Chapter 613 Caught the inner ghost

"No!" Cui Pu waved his hand immediately, "I'm exhausted, I'm not in the mood to talk to them."

Hu San then went out to answer.

The Tubo army yelled for a long time, but they didn't see Cui Pu coming out, so they sent someone out to mock him, but there was still no response from the city gate, so they stopped talking.

But on the second day, another person came over there, still insisting on talking to Cui Pu.Still rejected by Cui Pu.

"That group of people are insidious and cunning, and they don't know what kindness, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness are. They lured me out because they saw that I was the soul-suppressing stone of the city defenders. If they don't get rid of me, even if we only have one person left , They can’t attack. So now they want to kill me, capture the thief first!” Cui Pu sneered, “I won’t give them this chance!”

Mu Jiaojiao thought so deeply.

"Now you are everyone's reassurance. You must protect yourself. With you here, everyone can hold a breath and fight against Tubo to the end. If you are not here, then everyone's hearts that have been so easy to get together will be completely dispersed."

"I know." Cui Pu nodded.

Next, seeing that he was not fooled, the Tubo army launched several more attacks.But the officers and soldiers defending the city defended to their death, in exchange for great casualties, the city gate continued to be closed.

"There are less than 300 people left." Leaning in Mu Jiaojiao's arms, Cui Pu closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"It's been No. 13 days, brother Guo is coming soon." Mu Jiaojiao put his arms around him and whispered in his ear.

"Yes, according to their footsteps, they should arrive in these two days." Cui Pu sighed, arching his head on Mu Jiaojiao's shoulders, "Do you know? I have confronted Tubo and Turks no less than a hundred times before, and then I have been entangled with the Anshi rebels for seven years, but I have never felt so tired. These thirteen days seem to me to be longer than my entire life. Every moment seems to be stretched out desperately. I can't make it through. Tell me, am I getting old?"

"You finally found out? I thought you should have realized this fact a long time ago." Mu Jiaojiao nodded solemnly.

"Yeah, I should have realized it earlier, but I refuse to accept my old age! I have tossed myself to this point. It's my own fault!" Cui Pu shook his head, then leaned against her and giggled again.

"However, even if you are old, it is not a bad thing to have you by your side."

Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly, reached out and stroked the top of his head a few times.

When the two were talking, Xiao Si'er's low voice came from outside.Mu Jiaojiao then raised his head: "Come in!"

Xiao Si'er came in in a hurry, gave them a hasty salute, and said: "Master, lady, the soldiers who were patrolling the street today caught a young man, and found some pieces of cloth with strange symbols drawn on him. , please take a look."

Cui Pu took a look, and immediately sneered.

"Okay, okay, okay!" He said a few good words, and then stood up suddenly, "To this day, I can be regarded as letting me catch this ghost! Who is the master of this person, have you found it?"

"Found it, he is a servant in Guangwu Palace."

"King Guangwu... Li Chenghong, brother of Princess Jincheng, grandson of Crown Prince Zhanghuai, son of King Bin, great-grandson of Emperor Zetian." Cui Pu nodded, then waved his hand, "Go, tie me King Guangwu! And the family members sent to us by King Guangwu are all tied up too!"

"Lang Jun, King Guangwu is the king of the county and the clan, can we tie him up?" Xiao Si'er asked in a low voice.

"It's this time, what do you think I can't do? Now I want to become emperor in Chang'an city, and no one dares to stop me!" Cui Pu said coldly.

Although he was not angry, the icy demeanor exuding from his whole body was even more penetrating than when he was angry.Xiao Si'er trembled, and hurried out to find someone.

Soon, the people sent by King Guangwu were tied up.Then, King Guangwu was also tied up and sent to Cui Pu.

"King of Hanyang, what do you mean? This king is also a clan after all, and he is also a county king with you. What right do you have to treat this king like this? Could it be that you want to use this king as a sacrifice to surrender to Tubo?" Cui Pu was facing each other, King Guangwu glared and shouted extremely loudly.

It's a pity that Cui Pu has done many tricks such as planting and framing in the past, which is not comparable to this person in front of him.Seeing him solemnly putting on airs in front of his eyes now, he just finds it amused.

"King Guangwu, don't you know who is colluding with Tubo to seek the throne of my new Tang Dynasty?" Liang Liang said, and he said, "Bring everyone in!"

Immediately, he saw that the servants of the Guangwu Palace who had been captured outside before, as well as more than a dozen dirty soldiers were brought in.

Seeing this, King Guangwu's expression changed drastically. "King Hanyang, what do you mean?"

"Hush!" Cui Pu made a silent gesture to him, "Don't talk, just listen to them."

Then he winked at the people standing in a row. "Which one of you will come first? I don't need to invite you one by one for this matter, right?"

