Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Li Wu finally showed a strange smile on his face and waved his hand: "Take them under custody and hand them over to the Criminal Department for trial later. Hehe, the Criminal Department is too busy at the moment and has no time to interrogate them."
The Yulin Guards of Taiji Camp agreed and would take Gong Yangyue and the others with them.
Suddenly I heard a voice that said calmly: "Deputy General Guard Li, you are from the Tai Chi Camp, it is inappropriate to come to our Fenghuo Camp to arrest people!" Although the voice was calm, it brought endless power to the Fenghuo Camp.
, the soldiers of Fenghuo Camp were heard shouting loudly: "Deputy General Guard Xue, Deputy General Guard Xue, Deputy General Guard Xue...!" At that moment, hundreds of Yulin guards nearby raised their arms and shouted.
In the light of the fire, I saw a horse slowly approaching. Although the rider on the horse was lightly dressed, he was fierce and powerful. His face that looked like a smile but not a smile gave people great fear.
While Gong Yangyue and Zhao Tianda showed surprise on their faces, Li Wu's expression suddenly became extremely ugly. The corners of his eyes twitched, and he looked at Xue Poye who was slowly approaching in amazement, but for a moment he didn't know what to do.
"Don't let them go yet!" Xue Poye walked closer and looked sharply at the Taiji Camp Yulin guards who were binding the two captains. When the Yulin guards saw Xue Poye's sharp eyes, they felt chills in their hearts.
, and slowly retreated.
The Yulin Guards of Fenghuo Camp were all extremely happy. Seeing the return of the Deputy Chief Guard, everyone was full of fighting spirit and actually once again surrounded all the Yulin Guards of Taiji Camp, including Li Wu.
Li Wu finally came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It turns out that Deputy General Guard Xue is back. Hehe, it's great. Your subordinates made trouble and I was going to help you deal with it. Since Deputy General Xue
Now that Wei is back, it’s up to Deputy General Wei Xue to handle it himself.”
Xue Poye sat on the horse and seemed to have no intention of dismounting. He held the riding whip tightly in his hand and said calmly: "Committing rebellion? Deputy General Guard Li, my subordinates have always been very well-behaved. They only know how to serve the country with loyalty and protect the safety of the palace."
, you are talking about committing trouble, but you don’t know where to start? In this way, as long as Deputy General Wei Li speaks out, I will naturally punish him severely, otherwise... Hehe, Deputy General Wei Li, I am not the Fenghuo Camp either
It’s a place where you can come and go as you please.”
Li Wu's face turned cold, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but on the surface he remained calm and said: "I see that General Guard Teng and Deputy General Guard Xue are not in Yulin Camp. Now is an extraordinary period, so I want to temporarily take charge of Fenghuo Camp."
, Haojiao Yulin and the three battalions work together to protect the palace."
"This is a good thing." Xue Poye touched his nose and said, "Are my subordinates trying to hinder it?"
Li Wu was stunned, his eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and he nodded: "It turns out that Deputy General Guard Xue also thinks the same way, haha, heroes really think alike. Yes, this is a good thing, but these two men under your command
He is called a captain, but he obstructs me in every possible way, and even makes disrespectful remarks about me. What is this but an act of rebellion?"
Xue Poye said "Oh", with a weird smile on his face, and said: "All kinds of obstructions? Oh, by the way, Deputy General Guard Li, can you bring out the imperial edict or the General Guard's order? If there is any
If they dare to interfere with any of these two things in every possible way, I will not let them go and will kill them personally here."
Li Wu sneered and said: "Your Majesty has passed away, General Wei Teng is seriously ill, but I don't have those two things."
“Liwu!”
Your subordinates rebelled against your superiors, what is your intention?"
Hundreds of Yulin from the Fenghuo camp, holding steel knives in their hands, gradually approached, compressing Li Wu and others into a very small circle. Some people had already stepped forward to untie the ropes that tied Gong Yangyue and Zhao Tianda.
Li Wu never expected that Xue Poye would appear at such a critical moment. The plan to seize power that was already going smoothly was about to succeed. Xue Poye came out from behind, and everything came to nothing. He was furious, but Feng Huo
There were so many people in the camp, and it seemed like everyone wanted to tear themselves apart. I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so I pretended to be calm and said: "When troops are approaching the city, it is urgent to obey the authority. Deputy General Guard Xue should understand."
"You knew that the army was approaching the city, and you didn't lead the troops to go to the palace to protect you, but you are fighting for power here. Deputy General Guard Li, you really have a lot of time." Xue Poye sneered: "Here, please ask Li first.
