Chapter 188 Another false edict

Wen Ruyu was immediately turned pale with anger.

He used to give orders in the military hall of the imperial court and was used to being aloof. Especially when the God of War was around, almost no one dared to offend the people in the military hall directly like this.

Now he was unreasonably rejected by a young goalkeeper, which made him particularly uncomfortable. He cursed several times angrily, but he had no choice but to turn around and discuss with Mai Tiezhang and others.

At this time, Yu Wendu, the general who Guo Wei'an had inserted into the Beida camp, came over from the west gate.

He told Wen Ruyu and Mai Tiezhang that there was a side gate in the northwest, and the guard was called Liang Yu, a brother he had a good relationship with in Beida Camp.

This person is definitely not Cao Yanchun's best friend. You can try from there.

Wen Chengyu and Mai Tiezhang were overjoyed and of course agreed.

It was immediately decided that Yu Wendu would lead his troops to take the lead, try to enter the city first, and Wen Chengyu would blend in. Then they would have a showdown with Liang Yu, occupy the side gate, and let the 30,000 forbidden troops from the southern camp enter.

Everyone nodded in agreement and acted according to the plan.

"Who is under the city?"

"Brother Liang Yu, I am Yuwendu. On the orders of General Feng, I will lead the team to enter from here and go to the imperial city."

"Oh, it's brother Yuwen. Didn't you go through the west gate with General Feng?

Why don't you go through the main door but through the side door?"

Liang Yu was less than thirty years old and in his prime. He was a playboy from an aristocratic family and had never really joined the army or fought in the frontier.

He joined the Imperial Guard as a servant very early and also learned some martial arts.

In the past, he was idle and did not live in a deep city. He liked to make friends, eat wine and visit brothels. He was known as the "fair-wine young man".

"Hurry up and open the city gate and let my good brother General Yuwen in."

Before Yu Wendu could fabricate a lie, Liang Yu allowed more than 4,000 people to enter the city smoothly without saying a word, and quietly occupied the key points at the city gate and controlled the intersection.

Although Liang Yu doesn't have a lot of eyesight, even a fool can understand this kind of trick.

"Brother Yuwen, you...what do you mean?" Liang Yu's face was ashen.

"Brother Liang Yu, let's be honest. I am on the side of the current crown prince. The Cao Mansion has forged an imperial edict and intends to rebel. This is the act of killing the nine clans. We cannot do it."

Of course Yuwendu couldn't hide anything anymore, he told everything.

"This is Mr. Wen, General of the General Staff of the Military Hall. He has transferred more than 30,000 forbidden troops from the South Camp with the Tiger Talisman."

Wen Ruyu took off her disguise, showed her gold and jade waist badge, and the Tiger Trooper Talisman, and said in a deep voice:

"General Liang, now is your chance to be promoted through meritorious service and to honor your ancestors. As long as you let General Mai's men enter the city, you will be the first to suppress the rebellion. I will strongly recommend you to the prince at that time."

This is what we have said, and the number of troops guarding the city gate is only about 300. In a real fight, it is not enough to fill the gap between the opponent's teeth.

"Hey, General Wen, I'm just a young man. It's the duty of a general to obey military orders when serving as a soldier. As for the court battle, he actually doesn't care about our affairs. I support you. It's just that the reinforcements from the Beida camp have also entered the city.

I'm just afraid of being discovered by them..."

Liang Yu didn't have any other skills, but he was very eloquent and had the ability to adapt to the changing circumstances.

"Don't worry, we forced you to open this city gate. If the two sides take action, you and your people can just sit back and watch."

Wen Ruyu is an old Jianghu, and he immediately guessed what Liang Yu was thinking.

If the prince's side wins, he will be a meritorious official by opening the city gates. Promotion and wealth will definitely be indispensable.

If the Cao Mansion wins, he said that he was coerced into opening the city gate. He is wrong but it is not a death penalty. At most, he will be demoted and his salary reduced.

