Chapter 522 Conspiracy (7)
His Majesty Li Er watched as the commotion started from the west viewing platform, spread in all directions like a tide, and soon swept the entire top of the mountain. There were three battalions of forbidden troops on the top of the mountain, five to six thousand merchants and celebrities who came to sell tickets, and tens of thousands of civilians. Soon, it was like boiling water, and everything was in complete chaos.
Although he guessed that someone might take advantage of this opportunity to commit such heinous acts, His Majesty Li Er still couldn't help but feel angry when the rebellion happened in front of him.
Since ancient times, it has been an eternal truth that cunning rabbits die and lackeys are cooked. After all the founding emperors ascended the throne and established the world, they would immediately raise the butcher knife to kill all the old brothers who followed them to conquer the world. Although he, Li Shimin, was not the founding emperor of the country, these people under his command followed him in the south and north, fought east and west, and eliminated all kinds of anti-kings to help the Li family gain this beautiful country. They are the heroes of the founding of the country.
But he, Li Shimin, has never killed a hero because of suspicion!
Take care of your duties as an official, and take care of your soldiers!
Throughout the ages, has any emperor been as broad-minded as Li Shimin?
However, what he got in exchange was such betrayal!
But before His Majesty Li Er could react, an earth-shattering sound shook the viewing platform under his feet, making His Majesty Li Er disgraced and frightened!
Is this gunpowder? !
His Majesty Li Er crawled out from the ruins of broken wood and was shocked. This gunpowder is the most secret thing. In the world, only Fang Jun, who invented it, and Sun Chong, the admiral of the Shenji Camp, can master it.
Is it Fang Jun?
Or Changsun Chong?
His Majesty Li Er was unwilling to make a judgment easily. He firmly believed that no matter who the treasonous person was, they would surface later. He was just secretly glad that he did not bury gunpowder under his butt and blow him up into the sky...
Of course, no one dares to do this!
Once he, Li Shimin, dies, the entire empire will immediately fall into a state of fragmentation. Whether it is the noble families, the barbarians in Lingnan, or the barbarians outside the Great Wall, they will all drag the world into the abyss of war in order to strive for the greatest interests.
His Majesty Li Er believes that the initiators of the rebellion will never want to see this scene. A broken empire is not what they want!
Li Junxian led the elite "Hundred Cavalry" to guard His Majesty Li Er, lifting up the messy wood all the way and rushing down the mountain intersection.
It's just that the entire mountain top is in chaos, with no distinction between friend and foe. The "Hundred Cavalry" has no choice but to clear the way with a sword. Anyone who approaches will be killed regardless of their identity!
However, as soon as they walked out of the viewing platform, more and more soldiers with weapons in their hands surrounded the "Hundred Cavalry" and charged forward without fear of death!
Li Junxian mustered up his energy and followed His Majesty Li Er closely, not daring to be careless in the slightest. Cold sweat had already soaked through the clothes inside the armor!
"Your Majesty, he is a soldier of Zuo Wei!" Li Junxian said bitterly with his eyes widened.
Although His Majesty Li Er was in the midst of the chaos, he was calm and calm, as if he was wandering in the imperial garden without panic, but he looked a little embarrassed with the dust on his head and face.
"Hou Junji!" His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth. If Hou Junji were in front of him, he would want to bite his neck off!
I have supported you from a humble beginning. I have given you the title of Founding Duke and taken charge of the military power with great care. Even if I sent troops to plunder you in the Western Regions and ignored the laws of the military and law as if they were nothing, I would only lock you up for a few days with minor punishments and major warnings. Because of this, you harbor resentment and want to rebel against me?
It's so ungrateful and worse than a beast!
It is impossible for Hou Junji to rebel on his own. He is just a foreign minister with an unfair reputation and an unjust reputation. It is impossible for him to establish himself as emperor.
Now is not the time when the world is in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty. It is time for the Caotou King to have soldiers...
Which prince or royal family member is colluding with him?
*****
Fang Jun was so embarrassed that he gathered his troops together and fell into chaos among the people.
Not far away, groups of soldiers spread out with horizontal knives, slashing and killing everyone they saw. They didn't care whether they were civilians or businessmen and celebrities. They looked like crazy demons.
This is a deliberate attempt to create chaos.
Fang Jun sweated profusely, found a wooden pillar to put under his feet, stood on it and looked around.
Xi Junmai was startled and quickly stopped him: "Master Hou, be careful!"
