Xian Dynasty Era

Chapter 33
In the Ganlu Palace, following Chen Shao's departure, it fell into a strange silence.

Zong Bo Su Mao, Situ Meng Jichang, Sikong Fan Yanxu, the three of them were all pale, especially when they smelled the smell of burnt corpses in the air in the hall, they were even more trembling, and occasionally looked up at Su Zhao, who had a calm face, and a feeling of uneasiness rose in his heart. The fear of speaking.

Jing Hongdao looked at Yuan Bin's corpse, his old eyes narrowed slightly, thoughtful.

As an old minister serving three generations of monarchs, he naturally knew that there were immortals in the world, and, as far as he knew, there was an immortal sect behind the Su Yi family, but something happened to that immortal sect.

Seeing the surprised and uncertain expressions of the people present, Su Zhao frowned, knowing that most of the Su Guogong ministers in front of him seemed to be frightened by his cruel methods.

"Zhu Qing, after Yuan Ni's crimes were exposed, he became fierce and wanted to kill the king. Zhu Qing has just seen it. If it weren't for the help of a master who secretly helped Gu, Yuan Ni would have made things happen!"

Fan Yanxu bowed suddenly, and said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Ni used to monopolize power and bully the young master, but now he is burned to ashes, and he deserved it."

Su Mao on the side coughed and said in a loud voice: "Yuan Ni, when the first emperor was around, Yuan Ni planted a lot of cronies in the army, secretly amassing soldiers, and his intention of rebellion was obvious at that time, and it is even more so now. Intending to kill the king, the king will deal with it harshly, and everyone will be subdued."

"Come here, carry Yuan Ni's body down."

At this time, a group of armored soldiers came in and carried the scorched corpse out.

Jing Hongdao glanced at the ball of coke from the corner of his eye, smelled the faint smell in the air, frowned, and calmed down from the shock in his heart.

A few days ago, he had already seen that the situation in Su Guo's court was turbulent and unpredictable, and the changes would only happen sooner or later.

Without him, how can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch.

"Yuan Bin controls almost one-third of Su's military power, and his temperament is arrogant and domineering. How can such tigers and wolves be tolerated?" Jing Hongdao was thinking, his lips moved, and he cupped his hands suddenly. : "Your Majesty, since Yuan Bin has been put to death, and Yuntai Daying still has his cronies, please, Your Majesty, deal with it quickly with thunder."

Su Zhao nodded, and said: "Teacher, Guzheng has this intention, but the soldiers of the Yuntai camp are all Yuan Ni's cronies and party members, and I need to invite the teacher to go with Gu to identify and destroy the rebellious officials and thieves."

Before Jing Hongdao, whose complexion changed drastically, said, "Where is Qu Kai? Send a guard from the Imperial Guards to accompany the guards to the Yuntai camp!"

In order to prevent the soldiers from rebelling in the Yuntai camp, he and Jing Hongdao entered the Yuntai camp before the news spread, summoned the generals, and imprisoned them. He had a list provided by Chen Shao in his hand.

It's not that he never thought of sending Qu Kai there, but instead of letting his generation bewitch the army to mutiny, he might as well go with Jing Hongdao himself.

However, Si Kou Chen Shao took two generals Peng Yan, Cai Kuang, and more than a thousand forbidden troops out of the palace, and sent a part of the soldiers to go to the four gates of Wenyi City under martial law, prohibiting entry and exit, and one part went straight to Yuan's mansion.

At this moment, in Yuan Mansion, in the flower hall, the summer sun fell on the carpet, and the two were drinking tea facing each other a few tables away.

Yuan Ye was sitting on a pear-wood chair, drinking tea, looking up at the sky from time to time, and said, "It's almost time, why hasn't father come back? It shouldn't be like this..."

On the opposite side, Mr. Xu put down his teacup, frowned, and said: "Xu is the gentleman who agreed, and I don't know if he will stay with Yuan Gong for a while longer."

Yuan Ye suddenly felt restless, so he had to change the topic and said, "Mr. Xu, if that person refuses to allow, you will need to worry about tomorrow's matter."

Rebellion is not empty talk, it requires careful arrangements and contacts with cronies.

Mr. Xu nodded, and was about to speak, when he heard a burst of shouting and killing, he said, "My lord, did you hear something?"

Yuan Ye's complexion changed slightly, and he was about to get up.

