I'm playing tricks in Daqin

Hey.

Lu Zhong was proud of himself, but he still calmed down and considered things. The death of the king was not a good thing for him. There is also the rather powerful Wu clan who is watching from the sidelines, and the situation is not easy to control.

Get rid of Prince Ying and establish a new king?

A crazy idea suddenly flashed in his mind, but it was too risky, it was related to the century-old foundation of the Lu family, even if he was the head of the family, he would not advocate it alone.

"What does the national teacher think?"

Lu Zhong shook his head, trying to get rid of this crazy idea, calm himself down, and let's see what she thinks first.

He picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, the fragrance remained on his lips and teeth, it was very good.

"Father, don't play tricks, just tell me..."

Zheng E's pitiful expression asking for help made Lu Zhong feel very helpful.

"How about... just don't do it at all, just keep on doing it, and support the child in E'er's womb as king?"

Porphyrin... All the tea that Lu Zhong had just swallowed spewed out, causing him to cough again and again, his eyes turned white, and he almost couldn't breathe, this ghost woman, she can't stop talking until she dies!However, it seems to make sense. Since they are all gambling, then simply bet big. The initiative is in their hands, and their strength is much stronger than that of the martial arts. In theory, it is enough to crush the opponent. With an [-]% chance of winning, he If you dare not bet, are you still human? "good idea!"

The more Lu Zhong thought about it, the more complacent he became, he couldn't help the excitement in his heart, he slapped his thigh and laughed, this ghost woman's crazy sentence made him suddenly realize, he decided to take a big gamble! "My lord...I...I was just saying it out of anger...you...are you serious?"

Tang Su'e grumbled, her face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, anyone could see that she was terrified.

"The old man is serious."

Lu Zhong stroked his long beard under his chin, with an inscrutable smile on his face. He had been secretly observing the expression on Tang Su'e's face. Her reaction made him feel relieved. Obviously, that sentence of cruelty was not deliberately done by her. In other words, it was an unintentional statement, that is to say, it was not a pre-dug hole.

Now that the decision has been made, the next step is to discuss various details. The most important thing at the moment is to suppress the death of the Tang king, arrange the Habayashi guards and the imperial guards to enter the palace, and smoothly control the various forces in the three major imperial guards. Get rid of it and completely control the situation in the palace.

The second is to coerce and lure an imperial physician to declare that Concubine Zheng is pregnant with a dragon seed, so she will be invincible first, and then falsely spread the imperial decree to call Prince Ying and a group of important military officials and generals into the palace and put them under house arrest.

At the same time, Lu Zhong used Tang Wang's military talisman to mobilize the city guards outside, control the four city gates and traffic arteries, search for political enemies, and after fully controlling the situation, he tried every means to clean up all the blood of Prince Ying and other royal families. In this way, Concubine Zheng The "Dragon Son" in the belly can justifiably inherit the Datong.

Of course, there is another big trouble, that is the Ninth Princess Tang Feier who is out in charge!

Chapter 418 The Chaos of Tang Capital 2

"Master Zuo Pushe, don't worry, she won't come back."

Tang Su'e said softly, but there was a hint of reluctance in her tone.

She once had the idea of ​​supporting Tang Fei'er, but she was too smart to control, and it was a pity that she couldn't take a bite of such a delicate beauty.

Lu Zhong shook his head, this ghost woman has such a hobby, it is really speechless, anyway, if you can settle Tang Fei'er, that would be great.

After agreeing on the general details of the operation, Lu Zhong left in a hurry. However, he selected a dozen or so clever people from the accompanying escort to stay as liaison personnel, which also meant to monitor.

For Tang Su'e and Zheng E, he was not at ease. He had already shown his ambition to set up his own family before, but he had to come to him only because of something fatal.

Judging from the current situation, he must also cooperate with Tang Su'e, and after he succeeds, he will kill the person, leaving Zheng E alone and can only become his puppet. If necessary, wait for her to "give birth" to the dragon species No matter how time passes, Datang will belong to the Lu family, hehe.

