Suo Suo Juxiu is different from the guest general Luo Yao, and his family is also in Chang'an City, of course, he goes to Shangshutai to work every day, occasionally inspects the city defense, and then returns home to share the joy of family with his wife and children. However, since the news that Pei Gai had annexed a group of soldiers and horses of Liyun, Suo Juxiu easily did not dare to go home, and stayed in Shangshutai almost every day, which made Liang Fen anxious.

Shangshutai is actually the old name, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty changed its name to Shangshu Province, but the big guys are still used to calling it "Taiwan" Province in the forbidden place, which is easy to cause misunderstanding.

The Jin system succeeded the Han and Wei, and the general political affairs of the Shangshu were the general affairs, and the middle books and subordinates assisted and checked and balanced. However, there is a serious shortage of officials in the small court of Chang'an today, and some of them are scattered in all parties, such as under Sima Rui, and it is impossible for the three provinces to coexist under Sima Bao. Zhongshu Province was first emptied, and then Menxia Province, and only a few empty servants were left to support the façade.

For example, Pei Gai is an empty servant, and in theory, he should be responsible for the affairs of his subordinates and participate in the government affairs, but in fact, he is not in Chang'an City at all. In addition, there is Liang Jun in the waiter, who is just a standby; Song Chang, who served in the middle of the service, stayed in Shangshu Province all day to assist Suo in the office.

Shangshu Provincial Head Shangshu Ling is vacant, and theoretically the highest person in charge is Zuo Servant Shooting and Recording Shangshu Shisuo; followed by the right servant, Xun Song let it, but because he didn't follow the rope on the wrong road, he simply called himself sick and asked for leave for three days; The third is Liang Wei, who often serves as a casual horseman, that is, the elder brother of Hongnong Taishou Liang Su.

Shangshu should have had six people, and only three were actually appointed by Cao Zhi, Dianzhong, Wubing, Tian Cao, Duzhi and Zuomin: Hua Heng was the Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, Liang Yun was the Shangshu of the Palace, and Song Zhe was the Shangshu of Duzhi.

Song Zheqian abandoned Huayin, fled to Chang'an, and was dismissed and imprisoned, but was soon pardoned and appointed to the council of Shangshu Province.

The three Shangshu took turns on duty. Recently, because Suo Juxiu felt that the surrounding air was a little dignified, Taichung was unstable, so he stepped in sideways. He didn't worry about Hua Heng, and he didn't worry that Liang Yun was Liang Fen's nephew, and the surname Liang of the Wu family was born only in favor of Song Zhe, because Song Zhe didn't know how much money he sent to him that day in order to avoid crimes, and how many loyalty oaths he made. Therefore, only when Song Zhe is on duty, Suo will occasionally return.

Song Chang and Song Zhe both came from the Jingzhao Song family, and they were after Song Hong, the great Sikong in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Whether it is Wushi Liang or Longxi Li, they have nothing to do with the Song family, and it is difficult to win them over. Therefore, Li Rong pinned his hopes on Liang Yun at the beginning, hoping that he could secretly draft an edict, and then Xun Song used the seal to remove Suo, but unfortunately Suo Juxiu saw it too firmly and there was no gap at all.

He had already persuaded his younger brother Li Yi, and Wang Gong also said that Luo Yao had gone anyway. But the question, whether Luo Yao or Li Yi, both said that they would be willing to do it until they saw the edict, so how to get this book?

Since the three provinces have their own Shangshu, today's books are drafted by Shangshu, and then left and right servants shoot or record Shangshu and Pingshang Shushi to be printed in order to have legal effect. Theoretically, it has to be approved by the Son of Heaven, saying: "It can be made." "It's just that Sima Ye is still young and hangs the arch, and basically doesn't take care of things, so unless the relevant court is in charge, this step can be saved, even if it is not saved, it is useless for the son of Guangtianzi to "make it".

