Although Xu You said it easily, it was not easy to really finish up on the Mountain Sect. More than 10,000 unarmed prisoners of war were killed, and all of them were thrown into Xuanwu Lake - this is the martial arts training place used by the royal family to train sailors, so simple and rude, it is simply a slap in the face of An's family, and Xuanwu Lake is next to the Leyou Garden, which is directly connected to the major water systems in the city, and the corpses are soaked and rotten, what should I do if it causes an epidemic?

But should the butt be wiped or must be wiped, Xu You knows Shanzong's thoughts, this is to give him anger, and rush to do the dirty work first, if such subordinates don't cover it well, who will dare to mess with you in the future? It's not that easy to be the boss.

"Go, get all the bodies out, clean up the wrecks in the lake, and block the waterway to the Le You Garden...... You pig brain, you only care about the pleasure of killing, and you don't want to think about how troublesome it will be to deal with the aftermath? ”

Shan Zong smiled and said, "Is it burned or buried when you fish it out?" Or build a Beijing temple on the spot? The section is dull, please Lang Jun make it clear!"

Fengdong Mountain next to him was dumbfounded, in order to integrate the Ming pirates over the years, Shanzong has killed countless people, and his joy and anger are invisible, since the south of Shaohai, he has led tens of thousands of outlaws to crisscross thousands of miles of sea areas, dominating one side, and in the past, the maritime merchants called him the king of Haiyan, and did not dare to call him by his name, what kind of majesty is that?

But in front of Xu You, she was as well-behaved as a maid serving tea and water, and the contrast between the front and back was too great.

"Jingguan? Do you still want to build a view of Beijing? Xu You suddenly became angry, pointed at his servant with the horsewhip in his hand, and said, "Come on, you just take my head too, build your Jingguan, and the lord of the province will do it." ”

Shan Zong bowed his waist and said curtly: "I understand, I understand, I will find a place to burn the corpse, and scatter the ashes into the Yangtze River, which can be regarded as a good destination!" ”

Xu You glared at him and ordered: "Remember, you temporarily lead your troops to stay in Xuanwu Lake, firmly control the mouth of the river, and not be controlled by anyone except my generals!" When I have seen the Lord, I will call you to your Majesty at the right time. ”

Shan Zong nodded in understanding, and asked when he said goodbye, "What about Qingming?" I haven't seen him for so many years, but I miss his dead face a little. Didn't you follow Lang Jun this time? ”

Xu You turned over on his horse, looked into the distance, and said, "He has his business...... Shanzong, don't think that the war is over, in fact, the battle to the death has just begun! Be vigilant, the water in Jinling is no shallower than the Minghai Sea. ”

Back in Taicheng, Tan Xiaozu has been swept away, all the main roads inside and outside the capital are garrisoned, all the princes and nobles, the courtiers and hundreds of officials, the treasury of the Taiwan Pavilion, Zhang Huai's Pingjiang Army is responsible for the care, and the whole city is under strict surveillance. Then An Zishang led Yuan Can to arrange the relevant ceremonies, and Xu You returned to Moling to welcome An Xiulin into Beijing.

The mighty chariot drove slowly, An Xiulin summoned Xu You to Luan to accompany him, asked An Xiuming, and learned that Xu You was stabbed in Hanzhang Palace, sighed, and said: "I didn't think An made it like this!" ”

Xu Shunhua next to him sneered: "What? If the seventh brother hadn't killed him, would you have made him king after you entered the city? ”

An Xiulin hurriedly said: "Where do I blame the seventh brother, I just sighed ......"

Xu You's expression was solemn, and he suddenly knelt down and said, "The minister is guilty of death!" ”

An Xiulin stomped his feet and said, "Seventh brother, don't go to your heart, get up quickly." The eldest brother is to blame, the law of the country can't tolerate him, you have taken the burden and infamy for me, how can you not know it as a brother? ”

"Killing the puppet emperor, the minister is selfless in his heart, and he is willing to be condemned by the world and history. However, after the Youdu army defeated the Shen clan in Xuanwu Lake, due to the lack of troops, the fear of life was repeated, and all the more than 10,000 captives were beheaded, causing the lake to be completely red, or it would pollute the water of Leyouyuan...... This is because the minister's concerns are not thorough enough, and the Youdu army was originally a pirate who came from the Ming pirates, and he is used to being careless, and he does not understand the general strategy of stabilizing the situation in the imperial court. If it causes criticism from the government and the opposition, the minister is willing to leave his post and return to Qiantang to concentrate on running the Xuanji Academy, so as not to embarrass His Majesty. ”

When An Xiulin heard that the Youdu Army had killed more than 10,000 prisoners in Xuanwu Lake, his face changed instantly. Since the two sides have been fighting, no matter how heavy the casualties are, as long as they surrender, there has never been a precedent for killing prisoners. After all, the same root and the same species, to put it bluntly, this is just the internal struggle of the An clan, not the struggle against the alien race, it has little to do with these big-headed soldiers, and they are slaughtered, especially Xu You and the Shen family have a personal enmity, and they really can't explain to the world and their subjects.

