, pulling the corners of his mouth helplessly.
Liu Lanxue was only in her teens, how could he not see her thoughts?
But he can't marry her...
He shook his head and sighed, was silent for a moment, and walked away.
Three days later, the head of the Evergreen Gang came here to get the news.
Jing Yannian rushed to the Shenwu Army, and directly beheaded several generals in the barracks who said in the barracks that "the former prince is the orthodox, and the current emperor is just a villain who seeks power and usurps the throne. He should help the prince defeat Zhaoling".
Sometimes, it really takes absolute force to hold the scene.
Those generals even teamed up to attack Jing Yannian.
But it is not his opponent at all.
Jing Yannian was drenched in blood, holding a long spear, and stood majestically in the barracks.
When all the soldiers saw him, it was as if the hearts of the soldiers turned to him like a tide in an instant.
He ordered that anyone who supports the abolition of the prince will be killed.
In the military camp, no one dared to say that the abolished prince is orthodox.
He led his army secretly bypassed Xianyang and went straight to Zhaoling.
The first prince might as well suddenly surround himself with reinforcements from behind.
He hadn't gotten any news before.
Although he knew that Jing Yannian broke through and went to the barracks, he never expected that he would come back alive, and he came so quickly!
"Then what's the result?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked hastily, "How many martial arts troops did General Jing lead? It must be a fierce battle with the former crown prince, right?"
The person who came back to report the letter said it vividly, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, "General Jing is leading the army in front, and the prince's soldiers immediately panicked when they saw that it was General Jing who rushed to the front with their guns." No matter how much the former crown prince encourages, it will be difficult to stop the trend of defeat!"
When Xiao Yuzhuo heard the words, he felt as if he was listening to a myth. Could it be that Jing Yannian is still the God of War in the army?
Was the enemy afraid when they saw him?
"On the battlefield, the first thing to look at is the momentum, and the second thing to look at is the armament! If the momentum is not as good as others, you will lose [-]% of the first! Otherwise, how can there be "one effort, then decline, and three exhaustion" What do you mean?" Seeing Xiao Yuzhuo's shocked expression, Guan Sanye rubbed his chin and explained.
He even regretted in his heart that if Jing Yannian was not a general or prince in the court.
How good would it be to be a deputy leader of his evergreen gang?
"And then?" Xiao Yuzhuo nodded and continued to ask.
"The first prince saw that the general situation was over, so he was able to bend and stretch, and immediately fled with less than [-] soldiers and horses. The northern mountain system includes Jiuyi Mountain, Qiaoshan Mountain, Huanglong Mountain, etc., dense forests are widely distributed, and the mountains are rugged and easy to hide. They didn't catch him either!" said the messenger.
Guan Sanye frowned and nodded.
Xiao Yuzhuo was also silent for a moment.
"How is Yu Niangzi's preparations? Since this is the result, should we leave Xianyang?" Guan Sanye asked.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded repeatedly, "What the third master said is that now is the time to leave. So as not to continue to confuse you."
"General Lan is chasing the first prince and his troops in the mountains. General Jing escorts the saint back to Chang'an. Maybe he will pass by Xianyang." After the reporter finished speaking, he retreated.
Both Xiao Yuzhuo and Guan Sanye ordered people to pack up and get ready to leave at any time.
Taking advantage of the night, Jing Yannian quietly came to the head of the Evergreen Gang again.
Maybe it's because he has a particularly good memory for the terrain. After asking for help that night, the terrain pattern of the chief rudder of the Evergreen Gang seemed to be imprinted in his mind.
He sneaked in without much effort.
When he found Xiao Yuzhuo's courtyard, the guards in the courtyard were startled.
"Yuyu," he called her outside, as if he was afraid of frightening her, instead of rushing in, "I came to see you alone."
Xiao Yuzhuo asked Jing Yannian to come in.
He really came alone, without bringing anyone with him.
"Are you planning to elope with me?" Xiao Yuzhuo laughed.
Jing Yannian's face darkened, "I'm escorting the saint back to Chang'an, and the saint is now staying in the Northwest Palace."
Xiao Yuzhuo let out a cry.
But Jing Yannian emphasized: "Do you know the Northwest Palace?"
Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head.
