Chapter 162
Within a moment, the news of the servant's suicide reached the palace.
Yin Ji subconsciously glanced at Yin Changying, and saw that the elder brother said very calmly: "Since you committed suicide in fear of sin, you will hand it over to the Tingwei Yamen to investigate to the end." β
Zheng Gao is so shrewd, as soon as he heard it, he knew that this was the core figure of Jiang Zhong's family, except for Jiang Zhong himself, to clean it up in one breath.
Yin Ji also tasted this meaning, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
The same party was liquidated, and only Jiang Zhong was in the prime and unharmed.
But any individual, when he sees this kind of scene, he will think that Jiang Zhong sold them all to protect his own glory and wealth. If the hatred doesn't go to Jiang Zhong, who will it go?
"Auntie is soft-hearted?"
"Not really." Yin Ji said softly, "I just think that when people are in a desperate situation, in order to turn the book, they will always be unable to see the things around them and their own situation. β
Of course, it is impossible for the servant to commit suicide for no reason, it can only be that Jiang Zhong sent someone to say something to him, probably in exchange for the safety of the family with the life of one person, right?
Pitiful, but also lamentable.
Seeing that Yin Cheng showed a trace of weakness, there was no need for Yin Changying to say, Zheng Gao had already signaled to Abu to give Yin Cheng a hot incense drink, and handed it directly to her hand.
Yin Ji subconsciously took the teacup with both hands, took a small sip and drank it twice, and her mood calmed down a lot.
Yin Changying saw her put down the cup, and then said: "Jiang Zhong also has a bit of eyesight, Wei Wei, Neishi, Taifu, Pawn, Fengchang, Lang Zhongling, Gu Ben planned to change them all." β
β¦β¦
Replace Jiuqing with six in one go?
Yin Cheng suspected that she had misheard.
If she remembers correctly, among the "Three Princes", Taiwei is generally in the position of honor, prime minister and imperial doctor, one Jiang Zhong is not in status, and the other is very old.
In Jiuqing, Shaofu was originally a retainer of the Yin royal family, and Zongzheng and Fengchang could only be served by the royal family.
It is true that Zongzheng is in charge of the clan, but Zhaoguo does not have the concept of a clan, so they are in charge of the marriage of the princesses.
Bongchang was in charge of the ceremonies of the temple.
Listening to Yin Changying's meaning, Jiuqing plans to change all of them except for the Shaofu Supervisor, Zong Zheng and Tingwei?
Yin Ji thought for a moment before asking: "Wei Wei and Neishi are rebellious, and the blame is self-inflicted; The servant has committed suicide in fear of sin, and there are three left, could it be that they are also Jiang Zhong's people? β
Yin Changying said lightly: "Lang Zhongling is pulled by him." β
ββ¦β¦β
No wonder the courtiers didn't take you seriously before.
Among the nine qing, there are two who directly control the military power;
Lang Zhongling is in charge of the palace gate, that is, all the buildings of the palace, and the guards are all Lang Zhongling's subordinates, and they are handed over to Lang Zhongling to be uniformly deployed;
The guard is in charge of the palace gate guards, responsible for garrisoning troops inside and outside the palace gate.
If any of these two people in the official position have different intentions, they may collude with rebellious ministers and thieves, lead troops into the palace, force the king to death, support the new king, and even change the dynasty.
Because of this, the successive captains and Lang Zhongling cannot serve as non-king's henchmen.
As a result, these two guys are actually not your own people?
If you add to this the servant who is in charge of the world's horse politics and the king's chariots and horses; The internal history of the governance of the world's grain goods, as well as the internal history of the royal capital guard, etc......
Yin Ji was suddenly shocked.
None of these important positions are Yin Chang to win trust, no, not even a confidant of the former king?
"Gongqingβ" Yin Ji stopped talking.
