Zhengtong Hall.
Yang Xing fell down on the stone steps outside Zhengtong Hall, panting heavily, his face flushed.
The rebels almost entered the Zhengtong Hall just now, but fortunately the Jinwu Guards arrived and dispersed the rebels.
Otherwise, he will only be a prince in this life.
Donggong Zhanshi Qian Zhang ran over in a panic. Although he was injured, his joy of surviving the disaster was beyond words.
"Your Highness, the rebels have retreated!"
Yang Xing suddenly pulled Qian Zhang: "Did an old eunuch come just now?"
Qian Zhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, that old eunuch was so powerful. He killed more than a dozen rebels by himself, and then he left when he saw Jin Wuwei coming to kill him."
"Did you see what he looked like clearly?"
Qian Zhang was confused: "Your Highness, who is he? Why don't you ask Manager Li to find out who it is later?"
Yang Xing had doubts on his face: "It looks like an old friend, but I didn't see it clearly. Well, you go find Li Xuan and check it out!"
Immediately, Yang Xing's eyes became sharp: "Longxi Family Group is using the banner of the third child. This time, the third child may not end well!"
Qian Zhang smiled and said: "It is inevitable, Your Highness, it is stable."
Immediately, Qian Zhang added: "Your Highness, you should visit His Majesty now, so that you can get ahead of everything!"
"Yes, where is Yang Zhan?"
"have no idea."
Yang Xing was helped up by Qian Zhang, who immediately shouted: "General Jinwu Guard, send some people to escort the Crown Prince to the Tiansheng Palace!"
"The last general takes command!"
Yang Xing looked at the strong man with a strong back and said, "What's your name?"
"Last General Jinwu Guard Deputy General Hu Lie!"
Yang Xing glanced at Hu Lie and nodded: "You are a tiger general. I will definitely ask for credit for you!"
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Then, Hu Lie led a team of troops to escort Yang Xing to Tiansheng Palace.
Halfway along the road, suddenly there was a eunuch riding a fast horse, holding an imperial edict, and shouted: "Yang Zhanping made the first contribution to the rebellion, and he was awarded the title of General Hussar and was given the general's palace!"
"Yang Zhan has made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, and he was granted the title of Hussar..."
Yang Xing was sitting in the chariot. When he heard this, he couldn't help but opened the curtain and looked at the eunuch who was riding away quickly. After a long time, there were still shouts.
At this time, Qian Zhang, who was accompanying him, was shocked.
Then he bowed his hands to the prince and said, "His Royal Highness is wise, no wonder he tried to protect Yang Zhan!"
Yang Xing was also refreshed, but he asked strangely: "This emperor father decreed a reward, why did the eunuchs shout all the way?"
Qian Zhang smiled and said: "Your Majesty wants everyone in the city to know that General Yang has made great achievements, and great achievements will be rewarded!"
"Don't worry about it, go to Wende Hall quickly!"
"yes!"
…
Hall of Wende.
It has been tidied up and looks even more empty.
The old emperor sat in the rocking chair and became even older.
Li Xuan's voice came from outside.
"General Zheng, untie the sword!"
The old emperor said: "What kind of sword is there? General Zheng has no sword in his hand tonight. My life is about to be lost here. Let General Zheng come in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, General Zheng, please!"
Zheng Dao, wearing a battle armor, strode in!
His armor was stained with blood, and there was a sword hanging from his waist. His face was filled with fortitude.
He cupped his fists and said in a loud voice: "General Zheng Dao, pay homage to Your Majesty!"
The old emperor looked at Zheng Dao and smiled: "Yes, I have a strong general like you in Daxia. Why worry about rebellion and unrest on the border? No need to be polite!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The old emperor said: "Did you hear just now that for Yang Zhanping's first contribution to the rebellion, I made him a hussar general and gave him the general's palace?"
Zheng Dao looked coldly: "The general heard it."
"Feeling dissatisfied?"
"The last general dare not, General Yang will take the first responsibility for protecting His Majesty!"
The old emperor's eyes narrowed: "I heard that you were once a member of the Shenwu Army?"
"Yes, the last general was once the Zhonglang General of the Shenwu Army. Thanks to His Majesty's grace, he was able to be transferred to the post of General Jinwuwei!"
The old emperor nodded: "That's because Yang Zhan asked for credit for you back then, so I'm sure."
Zheng Dao's expression did not change much.
The old emperor looked at Zheng Dao's face: "Aren't you afraid that others will say you are ungrateful and have no regard for past friendships when you arrest Yang Zhan?"
"I don't know why some people would say and think this way. What I do is worthy of God's grace and worthy of the common people!"
"That's good, but what if I let you kill people?"
Zheng Dao clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, please give the order!"
