Qinse is in the imperial court, forgetting both favor and disgrace

Zhao Rang didn't know Wei Yixiao's determination, he sank in the soft seat in the chariot, his mind was wandering, he was still thinking about the promise made by the monk who claimed to be Emperor Li Xian during his trip to the glazed pagoda that night:

"If you help me get rid of the traitors and rebels, and regain the throne, I will not only protect your wife, but also let you return to South Vietnam. You can still support the army and occupy the domain. I will issue an edict to the world at that time, and formally canonize you As the king of Nanyue, the throne will be inherited by your Zhao family. And after the success is complete, my rebellious son will also be at your disposal, whether it is life or death, I will never ask."

And last night, Haixuan reiterated his condition again, but this time the situation changed again, and Zhao Rang's wife and children fell into Li Lang's hands. Where? If he has half trust and reliance on you, he will never do anything to kill your close relatives. Zhao Rang, do you still believe that kid treats you differently? Your end will be just a step down. Prisoner, even if you are lucky enough to get your life, you are willing to be that child's lifelong darling, no different from an eunuch's wife?"

Zhao Rang raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "The princess is new here, and she only acts with courage. Don't say that she never thought of instigating the South Vietnamese army who was secretly transferred to Jinling. She was suddenly helped by God and realized this method. She I don’t even have the ability to find the barracks in the mountains outside the city—let alone take my son with me. Maybe I’m worrying too much, but the princess seems to have been instructed by an ‘expert’ on her trip, which made her willing to throw herself into the trap.”

During the conversation, the two looked at each other without any scruples, each with a slight smile, and when Zhao Rang finished speaking, Haixuan said without changing his face: "Your wife has a fierce temper, and since she deeply regrets that she has been entrusted to someone who is not a person, it is inevitable that she will behave in a wrong way." Not being cautious, if I hadn't tried my best to dissuade her, she would have planned to sneak into the palace and die with the thief. Zhao Rang, in your opinion, whose fault is this?"

Recalling this, Zhao Rang's complexion sank. Fortunately, he was sitting in the sedan chair and there was no one else around him. He laughed it off at the time, but he had to admit that Haixuan's words hit his sore spot.

Ye Ying and his husband and wife, fly side by side, and even live and die together, even if Lao Yan is separated now, can he see that woman suffer humiliation in full view of the public?

Knowing that it was a trap set up by others with sinister intentions, there was nothing he could do.

Haixuan also mentioned that Zhao Rang had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and did not save the siege of Jinling, which made the courtiers' teeth cold. During this period of time, there were frequent visions of Lianhu, and even more rumors spread loudly. It was conclusively said that this was a bad omen for the general's rebellion, and he was confronted with Zhao Rang himself.

Li Lang beheaded the South Vietnamese rebels in public in order to calm people's hearts and publicize the emperor's prestige. Maybe Li Lang's own selfish desires were mixed in it, but in the end, he was really wholehearted in keeping Zhao Rang alive.

Although he is not dead, he is just a walking dead, Zhao Rang laughed at himself silently, but unfortunately he is not the beauty Jiao'e who can serve the king wholeheartedly.

Once again, he was fortunate to be able to take advantage of the unpreparedness of everyone in the tower and get rid of the snake and scorpion jade.

Zhao Rang also knew a thing or two about the vision of Lianhu from Li Ming's mouth that day. According to Li Ming, the matter was not true at all.

In the Central Plains of the Lianhu Water Army, there are Haixuan's loyal subordinates, and a dozen of them disguise themselves as fishermen, and appear on the Lianhu Lake at a certain time according to orders.

When the effect of the fragrance is combined, everyone will be in a trance, visions will appear in front of their eyes, and there will be strange noises in their ears. At this time, as long as someone takes the lead in shouting out what he has seen and heard, the more vividly the description is, the more it will be able to impress the people present. , seeing the same thing and hearing the same sound as this person.

This trick is worthless when you put it bluntly. At that time, Li Ming couldn't believe it. He only thought that maybe his mother didn't tell him frankly, but Zhao Rang smiled wryly and said to Li Ming: "If you know why, the army was defeated like a mountain." ’ and you have to believe it can happen.”

When Zhao Rang went south with his father to recover Fujian, the rebel army divided into three groups, trying to flank the left and right sides. After they defeated the middle road, they immediately spread the news that the enemy general had given the head to the four fields. dissolve.

The so-called mob is like this, and it takes only a moment to get together and disperse to calm the chaos.

After thinking about it like this, Zhao Rang unconsciously clenched his fists on his knees. That Haixuan was indeed a character. He killed Ziyu, betting on the character of this person. I don't think he can really laugh at the tragic death of a right-hand man. .

Is this person really Li Xian?

Zhao Rang has always been dubious about his identity, and what he is confused about is Ziyu's identity.

If what Li Ming said is true and he is the son of Li Xian, then Ziyu, as the biological mother of the emperor's heir, would sacrifice her life to live with Xie Kun. So disrespectful, despicable and shameless.

However, if Li Ming didn't have a special background, it can't explain why he pretended to be his daughter from the beginning of his birth, and even escaped with this identity when the catastrophe hit.

