Chapter 620: Conspiracy is fermenting

Spring and summer, rainy and continuous, the whole capital is shrouded in a misty drizzle, it seems calm and serene. 【】

"What? How is it possible for 50,000 ti to ride out of Beijing? For such a big thing, I am waiting in the capital, how can I not receive any news at all? But the atmosphere in Zhou's mansion was not harmonious at all, Zhou Jing's eyes widened, and he jumped up all of a sudden.

"It's true, the first news from Baoding came back, I didn't know if it was true or false at that time, and then, the news of Zhending Mansion also came......" Wang Qiong nodded, and sighed again: "The local guard is an upright and loyal person, who made a move on the first batch of fans and killed a few people, and as a result, alas! ”

"This ......" Needless to say, Zhou Jing also understands that Xie Hongzhengde is an extremely protective surname, and the most important thing is to repay them, can the person who killed them be good?

"Are there really so many soldiers?" But he still can't believe it, the emperor has always liked to spend a lot, but this time the scene is a little too big, right?

"Hmm." Wang Qiong's face was sad, and her voice trembled slightly, "Only two days later, tens of thousands of troops surrounded Zhending Mansion, and the leader of the team was the commander Qian Ning...... Alas. ”

"But, where did Jinyiwei get so many people? The march is so fast, it is clearly an elite soldier and horse! Zhou Jing couldn't figure it out.

In the first year of Zhengde, there were only 20,000 Tiqi in Beijing, and then after several rounds of screening, after eliminating the weak and retaining the strong, the number was even less. What's more, Ti Cai was defeated by the border army back then, and it has become a joke in the capital, it has only been less than two years, why did it suddenly become an elite?

It's not scientific! After holding it for a long time, a new term burst out of Zhou Jing's mind.

"It's Jingying!" Wang Qiong said in a low voice: "After the expansion of the Guards, the emperor transferred more than half of the forbidden army, let them take the place of the Beijing camp, and then mixed the elite of the Beijing camp into the Ti Cavalry ......"

"What?" Zhou Jing was shocked, "That means that the emperor was already preparing for this last year?" ”

"Yes, it's not the emperor, it's the annihilation, it's really deliberate!"

"No matter who planned it, it was the emperor's will...... Zhou Jing's face turned pale, and he said tremblingly: "Dehua, after putting on such a big battle and planning for so long, the emperor is definitely not a mere trade route...... Those fanzi are stationed all over the place, and they are also responsible for criminal cases, he wants to win the hearts of the people! ”

Zhou Jing can't estimate how big the profits of monopolizing the trade of the Japanese kingdom are, but as long as you estimate it from the wealth of the Jiangnan people and their own side. The profits of border trade are not as good as those of sea trade, but over the years, the Jin Party is still rich because of this, and after monopolizing sea trade by Xie Hong's means, how can it care about the little silver earned by the merchants?

Obviously, this was just the beginning, and when the brocade guards gained a foothold, they would expand their influence and gradually eliminate the influence of the local gentry, and finally, when the time came, the emperor would reap the fruits of victory.

"It's a good move, it's really wonderful......"

While speaking, Wang Qiong's teeth were also cold breathing: "That Zhan Yu thinks that it is not enough to toss in Beijing and Tianjin, and he wants to follow the mouths of the merchants, spread the situation in Tianjin, and attract more scholars to go, and then ...... Hmph, isn't that the precious son of Yang Jiefu like this? ”

"Not only the gentlemen, but also the squires will be affected."

Zhou Jing shook his head dejectedly, "Where those merchants pass by, there are already big families who have sent people to Tianjin to investigate, and they are obviously excited...... Alas, the conditions over there are indeed good, not only are there all kinds of unheard of goods, but also train craftsmen and build houses on their behalf, Tak Hua, think about it, if it were not the annihilator who was in charge, would you not be tempted? ”

"Brother Bo Chang is worried, but ......" Wang Qiong smiled gloomily, and changed his words: "Misfortune and blessing depend, this matter is not a good opportunity." ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? Zhou Jingyi raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

"After receiving the news of Datong, everyone in Jinzhong is indignant, and now no one will raise objections anymore, that big thing, Han Butang is also planning ......" Wang Qiong smiled and said meaningfully: "The emperor is at this juncture, dividing troops everywhere, isn't it very beneficial to our plan?" ”

"Dehua's words are reasonable, but Liaozhen is far away, and there are few soldiers and horses, so there is nothing to worry about, but in addition to the guards and forbidden army, the emperor can also mobilize the soldiers and horses of Ji and Xuaner Town, and the border troops of these two towns fight with the Tartars all year round, which can be called the elite ...... in the world."

Zhou Jing groaned slightly: "The emperor is also a master of the art of war, even if there is a sudden change, he doesn't have time to summon Tiqi to help, but the soldiers and horses in the two towns are not far away, will he actually ignore it?" ”

"Xuanfu border army, the junior brother already has a plan, as for the soldiers and horses of Jizhen ......" Wang Qiong sneered: "Hmph, that annihilation thinks that he has subdued the whole town, but in fact, there are still a lot of people who are dissatisfied." Let them directly hard cap, they will definitely not dare, but if they see that the general situation is not good, there are still many hesitant people, and when the time comes, as long as the news is spread first. ”

"Brilliant plan!" Zhou Jing exclaimed: "Without further ado, Dehua, you and I should quickly go to meet Wang Ge Lao and discuss the plan, Jiangnan people are also about to act, if they can unify the time and bloom on both sides, they will definitely make that annihilation take care of one and lose the other, and every inch will be in chaos." ”

"No!" Wang Qiong hurriedly stopped: "Brother Bochang, this matter must not be discussed with others!" ”

Zhou Jing looked at each other in amazement and asked, "Why is this?" ”

"Jiangnan Shiren and us are not the same way, but because of their strength, so I avoid them everywhere, and now they also have plans, and they also haven't informed me of the details, so why should we be hot?"

