Chapter One Thousand Six Hundred and Sixty-One: Grasp the Current
Seeing such a uniform scene, none of the thousands of officials flinched from the battle, and they all firmly believed in him as the emperor. Zhu Biao felt moved in his heart.
This was a heavy feeling weighing on his heart, and he was also moved by this trust.
At this moment, Zhu Biao suddenly decided that he had ministers who trusted him so much. Even if he really lost to the fourth child this time, he would have no regrets.
"Hahaha" Zhu Biao stood up suddenly, "Okay, with the hearts of all of you who love me, I won't let you down! It's not that easy for the fourth child to attack the capital!"

This was a heavy feeling weighing on his heart, and he was also moved by this trust.
At this moment, Zhu Biao suddenly decided that he had ministers who trusted him so much. Even if he really lost to Lao Si this time, he had the support of so many ministers and he would have no regrets. .??.
"May your Majesty be victorious. Long live my Emperor!" The ministers bowed again.
Zhu Biao ordered to retreat, but Han Du stayed where he was.
"What's wrong? Do you have anything else to do?"
Han Du nodded, "Your Majesty, the Yan army can attack the city at any time. I want to strengthen the defense of Jinchuan Gate."
"Why Jinchuan Gate? Isn't Shence Gate also next to Jinchuan Gate?" Zhu Biao was a little surprised. Why did Han Du only strengthen Jinchuan Gate and ignore Shence Gate?
Han Du has always been meticulous in his actions, and it is impossible to miss the talents of the Shence Sect. This is not his style.
Han Du did not explain, but said meaningfully, "I also want to ask the emperor to secretly visit Jinchuan Gate to inspect the defense."
Zhu Biao noticed something in Han Du's words. After pondering for a while, he nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Zhu Di looked at the capital city that was just around the corner. He had been here countless times, but never once did he feel as strong as he does now!
In the past, the capital was just a home for him, a life with childhood memories, a place full of
A place full of bustle and laughter.
But now, in Zhu Di's eyes, the capital is the artifact between heaven and earth, this is the Great Seal, and this is the power to control the world!
With different mentality, the perspective of looking at things will naturally be different.
Zhu Di led the army to slowly advance not far from the city wall. Fighting? Of course, they couldn't fight.
He has received news that there are only 50,000 garrison troops in the capital, and he has millions of soldiers under his command, so it is difficult for him to be his enemy. He can fight at any time if he wants, but Zhu Di doesn't want to fight at this moment.
Zhu Di was now thinking about how to enter the capital in a legitimate manner, and then with the support of hundreds of officials and people, he refused again and again, and had no choice but to sacrifice to heaven and earth in Yuanqiu and sit on the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan!
Yes, Zhu Di was already imagining the scene of becoming emperor in his mind.
If this is the case, then the capital cannot use weapons without permission. It must leave a good impression on the officials and people of the capital, right?
It also allows the world to see the upright side of Zhu Di.
Seeing Zhu Di's subordinate approaching slowly, Li Jinglong's eyes showed a strange look. He lowered his head, turned around and walked down the city in silence.
The soldiers guarding the city were standing in the city gate, ready to stand ready.
Seeing Li Jinglong coming down, he quickly turned around and said, "Greetings, sir."
"Master"
"Master"
The sergeants greeted each other one after another, and when they saw Cao Guogong walking in, they stepped away as much as possible.
Li Jinglong stood still and pretended to sigh, "The Yan army is approaching the city."
"Please rest assured, sir, the general will definitely guard this gate and never let a Yan thief enter the city. If you want to enter the city, you have to step over the corpse of the general!"
"Yes, we will never let Yan steal the capital."
"I swear to guard the city gate to the death, and I am willing to live or die with this city!"
The soldiers' eyes were wide-eyed, and they had the fearlessness to tear off a piece of flesh from the Yan thief's body even though they knew he was going to die.
Li Jinglong looked surprised for a while. Did he mean this? He wanted to persuade these sergeants that those who understand current affairs are heroes.
Now that Yan's army is powerful, the capital is powerless. Opening the door to welcome King Yan is the shortcut to promotion and wealth!
"Ahem!" Li Jinglong was a little embarrassed by these sergeants.
Since you can't be convinced, just give the order directly.
Li Jinglong waved his hand, "The emperor has a decree to open the city gate and welcome King Yan into the palace!"
"Master, put it down, my subordinates will definitely fight to the death." The captain suddenly paused, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Looking at Duke Cao Guo, "Master, what did you just say?"
"Open the city gate!" Li Jinglong's voice was low.
"Sir, we haven't lost yet, and the Yan thief can't enter the city." The captain wanted to argue, but the sergeants behind him all looked at each other, and they couldn't believe what they just heard.
Li Jinglong lowered his eyes and shouted in a low voice, "This is the emperor's order. Do you dare to resist it?"
