In front of the Taiji front hall between the Tai Yuan and the garden, there are two groups of people confronting each other, one of them is a neatly armored and cold soldier, there are hundreds of people, the queue is orderly, and the battle is waiting. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the other side, the formation was much more scattered, consisting of a group of unarmed men, who seemed to have factional differences from each other, unlike the strong soldiers on the opposite side, many of whom were old and gray-haired, and were at a distinct disadvantage in terms of numbers and formation.

However, now in terms of momentum, those neatly armed soldiers are at a disadvantage, and the blades of the guns in their hands do not even dare to point directly at each other, but at the ground. The unarmed men on the opposite side were very arrogant, and they pressed forward step by step, pointing at the soldiers on the opposite side, many of them loudly reprimanded and insulted, and some of them even stepped forward to kick and beat those soldiers who seemed to be fierce but did not dare to fight back.

"Rebel Kuangshu quickly hand over His Majesty the Emperor!"

"The king returns to the city, the rebels are ambushed, and the rebels are rebellious, if you dare to coerce the king to respect yourself, I will not spare you!"

At this time, Kuang Shu's face standing in the side hall was already gloomy to the extreme, his clenched fists were full of green muscles, his brows were frowned, his eyes were almost about to breathe fire, and he looked at Shen Ke next to him and said hatefully: "Shen Ziming, tell me the truth, can Shen Lang come in time?" The crowd outside is surging, but I can bear it! ”

Shen Ke also knew that Kuang Shu was in a bad and anxious mood at this time, and as soon as the ministers outside learned that the king had returned to the capital and was about to get out of trouble, the original caution suddenly disappeared, and one by one their arrogance became extremely arrogant. Earlier, Liu Chaodian, the general of the right guard, went to dissuade them from being impatient, not to disturb His Majesty the Emperor, and was even slandered by them for colluding with the rebel generals to blackmail the monarch to respect himself, so angry that Liu Chao did not even return to the palace, and left here directly to find the family members who had moved into Taicheng earlier.

What ideas these people have in their hearts, Shen Ke doesn't know, His Majesty the Emperor can't hand it over to them anyway. But seeing that these people will not give up until they achieve their goals, the anxiety in Shen Ke's heart is not much worse than Kuangshu. Each of these people took refuge in or elected a certain important minister, and with his humble qualifications, he could not control the scene at all.

Kuang Jun also knew that now that the gate of Taicheng had been controlled by Lu Yong, Wei Zhou would inevitably be obstructed. Don't worry, as long as you can drag it out too much, and when Wei Zhou arrives here, you will naturally be able to stabilize the situation! ”

Shen Ke's face was solemn and comforted Kuang Shu.

After Kuang Shu heard this, he sneered: "It's easy for you to say, then you teach me how to drag me through the eyes?" Now among these people, I am not only a disloyal minister who plots rebellion, but also an unrighteous person who turns his back on his father! Killing people is worse than swords, how can you make me feel at ease! ”

Shen Ke can also understand Kuangshu's bad attitude. He was able to kill Xu Fang and regain control of the Taiji Front Palace, and he thought in his heart that he was guilty of meritorious service, but now because he blocked a group of Taiwanese ministers, it can be said that he was angry. With a descendant like him, who has no foundation in the court, he naturally has to worry about how to gain a foothold in Jiangdong after committing public anger.

"Half an hour, wait another half hour! If Wei Zhou still can't come here, I will go out with you to welcome Wang Taibao and other princes, presumably Wei Zhou can also understand that we have done our best. Even if I don't care about the merits of surrender, in the past few months, I have been in the capital thanks to Kuang Jun's kind help and preservation, as long as I don't die for a day, I will never live up to this kindness! The coming day is a sin and a reward, and I share it with Kuang Jun! ”

"I'll believe you again!"

Kuang Shu pondered for a long time before slowly nodding and saying. Immediately, he ordered his subordinates to transfer a cronies, although he did not dare to use force against these ministers, and used his flesh and blood to block the front hall of Taiji.

