The best ring

If Zhao Lun had previously thought of relying on Liu Fei's troops to defend Yanyang City and waiting for reinforcements to arrive, now he no longer has this idea at all.

There is no way Yanyang City can be defended!

As the emperor, as long as the rebels attack the city, the target will definitely be him. Others may be able to surrender. Those ministers and generals can surrender. Not only can they save their lives, but they can even keep their official positions.

But he can't!

It is absolutely impossible for the rebels to spare his life. Once the rebels enter the city, he will definitely be the first person to be killed!

Although there are still some government officials in the city and even Imperial Guard soldiers in the palace, these people cannot give Zhao Lun any sense of security. Zhao Lun does not believe that they can withstand the rebel attack, or even believe that these people will be at a huge disadvantage. Fight for yourself.

He doesn't trust anyone now!

No, I can't just sit here and wait to die!

Zhao Lun doesn't want to die yet, he hasn't lived enough yet!

And if you want to survive, you can no longer stay in the imperial capital. It is no longer safe here.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lun made a decision:

Leave the imperial capital!

Not a moment can be lost!

Only by leaving the imperial capital can you save your life.

As for what it will be like after he leaves and is occupied by rebels, that is not something he has to consider.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lun immediately said to the eunuch: "Let Hou Zhong come to see me!"

Although Zhao Lun had made up his mind to leave, it was impossible for Zhao Lun to leave alone like Zhao Xuan did before. He still had to bring someone to protect his safety.

Hou Zhong was the one he chose. As for the commander of the Royal Forest Army, Zhao Lun did not trust him. After all, the two had had some unpleasantness before, and Zhao Lun had originally planned to replace the commander of the Royal Forest Army after stabilizing the situation. , but it’s just that we haven’t had time to start yet.

Hou Zhong is different. In Zhao Lun's opinion, Hou Zhong took the initiative to seek refuge with him and even killed Zhao Xuan with his own hands. This is worthy of his trust. Therefore, when he wants to escape from the imperial capital now, the first thing he thinks of is Taking Hou Zhong with him, who was strong and loyal to him, was the most suitable target.

Soon, Hou Zhong arrived.

"Greetings to Your Majesty." Hou Zhong saluted Zhao Lun very respectfully. On the surface, nothing could be seen, but in his heart, Hou Zhong was still straight.

After all, he did not kill Zhao Xuan. Zhao Xuan did not die, but escaped. If Zhao Lun knew about this, I am afraid he would not let him go. Therefore, after hearing that Zhao Lun wanted to see him When he came, he was still a little nervous, but he had to come.

"Get up." Zhao Lun said with a solemn face: "Hou Zhong, I will promote you to Minister of War now. From now on, all the troops in the city will be under your control. You should go out immediately to gather all the troops that can be assembled, and then come to the palace. Satomi, remember, you must be quick, no more than an hour!"

Hearing Zhao Lun's words, Hou Zhong was surprised and happy.

Are you now promoted to Minister of War?

Although Hou Zhong's previous status was not low, in formal occasions, his identity was still somewhat obscure and shady. Naturally, he was also spying on the position of the six ministers. When he surrendered to Zhao Lun, he also thought After that, he will use his means to seize one of the positions.

But Hou Zhong did not expect that Zhao Lun would promote him to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War so quickly, which naturally surprised him.

Of course, Hou Zhong was not stupid, and was even very smart. After the surprise, he realized that something must have happened, and it was a big thing. Otherwise, Zhao Lun would not suddenly promote himself to be the Minister of War. At the same time, Zhao Lun's expression would not be as solemn as it is now.

"Your Majesty, has something happened?" Hou Zhong asked tentatively.

At this time, Zhao Lun had regarded Hou Zhong as his confidant, and did not hide anything from Zhao Lun. He said directly: "The defeated troops outside the city have been absorbed by the rebels in the southern city. I sent Liu Fei to chase them. But that loser Liu Fei failed. Now there are not many troops in the city. Once the rebels from the southern city come, the remaining people will not be able to defend the imperial capital at all. Therefore, I plan to leave the imperial capital first to avoid danger temporarily and wait. I gathered the troops from other cities and fought back."

Zhao Lun's words shocked Hou Zhong: "Is this true?"

Obviously, this situation was far beyond Hou Zhong's expectation.

Why did the army outside the city suddenly surrender to the rebels? How is this possible? Why was there no news at all before?

Also, didn't Liu Fei's army just leave the city? Is this a defeat? This is too fast.

If this information had not come from Zhao Lun's mouth, Hou Zhong would not have believed it anyway, but now, he had to believe it.

"These are all true." Zhao Lun said solemnly: "There is no time, you go and gather the team now!" ŴŴŴ.BiQuPai.Com

Although almost all the troops in the city were taken away by Liu Fei, some were still left. Now for Zhao Lun, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. Having more people around him will make him feel more at ease.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hou Zhong said, "Do you want the Royal Forest Army to gather as well?"

"No!" Zhao Lun refused decisively: "They are not worthy of trust."

Hou Dian nodded without saying anything else. After saluting Zhao Lun, he withdrew.

If what Zhao Lun said is true, then there is indeed not much time left. The rebels in the southern city would attack the imperial capital at any time. Now that more than 100,000 troops have joined, the rebels in the southern city are afraid. I can't wait any longer.

After leaving the palace, Hou Zhong slowly calmed down. He thought about everything and understood one thing:

Now, it is an opportunity for him!

It is obvious that Zhao Lun does not trust others at all now. He is one of the few people he can trust. Once Zhao Lun survives the danger, he will surely rise to prominence. The Minister of War may be just the beginning. There will be titles and fiefdoms in the future! That is the ultimate goal.

He wants to use this opportunity to become the most powerful person in the court of Yanfeng Kingdom!

At that time, even Zhao Lun can be ignored by him!

As for whether Zhao Lun can survive the danger, Hou Zhong is not very worried. As Zhao Lun said, there are still many armies loyal to the royal family in other cities. As long as those armies are gathered together, they can still fight back again.

When they fight back again, the rebels will be destroyed, and it will be the time for Hou Zhong to become a high-ranking official!

Thinking of this, Hou Zhong was very excited, and his steps could not help but speed up a bit.

At the same time, Zhao Lun was also busy in the palace. He asked his concubine to pack up and take everything that could be taken. In this respect, he was obviously different from Zhao Xuan.