"The Northwest Palace was originally the Xianyang Palace. It was built in the pre-Qin period. It stretched far and wide, majestic and magnificent! But it was burned down by Xiang Yu later." Jing Yannian looked at Xiao Yuzhuo with heavy eyes, "I said the former emperor It is not false to say that the great construction was done. The first emperor rebuilt the Northwest Palace on the original site of the pre-Qin Dynasty, hoping to reproduce the magnificence of the West Palace in Xianyang. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang defeated Qin because of the extravagance of the Qin emperor! The first emperor did not learn the lesson, Just have fun."
"Okay, my uncle is dead, so don't poke him in the back, and I didn't say I don't believe you?" Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at him.
Jing Yanqing coughed, "The construction of the Northwest Palace stopped completely after the current Holy Majesty ascended the throne. The Holy Majesty used the money for building the Northwest Palace to rebuild canals and build dams to protect the people from drought and flood... "
Xiao Yuzhuo curled his lips and looked at Jing Yannian with a smile.
Her eyes were too clear, and the candlelight shone in her eyes, making him unable to speak for a while.
"I understand, the current Holy Majesty is in your eyes, he is a Mingjun, a person worthy of your allegiance." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, "You will not leave the Holy Majesty now, you still want to be your general, for the Holy Majesty Escort."
"Yuyu, can you stay?" Jing Yannian said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty thinks that I have made great contributions to saving you, and that the League has contributed a lot. I will definitely rectify your name and let you..."
"No need." Xiao Yuzhuo's voice instantly cooled down. Although she still had a smile on her face, there was only a hint of coldness in her voice, "You don't need to be kind enough to spare my life. I don't care about the wealth and splendor of Chang'an. He Thinking about the merits of the alliance, what can you give me? Give me a little life? Don't pursue the crime of deceiving the emperor that I didn't die?"
Jing Yannian's face tensed, "Yuyu..."
"Your Majesty loves you so much, so you can't bear him." Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "I don't have such deep friendship with him. I thought you said he was your father, so I agreed that the alliance will help you. Don't you You misunderstood that I was surrendering to the Holy One and begging for mercy?"
"Yuyu, why are you doing this?" Jing Yannian asked with a frown.
"Why bother?" Xiao Yuzhuo laughed, "If I hadn't struggled to survive, I would have been run over to death long ago. The Holy Majesty would have drowned me by spitting. I don't care who is the emperor, I just want to live a good life. He’s not dead, I heard that the Prince of Yue has raised his troops and is coming to Chang’an to ‘save the Holy Majesty and suppress the rebels’. The Holy Majesty has not yet won a complete victory, why is General Jing so anxious to ask me to surrender?”
Jing Yannian closed his eyes, let out a long breath, and said weakly: "Yuyu, why do you have to misinterpret my words, I just hope that we can be together well and never have to be separated again."
Xiao Yuzhuo laughed softly, "It's not that I want to misinterpret your words, you have a position, and I have no position in this fight. I promised Chong Wu that I would go back before his birthday and spend his two-year-old birthday with him It's already pitiful enough that his father is not by his side every day, I can't let him lose his mother."
Chen Mo was rendered in Jing Yannian's eyes, which became dark for a moment.
"You said you want to be together? Why don't you give up the title and leave Xianyang with me now?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked.
Jing Yannian's face was stiff, "I'm not reluctant to be an official, but you also said that the abolished prince fled and the King of Yue's army came to Chang'an. Can I leave the Holy Majesty now and leave with only my personal safety in mind?"
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "Yeah, everyone has to face choices. How can you have your cake and eat it too?"
Jing Yannian suddenly stepped forward to hold her hand.
As the two got closer, Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly realized that Jing Yannian, who was so strong and so conceited, had tears in his eyes.
She forced him, too hard?
"The Holy Majesty wanted to announce my life experience to the world, and wanted to make me the crown prince, but I refused." Jing Yannian said in a deep voice, "I don't want the crown prince, I just want to marry you again."
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed, and shook Jing Yannian's hand, "That's good, I won't force you, and you don't force me either. I don't want you to go back to Chang'an now, you go to quell the riot for your father for the Holy Lord, and I will go back to Wan Cheng accompany Chongwu to celebrate his second birthday. After the war is over, how about we talk about our own plans?"
Jing Yannian took a deep look at her and was silent for a moment. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and said slowly, "What you said seems to be the best way. Many times you can't have both."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, "I and Chongwu will wait for you."
Her voice was very soft, but he heard it clearly.
