139: Seven days later
When he returned to the mourning hall, Rong Min whispered for a while, but Rong Jiang was patient and didn't talk about it.
Besides, Zhao Liang was there, and when he saw He Qi again, it was already noon two days later.
There were a lot of people on the first floor, and when Zhao Liang entered, the shopkeeper was very eye-catching, and led him to the second floor.
When he stepped into the second floor, He Qi's voice sounded in his ears: "Your Highness is also coming for dinner?" ”
Zhao Liang paused, looked up, and waved his hand to send the shopkeeper away: "You go," said and stepped up to stand face to face with He Qi, "It's such a coincidence, I came out for a walk today, and I met you here." ”
He Qi immediately made a gesture of invitation, and leaned sideways slightly: "It's better to meet by chance, Your Highness will appreciate your face?" ”
So Zhao Qi smiled and took a step, He Qi followed him, and the two walked around into the private room in a few steps, and He Qi closed the door casually.
He turned his face and saw that Zhao Liang was already sitting, so he smiled and sat down opposite him: "Your Highness is so cautious now?" ”
Zhao Liang raised his eyelids slightly to look at him, and poured tea to himself: "Now that it is an eventful season, it is natural to be careful, do you know where there are ears in this capital?" Where are the eyes? As he spoke, the teacup slammed lightly on the table, "You are holding half of the forbidden army in your hand, so it's amazing for people to know." ”
He Qi froze for a moment, laughed at himself, and reached out to pour water: "Also, it seems that His Highness really intends to do so."
"You just know it in your heart," Zhao Liang glanced at him and pointed his finger, "In seven days, Yunzhou will move." I didn't expect anything to happen in Jiangbei originally, but now it seems that it is more effort-saving. ”
"Seven days?" He Qi's hand holding the teacup tightened, and he shook his head unconsciously, "The time is too short, it has only been a few months since the left Jin Wuwei was handed over to me, and the left Jin Wuwei is only guarding Gyeonggi, and the protection in the imperial city is all about the right Jin Wuwei, so I can't interfere." ”
"The Imperial City is not needed, as long as Gyeonggi can be broken, it is enough." Zhao Liang glanced at him, and stopped talking.
He Qi looked at him like this, and frowned slightly: "The imperial city can be described as impregnable, if there is no internal response, how can you talk about breaking the city?" I know that since Your Highness has asked me to meet today, you must be completely sure, but this is a big deal, and I want to know all the inside information. ”
"He Qi." Zhao Qi ignored his words, shouted calmly, looked at him coldly with his hands in his sleeves, and looked at He Qi with a spirit, so he added, "There are some things you can know, but there are things that you don't need to know." I just need you to guarantee that Yunzhou will move in seven days, and when Jiangbei responds, you can protect me in the capital, and no one of the three mansions of Baorong Qiancheng will be damaged, and no one will be injured, and I will have my own arrangements for the rest, can you do it? ”
He Qi's heart sank - if Zhao Qi can succeed, even if he is the person who came with the dragon, in the future, he may be on a par with Rong Jiang and others in the court, but there are only a handful of generals who can be used in the court, and he will definitely be reused. But at the moment, according to Zhao Liang's meaning, there is indeed an inside story here, and it is enough to break the imperial city without spending a single soldier, this matter cannot be said to outsiders, if you know, it may not end well - the royal family is secret.
