Chapter 366 Chang'an Rebellion (1)

In the Cui Mansion, Cui Hongdao looked pale, with deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and the original black hair on his head turned white at the moment. Since he learned that Li Jing had arrived in Dingxiang and successfully rendezvoused with Lu Zhaoci, he

There was a feeling of impending disaster. Because although what he did was very secretive, it could not be hidden from anyone who wanted to do it, and it was even more impossible to hide it from Lu Zhaoci, who had a royal guard. Once the matter was leaked, Cui would be waiting for him.

The outcome of having his whole family beheaded was not the outcome he wanted. The more power and wealth he had in his hands, the more he feared death. Therefore, these days, he never dared to leave the house, even when walking in the Cui Mansion.

Seeing the look in the eyes of the servants looking at me, I felt extremely strange. Over the past few days, I don’t know how many servants have suffered at the hands of Cui Hongdao.

"Uncle is so happy, so happy." At this moment, Master Cui Ren came in from outside the door. His face was full of joy, as if there was really something happy.

"Why are you so happy? Could it be that Lu Zhaoci issued an imperial edict and exempted us from the death penalty?" Cui Hongdao saw a trace of sarcasm on his face when he saw him looking so happy, and sneered: "What we committed was treason.

Even if Lu Zhaoci wanted to pardon us for this kind of crime, the courtiers would not agree. It's a pity. If we are given another period of time, we can accumulate more strength.

, then it is impossible for Lu Zhaoci to deal with us."

"Humph, uncle, just keep this matter in your mind. Even if Lu Zhaoci wants to pardon us, I'm afraid he won't have the chance. Of course, if he wants to kill all of our Cui family, I'm afraid he won't have the chance." Master Cui Ren saw this.

, couldn't help but shook his head, the look of pride on his face became even stronger.

"How do you say this?" Cui Hongdao glanced at Cui Renshi and closed his eyes again, looking careless.

"Uncle, Lu Zhaoci was attacked by Turkic cavalry on his way back to Yanmen Pass, and more than a thousand of the imperial guards accompanying him were killed. Although Lu Zhaoci's body was not seen, I am afraid that he could not escape the opponent's poisonous hands." Cui Renshi smiled.

He said: "Uncle, from now on, our Cui family is safe. Apart from Lu Zhaoci, who else in this world dares to attack you, the head of the country."

"Is this actually happening?" Cui Hongdao's heart moved when he heard this. He stood up suddenly, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Master Cui Ren in surprise and said, "Are you sure, Lu Zhaoci is really dead?" Look at him.

In my mind, I’m afraid I’ve long thought that Lu Zhaoci would die.

"He must be dead at this time." Cui Renshi frowned and said uncertainly: "Although some remaining soldiers said that Colonel Zhao Kuo once escorted Lu Zhaoci and Changsun Wuji to escape, but don't forget, Yan

There is grassland outside the door, which is the territory of the Turks. Lu Zhaoci can only carry a hundred cavalry with him. No matter how powerful he is, he will either be unable to support himself or be killed by the grassland people. If he is short of food and clothing, he will survive.

There are very few opportunities.”

"You are right." Cui Hongdao nodded and said: "If this is true, it is God's will. Hehe, this Lu Zhaoci is self-righteous and thinks he is invincible in the world, but he never thought that no matter how powerful he is, he will still die among everyone in the end.

Under the siege, God really blessed my Cui family."

"Uncle Yingming." Cui Renshi nodded repeatedly and said: "This incident also shows that Lu Zhaoci has no destiny, and I, the Cui family, belong to the destiny."

"At this time, I'm afraid the entire city of Chang'an has fallen into chaos." Cui Hongdao walked up and down the hall, nodding his head and saying: "Lu Zhaoci died for the first time, and his death was in this kind of way.

Sudden death under such circumstances, oh, no, it was a loss of news. This is more surprising than being trapped in Dingxiang. Although Cen Wenwen is in charge of Chang'an City, I am afraid that the current situation cannot be stabilized. This is a good opportunity."

"What my uncle said is true." Cui Renshi nodded and said: "The Tang Dynasty cannot be without a king for a day. There is no news about your majesty at this time, so the prince should succeed him. In order to stabilize people's hearts, he can command the army, destroy the Turks, and become the first emperor.

revenge."

"Yes, yes, you are right." Cui Hongdao nodded repeatedly and said: "Let's go to the East Palace. Hehe, I'm afraid the East Palace will be very lively at this time. If those ministers don't persuade them to come in at this time, what are they waiting for?

When is the time? Time has passed, and I’m afraid there will never be another chance to follow the dragon.”

"Yes, my nephew will arrange for a carriage to go to the East Palace." Master Cui Ren nodded repeatedly and said cautiously: "I'm afraid that soon, my nephew will be able to see my uncle enter the Xuande Palace. At that time, it will be my Cui family's grand exhibition.

At the time of the grand plan, in the near future, the rule of Emperor Wen will be able to reappear in the human world."

