Fang Zheng's emotions are very complicated now. Fear, panic, anger, all kinds of emotions are mixed together, and his whole mind has gone blank.
Rebellion is actually very reasonable when explained from a scientific perspective. The theory of evolution advocates survival of the fittest, and the same is true for the ruling class in human society. Before the Chu-Han conflict, there was a desperate peasant who had no choice but to
He shouted out a famous saying that has been passed down for thousands of years: "Princes, generals, and prime ministers, would you rather have your own kind?" The farmer's name was Chen Sheng. After shouting this sentence, he rose up and attacked the city and plundered the land. The team that opposed the violent Qin rapidly expanded.
Hundreds of thousands of people arrived, completely overthrowing the crumbling Qin Dynasty.
Obviously, Pan Shangshu was inspired by Chen Sheng's deeds. He felt that his destiny was indescribably precious and that he was possessed by the Ziwei star.
Heart, you can go one step further. How do you say an English advertising slogan?!ido!
What Fang Zheng is wondering now is, didn't the emperor send troops to surround Pan Shangshu's mansion? This old guy still dares to rebel, and he doesn't want his life? The imperial army has time to chop him into pieces before the rebels enter the city.
Jiang, wouldn’t Lao Pan have the courage to face death like home?
What makes Fang Zheng most angry is that the old man surnamed Pan didn't rebel earlier than later. I'm getting married today, and I'm about to have a wedding ceremony with Changping. You just happened to raise an army and interfere with my good deeds without a trace.
For this reason, Fang Zheng decided that after defeating the rebels, he would cut off the penises of his two sons and soak them in wine. After all, he had committed a major crime of killing the nine tribes and kept the two penises to pass on the family line.
It's no use either.
Turning his head, Fang Zheng saw Chang Ping looking at him with wide eyes, full of fear and helplessness, and her petite body was shaking uncontrollably. This princess who grew up in a honeypot finally realized at this moment,
When someone tried to break the honeypot of her existence, all she could do was be scared and at a loss. She ran rampant in the capital, frequently beat and scolded, and was unruly and willful, all just because she wore the aura of a princess. One day she discovered
The halo on her head was about to be taken away, and she realized that she was actually no different from ordinary people. She would also be afraid, fearful, and even desperate. Before thousands of troops, she was a little princess with no ability at all.
Change anything.
Gently holding Chang Ping in his arms, Fang Zheng whispered: "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
He is my husband, the one I rely on. Chang Ping half-closed his eyes, thinking sweetly in his heart, and his delicate body could not help but fall softly into Fang Zheng's arms.
Fang Zheng's deep voice came to his ears again, warm and firm.
"...If it doesn't work, let's climb up the wall and call for help..."
"You...!" Changping punched him bitterly.
"Father hasn't returned to the palace yet? Let's go find him quickly!" Chang Ping said angrily.
Fang Zheng was shocked, yes, his father-in-law was still drinking with his father in Fang Mansion. He probably knew the news about Pan Shangshu's rebellion by now. Maybe he needed me right now.
Holding Chang Ping's little hand, Fang Zheng ran out and ran for two steps before suddenly stopping again.
"What's wrong?" Chang Ping asked quickly when he saw Fang Zheng's hesitant expression.
"...But we haven't gotten married yet..." Fang Zheng muttered, pouting in grievance like a child who didn't get a lollipop.
"You...you bastard! How long have you been thinking about this!" Chang Ping looked around, trying to find a solid object to hit this inconspicuous husband on the head.
After leaving the room, Wen Sen was respectfully standing outside the door waiting for him.
Fang Zheng became angry when he saw him: "How did you find out the information? After probing around, you didn't find out whether Zhao Hu would rebel? What are you doing for food?"….
Wen Sen exclaimed: "Sir, my subordinates have tried their best. Who knew that Zhao Hu, who usually seemed the most peaceful, would rebel? Besides, when the brothers inquired, Zhao Hu's Shenwu Army was the calmest and most normal army.
Well, my subordinates didn’t expect this man to be so ambitious that he dared to rebel..."
"Hey, it's true that a biting dog doesn't bark. Let's go to the front hall."
Walking to the middle of the small courtyard, Fang Zheng loudly called out Yanran, Sister Feng and Xiaolu. These three were his wives. When the war was in chaos, he couldn't let them get separated, otherwise where would he cry in the future?