What is credible is that apart from Haixuan's ability to tell the past of the "Supreme Emperor" without hesitation, there is also Li Lang's background - Zhao Rang was in South Vietnam, and he had heard some rumors that he was bloodthirsty and vicious today. It is an untrue statement, and Li Xian's disregard for the three princes is well known to everyone in the court and the court, so is what Haixuan said really the truth?

These mysteries lingered in Zhao Rang's mind, but he was not allowed to think about it after dawn.

During the visit in the daytime, most of the members of the royal family were present, with the Queen Mother leading the way, and Zhao Rang at the end. Watching Haixuan from afar in front of Li Lang, he folded his palms together to salute.

The ceremonies were noisy until sunset, when all the honored guests, monks and laymen took their seats, and respectfully sent the emperor to Lianhu Lake.

Only Emperor Li Lang, Zhao Rang and others were on this trip. As it was getting late, the Empress Dowager wanted to offer incense and pray again in the morning, and the Crown Prince was too weak to avoid the wind and cold, so they did not accompany them.

The location of Lianhu Lake is in the north of Jinling City, and the car is driving slowly. When it is almost there, the sky is already full of stars. The accident happened just when it was about to get dark——

Zhao Rang first felt the chariot shake suddenly, stopped for a while, and a big knife pierced through the door and curtain from the front. At the same time, more than one person roared outside the car: "Guard! Guarantee!"

The big knife was retracted, and it was stabbed again in a different direction. Zhao Rang made a lightning strike when he saw the opportunity. He clasped his palms together, clamped the blade, pushed it out, and then dragged it in. The opponent was caught off guard and took the next move. Let him take advantage of the situation and increase his strength to take down the sword.

With the sharp knife in his hand, he kicked the door without hesitation and jumped out, the sword fell from the top, and the assassin who was blocked in front of the chariot immediately fell to the ground with a scream.

Li Lang was riding on a human-powered chariot, which was very recognizable. Zhao Rang slashed at his gap with another saber light, and glanced at the direction of the emperor's chariot. It was indeed the place with the largest number of assassins and the fiercest battle.

About half of the escorting Imperial Army was divided among the Empress Dowager and the Crown Prince who stayed at the Dachong’en Temple. In addition, Li Lang naturally disliked extravagant ostentation, and his etiquette was simple. Compared with assassins, they have no advantage at all.

But the emperor who was being protected joined the battle group recklessly, held a seven-foot long sword by himself, and used it like a dragon and a snake flying in the melee, showing great courage to risk his life.

Zhao Rang rushed to the emperor's place in a hurry, and his original plan to stay alive was wiped out by the two assassins who tried their best to obstruct him. The great waterfall, which fell straight down for nine days, poured down on the head of one of them.

The man was shocked, he raised his knife to block in panic, but how could he stop it?

After solving one, the other is no problem. Zhao Rang sent the assassin to Huangquan Road neatly. He didn't have time to look at the scattered corpses on the ground. He raised his breath and ran straight to Li Lang. He couldn't help but think in his heart. These assassins' swordsmanship and moves are eclectic, they are all like people in the world, and the mastermind behind them has such precise timing, could it be Haixuan?

Killing Li Lang is far from dredging the bottom line, on the contrary, there may be endless troubles. Zhao Rang was puzzled, but he didn't dare to slow down. He went to the side of the chariot and killed an assassin. Not knowing that there was a wind behind him, he instinctively dodged , narrowly avoiding the sudden stabbing sword by the leader of the imperial army.

"Leader Wei?" Zhao Rang frowned, and had to smile at Ren Yuwei, parrying his attack.

Wei Yixiao didn't stop in his hands, and it became more and more like a storm, and said coldly: "Zhao Rang, you are so bold!"

Zhao Rang didn't know why, so he was waiting to ask again, but Wei Yixiao and the assassins who were entwined like poisonous snakes didn't give him a little time to breathe. He had to deal with the assassins, but he couldn't be careless with Wei Yixiao, so his sword skills were naturally greatly reduced. Just as he was concentrating on it, he suddenly heard a loud shout: "Quiet!"

He was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly went dark, his figure was brought down by a strong force, and he slid a few feet away. He was the first to hear a few exclamations when he was dizzy: "Your Majesty!"

Then there were screams again and again, and someone from the forbidden army shouted hoarsely: "Guard! Beware of cold arrows!"

Zhao Rang only felt his body lighten. It was Li Lang who put his hands on the ground. He set himself up a little and then lay on his side beside Zhao Rang. The distance between the two of them was close enough to each other. Li Lang said in a low voice: "Don't get up, go to the chariot. Hide back."

"You..." At this moment, Zhao Rang noticed an arrow sticking out of Li Lang's left shoulder blade, took a sudden breath, and was speechless.

Li Lang waved his hand lightly at him to signal action, Zhao Rang quickly grabbed Li Lang and dragged him to the walking chariot.

Wei Yixiao has already arrived, he crossed the emperor, bowed his body and ran quickly, hiding in a place where arrows rarely come.

There is a dense forest on the left side of the official road, and the sudden cold arrows came from that direction, all the assassins of the imperial army fell to the ground, and the remaining imperial army could only huddle around the injured emperor, temporarily avoiding the sharp edge.

Zhao Rang only waited for the arrows to be a little sparse, then re-holding the sword steadily, picked up a copper shield from the imperial army, lowered his figure, rolled and rolled, and sneaked into the dense forest.