"Haha, the Cui family still needs young people. Master Ren, when the time comes, you have to help me." Cui Hongdao didn't seem to hear the strangeness in Cui Renshi's words, and walked out with a smile.

"Yes, yes." Cui Renshi followed closely with a smile on his face, but the light shining in his eyes was so weird and strange.

In the Prince of Shu's Mansion, Lu Ke's eyes were red, obviously caused by crying. Under him, Quan Wanji and other guests and other staff of the Prince of Shu's Mansion gathered in the Prince of Shu's Mansion at this time. After all, the news that came this time was like that.

Shocking. Even in the main hall at this moment, no one dared to speak. Everyone looked at Quan Wanji, knowing that he was one of the counselors of the Shu Palace. If he didn't speak, who would dare to speak.

"Ahem, Your Highness, don't worry. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. With the protection of hundreds of spirits, you can naturally turn disaster into good. What's more, there is no news about Your Majesty at this time, so that's good news." Quan Wanji quickly advised: "At this time,

, The most important thing for Your Highness is to take care of yourself, and then sending people deep into the grassland to search for His Majesty’s traces is the best policy.”

"Ai King Gu is in ruins now. How can he think clearly? If my father leaves, Lu Ke will also be willing to follow him." Lu Ke glanced at everyone, and his tears not only did not stop, but also started to cry.

He became even more powerful. He looked at the crowd and said: "Now that I am controlled by others, I cannot leave Chang'an. Otherwise, I will go to the grassland in person and look for traces of my father."

When everyone heard this, their hearts moved. These guys were naturally not fools to be won over by Lu Ke. Although Lu Ke in front of him was worried about Lu Zhaoci's life and death, he was more worried about his own safety. A country cannot live without a king for a day, Lu Zhaoci

If the prince's life or death is unknown, then it is possible that the prince will succeed to the throne. If the prince succeeds, will there be any living head of Lu Ke? When thinking of this, everyone's expressions changed drastically. If there is no living head of Lu Ke, naturally there will be no living head.

Everyone's boss, these guys have long been linked to Lu Ke's fortune and misfortune. When Lu Ke is unlucky, they will also be unlucky.

"Your Highness, although His Majesty has lost news, it does not mean that he has been killed. What's more, there are still Colonel Zhao and Lord Changsun by his side. He will probably return to Chang'an soon. At this time, if anyone thinks that Your Majesty has been killed, and

The person who ascends to the throne first is committing rebellion. His Highness can unite the royal families, ministers and ministers to oppose this matter. Hum, no matter how powerful His Highness the Crown Prince is, it is impossible not to care about the feelings of the ministers." A staff member stood up.

Come and say it loudly.

"Yes, the prince is cowardly. I think all the princes must have been dissatisfied for a long time. Your Highness can unite all the princes to oppose it. Hum, let's see who dares to be bold." Another aide stood up and said loudly: "You know, although he is

Prince, but His Majesty is still here, how can we allow him to succeed and proclaim himself emperor?"

"Your Highness, this is the only way now." Quan Wanji thought for a while, nodded and said: "If you can, Your Highness, go see the emperor, Cen Wenwen, Lord Cen, and General Xu Shiji. If you can get this

With the support of three people, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not succeed to the throne and become emperor, and the prince will still have a chance."

"But, what if this is my father?" Lu Ke looked worried on his face.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. Your Majesty is absolutely fine." Quan Wanji said with a smile: "If something happens to Your Majesty, it will definitely cause shock in the world. Even the Turks will publicize their achievements everywhere, but so far the Turks have not

When this news came, it can be seen that His Majesty is definitely fine at this time. It’s just that we don’t know where he is. His Majesty can rest assured. Hum, if we can prevent the crown prince from ascending the throne, when His Majesty returns to Chang’an one day, he will definitely

His Highness will be rewarded."

"That's right." Lu Ke's eyes lit up and he said eagerly: "Those guys must not be willing to let Lu Chengzu succeed to the throne. Hum, with Cui behind him, how can we princes have any chance of survival?

It's a pity that the eldest brother is not in Chang'an at this time. If he were in Chang'an, it would probably be even more lively."

"It doesn't matter whether the eldest prince is in Kyoto or not. Hum, I'm afraid not only the princes are not willing to let the Cui family take power, but also the emperor and those clans are not willing to do it." Quan Wanji sneered: "There are also those aristocratic families, no matter what

This is true for Guandong, Guanzhong and Jiangzuo. They will not agree. The mutual interests are enough for everyone to unite and deal with the Cui family together."

"Yes, even Cheng Lielang will not wait for someone to kill him." Lu Ke sneered: "He is not a simple person. Although we don't know what he is thinking, he is definitely not as simple as he appears on the surface.

.Hmph, what's more, Master Cui Ren has long been dissatisfied with us princes. At this time, if he doesn't take the opportunity to kill us, how will he be able to control the government in the future. Others such as Chengtai and others are not simple either.

