The worship ceremony is very hasty, and everything can only be simplified;

But fortunately, there are enough people, and they all have a lot of weight;

Some people cried, some people were sad, and everyone did their best to "reveal their true feelings" in a short period of time.

Plainly

Yingdu was once the national capital and a big city, its influence and coverage are also very large, and the population is also large.

even

Marquis Zheng also saw that some officials who were obviously Yan people also walked down with tears.

You guys

What are you crying about?

When they passed in front of Pingxi Hou, they came to their senses and seemed to have a momentary itch before, and wanted to go up to have a discussion with their colleagues in Jindi, forgetting their position.

But no matter what,

This worship was completed.

Pingxihou's team left Shishan and headed for Yingdu, which was the real destination of his trip.

Coming to Shishan to take a walk around, it was originally for the purpose of beating, and the target of the beating was naturally Prince Cheng's Mansion, to be precise, it was represented by Prince Cheng's Mansion or that all the forces that wanted to push Prince Cheng's Mansion out in the future as a representative.

The establishment of a Hou Mansion was originally to suppress a strong enemy, which was the foundation of the Great Yan Army's meritorious marquis.

The Hou Mansion in the north of Zhenbei suppressed the desert, and the former Hou Mansion in Jingnan deterred the Qianguo, and now he is the savage in the north, the Chu State in the south, plus the Yingdu in the west, that is, the Jin people.

Zheng Fan didn't know what the blind man and Gou Moli were thinking, but the two of them, many times, were actually too radical.

In Zheng Fan's own opinion,

Emperor Yan didn't die in a day, he had to play the role of the Marquis of Yan Pingxi, before Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he was also a great Han Zhongliang, no matter how anxious he was, he didn't have to be in a hurry.

When the team entered the outskirts of Yingdu, a group of cavalry rode up.

Yingdu Simen Battalion, two Yan armies and two Jin armies were stationed respectively, the number of Jin troops was more than that of Yan army, but the rank of the main general was not as high as that of Yan army.

This is also the fundamental reason why Gong Wang wants to hug the thighs of Pingxi Houfu, otherwise, there will inevitably be a ceiling above his head, and even, it will be easy to enter the end of being suspicious of the Yan people to the end.

"The East Gate Battalion Commander ........."

"The Lord of the West Gate Battalion ........."

"South Gate ............"

"North Gate ............"

"See Pingxi Hou Ye, Hou Ye Fukang !!"

I think that at the beginning, Zheng Fan, who was still Uncle Hirano, could only rely on the false command of King Jingnan to mobilize the soldiers and horses here into the city, but now, in fact, there is no need for that.

Unless the court let go of the wind in advance, or made some arrangements, or if he and the court showed a posture of disagreement;

otherwise

Normally,

For example, now,

He said a word, no longer need to rely on the order of King Jingnan, he can directly mobilize the large battalions outside the city to obey his orders and enter the city.

The military system at the bottom of the Yan State is very chaotic;

But in fact, the top-level military system of Yan State can be described as even more chaotic.

In the past few years, because of the prestige of the two marquis's military prestige, even the Zhenbei Army and the Jingnan Army, the two main Yan field cavalry, can be deployed to each other, and as for the local garrisons, county soldiers, etc., they are even more used at any time, and the Yan Emperor and the imperial court are very convenient for this.

As the saying goes, the predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the shade, and now as a marquis of military merit, Marquis Zheng can naturally enjoy the privileges in this regard.

Well, there is a country that subdivides all this very well, from top to bottom, all of them are in order, and that is Daqian.

Marquis Zheng lifted the curtain of the carriage,

Looking at the generals kneeling on the ground in front of them,

Road:

"You've worked hard."

"Where the duty lies, don't dare to say bitterness!"

"Where the duty lies, don't dare to say bitterness!"

"In these days that Ben Hou is in Yingdu, I hope that you and your subordinates will be full of energy."

"The last general obeys!"

"The last general obeys!"

Marquis Zheng withdrew the curtain, and the team entered Yingdu.

After entering the Ying Capital, the team of Prince Cheng's Mansion, which had been ordered to close the door by Marquis Zheng, returned directly to the palace.

Tonight, it is destined that there will be many people who grit their teeth in the quilt, scolding the Yan people for being arrogant and domineering, and there will be many people who are full of tears for the current treatment of the deceased master; There will be many people who express their feelings of worrying about the past and present of their homeland.

but

Completely useless.

Marquis Zheng didn't go to see the five princes first, and his team went directly to the Taishou Mansion since he entered the city.

