Chapter 1096 decided to do it
After four years of infiltration, the imperial court has planted a lot of eyeliner in Zhejiang, Zhejiang is not as monolithic as it was at the beginning, after King Lu quietly returned to Zhejiang, he did not show up directly, but temporarily hid in Xiao Qihui's house.
King Lu was in Xiao Qihui's mansion, while learning about the situation in Zhejiang from the beginning, he secretly made an appointment with the old ministry to prepare a planning notice.
At the beginning of July, King Lu made many preparations through contact, and as soon as King Tang made a move, he was ready to raise troops at any time.
In Xiao Qihui's mansion, King Lu and his confidant Wang Yi and others, when they heard the news that Xiao Qihui brought back, Zhu Cihuan had already agreed to cooperate with them, but they felt that the big thing was half done, and everyone was a little excited in their hearts, and their faces looked impatient.
"Your Highness, everything is ready now, when will we start, everyone must have a bottom in their hearts!" Wang Yi, who was sitting on the side, opened his mouth and asked, his situation was worse than Jin Shenghuan, and he had not been promoted for four years.
As soon as these words came out, Feng Jing, Ruan Jun and others in the hall all looked to King Lu that this was also the issue they were most concerned about. For a while, they were running to make contact, just for this day, and everyone couldn't help but prick up their ears.
King Lu looked at everyone and pondered for a while, but then said: "Lonely has been away from Zhejiang for four years, and now it can't be compared with back then!" And in this matter, the Tang Dynasty must first raise troops to appease, and then we can act. β
"His Royal Highness's prestige is in the land of Sanwu, and the hearts of the people in Zhejiang are in the king!" Ruan Jun immediately patted his chest and said, "As long as His Highness raises his arms and exhales, it will inevitably be a crowd of responders." Wu Yue's 100,000 people are willing to die for His Highness! β
"Your Highness, aren't the ministers forbearance for four years just for today?" Wang Yi hurriedly said, "Doesn't Your Highness believe us?" β
Seeing the reaction of the generals, King Lu nodded secretly in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "You are all Lone's henchmen, Lone naturally trusts you, but there are only a few loyal people like you after all, Lone has not been in Zhejiang for four years, and there are so many officials in Zhejiang, it is inevitable that there are no people who have taken refuge in the imperial court." β
King Lu said the truth, after Wang Yan recruited King Lu into Nanjing, he continued to use the name of the central government to infiltrate Zhejiang, four years have passed, Zhejiang officialdom, people's hearts have changed somewhat, just like the Tang King faction, Su Guansheng and others returned to the line of the court's literary fight, and in the Lu King faction, Zhang Huangyan and others basically no longer support King Lu to seize the throne.
Several people listened to King Lu's words, and their arrogance was suppressed a little, Xiao Qihui nodded, and echoed: "Yes, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, we really need to be careful." As he spoke, his voice changed, "But these days, the ministers have contacted all the big and small figures in Zhejiang, including several sea merchants in Ningbo, we have vaguely talked about it, and they all expressed their support for His Highness!" β
Saying that, Xiao Qihui paused for a moment, looked at King Lu, and said: "If Your Highness is still not at ease and worried about the wrongdoings of these people, then it is better to gather these people and test them, and don't want them all to follow us, as long as it doesn't hurt our big thing!" β
King Lu pondered, Wang Yi saw this, looked at Xiao Qihui, "How to tempt?" β
Xiao Qihui laughed, "Refer to the deer as a horse!" β
"Great idea!" Everyone knows this allusion, and Ruan Jun's eyes lit up immediately when he heard it.
Wang Yi frowned, they supported King Lu, it was to kill the traitor Wang Yan, defend the emperor's foundation, uphold the will of heaven, it was a fair and righteous thing, and this refers to the deer as a horse, but it was done by the treacherous Zhao Gao, after Wang Yi heard it, he immediately felt a little disliked, and felt that Xiao Qihui was such a person who had voted for the Qing Dynasty, and his idea was not the right way.
