Like other streets, Taiping Road is also very deserted.
The Tianhai family and those masters in the palace had already left the city to meet up with the rebels and were outside the palace.
At this time, King Zhongshan left the rebels and returned to the palace on Taipingdao.
The princes of the Chen family have the highest prestige in the military are King Xiang and King Zhongshan.
His departure is a very shocking thing for the rebels, and may even shake the morale of the army.
Qin Chi is the chief counselor of the palace. Instead of going north with the army, he stayed in the capital secretly and liaised and supported him.
After receiving the news, he hurried back to the palace, seeing the prince sitting in the grand master's chair, it was like seeing a ghost.
The king of Zhongshan has been recuperating at Yonglanguan, and he arrived in the capital today. He met with the king in the rebel army, talked for a while, and then returned to his own barracks. No one thought that he would return to the capital by himself Afterwards, I took a shower, slept, and changed into a thin soft silk dress. At this time, I was holding a bowl of noodles with fried sauce and snorting.
"My good lord... what are you doing? Do you know that we are plotting a rebellion? Are we rebelling?"
Qin Chi said with an absurd expression: "You either follow suit, or make up your mind quickly, how can you go home and sleep? This bowl of noodles is so delicious?"
King Zhongshan put down the bowl and said with a blank face, "Annoyance, just tell me what you want!"
Qin Chi rolled his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "Looking at the situation outside the imperial city, King Xiang seems very confident."
King Zhongshan sneered and said, "Do you think brother Wang will make me emperor?"
Qin Chi was slightly startled, and said, "Thinking about it... probably not."
King Zhongshan said: "In this case, whether he can succeed or not, what is the difference between me and now?"
Qin Chi said with a wry smile: "The problem is, if you don't obey the Prime Minister, he will definitely kill you after the matter is over."
King Zhongshan said: "It makes sense. Since Your Majesty will not kill me, I'd better support His Majesty."
Qin Chi was stunned again, thinking where did he start talking about this.
Before he had time to persuade him, King Zhongshan's hand fell on his throat.
—The prince's fingers are like iron, I really shouldn't have persuaded him to put down the bowl of fried noodles just now.
These were Qin Chi's last two thoughts in life.
Until his throat was crushed, he didn't want to understand why the prince knew about his private connection with the Prince Xiang's mansion, and why he would do this.
Qin Chi's body was dragged away, King Zhongshan still felt very unhappy, unbuttoned his clothes, and fanned the wind vigorously.
A beautiful concubine Ji walked in, and upon seeing this, she quickly picked up a small fan to fan him.
What the counselor couldn't understand until his death, this concubine Ji could see clearly.
Even if the prince didn't know that this counselor had private connections with the Prince Xiang's mansion, he would not listen to his opinion, because the prince had never been optimistic about the prince.
Even if the situation of the rebel army is good now, even if King Chen Liu has been a hostage for ten years, he can still successfully persuade so many courtiers, he is indeed a very remarkable person.
"I heard...some people in the palace were also persuaded by King Chen Liu."
The concubine Ji glanced at King Zhongshan with some hesitation.
King Zhongshan said, "A tongue is like a sword. After all, it's not a real sword. What's the use?"
The concubine Ji sighed and filled the wine glass in front of him.
Xiang Wang looked at the autumn sky outside the window, holding a small wine glass in his hand, his mood was not as relaxed as his expression.
The rebels have taken control of Kyoto, but they are still some time away from taking down the imperial palace.
Where did Xiang Wang's confidence come from? Why did he not care about Chen Changsheng
King Zhongshan suddenly thought of something, smashed the wine glass on the table, and shouted sharply: "Pingbeiying!"
…
…
It can be seen from the name that Pingbeiying is the strongest army of the Yaozu.
The Pingbei Battalion was supposed to rush to the aid of the human army and launch an attack on the demons, but shortly after they passed the Congzhou Military Mansion, they stopped marching northward and kept circling in that field.
At the beginning, many people thought it was the monster clan's treachery. Later, when two monster clan reinforcements suddenly appeared under Xuelao City, many people thought that the reason why the Pingbei camp did this was to cover the two monster clan reinforcements. However, it turns out that all guesses are wrong, or incomplete.
Before the two monster clan reinforcements crossed the mountains beside the Xiuling grassland to Xuelao City, the Pingbei camp had already moved ahead of time. Under the deliberate release of the Guan Shoujun, they passed by the left side of Tianliang County without a sound, and finally came to the outskirts of Kyoto.
Moshan has collapsed for ten years and has turned into more than a dozen low and shallow hills with all kinds of wild flowers growing on them.
Passing through the hills, a wild flower will appear on the collar of many monster warriors.
Many farmers along the way have noticed the existence of this demon army. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty could often see the Yaozu, but they rarely saw so many burly men of the Yaozu at the same time. It was unavoidable that they were a little uneasy. They just thought that the Yaozu was an ally of the human race, so they didn't cry out in panic.
The Pingbei Battalion is indeed the most elite unit of the Yaozu. The Yaozu fighters are naturally free and loose, but they still maintained a very good military discipline during such a long march. Until the official meeting with the rebels on the outskirts of Kyoto, there was no problem. There was no military chaos that many people feared.
Twenty thousand powerful monster warriors joined the rebel side, which completely unbalanced the balance of power between the two sides. More importantly, the appearance of the Pingbei Camp in the capital represented Baidi's attitude. It was not until this time that everyone knew that Baidi The emperor and Xiang Wang had already made a covenant.
After the end of the Northern Expedition against the demons, the strong men in the sanctuary must need a long time to recuperate. Shang Xingzhou is old, and Wang Zhice will not participate in secular affairs. With the addition of Baidi, a saint, he is indeed qualified enough to determine the situation of the entire continent.
The morale of the rebels was boosted, but after all, the front line was fighting the demons. Neither the princes nor the generals and soldiers could be truly confident, so until now they have not used large siege weapons such as trebuchets. , but if the stalemate continues like this, bloodshed will inevitably come.
The gate of the imperial city was closed tightly, and the rebels and defenders kept scolding each other. The rebels did not use the siege weapons, or it was for this reason that the divine crossbows on the imperial city were never fired, but those obscenities fell on the ears, and they were no better than those flying arrows go.
With the support of several civil servants, Grand Tutor Baiying tremblingly walked to the city wall, looked at the rebels below, and spoke for a long time through the loudspeaker, seeing that the rebels were unmoved, she couldn't help getting angry, and directly He started shouting at Xiang Wang, and his words were inseparable from Qianqiu's infamy.
The rebels separated like a tidal wave, and King Xiang rode his horse before arriving at the imperial city, and said to Tai Fu Baiying: "Thousands of people point out that they will die without a cure. That is the weak, not me."
Taifu Baiying was disappointed when she heard the words, put her hand on her chest, and was helped down by the officials.
