Chapter 1132: Jiangnan Shakes
The collapse of the Liu family was just the beginning, and then most of the families related to the Liu family were implicated. Soon, this turmoil spread to Jinling and swept across the Yangtze River.
Shi Hua got the news and said to Fang Xing: "When the Liu family fell, I really thought it was the princess who was taking revenge!" No way, Yuxi's reputation for jealousy is too loud.
Fang Xing chuckled and said, "You all take the Liu family too seriously, and you also underestimate the princess too much." If the princess is so small, can the prince be impressed?"
Shi Hua asked strangely, "General, did you already know that the fall of the Liu family was just the beginning?"
Fang Xing shook his head and said, "I don't know." However, if the princess really wants to deal with the Liu family, she will not wait until now. "It's just that I didn't expect that the princess's purpose turned out to be the entire Jiangnan.
Shi Hua said with some emotion: "The princess has a lot of hands this time. "More than half of the families who were not destroyed during the war were implicated this time.
Fang Xing said: "Before the prince didn't move those families, I still wondered. Now it seems that those people were not moved in the first place, because they did not want to have a big mess. "Now that Jiangnan is stable, you can take these big families under the knife.
As he was talking, the guards outside replied: "General, General Yu said that he wanted to see you outside." ”
Fang Xing frowned and said, "Please let him in!" Since the last conversation, even if the two met, they only talked about military affairs, never about government affairs and private affairs. Not to mention that Yu Cong doesn't want to talk about it, it's that Yu Cong doesn't want to listen.
Yu Cong saw Fang Xing and told him about the recent shaking in Jiangnan. After finishing speaking, Yu Cong said: "Brother Fang, it's not okay to go on like this, we have to stop it." As long as Fang Xing was willing to cooperate with him, he would be able to stop Han Jianming's unscrupulous behavior.
Fang Xing's face turned cold all of a sudden: "For the sake of the relationship that has been intersecting for several years, I should not have heard this." "Han Jianming is the governor of Jiangnan and their nominal boss. If you want to stop Han Jianming, unless you mutiny. Yu Cong didn't care if he was looking for death by himself, and even wanted to drag him into the water.
Yu Cong said angrily: "Could it be that Brother Fang, you are also afraid that the Han family and Han Jianming will not succeed?"
Fang Xing was no longer merciful at this time, and said, "If you say one more word, I will arrest you now." "If Han Jianming is arrested, even if he doesn't die, he has no future.
This conversation broke up unhappily.
Fang Xing and Yu Cong immediately wrote a letter after waiting for Yu Cong to leave, asking people to rush to Ho City for 800 miles. Then he asked Shi Hua to go to the Governor's Mansion to tell Han Jianming that Yu Cong wanted to mutiny, and he himself rushed to the army in a hurry. You can't let Yu Cong instigate the generals in the army to make trouble, otherwise even if he doesn't participate in it, he will have to walk around without eating.
Han Jianming got the news and said with a smile: "Yu Cong wants to unite with Fang Xing to bring down the official?" He now felt that Yu Cong's brain was not filled with tofu scum, because this person had no brains at all.
Shi Hua hurriedly said: "My lord, my general is loyal to the prince and the princess, and he has no two hearts. "Even if Han Jianming is the governor of Jiangnan, he doesn't have so much power to wipe out so many families, which is clearly what the prince and the princess mean. Anti-Han Jianming is equivalent to anti-prince and princess.
Han Jianming smiled and said, "I naturally believe in General Fang. However, General Yu has this idea, and he will definitely make trouble. In order to prevent such a thing from happening, it is also necessary to bother General Fang. "This time, he won't let Fang Xing go away.
Hearing that Han Jianming wanted him to put Yu Cong under house arrest, Fang Xing's brows furrowed. After half a ring, Fang Xing sighed and said, "I can only gamble!" He originally wanted to watch from the wall, but Han Jianming obviously didn't agree. Since he can't be neutral, he can only choose the most advantageous side to take refuge.
Shi Hua knew that Fang Xing was preparing to put Yu Cong under house arrest, and said with some worry: "General, in this way, you will tear your face with Yu Cong, and when Yu Cong is convicted in the future, I am afraid that Xu Wu and Feng Dajun and others will be angry with you." "If they make a small stumbling block for their own generals or put eye medicine on the prince in front of the prince, it will be enough for their own generals to drink a pot.
Fang Xing shook his head and said, "Xu Wu and Feng Dajun are both reasonable people, so they won't be angry with me for this matter." Moreover, offending Xu Wu and Feng Dajun is better than offending the princess. ”
Fang Xing knew very well in his heart that it was Yuxi's handiwork that so many people died in Jiangnan this time. So in Fang Xing's mind, Yuxi is a ruthless person. Such a person must not be offended. Otherwise, I won't know how I will die when the time comes.
