After listening to Xia Chengcan's story, Ou Luhai felt like a thunderbolt struck his head. He was dumbfounded and the corners of his lips trembled slightly. He found it difficult to say even half a sentence.
"His Royal Highness Prince Zhi was actually killed by him... that was his biological brother!" Ou Luhai thought sadly, his gray eyebrows stood up, and his old eyes were full of tears, "Yi Wang, The fight between King Jaw and King Zhi for the throne can be described as a battle between gentlemen. The three kings have been fighting openly and secretly inside and outside the court for more than ten years. Although they are also capable of conspiracy, they have never used killing moves. Firstly, they value the closeness of flesh and blood, and secondly they dare not pursue personal interests. You are deposed. Prince Yun, why are you so confused!"
Thinking that he had tricked me into going north to check and balance the White Horse Army Camp for him, but that he had actually led more than 20,000 people to leave the base and go north for nearly two thousand miles, I couldn't help but feel pain, hatred, anger, and shame, and sighed again and again.
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for coming to tell me!" Ou Luhai bowed and bowed persistently, and said in a deep voice, "If I hadn't received this report today, I, Ou Luhai, would have helped Zhou to persecute the country and become a criminal! Oh, I am so ashamed! So ashamed. ah!"
The court treated him well, and King Zhi was his best friend. Thinking of the evil things his son-in-law had done, he was really ashamed and kept his head slightly lowered.
"General Ou, it's not surprising if you don't know!" Xia Chengcan held him up with both hands and said sternly, "General Ou is the pillar of Dahua's protection of the country. Before the accident, my father had even submitted a memorial to the emperor's grandfather, recommending you to be appointed as the general. . It is precisely because of my father’s trust in the general that Chengcan dares to come here today to persuade me.”
"Alas, I, Ou Luhai, am really unworthy of the emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Zhi!" Ou Luhai looked miserable and looked gloomy. He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Where is the prince going on this trip?"
He thought that it was impossible for Xia Chengcan to come here specifically to persuade him?
"Chengxuan was determined to end things with Prince Yun's Mansion. He also knew that Xia Muyan was responsible for my father's affair, so he invited me to go north. I rode to the outside of Gaizhou City with more than 4,000 people, and was preparing to enter the city to rest for the night. , prepare dry food and continue on the road tomorrow morning. I don’t want the city defenders to fear that our two armies will conflict and prevent us from entering. I remembered my father’s words and entered the city alone." Xia Chengcan replied in a clear voice.
"That's it." Ou Luhai nodded and said, "Let's go to the city gate and lead the soldiers in white clothes outside the city into the city to rest."
... ...
Eight years ago, with the help of Duan Muyu, Xia Muyan began to secretly train dead soldiers on an island three hundred miles away from the mainland in the Honghai Sea. Over the years, the dead soldiers who passed the examination have left the island one after another. The more than 700 people who went to Jinzhou and the capital were the last batch to leave the island. Before that, he had secretly recruited the scattered Honghai dead soldiers back to the capital and hid them in three large villages less than five miles away from Prince Yun's mansion.
It is said that raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a short period of time means that when it is time to use the army, both good and bad soldiers have to rush to the battlefield. But Xia Muyan definitely didn't realize that the two hundred and fifty "bad soldiers" he sent were not the enemies of the Nine Halls' small sub-rudder.
With two thousand golden guards and five hundred soldiers, He Fukai followed Xia Muyan's wishes and deceived him to be more truthful. If he wanted to fish, he had to be willing to take the bait.
Originally, he had concerns about sending so many people away from the palace to reopen, but he remembered that the prince had told him before that even if no one of the guards was left, Prince Yun's palace would be safe. Xia Muyan spoke with great certainty when he said that. He Fukai knew the prince's nature, so since he said this, he must have made careful arrangements. What's more, what He Fukai holds in his hand is already a powerful force. The one held by the prince himself must be much stronger. It is no problem to protect the prince's palace.
Two thousand five hundred people escorted four unicorn chariots and rushed towards the palace. The sentries on both sides of the queue looked left and right, fully alert. None of the two thousand five hundred people knew that the person sitting inside was not Xia Muyan.
"There is an enemy situation!" the sentry on duty warned in a low voice.
Baili Yi was taking a nap with his eyes closed. After hearing the news from the sentry, his tiger eyes suddenly opened. He bent his feet slightly and jumped onto the roof of the street shop. Sure enough, two or three miles away, a group of people and horses were marching quickly towards here with torches in hand.
"Every team prepares for battle! Once the team in front approaches, everyone will use hidden weapons to attack from a distance. After using the hidden weapons, they will charge forward." Bai Liyi ordered in a deep voice.
"Thum...thum...thum...thum..."
The sound of carriages and horses was getting closer and closer, and Prince Yun's chariot team finally entered the ambush circle of 1,500 people.
"Do it!" Baili Yi shouted loudly. As he spoke, he gathered his strength and threw out the twelve plum-blossom darts in his hand. In the blink of an eye, the twelve leading cavalrymen fell to the ground.
Hao Haishan, the centurion guard of Prince Yun's Mansion who led the team, hurriedly shouted behind him: "Be on guard, protect the prince!"
As soon as he finished speaking, forty-eight horsemen on both sides of the chariot formed a "three three on the left, three on the right" formation, tightly surrounding the four-chariot chariot, and used their own bodies to form a temporary barrier. Xia Muyang's personal guards could use their bodies as a barrier for him, so Xia Muyan's personal guards were not afraid of giving in.
"Team Geng, Yin, and Gui will keep the chariot team where they are. Team Mao and Xin will follow me up!" Hao Haishan shouted sternly. Yan Bi pulled out his saber and took the lead and rushed into the alley beside him. Suddenly, the sound of sharp objects chopping meat could be heard in the alley.
Obviously, Hao Haishan is a master!
"Kill! Kill~~~" Nearly a thousand Jin Guards and Prince Zhi's soldiers followed his footsteps and rushed into the street corners and alleys on both sides. The sound of swords and guns hacking together resounded throughout the street.
Watchdogs barked one after another in neighboring mansions...
"Master, did you hear that? There are people killing people outside!" A young woman screamed in the darkness.
Then, an old man replied impatiently: "Lie down! Lie down! Don't pay attention, Bento didn't hear it."
The woman was confused and asked: "Why? Aren't you afraid that they will come and kill you? We have to hide for a while!"
The old man yelled angrily: "Nonsense! It's just a woman's opinion! Didn't you hear that the noise on the street was so loud that it was definitely not a crime committed by a gangster? Most likely there were people from the imperial court on both sides. The old emperor had been ill for a while. Well, maybe someone from the royal family is vying for the throne. At this time, just stay in the house to ensure that everything is fine. If you go out, you will be accidentally killed. "
The woman said dubiously: "No way?"
"You are still young and don't understand these things. I saw such a scene once when I was a teenager. Oh, how bloody! From this street to that street, royal relatives were killed every day, and every few days Then there was an attack on the palace, which was even more uneasy than now. Didn't you survive it? Don't be afraid, the people in the capital have never seen anything. When the new emperor comes to power, nothing will happen. Go to sleep!" The old man said He said that with satisfaction, then turned around and went to sleep.
... ...
Xia Muyan was sitting in the hall, feeling a little anxious, and suddenly wanted to listen to Ou Xixi's piano music again. With this thought, his legs naturally walked towards Xiyuan.
