Chapter 118: The Red Mansion is Burned

Tian Ergeng covered his knees and muttered, "Yang Yuan...... He lied to me. … said that he would take the brocade guards into the palace, how is this possible? ”

Jinyiwei is the existence of protecting the emperor, even if Tian Ergeng is the commander, he has no ability to control them to rebel. In the past ten days, the eunuch party has planned these things, and Jinyiwei has stayed out of the matter. Yang Yu didn't come, because he told Tian Ergeng that he would let Jinyiwei enter the palace, as long as those of them could support it for a while, it would be a success, and if Chongzhen was killed during this period, it would be better.

At this moment, a soldier outside the door hurriedly ran in and shouted, "Your Majesty, it's not a good thing!" The Jinyi guard led the troops to break into the palace and kill people when they saw them. Our 3,000 men will be overwhelmed! ”

What? How is this possible? Did they fall for the life and death talisman or did they eat the Three Corpses Brain Divine Pill? How could you listen to Yang Yuan's attack on the palace? Hearing the news, Ao Bai was also stunned.

Tian Ergeng had a glimmer of hope in his heart, his legs could no longer move, and he only hoped that Yang Yu could bring people in as soon as possible and kill them to avenge him.

Chongzhen said angrily: "Jinyiwei is going to rebel? What the hell is going on? Who told me what was going on? ”

The soldier knelt in front of Chongzhen and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the Jinyi Guards did not rebel, they also came up to save the emperor, but they misunderstood...... The villain is under the command of the king of Liaodong...... Worried about the emperor's safety, he attacked from the main gate without receiving the code, and the eunuchs have been annihilated by us. But when the Jinyi guard came, he thought that we were the subordinates of the eunuchs, so he rushed into the palace and killed people indiscriminately...... Emperor...... Please also ask you to leave the palace and ask them to stop. ”

False schemes! Ao Bai immediately understood that the 3,000 people who had been transferred from the border pass were on standby outside the city and hid their whereabouts. Tian Ergeng didn't dare to use Jinyiwei's people, this matter would also be kept secret, and now three thousand people suddenly appeared to attack the palace during the state banquet, Jinyiwei didn't know the truth, and it was easy to be provoked. It's so dark, who knows whom? If the emperor doesn't go out to stop it, I'm afraid that this battle will have to be fought until one side is dead.

Ao Bai hurriedly said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, now you are the only one who goes out of the palace to clarify this matter and let them stop." Please do it as soon as possible, otherwise your own people will only cause unnecessary casualties if you hit your own people. ”

Chongzhen kept trembling, looking at the stumps and dead bodies all over the palace hall, his legs were a little weak.

Ao Bai had previously proposed that ambushing masters in the palace to solve the eunuch party could prevent the situation from expanding, and it was best not to use troops. Of course, Ao Bai said this to take this opportunity to eradicate dissidents, and now that his crow's mouth was right, Chongzhen only felt that he was far-sighted, and had expected that this might happen. It's a pity that he insisted on listening to the advice of the Donglin Party and let these 3,000 people return to Beijing.

Not long after he ascended the throne, there was a major event of rebellion, and today is a dinner party to celebrate his accession to the throne, so Chongzhen is about to die of anger. He didn't understand, why did his own people beat his own people?

Because of the grabbing of credit. The Donglin Party didn't want Ao Bai and Su Meng'er to take all the credit, and they thought it was good to send five hundred people into the palace, but as soon as the eunuchs started, they immediately couldn't hold their breath and immediately sent troops. The eunuchs were put in by the inside, and they didn't make much noise, but as soon as they attacked, it looked like they were attacking the palace to outsiders.

Yang Yu had already contacted the 2,000 men and horses of the Jinyi Guard stationed in Beijing, and he said in righteous words that the eunuch party had secretly mobilized thousands of people, saying that the escort troops were transferred back from the border pass for the purpose of besieging the palace. The emperor ordered Tian Ergeng's gold medal spies to endure humiliation for several years, just waiting for this day. >

As soon as these people heard about the troops who had been transferred back from outside the customs to escort them, they thought it was funny. There are thousands of them in brocade guards, and they are still the emperor's personal soldiers, and they are transferred from outside Beijing to escort them. It must be a eunuch. Jinyiwei was ready to go, and as soon as he received the news, thousands of people were besieging the palace, and immediately Fan Yuliang, who was at the same level as him, led troops to the palace to save the emperor.

Yang Yu didn't go with him, and even the "gold medal given by the emperor" was lost to Fan Yuliang, and the reason he found was also high-sounding.

"My little brother has been undercover for many years, and the emperor will not treat me badly. Brother Fan, you should take this credit. Pick up the gold medal. ”

Lao Fan also wanted to be promoted, took the gold medal, and said movingly: "Big brother...... Let's not say anything, fate, thank you! ”

A group of brocade guards rushed to the palace.

