Chapter 3 whitewashes the Taiping Lantern Festival and exposes the ugliness in public
The news of Li Kui's journey came a little later, and when Zheng Ying arrived, it was already dark. When the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion saw Sanniang and others, Zheng Ying said: "At the Lantern Festival tomorrow night, Pang Wanchun and Pang Qiuxia will ambush on the Huishu Tower next to the new bridge on Yujie outside the Kangbao Gate. ”
Lu Zhishen and the others were taken aback when they heard this, Lu Zhishen said: "Assassinating the official's family here in Tokyo is a big crime, the Pang brothers and sisters are really heroic, and the Sprinkle family knows that they are going to avenge Fang La's gang." ”
Deng Yuanjue was originally from Fang La's old department, and when he got up, he said: "The two of them are lonely and weak, so I will go to help them!" Lu Zhishen said well: "The Sprinkle family will also go, it turns out that the lord arranged for me to come here to do this big thing, and the lord didn't say it early." ”
Sanniang couldn't cry or laugh a little, pressed her hands weakly, taught the two to sit for a while, and said slowly: "Although the assassination of Zhao Guan's family relieves hatred, but now the government is controlled by Cai Jing's party. With the fierceness of Cai Jing and other traitors, if this is the case, I am afraid that the people will suffer even more. ”
Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue glanced at each other, sat down slowly, and Lu Zhishen bowed his head and said: "What the lord said is very true, and the Sprinkle family is also in a hurry. Deng Yuanjue also bowed slightly. Sanniang continued: "This fashion is not the time for Zhao Song to fall, they will have their own hardships in the future. Since the Pang brothers and sisters are going to risk assassination, we can't stand idly by, and we will definitely stop them or save them safely when they fail. That's why I'm going to let Master Lu and your brothers come to Tokyo together. ”
Lu Zhishen and the others all suddenly realized, but Deng Yuanjue asked puzzledly: "Since the lord guessed that the Pang brothers and sisters wanted to do this big thing early in the morning, why didn't you stop them in Jeju Mansion?" Sanniang smiled slightly: "This is a conspiracy between his brother and sister, I am just guessing, there is no real evidence, and it is not easy to stop it, I am afraid of hurting the harmony of the two families." Even if Master Deng goes to stop it now, it will be difficult for Master Deng to stop it until tomorrow night, just ask, he will definitely deny it. ”
Deng Yuanjue was right when he thought about it, the assassination of the official family was just Pang Wanchun's plan, and there was no real evidence, if he stopped it, if he said that there was no such thing, it would be difficult for you to stop it, if you sent someone to watch and monitor, it would be too hurtful to the brothers.
Lu Zhishen frowned and said, "Then you can only stop it until they are going to do it tomorrow night?" Sanniang slowly bowed her head and said: "Exactly, since we already know that the two of them plan to make a move in the Huiyan Building, then we will ambush on the left near early in the morning, and when the two of them are defeated, we will escort the two of them out of Tokyo." ”
Lu Zhishen and others all said yes, and now Sanniang ordered someone to summon all the brothers from all roads, and when they arrived, Sanniang carefully arranged the things for tomorrow night, and before leaving, Sanniang instructed: "If the brothers who have met with the officers and soldiers before must be dressed in disguise, and do not leave any insignia on their bodies, lest the officials and soldiers find out that we are people from Shandong Road, and this is not the time to turn their faces with the officials and soldiers." And every man received the commandment, and went out to prepare.
The next day, it was the day when Zhao Song celebrated the recovery of the Yannan Bazhou Lantern Festival. At dusk and on the moon, the six streets and three cities, everywhere are in the corners and alleys, lighting lanterns, and there are social fires in the streets and alleys. There are poems as evidence: Tokyo's scenery is good, and the spring is early in the first sunny day. The silver flower and fire tree never sleeps in the city, and Penglai Island is embraced by land. The candle dragon shines on the night light and cold, and the people sing and dance. Five phoenix feathers support double Beique, six ao back to the three sacred mountains. The red-makeup woman stands under the red curtain, and the white-faced man rides a purple horse. The sheng flute shines into the clouds, and the moonlight shoots the mandarin duck tiles. Back to the smoke building high invaded the blue sky, frolicking back and forth to and fro. The lamp ball is as splendid as a splendid one, and the prince is really a fairy. Tourists are not yet gone, and the high-rise buildings are full of smoke in an instant.
