Chapter 657: Another Day
Chapter 657: Change the day
Xu Liu's opinion was not adopted by the two bosses after all, because it seemed too bullshitty to anyone. Just because there was a murder in the city of Hangzhou, and the government closed the city gate to arrest the culprit, and let the inner shì not enter, how can it be reasonable to judge that something happened in the city?
Xu Liang wanted to stab the matter to the emperor, Zhu Shengfei and Zhao Ding disagreed, the Son of Heaven had been grieving for the past few days, and the red tape of the law had made him tired, so he really shouldn't disturb the holy car at this time. In turn, these two seniors also enlightened Xu Liu, saying that things will not be what you think, wash and sleep.
Xu Liu went upstairs, how could he sleep? Although after Zhu Shengfei and Zhao Dun's persuasion, he himself was a little shaken, but from all aspects, it is indeed possible for things to happen! If we don't take any action tonight, wait until tomorrow, and the officials and I will not be able to leave even if we want to.
Looking out the window, it was still pitch black, and I couldn't estimate the time. Every time Xu Liang passed, the anxiety in his heart increased by one point. Although he was the deputy minister in charge of military affairs, he could not even transfer a single soldier without the emperor's instructions and the permission of the ruler. Even in Renhe County, which is more than 30 miles away from here, there is a force stationed in the Xuanfu Division of Liangzhejiang.
Walking restlessly back and forth in the room, Xu Liang guessed what would happen if something really happened. Once the Emperor Taishang is restored, there will be no two days in the sky, there will be no two monarchs in the country, and the official family will definitely be abolished. We, the ruling ministers, may be among the purges, and we will inevitably go far away to the poor countryside! What's even more terrifying is that if the Emperor Taishang is reinstated, he will definitely change his course completely, abandon the various policies of his father when he was alive, make peace with Jin, and even Lao Jiu's efforts in the northwest will be in vain!
Yu Gong Yu sī, this will be a disaster! And all he can do now is sit back and watch this catastrophe happen! He waited anxiously until dawn, and after tidying up, he left the courtyard and hurried to the emperor's residence. Maybe it's still too early, and even the inner shì of Emperor Shiì has not yet risen.
Xu Liang waited outside the hospital, praying that time would pass faster. But after thinking about it, I hope that the passage will be slower, because the more time passes, the greater the danger of Ge Ling. Just as he was turning in place anxiously, a voice came: "Xu participates in politics? ”
Xu Liu looked up and saw a young man holding a broom, looking like he was about to clean the courtyard. Seeing him, Xu Liuliu strode in and asked, "Is the official family up?" ”
"How does the villain know?" Nei shì was stunned.
"What about Shen Zhiban?" Xu Liu asked again.
"I don't know." Neishì replied.
"Then you're not going to check it out?" Xu Liu was a little annoyed. Seeing him like this, Nei shì panicked, threw away his grasp and ran to the courtyard. After a while, leading one person out, Xu Liu fixed his eyes and secretly exclaimed, "Supreme Taiyi Tianzun", it was Shen Xue who came.
"Xu participated in politics, so early, but there is something urgent?" Shen Ze asked as he came out.
Xu Liu took two steps forward and pulled him to the side, Shen Ze was surprised and inexplicable: "This ......"
"Shen Zhuban, I must see the official family immediately." Xu Liu said solemnly.
Shen Zemian lù difficult sè: "This is not easy to do, the official family has been working hard for the past two days, and he has not gotten up yet, how can he bother?" ”
"You listen to me......" Xu Liu said at this point, and did not continue.
Shen Ze still looked at him intently, waiting for the following, and seeing that he stopped talking, he asked, "What did you say?" ”
The reason why Xu Liu paused was because there was no concern when discussing this matter with the prime minister, once he stabbed the Son of Heaven, in case there was no such thing, not to mention what responsibility he would have to bear, but it was not good after all. After thinking about it again and again, he still spoke: "I suspect that Huang Shenzheng took the initiative to ask to stay in the city, I'm afraid there is another reason. Last night, I consulted with the two ministers and sent one back to the city to check on the ......"
Shen Ze frowned: "Why don't I know?" ”
"I didn't want to alarm you at the time." Xu Liuxin knew that the official family favored the eunuchs, and the one in front of him was the most open in front of the officials.
Shen Ze smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
But when Neishì called the door, the city guard said that there was a murder in the city, and the whole city was arrested, and the city could not be opened. Is there such a coincidence in the world? Xu Liu whispered.