"It's just ......" Now should be the time to work together, Zhou Jing wanted to say this, but seeing Wang Qiong's slightly sneering expression, he also came back to his senses.

Now it's true that they are on the same path, but after the success, the two sides have not parted ways? At that time, no one will care about the friendship of fighting side by side, otherwise, after the civil fort, the most powerful person in the court should be the Jin Party.

Xie Hong's example tells Zhou Jing that if you want to do things well, you must think far-reaching, and people who start working hard from the starting line are really weak, and they start planning from before the game is decided, so as to become the person who has the last laugh.

Of course, my side will not pull the hind legs of the Jiangnan people, anyway, the other party will succeed, and it will be beneficial to my own side. But there is no need to follow the baton of the other party in everything, the opportunity is often fleeting, and you can firmly grasp it by making your own decisions.

"But the acting king has always kept his duty, and now he has been summoned to Beijing, and those who have not been called are in the south, at this time, where to find a suitable one? There is no righteous name, this is the merit of support...... But in this capital, our strength is indeed a little weaker. Zhou Jing quickly changed the subject.

The jump between topics is a bit big, but Wang Qiong knows it, he smiled mysteriously, and said: "Although the acting king is duty, but the acting king is restless, and he got the hint of Han Butang, and he pretended to stay in Datong...... Hehe, it is difficult for us to support an emperor in the capital, but if we just kill a vassal king, it is as easy as a finger. ”

…… Almost at the same time, the other two people in the Wang University Scholar's Mansion were also brewing and perfecting another conspiracy.

"Ge Lao, are you looking for an official?" Wang Jianzhi walked in a hurry, looking anxious. Engaging in conspiracies, especially large-scale conspiracies, is really not an easy job, and he has fully realized this in the past six months or so.

When I was in Nanjing, I was okay, and the bad news I got was all over the place, and I was not afraid of sudden incidents and being pulled out of the bed. But it's different outside, I'm worried all day long, and I've worked hard, although it's only been more than half a year, but Wang Jianzhi always feels like it's been many years.

Speaking of which, he also admires Wang Wei, the other party is worthy of being a pavilion elder, in the Longtan tiger's den in the capital, standing on the cusp of fighting against the imperial power, the pressure is much greater than his own, it is really a shame that he can always stand up.

"Ming Zhong, take a look." Looking up, Wang Wei waved his hand quietly and handed over a letter.

Wang Jianzhi took the letter in disbelief, although Wang Wei's expression did not change, and his tone did not fluctuate, but he clearly heard a hint of depression.

"Ahh As soon as he read a few lines, Wang Jianzhi exclaimed, he understood why Wang Wei was depressed, "Ge Lao, this ......"

"Hey, be careful, or underestimate him......" Wang Wei smiled miserably and said: "It seems to be a courtier, but for thousands of years, who has ever seen such a courtier?" Thoughtful and far-sighted, his plans are interlocking, and in the face of the Manchu Confucianism, he still takes the lead step by step, alas, he still underestimated him after all. ”

"Elder Ge, you can't be discouraged." Wang Jianzhi hurriedly comforted.

"Ming Zhong rest assured, the old man just felt it in his heart, so he just sighed a little." Wang Wei waved his hand and signaled Wang Jianzhi not to worry, "From this matter, the old man also came to a conclusion, that is, when facing this person, you must not see the moves, you should find a way to disrupt his pace and highlight the strange soldiers." ”

"Xiaguan understands." Wang Jianzhi got up vigorously and said angrily: "Xiaguan will go back to Ningbo, inform Xie Ge Lao of the situation here, and urge Jiangnan colleagues to act quickly, so as not to let Xie Hong continue to sit big." ”

"No, you don't understand."

Wang Wei shook his head and said in a deep voice: "You must move when you do it, but you can't be in a hurry, you should wait until you are fully prepared, and then choose the right time." The art of war pays attention to time, place, and people, Xie Hong is good at winning people's hearts, and we can't distinguish between people and him in this regard; He has been operating in Lushun for more than a year, and he has the advantage of geographical advantages, so we must be well prepared. ”

"Xia Guan understands." Wang Jianzhi nodded, and replied with a solemn face: "After returning, the lower officials will urge each family to build as many ships as possible, hurry up and produce weapons, until the preparations are complete, and then launch with a thunderous momentum, so as to achieve all the results." ”

"Okay." Wang Wei slapped the table, shouted hello, and then whispered: "In addition to armaments, over there in Nanchang, Ming Zhong also needs to be careful, the sea forces are trivial after all, and the Central Plains is serious." The Jin Party has always been secretive, but in the old man's mind, the period of their launch should not be far away, and it may be a lose-lose situation, and when the time comes, ......"

"Xia Guan knows." Wang Jian's heart tightened, and he hurriedly answered.

"Hmm." Wang Wei didn't finish his words, he nodded, and said: "In addition, Zhong Xiang might as well go there, although he had relatively little contact before, but since he has not been called, he should also have ideas...... The old man will repair a book, so that the magistrate can be accommodating, eh, the big change is coming, and it is always not wrong to make more preparations. ”

"The lower officials retired, and the elders took care." Wang Jianzhi promised again, floated away, and his figure quickly disappeared into the rain curtain.
