Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

It will be cloudy tonight.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, it was already dark.

In a secret room in the compound next to the Xicheng Bingmasi.

Chen Tao wore two layers of armor, chain mail and zebra mail. A sharp sword and a short-handled black iron dagger were hung around his waist.

He glanced sternly at the three people in front of him and explained in a deep voice:

"The Empress Dowager Shengde and Prince Rui colluded with Teng Anguo and plotted a rebellion with the commander of the Imperial Guards, Zheng Jun! Your Majesty fainted because of Concubine Rong's poisoning, and Commander-in-Chief Dou was also killed by Teng Anguo! Therefore, we, the loyal ministers, have no way out now. We must immediately organize our troops and go to the palace to defend the king!"

Yuanyuan was stunned.

The brothers Ma Guodong and Ma Guoliang were also shocked.

Tian Wenqing's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he said in a deep voice:
"Why did Concubine Rong rebel?"

Chen Tao sneered and said, "I was bewitched by Empress Dowager Shengde and thought that once your majesty's queen and the two princes died, Empress Dowager Shengde and Prince Rui would support the third prince!"

Tian Wenqing's heart was beating wildly, and he asked again:
"If your majesty, the queen, the queen mother, and the two princes have met with misfortune, what should we brothers do from now on?"

This guy wants to cause trouble too!
Chen Tao didn't keep it a secret: "I want to support the third prince!"

Tian Wenqing took a deep breath and confirmed it one last time:
"My lord, do you really think that the two princes will not be spared?"

Ma Guodong already understood, his heart was burning with excitement, and he stared at his mentor with burning eyes!
After his Jinxiang Houma family was stripped of their titles by the royal family, they had no hope of recovery for decades. As he was a collateral family, his life was naturally even more miserable. He had wasted 31 years until now!

And since there's a chance today, why not fight for it? Let's do it!
Chen Tao nodded firmly: "After this chaos tonight, Empress Dowager Shengde and Prince Rui's family will surely die. Empress Dowager Shengan, the emperor, the queen and her two princes will also be killed by the rebels and go to see the late emperor. And you have the merit of supporting him, and you will rise to the top!"

Tian Wenqing and Ma Guodong looked at each other and knelt down suddenly, saying in unison:
"Greetings, my lord!"

They are all traitors!
Seeing this, Ma Guoliang also knelt beside his brother.

Chen Tao asked them to stand up and then assigned them tasks. Speed ​​is of the essence and there is no room for delay.

After they left, Yuanyuan seemed to be getting to know Chen Tao again and asked, "Liang Han? Are you really Liang Han?"

Liang Han can't be that awesome.

Otherwise, how could Molan be the villain?
While Chen Tao was tidying up her armor, he gently asked, "Are you Zheng Yuan?"

Yuanyuan shed tears: "Why have you been hiding this from me?"

Chen Tao pinched her face: "Because I want to give you a surprise."

Yuanyuan threw herself into his arms: "It's obviously a shock, why are you rebelling?"

"I want you to be the queen. It's a rare opportunity for us to travel through time, and to a world of female-oriented novels. Of course, we shouldn't just experience the so-called house fights. Once we have the chance, we have to upgrade to palace fights!"

"Hate it! I won't fight! I want to go back and prepare for the college entrance exam."

"College entrance exam? Great! I like young student girls. If Minglan wasn't the heroine, I wouldn't bother marrying her."

"How old are you?"

"As old as you."

"I don't believe it! Husband, rebellion is very dangerous, let's elope!"

"Just because of that word 'husband', I will make you the queen! Don't worry, I have a photographic memory. I have read the original novel and know that this palace coup was the emperor's fault. It is my destiny to take over the throne! I will be another Zhao Da if I wear the yellow robe!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you. At worst, I'll die with you! But there's one thing. If you really succeed, you're not allowed to have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines!"

"Ah."

"you swear!"

"You have no joke."

"Pfft~ What's your original name?"

"My surname is Chen, and my given name is Tao."

"Tao? It's the water radical, so our son will be named Liang Tao. My daughter's name will be the grass radical, but I have the character Yuan, so how should I name her?"

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Just follow me tonight. With my martial arts, I can definitely protect you. After the success, everyone will support you to take the throne. Molan and Minglan are not worthy of competing with you."

"Hiss, now that you mention it, will something happen to the Sheng family?"

"What's there to be afraid of? If you murder your mother-in-law as a daughter-in-law, you should be punished. Helping you is just a side job."

"Hubby~If one day, we both travel back in time, will you look for me?"

"No. Because what I like most is to go out to sea on a yacht and have a party with a dozen beauties from all over the world. If I go to you, will you allow me to join in?"

"Pervert! Let me kiss you! Then we can be husband and wife and conquer the world together!"

Hurry up and fight. After the fight, Yuanyuan still has a lot to ask Chen Tao! Tonight's rebellion is more exciting than knowing that Chen Tao is also a time traveler!

A moment of Xu.

The sudden fire in the Huangji Palace was obviously some kind of signal.

