Chapter 230: Song Chong's Worries
Lei Moyang just took the lead just now because of anger, and after fighting with the three of them for twenty moves, he slowly calmed down, these three people were all elders of their own worship hall when they were in the Hidden Star Sect, and they knew their martial arts well. You may be able to remain undefeated with one against two, but one against three will definitely lose.
Just when he regretted it, he suddenly heard Zheng Lun's shout, so he used his internal strength to force the three of them back with one move, and jumped out of the battle circle.
"Today, for the sake of Princess Wan'er, I will let you go for the time being. In the future, you don't have to be alone, otherwise I will bump into you, and you will definitely taste all kinds of torture. Lei Moyang threatened viciously.
After Zheng Lun and the others left, Jiang Wan'er asked about what happened in the palace during this time, and Jiang Huanchu told everything he knew.
"The eldest brother can actually mobilize the forbidden army, is it true that the father has died?" Jiang Wan'er suddenly became sad, with Jiang Wushuang's domineering personality, unless he died, how could Jiang Huan Song dare to do this.
"In addition to my father, I'm worried that the third brother will also be poisoned by them." Jiang Huan Chu has been on the run for the past two days, and he hasn't bothered to think about Jiang Huanyan's affairs.
"I'll take someone back to Beijing now, and ask the eldest brother in person to see what happened to his father and third brother." Jiang Wan'er was still lucky, feeling that Jiang Huanyan had never participated in the battle for the storage position, and had made great achievements for Daqi, so Jiang Huan Song would not kill his younger brother.
"Nope." Jiang Huan Chu immediately stopped: "If you and Luosheng are not married, and now go back with great fanfare, the eldest brother will not embarrass you for the sake of his reputation." But now it's different, the Tianluo Sect is also a force that cannot be ignored in the mainland, and with the relationship between Luosheng and me, the eldest brother will definitely leave you in the palace, thus threatening Luosheng. ”
"So what do we do now? You can't ignore the third brother. Jiang Wan'er was a little anxious.
Jiang Huan Chu thought for a while and said, "I have asked someone to help inform General Tian, and the general will definitely return to Xiangyang after knowing about the palace." If his father has died, the eldest brother will definitely announce his father's death, and then ascend the throne as the crown prince. At the same time, in the name of filial piety, let me go back to Beijing for the funeral, if I don't return, it will be unfilial, and then he can justifiably convict me. ”
"Then you have to write a letter to tell General Tian Kangyou about the affairs in the palace, otherwise he is likely to fall into the hands of the eldest brother and hand over the military power of the 100,000 army." Jiang Wan'er quickly calmed down, and the first thing she thought of was how to keep Jiang Huanchu's military power.
Jiang Huan Chu nodded: "You reminded me right, I will write a letter, and you will help me send it through the channels of the Tianluo Sect." As long as General Tian and I still have military power, my eldest brother will not dare to attack us for the time being. ”
"In addition to your 200,000 troops, the third brother also has 25 major armies in Chudi, and when the time comes, you and General Zeng will fight back to Shangjing together, and no one under the eldest brother will be able to resist it." Jiang Wan'er proposed again.
Jiang Huanchu's face was worried: "I'm afraid that the twenty-five major armies of the third brother may not help me, if the eldest brother threatens General Zeng with the safety of the third brother, maybe he will return the military power to the eldest brother." ”
Jiang Wan'er thinks about it, the relationship between Zeng Dong and Jiang Huanyan is like the relationship between Jiang Huanchu and Hou Ying, if Jiang Huanchu is in trouble, Hou Ying has military power in his hands, he will definitely hand it over for him.
"If that's the case, it's not good, you're better, there are four cities of Changli, Pingliang, Jincheng and Kaifeng, but General Tian only has one Xiangyang City, and he really turned his face with the eldest brother, and the supply will be a problem. In addition, I am also worried about whether the eldest brother will join forces with Deng Yuanjue, once they join forces, then your situation will be even more dangerous. Jiang Wan'er also had a sad face.
Jiang Huan Chu smiled bitterly: "There is no doubt about this, I am sure that they will definitely join forces, even if the eldest brother does not look for Deng Yuanjue, Deng Yuanjue will find him." Deng Yuanjue was beaten by the third brother and retreated, and he was about to die, but he didn't expect the eldest brother to come out like this, and Deng Yuanjue came back to life. ”
"It's useless to worry now, let's go back to Rongcheng first and then make plans, although Lei Moyang has temporarily withdrawn, but this is still the eldest brother's sphere of influence, or it won't be long before Lei Moyang will bring more masters here, maybe there will be an army."
"It's okay, after returning to Rongcheng, you can arrange it for me, I won't go back to Kaifeng for the time being, I will go to Qin State to see Luosheng first, and discuss with him how to deal with the current situation." Jiang Huan Chu knew that now apart from Tian Wuji, the only one who could help him was this friend.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, General Tian suddenly turned around and returned to Xiangyang, could he have known that we had set up an ambush to wait for him?" Zhang Qiuping was surprised when he received the information.
