In today's year, there is nothing in Nanjing that leaves an impression. And the trip he went out last night was not enough for him to have an in-depth understanding of one of the five capitals of Beiyan. Therefore, after leaving the Chen family smoothly in the morning, he let Xiao Jingxian, an old horse who knows the way, to lead the way, and he followed closely without making a sound.

The streets were full of heavily armed patrolmen and horses, and the arrest of people was extremely strict search and checking, and at this time the people who had to go out for their livelihood were stopped and searched, naturally they all complained, and unconsciously talked about the fire last night.

And Yue Qianqiu followed Xiao Jingxian, although he was stopped twice, he relied on the waist card last night and did not receive much criticism. A few officers and soldiers of the provisional inspection just asked a few questions perfunctorily and casually, and waved their hands to let them go when they looked at them as if they could hide sharp weapons. The two of them, who were deaf and clear-sighted, easily distinguished some of the most important information in the gossiping discussions.

"It's really miserable for Deputy Qin to stay behind! Just because he often scolded Xiao Jingxian, the king of Jin, on weekdays, this time he was burned alive! ”

"So don't complain, everyone, there are a lot of people in Lord Qin's family who have escaped, but a total of five of his wives and children are dead, and now the officers and soldiers are searching the streets for suspicious people, isn't there no way?"

"That demon king is simply unconscionable, unforgivable!"

"Yes, if you catch him, you must be chopped alive, and comfort Lord Qin's spirit in the sky! That's a rare good official, clear as water, clear as a mirror! ”

"I heard that two people also died in Tianfeng Xing, and many people were stunned. Those officers and soldiers said that it was the demon king's henchmen who sneaked in, if it wasn't for the girl Xie who found out in time and shouted, maybe even she would have died! ”

"I've heard that Miss Xie is the emperor's heart, even she was almost calculated, Xiao Jingxian is really bold enough!"

Yue Qianqiu heard that many people around him were supporting the deceased and denouncing Xiao Jingxian, his face was silent, but he thought about it quickly. He had personally experienced the matter of Tianfengxing, but the other deputy left-behind guard who was on an equal footing with the deputy left-behind guard of the Sui family actually died, and all the old and young of the family died, and he was naturally shocked when he heard that someone was drinking the order to set fire.

Moreover, the evaluation of Qing Rushui and Ming Rujing is obviously too good, and he was thinking about what was going on with that miserable family, when he heard Xiao Jing open his mouth first. However, compared to his usual voice, the human voice at this moment was slow and deep, coupled with that completely different appearance, even those who were familiar with it before, he was guaranteed that he might not be able to recognize this guy.

"Deputy Qin's stay is different from the other adults in Nanjing City, he is indeed honest and upright, enough to be a model for officials in the world. It is intolerable that such a good official as him should suffer such atrocities! ”

It was the first time for Yue Qianqiu to hear Xiao Jingxian chew words like this, and although there was no momentum in those words, he was a little too familiar with people, so familiar that he could vaguely hear the kind of coercion contained in them. Sure enough, although the people around him were not as sharp as him, they immediately clamored because of Xiao Jingxian's words.

"That's right, Deputy Qin stayed behind and he was a rare good official! Build canals, build ditches and bridges, provide relief to disaster victims, and care for orphans and the poor...... Everyone in the entire city of Nanjing deserves to die, but he can't die! The person who said this was a young man in a Confucian shirt, and his impassioned words were more incendiary than Xiao Jingxian's words just now, and they resonated with more people around him for a while.

At this time, Xiao Jingxian once again quietly lit another fire in the already angry crowd. He deliberately shaved off all his beards today, at first glance he looked at least a dozen years younger, and standing side by side with Yue Qianqiu was like two brothers, and his face, which was originally as white as jade, seemed to be burning like a raging fire at this moment, and it was flushed.

"Xiao Jingxian didn't kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, didn't kill traitorous ministers and ministers, but stared at Deputy Qin to stay behind, it was simply shameless, and he deserved death! Everyone should knock on the grievances, thoroughly investigate the murder of Deputy Qin's stay, and give Deputy Qin a posthumous justice! ”

And another scholar also raised his arms and shouted: "Yes, that's right, the emperor should be asked to administer justice for Deputy Qin's stay!" ”

Yue Qianqiu saw that the officers and soldiers who were going to check the suspicious people around looked at each other for a while, and saw that people from all directions kept hearing the movement and surrounded him, and heard Xiao Jingxian and a few impassioned scribes in a team, successfully inciting the anger of the people, and when the nearly 1,000 people who finally gathered were hulala and walked in the direction of the Nanjing Imperial Palace, he only felt that he was still in a dream.

