Because the imperial guards were his own people, and the court did not have any procedures, half of the imperial guards gathered very quickly. On the fifth day after the imperial guards were issued, the imperial guards had already assembled in the western suburbs of Chang'an.

The emperor personally left the city and sent the imperial guards to the expedition.

The complicated oath-taking meeting lasted for a morning, and in the afternoon, the army drove from the outskirts of Chang'an to Xisan Pass.

After the army set off, Lin Zhao, who had been with the emperor, bowed respectfully to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I... I am going to go to the war with the army."

Emperor Hongdao glanced at Lin Zhao and said slowly: "Master Lin, I have a few words to say to you alone."

The emperor made such a request, and Lin Zhao certainly agreed. He nodded and said, "Please borrow a step to speak."

In this way, the two left the crowd and came to the underworldly tree.

Lin Zhao's imperial guards controlled the surroundings and prohibited anyone from getting close.

After walking under the big tree, the emperor glanced at Lin Zhao and said lightly: "Sanlang, the request you made was that I was in Ganlu Hall and finally nodded in agreement. I agreed with you, but you must protect the safety of my family."

Lin Zhao blinked and looked at the emperor.

"How can your Majesty be in danger when he lives in the palace?"

"Why didn't there?"

The emperor looked calm and said, "Previously, when I dealt with the descendants of Emperor Zhongzong, it had already caused dissatisfaction among many people in Chang'an City. Now that I have given you half of the imperial guards, those royal families will definitely be even more dissatisfied."

"Chang'an City has been more than 200 years, and all kinds of relationships are complicated. Even the imperial guards, I cannot believe it now. The maids and maids in the palace might pick up swords and kill my family."

"For two hundred years, there are also emperors who died of sudden illness in the palace."

Lin Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "The Imperial Guard and the Palace Platform are both in the hands of His Majesty. Logically speaking, there should be no problem in the palace."

The emperor lowered his eyebrows and said, "Your...copper coin guard also needs to protect my safety and my family's small family."

When Lin Zhao heard the emperor say the three words "Copper Coin Guard" in his mouth, he understood in his heart that Copper Coin Guard is no longer so secret.

However, it is not surprising that the Tongqianwei organization has appeared for several years, and there are activities everywhere in the world, especially in Chang'an City, where there are large-scale activities. It is impossible to keep it completely secret.

Lin Zhao took a deep breath and nodded, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will say hello to them."

"besides."

The emperor looked at Lin Zhao and said lightly: "I need a promise from Sanlang."

Lin Zhao lowered his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me."

"In the future, if Chang'an changes, you must save the lives of my teacher and my wife and children."

Speaking of this, the emperor paused and said lightly: "As for my life, if I have to die at that time, I can die."

Lin Sanlang was silent about it.

He looked at the emperor and said slowly: "From ancient times to the present, dynasties have changed, and there are two kings and three lords, if..."

"If the world is easier, Brother Dao will always be the King of Zhou in the new dynasty."

Speaking of this, it is basically stated clearly.

In fact, Lin Zhao had no choice.

Now, he has actually occupied all the essential areas in the north. As his power expands, he will inevitably have conflicts with the Li Zhou Dynasty.

Especially now that rebels have emerged in the northwest, the Pinglu army has been able to enter Guanzhong naturally. Lin can even control half of the imperial guards, making the world easier. Judging from the situation, it is even natural.

And the fact that Lin Zhao was able to say this sentence means that in his heart, he also acknowledged this fact.

The emperor looked at Lin Zhao and suddenly smiled.

"It's good to be alive. It's better if the King of Zhou is not King Zhou. One day, the new emperor was unhappy and gave us poisonous wine to our family. Wouldn't it be all over?"

Lin Zhao shook his head slightly.

"Your Majesty, you and I have been in love for more than ten years. You should know that I, Mr. Lin, never lie."

"Then I believe it."

The emperor patted Lin Zhao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Go, my King of Yue, I can't drive away these rebels, I can only rely on you."

Lin Zhao took two steps back and bowed respectfully to the emperor.

"I must... live up to the holy hope."

……………………

After the king and his ministers said goodbye, Lin Zhao rode a horse and caught up with the imperial guards who had already set off.

Soon, Lin Zhao found Zhao Fuping in the front army.

His Highness King Yue walked with the army for a long time. When it was dark, the army stopped and camped for rest.

Lin Zhao summoned Zhao Fuping in the commander's tent.

Prince Yue's face was calm and said, "Tomorrow morning, I will take the guards to Sanguan first to meet the other General Zhao of Pinglu Army, and learn about the specific situation of the Northwest rebels. You will lead these imperial guards and rush there slowly."

Zhao Fuping clasped his fists at Lin Zhao and said, "Subordinate to obey the order."

After saying this, Zhao Fuping lowered his head and said, "Prince, do you want your subordinates to accompany you?"

“No need.”

Lin Zhao glanced at Zhao Fuping and said, "Your mission is to take care of these imperial guards. If you want to turn to the Yue Palace now, write down your names and hand them to me. When you arrive at Sanguan, I will meet them one by one."

Speaking of this, Lin Zhao paused and spoke.

"We still have loyalty to the generals of the court, and don't make things difficult for them. We should fight the war next."

Zhao Fuping bowed respectfully: "I understand."

Lin Zhao lowered his eyebrows and said, "You can hurry up... you can be slower."

This sentence is to imply that Zhao Fuping, and to let him try his best to make the work of these imperial guards and generals clear before reaching Sanguan, and turn this imperial guard into a part of the Pinglu army as soon as possible.

"I understand."

Lin Zhao nodded.

"Okay, it's getting late, so you can go back and rest. I will leave someone in the military camp. If you have any help, you can contact him and he will do whatever he can."

"Thank you, Prince."

…………

The next morning, Lin Zhao took his guard and left the imperial guards and rushed towards Sanguan.

Chang'an is not close to Sanguan. Even if everyone rides horses, Lin Zhao rushed to Sanguan on the fourth day. At this time, Zhao Xie, the general guarding Sanguan, had already learned the news that Lin Zhao was coming. Before Lin Zhao's horse team arrived, he brought people to greet him on the official road.

Finally, a group of knights guarded Lin Zhao and ran along the official road to before Sanguan.

Zhao Xie and other generals of the Piaolu army respectfully knelt on the side of the road, bowed their heads to Lin Zhao and saluted: "Last generals, wait, pay homage to the prince."

Lin Zhao jumped off his mount, stepped forward and helped Zhao Xie and others up, shook his head slightly: "You don't have to be too polite, just get up."

After Prince Yue helped Zhao Xie up, he glanced at the Qingzhou general and asked, "Brother Zhao, what's the situation in the northwest?"

“Not very good.”

Zhao Xie looked serious. He glanced at Lin Zhao and lowered his head slightly and said, "Prince, at the beginning, we only had to deal with the Hexi Army and the Beiting Army. The battle was quite easy, but recently, there seemed to be more and more Tubo people among the rebels in the northwest."

"Yesterday, the scout found a large rebel army of thousands of people. All the entire army were Tubo people, and there was not a single Han person."

"My subordinates and others guess."

Zhao Xie's voice was low: "The Tubo people have already ended on a large scale."
