Chapter 508: Outside the palace gate, the peach blossoms are still the same
Marquis Zheng held the sword of the Son of Heaven,
Sitting on Pixiu's back,
Helpless
That's inevitable.
Facing a team of soldiers and horses who are extremely respectful to themselves and extremely polite to themselves, but will not listen to their orders at all, well, they are still their "boss" in name;
At this time, a big change is still taking place in Yanjing City.
Not used to it, really not used to it;
Since he was transferred from Hutou City to Cuiliubao, in the past five years, he Zheng Fan has basically participated in every situation in Dayan, and he can be regarded as a witness to the development of Dayan over the years.
In the drama of seizing the heir, he has also followed ninety-nine steps since he entered Beijing, but when he was about to kick the door, he was kicked out and pocketed here.
It's a pity that I can't witness it.
And what caused all this was the emperor, his hand, who had done all this early, "irrelevant to people, etc.", and could not play any really crucial role in this matter.
Succession,
It's a family affair of the Son of Heaven,
It is necessary to give an explanation to the people of the world, of course, it is important to give an explanation to the two princes;
It's just that when it really happens, outsiders, don't come in and join in the fun.
Hou Ye Zheng was a little anxious in his heart.
When eating hot pot with Lao Tian, Lao Tian said, in fact, whoever becomes the new monarch is almost inseparable from you Pingxi Hou;
And the blind man mentioned that if Ji Lao Liu became the new king, it might be even worse for us, because I used to think that Ji Lao Liu was very cute when he ate cornmeal.
But the fundamental reason for "Meng" is that he has been suppressed by Emperor Yan and cannot reach out to the real core of power, to be precise, the real authority of a country, and once he sits in that position and inherits everything from Emperor Yan, then this opponent will inevitably be more targeted in his moves;
It is true that the blind man has always taken "rebellion" as a premise.
Actually, this Zheng Fan also knows it, but even if the transaction between the two is aside, in terms of emotional tendencies, he still slightly hopes that Ji Lao Liu can have the last laugh in the end.
I think that at the gate of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, one was a free and absurd prince, and the other was a miscellaneous merchant captain;
Now
If one marquis and the other can sit on the throne and look back on life, it seems that they can give a circle, putting aside personal interests, which is actually quite beautiful.
As for the rest, we'll talk about that later.
await
await
And then
The bell rings.
After the nine rings of the bell,
The soldiers all fell to their knees and began to weep.
Marquis Zheng also got down from Pixiu, held the sword of the Son of Heaven, and knelt on the ground.
In the past, there were some things that could not be understood, to be exact, until today, you can't really see it.
That is Emperor Yan, his prestige in the army.
An emperor of great talent, an emperor who is determined to forge ahead, he must be supported by the soldiers.
It is the Jingnan Army, loyal to Lao Tian, even if Lao Tian orders a rebellion, they will fight this Yanjing together, but when they learn that Emperor Yan has died, will they be sad and cry?
Yes
Yes, it will be.
Man is a complex carrier, and the army, a group of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people, will only be more complex.
Because whether it is the Zhenbei Army or the Jingnan Army, the main body of the soldiers, oh no, to be exact, is basically Yan people.
Emperor Yan seems to have delegated power, and the two major field cavalry groups of Great Yan are all in the hands of the two princes, but in fact, Emperor Yan has long been the emperor of all Yan people, and this prestige and influence cannot be faked.
Justified and dignified, many times it seems useless, but sometimes, you really can't deny the value of its existence.
For example, Xu Fatpang, in his early years, was a staunch supporter of the rebellion of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, and now, isn't he also a big Yan Zhongliang and a shepherd?
maybe
Only his Marquis Zheng's Jin Dongjun will suffer the least impact in the face of this news.
Because the main body of the Jin Eastern Army is not a pure Yan person, he can't empathize.
And then
After a brief emotional swing,
A very real question came,
finally
Who won?
Is it the sixth son?
Is it the crown prince?
Or did other princes eat this delicious piece of meat?
And then
What should I do?
It's not the one who wins the throne, but the problem is that outsiders are often more concerned and eager than the candidates.
fortunately
The wait didn't last long.
Gonggong Qu came with a holy decree.
"Pingxi Hou, take the order."
The emperor has just died, whose will is this?
Is it the edict, or is it the new king's?
Marquis Zheng knelt down and prepared to receive the order.
