"You know me?" Liu De looked at the messenger in front of him.

"General! I serve in the imperial army, how could I not know the general? I didn't expect the general to be in Chenliu!" the envoy said.

"When did Your Majesty die?" Liu De asked. After all, Ji Yuanwu's death had a great impact on him, and even had a huge impact on the entire Great Zhou. Liu De had to treat it with caution.

"General, Your Majesty died on April [-]th in Yanwu!"

"Today is April 22, eleven days have passed! I didn't expect such a huge thing to happen just over a month after I left the capital!" Liu De sighed.Before he set off, the emperor reverted to his old ways and played songs every night. I am afraid that this is the reason why the emperor, who could have persisted for a few more months, suddenly collapsed.

Liu De had already guessed part of it, but he didn't expect that another reason was that the Bodhisattva followers attacked the palace, the emperor was frightened, and under the double blow, Ji Yuanwu's body could not survive.

However, in order to protect the dignity of the emperor, the matter of being scared and fainted must not be spread outside the public, even the messenger did not know, so it is even more impossible for Liu De to know.

"General, on the way I came here, some people said that there was a large army besieging Chen Liucheng. I don't know what's going on. Just in case, I deliberately went around Chen Liucheng, but I didn't see any trace of the enemy?" the envoy asked.

"Can you see the head hanging on the east gate?"

"Could it be that the head is the enemy who attacked Chen Liucheng?"

Chapter 226 Return

"I didn't expect Chen Liucheng to be attacked by the Bodhisattva Sect!" the messenger said in shock.

"All?" Xiang Rui had some doubts on the side.

"Don't dare to lie to the two adults. The capital was also attacked by more than a thousand cultists before this, but it was quickly wiped out by the army led by the general!"

The second prince succeeded to the throne, honoring Empress He as Empress Dowager, Chen He as Prime Minister of the Left, Li Zhen as Prime Minister of the Right, and King Luan Ji Changyou as General. Liu De and others have already heard the news from the envoy, so I will not describe it in detail. .

The messenger continued: "The general learned from the captives that the Bodhisattva Sect is powerful, so he sent Qingqi to Dongzhou to check. Unexpectedly, there was already a trace of the Bodhisattva Sect in Chenliu, and there was an army of 30. It's too scary!"

Liu De and Xiang Rui looked at each other, and they both noticed the surprise in each other's eyes. They didn't expect that there would be rioters even in the capital, so the other states...

Xiang Ruidao: "Dare to ask what instructions the court has!"

"Every place prepares its own troops!"

"Can't the imperial court dispatch troops?"

"Cao Zhuo in Xizhou rebelled, and the capital has no soldiers to mobilize!" The envoy shook his head, "Why didn't the prefect pass the news to the capital quickly?"

"The battle report has been sent to the capital, but Kuai Ma has asked for help from the state government before that, but there has been no news. I don't know what happened."

Liu De said to Xiang Rui: "Prefect Xiang, now that His Majesty has passed away and a new emperor has just been established, I fear that the Hu people in northern Xinjiang will take this opportunity to invade our territory. I will return to Dongyu today and bid farewell!"

"General Anbei, we will leave today. I don't know when we will see each other again! But if Xiang can help, the general can write to me. Xiang is obliged!" Xiang Rui bowed.

"Goodbye!"

Liu Dexiao left the government office gracefully.

However, Xiang Rui felt a sense of loss. He had a feeling that after parting from now on, when they meet again, it might be a different situation.

"Master Niu!"

Xiang Rui ordered: "Send a fast horse to the state capital to see what happened to the state capital. According to my understanding of Cui Zhoumu, it is impossible for him not to send troops to rescue. Something must have happened!"

"As ordered!"

Master Niu nodded and replied, watching Liu De's leaving back, it was also a bit complicated, maybe what Liu De said was still lingering in his mind!

......

Five days later, Liu De and his group arrived outside Bohai City.

"My lord, are you going to the city?"

Xu Hu asked Liu De.

Liu De shook his head: "No more, everyone, hurry up and try to return to Dongyu as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

If Yang Zichuan gets the news of the emperor's death, I am afraid that the turmoil in Yanzhou will really begin!

When the news of Cao Zhuo's rebellion spreads all over the world, those ambitious people may not be willing to lag behind. What's even more frightening is that once the capital is captured by Cao Zhuo, the dignity of the court will be completely lost, and the world will enter a period of turmoil.

I only hope that the left prime minister Chen He, the right prime minister Li Zhen, the general Ji Changyou, and the chariot general Huangfuyi will give some strength. They must hold on for a while. Neither I nor Dongyu are ready now!

......

ten days later.

"What did you say!?"

Li Zhen jumped up from his seat, the corners of his eyes almost cracked, and he was almost stunned by the news he just learned!

Li Zhen touched his dizzy head and asked, "Do Chen Xiangguo and the general know about this news!"

"Report to the prime minister, someone has already been sent there!"

"Come on!" Li Zhen shouted.

"Master, you order!" A young servant ran in.

"Quick, prepare the car, the old man is going to the palace!"

"Yes!" It could be seen that Li Zhen was very anxious and didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly responded.

Half an hour later, Li Zhen's carriage drove into the palace.

"Master Chen, have you heard the news about Danzhou Mansion?"

In a side hall, Li Zhen saw Chen He and hurriedly worshiped him.

"Lord Li, this old man has just heard the news. The thieves are so rampant! They don't pay attention to the court's law at all. If things go on like this, the country will be ruined!"

"Chen Xiangguo, Li Xiangguo!" At this time Luan Wang Ji Changyou also walked into the side hall, and bowed to Chen and Li.

"His Royal Highness King Luan!" Chen and Li also returned the gift.

"We'll go see Your Majesty right now!" Ji Changyou suggested.

"It should be so!" Chen and Li replied.

When the three of them entered the Changle Hall, the Empress Dowager He and the little emperor had been waiting for a long time. Seeing the three of them entering the hall, the Empress Dowager He said to Zhang Zhong beside her, "Give the three Qing family seats!"

"Thank you Your Majesty, thank you Queen Mother!" The three bowed.