He suddenly stepped forward to hug her, and rubbed her tightly into his arms, as if he wanted to hold her like this forever.
"Lady, it's the third watch. Third Master Guan is ready to leave." The servant girl whispered outside.
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed softly in Jing Yannian's arms, "We plan to go back to Wancheng first, and if Wancheng is also affected, we will go south."
Jing Yannian was stunned for a moment, "I force you to come back to Chang'an with me now, am I too conceited? I am confident that I can protect your mother and child, and keep Chang'an safe?"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and said, "Maybe it's because I'm too reserved and suspicious, so Chang'an is the best. You have to be careful."
Jing Yannian nodded heavily.
There was a faint urging voice outside.
Jing Yannian held her hand tightly, and his gaze fell on her face, "You must be careful along the way! Always cherish yourself and don't try to be brave!"
Xiao Yuzhuo whispered: "I know."
Jing Yannian reluctantly let go of his hand.
His eyes followed her all the time.
She went outside the door, looked back and smiled at him.
The light from the candles in the porch reflected on her face, so soft, so beautiful...
It seems that she has never been so strong that he, a majestic man, feels tired, as if she has never been so stubborn that he just wants to cut off her plump wings, and only hold her in his arms to care for her...
She was supported by the servant girl to leave the corridor and walk through the courtyard.
As she walked away step by step, her figure gradually blurred in his sight until she disappeared...
Jing Yannian clenched his hands into fists and stood stiff for a moment.
The warmth of holding her just now seemed to be stagnant in his chest.
When Xiao Yuzhuo was about to get into the carriage, he saw someone standing beside the carriage.
In the middle of the night, the face could not be seen clearly, and the man stood under the shadow of the tree again.
She squinted her eyes for a moment, "Liao Suwei?"
The man under the shadow of the tree responded muffledly.
"Aren't you leaving?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked.
Only then did Liao Suwei take a step forward, the moonlight fell on him, making his figure look cold and lonely.
He cupped his hands and said, "Chang'an is still uncertain, the villain can't leave."
Xiao Yuzhuo thought of the reason why Jing Yannian refused to leave, and took another deep look at Liao Changsheng, "You can make your own decision, others will force you to do so, even if you think about it, it will cause you pain."
"Thank you, lady." Liao Suwei said in a deep voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo stepped into the carriage.
But she saw two maids beside her, Zhu Xiang and Mei Xiang, still standing outside the carriage.
Mei Xiang looked at Zhu Xiang and tugged at her sleeve.
Zhuxiang looked at Liao Changsheng fixedly, silently.
A group of carriages and horses have been packed, and someone in the front will check to see if the rear is ready, and they are about to set off when they are ready.
Mei Xiang then climbed into the carriage, "Zhu Xiang, hurry up!"
Zhuxiang looked at Liao Changsheng, as if she wanted to wait for him to speak, to wait for him to say something.
But he kept his head bowed and stood two steps away from the carriage, not saying a word.
Zhuxiang stomped her feet, sighed, and climbed into the carriage.
Liao Changsheng suddenly raised his head when the curtain of the carriage was lowered.
Mei Xiang glanced at Zhu Xiang, "Why don't I ask for you? Ask who he wants to marry? Let him ask his wife as soon as possible?"
Zhu Xiang quickly grabbed Mei Xiang's hand, "Don't! What do you mean asking for me? Who does he ask to marry, and what does it have to do with me?"
She frowned tightly, and her slightly dark face was full of anxiety at this moment.
"What are you afraid of? Zhuxiang, I haven't seen you so scared yet? This is the first time!" Mei Xiang chuckled.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the two servant girls.
Zhu Xiang sat upright, "This is ridiculous, what am I afraid of?"
Mei Xiang secretly laughed.
Xiao Yuzhuo coughed lightly, and the two servant girls shut up and said nothing more.
The carriage gradually started to move.
Mei Xiang suddenly opened the curtain and looked out.
Zhuxiang was originally sitting without moving, without squinting.
But as the carriage went faster and faster, she couldn't help it, and turned her head to look out.
The silent and isolated figure of the man under the moonlight gradually faded away.
When the carriage turned a corner, the man was completely invisible.
Zhuxiang's face sank slightly, and the corners of her mouth drooped a little.
Mei Xiang pushed her lightly, "I'll be back sooner or later."