After hearing this, Shen Ze said suspiciously: "What does Xu mean by participating in politics, what happened in the city?" ”
"Of course! Otherwise, how could I ......" Xu Liuyi spread his hands.
"You're in a hurry to see the official family now, that's why you're here?" Shen Ze looked at him.
Xu Liu nodded, who knows, Shen Xue smiled: "Xu has been worried about politics, the official family has only been out of the city for two days, what can happen?" ”
"Whether it's okay or not, you just need to report it to me, and I have my own measure for the rest!" Xu Liu was anxious.
Shen Xue was unmoved, and arched his hand and said: "This matter is difficult to obey, it is better to wait a while to participate in politics, and after the official family gets up early, I will pass it on for you." After speaking, he turned around and left.
Xu Liu shouted a few times in the back, but the other party only said "En'en", but left without looking back. But he said that after Shen Xue left, he entered the courtyard and waited in front of the emperor's house. After a while, the Son of Heaven woke up, and he went inside to wash. Zhao Chen wiped his face and asked, "I heard someone call you just now, like Xu Qing's tone?" ”
Shen Ze didn't expect the emperor to hear it, so he said truthfully: "It is indeed Xu who participates in politics." ”
"Something is wrong with him?" Zhao Chen asked again.
Shen Ze hesitated for a while, he had dealings with Huang Qianshan, and Huang Qianshan knew that the emperor trusted the eunuchs, so after entering the court, he tried his best to tie up Shen Ze. Now Xu Liang pointed out that Huang Qianshan had different intentions, and he wanted to cover up for Huang. But after thinking about it, if this is the case, how can it be an official?
Besides, this matter can't be covered up, and later, Xu Shenzheng will ask to see the official. Thinking of this, Shen Ze replied: "Xu Shenzheng said that there is an urgent matter. ”
When Zhao Chen heard this, he said, "When you finish grooming, you will summon him in." ”
Shen chose to respond, and combed the emperor's hair. After washing his face, gargling, combing his hair, and changing clothes, everything was done, Shen Xue went out and announced that Xu Liang came in. After the salute, Zhao Chen asked, "Xu Qing, why are you so anxious?" ”
Xu Liang didn't talk nonsense, so he put things together. Zhao Chen was suspicious when he heard it, Huang Qianshan was recommended by Zhu Shengfei to come back, and after entering the middle school, he has been diligent and cautious, not so? However, it is indeed a suspicious coincidence that Neishì is unable to enter the city because of the murder.
Zhao Chen thought about it again and again, but did not agree to Xu Liang's request to transfer troops, but sent Shen Xue to personally go out and investigate in the city. The emperor didn't believe that in just two days, the court could still change? Seeing his attitude, Xu Liu couldn't say anything, just hoping that Shen Ze would quickly bring the news back. The best thing is to think about it yourself.
It is estimated that in order to appease Xu Liang's emotions, or to think that this deputy minister is indeed very loyal, Zhao Chen ordered Xu Liu to have breakfast with him. There are no good things in this hug Pulu, they are all some porridge and side dishes, and there is no meat at all. Xu Liuxin was uneasy, but Zhao Chen didn't seem to mind.
"Xu Qing, why don't you eat? You are relieved, Shen Xue will respond later. Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Xu Liang responded, took a sip of porridge, and when he heard footsteps behind him, he turned back suddenly, but it was just an inner shì to deliver the pastry. Zhao Chen saw that he had some grass and trees, and knew that Shen Zhi would not come back, so he would not be at ease, so he did not persuade him, and only cared about eating by himself. After breakfast, I still have to do the rituals.
Halfway through the meal, I heard a "thump" on the stairs, apparently someone was running upwards. Xu Liang put down his chopsticks and turned his head to wait. Zhao Chen glanced at him, shook his head and smiled, and continued to eat.
A figure rushed into the house, who was Shen Ze? I saw that his face was pale and his expression was frightened, and after he came in, he stood at the door at a loss, his eyes were scattered, and he looked around aimlessly.
Zhao Chen put the dishes and chopsticks down, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Shen Ze swallowed hard, his chest rising and falling, obviously frightened. After a while, he saluted and gasped: "The little slave returned to the city after the edict, walked to the shore of the West Lake, and saw a large number of officers and soldiers coming towards Geling!" ”
Xu Liangru was struck by lightning, his head buzzed, and it was blank! And Zhao Chen is Huo Ran bounced up and fell down again! The face is sè dead ashes! Xu Liang relieved himself, got up and said sharply: "Official! The situation is critical! This must be luàn rebellious thieves raise troops to drive! ”
Zhao Chen suddenly slammed his fist on the table, shaking the cups and plates, and gritted his teeth: "Be bold!" This is rebellion! ”
"Official! I don't have time to bother with that right now! Xu Liang said quickly.