The old emperor narrowed his eyes: "Everyone from the Longxi family who participated in the rebellion in the capital, including the generals who came out of the prison, will be captured. The rebels will be stripped of their armor and surrounded in the camp. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Also, take the four jailers in Tianlao yourself and kill them yourself!"
Zheng Dao suddenly raised his head.
The old emperor frowned: "Why, you don't want to?"
"General Mo is not unwilling, he just wants to know what these four jailers did!"
"Following the wrong person!"
Zheng Dao lowered his head: "The last general will obey the order!"
Zheng Dao took the order and left. The old emperor narrowed his eyes: "Yes or no, it all depends on whether your sword can kill people!"
At this time, Li Xuan was outside requesting an order: "Your Majesty, Chief Eagle Eye wants to see you. There is news from the north!"
"Xuan!"
"Your Majesty, the situation with the Tianwu Army guarding the border is clear!"
"The Tianwu Army guarding the border entered Chengu Xueyuan?"
The old emperor's face was cold, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Tianwu Army went out for training at night and got lost. It was only after dawn that they found their way back. Now they have returned to their base."
The old emperor was stunned.
boom!
The old emperor slapped the table in front of him, frightening Master Hawkeye to the point where he knelt on the ground.
The old emperor took several deep breaths before he recovered.
The corners of his eyes twitched, and after a long time, he sighed: "Am I really getting old?"
Li Xuan also hurriedly knelt down and lay on the ground with Chief Hawkeye, not daring to speak.
…
The border between Daxia and Fenglin countries.
The Tianwu Army who stayed behind returned to their base.
General Chen Lianyi looked at the tied up general with a dark face.
"Meng Dahu, do you know your guilt?"
Meng Dahu looked unconvinced: "General Chen, I don't know what crime my subordinate has committed?"
"Hmph, during a drill, you actually led the wrong way and let the army wander around all night. If there is a problem at the border, wouldn't it miss a major military and national event?"
Meng Dahu said with a sad face: "What an injustice. The mountains are covered with heavy snow, and it is dark night. It is difficult to distinguish the path. This is definitely not an intentional mistake on the part of my subordinates. Please tell me, General!"
At this time, Lieutenant General Guo Yun cupped his fists and said, "General Chen, I saw that Meng Dahu made an unintentional mistake and later took the wrong path. Isn't it difficult for others to discern the path?"
Chen Lianyi glanced at Guo Yun: "This general knows that General Guo and this Meng Dahu were once generals of the Shenwu Army, but do you really think he is right about this? He is in charge of the scouts. Even if it is difficult to identify the path, when he goes there, he will Time to mark!”
"It snowed last night, and the mark was buried by the snow, making it even more difficult to find at night." Guo Yun said again: "But General Chen's words are serious. Although my subordinates and Meng Dahu are both from the Shenwu Army, they are now members of the Tianwu Army. "
"Humph, this Meng Dahu must be punished severely. His Majesty, who is far away in Tiandu City, just sent people to investigate. It means that what happened last night has been known to your Majesty. Who can bear the blame? Eunuch Liu has already said that this must be punished. Meng Dahu was escorted to Tiandu City and handed over to the Ministry of War for disposal!"
Guo Yun frowned: "General Chen, we are all brothers..."
"How presumptuous! If you continue to speak for him, the general will have reason to suspect that you and Meng Dahu secretly colluded to cause the army to get lost!"
Meng Dahu immediately roared: "Sir, I'm not guilty. I'm not afraid of you wherever you go. Chen, I've been putting up with you for a long time. If you don't have the skills to be the commander of the army, you won't show off your behavior by taking a piss!"
"You want to be impudent, take him away, take him away quickly, take him to Tiandu City for trial, come here, pen and ink, this general wants to join Meng Dahu, who has no military discipline!"
Guo Yun frowned and said nothing more.
Meng Dahu was escorted out, and Guo Yun also walked out.
Guo Yun looked at the sergeant who wanted to escort Meng Dahu: "Let me have a few words with Meng Dahu."
"Yes, General Guo!"
The two sergeants left, Meng Dahu grinned and said: "You can be envious, I'm going to Tiandu City to see my second brother!"
Guo Yun's brows still furrowed: "Is it the second brother's secret order that made you deliberately lead the wrong way?"
Meng Dahu said with a straight face: "I just made an unintentional mistake. I didn't mean it."
"Good boy, you even hid it from me?"
Meng Dahu looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Why are you asking so many questions!"
Guo Yun took a deep breath and frowned: "If it is the second brother's intention, then there is a problem in Tianducheng or Beiji."
Meng Dahu said indifferently: "With my second brother here, it won't matter if the sky falls. Okay, don't worry about it. We still need you here, so I didn't involve you, so don't say anything for me." Enough said, let’s go!”
As he said that, Meng Dahu turned his head and shouted: "Come on, take me away. Sir, bring me the horse. I have to go to Tiandu City to be tried as soon as possible!"
