Hunting (5)

That night, Ahmad sent his eldest grandson, Maruddin, to Cangyun Temple.

The development of the situation did not seem to be as bad as the analysis of the chief of the mountain road, and more than ten days have passed, and there has been no change in the capital. Pingzhang political affairs Ahma's heart slowly relaxed when he mentioned his throat, and he began to sit in a sedan chair to go to the court, keen on the days of fighting for power and profit. In private, he followed Dieshan's suggestion and kept in constant contact with the generals of the Left-behind Division in the capital, trying to buy his family with heavy money and generous gifts.

For Ahma's rude behavior, Prince Zhenjin did not accuse him again. After being reprimanded by Kublai Khan, he seemed to have changed as a person, and he was submissive to Ahma and his henchmen Hao Zhen, Zhang Hui and others in the court.

Seeing this, Ahma secretly began to regret it in his heart. Repentance should not be misjudged and let his eldest grandson suffer with a monk. Several times I sent people to Cangyun Temple to pick up the children and go home, and the people all reported that the Lord of Cangyun Temple took Ma Luding to travel the world. At this moment, the master of the Taoist temple has been replaced by a senior disciple of Longhu Mountain, and he does not know anything about the whereabouts of Dieshan and his disciples.

Ahmad was shocked, and felt more and more that his judgment of Dieshan's life experience was reasonable. Just as he was worrying about how to cover up this matter and not let people catch the pain point in front of Kublai Khan and play the previous book again, the crown prince Zhenjin ordered that he would go out of the city to worship the Buddha and pray for victory for Kublai Khan. The province of Zhongshu is requested to sort out incense and candles, plain robes, broken silver, japonica rice and other almsgiving items without delay.

Officials in Zhongshu Province were reluctant. When the treasury is empty, it is really extravagant and wasteful to worship those clay puppets and wooden crucibles with great fanfare. But the officials also don't want to have too stiff relations with Zhenjin, after all, the other party is Kublai Khan's heir, once they are jealous, when Kublai Khan's dragon returns to heaven in the future, everyone will not have a good result.

So, at Ahma's behest, the province symbolically fulfilled a part of the real gold request and sent away the herald. Who would have thought that on the same night, something happened suddenly.

At about three o'clock, Ahma was woken up in his sleep by the butler through the window. Just when he was about to get angry, the voice of his henchman Hao Zhen came in from outside: "Xiangye, Xiangye, something is wrong, the prince's cronies Wang Zhu brought more than a hundred guards to Zhongshu Province to rob!" ”

"Who?" Hearing the words of the prince, Ahma's tiredness was half gone, and he put together his clothes and asked vigilantly.

"The prince's cronies, the former king of Yizhou Qianhu, and a monk surnamed Gao, blocked the door of the silver treasury of Zhongshu Province, scolding us for neglecting Buddhist affairs, and deliberately did not want His Majesty the Emperor to triumph as soon as possible. The soldiers who guarded the treasury reasoned with them and were beaten by Wang Shuquan. If Xiangye doesn't go, those guards will open the silver vault and move the silver! Hao Zhen's statement was full of tears, he was the first Zhongshu provincial official to rush to the scene after hearing the news, but he was beaten violently on the ground by a fierce monk surnamed Gao, and the official hat on his head was flattened. Everyone couldn't afford to offend the prince's cronies, so they had to run to Ahma to be the master.

"Wait, I'll go. The national treasury, even the emperor should not be touched lightly, let alone a prince! Ahmad said angrily. At this time, the crown prince Zhenjin gave him another excuse, and asked Kublai Khan to ask for military power for his son, and there was a new rational basis.

"Master, who?" Ahma's favorite concubine stretched out her arm, hugged Ahma's fat waist, put her head on it, and asked greasyly.

"The prince sent someone to rob the silver vault, joke! I'll come when I go, and you will sleep alone! Ahmad comforted himself as he dressed himself in the service of the maidservant.

"Anyway, the country is his father and son's land, and he can move it as much as he likes, so why bother with this." He took Ahmad in his arms and continued to Sarai. It's not a big deal if the sky falls outside, and being able to use her bed kung fu to confuse Ahma is the first priority for her. This old man, whose waist is like a bucket and whose body is like a fat pig, has more than 500 women, and he has missed this opportunity tonight, and he doesn't know when he will get his favor next time.

"Sleep well, be good, the master will hurt you again when you come back!" Ahmad leaned down and gently pinched his nose. This little goblin is made of water, and when it is entangled, it is refreshing. My body is not as good as before, otherwise, while sitting in a sedan chair, you can also have a good time.

