As soon as He Jin entered the house, he was summoned by the Empress Dowager, so he had to leave the house again without taking a sip of food or a glass of water.
Almost at the same time, Lin Feng, who was munching happily on a roast leg of lamb, was interrupted by Xi Zhicai who came in a hurry.
"My lord, the news just came back that General He was called into the palace by someone from the palace."
Lin Feng casually put the roasted leg of lamb aside and asked while picking his teeth: "Can you confirm which party invited General He to the palace?"
"The person who made the call is the young eunuch who has been serving the Empress Dowager, but it is not known whether he is secretly the spy of Lord Jian."
"The Empress Dowager's people? What can she do with General He at this time?"
"Wen Ruo judged that it was Duke Jian who started the action."
Lin Feng suddenly became excited: "Have our people been sent out?"
Xi Zhicai smiled strangely.
"Lord, all the manpower Wen Ruo and I can mobilize have entered a state of assembly. But Wen Ruo asked me to tell my lord that there seems to be another force acting secretly with an unknown purpose, but it does not seem to be hostile to us.
"
Lin Feng was stunned, Xun Yu could do it, he actually noticed Zhao Yun and the others' secret actions with the limited power in his hands.
"No need to pay attention, just do your thing."
Xi Zhicai secretly sighed, there was indeed a force hidden in Yu Se's hands, but this power was really terrifying. He and Xun Yu tried their best during this period, but could not detect any clues, and finally relied on deception.
This little bit of evidence was extracted from Lin Feng's mouth.
It is a pity that Lin Feng and Xi Zhicai did not continue to communicate in depth, otherwise both parties would soon find out that they had different opinions.
Not to mention that the assistant commander Zuo Xiaowei's residence was entering a wartime state in a tense and orderly manner. The cavalry general He Miao in the general's residence had just received a letter with no beginning or end.
The letter was sent by a libertine who can be seen everywhere on the streets of Luoyang. This kind of libertine who has nothing to do all day long and causes trouble is the kind of person like Niu Er who was chopped to death by Yang Zhi in the Water Margin.
It has been impossible to find out all the information in the past, and it will sell your life for two hanging threads. There will definitely be no useful information from the messenger.
But the content of the letter shocked He Miao into a cold sweat.
The letter is not long, only a few dozen words, but the content is very scary.
"The Cavalry General's Clear Guide: Jian Shuo of Xiaohuangmen wanted to protect the emperor's son Xie's succession. The fake empress dowager announced that the general would enter the palace, but she actually laid an ambush in the palace with troops and horses in order to kill the general. At this time, the general was in danger.
Quick help."
He Miao's head was about to explode. His ability was not outstanding. If He hadn't been fighting in the officialdom for more than ten years, it would have been impossible for He to become a powerful person.
If He Jin is really in danger, the entire He family will inevitably collapse in an instant and cease to exist, even if the Empress Dowager is still alive.
It can be said that He Miao's future prosperity and wealth are all tied to his brother He Jin.
Regardless of whether the content of this letter was true or false, He Miao still summoned all He Jin's confidants as quickly as possible.
There was a commotion in the meeting hall, and He Jin was not able to stand up. None of these arrogant warriors were convinced by anyone. He Hun and Mrs. Zhang even had a quarrel on the spot. Sister Meixiang who admired Juxianglou and Nanjin who admired Cuiyuntang.
Sister, the noise was so loud that the sky was filled with foam at the mouth, and there was a circle of people making noises and arguing around.
He Miao rubbed her temples vigorously: "Don't be so noisy, listen to me."
The hall became quiet for a while, but He Hun and Mrs. Zhang were still bickering in a low voice. They wanted to make an appointment to try it out for themselves later, whether Sister Meixiang is as soft as water or Miss Nanjin as fierce as fire.
He Miao threw down the letter paper in his hand: "You all have a look at it. Is what is said in this letter trustworthy?"
After reading them one by one, the assembly hall exploded.
"Mother Rite, Jian Shuo, this old dog, gather the troops and horses to fuck him!"
"I'm just saying, the general is too kind-hearted, don't say anything, just draw the knife!"
"Stab him, stab him, stab him, keep stabbing him." This person was probably drunk.
He Miao shook his head: "Everyone, I can't make up my mind, but I would rather believe it or not. Let's go back and gather our troops! Let's go to the palace gate first and look for the wind. If what is said in the letter is not true,
I just took the opportunity to kill Jian Shuo, the old dog, and just support the prince on the throne."
