Chapter 44: There is always Xiao Xiao who wants to harm His Majesty
Originally, Huangfu Li and others saw Zhu Qi who was arranged in the palace being killed, and thought that there was only one way to attack. Who knew that before they ordered the attack, the palace gate of the palace was opened by itself. This made Huangfu Li and others slightly stunned, and they were a little confused. So, wasn’t Zhu Qi killed? At this time, who opened the palace gate?
However, at this time, after the bait thrown out successfully attracted the Chang'an garrison, Huangfu Li, Wu Feng, Liu He and others obviously had a strong sense of confidence. Seeing that the palace gate opened, even though Huangfu Li felt something was strange, Liu He and Wu Feng rushed to the palace without hesitation. In their opinion, everything was empty. Now that Ye Zhao is not in Chang'an, as long as Liu Bian is rescued from Ye Zhao's confidants, it is impossible for all the troops in these four states to be Ye Zhao's direct subordinates. At that time, take the banner of clearing the emperor and kill all the Ye Zhao's followers in Chang'an, and then half of the country will belong to them.
Facts have proved that there was no reason why Liu Yu would rather pass the foundation to Liu Bei than Liu He, his own son. The three thousand troops that these people had finally accumulated over the years were also standard equipment in Ye Zhao's army, and they rushed into the palace gate in one go.
"Boom~"
To Huangfu Li's expectations, the imperial guards guarding the city did not stop them, but allowed them to rush into the palace. But this was why Huangfu Li was frightened and felt that the action tonight seemed to be much smoother. Behind him, the palace gate closed with a rumbling sound, as if the mouth of an ancient ferocious beast was closed.
In the huge palace, there was no sound. Not to mention the guards, even the palace maids and eunuchs were seen. Not only Huangfu Li, but also Liu He, Wu Feng and others also noticed something was wrong. Seeing that the Weiyang Palace in front of him, several people came to Huangfu Li and said with some concern: "Zisheng, it seems something is wrong!"
Of course not, what have you done long ago?
Huangfu Li didn't know what to say. He had intended to stop him before, but these people directly led their troops into the palace. He was too late to even dissuade him and rushed into the palace by a group of soldiers. At this moment, he realized something was wrong, and it was probably too late.
"At this point, there is no choice. Yang Lu is by Your Majesty. We just need to meet with Your Majesty as soon as possible. As long as you keep Your Majesty, there is still a glimmer of life." Huangfu Li said in a deep voice.
Yang Lu is their other inner responder in the palace, a close minister around Liu Bian. The information in the palace was obtained from Yang Lu. This time, everyone conspired to take Liu Bian out of Chang'an, and it was Yang Lu as the inner responder.
When everyone heard this, they nodded one after another. At this point, they had no way out.
In front of us was Weiyang Palace. Huangfu Li and everyone rushed to the hall quickly. According to the plan, Liu Bian was now in Weiyang Palace.
But before they could enter the hall, they saw the gate of Weiyang Palace open, and teams of soldiers with distinctive armor surged out of the hall. At the same time, torches lit up from the palace groups on both sides. In the dark night, they surrounded the surroundings like fire dragons, surrounding the team of less than 3,000 people.
These soldiers did not attack immediately. The soldiers in front of Weiyang Palace quickly separated and made a path. They strided out of it and walked out of a group of people. The leader was Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng is now eight feet tall and has a very smooth figure, giving people a feeling that he may burst at any time. In addition to his immature appearance, he gives people the feeling that he is like a copy of Ye Zhao.
Under the uncertain firelight, Ye Zheng looked at Huangfu Li and others with an inexplicable smile on his face, and said with a regretful smile: "Brother Zisheng, actually, I don't want to see you tonight."
Huangfu Li's courtesy name was Zisheng, and he was Huangfu Song's follower. Ye Zhao and the Huangfu family were not considered enemies. Although Ye Zheng and Huangfu Song had conflicts during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the two of them became ministers in the same palace later, and the previous grudges were written off. Ye Zhao even came to the door to apologize. Huangfu Song also forgave for showing his generosity, and was also passed on to the throne for a while.
Of course, with the Huangfu family's family background, it is impossible to have too deep friendship with Ye Zhao at the beginning. Later, Luoyang was in chaos and the two sides had no friendship. Later, Ye Zhao entered Shu and left Shu again. After nearly ten years, when Ye Zhao left Shu, Huangfu Song was already angry to death. After Ye Zhao took down Guanzhong, he completely suppressed the already weak family class that had been weakened by Li Ru and Guo Si at that time and took back the fields. At that time, many scholars rose up to resist. Unfortunately, Ye Zhao had already had a stable rear at that time.
The scholars once wanted to suppress Ye Zhao by refusing to rent farm tools, just like the new policy of suppressing Wang Mang, but in the end it was just right for Ye Zhao to have a steady stream of new farm tools. The oxen were transported out of Shu and rented to the people through the government. The actions of the aristocratic family not only failed to suppress Ye Zhao like suppressing Wang Mang, but also made Ye Zhao completely win over the hearts of the people in Guanzhong.
At that time, Huangfu Song was dead, and the chess piece Huangfu Jianshou took over the Huangfu family. At that time, the Huangfu family was the first family to cater to Ye Zhao's new policy, and took the initiative to offer land and most of its wealth in exchange for peace of the Huangfu family.
