Zhao Kuo held a sword in his hand and strode towards the corridor. He was about to rush into the lobby, but was stopped by several guards in front of the corridor with their swords drawn.
At this time, the door of the lobby was not closed, and Zhao Kuo's eyes were staring gloomily into the lobby where the candles were burning brightly.
Han Daoming and Han Daochang stood under Xinchang Hou Li Pu. When they saw Zhao Kuo trying to break in, they shouted in a deep voice: "Zhao Kuo, what are you going to do?"
Zhao Kuo pushed his saber behind him and said: "If you hadn't been ordered to see Wen Muqiao, we wouldn't have been able to get through the Donghuamen Water Pass so easily. Please, the eldest and second lords, think twice."
"What do you want to say?" Han Daoming's face darkened.
Zhao Kuo continued: "Wang Wenqian and King Xin can issue a proclamation and invite the people of the world to punish the witch in Anning Palace. Marquis Li of Xinchang and the concubine can issue a proclamation and invite the people in the world to punish the witch in Anning Palace."
Ni, but the eldest master, the second master, if you are involved in this matter, the young master will definitely not spare you!"
"Asshole, it's your turn for a slave to talk nonsense about such a big matter?" Seeing that Zhao Kuo dared to threaten them with Han Qian, Han Daoming was so angry that the veins on his forehead jumped, and he ordered the Korean soldiers guarding the courtyard outside to shout, "
Get rid of this wanton servant quickly, he is really an embarrassment to our Han family!"
"No need to trouble you!" Zhao Kuo stared at the few soldiers around Han Jun, not angry and intimidating, so that these people would not dare to step forward, grab him and drag him out.
"We are helpless. Please understand, Mr. Zhao." Several soldiers said apologetically and extended their hands to ask him to go out by himself.
"Please forgive Zhao Kuo for not being able to serve the old master," Zhao Kuo cupped his hands towards Han Wenhuan and then said to Zhao Wuji, "Zhao Wuji, please lead the young Xi family to follow me!"
"Excuse me?" Han Laoshan's thoughts were still lingering on Zhao Kuo's rebuke to the people in the hall, and he stood on the spot as if struck by lightning.
At this time, he also understood what was going to happen next.
What Xinchanghou and the others have to do is actually, regardless of whether His Majesty is forced to accept the reality and whether he decides to pass on the throne to the Crown Prince, they will represent the third prince, Prince Tan, to spread the word to the world, announcing to the world that the An Ning Palace and the Crown Prince have rebelled, imprisoned, and harmed His Majesty.
Regarding the matter, cut off the last line of mediation and possibility of compromise with the Ning Ning Palace and the prince!
This is equivalent to cutting off Han Daoxun's last chance of survival.
But where is Zhao Kuo taking Zhao Wuji to go at this time?
Feng Liao looked at Zhao Kuo with dark eyes for a while, and finally said to Jiang Huo: "Mr. Jiang, without the Jinyun Ring in your hand, Wuji and the others would not be able to contact Yingque when they sneaked into the city."
Jiang Huo sighed softly, took off an iron ring from his hand and handed it to Zhao Wuji, and then told him the names of a few key people.
Han Jun and Han Duan realized at this time that Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wuji were going to sneak into Jinling City with their people and wait for an opportunity to rescue the third uncle. They could blast Zhao Kuo and the others out to prevent them from running wild here, but they could not stop them.
The man took the man and sneaked into the city.
Besides, although Zhao Kuo's unbridled words made them angry, they also aroused the fear deep in their hearts. They comforted themselves in their hearts, saying that if Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wuji could really rescue the third uncle from the city, they would also have an explanation for Han Qian.
Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wuji led the people away, and Feng Liao could only help Han Wenhuan to retreat first.
At this point, what he can do next is very limited. After Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wuji leave, not many people will listen to his instructions. He can only watch the most tragic scene slowly unfold.
prelude.