The 3,000 people of the Donglin Party had just entered the palace and controlled the situation, and before they had time to rejoice, Jinyiwei rushed in. Of course, they said that they were the emperor's people, but the Jinyi guards had already heard Yang Yu say these words a hundred times. How can you trust them? The 3,000 people who came from the border also suspected that Jinyiwei was a eunuch, because Tian Ergeng was the commander, and these people were brought by Yang Yuan. The two groups of people didn't believe anyone, and they fought to the death at the gate of the palace. On the night of the murderous night when the moon was dark and the wind was high, a group of people went crazy.

It wasn't until Chongzhen appeared under the escort of Ao Bai and others that this senseless civil war was quelled.

After counting the number of casualties, Chongzhen sent all the doctors in the palace to treat the wounded.

Ao Bai found a brocade guard and asked, "What about Yang Yuan?" Did he bring you here? ”

The brocade guard now knew that he had been fooled, killed his own people, and cried: "It was Master Fan who brought us here, and he is dead." Yang Yu said that let Master Fan lead people to rescue and make meritorious contributions, and he went to Tianling Mountain to do something......"

Went to Tianling Mountain? He wants to do something, it's definitely not a little bit. After the battle tonight, Ao Bai instinctively thought of this person and his heart was furious.

Ao Bai has never seen such a powerful serial scheme. This madman doesn't help anyone at all, he wants to completely disrupt the court. Thousands of people have already died tonight, what good is he doing now in Tianling Mountain? Ao Bai only thought of one possibility, the worst possible - arson.

The Red Mansion is an important stronghold of Jinyiwei, not because of the large number of people, but because of the large number of materials, so it was built there. It is usually very difficult to attack, but Yang Yuan's identity is still Jinyiwei, if he goes up the mountain like this......

Ao Bai shouted: "Jinyi Wei took out five hundred people to obey the order. Immediately follow me on a fast horse and rush to Tianling Mountain, and the others will protect the safety of the emperor and the ministers. ”

Chongzhen Qi said: "What are you doing in Tianling Mountain at this time?" ”

Ao Bai hurriedly said: "Go and put out the fire." I'm sure Yang Yu will set fire to the Red Mansion in Tianling Mountain! ”

Everyone present was stunned. Jin Yiwei knew how important the Red Mansion of Tianling Mountain was to this stop, and immediately hundreds of people lined up, looking for the remaining horses, and set off with Aobai. Su Meng'er, Liang Bin and others were also together.

Ao Bai felt that his crow's mouth would be right again, and if it was him, he would choose to set fire. In the history he knew, Jinyiwei had always been the most powerful spy agency of the Ming Dynasty, and almost nothing escaped their eyes. But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were people's uprisings everywhere, but the Ming Dynasty always did not do much to collect intelligence, and the powerful organization of Jinyiwei seemed to have disappeared suddenly. This incident is rarely mentioned in the history books. And the destruction of the Red Mansion in Tianling Mountain may be the reason.

Before they left, Yang Yu had already come to the top of the mountain alone. He held a torch and looked down the mountain, feeling a little comfortable with the evening breeze on his face.

The two remaining soldiers of the brocade guard saw him and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"You don't know me anymore, I'm Yang Yuan." Yang Yu showed his token. smiled: "How many brothers are there in the building now, let's gather them, the emperor has an order to ask us to do one thing." ”

"Hehe, it turned out to be Lord Yang." The two brocade guards immediately obeyed the order to find someone, and gathered all the eighty-two people who stayed in the Red Mansion.

Yang Yu said to them like a good leader who was considerate of his subordinates: "Brothers, I know that the time is late, and everyone is very tired, but the above has explained it, and this matter must be done now." When I'm done, I'll invite you to the tavern tomorrow for dinner. ”

Everyone didn't know that the angel in front of them was actually degenerate, and a few felt that he had no shelf, and responded loudly: "It is right to do things for Daming, please command, my lord." ”

Yang Yu smiled and asked, "Very good, how much fire oil do we have in the warehouse now?" They all moved out, piled up at the door, and after a while, brothers will come up the mountain to fetch it, and the court will use it. ”

One of them asked, "Lord Yang, didn't you say that there was a big event when you asked the brothers to be on standby?" How's going on at the palace now? ”

Yang Yu said with a smile: "The emperor has his own heavenly appearance, and the eunuch party wants to rebel, but the situation has been controlled by us." The use of fire oil is a secret order from above, and it is estimated that it is used to deal with people, you don't talk nonsense, you have delayed time, don't you want your head? Let's hurry up and get to work, finish early and rest early. ”

Everyone did not suspect that there was a fake, and they began to act one after another, moving all the fire oil in the warehouse to the main entrance of the Red Mansion.

