Chapter 496: A Generation of Emperors (34)
Following. [
Xue Ne led the troops to escort the "captives" and slowly stepped into the Dingding Gate. The faces of the gatekeepers instantly became solemn, and they cleared the hole in the city gate with ten speeds, and drove the idle people to the side to make sure that the city gate was unimpeded. When the people heard the news that it was to escort the Khitan prisoners, they all vied on both sides to see the majesty of the Great Zhou soldiers.
For a time, Dingdingmen was boiling and the crowd was excited, and some people even threw dirty things at the "captives". There are people in Hebei whose relatives have been defeated, and they even blurted out curses, if it weren't for the soldiers who stopped them in time, maybe there would have been a slaughter of prisoners on the spot.
But even so, Xue Ne's heart also rose to his throat, these "captives" are all dressed up as their own sons, and accidentally injuring one person will make His Highness reprimand, not to mention what the consequences will be if he kills the last person. What's more, even if he is killed, he can't protect his shortcomings immediately, otherwise the matter will be revealed, and His Highness's major affairs will be suspended.
Looking at the strings of captives, the people of Shendu have an illusion that every time they sacrifice prisoners, the captives are only a few hundred, but this time it seems to be tens of thousands.
When Xue Ne entered Beijing, he should have reported to Wu Chu, the lord of Tiance Mansion, but on the surface, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still recuperating in Hebei. Therefore, he could only find Changshi Dong Mao in Tiance Mansion for the record, and then report to Yao Yuanchong, the official secretary of Xia.
Yao Yuanchong had already received the news of Xue Ne's entry into Beijing, and when he learned that Xue Ne had entered the city, he was ready to greet him in person, and greet a military general with the body of a prime minister, which could be regarded as giving Xue Ne enough face. Of course, more importantly, Yao Yuanchong wanted to know some special news.
Unexpectedly, Ji Xuan, Tang Xiujing, Yan Yuansun and others also seemed to know the news of Xue Ne's entry into Beijing. So the four of them took a carriage to Tianjin Qiaotou and waited for Xue Ne's arrival.
Not long after, when the long escort of the prisoners stepped on the heavenly street to Tianjin Qiaotou. Xue Ne hurriedly rolled the saddle and dismounted, bowed down to greet the prime ministers, and said, "Humble general Xue Ne, meet the prime ministers!" ”
Among the four, Yao Yuanchong inspected the history of the school as an official, and was between the chief and deputy prime ministers, so he held the highest official position. Therefore, Yao Yuanchong was not polite, so he said: "General Xue works with soldiers and horses. Great work. ”
"Working for the country is a blessing for a humble general, not hard!" Xue Neben couldn't speak, and finally uttered such a few words. Beads of sweat were already on his forehead.
Yao Yuanchong knew that Xue Ne was not as bold and talkative as his father Xue Rengui. So he said: "I heard that His Highness is not in good health, is there any major problem now?" ”
Xue Ne finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Your Highness only occasionally feels a cold, although it is a little serious, but with Your Highness's body, you only need to take some time to recover, and you will definitely recover, and by then." Presumably, Hebei is over, and he will return to the dynasty. ”
Yao Yuanchong stared carefully at Xue Ne's eyes. But Xue Ne's words were sincere, after all, he didn't get a trace of information, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if His Royal Highness does not return, Erzhang's power is rising, if he joins forces with the Li family, His Royal Highness's throne is worried, thinking of this, he decided that he must write a long letter tonight, let his second son send it, His Royal Highness will definitely understand his heart.
In this way, after a simple welcome at the bridgehead in Tianjin, "the captives were temporarily detained in the Luozhou Pastoral House and the Magistrate's House."
Nowadays, although the cool officials have gradually faded out of people's sight, the Governor's House left by the Cool Officials is still there, and now the Governor's House is temporarily in charge of the Suzheng Table. So after Yao Yuanchong made a simple arrangement, Ji Ji also went back to the headquarters to arrange to receive the prisoners.
After Xue Ne brought the soldiers of the Left Feather Lin Wei to the Xuanwu Gate, he led the guards to the Right Feather Lin Guard. There is an action tonight, and he must comb his right feather Lin Wei in a very short time.
As for Zuo Yu Lin Wei, although Guo Zhiyun is in the dark, Zuo Yu Lin Wei is a general. General Lang is almost a person from Wu Zheng, so as long as Guo Zhiyun secretly guides, there will be no objections.
So, when Xue Ne entered the Right Feather Lin Wei to sort out the right Feather Lin Guard, Guo Zhiyun summoned the five lieutenant generals of the Left Feather Lin Wei in the Piaoxiang Building.
Intrauterine.
After Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi served the empress, they came to the side hall, and the two of them drank tea while whispering something in a low voice.
"Fifth brother, tomorrow Duanmen will be a prisoner, our brothers will finally be able to show their faces, we represent the saint, fifth brother, this should be the glory of the ancestors, right?" Zhang Changzong raised his handsome face, and his eyes were shining with joy.
Zhang Yizhi's face also showed a touch of arrogance, everything has gone smoothly recently, which makes him feel like a "saint", and the ministers seem to be afraid of them, as long as it is the "holy decree" issued by the brothers, they will be implemented one by one, especially the relocation of Zhang Tongxiu and Zhang Initiative, which is surprisingly smooth. This makes the plan he had buried in his heart a long time ago finally have a chance to come true.