Shi Hua said with some concern: "Yu Cong is the prince's person, Han Jianming wants us to put Yu Cong under house arrest, what kind of attitude do you say the prince knows?"
Fang Xing was not worried about this: "Even if the prince is unhappy, he will not do anything to Han Jianming." "Han Jianming has the support of the princess, and the prince is famous for being afraid of his wife. As long as Han Jianming didn't do anything to rebel, there would be no problem.
Knowing what Fang Xing was thinking, Shi Hua asked curiously, "General, you said that the prince is really afraid of the princess!" He didn't believe this rumor.
Fang Xing said: "The prince is afraid of the princess, but this fear is not the kind of fear we think. ”
Shi Hua felt very profound, touched his head and said, "I don't understand." ”
Fang Xing thought for a while and said, "Generally, only the wives are afraid of their wives, do you think the prince is a wretch?"
Shi Hua immediately denied it: "Today's rivers and mountains are all beaten down by the prince, who dares to say that the prince is a wreck?" If the prince is a wreck, then there will be no real man in the world.
Fang Xing said with a smile: "Therefore, the prince is afraid that the princess is obviously someone deliberately spreading rumors. The prince thought that the government affairs were cumbersome and detailed, so they were all handed over to the princess to dispose of. The prince is responsible for fighting the country, and the princess is responsible for governing the country, I think this is actually very good. "Fang Xing is not dissatisfied with Yuxi's administration, the reason is very simple, the princess's administration has made the entire northwest prosperous, and it has also made their lives better and better.
Shi Hua said: "It seems to make a lot of sense. ”
Fang Xing scolded with a smile: "It makes sense. Okay, let's stop gossiping, let's get down to business. "If you're going to do it, let's do it simply.
Yu Cong detained Fang Xing in the army on the same day. When Han Jianming got the news, he sent someone to Yufu to arrest Second Master Liu. In fact, Han Jianming could arrest people before, but Yang Duoming suggested not to arrest them.
Yang Duoming is not kind, he thinks that with Second Master Liu by Yu Cong's side, Yu Cong can continue to die and not be able to turn back, and the result is as he expected.
When Liu Yi heard that Liu Erye was forcibly taken away by officers and soldiers, she immediately called Song Mang and said, "Where is the master?"
Song Mang said with a bitter face: "The master is in the barracks, but our people can't see it." ”
Liu Yi asked, "What do you mean that you can't see the master?" After speaking, her face turned sideways: "Did the master have an accident?" If Yu Cong had an accident, she wouldn't even have the last finger to rely on.
Song Mang pondered for a while and said, "Madam, it may be that there is urgent military affairs in the army. In the past, when the old man was busy, he often didn't go home for several days. ”
Liu Yi muttered to herself: "The master must have had an accident." The Han family didn't even let go of the Liu family, how could they let go of the master. After saying this, Liu Yi fainted.
Hanmei was so frightened that she couldn't do it: "Doctor, please ask for a doctor." ”
Liu Yi had a heavy bleeding when she was pregnant, so her body was very weak. Later, when I was getting married, I was depressed, and after only a few days of peace, I encountered the collapse of the Liu family. Therefore, Liu Yi's fetus is very unstable. This time it was stimulated again, and the doctor was also unable to recover.
When she woke up and knew that the child was gone, Liu Yi cried bitterly while holding her stomach: "Child, my child, my child." Although this child did not come as she expected, but in the end it was her own blood and bones, and now that she knows the child, it seems to be digging her heart.
Since the news of the collapse of the Liu family came back to the capital, Yan Wushuang's face has not been good-looking. He wouldn't think that Yuxi would take revenge on the Liu family because of Liu Yi's affairs, as others think. As he expected, Han Yuxi's goal was the entire Jiangnan.
Meng Nian's expression was also very solemn, the last time Han Yuxi's revenge caused their intelligence system in Jiangnan to suffer heavy damage, and they have not recovered yet. It is also because of this that their news is a little laggy: "The other party moved too fast, and we were caught off guard." "The Yu family's forces in Jiangnan have also suffered a devastating blow this time.
Yan Wushuang said: "I didn't expect Han Yuxi to start so quickly. He knew that Yuxi would clean Jiangnan, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.
Meng Nian said: "Speaking of which, Han Jianming is really a good knife in Han Yuxi's hands. "So far, nearly 1,000 people have died and tens of thousands have been implicated. Jiangnan is also a place where the literary style prevails, and the pen of the literati is sharper than the knife in the hands of the soldiers. Therefore, Han Jianming is also considered to be an executioner who kills people without blinking.
Yan Wushuang was noncommittal about this: "Han Jianming can sit in the position of governor of Jiangnan, not because of how talented he is, but because of his loyalty to Han Yuxi. "As for the crusade of the literati, I believe Han Jianming doesn't care at all.
