Li Zhao was sweating profusely, whipping his mount to urge the horse to run faster, and his face was panicked, looking behind him from time to time.

The armor on his body was already in tatters, and many sword marks could be clearly seen on the armor.

The reason why Li Zhao was so embarrassed was because he was running for his life.

Not only him, but also more than a thousand people beside him, who were also fleeing for their lives. They all looked nervous, and they didn't dare to stop for a moment, eager to grow a third leg.

Why did you flee? Because the rebellion failed. As soon as he thought of this, Li Zhao was angry.

Today's "Li Zhao" is not the "Li Zhao" of the past. He was originally a company executive in the 21st century, who happened to have the same name as the original, accidentally got into a car accident, and then inexplicably traveled to this strange era. And the original body was in a hurry yesterday, and accidentally fell off the horse and hit his head. When he woke up, this Li Zhao was no longer the original Li Zhao.

As for where the original body went, it is estimated that he went to Li Zhao's original world.

From the memory of the original body, Li Zhao learned that if it is today, it is divided into two. The Wei state occupied the north of the Great River, and the Qi State occupied the south of the Great River, including Hanzhong and Shu.

Although the territory of Wei was larger than that of Qi, because of a turmoil fifty years ago, the imperial court actually only controlled Guanzhong, Hedong, Luoyang and other places, and most of the other places were actually controlled by local jiedu envoys.

The current Emperor of Great Wei ascended the throne 25 years ago and changed his name to "Tiancheng". Emperor Li Kun of Tiancheng was a male lord, and after succeeding to the throne, he made great efforts to suppress eunuchs and rectify the army. Then he sent a forbidden army to send troops from Tongguan to recover Luoyang and the surrounding areas in one fell swoop, and then took Hedong and killed 80,000 Hedong rebels.

The repeated victories of the forbidden army made the Kwantung envoys feel fearful and worried that they would become the next target of the imperial court. They played one after another, expressing their loyalty to the imperial court.

Emperor Li Kun of Tiancheng successfully reversed the unfavorable situation of the Great Wei court in the early days of his succession, but he still faced many difficulties in recovering the entire Kwantung region.

Li Kun has just passed 60 this year, and although he usually pays attention to maintenance, his body still can't avoid gradual aging.

Seeing that the emperor has more and more gray hair, the competition for the throne among the princes is becoming increasingly fierce.

Li Kun had issued an edict ten years ago and canonized Li You, the son of the empress, as the crown prince of Great Wei. As a son-in-law, Li You is justifiable, and Li You treats people well and fairly, and his evaluation in the court has always been good.

But some people are not convinced and are still ambitious for the throne. This person is Li Kun's eldest son, Li Qi.

Before Li Kun ascended the throne, the side concubine had an eldest son, Li Qi. The reason why there is a "Qi" in the name is because Li Kun hopes to destroy the Qi country in the future and dominate the world. It can be seen that Li Kun has great expectations for Li Qi.

In terms of Li Qi's education, when he was six years old, Li Kun specially recruited the great Confucian of the dynasty to teach him, and also selected strong martial arts in the army to teach him martial arts. Li Kun's attention made Li Qi think for a long time that he would inherit Li Kun's throne in the future.

Who would have thought that when Li Qi was eleven years old, the queen became pregnant and gave birth to her sister-in-law Li You. Li Qi was not born to the empress, but a concubine, although he was the eldest son, he still had no chance to be on the throne. As other concubines also gave birth to princes one after another, Li Qi's hope of succeeding to the throne became more and more slim.

After Li You was crowned the crown prince, perhaps to compensate Li Qi. Li Kun named Li Qi as the king of Yong, and made the entire Huainan as Li Qi's fief.

Even so, Li Qi was still very dissatisfied and even angry. What are you kidding, Huainan is not only far away from Chang'an, but also not in the hands of the imperial court at all, and is controlled by the local Jiedu envoys.

If it weren't for the fact that Huainan was too close to Qi and worried about being attacked on both sides, Huainan would have rebelled long ago. Li Kun set up Li Qi's fief here, which is equivalent to writing a blank check.

As Li Qi became more and more resentful towards Emperor Li Kun in his heart. In his own mansion, he often said that the throne should be his. This also had a great impact on Li Qi's eldest son, Li Zhao, physically and mentally.

There must be a father and a son, and the original Li Zhao is also an ambitious lord, just seventeen this year, and already has a wife and a concubine.

