Chapter 188: The Eleventh Year of Yonghe
As Murong Jun's brother, Murong Ke can be said to know his temper very well, not to mention his thoughts.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that at this time, I would directly please the emperor and cater to his wishes. But for Murong Ke, it is different, first of all, because whether it is Murong Chui or Murong Jun, they are all his brothers.
Another one is because Murong Ke's personality is more generous, and he has always been more fair. He knew very well that Murong Trai was unlikely to rebel, and besides, Murong Trai was very talented, and if he could be reused, he would definitely be able to make a great contribution to Yan Guoguo.
It is precisely because of this that in the past, when Murong Jun wanted to belittle Murong Chui, he would stand up and admonish. Otherwise, how could Murong Chui become the King of Wu now, it would be good if he wasn't killed.
To what extent does Murong Jun hate Murong Trai, for example, Murong Trai was called Murong Ba at the beginning, how domineering this fame is! But Murong Jun doesn't like it! felt that this was a threat to himself, so he used the excuse that Murong Ba once fell off a horse and lost a tooth, and renamed him Murong Que.
You say this is not disgusting! But this was not enough, not long after, under the pretext of fulfilling the divination hexagram, he changed his name to Murong Trai.
After that, he was sent to Northeast Longcheng to stay here, and as a result, Murong Chui did a very good job here, and the officials and soldiers supported him one after another, and he was very popular with the people.
As a result, Murong Jun hated him even more, and he didn't let him stay behind, so he was directly transferred back to his side and served as the assassin of Jizhou. And now that something like this has happened, it has only been less than a year, and the bad impressions of the past are still clear in his mind, so it is strange that Murong Jun can have a good face.
"What the two Aiqing said, do you think that the queen is bullying the king?" After hearing the words of the two, Murong Jun's face became more and more unsightly, and he said slowly.
In a fit of rage, he seemed to feel that everyone was looking towards Murong Chui, just like his father had done back then.
"Your Majesty is angry, and the ministers dare not doubt the queen's words! It's just that Jicheng and Jizhou are hundreds of miles away, and the queen lives in the palace, so I am afraid that I can't see it in detail. If someone uses this to divide the monarchs and ministers of the country, let's do something rashly~ I'm afraid that we will fall into the enemy's trap! Seeing his face, Murong Ke hurriedly said.
"What the King of Taiyuan said is true, this matter still needs to be investigated in detail, and you can't kill innocents by mistake!" Yang Lu chimed in.
"According to the two Aiqing, how to deal with it!" Murong Jun is very open-minded, so although he is still angry in his heart, he still listens to the opinions of the two.
"In the opinion of the ministers, this matter is important, and it is good to summon King Wu to inquire in person. In order to verify his heart, His Majesty might as well first issue an edict to surrender him to the Duke of Wu, if he really has the heart of disobedience, he will definitely rebel in anger. If there is no change in his movements, and he comes to face the saint in person, it means that his loyalty is the same, and this rebellion is naturally fake! After thinking about it for a while, Murong Ke gave a suggestion.
I have to say that this is a plan to kill two birds with one stone. The most important thing is that there is no need to kill Murong Trai directly, there is still time to find out the facts.
Murong Jun listened to this, frowned and thought for a long time, then said, "Since this is the case, then follow what you say!" The edict was written by me personally, and you secretly ordered the defenders of Jicheng and various places to secretly strengthen their defenses in case of accidents! ”
"Obey the order!" Seeing this result, Murong Ke couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed down.
At this time, Murong Chui, who was in Jizhou, didn't know that for no reason, a disaster had already befallen him.
Dragon City has not been through war for a long time, and it was once the capital of the Murong clan. So, this place is relatively much more prosperous.
A small pub on the corner of the street was not open because it was snowstorm and the first day of the new year. In the wine shop, the shopkeeper is drinking alone with Xiao Er, if outsiders see this scene, I am afraid that they will be a little surprised. After all, the boss and Xiao Er, where can they be so close in many cases.
"I don't know how the things explained above are going?" The shopkeeper, who looked to be in his forties, drank all the wine in his glass at this time and said.
"It is estimated that there will be news soon, and the news that the other party got yesterday, even if it makes any decision, I am afraid that it will not be able to hear a little bit until the afternoon. Let's wait! At this time, Xiao Er has completely lost the nodding and hunching appearance in the past, if he is seen by an acquaintance, he is afraid that he will not be able to recognize it.
"In the afternoon, you go and inquire secretly. If you can inquire about this matter, then inquire about it, and if you can't inquire about it, then forget it. As explained above, first of all, it is important to protect ourselves, and unless the matter is urgent, we must not be exposed! The shopkeeper nodded and explained.
"Now that the road is closed by heavy snow, it is difficult to communicate from here to Jicheng. If the two sides are separated, it will be beneficial for us. I don't know if Jicheng is arranged! The two were silent for a while, and after drinking a few glasses alone, Xiao Er spoke again.
