How could Shisun Duan not know this truth? But now that the matter has been exposed, where can he escape? If he cannot escape thirty miles, he will be overtaken by the cavalry. Instead of escaping and being chased, it is better to fight vigorously
I'd rather die!
His desperate fight had an unexpected effect. Most of the imperial troops who came to arrest were local soldiers and horses, and their training and equipment were inferior. They were scattered when his dead soldiers charged.
After that, Shi Sunduan raised his arms and shouted, and hundreds more people joined in.
At this time, Shi Sunduan looked at the hundreds of soldiers and horses behind him, and couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope. If Chen Zei was not prepared, maybe he could really succeed? The dead soldiers and the tribes of each family moved forward in a noisy manner, and after a while
We arrived at the square in front of Weiyang Palace.
In the main hall, Meng Tuo was kneeling on the ground and said dejectedly: "The soldiers who went to capture Shisun Duan were scattered. The rebels have kidnapped hundreds of people and are heading here to kill them!"
Chen Cheng sat on the chair, glanced at Meng Tuo coldly, and said: "I told you that Shi Sun Duan and others were plotting to kill soldiers, but you are still so careless? You can't do such a small thing well...
....snort..........."
Meng Tuo was speechless and could only prostrate himself on the ground, motionless.
Chen Cheng turned to look at Wang Yue, who was silent beside him, and frowned: "Meng Tuo has never fought and is not good at martial arts. I don't know why he is excusable. Why didn't you remind him?"
Wang Yue bent down and cupped his hands, and said: "The Chang'an Forbidden Army is not large in number. They have to block the city gates and send troops to capture the rebels. The number is not enough. If I am guilty, I should contact the Ministry of War in advance, so that more troops and horses can be mobilized. In addition,
, there are more traitors on the other side of Beique than expected. After Na Shisun Duan led his men to fight out, he just shouted, and there were hundreds of followers!"
Chen Cheng snorted and said, "I originally wanted to kill a few fewer people, but so many people couldn't help but jump out!"
"Kill Thief Chen!"
"Defend the Emperor!"
The shouts of hundreds of people were so loud that they came in from afar. Heavy footsteps sounded in the hall, and the eight-foot-tall Pang De walked in and loudly announced: "General, the traitors have already arrived.
In front of Weiyang Palace!"
After Guanzhong was pacified, Chen Cheng transferred Pang De and Ma Chao to his bodyguards.
Pang De was wearing heavy steel armor, and with every step he took, the floor made a "crack, click, click" sound. His martial arts and loyalty were impeccable, and even ordinary Xiliang dragonriders were no match for him. Chen Cheng thought that
, in Chang'an City now, apart from himself, Lu Bu is probably the only one who can stabilize him.
Chen Cheng stood up from his chair and said, "Since the enemies are here, let's go out and meet them."
After Chen Cheng walked out with the guards in the hall, Meng Da stepped forward and helped his father Meng Tuo up. He complained: "Why did father do this? What did the lord say, we just obey the order."
"
Meng Tuo said in shock: "What are you talking about?"
Meng Dachao looked around, and when he saw that there was no one else around, he whispered: "Shisun Duan was able to kill Weiyang Palace. Wasn't it his father's intention?"
The shock on Meng Tuo's face disappeared. He looked at his son and laughed, "There are some things that are difficult for the lord to do. Then we, as ministers, must take the initiative to do things well. Not only must we do it well, but we must also do it well."
I must help my lord bear the infamy!"
Outside the main hall, Chen Cheng looked out from the high steps and saw that Shi Sunduan had led his men to the bottom of the steps and was leading his rebel army to climb up. Chen Cheng looked at the enemy,
After sneering a few times and waving their hands, the soldiers from the infantry battalion rushed to the edge of the high platform from the Weiyang Palace with crossbows and spears in hand.
Shi Sunduan was climbing up with a sword in his hand. When he saw so many soldiers rushing out, he was stunned. Although the sword was sharp, it was only suitable for fighting alone and small-scale battles.
An army equipped with strong bows, crossbows and spears to contend with.
"Chen Thief!"
Scholar Sun Duan was so angry that he was thrown into the abyss of despair at the last moment of success, which caused his emotions to fluctuate violently. Even though he had a strong personality, he couldn't help but lose his composure at this time, and he shouted again
, "Chen Thief!"
Chen Cheng looked at Shi Sunduan's somewhat distorted face, shook his head, and said, "If it weren't for me, the grass on your graves would be ten feet high."
"Chen Thief, you have no regard for the emperor, you are confusing the court, and you are promiscuous/promiscuous in the harem..."
Shisun Duan kept cursing, and Chen Cheng had expected this, but what the hell is "promiscuous harem"? You said that I have no ambitions for the emperor, and that's fine, but we have never spent the night in the palace.
.......Well, Weiyang Palace can also be regarded as a royal palace, and it's not like I haven't done anything in Weiyang Palace...
This...tsk tsk, forget it, let the old man say whatever he likes.
Chen Cheng wanted to understand. "The person who caused the culprit will die" is an unwritten rule of the Han family. No matter who is the person who launches the rebellion, no matter what the purpose is, he will die. Scholar Sun Duan is already dead. For a dying person,
It's okay for people to be more tolerant. But just because he can think openly, it doesn't mean that others can think openly.
