[0605 President Wei's counterattack]
When Wei Bao heard this, his eyes lit up, "This idea is good!" Li Liang and Princess Renmu can use the framing of Zhao Qi to clean up the people who are inclined to the Heaven and Earth Society and me among the ministers of the two classes, and we can also bring down the Princess Renmu by looking through the old case of Guanghaijun Li Hui! But what kind of evidence are we going to fabricate? ”
"The evidence must be credible! It is important to convince all the ministers of the two classes of North Korea that this is the most important thing. Wu Xuexia said: "We now control the princess's mansion, and there should be a lot of correspondence between the princess and the princess. You can forge a letter that says that the princess of Renmu instructed Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan and his son to contact the two ministers to plot to assassinate the president! ”
"No! This will not work! You can't wronged my mother like that! Princess Zhenming listened to Wu Xuexia's strategy next to her, and cried out in a very disorganized manner, which is unique for Princess Zhenming, who has always maintained a gentle and elegant attitude.
Wei Bao almost couldn't help but applaud Wu Xuexia, this is indeed a very good strategy, Princess Renmu wrote a letter to Hong Yi Hong Zhuyuan and his son, asking them to contact the two Korean ministers who opposed him, and everyone plotted to assassinate him.
This is indeed easy to believe, because it is true that the ministers of the two classes contacted to assassinate themselves!
The best lies are 99 percent true, and only one percent is false and impossible to discern.
Wei Bao asked Lin Wenbiao: 'Is it difficult?'
"No difficulty! President. We have the best copying master, who can completely confuse the real with the fake, and there is no need to copy the handwritten letters of the princess Renmu, you can use the method of reflection to synthesize a new letter word by word, which can be completely seamless. Lin Wenbiao replied.
"Excellent! Go ahead and get such a letter at once! Wei Bao's eyes lit up, and he saw hope again: "The North Koreans don't dare to openly point to me and the Heaven and Earth Society, and because I have already made an agreement, I can't take out the oath that the two classes of North Korean ministers in my possession will unite to assassinate me." Therefore, I can only forge a copy of the evidence of the crime of Princess Renmu! As long as the princess of Renmu is overthrown, Li Liang will not dare to come nonsense! ”
DSEC's method of reproducing instruments is mainly watermarked on wooden boards.
As the oldest and most effective means of imitation and reproduction in China, woodblock watermarks have made great contributions to the preservation of famous paintings.
To a certain extent, it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake, because it includes the aging part of the secondary processing. This is too professional, not to mention ordinary people, even professional people, and it is difficult to identify.
The first step of woodblock watermarking is the drawing, the second step is engraving, and the third step is layering.
The level of imitation is all in the hands of the master and the stereotyped master, if the memory is not exquisite, the words can still be seen to be the problem of the line.
If there are some awkward parts of the lines of a painting, it means that this should be an imitation.
The princess wrote a letter to Hong Yi and Hong Juyuan and their sons, asking them to contact the two Korean ministers who opposed Wei Bao, and the 'letter evidence' of the conspiracy to assassinate Wei Bao was quickly copied in less than two hours.
However, you have to wait a day or two until the pasting area is completely dry and people can't see it.
"Don't wait, just have something like this!" Wei Bao said decisively to Lin Wenbiao: "Send out the newspaper now!" Gather together all the two classes of ministers who are inclined to us this evening! Militarily prepared, 10,000 troops were transferred from Inchon to the outskirts of Seoul. Politically immediately opposed! Li Liang He doesn't want to stay in Seoul anymore! We'll send an army to drive him out!" ”
"Okay, President." After Lin Wenbiao agreed, he said: "President, now the two classes of ministers of North Korea have been summoned by Li Qi in the palace, and I have been sending people to keep an eye on them, but I have not left the palace, I am afraid that they are investigating Zhao Qi's affairs, I am afraid that they will eradicate all the neutral and inclined ministers of the Heaven and Earth Society today, what should I do?" ”
"yes, we can't just attack the Joseon Palace, right?" Wu Xuexia also asked.