When Zhang Yizhi heard Zhang Changzong's words, he sneered and said, "What is this?" ”
Zhang Changzong was stunned for a moment, and when he saw his brother's disdainful expression, he suddenly felt that there was a lot of article in it, so he asked, "What does Goro mean?" ”
Zhang Yizhi sighed and said: "You and I can have today, thanks to the favor of the saint, we can enjoy the glory and wealth, and you and I deserve to serve the saint, but this does not mean that my brothers will be prosperous in their lives." Ji Ji once said, you and my brother are rich and noble. But the holy dragon body, you also saw ......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Yizhi looked around vigilantly, but he didn't want to say any more. Zhang Changzong couldn't hide his thoughts, so he immediately asked, "Wulang, what do you want?" ”
"Liulang, since ancient times, emperors have all been men, and now the saint is a woman, and we are his favored people, what do you say is our position?" Zhang Yizhi finally couldn't help but say it.
"Ahh Zhang Changzong exclaimed in surprise, immediately covered his mouth, stared at Zhang Yizhi, his eyes showed surprise, and also showed a touch of fear.
After a while, Zhang Changzong said: "That's right, if you think differently, we are holy men, aren't we the emperor's ......?"
In the end, Zhang Changzong still swallowed the word back, but a handsome face also became red, and then, he grabbed the teapot, took the teacup, lifted the teapot very skillfully, and poured the tea into the teacup without leaking, and then Zhang Changzong grabbed the teacup and poured it into his mouth, so he drank six cups in a row, but his breathing was still short.
After the two calmed down, Zhang Yizhi said: "There is news from Hebei, saying that the prince is infected with wind and cold and is bedridden. I guess it must be a recurrence of an old injury, and it is inconvenient to come to the court. If the old injury returns, then we can rest easy. When the time comes, don't say that the Li family, even the Wu family will be at the feet of my Zhang family! ”
Zhang Changzong's little face turned red, he stood up, bowed and said, "Goro, by that time, you will be ...... Brother is polite! ”
Just when the two heads were dreaming of the emperor, in the Yuelai Inn, Wu Zheng had already instructed the final course of action.
Wu Zheng asked the black tooth Changzhi to stand by at the Luoshui Pier. The improved boats of the Ryukyu Navy Division were also resting at the Rakusui Wharf, and in addition to the sailors, there were also food and weapons on the boats, which were used to equip the "captives". Let the sailor go to the divine capital, Wu Chu is also to prepare for failure, of course, this is just in case, and its purpose will naturally not be explained to others.
After some instructions, let everyone rest early, of course, you must not go out without permission, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious.
When night fell, in a single courtyard of the Yuelai Inn, Wu Chu was already in full array, and before closing the door, the black tooth Changzhi went to the Luoshui Wharf, and of course Dong Wu followed, in order to be able to pass on the news. After all, Luoyang is vertical and horizontal, and only Dong Wu, who grew up in Luoyang since childhood, is very familiar with it.
After the second shopkeeper served dinner, everyone finished eating together, until the end of the day, the shops were closed, and life in the shops was very busy.
Wu Chu suddenly got up and shouted in a low voice: "Action!" ”
Immediately, everyone stood up and looked at Wu Chu, Wu Chu glanced around, and said, "Tonight's success or failure, in one move, go!" ”
Immediately, everyone carried weapons in their arms and followed closely behind Wu Zheng.
Zhu shopkeeper saw so many people coming out of the backyard, he couldn't help but be startled, and then saw that it was the group of leather merchants, and said with a smile on his face: "You all have to play, hehe, I don't know the most powerful place in our shop, tell you, go out and turn left, cross three alleys, that's it, sister there, tender ......"
Before the shopkeeper could finish his words, the group ignored him and walked out. Zhu shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, thinking that these wealthy uncles were disdainful, and when he saw that he turned to the right, he shouted loudly: "Everyone, to the right is the Zhangjia Gambling House!" ”
Then shook his head, these traders who ran the business, although they made a lot of money, but when they entered the gambling house, it was difficult to say, not to mention that the Zhang family gambling house was notoriously black, and then the two sons of the Zhang family were in the palace.
Although the shopkeeper didn't know what Erzhang was doing in the palace, he made him feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Wu Chuan and his group came out of the Yuelai Inn, and one of them immediately came to Wu Zhuang, and said something in his ear, Wu Chuan nodded, and came directly to a private house. I saw a smile on Yang Zhiqian's yin-like face, and he saluted: "I have been waiting for His Highness for a long time!" ”
Wu Chu waved his hand and said, "Lead the way!" ”
Yang Zhiqian didn't dare to slack off, and then led everyone to the ice cellar in the backyard, Luoyang Fugui House, which is generally dug with such an ice cellar to store ice cubes in winter and use it to cool off in summer.
But the ice cellar here is just to cover up, and in the depths of the ice cellar is a secret passage leading to the second pier of Luoshui.
Of course, there is not only one section of the secret passage, Luoyang City, which is not high, digging the secret passage is easy to cause landslides, so this secret passage is only a secret passage to Linfang.
Led by Yang Zhiqian, he soon drilled into the secret passage, and after a cup of tea kung fu, he drilled out of the ground, so he came to Linfang. This is just a barren wasteland, Wu Shu frowned and looked at Yang Zhiqian.
Yang Zhiqian said: "There is a secret passage in the house in front, and you will go to the second pier after passing through. ”
Wu Chu nodded, and then ordered: "Let's go!" (To be continued......)
