Chapter 277: Stand-in
γ62 Chinese Networkγ., to provide you with wonderful reading.
The situation of the Gaomi King in Shanglin Yuan is very bad!
Originally, I thought that after adopting the strategy of the forbidden army commander to lead the fire attack, although there would be endless troubles, it would also be able to solve the battle quickly. Who knows, just a few fires were lit in the Hehuan Palace, and the escorted forbidden army arrived, not only to help extinguish the fire, but also to take advantage of waiting for work, and almost killed the manpower on the side of King Gaomi out of the Hehuan Palace!
The most terrible thing is that this support army is none other than the Chunbo Lake Water Division led by Meng Guiyu's brothers!
"Gongsun Shu! You are my son's brother-in-law, and you also have a life-saving grace for my son!" Seeing this, King Gaomi had no choice but to hold the idea of giving it a try, and shouted at Gongsun Shu and other former tortoiseshell island pirates beside Meng Guiyu's brothers, "If Lone succeeds tonight, how can I not thank you for saving your son back then?!" If you help the Meng clan, how can the Meng clan and Mizhen not share the same heaven, how can they treat you well?!"
It's just that these words were immediately blocked back by Meng Guiyu with righteous and solemn words: "Lord Wang, please respect yourself! Although the prince and the prince of Mizhen County are father and son, not to mention that the prince of the county is now thousands of miles away, it is impossible to mix with the rebellion of the prince! Let's just say that the king of the county has just defeated Ruru not long ago, which shows that he is brave and loyal! So the prince will make such a fool tonight, but it does not mean that the king of the county will be the same person! Everyone in the world knows that the prince prefers the prince, and he is deeply jealous and tired of the king of Mizhen County, why is it that now the prince himself is unwilling to go to a dead end, and he must drag the king of the county into the water!
"Soldiers, you follow such a ruthless and unrighteous person, and don't say what the future is, just say that when he returns home one day, his parents will be with him, what kind of face do you have?!"
And Gongsun Shu himself was too lazy to talk to King Gaomi, and raised his knife with an indifferent expression: "The public is public, the private is private, and the lower official is now the sailor of Chunbo Lake, and he should be loyal to his duties! If the prince retreats at this moment and waits for His Majesty to fall, the lower official will naturally collect the knife and return the sheath, and dare not have the slightest disrespect for the prince! But if the prince dares to take a step forward, he will see life and death!"
"Great Commander, what are you going to do now?!" King Gaomi saw sweat on his forehead, and asked the Great Commander of the Forbidden Army in a low voice, "Can you still mobilize other soldiers and horses to help?
The face of the commander of the forbidden army was very ugly: "If there is, I will not call it until now?"
He took a deep breath, "Lord Wang, there is nothing to be done at this moment...... You'd better make a decision early!"
King Gaomi's heart was awe-inspiring when he heard this, he had even coaxed and frightened this great commander before, but at this moment, he fell short, and he was about to fall into a situation of no return, if this great commander was angry, he might not be able to wait for the Meng clan and Emperor Xuanjing to settle the account, and cut him first!
ββ¦β¦ For today's plan, it is to retreat to Chang'an City!" King Gaomi thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Then spread rumors that Xuanjing is dead, and now the one in Shanglin Yuan is just a stand-in found by the Meng family!"
In a hurry, the more he spoke, the more fluent he became, "The reason why Lone and you will raise troops to enter Shanglin Yuan is also because I received the news that Your Majesty has already died, but the Meng family deceived Your Majesty into having no children under his knees, intending to confuse the bloodline and continue to control the government!
"Otherwise, it is not the time to escape the summer now, Your Majesty has never moved to Lin Yuan in this month, how could he suddenly have the intention of leaving the imperial city?"
"It's nothing more than because Your Majesty has been in the imperial city for a long time, and there are many palace people who are familiar with Tianyan over there, and they are worried that the stand-in will be seen as flawed!"
"And since the Meng Guiyu brothers in the fourth room entered the forbidden army, relying on the advice of the Shu sisters, they have already formed their own faction in the forbidden army!"
"The stand-in and the second concubine of the Shu family went to Shanglin Yuan, and the forbidden army controlled by the Meng clan helped cover it!"
"There is also a good evidence, that is, the Queen Mother took the lead in coming to Lin Yuan!"
