"These insatiable scum should all be killed!"

"The king is angry, the king's family suddenly happened without warning, the situation is still unclear, at this time rashly conclude that the rebellion is easy to change the catastrophe, and please be cautious."

Gao Xun persuaded, and the prince stepped forward and said:

"Father, the sons and daughters think that the king's family is a place to gather wealth, and there may be someone who rebels, but many businessmen and heroes gather to rebel is unthinkable, and they should be cautious."

"Humph!" King Xian snorted angrily, looked at Bailiyan and said, "Marquis Yongxing, tell you all what you said to the widow last night. ”

"No."

Bai Liyan told the story of what happened to the king's family in detail, and if he wanted to say that the rebellion was caused by the search and seizure of good horses in the city, Bai Liyan himself did not believe it.

Not to mention how long-term and meticulous the rebellion is, even if there are internal ghosts in the imperial court, the intelligence agencies of Sima Mansion should not know anything about it, and the secret agents of King Xian cannot all be blind, not to mention the frequent activities of the royal guests, although the royal family is not the center of gravity, but since it is a rebellion, it is impossible to have no intelligence warnings.

It can only be said that the royal family did hide dirt, but it was not to rebel, but there were other attempts, but unfortunately because the five horses were stolen and attracted Baili Yan and were exposed.

"The matter is roughly like this, because the case occurred and the official office, such a bold and reckless act is not only a contempt for the national law and discipline, but also someone colludes with internal and external troubles in the city, so Ben Hou is serious about law and discipline, and asks Qiu Ruipu, Liao Ping, and Huang Che to assist Ben Hou in arresting horse thieves, but he does not want to pull out more than 2,200 war horses of unknown origin from the city, and the same number of inferior horses, this matter is not simple."

Baili Yan said eloquently, Zhao Xun took over and said:

"I think that back then, the cavalry of my Xianguo were all inferior horses, and when they were embarrassed, they even needed to borrow horses from Liang State. Now that the rich can ride a fine war horse, it seems that the national strength is indeed not what it used to be. Now the change of the king's family is caused by the horse, and the reason is intriguing, and the king should investigate it thoroughly. ”

"What Zhao Qing discussed is very much in line with the widow's intentions, so who should go to the king's family to investigate this matter thoroughly?"

"Let's go."

Baili Yan said, the prince answered:

"Erchen thinks it's inappropriate."

King Xian asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Back to my father, this matter started because of the Marquis of Yongxing, and it should be avoided suspicion. The ministers suggested that the foreign court or the state administration should send personnel to conduct a thorough investigation in order to set the record straight. ”

"No!" King Xian categorically refused, and then looked at Marquis Lu and Marquis Xuanting: "Xue Qing, this matter is handed over to Aiqing for thorough investigation, what do you think." ”

"Commandment."

The prince is the important town of the Marquis of Lu and the Marquis of Xuanting, the distribution center of Yongxing City's foreign trade and release, the right-hand man of the King of Xian, the largest economic hub of the treasury, and the cornucopia of the funds of the Inner Mansion of the King of Xian.

It is obviously not appropriate to let Bai Liyan continue to take over, and no one in the cabinet can handle this matter, Xuanting Hou Qiaolian is good at financial management but combs through tough methods, so this matter can only be handled by Yan Yao Xue Chong, and it is reasonable for both public and private.

And at this moment, Bai Liyan felt more and more intriguing about the prince's motives. It is said that the prince should not have much to do with the matter of the prince's dependents, and even if there is, it is also his patronage of the nobles who are doing business in the prince's family, and now all the forces are affected by the prince's dependents, and they should be used as important ministers to calm down the stop loss. Therefore, it is inevitable for the cabinet to send senior members, but the crown prince wants to let the foreign court, which is tantamount to exposing the scars and making the matter bigger.

The crown prince is the future monarch, Xihuan has been trained for so many years, Xihuan also has an industry in the royal family, the prince should know the severity, but no one can benefit from exposing everyone's scars like this. As long as the nature of the royal family is not a deliberate rebellion, the result can only be that the crown prince himself stays out of the center of the storm, and at most some of the powerful people who are dependent on him because of Xihuan will be damaged.

Thinking of the depths, Bai Liyan began to dare not continue to look down on this prince who was mediocre and inactive all day long.

After Xue Chong was ordered to leave the palace, King Xian continued:

"Zhao Qing, immediately order the defenders of all counties and the town armies in various places to strengthen their vigilance and strictly prevent mutiny and rebellion. After a moment's ......pause, King Xian hesitated for a moment and then said, "I ordered the Zhoukong Department to closely check all the ferries of the Yongxing River and the key passes leading to the capital until the rebellion of the king's family subsided. ”

"No!"

"In addition, with the long history of Gao Xun, he drafted a will, and ordered the feudal lords of each county to come and go to and from the tomb, but those who delay without reason will be abolished and dismissed as commoners."

"Your Ministers obey."

"Now, each performing his duties, waiting for Lu Hou to thoroughly investigate the details, they are all dispersed."

"No......"

Everyone spoke in unison, and King Xian, accompanied by Jiang Hao, left the state political prison. On the way, King Xian questioned Jiang Hao:

"Didn't there be any sign before the incident?"

"The minister deserves to die, and the minister only got the Yongxing Hou yesterday after losing five horses, and searched the city vigorously, and he didn't know that the Yongxing Hou had suspected that someone was plotting against him. Can...... I really didn't expect the East Window incident to happen last night, and I really didn't expect it. ”

"Then before that, there were no signs or clues?"