Xiao Yuzhuo, Guan Sanye and his party left Xianyang at night.
After Jing Yannian watched the carriage leave, he returned to Xianyang Palace.
When he left, the Holy Majesty had already fallen asleep, and he expected that the whole palace would be very quiet at this time.
Never thought that when he returned quietly, the palace was brightly lit and there were still palace people walking back and forth.
Jing Yannian couldn't help frowning, he just left for a while, what happened in the palace?
As soon as he appeared, an attendant invited him to the main hall, saying that the Holy Majesty had summoned him.
Jing Yannian hurried to the main hall.
But I saw that there were not only the Holy One in the main hall, but also His Royal Highness King Ji who had been in Chang'an.
Jing Yannian saluted the Holy One and greeted King Ji.
King Ji glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "Father is in the palace, but General Jing is not around Father, what are you going to do?"
"The deposed prince has not been captured. I don't know where he is hiding at this time. The sage is staying in the palace, and the safety of the palace is naturally the first. I dare not sleep at night, so I am patrolling around the unfinished palace." Jing Jing Yannian said unhurriedly.
Now the guards of the palace are all men and horses brought out by him from the Shenwu Army, so King Ji still wants to attack him?
Ji Wang frowned slightly.
The Holy Majesty coughed lightly, "King Ji was trapped in Chang'an, and now he is finally able to come out. I don't know the situation of Zhaoling and Xianyang, so I can't help worrying. Don't worry about Nian'er."
When King Ji heard this, he was slightly startled.
He is a dignified prince, the son of the holy majesty, even if he questioned Jing Yannian, it is nothing, right?
Does the father have to explain to Jing Yannian?
He couldn't help taking a deep look at Jing Yannian, feeling an inexplicable sense of crisis spreading in his heart.
"My father, my son was trapped in Chang'an, but he tried his best to save his father from danger! But my son has no military power in his hands, and the Shenwu army does not obey his orders!" King Ji cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "My son They also searched for the powerful Evergreen Gang in an attempt to break through and rescue the Holy One. I never thought that the Evergreen Gang would refuse to help because of the disregard of the overall situation."
When Jing Yannian heard the words, he cupped his hands and said, "I know that the Evergreen Gang is not unwilling to help, but the abolished prince's army. The Evergreen Gang is just a private association. Seeing the disaster, they scattered and fled. It is not enough to fight against the abolished prince's army." The power of the horse. I went to find the leader of the Changqing Gang, and saw with my own eyes the scene of the members of the Evergreen Gang going to help Kong. The leader of the Evergreen Gang was willing to send his close guards to help the minister break out of the siege, so that the Shenwu Army could be sent back to help."
Ji Wang frowned and glanced at Jing Yannian, his expression became even uglier.
He went to call the Shenwu Army, but the Shenwu Army ignored him.
He went to the Evergreen Gang to borrow someone, but the Evergreen Gang refused to help him.
When the matter came to Jing Yannian, he went to the Changqing Gang to borrow manpower to help him break through to the Shenwu Army, mobilized the soldiers and horses of the Shenwu Army, and rescued the sage who was trapped in Zhaoling.
Doesn't the comparison between the two sides make it more obvious that he is incompetent?
King Ji frowned fiercely, "General Jing dispatched the Shenwu Army, why did he tell the abolished prince to run away? This incident is also a reminder to the ministers and others. The ministers have no military power in their hands. After the critical moment, it is difficult to protect the emperor, my son begs..."
King Ji's request for military power has not yet been said.
Outside the main hall of the Xinggong Palace, suddenly there were guards rushing over.
Both Shengshang and Jing Yannian looked out.
King Ji couldn't continue his words, and he also frowned and looked out.
"Report to Your Majesty!" The guard stood outside the hall with folded hands. "There is news from Chang'an that His Royal Highness the King of Yue has encountered a small force of the abolished prince and has been chasing him to the outside of Chang'an City. Now His Highness the King of Yue has arrived in Chang'an."
His Majesty's expression froze, and his eyes fell on King Ji.
Ji Wang's voice choked back.
The news of King Yue came at the right time!
He has already come to Chang'an!Do you have to rush to the time when he asked his father for military power, and pass the news up?
He took a breath. If he wanted military power, what should he say?
