As night falls and the lanterns are turned on, people are still coming and going on the streets of Chang'an City, and flowers are blooming.
In Da Sima's mansion, people were coming and going, and people were constantly coming in with the latest news, and people were constantly conveying the latest instructions.
This has never happened before, but today it is unusual.
The spies hiding nearby discovered something strange in Da Sima's mansion and immediately returned to report to Tang Mao and others.
Pedestrians, vendors, and storekeepers and clerks in street shops were not aware of the huge turmoil that was about to occur in Chang'an City.
They were still living their lives.
But as the time entered late at night, the atmosphere in the air became a little different.
A chilling atmosphere began to permeate the entire city of Chang'an.
Whether they were wandering outside, setting up stalls, or looking after shops, they all seemed to have a premonition that something big was going to happen, and they all closed down their stalls.
Close the door and go to sleep.
In the Taishi Mansion.
The servant reported to Tang Mao: "Master, the spies monitoring Da Sima's Mansion have come to report that people in Da Sima's Mansion come and go very frequently.
They are completely different from before."
Tang Hao sneered and said: "Huh, it must be their group who are busy fighting for power.
Don't worry about them.
As long as our plan is completed and successfully implemented, their plans will not succeed.
The power of the world will definitely be in our hands."
In the hands of the Grand Master" The servant immediately bowed down and said, "I wish you congratulations in advance."
"Hahaha" At this time, another servant came over and said politely: "Master Qi, Zhong Ji, Zhou Zhong, Chun Yujia, Zhang Xi, Zhao Wen and others have arrived."
Tang Mao immediately said: "Please invite them in quickly."
"promise" After a while, Zhou Zhong, Chun Yujia and others walked in one after another, and everyone saluted Tang Mao together: "Meet the emperor."
Tang Mao raised his hand and said with a smile: "Excuse me, please take a seat and someone will serve you tea."
Everyone sat down with Tang Hao as guests and hosts.
Tang Hao knew very well that he was originally just a prefect.
Compared with these court ministers, his status was far behind.
The reason why they took him as the leader was mainly because he had the status of the head of the state. , otherwise they would definitely not take him seriously.
However, Tang Hao was very confident.
As long as tonight passed, these people would never underestimate him from the bottom of their hearts.
By then, he would be the most powerful person in the world.
Tang Mao looked at Zhong Ji and asked: "Zhong Situ, is there no problem on your side?
Are the troops and horses ready?"
Zhong Ji stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry, my Majesty, my old generals Wang Fang and Wu Zilan have gathered their troops.
If General Li Meng and General Wang Fang succeed and control the Grand Sima Mansion and the Royal Palace, the Majesty will issue an order in the name of your Majesty."
According to the imperial edict, if Liu Cheng's generals obey the order, then they can do it.
If they don't obey the order, as long as they plant a certain order, they can quickly send troops to annihilate the disobedient people."
“Very good, very good” Tang Mao nodded, then looked at Chunyu Jia and asked, "Brother Chunyu, there won't be anything wrong with you, right?"
Chunyu Jia cupped his hands and said, "I have made an agreement with Dong Cheng.
As long as I send someone to deliver the token, he will send troops to eradicate the disobedient people."
Tang Hao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm relieved now.
Let's wait for the time to come.
Someone will come and ask the singer to come over and cheer up."
Originally, the current weather was relatively hot even at night, but late at night, the air seemed to become colder, and many people who had not yet fallen asleep felt the chill.
"Bang, bang bang, bang, bang bang" the watchman's voice came from the street, "The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful of the candles."
It was midnight, and the sound of the watchman was a signal of an uprising.
Suddenly there was a lot of sound of horse hooves and footsteps on the street, and weapons and armor made a screeching sound.

The leading horse-riding general was the former Xiliang Military Academy Lieutenant.
Born Li Meng.
The watchman who was doing the watch saw a large number of soldiers and horses approaching quickly from the opposite side.
He was so frightened that he shouted: "Mom", dropped the bamboo bag, turned around and ran towards the alley next to him.
Li Meng, who was passing by with his soldiers and horses, just turned to look at the watchman hiding in the box, took off his bow and arrow and shot an arrow into the alley, and a black figure slowly fell to the ground.
"Hmph" Li Meng snorted, put away his bow and arrows, picked up his spear and shouted: "Speed up" Under the leadership of Li Meng, a thousand soldiers and horses increased their speed and soon arrived in front of the spacious gate of Da Sima Mansion.
The gate of Da Sima's Mansion was open, and two huge lanterns hung in front of it.
With the arrival of Li Meng's army, a large number of torches illuminated the front of Da Sima's Mansion brightly.
General Xia Houlan of Yamen who was guarding Da Sima's Mansion held a spear in his right hand and held a sword in his left hand and walked out and stood on the steps of the gate.
Behind him, a large number of soldiers guarding Da Sima's Mansion poured out from the mansion.
