"General Li, something is wrong."

"What the hell, what could happen?" Li Yichong was eating his lunch, chewing pickles in his mouth.

"News came from Linggu Pass that General Yufeng was stabbed in the heart by a sword from the leader of the uprising.

Li Yichong was so scared that the pickles dropped when he heard the news, "Is this news true?!"

"I heard that before the rebels launched the attack, the general was poisoned and didn't realize it. After the battle, he lost all his internal energy, so he knew it." The person who reported the news had red eyes, "The main general was injured. After a big defeat, the rebels went to Beijing to attack."

Li Yichong couldn't believe it, the boss who has always been invincible would lose? !

Is that person the boss or Jiang Xingtian...

Just hope Kyori's defense doesn't fail.

Tan Haozhi's pupils shrank when he heard the news from Li Yichong. This person didn't look like he was hiding something, so Zhao Heng was really killed?

He always thought that Zhao Heng's disappearance a few days ago was for the convenience of commanding the army, but now there is bad news from the army, not only that, the rebel army has already attacked the capital.

It's only been a month since he left Beijing, so many things have happened, and God doesn't seem to want him to stop for a moment. He just found out about Guihe Village the day before yesterday, and he was in a mess, as if he just filled a hole and broke another. The hole, he felt like he couldn't hold it anymore...

Tan Haozhi took a deep breath, feeling that what he was sucking in was cold wind, but it couldn't cool his heart that was scalded to the point of desperation. Li Yichong gritted his teeth anxiously and couldn't stop walking.

"Go back to Beijing."

The clear and cold voice is so firm.

Li Yichong raised his head strangely, and saw Tan Haozhi looking into his eyes, those clear eyes contained indescribable emotions.

"If you go back to Beijing, you will be resisting the decree." Li Yichong reminded.

Tan Hao was stunned, and suddenly smiled wryly. Whenever his mind was confused, he would ignore it on the spur of the moment. He lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "It's my fault."

How can you get others to resist because of your own selfish harm.

He thought about the four words that person dropped into his ear that day, recited them over and over again, picked up a pen and wrote them on the paper over and over again, and when he came to his senses, the black and white paper was all Zhao Heng.

After the rebel army won a great victory at Linggu Pass, news of the fall of the prefectures and counties came one after another, and they attacked the capital like a broken bamboo.

The house leak coincided with the continuous night rain, and the people's uprising began to spread in Qinghai County, and the nearby gates had been captured unknowingly, and there was no extra troops in Beijing to suppress it.

The Spring Festival is here, but this year is full of panic and chaos. The people have no intention of posting Spring Festival couplets and setting off fireworks. The streets are full of patrolling officers and soldiers. I didn't expect that General Yufeng would be defeated, that is their God of War. Some people said that Zhao's vitality was exhausted, and the sky was about to change, but he said he was going to flee. Where did he go?It is not safe to escape anywhere in this chaotic world, the gates of the city have already been sealed off, and preparations have been made for battle.

The entire capital fell into great depression, crying could be heard every now and then, some people shouted that they didn't want to die, some people angrily scolded the soldiers for why food was so useless, and some people even clamored for the emperor to abdicate to quell public anger.

The court hall was also lifeless, and the civil servants who shouted loudly on weekdays were like eggplants beaten by frost, for fear of being the top bird.

Those who knew it well secretly rejoiced, waiting for the day when the sky would change.

When the rebel army approached the city, it was dark, and the night could not cover up the ground shaking. Arrows flew all over the sky, carrying sparks, and the fire was lit instantly, and the weapons clashed and shouts sounded.

It's like a boulder is thrown into a quiet lake, causing huge waves to blow up. The fish are scrambling to escape, the city is in chaos, and the people are scrambling to escape from their homes. , Sorrow filled everyone's heart, suddenly there were all kinds of voices, and the patrolling soldiers were unable to suppress the rioting people.

They said they were going to flee, where did they go?Why isn't the city gate open, are we going to die here?

The emperor stood in neat clothes on the imperial city, looking at the flames in Beijing, and the large blocks of burning houses, his face was cold.

After a while, the queen mother also came, but she couldn't see any pride on her face. Her Xie family army was leaderless at the moment, and the main generals were all in trouble. They couldn't afford to be appointed for a while. She vaguely guessed what would greet her next...

The emperor glanced at her and said nothing, he didn't even bother to be polite.

She gritted her teeth and sneered, "Do you think they will break into the city tonight?"

The emperor actually laughed when he heard the words, and looked very strangely against the firelight, "Yes."

As if answering the emperor's words, someone rushed over amidst the shouts, "Your Majesty, the east gate has been breached!"

"Your Majesty, the west city gate has been breached!"

The young emperor looked extremely calm, he waved his hand, and looked not far away, until a group of people and horses broke through the flames, and the black armor reflected the cold light, and the regent stood in front of him, slowly stopping under the imperial city.

The emperor raised his lips slightly and smiled.

It didn't take half an hour for the rebels to attack the city. Don't even think about it, they were all cooperating with each other. They came in like a broken bamboo, without any obstacles, and quickly occupied a favorable situation.

