On a sleepless night in Yecheng, there were fires flashing in the city, and soldiers were everywhere on the streets. The people hid at home in horror, holding their breath and listening to the movements outside. Whenever the shouts and scolding sounded, they would tremble.

Today, when there was a war outside the city, many people were thinking about going out to watch and see how lively the war was. Now that the two sides of the war decided the victory and the defeat of the Chang'an court, the soldiers and horses rushed into the city, the people realized that the disaster might come, so they naturally changed their minds.

From time to time, soldiers rushed into a certain courtyard and captured the men, women, young and old. Prayers sounded, and then cried loudly. It is conceivable that the arrested person would not have a good end.

So the neighbors were afraid that they would be implicated, and listened to the movements on the streets uneasy. Even the janitors who kept barking when they heard the movements on weekdays, but none of them dared to say a word at this time.

Among the people coming and going outside, many people are filled with the smell of blood. For dogs with a keen sense of smell, it is like beasts wandering outside. No dog dares to expose their position to avoid causing danger.

This is true for dogs and people. In a yard, the owner's family hid in the dormitory. Hearing a large number of footsteps outside the yard, he became closer and closer to his home. When the footsteps approached the gate of the yard, the people in the room were extremely frightened.

With a "bang", the gate of the courtyard was knocked open, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer to the door. The owner of the house opened the door tremblingly, but saw that it was as bright as daylight: a large number of soldiers were holding torches and looking at him with a fierce look.

The iron knife in the soldiers' hands was shining brightly by the fire. The owner couldn't help but feel weak when he saw it. The wife behind him was so scared that her face was pale. The child was panicked and hugged Ah Niang's legs.

Several soldiers rushed up to catch people, grabbed the owner's family like a chicken, and were about to tie up and walk out. Now that things have come, the owner's tongue is tied and can't speak. A general led the team stepped forward, grabbed the owner's hair bun and pulled it back:

"Li Chenyu is right! He is helping the evildoer! The family will go to prison tonight to wake up!"

After saying that, the general was about to signal the soldiers to tie up people, but the owner of the house stared at him and shouted: "I, I, I, I am not Li Chenyu!"

"No? Don't make a quibble!"

A man rushed over, and was sweating profusely. Seeing the owner of the housekeeper being escorted by the soldiers, he hurried to the general: "General! You're wrong, you've walked into the wrong door, Li Chenyu's family is next door!"

"Hmm? This is not..." The general was stunned when he heard this, looked at the owner who was almost crying, then looked at the next door, and then ordered: "Go and go and catch people next door!"

The soldiers who rushed in quickly left the yard and rushed to the next door to catch people. There was only the owner who survived the disaster in the yard, holding his wife and children, choking with each other speechlessly. This feeling of escaping from death was really exciting.

Listening to the shouts and cries from next door, the family cried with joy, saying that the Buddha would bless the family and make the family safe and peaceful. In the future, the situation would be calm and said that they would not burn many incense to fulfill their wishes.

Similar scenes continued to occur everywhere in the city. The Yuwen army in Yecheng began to search for the remnants of the Yuchi family and control important places in various places.

In the imperial palace, the Tai Chi Hall was brightly lit, and a large number of soldiers stood inside and outside the Tai Chi Hall with torches. The terrified eunuch lighted many candles, illuminating the hall as if it were daytime. Yu Wenming, the commander of the army, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar hall and remembered the past.

He had come to Yecheng several times and bowed to the emperor in this Tai Chi Hall. The last time he entered the hall was more than two years ago.

That year, the Sui Kingdom was destroyed and the emperor was about to get married. Yu Wenming, a royal family member, and his father, King Qi, Yu Wenliang, came to the capital to congratulate him. As a result, King Yuchi Jiong of Shu died and the emperor's marriage was postponed.

Since then, Yu Wenming has not come back after leaving Yecheng, and now he has come back, but he is standing in the Tai Chi Hall as another identity, standing in front of a corpse.

A young man fell on the imperial stairs. Yu Wenming looked at the dead pseudo-emperor and shook his head.

According to the Yecheng court, this person was the emperor Yuwen Weicheng, but in fact he was just a fake, because Yu Wenming knew that his cousin (nephew) Yuwen Weicheng was now in Xiyang, Huangzhou.

The fake ones are fake. Even if you look at it, this person looks a bit like Yuwen Weicheng and has a similar figure, but if you look closely, you can tell that it is not himself.

This unlucky pseudo-emperor probably knew that he had no way to live, so he committed suicide by wielding a knife, so that the eunuchs who wanted to capture him lost a chance to make meritorious service.

Yu Wenming admired the other party's decisiveness, and at the same time he also had some regrets, because the Shu Concubine, the Concubine and the Shu King had already set themselves on fire in the royal palace and he could not capture anyone alive.

Some regrets have nothing to do with the overall situation, and what Yu Wenming saw in front of him was the end of the loser. Of course, if the other party is afraid of death, he can still choose to survive and live in a humble manner. The choice of the three generations of the Wang family's grandparents is a relief for him.

Yu Wenming asked someone to clean up the body of the pseudo-emperor and put it in a coffin. After all, this is one of the ironclad evidence of the Yuchi family's great rebellion. He could let the captured or surrendered pseudo-logical officials of Yecheng look at what the emperor they bowed to every day.

Yecheng is the old nest of Yuchi. Now he has been recovered by his own troops. Yu Wenming said that it is false that he is not excited. However, when he saw the body of the pseudo-emperor and heard about the ending of the three generations of the concubines and grandchildren of Shu, he felt inexplicably sighed.

If he was still in Chang'an in the spring and summer ten years ago, he would probably have been massacred by Yang Jian like other royal families.

If the Yuchi army conquered Chang'an, then the fate of his family might not be much better. The fate of the loser has been staged over and over again over the past decades, making people feel mixed.

So, I must not become a loser!

Yu Wenming thought so, turned around and walked out of the hall, and came to him with a few flattering eunuchs holding a few boxes in their hands, and there were many books.

The box contains all kinds of jade seals used by the pseudo-emperor, and the most precious of them is of course the imperial seal.

When Yu Wenming and his father invaded Chang'an, they obtained the imperial seal in the palace. He looked at it carefully at that time, and now he saw it again, and soon he was sure that the imperial seal was real.

After ordering people to carefully collect the imperial seal and several jade seals, Yu Wenming looked through the account books.

This is the account book of the palace, which records the number of rare treasures and common instruments in the palace. The eunuchs in charge of the accounts wanted to please the winners. Yu Wenming was too lazy to talk nonsense to these eunuchs. After a few words of scenes, he ordered him to take the officers and soldiers to seal the warehouse.

At the same time, palace maids and eunuchs should be kept in charge, and soldiers should not be allowed to do anything wrong.

Yu Wenming was not blinded by victory. In this palace, he was not the real master, so he had to act with a proper attitude. He could not move things that should not be moved, nor could he indulge soldiers to rob the things in the palace or rape the palace maids, so as not to be taken to cause trouble in the future.

At the same time, he sent a team of troops to guard the Shu King's Tomb outside Yecheng to prevent anyone from going around and destroying the Shu King's Tomb.

Therefore, the merits and demerits of King Yuchi Jiong of Shu must be decided by the court.

All the arrangements that should be made have been made. Yu Wenming stood in front of the hall, looking at the magnificent palace, and looking at the night sky of Yecheng with fire, he couldn't help but find a god.
