Chapter 187
It is said that on this day, the second prince held a banquet to entertain all the princes. Because he knew that Jia Cong had returned to Beijing, and he was an important person in the plan of the day, Naite invited him as a guest. Jia Cong naturally talked about the experience of governing the country summarized by later generations at the banquet, which was praised by all the princes. He took advantage of the situation and said that he wanted to go back to Taiwan to study first, and he also wanted to take a boat to the West to visit, and he would not come out to choose a master until he was in his twenties. Although the princes know that their ambitions are not strong, they are all eager to seek talents.
Suddenly, someone came in and reported that two flowers had come from outside, carrying a box to the door, saying that a gentleman with a fairy wind had given him two hundred and fifty copper coins and hired them to deliver something. The boy said, "He said, all princes, no matter how big or small, have a share. The kings were not curious, but commanded that they should be brought in and seen.
The box is an ordinary rattan box, and there are only a few dozen copper plates bought on the street, but it is very heavy. The second prince ordered someone to open the lid to take a look, and everyone gasped together: it was full of horizontal and vertical stacks, all of which were exactly the same - tiger talismans!
It turned out that before the first seven days of the sunspot were outdated, Jia Cong went to Qin Sangu's house one morning to talk to it for a while, and took away the tiger talisman that was still in the kennel. After the mold was printed, he ran back again, and while Qin Sangu was still busy outside, he put the tiger talisman back in its place. The model casting method has existed since ancient times, and has been improved in various colors since then. There are several imitation antique masters in the capital, and the original can be imitated lightly, and many pieces have been copied. It didn't take long for it to become a big box. Gong San also stared at it silently for a quarter of an hour, and asked, "What do you want to do?" Jia Cong said casually, "Give it away." ”
Therefore, I took advantage of the fact that the prince was complete today, and sent it to them. The kings surrounded them, and picked up these tiger talismans one by one to see, they were the same as the real ones! There was an ordinary white paper note under the rattan box, and on it was the pavilion body that they had seen three times: "Princes, but one day the mountains and rivers are in hand, and I want to rehabilitate Prince Yizhong for the sake of helping some people in my later life, thank you." ”
They had long suspected who the arrow book was, and it was only today that they saw this person revealing their clues, and they couldn't help but sigh: "It turned out to be his person!" No wonder ......"
Jia Cong poked his head out and glanced at it a few times: "There are so many tiger talismans, which one is real?" ”
The eighth prince smiled: "Which one do you think is true?" ”
Jia Cong said: "It's exactly the same, it's all true, but it's not true." ”
The second prince asked, "How do you say this?" ”
Jia Cong said: "Since it is exactly the same, I think the real tiger talisman is like this." There are so many soldiers and horses in the world, if you only take one of the generals to meet a certain side, they will not be able to see that it is a copy. If you want to transfer troops, you can get it by taking one piece at will. What gets things done is good. Therefore it is true. ”
He paused, and then said, "Rare things are precious. When there is only one thing, it is naturally important, but if everyone has one, it is common. If there is a real one in it, no one will believe it, and I can't tell it. ”
The princes took the tiger talismans and looked at them carefully for a long time, and they really couldn't tell the difference. The sixth prince has been leading the army all the year round, and he is most familiar with this thing, and he has never seen anything wrong. Naizan said: "Big brother has the ability after all. People have been gone for so many years, and there are loyal subordinates to redress his grievances. ”
Jia Cong pursed his mouth beside him: "If this subordinate has real skills, where will his lord die." As soon as these words came out, he suddenly felt a burning sight around him, so he hurriedly smiled and changed the subject, "Do any of your princes know how to make up stories?" ”
The sixth prince smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
Jia Cong squeezed his eyes: "If someone can make up a story and make it very round, the princes can make some marks on their respective tiger talismans, and then arrange a story to set up." For example, a knife mark is carved on the tail of the tiger talisman, which was left by a certain year during a certain war. Or what is the trace under the belly of the tiger talisman, it is the saint who was angry with something in a certain year, and threw the tiger talisman out to smash people, but did not hit people and knocked them to the ground. Since you say it is true, there must be a statement, even if it is a broken statement, if you can say it, someone will believe it. ”
The kings clapped their palms and said, "You little ghost, you are getting more and more ghosts!" So everyone put together a tiger talisman in one place to make up a story.
After Jia Cong returned to the dart game, Gong San also looked at him and sighed: "Situ is afraid that it will be over." ”
Jia Cong said: "Not yet." ”
Gong San also said: "The prestige of the Son of Heaven is gone, and even the prestige of the Tiger Fu is gone." Why didn't you give each of them a jade seal? ”
Jia Cong said: "When they arrive in the fiefdom, they will prepare jade seals for themselves." The Tiger Talisman was obtained from elsewhere, indicating that the power of the army was obtained from elsewhere, and they would be cautious in their use of troops. The jade seal is prepared by himself, and the territory is his own, and he must not give it to others. As long as they are given a little time, even if they escape from Situ Pan's hands and return to Beijing today, no one will pay attention to him. Mr. Gong, you can also take revenge. ”
Gong San also snorted: "You just deliberately demolished their family's world." ”
Jia Cong pretended to shout: "Wronged~~ June Flying Snow~~ I have said countless times, the world of the Situ family was clearly demolished by the first emperor, don't rely on my head once every two days, okay, I am innocent." ”
Gong San also sighed, quite thoughtful.