Jiang Huan Song frowned: "This must be the fourth child's report, he escaped from Shangjing, it was really a mistake, did Lei Moyang catch him?" ”
"The Lei Hall Master also sent a message back just now to say that Wan'er suddenly appeared with a large number of Tianluo Sect masters and rescued the fourth child." Jiang Huan Qin replied cautiously, he didn't have any reliance on him now, and he dared to fight with Jiang Huan and Song again.
"Tianluo Sect? It seems that my brother-in-law is also planning to intervene, and his water army should not be underestimated. "Since Jiang Wan'er and Shi Luosheng got married, Jiang Huan Song has also studied the Tianluo Sect and knows their power overseas.
"The fourth and the general have fled, what are we going to do next? They still have a total of 200,000 troops at their disposal, should they send troops to recruit them? Jiang Huan Qin also wanted to continue to provoke the two sides to start a war, so that he would have a chance to get rid of Jiang Huan Song's control.
"Sending troops to fight? The third child is dead, who else in our Great Qi can beat the general and the fourth with soldiers? Jiang Huan Song was naturally clear about his careful thoughts.
"You can transfer General Sun Zhongmou Sun back from Bingzhou and let him lead his troops to Xiangyang. General Sun is a veteran of the battlefield, and he may not lose to the general. Jiang Huan Qin proposed.
"General Sun has other uses, I have my own people to deal with them, but before I can deal with them, there are still two people who have to deal with them first." Jiang Huan's eyes were cold.
Jiang Huan Qin was slightly stunned, and then reacted: "Are you talking about Song Chong and Xin Shouji?" ”
"Not bad." Jiang Huan Song nodded: "Now you can tell the world that your father has died, and you go and summon the ministers into the palace." ”
Jiang Huan Qin was just about to go out to issue an edict, but Jiang Huan Song stopped him again: "Second brother, I don't care what method you use, and I don't care if Gonggong Hong is dead or alive now, in short, I don't want to hear anything about my father's edict, can you do it for me?" ”
Jiang Wushuang's edict is a thorn in Jiang Huan Song's heart, he has been thinking about this matter these days, he can conclude that Gonggong Hong has never left Shangjing, or even left the palace, but he has never been able to find him, then there is only one possibility, that is, he was hidden by his second brother.
When Jiang Huan Qin heard this, he was shocked and scared, he knew that Jiang Huan Song had been doubting himself, but because there was no substantial evidence, he warned him.
"Big brother, don't worry, I will definitely find Gonggong Hong as soon as possible, and I will never let the edict appear." Jiang Huan Qin naturally couldn't admit it, this was a life-saving thing, as long as the edict was in his hands, Jiang Huan Song would not dare to kill himself.
The ministers received the news of Jiang Wushuang's death and rushed to the palace one after another. As soon as Xin Shouji entered the palace gate, he was pulled aside by Prime Minister Song Chong.
Xin Shouji felt strange and was about to ask, but Song Chong said first: "Da Sima, don't you think Your Majesty's death is a little strange?" ”
"Something is wrong? His Majesty is very old, and he has been bedridden since he suddenly fell in the court last time, and now even if he is ......, it is considered a long life among emperors. There are some evasive words, and it is inconvenient for Xin Shouji to say them.
Song Chong sighed: "Don't you know anything about what has happened in the city in the past few days?" ”
"You mean the prince using the forbidden army? What's this, Your Majesty is seriously ill, and the prince uses the forbidden army privately, although it is not in line with the etiquette, it is understandable. "Xin Shoujian is a military general, and he is not as sensitive to politics as Song Chong. It was precisely for this reason, coupled with his loyalty to the royal family, that Jiang Wushuang put him in the position of Great Sima.
"The four princes left as soon as they returned to Beijing, and General Tian also turned back to Xiangyang City on the way here, you should always know these two things, right?" Song Chong was also speechless for him.
Xin Shouji was awakened at this time: "You mean that the prince wants to use His Majesty's death to lure the generals into Beijing, so as to harm them?" ”
Song Chong nodded: "Not only them, but His Royal Highness has not come out since he entered the palace two days ago, and I am worried that he will also be poisoned by the prince." ”
"What, His Royal Highness is the god of war of my Great Qi, isn't he destroying the Great Wall by doing this? Let's go and ask him, if he really kills the Third Highness, I, Lao Xin, will never let him go. Xin Shouji, who was born in the military, was also impressed by Jiang Huanyan's performance on the battlefield of Yan and Chu.
Song Chong grabbed him and said, "I was just afraid that you would be impulsive, so I came to you in advance." Let me ask you, if the third prince is dead, and the crown prince falls out with the fourth prince and General Tian again, who will you choose to help? ”
"Of course, it's to help the general and the four princes." Xin Shoujian blurted out.
"Most of the officers and soldiers in the army are from the disciples of the generals and the four princes, if you go to help them again, then the Great Qi will be torn apart. Now that the state of Chu has just been restored, Deng Yuanjue is also eyeing Zhoukou, and the people of Yandi are not stable, if there are nobles of Yan State standing up at this time under the banner of reviving Yan State, then Yandi may also be split. Song Chong's expression was a little gloomy.
Xin Shouji didn't expect things to be so serious: "Does the prime minister mean to let me support the prince?" ”
"If Your Majesty does not make another edict before his death and appoint other princes, then the crown prince should succeed to the throne." Song Chong nodded.