"Okay then, I'll move my troops away, please do as you please." Liang Yu nodded in agreement.

In this way, Liang Yu moved his troops away and let Yuwendu's troops take over the city gate.

The city gate was wide open, and Mai Tiezhang led 30,000 South Camp forbidden troops to suddenly appear at the city gate, immediately alerting the patrolling North Camp sergeants.

"Shh..."

A loud arrow shot up into the sky, and the Beidaying Forbidden Army guarding the city and the South Camp Forbidden Army led by Wen Ruyu and Mai Tiezhang fought with each other.

However, the sergeants guarding the city gate, numbering only a few thousand in total, could not withstand the tens of thousands of South Camp forbidden troops entering the city, and were quickly defeated.

After entering the city, Wen Ruyu, Mai Tiezhang and others did not bother to pursue the defeated troops, but commanded their troops to attack Wangchun Pavilion.



Wangchun Pavilion.

Feng Youren and His Highness the Crown Prince both showed their cards, and the last layer of window paper was pierced, and the two sides were at war with each other.

Feng Youren asked the prince to step down on his own initiative and follow him to go to the emperor to plead guilty.

This is really a foolish dream, how can the prince submit to it?

He clearly knew it was a scam, but would it help if he told the truth?

It was useless to talk more, Feng Youren retreated to his own camp, but he did not dare to use force against the prince.

Although he was from the Cao Mansion and supported the Jin king in his fight for the crown prince, he was ultimately the general of the Jin Empire and prided himself on loyalty, filial piety and justice.

Acting according to orders is his bottom line; otherwise, it is rebellion.

Currently, the edict he is following is to "Qing Jun Side", forcing Yuan Zhi to step down and support Jin Wang Yuan Xuan to come to power.

The edict did not allow him to use force against Yuan Zhi or kill him.

While the two sides were confronting each other, the eunuch arrived outside with a message.

"General Feng accepted the order."

"The general is here." Feng Youren knelt down and kowtowed.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: The current prince Yuan Zhi deceives the king, is cruel and cruel, and harms hundreds of officials... I have decided to depose the prince Yuan Zhi, and immediately appoint the king of Jin Yuan Xuan as the prince of the country, and escort Yuan Zhi back to the country.

The clan government apologizes, and if there is any resistance, I will kill you without mercy. Thank you for this!"

"The general will accept the order and obey it." Feng Youren took the imperial edict with both hands, then raised his hands high and said loudly to Fan Hu and others:

"This is the holy decree, and I order this general to apprehend the deposed prince Yuan Zhi and escort him to the clan's residence to apologize. You must get out of the way and not interfere with the performance of my official duties. Otherwise, I will kill him without mercy."

Fan Hu heard this and said loudly:

"This is a fake edict. General Feng, don't even think about it. The emperor is currently lying in the Zichen Palace due to illness. He is guarded day and night by our Qianniu Guards. Now the palace is under martial law and not a single bird can fly out. Excuse me,

Why did the eunuch in the palace just send the imperial edict out of the palace in such a grand manner, and then came to find you specifically?"

Feng Youren was stunned. He was not without doubts in his heart.

But now, there is no turning back when I shoot my bow. Even if I am taken advantage of, I have no choice but to fight to the end.

If he hesitates, he will be a sinner on both sides. His own death will not count, and his family will be harmed.

"Don't talk nonsense and try to disrupt the audience. As a minister, the general only recognizes the emperor's edict and jade seal and carries out errands according to the imperial edict!" Feng Youren angrily scolded.

"General Feng, it's too late for you to turn back now. I think you were deceived by some people and you were just a gunman. Afterwards, I will never hold you accountable for your disobedience." Yuan Zhi also tried to persuade him.

"That's all, Prince. I will give you a cup of tea and count to fifty. Then you can go down to the attic and leave with my escort. Otherwise, I will offend you."

"One, two..."

Seeing that Feng Youren was determined to remain ignorant to the end, Yuan Zhi sighed and walked up to the attic room on the third floor.
