A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1407

[Chapter 1396 Support]

The atmosphere in the hall immediately froze.

Ding Yitu has obviously turned his face. There are many people in this Rising Sun Escort, and Ding Yitu is even more of a master. If he really wants to make a move, the Kyoto Prefecture can’t get any advantage at all.

There was tension inside and outside the hall.

Tie Zheng’s eyes were cold as he stared at Ding Yitu, but suddenly he laughed. His smile was quite abrupt. Ding Yitu frowned and found that Tie Zheng had a wink with the middle-aged man, and his heart froze. , I know that something is wrong. Tonight, the middle-aged man and Tie Zheng came to the Rising Sun Escort one after another. It was really strange.

At this moment, he heard a few screams in the distance, Ding Yitu’s body was shocked, he stood up, his face showed horror, and he lost his voice: “Tiaohu Lishan!” Turning to leave, Tie Zheng has already He said sharply: “Ding Yitu, if you don’t want to go tonight, you have to go, where are you going?”

Ding Yitu said solemnly: “come here, take them down!”

Bai Li had been waiting for Ding Yitu to issue orders. , Hearing Ding Yitu’s order, he said solemnly: “Take them all down!” He was the first to rush out, reaching for Tie Zheng.

He knew that the people in Kyoto Prefecture were led by Tie Zheng, and as long as Tie Zheng was captured, the people in Kyoto Prefecture would not dare to act rashly.

Ding Yitu, however, took the opportunity to leave regardless of the struggles of the crowd.

His movements are light, his feet are like the wind, and under the night, he is like a ghost, walking through the courtyard, suddenly seeing two people lying in front of him, he stepped forward, and he was shocked to see that the one who fell on the ground was the escort in the security bureau. , Knowing that when they were entangled in the front hall, someone had already taken the opportunity to sneak into the escort bureau.

Suddenly I heard the sound of two long and one short bamboo chirping in the distance, and Ding Yitu changed color even more when he heard the bamboo chirping.

He runs the escort bureau, and he walks the Jianghu Road. The secret codes on the rivers and lakes are naturally understandable. The two long and one short voices are the most common secret codes in the rivers and lakes, which means to tell things to retreat quickly.

Ding Yitu clenched his fists with both hands and stepped faster. This escort is not small, and there are many courtyards. Not only are there warehouses, but also stables, martial arts halls, dining halls and dormitories are not small

. The fence, I finally got to a yard. I looked around, and there was no one. Then I pushed the door and rushed into the yard. The yard was full of firewood. It was the firewood room of the escort bureau. There are a lot of people eating every day, so the firewood house is huge, and the yard is almost full of chopped firewood. On weekdays, except for two handymen who will come here to carry some firewood, almost no one steps in.

Half of the sky above the firewood house is open air, and the other half is covered by a rain cloth. This is also a concern that once the rain gets wet, the firewood will not be available for dismantling.

Ding Yitu saw that the courtyard was the same as before, and there was nothing special about it. He let out a long sigh of relief, suddenly realized something, and lost his voice: “Not good…!” Looking over, I saw a figure walking in from outside the courtyard. The figure was slender and moving, and it was graceful when walking. He was wearing night clothes, and his face was covered with a face towel. Even the blind can see it, but the person who comes is a figure. seductive woman.

“It seems that Director Ding’s head is not that smart!” The woman twisted her waist and walked in like a water snake, her voice seductive: “Xiao Shaozong entrusted such a heavy responsibility to you, it seems that he is more stupid than you!”

Huangcheng Below, Xiao Shaozong carried his hands on his back, looked up at the night sky, and did not speak for a long time.

He is short in stature, but in this square of thousands of people, no one can ignore his existence.

After a long time, he lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something, and suddenly asked, “What time is it now?

” ”

Two hours…!” Xiao Shaozong nodded slightly, thoughtfully, and after a while, he said, “Commander Qin!”

Qin Zhong, the commander of the Xuanwu battalion in gray armor, respectfully said: “The end is here!”

“You look at the time.” Xiao Shaozong said: “Once the Yin Shi is over, don’t give the king’s order, you directly attack the city!”

Qin Zhong immediately Said: “The last commander obeys the order!”

“My lord, the last commander asks to be the first to attack the city!” Lu Xiaochao, the commander of the Tiger God Battalion in black armor behind Xiao Shaozong, couldn’t help but said, “The last commander has already sent a siege weapon to the city, so here it is. Issue a military order, and within two hours, the main gate of the imperial city will be breached!”

Of course, the Tiger God Camp will not have heavy siege weapons, the so-called siege weapons are just some cloud ladders transferred from the armory.

Xiao Shaozong said with a smile: “Don’t worry, Commander Lu, there will always be times when you will make great achievements. This formation will still be handed over to Commander Qin’s Xuanwu Camp.” Lu

Xiaochao is Xiao Shaozong’s nail that has been buried in Tiger God’s Camp. No one has known it for many years. Lu Xiaochao was in fact Xiao Shaozong’s cronies. This time Xue Lingfeng was killed, Lu Xiaochao finally played the role Xiao Shaozong had planned for a long time.

Xiao Shaozong knew very well that with Lu Xiaochao in charge, Tiger God Camp was a trump card in his hand.

After Qin Zhong took office, although the Xuanwu Camp has been cleaned up, the Xuanwu Camp has been mixed with various forces from the beginning, and it is impossible to immediately eliminate this kind of internal disputes in a short time. Compared with the pure Tiger God Camp, Xuanwu battalion will not make Xiao Shaozong too at ease. The siege of the city requires the Xuanwu battalion, but to control the capital in the future, it still needs the power of the Tiger God Battalion, so Xiao Shaozong certainly does not want the Tiger God Battalion to be damaged in the battle of the siege.

