Chapter Ninety-Three: Years of Planning
Xie Yunlan frowned, was silent for a moment, nodded, and walked out of Begonia Garden.
"I want to see the hole cards in Qin Yu's hand, if it is enough, I will not save the consequences of the Xie family's long house." Xie Fanghua said.
"Are you going to ......," Xie Yunlan looked at her.
Xie Fanghua was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "In his place, compared to Qin Yu, he will not treat the Xie family well." After a pause, she said in a deep voice, "Brother Yunlan, you go and invite Qin Yu to come here." ”
Xie Yunlan nodded.
"You later transferred it to him?" Xie Fanghua was stunned.
"Those two were fortunately stopped by Qin Zheng that day." Xie Yunlan said, "Later, he gave me the person. After a pause, he suddenly thought of something, and looked at Xie Fanghua again, "But after the prince went to Linfen Bridge, you took over the general affairs, and let me help you, I transferred those two to Qin Zheng." Now they are in his hands......"
"Should I thank Qin Yu for slowing down after returning to Beijing? Or should I ask him if he softened his heart and didn't move too quickly? In other words, he found out in vain that Northern Qi could tolerate the Yu family, why couldn't Southern Qin tolerate the Xie family? Xie Fanghua's voice was cold, "No wonder he came back from Linfen Bridge overnight that day to stop Qi Yanqing and Yuyunshui halfway." Later, after being robbed by Qin Zheng, early the next morning, the emperor and Qin Yu hurried to ask for someone. ”
"Fortunately, the Xie clan has divided into clans, and now it's just a Xie family's long house." Xie Yunlan poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Xie Fanghua, "Compared to the entire Xie family, now it can be regarded as narrowly escaped a catastrophe." ”
Xie Fanghua couldn't even sneer at this time, he only felt cold all over his body, it turned out that in the previous life, the Xie family was overturned like this. No wonder it's so fast, so fast that the clans of hundreds or even thousands of years don't even have room to fight back.
Xie Yunlan nodded, "According to what you just deduced, the emperor and the four princes have been planning for many years, and the Loyal and Yonghou Mansion has always been loyal to the country, and there is nothing else to say." Even if my aunt married Northern Qi, it was to replace the eldest princess. For so many years, my aunt and the Marquis of Zhongyong have almost cut off contact, and there is only one letter for more than a year. The royal family wants to uproot the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion and the entire Xie clan, so they naturally want this kind of great crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason. Xie has a lot of moths, and after planning for so many years, and after being ready, he went to Mobei, one for military power, and the other for making evidence. However, no evidence is as good as two witnesses. If there is evidence and witnesses, then how can the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion and the Xie family protect themselves against the crime of Zhu Lian? Who would dare to vouch? ”
Xie Fanghua nodded, his heart was cold, and he said affirmatively, "They and Qin Yu must know each other, perhaps, even deeper than knowing each other." ”
"There are also Qi Yanqing and Yuyunshui." Yan Chen suddenly said, "The purpose of their coming to Nanqin is probably not just for Yun Ji. ”
If it weren't for the memory of the previous life, knowing that the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion was destroyed, the Xie family was killed by the nine clans, and knowing that the emperor removed the iron heart of the Xie family, in order to check and balance, she came up with a way to divide the clan and the clan. Then, as long as the entire Xie clan is still connected, what Qin Yu is holding in his hand must be a sharp sword that will disintegrate and kill the Xie clan in an instant, and he is afraid that it will be too late to resist.
She spoke, pausing. "I didn't wake up, and that's because nothing serious happened. A Xie family's long house, a Xie family's salt warehouse, and the rest of the Xie family's side branches that are controlled by the royal family, have all been infiltrated quietly for many years. The action is silent. And the burning of the palace, the world paid attention, but only to the situation of the four princes and queens who were suddenly deposed, and not to the Xie family. Xie Fanghua took a deep breath, repaired the plank road in the open, and Chen Cang in the dark. I've been back in Beijing for so long, and I didn't even realize it, if it weren't for ......"