"Master, ...... he moved his own money?" Hold the love and reluctantly let go of the arm.

"The treasury is the treasury, and the money in the treasury is not the emperor's!" Ahmad replied as he walked out.

Who is not the emperor's family? Suddenly, a question broke into his mind. After managing Kublai Khan's finances for so many years, it seems that he never realized the problem. For a while, I couldn't think of an answer in a daze. I just feel that if the crown prince is allowed to move, he will lose face in this ordinary political matter, and he will also encounter trouble in allocating materials to Kublai Khan in the future.

"Go and tell Lord Bolton to bring some people to testify!" Halfway through, Ahma commanded Muhammad, the steward. (Please support the drunkards to 17k)

Muhammad said yes and rode away. More than a dozen guards escorted Ahma's official sedan chair and rushed to the bank treasury of Zhongshu Province with great vigour.

In order to facilitate transportation, the silver vault was built near the pond, not far from Ahma's home and the imperial city. A moment later, Ahma, who was sitting in the palanquin, heard the commotion, gently opened the door of the palanquin, and by the light of the fire, he saw hundreds of guards and dozens of prince's guards pushing each other, making a mess.

"Get out of the way, give way, Lord Pingzhang is here, Lord Pingzhang is here!" Hao Zhen rushed forward and shouted threateningly.

Yinding and the guards retreated one after another, making way for Ahma's sedan chair. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ahma slowly got out of the sedan chair, cleared his throat, and asked the prince's guards: "Who asked you to come, don't you know that robbing the national treasury is a crime of extermination?" ”

"Here is a handwritten letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the materials for worshiping the Buddha are not enough, so that the Buddha can appear and bless His Majesty Kublai Khan." An ugly monk stepped out of the crowd and held up a letter of hand-rolling respectfully in front of Ahma.

"The national treasury, not the private treasury of the inner government, the prince has no right to call it!" Ahmad pushed away the prince's letter and put on a business-like posture. Tonight's affairs must not be weak, otherwise, the old tricks will be repeated during the prince's imprisonment, and Zhongshu Province will be in big trouble.

"The prince's warrant, do you dare to disrespect?" The ugly monk saw that Ahma did not take over, and asked angrily.

"Even if the prince himself comes tonight, he can't open the door of the silver vault. Everyone, please come back, tomorrow morning, this official will naturally ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for guilt! Ahma arched his hand and said in a humble and arrogant manner. With a glance, he found that almost all the officials of Zhongshu Province under his command were alarmed, and they stood on the periphery one by one to watch the excitement.

"Colleagues, please bear witness to tonight's events...... "Ahma shouted to his colleagues on the outskirts of the crowd, and before he could finish speaking, a familiar voice sounded in the shadows.

"Then Lone will come to you in person!" With an angry shout, Prince Zhenjin slowly stepped forward under the support of several guards. Behind the guards, Zhang Yi, the deputy envoy of the privy council, slowly squeezed into the crowd with a thousand ironclad guards.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what do you mean by this!" Ahma asked sharply. Faintly feeling that something bad was going on tonight, he turned around and gave the right Shiro a look at Tuohuan Zar, who jumped on his war horse and rushed to Yinding in a few steps.

"Under the holy decree, hundreds of officials kneel on the ground to receive the decree!" The crown prince Zhenjin ignored Ahma's question, took a roll of yellow silk from the hand of the cowardly Xue Qin Changqing, and held it high. (Please support the drunkards to 17k)

"Long live the Great Khan!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ahma's minions knelt down at the same time, and Ahmad hesitated and fell to his knees. When Tuohuan Char and the others saw Ahma kneeling, they had to kneel down with Yinding.

"Ahmad has been in charge of Pingzhang for many years; Repeatedly betrayed my trust. Corrupt the law and frame colleagues. Withhold military rations and spy on the throne. Such a disloyal and unrighteous person will be punished by heaven......." Zhenjin read coldly, and his rich voice spread throughout the audience through the night wind.

"No, this is not Your Majesty's holy decree, Your Majesty can't write this tone!" Ahmad looked up and shouted.

"Ahma, take it for me!" Zhenjin stopped reading and shouted.

The ugly monk and the king of a thousand households wrote one left and one right, and went straight to Ahma. Several Afu guards woke up like a dream, drew their swords to protect Ahma, and Wang Shu took out a golden and round thing from his sleeve, and pushed it lightly, and pushed it out of the circle.

"He's not a prince! Don't be fooled, everyone! Ahma shouted, turned and ran towards the silver group, and only ran a few steps, but Wang Zhu caught up from behind, and with a blow to the back of the head, half of his neck was crooked.

