Chapter 130: Bloody Rain
Seeing his expression, Xie Kouniang's heart moved, and she hurriedly smiled: "It's just a casual conversation with the prince, if the prince thinks I'm talkative, it's better not to say it." ”
Zong Hanyuan was also a little suspicious of her, but this Xie Chef Niang's net worth was innocent, and she had already investigated clearly, and she was indeed a famous chef in Chang'an before she arrived in Beijing, and she made good dishes that ordinary people could not match, if this person was a fine worker, he really couldn't believe it. Besides, I've been inviting her to the house for a long time, and I usually chat about nothing, although today's matter is important, where can this little woman save it.
Immediately nodded and smiled, and said warmly: "It's that I think too much, it's okay, I treat you as a family member, you just have something to say in your heart, don't be afraid." ”
Xie Chuniang got his encouragement, and saw that everyone looked at her, but her face turned red for no reason, she lowered her head, and said softly: "When the Han people were in the Three Kingdoms, there were also cases of clan kings and ministers competing for power, on the one hand, they held great power, but they were cowardly and incompetent. ”
The story of the Three Kingdoms in the Song Dynasty has been widely circulated, although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has not yet been written, but there have long been a variety of words circulated among the people, not only in the Song Dynasty, but also in Liao, and Jurchen nobles like Zong Han are naturally clearly understood.
Before Chef Xie finished speaking, Zong Han already had a gloomy face and asked her, "Are you talking about the Sima clan and the Cao clan fighting for the throne?" ”
"Yes, that's what I was talking about."
Zong Han groaned: "I remember that there is a sentence called Cao Zhenhu's father and dog, it seems that you Han minister said it. When Gao Qingyi persuaded me, he often used these anecdotes. ”
He smiled dumbly, and smiled at Chef Xie: "Over the past few thousand years, you Han people have become worse and worse in martial arts, and your scheming has become deeper and deeper. The sword in his hand became more and more immovable. Chef Xie also smiled: "I'm just a cook, where do I know anything about military affairs." However, seeing that the prince is also fighting for power with the brothers, I want to remind the prince to be careful. ”
In fact, without waiting for her to explain, everyone is already clear in their hearts. Even Zong Han laughed at the wisdom and weakness of the Han people, but in his heart he also understood that what the other party said was reasonable. He himself does not want to make trouble, and is willing to back down, while the other party has great power. Whether he is willing to let him go or not is really hard to say.
He turned his head to look at his sons, but saw that their faces were flushed, and his favorite young son, Wan Yanqi, nodded lightly and gestured to his father.
If Zong Han can relieve the threat, the family will naturally be thriving, and even go further, it is not known, but if it is really like the Han political dispute, he retreats and the other party is pressing. The whole family was reduced to fish and meat to be slaughtered. When the time comes, the misery of the situation seems to be right in front of you.
This point, if no one deliberately wakes up. If you use the bloody lessons in the history of the Han people to alert the parties concerned, how can these barbarian peoples who have just gotten rid of the state of ignorance think of the words "kill them all".
At this level, Zongfu is bent on killing Hanchen like Gao Qingyi, but there is indeed a reason for him.
And at this moment, Zong Han got a reminder, as soon as he thought that he blindly gave in, the lives of the whole family were pinned on the other party's thoughts, and he had the power of life and death of millions of people since the day he started the army. Even Jin Taizu relied on him very much, how could he have been threatened like this.
Thinking of this, he immediately got up, his eyes showed a fierce light, and ordered to the princes: "It's still early, you can't make a big show, you will secretly summon all my henchmen and generals in Shangjing, let them be lightly dressed and obedient, and don't show their traces." Also don't come in through the front door, through the back door. ”
"Yes!"
"Let the guards in the palace prepare, the armor and weapons are polished for me, and ask them whether they will follow me to get rich and rich, or are they willing to serve others."
His eldest son, Wan Yanqi, immediately replied: "Father, don't worry, you haven't been in charge of things in the past few years, and everyone in the house feels that the situation is not as good as in previous years, and there are often people who are angry with us, everyone is an old man who has followed you from birth to death for many years, and he has long held his breath, but if you don't give an order, no one dares to say anything." Now, as long as you give the order, no one will dare to say anything. ”
"Good!" Zong Han smiled evilly, lowered his head and thought about it again, and finally waved his hand and ordered: "Go and do things, go and return quickly." If he didn't make a decision, he was just a Jurchen old man with a wrinkled face and gray hair, and when he decided to do it, arrange detailed affairs, meet with the henchmen and generals who led the escort army in the palace one by one, arrange the route, decide the time, and even after the hand, how to end it is also properly arranged, Xie Chuniang is not shy about it, and has been watching, and after Zong Han arranged it properly in the middle of the night, she saw it in her heart one by one, and finally admired, knowing why this person led the troops and swept most of China.
Zong Han was determined to do it, and no longer paid attention to others, sitting in the room, drinking and eating meat, while summoning the generals under his command, after everything was arranged, it was already the middle of the night, there were already many guards in his house, and they had already been mobilized at this time, each with bright armor, swords, guns, bows and arrows in hand, everyone was full of excitement, ready to do it at any time.