Seeing that the sky was gradually brightening, the ministers gradually became anxious, and a large number of people stepped forward to push and squeeze out, and some people even tried to snatch the blades of those soldiers to fight their way out.

At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps sounded from behind, and the people standing on the periphery of the confrontation turned around and saw hundreds of brave soldiers slowly approaching from the south. These sergeants are different from the guards in the front hall of Taiji, with solemn expressions, and the armor on their bodies still has blood stains that have not dried up, which makes people awe-inspiring when they look at it.

As early as outside the city, when he learned that Lu Yong occupied Xuanyang Gate, Shen Zhezi had already guessed what thoughts the ministers were brewing, and he didn't feel strange when he saw the chaotic scene in front of him.

More and more people discovered this newly arrived army, and naturally recognized Shen Zhezi standing in front of the team, and some people couldn't help but feel embarrassed in their hearts, and they withdrew and wanted to come forward to say a few words, but seeing that many of those soldiers had already drawn their bows, with their bloody bloody qi, it made people shudder. So they all hesitated and stepped aside.

A Longxi soldier stepped forward with a scepter and said loudly: "Shen Zhezi, the commander of the horse and the general of Zhaowu, has been ordered by Her Majesty the Empress Dowager to return to the king of Duqin, and those who obstruct it will be regarded as rebellion and killed!" ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces couldn't help but change, and there were originally people who wanted to encourage everyone to step forward to block the road. In their opinion, Shen Zhezi is young after all, and may not be able to assert himself or perceive the stakes, as long as he obstructs them for a moment, they can rush into the palace to occupy the position in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and determine the distinction between the host and the guest, they may not be without the power to compete.

But when the other party came up, he seized the great righteousness of the Empress Dowager's edict, and then saw that those sergeants really had the momentum of killing people if they didn't agree with each other, and no one dared to step forward to test whether Shen Zhezi had the courage for a while. Especially those ministers on the side of the Langya Wang family, they knew the arrangements made by Wang Taibao, and when they saw Lu Yong standing behind Shen Zhezi, their expressions were even more full of defeat.

"It's coming, it's coming, it's finally here!"

Shen Ke in the side hall heard the movement outside, and almost collapsed with a long breath, only to find that his clothes had already been soaked with sweat. And Kuang Shu next to him was not much better than Shen Ke at this time, the pressure in his heart was a little more serious than Shen Ke, and when he saw Shen Zhezi coming, he was shocked by the scene, and he almost couldn't help crying with joy, secretly sighing that his persistence was not wrong.

He arched his hand to Shen Ke, and then ordered his subordinates to send the sackcloth and plain robes that had been prepared long ago to change on his body, and took two attachés to each hold the scepter given by Su Jun and seal the letter, and hurriedly walked out of the side hall.

The soldiers guarding the front hall of Taiji slowly separated a road at this time, and Kuang Shu, who was dressed in plain robes, walked through the road, and quickly walked to Shen Zhezi and knelt down deeply: "The criminal minister Kuangshu, waiting for the king for a long time, although it is under the king's command, it is difficult to pay for the previous crime, please make the king punish!" ”

Shen Zhezi was also a little surprised that Kuangshu could persist until now, on the way, he had already prepared to use force to snatch back the emperor, and now this result is excellent. For Kuangshu, who took refuge in himself early in the morning, there is no need to pretend to be a gesture, especially Shen Zhezi also knows that Kuangshu will inevitably bear a lot of pressure and bear a lot of grievances in order to obstruct the ministers. Now his own statement has a great impact on how Kuang Shu's treatment after the demotion is great.

He took a step forward, bent down to help Kuang Shu up, patted the other party on the shoulder and laughed: "Although Kuang Gong has a reverse record, he can protect His Majesty the Emperor from intrusion when he is in danger and welcome the king, which can be described as a complete courtier." ”

As the first to attack Jiankang and enter Taicheng, Shen Zhezi's evaluation can be said to set a tone for Kuangshu's deeds, although there is no great praise, but a sentence of "the courtiers are complete" washed away the crime of rebellion on Kuangshu. Of course, if the emperor is taken away by the ministers, and there are auxiliary ministers such as Wang Dao and Lu Ye in the name of the emperor, Shen Zhezi's merits and demerits will still be handed over to others for judgment, and the words he says will naturally have no such legal power.