For this reason, Li Rong couldn't help but be anxious, he went to ask Liang Fen for a plan, but Liang Fen said: "I don't know what Qing said?" I am a good believer, and I can do it myself, so I don't need to ask me. "Li Rong had no choice but to go to Li Yi again and ask him, do you have to see the edict before you are willing to act?" Qing doesn't need to worry, with Situ Gong here, he will not make Qing have no end in the future. If this matter is successful, the general can do it, and the minister can do it; If this opportunity is missed, when Pei Gong waives his army into Beijing, I am afraid that we will all be martyred for Suo. ”

Li Yi shook his head again and again, saying that the edict is indispensable, otherwise it would be inconvenient for me to mobilize soldiers, right? Then he asked: "Brother asked the Son of Heaven to write a few words, which is also an edict, why is it difficult?" Li Rong smiled bitterly: "If it is not drafted by Shangshu, the order and the servant will be sealed, that is, it will not be systematized, even if the Son of Heaven writes it himself, it will not be counted." ”

Li Yi squeezed his eyes suspiciously: "The words of the Son of Heaven, how can you not count?" Isn't the Son of Heaven as great as Shangshu? ”

Li Rongzheng wanted to explain the imperial court system to him in detail, but before he could speak, he was suddenly stunned...... He remembered the past, how did Sima Liang, the king of Runan, die? Sima Wei, the king of Chu, pretended to be an edict and directly sent troops to kill him, how did the soldiers know whether the edict was true or false?

So he smiled: "I know, I should ask for an edict for the emperor." But I don't know when if there is an edict, when can it be launched? ”

Li Yi replied: "Today, the four of us are on duty in the palace in turn, if I get the edict on the same day as Luo Yao, I can send it urgently." Then he handed over the schedule for the last month to Li Rong. Li Rong took a closer look, no, the two of you have not been next to each other all the time, how is this good? It seems that it will have to be done in the long run......

Before the afternoon of the twenty-third day of May of this year, Situ Liangfen secretly summoned Li Rong to come and said to him: "As far as the prince of Shicai is concerned, Pei Wenyue has led his troops into the 10,000 years and expelled Ji Zhongke. ”

Li Rong was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "I haven't gotten relevant news before, why did Koji Gong lose so quickly?" ”

Liang Fen smiled bitterly: "It is said that Pei Wenyue led his troops to the south and arrived at the city of Wannian, please meet with Koji Zhongke, but Koji was afraid of its momentum, and did not dare to go out of the city to attend the meeting, nor did he dare to open the door to greet him, but he led his family and troops to abandon the city and flee to the west of the city that night, and went to the king of Nanyang......"

Li Rongxin said that it was really a waste of firewood! He thought about it for a while, and then asked Liang Fen: "It's a pity, Pei Gong failed to give birth to Gong Koji, so I don't know why he didn't block the road and let him escape?" ”

Liang Fen sneered: "I'm afraid it's not negligence, but something else." Koji Zhongkeben was incapacitated, not only did he stop his chariot and ride, and lost his army, so he went to the king of Nanyang, what did it become? "If it's a suo, you can't let him escape easily" If you capture Koji, life and death are hard to decide; And if you indulge it, when Pei Wenyue is in power, you can send troops to pursue it, and those who dare to hide will be cut off one by one! ”

Li Rong couldn't help but shiver slightly, and said in his heart that Pei should be ruthless, and he planned really far...... I will not allow failure in my attempt to carry out a coup d'état this time, otherwise, even if I am spared, Pei will not spare me...... No, it should be said that Liang Situ will not be spared......

I heard Liang Fen ask: "What He Qing said the day before yesterday, I don't know how the plan is?" The letter of 10,000 years is difficult to hide for a long time, I am afraid that early tomorrow morning, Suo Juxiu will get the news...... "You can hurry up, once Suo hears about this, his vigilance will definitely be stronger, and it will be even more difficult for you to start!"

Li Rong pondered for a while, and finally gritted his teeth: "I can only hope for tonight, if I miss it, I'm afraid there will be no chance!" ”

Shangshu Taizhong, Huaheng was on duty on this day, so he refused to return, and he would definitely sleep in the province. According to the arrangement, it was Luo Yao and another governor who guarded the small city, and Li Yi led his troops to guard the city. It can be said that there is no east wind tonight, and the fireship is also inadequate, and it is quite difficult to launch a coup d'état, but Li Rong is worried that this is probably the last chance, if he does not take a fight, he will definitely fall short and maybe it will drag on for a long time, either the possibility of leakage increases, or Pei is impatient and will do it himself......

Although it was originally planned for Pei to do it himself, the situation has changed after all. It's like if you don't go up, once Liang Fen says "This plan is very good, you can do it", can you still allow yourself to shrink back?

Suo was on duty in Shangshutai, standing high on the top, looking at Cao Zhushangshu and Shang Shulang below, and the left and right Cheng were busy going back and forth, all of them showed an extremely loyal and diligent attitude. In fact, there are not so many official affairs to deal with at all, the military and government in Chang'an City have their own president, and the scholars rarely interfere, and the finances are mostly for the military, and they don't do the business of the three scholars, so there is no degree to support the scholars, and there is a little civil left, in fact, two Lang officials can do it.