Of course, he Zheng Fan will naturally not be Fusu, in case the will says to let him drink a glass of wine or cut himself, then Marquis Zheng will rebel to you every minute.
But the content of the holy decree was short and beyond Marquis Zheng's expectations:
"Ordered Pingxi Hou Zheng Fan, quickly transfer the Jingnan army outside the city to enter Beijing, and protect the holy bow."
"......" Zheng Fan.
This is not like the edict of Emperor Yan, nor is it like the edict of the new monarch that the crown prince or other princes will make, and it is not like the will of Ji Lao Liu, he Ji Lao Liu, but he knows what kind of person he is!
In the mutton soup restaurant in Beifeng County, the two have already confessed their hearts and analyzed their nature.
but
Zheng Houye is still:
"Minister, Commander."
Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, at this time, he has soldiers and horses by his side that he trusts and will definitely protect him, and that is the most important thing.
When he received the order and got up again, he found that behind Gonggong Qu, there was Gonggong Zhang standing next to Xiao Liuzi.
oh
I seem to understand.
Marquis Zheng took the sword of the Son of Heaven, turned over Pixiu, and said to Fan Li on his side first:
"Go back and send your family back to the palace."
"Yes, Lord."
Fan Li left.
Marquis Zheng, accompanied by Gonggong Qu, came to the east gate again.
The gates were opened.
No one questioned the arrangement of the edict, and everything seemed to be going well.
But this is obviously not long before the bell rings, and all parties should be suspicious and prevaricated, but at the moment, this matter is exceptionally smooth.
Marquis Zheng went out of the city and came to the camp outside the city.
Marquis Zheng, who can try to brush his face, still took out the Jingnan Wang Decree under the gaze of Gonggong Qu,
And then
Without the slightest surprise,
The 10,000 iron cavalry of the Jingnan Army plus the personal soldiers brought by Marquis Zheng from Xincheng all obeyed the order.
When the army entered Beijing, there was no hindrance.
Everything is silky smooth.
It was so smooth that Marquis Zheng was a little unaccustomed to it.
Marquis Zheng went out of the city,
Marquis Zheng is back again,
Side
He also brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who obeyed him.
shouted: I, Hu Hansan, are back again, it's too embarrassing;
But at least, I have a sense of security, my heart is raised, and I feel that I can do it again.
"Gonggong Qu, where should Ben Hou go next?" Marquis Zheng asked a nonsense.
"Master Hou, since you should go to Your Majesty, thank you for your errand."
Zheng Fan nodded,
With a wave of his hand,
The iron rode in a column towards the palace.
A few days ago, when he took over the Sword of Heaven from Emperor Yan and was ordered to go out of the city to transfer troops, Marquis Zheng thought about whether he could become Dong Zhuo on the road;
Right now
His soldiers have been brought in.
Tens of thousands of iron horsemen, in the capital, are definitely a force to be reckoned with.
Don't look at the Zhenbei Army in the city, but if you really start it, whoever makes the first move will have the first opportunity, not that you can't fight it.
And rebellion is such a thing,
Even if the success rate of one percent is enough to make countless careerists succeed one after another,
What's more, I can barely mix it up now.
But the more so,
The more Zheng Fan was puzzled.
When you don't have that opportunity, you can't help but think that when you are "at your fingertips", there is suddenly a sense of dullness in your heart.
Of course
It's not like it's all without everything, and it's all too smooth in it.
This means that Yanjing City has not fallen into chaos because of the death of Emperor Yan, on the contrary, this imperial city is still in a key position and is operating in an orderly manner.
If the water is not mixed, how can you still touch the fish?
The so-called "five-five open" is only on the surface, but in fact, it will only be lower.
Most importantly,
Emperor Yan died, and Marquis Zheng's heart was also relieved, and the appearance of Gonggong Zhang proved with a high probability that Xiao Liuzi had won;
A good day is coming with the naked eye, so at this time, is there really no need to take risks?
in a word
With all kinds of thoughts intertwined in his mind, Marquis Zheng led the army to the gate of the palace.
On the way,
I saw the people who were so sorrowful;
At the same time, because this imperial city accommodated too many soldiers and horses, to a certain extent, it did contain the chaos that might occur due to the death of Emperor Yan, such as smashing and looting.
