Chapter 61: The Undercurrent Diagram Exhaustively Sees
That night, in Nanmu Dongping Mansion, the governor Zhang Jiyuan silently put away a top-secret military report, and after a long pause, he recruited his henchmen and entourage, "Chuan Teng come here!" β
Ma Tengju, the governor of Dongping Mansion, and Zhang Jiyuan, the governor of Dongping Mansion, and Zhang Jiyuan, a martial artist, guarded Dongping, and the two have known each other for many years, and they have always cooperated quite tacitly.
A few years ago, Zhang and Ma set a marriage for their children, preparing to get married soon. Ma Tengju's eldest son married Zhang Jiyuan's second daughter, and the two families tied the knot of Qin and Jin, supported each other in their careers, and had a bright future.
After receiving the summons of Fu Yin, Ma Tengju did not leave immediately, hesitated for a moment, crushed the secret letter of the wax pill secretly placed in his arms, and sighed in his heart, he couldn't escape this court dispute after all.
Called the eldest son Ma Conghuan, "Go here for your father, Dongping may have an incident, you can hold the father tiger charm to control Dongping Shiwu, if your father is unexpected, you must not act rashly, just firmly control the military power, everything is subject to the royal family's dispatch, remember!" β
Ma Conghuan is also a young man who is brave and witty, and he listened to his father's orders, although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask much, but said, "Father is careful, as long as the military power is in hand, Conghuan believes that no one dares to touch his father!" As for the subsequent arrangements, the children must put the general interests of the country first, and will not be taken advantage of by traitors! β
Ma Tengju listened, said no more, beat the horse and whipped and led more than a dozen horsemen and guards to go straight to the Yin Mansion.
In the study, Zhang Jiyuan waited for Ma Tengju to sit down, raised the teacup and took a sip, paused slightly, and looked up at Ma Tengju, as if he was indecided.
"Tengju, you and I have known each other since childhood, and now we have been guarding this Dongping Mansion together for many years, and we know each other well.
"Your Excellency, please speak!" Ma Tengju didn't say much, his attitude was respectful, but he was secretly prepared in his heart.
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll say it directly," Zhang Jiyuan's voice turned solemn, "Tengju should know that I am a protΓ©gΓ© of Lord Tian of Zhongshu Ling, and today I have this status and the support of the Tian family." β
Seeing that Ma Tengju didn't answer, Zhang Jiyuan's heart tightened, but his mouth still kept talking, "Tonight, I received a letter from Lord Tian Huoqi, ordering us to immediately lead troops into King Qin, Tengju, what do you think?" β
Ma Teng's scalp was numb, and he said secretly, finally there is still a-for-tat, and listen to what Zhang Jiyuan says.
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Tengju, so far, I won't hide it from you, I want to do my best in Dongping Mansion Shiwu and send troops to Huacheng!"
After Zhang Jiyuan finished speaking, he didn't say much, his eyes stared at Ma Tengju, and said in his heart, if you and I go against each other, Tengju is not to blame the brother for being ruthless.
Hearing this, Tang Tang was in a cold sweat from the Sipin Dongping Mansion, and received the Duan family's wax pill secret order in the evening, and Ma Tengju knew that he was involved in the mysterious and cruel court dispute.
In the recent series of events in Huacheng, Zhang and Ma will always get information about the changes in the situation, but all the local forces have chosen to remain silent, after all, the gods and ghosts dare not get involved.
When the situation is unclear, no one wants to be a bird.
But tonight, all vague prevarications no longer work.
Show oneβs true colors in the end!
That's it, the Duan family has great grace and me, and now we can only be our own masters, Brother Jiyuan, I am ashamed.
Thinking of this, Ma Tengju suddenly raised his head, his eyes calm and firm, "What Master Zhang said, according to what Tengju said, but there is no disobedience, but the transfer of the army is a major national event, and I have not seen the order of the Ministry of War or His Majesty's imperial decree, Tengju must not be followed!" β
Zhang Jiyuan saw that Ma Tengju was as expected, and refused to follow, his face changed, "General Ma, although this matter of Dongping Mansion Shiwu is not under my control, but after all, Zhang Mou's Mansion Yin also has the power to mobilize the army when he is in a hurry!" β
"Besides, the general is still in my mansion at the moment, does General Ma have to break the net and disappoint you and me?"
Hearing that Zhang Jiyuan was almost angry and red Guoguo's threat, Ma Teng's heart became more determined.
"What Master Zhang said is wrong, today's Nanmu is not the Nanmu of the Chinese Book Order, let alone the Nanmu of you and me, but the Nanmu of the Holy One!"
Ma Tengju didn't wait for Zhang Jiyuan to speak, and then continued, "Tengju only knows that the king of food is worried about the king, as for other court battles, Lord Zhang, listen to the words of my brother to persuade you, let's stop for the time being, the situation is not clear, you and I ants, if you raise the king of soldiers for no reason, no matter whether you succeed or fail, you will die without a place to be buried!" β
Ma Teng's remark is true, not to mention that the Duan family is powerful now, most of the military power is in the hands of the Duan family, and it is almost impossible to rebellious.
Take 10,000 steps back, even if the arrangements are proper and successful in one fell swoop, King Qin can only qualitatively go to the side of the Qing monarch and get rid of the Duan family. Once the saint settles accounts after the autumn, who allows Er and others to send troops privately without being summoned by the monarch, this crime is a big crime, can it be said that the Zhongshu order instigated?