"The king's family is mixed, rich businessmen and celebrities gather in the office, it is so close to the Lingling, who can rebel here, there is really no sign in advance."

Jiang Hao is actually quite innocent, he laundered money for King Xian in the royal family, so naturally he has to keep an eye on it, this incident with the royal family is really not a deliberate rebellion, everything is an accident.

King Xian looked at Jiang Hao with a scrutinizing gaze, and said in a deep voice:

"How's it going to be done with what you've done?"

"It's still ongoing, and I will redouble my efforts in the future."

"Remember, act discreetly and don't show your feet. Xihuan's hand stretched too long, and the widow became more and more uneasy. also let your nephew keep an eye on it, the widow can count on the military battalion after a hundred years. ”

"Yes, yes, I understand." Jiang Hao made a promise, and his forehead was already sweating profusely.

At this time, the sky was bright, the voices of the state supervisors were noisy, some prescient civil and military officials rushed to the palace to observe the wind direction first, and some were still asleep at home at this time.

Whether the royal family was a rebellion or a popular uprising was still uncertain, only one after another government decrees continued to be issued from the state government supervisor and sent to all parts of the country, Bai Liyan hurried back to the Hou Mansion with the orders issued to Zhou Kong.

"Hefu" is a two-petal military talisman, the monarch holds half of it, and the general of the Tun army holds the other half, and the two petals are integrated to immediately transfer troops. Previously, all countries had such conformities, and the forms were varied, but the number was small, because the processing methods were backward, and the accuracy was a problem, so the output was not very large, and a single military talisman was still the main means of troop transfer.

Xianguo does not have this problem, not only can be mass-produced, the shape has undergone earth-shaking changes, the simple integration of the two halves can not completely eliminate the manual imitation of other forces, so the combination has done the anti-counterfeiting department, from the technical level to completely eliminate the imitation of other countries.

Because of Wei Qi, the news of the prince's family had spread in the mansion, and Jiang Rong summoned all the ladies to ask Wei Qi about the roots, and then let him go. As soon as Baili Yan entered the mansion with his front feet, all the women swarmed up like headless flies.

"What is the situation in the palace, I heard that some soldiers and horses have gone out of the city through the west gate."

Jiang Rong said quickly, and Lord Qiao also said:

"Our royal family has a big business, and if we really fight, we will lose hundreds of thousands."

What Lord Qiao said is actually not quite right, Bailiyan actually doesn't have many stores and assets in Wang Yuan, they are all stationed in Wang Yuan's Waizhuang shopkeeper, responsible for business negotiation and supply, there is no simple façade, and the real business in Wang Family is Xuanting Hou's father and son and Princess Lan Yuan.

A group of girls chattered around, blocking Bailiyan speechless:

"It's all right, it's all right, the sky hasn't fallen yet. Come here. Baili Yan summoned Zhou Kong and handed over half of the conformity and the order to him: "The king has an order, transfer your town army to strictly inspect the Yongxing River ferry and all the key passes leading to the Lingling, which will take effect immediately." ”

When Zhou Kong heard the difference, he was busy asking people to get the other half, and then said:

"Is the king really reversed?"

"No, the situation is not clear. The king was frightened by the rebellion, and it was better to be prepared. Remember, send the scout scouts to Jiekang Cang first, in case someone cuts off the back road of Chenling. ”

"Then why not block the road for martial law."

"No, it's not 20 years ago, half of the country's financial and tax capitals and counties, and 70% of the capitals are Lingling, Wang's family, Ruitian, and Yongxing, and martial law is bound to cause serious consequences. Go quickly, when you arrive in Yongxing, first tell Zong Botai, Zhao Anling, Su Hong, Jiang Jie, and Lu Zhao about the situation, and then send troops. ”

"Understood."

Although martial law and curfews have an immediate effect, the superimposed effect of political and economic turmoil brought about by martial law in the capital and economic centers is not a relationship between one plus one equals two, but one plus one is greater than two or even increases geometrically.

Just as the king's dependents could not be severely punished, the king's dependents collapsed, and the direct financial losses of the Xianguo State exceeded 10%, and the indirect losses caused by this were more than the direct losses, and the Xianguo could not afford such huge losses.

The benefits of the concentration of economic centers are obvious, concentrating resources to do big things, and driving regional development from points and areas, and the western county of the capital county can take the lead in becoming rich and strong, which is also due to the radiation of the economic circle of the eastern county of the capital county.

Similarly, the disadvantage of resource concentration is this, too concentrated resources are easy to tie hands and feet, dare not make a big move, Xihuan is also to see the particularity of the king's family, and dare to hide dirt and dirt with it.

Explain clearly to Zhou Kong, Bailiyan said to Jiang Rong again:

"Rong'er, Guangxin, can you send someone back?"

"No, the situation is unknown, how can I rush to send someone back."

"Well, that's good. This matter is not a big deal, don't make a fuss and invite unnecessary trouble. ”

"Then how is the king going to deal with this matter, will he go on a killing spree?"

"It depends on the nature, I always find it strange, not like someone planning a rebellion."

At this time, the lord of Qiao said:

"I don't think so. I heard my brother say that there is a miasma of smoke in this royal city, and there are all kinds of things. Many of them are idle and have nothing to do, and they are all fleeing from other vassal states, maybe they are tired of living. ”

At this time, everyone complicated the "rebellion" of the royal family, and what Lord Qiao said was actually not wrong at all, the "rebellion" of the royal family was an accident.
