Chapter 124: The Palace Transformation and the Fall of the Emperor (1)
Elder Xuantian and his party pushed Murong Yangli out of the palace in a wheelchair and lived in a five-entry courtyard owned by King Li in Chang'an.

At night, an imperial physician, six maids and eunuchs sent by Murong Yangxiao with ulterior motives were drugged by the disciple of the old man Xuantian and all fell asleep.

Murong Yang regained his true identity, and it turned out to be Dongfang Xuanyi.

The second senior brother took out the guy to change Dongfang Xuanyi's appearance, tore off the dry and cracked mask and replaced it with a new one, and couldn't help but praise: "Junior brother, your strategy is really clever. I didn't realize that my biological brother was a fake."

Dongfang Xuanyi couldn't open his mouth wide, and made a weird voice, "The man on the dragon chair is all focused on Master, for fear that Master will cut off his head in a fit of anger."

The second brother patted Dongfang Xuanyi's face to make him look fatter, and said, "Don't wash your face these few days. Fortunately, it's winter now, so it's not easy to sweat."

Dongfang Xuanyi took the bronze mirror to look left and right, and thought: If Huamei sees my appearance, will I be disgusted?
The second elder brother said casually: "I remember you were not so particular about it before."

Dongfang Xuanyi said with some pride: "I am a person with an unmarried woman, so I am different from a bachelor."

The second senior brother laughed a few times, "That's true. Brother and sister are like fairies, you have to take good care of her to be worthy of her."

"You look down on your brother so much?"

"It's not looking down on you. You are good. However, you are a little worse than her."

"Have you been bribed after eating a few meals from her kitchen?" Dongfang Xuanyi couldn't help laughing and said, "This shows that I'm very lucky, at least better than you."

The second elder brother looked at Dongfang Xuanyi's slack appearance, gave him a few kicks on his calf, heard him screaming in pain, and joked: "My brother and sister are not here, it's useless if you scream!"

After the prince canonization ceremony, before Murong Yangxiao issued an order to punish Murong Yangzhou, there was an urgent military report from Hubei Province that shocked the Great Hua Dynasty—Murong Yangzhou proclaimed himself emperor in Jiangxia.

Murong Yangzhou listed seventeen major crimes against Murong Yangxiao, including rape of his sister-in-law, murder of his younger brother, doting on a demon concubine, and other crimes. He called Murong Yangxiao the most tyrannical evil emperor in the past thousand years, and everyone was punished.

Murong Yangzhou sent troops suddenly, and took seven cities in Hubei Province in a few days. With Jiangxia as the core capital and the Yangtze River as a barrier, it formed a country that was difficult to attack.

Murong Yangxiao was furious, it was winter at this time, the water level of the Yangtze River was not high, but it was cold in winter, most of the dynasty was army, so in the battle across the river, more losers and less wins.

He hurriedly summoned Dongfang Ding, who knew that Dongfang Ding was bitten by a snake once, and for three years he was afraid of straw ropes, afraid of being tricked into marrying a royal daughter again, so he resolutely refused to enter the palace.

Murong Yangxiao had no choice but to move to the Duke's mansion and bestow Dongfang Dingshangfang with the sword, and let him lead the Dragon Wing Army to eradicate King Zhou.

Dongfang Ding's face remained unchanged, "The founding emperor Taizu has ordered that the Dragon Wing Army will only kill foreigners who invaded the Dahua Dynasty, and will not kill the same clan."

Throughout the history of the Dahua Dynasty, the Dragon Wing Army has never been seen during the civil strife.That's because the leaders of the Dragon Wing Army made a blood oath before taking office not to interfere in civil strife.

"Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while. At the critical moment, you actually resisted the order and did not send troops. What's the use of spending a lot of money every year to support you dragon wing army!" Murong Yangxiao was furious.

Dongfang Ding said calmly: "Your Majesty went to the imperial mausoleum to ask the founding emperor Taizu. This is the rule established by Taizu."

After Murong Yangxiao returned to the palace, he decreed to seize Dongfang Ding's position as Duke of the State and demote him to Duke of Second Rank.

Now is the time to use military generals, Dongfang Ding, who had made great military exploits for the Great Hua Dynasty, just obeyed the Taizu's order and did not dispatch the tiger-winged army. Murong Yangxiao demoted his title, making all the generals feel cold.

In the morning, Murong Yangxiao ordered to attack Murong Yangzhou, but none of the generals took the initiative to ask for a fight.

Taifu Leng and several old ministers suggested that Murong Yangli's fief Tanzhou is close to Hubei Road and has sailors, so it is better for King Li to attack King Murong Zhou.

When Murong Yangxiao heard it, it was a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone.

Grand Tutor Leng said again: "King Li was seriously injured and became disabled. I heard that he didn't even come down to the ground."

Ouyang Yue said with emotion: "Your Majesty, King Li is loyal to you. If he is not injured, he can return to Tanzhou to lead troops to attack Murong Yangzhou today."

Murong Yangxiao regretted it too late, so he sent Prince Murong Qing to visit Murong Yangli with medicinal materials and other gifts to test his words.

It was snowing heavily outside, and it was extremely cold. There were eight copper braziers in the bedroom, and the temperature was so high that even wearing small clothes felt hot.

Murong Yang was lying on the bed covered with a thick quilt, screaming and dying of cold.

Murong Qing saw that Murong Yang was so serious, he thought about it for a while before he explained his intention.

Murong Yang showed an innocent smile on his disfigured face, "Brother trusts me so much that you want me to attack Murong Yang Zhou?"

"Yes. Of all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the emperor trusts you the most." Murong Qingxin said: Poor people must have something to hate.The hateful thing about you is that you are infinitely stupid.This is your life, you deserve to be played by my father and king.

Murong Yang said excitedly: "That's great. I've long since disliked Murong Yang Zhou's disrespect to my brother. I will fight to the death to get rid of this guy for my brother!"

"My lord, your fief suffers from floods every year, where do you get the money to fight?" Old Xuantian's voice was cold.

Murong Yang said in a low voice: "I don't have any money to find a way. I will sell all the valuables in the palace."

The old man Xuantian shook his head and said: "My lord, you have already sold almost all the valuable things in the mansion. If you continue to sell them, you will lose even the dowry of the little princess."

The two master and apprentice sang and sang together, pouring out bitter water, they felt sympathy for Murong Qing when they heard it.

At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, Murong Yangxiao agreed to Murong Yang's strict request, giving 10 taels of gold and sending troops to destroy the imperial decree of the King of Zhou.

Murong Yangli took his broken body and was escorted by the old man Xuantian to leave Chang'an.

A group of people immediately divided into two groups, all the way to play leisurely on the grounds of heavy snow blocking the road, all the way with [-] gold to support the green forest heroes of Shaanxi Road and Henan Road.

In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, several groups of Jianghu people in Shaanxi and Henan led the local people to revolt, robbed the granaries, smashed the yamen, and killed corrupt officials.
