Chapter 502: Mutiny
A generation of emperors of the Tang Dynasty were put under house arrest in this way.
No one in the civil and military dynasty dared to stand up and say anything.
Cai Xian, the Minister of Civil Affairs who was promoted by Li Qingcang, intercepted Wang Yunhe in front of the palace, but before he could say anything, he was killed by Wang Yunhe.
This move had the effect of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger.
Let all officials, both civil and military, remain as silent as cicadas.
This battle is of little significance to Wang Yunhe.
A king who conquers and puts a country under house arrest will inevitably die in the end.
The war was defeated, the country's capital was destroyed, and half of the Tang Dynasty fell into the hands of the enemy. As a military general, he naturally had no shame in living.
He just wanted to beat him vigorously without any scruples.
Let's see if the Wei army can be defeated without the emperor's intervention.
After Li Qingcang learned about the current situation in the entire palace, his heart filled with stasis, he vomited blood, and almost fainted.
In the bedroom.
He was lying on the bed recuperating.
At this time, the concubines, the prince, and the princes and princesses were all forced into the palace by the soldiers.
Li Qingcang stood up suddenly and asked, "What happened?"
He is quite sensitive now and cannot fall asleep whenever there is any disturbance.
I just regret that I trusted the wrong person. This Wang Yunhe actually harbors a disobedient heart!
Seeing the men and women in front of him making a mess, Li Qingcang felt bored.
He glanced at the prince.
Li Xinghe, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, was a kindhearted man and bowed to him: "Father, we are all Wang Yunhe's people. They are the ones who drove us to your palace. This Wang Yunhe is afraid that he will take advantage of the national crisis to rebel!"
Li Qingcang narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "I understand."
Several concubines were crying and complaining at his feet.
As the emperor's women, when have they ever experienced such humiliation?
Li Qingcang frowned and said, "Shut up, everyone!"
As soon as these words came out, they gradually stopped crying and calmed down, no longer yelling.
Just then.
Zuo Bu, one of the Kowloon generals, walked into the hall majestically and knelt down to Li Qingcang three times and nine times.
Li Qingcang looked at his posture and thought that things had turned around, so he asked, "Are you here to rescue me?"
Hearing the sound? Zuo Buqun stood up, shook his head, clasped his fists towards him and said: "Your Majesty? I am here to give you some peace of mind. The current national crisis is facing us. We need to unite as one. We must work together to overcome the difficulties."
So, I will wait for you and need your Majesty’s help.”
Listening to what he said, even the stupidest person could hear the hidden meaning of his words.
He and Wang Yunhe are in the same group!
Li Qingcang pointed at his nose and cursed: "A group of rebellious ministers and traitors are causing trouble in the palace? Are you threatening me? How can we talk about overcoming difficulties together? You have a heavy army? I? Is there anything else that can help you? Do you want to
Are you going to imitate what I did back then and force me to abdicate? Humph! You are not the descendants of my Li family, so you cannot be the emperor! In the Tang Dynasty, it is not your turn to be the treacherous ministers and traitors to make the decision!"
Zuo Buqun frowned when he heard this, but he was not angry and tried to persuade him: "Your Majesty, don't worry. After this battle, you will still be the emperor of our Tang Dynasty. Among thousands of people, you are now,
All we need to do is issue an edict, and all military and political power across the country will be handed over to the last general and General Wang Yunhe."
Li Qingcang gritted his teeth and said, "I think you are dreaming!"
At present, they, the few remaining Kowloon generals, control nearly 70% of the country's army. They have great power. If an imperial edict is issued to let them take charge of the military and political power of a country, I am afraid that such an approach will cause serious consequences.
To increase their arrogance, they can take the opportunity to go further and do something that is not beneficial to themselves and is treasonous.
Moreover, in this way, they will legitimately take over the military and political affairs of the country, and their power will reach its peak in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
This is absolutely impossible.
