This time, the soldiers guarding the city hid faster than anyone else. They even rolled on the spot and were almost trampled by horse hooves. The Taoist officials on the city tower did not dare to say anything unnecessary.

Because the man who entered the city was wearing the uniform of a commander of the imperial army. There were even a few sharp arrows stuck in his armor, and a half-moon green dragon halberd in his hand was stained with blood.

It wasn't until they were about to break into the palace that any of the Forbidden Army generals dared to ask questions.

"The Lang of Yushan wished Yongqing a special gift of riding a horse in the palace."

The palace door opened wide, and Zhu Yongqing rode his horse into the palace. When he arrived outside the imperial garden, he saw the emperor's personal eunuch standing there. He hurriedly reined in the horse's head, lost the halberd in his hand, dismounted, and rushed into the garden to report.

"Official!"

Zhu Yongqing's armor leaves were shining brightly, and he knelt down to salute.

Emperor Tianming was not surprised and asked straight to the point: "I sent you to investigate the fact that the eunuch who announced the decree did not report back. How did you come back in such a mess? Could it be..."

The emperor's face darkened, "Did Han Shizhong openly rebel too?!"

Since Han Shizhong sent someone to report to Bianliang, claiming that the Liao army was invading, he fought back and chased across the boundary river.

In the past few days, the imperial court has sent six groups of troops to the border army, all with imperial edicts, telling Han Shizhong not to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, and to continue stationed on this side of the border river without pursuit.

At the beginning, the words were sincere and comforting, but later they became stern, ordering Han Shizhong not to act rashly.

However, none of the six groups of eunuchs who announced the edict came back, and no news was sent back to Bianliang.

"After the last general received the decree, he went out of the city to investigate along the road. Before he reached the halfway point to the border river, he saw the corpses of six groups of eunuchs one after another. Some died from sorcery, some died from swords and guns, and the imperial edicts were all torn apart.

Cracked and thrown aside, it looked as if it had been done by local rebels."

Zhu Yongqing's voice was sad and he said angrily, "After the general led his men to bury their bodies, he prepared to deliver the order to the border troops in person. Unexpectedly, he was surrounded and killed by the Liao army."

The emperor said: "Liao army?!"

"Exactly."

Zhu Yongqing pulled out an arrow from his body and said, "Although they are all dressed up as Song people, the swords and guns they use are unique to the elite generals of the Liao army."

"Especially the Mahulaka arrows among the eight heavenly dragon guardian arrows, which can only be used by the general himself."

The emperor stretched out his hand to suck the arrow, stared at it for a few breaths, and then said with unpredictable emotions: "I heard that the generals of the border army often exchanged arrows with Liao generals across the water in their spare time. Han Shizhong's men should also have a lot of them.

The arrows of the Liao Kingdom."

Zhu Yongqing was stunned: "Is it really..."

The emperor raised his hand to stop Zhu Yongqing's words.

"Han Liangchen will not betray the Song Dynasty."

Emperor Tianming crushed the arrow in his hand, and his expression returned to calmness, "As long as the Emperor of the Song Dynasty comes in front of him, he will not betray him."

Zhu Yongqing was astonished and confused: "The officials want to personally..."