Wei Bao frowned, forgetting about this stubble, "Don't wait!" The newspaper was first issued, and the common people in and around Seoul were mobilized to send the presidential guard to the Korean royal family and ask them to hand over the princess Inmu immediately! ”
"The Koreans will definitely not hand over the princess Inmu, I'm afraid it will cause a war immediately, should I wait for the garrison of Inchon to arrive and then turn against the Korean royal family?" Wu Xuexia asked.
Lin Wenbiao and Wang Qiuya nodded, which is also what they meant.
"Don't wait, the North Koreans don't dare to fight! We want people, this is still a political event! The purpose is to sabotage what they are now doing in the Joseon Palace, and they are threatening the two classes of ministers who are inclined to us! Wei Bao said decisively.
"Go ahead, the president's palace is impregnable, and the North Koreans really don't dare to take the initiative to fight us." Wu Xuexia said to Lin Wenbiao.
Lin Wenbiao gave President Wei a standard military salute, "Yes, President!" "And then went down.
Princess Zhenming, who was present, did not speak from beginning to end.
She is already a little numb, Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan, the princess's mansion, are still under the supervision of Baojun, Wei Bao did it to her biological mother again, but she is Wei Bao's personal female officer, several things are very funny together, and it is funny that Princess Zhenming has been numb.
When 500 officers and soldiers of a battalion of the President's Guard blocked the gate of the Joseon royal palace, the Joseon royal army flew to report to Ri Ju as if they were facing a great enemy.
Li Qi was looking at the silent group of ministers.
The two classes of ministers who opposed Wei Bao naturally had no scruples, they were concentrating on fabricating all kinds of evidence of Zhao Qi's crimes, and they were so happy to fabricate them.
And the neutral, as well as the two classes of ministers who are interested in Wei Bao and the Heaven and Earth Society, are worried, they have either recognized Wei Bao and the Heaven and Earth Society, or they have simply become the peripheral personnel of the Heaven and Earth Society! It will be bound together with heaven and earth.
Let them make a choice at this time, where do they dare?
But if you don't stand in line immediately, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the Joseon Palace today.
This ordeal was accompanied by more than a third, nearly two hundred ministers of two shifts.
There were nearly 200 ministers in the two classes who were inclined to Wei Bao and the Heaven and Earth Society, and nearly 300 ministers in the two classes who were loyal to Li Liang and the Joseon royal family.
This is the current pattern of the Korean court.
Judging from the time period when the forces of the Heaven and Earth Society have only entered North Korea for half a year, this efficiency is already very, very high.
Now the two classes of ministers on Wei Bao's side have almost reached two-fifths, and they are almost able to compete with Li Liang's three-fifths of the two-class ministers.
However, this situation will be different soon, and after these people are eradicated, the Korean court will regain unity and restore order!
Li Qi looked at these ministers and secretly wondered in his heart.
He couldn't talk about being happy, because he knew that this move would cost a lot of money, and it was very likely that he would face Wei Bao's crazy backlash! I don't know if there will be a military conflict!
But after really taking this step, Li Kun's mood was still very calm at this time, and he secretly admired the courage of his grandmother, Princess Renmu, and felt that although he had already passed the age of standing, his ascension to the throne was too short and he was still too immature.
Just when Li Kun's mind was full of thoughts and all kinds of thoughts were jumping, a deacon and eunuch ran wildly, stumbled and rushed into the main hall.
Gu Hong and Shen Jingyu and other important ministers, plus the emperor's relatives and relatives, couldn't help but be furious.
Shen Jingyu scolded loudly: "What kind of place is this? Are there no rules? ”
Li Liang's close attendant knew that something was wrong when he saw the appearance of the deacon and eunuch, and he was frightened.
The eyes of all the ministers present fell on the eunuch.
"What's the matter?" Li Qi frowned and asked.
The deacon and eunuch looked at the ministers present and knelt down and said, "I ask to tell the inner officials to know." It means that it is inconvenient to say it in public.
Li Liang said to the internal officials and eunuchs beside him: "Go and ask what is going on." ”
"Yes, Lord." The eunuch agreed, hurriedly trotted down the eunuch, and squatted beside the deacon eunuch.
The deacon hurriedly whispered to inform the current situation outside the palace.