He had never seen such a brazen person...... Even if Xiao Jingxian can scold himself so confidently, he will never learn it in his life! Moreover, even if Xiao Jingxian, who was left behind by Deputy Qin, died unjustly and was splashed with dirty water, he would not be so enthusiastic about helping people seek justice? Do people still expect the six princes to help him clear his suspicion?

However, as he was surrounded by the crowd and was involuntarily dragged forward, he couldn't help but think of another question - Xiao Jingxian never said where he agreed to meet Xu Houcong. Looking at this posture now, this mighty group of people is about to go to the palace, could it be that Xiao Jingxian and Xu Houcong made an appointment to meet in the palace?

This is just too unrealistic! Don't look at the fact that there are more and more people gathering now, it seems that there are many people, but these are all unarmed civilians, and there is no combat effectiveness! What's more, Xiao Jingxian promised him that the weapon was not sent at all!

He could only follow the character of the little guy next to "Old Lady Chen" before, tugged Xiao Jingxian's arm, and asked nervously: "Big brother, we came out to buy medicine for the old lady, but you are nosy with this kind of thing, isn't it right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, many eyes looked at him around, including mockery, contempt, and annoyance...... However, Yue Qianqiu clearly found that there were also a lot of approving and annoyed eyes mixed in with them, but most of these were also guys who also regretted being involved, but they were wrapped up in the crowd like him, and rushed forward involuntarily.

And Xiao Jingxian didn't speak until the various emotions around him were brewing to the extreme, and then he said: "The old lady usually teaches us to read and reason, respect teachers, and tell us that we should respect those honest and upright adults, because they are the backbone of the world!" Now that Lord Qin has been killed, we only see people stopping and searching all over the street, what's the use of this? Well? ”

He took out the waist card of Sui Mansion from his arms, and raised his voice suddenly: "My brother and I rely on such a waist card, and almost all the checks we encounter along the road are false stories, and this is only because our family is not a first-class dignitary." Think about those princes and nobles who have become powerful and prosperous after arriving in Nanjing City, who will go to check them? ”

"Yongqing, Gu'an, and Anci, why did the three cities rebel and commit rebellion? Isn't it because there are civil officials and military generals in the city who collude with Xiao Jingxian? Ordinary people who can have the ability to collude with the demon king, only those who are officials! Just like the murder of Deputy Qin's stay this time, if it wasn't for someone in the city harboring the demon king's henchmen, how could he have not caught anyone until now! ”

Yue Qianqiu, who originally only felt that his brain was a mess, was like an initiation at this time, and finally understood the origin of Xiao Jingxian's instigation of these people. He knew that even if the dead deputy left-behind lord was indeed innocent and indeed a good official who was upright and honest, Xiao Jingxian would never be so indignant to seek justice for others, this guy really was a drunkard who didn't mean to drink!

Finally comprehended, he immediately gave full play to his acting skills, and still said in a timid and timid tone: "Big brother, we are all small people, since even those officers and soldiers dare not take those big people......"

Before Yue Qianqiu finished speaking, a loud voice like a broken gong came from the side: "Do the little people deserve to be unlucky because of the calculations of those big people?" Last night, Deputy Qin's family was killed, but it was not only his house that was burned down! The Qin family's area was all burned to the ground! Besides, today it is the Qin family and their neighbors who are unlucky, and tomorrow it may be our unlucky! ”

was shouted by the big man like this, and the people around him who had originally retreated were suddenly moved. And at this time, the Confucian who was walking in front with his head held high turned around and shouted to give way.

"Nanjing is our home! If the silverfish in those official faces colluded with the demon king and finally fell, we would have no home! Appeal to the emperor, the government and the people are one, and the whole city is searched, there is no reason for us good citizens to be searched again and again, but those dog officials can get away with it! ”

The echoes of the echoes resounded in an instant. Yue Qianqiu saw that people were spreading the word of mouth, conveying these simple "truths" that he had just heard to those who knew or did not know each other, and saw that those officers and soldiers wanted to stop them at first, but after hearing the higher and higher voices, most of them chose to give way, he couldn't help but look sideways at Xiao Jingxian, who was full of calm faces.

is worthy of being an expert in playing with people's hearts, and one move directly hit the biggest contradiction in Nanjing City today!