Tang Su'e stood on the stone steps of the palace gate, watching Lu Zhong go away, a sinister smile escaped from the corner of her lips, the praying mantis was catching the cicada, and the oriole was behind, she was the one who had the last laugh.

Later, she acted according to the plan and actively cooperated with Lu Zhong's actions, which made Lu Zhong very satisfied, but still ordered her men to keep an eye on Tang Su'e to prevent her from playing any tricks.

The plan was going well, but Concubine Zheng, who loves the harem alone, suddenly felt unwell. The imperial physician Zhang Kui checked her pulse and confirmed that Concubine Zheng was pregnant with the dragon seed.

When the news came out, the officials were in an uproar. Most people doubted the authenticity of the news, and some even thought that the birth of the child in the womb of Concubine Zheng was unknown.

Doubt is suspicion, but there is no real evidence, and no one dares to speak out. Then, Prince Ying and other members of the royal family were called into the palace, followed by civil and military officials.

However, Wu Lie, Minister of the Ministry of War, suddenly received a warning from a mysterious person on the way into the palace. The treacherous official Lu Zhong had long been ambitious to usurp the throne. He used the fact that Concubine Zheng was pregnant to kill the king, secretly controlled the palace, and put all the members of the royal family under house arrest. The Wu family raised their butcher knives.

Wu Lie was frightened out of his wits and hurried home, regardless of whether the news was true or not, he had to be prepared for emergencies.

The authenticity of this news was soon confirmed. Surrounded by a team of guards, General Yingyang, Lu Ping, broke into the camp in the south of the city with a tiger talisman, and wanted to seize military power. He failed to win the military power, but was surrounded by officers and soldiers in the battalion and lost his life.

Surprised and furious, Wu Lie immediately ordered an early mobilization, issued a call to accuse Lu Zhong of various crimes, held high the banner of justice to protect the king and eliminate traitors, and called on soldiers and horses from all counties and states to eradicate treacherous officials.

Lu Zhong was deploying secretly. He didn't want the news to leak out, but he was seized by the military department, which made him startled and angry. Military power, the difference in strength between the two sides is not too big, the ping-pong-pong fight is lively, the total force used by the two soldiers is as high as 30 people, corpses are scattered all over the place, blood flows into rivers, and the bustling and lively imperial capital suddenly becomes the world In purgatory, everyone is terrified.

Although Wu Lie took the lead, he was still not as powerful as the Lu family's family, and he made a mistake in command in a crucial battle, which eventually led to the defeat of the army. Wu Lie died in the chaotic battle, and the military family was defeated.

However, before Lu Zhong could be happy, he suddenly felt cramps in his abdomen and bleeding from his seven orifices. Before he died, he remembered that he drank half a cup of tea in the palace.

Lu Zhong has calculated all his life, victory is within reach, but he is confused. Once he dies, the Lu clan will have no leader. Threats of assassination, methods emerge in endlessly, insidious and vicious, quickly eradicate dissidents and control the situation.

With the power in her hands, this terrifying woman finally raised her butcher's knife. All members of the royal family, including the eldest grandson, Empress Prince Ying, and so on, even those with a little sweet potato vine, were chopped to pieces by her, and they couldn't die anymore.

Of course, she pushed this blood debt to Lu Zhong. Anyway, the imperial capital at that time was in chaos, with officers and soldiers fighting everywhere, and the palace was not spared. Only Concubine Zheng was favored by God and survived. She was pregnant with the dragon seed, and Tang's incense has not been cut off.

The country cannot be without a king for a day. The unborn little king of Tang was crowned as the new king of Tang.

Although Tang Su'e succeeded in usurping the throne, she still missed something after all her calculations. To be precise, she probably didn't know that there was such a thing as Feige passing on letters.

The imperial capital was in turmoil, and they had been lurking in the city for a long time. The spies who had always had a keen sense of smell immediately released pigeons, and in order to ensure that the news could be transmitted, they released three pigeons at once.