Outside the Xi'an Gate, Chen Tao personally led fifty cavalrymen to charge out and killed the feint attack troops arranged by Teng Anguo. After all, their combat focus was in the east, and they were preparing to meet up with Empress Dowager Shengde in Renshou Palace, and then kill their way to the Qianqing Palace.

After the enemy was killed, the loyal minister Chen Tao immediately ordered the guard to open the gate.

The guard was an acquaintance of his. Now that something was happening in the palace, and he had heard that the emperor wanted to take Qing back and restore his position, how could he dare to neglect him? He immediately let him into the city.

It doesn’t matter if they don’t let go. At worst, Chen Tao can just use a cheat, climb over the wall and kill all the defenders at the same time.

One hundred and twenty cavalrymen and five hundred infantrymen entered the palace.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war. Chen Tao did not waste time talking to the defenders and led his troops directly to charge eastwards. He marched unhindered all the way under the banner of protecting the emperor. After crossing the Yuhe Bridge, he headed straight for the Xuanwu Gate.

Wei Dongting was anxious, but he did not dare to leave his post. When he saw Chen Tao leading people to rescue him, he was overjoyed and quickly brought him into the palace.

Chen Tao still didn't say much, just gave a brief talk, and then asked his good friend to guard the city gate tightly and not let any suspicious rebels in.

After that, is there anything else to say?
Zheng Jun accidentally learned that Teng'anguo had rebelled and had already reunited with Empress Dowager Shengde. After being confused, he chose to take advantage of the situation and led his army to join the rebellion, waiting for an opportunity to capture the mastermind.

Chen Tao boosted the morale and shot the traitor Zheng Jun's deputy general to death with one arrow, and then rushed to the Qianqing Palace first.

He held a mace and attacked wildly without any hindrance, cursing "traitor, die!" The hundreds of defenders, seeing how powerful he was and how difficult it was to organize a resistance at night without their leader, fled in panic.

Ma Guodong understood what he meant, so he asked his brother to follow Chen Tao, while he led most of the troops to pretend to chase and kill, but in fact they were to assemble and wait behind the Jianji Hall.

Dark clouds cover the moon.

Chen Tao pushed the door open and found the target.

Empress Dowager Sheng An and Empress Shen, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, all looked shocked. There were also two old eunuchs holding two princes and were about to leave through the secret passage.

The emperor lay in bed, still unconscious.

In addition, there were two eunuchs and four palace maids serving.

In this case, there was no need for Chen Tao to waste time talking to them. He simply went forward with his sword and bone flower in hand to do the work.

Because it was too bloody, Chen Tao didn't let Yuanyuan in to watch.

Anyway, when Chen Tao came out, he covered his face and cried, "The traitor killed the emperor, and we were all one step late!" Ma Guoliang shouted, "Commander, let's fight them and avenge the emperor!"

The other dozen people roared.

How could such a good emperor be killed by a traitor? I can't stand it! I must take revenge!
Yuanyuan's scalp was tingling.

House fight? Fight your mother!

She even participated in the regicide, so how could she be interested in house fighting or palace fighting!

The army that mourns will win.

Chen Tao and Ma Guodong joined together to fight the BOSS.

There is no doubt that the more than 2,000 soldiers under Zheng Jun and the thousands of mobs summoned by Teng Anguo are indeed a trouble.

But it doesn’t matter. Chen Tao’s martial arts is much stronger than Wen Yuan’s, enough to lead hundreds of Cricket people to win the battle.

He is a loyal minister who has the righteousness to avenge his king, so the number of people under his command will only increase as the battles go on!

The dark clouds dissipated and the moonlight was bright.

To the east of Ciqing Palace, just as Zheng Jun was about to approach Empress Dowager Shengde, Chen Tao rushed out and yelled at the top of his lungs:

"Zheng Jun! You bastard! How did His Majesty treat you so well? Yet you colluded with the rebel king! Get away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful arrow shot from a two-and-a-half-stone strong bow accurately hit Zheng Jun's right eye.

At the same time, he rode forward, wielding his mace like a windmill, and swept away all the soldiers in front of him.

To be honest, Chen Tao's beloved horse named Chiji is very good, but it still cannot bring out his strengths, otherwise he could use a mace weighing hundreds of pounds.

"Form, form a formation..."

Teng Anguo, the only one who was good at commanding, couldn't finish his words because he was shot in the mouth by the unlucky Yuanyuan, and then his head was smashed by the flying bone thrown by Chen Tao.

If a husband and wife are truly of one mind, they can accomplish anything.

Seeing this, the Ma brothers each brandished their sabers and howled, "Kill, kill, kill all the traitors and establish the King of Anyang!"

Empress Dowager Shengde would not accept death and screamed:

"Kill them quickly! When King Rui ascends the throne, everyone will be made a marquis!"

What the hell!

Isn't it to let my son ascend the throne?
Concubine Rong's mind went blank.

Just by looking at her figure, you can tell that her initial attributes have too many points added to a certain aspect, making her too biased.

"How dare you, old thief, talk too much!"

Chen Tao roared, snatched the spear that was stabbing at him, and then threw it hard in the direction of Empress Dowager Shengde.

With a puff, Empress Dowager Shengde and the soldiers standing in front of her were pierced together.

