The twilight is dark, which is both the twilight of spring and the twilight of the sun.

And under the dusk, the wind howled through the streets and alleys, mixed with shouts, screams, the sound of armor and weapons rubbing against each other, footsteps, and the sound of doors and windows opening and closing, drawing together the northern half of Yanjing City.

.

It is not that Yanjing has never experienced such turmoil. Similar turmoil occurred about fourteen and twelve years ago.

That time fourteen years ago, Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda personally led his troops to break through Juyong Pass, and then directly led the second prince, Yi Buli, and his general Lou Shi to join Yanjing. After hearing the news, Concubine Xiao De and Yelu Dashi

He hurriedly fled from Gubeikou. In this situation, Liu Yanzong, Zuo Qigong, Yu Zhongwen and other Yanjing aristocrats sent Xiao Defei, Yelu Dashi and others out of the city as gifts, and controlled the city defense overnight. At dawn, Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda arrived

Under the city, all Yanjing Han leaders opened the city gates and calmly asked for surrender.

Fourteen years have passed in a daze.

Looking back now, among the main characters in the Yanjing Revolution, Jin Taizu Aguda died of illness, the second prince Yi Bu died of illness, the famous general Lou Shi died in battle, Xiao Defei was killed by Emperor Tianzuo of Liao Dynasty, and Yelu Dashi left for the west.

During the founding of the country, Yu Zhongwen and Zuo Qigong were killed by Zhang Jue, a general who had repeatedly rebelled against him. Liu Yanzong died in depression because he was involved in the internal fighting between Nianhan and Aguda factions.

It is true that things change and people change.

As for the turmoil twelve years ago, there was no trace of the Yanyun clan, at least not in the center of the stage. This was because long before that, Liu Yanzong and Zuo Qigong had urged Aguda not to hand Yanjing over.

After the handover with Zhao and Song, these two people and the great scholar Yu Zhongwen simply abandoned their families and joined the Jin Dynasty. They would rather temporarily leave Yanjing, where their ancestors had lived for hundreds of years, than become ministers in the south.

In fact, the main initiator of that turmoil was Guo Yaoshi. The commander-in-chief of the Ever-victorious Army, Guo Yaoshi, noticed the weakness and ridiculousness of the Song Dynasty, and also noticed the intention of the main war faction of the Jin Kingdom to invade the south, so he decided to drop the gold and sent Yanshan Prefecture to

He was kidnapped by Lü Yihao, the envoy of Lujian, and was bundled into the army and brought to the Kingdom of Jin. He was not released until the Jingkang Revolution, so that Lv Yihao regarded him as a great shame in his life.

And that time, when Guo Yaoshi led most of the Evervictorious Army to rebel, Liu Yan, the general of the Yanzhou Battalion among the Eighth Battalion of the Evervictorious Army, did not waver at all and insisted on leading his headquarters to stay in the Song Dynasty, hence the name.

pure heart'.

Now Lu Yihao and Liu Yan are making a comeback. Guo Yaoshi was tricked by Nianhan until he lost everything, but he did not die directly. He just lived in seclusion in Jinzhou. His son Guo Anguo was still the guard general of Pingzhou, and he was still on the side. He could be regarded as another old friend.

Continued.

"What happened outside?"

In the palace city southwest of Yanjing, in a side hall, the eighteen-year-old Jin Kingdom leader Wanyan Hela was seriously discussing something with his mentor Han Fang. Relatively speaking, although Qin Hui, the prime minister on the side, was able to sit

Sitting on a chair very close to him, he could not participate in it until Hela suddenly heard a noise outside and couldn't help but ask.

There is no way, I am just a teacher and student who is a child, so what do you Qin Hui mean? What’s more, as soon as you came in, you said that the eldest prince asked Han Shangshu to go with you? Where do you put the face of the king?

"I'll go take a look." Qin Hui didn't hesitate at all. He stood up directly and hurried out with several guards, just like a doorman.

He La and Han Fang each glanced at Qin Huizhi's back, and then continued to talk in a low voice... There was nothing they could do about it. Although the two were teachers and students who had the same affection as father and son, they were not talking about personal issues at this time.