The deputy chief guard and the others went down to drink tea, and after the matter is over, they will be handed over to the Criminal Department for trial. Now...hehe, I'm afraid the Criminal Department doesn't have time now."
This is what Li Wu said just now. When it came out of Xue Poye's mouth, it was full of irony.
Zhao Tianda was holding back his anger when Xue Poye gave an order and a guy kicked the ball to the knee of a Tai Chi Yu Lin. The Yu Lin guard gritted his teeth and couldn't bear the pain, so he knelt down.
On the ground, two Fenghuo Yulin suddenly rushed up beside him and pushed him to the ground. The other Yulins started to take down all the people in the Taiji camp, but they heard Li Wu shout loudly: "Stop!" He was full of anger.
This sudden drink shocked everyone.
But the Yulin Guards are not people who are afraid of trouble. Although they paused, Li Wu's influence in Fenghuo Camp was almost zero. Even if he had influence, it was negative, so no one paid attention to his "action".
Still, two people were pressed.
Xue Poye raised his hand and said loudly: "Brothers, wait a moment and see what other instructions Deputy General Guard Li has!"
Li Wu's face was gloomy. He looked at Xue Poye, who was sitting majestically on the horse, and said slowly: "Deputy General Guard Xue, can you take a step to speak."
"Take a step to speak?"
Li Wu said calmly: "What I want to say to Deputy General Wei Xue really cannot be stated clearly."
Although Xue Poye knew that Li Wu was one of the three deputy chief guards of the Yulin Forest and his skills were very hard, he was not afraid at all. He was completely confident that he could defeat Li Wu in a one-on-one situation.
After thinking for a while, he got off the horse and said: "Deputy General Wei Li is so mysterious, I am very curious, please!" He walked to a slightly quieter place nearby.
Li Wu walked over slowly and said straight to the point: "Deputy General Guard Xue, do you want glory and wealth, a high official and a generous salary, or do you want to die without a burial place?"
Xue Poye touched his nose and said calmly: "What does Deputy General Wei Li want to say?"
"If you want to die without a burial place, just detain us." Li Wu said: "As long as the fourth prince conquers Kyoto City, you should understand your fate even if I don't tell you."
"Fourth Prince...it turns out that Deputy General Guard Li is the Fourth Prince's man!" Xue Poye said with a gesture of sudden realization.
Li Wu said with some pride: "Yes, now that things have happened, I can admit that I am the Fourth Prince's person."
Xue Poye touched his nose and said deliberately curiously: "As far as I know, our Yulin Camp is a imperial guard under the direct control of the Holy Emperor. It is extremely difficult for outside forces to get in, and the Holy Emperor is most taboo about Yulin Camp officials having contact with each other.
Even if there is any connection with any outside force, how did Deputy General Wei Li get involved with the Fourth Prince?"
Li Wu didn't seem to be shy about explaining this situation, and there was a look of pride in his eyes: "When the Holy Emperor was ill, the fourth prince came to me secretly. What he meant... Hehe, in short, our Yulin Camp
They are the imperial guards loyal to the royal family, and the fourth prince is also a member of the royal family. There is nothing wrong with being loyal to the fourth prince...!"
Xue Poye sighed and said: "After the death of the Holy Emperor, Deputy General Guard Li wants to seek a new backer. This does not seem wrong. However, the prince is the orthodox prince of Dachu, and Deputy General Guard Li has taken refuge with the fourth prince, right?
Are you on the wrong team?"
"Prince?" Deputy General Wei Li made no secret of his disdain for the prince: "He originally wanted to buy me for a hundred taels of gold. Could it be that I, Li Wu, was only worth a hundred taels of gold? At that time, I was loyal to the Holy Emperor and sternly refused.
Bi has already offended him. If he ascends to the throne of Dabao, how can I, Li Wu, live a good life?"
"It turns out that the prince gave me less." Xue Poye understood: "The prince should have given out one thousand taels of gold at that time."
Li Wu was a little embarrassed, but this embarrassment only lasted for a second. He was gone in an instant, and he came slightly closer and said: "As far as I know, Deputy General Wei Xue and the Crown Prince seem to have some misunderstandings. Doesn't Deputy General Wei Xue have some misunderstandings?"
I have thought that once the prince gains power, you will probably be in great trouble. I think that no one in the civil and military circles of the court will have trouble with the new emperor because of the mere Deputy Chief Guard Yulin."
Xue Poye chuckled and said, "What Deputy General Wei Li said seems to make sense."
