Sure enough, soon another person who looked like a servant came in and reported: "Master, something bad has happened.
The eunuch next to Concubine Tang sent a letter for help with stones, saying that the prince's general's plan to trap and kill Lu Weihuang was discovered.
Seeing this, Lu Weihuang led troops to chase General Wang.
General Wang had no choice but to His Majesty led the troops to retreat into Weiyang Palace.
His Majesty was frightened and escaped while being protected by Zhao Chun and others.
It is unknown where he was hiding.
Lu Weihuang led his troops and chased him outside the gate of Weiyang Palace.
Concubine Tang went up to the city wall and scolded him, asking him to lead his troops back. , but that guy didn’t obey the empress’s orders and was storming the palace gate with his troops.
The situation is extremely critical.”
Everyone was shocked, and Tang Mao said to Chunyu Jiaqi with a serious face: "Brother Chunyu, at this time, we can only let General Dong Cheng lead the Xiaowei Battalion to dispatch."
Chunyu Jia also realized that now he could only try his best to control the palace.
As long as the emperor was in his hands and Liu Cheng was dead, the leading generals would not dare to mess around.
Only by controlling the army and gradually dividing it to win over the generals can the goal of gathering power be achieved.
"Okay."
Chunyu Jia agreed, handed a letter that had been prepared to a guard, and ordered: "Hurry and give this letter to General Dong Cheng, and ask him to act according to what the letter says."
"Yes."
The guard picked up the letter and turned to leave.
The Xiaowei camp is brightly lit.
The soldiers had already assembled and were ready.
Dong Cheng rode on horseback and took the letter from the guard who was delivering the letter.
After opening it, he took a torch and read the letter under the light of the fire.
After reading it, he burned the letter.
Burn to ashes.
He looked at the squarely arranged soldiers and generals and shouted: "Soldiers, there are rebels and rebels who are causing trouble in the palace.
The emperor and concubines are in danger.
I, the general, have been ordered to lead the army to quell the rebellion.
All the generals listen to the order and set off."
"Wait a minute!"
Army Sima Wang Tingjian stood up and shouted to stop, asking: "General Dong, may I ask who ordered you to mobilize troops and where is the tiger talisman?"
Dong Cheng looked ugly and said in a deep voice: "This general is following the emperor's will."
Wang Tingjian said: "Everyone knows that the emperor does not care about military and political affairs.
If it is not verified by the Grand Sima Mansion, the decree will be invalid.
You don't have the tiger talisman to mobilize troops.
How can you send troops without authorization?
Have all the rules become decorations?"
"Bold, you actually question my general's decision.
Rules are dead, people are alive, how can a living person be choked to death by urinating?
Now that the emperor is in danger, we can only come in from the right to win it for me as a matter of urgency."
As Dong Cheng shouted loudly, his soldiers rushed forward and put their swords on Wang Tingjian's neck.
However, Wang Tingjian did not care about the danger at all and shouted: "Listen, all the soldiers, Dong Cheng did not have the tiger talisman to mobilize troops, and he also burned the so-called decree, which shows that his plan is evil."
Dong Cheng's face changed drastically and he shouted: "How brave!
How dare you disobey military orders and disturb the morale of the army?
I'll kill you!"
With a "poof" sound, a soldier pulled hard, and the blade cut the artery in Wang Tingjian's neck, and a stream of blood spattered out.
"You will die badly."

Wang Tingjian covered his neck and slowly fell down.
Dong Cheng glanced at the other generals, and one of the captains stood up and said: "General, the army commander is appointed by the court.
Even if he is guilty, he should not be killed by the general.
The general acted against the rules this time.
It is really hard to convince us. " Dong Cheng's eyes flashed fiercely, he drew his sword and threw it, hitting the colonel's abdomen, causing him to fall straight up.
"Who else dares to disobey military orders?"
As Dong Cheng shouted loudly, several of his closest lieutenants bowed down one after another: "I am willing to obey the general's orders."
