Chapter 11 The eighteenth section of the long river and the setting of the sun The eldest princess slowly opened the white silk, and a line of strong and powerful words jumped into her eyes,

"Guarding the Princess". This familiar font is like a source of strength, every time she reads it, she feels the powerful force of the general, and feels the love and endless sadness buried in the heart of the general.

The general wanted to stay by his side and use his strong body to shield himself from the wind and rain, but he drove him away and deeply hurt the general.

The eldest princess carefully folded the silk silk and held it tightly in her hand.

"Do you believe the General?" Lu Bu didn't hesitate, and said loudly without thinking: "No one is trusted by the minister now. Even if the Son of Heaven came in person, he didn't want to let the ministers leave the palace. "The house was full of surprise.

"The minister has experienced the Luoyang Mutiny and the Chang'an Mutiny, and the minister knows how to protect His Royal Highness and how to defend Sheji at this time," Lu Bu raised his hand and swore an ......oath,

"Unless His Highness kills the minister, the minister will never leave His Highness half a step." He Feng was furious. Only the general's warrant is understood by himself, and at this moment of crisis, it is complicit to transfer troops without authorization, but as long as the eldest princess accepts this warrant and acquiesces in her actions, she is the hero who protects the princess and guards the society.

However, this requires a premise, that is, his army must enter the palace and must be firmly guarded by the eldest princess's side, otherwise the eldest princess's acquiescence will change at any time, and she will become a rebel at any time.

What's even more terrifying is that if Li Wei succeeds in preventing the Northern Army from leaving the camp now, then he who was the first to mobilize the army and bring the army to Liyang will become the initiator of the mutiny.

He and his subordinates will be surrounded and annihilated, and the general will be implicated. Under the coercion of Zhang Yan and Li Wei, the eldest princess was forced by the situation and had to bow her head.

But in this way, the general was completely driven out of the court, while Zhang Yan, Li Wei and others completely controlled the authority.

The seamless layout, it's ridiculous that this idiot was so dizzy by Li Wei's words that he pulled the army out of Chang'an City.

Thinking about going out of the city, Xu Rong and Xian Yufu stopped in front of their horses and begged bitterly, but they were so dizzy that they didn't listen to it at all.

It's too late to regret.

"Lord Lu, don't you know who your subordinates are? In the fourth battalion of the Southern Army, except for Zhang Falcon, the other Guo Xun, Yang Yi and Liu Yu were all born in the Yellow Turban, did they listen to you or Zhang Yan? He Feng shouted,

"Hu Ben and Yu Lin Jun have been under Zhang Yan's hands for the past few years, and Tian Da has only been in the palace for a few days? Can he control these tigers and feather forests? ”

"Immediately take the order, obey the order of the eldest princess, and leave the palace." He Feng was furious and roared wildly.

"What a madman, are you looking for death......" Lu Bu stood up suddenly. Because the action was too fast, Tian Yu, who was kneeling behind him, was caught off guard and was knocked to the back with a long sword in his hand

"Bang ......" came out of the sheath. He Feng was shocked, and the right hand holding the handle of the knife subconsciously pulled out half of the battle knife,

"You want to rebel?" There was a sudden chaos in the hall, and the tiger guards outside the hall saw Tian Yu fall to the ground, thinking that he had been attacked, and immediately rushed in.

The shouts of "arrest the thief" rose to the sky. Guo Xun, Yang Yi, Liu Yu, and Zhang Ying, the generals of the Southern Army waiting outside the hall, thought that the eldest princess had been assassinated, and they were so frightened that their souls flew out of the sky, and they shouted hoarsely one by one, and ran all the way with their personal guards, and rushed into the palace like a fly.

He Feng didn't even think about it, the war knife roared out, his body was like electricity, and he was protected in front of the eldest princess in an instant.

"Stand down...... Lu Bu turned to face the guard, raised his hands high,

"All down ......"

"What a madman, you dare to kill His Highness......" Guo Xun's eyes were about to split, and he roared continuously,

"Lao Tzu will break your bones and raise your ......"

"You want to rebel?" He Feng opened his eyes angrily, raised his head and shouted,

"The general's 100,000 iron horsemen will enter Beijing immediately, and you will die without a place to be buried." The sudden change made the eldest princess shocked, and her mind went blank.

Prime Minister Cai Yong stood in the middle of the lobby, waving his hands desperately, trying his best to block it, but no one listened to him.