Once, Zheng Fan and Mao Ming had a conflict, but later, as the misunderstanding deepened repeatedly, Mao Ming suddenly became very good to Zheng Fan.

However, regardless of the relationship between the two sides, Mao Mingcai is indeed a cadre, and this official is still a big official.

Theoretically speaking, Mao Mingcai is the real feudal official, Zheng Fan can only be a special product under special national conditions, and in the Chengping period, it is destined to be attacked by the central government.

The pro-soldiers entered the defense in advance, after all, Yingdu had just had a major assassination case not long ago, and at this time, the security issue must not be taken lightly.

It was Mao Mingcai's wife and daughter who came to greet Zheng Fan.

When the male host is unable to entertain guests, it is common sense for people in the inner house to come out to entertain guests, and the identity of Marquis Zheng is here, and the etiquette must not be sloppy.

Marquis Zheng sat down in the living room, and Mao Mingcai's daughter Mao Qingqing personally served tea to Zheng Fan.

Zheng Fan noticed the other party's hairstyle, obviously he was already a wife, and at this age, he didn't look like he was out of the cabinet, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't appear here.

Of course, this situation is also easy to guess, it should be Xu Guo's family, but there was a problem with the husband's family, so he returned to his parents' house.

The people of Yandi are rough, not as many rules as dry and Chudi, and they are much more tolerant of widows.

When the wife and daughter go down,

Gou Moli stepped forward and whispered to Marquis Zheng:

"Master Hou, Mao Qingqing once married into a gate valve family, and reconciled with her husband in front of Yan Huangma's door valve."

Marquis Zheng nodded.

Mao Ming is a close minister of Emperor Yan, and he once served as a secretary of the Ministry of War, so he should have predicted Emperor Yan's plan in advance, so he let his daughter choose to reconcile with her husband's family.

It's just that in this way, although he kept his daughter, but if he wants to marry again, it will be difficult, it is true that the people of Yandi are rough, but this kind of behavior of flying in advance when the catastrophe comes, it is really difficult to find the right pick-up man.

It's a pity for such a plump body,

Plus the right amount of depression in the center of the eyebrows.

Then

Mao Mingcai's wife, Xu, came out again and saluted Marquis Zheng:

"Master Hou, please."

Mao Ming was able to meet the guests, proving that he was not yet dying.

Sun Youdao's first letter to himself and the official letter to himself from Prince Cheng's Mansion only said that the five princes were dying, which shows that before that, Mao Mingcai's safety should have been confirmed.

Walking into the bedroom, the smell of medicine is very strong.

Mao Mingcai leaned on the pillow and watched Zheng Fan walk in.

"Master Hou is here, old man, he will be at ease."

"Don't talk like that, I've just arrived, you've just left;

Isn't it just pouring dirty water on me? ”

"Huh." Mao Mingcai smiled.

Marquis Zheng sat down on the chair next to him.

"Where is the fifth prince, has the Hou Ye gone?"

Zheng Fan shook his head.

Mao Mingcai was very moved.

Because of continuous misunderstandings, he has a particularly good impression of Zheng Fan, and at this time, he is naturally even more useful.

He actually didn't expect that Marquis Zheng didn't care much about the life and death of the fifth child.

The prince of this species,

After you destroy one with your own hands,

It's really hard to take it anymore.

"How's your body?" Zheng Fan asked.

"Actually, I didn't drink much wine, because my body was not very comfortable at that time, so I dipped my lips a little, which meant it; I'm ashamed to say that I was so provoked by the events of that night that I was bedridden. ”

Zheng Fan saw the official documents piled up in the bedroom, obviously, when Mao Ming was in bed, he didn't forget to work.

"Master Hou, don't think that I'm taking advantage of my illness to get out........."

"You're getting out of your illness right now to really start the fire, I understand."

Mao Mingcai nodded, it was a sin that he couldn't come forward to preside over the overall situation at this time.

Here, it is Yingdu again, the old territory of the Jin people, and the new territory of the Yan people, where can you slack off here.

"I have already handed the fold to the imperial court, and I estimate that the new Taishou is coming."

"How can it be so fast."

First, the road is far away, and second, Yingdu is too guarded, and the stakes are significant, and it is by no means just anyone who can replace him.

Yandi is okay, Jindi is here, too guarded, we must be cautious, otherwise the land that has been laid down with great difficulty will be at risk of overturning.

"Actually, after the war in Chu, the imperial court intended to transfer me back to Beijing, and I also want to go back to Beijing to see Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Marquis Zheng's eyes sank slightly.

