"Who, who do you think killed him? What do you do for a living? Why didn't you find out in advance that the man named Zhang has a bad heart and a dog's lungs?!" Han Qing's eyes went dark again. In an instant, his heart hurt like a knife and his body trembled.
Like lotus leaves in the wind.
Without Li Jihe, he would have died on the Yongxing Army Road long ago. It would have been impossible to clear his name, nor would he have had the opportunity to marry Dou Rong and regain his own home. It would have been impossible to open his heart.
, Han Qing accepted the two worlds as her true existence, and then learned to cherish what she saw.
It was Li Jihe who personally pulled him back from the edge of the abyss. He found his place in the world again. He accepted himself, his family, and was accepted by the world in front of him.
To a certain extent, Li Jihe was both his bole and his true mentor. His influence on him far exceeded that of his Taixue teacher Zheng Changfeng, and also exceeded that of any elder around him, even his grandfather.
Han Chonggui.
This time he was ordered to return to Bianliang. He had always hoped to visit Li Jihe and listen to the old man's teachings to him again. However, Li Jihe never allowed him to visit because he wanted to avoid suspicion!
He originally thought that after he finished handling the trivial matters at hand, he would be able to create an opportunity to meet Li Jihe in the wild. But he did not expect that the old general would pass away so soon!
"Jiajun, my condolences. The old general must be avenged, but Wang Xiang said that what is more important now is to protect the imperial concubine and the emperor's eldest son, and break out of the city to join the officials." Lest Han Qing be hit by the bad news.
He had to lose his mind, so Yang Xu gently pulled him and reminded him in a low voice.
"Brother Zhang has already met Wang Xiang? Does Wang Xiang have any more specific arrangements?" Han Qing was staggered by him, and his mind regained a little clarity. He suppressed the grief in his heart and asked with red eyes.
Because he had not had much contact with Li Jihe before, at this moment, Yang Xu was much calmer than Han Qing. After thinking about it, he responded in a low voice, "Zhang Du Yuhou was sent to Kaifeng Mansion by Shi Gandang. Zhang Du and I
Yuhou was ordered by the Wang Xiang to sneak back to the imperial city from Jinshui Gate while the rebels were not paying attention. The Wang Xiang sent Zhe Weizhong to attack the rebels' retreat, on the one hand, in order to alleviate the rebels' attack on Xuande Gate.
On the other hand, the offensive is to create opportunities for us to enter the palace and warn you and Liu Douzhi."
After giving Han Qing and Liu Chenggui a little time to digest the information he brought, he took a breath and continued to add, "The brothers who just followed Judge Zhe to attack, except for the sons of the left and right armies of Kaifeng Mansion, are
The troops of the Pai'an Division. Currently, the total number of troops that can be gathered in Kaifeng Mansion is about two thousand. Wang Xiang believes that if the reinforcements cannot arrive in time, even if he and Zhe Weizhong fully respond to your side, the imperial city will be destroyed by the rebels.
Breaking through has become a foregone conclusion. Therefore, he proposed that both sides light up smoke as a signal at noon. He and Zhe Weizhong led the Kaifeng Mansion troops to give King Yong a full blow from behind to hold back the rebels. Liu Douzhi and you,
Lead the brothers in the imperial city and the eldest son of the emperor who is protecting the imperial concubine to break out of Bianliang and rush to Huazhou to join the officials."
This is probably the only way. Without the hope of standing still and waiting for help, the palace guards, eunuchs, and servants in the imperial city will definitely not be able to behave as bravely as before.
This has been proven by the reaction of King Yong just now when he announced that Li Jihe had died due to illness, and the morale of the palace guards and eunuchs plummeted.
According to Zhang Huan's cry, the murderer who poisoned Li Jihe was Zhang Tingyu, the commander of the right wing. It can be predicted that it won't be long before Zhang Tingyu leads the right wing of the Zhenrong Army to Bianliang. However, it is not the former.
Come to protect the imperial city, but come to help King Yong!