A large group of people followed Fang Zheng towards the front hall. The killer brother and Xiao Wu also followed Fang Zheng at some point. They kept silent. Xiao Wu had received the news and his face was pale with fright. The killer brother had an expression on his face.
He was very calm and calm, without the slightest panic. Those who have the ability can just drag him. If it doesn't work, he can run away at any time. Fang Zheng really envied the killer brother at this time. After suppressing this rebellion, maybe he should consider whether to practice martial arts.
, if nothing else, at least you must learn Qinggong well when saving your life.
Along the way, the servants of the Fang Mansion were seen running around in panic, their cheerful expressions long gone, replaced by looks of panic and fear.
The imperial guards around the emperor have blocked the main gate and back door of Fang's mansion, guarding it with swords and guns in hand. Fang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Fortunately, the imperial guards were not in chaos, otherwise he would really consider taking the whole family with him.
The little one fled for his life.
The guests who came to congratulate were hiding timidly in an open space outside the front hall. No matter they were officials from the DPRK or the business owners, they were no longer interested in eating, drinking, talking and laughing, and raised their heads in fear.
My ears listened to the sounds outside the house.
In the front hall, the emperor was sitting steadily on the throne. A group of court officials and members of the royal family were surrounding the emperor, including the fat man and the King of Thailand. Everyone was talking about something. Mr. Fang stood aside.
, his face was a little pale, and he was stroking his beard pretending to be calm, while Mrs. Fang comforted him with gentle words.
After hurriedly running for a few steps, Fang Zheng rushed into the front hall, unceremoniously pushed aside the ministers surrounding the emperor, and shouted hurriedly: "Your Majesty! Pan Shangshu has rebelled!"
When the ministers saw him squeezing in, they didn't pay much attention, and they still gathered around and chattered...
Fang Zheng increased his tone and said anxiously: "Your Majesty! Pan Shangshu has rebelled!"
Everyone is still chirping...
Fang Zheng was speechless. Do I have no sense of existence? Everyone thinks I am transparent?
"Your Majesty! Pan..."
"Okay! Can't you say something meaningful? Who doesn't know that he has rebelled?" The emperor interrupted him and glared at him angrily.
The ministers hurriedly agreed: "That's right..."
"…………"
This can't continue like this. This is my home, and it's not a court meeting in the Jinluan Palace. It's unreasonable for you to ignore me as the master.
With a smile on his face, Fang Zheng bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I am planning to say something meaningful..."
"Huh? What do you have to say?" The emperor and the ministers looked at him curiously, their eyes full of encouragement and expectation.
Fang Zheng looked around, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The only solution now is..."
"Huh?" Everyone pricked up their ears, as if they were all listening.
"...We can only change into casual clothes and run away separately." Fang Zheng said what he thought was the safest way.
"Shameless!" Everyone was disappointed and cursed in unison.
Fang Zheng said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, the rebels have entered the city. There are not many forbidden troops in the city. Don't you want to fight with them? If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. I think you can run out of the city quickly."
The hope of suppressing the rebellion..."
At this time, a commander of the Forbidden Army hurriedly came forward and whispered a few words in the emperor's ear...
"What? Run away? When did you run away? How did you run away?" the emperor said with a shocked look on his face.
The commander of the imperial army lowered his head in shame and said: "After discovering that the rebels had entered the city, the brothers rushed into Pan's mansion as quickly as possible and planned to arrest him. However, they searched the entire Pan's mansion, except for those servants.
In the nursing home, no trace of the Pan family was found, and even several staff members in the Pan Mansion lost their traces..."
"Didn't I ask you to surround Pan's house? Where did he run away from?" The emperor's face looked a little defeated.
"After searching, the brothers discovered that there was a secret passage in Pan's study room, which led directly to the outside of the city. They followed the secret passage and chased it. They found that halfway through, the secret passage had been completely sealed..."
The emperor sat down softly, with trembling lips and unable to speak a word. His usually calm eyes revealed a slight panic. The ministers were also in an uproar now. Just now, everyone was discussing, waiting for the imperial army to rush in.
The Pan Mansion has captured Pan Shangshu, and at least they have a bargaining chip in their hands to make the rebels surrender. They can take advantage of the hesitation of the rebels to calmly mobilize the army outside the city and the border troops to encircle and suppress the rebels. Now the bargaining chip is gone.