When the eunuch heard that Wei Bao's army had blocked the palace gate and asked for the princess of Renmu, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said to the deacon eunuch: "Okay, you can retreat first!" ”
"Yes." After the deacon and eunuch agreed, he got up and left the main hall.
The eunuch hurriedly trotted back to Li Kun and whispered in Li Kun's ear.
Before Li Liang could finish listening, he let out an "ah" in his voice.
This news was so shocking that when Li Liang thought about it, he thought that Wei Bao's army had begun to attack the palace.
All the ministers of the two classes looked at Li Liang, and when they saw His Highness so gaffe, they didn't know what was going on.
Li Liang's mind was already in turmoil, and he stood up and said loudly: "Wei Bao's army is attacking the palace!" They want us to hand over the princess of Renmu! You say, "What now?" ”
Yes?
All the ministers of the two classes made such a sound almost at the same time, which was the same as Li Ju just now, but the harmony of nearly five hundred people was too loud, and together it was a huge explosion.
Immediately, the whole hall was in chaos, and everyone rushed to speak, some said that they should quickly defend, some said that they should quickly evacuate the palace and escape from Seoul, and some said that they would go out to fight to the death with Wei Bao's army.
Anyway, there are all kinds of theories, but no one cares about tracking down the Zhao Qi incident anymore.
The internal officials and eunuchs beside Li Liang were also speechless, obviously what he said to His Royal Highness was that Wei Bao's army blocked the palace gate and asked for the princess of Renmu, but he didn't say that Wei Bao's people were already attacking the palace. He didn't know if His Highness had misheard it in a nervous way, or if he had said it wrong in a nervous manner.
Finally, everyone quieted down.
"Your Highness, please let the army escort Your Highness out of Seoul first!" Gu Hong said: "I and several generals led the troops to confront Wei Baojun!" ”
Shen Jing said: "Your Highness can't go, Your Highness should lead the people of the whole city to fight to the death with Wei Baojun!" With His Highness here, we will surely be able to defeat the enemy! ”
Li Gui also said: "Your Highness is still temporarily avoiding, and the matter of the decisive battle with Wei Baojun will be handed over to the generals." ”
Everyone said a word, and suddenly they made a noise again.
Li Liang was distraught and gestured with his hand to stop making a sound.
Everyone gradually quieted down.
"What do you think?" Li Qi asked.
Although Li Yuanyi's position is very high, his prestige is not enough, because he is a southerner who switched to the westerners, not an authentic westerner.
But Li Liang has always attached great importance to Li Yuanyi's opinion, otherwise he would not let Li Yuanyi become the leader of the council.
Li Liang's own uncle, cousin, and several ministers who succeeded together anyway, and followed him from birth to death, were only sentences.
"Your Highness, why did Wei Bao suddenly send troops this time?" Li Yuanyi asked.
That's to the point.
Li Qi couldn't answer, and looked at the internal officials and eunuchs beside him.
Only then did the internal officials and eunuchs get a chance to speak: "Lord, Wei Baojun did not attack the palace, but only blocked the gate of the palace, saying that he wanted us to hand over the princess and concubine Renmu. ”
"Hand over the mother?" Li Yuanyi and the ministers of the two classes were taken aback. However, everyone was relieved to hear that Wei Baojun had not attacked the palace at the same time.
Only then did Li Liang know that he had misheard, and he was also relieved, and asked worriedly: "Wei Baojun asked for the eldest concubine of Renmu, why?" ”
As soon as Li Qi finished asking, he felt that his question was very stupid, why else? Because he suddenly sent someone to get all the ministers of the two classes into the palace, and wanted to purge the ministers of the two classes who were inclined to Wei Bao and the Heaven and Earth Society, as well as the neutral ministers of the two classes, Wei Bao couldn't sit still.
All Li Liang turned to ask, "What reason does he have?" ”
"It's not clear for the time being, it seems that he has the evidence of the letter written by the eldest concubine of Renmu to Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan and his son, asking them to contact the two ministers in the center and plot to assassinate Wei Bao together." The eunuch replied.
"It's impossible!" As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, Gu Hong rushed to say. Because he is the one who contacts in the middle, Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan's father and son will never get a letter from Princess Renmu or something, he knows better than anyone else.
