Chapter 46 Jiangzhou Rebellion
On August 17, the 14th year of Dahuan Jingxi, after noon, a black fast horse galloped like a fly, the man on the horse was covered with blood, and he couldn't see his face clearly, he rode to the left door in the south of Jiankang Palace, dismounted, showed his waist card to the guard, and then quickly ran to the Taiji East Hall where Emperor Xiao was located.
In the Taiji East Hall, Emperor Xiao was discussing the examination with the officials of the Ministry of Officials.
At this time, a waiter hurriedly ran in and said in horror: "Your Majesty, there is an eight-hundred-mile urgent report in Jiangzhou!" ”
Emperor Xiao and Pei Yun were both shocked when they heard this: Did something happen to Jiangzhou? Yin Hong still can't help but turn back?
"Hurry up!" Emperor Xiao looked nervous.
At this time, several ministers in the hall involuntarily stood up, thinking that there might be chaos in Jiangzhou.
The bloodstained man followed the chamberlain into the hall, and when he saw Emperor Xiao, he immediately knelt down and said with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, General Yin Hongyin, the uncle of Jiangzhou Assassin Shiguo, was assassinated and killed!" ”
"What?" Emperor Xiao didn't seem to be able to react, and almost stumbled, but fortunately, Xu Huaiyuan supported him. Pei Yun and the others were shocked when they heard this, looking at Emperor Xiao and not knowing what to say, they had always been worried that Yin Hong had a disobedient heart, but they didn't expect Yin Hong to be assassinated.
The hall was silent for a while, but some ministers couldn't help but secretly look at the six princes and Zhang Bowang, could it be that they did it?
It was Pei Yun who first stabilized his mind and asked, "You can tell me carefully and explain what is going on." ”
"Yes," the man also wiped away his tears and said hurriedly: "At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet last night, General Yin invited Jiangzhou's subordinates to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together....... at the banquet, and then he drank a lot, and then he took everyone out of the house to admire the moon, but on the way to admire the moon, he was killed by a black-clothed assassin with a sword......" After the man finished speaking, he choked tears sadly.
He wiped away a handful .......of tears and continued: "Many of the generals present couldn't be rescued, and later the generals surrounded and suppressed the assassins, but the assassins were strong in martial arts and powerful moves, and the two generals under the general were also killed. ”
After listening to his description of the assassin, Emperor Xiao became suspicious and asked, "How did that assassin escape?" ”
"He was in good shape, and at the end he sprinkled a handful of poison powder, and then he walked away with light skills." The man replied,
Emperor Xiao and Pei Yun were shocked again, and the two glanced at each other, this assassin's escape method was exactly the same as the assassin who assassinated the Nine Emperor Princes in Xiakou, and both of them suspected that the assassin who had twice was the same person.
"Xuanzhongshu orders Su Weixin!" Emperor Xiao immediately commanded.
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the chamberlain quickly rushed to Zhongshu Province to invite Su Xiang to come to discuss the matter.
After Su Weixin came in, only Emperor Xiao and Pei Yun were left in the hall, Pei Yun simply recounted the matter, Su Wei's confidence sank, and he knew that something was wrong.
"Two Aiqing, think about what to do now, right?" Emperor Xiao held down his brain and said weakly.
Pei Yun and Su Weixin glanced at each other, and after a few exchanges of deep eyes, they all had a measurement,
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this assassin and the assassin who assassinated the Nine Emperors that day are likely to be the same person, but he is strong in martial arts, and it is not easy to catch him, and the court commander sent to Wuchang has been investigating to no avail, which shows his cunning, but Chen Jian asked the court commander to go to Jiangzhou to reassure the people." Pei Yun judged the situation and analyzed it carefully.
"Pei Xiang is right, the other party's assassination is nothing more than to control Jiangzhou, so the most important thing at the moment is to send a reliable person to Jiangzhou to control the situation." Su Weixin answered, but the most troublesome thing is who to send? I'm afraid it's another strife.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Pei Yun lowered his voice, "Jingzhou is the closest to Jiangzhou, and you have to beware of the Yuan clan going down the river to control Jiangzhou." ”
Emperor Xiao raised his eyes and looked at him deeply, what Pei Yun said was what he was most worried about, "Okay, you go back to the court first, gather the ministers of the provinces, and do your best to come up with a countermeasure for me." ”
"No!" Pei Yun and Su Weixin took the order to retreat, and then hurriedly dared to go back to the court to discuss the right countermeasures.
However, as the two expected, when the court heard about it, it had already exploded, and several factions were competing against each other, and they couldn't decide to choose someone for a while.
After dinner, those ministers still stayed in the court and did not leave, and no one gave in, although it was only to arrange someone to temporarily lead Jiangzhou, but this candidate is likely to be the future Jiangzhou assassin history, Jiangzhou's geographical location is too important, important to the safety of Jiankang, so it is difficult to choose for a while.
