In the Palace of the Green Dome, Rashid listened to the news that his wife had brought him from Mecca, a month before the arrival of this news, he had learned that Yahaya had been detained by the Don army, and in the presence of countless passionate generals and ministers, he was enraged, and he rebuked the humiliation inflicted on the Abbasids by the ancient eastern kingdom with unprecedented severity, and called on all the armies to prepare for a holy war, for which he sent his troops to the vicinity of Hamadan with 70,000 Syrian troops and 60,000 Egyptian troops loyal to him.

In the subsequent personnel transfers, he appointed Barry, the supreme commander of the Guards loyal to Yehya, as the governor of Sindh to raise money for the war in Tocharian and India, and appointed Yehya's eldest son Fadler as the acting vizier, with full responsibility for handling the affairs of the empire.

In order to rescue Yahaya, Rashid's voice was hoarse, his eyes were bloodshot, he wore Muhammad's cloak and prayed for Yehaya before Allah, all of this was carried out under the slogan of Rashid's non-jihad, which touched countless Yehaya's supporters, although there were also voices questioning Rashid's seizure of power, but this doubt had no market and was soon drowned in the wave of support for the caliphate.

After a month's arrangement, Rashid gave almost all administrative power to the acting vizier Fadler, and he ceded all the power in exchange for the command of the 100,000 guards in Baghdad.

At this moment, Rashid was pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, a deep humiliation and bitter hatred that made him unable to sit down, Rashid's wife's name was Zohaid, his cousin, she was also the leader of Baghdad fashion, and she had always been known as the two stars of Baghdad, one of these two stars was her, and the other was Rashid's other half-sister Oleyeh. But whether it is Zobaid or 'Aulaier, they are only stars around the moon, and the moon of Baghdad is Abasai.

In a gesture of impartiality, without any personal feelings, he recounted what she had seen in Mecca: "The little boy's name is Creek, and he looks exactly like Dzhelfar, especially his long neck, and no one can be mistaken. He called Abasai his mother, and I believe it, because he and Abasai have eyes carved out of the same mold, and I didn't see Abasai when I went, but I was told that she was afraid to meet me, and that the life in her womb was about to give birth, Your Majesty. This is what your wife saw with her own eyes, and if you still don't believe it, you can ask Oleer, who saw Abasai from afar. ”

After saying that, Zuo Baide glanced at Ole Ye next to her, who was tall and fit, and when she appeared in public, countless people were always fascinated by her fleshy body. L'Oleye's greatest achievement was the invention of a cable tie around the forehead, which is still popular all over the world. But Ole invented it to cover a scar on her forehead, and like her sister-in-law, who was annoyed by the misfortune of being a vassal of the moon, she saw that her sister-in-law had finished most of her sentence, and added what she thought was judgmental, "Yes, I saw her, like a she-goose, hiding in the darkness with a huge belly." ”

"That's it! Did you say enough was enough? Rashid interrupted both of them in exasperation. He slammed a punch into the wall. Although it was an excuse for the overthrow of the Shia Bermacian family that he had been waiting for, the betrayal of him by Abasai hit him deeply. Abasai actually bore two children to Djelfar.

Seeing the deep look of pain on her husband's face, a trace of intense jealousy arose in her heart. Her husband had never been so distressed for her, and she waited for Rashid to calm down a little, and then said, "I have ordered Abasai to be secretly escorted back to Baghdad, and I guess you will be able to see her and her two children in a few days." ”

"Enough!" Rashid couldn't hold back any longer, he pointed out the door, "You guys get me out." ”

The two women looked at each other, they were proud of the impending misfortune of Abasei, and when they had achieved their goal, they both retreated, and Rashid slammed the door shut, and fell heavily in his chair, and he broke a quill in his hand, and the shame in his heart was unbearable, and he roared viciously: "Dzerfar, you are so bold. ”

After a while. There was a knock on the door. The guard officer said outside the door, "Your Majesty." Sehail was out asking to see him. ”

In agony of deep thought, Rashid woke up suddenly. He suddenly realized that he had been entangled too much with Abasai. She's not important. Importantly, Djelfal. It's the Yahaya family. Zobald said she had brought Abasai back. Then Djelfal will probably know as well. Time is running out for do-it-yourself.

Rashid immediately sat up straight and ordered, "Order him to come in." ”

Sehail was Yehayadi's deputy. He is about 40 years old. But his political experience is very old. He has extensive experience and contacts in the Abbasid Empire's territorial administration. His youngest daughter, Bran, was betrothed to Rashid's second son, Maimun. Thus he became a confidant of Rashid. In the Rashid land plan. Sehail will be an extremely important part of this. Stabilize the situation for Rashid.

