Chapter 780 The victory or defeat is settled, and the end
The winter moon is vigorous and rushed for most people, but for the emperor, it is particularly long and difficult to endure.
After seeing the instructions of the twelve Beijing guards in Tangquan Palace, he had to send back the troops in case of Huang Tao's failure, so that he would not be able to dispatch reinforcements in time in case of a change in the city. Instead, he let the palace guards come out unprepared and attack Tangquan Palace.
It was agreed to close the city and force the palace in the afternoon. The emperor was in the Lingshan guard camp and could not sit down. He circled around the open city defense and pictures on the long case.
However, a flattered man smiled and repeatedly comforted the emperor's heart: "There is no need to worry. The empress dowager is a female descendant with shallow knowledge. How could she expect today's incident, and the Duke of Wei is not in Kyoto? His eldest son Su Xing is a civil servant and has never been involved in military affairs. He has recently been transferred to the Beijing Guard, but it is the empress dowager. That's all, it can't be of great use. If it hadn't been recommended by the King of Chu in those years, he would have been idle. Even if it was reused by the previous emperor, he could order the palace guards and never been on the battlefield, what skills could he have? Huang Tongzhi has always been brave, and after years of preparation, he will be caught off guard in the palace.
"I'm worried that Ci'an Palace has been guarded for a long time. After all, Su Yi was attacked first." The emperor is full of worries and can't help complaining that Zhong Guangzhao is useless.
"The emperor is too worried. If the empress dowager is really on guard, she will not allow the emperor to move to Tangquan Palace." The flaretor took it for granted and said, "He is better at planning first and removes Huang Tongzhi from his position."
"Although the Duke of Wei is not here, there is still a prominent father and son."
The darlings are more and more contemptuous: "To be honest, in the eyes of Weichen, the king is nothing more than relying on his father's power. Prince He, the concubine died early, and his only son is weak but does not continue to marry. It is really ridiculous. At the same time, the king of Chu, although he has some talents, his bones are really useless. Some time, he was very sick and angry. I haven't recovered. How many days have you been? There is no energy to take care of a lot.
I don't think about who caused the emperor to be in such a dilemma at all, so I have to gamble.
But this flattery is exactly what the emperor wishes.
I also felt that there was a good chance of winning for a while, and I could sit down.
I didn't know that Shen Zheng had just passed, so I heard Huang Tao to enter the camp.
The sar is still overjoyed: "It must be the same knowledge to bring back the victory, and Weichen congratulates the emperor."
Soon, when he saw Huang Tao's embarrassed and panicked face, he almost bit his tongue, and his happy face was stiff on his cheeks.
He was defeated and failed. Huang Tao didn't even detect which city gate was lost and released reinforcements. The emperor was so angry that he hardly couldn't hold his anger and cut Huang Tao in front of him.
Immediately summoned Lingshan and Tongpu Erwei, and then served as the confidant who had been "cultivated" since his accession to the throne - Jinwu Yulin stationed in Tangquan Palace, gathered nearly 20,000, and rushed to the Beijing Ministry of Health.
Tangquan Palace was then only defended by internal eunuchs. Of course, the emperor did not forget to carry such key hostages as the daughters of the Twelve Guards.
How can I know that along the way, even to Sanwei, there is only one result - the command and incident, Qianhu and other positions were ordered by the Empress Dowager to go to Xishanwei!
The emperor gritted his teeth, and there was no luck at this time. He was sure that the Empress Dowager had been prepared for a long time and waited for him to take action.
And the envoys sent to Tongzhou, Xianghe and other guards have not yet returned. The emperor really can't decide whether the guards are obedient or not. Only by making a single bet and thinking that he has a hostage in hand, can the Twelve Guards really have no scruples?
You must seize the opportunity to win the hearts of the people and attack the imperial city to control the Ci'an Palace to have vitality.
And in front of Xishan Camp, Yu Yu has been waiting for a long time.
It is already when the setting sun sets in the west. The glow of the winter moon is only dark red in the west, and the north wind is more fierce and cold.
The yellow robe was black, and the emperor had a pair of blood eyes, which was supported by thousands of people. When he saw that the iron armor was also dense in front of the camp, he rode it first, and Yu Yu stepped on the golden saddle steadily. Behind him were twelve commanders in red armor, and his swords were in hand.
Seeing the saint, there is no horse, and it is clear that they want to meet each other!
The emperor only felt the qi and blood surging in his chest, a pair of phoenix eyes, awe-inspiringly looking at Yu, and the corners of his lips were cold.
Yu Yu is really determined to rebel, but the good thing is that he is the leader, not the king.
It's just a weak disease with no power to bind chickens.
