Chapter 434: The Eve of Destiny's Turn

As soon as they heard that Lin Yue really led the troops to copy the Zhushun Hou Mansion, the eldest young master who was still talking about it just now was speechless, and they didn't know what to do, so the little young master of the Zhushun Hou Mansion immediately asked the little Marquis of Yunxin for help. The little marquis of Yunxin was cleaned up by Lin Yue twice in the capital, and when he heard that Lin Yue really led the troops to do it, he was afraid that he would be recognized as doing trouble here, so he immediately resigned and prepared to return to the Duke of Dingnan's mansion for temporary refuge.

The other sons and brothers also left in a hurry, and the little young master of the Marquis of Zhushun suddenly had no idea, and the subordinate who reported the news said: "Childe, it's better to go to Lord Taishou......"

When the little young master heard it, this was also an idea, those nobles wanted to protect themselves, but Taishou was a court official, and he couldn't shirk it. After making up his mind, he immediately ran towards the Taishou Mansion, but was caught by Lin Yue's men without taking two steps.

At this time, Lin Yue didn't think much about helping the Marquis of Shun's Mansion, the crime had already been set, colluding with bandits, attacking the official army, and the rest of the matter was up to Wu Yan to sweep up, and the once-prominent Marquis of Zhushun's Mansion in Yuanzhou completely disappeared.

Lin Yue's move also really frightened some nobles, they suddenly didn't dare to express their position, now Lin Yue made it clear that he wanted to advance and retreat together with His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and he was in the same boat through thick and thin, and his soldiers and horses directly took over the city defense, as long as he showed a little sign of support for His Royal Highness, I am afraid it will be a disaster of extermination.

The Zhushun Marquis Mansion was destroyed, and no one said anything, not even their nearest relatives dared to take the lead. The reason why the Marquis of Zhushun Mansion dared to argue with the first family of Yuanzhou was because of the thousands of armed forces.

Originally, the Tao family, who was born as a military general, also had a large private army, but it is a pity that after several generations, the comfortable life and extravagant pomp of the Duke's Mansion have made this army that was once praised by the Taishi Demon Yunhai slowly die out, and their descendants are also lazy after the death of the veterans, and the descendants of the Tao family have neither strong strength nor original military strategy, and even basic management is not good. You must know that even ordinary scholars in Yuanzhou will raise one hundred and eighty armed families, one to take care of the family and the other to protect the trade routes.

Unlike the armed family, the trilogy is relatively close to the model of the army, Lin Yue completed a thousand trilogy unscathed, and uprooted the Marquis of Zhushun's mansion, and the news spread throughout the Yuanzhou family in less than half a day.

Lin Yue walked around the main roads of Yuanzhou with his soldiers and horses, and fully told everyone that he was not easy to mess with. Although he destroyed a Hou Mansion in the most simple and direct way, the nobles of the entire Yuanzhou did not resist too much.

It is not uncommon for the noble family to have a vendetta against each other, and now it is a special period, involving the issue of standing in line, Lin Yue is understandable even if the means are fierce, this is also the rule between the nobles, whenever the royal power is alternated, there are always some people buried in history. Now they are thinking about how to make some gains after the fall of the Marquis of Zhushun.

Of course, this is a rule between the nobles, if you worship the Holy Maiden or a 'mud leg' like Gao Fuhai, it will only attract the siege of the entire noble clan.

Lin Yue captured the subordinates who originally helped the Marquis of Shun's mansion, and decided to let these thousand people not have to go to the capital with them, and go directly to their fiefdom to stay, so as not to make trouble for themselves here.

When he returned to Douzikeng, it was getting late, so Lin Yue had to camp on the spot and go to the capital a day later.

......

And at this moment, it is not peaceful in the capital, and a depressed mood has spread.

The army of the fourth prince is moving forward rapidly, and it is now outside the city, and it will enter the city early tomorrow morning, and the nobles of the third prince and the party are a little uneasy, after all, there are 80,000 troops outside the city, and there are 20,000 local troops coming one after another. The reason why the fourth prince did not enter the city today was not because he didn't want to enter, but because he surrounded the more than 10,000 remnants of the three princes outside the city and confiscated their ordnance at the first time.

The capital at night is surprisingly quiet, with only a few dogs barking floating on the long street.

The two figures walked towards Lin Yue's small courtyard in the capital. When I came to the door, I saw that there was a lock on it. Under the faint light of the lantern at the entrance of the street, I could vaguely see the faces of the two of them, if Lin Yue was here, he would definitely exclaim, how did Qi Diaoling and Dugu Sisi come together?

And what he didn't know was that the injured girl in front of him was not Dugu Sisi, but a weapon merchant Kou Xueying who walked the world, and Lin Yue had seen it when he was young. So when he saw Dugu Sisi for the first time, he always had a sense of déjà vu.

Qi Diaoling and Lin Yue lived in the capital for a period of time and knew the address of Lin Yue's small courtyard, but Lin Yue served as the chief soldier of Yuanzhou, and this place should be empty.

Qi Diaoling pulled out a filament from her hair and poked it in the keyhole a few times before opening the door lock, but she didn't expect that the courtyard was the same as usual, and there was not even dust in the room. In fact, Gui Nansong and his sister felt Lin Yue's great kindness, and they couldn't do anything more for him, so they came to clean up every two days.

