Chapter 136: The Big Picture Is Decided
In the face of the Zhongxing Army and the Forbidden Army surrounded by iron walls, the Shuaifu Army was gradually compressed to a corner of the square, don't look at Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan The two always talk eloquently and scheming on weekdays, as if everything is in their calculations, but now they are like a gourd without a mouth and are silent, trembling under the protection of the army.
"Stop hurting my lord!" Seeing that the tip of the gun was about to pierce his eyes, Yang Qing suddenly led more than a dozen cronies to rush forward.
'Poof, poof...' The tip of the spear sank into the flesh, blood splattered, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people fell under the spear without even rushing in front of the horse, and there was no room to fight back.
"Brothers, isn't it just a death, fight with them!" Seeing his brother who had followed him for many years fall in a pool of blood, Yang Qing's eyes were red, and he waved his knife and shouted, There are about three or four thousand people in Yang Qing's department who were driven here, among which there are many bandits who kill people and steal goods, and they are also aroused by blood, and one hundred and ten people responded to Yang Qing's call and shouted and rushed forward. With the person taking the lead, the others are also eager to try and hug forward, and the situation is tight.
'Bang, bang...' The hussars charged to break the formation, and in the face of this kind of stalking tactics, they immediately ordered the hussars to retreat, and the dragoons stepped forward, and they immediately fired two volleys at the Shuai Fu army who rushed up with guns, and the two armies were only a few dozen steps apart.
"Those who lay down their arms will not die, and those who resist will not be killed!" The Zhongxing army roared in unison, urging the horses to advance slowly with guns.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!" Every step was accompanied by the sound of killing, and the sound of horses' hooves hitting the bluestone seemed to step on their hearts. Yang Qing was killed in the first round of volleys of guns, and the bandits who were shouting to the death just now lay on the ground. Looking at the horse team that pressed up, the people who hugged it quietly retreated again.
"I am the prince of the dynasty. You can't kill me..."Looking at the soldiers who kept retreating, the panicked generals, at the critical moment, it was a group of bandits who had never made them look up to the front to protect the master, and none of the cronies who kept saying that they were loyal to them all day long dared to step forward, Liu Guangshi hid behind the soldiers and did not dare to step forward, Zhao Gou knew that he had no chance to turn over, and he was likely to be killed by the 'people with a heart', so he shouted loudly to the opposite side.
"Yes, yes. We are here to protect the Queen Mother, not a chaotic army, don't misunderstand..."Liu Guangshi also knew that he had no chance to escape under the siege of the army, and the master was trying to save his life, and he immediately came to a person who knew the times as Junjie, and threw his knife on the ground first, and stood aside obediently. And who of the soldiers behind him wants to die, and besides, his main generals have rebelled, so why should he give them a burial. The soldiers from the Chinese army threw down their swords and guns.
Yang Qing is dead, and although those rebels have lost their leaders, they also realize that they may be betrayed and will not be able to escape military law. But in the face of the elite Zhongxing army, it was powerless to resist. can only hate to throw down the knife and gun and follow the big slip. Then Zhao Yi ordered people to step forward and isolate Zhao Gou and several masterminds and generals from the army to prevent further accidents, and then quickly escorted the rebels out of the city in a queue and sent them to several camps around Kaifeng Mansion to be guarded and awaited disposal.
Soon calm returned to the front of Xuande. In addition to the vigilant soldiers of the Zhongxing Army in the huge square, only Zhao Gou and a few others were left alone, and they looked desolate in the local area. Think about your future destiny. Zhao Gou shuddered, of course he knew that Lu Dao had no family affection in front of the throne. He had already taken this step and there was no turning back, but he didn't expect that he would fail so easily, and so completely.
The more Zhao Gou thought about it, the more scared he became, and he also felt the depth of the second brother's scheming, and his army unknowingly let him dismantle it to pieces, which shows that he had already figured out his mind and mastered his every move. Thinking of this, he looked at the two senior staff standing beside him hatefully, they were also panicked, how could he listen to their demagoguery, ignoring the hints of the second brother and delusionally wanting to be the emperor, but he didn't know what he would do with himself when he came down?
"King Kang, the Queen Mother ordered you to enter the palace!" Just as Zhao Gou turned around a thousand times, thinking about how to exonerate himself, an attendant came to Zhao Gou under the escort of a team of guards.
"Obey the command!" Zhao Gou hurriedly responded, and a guard stepped forward to take off the sword on his body, although he hated him for being rude, but at this time there was only helplessness left.
"Let's enter the palace together!" The chamberlain squinted his eyes and glanced at Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan, and said coldly.
"Yes, I obey!" The two of them also played a small drum in their hearts to follow the chamberlain into the palace, and of course they were inevitably searched...
Zhao Gou entered the palace, only to see that the palace was heavily guarded, and everywhere was full of soldiers of the Zhongxing Army armed with muskets, and Zhao Zhong, the leader of the guards, stood outside the Daqing Hall to personally serve as a guard, and the hundred officials and clan relatives in the capital had gathered in front of the palace to wait for the court. Zhao Gou looked frightened, at this time, the Queen Mother summoned Baiguan because of today's incident, it seemed that he could not escape, but to his surprise, the chamberlain asked him to arrange a shift to the court, and did not embarrass him, which made him feel lucky.
Not long after, everyone lined up to enter the hall, but the queen mother did not sit in the court, but hid behind the curtain, which made everyone feel extremely surprised, "Li Xiang, come on!" The voice of the Queen Mother came from behind the curtain.