But these words, in front of all the ministers of the two classes, are inconvenient to say, because almost two-fifths of the ministers of the two classes are inclined to Wei Bao or neutral, and have already recognized Wei Bao and the two classes of ministers of the Heaven and Earth Society.
Li Liang also knew that this was impossible, so he frowned and said, "I'm afraid he wants to add to the crime, so there is no excuse!" What now? Maybe there is a misunderstanding, which adult can go and meet Wei Bao and figure out what is going on? It is best to be someone who is familiar with the handwriting of the eldest princess of Renmu. ’
"That can only be the Lord of the Consulate, who has been in the court for decades, is familiar with the handwriting of the eldest concubine of King Renmu, and is the first high-ranking official in the two classes of ministers, and can also talk to Wei Bao." Shen Jing said immediately.
Shen Jingjiao's words were approved by most of the ministers of the two classes.
Li Liang was also very satisfied with this candidate, and looked at Li Yuanyi: "Lord Lingyi, is it okay?" ”
"Your Highness has an order, and you should obey it." Li Yuanyi said.
"Remember, no matter what, you can't agree to Wei Bao's request, Princess Inmu is my grandmother, and she has a respected status in North Korea." Li said.
"Wechen knows." Li Yuanyi bowed down to receive the order.
After such a major incident, today's ministers of the two classes reported and exposed the collusion with Zhao Qi, and they could only give up.
Li Yuanyi arrived outside the palace gate, and several gates of the entire palace were blocked by Wei Baojun's people.
Li Yuanyi found Chang Wuye, who was in charge of leading the team, and explained that he was going to see Master Taifu before he was allowed to go, and Li Yuanyi was only allowed to go alone.
Li Yuanyi had no choice but to abandon his entourage and go alone to meet Wei Bao.
Out of the palace, all the way was spreading and publishing the handwritten letter of the princess Renmu, the letter written by the princess of Renmu to Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan and his son, asking them to contact the two ministers in the center and plot to assassinate Wei Bao together.
The newspapers of the Heaven and Earth Society have mastered the technique of reproduction, as if someone inscribed a plaque and then made a plaque out of paper.
Here is a reproduction of paper on paper, very vivid, very realistic.
Li Yuanyi also took the newspaper to read it, and when he saw it, he immediately recognized that it was definitely the handwriting of Princess Renmu.
Although Li Yuanyi was a participant in the plot to assassinate Wei Bao, he did not belong to the people who contacted him in the middle, nor did he belong to the first batch of participants, and he was not very clear about the whole process.
Although it is very strange why the princess Renmu, who rarely cares about the government, would suddenly give such an order to Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan's father and son, Li Yuanyi knew very well that this time His Royal Highness suddenly attacked the two classes of ministers who were inclined to Wei Bao and the Heaven and Earth Society, as well as the Heaven and Earth Society and Wei Bao, and remained neutral, it was from the order of the Lord and Princess Renmu.
Since the princess of Renmu will give such an order to His Royal Highness this time, it is not impossible that the two groups of ministers who opposed Wei Bao were summoned last time to plot to assassinate Wei Bao, and it was from the initiator of the princess Renmu.
With such suspicions, Li Yuanyi rushed to Wei Bao's presidential palace, on the side of the Korean minister, it is not called the president's mansion, it is called the Taifu mansion, or the former consular government, because this is the residence of Park Seungjong, the first minister of the Gwanghaejun Li Hun's era.
Park Seung-jong was not only the first powerful minister in the era of Gwanghaejun Li Hun, and his cronies led the government, but also the in-laws of Gwanghaejun Li Hun, and it was rare to gather the two identities of relatives and ministers.
Park Seung-jong is still an important figure among Injo anyway.
Renzu's plan anyway was first planned in the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620, the twelfth year of Gwanghaejun, one said 1618), the masterminds were Shen Jingzhen and Li Shu, martial artists from the Westerner Party, and Ayayangjun Li Liang, Gu Hong, Shen Jingyu, etc. were all relatives of Shen Jingzhen, so they were naturally pulled in.
They also needed a well-known Wenchen to join, so they found Jin Jin, a former acquaintance who was idle at home (his father Jin Ruyu and Shen Jingzhen's father Shen Ji died in Zhongju together during the Renjin War), "A word agreed, so they decided to push Dai's policy."
