Chapter 469: The Palace Changes
Just when Liu Ji led the army to fight with the alliance of the four countries in the Western Regions, a major event occurred in the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Empress Dowager of the Great Jin Dynasty, on the night of July 6, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, suddenly died without warning, according to the diagnosis of the Empress Dowager Zhou by the imperial doctor, it was found that the Empress Dowager Zhou was poisoned and died, and suddenly the entire Great Jin Dynasty fell into turmoil.
On the evening of July 8, in a conference hall in the residence of Dou Yan, the chief lieutenant of the military department, Yang Zhong, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Soldiers, Wang Zhihuan, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Rites, Zhao Boran, the chief lieutenant of the Criminal Department, Sun Mingtao, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Works, Zheng Kai, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Households, Han Renji, the secretary of the Ministry of Soldiers, Wu Ziyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Zhang Shunran, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, Chen Sikai, the general of the Hussar Department, Xiao Su, the general of the hussars, Li Hong, the general of the hussars, and He Guangzong, the general of the hussars, all gathered here. Everyone's face was very solemn.
The hussar general Li Hong and the hussar general He Guangzong had just returned to Canglong City with the forbidden army that had gone to the seven southeastern states to quell the rebellion, as well as the other 34 rebel troops.
After the Red Turban Army accepted the recruitment of the Great Jin Dynasty, all of them retreated to the territory of Suzhou and were reorganized into twenty-five Suzhou Xiang military guards, and Zhang Mingqi, the leader of the Red Turban Army, also took over the position of the state pastor of Suzhou.
The counterinsurgency armies of the imperial court saw that the Red Turban Army had no objection, so they returned to Canglong City happily and waited for the court's reward for them.
However, the court's rewards for the various counterinsurgents have not yet been discussed, and the queen mother, who listened to the government, was poisoned to death.
In addition to the forbidden army, the 34th Route Suppression Rebel Army entered the suburbs of Canglong City at this time, which made the situation in Canglong City even more complicated.
Zhao Boran, the captain of the Criminal Department, said to the others in a deep voice: "The characteristics of the Queen Mother's poisoning are too obvious to cover up the past, according to the evidence currently available, the Queen Mother is likely to have been poisoned by a palace maid next to her, and this palace maid has already committed suicide by taking poison, and with the death of this palace maid, now all the clues are broken." β
Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, immediately frowned and asked Zhao Boran, the captain of the criminal department, "When did that palace maid enter the palace?" She died, so are there any suspicions from the people close to her? The dignified Queen Mother of a country was poisoned, and we can't let the real culprit behind the scenes go unpunished! β
Zhao Boran, the captain of the Criminal Department, shook his head and said: "That palace maid has been in the palace since she was a child, and now she has been in the palace for more than ten years, and she has been with the Queen Mother for almost three years, and her family is all gone because of a plague a few years ago, and no clues can be found from her. β
Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, sighed and said: "The criminal department must do its best to find out the real culprit behind the poisoning of the Queen Mother, don't let people misunderstand that the death of the Queen Mother is related to our thirteenth family." β
Yang Zhong, the chief lieutenant of the ministry, then said with a wry smile: "Now there are rumors in the capital that it is our thirteenth family who poisoned the queen mother, and I have asked the officials in the capital to arrest the people who spread the rumors, but with little success, and now this rumor has spread throughout the capital." β
After a pause, Yang Zhong, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Officials, continued: "What's worse is that many people believe this rumor, including our emperor, who has made a lot of moves in the past two days. β
Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, snorted coldly and said: "Our emperor is really too naΓ―ve, thinking that with the eighty or ninety thousand people of Qianzhou Prefecture Mu Liu Chong, Pizhou State Mu Liu Yuan, and Qinzhou State Mu Liu Du, he can shake the foundation of our thirteenth family, it is simply whimsical!" β
This time he went to the seven southeastern states to quell the rebellion, and Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, brought 40,000 troops, Liu Yuan, the governor of Pizhou, brought 30,000 troops, and Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, also brought 30,000 troops, but among the 100,000 troops, there were also nearly 30,000 auxiliary soldiers who escorted grain and grass.
The armies of these three state pastors have lost some soldiers outside Qinhuai City, and now the combined soldiers and horses of the three state pastors are only 87,000 people, of which the number of soldiers is less than 60,000.
