After Luo Ming and the others rushed out of the imperial city, it was already dawn.

Go back to Yanjun Yu's mansion first, wash off the blood stains in a hurry, change into clean clothes, and rush to the city gate.

They must leave the city as soon as the city gate is opened, otherwise, when there is chaos in the palace and news of Shi Hongsheng's assassination comes out, Xinyu City will be surrounded by martial law and no one is allowed to enter or leave the city at will, and it will be even more difficult to leave the city at that time .

When we arrived at the city gate, it was just dawn, and the city gate was already wide open. People who got up early to do small business were coming and going. They were scattered, so they were not so conspicuous. They left the city gate safely and found Dongli. At the place where three thousand soldiers were stationed, Luo Ming ordered to leave immediately and return to the east.

Shi Hongsheng kept the news of Luo Ming's capture secret, because he was afraid that the three thousand soldiers outside the city would forcefully attack the city and would fight him desperately.In the past few days, the [-] soldiers and horses have been orderly and quiet as usual, and no one knows that Luo Ming and others have been imprisoned.

This is not the time to talk about these things. The generals from Dongli came back, and the commander had a backbone. He immediately rectified the three armies, dressed lightly, and set off immediately.

Yan Junyu escorted him all the way, crossing the prefecture and the mansion saved a lot of trouble, and after a few more days, someone sent Yan Junyu a secret report, which read: "Shi Fangyi is rebellious, Shi Fangcheng is wearing a yellow robe, and he faces the south and proclaims himself emperor. .”

Yan Junyu had expected that Shifangcheng was so busy proclaiming himself emperor. He was so ambitious that he had been thinking about the throne for not a day or two.After Shifangcheng ascended the throne, the rest of the brothers also gathered their soldiers and horses, proclaimed themselves kings, and fought against Shifangcheng.

Shi Hongsheng died suddenly. Concubine Ma directly pointed out that the queen killed Shi Hongsheng, and there were several court ladies and eunuchs as circumstantial evidence.The queen's journey was smooth and smooth, and she became more and more arrogant. She was not calm and scheming, so how could she beat Ma Guifei's forbearance and scheming.A few intentional or unintentional provocations, the queen was moved into a thunderous fury, and she was speechless for a while, and she actually accepted the crime of killing the king and husband.

There is no reason to give it to you, let alone you admit it yourself.Concubine Ma got rid of the queen safely, supported the prince to ascend the throne, and sat on the throne of the queen mother.

In short, Beimang is completely in chaos. All the princes, you sing and I come on stage, and the chaos is turned upside down. Concubine Ma Gui secretly has the support of Yan Junyu, and her son is a righteous prince. , It can be regarded as an equal share with Shifang City, and the battle has started in Xinyu City.

Luo Ming couldn't help but lament Yan Junyu's clever tactics, while wooing Concubine Ma, and secretly communicating with Shi Fangcheng, he held both sides in his hands, but he didn't know who he was going to help in the end.

Jiang Nianbai brought up the edict, saying that Yan Junyu was just sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, no matter who wins or loses between Shi Fangcheng and Concubine Ma, when he took out the edict, there would be another bloody storm in Beimang.

The distance from Xinyu is getting farther and farther away, and everyone is gradually relieved. It seems that the border town has not received the news of Shi Hongsheng's violent death and the civil strife in the court. It is as peaceful and stable as ever. The people work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They were all relaxed, and when they saw Luo Ming and the others, they smiled and greeted each other, asking if the peace talks were going well.

The guard of the border city thought that the peace talks between the envoys from Dongli and Bei Mang were over, and that this was the way back. When he arrived, he took Luo Ming and others into Bei Mang, and when he left, he sent Luo Ming out of the border gate. The guard is a real person , has always been cheerful, and said that the two countries have good relations, and there will be no more wars on the border, so I can be able to retire in this job.

Leaving Beimang safely, and walking a short distance, is the Yulong Pass.

Yan Junyu reined in the horse, "I won't give it away anymore!"

Luo Ming nodded, "If you want soldiers and horses, please send a message, and I will send troops immediately to help you seize the throne!"

Yan Junyu smiled and said, "Are you so relieved of me? You still have to sign a paperwork contract in Shifang City. When you get to me, why don't you just say you can help me?"

Luo Ming glanced at Jiang Nianbai who was standing not far away, and said with a smile: "Zhongqing is in my palm, you can still fly to the sky with your fluttering?"

Yan Junyu was speechless, staring at Jiang Nianbai, just thinking of taking another look.

Jiang Nianbai didn't look back from the beginning to the end, and kept his back to Yan Junyu, staring at the big tree in front of him in a daze.The eyes behind him were burning and affectionate, Yan Junyu didn't hide his love for him at all, staring at Jiang Nianbai like a light on his back, his mind was in a mess.

Liu Yan persuaded him: "It's good to say something in the past!"

Jiang Nianbai laughed miserably: "What can I say? I can't bear him, or can I leave everything in Dongli behind and go with him? Why bother? Isn't it good? The mountains are high and the water is far away. When we never see each other again, he will be his." The emperor of Beimang, I will be my chief assistant of Dongli..."

Seeing Jiang Nianbai's miserable face and choked up voice, Liu Yan couldn't help but shook his head and didn't say anything else.

Yan Junyu turned his horse back, and said to Luo Ming, "Treasure!" The two said goodbye with a smile.

It's not safe here, Luo Ming ordered to speed up, and the three armies rushed to pass through Yulong Pass as soon as possible and return to Taipingling.

Shen Bohai received the news and greeted him early. Seeing Luo Ming and the others, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He returned to Taiping Ridge and rested for two days. Luo Ming didn't dare to delay any longer and rushed to the capital without stopping. .

