Cao Wen finally convinced Wu Yizong. On behalf of Wu Sansi, he made an offer to Wu Yizong that he could not refuse. He granted him the title of King of Long, added him as a hussar general, and assigned him 43 counties in the seven states of Longxi as a fief. Establish the Long Kingdom, and your descendants will never cut down the vassal vassal. As the general of the prison guards, Wu Yizong commanded 10,000 palace defenders and controlled all the gates of the palace and imperial city. Therefore, he was a crucial figure in the battle for the palace, and his importance was even more important to some extent. He surpassed Li Zhen, the general of Qianqiying. "The time is set at the first watch tomorrow night. We will enter the East Palace from the Chongguang Gate, and then enter the Taichu Palace from the Mingde Gate of the East Palace. As long as the general opens the Mingde Gate at that time, I should call you His Royal Highness Longwang. " Wu Yizong looked very solemn and nodded slowly, "Then it's settled!" Cao Wen stood up to say goodbye. Wu Yizong kept sending Cao Wen out of the palace. Watching him go away, Wu Yizong returned to his official room with a heavy heart. , just walked into the official room, but unexpectedly found Zhang Yizhi sitting in his official room, looking at him with a half-smile. Behind Zhang Yizhi, Wu Yizong's little tea boy stood humbly. Wu Yizong was so frightened that he retreated and knelt at Zhang Yizhi's feet. Zhang Yizhi smiled and said: "The general is very great now! What should I call you, His Highness Long Wang, right? Your Highness Long Wang, please accept it." The villain bowed." Zhang Yizhi stopped laughing and slammed the table, "Wu Yizong, you are so brave!" Wu Yizong was so frightened that he kowtowed, and Zhang Yizhi snorted loudly, "Say it! Whatever you do, tell me to do it honestly, otherwise, I will kill your dog head." The next day was another day of rest for the court, but almost half of the ministers did not come to the court. The whole court was panicked, and no one was there. Know what's going to happen? No one knows what the future holds for Datang? King Xiang was deposed and King Luling fell into Buddhism. Many people were pessimistic. Maybe the Tang Dynasty was over. Zhang Jianzhi came to his official room before dawn as usual, as if everything that was about to happen in the palace had nothing to do with him. He very calmly dealt with the piles of documents and ultimatums sent from all states and counties in the world. Articles are piled on his desk every day. Of course, there were no officials who came to talk to him about the current situation. Everyone was worried, so the Cambodian capital laughed it off and neither chased others away nor stopped writing the pen in their hands until Shangguan Wan'er sent a confidant maid to bring it to him. A piece of paper sealed in a wax pill made Zhang Jianzhi's attitude suddenly change. He closed the door and locked it. He returned to his seat and took out a knife to cut open the wax ball. Inside was a piece of paper crumpled into a small ball. He opened the paper and read it hastily, and his expression suddenly changed. Zhang Jianzhi walked a few steps in the room with his hands behind his hands. He sat down again and took out a dozen small pieces of paper. On each piece of paper was written a sentence, 'It will rain at night, open an umbrella to avoid it.' Zhang Jianzhi walked out of the room, called two of his confidants up, gave them the note, and gave them a few instructions again and again. The two followers nodded, and they each picked up the large volume of approved documents and went to their respective places. Distributed by the minister's official office. In the afternoon, Zhang Jianzhi left the imperial city and left Luoyang City, but he did not go far. Instead, under the protection of more than a dozen close guards, he rode around to Xiyuan and entered Xiyuan through the outer gate of Xiyuan. Inside, he ran directly towards the Qianqi Camp¡¯s tent. The main tent of Qianqi Camp is where General Li Zhen usually handles official business. At this time, thousands of soldiers were deployed around the tent, wearing armor and swords. They were heavily guarded and no one was allowed to approach the tent. At this time, Zhang Jianzhi hurried to the Chinese army's tent under the leadership of a Jiu Zhi. After waiting for a while, a personal guard came out and said: "Zhang Xiangguo, please come in!" Zhang Jianzhi walked into the tent and saw There are already more than a dozen officials sitting in two rows in the big tent. General Li Zhen is wearing a golden helmet and silver armor, with a general's sword on his waist. He is sitting in the leader's seat on the right. His subordinate is General Zhang Li. Next is General Li Zhan of the Yulin Army. The first seat on the left is empty, which should be Zhang Jianzhi's seat. Below are Yao Chong and Huan Yanfan. Everyone looked serious and no one spoke. Zhang Jianzhi quickly came to his seat and sat down. He glanced at the seat in the middle. The owner of the seat had not come yet. He asked Yao Chong in a low voice: "Who else is there?" Not coming? " "Everyone is here." At this time, Li Zhen said slowly: "Zhang Xiangguo, tell me! What kind of rain will it rain tonight?" Zhang Jianzhi looked at the crowd and said loudly: The exact news is that tonight General Wu Sansi will lead his troops into the palace. The time is the first update. They will first enter the East Palace through Chongguang Gate, and then enter Taichu Palace through Mingde Gate. If nothing happens, Wu Sansi will enter Taichu Palace tonight. Ascend the throne." At this time, someone suddenly snorted loudly from inside the tent, and everyone fell silent. A middle-aged man about fifty years old came out of the tent, wearing a purple robe and a waistband.Jade Belt, he has a medium build, clear eyes, and a foot-long black beard under his