Kuang Shu's nose was sour when he heard this, and he almost couldn't help crying, not because he was grateful to Shen Zhezi, but because he felt that his choice and persistence were not in vain, and he finally got the early reward.

Signaling his subordinates to lead Kuang Shu behind him, Shen Zhezi stepped forward and said to those Taiwanese ministers with different expressions: "The younger generation is carrying the edict of the Empress Dowager to attack Gyeonggi, and it is a fluke, and now I want to enter the palace to see His Majesty the Emperor, and then worship the princes after facing the monarch." ”

Although everyone had different ideas, they didn't know what to do at this time, so they could only return the salute and dare not obstruct it.

Now that the king has arrived, he naturally took over the defense of the Taiji front hall, and the troops of Kuangshu have retreated and returned to the entrances and exits to defend. Shen Zhezi went to see the emperor, but he stood in front of the palace and watched the soldiers change their guards, and when he saw that there were still many Taiwanese ministers standing outside the palace, he said loudly: "Although the king has entered the capital, the rebels have not been completely suppressed, please return to your residence, so as not to be harmed by the rebellious army!" ”

Although the tone is peaceful, the meaning inside is very clear, who dares to dangle outside again, the rebel army may kill them in Taicheng in minutes!

Someone heard this sound, and their faces couldn't help but become a little ugly, and after a while, someone stepped forward and asked, "May I ask Shen Lang, when the royal division returns to attack Gyeonggi, apart from your department, which one will be in the capital?" ”

"This is a military secret of Taiwan, and it is inconvenient to tell each other, so as not to be known to the rebels."

Shen Zhezi first arched his hand to the man and replied, and then turned his head to look at the guard, and his tone was already murderous: "Taichung military management is vigilant, and if there are people who privately discuss the military affairs of the Wang Division, they will be regarded as rebels against the party, and they will be killed!" ”

The man was dumbfounded by Shen Zhezi's words, and his expression was already extremely embarrassed, in addition to asking this question, in addition to really wanting to know which departments had captured Jiankang, in fact, he also really warned Shen Zhezi not to rely on himself to enter Taicheng first and then act as a prestige, and force the people with soldiers, after all, there are the rest of the Wang Division outside. But he couldn't even think that the so-called Wang Shi was actually in front of his eyes!

Seeing that there were still people who didn't give up on their love stacks, Shen Zhezi really felt that he couldn't give these dog skin plasters a good face, so he simply ordered directly: "In order to prevent the rebellion from infiltrating Taicheng and plotting against it, clean up Taicheng after a quarter of an hour, and those who are still lingering outside will be arrested and dealt with by military law!" ”

As soon as this order was spoken, it was immediately effective, and the ministers who were still lingering in front of the palace left the place one after another. It's just that before leaving, there was a lot of resentment on his face.

At this time, Shen Ke also hurriedly greeted him in the side hall, and when he saw Shen Zhezi with Rong Jia on his body, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak at all, but there were tears in his eyes. What he worked hard in Taicheng for a long time was the moment in front of him, and from the moment Shen Zhezi set foot in Taicheng, their entire Shen family was completely different from before!

"Thank you uncle!"

Looking at Shen Ke, who was already so excited that he couldn't speak, Shen Zhezi also felt a lot of nostalgia in his heart. Standing in front of the Tai Chi front hall, he couldn't help but feel the tide of excitement, he was only one step away from the palace gate, but for this step, all the efforts in the past suddenly broke out at this moment!

Taking this step, his life, the fate of the Shen family, the situation in Jiangdong and even the general trend of the whole world will usher in a new chapter!

The sun jumped out of the horizon, and the light fell on the earth again!