"I" the captain was startled for a moment, then relaxed weakly, "Okay"
Since it is the emperor's will, he can only abide by it no matter how unwilling he is. Besides, the emperor and King Yan are brothers to begin with, so maybe the two have already reached an agreement?
Just as he was about to wave to the sergeant to open the city gate, a voice suddenly came: "Stop!"
Li Jinglong turned around and saw a captain standing behind him. He glanced at the revolver on his waist and said lightly, "From Shanziying? How dare you come to take care of me?"
Zhao Wenqing smiled lightly and took out a golden order, "The Emperor has decreed that anyone who opens the city gate without permission shall be killed!"
The moment he saw Jin Ling, Li Jinglong panicked.
"My lord, this is it." The school captain guarding the city also became confused. Why, one moment, the prince sent an order to open the city gate, and the next moment, the school captain of Shanziying issued an order not to open the door?
There must be something weird in this. Either the captain is pretending to pass on the imperial edict, or the prince is
The captain subconsciously did not dare to think about it anymore, but from his own heart, he still felt that the city gate could not be opened!
Li Jinglong was keenly aware of the doubts of the sergeant behind him, and immediately shouted, "A top soldier from the Shanzi Battalion dares to falsely pass on the imperial edict? Come on, let me take it down!"
The guard sergeant subconsciously followed Li Jinglong's order, but Zhao Wenqing lifted the golden order and smiled slightly, "I have the golden order here, who dares to take me?"
The sergeant paused instantly. With Jin Ling on his side, as long as the opponent did not forcefully break into the city gate, even they could not capture the opponent without authorization.
Seeing that there was nothing he could do to defeat the opponent, Li Jinglong simply turned around and ordered the city guard sergeant again, "Listen to my order and open the door!"
These sergeants were originally led by Li Jinglong. Although they were very confused, they had military orders and they were going to open the city gate.
"Jiujiang, you really disappoint me."
A familiar word with a cold air came from behind, instantly making Li Jinglong's face turn pale and he broke out in cold sweat.
"Greetings to the emperor, long live my emperor!"
Everyone, except Li Jinglong, knelt down and worshiped.
Even the soldiers guarding the city felt relaxed. They didn't know what to do. The two decrees were completely opposite. One of them was always fake, but they couldn't tell the difference.
.
Well now, the emperor is here, there is no need to distinguish, whatever the emperor says is what it is.
"All the soldiers have worked hard and are safe!" Zhu Biao said with a grateful expression on his face and kindly extended his hands to everyone.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The city guard captain suddenly stood up and looked at Cao Guogong with a cold and stern look. He never expected that his immediate superior would actually want to open the city gate and surrender to the Yan thieves!
Zhao Wenqing took a few steps forward, came to Han Du's side, and presented the golden order with both hands.
Han Du smiled, reached out to take it, and turned his attention to Zhu Biao and Li Jinglong.
Zhu Biao had his hands behind his back and looked a little clumsy.
"Jiujiang, I treat you well! As soon as Brother Li leaves, you will inherit the title. After I ascend the throne, I will also give you many rewards and honors for your Cao Guogong lineage. Why do you want to betray me and join the fourth brother?
What exactly did he promise you?"
Li Jinglong said nothing.
Zhu Biao's anger suddenly surged, and he shouted sternly, "You won't say it, right? Okay, let's wait until you think about it."
"Take him down and keep him under strict supervision!" These words were spoken to the people in Yiluan Division around him.
The two guards walked up expressionlessly and drove Li Jinglong away, one at a time.
Zhu Biao then looked at the city gate guard, "What's your name?"
The guard was instantly overjoyed. Being able to be asked about his name by the emperor was something that his ancestors would have known for eighteen generations!
Well, although the army of Yan thieves is just outside the city, he may not survive the day when he becomes prosperous. But being able to be remembered by the emperor and then die, and not being known to the emperor after death, is one thing in heaven and the other on earth.
.
"The last general, Hu Shan, pays homage to the emperor."
"Hu Shan." Zhu Biao smiled and nodded calmly, "I saw your loyalty just now. Now you have to guard the city gate. No one can open the door without my order!"
"The general will obey the order!"
"Go." Zhu Biao waved his hand and asked the sergeant to guard the city gate.
After sending them away, Zhu Biao did not look back. He sighed and said lightly, "You asked me to come to Jinchuan Gate just to let me see this scene, right?"
Han Du took two steps forward, walked to Zhu Biao, and nodded with a warm smile, "I have no other choice. After all, Li Jinglong is a duke, and Li Wenzhong and the emperor are brothers."
Zhu Biao and Li Jinglong have always had a deep relationship. If he had reported that Li Jinglong had second thoughts, Zhu Biao would most likely not believe it.
It may even be counterproductive, making Zhu Biao think that he is driving a wedge between him and Li Jinglong.
Therefore, the best way is to let Zhu Biao see what he sees.
