Liu Mingzhi watched Cheng Kai and his group of more than 30 guards leave. The battalion general left his tent, looked down at the unsigned letter in his hand and walked towards the handsome chair.
Putting the letter on the desk and thinking about which important person Li Ye invited to persuade him, Liu Mingzhi chuckled and turned to look behind the huge map.
"Jiang He, brothers and sisters, little girl Dai'er, please come out."
"Brother!"
"uncle!"
Young Master Liu poured two cups of tea and handed them to An Gouer and his wife. He bent down and picked up the little lolita Andel. Looking at Andel who was looking at him nervously, Liu Mingzhi showed a gentle smile. .
"Diel, is uncle so scary?"
Andele shook her head and nodded, not knowing how to answer.
Liu Mingzhi squeezed An Dai'er's pink hands and looked at An Gou'er.
"Jiang He, you heard what eldest brother just said to General Cheng and the others, right? Do you understand what to do?"
An Gouer nodded without hesitation: "Jiang He understands. I will immediately go to Tonggu County to mobilize troops to the capital."
"You must think clearly, this is rebellion and a road of no return!"
An Gou'er grinned: "Brother, I'll take care of Luya and Dai'er first, and I'll set off soon."
"Daddy!"
When Andier heard that An Gou'er was about to leave, she immediately struggled and stared at An Gou'er motionless.
"Daer, be obedient. My uncle will take good care of you and your mother. Dad will be back in no more than three days.
You must be obedient to your uncle, and you are not allowed to run around and cause trouble to your uncle, you know? "
Andel nodded hesitantly, her pink hands tightly intertwined.
"Diel knows, daddy, you must come back soon!"
"Daddy knows, Dai'er must also be obedient!"
After An Gouer finished speaking, he gave Luya a reassuring look, turned around and walked towards the outside of the tent.
After An Gou'er left, Liu Mingzhi lowered his head and glanced at An Dai'er, who was clutching his sleeves and looking nervous, and looked toward the tent door with a gentle smile.
"Somebody come!"
"The humble position is here!"
Liu Mingzhi put Andel down and looked at Luya and the guards: "Make a tent available for my brothers, sisters and niece to rest, and all living expenses will be the same as mine!"
"Got the order!"
"Madam, little lady, please come with me."
Luya nodded to the soldiers and saluted Liu Dashaofu.
"Brother, little sister and Dai'er will leave first."
"Okay, go to bed early."
Luya and her daughter followed the soldiers and left the tent. Liu Mingzhi chuckled, shook his head, and walked towards the handsome chair.
"The training is really good. If you didn't look at her appearance, I would have thought she was from a noble family!"
After muttering to himself, Liu Mingzhi sat on the handsome chair, picked up the unsigned letter, took out the letter paper and looked at the candlelight to read it.
While drinking tea, the rice paper in Liu Mingzhi's hand filled with Juanxiu's handwriting slipped silently onto the table, and Liu Mingzhi's expression became gloomy and uncertain.
After being stunned for a while, Liu Mingzhi picked up the letter and looked at the candlelight again for a while. After confirming that he had read it correctly and that the content was still the same, Liu Mingzhi breathed a heavy sigh and held the letter against the candlelight. It was lit and thrown into the brazier.
Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes and looked across the tent towards the location of the Prince's old mansion in the capital with complicated eyes, as if he could see the beautiful figure in the Prince's old mansion through the camp and the thick city wall.
She is ten months pregnant and about to give birth.
Liu Mingzhi did not doubt that the content of this letter was fabricated by Li Ye to deceive him.
In the past, when I had a private meeting with Chen Jie in Xinzhou Station, I felt that it was abnormal for Chen Jie to gain weight.
And asked her if she was pregnant.
However, she denied it, saying that she had drunk saffron after having an affair with her in the prince's old palace, and she covered it up with the excuse that she would inevitably gain weight due to the depression in the palace.
Due to the situation at that time, I did not continue to investigate further.
Unexpectedly, what he said came true, and Chen Jie was really pregnant with Liujia.
It's really ironic. After Wenren Yunshu and she had a smooth relationship, Ye Yehuanhao always wanted to get pregnant but never got her wish.
Chen Jie, who had only had two romantic relationships with him, and who drank medicines such as saffron, was afraid of having a baby, but she was pregnant with Liujia and was about to give birth.
These two lobbyists were very hard-pressed.
Liu Mingzhi stood up and wandered around the tent with his hands behind his back.
Stop fighting and make peace!
This is obviously an expedient measure of the imperial court.
But with Chen Jie and the unborn baby in her belly, if she insists on attacking the city, what if Li Ye's brain gets hot......
His unborn child may be stillborn, or even one and two.
But if he really stopped fighting and made peace, and fell into Li Ye's delaying strategy, the consequences would be disastrous.
Raising troops to rebel is an action with no retreat.
Even if Li Ye was 90% sincere in appeasing himself and not wanting to fight with him, he couldn't risk the remaining 10% of the crisis.
Once Li Yeqiu settles the accounts.
Not only will he die, but his family members will also be implicated.
Even the brothers under his command are at risk of being joined together.