Only then did everyone realize that they had fallen into an embarrassing situation of internal and external difficulties.
"It's over, it's over! It's all over now!" Fang Zheng patted his thigh in annoyance, spreading pessimism: "Pan Shangshu has run away. The rebels now have a master. Who can stop them when they attack wherever they want?"
Seeing everyone's frightened and confused expressions, Fang Zheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, let's run too. Only by running out of the city and joining the army loyal to you can we have a chance to turn defeat into victory. Look, Pan Shangshu also ran away.
Did you? He ran away first, you ran after, there is no shame in saying it anyway, everyone runs his own way, everyone has his own way..."
When Fang Zheng said running away just now, everyone ignored him. Now the situation suddenly changed. No one among the ministers scolded him for being shameless anymore. They all frowned and thought about the feasibility of Fang Zheng's words.
"Shut up! I am the majestic emperor, with a dignity of 950,000 chariots. How can I leave the capital and the people behind and do such things as to live in an ignoble way? How will I be able to see my ancestors under the Nine Springs in the future?"
The emperor stood up angrily and shouted loudly.
Fang Zheng shrank his neck in fear, then smiled and said: "Uh... Your Majesty, I have some confidential matters to discuss with you. Can you lend me a step to speak?"
After saying this, regardless of the glares of the ministers on the side, Fang Zheng half-invited and half-pulled the emperor to a corner of the front hall.
"Your Majesty, what's going on? Didn't you say that you had made arrangements a few days ago, and the armies that Pan Shangshu colluded with will not send troops? Why didn't you pay attention to Zhao Hu?" Fang Zheng was thinking at this time.
He had too many questions, and he didn't understand why the situation that seemed to be a sure victory was completely reversed in the blink of an eye.
"Alas! One wrong step, one wrong step after another!" The emperor sighed, with an expression of indescribable resentment: "I have calculated countless times, but I didn't even realize that Zhao Hu is also a member of Pan's party! This man has always been honest.
I have tested him many times, and he behaved completely loyal to the emperor and the country. The spies sent to his army also reported that the Zhao Hu military camp was calm as usual, and there was no abnormality. I said this
Only then did we relax our vigilance against him. This man hid himself so deeply that I didn’t expect that he would also be driven by Pan Ni!”
The emperor said with gritted teeth.
Fang Zheng sighed: "Actually, we should have rushed into Pan's house a few days ago and chopped up that old thing. The rebels are leaderless and will be wiped out soon. It is better than letting the tiger return to the mountain now."
"Hmph! Even if Pan Shangshu was killed at that time, do you think the world would be at peace? Tell you, it's impossible! If he were killed, his disciples and former officials from all over the world would immediately stand up and accuse me of slaughtering loyal ministers, and then all over the world
Rebels will rise, and the entire Chinese Dynasty will fall into war, and then the Turks in the north may take advantage of the chaos and move south. The situation at that time will only be worse than now! There is only one rebel army in the city, Zhao Hu.
Pan Ni had not had time to order his disciples. The most important thing is that he took the step of rebellion first, so he could not hide the public opinion of the world. The people and the army knew that he was a rebellious minister and a traitor. Even if he ascended the throne and became emperor in the future,
His throne is not secure either. What’s more…”….
The emperor smiled proudly: "What's more, I'm not dead yet, I'm still the emperor of the Hua Dynasty, and most of the world's armies are still in my hands. If Pan Shun wants to be emperor, I'm afraid it won't be that easy!
It’s not easy to be an emperor. Do you think that as long as you enter the palace and sit on the throne, you will be the emperor? Huh! What a joke!"
Turning his head, the emperor saw Fang Zheng looking at him with stars in his eyes. The emperor frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"Wow! Your Majesty, this is the first time I have noticed that you actually said so many words in one breath. It's really amazing..." Fang Zheng said with admiration.
"…………"
The emperor has said so much, but it can be summed up in one sentence: In this confrontation with Pan Shangshu, the emperor is at a disadvantage.
Only now did Fang Zheng deeply understand the meaning of the so-called "one man makes a mistake and everyone loses" in the game between big shots. He knew that the emperor had made very careful arrangements. The four-pronged army colluded with Pan Shangshu had already prepared the plan.