The rest of the old department, each according to the order to go back to lead the troops, the Jurchen at this time not long after the founding of the country, the military system is more chaotic, the situation of leading the army generals to control the private army abounds, Zong Han in the old department of Shangjing is very much, at this time, thousands of people have been mobilized, determined to divide the troops several ways, when the time comes, they will start together.
Finally, it was the first moment of the ugly time, the northern weather was cold, and at this time, all the people in the city had already drilled into the nest, and only occasionally passed by to beat the guard, and on the street in the distance, there was a monotonous sound of beating wooden fish.
Zong Han had already eaten and drunk enough, because he was old and lacked energy, and deliberately took a nap, at this time he got up, and when he saw that the hour was almost empty, he stood on the stone steps of the main hall of his palace, and commanded blatantly: "The old man has been riding horses all his life, and he has not suffered a loss when he takes you to the south and north, and now a few children want to climb on my head, and they really don't know whether they are alive or dead." Send troops tonight to get rid of traitors for the country, I am the marshal of the capital, the emperor is young today, and I deserve this family. You just have to let it go, and I'll take care of whatever you do. ”
What he left behind in his house were all arrogant soldiers who had followed him for decades, and the honor and disgrace of the whole family were tied to him. If this person really sat back and ignored Gao Qingyi's killing, and became a turtle with a shrunken head from then on, these people would have to scatter and then vote for the new lord in order to seek wealth and nobility. ”
Zong Han gritted his teeth and smiled, waved his hand, "Everything is arranged, do as I instruct." ”
A thousand households stepped forward, knelt down in front of him and asked, "If Wan Yanchang and the others resist, what should they do?" ”
Zong Han thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "If Zong Jun and Zong Pan dare to resist, they can be killed on the spot." After all, he is an elder of the clan, and it is inconvenient for me to execute him casually, leave him alive, and His Majesty will send him down in the future. ”
"Yes, just do as the marshal instructs."
The generals, along with all the guards, were all excited. Like these founding kings, which mansion is not a beautiful woman like a cloud of gold and silver? When killing, Zong Han counted on them to destroy their political enemies, so where would they rob **?
Zong Han looked at everyone's expressions, and naturally knew what they were thinking. When I thought that those people and myself were all brothers of the Wanyan family, I felt a little unbearable in my heart, but when I thought of yesterday's incident, and the lessons of the Han people in the past, in order to fight for power and profit, how can there be any fathers and sons?
He was ruthless, and finally waved his hand and ordered: "Go!" ”
"Oh......"
More than a thousand guards cheered, the main gate of the palace was opened, and the wolf-like guards all rushed out, and under the leadership of the generals, they rushed towards several Zongwang mansions in the city.
As soon as Zong Han started here, after a short time, the city was immediately on fire, and for a time there was a loud sound of killing, and the heavy footsteps and the shouts and scolding of the soldiers sounded together, and the people and officials in the city knew that there must be a big change, and the timid quietly got up, and lifted the doors and windows with sundries, and chanted Buddha in their mouths, and the bold ones quietly opened the windows and peeked out of the door.
Because of the previous deployment, the chaotic army of thousands of people soon surrounded several Zongwang Mansions, Wan Yanchang and others naturally had their own henchmen, but it happened suddenly, they drank until midnight in advance, and then scattered home, just lay down not long ago, the chaos in the city has been born, when you hear the noisy voices of people and horses outside the mansion, the fire has already shone into the gate of the mansion, and then get up and dress, the door of the mansion has been broken by fierce soldiers, countless people rushed in, and they killed every person, and the palace guards have already rested, and they have not yet held the weapons in their hands until they are fully clothed, and the weapons in their hands have not yet been steady, Even if someone is brave and can resist for a while, they can no longer form a large-scale resistance.
The kings of this chaos were caught off guard, Wanyan Zongjun was killed on the spot, all the good and bad people in the palace were killed, and the red-eyed soldiers were not enjoyable, so they simply came out of the palace and killed the residents of several streets along the border, regardless of the officials and the people, and swept away the money and beauties of the palace, and waited until dawn to stop.
Zong Pan saw that the opportunity was wrong, and immediately ordered the door of the house to be opened, and he dressed neatly to ask the other party's intentions, because of his calm attitude, he calmed down the soldiers who came, and ordered to bring money and rewards, and finally avoided a catastrophe. Wan Yanchang was only detained and guarded because he was ordered by Zong Han, and no one dared to harm him, and as for the other henchmen, they were either killed or taken into custody.
Shangjing City was not big, thousands of people in the city slashed and killed, the city was alarmed, there were naturally a lot of city defense troops in the city, but the incident happened suddenly, many palaces in charge of the main affairs were taken care of, Zong Jun, who commanded the command of the Shangjing army, was killed, how could anyone give the city defense army an order to quell the chaos, and when the day dawned the overall situation had been decided, Zong Han went to the palace with a high spirit, and told the emperor Chen that he was wronged and had to do it, and ordered Zong Pan and Wan Yanchang and others to hand over to the joint thorn to fall.