In May of the second year of the Apocalypse (1622, the twelfth year of Guanghaijun), Shen Jingzhen visited the former envoy Li Gui in the name of condolences to Mrs. Li Gui, and clarified the intention of the move, Li Gui agreed, so Li Gui's son Li Shibai, Confucian Jin Zidian and Shen Qiyuan, and former soldiers Cao Zuolang Cui Mingji all joined the coup group one after another.
In the autumn of the second year of the Apocalypse (1622, the fourteenth year of Guanghaijun), Li Gui was appointed as the envoy of Pingshan Prefecture, and Li Shu, the envoy of Changtuan Prefecture, was the only two people in the core of the coup d'état, and the two of them agreed to raise affairs in the winter of that year.
However, after that, their plan was full of twists and turns, first Li Gui wanted to use Shin Kyung-jin as his subordinate Chinese army, but Shin Kyung-jin's whereabouts were strange, and he was suspected by Park Seung-jong, the leader of the council, and asked Gwanghae-jun to transfer Shin Kyung-jin as a special general of Hyosung-ling.
In the following three months, Li Gui "entrusted himself with the enemy, paid close attention to military affairs, and took unusual measures", and at the same time obtained the permission of Guanghaijun to allow him to contact Changtuan under the pretext of cross-border tiger hunting, Li Gui hinted at his plan anyway to Marshal Han Junqian and his boss Huang Haidao to observe the two feudal officials of the territory, Han Junqian was the father-in-law of Ayayangjun, and acquiesced in this, while Li Ming slightly leaked the matter to the powerful people in the court, resulting in Li Gui being impeached by the Sixian Palace, in December of the second year of the Apocalypse (January 1623, In the fourteenth year of Guanghaijun, he was dismissed.
As a result, Li Gui's plan was interrupted.
At this time, a person named Liu Tianji reported Li Gui's ill-intentioned intentions to the powerful people in the DPRK, and Li Erzhan instructed the two divisions (Sixian Mansion and Si Yuan) to expose Li Gui's conspiracy to "support the West Palace (Concubine Renmu)", and asked Guanghaijun to arrest Li Gui and Jin Zidian for a thorough investigation.
Because Li Gui's daughter and Jin Zidian bribed Kwang Hae-jun's favorite concubine Jin Jieshi to dredge it, Gwanghae-jun was already dissatisfied with Li Erzhan's seizure of power, so Li Gui and the entire coup group escaped.
In order to avoid suspicion, the plan was postponed for another two months.
After Li Gui left office, Li Shu became the only remaining fruit, and he used his power to train troops in the Changtuan mountain city of Dejin as a coup d'état.
Ayayangjun donated hundreds of gold to let Shen Qiyuan and others secretly recruit coup soldiers, and then Jin Jin, Li Gui, Cui Mingji and others planned the date and specific arrangements for the event, the date is April 12 (the twelfth day of the third month of the lunar calendar), and the general (commander-in-chief of the operation) is the "known general" Jin Jin.
Despite this, the coup group was still afraid of the regular troops garrisoning Seoul, the Metropolitan Supervisors, and felt that it was necessary to win over Li Xingli, the training general who commanded the Metropolitan Supervisors, so they asked Li Xingli's in-law and coup group member Zhang Wei to persuade Li Xingli and win his internal response.
Just when everything was ready and only the east wind was missing, a participant named Lee Er Cho spread the coup plot, and finally Park Seung-jong learned that in order to lead the government, Park Seung-jong asked Lee Er Cho to announce the coup d'état, which was the eve of the coup date (March 12).
When Jin Zidian learned about it, he hurriedly offered wine and Jin Jie's, so Guanghaijun and Jin Jie's and other concubines spent all day drinking in Yushuitang.
At this time, Park Seung-jong had already set up a push-shackle hall and reported the change of Lee Hae-jun to Gwanghae-kun, but Gwanghae-kun was having a banquet, so he didn't care.
Due to the repeated requests of Park Seung-jong and others, Gwanghae-jun reluctantly ordered the ministers to be summoned, but at this time, it was late at night, the palace gate was closed, and the ministers could not enter the palace, so they gathered at the Bibian Division instead.
