Chapter 35: The Sima Fan Rebellion in Jingzhou (2)
Jia Hou nodded with a smile, and wanted to chat with Sima Ting a few words, but Zhang Hua, who was next to him, suddenly said loudly: "Niangniang, since Prince Ting has also arrived." Then let's first understand the things in Jingzhou. ”
Empress Jia was interrupted by Zhang Hua, and there was no sign of anger, just glanced at Zhang Hua with a smile and nodded slightly. For the only Wang Zuozhi talent in the court who can be of great use, Jia Houke can also be regarded as respectful. After Zhang Hua entered the court, he saw that Empress Jia's henchmen were rampant, and he once wrote "Female History" to satirize Empress Jia. Dong Meng saw it and angrily told Empress Jia to kill Zhang Hua, but the cruel Empress Jia just laughed it off. Thinking about it, she also knows that Zhang Hua is still indispensable in the court, otherwise, wouldn't all the trivial matters of the Great Jin Dynasty have to be decided by Empress Jia herself? In this way, she still wants to enjoy life!
Seeing Jia, he nodded, and Zhang Hua said, "Shi Thorn History, first tell me how the situation in Jingzhou is now?" ”
Sima Ting raised his eyebrows, and secretly said that the big fat man was really Shi Chong. Although his appearance is not good, and it is a little ugly, this Shi Chong was able to successfully enter Jingzhou as a assassin for seven years, and now he has returned to Luoyang safely, so he must have some ability.
Shi Chong arched his hand to Zhang Hua and said, "Niangniang, Master Zhang." The situation in Jingzhou is a little bad now! Sima Fan had a total of 120,000 elite troops, 40,000 gathered around Xiangyang City, 20,000 soldiers and horses were transferred to various arteries in Jingzhou, and the remaining 60,000 were gathered in Luyang City, with a great tendency to attack Luoyang in the north.
All parts of Jingzhou are completely under the control of Sima Fan, and there are three major granaries in Xiangyang City, with a large amount of grain and grass in reserve, not Shi Chong's exaggeration, these grain and grass can be used to fight for two years by 120,000 Chu troops! Moreover, Jingzhou has been in good weather in recent years, and a large amount of grain can be requisitioned at any time. The minister was lying in Jingzhou and tasted courage and endured humiliation......"
Everyone listened to Shi Chong's talk about how he fought wits and courage with Sima Fan and how to divide Sima Fan's forces, but he was helpless that he was just an outsider in Jingzhou, and the Chu Wangfu had been running Jingzhou for decades, and his foundation was deep, so he had no choice but to serve the country, but he had no power to return to heaven!
When Shi Chong finally finished telling the history of his blood and tears in Jingzhou with a long sigh, Zhao Wanglun suddenly stared at Shi Chong viciously, and said coldly: "The history of stone thorns, the history of stone thorns is really the pillar of the country, the capable minister of the society!" ”
Shi Chong saw Zhao Wanglun's evil face, how could he have a trace of praise for himself, he was shocked, he didn't know where he offended Zhao Wanglun, and hurriedly said: "Lord Zhao is laughing." Shi Chong just did his duty. ”
Zhao Wanglun said coldly: "Did you just do your duty?" I heard that you had a good time with Sima Fan in Jingzhou! How can there be a little sour! Hum! As the assassin of Jingzhou and the general of Zhennan, not only did you not share the worries of the imperial court, but you even sent guards to pretend to be robbers to loot past caravans and kill people and goods! Hey - it seems that the history of stone thorns has made a windfall over the years! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at Shi Chong with a smile. Shi Chong was so frightened that he sweated, "plopped" and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Empress Jia, and said, "Niangniang." Zhao Wangye's words are really wronged. The minister is a wealthy family, so why do such things? Mother's clear check! ”
Seeing Shi Chong's panicked face, Empress Jia frowned and said, "King Zhao, I don't know if there is any evidence?" ”
Zhao Wanglun smiled and said, "Naturally, there is." Last year, this king's convoy passed through Jingzhou, but he was robbed and lost a lot of precious treasures, and his whereabouts have been lost. Unexpectedly, this time it appeared on the gift list dedicated to this king by the history of stone thorns. It's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! ”
Shi Chong let out a sad cry and sat down on the ground, at a loss.
Sima Ting shook his head on the side, this Shi Chong is really a superb! It's really self-defeating to do such a ridiculous thing!