Suddenly, the staggering figure of General Yuan Wei came running from the courtyard, with blood on his face and two arrows sticking out of his back, he said hoarsely: "My lord, the matter is urgent, the Imperial Army has surrounded the mansion, they have charged in It's..."

Yuan Ye's complexion turned pale immediately, and he said, "This..."

Suddenly thought of something, "Where is my father, where is my father?"

Yuan Wei, who is not an acquired martial artist, was about to speak, but at this moment, arrows rained down from the outside, and the dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, shooting them to the ground, stretching out his hand to say something, spitting blood from his mouth , After a while, it seems that he will die.

Mr. Xu on the side was also stunned.

Let the time go back a bit, after Chen Shao took Su Zhao's order, he sent someone to notify the officials of the Sikou Mansion to stabilize the security in Wenyi City, and at the same time asked Cai Kuang to lead the army to close the city gate.

Then, there was a scene outside the Yuan Mansion. Peng Yan, the commander of the imperial army, was sitting on the saddle, holding a long iron knife with a cold edge, looking at the family members of the Yuan family who were looking at each other not far away, and said loudly: " Yuan thief intends to rebel, and his crimes are obvious, and he is ordered by the emperor to arrest the Yuan family and send them to prison for crimes! Those who resist and disobey will be killed!"

The black-clothed armored soldiers of the forbidden army lined up all around, promised to spread out like a tide, and firmly surrounded Yuan's mansion to prevent them from getting away.

As for the vanguard of the imperial army, they even fought with more than a hundred soldiers raised by Yuan's family in the mansion.

"Fire arrows!"

A lieutenant of the Forbidden Army looked at Yuan's private soldiers who were resisting from the gate to the courtyard with a cold face.

Whizzing……

The sound of piercing through the air was heard endlessly, a round of strong crossbows and hard bows was shot, and screams kept coming and going. Five or six out of ten of Yuan's private soldiers were hit by arrows. Strong bow and hard crossbow suffered a big loss.

Peng Yan poured his true energy into the long knife in his palm, the knife breathed and breathed indefinitely, the edge of the knife glistened with cold light, he raised it forward, and said coldly: "Go in!"

As he spoke, he leaped over the horse, swung his sword with vertical and horizontal saber aura, and charged into the formation, invincible.

Geng Ji, the deputy commander at the side, made a loud promise, and also led the black armored soldiers of the Imperial Army to file in.

But in the flower hall, Mr. Xu heard the shouts of killing from outside, pulled up Yuan Ye who was losing his mind, and said anxiously: "Young master, the matter is urgent, please go quickly!"

Hearing this voice, Yuan Ye raised his head, Yin Zhi's face was full of despair, and said: "The four sides of Yuan's mansion are surrounded by the forbidden army, where can we escape?"

Mr. Xu said: "Yuntai Camp still has Mr. Yuan's subordinates, if we escape from the city, we still have a chance!"

Yuan Ye's eyes moved when he heard this, as if a glimmer of hope flashed across it.

At this moment, a black shadow turned out from the corridor, and a middle-aged man with a burly figure and a simple and honest face appeared, and said in a deep voice: "Young master, Lei Chun has received Yuan Gong's great kindness, and will escort you to escape from Wenyi City safely." .”

This person is exactly the man in black that Yuan Bin asked to monitor Li Hu's siblings earlier, and he has an innate realm.

At this moment, a group of people came out of the back house in a panic, but it was Mrs. Yuan and her party, leading a few maidservants, and said anxiously: "What's the matter, why are there shouts of killing outside? Ye'er, your father Woolen cloth?"

Yuan Ye glanced at his mother, his eyes were red, and said: "Father failed, and it was Su Zhao's son who killed him!"

When Mrs. Yuan heard this, her body softened immediately, she slumped on the ground, and murmured: "How could this be... how could this be..."

At this time, the shouts of killing from outside gradually approached, and accompanied by the crying of the female relatives, a group of armored soldiers had already rushed into the courtyard, shouting loudly: "Don't leave Yuan Ye!"

"My lord, don't delay any longer, please leave this place quickly!" Lei Chun's face became anxious, and at the same time as he spoke, he unsheathed his long knife at his waist, and turned around to kill the armored soldiers of the forbidden army.

Yuan Ye hesitated and said, "But my mother..."

Obviously, with his acquired ability, taking away one person is already the limit when surrounded by imperial guards.

Mr. Xu obviously knew the urgency of the situation, and said anxiously: "Young master, if you make a big deal, don't care about the small details. I will wait for the army to go outside, and there is still time to save my wife from the fire."