Before the uprising, the emperor had secretly sent people out of the capital to either imprison or appease. In short, the generals of the Fourth Army did not uprising according to Pan Shangshu's original plan. In this matter, the emperor handled the matter very well and took time.
The combination of the two was also very good, and the date was just right. Therefore, Pan Shangshu rashly rebelled without getting any information, and he actually lost one step first.
But the emperor did two things wrong. First, he did not expect that Zhao Hu would rebel, and the emperor was caught off guard.
Second, I didn’t expect that there was a secret passage in Pan Shangshu’s mansion that led directly to the outside of the city. To be honest, this was a blind spot that no one could have imagined. When the emperor and Fang Zheng were discussing it, they both thought that Pan Shangshu had become a trap in a urn.
That turtle, who would have expected that this turtle could actually dig holes and let him escape...
The current situation is that Zhao Hu's 40,000 to 50,000 rebels have invaded the capital, and contact with the palace has been lost. I don't know if they have captured it, but the rebels will get the news soon, and then they will attack directly.
The emperor is their first target. Of course, Fang Zheng, the emperor's treacherous minister and son-in-law, cannot be targeted.
Since the rebels are under the banner of "Qing Jun's Side", if Fang Zheng is caught by the rebels, if nothing else happens, this traitor will definitely die earlier than the emperor, and everyone from the Fang Mansion to Mr. Fang and the Chinese Pastoral Dog Dahuang will die.
There is no way to escape the fate of being killed.
Fang Zheng is very scared now. Yes, he is afraid of death. He is just an ordinary person who has traveled through time. He will not defeat the tyrant, nor shake the body of a tiger. He does not have the strength to fight against a liger, nor is he capable of outsmarting others.
In terms of intelligence, he cannot invent muskets and cannons, and he has never led soldiers in a war. In the final analysis, he is just a playboy waiting to die. No matter how high-ranking an official he is and how powerful he is,
His essence is still just a playboy. He enjoys being a playboy and has no intention of changing his temperament.
If there is anything else that shines in this dude, it is that he is basically a kind person, a kind person who will never abandon his parents, wife and friends. If Fang Zheng's current fear is carefully analyzed,
In fact, most of them are worried that his parents and wife who are trapped in the house will be captured and killed by the rebels. Of course, he himself is also afraid of death, but he is a person who has died once. Psychologically speaking, he is worried about the safety of people around him.
Far more worried about my own safety.
A man's responsibility does not depend on his ability, but on whether he has the courage to take responsibility for his family and friends at critical times.
"What are you thinking about?" The emperor looked at Fang Zheng calmly.
Fang Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "If I said that I plan to rush out now, fight with the rebels, be loyal to the emperor, and devote myself to the country... Would you believe it, your emperor?"
The emperor laughed loudly: "If you have such an idea, unless the sun rises from the west and the Qinhuai River flows backward..."
These words are so vicious! Am I that bad?….
Fang Zheng said with a dark face: "Your Majesty, you don't attack loyal ministers like this! I was just thinking about going out and fighting against the rebels. If you say this, hey, I won't go..."
The emperor smiled slightly and said, "Are you calling me a donkey?"
Fang Zheng sighed, "Actually, Wei Chen's real idea is to lead the whole family to escape first. Your Majesty, Wei Chen is not destined to sacrifice his life for the country. When the war is in turmoil, Wei Chen just wants to do his best to save the country."
My family is living well. Whether you say that I am timid or shameless, I dare not deny it. The country and the country are too far away for me. Only the family around me is the most real..."
Carefully glancing at the calm-looking emperor, Fang Zheng said: "...Your Majesty, we'd better run away first. Why do we have to stay at Wei Chen's house to resist the rebels? Look, we only have three members of the imperial army here.
There are four thousand troops, and there are no defenses in Wei Chen's mansion. The rebels can easily attack and they will be killed by them. This... death is too meaningless? "
The emperor nodded and said: "Yes, your words make sense. I have a plan to wipe out the rebels, but this plan must be completed by a trustworthy person."
The emperor looked at Fang Zheng and smiled, a little maliciously: "Fang Aiqing, congratulations to you, you have made meritorious service again, and the opportunity to be promoted to a higher rank is right in front of you, haha..."
Fang Zheng looked at the emperor in horror and shivered inexplicably.