The Holy Majesty pondered for a moment, "The king of Yue is in Wancheng, why did he bring troops to Chang'an?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue said that he heard that the abolished prince raised troops to rebel. He was worried about the safety of the Holy Majesty, so he sent his troops north to try to rescue him." The guard clasped his hands and replied.
The Holy Majesty snorted, "Li Ke rebelled and suddenly raised his troops. I'm still unprepared. He is far away in Wancheng, and he came here with his troops, but he came so fast? His troops seem to have been prepared a long time ago?"
The Holy One doubted King Yue's motives.
Neither King Ji nor Jing Yannian who were standing in the hall made a sound.
The Holy Majesty snorted softly, "Decide my will, I have left Zhaoling safely, and told him to retreat quickly and leave Chang'an!"
The guard immediately retreated.
King Ji glanced at Jing Yannian.
Qia Jingyannian also looked at him.
King Ji curled his lips and smiled slightly at Jing Yannian.
Jing Yannian looked away.
……
At dawn, Xiao Yuzhuo and his party had already left Xianyang for more than [-] li.
Looking for a place with lush vegetation and a water source on the side of the road, the party stopped to rest and rectify.
Liang Sheng came to her and brought some snacks and hot water.
Xiao Yuzhuo quickly thanked him, "I'm on my way in a hurry, shopkeeper Liang is fully prepared."
Liang Sheng lowered his eyes and smiled, even if he was in a hurry, he would never forget the most important thing on his mind.
"The king of Yue's army is coming to Chang'an, the prince is hiding, the situation in Chang'an is tense, how long will the stalemate last?" Liang Sheng said in a low voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head, "Who knows, maybe we will see the result in a month or so, maybe it will be a year and a half to see and see. No matter what they do, let the chambers of commerce in various places actively stockpile grain and grass. The places near the northwest border secretly recruit troops. Chang'an In chaos, the imperial court can't spare a moment to pay attention to the chamber of commerce, this is a good time for the chamber of commerce to develop."
Liang Sheng nodded and agreed, "The school in Wancheng has basically distributed people to various places, and the lady will return to Wancheng. If the Holy Majesty and King Yue's father and son fall out, King Yue will definitely flee back to Wancheng. When the Holy Majesty crusades against Wancheng, Wancheng will Isn't the city peaceful?"
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "I went back to pick up Chongwu, and I also plan to see the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that the chambers of commerce are all over Daxia, am I afraid that there will be no place to go?"
Liang Sheng smiled when he heard the words, the bright sun in the morning was not as bright as the smile on his face.
After a short rest, the group set out on the road again.
Xiao Yuzhuo calculated the time, she will definitely be able to go back before Chongwu's birthday.
……
The soldiers and horses of the King of Yue are outside Chang'an.
The Holy One didn't start from Xianyang Palace for a while.
He ordered the king of Yue to withdraw his troops.
However, the King of Yue refused to withdraw his troops in the name of worrying about the safety of the Holy One, claiming that the deposed prince Li Ke had not been arrested and was still in hiding.
The Holy One is angry.
The nephew pretended to be dead for so long, and suddenly jumped out to set him up.
The son also led troops to Chang'an, but he dared not go back even though he was given the palace!
There is really no one to make him worry!
King Ji pondered for two days, and leaned over to the Holy Father, "Father, my son has a plan."
The Holy One squinted at King Ji, "What's your plan?"
"The king of Yue embraced the city, and he claimed that he was thinking about his father's safety. It was justified, and his father would not be able to drive him away. If he was recruited to the Xianyang palace, he would not be allowed to bring troops!" King Ji said, " If he is willing to come, here in Xianyang Xinggong are all the emperor's miraculous army, and when he arrives here, naturally everything will be decided by the emperor."
The Holy One frowned slightly.
"If he refuses to come..." Ji Wang fell silent for a moment, then suddenly cupped his hands and said, "It must be that he has a heart of disobedience, and my son is willing to share his worries and solve his father's problems!"
The four words "sharing worries and solving problems" rolled between Ji Wang's lips and teeth, and he said it with a lot of meaning.
The Holy One stared at King Ji for a moment.
King Ji had a hunch that there was a thorn in his back, but right now was a great opportunity before him, and he had to take risks to test the mind of the Holy One.
If the king of Yue has the heart of disobedience, then by taking this opportunity, he has real power in his hands, and while attacking the king of Yue, he can also lay a foundation for himself.