"Pointing to the deer as a horse, it was Zhao Gao in front of Qin II, forcing the minister to express his position, and letting the minister cut himself off from Qin II, so that the minister completely offended the second and could only follow him." Wang Yi opened his mouth and said: "This is not the right way, besides, Wang Yan is in Huguang right now, and there is no opponent, how can he refer to the deer as a horse?" β
King Lu originally moved in his heart, listened to Wang Yi's words, but calmed down, yes, even if he refers to the deer as a horse, he needs an opponent!
Xiao Qihui naturally thought of this a long time ago, and he continued to laugh and said: "Zhejiang Patrol Imperial Shi Xie Kuang is a protΓ©gΓ© of Wang Yan's uncle, and he followed Wang Yan very early. Not long ago, the military system of the imperial court was reformed, and the establishment of Houyong Town was canceled and incorporated into other town armies, he was transferred back to civilian work, and was placed in Zhejiang by the imperial court to monitor the officialdom of Zhejiang. β
Xie Kuang is the person who was inserted into the Zhejiang officialdom by the Nanjing court, if he comes to such a play in front of him, then anyone who echoes King Lu will be looked at by him, which is equivalent to self-isolation from the court, and he can only follow King Lu to the dark and help King Lu seize power, so as not to be settled by the court.
"Good!" When King Lu heard this, he exclaimed and nodded heavily, "That's it!" β
Wang Yi felt that this trick was a little inappropriate, a bit of self-surrender, but he had no other way, and this could indeed quickly distinguish between friend and foe, so he did not say anything against it.
"Your Highness, then come forward from the humble position, gather the civil and military forces in Zhejiang, and find an opportunity to try them!" Xiao Qi will be busy hugging his fists.
He is the most concerned about this matter, because the court is already investigating him, if King Lu can't seize power, once the court finds out that he instructed his subordinates, kill hundreds of people in Hujiazhuang, and put Zhu Cihuan under house arrest, then he will inevitably be swept to the end and exterminated.
King Lu nodded, and at this moment, King Lu's henchman guard suddenly walked into the lobby and saluted: "Your Highness, there is a secret letter from King Tang!" β
When several people in the hall heard that it was the news sent by Tang Fan, their hearts were immediately shocked, and their eyes were full of fire.
Is it going to happen? The Tang King has already made a move, is it difficult to follow the example of Chengzu and raise troops? Is Wang Yan dead?
Everyone was nervous in an instant, and they felt that a great era was coming.
Ruan Jun, Wang Yi and others couldn't help but hold their breath, staring at King Lu, seeing him take the letter, then remove the wax seal and take out the letter to watch.
King Lu's face changed for a while, his eyes followed the handwriting, and he suddenly let out a loud laugh in the middle of the ring: "Haha, good!" β
"Your Highness, is it difficult for the Tang Domain to raise troops? Jin Shenghuan and Zheng Chenggong have all launched! Wang Yi still asked.
King Lu's face was full of smiles, "Wang Yan will return to Nanjing from Huguang in mid-July, and Jin Shenghuan will open the net in Anqing, waiting for him to drill." Zheng Chenggong sent the reckless sailors north, and his subordinate general Gan Hui guarded against Guangzhou. The king of Tang asked the king to raise troops immediately, and before the news of Wang Yan's ambush reached Nanjing, the troops came to Nanjing, and he responded internally, opened the city gate for our army, and enlarged the army into the city! β
The meaning of the king of Tang was to let the king of Lu come to Nanjing before the news of Wang Yan's ambush reached Nanjing, and at this time his identity had not yet been exposed, and the Nanjing court did not know that he asked Jin Shenghuan to ambush Wang Yan, but thought that as long as the king of Lu rebelled, then he would have the opportunity to cooperate with the king of Lu and take Nanjing together.
"Your Highness, if this is the case, great things will be done!" Xiao Qi will be overjoyed, "Your Highness, let's start the army immediately!" β
The smile on King Lu's face, he couldn't help it, Tang Wang's idiot, the level was really far from his brother's, if Tang Wang arranged it like this, then it would be easier for him to seize power. "Don't worry, wait a few days, you have to unify the hearts of the people in Zhejiang first! On July 15, the government will also organize a memorial service, and you will take the opportunity to gather all the main officials in Zhejiang, and you will only want to sacrifice the martyrs, and put those who do not accept it under house arrest. β