After a few days, King Ning smiled and shook two identical tiger talismans in front of Situ Pan, and said, "You two brothers have been playing with the boss for so many years, and others have been dead for so long, and they can still mess up your game." With this loyal subordinate, you and the third and second are finally inferior to him. Regardless of whether you have the third one or not, since the eldest brother said that every prince has a share, give you one too. ”
Situ Pan was stunned, took the tiger talisman in his hand and looked at it over and over for a long time, and said categorically: "This is fake!" ”
King Ning said: "A big box, naturally it's fake." It's just, who knows? After that, one sleeve went out, and the remaining one was left on Situ Pan's desk.
Situ Pan was then released back into the house.
Standing at the gate of King Xian's mansion, the soldiers and horses around him were withdrawn, and it was deserted. When Menzi saw their prince returning, he hurriedly greeted them with tears in his eyes. Situ Pan sighed and walked in slowly.
A few days later, Liu Aiyun came to find the Jia family brothers and said, "I have found out." ”
Jia Cong was stunned: "What did you find out?" ”
Liu Aiyun said: "The family affairs of the second master of your family treasure and the family affairs of Miss Xue are all caused by the little emperor behind him. ”
It turned out that he had a friend whose brother was a father-in-law in the palace, but the master who served this father-in-law had become the emperor recently, so he knew some letters. The little emperor was young and had never thought of being an emperor before. Now although he lives under the authority of Fang Xiong every day, he is still the emperor! Now that he has become a leader, it is inevitable to think of something that he shouldn't think, and he will have a loyal escort day and night to slaughter the thief Fang Xiong. Someone recommended the three families of Jia Wang and Xue to him.
Since some people in the world are clear, some people are confused, so the little emperor's mother racked her brains to get along with these three families. The Mei family's withdrawal from relatives was a holy decree from him, and someone in his mother's family wanted to ask Xue Baoqin for marriage. I thought it would be done in one word, but if I didn't want Aunt Xue to get Baochai, all the recent marriage courtships should not be, and his cousin was rejected along with the suitor next to him. Shi Xiangyun was also his family envoy's method, in order to marry a talented and good-looking cousin of his mother's family into Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Huan shouted: "No, what about the princess Jian'an?" ”
Liu Aiyun said with a smile: "He is not meticulous in his work. Since my ticket friend can get the letter from his brother, it is inevitable that someone will get the letter from other places. Princess Jian'an was about the sixth prince's family to cut off Hu. ”
Jia Cong thought for a while: "This cut off is too reckless. ”
Jia Huan yawned: "The elders of the six princes' mothers came to our house to join in the fun, and I was annoyed to death." ”
Jia Cong exchanged a strange look with Mi'er.
Liu Aiyun said again: "By the way, because Princess Jian'an cut off her beard, Rongguo Mansion released a word, and in recent years, she will not discuss your relatives for your brothers." I persuaded the ticket holder to persuade his brother. Since there is no way to marry Rongguo Mansion, the Shi family is no longer with these families, but they still have to order someone to marry that Shi girl? It doesn't do much good. Guess what they say? ”
Jia Cong said: "Do they think the Shi family is also good?" ”
Liu Aiyun said: "He said that they didn't plan to marry Miss Shi at all, but they just used some good people to confuse their family for a while." When the second master of Bao is decided, these people have no intention of asking for marriage. The girl of the Shi family was just played for nothing. ”
Jia Huan frowned and said, "So stingy! ”
Liu Aiyun said with a smile: "Your second grandmother is probably not running away. ”
Jia Huan twisted his neck: "Horizontal and vertical is better than marrying someone from outside who doesn't know who." Nai asked Liu Aiyun, "That little emperor, are you ready to take revenge?" ”
Liu Aiyun said lightly: "The villain is just a play, how can he take revenge on the Son of Heaven?" The villain has already asked the ticket friends to release the words, now Tao Wu Luo, Yao Shun Yu soup; Eight wilderness quilts, the four seas are leveled. When Fang Xiong leaves Beijing in Japan, no matter who is in charge next, if he goes to the market to investigate, there will be many praises from today. If he wants to establish a new king, I will definitely make people send umbrellas to the people to make trouble, and they will not agree. ”
Jia Huan was stunned for a moment and said, "Is this useful?" ”
Liu Aiyun said: "Horizontal and vertical is to ask for a puppet, who is not to stand." Since it can be used to reassure the people, it is good to save some things for the Ministry of Rites. It will also cost a lot of money to play the enthronement ceremony again. ”
Jia Huan said: "Why don't I understand what you're doing here?" Didn't he want to be emperor? ”
Jia Cong stabbed him in the arm: "Since he wants to be the emperor, he can't be the prince." When the prince can still have a piece of land, no matter how big or small, it is always a place. When I was the emperor, I was depressed every day, why did there be another thief, why didn't I see a loyal minister to help me......"