So he didn't dare to ask again, but replied to Zhao Liang categorically: "Yes!" ”
"That's very good," Zhao Liang snorted, "When the time comes, I want you to close the four gates of the city, and you are not allowed to enter or leave, and the Rong Mansion and other places will each send 5,000 soldiers and horses to surround the mansion, and if there is a summons in the palace, they will all be stopped and not allowed to enter, do you understand?" ”
"But even if Yunzhou raises troops to attack, it will take time to cooperate with the outside world, not to mention seven or eight days, and once the mutiny, if the world's soldiers and horses are guarded by the king, it will take more effort," He Qi felt that something was wrong, sighed, and continued with some hesitation, "Your Highness will do it directly in Beijing, I'm afraid it's not good?" ”
"So I want you to close the four doors tightly, I can't tell the world the will of the Zhongshu, and the state governments will not dare to move without the will," the corners of Zhao Qi's lips raised slightly, took out a seal from his arms, and shook it in front of He Qi, "Do you think I am so arrogant, only with more than 200,000 people in Yunzhou and Jiangbei, I dare to act rashly?" ”
He Qi's hand shook suddenly, the seal was Rong Jiang's private seal, he was uneasy, and asked with a cold face: "How can Your Highness have the general's private seal?" What did His Highness do with it? This thing"
"Do you think I'm going to cheat her?" Zhao Qi lowered his voice and interrupted He Qi, "Yesterday I wrote a letter to Gon and Dai Liangzhou, the letter was stamped with her seal, and the person who sent the letter was her confidant, she knows all about this matter, and she doesn't need you to worry about it!" ”
But it turned out that when dusk fell yesterday, Rong Jiang, who was still kneeling in the mourning hall to guard filial piety, was called out by Qian Shu, saying that someone from Qianfu had come and asked her to go back, she was reluctant to leave, but she had no choice but to ask her to go back, so she reluctantly changed her clothes and rode back to Qianfu.
And waiting in Qian Zhi's study, there is also Zhao Liang.
At that time, Rong Jiang's brain was confused, and she was about to go out with her feet, but Qian Zhi rarely called her back, so she went back to the house and sat down.
Qian Zhi knocked on the table: "I know that you are a donkey, if His Highness goes to look for you in private, you will definitely ignore it, it is His Highness who is smart, found the house, and asked me to find you back." ”
Rong Jiang snorted, sat next to him with a gloomy face, and refused to say a word.
Zhao Liang saw that she was angry, and sighed helplessly: "Your Majesty issued an order this morning, and in the future, we will communicate with Xirong, you also know that the southernmost part of our Daye is by the sea, and the seafood is especially rich, and there is iron ore in the southwest, and jade is produced in Qingzhou in the northeast. ”
Rong Jiang raised his eyebrows, and turned his face to look at Zhao Liang: "When will Yelu Minglan leave?" ”
There was a smile in Zhao Liang's eyes, and he glanced at Qian Zhi before looking at Rong Jiang again: "Early the day after tomorrow, I will personally send him out of the city." ”
Rong Jiang stopped talking after a sigh, rubbing the corners of his clothes and no longer looking up.
Qian Zhi added words in a timely manner: "I asked you to come back to discuss with you, and today I sent a letter to Gunzhou and Daizhou overnight, asking them to attack Yecheng together in response to Yunzhou's move and force the Son of Heaven to abdicate." ”
Rong Jiang was startled and went to look at Qian Zhi suddenly. She knew that Qian Zhi had not asked about the court for many years, but now she choked in her throat: "Grandfather, do you want to meddle in this matter?" Yesterday I said that all I can do for Your Highness is to ask Cheng Yi to go back to Jiangbei to control the military power in Jiangbei, how can you call me back and tell me about this? ”
Qian Zhi squinted, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes: "This is a matter that affects the whole body!" If you think he loses, what will happen to you? What will happen to the Rong family? In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, you and Prince Ying's Mansion have long been on the way, and you don't help him? Planning to sit on the sidelines? ”
Rong Jiang knew everything in his heart, so he had nothing to refute.
Zhao Liang took two steps forward to her: "Rongrong, I know that Zhao Heng has done too many wrong things, but you ask yourself, am I really the same as him?" You are angry, angry, in the future and someday, I will have to beat or scold you without words, but now, don't be angry and can't do anything? ”
Rong Jiang turned his face, facing Zhao Liang's helpless and gloomy look, and scolded him in his heart, no wonder he was a fox, and he didn't wronged him at all! Knowing that she would not care about it in person, she found her grandfather here, and she couldn't care about it! Bah!
But Rao is like this, she finally relented: "Say, you write the letter, or I write it." (To be continued.) )