Zhao Chen raised his head, his gaze fell on his face, and the anger in his eyes gradually faded and was replaced by uneasiness. Immediately asked: "In Qing's opinion, what should I do?" ”
"First of all! You must not let the luàn thief go up to Geling! There were 500 soldiers who came here to protect the officials. Let them block the road at once! "Xu Liang is worthy of being born in a family of Xingwu, and he has experienced in the frontier, although he is not panicked at this time.
Zhao Chen nodded vigorously: "Accurate!" I'll leave it to Xu Qing to do! As soon as the words came out, he said, "No, no!" Shen chose to go! These are all forbidden internal guards, he is familiar with them! I still have to discuss with Xu Qing to deal with it! ”
Shen Xue was still standing beside him, and Xu Liang shouted when he saw this: "Didn't you hear the official edict?" ”
Shen Ze's body trembled, and then he came back to his senses, turned around and ran! As soon as he left, Xu Liang said, "Your Majesty, the top priority is to spread the news!" Otherwise, once you are surrounded on the mountain, everything will be over! ”
Zhao Chen said repeatedly: "Okay, well, quickly summon the secretaries to discuss!" ”
Xu Liang's mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all. Withdrawing from it, he sent someone to notify the two prime ministers first, and then went to call Yu Shi Zhongcheng, Dali Siqing, the Privy Council for signing, and those bachelors. The ministers didn't know what was going on, this was breakfast time, and the Son of Heaven urgently summoned him, but why?
More than a dozen important ministers gathered in the courtyard of Zhao Chen's residence, talking about each other. In the end, they all ran to ask Zhu Shengfei and Zhao Ding, the two prime ministers. These two are also in the dark, guessing, did Xu Liu stab the matter to the official family, so I waited until I was summoned?
Xu Shenzheng was too worried, but it just happened that there was a murder in the city, and it was forbidden to enter and exit, why bother?
"Xu is here!" Someone shouted.
Zhu Shengfei and Zhao Ding looked for prestige, only to see Xu Liang running in from outside, the two of them blocked up, Zhao Ding asked first: "Xu participates in politics, what is going on?" ”
Xu Liang closed his eyes in pain, and when Zhu Zhao saw it, he felt a sigh in his heart, could it be ......
At this moment, at the railing on the second floor, Zhao Chen's figure appeared. This Great Song Emperor was expressionless, his hands clutched the railing, and he looked at the ministers under the courtyard.
The noise stopped, and the ministers were saluting, only to hear the official say: "Zhongqing, there is a group of soldiers and horses, which are coming to Geling." He didn't speak loudly, and his voice was even a little shaky.
The ministers are inexplicable, what do you mean? Soldiers and horses coming to Geling? But Zhu Shengfei and Zhao Ding's hearts suddenly fell, "Go down!" They know what that means! After a brief period of horror, remorse ensues! Last night, Xu Shenzheng had already sensed the danger and abnormality, but why didn't he believe it?
Seeing that the emperor was at a loss, Xu Liu couldn't take care of much, turned around, and said to his colleagues: "Those who have the right to mobilize the army are here!" You don't know what's going on! ”
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue! The ministers who understood that they had exploded! Rebellion! Someone is going to rebel! Who is it! Who is so bold! Unauthorized mobilization of the army, is it to the detriment of the Son of Heaven?
Zhao Ding reacted quickly and shouted: "Seal the mountain!" Seal the mountain! ”
"Shen Xue has already been sent! Now, we have to come up with a solution! The Luàn army may attack at any time! Xu Liang said in a deep voice.
This sentence shocked the ministers present even more! Attack? Do they still want to kill people? Who are they?
Zhu Shengfei was already frightened and behaved abnormally, Zhao Ding, as the second minister, raised his arms and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet!" Xu participates in politics, you tell you concisely and concisely! ”
Xu Liang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Then, facing the eyes of the ministers, he briefly said how he suspected that Huang Qianshan had a ghost, how he discussed with the two prime ministers last night, and how he could not enter the city.
As soon as he finished speaking, the accusations were loud! The ministers blamed the two prime ministers one after another, since they discovered the anomaly last night, why didn't they take measures? Xu Liu shouted sharply: "Everyone, now is not the time to accuse!" Find a way! Find a way! Find a way! ”
His fury shocked the ministers at the scene, Zhao Ding calmed his mind and said anxiously: "Xu participates in politics, you said last night that you transferred troops, I'm afraid it's too late now, right?" ”
"At this moment, I'm afraid that the Luàn army is already under the mountain! If they come prepared, they will besiege the mountain! Xu Liang gritted his teeth and said.