Jia Hou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud. kicked Shi Chong's fat face, and said, "Shi Chong, Shi Chong! You're a ...... Ha ha! ”
Zhao Wanglun sneered and said coldly: "Niangniang, this is not my personal vendetta, it's just that Shi Chong is too much!" The robbery of the road was also robbed, and a large amount of property was even distributed to Sima Fan! Hehe, come to think of it, Sima Fan's ability to support such a huge army is inseparable from the financial support of the Stone Thorn History! ”
When Shi Chong saw Zhao Wanglun's big hat buttoned down, he wanted his own life! Although he did do such things in order to befriend Sima Fan, but Sima Fan is now in rebellion, and this thing is enough to kill him several times! hurriedly grabbed the ground with his head, and cried and begged in front of Empress Jia: "Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life." Shi Chong was confused for a while! ! ”
Empress Jia saw Shi Chong's pitiful appearance, and remembered the three carts of gold, silver and jewelry offered by Shi Chongjin in the middle palace, and gradually suppressed her smile. If you don't look at Shi Chong's face, you also want to look at the face of money! What's more, although this Shi Chong is a bit absurd, he is still very well-behaved, and he often offers some rare treasures. What's more, Sima Fan's rebellion was not Shi Chong's fault.
Empress Jia glanced at Zhao Wanglun, who was angry, and said with a smile: "King Zhao, although Shi Chong did a very ridiculous job this time, he is not guilty of death. Why don't you make a list of documents and let Shi Chong compensate you tenfold? For the sake of the face of the palace, don't embarrass Shi Chong anymore? As for collusion with Sima Fan...... Do you think Shi Chong dares him? ”
Zhao Wanglun saw that Jia Hou intended to keep Shi Chong, and he also accepted it when he saw it, and said: "Since Niangniang has said so, Sima Fan should listen to Niangniang." ”
Shi Chong saw that Zhao Wanglun was relieved, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Xie Niangniang, thank Zhao Wangye." ”
Zhao Wanglun snorted coldly and looked at Shi Chong with disdain. Although he is shameless, he does not hide his contempt for this Shi Chong, who is even more shameless than him, and he has already begun to think about how to slaughter Shi Chong fiercely. After all, there is a lot of oil and water on the God of Wealth in the Great Jin!
Zhang Hua watched coldly from the sidelines, and when he saw that this farce had finally ended, he suddenly made a face, pointed to the outside of the hall and said angrily: "Shi Chong, you get out of here!" ”
Shi Chong was stunned, but it was really as Zhang Hua said, he rolled on the ground and walked out of the hall, which made Jia Hou laugh again.
Zhang Hua looked at Shi Chong in a daze and really rolled out, sighed, shook his head and said, "According to Shi Chong's words, Sima Fan may attack Sizhou at any time. We should send troops now! If this evil fire is not extinguished, I don't know how many vassal kings will follow suit, and then it will really not be a country! It's just that the Jingzhou Army is known as the first tiger and wolf division of the Great Jin Dynasty. I'm afraid the forbidden army is too strong! ”
For the combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou army, Jia Hou was most impressed. The Su Guard Army is known as the strongest forbidden army, and it is also defeated in front of the Jingzhou army, if the forbidden army is now transferred south to take the initiative to attack Jingzhou, I am afraid that it will be defeated by the Jingzhou army. Empress Jia frowned and said, "Lord Zhang is reasonable. It was still somewhat difficult to deal with the Jingzhou army with the forbidden army alone. Why don't you transfer back the 30,000 Chu troops of the general of the Zhou Division in Northern Xinjiang and deal with the Jingzhou army together? ”
Sima Ting was shocked in his heart, and secretly said that Empress Jia was really vicious, and he actually wanted to use the Jingzhou Army to fight the Jingzhou Army!
Zhang Hua immediately said loudly: "No! At present, the northern Xinjiang is extremely unstable, and there are frictions between the Great Jin and the Xianbei in the west from time to time, and large-scale wars may break out at any time. If they are transferred back to Zhou and their 30,000 Chu troops at this moment, the frontier is only afraid of instability. ”
Jia Hou said annoyedly: "Then how should this be?" As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Wanglun and Dong Yi, who had been silent on the side, and said, "King Zhao, Dong Yi." Both of you are commanders of the forbidden army, I don't know what the plan is? ”
Zhao Wanglun and Dong Yi have been silent, just because they know that they are really more than willing to do this, but they didn't expect Empress Jia to call their names directly, and now they can't pretend to be dumb anymore. Zhao Wanglun squeaked for a long time, and finally arched his hand and said: "Sima Lun, everything is up to the mother." ”
Dong Yi was also busy: "Dong Yi, everything is up to the mother." ”
After Jia Hou heard this, she almost died of anger. These two bastards! Hongu asked them about it, and he kicked the ball back. However, Jia Hou was angry, but after all, both of them were loyal to themselves, and they also knew how many catties and taels they had. I had to snort coldly, turned my head and said to Sima Ting: "Prince Ting, you are the most familiar with Sima Fan in Luoyang City, I don't know what Prince Ting's suggestion?" ”