Sometimes the situation always seems to have a glimmer of hope and is worth taking a chance on, but in the blink of an eye, the chance of survival is ruined by a group of people.
Has Han Qian seen through these things a long time ago, and have these people planned for the worst case scenario from the beginning?
It’s just that Han Daoxun is always unwilling to give in, right?
Feng Liao had always been resentful that the Feng family had caused trouble. He wished that the Yang family's father and son would kill each other. But now that he was seeing chaos coming, he felt no relief at all.
Feng Liao glanced at the dark starry sky, wondering how long it would take for the dark night to be lifted.
Han Jun and Han Duan hesitated, wondering whether they should retreat first. Before they left, they saw a guard coming from the hall of the palace and said: "Madam, the Marquis invites the two young masters to come into the hall.
Discussion."
Feng Liao turned around and looked at Han Jun and Han Duan. He just smiled in his heart. He looked at Han Wenhuan and whispered: "The Marquis of Xinchang thought that if he pulled the eldest master and the second master into their warship and stood together with them, he could
What is the use?"
"I'm old, who will listen to me, a dying man?" Han Wenhuan whispered as if he was talking to himself, and walked out tremblingly.
Feng Liao turned around and saw Han Daoming's thin face in the lobby, which was extremely dimly illuminated by the candle lamp. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, but he said nothing more.
…………
…………
Han Jun, Han Duan, the concubine, and Xinchang Hou Li Pu stayed to discuss the matter, which made them tortured for most of the day. Their hearts were so painful that they wanted to moan, and their whole bodies were cheered up like a shot in the arm.
After all the people in the courtyard were cleared, Xinchang Hou Li Pu shouted into the side room next door: "Governor Yin, please come out?"
Only then did Han Jun see Yin Peng, the governor of Chuzhou Pavilion, wearing a cloth robe, opening the curtain and walking into the public hall. Feng Liao and Zhao Kuo clearly said that this person had crossed the river to the north bank with Wang Wenqian, but they did not expect that he was actually in Qiu at this moment.
Lakes and mountains.
"Madam, Mr. Li Hou, the news from Yin Peng did not deceive you, did it?" Yin Peng bowed and asked, "Madam, Mr. Li Hou has made a decision at this time, right?"
Wang Wenqian and Yin Peng only evacuated the Chuzhou troops out of the city in the afternoon so that they would be persecuted during the Jinling Rebellion. However, the secret agents who had been lurking for these years still stayed in the city to keep an eye on the most critical few.
Line.
Anning Palace controlled Chongli Gate in the afternoon, but did not make targeted deployments to Wenmu Bridge, the Zuowu Guards that Wen Bo and his son could control, and everyone from the Xinchang Hou Mansion escorted the concubine and the young princess out of the city, and Feng Liao accompanied Han Wenhuan to the capital.
Zhaofu Yamen met with Han Daoxun, but Han Daoxun finally went to see Wen Muqiao with Zhou Bin, the official of the Internal Affairs Bureau, and Feng Liao and Zhao Kuo escorted Han Wenhuan to Lanting Lane and other matters, which were all reported to Wang Wenqian through secret channels at the first time.
There.
The gathering of these many pieces of news can only indicate one possibility, that is, Emperor Tianyou has been controlled by Anning Palace, and Wen Muqiao, Han Daoxun and others may have had no choice but to choose to compromise with Anning Palace.
However, this is definitely not a result Chuzhou can accept!
Although Wang Wenqian did not know at the time that Xinchang Hou Li Pu had quietly sneaked back to Jinling, the concubine Shi and Princess Tan all evacuated to Qiuhu Mountain, and the Taowu Jitun Camp Military Office was also mobilizing at an unbelievable speed.
Yin Peng and others think that there are two possibilities for this matter. One is that Han Daoxun asked Qiuhushan to be prepared in order to negotiate better compromise terms with An Ning Palace, and the other is that Han Daoxun and other members of the Third Prince's family
Characters diverge.