It is simply impossible for oneself to call it quits and make peace without even thinking about it.
But if I attack the city as promised, what will I do about the safety of my unborn child and Chen Jie?
Chen Jie... no... Chen Jie, mother and son, or mother and daughter, these two lobbyists, really have their own lifeline in their hands.
Walking towards the outside of the big tent, looking up at the bright moonlight in the sky, Liu Mingzhi showed a rare sense of confusion in his eyes!
It was impossible to ignore the safety of Chen Jie and her unborn child, nor to ignore the safety of hundreds of thousands of brothers under his command, Liu Mingzhi.
What was before him was a dilemma.
He stared blankly at the moonlight in the sky and fell into a trance.
I don't know how long he had been here, but Liu Mingzhi came back to his senses, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he turned and walked towards the tent.
"Saffron!"
Liu Mingzhi murmured these three words softly, picked up the pen and started writing at the desk.
It takes about two sticks of incense.
Liu Mingzhi appeared in the northwest corner outside the big tent, looked at Qinglong in front of him, and handed over the sealed letter.
"Find a way to get it into the hands of the old man."
"Yes, Master, do you have any other instructions?"
"Give a message to Baihu and Xuanwu, and ask them to lead the brothers to hibernate and pay attention to every move in the capital, in case the Spy Shadow people do anything else."
"Got the order!"
Qinglong's figure disappeared under the moonlight during several ups and downs.
Liu Mingzhi sighed and glanced towards the city.
"Chen Jie, my child, I can't treat the lives of a whole family and two hundred thousand brothers as child's play.
At this point, I can only resort to the trick. Chen Jie, Chen Jie, you must not do anything stupid! "
After talking to himself, Liu Mingzhi rushed back towards the military tent with a solemn expression.
The stars move, the moon sets and the sun rises.
It took less than a stick of incense to see the light in the east. In the smoke from the Six Guards Camp of the New Army, a soldier carrying a long bow rushed toward the city gate without fear.
The already tense atmosphere on the city wall suddenly became even more tense due to the arrival of the soldiers.
Nangong Ye, who had just closed his eyes for less than an hour, was summoned by the soldiers and immediately rushed to the bottom of the city tower, leaning forward to look under the city gate.
The soldier reined in his horse and stopped outside the moat. He looked at the many generals who were leaning over the city wall to watch him. He calmly took off the light bow on his back and took out an arrow without an arrow tied with a piece of silk cloth. He began to bend his bow and shoot arrows at the tall city wall.
Nangong Ye reached out and grabbed it, and the arrow stopped steadily in Nangong Ye's generous palm.
Looking at the message on the arrow shaft, Nangong Ye's eyes were so complicated that he couldn't express them in words.
Liu Mingzhi really sent the message as promised!
“General Nangong, my commander-in-chief has something to tell you.
When the sun rises three poles, attack the city immediately and ask General Nangong to prepare.
Resign from humble position. "
Looking at the soldiers who rode back to camp without hesitation, Nangong Ye took off the slogan on the arrow shaft and read it a few times.
Looking blankly at the content of the essay, Nangong Ye frowned and sighed.
Sure enough, although the statement did not explicitly mention the Fengyundu assassination, it had already mentioned something implicitly.
To sum up, it doesn’t matter if the king forces the minister to rebel, the minister has to rebel!
"Marquis Jingyuan, Marquis Guan Ning, please pay close attention to the movements outside the city. I will enter the palace immediately to meet the emperor."
"Got the order!"
After Nangong Ye left, Jingyuan, Chen Jin and others stared nervously at the movement outside the city, daring not to leave even an inch.
The sun gradually rose, and Nangong Ye still did not return the city wall. Outside the still silent capital city, the sound of war drums rang out one after another in the military camps outside the city gates.
Jingyuan waited for their tiger bodies to tremble, and sweat suddenly covered their foreheads.
It's over, King Bingjian has already started to beat the drum to gather the generals.
"what to do?"
"What can we do? King Bingjian didn't give any chance to negotiate. He said he would attack the city with three poles at sunrise, so he attacked the city with three poles at sunrise. He could only send orders to meet the enemy.
You first send orders to the soldiers to prepare for war. I will go to the palace immediately to see what the imperial court is planning! "
"Okay, go back quickly, I can't stand two walls by myself."
"knew!"
Guan Ninghou just ran towards the bottom of the city wall.
Groups of cavalry rushed out of the camp in an orderly manner and scattered toward the fields outside the city wall.
Then the soldiers and horses who abandoned their horses and became pawns also poured out of the camp in dense formation, escorting the cannons that shone with cold light and pressed towards the bottom of the city wall step by step.
Liu Mingzhi walked out of the military camp in full armor, holding the command flag in one hand and holding the hilt of the Heavenly Sword in the other.
"Let's meet the commander-in-chief!"
"No gift!"
"See the Marshal!"
"See the Marshal!"
"See the Marshal!"
"All officers and soldiers are exempt from the gift!"
"Commander!"
"The humble position is here!"
"Blow the drums and sound the trumpets. Three rounds of drums will fall. Attack the city immediately!"
"Got the order!"
