Bang!
The muffled sound of things being smashed came from Taiji Palace, and the maids waiting outside immediately trembled.
"What is Li Zhiyun trying to do? Are you rebelling?" Angry voices rang out.
The Underworld Master walked over quickly. When he heard the voice inside, his cold gaze swept across the palace maids and guards. He reminded them,"Forget everything you heard just now. Don't tell anyone else, understand?”
These words could not be spread, especially not to Li Zhiyun.
"I will remember you, my lord, I will remember you.”The palace maids and guards seemed to have realized something, and their faces instantly turned pale.
They were all elders in the palace and knew a lot about the affairs of the palace.
They were well aware of the methods used in the palace to keep secrets.
The Underworld Master waved his hand." All palace maids, leave. Guards, stand guard a hundred meters away. No one is allowed to approach!"”
"Here!"
After giving his instructions, the Underworld Master walked into Taiji Palace.
After he went in, he saw that Yang You was still calm. The things that were broken were only a few teacups. Although his face was a little pale, he did not panic.
Yang You's performance satisfied the Underworld Master.
If Yang You showed a look of confusion, the Underworld Master would have to consider whether Yang You was worth assisting.
At this time when the Great Sui was in a precarious situation, if one did not have a calm mind in the face of danger and a firm mind.
Even if he was intelligent, he did not have the ability to turn the tide.
When Yang You saw the Underworld Master enter, he took a deep breath and barely calmed the anger and fear in his heart.
After calming down, he asked,"How is Master Yin now?"
" Li Zhiyun's 50,000-strong army shows no signs of going to Yu County. They are still heading toward Chang 'an. They are only a hundred miles away from Chang' an. According to their marching speed, they will reach Chang 'an by noon.”The Underworld Master solemnly introduced the situation he had found.
None of them had expected that they would order Li Zhiyun to attack Li Xiuning of Yu County.
After Li Zhiyun received the order, he did not go to Yu County. Instead, he led his troops to Chang 'an.
No one could guess what Li Zhiyun wanted to do.
"Master Yin, guess what Li Zhiyun wants to do. If he really attacks Chang 'an, can we stop him?”Yang You asked calmly.
It was rare for the Underworld Master to not be able to guess what Li Zhiyun was going to do.
He shook his head and said," Your Highness, I don't know what this guy wants to do either. According to my analysis, Li Zhiyun shouldn't attack Chang 'an at this time. If he does this, won't he be giving Li Yuan a free ride?" I don't think he's that stupid. As for whether he can defend Chang 'an Fortress and fight to the death, 50,000 people won't be able to break Chang' an. It's just that we'll suffer a lot of losses.”
Yang You's confidence gradually sank.
If Li Zhiyun really attacked, so what if he blocked Li Zhiyun? If he suffered heavy losses, would he be able to block Li Yuan?
Li Zhiyun was at most a young tiger.
Li Yuan, on the other hand, was a ferocious and cunning tiger that had been hiding and preparing for many years!
"What is Li Zhiyun trying to do!" Yang You clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with anger as he gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
There were still many people who couldn't guess Li Zhiyun's intentions.
In Chang 'an City, in the meeting hall of the Dou Mansion.
At this moment, the Dou Manor's meeting hall was already filled with people.
A young man could not hold his breath and asked anxiously,"Uncle Dou, what does Li Zhiyun want to do with Chang 'an?”
The young man who spoke was from the Guanlong Corporation, Yuan Yanjing, a member of the younger generation of the Yuan Consortium. According to seniority, he should be a generation older than Li Zhiyun, but he was only five or six years older than Li Zhiyun.
The foundation of the Yuan Clan was in Henan, and Yuan Yanjing was the representative of the Yuan Clan in Guanzhong.
This was the way the aristocratic families handled things.
Even though the Guanlong Group had decided to support Li Yuan.
However, to be on the safe side, they would not put all their eggs in one basket.
This was what every aristocratic family did. Their descendants would work for various forces.
In the future, no matter which faction took over the world, they would be able to benefit from it.
Li Yuan was just a heavy bet.
Just like the Dou family, the distant branch of the Dou family, Dou Jiande, was now a duke.
"Yeah, what does this guy want to do?”
"Dou Family Head, you have to make a decision now. What if this brat attacks Chang 'an?”
……
Yuan Yanjing took the lead, and the other representatives of the Guanlong Group spoke up one after another, waiting for Dou Wei to make a decision.
Dou Wei was the person with the highest status and seniority in Chang 'an, or rather, in the Guanlong Group in Guanzhong.
Dou Wei waited for everyone to calm down. He pondered for a while and said,"This brat is a wolf cub. He attacked our aristocratic families without hesitation in Heyang County.”
"He did very well, perfectly, but does he really take us for fools?" Dou Wei snorted coldly. Did he really think that we were so stupid that we didn't know that he was the one who set the fire? Even if he didn't put it there, he dared to divide our land. It can be seen how bold this boy is!”
" Once he really attacks Chang 'an, our families will not be spared. A cornered dog will do anything. That boy is now a starving wolf with no way out.”
"So, if he really attacks Chang 'an, we must help Yang You defend Chang' an. Of course, we have to wait for Yang You and that brat to fight until both sides are injured.”
Dou Wei made his decision. The others thought about it and expressed their agreement.
They did not want Li Zhiyun to get Chang 'an.
Dou Wei saw that everyone agreed to his plan and sneered in his heart,'Brat, you'd better attack Chang' an. When you and Yang You's forces are exhausted, I'll gather the guards of the various families and take over Chang 'an. At that time, Li Yuan will have to give me a high enough position if he wants to enter Chang' an!'
All the big families had private troops to protect their homes. Dou Wei wanted to take the opportunity to consolidate this force and seek a higher position in the future.
Dou Wei had always been brooding over the fact that the Dou family had not been elected as the representative of the Guanlong Group to fight for the world.
Right now, he could only settle for the next best thing and seek a more advantageous position in the future.
Li Zhiyun did not expect that he would lead the army to Chang 'an and trigger so many selfish schemes and plots.
At noon.
An army of 50,000 appeared five miles away from Chang 'an.
Chang 'an's city gate had long been closed. The Left Yi Guards under the control of the Underworld Master had already boarded the city tower. They were on guard against the approaching army like locusts.
For a moment, Chang 'an became even more tense. Even the people in the city seemed to have noticed something. The doors and windows of every house were closed, and the streets were empty.