Lu Xiaochao didn’t dare to say more.

At this moment, he saw several officials approaching, Xiao Shaozong glanced at it, saw Dou Kui, and said with a smile: “Master Dou, it was hard for you today.”

Tens of thousands of troops besieged the imperial city, and things started in a hurry. After this day, Dou Kui was responsible for the food supply, and Dou Kui did a good job, which made Xiao Shaozong very satisfied.

“My lord, this is a matter within the rank of a lower official.” Dou Kui bowed his body slightly, and said respectfully, “If your lord has any dispatch, you can order it at any time.”

“You have done a good job.” Xiao Shaozong said, “You are also tired. Now, you can go back and rest first.”

“I’m not tired.” Dou Kui seemed to have something to say, but Xiao Shaozong could see it at a glance, and smiled, “Is there anything else, Master Dou?

” Kui thought for a while, and then said softly: “My lord, the emperor was killed by the traitor Qi Ning. After the imperial city was overrun, the traitor would naturally be slashed with a thousand swords, but…!” He hesitated. Looking at the other officials around him, several officials also looked at each other, Xiao Shaozong said gently: “If you have something to say, it’s okay to say it.”

“My lord, the country cannot live without a ruler for a day.” Dou Kui said solemnly: “Since the emperor has passed away, The lower officials thought that after breaking the city and producing traitors, the most important thing is to have a new monarch to ascend the throne, so as to stabilize the court situation of our great Chu. The Qinhuai army is fighting on the front line, if there is no new monarch at this time, not only Yu Guo It’s useless, and it is likely to lead to the disintegration of the troops on the front line, and maybe it will bring… a great disaster.”

“That’s right.” An official next to him said: “My lord, you are the great ancestor. The emperor’s bloodline, although the emperor has already married, but has not given birth to a prince, naturally no prince can succeed the throne, and only the prince is qualified to inherit the throne in the blood of the royal family…!”

Xiao Shaozong frowned: “Treason The thief has not been eliminated, is it too early to discuss this matter at this time? And this king only wants to hoe for the country, and if the successor is the king, he will always be able to find it.”

“My lord, at this time of crisis, only the lord will stand up.

Come out.” Dou Kui said sternly: “The lord has the vigor and ability to determine the world, and what Mr. Liang said is not bad. The lord is the direct bloodline of the Emperor Taizu, and the successor is not the lord who can’t take on this important task.”

“Why did Mr. Dou suddenly mention this?”

Dou Kui said: “Just now, many of our officials were discussing there. As courtiers, we naturally want to do things for the country. Everyone is also worried that after Qi Ning is destroyed, the capital will still not be allowed. Peace and tranquility, so everyone feels that a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and in times of crisis, someone must step up and take up the responsibility of the country.” After a pause, he cupped his hands and said, “Xiaguan told everyone that the prince should inherit the throne. , all the officials also feel that the prince is the most suitable candidate. The minister is in charge of the Ministry of Household, and if the ceremony of enthronement is to be performed, the Ministry of Household must allocate a sum of money to raise this matter with the Ministry of Rites. It cannot be delayed at this time, so it is natural to do it early. It’s better to be prepared, so… the lower official is going to discuss this matter with Yuan Shangshu, I don’t know what the lord wants?”

Xiao Shaozong pondered for a while, and then said: “What does Yuan Lao Shangshu mean?”

“Old Shangshu is already old .

Gao, I’m still resting for the time being, and I didn’t bother you.” Dou Kui said in a low voice, “But except for some people with ulterior motives, most of the officials support the prince

‘s enthronement.” “A few people with ulterior motives?” Xiao Shaozong looked calm: “Dou Who are the adults talking about?”

“The group headed by Lu Xiao.” Dou Kui said in a low voice, “That group of people are still gathering together just now, and they don’t know what they are discussing. We just talked about the prince. As for the succession, Lu Xiao said that after the city is broken, he will first welcome the empress into the palace, and whoever inherits the throne, he said that it is not yet time to discuss the matter.” He sneered: “This person is not righteous, He has formed a party with a member of the Ministry of War for personal gain, and the lower officials feel that they should check this person carefully.”

Xiao Shaozong smiled lightly, and UU read www.sonicmtl.com said: “Master Lu is not wrong, but this is not the time to discuss the successor king. .”

“My lord, except for the Ministry of War, officials from other ministries are very supportive of the lord.” Dou Kui said softly, “I only saw Hu Bowen, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, when the official came down. Speaking of this, looking at Hu Shilang’s meaning, he seems to think that the prince should come. Inheriting the throne, this Hu Bowen’s position in the Ministry of Rites is second only to Yuan Lao Shangshu…!” He lowered his voice and said, “Yuan Lao Shangshu is very old, I am afraid that he will soon be appointed to office. After Lao Shangshu is appointed, Hu Bowen will He is the most qualified to take over the position of Minister of Rites. Since he supports the prince, then the entire Ministry of Rites will naturally support the prince.”

“In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things.” Mr. Liang on the side said: “My lord, at this extraordinary time, The next official thought that after the city was broken, he would immediately summon the civil and military officials to enter the Chengtian Hall, and then we and others would support the prince to ascend the throne together, so as not to have too many dreams at night and cause other troubles.”

Dou Kui immediately said: “What Mr. Liang said is very true, At that time, if anyone dares to object, it is with ulterior motives, and even Qi Ning’s comrades can be detained and imprisoned on the spot!” There was a fierce look in his eyes.