In this way, it is even more foolish to think that the imperial city will not be breached by the rebels before the officials lead a large army of troops to fight back.
"In which direction to break out of the encirclement, has Prime Minister Wang given any reminders or arrangements? What is the reaction now of the civil and military officials in the city, or the Zhao royal family? It's already dawn, they should be able to understand what King Yong is doing, right?"
Wiping the tears from his face, Han Qing asked Yang Xu with some expectation,
Since the imperial city cannot be defended, there is nothing to hesitate about. It is just a breakout, but it cannot be a random charge without direction.
It is very important to find out whether the guard of that city gate is just a confederate with King Yong. Which other forces in the city can provide support or facilitate him.
"Xiang Wang said that Lu Bojian, the guard of Wangchunmen (old Caomen), was the nephew of the late Tongpingzhang Zhengshi (prime minister) Lu Mengzheng. His father and brother were all accompanying the officials. He himself should
The rebels will not be united. But outside Wangchun Gate, the road is flat and there are no bridges or rivers. You can go straight to Xincao Gate along the street." Yang Xu was well prepared and immediately gave the answer to the previous question.
Then, he shook his head with a wry smile, "As for the civil and military officials in the city, let's just say that the only ones who can help are the top ten generals. And it is the chiefs and pillars of the top ten generals, including the elders of our two families, at this moment
They either went on an expedition with the officials themselves, or were ordered to lead troops to garrison along the Yellow River. None of them stayed in Bianliang City! As for the royal family, the Prime Minister said that even if King Yong becomes the emperor, they will still be relatives of the emperor!"
"Understood!" Han Qing felt cold in his heart, but he forced himself to nod to Yang Xu calmly. Then he turned to Liu Chenggui and gently cupped his hands towards him, "You know, Liu, what do you think of Prime Minister Wang's proposal?"
?”
"Now that the matter has come to this, do I have any other choice?" Liu Chenggui's face was ashen and his heart was ashen. He sighed and nodded with a wry smile, "I will send someone to arrange a car and invite the imperial concubine, the eldest son of the emperor and the queen mother.
Just get on the train. Brothers in the imperial city who are willing to give it a try, we will take them with us. If those who are willing to stay and serve King Yong, let us not make it difficult for them..."
Just as he was halfway through speaking, there was suddenly a burst of noisy footsteps not far away, followed immediately by a drake's voice from behind the moon door leading to the inner palace, "The Queen Mother is here, no one else needs to stay away."
Liu Chenggui, the Queen Mother asked you to come forward and reply!"
"The Queen Mother? Who asked the Queen Mother to come out? What if she is disturbed?" Liu Chenggui's face suddenly changed, he took out the sword given to him by the official, and shouted loudly, "Huang Hao, send the Queen Mother to the car first. Han Dynasty Courtyard, here
Leave it to you. I will go and invite the imperial concubine and the eldest son of the emperor!"
"Yes!" Huang Hao, the vice-president of Zuoban Duzhi, agreed, and with more than twenty close confidants, they picked up weapons and blocked the Moon Gate.
Others don't know what role Empress Dowager Li played in King Yong's rebellion. But he and Liu Chenggui knew it well.
Previously, Liu Chenggui punished the rebels in the imperial city, and most of those killed were close associates of Queen Mother Li.
Liu Chenggui was worried about affecting the morale of the army, so he did not announce the Queen Mother's crime to the outside world. He only sent more than a hundred guards, eunuchs and servants to put Queen Mother Li under house arrest in the palace to prevent her from providing support to King Yong.
But she never expected that the guards, eunuchs and servants would be drawn over by Empress Dowager Li so quickly and become her minions!
"Liu Chenggui, do you want to plot rebellion?" Empress Dowager Li's ability and courage far exceeded Liu Chenggui's expectations. Before Huang Hao and his guards could reach her, she took the initiative to greet her with a sword. "Separate the imperial city and slander.
King Yong, who gave you the courage to put the Ai family under house arrest? Emperor Taizu and the officials regard you as their confidant, and this is how you repay them?"
