Chapter 1009: A Thousand Mountains and Twilight Snow (Part II)
Show one’s true colors in the end.
In the huge hall, the atmosphere was solemn and quiet for a while. Except for the slap that Zong Gan subconsciously slapped, no one spoke, some looked at each other, and some lowered their heads in contemplation, at this time, some people already realized what Zong Han and Xi Yin were going to do in this chess game.
Hee-in slowly poured himself a drink.
"As for the problem of Xinjun, now it is the end of all parties, and there is no way to get out. All the uncles and brothers sitting here today, you are sitting here for the sake of the Jurchens, why not stand behind Zong Pan? Now that you have a noble status and are resting with the country, we have helped the new monarch to ascend to the throne, can we be more noble and prominent? It's all for the sake of the Jurchens that there are no problems in general, but once the winner is decided among the few people at the moment today, half of the people will not be able to sleep well in the future, and the country will not be at peace. ”
"Inside and outside the city, there is tension tonight, before this, there have been many nobles fighting and bleeding inside and outside the city, and some people are missing, and they have not been seen today. Tonight, the race also arrived in Beijing, let's walk into the palace gate together, do you dare to say that Zonggan will definitely take the throne and become the emperor? If it is Zongpan who is on the throne, you will not be at ease. At this point, why not retreat? ”
A few people began to exchange ears.
Yes, now because of Wu Qibo's edict, the nobles at the top of the entire Dajin Kingdom have basically left the court to stand in line, but how much benefit can they bring by standing in line? These people were already the most prominent princes. But once they stand in the wrong line, in the next half of the reign of the new monarch, none of these big families who stand on the wrong side can be at peace for a day.
With such a big risk and such a small gain, many people are reluctant to say it. It's just that as soon as Wu Qimai's edict was announced, Zong Gan and Zong Pan began to pull people everywhere, and Zong Han Xiyin also lobbied from it, who can really maintain neutrality in such a major event? For more than a month, it has been difficult for everyone. It is also for this reason that when it comes to the end of Xi Yin's proposal, it can really fall into the hearts of many people.
And for a group of nobles who have experienced countless worldly events, at the moment, they naturally don't think that the whole thing will be a whim of Xi Yin or Zong Han.
Originally, the failure of the southern expedition, the ascension of Zong Gan and the decline of Xifu may be the only outcome of this matter, who knows that Zong Han Xiyin will stand on Zong Pan, pull all the big nobles down, and make this impasse that makes everyone feel embarrassed. Now, Zong Han and Xi Yin, who were originally fueling the trouble, are about to take advantage of this impasse to start breaking the situation.
If the layout in the middle is still Wu Qimai's participation when he was alive, then the whole reason for this is really amazing. If the southern expedition goes well and the Jurchens are strong, Wu Qimai may pass the throne directly to Zong Gan, and even have some selfish intentions, it is possible for his son Zong Pan to ascend the throne, but Zong Han was defeated in the southwest, and Wu Qimai changed his edict during his illness and dragged everyone into the water, but in fact, he gave Zong Han and Xi Yin the only opportunity to break the situation...... If you look at it from the back to the front, does the giant bear-like emperor who has been paralyzed by a stroke for several years have such considerations?
At this point, there is no recourse.
Outside, the night sky was cloudy, but there was no snow, and the air was cold and oppressive. Xi Yin had just taken his edge first, and in Zong Gan Tieqing's face, no one answered.
In the whole matter, Zong Gan was originally the most advantageous successor, but after the two sides played a game and pulled everyone down, he suddenly found that Zong Han and Xi Yin originally wanted to follow this suppressed trend and push him and even Zong Pan out of the game.
was supposed to be the emperor's candidate, but he was also strong and impressive, and in a blink of an eye, he was directly thrown away by the two who beat the side drum. Although such an idea had just been proposed, the anger in his heart could be imagined.
"Something like that...... Do you dare to tell Zong Pan? He gritted his teeth and slammed it.
"It's all for the good of Dajin, and everything can be discussed." Xi Yin said slowly, "Take a step back, if Zong Pan evils me and Mu Han and kills both of us, what benefit can he get?" In the end, when you succeed to the throne, he and everyone around him will have to be on guard. The result is far less than going up to a small one. ”
These words were slow and reasonable, and Zong Gan was not only facing Zong Han and Zong Pan at this time, but he was also facing half of the great nobles of the Jin Kingdom at this time. He didn't speak.
Zong Bi erupted: "I'll fuck you-" rushed down from above.
Xi Yin, who seemed to be old and emaciated, flipped over the table, and his tall figure rose up to meet the burly Zong Bi. The stool in his hand smashed down on Zong Bi's head, Zong Bi was already wearing armor, raised his hand to block, collided, the wooden bench exploded in the air, Zong Bi had punched Xi Yin twice, Xi Yin grabbed the armor on his chest, and slammed his head hammer into Zong Bi's front door, everyone saw two figures in the hall like wrestling and spinning and entangled a few times, and then Zong Bi was bombarded and flew out and smashed on the steps at the door of the hall. He was in the prime of life, a tumbling, half-kneeling up, with blood between his mouth and nose.
Xi Yin also had blood stains on his forehead, he opened his arms, like a giant who opened the heavens and the earth in the wind and snow, and the words in his mouth were like a tiger's roar, echoing in the hall:
"Little four, come on-"
The crowd rushed up and separated the two.