With this chaotic situation, wouldn't it be a target for him to show up like this?
Fang Jun didn't take it seriously. While looking for the direction of His Majesty Li Er, he said: "Don't worry, it's okay!"
Although the current situation is full of dangers, it is also a great opportunity to save the driver and make a meritorious service!
It was a pity that before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of bow string ringing in his ears. He was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head, and an arrow shot close to his scalp, which made him break out in a cold sweat.
Unless you stand at a high place, you will not be able to detect the whereabouts of His Majesty Li Er.
Xi Junmai reminded: "Your Majesty will definitely go down the mountain, why don't we rush that way too?"
Fang Jun's mind was spinning.
Looking at the soldiers who wantonly slaughtered civilians, we know that at least one of the Zuowei, Zuowuwei, and Shenji battalions responsible for guarding the top of the mountain must have participated in the rebellion. Which of these three, Hou Junji, Cheng Yaojin, and Changsun Chong, would launch a rebellion?
Anyone else would be confused and unable to discern the situation.
But Fang Jun knew that if one of these three rebels, it must be Hou Junji! After all, in history, it was this guy who joined forces with Li Chengqian to rebel against His Majesty Li Er, but before he could do anything, he was killed by His Majesty Li Er in one fell swoop.
Fang Jun gritted his teeth and said: "Charge towards the left guard. Hou Junji must be involved in this rebellion. Killing Hou Junji will be a great achievement!"
Xi Junmai had long been resentful of Hou Junji's indifference and cruelty. The rest of the group also knew that although there were many crises now, it was a good time to gain merit. Hearing this, his morale was shaken, and he protected Fang Jun and went to the left guard. Kill the mountain pass.
Most of these troops followed Fang Jun to the Western Regions and participated in battles against the Turkic cavalry. Regardless of their ambition or ability, they were not comparable to ordinary soldiers. They fought all the way and were unstoppable!
When the pressure eased and his eyes became clear, he somehow managed to break through the siege and rush to the mountain pass!
Fang Jun was not happy at all.
There were so many rebels, but almost no one struggled to fight with him. Most of them fled at the first touch, which meant that all the rebels had a main direction of attack. The task they received must be to besiege the emperor with all their strength. No one paid attention to Fang Jun!
If something unexpected happens to His Majesty Li Er, what will happen?
Fang Jun is not afraid of chaos in the world. No matter who launches this rebellion, he will not kill His Majesty Li Er easily unless he has to. No one wants a turbulent world!
What he was afraid of was that once His Majesty Li Er was captured alive, the Zen position would be basically certain. As a result, the entire history would have changed. Without the "prophecy", could he still prosper in this ancient time?
But if we fight back at this time, we will definitely be surrounded by many people, and one mistake will cost us our lives. Is this a good deal?
What's more, since His Majesty Li Er has already sensed the rebellion, how can he let himself be put in danger without any precautions? I guess I must have some backup plans.
It would be really tragic if you didn't get the credit for saving the driver, but were chopped into dumplings by the rebels...
He was hesitating in his heart when a wisp of smoke floated in the wind at the end of his eyes, but it shocked Fang Jun.
Looking back, I saw thick smoke billowing in the village halfway up the mountain, and fighting was shaking the sky!
Fang Jun's eyes are splitting with tears!
Could it be that the rebels wanted to capture Li Tai, the king of Wei in Zhuangzi, so they attacked Zhuangzi?
It’s okay to burn the Zhuangzi. Anyway, the female relatives have been sent to the palace in Chang’an City because Fang Jun was on guard against Li Tai. At worst, it’s just a new Zhuangzi. How much money will it cost?
But Princess Jinyang is still in Zhuangzi!
Fang Jun could care less about Li Tai's life or death, or his rescue efforts, but he could not let Princess Jinyang fall into the hands of the rebels! Although the possibility of the rebels murdering Princess Jinyang is almost impossible, what if Princess Jinyang is injured because swords and guns have no eyesight? That little girl had an innate qi disease in history. Not to mention being injured by swords and guns, she might have lost her life if she was just frightened!
Fang Jun was anxious and waved his hand: "Go back to Zhuangzi!"
He chopped down an attacking rebel with one knife and ran down the mountain first. Xi Junmai and other troops quickly killed and dispersed the dozen or so rebels who were besieging them, followed Fang Jun closely, and went down the mountain to kill!