Li Wu even came closer and said: "Vice General Guard Xue, if you just sit back and wait for death, you might as well take the initiative to attack. It is said that a good bird chooses a tree and a wise minister meets a wise master and assists him. The fourth prince understands righteousness and has unparalleled benevolence. As long as Vice President Xue
If Wei joins the Fourth Prince, there is no guarantee that he will be prosperous and wealthy in the future."
Xue Poye sighed deliberately, shook his head and said: "Fourth Prince... Hey, I'm afraid there are some misunderstandings between me and the Fourth Prince."
"Don't worry, Deputy General Guard Xue." Li Wu patted his chest and said, "You and I both belong to the Yulin camp. Li Wu will come forward to explain the misunderstanding between you and the fourth prince."
Xue Poye chuckled and said: "It seems that Deputy General Wei Li has really surrendered to the Fourth Prince." He paused, frowned and said: "But I didn't know that General Wei Teng suddenly fell seriously ill and had a relationship with Deputy General Wei Li.
Doesn’t matter?”
Li Wu also frowned, pondered for a moment, and finally said: "General Guard Teng knew my identity, so he had to get sick. He was poisoned, but he can't die. We will wait until the Fourth Prince's army enters the city, and then we will interrogate him."
he."
Xue Poye sighed: "General Guard Teng is smart and capable, but he is defeated by Deputy General Guard Li. Deputy General Guard Li is really powerful."
Li Wu raised his head and looked at the sky, with a hint of anxiety on his face, and asked: "Deputy General Guard Xue, Li Wu is very honest with you, but he wants to do something big with you. As for how to make a decision,
It depends on what you mean. If Deputy General Wei Xue really wants to vote for the Fourth Prince, then he must make a decision quickly. You and I still have big things to do."
"What's the big deal?"
Li Wu hesitated and did not answer immediately.
Xue Poye smiled and said: "Deputy General Wei Li, if you want to convince me, you must show your sincerity."
"Deputy Commander Xue, do you mean that you are willing to join the Fourth Prince?"
Xue Poye said calmly: "At least let me know whether your so-called big thing is worth taking the risk. Although the fourth prince is powerful now, the prince is the orthodox in the world. Before the fourth prince truly succeeds, he can only be regarded as
...Rebels!”
Li Wu thought for a moment and looked back at the subordinates controlled by Fenghuoying. He knew in his heart that at this time, he could either convince Xue Poye to become his ally and then complete the major task entrusted by the fourth prince, or become Xue Poye
The prisoner of the lower class.
Once the mission entrusted by the Fourth Prince is not completed and the rebels capture Kyoto City, the Fourth Prince, with his eccentric personality, will definitely take the responsibility for the loss of troops and generals on his own head. At that point, there will be a dead end, so no matter what, he must
Convince Xue Poye to join forces.
He really regrets it now. If he had known that Xue Poye would suddenly appear, he would not have brought just a few people to Fenghuo Camp to seize power. What seemed like a heroic move before has now turned into a fight between a bear and a stick.
stupid things.
"Join forces together, control the palace, cooperate inside and outside, and welcome the fourth prince!" After a long time, Li Wu said every word.
Xue Poye stared at Li Wu and said coldly: "So Deputy General Guard Li wants to control the palace and kidnap the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince?"
"In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things!" Li Wu said coldly, stretched out his hand and said, "Are you willing to do it?"
"The duty of our Yulin camp is to protect the palace, the queen mother, and the prince, but Deputy General Guard Li wants to do the opposite. This...hey, is it still the Yulin camp?" Xue Poye smiled half-heartedly, Tan
When you move your hand, it suddenly changes from the palm to the fingers, which is exactly the ecstasy fingering method.
Li Wu didn't expect that Xue Poye would change his face as soon as he said it. Under normal circumstances, although his ability may not be better than Xue Poye's, he still has the ability to deal with hundreds of moves. It's just that Xue Poye was unexpected and so fast.
It was astonishing, and the fingering he thrust out was extremely weird. A burst of energy had already penetrated into Li Wu's left shoulder. Li Wu felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder. Knowing that he had found Xue Poye's clue, he shouted loudly and wanted to
He pulled out the sword, but heard a "choking" sound. Before his hand touched the handle of the knife, Xue Poye pointed and broke the knife rope, and the big knife fell to the ground.
Li Wu was shocked and angry. It seemed that he had lost everything with one move today. He gritted his teeth and had to give it a try. Although he was at the end of the light crossbow, if he was lucky enough to win Xue Po at this time, he was shocked and angry.
Ye, using him as a threat, may still have the possibility to change the situation.
But this extravagant hope soon turned into disappointment.