Yu Yu also smiled - Your grace, I didn't want to fight with you. Our victory or defeat is clear.
Huang Tao scolded angrily: "King of Chu Yu, why don't you kneel down to welcome him when you see the holy driver?"
He shouted out, but the scene was still silent.
Su Xing was immediately in front of her, but she did not see the ceremony, but unfolded the yellow scroll and slowly eased tomorrow's crime.
"I obeyed your order, please return to the palace." When Su Xun's words fell, Yu Yu ignored Tianzi's blue and white face, and said simply but politely.
Although there is the word "please", who knows that it is forced.
"If I don't obey, what do you want to do?" The emperor sneered.
"Gao Zu Ling Jian is here, please follow the order." The arm was raised lightly, and the golden dragon coiled its sheath, but this time it did not come out with a sword.
Because of the sword, you have to kill people.
"It is really nonsense for the Empress Dowager to say that I usurped the throne. It is clear that the Empress Dowager intends to seize power, and the accusation against me by the Duke of Wei is also framed. Because of the conspiracy, I have no choice but to do extraordinary things, aiming to safeguard the ancestral family law and Yu Jiangshan!" At this time, the emperor no longer insisted on the "assassin" statement, did not seize the opportunity, and no matter what statement was used.
The emperor's eyes are like a cold sword, looking around at the twelve command: "All the beloved generals are loyal and brave. Don't be blinded by traitors." However, with a wave of his hand, the wolf-like guardian immediately put a row of female relatives and knelt heavily on the ground. They all wore streaked in confusion, with dead ashes, tears streaming down their faces, and listened to a piece of "crying". The guard's cold sword came out of its sheath and pressed straight to the woman's neck.
The twelve commanders were full of resentment and grasped the scabbard.
Although all ethnic groups are men, they are treated with courtesy in Ci'an Palace and have never been humiliated, but the emperor bullied the weak female stream like this, but any hot-blooded man will not be calm at this time.
Among the twelve guards, Donghuaibo was the most powerful, and in addition to his aunt and two direct daughters, there was also a mother-in-law who had been ill-aged. Seeing his old mother kneeling on the ground, Donghuaibo only felt the evil waves rolling in his chest and couldn't help turning over and get off the horse.
The emperor was overjoyed and thought that someone would be sincere.
Unexpectedly, Donghuaibo turned back, separated the guards, and pulled out one person. He still knelt on the ground without drawing his sword, but only tightened the woman's neck: "Reverse to the emperor! If you dare to hurt my family, I will kill this woman on the spot first!"
Donghuaibo is completely risky.
Huang Tao fixed his eyes and his eyes suddenly burst into flames.
Because the person kneeling on the ground is Liao Jieyu.
"Bold thief!" Huang Tao couldn't help roaring.
Yu Yu said lightly, "Please invite the Empress Dowager."
Even if the concubines in the harem, including the queen, will not threaten the emperor. Only the empress dowager has one or two parts. Even if the emperor is unwilling to give up the overall situation for these women, in full view of the public, the biological mother must not be ignored.
The Empress Dowager was not wronged, but was still well dressed and elegant.
But of course, the face is not so good-looking.
It was not until then that Huang Tao realized how Liao Jieyu, who was supposed to be in Tangquan Palace, fell into the enemy.
There was an internal response in Tangquan Palace, and the emperor transferred all his relatives and guards away. When he was busy rushing to the guards to force the army, the Beijing guards arranged by Yu conspired with the inside and outside. It was easy to rescue the rest of the hostages, not to mention the empress dowager, the queen and so on.
He even arrived at Xishanwei one step earlier than the emperor - the emperor took a big circle, but the hostages took a shortcut.
"Yu Yu!" The emperor was furious and his cold sword came out of its sheath: "Do you dare to disrespect the Empress Dowager?"
"I only act according to Yi's decree, and the Empress Dowager is also involved in it. Naturally, please return together." Yu Yu is not afraid.
As soon as the sword of heaven came out of its sheath, the twelve commanders came forward together and took the front. They all grasped the sword. Obviously, they would no longer be threatened.
Su Yu took the lead and shouted harshly: "My minister, please return to the palace with the decree of Yi!"
80,000 soldiers behind him said in unison: "Please return to the palace with the decree of Yi!"
It seems that the Empress Dowager is crying and scolding: "You gangsters and thieves..." But unfortunately, it was completely covered up by the mountain.
The general trend is gone, and the emperor only feels that his back is cold.
"Holy, you can retreat to Xianghe and find a good strategy." Huang Tao was also frightened, but he still did not want to give up. If he gave up, he would only have one way to die. He would go east for half his life, and he would be accused by thousands of people and be scolded as a traitor. This is by no means his expectation, and he must not be discouraged by this.
