Chapter 248: The Emperor's "Drag" Formula
Wang Yuan's promotion and salary increase this time, was it Emperor Gaozong's own will, or was it really as Miao Fu said, the result of Kang Lu and Lan Si, the inner eunuchs, fooling Gaozong?
This question, except for Emperor Gaozong and those eunuchs, no one can say clearly, so in the "Renewal of Capital and Governance Tongjian". In Volume 104", it only says: "Fu and Masahiko thought that they were recommended by eunuchs." ”
It is very clear here that Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan both "thought" that it was recommended by the eunuchs. The word "think" says it all.
But one thing is certain, Wang Yuan often has transactions with these eunuchs, and as Wang Yuan's subordinates, he must have heard and witnessed a lot.
Therefore, when Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan spoke to the soldiers, the matter between Wang Yuan and the inner eunuch was like "yellow mud falling into the crotch of his pants, not but"
The problem now is that Miao Fu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, very much hopes to defeat Wang Yuan, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and make himself the boss.
However, in the ancient land of China, it is a very difficult and dangerous thing to overstep the challenge at any time.
Although Miao Fu already had a lot of reasons and evidence in his hands: for example, Wang Yuan privately used warships to smuggle property to the eunuchs, such as the various evil deeds of those eunuchs, and for example, the private gifts and acceptance between those eunuchs and Wang Yuan, and the control of the government, and so on.
Although Miao Fu found a powerful helper - Liu Zhengyan, who is also the commander of the Royal Forest Army.
However, how did Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan persuade those grassroots soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army to risk their lives to follow them to rebel? Ge Wangyuan's life?
It is not documented in historical documents. But it's certainly not an easy thing to do; Know the way. Most of the Imperial Forest Army was the Hebei Army, and these subordinates that Wang Yuan had personally led.
After several hard work, I finally found some clues in the volume 121 of the "Three Dynasties and the Northern Alliance" and the "Weiyang Patrol Lucky Record":
A year earlier, in the second year of Jianyan, Wang Yuan had gone to Hangzhou to suppress a mutiny among the troops, and after the mutinous soldiers had already given in, he killed 145 of them.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Yuan searched for "stolen goods" in the name of searching. The property of the wealthy businessmen living in Hangzhou was ruthlessly searched. Most of the goods that were shipped to Hangzhou by more than 100 ships this time were those that had been looted from Hangzhou a year ago.
In other words, Wang Yuan had a blood feud with the merchants of Hangzhou and some of the sergeants in the Imperial Forest Army.
In addition, some of the soldiers in the Imperial Forest Army, especially the troops led by Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, who escorted the emperor's relatives to Hangzhou not long ago, among them were middle and lower-ranking generals, some of whom grew up in the Youyan area, and some of them grew up in the Lianghe and Central Plains areas.
These people don't want to go back to their hometown all the time. Therefore, there is a big resentment against Wang Yuan and Emperor Gaozong.
Therefore, there is no love in this world for no reason. There is no hatred for no reason
In any case, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan still made a move, and they saw blood as soon as they made a move, and they commanded Wang Yuan's head to the German army, signed the Privy Council and the Imperial Camp Envoy, and was cut off by Miao Fu.
has been pressed for so long by this flattering person from a civilian background, and our third-generation official cadre, Master Miao Fu, finally let out a bad breath.
I suddenly wondered if Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan would have staged a coup d'état if it hadn't been for the evil deeds of those eunuchs and Wang Yuan hadn't been promoted.
It is a pity that history does not answer hypothetical questions
Since Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan staged the coup d'état in the name of justice, they can only continue to carry out the coup d'état in the name of justice.
Therefore, Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and their subordinates first beheaded and killed all the eunuchs who were still playing outside, and then surrounded the inner city where the emperor's palace was located, and wanted to talk to the emperor
Towards noon that day, Gojong ascended the castle tower, and below him was a large number of imperial guards and more than a hundred bloody human heads. The little emperor was very calm, holding on to the railing, and called to the lower part of the city, asking Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, who were the leaders, to come out to meet him.
Miao and Liu stood up, shouted long live to the emperor three times, knelt down and kowtowed.
…… The situation seemed to be normal, and the little emperor felt good, so he decided to make the scene sufficient, so he opened Chrysostom and asked: "What the hell is going on, Aiqing will start from the beginning." ”
Miao Fu was very obedient, stood up, and started from the beginning loudly.
Master Miao Fu's speech was very level, and he simply sent a solemn question to Emperor Gaozong on behalf of the entire Chinese people:
"Emperor, since you ascended the throne, you have rewarded and punished unfairly, and trusted the eunuchs. Soldiers are not rewarded for their merits, and you agree to the eunuchs' recommendations to you; Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan have corrupted the country to such an extent, and they have not been exiled far away; Wang Yuan retreated in battle, delayed the fighter plane, crossed the river first, and was promoted to privy councillor instead of punishment, what is going on? Now that we have killed Wang Yuan, and the eunuchs outside the palace have also been killed, now please hand over Kang Lu and the others, all of them have been killed, and apologize to the three armies! ”
Emperor Gaozong didn't expect Miao Fu to dare to turn over old accounts and expose his old secrets. This is a public showdown, tearing the skin, it is really a rebellion!
The little emperor can be regarded as a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and in the face of this harsh environment, he can still calmly answer:
"Aiqing should pay attention, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan have been punished and demoted, Wang Yuan was also killed by you, and the eunuchs have died a lot, and now I promise you that I will definitely demote Kang Lu and others to ask questions, and I will not tolerate them. Go back to the barracks and wait for news. ”
Emperor Gaozong once again used his trick at a critical juncture: the word "drag".
When the soldiers return to the camp, everything is fine, as long as they pass the current level, these soldiers are fish and meat on the cutting board.
It's a pity that this time the word "drag" didn't work.
The reason is very simple, Miao and Liu have both helped the little emperor chop vegetables, especially Liu Zhengyan, who helped Wang Yuan and the little emperor do a lot of black box operations, and they understand all kinds of means, and they will definitely not be fooled at this time.
In this way, Miao and Liu's rebels stood in front of the palace gate, and Emperor Gaozong must hand over the great eunuch Kang Xu, otherwise he would not leave.
Emperor Gaozong resolutely refused to hand it over, this is not a problem of one or two eunuchs, it is the emperor's authority that is collapsing, once he even submits to this, he will really wither to the end.
What's more, Kang Lu's tender and white body, the little emperor is really reluctant.
The two sides froze, and as time passed, the rebels outside the imperial city gradually lost their patience.
From the excitement of killing people at the beginning, to the madness of the emperor, and then gradually becoming uneasy; If you go any further, you will soon be overwhelmed by fear and do extreme things
Finally, under the reminder of the ordnance supervisor Ye Zongge, the little emperor suddenly woke up, made a decision, and immediately sent someone to tie Kang Lu outside the city.
"Renewal of Capital and Governance. Volume 104 records that the emperor had no choice but to order Wu Zhan to carry out his duties, and he was caught on the dust of the Qingkou Pavilion, and the guards were captured to the gate, so they were paid Fu and others, that is, they were beheaded downstairs, and their heads were opposed. Xi Meng, Jun Qingzi also.
watched Miao and Liu in front of him, beheading Kang Lu first in half and then rotting and then beheading; When all this is done, the little emperor will still have a reward: Shengmiao Fu will be in charge of the Qingyuan Army's Chengxuan Imperial Camp, and Liu Zhengyan will be in charge of the Weizhou Observation Envoy.
How about it, people have been killed, and the anger has come out, can I go back to the barracks to rest? (To be continued......)