"Because of her advanced age, the Queen Mother has not even seen much of her mother's younger generations recently, that is, the Queen Mother, who has always been loved, only shouted to the front to say a moment at a time, she is very old, and she left the palace abruptly, saying that it is not to cooperate with the conspiracy of the Meng family, to cover up the secret that His Majesty is no longer alive, who believes it?!"
"As for the queen mother who stayed in the palace, it was because the Meng family had ill intentions, and intended to conspire with the outside to kill the orphan, so as to hide from the sky and the sea, and did not come to the forest garden, so as to give Wu Anbo advice!"
"The sky net is restored but not leaked, and the loyal servants in the palace quietly send the news, so that the truth is revealed!"
King Gaomi thought about it and said quickly, "Tonight, you and you originally planned to find out the stand-in, so as to completely expose the Meng clan! Who knew that the Meng clan was developing rapidly in the forbidden army, so he could only temporarily retreat to Chang'an City and call on the people of the world to fight against the Meng clan !!"
The commander of the forbidden army was stunned for a moment, his brows jumped and jumped, and after a while, he said in a dumb voice: "...... But Your Majesty is still there!"
"So what?" King Gaomi sneered, "Your Majesty has not been in a serious court for many years? If it weren't for the fact that the second concubine of the Shu family likes luxury and liveliness, they will all attend the palace banquet during the New Year's Festival, and the court officials, if you are afraid of being younger, you don't know what Your Majesty looks like at all, right?"
"Even Gu, his own brother, is not very familiar with his recent situation. β
"Not to mention the ministers?!"
"Lone said he was a fake, how many people can swear that he is true?"
He took a deep breath, "And the lonely party has already sent people to the mansion of Zheng Hou and the others to exterminate the Meng clan and its henchmen! If there is no accident, at this time, except for the Meng Guiyu brothers, eighty percent of the other children of the Meng clan have already gone down! When Meng Boqin receives this news, he will inevitably move south!"
"And the lonely rebel Mizhen...... How can we continue to train troops in the western Xinjiang with determination?!"
"Lone and Meng Boqin have a grudge against their father, and there is no room for change between them;
Thinking of this, King Gaomi sneered, "Oh yes, the lonely little daughter-in-law, the county lord of Kangzhao, is now in the northern Xinjiang, and she is pregnant, counting the days, she is about to give birth!"
"Suppose she has three long and two short...... I'm afraid that Mi Zhen won't even come to Chang'an, so he will go north and fight Meng Boqin to the death!!"
The face of the commander of the forbidden army changed, and he said, "You plan to murder the princess of Mizhen County yourself in order to frame Meng Boqin?!"
Even if Meng Boqin wants to use Sheng Weiqiao's people in the northern Xinjiang to blackmail the sleeping crane, he will definitely not easily let this princess of the county have something to do, otherwise everyone will be three long and two short, how can he be a hostage?
King Gaomi's words clearly implied that he was going to poison his daughter-in-law.
Although Zhao Shi, the supreme representative of the prince in Northern Xinjiang, has already taken his belongings to Rong Mianhe, the battle between King Gaomi and the Meng clan in the Northern Xinjiang Army is not a day's work, and it is impossible that because of Zhao Shi's choice, King Gaomi will not be able to mobilize himself in Northern Xinjiang.
What's more, maybe Zhao Shi is left and right, that is, among the people who may have direct contact with Sheng Weiqiao, there are the people of King Gaomi.
It is difficult to prevent thieves from coming to the house, and if King Gaomi wants to attack Sheng Weiqiao, it must be more convenient than Meng Boqin's shot!
Sensing that the commander of the forbidden army seemed to disapprove, Gaomi Wang Senran said: "If Meng Boqin and the Mizhen soldiers come to the city, do you think whoever wins will give us good fruits to eat?!"
"Then we have to deal with the current situation!" the commander of the forbidden army reminded him, "Now that both Meng Boqin and the King of Mizhen County are thousands of miles away, I am afraid that we may not know what is happening at this moment!"
King Gaomi sneered and said, "So Gu said that he would retreat to Chang'an...... The so-called rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and many people up and down in Chang'an City, whether they are rich or poor, how can they not make a difference?!"