It's just that the chief is above, who dares to doze off idlely?

In fact, the scholars are also very depressed, I don't know what's going on lately, Suo Gong sees that Tian'er is on duty, and he stays overnight, and he includes us under your nose all the time, so we don't dare to be lazy if we want to.

finally stayed up until the end of work, and everyone resigned one after another, leaving only Shang Shu Huaheng, Shang Shulang Xinbin and Zuo Cheng Zang Zhen on duty. Suo was about to ask the kitchen to buy a meal, when he suddenly saw Li Yi striding in. He asked, "Why don't you patrol the city today, but come into the province?" Li Yi knelt on one knee and arched his hand upward: "Someone is rebelling!" ”

Suo and Hua Heng next to him were all taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Who rebelled?!" ”

Li Yi replied: "The minister inspected the city today, and saw a person in a trance, and entered the Situ Mansion through the side door. So he waited in secret, and when he came out, he secretly took it down......"

"Who is it?"

Li Yi replied: "This person's surname is Wang Minggong, he was originally the master of Pei Gong's curtain, and when he entered the city with Pei Gong a few years ago, the minister had seen a ...... from afar."

Suo felt a chill surging up from his heart, and couldn't help frowning and asking: "Since Pei Wenyue is the main book, why did he sneak into Chang'an secretly, what are his plans?" ”

"The minister has been tortured and plundered, Wang Gong admitted that he secretly infiltrated Chang'an, contacted the party henchmen, and instigated Situ Gong to ask Shangshu to draft an edict to remove Ming Gong and make Pei Gong return to power!" As Li Yi spoke, he presented a piece of the plate with both hands: "This is the list of traitors confessed by Wang Gong, Situ Gong is listed at the top, and the names under him, the ministers have little reading, they can't know everything, and they don't dare to arrest them, so they hurriedly come to report to Ming Gong that they know." ”

Suo took the plate and took a look, only to see a long list of names densely written on it, first Situ Liangfen, followed by the right servant Xun Song, Liang Jun in the waiter, Shangshu Liang Yun, Liang Wei and Hua Ji in the scattered cavalry...... Finally, Pei Gai's brother Pei Tong, and the names of his two cronies are also impressive!

"Please make it clear that the people on the plate should be arrested?"

Suo immediately slapped the table: "Since he ......" but then frowned, trying his best to calm himself down, "Slowly, I am only afraid of fraud, this is to mess with Chang'an." "Others are just right, Situ Liangfen can't move easily...... There is also Liang Wei, who is his nephew, how can he be the same as Pei Cai? Even if he is of the same clan as Liang Fen, he is the same villager as Pei Fen...... As for his two cronies and generals, if they take it wrongly, I am afraid that they will mess up the morale of the army and damage their strength......

At this time, Hua Heng had already come over to care about it, and he didn't dare to care about etiquette and rank anymore, so he glanced at the plate, and his face instantly turned pale. Listening to Suo sneered: "I'm afraid this Wang Gong is here for Pei to do death." ”

Hua Heng nodded and arched his hand: "What Suo Gong has seen is very much, and you can't believe it rashly at this time, which makes people's hearts disordered. Then he turned his head and asked Li Yi, "Where is Wang Gong?" can be escorted to ask Suo Gong to interrogate him personally. ”

Li Yi hurriedly said: "The minister secretly detains Wang Gong, and he does not dare to detain him to the Duke of Ming, because he is afraid that there are still comrades in the palace ban, and once the news is leaked, I am afraid that they will take risks." Why don't Ming Gong go with his ministers and interrogate Wang Gong. ”

Suo nodded, then wanted to get up and stand up, and said to Hua Heng in his mouth: "Forbidden affairs, one will be commissioned." But then he caught a glimpse of Hua Heng's face out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why is Jing so panicked?" ”

Hua Heng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he reacted, hurriedly took half a step back, and bowed down on his knees: "Suo Gong has to suspect me?" Hengshi did not participate in the conspiracy, let alone met Wang Gongqi. It's just because of the haste that things are boiling, and they can't sit still. ”

Suo stared at Hua Heng's expression, his face became more and more solemn, and finally shook his head and instructed Li Yi: "It's better to send that Wang Gong to the province......