"All the guards listen to the order! The Empress Dowager has a purpose, and there are many unknowns. If she regrets, she will never be held accountable. If she persists and does not understand, she will be regarded as a rebellion, harm to the three clans, and will never be forgiven!" Yu Yu raised his voice again.
First, there is silence, and then gradually there is the sound of sword falling to the ground.
The emperor closed his eyes, and the coldness of the corners of his lips finally turned into bitterness.
He lost.
The ninety-five, but the people betrayed their relatives and lost to a female stream.
Poor emperor, I don't know who the real opponent is until the end.
However, under the persuasion of Huang Tao and some of the thieves, the emperor finally failed to be captured and tried to withdraw. The twelve commanders rushed up. Because Yu Yu had already signaled that when the emperor was frustrated and the other party's army was in turmoil, he first rescued the hostages. He rushed forward like a wolf and tiger with the twelve command to deal with the sword forcing the family. Family's personal guard.
Because there is no emperor's will, he must take into account the empress dowager. The emperor's personal guard is at a loss. Of course, he dares not make his own decision. The action to rescue the hostages is smoother than expected.
Su Xing and Cai Zhen were the first to attack the rebels, and the Beijing guards, who had been ambushed for a long time, cut off the retreat of the emperor.
The result is that the emperor was captured before he ran out of ten miles.
Huang Tao even had to run farther, but he did not get rid of Su Xing's desperate pursuit and was finally arrested.
At this point, Xin Wei's coup was completely calmed down. It was in the evening that the distant mountains were dark, and the western sky was still faint.
The emperor was not imprisoned, but under house arrest in the Qianming Palace.
The Empress Dowager forced Jiang Qinggu to try Jiang Qinggu overnight - which was also Yu's idea. The empress dowager was forced to live and die. If Jiang Qinggu volunteered to "honestly" poison King Fu and "correct edict", the empress dowager would have her life.
The Chen family has surrendered, and the empress dowager is not afraid. Her life and death have nothing to do with the overall situation, but if Jiang Qinggu can admit her guilt, the officials will be more convinced.
Qin Ziruo, who was "explained" by her, easily arrested the live collection of the Qin family, and Zhou Zhong, the party involved, "suddenly appeared", and the criminal evidence became more and more conclusive. The Empress Dowager simply forced Qin Ziruo again. The girl learned that the emperor was not safe, and her soul was instantly scattered. She saw those gloomy punishments. Gu, immediately woke up. She was a smart person. She quickly judged that there was only one way to die without gritting her teeth, let alone be tortured in vain. She immediately confessed and confessed how the emperor poisoned King Fu, but repeatedly shouted for the family, saying that she did not know at first, but later covered it up for the emperor.
Of course, Qin Ziruo's words were selectively ignored by the Empress Dowager.
In the morning of the next day, there was an official version of the coup - it was because the four daughters of the Yang clan defrauded the death of King Fu from Qin Ziruo. The empress dowager became suspicious and observed that there had been a secret relationship with the emperor in the Qing Valley of the Ming River. She became more and more determined that the empress dowager secretly observed that the old case was known by the emperor, so she had the intention of seizing power. , plotting with Qin's party members to take advantage of naturalization and losing the defense, the Duke of the State of Wei led the army to assassinate him and seize the military charm.
When the incident failed, the emperor knew that his crime was exposed, so he broke the boat and ordered Huang Tao to force the palace.
As for Jiang Qinggu's admiration for the Empress Dowager, it was not made public for the sake of the sake of the former emperor's attire and the selection of the Chen family.
Although Jiang Qinggu heard with his own ears that the former emperor did have an edict to transfer the throne, he knew that if he did not obey the will of the empress dowager at this time, his "private friendship" with the empress dowager was bound to be made public, and the empress dowager would never have no way to live.
has to compromise.
But the empress dowager did not appreciate it. Although she had been under house arrest since she returned to the palace, she gritted her teeth and cursed Jiang Qinggu to death.
Of course, this curse came true, and Jiang Qinggu could not escape the punishment, but Jiang Han and Jiang Wei were pardoned. In fact, only the Qin family and his in-laws who participated in the naturalization and coup forced the palace.
The case was quickly concluded, and the emperor was abolished as a commoner and banned for life.
However, the history of three years in power cannot be erased, so although he did not end, the Empress Dowager discussed hundreds of officials and decided to summarize the short imperial career of King Qing with the title of "thorn".
The decree is on the cloud: don't forget that love is called a thorn; if you are cruel, it is called a thorn; if you are violent and have no relatives, it is called a thorn; if you slow down, you are called a thorn.
This word "thorn" is actually a reprimand, and eventually became the nickname of the abandoned emperor.