Although the carrier pigeons have undergone long-term special training, not all carrier pigeons can fly home accurately. Of the three carrier pigeons that flew out of Yicheng, only one successfully flew back to Baimo County. The [-] Li speeded up and sent it to Meixian County. It was also because of Li Wei's sentimentality that Tang Fei'er was able to escape the catastrophe.

On the way back to Mei County, Ye Bu Shou came to deliver a message that the Tang army had pulled out its camp and retreated to Tian County, and Ye Bu Shou was secretly following and monitoring.

The situation was unknown, and Li Wei did not dare to order the pursuit. Back in Mei County, he interrogated the wounded and captured assassin in front of Tang Feier.

Under the torture, these assassins were not real dead men, and they all confessed in full. They were all assassins placed in the army by Tang Su'e, the national teacher, to secretly monitor Tang Fei'er's every move.

Just yesterday, they received a beacon signal for action and learned that Tang Fei'er was going to Gutang Mountain for an appointment tomorrow morning, so they sneaked out of the camp and ambush in the forest to assassinate.

"why?"

The assassin's confession stunned Tang Fei'er on the spot, even if she was killed, she couldn't figure out why Tang Su'e would do such a murderous act?Li Wei winked at Wu You, Wu You coughed, and handed over the urgent information sent back from Yicheng, "Your Highness, please take a look at this first."

"What, how is this possible? You lied to me."

After seeing the situation, Tang Fei'er's pretty face instantly became pale and bloodless. Before the expedition, the father was fine, how could it be possible that he collapsed all of a sudden?Also, although Lu Zhong is arrogant, he is not so bold as to rebel, right? "From the standpoint of a friend, I also hope this is not true."

Li Wei let out a sigh and explained in a low voice that this information was sent back urgently by the spies lurking in Yicheng through a special channel. , and the incident happened suddenly, so we can only make a comprehensive analysis based on the situation at that time. If we want to know the reason, we may have to wait a few days.

"Am I a prisoner?"

Tang Fei'er stood there for a while, sighed heavily, then looked at Li Wei, and asked in a low voice.

"No, you are my guest."

Li Wei blurted out, but he couldn't help but feel a little tangled in his heart, could it be... just let her go? "Then can I leave?"

Tang Feier asked anxiously, she wished she could return to the imperial capital right now, but she was afraid that he would not let him go, after all, no matter how you say, the two sides are now enemies fighting for life and death, but a little bit of sweetness surged in her heart Yi, friend, she really likes the word.

"You can leave anytime."

Li Wei smiled, and continued: "However, until the matter is clear, you'd better stay here."

It's not that he doesn't want to let her go, but he's worried about her safety. God knows what Tang Dou is like now, and which side will win in the end?

Since Tang Su'e dared to order the killer in the hidden army to act, it meant that she must have some plan.

"Thank you, but... I have to go back..."

A blush appeared on Tang Fei'er's pale and pretty face. The imperial capital was in such a mess. I don't know what happened to the queen mother and brothers and sisters. No matter what, she had to rush back to help the prince stabilize the situation.

"Okay, I will send someone to escort you to Tian County."

Li Wei sighed, he knew that Tang Fei'er had made up his mind, so he couldn't say anything more.

Tang Fei'er was eager to return home, he just drank a cup of tea in a hurry, and then rushed to Tian County under the escort of a team of cavalry.

If there is any accident, the army will withdraw to station in Tian County. This is what she told Che Gang before going to the appointment. She intends to lead part of the army back to the imperial capital and stabilize the situation first. As for whether he will take this opportunity to attack, Only God knows, if God wants to destroy the Tang Empire, she has nothing to do.

The cavalry escorted Tang Fei'er to the city of Tian County, and then returned to Mei County. Once Tang Fei'er entered the city, he was detained by the officers and soldiers.