If they had only heard of Cui Pu's reputation before, but after more than ten days, the group of soldiers witnessed Cui Pu's fortitude and courage, as well as his cold-blooded and completely inhumane attitude when dealing with the enemy.As long as Cui Pu is around, everyone can't help but respect him and bow their heads to him.One of his orders is to ask people to hold their heads up to die, and everyone will rush forward without hesitation!

So now, hearing what Cui Pu said, they were shocked.Those people with ghosts in their hearts were even more weak in their legs, and they almost couldn't stand up.

In less than a cup of tea, someone couldn't bear it anymore, and knelt softly in front of Cui Pu: "The king, calm down! Your family members are all in the hands of King Guangwu. If your subordinates don't do things according to his orders, He is going to kill his whole family! This subordinate really has nothing to do, that's why... this subordinate deserves to die, this subordinate is ashamed of his concern for the county king these past few days, this subordinate will kill himself, and will never dirty your hands!"

After all, he directly drew a knife and killed himself.

Seeing this, the blood on King Guangwu's face faded away.

And with the beginning of one person, the others finally couldn't bear it, so they confessed honestly one after another.

It turned out that before the Tubo army arrived in Chang'an, King Guangwu heard the news that the saint had fled in a hurry, so he quietly sent a letter to the Tubo general. The two discussed in private that he would lead the Tubo army and help them capture Chang'an. , the Tubo army supported him as emperor.As a result, who would have thought that the sage was gone, and most of the generals who shined in the Anshi Rebellion were released from Chang'an far away, but Cui Pu, who was not doing his job properly and seemed to be focusing on his wife, stood up at this time. Get up and lead the old, weak, sick and disabled in Chang'an City to guard Chang'an!
After he found out, he naturally cursed all eighteen generations of Cui Pu's ancestors in private.However, when he saw that every household sent their guards to act as city guards, he had an idea and picked out a team of 50 people to send them there.But among the 50 people, there are ten confidantes whom he stuffed in purposely and secretly passed the news to Tubo.

Every time there is a battle with Tubo, these people will throw down the cloth strips carrying information together with boulders and other objects.When the Tubo people packed up their dead bodies, they were able to take the news back together.

I thought that with the cooperation of myself and the Tubo army, Chang'an would be easy to win.Unexpectedly, Cui Pu was so powerful that even with this group of stragglers, he could hold on for more than ten days!Not only that, he was able to dig himself out!
Now that the old bottom has been exposed, King Guangwu also changed his righteous indignation and said with a sneer: "My grandfather is Prince Zhanghuai. If it weren't for the Queen of Heaven who made trouble back then, the throne should have been passed on to me. ! Now I'm just using a little trick to get back what belongs to me, what's wrong?"

Snapped!
As soon as the voice fell, a loud slap came over.Not only did he lose half of his teeth, but also half of King Guangwu's face swelled rapidly.

"What's wrong? Are you ashamed to ask what's wrong? There are so many things wrong! Just because you put the lives of many people in Chang'an at risk for your own selfishness, the throne is destined not to fall on you! Everyone in your Li family is not a good person, and your heart is even worse! Let me tell you, as long as I, Cui Pu, am here, I will never let your treachery succeed!" Cui Pu shouted loudly .

He was really driven crazy by this group of people.

From Xuanzong, who misled the country because of his beauty, to Suzong, who was cowardly and uninitiated, to the saint who has the heart of ZTE and the new Tang Dynasty, but is always on guard against others in his heart, so that the current crisis of his family and country is still playing against himself. The small-minded Guangwu King, the anger he had accumulated for many years burst out in a single brain.

Why not let him meet a Mingjun?His wish in this life is obviously very simple, that is to do some practical things for the common people, and let his name leave a mark in the history, and he is satisfied.Step by step to today, in fact, everything is not what he wants.

But he has been carrying it until now, out of love for this country and nostalgia for the land where he grew up.But what did these people give him in return?
If he had known this, he might as well have been a dandy from the beginning, maybe he is fleeing the war with his family, and he is still thinking about how to eat, drink and have fun when he returns to Chang'an.If you are a heartless person, you don't have to be so sad.

"Your Majesty, please calm down!" Hu San didn't expect that he started to attack before he could say a few words, and hurried forward to stop him.

Xiao Si'er and the others also rushed to persuade them.

It's easy to talk about it, so that Cui Pu's anger can be calmed down a little.

"Tie up this group of people and don't let them die. The next time Tubo comes to attack the city, throw them down. How many Tubo troops can be killed!" Cui Pu said angrily.

As soon as the words fell, a report came from outside: "Jun Wang, the general of Tubo is calling again!"

"It's really time to come!" Cui Pu sneered, and immediately turned around, "Go, take them, let's go meet them!"