Hussar General Li Hong said loudly: "Although General He and I only brought back 150,000 elites of the forbidden army this time, the two of us also brought back 100,000 elites requisitioned from the army of several southeastern states and local armies, plus the original 350,000 elites of the forbidden army in the capital, and the newly recruited 100,000 recruits of the forbidden army, our sixteen guards of the forbidden army still have a huge strength of 700,000, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the three clans, don't want to make any moths in the capital!" β
Sun Mingtao, the lieutenant of the Ministry of Industry, said suddenly: "I heard that the emperor seems to have secretly controlled a part of the forbidden army, and now the situation in the capital is complicated, and the forbidden army must not make any mistakes." β
The hussar general He Guangzong said with a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth: "You don't need to worry, several generals of the forbidden army who have taken refuge in the emperor have all died in the southeast counterinsurgency, and the thousands of soldiers of the forbidden army who have fallen to the emperor have also died bravely in the counterinsurgency, and the forbidden army is still the forbidden army of our thirteenth family!" β
Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, nodded and said: "During this time, we must be more careful, now on the outskirts of the capital, but there are still 34 ways to level the rebels, these 34 ways to level the rebels combined, there are almost 800,000 people, the forbidden army must strengthen the defense of the entire capital, and must not be careless!" β
Hussar general Xiao Su, hussar general Li Hong, and hussar general He Guangzong nodded one after another, saying that the forbidden army would definitely do a good job in the defense of the entire capital, and would never give the small people a chance to take advantage of it.
Wang Zhihuan, the captain of the Ministry of Rites, said indifferently: "Among the 34 rebels outside Canglong City, there are nine state ministers and twelve soldiers and horses of the Taishou, all of whom are related to our thirteenth family, and only those three clans will be mixed with the emperor, there are 700,000 forbidden troops here, and the emperor can't turn the sky." β
Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, said: "Captain Wang is reasonable, so everyone doesn't need to worry too much about the current situation. β
The previous emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liu Wei, also died violently, and then under the compromise of the Empress Dowager Zhou, thirteen court ministers including Dou Yan, the military captain, were appointed as ministers to assist the Empress Dowager Zhou to take charge of the government together.
When the thirteen important ministers of the imperial court gathered in the mansion of Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, in the Yangxin Palace in the imperial palace of Canglong City, Liu Heng, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, gritted his teeth and said to Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites: "Uncle, now that the queen mother has been killed, I want to avenge the queen mother!" β
When Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, heard this, he immediately said urgently: "Your Majesty, don't act impulsively, although the forbidden army has lost about 300,000 elites in the process of counterinsurgency in the seven southeastern states, but after supplementation, the forbidden army in the capital still has 700,000 people, these 700,000 forbidden troops will not obey the emperor's will at all, they will all stand on the side of the thirteenth family, once the emperor acts impulsively, the consequences will be unimaginable!" β
Emperor Liu Heng said angrily: "Uncle, the queen mother was killed by the people of the thirteenth family, how can I not be impulsive!" Now the soldiers and horses of Liu Chong, Liu Yuan, and Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, are on the outskirts of Canglong City, and I am ready to let the troops of these three clans enter the side of the Qingjun in the capital and eradicate those thieves led by the six Tai Lieutenants! β
Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, said in shock: "The emperor must not! The soldiers and horses in the hands of the three clans are less than 100,000, and in the face of the 700,000 elite of the forbidden army, it is like hitting a stone with an egg, not to mention the other 31 rebels on the outskirts of the capital, there are many minions of the thirteenth family, and the emperor has no chance of winning at all! What's more, the real culprit who killed the Queen Mother has not yet been determined to be the Thirteenth Family! β
Emperor Liu Heng said angrily: "Except for the people of the Thirteenth Family, who can kill the Queen Mother!" My father died violently, and now my mother was poisoned and poisoned, even if I don't have any chance of winning, I will burn the jade of the thirteenth family! β
Then Emperor Liu Heng said: "Uncle, I also summoned Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, Liu Yuan, and Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, to enter the palace tonight. β
Seeing Liu Heng's angry appearance, Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, knew that if he persuaded him, Liu Heng would definitely not listen, Zhou Qingyao only hoped that the three clans would not follow Liu Heng to mess around, otherwise the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.
Soon after, Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, Liu Yuan, the governor of Pizhou, and Liu Du, the pastor of Qinzhou, were brought into the Yangxin Palace by several eunuchs.
"Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, has seen the emperor!"
"Liu Yuan, the minister of Pizhou, meets the emperor!"
"Chenqinzhou Governor Liu Du see the emperor!"
