At this time, the Xuanwu Gate gathered three thousand Chang'an soldiers, and the North Ya was crowded to the full, the Xuanwu Gate was different from other city gates, defending important places, and the outer city gate and the inner palace gate could accommodate more than a thousand elite soldiers, but even if the place was large and could accommodate three thousand soldiers, it was still too small.

The leaders of these Chang'an soldiers are all Lang generals, there are more than a dozen, all of them belong to the eldest princess's family, although the eldest princess is powerful, she may be a military general, and can listen to her orders at a critical moment, it can only be Lang Jiang's level, other general-level generals, verbally support her can, if the army is really mobilized, in the Manchu Dynasty, a general is unwilling to get on her ship, and she did not pull an important person into the water.

A large group of people rushed outside the city, those Lang generals all saw it really, they were all panicked, in the original plan, there was no army outside the city to enter the city, who is this army, no matter who it is, it must not be the eldest princess's, it may be the king of Xiang, or the king of Linzi, anyway, these two princes are father and son, no matter whose soldiers and horses are the same.

A general said: "Everyone, everyone, whose soldiers and horses belong to?" I thought, it shouldn't be the second prince, right? ”

The Lang generals were silent for a while, and did not answer, everyone was still thinking about whose soldiers and horses it was, in fact, there was nothing to think about, Changgong mainly had such a cavalry, it must be told in advance, and although the king of Xiang and the king of Linzi were not a faction with them, they were not in the same faction, but there was such a big movement, and they had to be notified in advance, after all, the more than a thousand cavalry, but such a powerful force, if it was not to attack the city gate, then whether it was in the field or into the city to fight, They can all sweep away these Chang'an generals.

After a long time, another general said: "Those few Praetorian Guards outside the city." Didn't they all refuse Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, how could they still send people into the city, and they could still open the city gates, this, what's going on? ”

One of them, a slightly older general, said: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, as long as we guard the Xuanwu Gate well, don't worry about the rest, then let's just guard it well, and it's better to take care of other things." ”

"Wouldn't it be bad if this cavalry wasn't ours. Now they have entered the city, if they attack from the top of the city wall, we will not be able to defend the Xuanwu Gate, those people are all cavalry, the city wall is so wide, but they can run away from the horse! A Lang general immediately questioned.

The faces of other Lang generals are ugly, the city wall of Chang'an can be said to be unique in the world, the city wall is high and thick, and it doesn't matter if it is high now. Everyone has entered the city, what is the use of being tall or not, but Kuan is now fatal, if those cavalry who entered the city are sent to the head. With such a wide wall, the cavalry could definitely rush through, and twelve horses ran side by side!

The old Lang General said: "Send someone to inform Her Royal Highness the eldest princess immediately, and there is." Send a few people over and ask...... Well, whose team are the cavalry that entered the city? ”

The generals took immediate action. Soldiers were dispatched, but they did not dare to act without authorization, so they could only wait for the eldest princess's order, for fear of interfering with the eldest princess's original plan.

Yang Ze looked at the Xuanwu Gate in the distance and thought: "Even if they are fools over there, they know that the cavalry entering the city will not be their people, but the military attaches in Chang'an City are too bureaucratic and do not react fast enough, they still have to ask for instructions on what to do, it will be a waste of time, but they will still come over after all, at least as soon as it is dawn, they will definitely come!" ”

Yang Ze called Gao Niuli and said: "Ask a team of people to lead the horses to the city, and then run around the city on horses, making some noise, if someone from the Xuanwu Gate comes, then rush up and hack to death, you are welcome, and you must not show mercy!" ”

Gao Niu hurriedly said: "My subordinates understand, so I will send someone to do this." ”

He immediately called a team of Bohai warriors and led their horses to the city wall, and then these Bohai warriors rode on their horses and ran around in the direction of Xuanwu Gate, deliberately making movements, although there was only a team of men and horses, but they made such a fuss, the Chang'an soldiers in the direction of the entire Xuanwu Gate did not dare to move, which was equivalent to involving the main force of the Chang'an soldiers.

Yang Ze lowered his head and asked Caicai: "Where did you talk about just now, you take care of the emperor in the palace?" ”

Caicai said: "No, you didn't listen to me well just now, I have been taking care of the imperial grandmother in the palace, what is there to say." I mean, my father returned to Chang'an, and he brought back hundreds of Zhenxi soldiers, but before he could enter the capital, he was ordered by the imperial grandmother not to let him lead troops into the city, and only allowed him and my mother to enter the city by themselves. ”

Yang Ze said: "When the emperor makes an order, why don't you persuade it...... Well, it's not easy for you to persuade you to bring troops into the city, but this shouldn't be the emperor's intention, it's ...... Let me guess, it should be Wu Youren's meaning, that is, the meaning of the second prince! ”

The eldest princess and the king of Linzi don't care that Li Yan led the troops into the city, there are only a few hundred soldiers in the west of the town, and they can't live in the palace, they can only find a place outside the palace. But Wu Youren is different, he has no soldiers in his hands, and the second prince has no soldiers, if Li Yan brings soldiers into the city, it will be impossible to suppress the eldest princess and King Xiang, but it will be enough to overwhelm him.