Jia Huan rolled his eyes.
In the following days, all the princes left Beijing and went to the fiefdom, and Fang Xiong was stationed in Beijing, until the king of Shu left Beijing, he withdrew his troops and horses and walked with him. Jingzhong was suddenly empty.
As soon as Fang Xiong left, Situ Pan was embraced by the ministers to the palace as regent. The little emperor also bowed down and said, "Ask my uncle to preside over the government." ”
Situ Pan sighed: "Where is there any good government to preside over now." ”
After more than a month, Tianjin's Imperial Forest Army suddenly returned to Beijing without a trace! 50,000 soldiers and horses marched back to Beijing. Cao Datong is still in control of Tianjin, and I don't know whether to call him the first emperor or the current Situ Yan has not been rescued!
The last to enter Beijing were Feng Tang Ganlei and Liu Dengxi. Situ Pan got the letter early, greeted them at the city gate, and when he saw the three of them, he hurriedly said, "What's the matter!" What about the saints? ”
Feng Tanggan shook his head in unison: "I don't know what the saint is doing." ”
Liu Dengxi said with a calm face: "Let's go back first." ”
Everyone returned to the palace to see the new monarch, all of whom were called the "Five Princes". Xinjun didn't dare to be unhappy, and only stammered a few words, "The generals have worked hard." Situ Panai said: "He's just a child, and he has nothing to do with him." Liu Dengxi glanced at Xinjun, and Xinjun suddenly felt a basin of ice water splashed in his face, cold from the top of his head to the soles of his feet. Situ Pan hurriedly signaled to the eunuch on the side and led him down.
A few people put Xinjun aside, and Situ Pan inevitably complained: "What are you doing here?" I didn't do anything in Tianjin for so long, and suddenly I came back, and the third brother was not rescued. ”
Liu Dengxi said: "I have stepped on Tianjin City countless times but have never found any clues, and there is no clue to eavesdrop on Cao Datong's discussions with the people below. Suddenly, one day I got a letter from the Son of Heaven, saying that he had already accepted Cao Datong! ”
Situ Pan was stunned: "Accepted?" Where is he? Why didn't Cao Datong come to Beijing? ”
Liu Dengxi said: "There is a person with extremely high kung fu who sent him a handwritten letter, and his handwriting is definitely not wrong. said that he had his own arrangements, let us hoard troops in Tianjin first, and pretended to be still fighting against Cao Datong, he had his own arrangements. The ability to deliver letters is not high, and his speech and demeanor are also good. I asked him if he had written this letter under the pressure of the thief. He said that Cao Datong's straw bag had no ability to subdue him. Just say that and go! Although I didn't say much, I somehow believed him. ”
Situ Pan frowned and said, "What about now?" Jingzhong is in a mess, why is the third brother just staring at the sidelines? ”
Liu Dengxi said: "I don't know what the sage thinks. Later, I also wrote a few times, and in addition to that person, there was another person who came, and he was also capable. Neither of them has ever given their surnames. Until a few days ago, he suddenly came to a will, ordering the Imperial Forest Army to return to Beijing, and Tianjin to leave it alone. I waited helplessly, and came back in a daze after such a long time in Tianjin. ”
Situ Pan became more and more surprised: "The princes have divided the world by themselves, but he doesn't care?" What does he want to do? ”
Liu Deng sighed: "I'm old, I really don't know what a saint wants to do. ”
Feng Tang also said: "The last general is also the second monk who is confused, this matter is very weird, and I can't see the true face of the saint, and the letters, seals, and tiger talismans sent are all true." ”
Situ Pan complained: "If it's already messed up today, what else is he doing mysteriously." The foundation is already unstable. Nai thought for a while and said, "Since Gonggong Liu couldn't find him in Tianjin, and he said that he had already subdued Cao Datong, could it be that he had already left Tianjin to go elsewhere?" ”
Liu Dengxi said: "The miscellaneous family was also suspicious of this, but first, there was no evidence, and secondly, I don't know where he went." ”
Gan Lei said on the side: "Could it be that the saint is injured and unable to move, and is recuperating from his injuries?" ”
Situ Pan said: "After raising it for so long, it's time to go back to Beijing, the imperial doctor of Tai Hospital is always better than ordinary folk doctors." ”
A few people guessed for a long time, but they couldn't guess at all. had to be dispersed temporarily, placing soldiers everywhere and pacifying the people.
A few days later, news came from Tianjin, Cao Datong led his soldiers to board the ship from Tianjin Port and leave the port, and he didn't know where to go!