An old brocade guard felt that this order was strange and asked, "Lord Yang, these are all flammable materials, it's not good to put them at the door, why don't you let the brothers work hard and carry them to the open space?" ”

Yang Yu laughed and said, "It's just right to pile it in that place, if I move to an open space, I will have to work hard." If this fire burns, it will be really difficult for the gods to save it. ”

Another brocade guard beside him asked, "What did you say, my lord?" ”

"Oh, did I say it?" Yang Yu smiled: "Okay then...... In fact, I heard the news that there may be thieves attacking the mountain at any time tonight, which is not good for this red mansion. You must be careful, this thief may be anyone, such as ...... I! ”

After speaking, Yang Yu made a move, clicked twice, and broke the necks of the two brocade guards beside him, and the other party couldn't even scream. Then Yang Yu pulled out an embroidered spring knife from the other party's waist, still with a smile on his face. He said loudly: "Everyone's hard work. You must be very tired after moving such wine? Rest in peace. ”

"What are you doing, my lord?" One of the people standing in the doorway exclaimed.

Yang Yu threw the embroidered spring knife at the man, shattering the jar he was holding, and then he threw the torch in his hand as well. As soon as the fire touched the oil, it burned violently, forming a wall of fire in the doorway. More than half of the people were still carrying fire oil in the building, and they were suddenly trapped in the building.

The people outside rushed over with their knives drawn, shouting, "Why are you doing this? ”

"Because I like it, and as for why I like it, go ask the Buddha! Hahaha......" Yang Yu laughed wildly, picked up another embroidered spring knife, and rushed towards the rest of the people......

When Ao Bai and the others were far away, they saw the fire that soared to the sky.

He sighed in his heart, it was late.

Madness is just one person, and it turns Da Ming upside down. The strength of the imperial court that will be burned by this fire will be greatly reduced. Without identity certificates, many of the out-of-house brocade guards are going to become black households. In this way, at least one-third of the brocade guards in the country will be subtracted.

The more Ao Bai thought about it, the more frightened he felt, he just calculated the Wenchen group in the court. Crazy counts all the officials in the capital. The crazy soldiers did not rely on martial arts, just used tactics, so that the Ming army lost tens of thousands of people, and the information collected by Jinyiwei was burned, and the impact was far more than that, and whatever you want to investigate in the future will have to start again. The Daming border pass has consumed a lot of military salaries, which has made the treasury unbearable, if you spend more money to rebuild the Jinyi Guard, how much silver will it take? The consequence of this fire is almost to make the Ming Dynasty exist in name only!

Although this person's real name is Zhang Yan, the title of "crazy" is undoubtedly more suitable for him. This kind of serial scheme, Ao Bai can't think of it. Of course, this matter is actually beneficial to him. After all, he was going to rebel. Although it is convenient, it is also risky. If a spy organization like Jinyiwei can't be used for its own use, it's not bad to destroy it.

A large number of Jinyi guards hurriedly went up the mountain to put out the fire. But the house is on the hill and there is no water source nearby, so it is so easy to save? The madness is gone. An hour later, Ao Bai knew that there was no hope of finding him again, so he returned to the palace with Su Meng'er and the others to resume his life.

Chongzhen's face was ugly, and when he saw him coming back, he asked softly: "Huang Peng, I heard that the Red Mansion has been set on fire by Yang Yuan, let me ask you...... Did I win this battle, or did I lose it? ”

Ao Bai didn't know how to answer. After Zhu Youzhen took office, he behaved too positively, and if he did not keep close contact with the Donglin Party, the Eunuch Party might not be forced to rebel. There is no such thing as today. If you are too anxious, your heart is good, but it may have the opposite effect.

Chongzhen sighed: "You don't think it's easy to answer, do you?" Today, I have learned one thing, there are too few people in the DPRK and China who can trust. You and Liang Bin, Su Meng'er, and Hari Chagai have meritorious service in escorting...... I'm so tired today, I want to be quiet, and I'll reward you when I'm ready. ”

They all took their leave, and went home.

As soon as Ao Bai arrived home, everyone waited in the hall and said, "You have finally returned." When we heard that many people were attacking the palace, we were all worried to death. If it weren't for someone to inform you that you were okay, we would all want to find someone to find you. ”

"Oh? Someone came to inform me that I was okay? Who is it? ”

Yao Qianyu smiled and said, "It's your very interesting friend, Brother Yang." He said that he had been busy all night and had not had time to eat, so I asked Qibu to take him to the backyard for a barbecue. ”

The cold sweat on Aobai's head fell......
