Looking at Li Xingba, he assured that Wei Gao had no doubts.
Wei Gao had also heard of Li Xingba's bravery.
Li Xingba and Wei Gao led a group of people to take Emperor Guangxiao and left Lantian quietly
"Is the emperor here?"
Less than a quarter of an hour after Li Xingba and others left, another group of people came to Emperor Guangxiao's camp and asked the soldiers on guard.
"You are?"
"We were sent by His Royal Highness King Lu to protect the emperor, tell me if the emperor is here?"
The visitor said with a serious expression.
They are soldiers and horses mobilized from Luoyang.
Hearing the words to protect the emperor, the soldiers on guard couldn't help laughing inwardly. It was true. Lei Pibao said that someone would come to them, and if he asked if the emperor was there, he would say yes.
"Yes, the emperor is resting in the tent."
replied the soldier.
The visitor looked at the tent, his eyes fixed, and after a moment of contemplation, he was about to walk towards the tent.
"Wait a minute."
Suddenly a voice came, and several soldiers blocked the way of the people who came, "The emperor is resting, may I ask the general what's the matter?" The soldier asked the person in front of him.
"General, if you have nothing else to do, please go back, General. Your Majesty cannot be disturbed at this time." The soldier said seriously, all of this was still within everyone's expectations.
"We are worried about the emperor's safety, can't we go in and have a look?"
The visitor said seriously.
"The emperor cannot be disturbed, please forgive me, the general."
"We don't want to go, so we just take a look outside the camp." The visitor said slowly, they came to see Emperor Guangxiao, and naturally they wanted to confirm whether Emperor Guangxiao was there.
"This is acceptable."
The soldier nodded.
?Going outside the tent, opened the curtain, and looked inside through a gap, just in time to see the emperor resting on the bed.
"General!"
Seeing someone wanting to go in, he was stopped immediately.
Feeling unwilling to take another look, the visitor left, he wanted to go in, but this was Emperor Guangxiao's camp after all, and going in rashly would be a death penalty.
After the people left, the soldier breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had already prepared for it, otherwise he would be exposed
In the afternoon, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was over, and everyone prepared to leave Lantian and return to Chang'an on the second day.
"What did you say? The emperor left Lantian in the morning and returned to Chang'an?"
Bai Jizhong was dumbfounded, didn't they already send someone to watch the emperor? How could someone leave, and there was no news of their people.
"what is going on?"
Bai Jizhong asked the person in front of him angrily.
"We didn't know either. When our people went to look for the emperor, some people said that the emperor had left Lantian." The person in front of Bai Jizhong also said helplessly.
"Immediately send someone to chase the emperor back. The emperor must be in our hands."
Bai Jizhong ordered the people in front of him to catch up quickly. Bai Jizhong felt that this was probably Zhou Heng's trick.
No wonder Zhou Heng was so well-behaved when he offered sacrifices to the heavens.
"Catch up?"
The people in front of Bai Jizhong were stunned for a moment, thinking that they were the emperor, if they chased up and offended the emperor, it would be a death penalty.
"Catch up, and kill anyone who blocks you."
Bai Jizhong said seriously.
Now they can no longer have any hesitation, the matter is about to develop to the point of life and death.
"this?"
"You don't need to ask His Highness for instructions, what I say is what His Highness says." Bai Jizhong waved his hand and said.
Asking people to go after Emperor Xiao, Bai Jizhong hurriedly found Zhou Zheng, "Something happened to your Highness, and the crown prince has always been wary of us. The crown prince sent the emperor to Chang'an this morning."
Bai Jizhong said with his brows furrowed.
Chang'an does not have their people, Zhou Heng sent Emperor Guangxiao to Chang'an is the safest choice.
It was really a mistake, they should let the queen go to Chang'an.
"Then what should I do?"
Zhou stared blankly at Bai Jizhong.
"Chang'an does not have our people. The emperor must not be allowed to return to Chang'an. I have already sent people to chase after him. Your Highness, immediately let Luoyang soldiers surround the Lantian camp, and don't let anyone go."
Bai Ji said resolutelyroad.
"you mean?"
Zhou Zheng felt that things had become serious.
"At this point, there is no other way but to raise troops and seize power." Bai Jizhong said solemnly, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, here they get rid of Zhou Heng and all Zhou Heng's confidantes, and let Emperor Guangxiao give Zhou Zheng the throne.
Zhou Zheng returned to Chang'an as the new emperor.
"this?"
Zhou Zheng hesitated.
"Clang¡ª¡ª"
Just when Zhou was stunned, Bai Jizhong's eyes narrowed, and he drew his sword out from beside him, "Your Highness, today's matter has to be decided. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we delay later, we may really have no chance." , do you really want people to be knives and me to be fish?"
Bai Jizhong pointed his sword at Zhou Zheng.
If you don't raise troops to seize power at this time, you may have no chance in the future. Once the Xiyi is suppressed and the Xiyi army returns, Zhou Heng's power will be even stronger.
Soldiers, officials, and businessmen are all under Zhou Heng's control, and they have no advantage.
Zhou stared blankly at Bai Jizhong.
"Your Highness's imperial power and hegemony are right in front of you. If you miss it, it will be a lifetime." Bai Jizhong said earnestly. Bai Jizhong held a long sword. If Zhou Zheng refused, he would kill himself here.
"good."
Seeing Bai Jizhong like this, Zhou Zheng also nodded slowly.
"I passed on my general order. The crown prince poisoned the emperor, and his heart can be punished. This king enshrines the name of the queen." Zhou Zhen took out his token and threw it to Bai Jizhong in front of him.
"As ordered."
Bai Jizhong picked up the token and turned to leave.
They mobilized all the 50,000 troops from Luoyang. In Lantian, only Lei Pibao had less than 10,000 troops, which was not their opponent at all
"His Royal Highness, something happened!"
Lei Pibao walked in in a panic from outside.
"What's wrong?"
"Patrol soldiers came to report that 50,000 troops had secretly assembled near Lantian." Lei Pibao said with a serious expression, there must be monsters when things go wrong, and the sudden appearance of 50,000 troops must not be a good thing.
"50,000 troops? There aren't so many soldiers near Lantian, are they Luoyang soldiers?"
Zhou Heng made a simple guess.
"That's right, the soldiers and horses of Luoyang were mobilized by the King of Lu. Your Highness, the King of Lu's behavior is probably because he has the heart of disobedience. What should we do?"
Lei Pibao asked Zhou Heng for instructions.
"How many people do we have?"
"Originally I had 20,000 horses, 10,000 stayed in Chang'an, and 10,000 came to Lantian. Now we only have 10,000 horses."
Lei Pibao replied, 10,000 to 50,000, the disparity is really too big.
"You can't fight recklessly, let everyone hurry up and evacuate before Zhou Zheng realizes that we have discovered their scheme." Zhou Heng decided to let Yu Shilin and others leave first.
"good."
Lei Pibao nodded and immediately went down to handle it. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