Xie Yunlan pursed his lips, "For so many years, the Xie clan and all the side branches, he must have fought thoroughly and prepared everything, so he went to Mobei, and was deposed to the Mobei military camp to seize the military power for such a big crime." After he returns to Beijing, then it will be when the Xie clan is overthrown and the clan is wiped out. It's really a good plan, a good means, the prince and I have been staring at the movements of the royal family for so many years, but I haven't noticed it. “
Xie Fanghua nodded. "If you say this, Qin Yu is planning these things behind his back, the emperor will definitely know. Therefore, after you suddenly divided the clan and clan, you divided the entire Xie clan into pieces, shattered the abacus that had been prepared for many years in one fell swoop, and saved the entire Xie family, and the emperor was so angry that he fell ill and was bedridden. Xie Yunlan took a long time to ease his emotions and said in shock. The fourth prince, Qin Yu, really can't be underestimated! Xie Fanghua said a lot in one breath, suddenly sat down, and laughed angrily, "What a talented fourth prince, a good son of the emperor who is the most prolific and important." If he is like this, how can the Xie family exist? “
Xie Yunlan listened, and his face changed greatly.
Xie Fanghua continued, "Although he was not in the capital for the fire in the Fafo Temple, he must have instructed someone to do it. Because at that time, he was already on his way back to the capital. He grew up in the capital since he was a child, even if he went to Mobei, how could he cut off contact with the forces in the capital? I found out that the Xie family's long room persecuted me, took a Xie family's long room, and then, the entire Xie family was strung together by the Xie family's long room, and the Xie family's long room may have done many things that cannot be lawful, and the rest of the Xie family's back is not clean. So, find an opportunity to poke these out, there is the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion colluding with other countries to rebel in the front, and the Xie family endangering the foundation of Southern Qin in the back, so that a series of down, the nine clans, the nest is incomplete. The royal family had a reason to eradicate the entire Xie clan in one fell swoop and uproot it.
Xie Yunlan was stunned.
After a long while, Xie Fanghua opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of thick black, "I understand the reason why Qin Yu set fire to the palace and was demoted to Mobei, what he wants is not only the 300,000 soldiers and horses controlled by Uncle Mobei." Instead, he found evidence that his uncle, aunt, Northern Qi, and the Marquis of Zhongyong were closely connected, intending to create evidence that the Marquis of Zhongyong colluded with the Northern Qi Dynasty and rebelled. Then, after he returned to Beijing, he took over his uncle's military power and put the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to death. ”
Xie Yunlan looked at her.
Xie Fanghua avoided her hand and suddenly closed her eyes.
"Fanghua, what's wrong?" Xie Yunlan had never seen Xie Fanghua like this, for fear that she would fall down if she was careless, so he couldn't help but get up and reach out to help her.
"Yes! That's it. Xie Fanghua's body suddenly trembled violently, "I've been puzzled, but today I finally understood." ”
Xie Yunlan nodded, "I said, the emperor has cultivated Qin Yu since he was a child, and for removing the Xie family, he has to use Qin Yu the most." ”
"Just now, you said that in addition to the Xie family, Qin Yu ......" Xie Fanghua stared at him.
"Which one?" Xie Yunlan looked at her, puzzled.
Xie Fanghua clutched the edge of the table tightly, "Brother Yunlan, you will say what you just said again." ”
"Got what?" Xie Yunlan looked at her, and when he saw that her face was extremely ugly for a moment, he couldn't help but worry.
Xie Fanghua stood up suddenly, "I understand." ”
"If you follow your method and break ground in front of the four princes, you will definitely alarm him." Xie Yunlan said, "The emperor has cultivated Qin Yu since he was a child, and for removing the Xie family, he has to use Qin Yu the most. ”
"Such a thing came out after the division of the clan and the sect, although the Xie family's long house should be damned, it can't help but save it! The consequences of not saving are too serious, although they are not relatives of the same clan, but they cannot evolve into the fact that the person surnamed Xie and the person surnamed Xie are enemies in the future, and they will fight with Xie. Xie Fanghua said.
"If not, don't save it! Xie's long house can be regarded as self-inflicted. Xie Yunlan felt that Xie Fanghua's breath fluctuated heavily, and thought that if Mrs. Min of the Xie family's long room hadn't wanted to harm her, she wouldn't have the trouble she had today.
"When it comes to loyalty, the ancestors of the Xie family can be said to be the first." Xie Fanghua remembered that in his previous life, the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion was full of beheadings, the nine clans were connected, and the building collapsed, and then he was weak to return to the sky, so why not blindly back down with his grandfather, always thinking that the royal family would not be too ruthless, and there would always be room for it. But he didn't know that this current emperor did not have the kindness of the previous emperor, and he didn't give Xie any life at all, uprooted, and regretted it too late.