Moment. The door was pushed open. Sehail walked in briskly. He bowed deeply and said, "See His Majesty the Caliph." ”

"Dear Seheller. What good news have you brought me? Rashid asked him with a smile.

Saihail is known for his steady work and careful thinking, and he smiled slightly: "I have two pieces of news to tell Your Majesty, one is that there is news from Hamadan that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, Cui Yao, has arrived in Hamadan and will return to Baghdad in three days. ”

"Really? He's finally back. Rashid couldn't help laughing, since Ye Haya was detained by the Tang Dynasty, he knew that Cui Yao had completed his commission, and the Tang Emperor decided to cooperate with him, but Cui Yao's return still made him very happy, he must have brought a personal letter from the Tang Emperor, which makes people look forward to it!

"And what's that other thing?" Rashid held back the excitement in his heart and continued to ask.

Saihail's face was a little gloomy, and he said with a hint of disdain in his tone: "Another news is that Fadler is going to hold a grand dinner in his palace tomorrow night to celebrate his appointment as a vizier, and he has simply forgotten that his father is still in the hands of the Tang people, and I guess he doesn't want his father to return to Baghdad at all." ”

"What is Djelfar doing?" Rashid asked again quietly.

"Djelfar?" Sehail hesitated, "I heard. He seems to have gone to Mecca, and he just left this afternoon. ”

"It seems that he heard something." Rashid sneered lightly, and then his face turned grim, and he said to Saihail: "I tell you the truth, Yehaya's detention by the Tang Dynasty was a deal between me and the Tang Emperor, and it was all to restore the supremacy of the caliphate, do you understand?" ”

Saihail was stunned, and Yehaya was detained by the Tang Dynasty and turned out to be Rashid's hand. Who would have thought? At this moment, he immediately understood that Rashid was going to make a move against the Yehaya family, and he would play a very important role in it, Sehail deserved to be a seasoned old politician, he quickly set himself a position, took a deep breath, and asked Rashid: "What does Your Majesty need me to do." Please do not hesitate to ask. ”

Rashid looked at him and said coldly: "Your business is to succeed Fadler as the fourth vizier of the Abbasid Empire, and the appointment time is set for tomorrow." ”

On the highway leading from Baghdad to the south, a carriage was speeding down with hundreds of cavalry, stirring up billowing dust, and in the carriage Zhelfar stared out the window with a gloomy face, he had received a message yesterday. Rashid ordered Queen Zobaid to go to Mecca as well, and Dzhefar was suspicious that Rashid had heard something. He was very worried about what Abasai would do recklessly, especially now that the situation was delicate, and after thinking about it, he decided to go to Mecca himself and resettle him.

Since yesterday's departure, he has left Baghdad for more than 100 miles, and there are two routes to Mecca, one is by land, across the great desert. This is generally the way pilgrims walk. The other way is to get to Alataman and then take a boat to Jeddah port. Arriving in Mecca, the boat ride is certainly more comfortable than the overland route. Most merchants or aristocrats went to India or Mecca by boat.

There were not many pedestrians on the wide road, and not far away was the sparkling Tigris River, along which a dozen merchant ships were sailing, and Djelfal sat groggily in the carriage, and he slowly closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap

Suddenly, the carriage shook violently, almost knocking Jelfar to the ground, and he pulled the curtain and shouted, "What's the matter? ”

"Master, there is an army blocking the road ahead." The coachman trembled. Taken aback, Djelfar looked ahead and saw thousands of troops blocking his path.

"It's the Guards." One of his subordinates suddenly recognized the armor of this army, and at this time, Djelfar's heart seemed to fall into the abyss, and he found that not only the front, but also his front, back, left, and right, were surrounded on all sides.

A general of the Guards urged him to come and said, "On the orders of His Majesty the Caliph, take Dzhefar back to Baghdad, and I hope you can cooperate, otherwise you will all be executed." ”

"How dare you kill me?" Dzhelfar laughed loudly, "I don't dare to give you ten dares, go back and tell the caliph that the children of Abasai are mine, and I will go and bring them back now." ”

With that, Djelfar shouted, "Ignore them and rush over to me." ”

The carriage started, hundreds of cavalry shouted in unison, escorting Jelfal to rush forward, but the matter was not as simple as he thought, the officer saw that Jelfal did not listen to the order, he immediately turned around and ordered: "Pass Your Majesty's order, kill them all, and leave no one behind." ”

At the sound of an order, more than 6,000 cavalry rushed from all directions, like a rolling black wave, and instantly swallowed all of Dzhelfar and his guards.