Xia Houlan pointed at Li Meng and shouted: "Who are you?
You dare to lead troops to the Sima Mansion late at night?"
Li Meng, who was riding on horseback, shouted loudly: "I am General Zhaoxin, and I am hereby ordered to kill the remnants of the national traitor Liu Cheng.
You should quickly surrender and surrender.
I can forget the blame.
Otherwise, I will definitely ask you to fight with these people."
The Great Sima Mansion was destroyed."
A soldier whispered in Xiahoulan's ear.
Xiahoulan looked at Li Meng and sneered: "General Zhaoxin, Li Meng, hahaha, it's really ridiculous.
How can I remember that there is only one captain Zhaoxin?
Who is this general Zhaoxin?"
Are you self-proclaimed?"
Li Meng couldn't keep it off his face and said angrily: "Of course the fart was ordered by His Majesty the Emperor and announced by Tang Mao, the abbot of the country."
"It turns out it's that old bastard Tang Mao.
I'm afraid he granted you the title under the guise of the emperor.
Does he want to rebel?"
Xia Houlan cursed and shouted to the soldiers behind Li Meng: "Brothers, listen. , Da Sima The government is the place where government and military orders are promulgated, and now Li Meng actually leads you to attack.
It is obvious that he wants to rebel.
If you follow him to attack the Grand Sima Mansion, you will be a traitor.
It is too late to put down your weapons now, otherwise it will be too late to regret."
"Ah, what's going on?"
"Yes, why have we become rebels again?"
"I don't want to be a rebel" The soldiers and horses brought by Li Meng suddenly became confused.
Once the morale of the soldiers is confused, problems will arise.
Of course, Li Meng knew what he was going to do at this time.
He immediately shouted: "Brothers, listen to me, we are here to follow your orders."
No one is allowed to sway the morale of the army for me.
Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed.
They will be killed and kill all the remnants of Liu Cheng's rebellion against the party."
A village chief next to him was a little scared and said: "General, this" Li Meng immediately drew his gun and stabbed the village leader to death with one shot.
He shouted to the others: "Those who disobey orders will be killed by me."
The soldiers couldn't help but look at me, and I looked at you.
Under Li Meng's heavy pressure, they had to pick up their weapons and rush to the gate of Da Sima's mansion.
The "killing" soldiers rushed to the gate like a tide.
Xia Houlan shouted: "Bold, rebellious people should die.

Soldiers, stand behind me.
No one can take a step back without a military order.
Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed by me."
"kill" "Puff, puff, puff," the sound of weapons stabbing into the human body kept coming, and the screams of "ah" kept coming.
The sound of killing and the clash of weapons filled this small place.
People kept falling and people were added, and the piles of corpses under their feet were getting higher and higher.
Li Meng saw that Xia Houlan actually had some martial arts skills, and the soldiers were unable to rush past him for a while.
He immediately took off his bow and arrow and aimed at Xia Houlan, but there were too many soldiers in front of him, and he couldn't find the shooting range for a while.
As soon as there was a gap, Li Meng Meng immediately shot the arrow, but another soldier happened to block the arrow's flight.
With a "poof" sound, the soldier blocking the front was hit by an arrow in the back.
Before he died, he turned around and saw that the person who shot the arrow was actually Li Meng.
He closed his unwilling eyes and slowly fell down.
Soon someone stepped on his body and rushed towards him. ahead.
In a house one mile away from Da Sima's Mansion, Xu Huang was wiping his big ax with a silk cloth.
A soldier quickly walked in and clasped his fists, saying: "General, someone is bringing soldiers and horses to attack Da Sima's Mansion.
That's it."
Just now" Xu Huang raised his head, with a flash of light in his eyes, stood up and shouted: "Call the soldiers to assemble and prepare to set off."
"Follow orders" Thousands of people quickly ran out from various houses and formed neat rows, filling the entire street.
Xu Huang rode a horse and walked to the front of the team with a big ax in hand.
He raised the big ax and shouted: "Let's go!"
The sound of neat footsteps and horse hooves sounded, and the ground began to vibrate faintly.
People in nearby residences hid in their houses and shivered, and the timid ones even got under the bed.
An old man sat under the oil lamp and sighed: "Oh my God, I have only been at ease for a few years, and I have to fight and kill again.
Do you want to live?"
Xu Huang's troops split into two parts and headed in two directions.
Not long after, they appeared at both ends of the street in front of Da Sima Mansion.
Li Meng, who was directing the soldiers to storm Da Sima's Mansion, suddenly heard someone shouting: "No, we are surrounded."
Li Meng frowned after hearing this.
He turned around and saw a dense number of soldiers and horses coming across the street on the left.
When he looked at the street on the right, a dense number of soldiers and horses also came across the street on the right.
Li Meng felt a chill in his heart.
Where did these soldiers and horses come from?