"good!"
"It should have been done long ago."
"My broadsword has long been thirsty." This is the same drunk man.
The generals ran out of the house in confusion. He Miao also stood up and ordered his men to raise their guns and prepare their horses, preparing to fight.
But it was said that He Jin followed the young eunuch leisurely to the gate of the palace, looked around, and felt something strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
When he jumped off the horse and strode into the palace gate, he realized that the usually chaotic group of jackdaws here seemed to be missing.
So He Jin hesitated a little, stood in the palace doorway, and stopped moving forward.
The little eunuch who led him took two steps, then turned around after noticing something unusual.
"General, why are you standing still? The Queen Mother is still waiting."
He Jin pondered for a moment, raised his head and said with a smile: "I just remembered that I had a piece of jade pendant that I wanted to give to the empress but I didn't bring it with me. Let me go back to my house to get it."
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter in the palace: "He Jin, ordinary man, since you have joined our family, do you still want to escape today?"
He Jin's face changed greatly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Old Jian Shuo, it is indeed you who visited a certain house to enter the palace. Today you are pretending to preach and preach in vain. Tomorrow I will definitely read your book again and again."
Jian Shuo's slender figure appeared from the palace corridor.
"He Jin, do you still think you can see the sun tomorrow?"
When He Jin heard this, he turned around and wanted to run out of the palace gate.
It's a pity that he has a big belly
, it’s okay to get on the treadmill, but when it comes to running, I can’t even catch a duck.
Before he had even taken a few steps, the huge palace door creaked several times and closed with a clang.
He Jin was immediately swallowed up by the shadow in the doorway.
Jian Shuo gave an order, and countless lamps and torches lit up all around, making the inside of the doorway as bright as day.
He Jin pretended to be calm and managed a smile.
"Why did Mr. Jian do this? If I have offended you in ordinary times, please forgive me for the sake of the Empress Dowager."
Jian Shuo laughed loudly.
"He Jin, the late emperor did not think that you were vulgar and simply living in the market. You did not want to repay the kindness of the country, but you did it for your own selfish purposes. You did not respect the last wishes of the late emperor, regarded the prince as nothing, and forced you to deduce the prince's enthronement. Now
Our family will pull out this cancer for the late Emperor."
When was he so frightened that he took a step back and leaned his back against the cold palace door.
"Come here, chop off the head of He Jin, the rebellious minister and traitor, and hang it outside the palace gate."
There was a burst of responses from all around, and countless sergeants with swords and knives were rushing toward the door.
He Jin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Old dog, do you think that I have nothing to do in the palace?"
"Where are the palace guards? Come and rescue me quickly."
Jian Shuo, who thought He Jin was bluffing, was full of ridicule before he could say it, but his face turned into astonishment.
To his surprise, some of the sergeants who originally rushed to the gate passage suddenly slashed at their colleagues with knives. There was a bloody storm. In the end, there were about a hundred sergeants guarding He Jin. .
Jian Shuo clenched his teeth, and burst out a sentence from between his teeth: "Idiot, you actually placed a trusted aide in the palace guard?"
There are many forces in Luoyang City, and they are generally divided into three parts. The forbidden army in the palace is under the command of Jian Shuo, the forbidden army in the city is under the command of He Jin, and the field armies outside the city are controlled by Zhu Jun and Huang Fusong's Zhonglang General's Mansion.
I don't know why He Jin placed so many dead soldiers among the palace guards.
Although he was protected by dead soldiers, He Jin was still sweating profusely. After all, compared with Jian Shuo, he had too little.
"Mr. Jian, there is actually a misunderstanding between you and me. Otherwise, you can let me go back to my hometown, and if nothing happens tonight, I will never let anyone know about it."
Brother, you win, let me live, I will never call the police... No, I will definitely not bring anyone back to seek revenge after I go back.
How could Jian Shuo let He Jin go, who was on the verge of despair? He waved the long knife in his hand viciously and issued an attack order.
Suddenly, the sound of killing at the palace gate shook the sky, blood flew out, and it turned into a killing field for Shura.
With little effort, most of the dead soldiers in front of He Jin lay down. Although the space in the palace gate passage was limited and Jian Shuo could not launch a large-scale attack, He Jin's manpower was still too small, and he would not be able to last long even if he exchanged his life for his life. .
Just when Jian Shuo had seen the dawn of victory, gunfire suddenly broke out outside the palace gate, and He Miao and others led their troops to kill him.