Yin Changying guessed what she was going to ask, and said lightly: "The first king has been in power for less than four years, and his body is quite weak, and it all depends on the Zhaoguo system to firmly grasp the military power in his hands." Knowing that the ministers have different thoughts, they can only rely on Jiang Zhong to check and balance. β
Yin Ji couldn't help but sigh.
It's still that the kings of Zhaoguo have changed too quickly.
The first king reigned for less than four years, and his grandfather reigned for less than a year, and neither of the two generations of kings had enough time to support their henchmen in the court.
If it weren't for this, the first king would not have gone off the rails and gave Jiang Zhong the position of power, which was to rely on Jiang Zhong to suppress the secretary of Zhaoguo.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Zhong and An Xinhou's thinking is not wrong - the young king has been in power for seven years, and he has not cultivated his own manpower, so as long as they win over the existing manpower in the court, won't they still have the final say?
Yin Ji was suddenly curious: "If there is no power of 'witches', what will the eldest brother do with them?" β
Yin Changying glanced at her and asked casually; "No one has the power of 'witches'?"
Without waiting for Yin Ji to answer, he had already given the answer: "How to deal with it, how to deal with it." β
That's right, "historically", he was originally so quelled in rebellion.
Wait a minute.
Yin Ji suddenly thought of something that was very obvious, but had been ignored by herself before.
If there was no appearance for her, Yin Changying would probably not awaken the power of "Wu", but it doesn't matter if he is a witch or not, Chang Huan is still there!
Yin Changying's mortal body, how can he compete with such a behemoth?
Just by transforming ordinary human beings, those invulnerable monsters made by Changhuan, if Sun Qing and Fan Chen didn't make a move, ordinary people could only be slaughtered like chopping melons and vegetables, how could they defeat them?
Could it be that Yin Changying is not a witch, and Changhuan cannot appear?
Impossible!
Obviously, it was Changhuan who appeared first, and she went to the front of Wang Ling......
"Auntie, what are you thinking?"
"There's something I don't understand." Yin Cheng asked, "Long hustle...... Has it always been awake? β
Yin Changying had almost digested the memory of Changhuan, and when he heard the words, he said: "Feng Yi suddenly had an accident, and in an instant, drained the power of all the ghosts. He relied on the jade bi he got by chance to survive, and devoured the remnants of the eight ghosts around him, and obtained Feng Yi's scales, but he still fell into a deep sleep. Until hundreds of years ago, when the Bahe River flooded, the ancestors sacrificed to the river god with a princess. β
"The flesh and blood of the descendants, reviving him?"
"It's only partial, mainly because Zhaoguo, in the name of the country, sacrifices to the Bahe River every year, nourishing it with royal spirit. Thirteen years ago, it really woke up. Yin Changying replied, "For thousands of years, the Lan River has nourished the land of Kyushu and is inseparable from this land. Only by becoming an adult again can Changhuan get out of Feng Yi's control. But as the eldest son of the Emperor of Heaven, his identity is respected, and the object of his sacrifice must also be a person with royal spirit. β
It's just that you can only take away the meaning of King Zhao!
But what Yin Ji pays more attention to is a point in time.
Thirteen years ago.
Wasn't that just when she fell into this world?
Could it be that it is precisely because of her arrival that the long hustle will wake up? Nothing to do with sacrifices? So Yin Chang won in "history" without encountering any extraordinary resistance?
But what do those demons explain, they are all there!
Yin Ji didn't know if her guess was correct, so she had to say: "Sacrificing Bashui every year can still restore the hustle and bustle, and every household does not forget to worship the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors......"
When you don't know, forget it, since you know, Yin Changying will naturally not do such a stupid thing again, what to worship Dongjun, build a temple for the Five Emperors, seal Zen Taishan, etc., who knows if a more powerful demon will come out?
Therefore, he said lightly: "Feng Chang does not allow Gu to change the coronation and sacrifice process, and Gu has already made him go home to recuperate." β
