East Palace, Prince's Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The crown prince's character Cui Youfu rushed to wake up Li Shi, and sent people to call other princelings' henchmen and ministers over, and after everyone arrived, Li Shi yawned and asked: "Cui Youfu, do you know that disturbing people's dreams is a big crime?" ”

Cui Youfu arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, something has happened!" This morning, the regent sent someone to call the deputy envoy of the Fengxiang Army, Sha Zhali, and asked him to go to the palace in the afternoon, but Sha Zhali was so drunk that he forgot about it, and at night the regent was furious, and sent Xuan Jiu, the head of the military justice department of the palace, to bring people over, and arrested him on three charges of robbing people's women, arson and looting, and violating military discipline, but he refused to be arrested, but instead ordered Xuan Jiu and others to be arrested, and at this time, it happened that the general of the palace guard army Ma Sui arrived with his troops and surrounded the Fengxiang army camp, and the two sides are currently facing each other, and the sword is tense. It is very likely that there will be a fight, and if it does, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

A few words made Li Shi and the members of the princeling party sleepy one by one, and Yang Juan said loudly: "Wait, you just said that the escort army arrived in Xuan Jiu and the others just after being arrested?" How many people did the convoy go? ”

"All dispatched, a full 5,000 iron horsemen!"

This made Li Shi feel a chill instantly surging up from the soles of his feet to the Tianling Gai, and his whole body began to feel cold.

Chang Gon was a little worried when he heard this: "Could it be that the regent is already ready to do something to us?" Sha Chali is a native of Tibet, he was valued and promoted to a tooth general by Ge Shuhan, and he made many military exploits, and later rebelled when the servant Huai'en was still alive, and then he joined the imperial court, and he was accepted by Guo Ziyi, and he was Guo Ziyi's person. Has the Lord Regent decided to start using our forces to eliminate him? ”

Li Shi was still relatively calm, he waved his hand and said, "Don't guess, maybe it's just a coincidence!" The palace has long heard that the barbarian general Shazhali has always been cross-fertile, relying on the favor of his father and the emperor often do some illegal things, the regent wants to gather the heart of the army, establish prestige, and must take some disobedient generals in the army to open the knife, but why is this Shazhali such a bastard, the regent asked him to go, he went, and drank and drunk, forgot about it, didn't he deserve it? ”

Yang Juan reminded: "Your Highness, now it's not a question of whether Sha Zhali deserves it, but a question of how this matter will end, does Your Highness know how many people there are in the Fengxiang Army?" Except for the 3,000 people who stayed in Fengxiang Mansion, the other more than 12,000 people were all in the military camp outside the city, including more than 2,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry! Xia Guan now doubts that the five thousand cavalry of the Regent Palace's Mansion can deter the Fengxiang Army, if the two sides fight, once the Regent Palace's escort army is defeated, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Li Shi suddenly snorted, and immediately asked, "What about Li Baoyu, the envoy of the Fengxiang Army?" Could he have been involved in this? ”

Cui Youfu said: "It is said that Li Baoyu is not in the army, and I don't know where he went. Now all the Fengxiang troops in the barracks are controlled by Sha Chali, and the specific news is still unknown, after the guards surround the barracks, no further news can be received! ”

Li Shi was furious: "Li Baoyu, the envoy of this festival, is not in charge of the army in the barracks, what is he doing when he runs out of the barracks?" If there is really something that can't end up fighting a big deal this time, he Li Baoyu will be to blame! ”

Chang Gon hurriedly persuaded: "Your Highness is angry, it is useless to be angry now, I am afraid that I will not be able to find Li Baoyu for the time being." Xia Guan believes that on the one hand, we must believe that the regent can calm down this matter, and on the other hand, we must also be prepared to prevent the defeat of the escort army, and we must immediately notify our generals in the army to control the officers and men of the army, otherwise the mutiny will spread to other military camps, and at the same time prevent the Fengxiang army from being coerced by Sha Chali to cause trouble to Chang'an and the surrounding areas, once Sha Chali rebels, we must be able to extinguish it in time! ”

Li Shi felt a lot more settled when he heard Chang Gon's words, and immediately said to Cui Youfu; "Chang Gon is right, handle it immediately!"

Cui Youfu was puzzled: "Your Highness, we can't directly command those generals in the army, only Guo Ziyi can command them, and Guo Ziyi is now going to Dengzhou······"

Li Shi's brain meridian was running rapidly, and he quickly thought of Guo Ziyi's son Guo Xuan, and immediately said: "By the way, go to Guo Mansion to find Guo Xuan, relay the words of the palace to him, and let him come forward to greet the lieutenant generals and colonels no matter what." ”

"Yes!"

In this matter, in addition to the prime minister's faction and the princelings getting a son-in-law, the eunuch party also quickly got the news, although now the palace guards have been taken over by Zuo Jin Wuwei, but Ju Wenzhen still got the news as soon as possible, and his first reaction was to let Zhao Ziliang step down and get out of power through this matter.

Zhao Ziliang first took away the power of the Shence Army from Ju Wenzhen, and then transferred the Zhenguo Army to Xiangyang to quell the rebellion, which deprived the only two soldiers and horses in the hands of the eunuchs, how could Ju Wenzhen not hate him? Now that there is a chance for Zhao Ziliang to get out of here, he will never let go of this opportunity.

