The atmosphere in the hall suddenly solidified.

Ding Yitu is obviously already making a fuss. The Rising Rift Escort Agency has a lot of people and Ding Yitu is even more a master. If he really wants to start, Kyoto Mansion can't get any advantage.

There are tension inside and outside the hall.

Tie Zheng's eyes were cold, and he stared at Ding Yitu, but suddenly he smiled. His smile was quite abrupt. Ding Yitu frowned and found that Tie Zheng had a wink with the middle-aged man. He felt a terrified in his heart. He knew something was wrong. The middle-aged man and Tie Zheng came to the Rising Escort Agency tonight, which was really strange.

At this moment, he heard a few screams from afar. Ding Yitu's body shook, and he stood up, his face looked horrified, and he said in absent voice: "Transfer the tiger away from the mountain!" He turned around and was about to leave, but Tie Zheng had already said sternly: "Ding Yitu, you have to go if you don't want to go tonight, where are you going?"

Ding Yitu said in a deep voice: "Come on, take them down!"

Bai Li had been waiting for Ding Yitu to issue orders. After hearing Ding Yitu's orders, he said in a deep voice: "Take them all down!" He was the first to rush out and reached out and grabbed Tiezheng.

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 took the opportunity to leave regardless of everyone's struggle.

His body was light, his feet were like wind, under the night, like a ghost, passing through the courtyard, suddenly saw two people lying in front of him, and he went forward, and saw that the escort was lying on the ground, and he was shocked. He knew that when he was entangled in the front hall, someone had already taken the opportunity to sneak into the escort agency.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of two long and one short bamboos coming from a distance. When I heard the sound of the bamboos, Ding Yitu changed color even more.

He runs an escort agency and walks through the Jianghu Road. He can naturally understand the secret codes in the Jianghu. The two long and one short sounds are the longest secret codes in the Jianghu. They mean to tell the people to retreat quickly.

Ding Yitu clenched his fists with his hands, and his feet were faster. The escort agency was not small and there were many courtyards. Not only did it have a warehouse, but also a stable, martial arts field, canteen and dormitory. Ding Yitu had a blue face and walked through two walls. Finally, he arrived outside a yard. He looked around and saw no one. Then he pushed the door and rushed into the courtyard. The escort agency was filled with firewood. It was the firewood room of the escort agency. There were hundreds of people in the escort agency, and there were many people eating every day. Therefore, the firewood room was huge, and the yard was almost full of chopped firewood. On weekdays, except for two servants, he would bring some firewood here, and almost no one stepped in.

Half of the above the woodshed is open air, and the other half is covered with a rain cloth. This is because of the concern that once it rains, the firewood will not be removed, but if it is covered with a rain cloth, it will be difficult to get the firewood thoroughly.

Ding Yitu saw that the courtyard was as special as before, and he let out a long sigh, suddenly realized something, and said in a lost voice: "Not good!" He turned around and looked at the gate of the courtyard, but saw a figure walking in from outside the courtyard. The figure was graceful and charming, and he was graceful when he walked around. He was wearing a night-hanging clothes and a facial scarf on his face. But even a blind man could tell that the person was a woman with an attractive figure.

"It seems that Mr. Ding's head is not that smart either!" The woman twisted her waist and walked in like a water snake, her voice captivating: "Xiao Shaozong has entrusted you with such an important task. It seems that he is stupider than you!"

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

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

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

"Report to the prince, it's already the ugly moment." Guihe said respectfully: "It's less than two hours away from the last hour!"

"Two hours!" Xiao Shaozong nodded slightly, thoughtful, and after a moment, he said: "General Qin!"

Qin Chong, the commander of the Xuanwu Camp, wearing gray armor, said respectfully: "The last general is here!"

"Look at the hour." Xiao Shaozong said: "After the Yin hour, don't let me give the order, you can attack the city directly!"

Qin Chong immediately said: "The last general obeys the order!"

"Prince, the general of the Imperial City requested to take the lead in siege!" Lu Xiaochao, the commander of the Tiger God Camp in black armor behind Xiao Shaozong, couldn't help but say: "The general of the Imperial City has already brought the weapons to siege. Here we have issued a military order. Within two hours, we will definitely break through the main gate of the Imperial City!"

Of course, the Tiger God Camp will not have heavy siege weapons. The so-called siege weapons are just some ladders that were tuned out of Hyoko.

Xiao Shaozong smiled and said, "No hurry, Commander Lu, there will always be a time when you make achievements. This headline will be handed over to the Xuanwu Camp of Commander Qin."

Lu Xiaochao was the nail that Xiao Shaozong had been buried in the Tiger God Camp. For many years, no one knew that Lu Xiaochao was actually a confidant of Xiao Shaozong. This time, Xue Lingfeng was killed, and Lu Xiaochao finally played a role that Xiao Shaozong had planned for a long time. He became the leader of the Tiger God Camp in one fell swoop, holding the three thousand elites of the Tiger God Camp in his hands.