Park Seung-jong could not get Gwanghae-kun's will and believed in his relative Lee Heung-ri, so he postponed the investigation.
In this way, the plan launched by Li Qi and them succeeded anyway.
Therefore, Li Yuanyi is very familiar with the mansion where Wei Bao lives now, which was originally the residence of the powerful minister Park Seungjong.
Along the way, Li Yuanyi thought of all kinds of rhetoric, no matter whether the letter written by the princess Renmu to Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan's father and son was true or false, Li Yuanyi came up with a set of corresponding statements.
Who knows, he can't even get through the door.
"Why don't you let me see Master Taifu? I have something to do! Li Yuanyi pressed the fire.
If Wei Baojun really attacked the Joseon Palace, these two classes of ministers would be scared to death.
But Wei Baojun just blocked the palace gate, and if they didn't really fight, their momentum would be able to recover a lot.
Because everyone knows very well that Wei Bao's army is in Seoul, and there are less than 2,000 people, all of which are used to protect Wei Bao.
And the royal army has more than 30,000 people!
Therefore, in terms of numbers, the Korean royal army has an absolute advantage.
This is a situation where there is no fighting, if Wei Bao and the Korean royal army have already fought, no one can think so calmly about the comparison of the strength of the two sides.
"I'm sorry, but the president can't just be seen by a single person!" Guarding the door outside the president's mansion was a company commander, who had already been instructed, and Lin Wenbiao's instruction was that the president would not see the lobbyist of the North Korean royal family!
Therefore, the company commander of Wei Baojun's guarding the door didn't even bother to pass the word.
How can Li Yuanyi say that he is also the current two classes of ministers leading the government, if it is placed in the Ming Dynasty, it is the same as the senior official of the first assistant, it can really be said that it is above ten thousand people under one person! I would never have thought that I would be humiliated like this at the door of Wei Bao's mansion!
"Then I'll meet Lord Taifu's cronies and ask why you blocked our palace, it's always okay, right?" Li Yuanyi asked with a retreat.
The company commander guarding the door did not shirk this time, but said coldly: "I can ask someone to help you with a word!" Remember, don't open your mouth and shut up to find our president in the future! The president is something you ministers can find at will? ”
Li Yuanyi didn't answer, his face was blue with anger. However, he had no choice but to stand and wait outside Wei Bao's president's mansion in the cold wind.
Not long after, Lin Wenbiao came out in person.
didn't let Li Yuanyi wait long, otherwise at Li Yuanyi's age, standing in the cold wind for so long, he would definitely faint from the cold.
Although it has passed the first lunar month, North Korea in February is still cold and frightening.
After Lin Wenbiao came out, he let Li Yuanyi enter the gate of the president's mansion and invited Li Yuanyi to the side room inside the gate.
"The president has already fallen asleep, please forgive me." Lin Wenbiao was very polite. Although he has a fierce face, Lin Wenbiao has been serving as the manager of the Statistics Bureau by President Wei's side for a long time, and he has already trained a deep city government, and he has already taken off the temperament of the original willow.
With Lin Wenbiao's current ability, it is enough to go to the North Korean officialdom and directly get a position to lead the government.
"Thank you, sir, for seeing me." Li Yuanyi had seen Lin Wenbiao and knew that Lin Wenbiao was an important steward around Wei Bao, so he was also very polite. Li Yuanyi said straight to the point: "Lord Taifu must have a misunderstanding about King Renmu and Concubine Niangniang, King Renmu and Concubine Niangniang are peaceful in nature, and rarely ask about the government, it is impossible to write to Hong Yi and Hong Zhuyuan father and son, let alone assign them to contact the two classes of ministers in the center and plot to assassinate Master Taifu together." ”
"It's not the order of the princess of Renmu, but the order of Li Liang?" Lin Wenbiao responded indifferently.
Li Yuanyi was shocked when he heard this, he knew very well that a reconciliation had been reached between Wei Bao and the Korean royal family, and Wei Bao would no longer pursue the matter of nearly 300 ministers from the two shifts conspiring to assassinate Wei Bao.