And in order to appease the royal anger, the high-ranking and powerful people who really profit have to poke out a few scapegoats, who will they cry with when they come?
"What Tengju said, Jiyuan knows it, but you and I are in the court, and we can't help ourselves, General Ma, whether to do things with me or not, you should make a decision!"
"Lord Fu Yin, since you and I are our own masters, let's make it clear, I have received the secret order of the Taifu to control Shiwu, and I will not act rashly, and only follow the holy decree and the order of the military department! I have handed over the tiger talisman to the dog, and now I am the control sergeant, and I hope that Lord Yin will think twice, you can't make a mistake! β
"You..." Zhang Jiyuan heard that Ma Tengju was so tough, and he almost dropped the teacup in his hand.
Outside the study, a group of dead soldiers from Zhang's Mansion had been in ambush for a long time, and when they heard the order, they would immediately rush in and lift Ma Teng's body into pieces.
I don't know if I was moved by Ma Tengju's words, or I couldn't bear to kill my brother like a brother like this, but the teacup finally hung in the air and never fell.
There is no need to go into detail about what happened after that, but until dawn, not a single soldier was sent from Dongping Mansion.
***
There may never be a military power struggle in Nanmu history that has affected the whole country like tonight.
Throughout the night, undercurrents were surging all over Nanmu, and power changes were experiencing life-and-death struggles everywhere.
The situation in Dongping Mansion is the most mild, except for Qingping Mansion, where Huacheng is located, Nanmu is in chaos everywhere, and news is transmitted to Huacheng one after another, and the royal family, the four great families, and Shadow Tsing Yi have received information, and they all stay awake all night.
Since ancient times, emperors will be together, and a few families will be happy and a few will be sad.
Huacheng Duanfu, Duan Jingnan sat on the rosewood bench and pondered, and all the henchmen in the hall stood with their hands down, and no one spoke, waiting for the Taifu to break off.
"After all, there are still three soldiers and horses!" Duan Jingnan sighed, as if he was dissatisfied with his own control, his words stopped abruptly, and then his eyes burst into cold light, "Ye Luo, can the military department be prepared?" β
"Taifu, the Ministry of War has already done all the armament matters, and all the prefectures and counties along the way, and the surrounding areas of Huacheng are heavily armed. When the rebels attack, they will not return, and the whole army will be wiped out! β
Hearing Qi Yeluo's calm and confident answer from Qi Yeluo, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Duan Jingnan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really something that doesn't know whether to live or die, after the rebellion is suppressed, the servant will punish the nine clans, and the first evil car will be split in the city!" β
There are 79 counties in the six prefectures of Nanmu, in addition to the Qingping Mansion where the national capital Huacheng is located, there are still five prefectures of Ninghe, Dongping, Dingyuan, Jianglin and Junyue.
This time, the Duan clan failed to control the Junyue Mansion and the Jianglin Mansion.
The terrain of Junyue Mansion is treacherous, with many lofty mountains and rivers, and the residents are mainly local aborigines. The soldiers of Junyue Mansion gathered 10,000 horses in two directions, and almost the entire military strength of the government was used.
Jiang Lin gathered his strength in one, except for a few counties that refused to send troops, the rest followed the orders of Shangguan and gathered 30,000 troops, which was like a rainbow for a while!
***
Zhongshu Ling Tian Mansion, Tian Mingyuan is like an ant on a hot pot, circling around the study.
Above the court is already the world of the Duan family, and the politicians have no chance to do anything. It was hoped that this advance deployment would be able to mobilize enough military strength to threaten Emperor Jinghe to depose Duan Jingnan in the name of 'King Qin', and then annihilate the Duan clan in one fell swoop.
Who would have thought that the two prefectures of Dongping and Dingyuan, which have the heaviest troops and the largest power on their own side, thought that the deployment of nine out of ten would be stifled by the Duan family, and the strength of the 'King of Qin' was far less than expected.
Ming Gong, the leader of Shadow Tsing Yi in Nanmu, didn't seem to care much, and when everyone finished discussing the military situation, Ming said openly, "King Qin's dispatch of troops is not justified, and the Nanmu court in Mingli is stable, and it is really reluctant to play the banner of the Qingjun side just because the Duan family is powerful." β
"The old man thinks that the matter of gathering at the main altar of the Holy Sect tomorrow is a top priority! Now that the power of the Lords in the Kutu Holy Sect is already strong, we will take advantage of the gathering to eradicate the Xuanyang and coerce the Spirit Maiden, and it is imperative to take full control of the Holy Sect! β
There was a hint of ruthlessness in the eyes of Ming Gong in Tsing Yi, "I conclude that Duanmen will definitely make arrangements for the Holy Sect gathering, but Shadow Tsing Yi has concentrated all the elites of Nanmu to escort and protect this matter, and we have a lot to do." β
Seeing that everyone continued to listen, Ming Gong said hatefully, "Tomorrow Xuanyang will die, and Shadow Tsing Yi will play an unimaginable role in Nanmu's biggest dark pile!" β
"The old man should personally sit in charge tomorrow and see with his own eyes that Zhifeng will be captured, and the Duan family will slaughter the family!"