During the day, all the brothers went back to the left of the building to settle down, and then they first looked at the left and right terrain paths, and after noon, there were many Ouchi forbidden troops, golden gun squad guards, and Ouchi guards came to arrange manpower, and all the brothers saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts.
In the evening, when the lights come on, the lights are lit up in and around Tokyo, and the lantern teams from all over the city light up their own lanterns to compete in the lanterns, and the lantern teams walk along the inner city of Tokyo, where the lights are brilliantly lit and the streets are filled with countless people.
At the beginning of the day, the Jeju Mansion Lantern Team arrived left and right, Chen Xizhen only led Du Qian and Song Wan in the Lantern Team, Mu Chun, Xue Yong, Shi Yong, and Li Yun dressed as rural people, and they were next to the crowd, so they settled under the Huishu Bridge, and there were people watching the lights on the left and right, and there were boats rocking in the Cai River under the Zhou Bridge to see the lights.
Gongsun Sheng took Qiao Daoqing, carried the thorn basket, pretended to be a villager and sat under the corridor of the Chenghuang Temple at the other end of the state bridge. This City God Temple, leaning on the side of the royal street. Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue also darkened their faces, pretending to be monks burning fire in the City God Temple, only caring about holding a lamp in front of the temple, and only looking at the public and forbidden troops on the royal street.
Yang Tinghe and Cui Jing, each pushing a car, covered their faces with felt hats, went straight to the back to the smoking building, and flashed in the noisy place. Sanniang, Qiong Ying, and Sun Erniang were all dressed as men, pretending to be rich and noble officials, and sat in the corner of the cigarette building, just waiting for someone to come.
Shi Qian and Bai Sheng each brought more than ten White Lotus Sect members to arrange for the forbidden fireworks. Zheng Ying and the others followed Li Kui and the Pang brothers and sisters, but Ma Ling looked at Yue Fei and Yan Qing and their party.
When it does not move, the upstairs drum beats at two o'clock, upstairs in the Imperial City of Kangbaomen on the Royal Street, the guards come out, the lights suddenly turn on, Zhao Guanjialuan arrives, and the colorful light illuminates the Royal Street, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Gao Yu and others follow closely behind, and they all go to the imperial city.
On the imperial city, Zhao Guanjia sat on the dragon chair, the city head up and down the inside and outside of the worship together, the mountain called long live, after worshipping, its own ministers stepped forward, read out the official will, naturally said that today's lantern race is to celebrate the recovery of Yannan Bazhou, the will will Huizong Emperor is naturally greatly praised, great martial arts, the emperor is extremely new, benevolence and martial arts are not far behind the three emperors and five emperors. When the decree was read, there were cheers inside and outside, and everyone was overjoyed, not knowing that this victory and the reconquest of lost land were bought with money.
Then the warden gave an order, taught the lantern teams of the state capitals to hold up the lanterns, and a team passed through the royal street under the imperial city, and Emperor Huizong was free to enjoy the lanterns at the head of the city. The lanterns tied by the lantern team of the state capital are all kinds, the dragon, phoenix, tiger and lion are all kinds of Rui beast lighting, there are everything, all kinds of lanterns of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum are auspicious, it is also too numerous to mention, there are all kinds of strange mountain scenic spots in Fulu Xianshan, compete for the strange and beautiful, teach people to see the applause again and again, and the cheers are endless.