Xie Yunlan nodded, "Before the four princes burned the palace and went to Mobei, they had a lot of camps for the Xie family. It is not surprising that the Xie family's long house is obsessed with vanity, and it is not surprising that it is used by the royal family and devoured by the family. The house of the four princes was not deliberately hidden, and it was found out after a check. It's just that for many years, the old marquis and the royal family have tacitly acknowledged, one has retreated, and the other has gone on. ”
"Xie Clan's Changfang ......" Xie Fanghua's eyes were dim, "For the sake of glory, he secretly surrendered to the royal family and wanted to pull the Marquis Zhongyong Mansion off the horse." Now that he has been beheaded all over the place, he is not wronged. ”
"The royal family has long regarded the Xie family's long house as a breakthrough and has been prepared for a long time. This courtyard has been under the name of the Four Princes for many years. If it weren't for the fact that after you returned to Beijing, you did a lot of actions. didn't let the emperor seize the opportunity, so he couldn't help Xie's all the time. In addition, the fourth prince didn't seem to do anything to the Xie family after returning to Beijing. Therefore, Xie has been safe and sound until now. Xie Yunlan also felt that this trick would not work.
Xie Fanghua suddenly sneered, "The left and right sides of the Xie family's long house are next to those two courtyards, both facing the lake, and the front gate is the main gate guarded by the Imperial Forest Army, which is not advisable." Only in the back, but it turned out to be Qin Yu's yard. ”
"I don't know why it's his." Xie Yunlan shook his head, "But this one out of the courtyard is indeed in the name of the fourth prince." ”
"How is it his?" Xie Fanghua frowned.
Xie Yunlan looked at the courtyard and sighed, "It's the Fourth Prince." ”
Xie Fanghua put the two drawings together, looked at them for a moment, locked them on a courtyard behind Xie's long house, and asked, "Whose yard is this?" ”
Not long after, Xie Yunlan came back with two topographic maps, one was the topographic map of Xie's longhouse, and the other was the topographic orientation map of the neighbors.
"Yes, Miss!" The waiter departed.
When Xie Fanghua saw him go out, he called the waiter and instructed her, "Go and see where Yan Chen went?" Let him come back immediately. ”
"In that case, let's try it! It is true that you can't watch the Xie family's long room being killed. Xie Yunlan bowed his head, stood up, and said to her, "You wait a minute, I'll go get the topographic map." With that, he turned around and walked out.
"Then he's going to have to grab the handle! If you can't grasp the handle, then you can only give up! Xie Fanghua sneered, "Who does he want to kill, in a word, just kill him?" Even if it is the Son of Heaven, he cannot treat human life as a mustard. ”
"Do you think it's really possible?" Xie Yunlan frowned, "Even if you can rescue people like this and make people disappear out of thin air, if it is really successful, then it will be a big deal, I am afraid that there will be a lot of noise, and the emperor must know that it was done by the Marquis of Zhongyong." ”
"Brother Yunlan, you can find someone to get a drawing of the neighbors of the Xie family's long house now." Xie Fanghua looked at him.
Xie Yunlan was taken aback.
"If there is no secret passage, dig a secret passage to get out." Xie Fanghua narrowed his eyes, "Although the day and night are short, it is not impossible to complete. ”
"In that case, what are you going to do?" Xie Yunlan frowned.
"There is no secret passage in the Xie family's long room!" Xie Fanghua shook his head, "When Brother Yun Ji was in the capital, I asked him to help me check the entire Xie family. In addition to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, the Xie Clan's salt warehouse, the Xie clan's rice grain, and the Xie clan's patriarch, these Xie clan's main lineages, the rest of the families have only built a few dark rooms, and a few have secret passages, but they are nothing more than fornication in the inner courtyard, which does not contradict the effect. ”
Xie Yunlan was a little puzzled, "In my opinion, this is a dead end, how to escape from the fire?" Is there a secret way? When the words fell, he pondered, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "When many of you built your mansions, they left secret passages out of the city. If the Xie family's long room had a secret passage, it would naturally be the best. ”
"Xie's long house is in trouble because of the fire in the Fafo Temple, so now, Xie's long house can also escape by fire." Xie Fanghua pondered, "It's better to let this matter lose in the fire, and success is also in the fire." ”
"Even if you let him make a move, how do you want to rescue the people of the Xie family's long house unknowingly? Let them disappear into thin air? Xie Yunlan looked at him.
"I'm injured and can't move, Brother Yunlan, you haven't been injured well, and you can't avoid the Royal Forest Army." Xie Fanghua twisted his fingers, "Besides, the emperor has been monitoring the movements of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, and he may not have been very spying on you before, but since you returned to Beijing to assist me in handling general affairs, the emperor has also been keeping an eye on you." It's inconvenient for us to do it, so we can only make a move. ”
"You want him to save him?" Xie Yunlan looked at Xie Fanghua.
