Snowflakes like willow catkins fell from the night sky, scattering in every corner of Chang'an City. The curfew has begun, and there are no other figures on the streets except for soldiers wearing hard-wired and stalked.

Every family closed their doors, and the whole family hid in their own homes and did not dare to speak loudly. The government had already begun to search for Zhou Jun in the city for careful work, and everyone was afraid that they would be implicated for no reason.

When the Zhou army broke through Lantian Pass, the news came and Chang'an was shocked. The prince led his troops to Lantian to deploy defense early this morning. The atmosphere in the city was tense and there were all kinds of rumors.

Some say that the Zhou army who broke the Lantian Pass had more than 100,000 troops, and after taking Lantian, they rushed straight to Chang'an; some say that the Zhou army in the east had crossed the Yellow River from Puban, and was not far from Chang'an.

Some people also said that the Zhou army who broke the Lantian Pass were all white armored and robed, carrying the filial piety of the late emperor; some people also said that the Zhou army had already spoken out to baptize Chang'an and avenge the Zhou royal family who died six years ago.

Although the government tried its best to suppress and captured many people who spread rumors, no matter the high and low, people were panicked. In any case, it was a fact that the Zhou army approached Chang'an. Once they broke through Lantian, they could go straight outside Chang'an.

The world has not been peaceful in recent years, but for the residents of Chang'an, the war is far away from them. Apart from the unlucky people who were recruited to fight with the army, the war is just a topic of discussion. Now that the enemy is approaching the war, there is no way to talk and laugh.

In the Duke of Pei, Zheng Yi, the Duke of Pei, was in a daze in his study. He was still full of spring breeze yesterday, but now he is in great panic. The last time he felt this feeling was six years ago.

That year, Emperor Tianyuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty died suddenly. As Yuwen Yun's favorite minister, Zheng Yi faced the danger of being liquidated. Thanks to his relative Yang Jian, he was responsible and never stopped killing people and firmly grasped the power.

When the new dynasty was established, Zheng Yi was treated very well as a hero in the dragon. He thought that life would last, but the Zhou army rushed out of Wuguandao!

He was not a fool, and he could see that something was strange. Even if the Zhou army was at the city of Chang'an, it was just a lonely army. Not to mention whether the Chang'an garrison was dispatched, he could not defend it. It only took one or two days before the surrounding officials could tear the other party.

Could it be that the Zhou army was dreaming in the daytime that Chang'an would open the door to surrender after the troops arrived at the city? It is impossible, the other party would not be so stupid, so there must be an insider.

Who is the inner person? Zheng Yi doesn't know, anyway, he is not. Although he secretly colluded with Yuwen Wen, Duke of Zhu from Shannan, Zhou Guo, they were just doing serious and profitable business. Now this Zhou army was not attracted by him.

So what, the key is what that person will think!

Zheng Yi didn't know if the emperor knew that he and Shannan had been secretly engaging in news, but the queen must have known that if it were the past, this was his amulet, because the queen wanted to communicate with her daughter who was far away in Shannan, but now this is his death talisman.

Queen Dugu Jialuo is an ordinary woman, and she is very careful in her big troubles. She knows that Zheng Yi has a connection with Shannan and can turn a blind eye on her every day. But now that the Zhou army is about to be at the city, she must eliminate the traitors and prevent problems before they happen. Zheng Yi is the first to be affected.

Zheng Yi grew up in the Great Zhou court and received great favors from the Yuwen family. However, he betrayed Yuwen family without hesitation at the critical moment. To put it nicely, it was a hero who was a dragon, but at this time, this matter became a stain.

Dugu Jialuo acted decisively and faced the danger of Zhou's attack on the city. He would definitely tell the story of Zheng Yi and Shannan. Yang Jian was suspicious and would not let him go. Once he was determined to be a suspicion of being an insider, he would be placed under house arrest at the worst, and at the worst...

Yang Jian and his wife were both decisive and decisive. Thinking of this, Zheng Yi was trembling all over, and he had no collusion with the Zhou army to attack Chang'an, but who would believe it when he said it at this time?

He regretted it very much. It would be great if he hadn't been in Chang'an these few days. Whether it was the Zhou army's successful attack on Chang'an or the entire army was wiped out, it had nothing to do with him. As a result, he was in a whirlpool now and his destiny was no longer something he could control.