Ju Wenzhen hurriedly came to the door of Daizong's dormitory and said to the eunuch guarding the door: "Go and wake up Your Majesty, just say that the old slave has an urgent matter to report to Your Majesty, go quickly!" ”

Ju Wenzhen's strength has greatly decreased now, and she is not as favored in front of the emperor as before, so the little eunuch guarding the door is a little reluctant, "Father-in-law Ju, look at what time it is now, now go and wake up Your Majesty, don't you make it clear that the little one will be punished by His Majesty?" ”

Ju Wenzhen was furious: "What? The miscellaneous family still instructed you not to move? If you don't report it, if the matter reaches the point of no return, His Majesty will not just punish you, but will ask for your head, you know? ”

The little eunuch saw that Ju Wenzhen said so seriously, he was a little scared in his heart and retreated, "Okay, father-in-law, wait a minute, the little one will go and wake up Your Majesty!" ”

Daizong's temper is still good, he didn't get angry when he was woken up in the middle of the night, he heard that Ju Wenzhen had something extremely important to report, so he got dressed and walked out of the dormitory and asked, "Ju Wenzhen, why do you want to report it so late?" ”

Ju Wenzhen bowed down and saluted: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good." The regent ordered to send someone to the barracks to arrest him for trial, and Sha Chali learned that he was going to the regent palace for no reason, and he was furious on the spot, but ordered the soldiers to arrest the people who went to arrest him, and the regent was furious when he heard about it, and ordered the royal guards to go to arrest him. The regent wanted to arrest him on these inexplicable charges, he was not convinced, he led his troops to confront the royal guards, and now the two sides are tense and on the verge of breaking out, if it is not handled well, I am afraid that it will be another rebellion! ”

When Daizong heard the word rebellion, his face changed on the spot, he was once bitten by a snake, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. Tremblingly, he said, "What······ How so? This Shazhali is not safe for him, why should he rebel? ”

Ju Wenzhen arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Sha Chali was forced, if the regent didn't send someone to arrest him, how could he lead troops to fight against the palace guards?" The army plundered and violated military discipline and the generals were not the only one, but the regent only arrested him, the old slave heard that this was because the concubine of Han Hong, the new champion, was taken away by Sha Zhali, Han Hong was just a small official back then, what was it for Sha Zhali to kidnap his concubine? The regent did this to bribe Han Hong and the new scholars! He's cultivating cronies! Your Majesty, this matter must be quelled as soon as possible, otherwise, the rebellion will be difficult to pacify, and if it is under the city of Chang'an, it will be difficult for the rebels to take advantage of the chaos to attack the city, then it will be a big deal! ”

Daizong was shocked: "No······ No way? The regent is a famous general of the dynasty and has outstanding military achievements······"

Ju Wenzhen persuaded bitterly: "Your Majesty, the regent is a human being, not a god, and if a rebellion occurs suddenly, no one can deal with it in time, what if the guards are defeated?" This kind of thing can't be left to chance, otherwise you will regret it! ”

"That'······ So what do you think should be? Dai Zong asked in a panic.

Ju Wenzhen was overjoyed and immediately suggested: "Please give an order to your majesty to immediately send someone to the Fengxiang army camp to pardon all the crimes of Sha Zhali, give him a knighthood, and order the regent to withdraw the escort army, so that the disaster will disappear." Afterwards, Zhao Ziliang was removed from the post of regent, so that the hearts of the soldiers could be appeased! ”

Daizong was already six gods and no master at this time, and agreed in a panic: "Okay, okay, what you say you should do, come here, and ······ the will."

Zhao Ziliang took Gao Shang, Li Mi and Xuan 18 and more than 100 palace guards and cavalry out of Chang'an City, rushed to the Fengxiang army camp at the fastest speed, and soon arrived at the periphery.

"The commander of the Weichen Guards, Ma Sui, greets the king!"

Zhao Ziliang stopped, raised his hand and said, "No courtesy!" What's going on? Is there still a standoff? ”

Ma Sui hugged his fists and said: "Back to the king, Sha Chali sent Tian Jiye, the judge of the Fengxiang army, to negotiate with the camp, saying that General Xuanjiu and more than 100 soldiers are in his hands, if you want them to live, our army must retreat ten miles first!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "So Xuan Jiu and they are still alive, this king is relieved, but we have to take care of their safety, so we are tied hands and feet again!" Let's go, let's go to the front and see the actual situation! ”

"Yes!"

With the arrival of Zhao Ziliang, the guards surrounding the Fengxiang Army made way for a passage, and Zhao Ziliang stopped near the wooden fence of the military camp to observe the garrison in the military camp.

Soon, Zhao Ziliang instructed Xuan Eighteen: "Where is Zhang Ben, the commander of the Huya Army?" Is it here or in its barracks? ”

Next to him, Ma Sui said: "General Zhang has already met with Weichen, and he has already commanded his subordinates to sneak into the opposite barracks!" It should be nearby right now! ”

"Send someone to get him!"

"Yes!"