The dignitaries and dignitaries brought by the six princes, plus more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, were foreign factions; And Qi Xuan and the officials who stayed in Nanjing and those officials who were originally in Nanjing, plus a large number of ordinary soldiers and civilians, were local factions.

No matter what the reason for those guys who followed the Six Princes left Shangjing, which was originally a base and only brought a few people, as long as these guys didn't want to be controlled by Qi Xuan, the powerful Nanjing guard, they had to start a game with them. Now the result is that it seems that Qi Xuan, who took the lead in allegiance, is very low-key and compromises everywhere, but who can say for sure?

Therefore, since someone has chosen the strategy of killing two birds with one stone, using the death of Deputy Qin to pour dirty water on Xiao Jingxian, and by the way to achieve a certain goal, Xiao Jingxian's return is to directly burn a more violent fire!

However, will everything develop as smoothly as Xiao Jingxian designed? With the former character of Emperor Beiyan, when encountering this kind of scene, he would definitely give up everything and kill directly! As long as the sixth prince inherited one-tenth of his father's tyranny, and as long as those dignitaries and dignitaries also had the habit of using killing methods to solve problems, then the outcome of today's disturbance would definitely not be good.

While muttering that Xiao Jingxian was good at playing with people's hearts, Yue Qianqiu was also secretly sweating in his heart.

Countless slogans and declarations flew in the air, and an endless stream of people continued to join the flow of people, and when they found that there were officers and soldiers joining in at the end, Yue Qianqiu finally couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jingxian again, and asked cautiously: "I said big brother, there are more and more people, is it really okay?" ”

Xiao Jingxian didn't answer this time, but squirmed his lips, and the next moment, a clear voice came from Yue Qianqiu's ears: "This is the most commonly used method when inciting chaos." The so-called respect for the emperor, except for traitorous ministers. To use a more common phrase, this is what many people have used, and it has been tried and tested, and it is called - Qingjun Side. ”

Yue Qianqiu was almost choked to death by himself in one breath. The Qingjun side of the people is calling for a large army, but now they are all rabble, even if there are already soldiers and horses to join, but it is also a few fragments, once those dignitaries and dignitaries realize that this is on the side of the Qingjun, not the rhythm of a river of blood every minute?

However, as the team continued to advance, the people gathered gradually became larger, and the officers and soldiers who joined in were no longer the two or three puppies and kittens at the beginning, but a team, dialing and dialing, and in the end, when the number of people completely exceeded the people, he finally fully realized that Xiao Jingxian was by no means the one who came up with this poisonous trick immediately after such an incident that was obviously unfavorable to him happened last night.

Xiao Jingxian definitely secretly took advantage of Qi Xuan, who was definitely dissatisfied with the princes and nobles around the six princes, and took the opportunity to pry his soldiers and horses around. Now, it's not that they want to clear the monarch's side, but Qi Xuan's plan to clear the monarch's side!

When he was finally able to see the palace, as far as his eyes could see, a large area was already black and full of people. At first, the people were surrounded by many officers and soldiers, and the slogans that shook the sky were completely overshadowed by the heavy footsteps and solemn expressions of the soldiers around them. Even the few scholars who initially echoed Xiao Jingxian and shook the sky with their mouths became dumb at this time.

It was only at this time that Xiao Jingxian showed his snow-white teeth, and his relaxed voice sounded in Yue Qianqiu's ears again: "No matter where Xu Houcong plans to go today, in the face of the current situation, he can't go anywhere, and he must come out to negotiate as soon as possible." There is a price for him to be able to be placed in the position of the commander-in-chief of those forbidden armies by the six princes, that is, he must be at the forefront at the critical moment. ”

Yue Qianqiu glanced at Xiao Jingxian, and for the first time suspected in his heart that he thought that someone was pretending to be Xiao Jingxian to set the fire - and now it seems that it is not impossible for this guy to send someone to set the fire! Just then, he suddenly heard a low voice.

"Someone has come out of the palace!"

Because of the height problem, Yue Qianqiu, who was hidden in the crowd, was not conspicuous at all, so he simply tiptoed to glance at it quickly. When he recognized the person who was approaching at a rapid pace, he had to admit that Xiao Jingxian was indeed very accurate.

The person who came out was the long-lost Xu Houcong!