Xue Poye's ecstasy fingering technique was unpredictable. Between the virtual and the real, with fierce energy, he quickly sealed more than ten acupoints of Li Wu. The dignified deputy general guard of Tai Chi Camp, the deputy general guard of Fenghuo Camp
Under the sudden attack, he was restrained in an instant.
The officers and soldiers of Fenghuo Camp suddenly cheered loudly, and the sound spread far and wide. Everyone admired Xue Poye. After all, not many people could restrain Li Wu in an instant, even if it was unexpected.
It can be done.
Xue Poye looked at Li Wu who was collapsed on the ground, sighed, shook his head and said: "If you want to rebel, Deputy General Wei Li has the courage, but I, Xue Poye, don't. Xue Poye is an honest man and can't do big things.
.It’s just...it’s just that Deputy General Wei Li dared to come to Fenghuo Camp to seize power and instigate rebellion. I don’t know if you are too courageous or...too stupid!”
Li Wu's face was ashen, but there was deep fear in his eyes, even inexplicable pleading for mercy.
Xue Poye naturally ignored this mixed expression, walked up to Zhao Tianda, waved his hand and said: "Vice General Wei Li is not feeling well, take him and his subordinates to have a good rest." After a pause, he stared at Zhao Tianda and said seriously.
: "Let the brothers protect you. After the rebels are pacified, Master Teng will come out to talk to Deputy General Wei Li."
Although Zhao Tianda was straightened, he understood what Xue Poye said. The so-called "rest" was just a temporary detention. With a wave of his hand, several Yulin guards stepped forward to tie up Li Wu who was lying on the ground, and then with him
The Taiji camp officers and soldiers, Li Wu and others were all taken away.
The soldiers of Fenghuo Camp were very happy, but Gong Yangyue frowned, stepped forward and whispered: "Sir, Li Wu is the deputy chief guard of Taiji Camp. If we imprison him... will we offend Taiji Camp?"
mutiny?"
Xue Poye touched his nose and looked up at the dark night sky. There was not a single star. It seemed that the rebels were approaching the city, and the frightened stars did not dare to show their faces.
"If the people from Taiji Camp don't come, I will go!"
, ordered all the troops and horses to be transferred to the palace, and ordered that the nine gates of the palace be strictly guarded, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."
Gong Yangyue immediately obeyed the order and ordered Captain Yu Lin to order all the troops and horses and quickly marched towards the palace.
"Ask a few brothers to follow me to Tai Chi Camp." Xue Poye touched his nose and said, "There are still a bunch of brothers there. I will always order them to go and guard the palace."
"Sir!" Gong Yangyue said in shock: "You...you want to go to the Tai Chi camp?"
The deputy chief guard of Tai Chi Camp came to Feng Huo Camp and was knocked down and imprisoned. However, Xue Poye, the deputy chief guard of Feng Huo Camp, wanted to take only a few people to Tai Chi Camp at this time. This is too crazy.
There are thousands of feathers in the Taiji camp. Once they know that their deputy general guard has been controlled by Xue Poye, and see Xue Poye coming, they may tear Xue Poye into pieces.
"I was just saying that it was a bit stupid for Li Wu to come to Fenghuo Camp to seize power in an arrogant and domineering manner, but... hehe, now I am going to Tai Chi Camp to organize the army, isn't it also stupid?" Xue Poye said with a smile.
: "Maybe it's really stupid, but if I don't go, maybe the brothers in the Tai Chi Camp will be used by others... I have always believed that the brothers in the Yulin Third Camp are all warriors loyal to the royal family!"
Gong Yangyue looked at Xue Poye with doubts, his eyes gradually changed from doubts to admiration, and said: "My lord, I humbly accompany you."
"No." Xue Poye waved his hand and said, "It's a big deal for you to lead the troops to protect the palace. If the fourth prince doesn't see any movement from Li Wu, I'm afraid he will have to attack the city in advance. The combat effectiveness of the garrison is far inferior to that of the rebels, and they are both hostile to us.
There is a huge disparity in power, and the four gates of Kyoto may soon be breached. We, the Habayashi Guards, are the last barrier to protect the imperial court, so all our energy must be devoted to the task of protecting the palace."
Gongyang Yue knew in his heart that what Xue Poye said was reasonable. He gritted his teeth and said respectfully: "I obey my orders, sir... take care of yourself!" He then ordered more than ten Yulin elites to follow Xue Poye, and together with Zhao Tianda, he led
Lieutenant Yulin from the Fenghuo Camp mobilized their troops to guard the palace.
At this time, Xue Poye had faintly heard the sound of war drums and horns ringing outside Kyoto!dd