He Feng stood in front of the eldest princess with a knife, which was equivalent to holding a knife on the neck of Lu Bu and others, it was a matter of his own net worth and life, who would not be willing to forget about death?

"Stand down for me......" Xiao Lan appeared on the side of the main hall, her voice was not high, but her tone was extremely stern.

The shouting in the main hall faded into silence. Tiger Guardian was the first to withdraw. Guo Xun and the others waved at their guards, signaling them to retreat immediately.

The hall fell silent.

"Lord He, put the knife away." Xiao Lan glared at He Feng angrily, eager to eat him. He Feng turned his head to look at the eldest princess, and the eldest princess nodded.

He Feng put away his knife and retreated behind the eldest princess. At this time, he didn't dare to go to Lu Bu's side, if he was slashed by him, not only would he die in vain, but he would also be charged with rebellion.

"Master Guo, it's okay here, you guys also step down." Guo Xun, Yang Yi and the others looked up at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "Order the defenders of all city gates to set up all the ballistas, and anyone who approaches the city gate two hundred steps will be killed." Guo Xun and the four of them bowed and retired.

"He madman, ten steps away from His Highness, or I will kill you." Lu Bu pointed at He Feng, word by word, murderous.

The eldest princess, Prime Minister Cai Yong and others were intimidated by Lu Bu's murderous aura, and they were silent and did not dare to come out. He Feng was a little afraid, he was not afraid of Lu Bu's martial arts, but now he was weak, and once he was besieged by Lu Bu and others, he would die.

The eldest princess didn't dare to speak, He Feng didn't dare to leave, but Lu Bu slowly took a step forward, his right hand clenched into a fist,

"Rattling" sounded, and the momentum was terrifying.

"Lord Lu......" Xiao Lan stood in the distance and shouted softly,

"Since you have experienced the two mutinies in Luoyang and Chang'an, you should know how seriously the mutinies have devastated Sheji. Do you want to detonate a mutiny in Liyang? Lu Bu stopped.

"Don't push it anymore, stand back." Xiao Lan said,

"He Feng is not a rebel, he is an idiot." Lu Bu was shocked and involuntarily let go of his fist.

So far, Liyang has not received accurate news that Zhang Yan has held the Son of Heaven hostage and commanded the Northern Army to launch a mutiny.

The mutiny was all based on speculation that Zhang Yan had entered the camp of the Northern Army with the Son of Heaven, and there was no basis for speculation.

The reason why He Feng hurried to Liyang with the army was also due to this unwarranted speculation. If in fact there was no mutiny at all, and Zhang Yan was just stationed in the Northern Army camp to protect the safety of the Son of Heaven, then He Feng's fierce confrontation with himself instead formed a de facto mutiny.

At that time, the initiator of this mutiny will either be He Feng or himself, but no matter who it is, Zhang Yan will use the excuse of saving the eldest princess to command the northern army to attack.

The eldest princess is in danger, and He Feng and himself are also in danger. When Liyang was bloody, the situation changed completely.

The eldest princess is dead, the prime minister is dead,

The "rebellion" died, the general was three thousand miles away, and Zhang Yan and the ministers of the court had plenty of time to arrange everything.

When they have full control of the authority, even if the general returns, he will not be able to change the situation. Lu Bu looked at Xiao Lan and saw the pain and despair in her eyes, extreme pain and despair.

From the time Li Wei deceived He Feng to Liyang, the situation in Kyoto was completely controlled by him. He Feng sent troops to Liyang, in fact, a mutiny had already formed, even if Zhang Yan sent the northern army to attack Chang'an, he would not be charged with launching a mutiny, but became a hero who escorted the rebellion.

In this case, even if Zhang Yan did not intend to launch a mutiny, he could not resist the temptation to control the government, and would inevitably actively cooperate with Li Wei to launch a fierce battle for power.

He Feng has already been fooled, and he can't be fooled again. If you are also tricked, Liyang will definitely be in chaos.

As soon as Liyang is in chaos, the northern army will be killed. When the northern army arrived, the eldest princess had no choice but to urgently transfer reinforcements from outside Kyoto.

Reinforcements from all walks of life entered the pass, and the situation immediately got out of control, and even if the general flew back with wings, he was powerless to save the situation.

When Xiao Lan saw He Feng, she obviously realized the fact that the mutiny had formed, and the situation was irretrievable, so she was in pain and despair.