"Forcing the people to advance the counterattack?" The commander of the forbidden army saw his purpose at a glance, and secretly thought that the royal children were ruthless, this kind of thing, ordinary generals may not do it, King Gaomi has never been on the battlefield, but he thought of it without blinking an eye. "Isn't it just the people?" but King Gaomi's plan was even more ruthless than he thought, and at this moment he added with compassion, "The guardians of the big families of the high families should also make a contribution, right?! With this amount of manpower in our hands, we can't beat the Hehuan Palace for the time being, and we can't reason with those big families?!"
The commander of the forbidden army stared for a moment and said, "We have no other choice now, so naturally it depends on the prince...... However, the prince must not forget that the matter is so big that it is impossible for Gyeonggi not to hear the slightest rumor of the news in Gyeonggi tomorrow and tomorrow! Will there be officials who organize young men to come to the king to visit the king at that time......
"So Gu said that His Majesty had already died!" King Gaomi interrupted, "Your Majesty is old, and he is well-known for his romantic nature, and he is still singing with the Shu sisters every day, and he also adds a beautiful dancing girl every year to help the fun, isn't it a matter of course that this situation has gone suddenly?!"
"The officials of Gyeonggi, including the ordinary officials of Chang'an, before they can be sure that the one in Shanglin Yuan is the true body of the Son of Heaven, who knows if they will become fellow thieves?!"
He said contemptuously, "They dare to act rashly?!"
At this time, although King Gaomi was calm on his face, he was very worried in his heart, not only afraid of the fate of the entire palace after the defeat, but also worried that the disaster would not go alone, and he would force the palace to suffer setbacks, and the prince would also go wrong.
After a long time, the sky was already clear, gathered the remnants of the army and withdrew from Shanglin Yuan, retreated to Chang'an City, and saw the intact prince Rong Qingchu, as well as the heads of the three Zhenghou brothers personally presented by Rong Qingju, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and talked about the next plan in a few words, and asked Huang Wuyi to preside over the spread of rumors, while asking: "It seems that your side is very smooth? β
Qi Jianxun looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, the ministers are not hard at all, they are simply cheap to choose ready-made!"
"Huh?" King Gaomi squinted his eyes and waved his hand to let everyone who had nothing to do with him back away, before asking, "What did the in-laws say?"
"Duke Huan has made a move!" Qi Jianxun's words made King Gaomi's pupils shrink suddenly, "When we attacked the Meng family, there were internal responses everywhere, but the incident happened suddenly, and there was no time to identify who the internal response was, so now we can only be generally imprisoned, and we will interrogate them one by one when we have time...... With such a handiwork, there is no one else except Huan Gong!"
King Gaomi's face changed for a moment, and he muttered, "He...... Why would he do this?!"
Like Qi Jianxun and Huang Wuyi's thoughts, King Gaomi also felt that with such an outstanding royal disciple as Rong Mianhe, it was impossible for Huan Guanlan to sincerely help him in something like the battle for the throne.
If this emperor doesn't kill himself to clean the road for Rong Sleeping Crane, it's very good!
At this time, when he heard that it was suspected that Huan Guanlan had stepped in to help him, King Gaomi couldn't help but be confused, "And when did Duke Huan bury so many secrets for the Meng family?
"And the minister thinks that the things in Shanglin Yuan have nothing to do with Duke Huan. Qi Jianxun sighed and said tiredly, "Although the Meng Guiyu brothers have the support of the Shu sisters in the forbidden army, they are also very careful to operate, these brothers are not good at all, and they simply do not have enough prestige to suppress the scene! In fact, in the past half a year, it is Gongsun Shu and others who have been forced into the Chunbo Lake Water Division by the King of Mizhen County through them, relying on their strength, they have been recognized by some forbidden troops!"
"But even those people in Gongsun Shu are only recognized, and they are still far from being able to command the forbidden army!"
"How can those families who have accumulated inheritance over the years be so easy to accept outsiders!"
"Brother Meng Guiyu was able to lead the reinforcements to arrive in time, and they also repelled the prince in one go...... How suspicious you think!"
Rong Qingchu next to him asked confusedly: "Duke Huan, he helped us destroy Zheng Hou and other Meng clansmen, but he prevented us from breaking through Hehuan Palace, is this ...... What the hell is he trying to do?!"