When Emperor Xiao heard the letter and rushed to the court, he saw a group of courtiers who were silent but did not back down one after another.
When everyone saw Emperor Xiao come in, they all got up and saluted.
"Your Majesty, the ministers haven't been able to decide on the candidate after discussion, and they're still waiting for Your Majesty to decide!" Shang Shu servant shot Wang Xuzhi, who led the ancestral hall, said.
Xie Hui, who had been relatively silent just now, bowed his hand and said: "Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, Xunyang Taishou Gao Chi is the first person around Yin Hong. According to the minister's opinion, it is better to let him preside over the overall situation of Jiangzhou for the time being, first, he is familiar with Jiangzhou affairs, and secondly, it is difficult for the ministers to make a decision at the moment. ”
Although Xie Hui has been circling between the forces of the various Gaomen clans, today's Jian Yiì is unique, Emperor Xiao was quite satisfied with what he heard, so he looked at Xie Hui with a hint of appreciation, thinking that this was the best way.
"Xie Qing's discussion is very good, what do you think Aiqing?" Emperor Xiao glanced at it.
Pei Yun, Su Weixin and Zhang Bowang exchanged glances with each other, just now the three of them fought on their own grounds, they didn't give in to each other, no one wanted to take advantage, for now, although this is a compromise method, it is also the best way. None of them objected.
"Okay, then Su Qing will draft the will... Gao Chi was ordered to temporarily occupy the post of Jiangzhou Assassin Shi, and was named General Ning Shuo, with full authority to deal with Yin Hong's assassination, and to stabilize the overall situation of Jiangzhou. Aiqing... Let the pawn sign the will to send it to Jiangzhou overnight"
"Yes!" Su Weixin arched his hand,
Emperor Xiao shook his sleeves, put his hands behind his shoulders, and left with a smile......
Yin Hong's death is inevitably not an opportunity, an opportunity for him to master Jiangzhou...... Compared with any of the children of the scholar clan, Emperor Xiao prefers to use a cold general, it seems that he has to find a reliable person to go to Jiangzhou to stabilize his heart. It's a pity that what Emperor Xiao didn't know was that this move was to make wedding clothes for others...
In the early morning of the second day, rumors about the assassination of Jiangzhou Assassin Shi were flying all over the capital, and even rumors spread that the assassin who assassinated the uncle and the assassin who assassinated the Nine Emperor Princes were the same person, which set off speculation about the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Secretly, the Six Princes and the Yuan family have been pushed to the forefront." Jiang Mei leaned on the couch and said with a smile, she came to the palace of the Nine Emperor Princes early in the morning as a guest, nominally to celebrate his joy of being crowned king, but in fact to discuss the current situation with him.
As soon as Jiang Mei entered the door, she was pulled by Xiao Mocheng to play chess with him, Jiang Mei remembered that she was not good at chess, and repeatedly excused herself, but Xiao Mocheng was willing to let her go, so at this time the two sat on the couch and chatted while playing chess.
"If you dare to get along with this king, that is, he is asking for his own hardship." Xiao Mocheng smiled evilly: "Xiao Mei'er, there are really things in this world that you can't do, I don't think you can play chess very well!" Then he stared at the chess game, thinking about how he could eat one of her pieces. That serious appearance made Jiang Mei laugh.
"But have you thought about it, if the Yuan family can't hold it back, how will you end up?" Jiang Mei asked seriously, expecting him to give a thoughtful answer, but someone really didn't let her down, "This matter will be handed over to Su Xiang and Pei Xiang." ”
Jiang Mei almost spurted out a mouthful of blood when she heard this, and then gave him a blank look, which was simply unreasonable.
Xiao Mocheng looked up and saw her blushing face, bowing her head and ignoring him, and felt very cute, it turned out that she was also so delicate. Xiao Mocheng was already a little distracted, and just looked at her stupidly.
Jiang Mei knew that she couldn't deal with him, so she looked up and happened to meet Xiao Mocheng looking at her stupidly, she didn't care, and gently tapped his head with her hand, "Jiangzhou is going to be messed up, why are you in a daze?" Jiang Mei would never believe that he didn't bother with this.
Xiao Mocheng restrained his smile, looked at her for a long time, and said sternly: "Mei'er, can you leave these things to me?" I just want you to ........"
His words were so sincere and affectionate, but they were a little confused in Jiang Mei's ears. She looked at Xiao Mocheng's serious appearance in surprise, and didn't know how to reply to him for a while.
"Alas......" Seeing Jiang Mei's indifferent expression, he sighed slightly,
Xiao Mocheng got up and walked to the window, his mind was a little chaotic, he wanted to get her support before, but now he didn't want her to lie in this troubled water with a girl's house, he just wanted... I just want her to stay by his side......
It's a pity that he still doesn't understand that some people are destined to have no fate, and many years later, when he understands a qiē, his heart is bitter or bitter.........
