When Zhao Chen arrived at the governor's door, the fire had almost reached the east courtyard.
Lu Yifa led his men and surrounded the entire Governor's Mansion.
Zhao Chen did not expect that the emperor and the others did not start the fire on their own initiative.
This undoubtedly disrupted their previous plans.
Zhao Chen originally thought that even if there were 3,000 Zhechong Mansion soldiers, they would not be able to defeat the 500 Beiya Forbidden Army soldiers so quickly.
As long as the two sides fight, Li Ke can burn the governor's mansion with fire, and he will let Cheng Chumo open the city gate.
If Huangzhou's two thousand Zhechong soldiers enter the city, they can hold back the three thousand soldiers.
Then the emperor and the others can escape in the chaos, and even leave behind fake dead bodies.
Let Ma Zhiyuan and others think that the emperor is dead.
But who would have thought that Lu Yifa and his men sealed the governor's mansion.
This fire must have been set off by Lu Yifa, in order to directly burn the emperor and others inside.
The crossbowman prevents people inside from rushing out.
"Everyone, please pay attention. If anyone comes out of here, no matter who it is, they will be shot directly." Lu Yifa's voice came from afar.
Zhao Chen stood in the darkness in the distance, frowning.
The fire has spread. If the emperor and the others don't escape, they will definitely be burned alive inside.
If he came out like this now, he would be shot into pieces by a group of crossbowmen.
The only way right now is to show up and attract Lu Yifa's attention away.
A better possibility is that Lu Yifa directly led people to hunt him down.
With no one guarding the door, the Emperor and the others might still be able to escape, otherwise...
Zhao Chen didn't want to risk his life, but he thought that the Dog Emperor was still very nice to him.
And that kid Li Ke, if he dies, who will he take care of on weekdays?
"Lu Yifa!" Zhao Chen appeared from the darkness and shouted to Lu Yifa.
When Lu Yifa heard someone calling his name, he looked behind him.
Seeing a young and handsome boy standing in the distance, with the firelight shining on his face, Lu Yifa also thought to himself, this boy is definitely an ordinary person.
"Who are you?" Lu Yifa thought about it and realized that he didn't know the young man in front of him.
"Who am I? I am Zhao Chen." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Lu Yifa's complexion suddenly changed.
"Zhao Chen!"
"You are Zhao Chen!" Lu Yifa knew that Zhao Chen was young, but he never expected that Zhao Chen would dare to appear in front of him one day.
Thinking of his dead son, his anger almost made him collapse.
"Yes, I am Zhao Chen. Your son Luneng robbed a civilian girl. You happened to be here that day. In fact, you only had to take two steps quickly to save your son."
"He wanted to ask you for help. He crawled all the way from the room to the door of the east courtyard."
"pity!"
The word "pity" completely angered Lu Yifa.
He learned from Wu Zuo that before his death, his son once wanted to save himself and crawled from his room to the door of the east courtyard.
Both legs were bruised.
But even so, his son still died.
He even died in front of his eyes.
Thinking of his son being pierced through the throat with a dagger, Lu Yifa's eyes were filled with blood.
"Lord Chang Shi, he came here to anger you on purpose. Don't fall for his deception." A dead soldier and Lu Yifa reminded.
Of course Lu Yifa understood what Zhao Chen was thinking.
But when he thought of his son's death, Lu Yifa couldn't help but want to kill Zhao Chen.
He knew that his son had done many evil things and deserved his death.
But this does not prevent him from avenging his son.
"Lu Yifa, I'm just here to stimulate you. After you kill the emperor, I should go back to Chang'an."
"You said that with my reputation and strength, will I be able to inherit the throne as soon as possible after I return?"
"After all, I have to thank you this time, otherwise who knows when that foolish king will fart, and I don't want to be the King of Han or the Crown Prince for the rest of my life." Zhao Chen shouted to Lu Yifa with a smile.
Behind the wall of the Governor's Mansion, the emperor's face twitched as he listened to Zhao Chen's words.
"Father, don't be impulsive. Brother Huang is not that kind of person." Li Ke's heart was also beating fast.
It's okay to say that the emperor is a foolish king, and he also said that he hoped that the emperor would burp his fart soon.
Good guy, really a good guy.
"I'm not angry. I understand that I, this foolish king, will burp his shit in a short while." The emperor cursed in a low voice.
Li Ke didn't dare to speak.
What did he dare to say, saying that the emperor had better burp now, so the emperor wouldn't let him go out and be a hedgehog now?
Outside the Governor's Mansion, Lu Yifa's expression was so gloomy that he could shed tears.
This is what worries him the most.
What if Zhao Chen didn't care about the emperor's life or death and went back to Chang'an directly.
With Zhao Chen's ability, who in Chang'an can beat Zhao Chen?
Most of the generals in the army were on good terms with Zhao Chen. If the emperor collapsed, Zhao Chen would raise his arms and call out.
The number of those who gathered was probably hard to estimate.
If Zhao Chen becomes emperor, will Lu Yifa still want to take revenge?
It would be better to commit suicide directly.
Even if Zhao Chen fails to become emperor, if he lets Zhao Chen run away now, will he still have a chance in the future?
Lu Yifa has never completely believed Ma Zhiyuan and his guarantee.
He also knew that he was placed here to be used as a scapegoat in the future.
When the emperor died, Qizhou officials would always take the blame personally.
And Lu Yifa is undoubtedly the best candidate.
Qi Governor Shi, the second person in Qizhou, is enough if he takes the blame!
At that time, I am afraid that if Ma Zhiyuan is promoted to an official position, Lu Yifa will lose his soul in the wilderness.
"Zhao Chen, if you kill my son, I will definitely avenge you." Lu Yifa looked at Zhao Chen with a stern look on his face.
"Then come here. If you can catch me, just do it!" Zhao Chen still had a faint smile on his face.
Lu Yifa looked like this, it was obvious that he had taken his own fish hook.
Although this move is dangerous, it is currently the only way to save the emperor.
"Come two hundred people, follow me and kill him!" Lu Yifa showed a ferocious look on his face and shouted with the dead soldiers around him.
"Lord Chang Shi, Governor Ma will tell you..."
The dead man wanted to use Ma Zhiyuan to suppress Lu Yifa, but he didn't expect Lu Yifa to take out a dagger and slit his throat directly.
The dead soldier clutched his throat and fell to the ground, his eyes full of unwillingness.
The other dead soldiers were also startled, looking at Lu Yifa with fear on their faces.
"If anyone mentions that bastard Ma Zhiyuan again in front of this long history, he will end up like him." Lu Yi said with hatred.
Then his eyes locked on Zhao Chen: "Zhao Chen, since you are willing to gamble with your life, then this long history will help you."
"Right now, the east courtyard has been covered in fire. The emperor and the others are probably almost dead."
"Now, go and reunite with them."
"Come here, follow me and capture Zhao Chen!"
After Lu Yifa said this, he grabbed the crossbow of the person next to him and pulled the trigger towards Zhao Chen.
The other crossbowmen behind him also pulled the triggers on Zhao Chen.
A rain of arrows filled the sky and flew towards Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen only had time to turn around and retreat. Even with his skill, under the rain of arrows, his left arm was also shot through by a crossbow arrow.