As soon as this sentence came out, the scene was deadly! Finished! Disaster is coming! No, who is the rebel? Is Huang Qianshan good? Why is he?
"Then while they don't surround the mountain, send someone down the mountain quickly! Get the word out! Troop transfer! King Qin! Zhao Ding said quickly.
This sentence reminded everyone, and the ministers agreed! They all said vigorously, send someone quickly! Send someone quickly! When there was a lot of noise, an inner shì crawled into the courtyard and shouted: "The officers and soldiers have arrived at the bottom of the mountain!" ”
The noise stopped abruptly, and many people had desperate expressions on their faces! It's over, the Luàn army has arrived at the bottom of the mountain, and it can't be done if you want to send someone out!
Zhu Shengfei only recovered at this time, only to see the old minister desperately gasping for a few breaths, and stammered: "The official, the old minister, the old minister went to reason with them!" Lang Lang, the blue sky and the white sun, the old minister doesn't believe ......"
Xu Liang interrupted him unceremoniously: "Zhu Xiang! ”
Zhu Shengfei was stunned and stared at the other party blankly.
"If they can fight, they don't need to send troops!" Xu Liang's words directly shocked Zhu Shengfei to the point of speechlessness.
Zhao Chen, who was upstairs, shook the railing desperately at this time, gritted his teeth and said, "What's the use of arguing!" Countermeasure! I want to take measures! ”
"Official! Luàn's army had reached the bottom of the mountain, and the road must have been blocked. You can choose a strong and brave warrior, find another place to go down the mountain, and pass on the news! Mobilize the king of troops! Zhao Dinghong said. The ministers are echoed again, okay, send someone quickly! Send someone quickly!
At this time, Zhao Chen obviously trusted Xu Liu very much, and asked, "Xu Qing, what do you think?" ”
"Official, send someone to pass the news out, this is the only way now." Xu Liudao, but the words changed sharply, "But!" Ordinary people can't go! Must be an important minister of the court! Otherwise, how to win the trust of the general! And where to transfer troops! ”
Zhao Chen was almost desperate! Heavyweight? There are only a dozen of them! Is there any one who looks like a warrior? It's all a bunch of old ladies! It seems that Zhu Shengfei is like this, don't say that he is looking elsewhere, even if he is allowed to take the right path, he also has to be supported!
Xu Liu took a deep breath, moved his feet back, knelt down, and fell to the ground with his hands, slamming his head on the ground. When the emperor and his ministers saw this, they didn't know why. I only heard him say: "Your Majesty, if you trust Weichen, the minister is willing to get out and move troops!" ”
Zhao Chen seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, ran downstairs and stumbled, picked up Xu Liang and said: "Aiqing is the minister of my humerus!" Who do you believe if you don't believe me? It's just that...... How do you get down the mountain? ”
Xu Liangzheng said: "The minister has his own way!" ”
Zhao Cheng grabbed his hand and stared at him tightly, and after a long while, he made up his mind and said, "Aiqing will come with me!" With that, he took his hand and went upstairs.
A group of ministers just watched like this, Xu participated in politics? He's not a warrior, is he? Hey, could this guy be that the situation is wrong at first sight, and he wants to turn against the water!
Zhao Ding thought for a while, picked up the hem of his clothes, and rushed upstairs. Zhu Shengfei had completely lost his mind, and was reminded by his colleagues before he hurriedly caught up.
Zhao Chen brought Xu Liang into the house, looked around, and said something in his mouth, but he was looking for paper and pen. Zhao Ding then chased in, and when he saw this, he suggested: "Official! was originally a Taoist priest, but he never brought a seal, which is an official edict, how can he prove it? ”
Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment, and then understood. Yes, there is no one side to the seal, how can people believe that this is my edict? And how to mobilize troops? Fortunately, this emperor has not been frightened stupidly, and he has highlighted amazing deeds! took off the filial piety clothes on his body, and lù took out the light yellow sè single clothes inside. This kind of face sè, which is forbidden to be worn by the people, is exclusive to the royal family.
Zhao Chen untied his belt with all hands and feet, took off the yellow robe, and only obscene clothes were left on his body, but at this critical juncture, who can take care of decency? I saw him spread the yellow robe on the table, Zhao Ding had already taken the pen and ink, the emperor held the pen in his hand, dipped in ink sweat, and suddenly asked: "Where to transfer the soldiers?" ”