"Guess accurately!" Caicai smiled: "That's what Wu Youren meant, he slandered in front of the imperial grandmother, saying how my father is doing, I really hold my breath when I hear it, but the imperial grandmother just listened to him, so I only let my father and mother enter the city, but that Wu Youren didn't expect that because only my father and mother entered the city, so as soon as something happened tonight, they hid, and no one could find them, but they were safe." ”

Yang Ze said: "Something happened tonight, it should be that the emperor is seriously ill, and he wants to write an edict to pass on the throne, but people in all aspects can't bear it." Well, let me guess, this edict was either not written, or it was written and burned, anyway, there must be no real edict in the palace now! ”

Caicai's face turned gloomy at first, after all, he had been in front of Empress Dugu for a long time, the two ancestors and grandsons had already had a relationship, Empress Dugu was critically ill, it was false to say that she was not sad, if someone didn't want to kill her, Caicai would definitely not leave Empress Dugu's side.

Caicai nodded and said: "I haven't written the edict yet, it's chaotic outside, Wu Youren was originally recruited into the palace, but I don't know where to go, the eldest princess's aunt and my second uncle seem to be fighting, but it is estimated that the eldest princess's aunt beat the second uncle, I have seen the second uncle, he looks like a fairy wind and bones, but he will fool people with his appearance." ”

She told her about this time and what happened tonight, most of which Yang Ze could predict.

After the second prince returned to the capital, Tong guò Wu Youren presented the so-called elixir to the Dugu Empress, after the Dugu Empress used it, she felt quite good, which could make her energetic, she knew that her life would not be long, and she would take the elixir, if it was placed in the past, the second prince's behavior would have to be heavily responsible, even if it was her own son, she would not be soft as a mother.

And the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong, the king of Linzi, both knew what the elixir was, but none of them said that King Xiang was a filial son, he wanted to persuade, but was dissuaded by the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong, and he was not allowed to tell Empress Dugu that the elixir was not good, the reason was very simple, with the wisdom and wisdom of Empress Dugu, could she still not see that the elixir was poisonous, so she didn't let King Xiang have many things.

King Xiang understands in his heart, the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong want to wait for the toxicity of the elixir to happen, and then use this as a crime to kill the second prince and Wu Youren together, and the second prince of some forces has been killed, and the eldest prince has no power, so there is a chance that this throne will fall on him, he himself does not want to be the emperor, otherwise he would not have given up the throne to the Dugu empress, but his son wants to be ah, he is not the emperor, how can Li Zhenglong be the prince? So he had no choice but to keep silent and let Empress Dugu take the elixir.

The second prince now believes that he has become an immortal, which is a magic barrier, and no one will listen to what he says, but Wu Youren is a smart person, how can he not know the truth about the harm of the elixir, and he firmly believes that the Dugu Empress herself also knows, but before people are about to die, they often do some unbelievable things, and want to use every means to prolong their life, this is one of them, so he will offer the elixir.

Wu Youren can also guess what the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong, the king of Linzi, are thinking, they must be thinking of using the elixir as an excuse to liquidate themselves after the death of Empress Dugu, but he is not afraid, because he has obtained the privilege of entering the palace to play the right game, and it is more convenient to enter the palace to see Empress Dugu than the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong, the king of Linzi, which will make him know the situation of Empress Dugu earlier than the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong.

In this way, as long as Empress Dugu is not good, then he has a great chance to draw up the edict, he can use his hands and feet when formulating the edict, let Empress Dugu establish the second prince as the emperor, as long as the second prince can become the emperor, then what kind of elixir is not the elixir, no one will pursue it anymore, with the edict in hand, what else can the eldest princess and Li Zhenglong do, they can only accept their fate.

Of course, there are risks involved, but what is there that is not dangerous? There is no good thing in this world that you can enjoy huge benefits without taking risks, so Wu Youren is willing to take this risk.

However, Wu Youren is a literati after all, this is the difference between him and Yang Ze, Yang Ze is also taking risks, when he was in Bohai, he would rather delay time, and risk that when he returned to Beijing, Empress Dugu would have died, and formed a team of dead soldiers that completely belonged to him.

But Wu Youren didn't do this, he was a complete literati thinker, thinking that as long as he had an edict in hand, he could solve the problem, he didn't think too completely about the risk that the enemy would use violence and launch a palace coup, he thought that the era of palace coups had passed!

However, it has been proved that Wu Youren's literati thinking is completely wrong, and such things as palace coups and seizures of power by force will never be outdated, and they will happen completely around him. (To be continued......)