The city of Baghdad was already in chaos, with brigades of soldiers taking control of the streets and monasteries, the inner and outer cities full of heavily armed guards, the people scrambling to flee back to their homes, the hostels were full of merchants, the monasteries were crowded with ordinary people who had come to take refuge, and the streets that had been bustling had become deserted, and the ground was full of overturned baskets and wooden basins, rolling in the cold wind.

The outer city is a deserted scene, but the inner city is like a cold sword and frost sword, the government palace is surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers, ten steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and the security is extremely strict. On the steps of the palace of government affairs, a group of officials stood behind the vizier Fadler at a loss, the sudden situation shocked them inwardly, Fadler looked gloomily at the dense soldiers in the square, he had vaguely guessed that this was Rashid's intention, but he was not afraid, Rashid could not find an excuse to punish their family.

The Guards kept pouring upwards, cold spears and tomahawks waving in front of the officials' eyes. The officials kept retreating, and suddenly, a large group of soldiers rushed out of the underground palace behind them, blocking all the officials' retreats at once, and one of the officials could not run, but was pierced through the back of the heart by a spear, and died on the spot, screaming and splashing blood finally angered Fadler. He waved his arms and shouted, "Are you crazy? This is the Imperial Palace, what are you going to do! ”

Fadler's shouting had no effect, and the soldiers still approached the steps, forcing Fadler and a group of officials into a very small space, when suddenly, a distant horn sounded in the distance, as if an order was given, and the soldiers slowed down. There was a moment of silence in front of the palace, and a group of cavalry drove out of the palace. Surrounded by Rashid, who was dressed in golden helmets and armor, the square suddenly erupted in a tsunami-like cheer, "Long live the caliph!" Long live His Majesty the Caliph! ”

Rashid's expression was solemn, hundreds of horses escorted him to the government palace, the army was like a chopping wave, parting to both sides, Rashid came to the bottom of the steps, he looked coldly at Fadler on the steps, and did not say a word. Fadler couldn't hold his breath first. He cried out: "Your Majesty, please ask what crime we have committed. Treat us like this! ”

With a wave of his hand, Rashid dodged a passage through the besieging soldiers. Sehail quietly left the steps from the passage with a few officials, and under the leadership of Sehair, more and more officials left the steps, and finally only Fadler was left, Rashid laughed coldly, his laughter grew louder and louder, and finally he burst into laughter, and suddenly, his laughter stopped, and he said to Fadler disdainfully: "Do you see it, and I am willing to die with you, but there is no one." ”

"Do you want me to die?" Fadler straightened his back and said, "Then you come up with the accusation, let me see if I can convince the people of the world." ”

"You say that Dzhelfar committed a crime against Princess Abasai, and made Princess Abasai hang herself unwilling to be humiliated, and you say, can this crime punish your family?"

Fadler's head buzzes! With a bang, what he was most worried about was finally released, he had already heard some rumors about his brother and Abasai, and he had also advised Dzhelfar not to play with fire, but he never expected Rashid to use this matter to make a fuss and completely eradicate their family, hateful! His father was not in Baghdad, otherwise he would not have dared to be so arrogant if he had given him a hundred dares, and Fadler hated himself in his heart, and in order to obtain unlimited power like his father, he watched Rashid change the generals of the Guards without interfering, which led to the disaster of today.

Knowing that the tide was turning, Fadler let out a long sigh and hung his arm weakly, and Rashid suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "Today's events have nothing to do with the officials, only Fadler will be held responsible." ”

"Long live the Caliph!" Excited cheers resounded in the sky, and the square turned into a sea of jubilation.

In late January of the seventh year of the reign of the Tang Dynasty, there was a coup d'état in the country, the Great Food Caliph Rashid took advantage of the opportunity of the Tang Dynasty to detain Yehaya and eradicated the Yehaya family in Baghdad for the crime of violating the princess, Fadler was forced to take poison and commit suicide, more than 100 people of the Yehaya family were killed, among which Dzhelfar was the worst, his head was hung on the highest bridge on the Tigris River, and his body was split into two and hung on the other two bridges, and the once powerful Bermai family was destroyed. Since then, there have been no more two suns in the sky of the Caliphate, and Rashid has taken over the imperial power.

At the beginning of February, a once-in-a-century light snow drifted over Baghdad, and Cui Yao, an envoy from the Tang Dynasty, finally arrived in Baghdad, and he brought a letter from the Tang Emperor, in which Zhang Huan warmly invited Rashid to meet in Shiguo Tuozhi City in June of the eighth year of Dazhi, and Rashid gladly agreed, and sent Prince Agush as his envoy to the Tang Dynasty to discuss the meeting of the two heads of state.

(The dispute between Rashid and Yehaya's family in history is real, but Lao Gao advanced it a few years ago, these chapters may be a little dull, but this must be written, please understand, Lao Gao is finishing step by step according to his own ideas)