The remaining one or two captains saw that most of the captains had surrendered, so they had no choice but to bow down and show their compliance.
"Very well, all the officers and men have obeyed the order, and the whole army has set off, aiming for the palace."
After Dong Cheng finished speaking, he grabbed the spear and rode out of the camp.
The soldiers and horses of the Xiaowei camp also came out of the camp under the leadership of the captains.
The palace enters.
Soon, Lu Weihuang, who was commanding the soldiers and horses to storm the gate of Weiyang Palace, received a report that soldiers and horses from the Xiaowei Battalion, led by Dong Cheng, arrived outside the palace gate and ordered the palace gate to be opened, otherwise they would attack with troops.
After hearing this, Lu Weihuang frowned and immediately shouted: "Bushe, you come to command the attack on the palace gate."
"Yes, General" Lu Weihuang confessed and immediately led his soldiers to the palace wall.
He held the parapet and looked at the densely packed Xiaowei camp soldiers and horses below.
He immediately ordered the messengers around him: "Go and pass on this general's order.
In addition to On duty and patrol, mobilize all the troops to guard the imperial city."
"Follow your orders" Lu Weihuang shouted to the top of the city again: "The officers and soldiers of the Yulin Army are listening to the order.
The Xiaowei camp is attacking the imperial city for rebellion.
Please cheer up.
As long as they dare to attack the city, they will fight back immediately."
"yes" Dong Cheng, who was outside the imperial city, heard this and looked up at the city.
The muscles on his face twitched and he immediately shouted: "Soldiers, the rebellious Liu Cheng has been killed in Yanmen.
We will destroy the rebellious people according to the emperor's order."
Anyone who dares to stand in the way of the remnant will be killed.
All the soldiers follow me to break through the palace gate and enter the palace to escort the archers and release arrows."
"Swish, swish, swish" a large number of arrows were shot at the city head, and many Yulin Army soldiers were killed.
"Archers counterattack, shoot for me," Lu Weihuang shouted, waving his spear to knock away the arrows that were constantly being shot.
As the archers on the city wall counterattacked condescendingly, the archers below the city suddenly couldn't stand it any longer.
A large number of them were shot dead and then retreated one after another.
"Find me a ladder and a battering ram to break open the palace door."
The fighting also started on the walls of the imperial city, and for a while, shouts of killing could be heard throughout Chang'an City.
Da Sima Mansion.
The soldiers were cleaning up the corpses and collecting swords, guns and arrows.
A minor official rushed into the meeting hall and reported to Xun Yu, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Li Ru, Xun You and others who were in the hall: "General Wu Zilan, who reported the deviation, is leading his troops to attack Da Sima's mansion; Xiaowei camp is here Dong Cheng's troops are attacking fiercely In the Imperial City, General Huben Wang Zifu led his troops to retreat into the Weiyang Palace in an attempt to kidnap the emperor.
The emperor's whereabouts are unknown.
Part of the Yulin Army is attacking the Weiyang Palace.
General Lu Weihuang personally led his troops to resist the attack of Dong Cheng's army on the tower of the Imperial City."
Jia Xu said to Xu Huang: "General Xu, it seems we need your troops to stop Wu Zilan."
Xu Huang cupped his fists and said: "Don't worry, I have arranged the pockets.
Any soldiers and horses that enter the vicinity of Da Sima's Mansion will fall into the pockets.
If you keep them safe, they will not be able to escape."
Li Ru asked: "What should we do with the imperial palace?
Lu Weihuang doesn't have too many soldiers and horses.

We have to attack Weiyang Palace to rescue His Majesty the Emperor, but also defend against the attack of the Xiaowei Camp.
I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for a long time."
Xun Yu said: "We can't count on the soldiers and horses outside the city.
Now the only soldiers and horses in the city are the armed guards who have not yet moved.
The city is already in chaos, and the shouts of killing are loud and clear.
It is impossible for Chen Dong, the general of Zhendong, not to be there."
He received the news, but even in such a situation, he still did not take action.
What on earth is he waiting for?"