And when Marquis Zheng came to the gate of the palace,
The carriage that Ji Lao Liu and the prince were sitting in has not actually arrived yet.
Because the carriage was going very slowly, deliberately slowly.
After Emperor Yan returned to the palace from the back garden, the palace was not actually cleaned;
This time, the new monarch is going to enter the palace, and he must clean it up.
Whether it is Wei Zhonghe or Lu Bing, they are all experts in this, where there is dust in the palace and where there is not an eye, in fact, it is clear early on, but when it is cleaned up, it still takes some time.
Moreover, since the new monarch has promulgated the first will, he must be respected, and it is impossible for the new monarch to wait for the Marquis of Pingxi at the gate of the palace, right?
This is the considerate treatment of the emperor,
Ji Chengjue: This is enjoyed.
At the gate of the palace,
The fourth prince, Ji Chengfeng, first heard the bell ringing,
In a flash
He wanted to laugh, but he held back stiffly, and it was so painful that he held back tears.
subsequently
It's the panic that is pouring down on him!
When my father was there, I always felt that I was overwhelmed, and besides, the seventh child was too young, and among the princes who were still adults, the prince and the sixth were naturally the first batch, the eldest was the second batch, and the fifth was repairing the river embankment outside.
So
Calculate and calculate,
The most useless of the princes may be the one who burns in the brazier like the third child, and he is the only one left.
Always ready to dedicate himself to his father and the emperor for Dayan, this kind of taste is really a terrible torment.
Right now
Daddy is gone,
After the violent mood swings at the beginning ended, Ji Chengfeng suddenly realized that the pillar in his home had collapsed.
And then
What should he do?
My father died, what should I do with the throne?
Straight sissy thief,
Who the hell won?
Don't hurry up and give some accurate words!
No matter what, there is one thing that Ji Chengfeng knows very well, that is, it has nothing to do with him, and it is impossible for him to win, but now, he is guarding the most important position at the palace gate.
If you are a little careless, what mistakes will you show next, you probably won't even be able to be an idle clan!
And in his anxiety,
The knights of the Jingnan Army appeared.
Ji Lao Liu's soldiers and horses are the Beijing camp that they pulled up, and there are some old soldiers in it, but on the whole, they have not really seen blood on the battlefield;
In fact, it was Li Liangshen's town, the Zhenbei Army, in the past few years, in fact, there has been no war;
Weapons don't need to rust after a long time, the same is true for soldiers and horses, they don't fight for several years, and no matter how majestic the soldiers and horses are, they have to be impetuous, especially in this town, the northern army is still stationed in Gyeonggi, this prosperous place of Dayan, which is much more interesting and moisturizing than gnawing sand in the desert.
And Zheng Fan's own personal guards and the Jingnan Army, the headquarters of the King of Jingnan, have fought almost all the battles of these Great Yan's foreign expeditions, and that evil aura can be said to be so strong that it is about to drip water.
There are still fresh damaged dents on the armor of many soldiers, which is the medal of honor of the armor, and it is the most direct deterrent to outsiders!
So
When the Marquis of Pingxi led this army of soldiers and horses to appear at the gate of the palace,
Ji Chengfeng immediately recognized one thing, it was absolutely impossible for these soldiers and horses under his command to stop them.
Of course, it is not impossible to close the palace gate and defend against the palace wall.
After all, the fortifications of the palace, the towering palace walls, were actually designed from the beginning with practicality in mind.
But the problem is that for hundreds of years, especially when the emperor's grandfather built Taoist Buddhist temples in Beijing, and when he arrived at his father's emperor, he simply changed those Taoist Buddhist temples into imperial court offices, which made the imperial palace expand all of a sudden, and for the convenience of the courtiers, some places were changed to a very unreasonable layout.
The main thing is that
Ages
But if you really encounter a foreign enemy or a mutiny,
How many have you seen who really guarded the palace gate?
At this time, people's hearts are scattered, and no matter how good the palace wall is, it is useless.
"Defense!"
Ji Chengfeng ordered,
The spearmen of his corporal immediately marched into battle,
The axe hand and the shield hand are in the back,
The last head,
It is a crossbowman.
In addition, on the palace wall, there were also soldiers who began to be on guard.
But this kind of battle did not put any pressure on the knights behind Marquis Zheng.
Connoisseurs will know if there is one at a glance.