As long as they do not issue this imperial edict, even if they control the military and political affairs of a country, they will still be unjust and will encounter a lot of resistance.
Zuo Buqun said: "Your Majesty, do you think you haven't woken up yet? Why have you been defeated in successive battles? It's because, from the bottom of your heart, you don't trust the generals and others. They are all old men who have been buried half-body.
, even if the generals and others are tossing, how can they be tossing? I beg your majesty to issue an imperial edict. After the war is over, we will naturally die to apologize."
Li Qingcang sneered: "You think I'm a three-year-old child? How dare you deceive me like this? If I write an imperial edict, I'm afraid your next step is to ask me to give up my throne to you, right?"
Zuo Buqun solemnly clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty has completely overthought it. The general will take control of the palace. He just wants your Majesty to rest for a few days and return the power to your Majesty after the war is over."
Li Qingcang said: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Zuo Buqun said seriously: "The general just wants your Majesty to see with your own eyes whether we can defeat the powerful Wei army if we are freed from restraints."
Li Qingcang said: "Just because of this, you dare to put me under house arrest? You are really brave!"
Zuo Buqun bent down and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty may not know that your three thousand imperial guards have been killed by the generals and others. In the entire inner courtyard of the palace, except for the imperial guards, basically all of us are us."
We are already under our control, and those imperial guards are also under our firm control. After this situation, for the sake of His Majesty’s safety, you’d better write that imperial edict.”
As soon as the words fell, the whole hall fell into silence.
It can be said that he is already forcing her to have a baby.
Li Qingcang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, unable to utter a single word for a long while.
After a moment, he said unwillingly: "You don't dare to kill me. If you kill me, the spit from the outside world will drown you. Moreover, I don't believe that my army will follow you in rebellion wholeheartedly!"
"
Zuo Buqun took a deep breath and said with sharp eyes: "Your Majesty, please be clear that we are not rebelling, but that we are facing a national crisis and have no choice but to do it. We, the Tang Dynasty, can no longer suffer a major defeat. What if
During the battle with the Wei army, His Majesty was still worried about us, so this war has already been lost before it even begins."
Li Qingcang turned his back, stood with his hands behind his back, and remained silent.
Zuo Buqun also turned around and left the hall. When he came to the door of the hall, he said quietly: "Your Majesty, after burning the incense, I will see your imperial edict delivered. Otherwise, the concubines in the harem will be treated like wolves."
The tiger-like soldiers bullied me."
After saying this, he slowly closed his eyes and stepped out of the threshold with all his strength.
Since you have already committed great rebellion, you might as well carry out your rebellion to the end!
An unexpected palace change began just like this.
Li Qingcang lost all hope and sat down on the bed, his eyes dull.
Prince Li Xinghe said solemnly: "Father...Father, do we really want to write an imperial edict to these rebels?"
Li Qingcang said dejectedly: "At this point, what else can be done?"
He looked at the concubines in the harem, and they were already frightened to the point where their faces turned pale.
Everyone's appearance looked a little haggard for a while.
Sleeping with a rough guy in the army?
As the emperor's woman, that would be worse than death!
The queen exhaled a breath and bowed deeply to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please let me commit suicide on the spot."
Li Qingcang knew what she meant. After doing this, the emperor would not be embarrassed, and they would not be humiliated.
Many concubines in the harem did not want to die, and they began to cry for father and mother.
Hearing this, the Queen frowned and said, "Why are you crying? As His Majesty's woman, I have enjoyed all the glory and wealth in the world. Now, I sacrifice myself for Your Majesty. This is righteousness. What do you look like crying?"
Li Qingcang was quite moved. He held the queen's jade hand and forced a smile.
Then he looked at the concubines kneeling on the ground and said, "Don't worry, the matter between me and them will not affect you."
After saying that, the concubines began to kowtow, and all they said were words of praise for the emperor.
Li Qingcang was extremely annoyed when he heard the sound.