But as soon as he heard that Xu You was going to resign and return to Qiantang, An Xiu Lin Teng stood up and said hurriedly; "Never!" With the respect of the Son of Heaven, he knelt in front of Xu You, clasped his hands, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for the seventh brother, I would have been killed by the eldest brother in Linchuan, how could I have the opportunity to be respected in the south today?" Besides, the Shen clan is one of the culprits and the first evil, even if the seventh brother doesn't kill him, I will punish his clan as much as possible......"

Xu Shunhua said coldly: "You still have a conscience!" Seventh brother, you don't have to worry, everyone in the Shen family deserves to die, kill the prisoner, kill the prisoner, whoever dares to attack you, I will kill his whole family together! ”

Xu You kowtowed again and again, and said: "Sister, the country has national laws, and there is a division to admonish sarcasm, that is the duty of the division, don't be angry for me." I have made up my mind to go, and when the Lord enters the city, I will resign from the office. ”

"The great cause has just been completed, and I am about to rely on the talents of the seventh brother, how can I ignore it?" An Xiulin resolutely said: "I will take care of the killing of the prisoners, get up!" ”

He changed his name to me, which was an official edict, and Xu You couldn't resist the decree, so he had to accept it. When they entered the city, both sides of Suzaku Avenue were full of people and officials kneeling to welcome the new master, all of whom had been strictly screened to avoid assassination against the party. However, An Xiuming was tyrannical and unpopular, and when he saw Luan Jia appear, the boiling cheers sounded sincere enough.

First worshiped the Taimiao and Taishe, An Xiulin passed the gate of Taicheng without entering, and went straight to the Changning Mausoleum located in the north of Qingxi and the west foot of Donggang. This is the proper meaning of the question, how can there be a reason to rush to the throne without paying homage to the tomb first?

Thirty-five steps around Changning Mausoleum, one zhang and eight feet high, the gate of Que, the stone statue of life, the inscription form the total Shinto, there are Tianlu and the unicorn guard in front of the gate. Tianlu lives in the east, the eyes are angry, the mouth is open, the head is held high, the five claws grasp the ground, the two horns are towering, there are whiskers and wings, the wings are scaly and long-feathered, curly like hooking cloud patterns, the body is covered with grass, and the brilliance is shining. The unicorn lives in the west, and its body shape is similar to Tianlu, but its head is tilted back, which is even more extraordinary.

The hall used to sacrifice and enjoy, also known as the upper palace, An Xiulin lay on the ground and wept, said the feeling of mourning, said that he had no choice, said that he wanted to inherit his father's will, said that he wanted to be a good emperor, until night fell, he left the Changning Mausoleum with mournful relatives.

That night, An Xiulin did not enter Taicheng, but rested in the Shanyang Palace, and the hundred officials headed by Yu Yu and Liu Ning visited in turn to ask for guilt, and An Xiulin was kind and relieved, and they were all exempted from the crime.

This is a helpless thing, although Yu and Liu are rebellious, but they represent the two top gate valves, and when they are about to launch an encirclement and suppression of the Xiao family, it is the best choice to unite the majority who can be united.

On the second day, the edict ordered the puppet queen Wang to commit suicide. In prison, Wang asked Yuan Can, who was ordered to be sentenced, and said, "Yuan Taichang, what crime are we waiting for, and why did we kill in vain?" ”

"How can you be innocent after being canonized?"

Wang said sadly: "This is just an expedient measure, I can't trust Yu Daozhen, I can't be lucky enough for Jiang Ziyan, I can't love Princess Shi'an, I can't let go of Li Qingque, wait a few months, and the back position will be Yudao Zhen." ”

Yuan Can was silent.

What can he say?

The Wang family also knew that Yuan Can couldn't help him, so he immediately committed suicide by hanging a beam with white silk, and all the concubines in the harem also committed suicide, which was already the best ending for them.

As for Princess Shi'an, An Xiulin thought of the love between brother and sister, and originally wanted to save her life, but Xie Xiwen secretly said: "At the beginning, Yan Wan's text had already publicized the ugly things of An Xiuming and Shi'an, if you don't die, why block the mouth of the world?" ”

An Xiulin hesitated, and Xu Shunhua said: "Shi'an will not die, the An family will always be pointed at by the world, is the reputation of brother and sister filthy good?" What's more, will outsiders think that you, like the dead puppet emperor, prefer your sister's bed? ”

Xie Xiwen was sweating profusely when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to hide his ears in his sleeves, and he was not worried in his heart, can such a queen really be the mother of the world?

An Xiulin made up his mind at this time, gave Princess Shi'an poisonous wine, and escorted Li Qingque to Dongshi, whipped to death, crushed bones and ashes, and admonished those who came after. The rest of Yin Su, Zhang Chu, etc., followed An Xiuming to do his best and did many evils, so he committed suicide, because he remembered that they abandoned the darkness and turned to the light at the last moment, so they forgave their families, which is also considered merciful.