However, Wang Wenqian had conducted in-depth research on Han Daoxun and other important figures in the Third Prince's line. Unless Shen Yang had sneaked back to Jinling and secretly cooperated with Han Daoxun, there was only the second possibility.
Yin Peng rushed to Qiuhu Mountain urgently, and on behalf of Wang Wenqian, he lobbied the Third Prince and his troops in Jinling to work with Chuzhou to spread the word to the Anning Palace to protest against the rebellion; and he must issue the appeal as soon as possible for the best effect. .
Han Daoming, Han Daochang and even Zheng Chang are all outstanding figures. When they saw Wang Wenqian representing Wang Wenqian and Yin Peng representing Chuzhou appearing in Qiuhu Mountain, they all understood what was going on.
What's more, Zhao Kuo had already made everything clear before.
Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, looked at Han Daoming and Han Daochang and asked: "Your Majesty is imprisoned in the Anning Palace, controls the palace, and wants to usurp the Chu Kingdom Zuo. How should you two decide?"
"Your Majesty is here, only your Majesty will take care of everything." Han Daoming said in a deep voice.
Han Daochang had no official status, so he simply sat aside and said nothing.
"Where is Master Zheng?" Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, looked at Zheng Chang and asked him for his opinion.
Currently, the Zheng family is with the third prince, and Zheng Hui, the commander of Zuo Longque Army, has the most authority. However, Zheng Hui is in Tanzhou at this time, and only Zheng Chang can represent the Zheng family at this time.
Han Daoxun represents the Han family, and Zheng Chang represents the Zheng family. In addition, his Xin Changhou Mansion and the concubine made the decision jointly, so it was not Han Qian's turn to jump out and criticize him for being arbitrary.
"Master Wang Wenqian, where are the others?" Zheng Chang asked, staring at Yin Peng.
"My lord has already gone to Tangyi." Yin Peng said.
"If Mr. Wang Wenqian is not here, it will be difficult to plan big things!" Zheng Chang laughed, looked at Xinchang Hou Li Pu and said, "Master Li Hou, what do you think?"
Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, then changed his mind and wanted to understand what Zheng Chang meant.
If they are so eager to spread the word and revolt, what if King Xin goes back on his word and goes to negotiate peace with the Anning Palace?
In that case, wouldn't they be put on the stove?
Yin Peng was obviously not qualified to stay as a hostage.
But Wang Wenqian had already gone to Tangyi County on the north bank of the river. At this time, he sent someone across the river to invite Wang Wenqian to come over. Even if he could find Wang Wenqian immediately, he would have to wait until at least noon tomorrow. Take Wang Wenqian over.
If the Anning Palace forces Emperor Tianyou to issue an imperial edict tonight, and immediately promulgates it to nearby prefectures and counties, wouldn't they lose the opportunity?
Wen Muqiao, Wen Bo and his son have most likely already sided with Anning Palace. They can decide the choices of many courtiers. The five or six hours between now and tomorrow noon are really critical.
Xinchang Hou Li Pu hesitated, wondering whether it was appropriate to put pressure on Yin Peng, but he could not ignore Zheng Chang's opinion.
"That bitch from Anning Palace has been holding grudges for many years. Once he vents them out, he will no longer hold back. His message will be sent out before dawn." At this time, Mrs. Shifei Wang could no longer sit still and urged Li Pu, Zheng Chang, and Han Daoming. Make decisions early.
"Concubine Shi, please be patient. Wang Wenqian is such a smart person and the situation is so critical. If he only dares to hide in Tangyi County in the north of the Yangtze River, then there is really no need for us to seek trouble with Chuzhou." Zheng Chang saluted Mrs. Wang Wenqian, the concubine. .
"Is Lord Wang around?" Xinchang Hou Li Pu asked, staring at Yin Peng.
Seeing that he could not hide it from the sophisticated Zheng Chang, Yin Peng also knew that the opportunity could not be delayed, so he said directly: "I will send someone to inform my master to come..."