"Obey the command!" Li Gang didn't seem to have any accidents, and said in a row, "The Emperor Taishang has been rescued from Jin by the King of Qin on the 18th of this month, and the Emperor is now sending King Xin back to Beijing to deliver the decree!" ”
As soon as Li Gang's voice fell, there was a commotion in the palace, the news was too shocking, the emperor was also rescued, so the matter of the ownerless in the country was solved, no wonder the queen mother retreated behind the curtain to listen to the government.
"The Emperor has a will!" At this time, Zhao Zhi came out and said, "The gold thief has entered the Kou, and I have a negative ancestor, and it is passed on to the crown prince Heng... The country cannot be without a king for a day, it belongs to the order of Elun, and the second son of Qin Wang Ta should be a great treasure... But the emperor's throne! If you want to prosper and govern, you must reform the old and make the new. Everything is based on the old chapter, and it is also based on the ancestors. Self-only Liangde, still rely on pro-sage, and work together to create a new rule..."
“… Huan Wude, eliminated his emperor name, and changed his title to the king of Liao; abolished the crown prince and changed the title of King of Huainan County; Now the thieves are rampant, the emperor is personally conscripted, and on the day of the golden triumph, he will choose an auspicious day to carry out the ceremony! ”
"No way, this edict must be fake!" Zhao Gou's face was like ashes when he heard this, the emperor's dream was shattered, and today's failure made him collapse, so he jumped up and shouted.
"King Kang must not be rude, the edict and several governors have been checked, the handwriting and royal custody are correct, and there is King Xin who accompanies the emperor as evidence, how can it be faked!" Li Gang immediately reprimanded.
"That must have been written by King Qin under duress on his father, and he can't do it!" Zhao Gou shouted in the hall.
"The edict is indeed written by the emperor, and the king of Qin personally took the risk to rescue the emperor and the king of Xin and the king in the golden camp, and he has always been respectful, without the slightest offense, let alone coercion!" Zhao Zhi stepped forward and said.
"He must have promised you a lot of benefits, otherwise why would you all talk to him!" Zhao Gou was already crazy, he thought that when King Qin ascended the throne, his opponent would not be spared, and everything was out of the way, wanting to muddy the water.
"Yes, it must be the King of Qin who coerced the Emperor Taishang and King Xin to conspire to forge the edict, how can such a person without a king and father inherit the unification, King Kang should be allowed to ascend the throne as soon as possible, unify the world's male soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty, and welcome back the two saints!" Huang Qianshan realized that this was his last opportunity, and followed suit.
"There is a shortage of pay in the army, causing a rebellion, King Kang led the troops to enter the palace to protect the Queen Mother, but was blocked by the army of the King of Qin, it can be seen that this is the conspiracy of the King of Qin to lead the army into the city and coerce the Queen Mother and the ministers to submit, Li Xiang, you should find out about this matter, uphold justice, and never let his treacherous plan succeed!" Wang Boyan also became bold and bold, trying to reverse black and white.
"Lord Wang, the soldiers who made trouble were Yang Qingbu of your Shuaifu, they killed people and oversold goods, and Kaifeng Mansion asked Shuaifu to suppress it several times, but you were unwilling, so that the Beijing Division was in turmoil, and we had to order the Zhongxing Army to enter the city to quell the rebellion. However, the troops of your Shuaifu did not enter the city to quell the rebellion, but came to force the palace, and I don't know what I wanted! Zong Ze asked out of class.
"Master Zong, you are also the deputy marshal of the Shuai Mansion, why do you refuse to allocate food and salary, which leads to a rebellion!" Huang Qian said kindly, "Oh, it must be that Master Zong has already received the promise of King Qin, and deliberately caused a military rebellion like this, taking the opportunity to blame the Shuai Mansion and relieve the Shuai Mansion of military power, so as to be a minister who supports the dragon!" ”
"Lord Huang, don't spew blood, you don't listen to the dispatch, and the ambition of the wolf son to transfer troops into the capital without authorization is obvious, Yang Qingbu is under your control, in addition to these things, you should also be responsible!" Zong Ze said angrily.
"This matter will be discussed later, the Emperor Taishang has sent news from Huazhou, they can cross the Yellow River tomorrow, ready to welcome the big thing, how to deal with today's affairs, wait for the Emperor Taishang to return to Beijing and then make a decision, and then the truth of the matter of the prince is self-evident!" At this time, the Queen Mother stopped their quarrel and said, "Today's military rebellion, the Shuai Mansion cannot escape the blame, and it did not prevent such a thing from happening again, the Shuai Mansion was immediately disbanded and handed over the military power, and the department was handed over to the Privy Council for reorganization and dismissal, and the army will make arrangements again, before the emperor returns to Beijing, King Kang temporarily lives in the palace and disperses the dynasty!" ”
Zheng Hongmei thought clearly, Zhao Gou wanted to lead the troops to force the palace, and his son had already been prepared, and he had already learned the news the day before he launched, and at this moment, it happened that King Xin had returned to Beijing to pass the decree first, so she summoned Li Gang and several other important ministers into the palace to discuss the matter. Li Gang, who had a holy purpose, advocated the deployment of troops and resolutely suppressed it. And Zhao Ren and others knew the original intention of the prince of Lu Dao, because he didn't want to do too much because it involved family affairs, but he couldn't let it go out of hand.
Therefore, today's plan was set, and as early as the early stage, Zhao Ta used the method of division and disintegration to weaken the strength of the Shuaifu, so that it fell off the chain at a critical moment, which could not only remove the military power of the Shuaifu, but also eliminate its ability to launch another mutiny, which can be regarded as preserving the royal face and continuing to write the record of the Great Song Dynasty without usurping power. Therefore, at the court meeting, Zheng Hongmei did not mention the Zhao Gou mutiny, but disbanded the Shuaifu army in the name of having no way to control it, which led to the rebellion, and imprisoned Zhao Gou in disguise...