If Yang Jian was in another place at this time, he would not be able to find his head. If the Zhou army captured Chang'an and Zhou destroyed Sui, he could disperse all his family's wealth and ask the Duke of Zhu Yuwen Wen to help him speak and save his whole family's life, but now...

"If an old friend comes to Chang'an in the future when the war is in chaos, please take care of Pei Gong."

Zheng Yi suddenly remembered the content of Yuwen Wen's letter. These words seemed to allow Zheng Yi to fully understand the friendship of the landlords and take care of the old friends who came to Chang'an. This book was nothing. After all, the Zhou and Sui countries often fought wars, which was considered "disarray". Zheng Yi also responded to the people sent by Yuwen Wen to Chang'an to "purchase".

But isn’t this an unnecessary move? This letter was sent only at the end of summer this year. Zheng Yi has taken care of the visitor many times before. Yuwen Wen is just a superfluous addition.

Now that I think about it carefully, Zheng Yi couldn't help but stand up. Zhou Jun came so quickly, and he must have planned for a long time. Yuwen Wen must have known something, so he asked him to "take care of it".

Take care of him! If he really wants him to be an insider, Yuwen Wen should have tried it out long ago. This is obviously asking him to ask for the "old friend" who arrived in Chang'an to provide care!

The war is in chaos? It has been a long time since the war is in chaos. This is what it means to attack the Zhou army to Chang'an! The so-called old friend is talking about the commander of the Zhou army!

Zheng Yi was like a drowning man grabbing a straw, as if he saw a glimmer of hope to save his life, but he calmed down and was still panicked: That would have to be the Zhou army entering Chang'an!

Now Yang Jian may be going to kill my whole family!

"Father!"

The shouting scared Zheng Yi to the point of trembling. The eldest son Zheng Yuanhu ran in panic. Zheng Yi didn't care about the attack and asked what was wrong.

"Some soldiers rushed over along the street!"

"ah!"

Hearing this news, Zheng Yi felt dizzy and almost collapsed to the ground. Unexpectedly, his son was a slaughter who only said half of the words. "These soldiers went elsewhere, and it seemed that there was a sound of fighting from the Duke of Shuguo's mansion."

"You... mean Shu Guogong Mansion?"

Zheng Yi was so scared that he almost turned his back. He heard that the soldiers were not coming for him. He breathed a sigh of relief at first, but when he learned that something happened to Duke Shu, he couldn't help but feel sad.

Duke Liu Fang of Shu Guo was like him, the favorite minister of Emperor Tianyuan Yuwen Yun. It was the two of them who joined forces to give Yang Jian the opportunity to get the power of regent as soon as possible.

It is the same thing that they have friendship with Yang Jian. The most important thing is that "single goods are easy to live in". To put it bluntly, it is a big bet, putting all the bets on Yang Jian, because once others come to power, the two of them will definitely not have a good ending.

After Yang Jian assisted in the administration, Liu Fang's title was Duke Huang, and he was called "Huang and Pei" together with Duke Pei Zheng Yi. He was a famous person around Prime Minister Yang Jian. Not to mention rewards, he could bring his own guards when he went in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The two of them were greedy for money and profit, and gradually became alienated by Yang Jian. Zheng Yi tried his best to save them. Mao then recommended himself to be the chief marshal of the Zhengnan marshal and the army to attack Yuwen Liang in Anzhou. As a result, after the defeat in Lianghekou, he accidentally took the lead on Yuwen Wen and turned around by chance.

Liu Fang was not so lucky. He was first renamed Duke Shu and then was dismissed from his post and unemployed at home. The old friend was full of complaints, but he could detect it from a distance.

Then you become an internal agent of the Zhou army. Now that you are surrounded by people?

Liu Fang was finished, Zheng Yi was even more frightened when he died of a rabbit and fox was sad. Yang Jian could attack the "Huang" who had made great contributions, so he would not hesitate to eliminate him, as a "Pei".

However, Liu Fang is an internal supporter of the Zhou army, but I am not. You can’t betrayal than to indulge!

Zheng Yi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and he felt an invisible and deadly noose on his neck. Now he was slowly tightening, and he could take his life at any time.