Damn it, Master Cui Ren, do you think that all the sons born to your father are just drunkards? Are they left to your disposal? Today I want to show you that the majesty of my royal family cannot be resisted." I saw that Lu Ke's face was resolute, but he was

It was extremely majestic, and a huge momentum burst out of the sky. Quan Wanji and others saw this and fell to the ground one after another.

"I am willing to serve His Highness."

Since ancient times, powerful ministers are willing to follow cowardly masters, and famous ministers are willing to follow promising kings. Although the Lu family has only passed through one generation, Lu Zhaoci's series of methods have long made the Lu family strong.

, how can ordinary people compare with it.

"Okay, let's go and see the King of Yue." Lu Ke was overjoyed and said: "I want to join forces with the King of Yue to see the Emperor. Please come forward and see if Master Cui Ren has anything else to say." He knew that with his own strength, he could

However, only by uniting all the power of the clan can we fight against Lu Chengzu's crown prince status. At that moment, Quan Wanji and others followed closely behind and headed towards the Yue Prince's Palace.

At this moment, the atmosphere in Xuande Hall was tense, like a thick layer of dark clouds pressing in the sky, and like a heavy weight pressing on the heart, making everyone in Xuande Hall breathless. Cen Wenwen closed his eyes and pondered.

, Fang Xuanling had an anxious look on his face, Du Ruhui frowned, Wei Ting looked nervous, Xu Shiji rolled his eyes and his face flushed.

"Master Fu, please say something," Wei Ting finally said. Who is most unlucky when the prince ascends the throne? The first one to bear the brunt is the Guanzhong family. These people have long been at odds with the Guandong family. Once the prince ascends the throne, it is conceivable that Master Cui Ren will be the most unlucky.

He must be in power. If this happens, the Guanzhong family will be in danger.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Cen Wenwen opened his eyes, glanced at everyone, and said: "Your Majesty has a destiny, and he is very skilled in martial arts, so nothing will happen to him easily. Don't worry, your Majesty may have escaped from pursuit by this time.

Soldier, we are on our way back to Chang'an, and there will be news soon."

"Yes, if your majesty really falls into the hands of the Turks, I am afraid that the people waiting in Xuande Hall at this time will be the Turks' envoys. Since there is no news from the Turks, it means that your majesty is not in any danger." Du Ruhui also nodded.

He nodded and said: "As long as your majesty did not benefit from the opponent when he was attacked, then with your majesty's ability, after entering the grassland, the opponent will not do anything to your majesty. With a thousand-mile horse and Fang Tian's painted halberd in hand, the world

Who can do anything to His Majesty?"

"This matter is easy to handle. I also believe that Your Majesty is safe and sound, but the most important thing right now is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may be enthroned early." Wei Ting showed a look of embarrassment on his face, his voice slightly raised, and he looked at

Everyone said: "The country cannot live without a king for a day. Even if His Majesty is safe now, I am afraid that in the eyes of caring people, His Majesty has been killed long ago. They will have an excuse to let His Highness the Crown Prince ascend the throne as soon as possible to stabilize the situation in the DPRK."

"Whoever dares to ascend the throne without receiving news from His Majesty is treason." Cen Wenwen sneered: "Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot do it. General Xu, what do you think?" Cen Wenwen looked at the last seat sitting in the seat.

Xu Shiji said.

"That's natural." Xu Shiji nodded with a smile and said, "The general is stationed in Chang'an under His Majesty's order. As long as it is His Majesty's imperial edict, he can order the general to do anything. If there is no His Majesty's imperial edict, even if it is

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no authority to order the generals, so Sir Fu can rest assured."

"That's good." Cen Wenwen nodded and said: "The most important thing right now is the situation in the capital. As long as our Xuande Palace does not fall, the world will not fall, and Chang'an will not be in chaos, then the world will not fall.

Chaos. Unless ordered by the Xuande Palace, no one in the capital can leave Chang'an City, let alone return to the fiefdom. Secondly, order General Qin Yong to return to Junyang Pass immediately to monitor all the actions of the King of the Western Regions. If there is anything discovered by the King of the Western Regions,

If there is any abnormal movement, capture him on the spot and transport him to the capital." After hearing this, everyone's expressions changed. The former was easy to handle, and everyone agreed. But the next sentence shocked people, locking up a prince,

But for such a big matter, who would dare to do this without the emperor's decree? For a time, Fang Xuanling and others were even more impressed by Cen Wenwen's courage.

"If not, what should we do once the eldest prince divides the territory in the Western Region?" Cen Wenwen sneered: "This is an extraordinary period. When Your Majesty returns to the throne in the future, if you want to blame me, blame it on me.

That’s it.”

"Brother Cen, what you said is wrong. You are also planning for the country. Even if His Majesty blames him in the future, we will bear the responsibility together." Fang Xuanling said without thinking: "The King of the Western Regions is indeed an uncertain factor, and it is true that

Be on guard. The Western Regions are far away from the Central Plains. Even though Qin Yong is there, if the King of the Western Regions really wants to split the Tang Dynasty, the trouble will be huge. What you say is a mature way to seek a country."