"We don't have to worry about this, we just need to take care of ourselves. In other places, we don't know what the situation is, but what we can think of, how can we not think of it above! Hearing this, the shopkeeper couldn't help glaring at him and reprimanded.
"Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing!" When Xiao Er saw his expression, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and hurriedly apologized.
When Li Xin and Murong Jun were celebrating Chinese New Year's Eve, at this time, in Youzhou Jizhou and other Yan countries, a lot of rumors began to appear.
Some people say that after Murong Jun, the lord of Yan, went to Longcheng, he was surrounded by the Hu tribe such as Fuyu Tiele in the north, and a group of people unfortunately died in battle. Some people say that after the heavy snow fell, Murong Ke, the king of Taiyuan who was following Murong Jun, suddenly launched an attack, killed Murong Jun, and established himself as the emperor in Longcheng.
At first glance, these news are very shocking, but not many people believe them. But another piece of news made many people, even rich aristocrats, start to be stupid~stupid~ to move.
It is said that Murong Jun went back to Longcheng this time to prepare to move the capital back to Longcheng and abandon Jicheng.
If this is really the case, then now many of the wealthy families in the Central Plains who make Yan Kingdom will have to give up their interests here and follow them to Dragon City.
In this way, it is natural that people will be panicked! After all, the place in Dragon City is even more bitter cold than Jicheng, and no one wants to go there!
And there are some other news mixed in with it, such as Murong Ping, Mu Yugen and other princes and ministers stationed in the south, all of whom have conspired to divide the territory and want to support the army and respect themselves.
These news were released, causing even more chaos in the entire Yan Kingdom! After all, people like Murong Ping and Mu Yugen have a lot of soldiers and horses under their command. Once they really rebel, the first ones to suffer will definitely be places like Jicheng.
Of course, these news were also released by people with intentions, and at this time, the connection between Jicheng and Dragon City was not smooth! As a result, the crown prince Murong Ye, the queen, Shangshu's right servant, and others who stayed in Jicheng also began to worry and secretly strengthened their vigilance. At the same time, he kept sending people to the Dragon City to contact.
In short, as soon as he entered the eleventh year of Yonghe, the entire Yan Kingdom became not very peaceful. Comparatively speaking, the land on the left side of the river is unusually stable.
On the first day of the new year, Huan Wen held a banquet in the mansion to invite his subordinates and generals. As a superior ~ person, he still understands the importance of having a good relationship with his subordinates, after eating and drinking, everyone dispersed, and only Xi Chao was stayed.
"A few years ago, Yao Jingguo went north from Xuyi, occupied many counties along the way, and is now stationed in Nanton County. Although this person surrendered to the imperial court, he later surrendered to Yan and was extremely disloyal. After the beginning of spring, I want to cut it down, what do you think? Huan Wen glanced at Xi Chao and said slowly.
Yao Xiang surrendered to Yan, it was a month after he sent troops to Guanzhong. This incident caused him a lot of trouble at the beginning, and almost ruined his plan to attack Guanzhong.
Fortunately, although things became a little tortuous later, they finally got a better result! Now that you've got your hands free, it's time to solve this problem.
"Yao Xiang is a wolf with ambitions, although he is quite talented, but he is not a person who lives under people. Whether it is to surrender to the imperial court or to descend to Yan, it is just a temporary plan for him. His subordinates heard that the reason why he suddenly went north this time was because Yin Chi, the assassin of Fu Qin and Prefecture, sent a letter to him, wanting to dedicate Hedong to him in order to return to his command. But what he didn't expect was that this matter was known to Li Hantang, and as a result, Li Hantang made the first move and eliminated Yin Chi. As a result, Yao Xiang had to stay in Nanton first, and he couldn't advance or retreat! Xi Chao thought carefully for a while before replying.
"Yes! Now, the rich land of Hedong has fallen into the hands of the Huashan army. The power in Li Hantang's hands is getting stronger and stronger, and with the benefit of the salt pond, it will inevitably become a climate if it takes time. However, during this period of time, he has no disrespect for the imperial court, and he is far away, but he can let it go first! Wait until Yao Xiang's problem is solved first, and then think about other things! Hearing Li Hantang's three words, Huan Wen's expression couldn't help but change slightly.
"The general's words are reasonable, the Yan State has many generals, and the lord is virtuous, which is the biggest threat to us. If he gets Yao Xiang as his internal response and moves south, I am afraid that the imperial court will face a great crisis. Although the strength of the Huashan Army is much stronger, it is still far behind compared to the Yan Kingdom. Moreover, it does not have a direct conflict with us, so it can be put aside. If Yao Xiang is solved, or even if Yan is solved, if you think about it, the name of the general will inevitably shock the world, and when the time comes, won't the princes of the other parties fall in the wind? For this, Xi Chao agreed very much, and even said. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Eastern Jin Dynasty Tang Wang's Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