Now no one is powerless to save the situation, and can only hope for the stability of Liyang and the immediate return of the general to Chang'an.

But now He Feng's army must not enter the city, as long as He Feng's army enters the city, he will become the commander of the mutiny.

Liyang City has the highest military rank and the most troops, but he gave up the eldest princess and the palace to He Feng, isn't this a mutiny?

He will bear the responsibility for launching the mutiny, and he will be determined to die. In addition, if Zhang Yan did launch a mutiny, if He Feng or He Feng's subordinates were Zhang Yan's men, and they hijacked the eldest princess after entering the city, it would be completely over.

However, in the case that it was uncertain whether Zhang Yan launched a mutiny, the eldest princess no longer trusted Huben and Yulin, nor did she trust the Southern Army, which was dominated by Yellow Turban soldiers, she could only believe in any wind.

He Feng is her relative, and he is holding a general's warrant, so of course she will choose He Feng to guard the palace and protect her safety.

Xiao Lan was unable to advise, she was unable to analyze the situation in detail with the eldest princess, which involved her family and relatives.

The Prime Minister is very clear about the reason for the current court fight, he is extremely sure that Zhang Yan has kidnapped the Son of Heaven and is launching a mutiny, he believes in He Feng, he thinks that only He Feng can protect the safety of the eldest princess, and everyone else has a relationship with Zhang Yan and is not trustworthy.

The Prime Minister's judgment was right, but he misunderstood Li Wei, he believed Li Wei, and he was completely unaware that the current situation was being manipulated and controlled by Li Wei.

Lu Bu had no choice, if he wanted to live, if he wanted to keep the eldest princess, if he wanted to buy time for the general to return to Chang'an, he could only disobey the order of the eldest princess, and he could only block He Feng from the city.

He Feng is dead or alive, he can't control it, he can only keep the eldest princess first, and save himself first. Even if the eldest prince wanted to kill him, he would not hand the head to the eldest princess until the general returned.

This is the final bottom line, the bottom line that we have to defend with our lives. Lu Bu knelt down, his expression was extremely resolute,

"Your Highness, the minister will never accept orders. His Royal Highness can kill the minister, but the head of the minister will remain for a few days, and when the general comes back and His Royal Highness is safe, the minister will present the head, and if this oath is violated, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. Xiao Lan burst into tears like rain and bowed deeply to Lu Bu,

"The general is loyal and righteous, and the heavens and the earth can learn from it." Lu Bu threatened death and refused to accept the order, leaving the eldest princess helpless.

"Aiqing retreat, this matter can be discussed later." In the morning, Feng Ho camp. Xian Yufu met with Xiao Tianzi, saying that the mighty general He Feng had led the army to support Liyang, and there was no problem with the safety of the eldest princess, so please wait patiently for a few days in the northern army camp, and wait for the ministers to arrest the rebel and stabilize Chang'an, and then ask Your Majesty to return to the car.

Xiao Tianzi was very happy. He can ride horses and shoot arrows, dance swords and swords in the camp of the Northern Army, and even command several teams of men and horses to practice offensive and defensive battles, which is countless times happier than reading and reciting scriptures in the Liyang Palace.

Even if the eldest princess personally urged him to return to the city, he was unwilling, let alone the advice of several ministers.

"You're busy, you're busy, I'm going to war." After speaking, Xiao Tianzi took the battle helmet and ran away.

There were only a few ministers left in the big tent. The atmosphere immediately became cold. Xian Yufu slapped his palm on the table and scolded.

In the Northern Xinjiang Army, in addition to the general Li Hong, probably only Xian Yufu dared to reprimand generals of the level of Zhang Yan and Yang Feng angrily.

"Has Zhong Yuan gone to Liyang?" Tian Chou was tired of Xian Yufu's scolding, and when he was panting, he hurriedly handed over a bottle of water.

"Brother Yu Xing, let's dissipate our anger." Yang Feng said with a smile,

"The situation is still under control, the Northern Army is still in the Pungho camp, we have done nothing, this will not affect the reputation of the general, nor will it endanger the safety of Sheji, you can rest assured. After a few days, the situation became clear, and the rumors were self-defeating. Although Xian Yufu scolded very badly, he still knew in his heart that the initiator of all this was the general Li Hong, and he couldn't blame Zhang Yan and others.

The current situation was deliberately created by the general, and Li Hong had told him as early as the beginning of the year, but Li Hong probably didn't expect Zhang Yan to take such a risky way, and the northern army almost rushed into Chang'an City.