chin. This person is none other than King Li Xian of Luling. Everyone stood up and bowed and saluted: "See you, Your Highness!" Only Yao Chong sat there blankly, his eyes full of shock and confusion, as if he had been cast a restraining spell. Li Xian waved his hand, "Everyone, please take a seat. " Li Xian looked at Yao Chong and smiled: "I completely understand Yao Xiangguo's mood. When others saw Gu, they were just as shocked as you, or even more shocked than you. " Yao Chong took a while to react and asked. : "Isn't His Highness under house arrest?" Li Xian smiled slightly, "That one is just a substitute. Everyone thought that I had become a monk, so I found a monk as my substitute. These days I live alone in the general's house. Villa, thanks the general for taking good care of him and sending Chongjun here to reunite with him." Li Zhen bowed and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to be polite. This is a matter of personal responsibility." Li Xian looked at Yao Chong again, "Yao Xiangguo. If you want to refund your account, it's still too late." Yao Chong shook his head and said firmly: "I am willing to go through fire and water for His Highness, even if I die!" Complex emotions burst out in Li Xian's eyes, "I have endured all the humiliation for so many years. , have gone through countless ups and downs, just for today, tonight will be the moment when we rebuild the Tang Dynasty, let us all here witness history together!" The Yulin Army is stationed in the Round Wall City to the north of the palace city. This is also the Cangcheng of Luoyang, which stores a large amount of food. The Yulin Army has about 20,000 people, the largest number among all armies, and is well-equipped and well-trained. It is the backbone of the defense of the palace. The current general of the Yulin Army is Wu Youyi, and there are four generals below him: Wu Yanji, Wu Chongxun, Li Zhan and Yang Yuanyan. As things have developed to this day, although Wu Youyi is loyal to the Zhang brothers, it does not mean that the Zhang brothers can control the Yulin Army. . The Yulin Army has actually been divided and controlled by various major forces. As night fell, a captain of the Yulin Army rushed to Wu Youyi's official room like a gust of wind, knelt down on one knee, and reported excitedly: "General, Li Zhen has been captured!" Wu Youyi was anxiously waiting for Er Zhang's order. When he heard the news, he suddenly stood up and asked anxiously: "Where is he now?" "Reply? General, in his mansion, he returned to his mansion at night and was captured by his brothers who were ambushing outside the mansion. " Wu Youyi was extremely excited. He knew what it meant to catch Li Zhen, as long as he handed over Li Zhen's head. To the Zhang brothers, he would enjoy endless glory and wealth in his life. He was about to report to Er Zhang, but after walking a few steps, he stopped again, thought about it, and immediately ordered: "Go to Li Zhen Mansion! " Wu Youyi decided not to tell the Zhang brothers for the time being, lest the Zhang brothers let others take the credit. He must get the credit. Although the Zhang brothers repeatedly asked him not to leave the Yulin Army Station, he The news that Li Zhen had been captured went to his head, and he led a hundred personal guards to Li Zhen's house in Anrenfang. At this time, Li Zhen's mansion was surrounded by three thousand soldiers of the Yulin Army, led by General Li Zhan of the Yulin Army. Seeing Wu Youyi's arrival, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "See you, General!" Wu Youyi turned over and dismounted and asked: "Where is he?" "He is currently under house arrest, waiting for the general to deal with it." "Very good!" Wu Youyi smiled approvingly: "Well done!" Li Zhan did not take advantage of Li Zhen and ran to receive the credit, letting Wu Youyi Satisfied, he smiled and said: "Go and admire General Li's style!" He led his men and walked quickly into the mansion. Seeing that the big fish had been caught in the net, Li Zhan immediately winked at his generals, and several of his men The famous general understood this and led more than a thousand soldiers of the Yulin Army into the mansion. They heard screams coming from the mansion, and soon it became quiet. Li Zhan came out with a human head, raised it high and shouted: "Wu Youyi helped Zhou to commit evil and deserved his death. The soldiers of the three armies came with me to the palace to eliminate the traitor!" Thousands of soldiers of the Yulin Army raised their arms and shouted, "Kill two Zhangs!" Although Li Zhen's residence was the first to have an accident, but the palace remained silent, as if nothing had happened. At the Yulin Army station in Yuanbi City, Wu Yanji and Yang Yuanyan led 1,500 soldiers to quietly surround Wu Chongxun's official residence. They were patiently waiting for something to happen in the official chamber. Wu Yanji was the eldest son of Wu Chengsi. In this fierce power struggle, they became the focus of various factions. Although Wu Furong reached an agreement with Princess Taiping on behalf of their family and seemed to have surrendered to Princess Taiping, Princess Taiping But he didn't know that something happened many years ago, that is, Li Zhen once saved Wu Chengsi's life. "General Yang, are you sure that His Royal Highness the King of Luling is at the Qianqi Camp?"Yanji asked in a deep voice. Yang Yuanyan smiled slightly, "General, you don't have to believe me, but you should believe General Li. It's the promise he made to you." Wu Yanji nodded silently. It was not easy to make this decision, but he kept in mind his father's last words, 'If in the future When a court coup occurs, they must choose to follow Li Zhen. This is not only his father's gratitude to Li Zhen before his death, but also his father's realization before his death that as the eldest son, he must bear the fate of the entire family.
