The first thousand four hundred and thirty-four chapters, a battle tonight, no loss
Also confused are the Eight Great Vajra and others from Zhechong Mansion in Taizhou.
They originally said they were coming to rescue the emperor.
But the news they got was that they were holding back.
Seeing that Ma Zhiyuan and the others are about to take action against the emperor, they are standing still?
So what's the point of them coming here?
Li Ruoshuang also didn't understand why Zhao Chen would make such a decision, but she just followed Zhao Chen's order and asked the soldiers of Taizhou Zhechong Mansion to stay outside the city and wait.
The sound of wind in the city seems to be getting closer and closer.
On September 18th, in the city of Qixian, there were very few people on the streets.
There were patrolling soldiers and government officials everywhere.
People in Qi County hid in their homes. Although they didn't see anything, they could feel that something big was going to happen in Qi County.
All the inns in Qixian County were also closed, and some timid innkeepers even blocked the doors with wooden heads.
People throughout Qixian County are in panic, and the streets are in a state of depression.
At night, strong winds blew in Qixian County, and the sky seemed to be falling.
Ma Zhiyuan is sitting in the Qixian County Government Office, where today he will direct the battle to capture the emperor.
Lu Yifa and Huang Duwei of Zhe Chong Mansion sat on his left and right sides.
A group of officials from Qixian County, big and small, stood on both sides.
"Do you know what we are going to do today?" Ma Zhiyuan glanced at the large and small Qi county officials in front of him.
No one said anything, or many of them didn't know what Ma Zhiyuan wanted them to do today!
"The emperor's stupidity caused the people of Qizhou to riot. Now I, Ma Zhiyuan, must obey the will of God and the people's will and kill the emperor in Qi County."
"In order to wait for the Mingjun of Chang'an to succeed to the throne, we can also restore peace to the people of Qixian County." Ma Zhiyuan said such incomprehensible words, which really made many Qixian County officials unable to react.
"Lord Governor, are you planning to commit regicide and rebel?" An official was cautious but seemed extremely nervous.
The word rebellion is extremely unfamiliar to them.
This is something they never dare to think about in their lifetime.
But right now, it seems...
"Yes, there are adults in Chang'an who are already waiting for our news. If you kill the emperor, you will succeed to the throne. We will be the heroes of the founding of the country."
"Are you willing to join me in becoming a general and a marquis?" Ma Zhiyuan's voice was cold and stern, and the look on his face was a bit ferocious.
How could a group of Qixian officials dare to speak? Of course they did not want to agree, but if they dared to speak out, would Ma Zhiyuan, who dared to kill the king in front of him, spare them lightly?
I was afraid that Ma Zhiyuan would kill him on the spot to establish his authority.
"Since no one speaks, I will leave my life on this book. We will make an alliance with our blood and swear to kill the emperor." Ma Zhiyuan took out a piece of paper full of words from somewhere.
There are three blood-red handprints on it, as well as the names of Ma Zhiyuan, Lu Yifa and Huang Duwei.
"Captain Ma, are you doing this...?"
"What did you say?" Before an official could say anything, he was stared at by Ma Zhiyuan's cold eyes.
"Are you saying that what I'm doing is inappropriate?"
"Come here, kill him." Ma Zhiyuan waved his hand, and Captain Huang stood up and captured the official who spoke.
The official was still thinking of escaping, but Captain Huang drew his weapon and chopped off his head with a knife.
The bloody scene scared all the officials present to the point of vomiting.
"Does anyone have any other opinions?" Ma Zhiyuan spoke again.
The entire hall was filled with deathly silence, and only the disgusting smell of blood filled everyone's brains.
"Since there is none, then sign your name and put your thumbprint." Ma Zhiyuan's voice sounded, and his eyes scanned everyone in front of him.
No one dared to look up at him.
Ma Zhiyuan handed the paper with his own fingerprints to Huang Duwei, and Huang Duwei took out a dagger from his arms.
He walked up to the first official, grabbed his finger, and cut it.
The blood flowed out, and Huang Duwei pressed him down on the paper.
"Write your name." Lu Yifa took the pen and ink and said to the first official.
Some officials bit their own fingers before Huang Duwei could take action, and then pressed blood marks on the paper.
Soon, all Qixian officials pressed their fingerprints on the paper.
"After killing the emperor, I will send these fingerprints eight hundred miles to Chang'an as a haste."
"When it is done, you will all be heroes."
"Okay, let's all go back and rest now." Ma Zhiyuan said, waving to everyone to signal them to leave.
Ma Zhiyuan didn't want these officials to do anything.
I hope they don't do anything.
For example, he tried every means to help the emperor escape.
This is absolutely not allowed.
With these bloody handprints, if the emperor is still alive, they will all kill the nine tribes.
No one can escape!
This also eliminates the possibility of anything else happening.
After everyone left, they all knew that they had no way out, and many officials began to hope that the emperor would die.
Unless the emperor dies, they will die.
"Your Majesty the Governor is wise. Now these officials don't dare to have other thoughts. Our rear security can also be guaranteed." Huang Duwei said with a smile.
He was also worried that these officials would suddenly have a sudden trance and send people to open the city gate, or take other actions to rescue the emperor.
Then they are really dead!
Now, unless these people don't even want their nine tribes, their rear will be absolutely stable.
Lu Yifa also smiled, everything is ready now.
They can take action against the emperor at midnight tonight.
He will soon be able to avenge his son!
"Lu Changshi, it's almost time now. It's time for you to go guard outside the Governor's Mansion."
"As I said before, no one can escape from the Governor's Mansion."
"Today happens to be a northwest wind, and the wind will help the fire. The fire will soon spread to the east courtyard."
"Lu Changshi, your chance for revenge has come!" Ma Zhiyuan and Lu Yifa warned.
A fierce look flashed across Lu Yifa's face.
Then he disappeared into the calm, handed over to Ma Zhiyuan, and Lu Yifa left.
"Master Governor, do you believe that guy so much?" Captain Huang and Ma Zhiyuan asked.
He felt that Lu Yifa was a bit unreliable.
If Zhao Chen really shows up, it's hard to believe that he will continue to stay where he is and give up tracking Zhao Chen.
"If the emperor runs away, his son's revenge will not be avenged. I believe he will have his own ideas." Ma Zhiyuan said calmly.
If the emperor does not die, unless Lu Yifa can directly capture Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, he will never be able to take revenge in his life.
Which one is more important? Ma Zhiyuan believes that Lu Yifa will have a good decision.
"You should also prepare. There is no room for failure in tonight's battle." Ma Zhiyuan looked into the distance and said to Captain Huang.
"Yes." Huang Duwei responded, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.
The north wind howled, making it even colder at night.
Ma Zhiyuan stood at the door, thinking that the plan was about to succeed, and his heart was full of expectations.
The Tang Dynasty will change its dynasty with the efforts of Ma Zhiyuan. This chapter has been completed!