, Han Fang needs to consider the survival of the three major clans, and what he wants to say is all discussed by the three families in the afternoon. As the leader of the country, Hela also needs to consider the 'national foundation'.

"Master Han."

Seeing Qin Hui leaving, He La simply changed his title. "It is impossible to let the emperor's uncle stay in Yanjing to fight in the war. This means that his life will be in vain, and the fourth uncle and the sixth uncle will not be able to do it... According to what I said, my mentor and

Why don't Zuo, Liu, and the whole family of the three families come with us to take a temporary refuge? Didn't King Yun (Liu Yanzong) choose to follow Taizu and leave Yanjing temporarily?"

"It's different." Han Fang also looked tired. "At that time, King Yun and the others knew that they would come back sooner or later, and they only left this city to go to Pingzhou and Dading Mansion, which were all nearby places... Today's situation is not

If you go there and never come back, no one would be willing to take a journey like that to Huining Mansion...Besides, there is a real chance that one day..."

"His Majesty!"

Before Han Fang could finish speaking, Qin Hui, who had just led a few guards out, hurriedly turned back and said something shocking from afar. "Hurry up and hide... A large group of soldiers are entering the palace!"

"Where did the rebels come from?!" Hela was already eighteen years old after all. Hearing this, instead of panicking, he became a little angry. "Is Yanjing already in such a situation?"

"That's right!" Han Fang spoke quickly even though his scalp was numb, but he was obviously panicked. "Zuo Liu and others will never send troops to the palace! Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Qin!"

"Can I still lie about this kind of thing?" Qin Hui had no choice but to show his hands in the side hall. "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, just ask the guards directly... The rebel army has indeed entered the palace city! And they are coming from the east and north.

People are pouring in one after another! They vary in size. The largest group is estimated to have more than a thousand people, and they are on their way to the palace."

Several confidants of the royal guards showed no intention of interrupting, and the noise outside was getting closer and closer, and Hela finally panicked.

And Han Fang also turned pale.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me."

Qin Hui gasped and walked up to He La and said, "Han Shangshu scolded Yu Chen just now. Naturally, he thought that the insurgent army was a new army led by the Yanjing clan. They did have this motive, but forgive me.

Frankly speaking, the outside world is not necessarily leftist, and the Liu family..."

Not to mention He La, Han Fang was slightly startled.

"The danger lies here. Now we don't know which party brought the troops in. It may even be multiple parties coming in at the same time..." Qin Hui spoke sincerely. "I will not say anything today. I have a sharp blade and a murderous intention."

', or some heart-wrenching remarks such as 'a rare thing can be lived in', just say 'a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall'... If it is the latter, if several families fight in the palace, what will happen to your majesty's rich body?

What? You must know that swords have no eyes!"

He La's face turned red, and for a moment he wanted to repel the other party and go out to stop the rebels in person. At the same time, he felt that what the other party said was very reasonable... That day at the Shangshutai, Du Marshal Nianhan, who had been fighting against Taizu since the time of Taizu, died like that.

Under the chaos of hammering, it also left a deep impression on him, the young king.

"His Majesty."

Just when He La was hesitating, Han Fang suddenly grabbed the sleeve of the newly adult king. "Qin Xianggong is right... His Majesty will take shelter deep in the southwest of the palace for the time being, and Rong Chen and others will test it out here.

Second, if the situation stabilizes and the intruders are under control, it will not be too late for His Majesty to come forward again."

When Hela heard the teacher's words, he felt a little reassured, so he nodded, and then grabbed the other person's hand: "In that case, I will go to find the queen first, and my teacher must take care of himself here."

After saying this, when he saw Qin Hui, He Lafu stepped forward and shook Qin Huizhi's hand: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Qin!"

Qin Hui and Han Fang each nodded, and then they ducked to both sides, and together they signaled to the soldiers standing in the palace. Most of the soldiers inside and outside the palace followed, and hurriedly protected Hela from the side door, and went deep into the palace.

And go.

For a time, there were only four or five people left, and they didn't know if they could hold on.

