Chapter 521 Conspiracy (6)
Zuo Wuwei is responsible for the security guard of the west stand.
Cheng Yao wore his golden helmet and armor, and sat carelessly in the makeshift tent, warming himself by the fire, and kept cursing.
"Fang Er, this little bastard, doesn't have a moment to calm down! It's already the Chinese New Year, but he still wants to cause such a big thing, leaving me here to freeze and drink! If I have this, I won't worry If you want to kill the ball a long time ago, you won’t have to worry about it.”
In the coldest month of winter, being frozen is the second best thing. The key is that this kid has done this, it is really troublesome! With so many people gathered at the top of the mountain, if you are not careful, something big could happen! As one of the two generals responsible for public security, how could he not have any resentment?
There is no merit in being safe and sound. If there is any accident, you will be punished by His Majesty!
Li Yuanchang, who was leisurely on the side, was smiling, holding the tea cup and said: "Don't be upset, Mr. Lu, they are just a bunch of mud-legged businessmen. If you give them ten courages, they won't dare to cause any trouble."
Cheng Yaojin curled his lips, glanced sideways at Li Yuanchang, and asked, "Isn't there something wrong with the prince instead of going to your majesty's side to see if the Kongming lantern can fly, and running to the general's side?"
I hate people like you the most. You feel good about yourself even though you are annoying...
I'm from a mud-legged background, aren't you, mother-in-law, scolding people in front of them?
According to Cheng Yaojin's temper, he had given Li Yuanchang face by not having an attack on the spot. However, he was unhappy and began to chase away guests.
Li Yuanchang didn't seem to understand. He stretched out contentedly and said, "Who bothers to go and sit on the viewing platform? In my opinion, that Fang Jun is talking nonsense. Everyone knows that Kongming lanterns can fly, but can you take this person to fly? Haha …”
He really wanted to go to His Majesty Li Er and find an opportunity to stab him to death!
But His Majesty Li Er is not a fool. Even if he goes there, he will be blocked by the "Hundred Cavalry" and there is no way he can get close, let alone the chance of assassination.
Furthermore, when he planned this matter, he did not want to do something as dangerous as asking for benevolence and assassinating His Majesty Li Er. He would not do it! Moreover, even if he succeeds, how do you know whether Hou Junji and Changsun Chong will throw him out as a scapegoat afterwards to calm the world?
It's better to be here. If you get rid of Cheng Yaojin in front of you, the Zuowuwei will inevitably become a mess and have no leader. Then Hou Junji's left guard will be able to control the situation. It's a matter of success...
While the two were talking, the curtain of the tent was opened, and Hou Junji walked in.
Cheng Yaojin was slightly startled, stood up and cupped his hands, wondering: "Why did General Hou come here?"
This time His Majesty's royal chariot came to Lishan Mountain, and he, Cheng Yaojin, and Hou Junji were responsible for the safety protection. This is a critical moment. If Hou Junji doesn't guard his left guard soldiers, why is he coming here?
Cheng Yao's golden face looks like a rough man, and he acts boldly, but his thoughts are very delicate, and there is a slight suddenness in his heart...
Hou Junji had a relaxed look on his face and said somewhat helplessly: "The Erlang over there is so clumsy that he even built a temporary tent and caused air leakage everywhere. I really can't stand the cold, so come and sit here with me." Get rid of the cold.”
On the entire top of the mountain, except for a few viewing platforms, there were only two temporary camps set up by two generals responsible for security guards to facilitate the handling of unexpected military affairs.
Cheng Yaojin then smiled and said: "Isn't this bad? Your Majesty ordered you and I to guard here, so there can be no omissions. General Hou left his post without permission. This... I'm afraid Your Majesty will blame you!"
There was a trace of bitterness on General Hou's face, and he smiled bitterly and said: "Others are afraid of His Majesty's punishment. What else do you have to fear? To be honest, I have long been tired of beating people to death over the years. If Your Majesty punishes you, at worst, you will retire. It’s not bad to go back to your hometown and enjoy family happiness!”
With that said, he walked to the chair on Cheng Yaojin's side and sat down.
Cheng Yaojin was wary in his heart. He always felt that Hou Junji's behavior was a bit unreasonable, so he moved a step to the side without leaving a trace. Before he could speak, the curtain at the entrance of the camp was opened again, and a confidant rushed in, panicking. He shouted in confusion: "My lord, something bad has happened! There was a commotion in the stands. Some people were holding knives and cutting people on sight. It was all a mess!"
"What?!"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he hurriedly walked to the door: "Go and have a look! You've lost your temper, are you tired of living?"
After saying that, he walked towards the door.
Li Yuanchang stood up, moved his steps, and followed Cheng Yaojin: "I will go with the Duke to have a look."
Cheng Yaojin didn't pay attention and said: "Your Majesty, just sit down and it's nothing serious..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt a coldness in his ribs, and then a sharp pain came. Li Yuanchang had stabbed his ribs with a dagger.