"How is Brother Zilie?" Zhang Yan picked up the pu fan and shook it gently to Xian Yufu,

"He agreed, so Lu Bu?"

"It's not Lu Bu's business now, it's Zhong Yuan's business." Xian Yufu looked at Zhao Yun and said,

"Today, Zilong is in front of him, and we picked the matter apart. Lord Cai must not be the prime minister anymore, so, who is the prime minister? ”

"Of course it's the general." Yang Feng said as a matter of course,

"We have been planning for this for several months and have taken a lot of risks, the purpose is to let the general take power and let the people of northern Xinjiang control the government."

"Hmph......" Xian Yufu sneered,

"I want to ask you, since Zhong Yuan deceived He Feng to Liyang, is the situation in Chang'an controlled by you or controlled by Zhong Yuan?"

"It's Zhong Yuan who is controlling the development of the situation." Zhang Yan sighed helplessly,

"Our original idea was to use the Son of Heaven and the Northern Army to coerce the eldest princess, and then use the assassination case of the Son of Heaven to attack the forces of the DPRK and China, sabotage the appeasement, force the eldest princess and the imperial court to revise the Zhongxing strategy, and take the opportunity to support the Son of Heaven, reduce and restrict the authority of the eldest princess, but who knows what a madman appeared in the middle of the way......"

"Once Madman He fights with Lu Bu, we are very passive." Jia Xu also sighed,

"When the eldest princess has no guarantee of her own safety, she is bound to transfer troops from all over the country, and the situation immediately gets out of control. At present, only Li Wei can control the situation, as long as he does not let He Madman go crazy, the situation will not deteriorate. He Madman has been fooled, if he wants to live, he can only make mistakes, continue to be fooled, and obediently listen to Li Wei's arrangement. And Li Wei took the knife of He Madman, coerced the eldest princess and threatened us, firmly containing both sides. ”

"So......" Xian Yufu looked at everyone and said solemnly,

"Zilie and I both think that this prime minister can only let Li Wei do it, otherwise it will ......"

"No...... Yang Feng said angrily,

"No matter how bold Li Zhongyuan is, he doesn't dare to disturb the society."

"As long as Zhong Yuan maintains such a crisis and drags it out until the general returns, the prime minister will still be his." Xian Yufu smiled bitterly,

"But then time is lost. We all know the general's character, and if he returns to Chang'an, it will be very difficult for us to restrain and reduce the authority of the eldest princess. ”

"Li Zhongyuan took advantage of the fire to rob, and grasped the opportunity well." Yang Feng sneered, turned his head to look at Jia Xu and said,

"It seems that you have guessed it right, the focus of Li Zhongyuan's revision of the official system is not to check and balance the imperial power and the relative power, but the so-called system of taking care of life. He wants to kick us aside and take power to ourselves. ”

"Judging from the current situation, this is the only way." Xian Yufu patted a few cases,

"If you all agree, this matter is settled, and we will do our best to help Zhong Yuan take the position of prime minister."

"Brother Yu Xing, you have to think clearly, if Zhong Yuan becomes the prime minister, plus he controls the Zhongshu Supervisor, plus after this official system revision, the general is no longer in charge of the military alone, Zhong Yuan is actually equivalent to getting the greatest authority of the Han Dynasty, and the general will not be able to influence the decision-making of the imperial court in the future, do you know?" Zhang Yan was very dissatisfied with Xian Yufu's irresponsible attitude,

"After the general became prime minister, if he monopolized the military power again, it would be easy to stir up contradictions in the court, so we agreed to Zhong Yuan's plan to revise the official system and agreed to restore the military power to its original state. If you and Zilie suggest that Zhong Yuan be appointed prime minister, then the plan for revising the official system will have to be reformulated, and the general must not give up the slightest military power.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have to think about the consequences, you have to consider the consequences...... Xian Yufu frowned deeply, and said earnestly,

"This matter must be ended as soon as possible, as soon as possible, lest there be long nights and many dreams, which will cause great disaster. In any case, Zhong Yuan is from Northern Xinjiang, and it is better for him to be prime minister than others. Zhang Yan and the others hesitated.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if the general is unwilling to be the prime minister and gives up the position of prime minister to Yang Biao, Xun You or Liu He and other adults, then the matter will be out of control." Rarely in the auxiliary sound urging,

"This matter is settled, don't think about it anymore, let's get over the crisis first." Jump to