Seeing He La disappear in the dusk, under the candlelight in the palace, Han Fang breathed a sigh of relief, sat down and turned to Qin Hui: "Qin Xianggong, should we take the initiative to greet him, or should we wait here?"

"Wait here, it's bright here." Qin Hui replied with a sigh. "At worst, wait until the rebels arrive and then go up and make a gesture... Han Shangshu, if it is really what you Yan Yuner did, please be sure to protect me."

Han Fang's face, which had just regained its color, turned pale again, but he could only nod randomly.

After all, until now, he really doesn’t know which family the rebels are outside. He just speculates based on common sense that the Liu Zuo family is really the most motivated. Maybe it’s Liu Xiao because his brother Liu E’s death is unknown. On the surface,

He made an agreement with himself to only take the arsenal, but secretly he had the evil intention of kidnapping the king.

Even those other wealthy families in Yanjing who seem to be stable may have sufficient motives... a rare thing to live in.

It can only be said that today's Yanjing is too chaotic, and it has been pushed too hard by the Zhao and Song officials, so that all forces have their own demands, and they restrict and struggle with each other.

In this way, Qin Hui and Han Fang sat together in the side hall. Not long after, a gust of late spring wind swept into the hall, stirring up the candlelight. Under the swaying firelight, the two finally stood up together - because

This gust of wind directly swept the sound of soldiers and armor outside the hall into the hall.

At this moment, the two of them instinctively looked at each other, and both could detect a trace of natural fear and nervousness in each other's eyes.

"Quick, quick, quick! Come into the palace and take a look, escort me!"

A voice that seemed somewhat familiar came next.

"It seems to be Marshal Lazy!"

Qin Hui took a long breath and took the initiative to stop Han Fang. "I have an old relationship with Marshal Talan, so I'll go out first! Han Shangshu can wait."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Qin." Han Fang was also slightly relieved when he heard the lazy voice, but it was obviously not as appropriate as Qin Hui's, so he immediately recognized it. He even seemed to feel a little guilty. "Actually, everything is all my fault today.

Wait, Mr. Qin doesn’t have to be involved..."

"It's too late to say this now." Qin Huizhi shook his head and walked out, as if he meant what he said.

As if echoing Qin Hui's words, footsteps and obvious shouts came outside the hall, but Qin Hui did not hesitate and took the initiative to speed up and walk out of the side hall.

The fire outside the hall was blazing, and there were only seventy or eighty people in the lead. The leader was Ta Lalan, who was fully armed. The few guards in front of the side hall were obviously at a loss. Only when they saw Qin Hui coming out did they seem to have found the backbone.

"Xianggong Qin!"

When he saw the person coming out, Talan immediately greeted him as if he had found a backbone.

"marshal!"

Qin Hui also shouted loudly, and then immediately stepped forward, clasping his two big hands tightly together, and then he was completely relieved... Don't mention it, they were really just grasshoppers on a rope at this time. "Why are you here?

In the palace? Where did it come from? Is anyone else coming?"

Tarlan understood, and directly dragged the other person to the shadow outside the palace, and said in a low voice: "I only have two hundred people, and there are only more than two hundred people with silver skills. But according to the message from your house, I took advantage of the chaos and quickly left the north gate of the palace city.

, came in separately from the east gate, found the old department and opened the door before making a big fuss... It turned out that Yin Shu was still playing tricks up to this point. When I came in, he only made noise outside, and kept harassing the soldiers and horses of Shi Lie's department again.

When he moved, he called his old subordinates to open the door and follow them in... Now it's my people who come in first. Yin Shuke and your brother-in-law will be there soon. He Shilie's army has the largest number of soldiers and horses, more than a thousand people. Hong Chengzhi

I should be with him, Shang is behind... and he is about to enter the palace."

"Then we have to hurry up." Qin Huizhi held the opponent's hand and tried to lower his voice. "The king has gone to hide deep in the palace. He should be at the queen's place. It's easy to find... The man in the palace is Han Fang.

This is a good opportunity... Kill this person quickly and tell the king that it was the eldest prince who did it... As for the king, He Shilietaiyu probably needs to be found in his hands to make the eldest prince truly take advantage of him.

"

"clear!"