This is

Is it really time to change people?

Marquis Zheng can look down on Prince Cheng's mansion, firstly, because Mao Ming is here, and the relationship is good;

Although the people around Marquis Zheng can clearly feel his "Pingxi Marquis Heart",

But outside, in the outside world, in the specific environment of Yan Kingdom,

and Li Liang Tingtian's mirrorless pearl in front,

In fact, his Zheng Fan's reputation has always been very good, and he is really not the kind of seed who wants to rebel.

After all, everyone's attention is on the King of Zhenbei and the King of Jingnan and the matter of seizing the heir, and he Pingxi Hou rebelled, and he has not yet taken the turn of the small blackboard of the issue.

Therefore, Mao Mingcai did not question Zheng Fan's change of perception.

Another nail in Yingdu is Sun Youdao, and Sun Taifu is also a person on his own boat. Love to nibble on books

Here, if the position of Taishou is changed, won't he have to fight again?

It's quite troublesome to engage in such a relationship.

"The imperial court also asked my opinion, and after that, there was also an explanation from the imperial court........."

"Oh?"

Are the candidates confirmed?

"The chief soldier and prefect of Nanwangcheng, Xu Wenzu, will move to Yingdu and take my place to be the Taishou of Yingdu, speaking of which, Xu Wenzu, Hou Ye should know you?"

Xu Chubby!

"Hehehe........."

Marquis Zheng laughed,

At this moment,

He didn't care about the gains and losses, nor did he think about the impact Xu Wenzu's arrival would have on his Hou Mansion;

He just had a chubby figure in his mind,

I just want to laugh.

When Mao Ming saw this, he also laughed.

In his opinion, there may be times when the Marquis of Pingxi will be impatient and impersonal, but he is really dedicated to the public and sacrificing himself for the country.

This is a kind of simple temperament.

"Master Hou, I think that Xu Wenzu will only do better than the old man if he is too guarded by this Yingdu."

"Well, I think so, too."

"........." Mao Mingcai.

Mao Mingcai coughed.

"Yo, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Marquis Zheng got up and patted his back with help.

In fact, if someone is interested in checking the resume of Marquis Zheng, they will definitely be able to find out the relationship between Marquis Zheng and Xu Wenzu;

When Marquis Zheng was a lieutenant in Hutou City, Xu Wenzu was the envoy of Beifeng County, and the yamen was in Hutou City;

When Marquis Zheng was a garrison in Cuiliu Fort, Xu Wenzu was a general soldier in Nanwang City;

It's just that later Marquis Zheng followed King Jingnan into Jin, and Xu Wenzu still stayed in Yinlang County.

Marquis Zheng has been on the rise in recent years, but he Xu Wenzu is actually rising step by step.

Four years ago, the Three Kingdoms melee began,

Xu Wenzu gathered more than 10 local troops with complex composition in Nanwangcheng, and forcibly blocked the temptation of the soldiers and horses on the three sides of the Qianguo to the north;

Not long ago,

The eldest prince beheaded Zhong Wenmian and was made a marquis, and Xu Wenzu was actually rewarded for his meritorious service.

Moreover, although Xu Fatpang has been a chief soldier, he is actually a civil official, and now he has replaced Mao Mingcai and Ren Yingdu is too guarded, that is, a real feudal official, and when he returns to the dynasty in the future, it must be a book or other bigwigs to make room for him to sit.

Most importantly,

Xu Wenzu's ability and means are all first-class, so I don't have to say it.

"I hope that after Xu Wenzu takes over my position, he can work with you to completely stabilize this half of the Jin land, and this half of the land will be stabilized, and the entire land of the Three Jin Dynasty, it will not be chaotic."

Because the other half is sandwiched between Jindong and Yanguo, no matter how much trouble he makes, he will have to be pressed in the end.

"Well, I haven't seen him in a few years."

"Come to think of it, the relationship between Hou Ye and Xu Wenzu is excellent."

Zheng Fan nodded.

"Therefore, the imperial court treats Hou Ye well, it stands to reason that on the side of Yingdu, you should choose someone who is not dealing with Hou Ye to be the Taishou in order to play a role in containing each other."

This is considered to be a heartfelt word, because this is very taboo.

Zheng Fan shook his head and said disapprovingly: "The land of Yan and Jin, although it is vast, but compared to Qianchu, it is actually relatively barren.

Before the time when the horse is released on Nanshan, where is the effort to consume these. ”

"Master Hou's heart is open, and he admires it."

