Father and son kill each other

Liu Ju shook his head and said: "How can I kill a minister without permission as a son of a man? It's better to go to Ganquan Palace to plead guilty, and maybe I can get away with it."

"Your Highness must not..."

Liu Zheng planned to go to Ganquan Palace in person, but the prince's family leader Zheng Hui and others tried their best to stop him.

"Your Highness should arrest Jiang Chong and others first... take control of Chang'an, and then explain to Your Majesty..."

After being persuaded by Zheng Hui and others, Liu Zhi could not think of any other way, so he acted according to Shi De's plan.

On the ninth day of the seventh lunar month in autumn, Liu Ju sent his retainers to pretend to be the emperor's envoys and prepared to arrest Jiang Chong and others.

"Wait a minute, who are you, and why have I never seen you in the palace?"

According to Daohou Han, he suspected that the envoy was fake and refused to accept the edict.

At this moment, the retainer pretending to be the emperor's envoy suddenly rose up and stabbed Han Shuo to the ground with a sword.

"Get them all for me!"

After stabbing Han Shuo to death at the door, he immediately ordered his followers to capture Jiang Chong.

Jiang Chong did not dare to resist, so he had no choice but to surrender.

Soon Jiang Chong and others were escorted to Bowang Garden.

After Jiang Chong was taken to Bowang Garden, Prince Liu Ju interrogated him personally.

"Why is this villain Jiang Chong'er driving a wedge between my father and my son, and falsely accusing an orphan..."

Jiang Chong said, "Your Highness, you should go to His Majesty quickly to admit your mistake. You must not make the same mistake again and again..."

Jiang Chong never admitted that he had made a false accusation, but instead persuaded Liu Ju to admit his mistake to the emperor.

Liu Ju was furious and cursed: "You, slave of Zhao, have harassed the father and son of Zhao State before, and now you have come to harass my father and son again... You really deserve to be killed..."

After Liu Zhi killed Jiang and Chong, he gradually calmed down. At this time, he also felt that something was wrong, but he was already riding a tiger.

He simply did not do one thing and did not stop. He sent his attendants to enter the Changqiu Gate of Weiyang Palace at night, carrying talismans and festivals.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has no guests and I would like to see him..."

Yihua, a female official in Weiyang Palace, was reporting to Queen Wei Zifu.

"Why did the prince send someone to the palace at such a late hour?"

Although Queen Wei Zifu was confused, she still summoned Wu Ji.

"...How unwise is my son for this to happen!"

After hearing that the prince had killed Jiang Chong and Han Shuo, Wei Zifu suddenly became angry.

All the glory and splendor of the past were gone, leaving only a look of worry on his face.

"Please, Your Highness, for the sake of mother and son, please help the Crown Prince!"

He bowed down and worshiped.

Wei Zifu looked gloomy, "That's all...that's all... today is the day when my mother and son will die..."

Although Wei Zifu said this, he still gave his Queen's Talisman to Wuju.

With the Queen's Talisman in hand, Wu Ji and others immediately opened the arsenal and mobilized the guards of Changle Palace.

At this time, the city of Chang'an was already in chaos, and there were rumors: "The prince is rebelling."

Su Wen, who was lucky enough to escape, took advantage of the chaos to escape from Chang'an and came to Ganquan Palace.

"Your Majesty, the prince has rebelled and has now blocked Chang'an City..."

When the emperor heard this, he smiled and said: "How could my son rebel? It's because he was afraid and resentful of Jiang Chong and others. That's why such a change happened..."

"Come here, call the prince here...hehe...my son indeed still has some spirit..."

The emperor was quite happy at this time.

When the envoy arrived outside Chang'an City, Changle palace guards and Prince Liuli had already blocked Chang'an City.

After the messenger explained his purpose, the people in the city not only did not open the door, but ordered the messenger to be shot.

After the messenger luckily escaped the disaster, he immediately returned to Ganquan Palace to report to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the prince has rebelled. When I came to the city, I was told that I was your majesty's envoy, but the people on the city ordered me to be shot..."

At this time, Prime Minister Liu Quyou, after escaping from Chang'an, also sent Chang Shicheng Station to report on the prince's revolt.