Entering the house, Kou Xueying covered her wounds and said, "Ah Ling, is this where you settled in the capital?"

Qi Diaoling couldn't help but think of the days with Lin Yue, and nodded: "Hmm." ”

Kou Xueying sighed: "It's good that you have such preparations, otherwise we would be really in trouble." ”

As a first-class weapons merchant, Kou Xueying not only builds weapons for officers and soldiers and princes, but even works for bandits and rebels, as long as the other party can afford it. Cults like the Holy Virgin and Gao Weihai have had business dealings with them. This time, a big patron ordered 3,000 spears, 3,000 swords, 1,000 sets of bows and crossbows, 50,000 arrows, and the most important thing was 30 artillery pieces and matching ammunition, which was a big deal. It's just that the delivery location is really bad.

Texas, just on the edge of the capital, in the capital to ask for such a large amount of ordnance, fools know that there must be a problem, contact the recent high-profile return of the four princes to Beijing, this batch of goods is not for the fourth prince to use, then kill the fourth prince. But it has nothing to do with them, as long as they have money, they will get things done.

But I didn't expect that when the transaction was made, the other party suddenly made a killer. Originally, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Kou Xueying not only escorted her personally, but also found an old helper, and the phantom thousand machine lacquer carving Ling helped. I brought a lot of good hands and carefully went all the way to the direction of the capital.

The other party is also a master, the ambush in the secret is even more powerful, and he was also injured by the plot, and when everyone was defeated, the loyal subordinates escorted the second daughter away.

Originally, Kou Xueying wanted to go back to the southeast nest directly, find out the situation and then wait for the opportunity to take revenge, but she didn't expect to meet several waves of people chasing them on the road, she expected that these people would track them all the way in the direction of her base camp, and it seemed that she would not be willing to take her own life. You chased to the southeast, but I went the opposite way and went north to the capital to hide.

So there was a matter of the two of them escaping the Lin Yue courtyard at night, Qi Diaoling asked, "Are you sure there is no problem here at any time?" She knew that the other party had bought so many things, it must have been for the army outside the city.

Kou Xueying smiled: "Don't worry, there should be no safer than the capital at this time, the protagonists of this incident are the third prince and the fourth prince, the purpose is nothing more than to fight for power and profit, and the most serious thing is to take the position by force, the nobles and rich people in the capital are gathered, no matter who they do, they will not make a big deal in the capital, now I just don't know who this buyer is, there are so many good brothers who have been killed and injured, it must not be counted like this." ”

Qi Diaoling didn't speak, but also nodded silently, now it is known that one of the two princes will make a big battle, it depends on who will be exposed first.

......

At this moment, there was another person who also frowned because of the situation in front of him.

Chai Shengnan saw what had happened recently, it had been half a year since the battle of the Three Light Sword Formation, but his cultivation had never recovered, only the original six successes, and even the sequelae of spellcasting, coughing and wheezing whenever it was rainy.

Now that she is Beichen Zhonglang, she is under the jurisdiction of the palace and the palace, to be honest, she does not approve of the four princes bringing a great victory to recruit general troops from all over the country into Beijing, not only has a bad reputation, but also cut off her own back road. If you force the palace by yourself, you will be unfilial and domineering at most. However, when local troops were recruited into Beijing privately, this nature changed. Maybe the fourth prince just wants the lords who are high in the capital to see their popularity, how many people are loyal to the fourth prince himself before being loyal to the imperial court.

Now nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses are outside the city, and the messenger of the fourth prince and the king have collapsed. The meaning of the king, the four princes entered the palace to play the right, but the four princes said that this battle broke the Northern Demon Sect and captured many enemy generals, according to the old etiquette, it was necessary to sacrifice prisoners in the Taimiao Temple first.

Chai Shengnan, the idea of the two, knew as soon as he heard that the king wanted to trick the fourth highness into the palace and separate it from his own soldiers and horses to make plans, and the fourth prince was not simple, he wanted to sacrifice the prisoner Taimiao, so that not only did he sit on his great merits, but also called the king and the third prince not to shoot in public, and did not dare to make a move. After all, the Taimiao prisoners must not be sloppy.

But no matter what they think between father and son, Chai Shengnan can only implement the concept of Master Mo Yunhai, and put the stability of the court first, although he has been a Beichen Zhonglang general for two years, but she has just taken over the defense of the capital, although she has the face of Mo Yunhai, but as a woman, she has never been valued in front of those big lords, and the only advantage of being a female general is probably that she can freely enter and leave the palace before and after.

Tomorrow the fourth prince Ji Huai will lead a team into Beijing, of course, although the capital is large, but they can not let their 100,000 troops all enter the city, the two sides negotiated for a long time and reached an agreement, the king led a hundred officials out of the palace to greet each other, and the four highnesses only brought a thousand guards, which is the maximum concession between the two sides, she also understands that tomorrow is the day that determines history, this night she secretly dispatched her henchman Kuizi Banner female barracks into the palace to stand by in case of accidents, Chai Shengnan and clothes and armor, sitting on the palace bell tower waiting for dawn to come.