Then he sent the king of Shanyang and Yuan Can to Jiangling to welcome You Yuan into Beijing, respected as the queen mother, canonized the princess Xu Shunhua as the queen, posthumously presented Gu Zhuo as the secretary, and posthumously presented Liang Xiu as the opening of the palace and the three divisions, destroyed the palace where the old East Palace of An Xiuming was located, and transformed it into an ordinary garden.

After that, it was the turn to give the ministers a meritorious service, and An Xiulin wanted to make Xu You the founding prince of the county, which was the highest level of knighthood that a courtier could receive. The state of Chu inherited the Wei system, and the titles were set up in a total of 18 levels, including king, duke, marquis, uncle, son, male, founder county duke, founding county duke, founding county marquis, founding county marquis, founding county marquis, founding marquis, founding uncle, founding son, founding man, township marquis, pavilion marquis, guannei marquis, and guanwai marquis. Among them, the prince is not a prince and is not crowned; duke, marquis, earl, son, male and fifth rank of the clan are dedicated to the clan; The meritorious heroes were knighted as the founding lords and the township marquis, the pavilion marquis, the Guannei marquis, and the Guanwai marquis.

Shang Shu's right servant shot Tao Jiang to stop him, and said: "Although the hussar general has made outstanding achievements, he tortured and killed the women and children of the Shen family for personal vendetta in Wuxing, and connived at the Youdu army to kill more than 10,000 prisoners in Kyoto. ”

Zhu Li, the general of the auxiliary country, said in a deep voice: "The right servant shoots lightly, and fights with his life on the battlefield, whoever is soft is a death, the hussar general kills a little more, but if you don't kill more, you may not be able to sit in the Taiji Hall now!" ”

Gu Huaiming, the new head of the household department, also said: "With the casualties of the thieves, who will dare to die on the battlefield in the future?" This example must not be opened! ”

Tao Jiang said sarcastically: "Gu Shangshu's meaning is that the act of killing prisoners for pleasure, and not even letting go of women and children, is it the reason why the generals will die with their lives?" ”

Xie Xiwen supported Tao Jiang and said: "If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have faults, you will be punished, this is also for the good of the hussar general, the water of Xuanwu Lake is still red, and the people are talking about it.

Di Xia said angrily: "The hussar general's merit is great, but it is not necessarily comparable to the general Wei and the chariot general, I don't know what the two generals think?" ”

Everyone thought that Tan Xiaozu would speak for Xu You, but they didn't expect him to only say lightly: "What Zuo Servant said is that the duty of the king is to appoint people according to their qualifications, reward merit and punish crimes, and the hussar general kills prisoners for his own selfish desires, and he should be handed over to the judge." ”

Zhu Li snorted coldly and did not speak. Gu Huaiming thought for a moment, stroked his beard and closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

Zhang Huai expressed neutrality and did not support either side, and said: "Thunder, rain and dew, all come out from above, my generation fights and kills Han, only obeys the orders of the Lord, and whatever the Lord says, it is what it is!" ”

This is actually on the opposite side of Xu You, the situation is like this, An Xiulin can't do the dictatorship, so he had to change Xu You's title to the founding county marquis, but he also ordered him to supervise the military inside and outside the five states of Qing, Xu, Yan, Hebei, and Henan.

Xu You has been sick since he entered Beijing, and he did not live in the Hussar General's Mansion where An Xiulin rewarded him, but still lived in the house in Changganli when he first came to Jinling...... How did you end up in the palace? ”

When Li Guannu talked about the past, he couldn't help but cry. Originally from his father Li Qi died at the hands of murder, and there were no other relatives in the family, Xu You ordered the money sent by someone to live a life, but he couldn't stand his mother being bewitched by a prodigal, and soon spent all his savings, and was sold by the prodigal son to a merchant as a concubine, and came to Jinling.

The businessman was a distant relative of the Fei family, relying on Fei Chengchang's door to make a small fortune, but he was implicated in the Nanyang Wang rebellion case, the Fei family was punished by the clan, and the businessman couldn't escape, so he was dragged to Dongshi and beheaded. Li Guinu's mother was confiscated as an official prostitute, consciously humiliated, and threw herself into the river to die. Li Guinu is the merchant's son of the moth, because he is still young, he entered the palace after being castrated and became a eunuch, because he is handsome, intelligent and clever, and is deeply loved by the eunuchs, so he was transferred to the Taiji Palace.

Xu You sighed, Li Qi died for protecting him, although Fei Shi fell for Zhu Zhi's plan, it was also indirectly related to him, it can be said that the tragedy of Li Guinu's life was completely caused by him.

"Dolphin slave, what are your plans for the future? If you want to go back to Jinling, or go to another place to settle down, you don't have to worry about anything, I will take care of the money......"

Li Guinu was quiet for a while, raised his head, his delicate little face showed a resolute look, and said: "I am an incomplete person, and I also know that Lang Jun will not treat me lightly, but wearing gorgeous clothes and eating delicious food, I don't have to work, I don't have to work hard, so what's the fun of living like this?" I still want to go back to the palace, maybe I can help Lang Jun a little bit in the future......"