How could they appear here so quickly?
The soldiers gradually stopped attacking.
Under such circumstances, no one had the courage to attack the gate of Da Sima's mansion regardless of the safety of the left and right sides.
"Stop" Xu Huang reined in his horse and raised his hand.
The ordering soldier shouted: "The general has an order, the whole army must stop."
With a "boom", the last footsteps came out, and the ground shook for a while before calming down.
Xu Huang rode his horse forward and took a few steps forward.
He raised his big ax and shouted to Li Meng and his soldiers: "The attack on Da Sima's Mansion is to rebel against you.
You are soldiers, and you have no choice but to obey orders.
I know you are not the main culprits, hurry up."
If you lay down your weapons and surrender, you may be pardoned.
If you insist on going your own way and follow the rebels all the way to the dark side, there will only be a dead end in front of you."
Li Meng panicked and shouted: "He farted.

I obeyed your majesty's order to kill Liu Cheng, the remnant of the rebels.
Now Liu Cheng has been killed by your majesty in Yanmen, and the rebels are leaderless.
People across the way, listen, you guys are He is a soldier of the imperial court, and he should serve the imperial court.
How can you obey Liu Cheng and rebel against the party and not quickly follow me?"
"Pfft" made Li Meng think.
Li Meng felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and a lot of his strength disappeared quickly.
He slowly turned his head and saw a soldier stabbing his lower back with a spear.
"You, you ungrateful person" Li Meng struggled to spit out a sentence, but he couldn't finish it no matter what.
"Captain, I'm sorry, I'm just following orders.
You'll have a good trip."
After the soldier said this, he pulled out his spear fiercely.
A large amount of blood flowed out of Li Meng's body, and he slowly fell off the horse and fell to the ground, twitching continuously.
"The traitor Li Meng has been killed.
If you don't quickly throw down your weapons and surrender, do you want to be buried with Li Meng?"
Following this loud shout, some of the soldiers brought by Li Meng began to drop their weapons, one after another. royal palace.
Lu Weihuang was patrolling with some soldiers when a small colonel came over with a few people and clasped their fists in greeting: "General Lu, your majesty invites you."
Lu Weihuang raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty, who are you?"
The primary school teacher panicked and hurriedly calmed down, replying: "Liang Ke, the junior high school officer of the Tiger Ben Army."
Lu Weihuang held the hilt of the sword and looked at the man, and said: "That's not right.
When your Majesty has something to do, he will naturally send eunuchs to summon his ministers.
Why would he send you a small school?
There must be something wrong here.
Come and get it for me."
The soldiers behind him stepped forward to surround Liang Ke and others, and pointed their spears at them.
With just a little force, they could stab each of them through.
Lu Weihuang shouted: "Tell me, who sent you here in an attempt to deceive this general about his past conspiracy?"
Liang Ke originally thought that deceiving Lu Weihuang was a very simple matter, but he did not expect that Lu Weihuang was so cautious and shrewd, and he could see the problem at a glance.
Liang Ke was so frightened that he knelt down and cried loudly: "General, spare your life.
It was General Huben who sent a villain to deceive the general.
They have already ambushed the troops under the Zhuque Tower and are waiting for the general to pass."
Just kill the general and seize the military power."
Lu Weihuang was furious: "Prince Fu, you are so brave.
Tell me, why did he do this?"
"The prince obeyed the instructions of Tang Mao, the father of the country, and planned to kill the general, seize the Yulin army and control the palace."
"Tie up" "yes" Lu Weihuang immediately ordered: "Send the order, except for the soldiers on duty, everyone resting in the camp must assemble immediately."
In less than a cup of tea, Lu Weihuang led a large number of soldiers and horses to quickly surround Zhuque Que.
Prince Fu, who heard the commotion, knew something was wrong and immediately prepared to retreat to the Huben Army barracks with his ambushes.
However, Lu Weihuang came too quickly and blocked the retreat to the Huben Army barracks.
He had to lead his people to quickly retreat to Weiyang Palace.
Go, intending to control the emperor first and use the emperor to make Lu Weihuang throw a rat weapon.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened.
The prince and his men have broken into the palace.
They are coming in a menacing manner and are about to kill them."
Eunuch Zhao Chun ran into the palace and shouted.
Liu Bian was so frightened that he rolled off his concubine and shouted: "Hurry up and protect me and escape!"

Zhao Chun immediately organized some eunuchs to protect Liu Bian with weapons.
He fled the palace in panic and went straight to Yongxiang.
"Quickly, close the door, close it, don't open the door no matter who comes," Liu Bian shouted to Yongxiang Ling.
Yongxiang was originally a place where palace ladies lived, but later became a place where female criminals in the palace were imprisoned, which was equivalent to a prison in the palace.
Under Liu Bian's order, Yongxiang ordered the eunuchs to seal the door tightly, but Liu Bian himself hid in a cell