Tigers don't look overly nervous because of the fangs and claws of a pack of cats;
Even, many knights still have smiles on their faces, and they really don't take it seriously.
They all rushed through the phalanx of the Great Chu Foot Soldiers, how could they be afraid of this scene in front of them?
even
Many knights are a little eager to try, just waiting for their own marquis to give an order, they don't need to deliberately assign commands, their own rear team starts to ride and shoot to suppress the palace wall, their own front army squeezes the opponent's army formation with iron hooves, and their own Chinese army is not afraid of death to directly chisel them!
These things are all imprinted in the bones and sharpened step by step in actual combat.
Swing the flower shelf,
Are they really ordinary people on the street?
As for what it means to launch an attack on the Jingying guarding the palace gate and an attack on the imperial palace, they are not unclear, but it doesn't matter.
Among them, in fact, many knights had red eyes, and shed tears and sadness for Emperor Yan's death;
But on the battlefield, Pao Ze has experienced a lot of experience in continuing to charge, and he knows better what it means to be able to hold it and put it down.
This is the soldier brought out by Lao Tian,
this
It is also where he Zheng Houye, on the way out of the city last time, dared to fantasize about Dong Zhuo's confidence in his mind.
But
Marquis Zheng didn't directly order the charge,
but took out the holy decree,
He intends to convince people with virtue.
He cleared his throat,
opened the decree,
And then
I was stunned for a moment.
On the holy decree, there is a blank space, and only in the place where the seal is used, the jade seal is used.
"........." Zheng Fan.
Fuck you, uncle!
Marquis Zheng immediately turned his head to look at Gonggong Qu, who was accompanying him to transfer troops in, and found that Gonggong Qu was saluting him with a polite and gentle smile.
At this moment,
Witty as Marquis Zheng is also a little confused,
Is he now a great Yan Zhongliang or a rebellious thief?
What the hell is this fucking blank decree with a seal!!
What is the difference between this thing and the radish seal that he gave to the eldest prince at the beginning?
And then
Ji Lao Liu, did he win or lose or was clicked?
Marquis Zheng, who has always liked to watch the fire from the other side and gain insight into all feelings, has really had the intuitive feeling of being in this mountain for a while.
And Ji Chengfeng, who was on the other side, naturally recognized Pingxihou.
It's hard to recognize it, the two princes live in a shallow way, and now they can ride Pixiu around in the city, except for Pingxi Hou is his eldest brother.
But Ji Chengfeng hesitated, he didn't dare to come out to ask.
He was worried that after he came out, he would be directly cut by the Marquis of Pingxi, and then the Marquis of Pingxi waved his palm, and the army entered the city.
But at the same time,
He was also worried that Pingxi Hou would directly choose to attack,
Because since Pingxi Hou has led the troops in, it is no accident that he should be helping the sixth brother, he Ji Chengfeng, is he half of the Sixth Master Party, isn't it?
The father and emperor have already died, which brother is the emperor and needs him to worry about it? Anyway, he insisted on dying here, and the throne couldn't be his own.
Therefore, Ji Chengfeng is going out now, afraid of being cut with a knife, standing in place, afraid of being trampled by the horse's hooves, it is really a dilemma.
And at this moment,
The carriage finally arrived at the gate of the palace.
Catch a car,
It's Grandpa Wei,
Sitting next to him was Lu Bing.
Lu Bing got out of the carriage first, walked in front of Marquis Zheng, saluted first, and then said:
"Pingxi Hou, Your Majesty, please come over and see you."
Marquis Zheng rode Pixiu and leaned over.
At this time, he is not afraid of being slaughtered with a knife, because there is no need to take off his pants and fart, he insists on waiting for himself to come over with soldiers and horses and then kill himself, and add any variables to it.
In the carriage, Father-in-law Wei, who was holding the reins, smiled as kindly as ever at him.
Marquis Zheng also nodded in response;
Gonggong Wei looked away, with a little sigh and regret on his face.
forthwith
Zheng Houye's Pixiu came to the window of the carriage.
Marquis Zheng, who was sitting on Pixiu, gently knocked on the window with the sword of the Son of Heaven.
The window is opened from the inside,
revealed Ji Chengjue's face,
Ji Chengjue looked at Marquis Zheng outside the carriage and said:
"Slut, I'm the emperor."
Marquis Zheng nodded, and the stone in his heart finally landed completely,
Road:
"Okay, brute."