Although he has been known for his scribe bearing all year round, Xi Yin has never been a soft persimmon to be humiliated even among the top military generals of the Jurchens. Even Zong Han, Zong Wang, Lou Mu and others all respect him, how could it be because of some writing skills. Zong Bi was beaten by Xi Yin since he was a child, and the victory of this southern expedition greatly increased his self-confidence, and considering that Xi Yin was old and looked like he was about to die, so he challenged him again, but at this time, he could find that the blood in Xi Yin's chest had not been lost at all.
"Let go of me, I'll kill him—"
Although he was separated by someone, Zong Bi was furious and roared to go up. Xi Yin's lips were pursed, the sleeves of his robe were shaken, and he slowly walked to the square table of Zong Bi before, poured a glass of wine and drank it.
"I know, this time to go south, after all, the east side has won, so give in, Zonggan, you can't swallow this breath, but today everyone can't get off the stage, if you want to be hard, it's difficult. If we can consider the small one, we can also make concessions, and the small one can be picked from your side, and there is indeed a suitable one. ”
Xi Yin looked at Zong Gan: "When Zong Jun died, you adopted Qi'er as a righteous son, he is the eldest grandson of Taizu's most beloved son, let him take the throne, I am afraid it will be the most reassuring to everyone's heart." And although you are not the biological father of the child, but after all, you have the grace of nurturing, this kindness cannot be removed, and the throne is back to Aguda, and others are afraid that it will be difficult to covet it anymore, and for you, there is not too much concession. ”
Wanyan Zonggan is the eldest son of Aguta, and there is also the eldest son Wanyan Zongjun, and then Zongwang, Zongfu, and Zongbi. Zong Jun died young, and after his death, his son Wan Yan Kang was adopted as a righteous son by Zong Gan. Because of Aguta's love for this eldest grandson, he has received numerous rewards since he was a child, but because his father is no longer there, not many people are too hostile to this child.
When Xi Yin said this, he sighed: "As for me and Sticky Han, we are already old, and we don't think much about power in this life, but what we saw in the southwest made the two of us haunted." Ladies and gentlemen, I fought with Muhan for a lifetime, and the place next to me may be blameless, but on the battlefield, could it be that we are really so stupid? In the First World War in the Southwest, countless generals died, how heroic they were on the battlefield, you have all forgotten. ”
"But in the first battle in the southwest, we still lost, almost lost. Ladies and gentlemen, the southwest is like the Jurchen when we followed Taizu in the past! Even more! If we don't learn the learning of things and the method of training soldiers on their side, the disaster of destruction will not be far away, I am afraid that he will sweep the Central Plains, and when he comes to our north again, the old thing in this room today has not yet died! ”
"I and Sticky Han, I just hope that the Jurchen clan will pass this hurdle safely and steadily, if the matter of going to Beijing can be resolved safely, we will train in the clouds with peace of mind, build ordnance, and learn the Gewu in the south, as for the trained soldiers, the things created will be used by our children in the future. Fourth, sooner or later, you will be able to use it, you are delicate, your brain is not stupid, but you have to pretend to be reckless, so why did you come. There will be no conflict between us in the future, you can rest assured. When I was young, I beat you, but I couldn't get used to your pretending recklessness! ”
As he spoke, he threw the empty wine glass onto the table.
"I know that the stakes are very high, and you have to discuss it behind closed doors, and I'm afraid you won't be able to make up your mind tonight. If you pick up Saiye tonight and are sure that you will win when you enter the palace, then it will be a big deal when I don't come over and I haven't said anything, but if you are not sure, you will think about it a little and let you go, and everyone will not suffer. At this point, Xi Yin said goodbye, and after that, you have made a decision, let's talk about it in detail. ”
He bowed his hand to everyone, and after Wan Yanchang stood up and bowed his hand to him, the others, including the silent Zonggan, gave him a gift. It was only when he turned to leave that Zong Bi shouted in the hall.
"Maybe you can't beat the southwest, but you and Sticky Han are unconscious, and your people can't fight! No matter what happens this time, I will lead the troops to the clouds in the future, let's have another game in a dignified manner, if your soldiers are really bad, it means that you are lying in Kyoto today, you are stealing your life, and now you are still talking nonsense that the black flag is strong, and you want to survive! I'll kill your whole family—"
Xi Yin stopped and looked at him: "Okay, when the time comes, you can all come over, and let you see what Tushanwei, who was defeated in the southwest, can still fight." Let your soldiers—all of them leave their last words—and take their leave! ”
When he had finished speaking, he strode out of the hall, and after a while, he got into the carriage outside. The brazier was burning in the carriage, and the temperature was quite warm, and Xi Yin leaned against the wall of the carriage, and only then did he take out the silk cloth, and coughed suppressedly, and coughed for a long time, and the silk cloth was stained with blood. After all, he was old, and he had just fought with Zong Bi, and he was injured after all.
The convoy faced the cold wind, blowing through the quiet long street, and the sparse roadside was also the lights of thousands of homes. After a while, he returned to the mansion on the other side of the palace and met Zong Han.
“…… Next, it depends on how to convince Zong Pan, he will not be happy. ”
Zong Pan inherited the physique of his father Wu Qimai, his body was like a giant bear, once he was angry, his temperament was quite brutal, and it was difficult for ordinary people to deal with him head-on.
"I'll go tell you." Zong Han smiled indifferently on his serious face, "He will agree." ”