Chapter 419 The Chaos of Tang Capital 3

Tang Fei'er didn't know that he was going to Gutang Mountain for an appointment. As soon as he left the barracks, Longqi Yingyang immediately attacked An Tong, killed the deputy commander Che Gang, and then used Che Gang's command arrow to deceive the middle and senior officers of the princess party of the military department Enter the commander's account, kill all of them, and successfully seize the military power.

An Tong was Lu Zhongan's important pawn beside Tang Fei'er. After seeing the signal to attack, he immediately made various arrangements calmly.

The fastest way to transmit information in the Cangyun Continent is the Beacon Fire and the Beacon Smoke. However, they are generally only used in emergencies when the empire is invaded, because they can only transmit the simplest signals or information.

Like Lu Zhong, Tang Su'e also placed some pawns beside Tang Fei'er. These pawns had been instructed before the army set off. The three beacons were the signal for action. What's rare is that the two parties seemed to have discussed it, and the division of labor was quite clear. To be clear, the difference is that Lu Zhong's people are the first to mobilize in the barracks to seize the opportunity. No matter what kind of power they are, as long as they are not from the Lu family, they will all be killed.

An Tong successfully seized the military power, and immediately the main army withdrew to Tian County. The morale of the army was generally low. How could he dare to fight the Qin army?

Moreover, the situation in the imperial capital is unknown. Judging from the current situation, it is safest to retreat and defend.

The army retreated to Tian County, while An Tong set up defenses and strengthened the county's fortifications, he sent people to the imperial capital to inquire about the situation and asked Lu Zhong for instructions.

Tang Feier's sudden return surprised An Tong. After thinking about it, he decided to put him under house arrest. Anyway, when he is in control, he can solve it at any time. In case of any accident or change, Tang Feier can also become a bargaining chips.

There were also hidden spies from the Qin Empire in Tian County, but they couldn't enter the barracks to spy on the news, so naturally they didn't know about Tang Fei'er's house arrest.

Li Wei also didn't know that Tang Fei'er was put under house arrest by An Tong. With the unknown situation of the enemy, difficult logistics and transportation, and insufficient food and grass, he would rather miss the opportunity and continue to wait.

Of course, the above situation was one of the main reasons, and there were also some reasons that he couldn't explain clearly, maybe it was because of Tang Feier.

Fortunately, Wu Youtian Ce Wenzishan and others also agreed to suspend the attack. The main reason is the problem of food and grass. The Tang Empire has been miserable in recent years. Not to mention that the people are not full, and the soldiers may not be able to eat enough. Even if Tian County is conquered Waiting for the city, I'm afraid you won't be able to get much food. On the contrary, in order to appease the people in the city, it is estimated that a large amount of food will be distributed to them. The Oolong Mountain dangerous road is indeed very difficult to walk, which seriously affects the logistics transportation speed.

As a result, there was a rare moment of peace between the two sides, and An Tong honestly ordered his soldiers to reinforce the fortifications of Tian County City. How could he dare to lead the army to take the initiative to attack? It was lucky that the Qin army did not come to attack, and he even prepared to retreat. The real purpose of sticking to Tian County is just to wait for Lu Zhong's instructions.

Five days later, a few ragged people stumbled from the direction of Yicheng, the imperial capital, with injuries on their bodies.

After hearing the soldier's report, An Tong quickly ordered someone to take him into the county government office.

"Mr. Qilang, you are..."

Seeing the tragic situation of the few people in front of him, An Tong's face changed drastically, and a bad feeling surged in his heart.

Qilangjun's name is Lu Bo, Dalangjun of the Qifang of the Lu family, an outstanding figure of the younger generation, a counselor-type talent, and is highly valued by the patriarch Lu Zhong.

"It's over, it's over..."

Lu Bo poured a pot of tea vigorously, took a breath, and said in a deep voice.

"We've all been fooled by that old witch!"

A disciple of the Lu family gritted his teeth and said, his expression of excessive grief and indignation looked ferocious and frightening.

After listening to Lu Bo's narration, An Tong's face turned pale with horror. The three major forces of the Lu family's martial arts and the Princess Party were all fooled by Tang Su'e, and they lost miserably. The old nest is gone. "General An, the only way out is for you to tie up our brothers and surrender to the old witch, or you can join the Qin people."