Ye Zhao was also very satisfied with this. Although he knew that Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li's actions meant to cut off their arm and did not sincerely surrender, in order to give the scholars in the world a role model, he once gave a lot of rewards. Among the aristocratic families in Guanlong, the Huangfu family is a relatively complete family and a relatively appealing family.
Ye Zhao was not as relieved as he seemed to be. At least 30% of the secret guards in Chang'an City were staring at the Huangfu family, and even the servants of the Huangfu family were under the surveillance of the secret guards. Therefore, Huangfu Liyi took action and Ye Zheng could get news quickly.
Huangfu Li not only served as the Left General, but also became famous in Chang'an Academy. Ye Zheng had heard several lessons from Huangfu Li, and he still admired Huangfu Li himself.
"The Han and the thieves are not in harmony. Your Ye family brings the emperor to order the princes, and the righteous people in the world will be punished!" Huangfu Lisen said.
"Forget it." Ye Zheng shook his head and sighed: "You and I don't have to say whether you or not, let it be for future generations to comment. Zheng only knows that you lost!"
When Huangfu Li heard this, he looked around, then looked at Ye Zheng, gritted his teeth and said, "The winner is not decided, so how can you talk about winning or losing? Men, let me kill you!"
But what surprised Huangfu Song, Liu He and others was that no one except a few people responded to him.
"You..." Huangfu Li turned around, looked at the soldiers who were hesitant or afraid of the forward, and was furious in his heart. He killed a fearful general with a backhand sword, and said sternly: "If you are afraid of fighting and not fighting, you will be killed without mercy!"
"It's not like this!" Ye Zheng shook his head and smiled: "Brother Zisheng, how good it is to be knowledgeable. If you lead troops to fight, you are far inferior to your father and brother!"
Huangfu Li suddenly turned around and looked at Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng ignored him, raised his head and said loudly: "I don't know why you and others rebel against the Prime Minister with these people. Your food is given by the Prime Minister. Looking at the 400-year history of the Han Dynasty, which army will have military pay? Not to mention, the weapons you use and the armor you wear are all made by the Prime Minister for your chances of survival on the battlefield at any cost. The old saying goes, "A drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Is this how you repay the Prime Minister's kindness?"
"All the kings under the world are kings, and all the kings and ministers are kings. Now we have been ordered by the emperor to clear the emperor to attack the unjust ministers. What's wrong with that?" Huangfu Li was shocked when he saw the soldiers around him showing shame on his face and quickly said loudly.
"Son of the Emperor?" Ye Zheng sneered: "Then please come out."
As he said that, he bent toward Weiyang Palace and bowed, "Please, Emperor!"
"Ye Zheng, what do you want to do!?" Huangfu Li was furious when she heard this and said sternly.
Ye Zheng did not answer, and soon, under the "guards" of Wang Shuang and Cao Xing, Liu Bian came to the three armies tremblingly.
"Zheng'er, I..." Liu Bian saw Ye Zheng's lips twitching a few times, trying to say something, but was interrupted by Ye Zheng.
"Your Majesty, I am Ye Zheng. Before the three armies, please do not seek personal gain!" Ye Zheng bowed and said, "Your Majesty respect yourself!"
"Rareless!" Behind Huangfu Li, several old ministers were furious when they heard this. Ye Zheng was teaching Liu Bian a lesson.
"Your Majesty, these people said that they had received the edict from His Majesty to come to the throne to punish the unjust ministers. How dare you ask Your Majesty, who is unjust?" Ye Zheng ignored those people and just looked at Liu Bian indifferently and asked.
"This..." Liu Bian looked at Ye Zheng with fear. He found that his nephew was more cruel than his. No matter how Ye Zhao said, he rarely talked to him with such an aggressive attitude. However, after he came back this time to gain the power to supervise the country, he did not take him as his uncle and emperor seriously. Although he spoke respectfully, there was always a sense of toughness and threat in his tone, which made Emperor Liu Bian feel insecure.
Although Ye Zheng was asking, the threatening intention was undoubtedly revealed in his tone. Liu Bian even glanced at the corner of his eyes that Wang Shuang was already touching the knife. What did he say?
"Who do you listen to? I don't know about this!" Looking at Ye Zheng, Liu Bian sighed.
"Your Majesty!" Huangfu Li looked at Ye Zheng in a daze, and after a moment, he suddenly let out a desolate laugh.
Liu Bian felt guilty and dared not face Huangfu Li's gaze.
"Nian'er and others are bewitched, so they can be easily defeated!" Ye Zheng turned his head and looked at the soldiers and said, "You can punish the evildoers and others for their crimes!"
"I dare not help the prince!" Huangfu Li sneered, pulled out his sword and said sternly: "Li will be in the nine springs, let's see what your father and son will end up!"
After saying that, he didn't wait for anyone to take action and committed suicide with his sword.
Huangfu Li died simply, but not everyone had the backbone of Huangfu Li, trying to lead the crowd to break through, but Ye Zheng didn't need to take action. The soldiers who followed them were enough to make these people doom at this moment.
Ye Zheng did not pay attention to the screams and fighting behind him, but turned his head, looked at Liu Bian and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, now there are young people in Chang'an, and there are young people who are always young people who are trying to murder Your Majesty. In order to avoid disturbing Your Majesty, you also ask Your Majesty to move to Changmen Palace, wait for me to clear the young people, and then welcome your Majesty back to Chang'an!"
