Qin Song came out of the palace, although it was still early at this time, he was not in the mood to go to the Jinyi Guard Yamen, and went home directly with his head down. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

His wife Zhang Rui greeted him and asked when she saw him like this, "What's wrong?" What does this look like? ”

Qin Song sighed and said: "Hey, Your Majesty asked Guo Hongtao to set up a yamen to investigate the situation today, what is the name, the Ming Suppression of Anti-Thieves and the Behavior Committee of Occupying the Mountain as the King, referred to as the Town Committee, is very strange and awkward. Now Qin Song's frustration with this matter is even stronger than his incomprehension of the name.

However, although Zhang Rui also felt that this name was very strange, she didn't care about the name of a yamen, but immediately said nervously: "What's the matter?" Is Your Majesty not trusting you? ”

Qin Song said: "That's not it, Your Majesty still trusts me." It's just that the recent rebellion in Shandong, Jinyiwei has not played a role in both before and after the event, Your Majesty, hey, it is my poor management of Jinyiwei. ”

"And when Guo Hongtao was the commander of Jinyiwei, he managed Jinyiwei in an orderly manner, and at that time, Jinyiwei's power was much smaller than now, but the investigation situation was higher than now, and now Shandong is raging, and Hebei is again, so His Majesty asked Guo Hongtao to set up a yamen to investigate the news of anti-thieves."

Zhang Rui didn't pay attention to the sentence that Qin Song didn't say in the middle of what he said, but said with a sigh of relief: "It's good that Your Majesty continues to trust you, that's good." ”

However, she immediately said again: "Qin Song, you still proposed to Your Majesty not to be the commander of the Jinyi Guard anymore." There are not many successive commanders who have had a good end. ”

"Although the current Jinyiwei is different from when Emperor Taizu was in the past, I still don't feel at ease."

Qin Song said: "I don't like to be the commander of the Jinyi Guard, either!" It's too obvious, I prefer to be a person who hides behind the scenes, and it would be nice if Your Majesty let me be an unobtrusive person. "Qin Song really doesn't have much ambition for a career, but after the death of his eldest brother, he had to support his father's hopes.

"But Your Majesty handed over the Jinyi Guard to me to take care of, how can I refuse, how dare I refuse!"

Zhang Rui was not very satisfied with Qin Song's lack of enterprisingness, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the second half of Qin Song's words, and immediately knew that what he said didn't mean much. Yun Xi personally appointed Qin Song as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and it would be even more inappropriate if he resigned.

At this time, Qin Song had already changed his clothes and went to his father Qin Shoushan's house with Zhang Rui to talk.

Qin Shoushan actually didn't want his son to be the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and after listening to his son's words, he could only be speechless for a while, and finally sighed: "It would be nice if Your Majesty could let you be the military general of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, even if you are a big commander from other places, it will make people feel more comfortable than now." ”

==================================================

Before and after the curfew, in that place in the south of the capital, a person said: "Brother Wucheng, do you know why Your Majesty suddenly wants to conquer in person?" ”

A middle-aged voice sounded: "There is no conclusive evidence, but it is likely that a certain prince or local commander has rebelled again, so His Majesty wants to recruit in person." ”

"What!" Several such voices rang out, all full of surprise and, of course, implicit excitement.

A deep voice rang out and said, "What's the matter? ”

The person called Brother Wu Cheng said: "Last night, Your Majesty asked the guards to call Xu Huizu, Zhang Wen and others into the palace despite the curfew, and then when he went to court this morning, His Majesty was pale and his eyes were red, as if he hadn't slept all night, and then His Majesty called a few of us into the palace to tell us some things, and told us that he was going to recruit in person." ”

"I have already selected Zhu Xianyan, the son of King Qi, as the nominal commander, and after knowing that King Qi was coerced into rebellion, this is indeed a clever move, and His Majesty did not show any pro-conquest tone before, so if it is not a sudden deterioration of the situation, then why does Your Majesty need to pro-conquest!"

"And the situation has deteriorated suddenly, if it is a rebellion and any earth-shattering moves, it is unreasonable, the loss of Jinan is already known, even if Dongpingzhou, Yanzhou, Jining, Dezhou, Dongchangfu and other places are all lost, it should have been expected a long time ago, and it is impossible for His Majesty to make such a decision."

"If it is said that Cheng Wei suddenly defeated Kaifeng Mansion, it is impossible in terms of time, even if they quickly beat Kaifeng Mansion, it is impossible for the news to reach the capital now. And Kaifeng Mansion is strong, the first emperor once intended to move the capital to Kaifeng, so Kaifeng City is the largest city in the Central Plains, and the three guards of the Zhou Dynasty are well armed, and it is definitely not easy to fight. ”

"As for Cheng Rebellion and other moves, how can it not be that Your Majesty will decide to do it in person. Therefore, most of them are rebelled by princes or military generals. ”

A person said maliciously: "It can't be Cao Xing or King Zhou's rebellion." ”

Brother Wu Cheng said: "Then who knows! It's hard to say, maybe it's the people in Jianghuai Province who are doing the opposite! ”

Then everyone agreed with Brother Wu Cheng's analysis, and guessed which person might have rebelled, from the prince to the commander, from the commander to the commander, basically the people near Shandong were guessed over and over again.

There are also guesses about Zhu Di, the king of Yan, but no one connects Zhu Gaoxu's entry into the palace with this incident.

After all, instructing someone to assassinate the emperor was beyond the imagination of these people, and none of them thought that if Zhu Di rebelled, Zhu Gaoxu would tell him, which was not in line with their common sense. In addition, Zhu Gaoxu should not have known about Zhu Di's rebellion. Zhu Di's fief is far away from the capital, and he specially notified Zhu Gaoxu to visit? Not afraid of leaks?

Besides, even if Zhu Di notified Zhu Gaoxu, it was too late for Zhu Gaoxu to hide, why did he enter the palace! So no one is linking these two things together.

Everyone was guessing when a person suddenly said, "Could it be that there is a police at the border gate?" The Mongols or other Yi people have made a move, so Your Majesty is in a hurry to calm down the rebellion, and then lead troops north to deter the Hu people? ”

The other person probably thought for a moment and then said, "It's possible!" Your Majesty has always attached great importance to these matters. ”

At this time, Brother Wu Cheng said: "Let's not guess what's going on, and each of us will mobilize our own connections to find out the news." Today I can already be sure that Chen Xingshan and the others don't know. The nobles among the generals must know, but it's not easy for us to talk; It's also possible that Qi Tai will know and probe his tone. ”

"And Qin Song, the commander of the Jinyi Guard must know that Qin Song must know, let's see if we can get the news from the Jinyi Guard."