Lu Bo stared at An Tong intently, with a calm expression on his face.

"An Mou is able to have today, all thanks to Master Pu She, Qi Lang-jun just orders it."

An Tong took a deep breath, looked at Lu Bo and said calmly, not to mention that he didn't want to give in to a woman, even if he surrendered allegiance, he already had the obvious brand of Lu on his body, and it was fate that he would not be killed by the old temptress in the future Great, the official career is definitely gone.

It's better to take advantage of the [-] troops in your hands and surrender to the Qin people, at worst you can keep your current official position.

What's more, he has already experienced the strength of the Qin Empire. In the few wars in recent years, has Datang ever won against them?

Every time he was beaten to the point of bleeding, his muscles and bones were injured, his vitality was seriously injured, and his defeat was only a matter of time. Those who know current affairs are heroes, and I am not a fool, and I can see the situation clearly.

"Okay, the general understands righteousness, and the spirit of the head of the family can rest in peace."

Lu Bo clapped his hands and praised, if he wanted to revive the Lu clan, he had to rely on the Great Qin or other empires, and the Great Qin Empire was the most ideal backer, with An Tong's [-] troops, plus the counties under the jurisdiction of Jindu County, It's also a great gift.

Everyone immediately discussed that An Tong was a fierce general who charged forward, but he was not a general who stood alone. Therefore, knowing what he knew, he completely listened to Lu Bo's arrangements.

Lu Bo asked An Tong to lead an army of [-] to occupy all the counties under the jurisdiction of Jindu County. At the same time, he went to Mei County to negotiate with the Qin Army and brought Tang Fei'er there.

Antong Lubo's voluntary surrender of the city surprised Li Wei and others. They also just received the legend of flying pigeons in Yicheng, and learned that the three major forces of the Princess Party of the Lu family's military family were killing each other. The fisherman picked up a big bargain, and now the imperial capital is under the control of Tang Su'e and Concubine Zheng.

Although these two women issued orders in the name of the unborn little Tang king, not many people obeyed their allegiance, and many officials were sick at home, and they really took a wait-and-see attitude. The sheriffs who held military power remained silent.

The situation was very favorable to Qin, and it was necessary to take Weicheng and Yicheng, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, before Zhou Jin and other empires reacted. Li Wei and others were about to send troops, but Lu Bo rushed to surrender first.

For the people of insight who voluntarily surrendered, Li Wei praised them without hesitation, and told Lu Bo Antong and others to just rest assured and wait for the title to receive the reward.

Tang Fei'er was depressed. She now knew that her parents, brothers and sisters were all dead, and that Tang was also dead. She just sat there, motionless like a stone sculpture.

Li Wei winked at Wu You, and then quietly withdrew, leaving Wu You, who was cheating people to death, to comfort and persuade Tang Fei'er.

"My condolences, Your Highness, the dead cannot be brought back to life. If you want to take revenge, now is the time."

Wu You sighed, and slowly enlightened Tang Feier. If she stepped forward and called out, with her status as a princess, she could still gather some strength. In this way, it would be easier to win Weicheng and Yicheng, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. A lot of strength.

Tang Fei'er's empty and lifeless eyes blinked, and they came back to life in a blink of an eye. To be exact, they were full of chilling and murderous intent.

"However, His Highness is a smart person, and he must be aware of the current situation. I have a way, which can not only allow His Highness to avenge blood and blood, but also step down with dignity."

"Mr. Wu doesn't have to worry about it, as long as Fei'er can get revenge..."

Tang Fei'er's pretty face showed a sad smile. She is a smart person, so she naturally understands Wu You and the current situation. The so-called stepping down with dignity means that after she avenged her revenge, she married Wu You as the queen of the Tang Empire. Li Langjun, the Great Tang Empire was also merged into the Great Qin Empire, and has since ceased to exist.

Since it no longer exists, why bother to make it so smooth?