"On the orders of the crown prince, we will eliminate traitors for the country. Those who lay down their arms are not to blame for the past! The king of a thousand households shouted with a bronze hammer held aloft. This moment, he has been preparing for many years. (Please support the drunkards to 17k)

The year before last, there was a severe drought in his hometown, and Wang rushed back thousands of miles to help the poor with two taels of silver in his arms. As a result, when he returned home, he was waiting for a roomful of corpses. Because his parents and younger brother could not pay the money required by the transit envoy to buy the road, they could not leave their hometown to join relatives and friends, and starved to death at home. And the neighbors who came to help collect the corpses were unable to pay the "burial tax" and could not let the dead be buried in the ground.

Wang Shu paid for the funeral with his military salary, and then killed the tax collector and died in the rivers and lakes. Three months later, he was found by the prince's cronies, who gave him a bronze hammer and told him that all his sins were caused by the great traitor Ahma.

The fierce and vicious king and the high monk made all the silver Ding lose their fear. Several outlaws wanted to resist, but Yan Yi was commanded by Zhang Yi to rush with the ironclad army, and immediately scattered.

In the chaos, Qin Changqing and Wang Zhu successively killed Shangshu Zuocheng Hao Zhen, Shangshu Right Cheng Gengren, Right Shilang Zhongtuo Huanchaer and other Ahama henchmen. It was killed until the east turned white, and hundreds of officials and servants who were involved with Ahmad died in the chaos. The crown prince Jin Zhen still refused to stop, commanded Zhang Yi's soldiers and horses, and went straight to Ahma's mansion to kill.

Someone had already reported the disaster to Ahma's house. Ahma's eldest son, Husin, with hundreds of henchmen, closed the gate and resisted to the death with the help of the courtyard wall. At the moment of life and death, Hu Xin couldn't care about his property, so he put dozens of large boxes of silver ingots under the courtyard wall, and told the family to keep the house for a day, and they could get a five-tael silver ingot. Under the heavy reward, everyone was brave, and they actually played with momentum, Zhang Yi and Yan Yi rushed three times in succession with soldiers and horses, and they were all shot back with bows and arrows by the family members.

At daybreak, the remaining Sidarushua Chibodun arrived with the soldiers and horses to protect the capital, blocking the nearby streets from afar. Wang Shu, Qin Changqing, Gao Monk and others were overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward and repeated the content of the holy decree again. Urge Bolton to bring in one or two new artillery pieces to destroy the walls of Ahma.

"Lord Botun, we are here to eliminate traitors for the country, please put state affairs first, don't think about personal relationships!" Privy Deputy Zhang Yi solemnly admonished. Bo Dun was the main general in charge of the defense of the capital, and he had always had close contacts with Ahma, and if he did not understand the overall situation at this time, I am afraid that it would be another trouble.

"Got it, show me the decree. Please come out and appease the soldiers! Bolton replied quietly. He had just come from the silver vault, and Ahma** looked very miserable. Some lawbreakers also took the opportunity to gather together and snatch silver from the treasury in a chaotic manner. The crown prince and his guards, however, were preoccupied with cutting down Ahma's cronies and ignoring the chaos in the treasury.

Bolton ordered the mob to disperse the silver looting and reseal the bank. Then he led his subordinates to hurry to the vicinity of Ahma's house.

"Fengtian carrier..."Zhenjin walked out of the crowd under the embrace of Qin Changqing and others. Exalt the Divine Decree, read.

At this moment, something happened suddenly. Shangshu Zhang Jiusi, who was following behind Bo Dun, pointed at the prince and shouted: "Fake, he is not the prince." The crown prince is fake, and so is the holy decree! ”

Botun shook slightly, and immediately rushed forward. The soldiers and horses left behind saw that the master would move, and followed the killing general. Zhang Yi, Yan Yi and others couldn't figure out whose words were correct, so they panicked for a while, and let Bo Dun lead people to scatter the iron armor of their own side and kill them in front of Zhenjin.

When the "prince" saw that Botun had been killed, he dropped the holy decree and turned around and fled. was caught by two cavalrymen and pulled off his horse directly. As soon as the robe and golden crown were gone, the prototype immediately appeared, where was the prince, it was clearly a little eunuch next to Zhenjin.

Zhang Yi knew that he had been fooled, sighed, and put down the treasure knife. The ironclad soldiers who followed him had already slashed and killed in the middle of the night, and they were already exhausted, but when they saw the commander abandon their weapons and surrender, they followed suit, and in the blink of an eye, they were surrounded by the soldiers and horses of the left-behind division, and they lost their ability to resist.

