Chapter 444: The Third Round (Part II)
Su Yan and Su Bi both thought that as long as Hua Ji'an was brought back to Chang'an City, it would be equivalent to completely removing the threat of the rebels, and the snake would not be able to do it without a head, even when Su Bi learned that Qi Fang was not among the generals in Chang'an City, she did not expect that Qi Fang, who had always seemed to be honest, would dare to openly rebel and lead troops to besiege Chang'an City.
"Fourth Emperor Sister, this matter is too important, why don't you go to Fengcui Palace and discuss with the ministers first, and see if they can come up with an idea?" Su Yan showed his own panic at such a pressing moment, the nightmare he had been having all this time finally came true today, the rebels were really coming, how could he sit still.
Su Bi hurriedly said: "When is the emperor, the fire burns his eyebrows, you go and discuss with them what the result can be." Don't forget, the emperor, Chang'an City is not a small city in Xuzhou, even if it is Xuzhou City, isn't the army against the king not defeated for two months? The emperor really doesn't need to be overly anxious. β
The last thing Su Yan wanted to recall was the bleak time in Xuzhou City, at this time, Su Bi compared Chang'an City with Xuzhou City, and when the time came, Su Yan's face turned gray, and Su Yan murmured: "Come again?" β
Su Bi was slightly stunned and couldn't understand what Su Yan meant, what Su Yan really meant, and let me be trapped in the lonely city to be a puppet emperor?
Su Bi said: "The concubine will send someone to persuade Qi Fang to surrender, that Qi Fang's old mother is still in Chang'an City, and his fiancΓ©e, he is just an ordinary general under Liu Wenyan, it is likely that he was bewitched by Hua Ji'an, as long as he declares his righteousness, he will definitely be arrested!" β
Su Yan muttered: "You don't have to be captured, he just withdraws his troops." Fourth Emperor Sister, why don't you discuss with the master! β
Subi was going crazy. Su Yan hadn't forgotten Liu Wenyan until this time.
"It's useless. The concubine has killed him! Su Bi said angrily.
"Huh?" Su Yan was dumbfounded when he heard this. Deng Shi sat slumped on the ground with an unbelievable expression, "Fourth Emperor Sister...... You...... What a ...... The master killed? β
Su Bi pulled Su Yan, but Su Yan couldn't get up, so Su Bi had to tell the truth: "It's just to take people down, not to wait for the emperor's order." β
"That's good, that's good!" Su Yan barely got up from the ground, but his legs immediately went limp.
Because Su Bi followed with a sentence: "If you want to completely calm the trouble." Then Liu Wenyan must be killed! β
Su Yan squatted on the ground, trembling all over her body like a little beggar, and still muttering to herself: "Why do you say the same thing as her, you ...... Why do you hate the master so much? β
Su Bi asked with a little puzzlement: "Who told the emperor?" β
"No one." Su Yan looked depressed, "Fourth Emperor Sister, what do you want me to do?" β
Su Bixin said that it was finally time for me to appear on the stage, and now Wenchen and the generals are either under house arrest in Fengcui Palace, or they are not in the palace for their own responsibilities, everything is just waiting for her to tie up the emperor and make plans to turn the tide. For the first time, Subi felt like the head of a country.
"The emperor will send someone to persuade Qi Fang to surrender."
"Who?"
Subi thought for a moment. There wasn't much to use around, but she quickly thought of Chai Jin. This should be trustworthy and reliable. The most important thing is that Chai Jin is her husband, and if everything is calm, this is a great achievement.
"If you don't avoid your relatives, the emperor will send the concubine's concubine to go."
"Okay, just go with firewood and horses, Gonggong Wu, you can help me draft an edict immediately...... No, it's a letter of persuasion, so it's written according to the meaning of the four emperor sisters. β
Su Bi commanded Gonggong Wu in high spirits, Gonggong Wu's hand holding the pen was trembling, and in the process of writing, Chai Jin was also called over by the guards, and when Chai Jin held the persuasion book, his hand trembled even more.
"If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent, donkey, take care all the way!" Su Bi looked at her husband with trust, but Chai Jin felt that Su Bi was going to push him to death.
"I ...... I...... I'll go here, here, here......" Chai Jin was so nervous that his words were slurred, and he took three steps with the letter of persuasion and walked out of the door of the Yaqian Hall in two steps.
Su Yan still looked anxious there, and Su Bi continued to ask for instructions: "Please ask the emperor to order immediately to behead the rebels and show the public." β
"Kill whom? Marquis of Wuyi? Or is it Huaji'an? It's already night, how can you show the public? β
Su Bi said with a fierce face: "Behead in front of Fengcui Palace, and let those ministers see the fate of those who dare to be enemies of the imperial court." β
Su Yan was completely flustered at this time, not only to let him personally order Liu Yu to be beheaded, but also in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, which he would never dare to do before, but today he had no choice, before he discussed with Cao Yi, Cao Yi gave him basically the same answer, as long as Liu Wenyan was beheaded, then all problems would be solved.
Su Bi wanted to stabilize her position more and take revenge, while Cao Yi was on the matter.
Cao Yi knew that Liu Yu's status in the rebels was as high as ever, and everything was Liu Yubu's bureau, but she couldn't understand what Liu Yu's bureau was, but she also knew that as long as Liu Yu died, everything would be solved, because Liu Yu's bureau would definitely not include his own death. Su Bi didn't know that Liu Yu was still in full control of the three armies, she only knew that Lu Dao was now the commander of the three armies was Hua Ji'an, and she proposed to kill Hua Ji'an in order to stabilize the dynasty, while killing Liu Yu was purely to vent her personal anger and consolidate her position in the court.
"Your Majesty, please give an order."
"That'...... That is also ...... by the Four Emperor Sisters Do it for you! β
It was a bit cruel for Su Yan to let Su Yan personally order, Su Yan chose to continue to watch from the wall, which was tantamount to handing over the power of life and death to Su Bi, Su Bi was not polite, and immediately drafted an edict on behalf of the sky, bitterly Chen The military generals' treasonous ambitions, scolded them with blood, and then convicted them: the crime is not forgiven, and they will all be beheaded and shown to the public!
After the edict was drafted, Su Bi showed the edict to Su Yan, who just glanced at it twice and waved his hand and said, "That's it." β
Then let Wu Gonggong use the jade seal and his handprint. Such an edict to kill meritorious generals has been completed.
"Father-in-law Wu, I'm going to bother you again." Su Bi said to Duke Wu, "Please personally hand over the edict to the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, he should know what to do." β
Wu Gonggong is shaking with the edict in his hand, he has been a slave all his life, although sometimes he will express a little opinion on court affairs, but he has never done anything important involving the safety of the royal family, and now the edict of killing the generals actually asked him to send Xuan, he felt as if he was being held by a knife to his neck, and his head was about to move at any time.
"Gonggong Wu, what are you waiting for?" Su Bi saw that Gonggong Wu's hands and feet were weak, and his face turned pale.
"Old slave...... That's it...... Let's go ......."
Gonggong Wu took the edict, walked out of the Yaqian Hall in small steps, and called a few little eunuchs and guards of the Imperial Forest Army to follow him in the direction of the main courtyard of the palace.
At this time, Su Yan was sitting cross-legged on the small kang in the Yaqian Hall, and a person seemed to be trembling there.
"The emperor has nothing to do, right?" Su Bi asked with a very concerned look.
"It's fine." Su Yan calmed down a little and said, "Kang...... It's cold. (To be continued......)
