Volume 4 Chapter 106 Rebellion
Jiajing went out on patrol and went to Fengyang Mansion in the central capital and Tianfu in the south to worship his ancestors, and the Ming Dynasty Hall was suddenly in a hurry, and the officials who were named to accompany him were hurriedly preparing for the trip, and many officials who did not need to accompany him were also running around, pretending to be very positive.
After a few days, the day of departure finally arrived.
At midnight this morning, the sky only showed a glimmer of dawn, the east and west Chang'an Avenue outside the imperial city was already like a forest, the figures were longing, tens of thousands of forbidden soldiers and thousands of brocade guards almost stood up to the street, and there were countless officials mixed in the period, just like the stars in the sky, that scene, it was simply spectacular.
At this time, Jiajing's imperial driver had appeared outside Chengtian Gate on time, and Yan Song, Yang Cong, Gu Kexue and other accompanying important ministers of the imperial court had also been standing there and waiting for a long time.
Jiajing sat on the dragon chariot and seemed to be explaining something to Zhang Bangqi, a cabinet scholar who stayed behind, but his eyes glanced in the direction of the palace from time to time, looking a little nostalgic and a little reluctant.
Yang Cong stood not far away, quietly watching all this, the expression on his face did not seem to change in the slightest, but the curse of "vicious" in his heart had been opened.
Boy, take a few more looks, it's very likely that you won't be able to come back!
Well, if you want to be the emperor of the dynasty, these days, few people really dare to have such an idea.
Yang Cong was not the kind of "vicious" person originally, the problem, this guy Jiajing is really annoying, he has a strong temper, and he is self-righteous, gullible to a traitor like Yan Song, and he makes a good mess.
If this guy wasn't the emperor of the dynasty, Yang Congxing probably wouldn't want his life, because no matter how powerful the minister is, if he really does something wrong, he can still try his best to make up for it or correct it, Jiajing This guy did something wrong, but he has no way at all.
Who made Jiajing the emperor, even if you do something wrong, you can't talk about others.
The only way to keep him from making mistakes is to let him die!
Da Ming, he can't go on like this anymore, so he can only die!
Jiajing didn't know that Yang Cong wanted him to die, and after boarding the fire dragon car, he still beckoned Yang Cong to his side as always, asking this and that, looking very interested.
Yang Cong was responding respectfully on the surface, but he had been thinking about a question in his heart, how to break Lu Bing up at night?
In broad daylight, if the imperial tent is on fire, there is a chance that Jiajing will not have an accident, and it is generally impossible to camp and rest during the day, and everyone is basically in a hurry or carrying out a grand sacrifice.
Only at night, when the camp was set up, most of the people were asleep, and the lights were blind, could Jiajing be burned to death.
Question, Lu Bingke is responsible for protecting Jiajing's safety, how can he leave Jiajing's side?
This question is really a headache.
Fengyang Mansion in the central capital is about two thousand miles away from the capital, and at this time, the speed of the fire dragon car is fifty miles per hour, which means that the speed of one hundred miles per hour, it takes about twenty hours, and there are only twelve hours a day, if you don't stop all the way, then you need to catch up for two days and one night in a row.
Of course, Jiajing is not in a hurry, plus there is no electric light at this time, and it is not very safe to travel at night, so he set the itinerary for three days, and he will rush during the day every day, and it will be almost the same as six or seven hundred miles, and he will stop and rest at night.
However, during the three days, he did not get off the car, he just asked the forbidden army and the Jinyi guard to get off the car and surround the fire dragon car he was riding in, and he himself rested on the fire dragon car.
In the past three days and two nights, Yang Cong has no way at all, because the fire dragon car is basically an iron lump, and it is basically difficult to light it.
Even if he could light it, he didn't dare to light it, because he was responsible for building the dragon car, and if Jiajing was burned to death on the fire dragon car, he would definitely not be able to get out of it.
Finally, on the evening of the third day, the royal car arrived at Fengyang Mansion, and Jiajing also got out of the car and lived in the imperial tent, and the opportunity finally came!
This night, Yang Cong basically didn't sleep much, because he had been looking forward to Jiajing's imperial tent being on fire, and he was thinking about how to find Lu Bing as soon as possible after the imperial tent was on fire, and dragged him to prevent him from saving Jiajing.
As a result, that night, there was no movement in the entire camp, not to mention that the imperial tent was on fire, even the tent on the side of the accompanying officials was not on fire.
Yang Cong can be described as exhausted and extremely disappointed.
What to do?
This time, Jiajing will only rest in the imperial tent for three nights, one night in Fengyang Mansion, the central capital, and then worship the imperial mausoleum in the morning of the next day, that is, the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents, and then rush to the southern capital Shuntianfu in the afternoon, rest for one night, and then go to worship the filial piety tomb in the morning of the next day, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum, and then rush to Jinling City in the afternoon of the next day, rest for one night in the imperial city of Nanjing, and then return to Beijing.
That is to say, after this night, he only had two chances, to be precise, he only had one chance, because the Nanjing Imperial City was not so good, and only the next night, before worshipping Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum, he was also camped in the wilderness, he had a chance.
Time is pressing, and there will be no such shop in this village after this village, so do you just wait and miss this opportunity in vain?
Resigned to fate or against the odds?
After thinking about it again, he still took the opportunity of Jiajing to worship the imperial tomb, called the two personal guard masters into the tent, and confessed.
As for what these two masters are called, then don't mention it, he doesn't want people to know the names of these two people, and even, he doesn't want these two people to appear in everyone's sight again, after this night, these two people will disappear!
These two people were recruited by him from Quanzhou Mansion, and they have been following him for more than ten years, and there is definitely no problem with loyalty, and these two people have also done a lot of unsightly things for him, and he is also quite generous to the families of these two people.
It can be said that these two people are equivalent to the dead soldiers he cultivated, and they will not betray him when they die.
These two people also knew that Yang Cong mysteriously recruited them into the tent, and there must be something unsavvy to confess, so after entering the account, they stood in front of Yang Cong without saying a word, just waiting for Yang Cong's orders.
At this moment, he thought a lot, he thought of the disaster of the southern and northern captives, he thought of the corrupt officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and he thought of the common people who were killed or even taken captive by the Japanese and the Tartars.
All of this is a good thing you have done!
After pondering for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Tonight, before the child, the royal tent will catch fire, do you know? ”
This hasn't happened yet, of course the two don't know, Yang Cong's meaning is to tell them that tonight, if the imperial tent is not on fire when they arrive, they will have to find a way to set fire to the imperial tent!
This is a rebellion, these two people can be regarded as bold people, after hearing Yang Cong's words, they still couldn't help but change their faces slightly.
However, they still didn't say anything, just nodded solemnly.
Yang Cong stared at them for a while, and then said solemnly: "You don't have to do it, if you want to do it, it's best not to hurt anyone, and don't let people see it, after the matter is done, you will immediately take a fast boat to Dongfan, I will arrange a fast boat to wait for you in Jinling River, and I will secretly send your family to Dongfan." ”
The two just nodded firmly, still not speaking.
Yang Cong stared at them for a while before waving his hand, "Go ahead." ”
The two of them bowed their hands silently, and then left his tent without a word.
Looking at the backs of the two, Yang Cong couldn't help but feel nervous.
This is a rebellion, if Jiajing doesn't die, there will be a lot of trouble!