Emperor Liu Heng hurriedly asked the three state pastors, "How are you discussing?" Do you agree with me on the side of the Qing Jun? β
Qianzhou Governor Liu Chong, Pizhou Governor Liu Yuan and Qinzhou Governor Liu Du looked at each other, with a wry smile on their faces, yesterday the three of them were summoned into the palace by the emperor, and the emperor asked the three of them to lead troops into Canglong City, in the name of the Qing monarch's side, to capture thirteen important ministers of the court, including Dou Yan, the captain of the military department, and take over hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops in Canglong City.
The emperor's request did not scare Liu Chong, Liu Yuan and Liu Du to death, you must know that the total army in the hands of the three of them is only 87,000 people, of which there are less than 60,000 soldiers, and the remaining nearly 30,000 are auxiliary soldiers with very weak combat effectiveness.
With such a small army, where can it be the opponent of the forbidden army in the capital, let alone enter the capital, once the three of them make any rash moves, they don't even need the forbidden army to do anything, and those who obey the orders of the thirteenth family can swallow up the tens of thousands of troops in the hands of the three people.
Yesterday, the three state pastors only persuaded Liu Heng a few words, and then saw that Liu Heng looked like he was going to kill someone, so they no longer persuaded each other, and could only say to Liu Heng that this time the stakes were very important, and they needed to go back and discuss it with their henchmen.
I didn't expect Emperor Liu Heng to be so anxious, and summoned the three of them into the palace this evening.
Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, glanced at Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites next to him, and then said, "I don't know Lord Zhou, what do you think of the emperor's plan?" β
Before Zhou Qingyao could speak, Emperor Liu Heng said: "There is no need to ask my uncle, I have already made up my mind, no matter what, I will avenge my mother and take back the power of the imperial court!" β
Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, said bitterly: "The emperor, the ministers and others are all children of the clan, and they can have their current status, but also rely on the gifts of the emperor and the queen mother. β
Pizhou Prefecture Pastor Liu Yuan then said: "Lord Liu Chong is reasonable, the three of us are the children of the clan, even if we are defeated and die, it can be regarded as seeking benevolence, but the defeat of the three of us will definitely affect the emperor, if the thirteenth family is unfavorable to the emperor because of this matter, then the three of us will die, and it is difficult to escape the blame!" β
Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, also persuaded Emperor Liu Heng: "The emperor's body of ten thousand gold, once there is any mistake, it will shake the foundation of our Great Jin, and the emperor is asked to endure the humiliation for a while, and when we have more power, it is not too late to clean up the thirteenth family!" β
The more Emperor Liu Heng listened, the more ugly his face became, "I am not afraid of death, in order to avenge my mother, even if I take my life, I am willing!" β
Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, sighed and said: "Your Majesty, according to the current situation, even if the emperor puts his life on the line, he will not be able to move the thirteenth family at all, Your Majesty, let's continue to endure it!" β
Liu Heng roared angrily: "No! I can't hold back any longer! I must avenge my mother! β
Regarding Liu Heng's insistence on revenge, Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the three state pastors all smiled bitterly and shook their heads, they would never dare to accompany Emperor Liu Heng to toss around.
Liu Heng saw that the few people he relied on were unwilling to avenge his mother, so he couldn't help but feel sad and cried out loud.
Seeing the emperor crying, Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, immediately cried, he was the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Zhou, why didn't he want to avenge the Empress Dowager Zhou!
And the three state pastors, who are the children of the clan, also shed tears when they saw the emperor crying bitterly.
Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, suddenly said to Liu Heng in a sad voice: "Your Majesty, it's not that there is no chance to eradicate the Thirteenth Family, and now there are two forces in the Great Jin Dynasty, which are enough to compete with the Thirteenth Family, as long as the emperor can get the help of one of the forces, we will have a chance to eradicate the Thirteenth Family!" β
Several people in the Yangxin Palace understood that the two forces mentioned by Liu Du, the governor of Qinzhou, referred to the Broken Army and the Suzhou Xiang Army, which was adapted from the Red Turban Army.
Liu Heng wiped his tears and said, "I have already sent someone to inform the conquest general Liu Ji, the conquest general Liu Ji is my brother-in-law, and he will definitely support me!" But now that the general is leading troops to fight against the coalition forces of the four great powers in the Western Regions, it is impossible to send troops to the capital, and the Suzhou Xiang army has just returned to the imperial court, will the Suzhou Xiang army obey my will? β