Meng Nian no longer discussed Han Jianming, but said worriedly: "Lord Wang, Han Yuxi has cleared the south of the Yangtze River, and when the time comes, they will capture the three provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou, and it won't be long before they will send troops to attack the capital." ”
Yan Wushuang said: "The one who should come will always come, and it's useless to worry." "If you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you will return to Liaodong.
Meng Nian looked at Yan Wushuang's relaxed appearance, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth: "The city wall over there in Tongcheng has been repaired, and the Donghu people are not afraid to attack again." "It cost more than two million taels of silver to build the wall, and it was a lot of money, and it was all spent on it without any discount. So, the walls are very strong.
Yan Wushuang hummed and said, "The harvest of the artichoke is not bad, even if you return to Liaodong, the days will be much better than before." "The high harvest of artichoke can alleviate the food crisis.
Speaking of food, Meng Nian looked sad: "Lord, I'm afraid it will be difficult to buy grain from Jiangnan in the future." "Although Jiangnan was occupied by Yunqing, they still got hundreds of thousands of stone grain from Jiangnan in the past six months. However, after the turmoil in Jiangnan, it will be difficult to get food from there.
Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "Five years ago, there was a drought in the northwest, and the northern captives sent troops to grab food, and more than 200,000 people died in Xihai that year. But Han Yuxi still let people sell grain to the north and take it captive. For what? It's not for a good word. "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the world is all for profit. As long as the profits are sufficient, there are many people who kill people and set fires, not to mention just selling food.
Yuxi's decision to let Yunshan exchange grain for the kidnapping of people and horses in the north is highly secret, and very little is known. Yan Wushuang was also deduced after the mysterious cavalry that appeared.
Meng Nian felt incredible when he got the news at first. Han Yuxi is not surprised that he is so ****, but it is incomprehensible that Yunqing would agree: "If the world knows what Han Yuxi has done, I don't know how he will feel." ”
Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "The world will never know. "These things are not visible, Han Yuxi must have swept his tail clean, even if they also speculated about it, they couldn't find any evidence.
Meng Nian shook his head and said, "Yu Cong was placed under house arrest in the barracks by Fang Xing. Lord Wang, do you say that Han Yuxi will kill her?" asked Meng Nian to say, this Yu Cong is extremely incompetent. For such a long time, he didn't even cultivate his own henchmen, so he was easily put under house arrest.
Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "If you want to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, Yu Cong must die." But it's not so easy to kill Yu Cong. I think in the end, there might be a compromise to deal with. ”
As he was talking, Ah Qian opened the curtain and walked in with an anxious face and said, "Lord Wang, it's not good, Doctor Le Tai said that the fifth young master was not infected with wind and cold, but the epidemic." "Fifth Young Master Yan Hengxin had chills last night, and Yan Wushuang summoned the imperial doctor for treatment. I thought it was a cold, but I didn't expect it to be an epidemic.
Yan Wushuang's expression was also ugly: "Are you sure?" Seeing Ah Qian nodding, Yan Wushuang said, "Investigate thoroughly." "I hope it's not what he thinks, it's a woman in the backyard who is jealous of his pampering Xiao Wu.
Meng Nian hesitated and said, "Lord Wang, you have to move the sixth young master out of the mansion quickly." "This disease is easily contagious, and if the prince is infected, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, the only way to get people out of the house is to move them out of the house as soon as possible.
Yan Wushuang nodded in agreement.
Mrs. Xiang knew that her son was infected, and when she woke up, she immediately fainted, and when she woke up, she heard that her son had been removed from the house, rolled her eyes and fainted.
When she woke up again, Mrs. Xiang saw Yan Wushuang. Grabbing his sleeve, Mrs. Xiang cried and said, "Lord Wang, it must be Han Yuchen's slut's poisonous hand." Lord Wang, you must be the master of me and Xin'er. ”
Yan Wushuang said coldly: "You are Xiao Wu's mother, I want you to take care of him, are you willing to go?"
Mrs. Xiang immediately nodded and said, "Xin'er was born in October when I was pregnant, and I don't feel at ease when I am left to someone else to take care of me." In fact, Mrs. Xiang was also afraid of death, but she knew very well that if she refused, there would be no place for her in Yanwangfu. Moreover, she will not be able to give birth in the future, and if her son has three longs and two shorts, she will also lose her greatest reliance.
Yan Wushuang was very satisfied when he heard this: "Then you can pack up your things and go over! As for what you said that someone wants to harm Xiao Wu, I have already sent someone to investigate." ”
Mrs. Xiang gritted her teeth and said, "Lord Wang, you must be the master of Xin'er, otherwise the Han family will harm Xiao Wu again next time." "After knocking down Han Yuchen, her son has the possibility of ascending to the throne.
Yan Wushuang glanced at Mrs. Xiang and said, "I will send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly." He didn't believe that Yuchen was behind the scenes.
