The flames in the palace rose up and soon turned most of Chang'an City into red.

Countless people lay on the windowsill of their homes tremblingly, looking at the fireplace, their eyes were dull and unable to speak.

The rebels outside Jianzhang Palace were cheering and excited.

The fire will surely attract the attention of the defenders and thus create favorable conditions for their attack!

So everyone was happy and encouraged, only Prince Liu Ju, with a trace of sadness and melancholy flashing in his eyes, but it soon disappeared.

"Enter the palace!" Liu Ju pulled out the sword around his waist: "The palace of Huoqi, this destiny is in Gu. You are working together to reward him on the day of success!"

So, taking advantage of the favorable time when the fire broke out and the defenders were in chaos.

The rebels launched a powerful attack against Jianzhang Palace for the first time!

In the first wave alone, there were 1,500 armored soldiers and more than 2,000 retainers and diners, carrying ladders and torches, swarming towards the palace city.

While attacking, they shouted loudly: "The traitors threaten the king and father, frame the prince, and disrupt the country and the country. Why do you help the evildoer? Now Weiyang is on fire, and this is the destiny of the prince! Why don't you help the prince and assist the prince?"

The shouts of thousands of people instantly made the guards of Jianzhang Palace shake their minds.

Without knowing what happened to the Weiyang Palace, some defenders began to retreat and began to avoid war.

What's even more terrible is that the Guanglu doctor Jin Il-jeong, who originally in charge of the defense of the palace, took his personal guards and went to the Weiyang Palace. The temporary commander, Zhao Chongguo, was not well-known and had little power in the defenders.

This son-in-law, the prince-in-law, could only strive to maintain the order of the main tower of the Beique.

And the other flanking towers and gates were simply unable to take into account.

So, when the rebels began to attack the city, countless ladders were placed on the city tower.

In the darkness, there were sounds of shouting from afar.

Finally someone began to be unable to withstand the pressure.

At one moment, a sudden cheer sounded under the city wall: "The palace gate is open!"

Prince Liu Ju looked over excitedly when he heard the sound.

But I saw a palace gate open under the dark city wall in the distance.

Although it is just a side door, a narrow side door.

But he still waved his fist hard and said excitedly: "Success is now!"

Liu Ju immediately ordered: "Order people to open the city gate, Xiaoyu's entire army!"

"promise!"

So the rebels immediately changed the content of the shouting.

"The palace gate has been opened, and the righteous and loyal ministers, who are favored by the Han people, why don't you come and surrender quickly?!"

The defense of Jianzhang Palace Palace, which was originally indestructible and even infallible, completely collapsed.

In just two quarters of an hour, a large number of defenders opened the city gate, or gave up defense, collapsed and fled.

Many loyal officers, as they watched the palace doors open, raised their swords and committed suicide in despair.

The remaining people, led by Zhao Chongguo, hurriedly retreated towards the Yutang Palace with the remaining army that was still loyal to the emperor.

However, by this time, fundamental changes have taken place between the power between the rebels and Jianzhang Palace.

Before, the rebels were just about the same number as the Jianzhanggong Guardian in terms of number, and were even at a disadvantage.

But now, when Liu Ju, surrounded by his ministers, waited for the famous Phoenix Palace in the northern palace of Weiyang Palace and looked at the entire Chang'an City.

He already had at least two thousand imperial guards following him.

Moreover, there were a steady stream of imperial guards and the Guardian defenders who came to surrender.

More importantly, Liu Ju can now send people to Changle Palace and transfer the Queen's Guards and the Palace City Guards to the present, now he has the advantage. As long as he orders, the army of Changle Palace will not be afraid of coming.

In this way, he had the advantage over his father for the first time.

"Father!" Liu Ju looked at the palace in the darkness in the distance: "My son is now bringing troops into the palace. I wonder if you would like to see it?"

He knew that he was only one step away from victory.

Just lead troops to the Yutang Hall and defeat the defenders outside the Yutang Hall.

Then, even if his father still has a large number of elite troops, he can still compete with him.

But the battle and coup are over.

As long as the Jade Hall is surrounded, even if it is just symbolic.

All will be passed on to everyone a clear message that the winner has been decided.

Even though his father was unwilling to admit defeat, he had to admit defeat.

otherwise……

The fate of Qi Heng and King Wuling of Zhao is his future!

As for other ministers?

Of course, they would line up to persuade him to enter.

However, Liu Ju still felt uneasy.

He turned his head and looked at the direction of the arsenal in Chang'an City, where Yingyang's army stationed troops.

"Is there any abnormal movement in the arsenal?" Liu Ji asked the person beside him.

"Report to Your Highness, there is no movement in the arsenal..." Zhou Yan, the prince's wife who was specifically responsible for conveying information and information for Liu Ju, immediately answered.

"That's wrong!" Liu Ji frowned.

"Your Highness, why are you worried about Zhang Zizhong?" Kong Anguo took advantage of the situation beside Liu Ju: "As long as you come to the emperor's imperial court, then no matter how powerful Zhang Zizhong is, he will be exempted from apology and be punished..."

The others also nodded and agreed.

Isn't this what happened since ancient times?

No matter how powerful a general or a powerful minister is, he is always a lamb to be slaughtered in front of the monarch.

This is true for Bai Qi of Qin, Meng Tian, ​​Li Mu of Zhao, Han Xin of Han, and Zhou Yafu of Han.

Could it be that Zhang Zizhong is different?

Can he still dare to rebel blatantly?

impossible!

Everyone is full of confidence.

Everyone's faces were filled with arrogant smiles.

The fruits of victory are already close.

Everyone is immersed in the dream of seizing power with all their strength.

Only Liu Ju was filled with uneasiness.

But, he said, "What's wrong with not coming?"

The ministers all said that Zhang Zizhong would not be able to resist. Moreover, since things have come to this point, even if Yingyang's army comes to Jianzhang Palace now, they will be unable to turn things around.

Because he could immediately reach the Yutang Palace, then clear the emperor's side, and then there would be a lot of people in the dynasty, and the prosperous times were expected!

…………………………

arsenal.

Zhang Yue gently took a child from Xu Xiangru who was sleeping very sweetly in his cradle.

"A true wise grandson!" Zhang Yue looked at the child in his arms and laughed: "We must prosper the country and prosper the country!"

He raised the sleeping child, faced his generals, and said seriously: "This is the prince of the grandson!"

He held the child and walked to the generals, showing him to everyone, so that everyone could remember his appearance.

"There is a fire in the palace today. If the emperor and grandson are unfortunate, the prince should worship the ancestral temple to restoration in the world!"

"Come!"

"You all, please pay homage to the young master together!"

So, under the leadership of Zhang Yue, hundreds of Yingyang generals and officials respectfully knelt down respectfully and paid a visit to the great-grandson who was less than two years old: "I will pay homage to His Highness, the great-grandson!"

After the ceremony, Zhang Yue handed the child carefully to Xu Xiangru and instructed: "This is the foundation of the country! Be sure to serve carefully and carefully!"

Then he turned his head and looked at the other side, and smiled and said, "Go and invite the envoy to come!"
Chapter completed!