For a time, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Ahma's eldest son, Husin, rushed out of the palace with his family members and slashed at the false prince's subordinates. Qin Changqing, Zhang Yi, Yan Yi and others were killed in the chaos, and the high monk turned around and wanted to escape, but was shot by a cold arrow on the street corner.

Wang Zhu killed more than a dozen people with a copper hammer, and when he was exhausted, he was chopped into meat sauce.

After another half an hour, Ku Xin still refused to stop. But Botun gathered his men and horses and surrounded him and Muhammad and the others.

"What do you mean, Lord Bolton?" Kushin cried out as she wiped tears from her face.

His father is dead, but the murderer is a fake prince. The real culprit behind the scenes can never be found, and Hu Xin really can't swallow this breath. Therefore, if you don't kill the people brought by Zhang Yi, you will not be willing to give up.

"The crown prince is fake, but the holy decree is not necessarily false!" Botun shook his head and sighed a few times, pointed his spear at Husin and said, "You have killed the enemy who killed your father with your own hands, now abandon your weapons and surrender, I can guarantee that you will die without bloodshed." I have just sent someone to occupy your father's mansion, and your majesty's true decree will arrive soon! ”

"What?" Kushin asked in surprise. The successive changes exceeded his ability to think, and his mind was like a pot of porridge, and he didn't know what was wrong.

Botun shook his head, not reasoning with this mindless man. Several wrestlers rushed up and threw Husin and Muhammad to the ground. Afu Jiading still wanted to resist, but was killed by the soldiers and horses left behind, cutting down most of them, and the rest threw themselves into the river and jumped into the lake, seizing the road and escaping.

At noon, the real prince Zhenjin, the privy deputy envoy Polo led the Zhuozhou soldiers and horses into the city. It was announced that the Ahoma had gathered a rebellion last night, and was suppressed by the troops left behind by the troops of the remaining Sidarushua Chibotun. (Please support the drunkards to 17k)

The government proclamation stated: Ahmad led the rebels to attack the treasury, resulting in the loss of more than 100,000 ingots of silver. Cowardly Xue Qin Changqing, Yizhou Qianhu Wang, Privy Deputy Envoy Zhang Yi, Forbidden Army Commander Yan Yi and others died in order to protect the silver treasury.

Bo Dun has made great contributions to countering the rebellion, and he and his generals have been promoted to three levels and assigned to other places for reuse.

As for what the truth is, and how it needs to be erased to erase the truth of the night, it is the duty of the historian, and Kublai Khan's father and son are too lazy to worry about it.

Five days later, Kublai Khan's decree was delivered to the capital, and as requested by the crown prince, he rewarded a firm official. He ordered Kuxin to be hanged in the city, and the rest of the men of Ahma's family were taken to the suburbs to be beheaded, and more than 360 family members in the house had to flee in a hurry, more than 50 Ahoma wives, and more than 400 concubines were sent to the bitter cold land outside the Saiwai to be slaves.

In this case, a total of 714 members of Ahma's henchmen were involved. Kublai Khan ordered "to depose him and put him in his name". Under the auspices of the crown prince Jin Zhen, Lu Shirong, the new head of the household department, led people to confiscate Ahma's family property, and obtained a total of 12 warehouses of gold and silver in various places, equivalent to more than 6 million taels of silver. There are more than 50 grain warehouses and more than 70 manors. In addition, in a manor in Ahma, near Dadu, two warehouses of moldy baked cakes were copied, totaling more than 100,000.

The people who participated in the raid were puzzled and asked the servants of the guard library what was the use of baking cakes. He replied: "My lord Zeng Yun, when he was young, he starved, thanks to someone giving half of the baked cake to survive. So, stock up on the pancakes in case you need them! ”

The listener choked.

In April, the turmoil calmed down. Kublai Khan promoted Ye Li, a Han Chinese, to the post of Pingzhang of Zhongshu Province and succeeded Ahma. Lu Shirong is the deputy of the country's financial management.

Ye Li suggested using the gold and silver confiscated from Ahma's house as collateral to buy military rations from merchants in various places at a price 30% higher than the local price in the capital. Settlement is based on the actual amount before shipment to the army. Kublai Khan allowed it, and by virtue of this, those who loaded the grain were rich.

Ye Li also suggested that Kublai Khan exempt the areas where Jiangnan was at war with the Broken Capture Army for three years, and divide the terra nullius throughout the country to the displaced people, and Kublai Khan also allowed it, and the people in the north were at ease.

In the same month, Boyan defeated Haidu and beheaded more than 30,000 people.