Li Zhao thought that if his father became the emperor, he would not become the crown prince, and he would also be the emperor in the future. Li Zhao also thought about the emperor's addiction, so in private, he recruited talented people from the people everywhere for the use of the Yongwang Mansion.

Li Qi, the king of Yong, was not idle, and secretly befriended the generals of the forbidden army and important ministers in the court. He promised that when he ascended the throne in the future, he would be reused. Li Qi knew in his heart that unless the crown prince died suddenly, the emperor would never pass on the throne to him. He also thought about sending someone to assassinate the prince, or giving the prince something miserable in his meal, and he would not wake up after eating, but he failed repeatedly.

The father and son, in the matter of rebellion, have fallen into the devil, and they are getting farther and farther, and there is no turning back at all.

One day, King Yong's Mansion learned that the crown princess gave birth to another son, and a banquet would be held in the East Palace in the evening to celebrate the event, and Li Kun, the son of heaven, would also be there.

As soon as the father and son combined, they felt that this was an opportunity to destroy the emperor and the crown prince together, and then King Yong could take advantage of the situation to ascend the throne and become the emperor, and the more he thought about it, the happier he became. So he immediately summoned his cronies in the house and planned in detail.

After dark, Li Qi led 10,000 forbidden troops and soldiers in the palace to suddenly kill the East Palace. Li Zhao was dressed in Mingguang armor, carrying a long knife at his waist, and he was majestic, as if he saw the throne beckoning to him.

Soon, the gate of the East Palace was smashed open, and the rebel forbidden army swarmed in. Emperor Li Kun and the crown prince Li You walked out of the East Palace.

Li Kun stood at the top of the steps and scolded angrily: "King Yong, what are you going to do? Do you want to rebel?"

Li Qi thought that the victory was in his hands, and he didn't care: "Of course I want to be the emperor." In this position, the father can do it, and the sons can also do it.

"I said that if I don't give it, you can't rob it.

"The son robbed it today, what can my father do?"

"I finally give you a chance, you lead the troops to withdraw, and I spare your life." Li Kun said in a deep voice.

Li Zhao on the side lost patience, drew his sword, and said loudly: "Please ask the imperial grandfather to abdicate and give way to my father." The emperor's grandfather can be the emperor and enjoy his old age in peace.

Li Kun looked disdainful, "What if I

don't abdicate?" "If the imperial grandfather doesn't abdicate, don't blame the grandson." After Li Zhao finished speaking, he was about to lead people to kill to a high place and force Li Kun to abdicate.

At this moment, thousands of royal forest troops poured out from the East Palace, and many forbidden troops suddenly appeared on both sides, holding bows and arrows aimed at King Yong's soldiers and horses.

Li Zhao immediately realized that the situation was not good, and the emperor had already noticed the plan of the Yongwang Mansion. said to Li Qi: "Father, the emperor is ready, retreat quickly."

Li Qi had no choice but to hurriedly withdraw from the East Palace. Before exiting, he looked at Emperor Tiancheng unwillingly, and found that Li Kun was also looking at him, expressionless.

After Li Zhao withdrew from the East Palace, he did not dare to delay for a moment, returned to the mansion to pick up his mother and wife and concubine, and then fled from Chang'an with his father Li Qi and family soldiers.

How can such a great matter as rebellion be easily let go. Soon after Li Qi and Li Zhao escaped from Chang'an, Li Kun immediately ordered Dugu Ling, the commander of the forbidden army, to lead 20,000 iron cavalry to chase and kill Li Qi and his son.

In the past two days, Dugu Ling has been like a madman, not stopping for a moment, closely following Li Zhao and the others.

This forced Li Zhao and the others to choke enough, not to mention sleeping, and they didn't even have time to eat. Exhausted every day, scared and scared, afraid that the next day the head will not be on the neck.

It was in this situation that the original body accidentally fell off the horse, and then was occupied by Li Zhao.

After Li Qi led everyone out of Chang'an, he fled to the direction of Hanzhong. Before the original body, he asked Li Qi why he fled to Hanzhong.

Li Qi said that Hanzhong was in the hands of Qi and could take the opportunity to take refuge in Qi.

Now that Li Zhao has crossed over, he feels that it is not very reliable to defect to the Qi State. What if the Qi State does not want to offend the Wei State and hands them over. Moreover, as the grandson of the Great Wei Emperor, he was not willing to defect to other countries.

Just when Li Zhao was thinking wildly, he could already see the mountains in Hanzhong.

However, at this moment, the pursuers behind him also caught up.