There was chaos in Dongli and Beijing.

Emperor Tianqing thought his son was sick, and he couldn't afford it, and Luo Ming was not in the court. The fourth prince colluded with the eldest prince, and together with Liu Pei, he had been controlling the government for many days.

Shifang City has already taken care of itself in the fight for the throne, how can it control whether Liu Pei, who is far away in the east, is dead or alive.Many parties could not be contacted, Liu Pei was very anxious, he had lost his last bargaining chip, waiting for Beimang to break through Dongli, he saw that it was nothing but nothing, it was impossible.On the way Luo Ming went to Taiping Ridge, he sent someone to intercept and kill Luo Ming. Once the Zhantianshu left and never came back, Liu Pei knew that something was wrong. If Luo Ming came back from Beimang safely, the first thing he would do was , I'm afraid it's after the autumn to settle accounts and get rid of this thorn in my side.

Liu Pei discussed with the eldest prince for a long time, and finally decided to cooperate with the Marquis of Taiping and the fourth prince. Taking advantage of Luo Ping's serious illness and unable to manage the government, first let the queen out, stabilize the situation in the inner palace, and then eliminate the alien party, and dare to raise the issue in the court. Anyone who disagrees will be killed without edict.If it weren't for the conflict between the two parties on the issue of ascension to the throne, the Dongli country at this time may have changed color and changed hands.

Luo Ming could not sit still for a moment after listening to Shen Bohai's talk about all kinds of changes after he went to Beimang.These people are insane, and there is no guarantee that they will not harm Luo Ping secretly.If Emperor Tianqing made a mistake, he would definitely crush Luo Jun and Luo Zheng to ashes.

With three thousand soldiers and horses, he hurried all the way to the capital, while secretly sending someone to contact Liu Ziqi to inquire about the current situation in the capital.

Luo Ming was not around, Emperor Tianqing was seriously ill, the eldest prince and the fourth prince represented the government, and the officials in the court were replaced by Liu Pei and Taiping. Many of them were reappointed by Liu Pei, the cabinet that Luo Ming worked so hard to create was abandoned, and among the several palace scholars, except for Jiang Nianbai, one was killed and one was demoted, and the other two were also convicted because they were dissatisfied with Liu Pei's perverse actions. jail.

The court had already been controlled by Liu Pei, and none of the officials dared to say "no". All major and minor matters were discussed by Tai Pinghou and Liu Pei, and it was only a matter of one sentence to kill anyone.

As a veteran of the two dynasties, Liu Ziqi was also among the three princes, and no one dared to touch him for a while, but he, Ma Shizhan, Mi Deyuan and other officials who were close to Luo Ming were all suppressed by Liu Pei and dismissed from office. Dismissal, resignation and return to their hometowns, all kinds of means forced a group of people to almost a dead end.Luo Ming's life and death in Beimang Kingdom was unknown, and the people had no one to take the lead, they could only watch Liu Pei and Tai Ping Hou shouting at the court every day, and they didn't dare to confront him head-on.

Liu Ziqi received a secret report from Luo Ming, jumped up against the crime, and laughed loudly: "That's great!"

Immediately wrote a secret letter, handed it to Zhuifeng, and said: "The 30 troops in the Northwest Army Camp, obey Prince Jing's orders!"

When Luo Ming received the secret letter, a big stone fell from his heart.

Liu Ziqi's letter stated that Luo Ping was fine, they coerced the emperor to order the princes, and the daily memorials and other things had to be sealed by Emperor Tianqing's Zhu Zhu, so they did not treat Luo Ping harshly. Luo Ping was in poor health and missed him every day. Luo Ming, weeping all day long, gradually weakened and became bedridden.

The Empress went to the Kangqian Palace every day to treat her illness, and Liu Jun thought that Luo Ping didn't see her to stop her. With the lessons learned from the past, how could Liu Jun dare to let the Empress get close to Luo Ping again? In order not to let the queen see.

After all, I still didn't want to tear my face apart, and the queen didn't dare to be too blatant. After all, there were Concubine Xu Guifei and other concubines in the harem, and after a few attempts to force her way to no avail, the queen devoted herself to the matter of the fourth prince's ascension to the throne, and did not go to Kangxi again. The dry palace is noisy.

The Taiping Hou was so rich as to rival a country, and he had also bought off many gangsters in these years, and the mob gathered together, at least tens of thousands of people.The queen met her father and brother several times and asked them to help the fourth prince to ascend the throne first, so that if Luo Ming came back one day, the uncooked rice had already become cooked rice. Infamy, if the name is not right and the words are not right, you will suffer in principle.

Taiping Hou discussed with Bai Yunqing, logically the queen's idea is the most effective at the moment, and it is also a magic weapon that can quickly get rid of the first prince and Liu Pei. Infect the government and the public, kill all Liu Pei's party feathers, and change a group of officials.

Bai Yunqing sneered and said nothing, and asked his father after a while, "Did father just want to be a marquis all his life?"

Taiping Hou was puzzled, Bai Yunqing said: "The emperor takes turns to do it, this year come to my house!"

Tai Pinghou was shocked, and after thinking about it, his mind was a little active. Now that he is in such a mess, this is not impossible, so he can't help but plan carefully with Bai Yunqing again, intending to set aside the queen and the fourth prince, and establish himself as emperor.

The queen didn't know about her father and brother's treachery, she only hoped that they could help her son ascend the throne, and every time she had a good dream, she couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.

In this way, each had their own plans and schemes, and the Dongli court became more and more precarious and chaotic.