Guo Jia shook his cattail leaf fan and said: "The situation is chaotic, and we didn't inform him in advance.
No one will act rashly.
If I guess correctly, he is waiting for all the people with ulterior motives to show up, so that they can be caught in one fell swoop."
Chen Dao, if he doesn't have the lord's personal order and the talisman for troop deployment, I'm afraid he won't listen to anyone."
Jia Xu frowned and said, "We can't just wait for Chen Dao to send troops.
If the imperial city is captured by Dong Cheng and the emperor falls into the hands of Tang Mao's gang and is controlled by them, I'm afraid there will be even greater chaos.
After all, the lord is not in Chang'an.
They can announce that the lord is dead and then stir up trouble among us and make the generals of the army suspicious of each other.
The consequences will be disastrous and the efforts of the past few years will probably be in vain."
Xun Yu said at this time: "No, we can't wait any longer.
I'm going to see Chen Dao.
He must send troops immediately."
Xun You immediately stopped him and said, "Uncle, you can't go.
Even if someone wants to see Chen Dao and ask him to send troops, it can't be you."
After Xun Yu thought for a moment, he understood that when Liu Cheng was away from Chang'an, he was basically responsible for handling government affairs.
If he continued to be involved with military power, it would be easy for him to be criticized.
Jia Xu sighed: "It's better for me to go.
I'm the military advisor of Da Sima's Mansion.
It's most appropriate for me to go."
Jia Xu was about to leave, when a small official came from outside and reported: "To inform you, the armed guards have been dispatched.
Five thousand people are attacking the palace.
Three schools of troops have been separated to enforce martial law in the east, west, and south districts.
The main traffic arteries have been controlled and no one is allowed to pass.”
Everyone looked at each other, and Guo Jia said: "The Wuwei Army has 10,000 troops, 8,000 have been dispatched, and there are 2,000 more who should be there to deal with emergencies.
This Chen arrives."
Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, the last thing he wanted to do was go out.
The city was too chaotic at this time, and the soldiers could hardly distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
The generals above killed whoever they said they wanted to kill, and some soldiers even lost control.
It was easiest to go out at this time.
Died at the hands of rebels.
On the street heading to Da Sima Mansion, Wu Zilan was rushing over with 3,000 men and horses, preparing to reinforce Li Meng, but he didn't know that Li Meng had already been killed, and the soldiers had all surrendered, so he was a step too late.
Suddenly, Wu Zilan reined in the war horse.
The trotting horse slowly slowed down and stopped.
Something was wrong.
He instinctively felt that there was something abnormal in the surrounding environment.
The three thousand men and horses behind him also stopped, and a captain stepped forward and asked: "General, what's the matter?"

"Don't you think there's something wrong with this street?
Look, we just came along and saw lights in some houses at intervals, but there's not a single light on this street.
If our army puts out the torches, It must be pitch black, you hear it, there isn't even a dog barking.
There are so many of us, there will be some movement at some point.
I don't believe there isn't even a dog on this street.
Get away with me, get out."
At this time, a loud shout came from the end of the street: "Wu Zilan, you are rebelling and you want to drag your soldiers to be buried with you?
All the soldiers on the other side listen, I am General Xu Huang of Jinwu.
Wu Zilan is rebelling, but you can't follow him."
You are just following orders to seek destruction.
If you put down your weapons now, I will inform the Great Sima that bygones are bygones."
Wu Zilan shouted: "Don't listen to his nonsense.
Liu Cheng has been killed in Yanmen.
I have been ordered by His Majesty to eradicate the remnants of Liu Cheng's party.
When the success is achieved, you will all be meritorious ministers."
Xu Huang shouted: "No matter what you say, it will not change the fact that you are rebelling.
Now you are surrounded by everyone.
If you resist stubbornly, you will only die."
As soon as Xu Huang finished speaking, a large number of arrows protruded from the windows of the houses on both sides of the street.
Wu Zilan's men were shocked.
Looking back, they saw that the retreat had been blocked