The emperor asked: "What is the prime minister doing now?"

Chang Shi replied: "The prime minister has blocked the news of the prince's revolt..."

The emperor was furious: "Things have reached such a state, how can there be any secret? The prime minister does not have the legacy of Duke Zhou, how can Duke Zhou not kill Guan Cai!"

"Tell me, Prime Minister, to hunt down the rebels, and I will tell you the rewards and punishments... You must guard the city gate tightly and never let the rebels break out of Chang'an City!"

…

At the same time, after Liu Zheng took control of Chang'an City, he also issued a notice to all civil and military officials:

"Your Majesty is trapped in Ganquan Palace due to illness, and some treacherous ministers took the opportunity to rebel... so..."

All the civil and military officials in Chang'an City were shocked and confused, not knowing which side was true and which side was false. They all stood on the sidelines and watched.

After the emperor issued the edict to Liu Quyou, he also led the Yulin Army back from Ganquan Palace to Jianzhang Palace in the west of Chang'an City.

The emperor once again sent an envoy to Chang'an, hoping that the prince would repent.

Unexpectedly, the envoy was shot directly outside Hengmen by Zheng Hui's order.

Zheng Hui's behavior completely angered the emperor.

"Pass on my decree and order the troops of the Third Auxiliary to enter the capital..."

At this time, Liu Ju also sent envoys to correct the imperial edict, pardoning and releasing the prisoners in the prison of Zhongdu in Chang'an.

He also ordered young master Shide and disciple Zhang Guang to take charge respectively.

He also sent former retainers of the prince and prisoners of Chang'an such as Hou Chifujie to recruit Hu Qi from Changshui and Xuanqu.

At this time, Lang Guan Ma Tong was also sent by the emperor to mobilize the troops stationed in the two places to quell the rebellion.

"Come here, follow me and arrest Ruhou!"

Ma Tong was also a son of a good family in the six counties. Although he was a Langguan, he was also skilled in bow and horse.

Before his entourage could react, he had already galloped towards the military camp on horseback.

Although the followers were frightened, they had no choice but to ride their horses and follow quickly.

When Ma Tong arrived at the Hu Qi military camp, Colonel Hu Qi was in a state of hesitation.

Naruhou was urging him from the side.

Seeing this, Ma Tong held high the banner bestowed by the emperor and shouted, "The emperor's edict!" and rushed over.

When Na Ruhou saw this, his face turned pale and he turned around to run away.

At this time Ma Tong had already arrived, "pop"

Ma Tong used a banner as a whip and whipped him to the ground.

"Hu Qi, a lieutenant, is the Langguan Ma Tong. His Majesty has ordered that Hu Qi follow a certain person into Chang'an to quell the rebellion..."

Captain Hu Qi was also a person who often went in and out of the palace, so he naturally recognized Ma Tong and the banner in his hand.

After hearing this, he no longer hesitated and immediately summoned the Hu cavalry from the two military camps.

At this time, Ma Tong's entourage had also arrived at the gate of the military camp.

The followers quickly dragged Na Ruhou over.

"Gentleman, how should we deal with this Ruhou?"

Ma Tong thought for a moment and said, "We must not tolerate those who provoke His Majesty and his son. We must behead them and sacrifice them to the flag to show the strength of the army!"

"promise"

When the followers heard this, they did not hesitate immediately and immediately dragged Na Ruhou to the gate of the military camp and cut his head with a knife.

At this time Captain Hu had also assembled his cavalry.

After the two discussed it, they immediately set off for Chang'an.

Soon the two met Dahong Lu and Shang Qiucheng who were coming after hearing the news.

Shang Qiucheng suggested, "In order to quell the rebellion, the more troops the better. Why don't Ma Jun recruit nearby ship soldiers and soldiers to join Chang'an..."

"good!"

After Ma Tong thought about it for a moment, he immediately went to recruit ship soldiers and soldiers.

After the two armies joined forces, everyone voluntarily accepted Shang Qiucheng's command because Shang Qiucheng had the highest status.

After this army arrived in Chang'an, the balance of power between the two sides suddenly changed.

"Your Highness, the matter is urgent, and the Northern Army should be mobilized into Chang'an as soon as possible..."