Yuanyuan once again used her good luck and shot an arrow at King Rui's shoulder. Although the arrow was not very lethal, it caused great psychological panic.

Ma Guodong shouted, "The Empress Dowager Shengde and the rebel king have surrendered. Do you still want to resist to the end? Surrender immediately and I promise not to hold you accountable. You can't see anyone clearly tonight. You can either go back or rebel right here and follow us to defend the king!"

The other soldiers also shouted.

The merit of suppressing the rebellion! The merit of supporting the emperor!
An arrow flew across and hit the old horse.

Chen Tao slashed the dangerous arrow away with a knife.

Ma Guodong said enthusiastically: "The commander is truly brave like a king, a god descended from heaven! Kill! Kill all these traitors!"

As he spoke, a guard who knew Chen Tao knocked down his superior, and together with the others surrounded Concubine Rong and the Third Prince, shouting:
"Brother Han! We have surrendered!"

As soon as he said this, it caused a chain reaction, and thousands of mobs fled.

Chen Tao laughed loudly and did not say anything about staying where he was. Instead, he wanted these people to slip away so that he could use this incident to conduct a large-scale raid and kill all the traitors who opposed him.

So he continued to kill until he reached Rong Fei and her son.

Ma Guoliang brought Prince Rui to Chen Tao's side:
"Commander, the Rebel King is still alive!"

Prince Rui was “intelligent and clever”, and indeed was a handsome boy. The shot in the shoulder by Yuanyuan was not fatal.

Chen Tao looked at it for a few more seconds, and then there was a flash of a knife, and the head flew straight up diagonally.

Concubine Rong turned pale and screamed.

Ma Guoliang, this bastard, came forward with a knife in hand, looking murderous, like Yuchi Gong who was going to report his safety to Li Yuan, and said in a rough voice:

"Command! Your Majesty and the two princes were killed by the traitors, and Concubine Rong and the third prince were involved in the rebellion..."

"Be careful with your words! General, be careful with your words!"

Comrade Tian Wenqing, a loyal official on duty and a compiler of the Imperial Academy, squeezed in with his two weak-legged colleagues, bowed to Chen Tao, and said fearlessly:
"General Liang! I want to ask you, how does His Majesty treat you?"

Chen Tao's face was filled with sorrow. "Your Majesty promoted me first, and recently when I was in trouble, you took advantage of me and reinstated me! Your kindness is as deep as the sea, and I cannot repay you even a little even if I die! The only way to repay you is to fight to the death and kill all these traitors!"

Tian Wenqing said loudly: "General, since you are so loyal, how can you be disrespectful to His Majesty's only blood? Rong Fei lives deep in the palace, it is difficult for her to judge people, or she may be coerced by the traitor, how can you accuse her of a crime? The third prince is only seven years old, how could he be a traitor!"

Hearing this, Concubine Rong's pale face finally regained its color and she defended herself, "Yes! I was coerced by Empress Dowager Shengde and Prince Rui! She also said before that she wanted Prince Rui to ascend the throne, so why would I conspire with them!"

Chen Tao frowned.

Rong Fei was uneasy. She was really frightened by Chen Tao's bravery. He dared to charge and kill thousands of people with only a few hundred men, and killed Empress Dowager Shengde neatly and swiftly, and then decisively killed Prince Rui in front of her. He was more terrifying than ten tigers!
The whole audience was silent.

Tian Wenqing saw that the atmosphere was right, and bowed to Concubine Rong and said:

"My lady, please spare me a moment to talk!"

He has always been very low-key, so not many people know about his relationship with Chen Tao. He can completely serve as Rong Fei's confidant.

Around the moment of Zizheng, the loyal and great Right Pillar of the State, Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Grand Commander of the Governor's Office and Minister of War Chen Tao, captured and executed Liu Zhengjie of the Northern Pacification Office and a group of heartless traitors who had disregarded the emperor's grace, and then completely took over the Bingmasi, Imperial Guards, Beijing Camp, Jinyiwei (called Zhaowei in the book), and Patrol Camp, and basically controlled the main armed forces in the capital!

After that, he fought all night long, sending people to "protect" the ministers and other important officials. At the same time, he issued a military order, ordering the Ma brothers to lead people to confiscate property and earn military funds.

Since they wanted to kill the descendants of Empress Dowager Shengde, the emperor in the book became cowardly after he recovered from his illness and did not dare to carry out the purge again.

The emperor's lineage must also be killed.

This is not surprising.

If Teng Anguo, a minister in the palace, could rebel, who else couldn't rebel? Uncle Shen would also rebel!
The emperor reprimanded him before, and Empress Shen was also reprimanded. In this case, isn't she worried that the emperor will change his mind, depose the empress, and make the third prince the crown prince?

Zheng Jun's younger brother Zheng Xiao married the Queen's sister, so they conspired to pretend to surrender to the Rebel King, and when the Emperor was killed, they turned against him and killed the Rui King, then killed the Third Prince, and supported the Queen and others!

Isn't this also rebellion?

Chen Tao's loyalty is known to all as the sun and the moon. He will avenge His Majesty to the end!