However, it was said that when the lantern festival began, Li Kui and Pang brothers and sisters arrived at the head of the Huiyan building early, and yesterday they booked an Accord, which was facing the head of the Kangbaomen Imperial City as soon as the window was opened. After the lantern festival came up, the three of them chatted and laughed while eating, drinking and watching the lights. After waiting for the Jeju Mansion Lantern Team to pass, Pang Wanchun suddenly raised his glass and said: "Brother Tieniu, since you and my sister-in-law are married, you are a family, and I can't hide it, I came to Tokyo this time to assassinate Emperor Zhao Song." ”
As soon as these words came out, Rao is Li Kui Mengtian's bold person was also taken aback, only to see Pang Qiuxia nodding and saying: "Brother Tieniu, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's just that your sister-in-law is the lord of the imperial court, I'm afraid that she will be hindered if she knows about it." ”
Li Kui put down the wine bowl in his hand, and said, "It's just the three of me, how can I stab?" Pang Wanchun smiled and said: "There is no need for the Tie Niu brothers to fight, this place is only three hundred steps away from the imperial city, I will shoot in my hand, and I will naturally hit it with one blow!" After saying that, Pang Qiuxia flew up, and took a burden from the beam, but when she opened it, it was an iron-tired bow and several long arrows, which seemed to be specially made.
Pang Wanchun took the bow in his hand and said: "This iron tire bow is specially made by me, it can reach about 300 steps, tonight I will kill this emperor Lao'er and avenge the hundreds of thousands of brothers and people who died in our Jiangnan!" Brother Tie Niu, would you like to help me?! ”
Li Kui is also a good master, and he secretly thought in his heart: "He killed this emperor here, and his sister-in-law can just raise the flag and stand on her own, lead people to Tokyo, and take the bird's seat!" When he slapped the table, he shouted, "Good! ”
At that moment, Li Kui and Pang Qiuxia were in front, holding the iron tire bow on the left and right, Pang Wanchun put on the long arrow, and prepared to shoot the bow.
After the light team of Jeju Mansion at the other end, there were still several teams of light teams, after passing the Kangbao Gate, Du Qian and Song Wan threw out an arrow, and Bai Sheng and Shi Qian saw each other inside, and Shi Qian said: "Our light team has passed, just start!" At that moment, the two leaders of more than ten people took out the fireworks that had been prepared long ago and set them off.
The two of them set off fireworks here, and when they went upstairs to the Pope City, they were taken aback, and Cai Jingqi said: "I should have waited until the lantern team had passed before setting off the fireworks, why was it so early?" Tong Guan, who presided over the matter, had not yet answered, but saw that the fireworks exploded in the air, but they formed words one after another.
I saw sixteen explosions in succession, which are sixteen words, but which sixteen words? Exactly: the official traitor, the shameless, the year money to seek peace, whitewash the peace! Seeing that these sixteen words were in the air, they dispersed for a while, and the inside and outside of the imperial city were quiet, Cai Jing and the others were dumbfounded, and Emperor Huizong was even more angry.
Without waiting for Emperor Huizong to get angry, Cai Jing came back to his senses and hurriedly shouted: "Go and catch the people who are deceived by evil words!" Before the words fell, Shi Qian and Bai Sheng released dozens of fireworks, this time the fireworks were specially made, there was a bamboo tube inside, and after the explosion in mid-air, the white paper in the sky flew down.
After floating to the city, Cai Jing and the others picked it up and took a look, but they almost turned their backs, it turned out that the white paper made the Song Jin alliance and redeemed Yanjing Bazhou with the year's coins to make it clear, and even more clearly said how many years of coins. This is to tear the fig leaf that whitewashes the peace to pieces!
Emperor Huizong also saw one and was immediately furious, but when he saw the leaflet falling in the air, it was all over the city, and he was afraid that everyone knew about it. Emperor Huizong was furious and shouted, "Arrest these thieves with me!" The words fell, only to hear a whoosh, the cold light flashed on the far building, and a long arrow went straight to the door of Emperor Huizong, and Emperor Huizong fell to the ground on his back......