When Wang Yue heard Shi Sun Duan's nonsense, he was furious and was about to step forward to kill him. Someone next to him shouted out, "You traitor, what are you talking about?"
Princess Wannian, who had rushed over at some time, had a cold look on her pretty face. She pressed the horizontal knife on her waist and angrily shouted: "Who gave you the courage to talk nonsense like this?"
Shi Sunduan shouted: "Chen Cheng is the traitor! He has raped the queen mother, raped the princess, killed loyal people, and amassed the world's wealth for his own enjoyment! Chen Cheng, the people in the world who want to kill you don't know
How many! Chen thief, Chen thief, I wish I could eat your flesh and sleep on your skin!"
He said loudly: "I have received a secret edict from the Emperor to kill the traitor Chen Cheng! Anyone on the left or right who takes Chen Cheng's head will be made a marquis by splitting the soil!"
"You bastard, you're shameless!" Liu Qian's face turned red with anger and she said angrily, "I'll kill you!"
She pulled out the horizontal knife from her waist and was about to step forward, but Chen Cheng stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Master, let me kill him!"
Chen Cheng shook his head and said: "He is the Tutor after all, we can't just kill him. Capture him first, and then give him the trial he deserves."
"Hmph!" Shi Sunduan pointed his sword at Chen Cheng who was standing on the high platform, and angrily shouted: "Chen Thief, you are the one who should be judged!"
Chen Cheng didn't want to say anything more to him, so he ordered: "Kill everyone except Shi Sun Duan!"
"collapse!"
The bow strings vibrated together, as if there were a thousand or ten thousand bees flapping their wings at the same time. Dense arrows and crossbow bolts poured down from the high platform, killing the dead soldiers behind Sun Duan. He furiously
He shouted and charged towards the high platform, but Wang Yue, who rushed down, knocked the sword out of his hand.
Shisun Duan's head was hit hard by the hilt of the sword, and he fell into a coma immediately. All the people he brought were killed on the spot. There were many troops stationed around Weiyang Palace. When Shisun Duan and his men rushed over,
, the escape route was quickly cut off, so no one escaped.
Wang Yue dragged Sun Duan, a soldier with blood flowing from his forehead, in front of Chen Cheng and said, "My lord, the traitor has been captured!"
Chen Cheng squatted down and stretched out his hand to wipe off the blood on Sun Duan's face. Looking at the other party's old face, he felt no resentment in his heart. Judging from the information Wang Yue collected, this old man could not be regarded as a bad person, but
It's just that he is finally pursuing his own ideals and order.
"Take him to Changle Palace with the other rebels!"
Chen Cheng turned around and said to the aggrieved Princess Wannian: "Don't be angry, let's go meet the emperor. No matter what, we still have to tell the emperor after killing so many ministers."
Liu Qian said bitterly: "Master is a god in this world, even if he really does something to the Queen Mother, then..."
"Nonsense!" Chen Cheng said angrily: "What are you thinking in your head?"
"I'm just telling the truth!"
"I think you know too much!" Chen Cheng said, "Come with me to Changle Palace now and stop talking nonsense!"
Ever since Wang Yun and Shi Sun Duan told the emperor privately about their plan to kill Chen Cheng, Emperor Liu Bian was excited and frightened every day, and the time he spent on Empress Fu became longer every day. In this state, originally
Liu Bian, who didn't really love learning, was even less interested in learning the knowledge that Chen Cheng had invented.
That day, he was playing in Changle Palace. Suddenly, a eunuch ran in in panic and shouted: "Your Majesty, this is bad!"
Liu Bian was startled, stood up suddenly, and asked: "What's wrong?"
"General..."
Liu Bian exclaimed in surprise: "The general is dead?"
The eunuch said with a crying face: "The general has led his troops into the palace!"
Footsteps rumbled in the outer passage, and Liu Qian, who was the first to appear, had unconcealed anger on her face, "Brother, was it you who gave the order?"
Liu Bian looked at the tooth soldiers pouring in with fear, and hesitantly said: "My dear sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
"Hmph, weren't you expecting the general to die just now?"
Liu Qian had a majestic look on her face. She had just killed several enemies in front of Weiyang Palace. At this time, her body was covered with blood and she looked murderous. Her horizontal sword was inserted back into the scabbard, but her murderous intent remained unabated.
Zeng. Liu Qian shouted: "If it weren't for the general, you would have died long ago!"
Liu Bian's face turned red and white, white and red again. Under the violent shock of his emotions, he couldn't help shouting, "I am the emperor! I am a descendant of Emperor Gao! Chen Cheng is just a general! Why should he
Do you think I'm a puppet?"
"Huh, brother, you don't know anything!"
Liu Qian held back what she was about to say. She had promised Chen Cheng that she would not reveal that information to anyone.
The heavy footsteps outside became louder. Unknown how many soldiers came over and surrounded the Changle Palace where the emperor lived. Yang Qiu, Minister of the Ministry of War, broke in with his soldiers and horses, his face filled with murderous intent. He originally wanted to
He shouted loudly after coming in, but when he saw Liu Qian, he couldn't help being stunned, and then saluted: "See you, princess!"
Then, he turned to Emperor Liu Bian and said: "Your Majesty, the general invites you to go out to meet with the courtiers. There is something important to announce!"
