Chapter 32
The days are still so unsalty day by day, now, I have handed over most of the general's military affairs to Mu Liu, and now I am only in charge of the remaining guards in the capital.

Now that I am free on weekdays, I just deal with those court affairs, which can be regarded as helping my emperor brother to share some burden.

Today is the day of cold food, and my elder brother of the emperor will go to the Taimiao to worship the ancestors as usual. I heard Yun'er in my house say: This cold food is also a very important day for our royal family.

For this, I didn't pay much attention to it.

'Cold food?In fact, isn't it what we modern people call Qingming?It's just that they don't seem to know what it is for. Most people in modern times only know that there is a Qingming festival, but they don't know that there is such a so-called 'cold food'.Finally, in this modern age, these two festivals were abruptly merged into one.Actually, as far as I know: Tomb-sweeping Day is for worship and tomb-sweeping, while the Cold Food Festival is for outings. 'That's what I thought in my heart.

However, today, I heard that Yun'er in the mansion told me: "General, early this morning, someone from the palace was sent over, saying: Your Majesty has a decree. This time, the general does not need to follow or accompany you when you leave the palace. To show his sincerity, the emperor went alone, and just asked the general to guard the palace for him, so that nothing goes wrong."

'After listening to Na Liuer's return, I understand that my brother the emperor wants to go out of the palace without bringing any troops, but this is too unsafe. 'However, in my heart, I am not at ease after all.

Thinking about it, my elder brother is the king of a country after all, so I thought to myself: "It's better to let Liu'er secretly lead people to watch this matter." '

outside of Kyoto.

I saw that my brother the emperor took a group of people and went out of the city.

I watched from a high place on the city tower, standing alone in the howling wind, watching them leave.

Today, it seems that not many people know about it.

Outside the palace, there were only a few palace guards in plain clothes, secretly escorting them, and there were no other people around.

Come to think of it, my brother the emperor was afraid that it would be bad for too many people in the palace to know about that person, and the other reason might be to be pious and seek merit this time, and it could be regarded as going out to try to be clean for a while. .

Seeing that they got out of the city safely, I also left the tower, rode my horse, and prepared to return to the palace.

Unexpectedly, suddenly the horse under me was startled by something, I hurriedly pulled the rein to stabilize the horse.

When I looked up, I saw a horse galloping towards me in the distance.

At this time, the horse under me seemed to be going crazy, kicking its hooves non-stop, raising waves of dust from time to time, no matter how I comforted it, it just refused to take a step forward.

Seeing that crazy horse was about to run towards me, I quickly jumped, and in a blink of an eye, I flew to sit on the horse.

It was strange to think that the horse immediately became calm when it was under me, and I hurriedly grabbed the rein with one hand.Unexpectedly, the palm of my hand was wet and sticky when I started it. Looking straight ahead, my palm was already blood red.

'is blood! '

I was startled immediately, I hurriedly lowered my head to look at the horse carefully, and my heart felt cold again!
I recognized it. This horse is the mount of my Royal Guards of the Great Chu Kingdom. It is also a BMW given by the emperor. The driving force bestowed by the second rank guards.

'At this moment, how could it appear here?Could it be? '

'No, something must have happened in the palace this time. '

I hurriedly ordered the hidden guards beside me to take the transfer order and go to the barracks for me, and go back to the barracks to bring some reinforcements for me, then I immediately rode my horse and ran towards the palace.

I saw that the sky was covered with dark clouds at this moment, and the atmosphere had a feeling of "black clouds overwhelm the city and the city is about to be destroyed, and the light of armor opens to the sun's golden scales."

I stepped up the horse, let the horse run faster, and soon, I came to the gate of the palace.

At this moment, the gate of the palace was wide open.

'It's broken, I'm afraid something really happened in this palace! '

Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling startled, so I rode my horse and hurriedly passed the main gate of the palace.

In the past, the front yard of the palace was filled with Luoyang peonies. I thought that the peonies were still my emperor's elder brother. To celebrate my return to the imperial court, Mu Li'an sent someone to plant them.

In the distance, along with the sound of the wind, there were bursts of shouting and killing.

I seem to hear that there is a faint "bang, clang" sound of the sword colliding into my ears.

I just feel that the peonies in Luoyang are withered all over the ground at this time, as if, in the season when it should be blooming, it was suddenly trampled down, and it was trampled to the ground by the flying horseshoes. .

To the eye, there are mottled bloodstains everywhere on the flowers and leaves, and it is hard to tell whether it belongs to the enemy or our soldiers of the Great Chu Kingdom.

At this moment, the eyes are full of scenes of decline.

At this moment, all that could be seen were the shadows of swords and swords in the distance, horns and drums contending, and blood flowing everywhere.

I rode past, only to hear that there was an enemy holding a knife whizzing past my ears, and I instinctively pulled out the sword at my waist, raised the knife and dropped it without any ambiguity.

Soon, he also joined the fight.

A drop of my companion's blood dripped down my face along the shining blade of the enemy.

I just felt that, in an instant, my eyes turned blood red.

'I just hope that those reinforcements from my own army can arrive soon, so that the brothers here can hold on for a while longer. '

Thinking of this, I immediately solved another enemy.

"General"!
I looked up and saw a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old running towards me on horseback, slashing and killing the enemies on both sides.

When he came to me, I saw the man panting heavily, and eagerly said to me: "Your Majesty is the commander of the imperial guards in this palace. Today, there is a rebellion in the court. I think it is because your lord and your majesty are both together. Not in the palace. The subordinates have been resisting for several hours with the brothers this time, and this is finally the way to welcome you, my lord. But if this continues, the enemy is strong and we are few, and it is not an option. Besides, at this moment, I don't know what's going on with the emperor? Thinking about that villain, he must have been prepared for such a menacing appearance."

I heard it. 'That's right, looking at those disorderly troops, they all look well-trained, I'm afraid it really has been planned for a long time.However, fortunately, I have already made arrangements in advance, and asked Liu'er to take people to follow my emperor brother. '

I took a breath and asked the commander of the Imperial Guard: "Do you know who this group of people came from?"

"My subordinates don't know either, but looking at the situation, I feel that this matter must have something to do with those important officials in the court."

The soldier wiped the sweat off his face and replied.

'Yeah, I think there are only a few people in this dynasty who can know about this matter, even if they use the method of elimination, they can easily guess who the traitor is. '

Thinking of this, I also have a care in my heart.

Outside the palace, there were bursts of trumpets.

'It's me - Mu Li's army from the Great Chu State is here! '

At this moment, I raised my head with blood on the corner of my clothes, and saw that the large group of people rushed into the court in an instant, fighting with the enemy, and gradually approaching me.

It only took a quarter of an hour to see that the bones were everywhere, and the scene was already horrible, comparable to that battlefield.

When his subordinates dealt with the last remaining rebels, the vicious battle was finally over. However, no one was left alive.
