The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 794 Tangzhou changes hands

"C shoot! Shoot the man in the red robe!"

Although the people of the Yue Palace under the city had been severely damaged by fire oil bombs, Sun San still refused to give up. As soon as he saw a tall young man in red robes rolling to the ground in flames, Sun San immediately showed a ferocious smile at the corners of his mouth and shouted loudly.

"Woth, sw..."

Under Sun San's order, six sergeants holding crossbows moved. In the sound of the machine spring, dozens of steel arrows passed like locusts and roared at the young man in a big red official robe. The poor young man was being burned by the fire. How could he avoid the shooting of chaotic arrows? He only had time to make a With a heartbreaking howling, he was ejaculated into a hedgehog.

"Third brother, ah..., go, go to the city, stop the thief!"

Although Li Chong was conceited and brave, he was actually a rookie who had not been fighting. Suddenly attacked, he was dumbfounded on the spot. It was not until he saw the red-robed young man die on the spot that he let out an angry and roared angrily.

"Uptown!"

"Come with me!"

"Fight!"

......

Among the nearly 2,000 soldiers led by Li Chong, in addition to 1,500 royal guards, there are also more than 400 Jianghu heroes led by the two masters of Zhang Chu and Yan Wanshan. These people may not be able to fight, but they are quite good at dealing with such chaotic scenes. Almost at the same time as Li Chong ordered, Zhang and Yan His hand had unfolded at the same time, leading his subordinates to rush into the gate cave, intending to go up the gate tower along the stairs inside the gate to control this strategic place.

"Withdraw!"

Sun San originally wanted to confirm whether the dead red-robed young man was really Li Wen himself, but he didn't expect that the people of Yue's family would react so quickly that he did not dare to stay here more dangerously. He hurriedly roared and led his troops to flee along the city wall to the west gate. However, before he left, he did not forget to The crossbow, accessories and other things were lost to the ground.

"Report, little prince, the thief has escaped, and many relics were found at the scene. Please make it clear!"

Sun San and others fled quickly. Zhang Chu and others chased for a while. Seeing that they could not catch up, they were afraid of being in the middle, and they did not dare to chase them again. After guarding the head of the city, they sent a bodyguard down the city and reported the news to Li Chong.

"Huh, blockade the scene. No matter who is allowed to leave the same place, those who violate the order will be killed without mercy!"

Li Chong's face was as gloomy as ice. What was the expression of the two local chief officials, Pei Xuancheng and Yan Xiao, who didn't take care of it at all, and their tone reached the martial law.

"Li Langzhong, it seems that this case should be handled by my Tangzhou?"

Although Li Chong is the son of the king of Yue, the actual official title is only the order of the Ministry of War. In terms of official rank, it is just under the five grades, not to mention that it is not as good as Pei Xuancheng's four grades, and it is not as good as the five grades of Yan Xiao. His unauthorized orders are undoubtedly beyond his authority, although Pei Xuancheng is He will step down, but after all, he hasn't left office yet. As an assassin, he naturally can't sit back and watch Li Chong randomly issue a commander here. He stood up from the side and said unhappily.

"Two adults, please!"

Li Chong's temper has always been very violent. In addition to not daring to be presumptuous in front of the King of Yue, if others dare to disobey, they will certainly not forgive him. Even in the face of the powerful Empress Wu and the brave prince Li Xian, he dares to resist loudly. However, in the face of Pei Xuancheng's doubts, it is rare to protect He was calm and didn't say much. He just had a gloomy face and waved his hand to signal, but he walked into the gate hole. When he came out, Pei and Yan couldn't say more. They could only follow Li Chong helplessly.

"The little prince, are you incompetent? If you can't catch the murderer, please ask the little prince to commit a crime."

Li Chonggang and his entourage went to the gate tower. Zhang Chu, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly greeted him. He bowed and apologized with an apologetic face.

"What did you find?"

Li Chong waved his hand, stopped Zhang Chu's words, looked around the chaotic scene, and asked coldly.

"When I returned to the little prince, I found six crossbows at the scene, with the Hexi military emblem. In addition, I found several accessories of the East Palace Guard. Please ask the little prince to check it clearly."

As soon as he said what he got at the scene, Zhang Chu's face became ferocious in an instant. He almost gritted his teeth and reported the situation one by one.

"Adults, do you have any advice on this, huh?"

Li Chong was not in a hurry to verify what Zhang Chu said, but leaned down, glanced at Pei and Yan, and snorted.

"Li Langzhong, I have said that this is the case of Tangzhou, which must be broken by me, Tangzhou, and others are not allowed to do it without authorization!"

For Li Chong's anti-guest behavior, Yan Xiao just blinked his eyes and didn't say anything, but Pei Xuancheng couldn't help it. He stepped forward with a pale face and protested righteously.

"Well, Lord Pei said it well. Tangzhou is a matter. Naturally, Tangzhou should be broken. Come on, go and invite the third brother!"

Li Chong looked at Pei Xuancheng coldly for a long time, and suddenly laughed gloomily. First, he affirmed Pei Xuancheng's words, and then suddenly raised his tone and drank a loud voice.

"Hmm?"

"What?"

......

Hearing Li Chong's words, Pei and Yan couldn't help but be stunned, nothing else, because when the previous three carriages were attacked, the red-robed young man who escaped from the middle carriage had clearly died under the crossbow. Yan Xiao witnessed this with his own eyes, and although Pei Xuancheng had not witnessed it, he also saw it. After the body of the young man in red robe, he thought that the dead must be Li Wen, but when he heard Li Chong shouting, it was obviously not like this. Although Pei and Yan had different thoughts, their surprised expressions were the same.