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

After Qin Chong took office, although he had a purge on the Xuanwu Camp, the Xuanwu Camp was mixed with various forces from the beginning, and it was impossible to immediately eliminate such internal disputes in a short period of time. Compared with the pure Tiger God Camp, the Xuanwu Camp would not make Xiao Shaozong too relieved. The Xuanwu Camp required the Xuanwu Camp to attack the city, but in the future, the power of the Tiger God Camp would still be required to control the capital in the future. Therefore, Xiao Shaozong of course did not want the Tiger God Camp to suffer any losses in the siege.

Lu Xiaochao didn't dare to say much.

When he was here [ .], he saw several officials approaching. Xiao Shaozong glanced at him and saw that it was Dou Kui. He smiled and said, "Mr. Dou, thank you for your hard work today."

Tens of thousands of soldiers besieged the imperial city, and the matter was rushed. After that day, Dou Kui was responsible for the food supply, and Dou Kui did it very well, which made Xiao Shaozong very satisfied.

"Prince, this is the duty of the subordinates." Dou Kuiwei bent and said respectfully: "What is the prince's order? Please give me any orders at any time."

"You have done a good job." Xiao Shaozong said: "You are tired too, so you can go back and rest first."

"The officials are not tired." Dou Kui seemed to stop talking, as if he had something to say. Xiao Shaozong could tell at a glance, and smiled and said, "Does Lord Dou still have something to do?"

Dou Kui thought for a while before whispering: "Prince, the emperor was killed by the rebel Qi Ning. After the imperial city was broken, he naturally wanted to cut the rebel into pieces, but!" After hesitating for a moment, he looked at the other officials around him, and several officials looked at each other indifferently. Xiao Shaozong said gently: "What do you mean, but it's okay to say it."

"Prince, the country cannot be without a king for a day." Dou Kui said solemnly: "Since the emperor has passed away, the subordinate officials think that after the city is destroyed, the top priority is to have a new king ascend the throne, so that we can stabilize the bureau of our great Chu. The Qinhuai army fought on the front line. If there is no new king in charge at this time, it will not only be of no use to the country, but it may also lead to a disintegration of the morale of the front line. It may also bring great disasters."

"That's true." An official next to him said: "Prince, you are the bloodline of Emperor Taizu. Although the emperor has already married, he has not given birth to a prince. Naturally, there is no prince to succeed to the throne. Among the royal bloodline, only the prince is qualified to inherit the throne!"

Xiao Shaozong frowned and said, "The rebels have not been eliminated. Is it too early to discuss this matter at this time? Moreover, I only want to eliminate traitors for the country. As long as the successor king, I can always find it."

"Prince, this time in danger, only the prince stood up." Dou Kui said seriously: "The prince has the courage and ability to set the world. Lord Liang said it is not bad. The prince is the bloodline of Emperor Taizu. This successor, the prince cannot take on this important task unless the prince."

"Why did Lord Dou suddenly mention this?"

Dou Kui said: "A few of our officials discussed there just now. As court officials, they naturally had to plan for the country. Everyone was worried that after Qi Ning was wiped out, the capital would still be in peace. Therefore, everyone felt that the country could not be without a king for a day. In times of crisis, someone must stand up and take on the country." After a pause, he bowed and said: "The prince told everyone that the prince should inherit the throne. All officials also felt that the prince was the most suitable candidate. I was in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. If I want to perform the ritual of ascension, the Ministry of Revenue would have to allocate a sum of silver to raise money with the Ministry of Rites. It cannot be delayed at this time. Naturally, it is better to prepare early. Therefore, the official was preparing to discuss this matter with Yuan Shangshu. I wonder what the prince intended?"

Xiao Shaozong pondered for a moment before saying, "What does Old Shangshu Yuan mean?"

"The old Shangshu is old and is still resting for the time being, and has not been disturbed by him." Dou Kui whispered: "But except for some people with ulterior motives, most of the officials support the prince ascend the throne."

"Some people with ulterior motives?" Xiao Shaozong looked calm: "Who is Lord Dou talking about?"

"The group of people led by Lu Xiao." Dou Kui whispered: "Those people were gathered together and sneaked up, and I don't know what to discuss. We just talked about the prince's succession, but Lu Xiao said that after the city was broken, we would first welcome the queen to the palace. If who inherited the throne, he said that it was not time to discuss the matter." He sneered: "This person is not upright and has formed a clique with the Ministry of War for personal gain. The subordinate officials think they should check this person carefully."

Xiao Shaozong smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Lu is not wrong, but it is not the time to discuss the successor."

"Prince, except for the Ministry of War, officials of other departments support the prince very much." Dou Kui whispered: "The officials saw Hu Bowen, the Minister of Rites. When talking about this, looking at the Minister of Rites, it seems that he also felt that the prince should inherit the throne. Hu Bowen's status in the Ministry of Rites was second only to Mr. Yuan!" He lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Yuan is old and is afraid he will retire soon. After the Old Minister of Rites, Hu Bowen is most qualified to take over as the Minister of Rites. Since he supports the Prince, the entire Ministry of Rites will naturally support the prince."

"A special time to do extraordinary things." The Lord Liang said to the side: "Prince, at this extraordinary time, the officials thought that after breaking the city, they would immediately summon all civil and military officials to the Chengtian Palace. At that time, we would support the prince ascend the throne together, so as not to have too many dreams and cause other troubles."