"You have a good rest, this time, I'll help you set up this field, and when Xu Wenzu comes, I'll see you off again, anyway, I have to greet him."

Even if Xu Wenzu comes, it will take a while to hand over to Mao Ming.

It is reasonable to be reasonable, Marquis Zheng will come again.

Of course, if Xu Fatpang came with the enthusiasm of crushing the two horses to death after being arrested in the desert, it would be impossible to say that the two trips would be combined.

Anyway, there will be a post station along the way, so you can check it later, and then calculate whether Xu Wenzu is on the road or not.

"Then there is Hou Ye, there are many matters in the city, Hou Ye, please think about it."

"Where did you get something, it's just An Yi's reassurance, I read the file of the City Patrol Division on the way here, and I guess I can't find anything."

For the man who gave the wine, the man of the winery, and the man who gave the slip to the wine, died. The group of assassins who assassinated the five princes also committed suicide by poisoning themselves after stabbing the knife.

This is the most primitive but often the most effective way to deal with the aftermath.

Zheng Houye didn't think how powerful he could be in investigating the case, so he gave up the idea of investigating the case very early.

"If the situation is stabilized, those small plans will not succeed." Mao Mingcai sighed, "Now, I really understand that the establishment of the country by Dayan still relies on people like you, Master Hou." ”

"You're polite, achieve each other, support each other, you lie down, I'll go see the five princes."

"Okay, there you go."

………

When Marquis Zheng left the Taishou Mansion, he went directly to the house where the five princes lived.

The carriage came to the door of the house,

The guards immediately rushed in, and cleared their own marquis first, just like they had done in the Taishou Mansion before.

However, there was a confrontation inside, and even after the guards showed their waist cards, the people inside still did not retreat.

Because at this time, it was the people of the secret spy department who protected the safety of the five princes.

However, when Marquis Zheng stepped out of the carriage and entered the gate of the house, the leader of the secret spy department immediately knelt down, and at the same time ordered his subordinates to withdraw their swords.

If you don't see Allah and don't take the sword, it's also a sense of responsibility.

Marquis Zheng followed Chen Daxia and the Sword Saint and walked into the back house.

The man at the helm looked at the soldiers of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, especially the clothes and swords on their bodies, and after the guards also entered the back house with the Hou Ye, he couldn't help but smack his lips and whispered to a crony beside him:

"Straight lady thief, how come the guards around Hou Ye are more like secret spies than us."

It's a pity that Hou Ye Zheng didn't hear this evaluation, otherwise he would be very happy,

At the same time, praise the helm: discerning.

The maid opened the door and let Marquis Zheng enter the bedroom.

The fifth prince was lying unconscious on the bed, pale and motionless.

"All out."

Marquis Zheng ordered.

The eunuchs and maidservants who were waiting inside glanced at each other, and finally did not dare to disobey Pingxihou's orders, and all withdrew.

The companion of the fifth prince wanted to say something, but under the gaze of Pingxi Hou, he still closed his mouth and walked out of the house.

The house was emptied;

Outside the house, there are Sword Saints and Chen Daxia guarding them;

Marquis Zheng walked to the bedside,

Reached

took out a Xue San brand quenching dagger from his cuff,

Well

Before meeting the prince,

No one dared to search for Marquis Zheng's body.

Holding the dagger,

Marquis Zheng said with emotion:

"It's a pity, the Gundam hasn't been built yet, and people are going to die."

Then

The "unconscious" five princes lying on the bed,

I opened my eyes.

"You're waking up early."

The fifth prince smiled: "I don't want to roll out of bed in a panic to dodge when the dagger falls, it hurts." ”

"How boring am I?"

"Do you have to go through a process?"

"Yes, you see that my dagger is ready."

"Okay."

The five princes closed their eyes again and cooperated with the performance.

Marquis Zheng stroked the edge of the dagger,

When San'er gave the dagger to himself before, he also specially told himself not to lick the dagger with his tongue in order to be handsome.

Marquis Zheng holds a dagger,

Gloomy Path:

"It's a pity that he didn't die, but anyone who dares to stand in the way of the Sixth Highness has to die!"

After that,

The dagger stabbed down.

"Poof!"

The fifth prince rolled off the bed and fell firmly,

Open your eyes,

Staring at Marquis Zheng,

With three points of shock, three points of shame, three points of confusion and the last point of doubt,

Asked:

"How do you know I'm pretending!"

Zheng Fan snapped his fingers,

Nodding with satisfaction,

Road:

"Perfect."