I'm afraid, even though my father doubted King Yue, he couldn't be cruel, no matter how scruples he had...
"You can give it a try." The Holy Majesty said suddenly.
Ji Wang was slightly taken aback, and quickly raised his head.
"Come here, pass on my will, and call Li Tai, King of Yue, to have an audience." The Holy Majesty ordered with a solemn face.
Ji Wang breathed a sigh of relief, not afraid that he would not come!If he didn't come, he just asked his father for soldiers and horses to attack Li Tai!
Don't be afraid of him coming, it's just a trick to catch a turtle in the urn!Call him back and forth!
Ji Wang straightened his body, hooked the corners of his mouth, he was complacent, but his face was calm.
Li Tai is in the army outside Chang'an City.
The holy emperor ordered him to see him.
"My lord is now passive." Yuan Jiangtao sighed.
Li Tai frowned, "The prince is too cunning, he could last for a while, but he ran away and hid."
"I'm afraid he wants you to take the lead, my lord, and he will take advantage of the fisherman in the back!" Yuan Jiangtao snorted softly.
Li Tai lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment.
"The ordering officer is still waiting outside." Yuan Jiangtao whispered, "My lord, look..."
"I'll go with him, you stay in the army." Li Tai suddenly got up and said.
Yuan Jiangtao was taken aback, "My lord! You go like this..."
How dangerous that is!
Li Tai shook his head, "I know what it means for me to face the saint. I went. After all, we are father and son. Although I have the crime of raising troops privately, I came here to save you. He imprisoned me at most. What can I do?" Can't kill me? If I don't go... that's rebellion, and there's no way out."
Yuan Jiangtao frowned.
Now that the first prince Li Ke is hiding, His Royal Highness the King of Yue is naturally passive.
You can't let the former prince wait to reap the benefits of the fisherman later. Of course, His Highness the King of Yue can't fight head-on with his own father, the current sage.
He only brought about twenty entourages with him, and went to Xianyang Palace with the commander.
Yuan Jiangtao held the commander's seal, and stayed in the army with Zhou Yanwu.
I heard that Li Tai has arrived at the Xianyang Palace.
The Holy Majesty summoned him immediately.
Naturally, Jing Yannian got the news immediately.
His Royal Highness Ji Wang was also watched by others, and when he got the letter, he came to the main hall.
He wants to see what the king of Yue has to say when he is here.
"My son is concerned about the safety of his father, so naturally he doesn't care much. Even if he wants to be blamed by his father for raising troops privately, as long as his father is safe and sound, his son is willing to be punished." Li Tai said in the hall with his head bowed.
King Ji sneered secretly, stood outside the hall and cupped his hands and said: "The king of Yue is far away in Wancheng, and something happened here in Zhaoling, your reaction is faster than that of the Shenwu army, and you are so quick to come to Chang'an, what a quick reaction! "
Li Tai glanced at him unhurriedly, "I don't know what King Ji said, is he trying to praise me for caring about my father, or is he trying to ridicule the Shenwu army for being lazy and incompetent?"
King Ji was choked by him, and rolled his eyes at him, "King Yue must know what I mean best."
"My whole heart is only worried about my father. My son is far away in Wancheng. I can't be filial to my father in time. My son is already guilty. If my father is in danger and my son does nothing, I am worthy of it." Are you a son and a minister? I just didn’t expect that His Royal Highness Ji would feel that his son came too fast? Isn’t His Royal Highness worried about the situation of his father in Zhaoling? The son is always anxious! I only wish that it could not be faster Some!" King Yue said to the Holy Majesty on the ground.
His words were sincere, with a slight nasal sound, as if he was anxious and wronged, with a sincere heart, which was misunderstood by King Ji.
He was heartbroken and pressed his face to the ground, unwilling to get up.
King Ji frowned and stared at him, this fellow!I went to Wancheng, long time no see?Is this the cultivation to become refined?In the past, I knew to keep a calm face and be serious.
Now it's so much acting!
It's really a three-day farewell to each other with admiration!I actually underestimated King Yue!
"Father made atonement, and I only hate myself for being too slow. If I could have arrived earlier, I would have captured Li Ke! I will never let him escape!" Li Tai said in a deep voice.
King Ji snorted slightly, "You can prevent him from escaping when you come. Does this mean that the Shenwu army led by General Jing is useless? Or is it that General Jing's command is improper?"