It is so easy for the regent to rebel. After all, there are many of his troops in Beijing. He is also tired of going around in circles with the emperor, just delaying the time to polish off the edges and corners of the Xie family. He looked up at the young emperor and smiled coldly. up.

With an order, the black army attacked the imperial city.

The emperor was waiting for this moment. He glanced at them with a smile, then turned and left.

It didn't take long for the imperial city to be captured. The regent led the 'rebel' army to attack, and arrived in front of the emperor without much effort. The queen mother trembling with anger said, "Zhangqiu Xian, what are you going to do? Self-proclaimed king?!"

This is different from what they said. It should be that the rebels killed the emperor, and they came to rescue him belatedly and established a new emperor.

"The emperor is incompetent and appoints treacherous ministers. It's time for a change in the world." The regent smiled, "This is what the people want."

"Presumptuous." Empress Dowager Xie jumped up, unable to sit still any longer.

The regent didn't even look at her, he just stared at the emperor and said calmly, "If you obediently abdicate to me, I will spare your life."

"How do you know that you are sure to win?" The emperor also smiled. He glanced at the people under the steps and saw a familiar figure, and his heart skipped a beat, a little bit bitter and sad.

The regent's eyes were sharp. If he hadn't agreed to the fool around him, he wouldn't bother talking nonsense, "Forget it, you wouldn't agree if you thought about it."

As soon as the regent waved his hand, he sent someone to arrest the emperor.

There was a flash of swords and swords in the hall, and someone hurried in and said something to Zhang Jing, the prefect of Qinghai County. From Anshan."

South Anshan?He remembered that it was the fiefdom of Princess Lingyang, what role could a woman play, the regent smiled disdainfully, "You deal with it."

Zhang actually nodded and retreated.

"Empress Dowager, let's take refuge quickly." The delicate lights in the hall reflected the Empress Dowager's pale face, she shook her head unwillingly, she didn't believe that her Xie family was defeated like this, by a shameless person.

Soon the ground was filled with several corpses, and a steady stream of people kept coming forward.

"Emperor, you are a smart man, don't make unnecessary sacrifices." The regent raised his voice.

The emperor looked at them indifferently, but his fingertips trembled slightly.

Finally, the sound of fighting came from outside the hall again. Someone broke through the formation with the momentum of the wind and cloud, and quickly rushed forward, like a sharp knife, splitting the predicament in two.

The regent turned his head in surprise. Amidst the roar, a man wearing a bronze mask walked over.

The flames reflected his weird mask, which made people feel cold. A round object drew an arc in the sky and threw it in front of the regent. It was Zhang Jing's head.

As if all movements were slowed down, the Prince Regent's face changed drastically when he saw the person coming, "Zhao Heng?!"

Zhao Heng pursed his lips and laughed, "Is the regent wondering why I am here? It should be a serious injury and a coma, and one foot has stepped into the gate of hell."

"Are you plotting against me?"

"No, I just didn't expect that there is not even the most basic trust between us."

The arrival of Zhao Heng reversed the situation. The elite soldiers he brought easily subdued the rebels on the field.

The regent gritted his teeth angrily, glared at the emperor, raised his sword and charged at the emperor. He still had a turning point. It was impossible for Zhao Heng to bring back so many people. When his soldiers from Liaoning County came to the city to rescue him, he didn't believe he couldn't kill Zhao Heng. Heng, it's time to get rid of that trouble now and keep it in the way!

The flashing knife was resisted by someone, sparks popped out after the collision, and cracks appeared on the sharp knife surface, the regent trembled with anger, "You bastard, you are still protecting him even now! Do you want to die? ?!"

"Father said he wouldn't kill him."

"Hmph, so you came here today to prevent me from killing him?"

Zhang Changxi looked at the regent guiltily, the corners of his mouth moved but he didn't say anything. The father and son finally faced each other with swords and swords. They fought for several rounds until the situation was controlled by Zhao Heng. He saw the leader of the "Uprising" army in Liaoning County Standing firmly beside Zhao Heng.

The regent's face was slumped, and he withdrew his sword, as if he was under public criticism, "Meng Feizi, how dare you betray me?"

The leader of the "Rebel Army" looked at him blankly, laughed, and stretched out his hand to take off his mask. It was Zhou Yide.

The regent suddenly burst out laughing, Zhou Yide was recommended to him by Zhang Changxi, he took advantage of it halfway, and thought it would be better to get rid of him if he was not one of his own, now looking at the situation, the result is self-evident.

"The reinforcements you're waiting for won't show up, but what I'm waiting for is your men and horses attacking the city and catching a turtle in a urn, and it's over." Zhao Heng also smiled gloatingly, "By the way, my Yufeng The army has already eaten your reinforcements to death on the way."

The regent was so angry that he picked up his sword and pointed at Zhang Changxi, "You are my son!"

Zhang Changxi looked at the sword pointing at him, but couldn't say anything.

The regent's eyes are scarlet. This battle for power is like a farce. He has tried his best to remove all obstacles, but he is making wedding dresses for others.

On the sixth day of the first month of the fourth year of Qing'an, the regent was imprisoned for treason.