Cheng Yaojin had developed a reaction to danger after years of fighting. As soon as the dagger pierced his body, he suddenly twisted his body in the flash of lightning. He took a step to the side and pulled out the horizontal knife at his waist with his backhand. Roared: "Rebellious ministers and traitors!"
Just wait for a knife to chop it down.
There was a sudden sound of a blade cutting through the air behind him. Cheng Yaojin screamed inwardly and did not bother to chop Li Yuanchang. He dwarfed and rolled on the spot, rushing forward.
There was a burning pain in my back!
Hou Junji did not expect that Cheng Yaojin reacted so quickly. Not only did he avoid being injured by Li Yuanchang's dagger in time, but he was also able to avoid his own sneak attack, only injuring his back! However, Cheng Yaojin must not be allowed to live at this time, otherwise Zuo Wuwei, under his leadership, will become the biggest variable!
Immediately he rushed over with a sullen face, and struck Cheng Yaojin with a knife at the head, who was still lying on the ground and had not yet stood up. He shouted: "Erlangs, kill!"
At the same time, the confidants brought by Hou Junji who stayed outside the account took action boldly after receiving the order, and instantly chopped down more than a dozen of Zuo Wu's bewildered guards.
Zuo Wuwei's soldiers were a little confused. What were Hou Junji's soldiers doing?
It wasn't until he saw his general running out of the military tent like a bloody gourd, with Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang chasing after him, that he suddenly realized that he swarmed up and was chopped down by Hou Junji several times before he could defeat them. Cheng Yaojin rescued him.
Cheng Yaojin was stabbed in the ribs by Li Yuanchang's dagger. Although his internal organs were not injured, the pain was excruciating. He was even slashed in the back by Hou Junji, who almost lost his breath! At this time, he was covered in blood, and he was even more shocked by the merchants and people who were surrounded by chaos and took a breath of cold air.
On all sides of the stands, there were people holding sharp knives, chasing the merchants and killing them wantonly, causing the common people to cry and run away, exacerbating the chaos.
Cheng Yaojin shouted: "Hou Jun gathered Li Yuanchang to plot rebellion and I captured and killed him on the spot!"
Long before coming to Lishan, Cheng Yaojin had received a reminder from His Majesty Li Er to be careful of someone making trouble. But he never expected that it would be Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang who caused the rebellion!
One of these two people is a member of the royal family and the other is the Duke of the dynasty. How could they actually engage in treason?
Did you take the wrong medicine?
Cheng Yaojin was frightened for a moment, but fortunately he reacted quickly just now. If he had been killed by these two people on the spot, the Zuowuwei group would have become a mess without a leader. The top of the mountain is controlled by Hou Junji's Zuowei, so the emperor really If it falls into the hands of these two rebellious officials and thieves, it will be a disaster!
The wound under his ribs was bleeding profusely, and Cheng Yaojin couldn't care less. He gritted his teeth and commanded the Zuowuwei soldiers to besiege Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang. Unexpectedly, another group of Zuowuwei soldiers came from behind to cover them up and kill them. Zuo Wuwei rushed away.
Hou Junji saw that Cheng Yaojin was unstoppable even though he was covered in blood, so he shouted: "Cheng Yaojin is plotting to rebel. Your Majesty has an order, and he will be killed without mercy!"
When the soldiers under his command heard this, they rushed towards Cheng Yaojin like a tide, all with red eyes, and they charged without fear of death!
If you can kill this rebellious official and traitor, the reward will be extremely generous!
These soldiers only knew how to obey the general's orders. If Hou Junji said that Cheng Yaojin was rebelling, then he must be!
Cheng Yaojin was furious: "Young paralysis! Hou Junji, you bastard, did you bring the entire Zuowei camp with you? I have to kill you today!"
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but become furious, and more and more Zuo Wei soldiers gathered around him, suppressing Zuo Wu Wei to death, and they were still coming in a steady stream! It was obvious that Hou Junji had planned this in advance, and the troops brought to the mountain this time completely exceeded the troops needed for emergency response!
Cheng Yaojin was covered in blood, and the horizontal sword in his hand flew up and down, knocking over several left guard soldiers in succession. However, he was surrounded by more and more enemies. The soldiers had to protect Cheng Yaojin and fight their way out. A bloody breakthrough.
When Cheng Yaojin saw the soldiers around him being chopped down one by one, he shouted angrily: "Hou Junji, you son of a bitch, you are a traitor and a traitor, I have long seen that you are not a good bird! Just wait, I I must kill your whole family and make you extinct.”
He broke out with brute strength and wanted to go to Hou Junji to fight for his life, but he was held tightly by the soldiers around him. One of the soldiers cried: "My lord, you can't go there! The green hills are still there, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Let’s go out quickly and find His Majesty’s right path!”
Cheng Yaojin was not a brave person, but he saw the soldiers around him being killed one by one. He was so angry that he wanted to find Hou Junji to fight for his life. When he was reminded, he immediately understood that this was not the time to risk his life. , we must find His Majesty first!
Gritting his teeth, he led his soldiers to break through the siege and moved toward the main stage where His Majesty Li Er was. (End of chapter)