"No!"

Li Chong ordered that the guards with their own bodyguards on the side answered loudly. After a while, they surrounded two people in casual clothes and walked to the gate tower. One of them was tall and was Li Wen, who should have died under the crossbow. As for the other, he was a elegant middle-aged scholar, who turned out to be the chief of the Yue Palace. Think tank Chen Wushuang!

"Big brother!"

Li Wen was in a motorcade that left Caizhou. He sneaked into Tangzhou day and night by a group of dead men from the Yuewang Mansion. He rushed all the way and suffered a lot. His original red and tender face was quite gray at this time, but his spirit was very good. As soon as Fang came to the head of the city, he took a few big steps to Li Chong's side. He gave a greeting.

"Well, the third brother came just in time. Lord Pei proposed that Tangzhou should be cut off from Tangzhou. For my brother, he also felt that since you were ordered to enter Tangzhou, it would be handed over to Lord Pei."

Li Chong curled his mouth, showed a sarcastic smile, waved his hand to Li Wen, and ordered unsalvely.

"Okay, I'll give it to my little brother."

At the thought of being able to control Tangzhou in his hands immediately, Li Wen was very proud. He smiled and answered casually. Even if he turned around and looked at Pei and Yan, he pretended to arch his hand and said, "Your Excellency, please, Li Wen, by Your Majesty's edict. Ling, I came to Tangzhou to take office. Thank you for waiting for a long time. It's rude.

"I dare not. General Li has worked hard all the way. Please go to the post station to rest first. It's not too late to discuss it tomorrow."

Although Pei Xuancheng had never been involved in the whirlpool of political disputes in the imperial court, he was straightforward by nature, but he was not pleasing to see a group of people in the Yue Palace. He did not want to fulfill the wishes of the Yue Palace, so he bowed back and answered perfunctorily.

"Lord Pei's words are wrong. I would have been ordered by the emperor to come, and I don't dare to delay for a moment. Now since the thief wants to stab me, I have to find out as soon as possible. The so-called choice of day is better than to hit the day. It is also appropriate to ask Lord Pei to hand over the state affairs."

Li Wen was originally a vulgar person, but when he was about to say this, he was also very polite. Obviously, this line was definitely memorized in advance.

"This... General Li doesn't know anything. The handing over is trivial. It can't be done in a day. No matter how urgent it is, it must be done after I return to the government office."

Although he didn't quite understand why the Yuewang Mansion and his party had to hand over the state affairs so urgently, Pei Xuancheng subconsciously did not want to fulfill the wishes of this group. After ponding for a moment, he still refused Li Wen's proposal.

"Isn't Lord Pei in a hurry to obey the power? Today, there is an oracle here. Does Lord Pei have to do something against the decree, huh?"

Hearing Pei Xuancheng pushing so endlessly, Li Wen immediately pulled down his face, reached out and took out a yellow silk masked imperial edict from his wide sleeve. He held it in his hands, raised it high above his head, and asked arrogantly.

"Pai doesn't dare. Since he has a holy purpose, everything should be done according to the imperial edict."

As soon as the imperial edict came out, even if Pei Xuancheng was unwilling, there was no way. In desperation, he could only take half a step back and bowed his body to answer.

"Very good. In this case, you and I have passed the handover. Please ask Lord Pei to go back to your house to rest, and I will be responsible for this!"

Li Wen didn't know how many times he had been practiced by Chen Wushuang before he came, and he knew the drama. When he saw Pei Xuancheng retreated, he immediately rushed in and said.

"Lord Li, stay, I'm leaving!"

After being forced to hand over the position of assassin, although Pei Xuancheng was extremely angry, he was no longer qualified to manage state affairs. No matter how reluctant he was, he could only leave a scene with a pale face, brushed his sleeves, led the entourage down the gate tower, and went back to the house by himself.

"Lord Yan, I was assassinated before I took office. I'm afraid that the public security in Tangzhou is worrying."

Li Wen ignored Pei Xuancheng's negative anger and left. He looked sideways at Yan Xiao and said with a smile.

"This..."

Knowing that Li Wen was playing an official tone, Yan Xiao had no choice but to bow helplessly and kept silent wisely.

"Lord Yan, these assassins can sneak into the gate tower and have military-style equipment. I'm afraid it's not that simple. There must be an internal response. Before it is found out, the rolling officials can't escape the suspicion. I have decided that the whole city is martial law. All the officials present are wronged first. When I solve the case. , let's discuss the rest. I don't know what Lord Yan is like, huh?"

Once the power was in hand, Li Wenke rudely picked up the chicken feather as an arrow, and the official said with full power.

"Isn't this appropriate?"

As soon as he heard that Li Wen was going to detain all the officials, Yan Xiao had a ghost in his heart. He was shocked and sweated coldly and hurriedly objected.

"It's not right or wrong. If the thief leaves, does Lord Yan want to take full responsibility, huh?"

Li Wen smiled and shouted rudely.

"Your Excellency is joking. How dare you, how dare you, how dare you, but, ah, it's just a big deal. Do you think we can discuss it later?"

It is a felony to assassinate the imperial official. How dare Yan Xiao really carry this black pot on his own body, and his face turned red.

"Well, that's it. Come on, invite all the officials to the post station and treat them well. I have my own ideas when I go back!"

What Li Wen wants is to control the whole Tangzhou in his hands. How can he care about the officials? This time, Yan Xiao has bowed his head and no longer has a lot. His face is darkened, and he breaks his throat. Since a group of the guards of the Yue Palace heard the order, regardless of the protests of the officials of Tangzhou, they brazenly took all the officials present. All the staff were detained...