Xie Fanghua glanced down at his injuries and sighed, "Fortunately, he is in the capital." ”
"I haven't seen him since this morning." Xie Yunlan shook his head.
Xie Fanghua thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What about Yan Chen?" ”
Xie Yunlan looked at her, "The Fafo Temple caught fire, and I know something about that Master Wuwu." But he is a person after all, and in the Xie family's long room, counting it, the eldest uncle, eldest aunt, three brothers, and two sisters in the long room. There are seven people in total. Under the guard of thousands of Imperial Forest Army, it is not that you can disappear out of thin air. ”
Xie Fanghua didn't speak, as if thinking.
Xie Yunlan was taken aback, "How to make them disappear out of thin air?" ”
"I remember that there was a fire at the Dharma Buddha Temple, and the corpse called Wu Forgetfulness disappeared out of thin air. What if those people in the Xie family's long room disappeared out of thin air? Brother Yunlan, what do you say will happen? Xie Fanghua suddenly asked.
"Tomorrow is a gift of adoption, but it's also you and ...... Qin Zheng's first salute. The emperor also kills two birds with one stone. Xie Yunlan pursed his lips and said, "The Xie family's long house was destroyed, but the Loyal and Yonghou Mansion did festive things, and this spread out......"
"Today is Prince Ying's birthday, if the emperor lets him see a blood disaster today, he will ignore brotherhood." Xie Fanghua sneered.
"Yes! The emperor's move can be described as really ruthless. Xie Yunlan bowed, "If you want to save it, you can only find a way to do it this day and night." Fortunately, the emperor's order was not to be beheaded today. There is still some meager time. ”
"The Xie family's long house can't just be killed." Xie Fanghua put down the cup and looked at Xie Yunlan, "I once promised that if Brother Lin Xi cooperated with me, I would protect the Xie family's long house, although he didn't play a big role in the matter of the Dharma Buddha Temple, but he also tried his best to do something, to a certain extent, to balance the original Xie family's long house." What's more, now the whole world is watching how the royal family and the Xie family are after the Xie clan is divided. If this game allows the emperor to win, then the Xie family will really fall apart, and some portals will be afraid of the blade of imperial power from now on, and the emperor will take the opportunity to buy it, and in turn deal with the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion. The people who know Xie very well are still Xie himself. If it is the same as Xie Caoge after the division of the clan and the clan, then it is recorded in the ancient books that the Xie family died because of this, which is a big joke. ”
"If the execution is carried out tomorrow at noon, the time is too tight. It is impossible to get the emperor to retract the holy decree. But if you want to save people, thousands of Royal Forest Army are besieging the Xie family's long house, and it is difficult to save. If it's a robbery, it's even more difficult. If the emperor wants the Xie family's long room to die, he will not stop strictly guarding the law field. Xie Yunlan looked at Xie Fanghua, and seeing that she was silent for a long time, he spoke in a deep voice.
I have to say that after being ill for a few days, the emperor's move can be described as a sharp knife to seal his throat.
The emperor pressed the Xie family's Changfang on the charge of murdering the same clan and the royal clan, which is a big crime, and it is indeed impossible to refute it. But after the Xie clan was divided, it was a thunderous shock for the entire Xie clan.
Because Prince Ying and Qin Zheng were there that day, it was not just a matter of murdering the Xie family's own people.
The Xie family Changfang took the opportunity to harm her in the Fafo Temple, but it was just someone else's chess piece, and the person behind it took advantage of the Xie family's Changfang's dissatisfaction and jealousy of the honor of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, but he was just using a little trick to pull out the entire Xie family.
For the Xie family's long house, although Xie Fanghua has never had a good impression, he does not want them to cut off their bloodline.
If the Marquis of Zhongyong swore to oppose it, then the Xie clan's division would be a joke. If the Marquis of Zhongyong doesn't care about it, then the Xie family's Changfang will be killed all over the house. This can be regarded as a wake-up call for the entire Xie clan, if it is divided, it will be divided, and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion will not care if they live or die in the future, then the mutual care that they secretly said when they divided the clan is an empty word, and the entire Xie clan will be cold in the future, and it will really fall apart.
Xie Fanghua's face sank instantly, the hand holding the teacup clenched violently, and his lips pursed tightly. The emperor broke out because of the Xie clan's division of clans, and the anger that had been accumulated for several days exploded, and he took the opportunity to give the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion a big slap.
Wu Quan stepped out of the gate of Prince Ying's mansion, and Haitang Yuan, the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, naturally got the news.
