Chapter 377: Qingzhou Incident

The man put the letter in both hands, Liu Dongxing grabbed it, opened it and looked at it, and his heart was shocked.

This is Luo Mingmin's handwriting.

The letter said that there began to be abnormal movements in King Zheng's mansion half a month ago, at first a strategist reported illness and disappeared, but a few days later, two subordinate officials of the palace were scolded to death with a rod for verbally hitting King Zheng, and less than a day, the chief of the palace Shi also fell ill. In less than a day, the prince returned to the palace to work, and his only grandson became the companion of the prince of Zheng on the same day and moved into the palace.

After learning the news, the Qingzhou General Administration Department felt that there would be some turmoil in King Zheng's mansion, which was suitable for fishing in troubled waters, so he sent someone to infiltrate to investigate. It turned out that the missing strategist was ordered by King Zheng to be imprisoned and detained for some reason, and he was waiting to be released, but this person had been in the palace for a long time and was quite popular, and he was suddenly imprisoned, and many subordinate officials wanted to intercede for him. However, King Zheng is angry, where can he listen? Instead, in a fit of rage, several waiters were sent down. When the two royal officials learned of this, they went to admonish King Zheng not to kill or injure people because of his anger, for fear of harming the peace of heaven and his reputation, and even if there is a great transformation in the future, it will inevitably be called tyrannical.

Although they said it tactfully, King Zheng understood it in his heart. He intended to kill his younger brother and usurp the throne, he was destined not to have a good reputation, but he felt that he was the rightful prince, and the third prince was only able to snatch his crown prince because he had a favorite concubine mother, and he snatched back the throne of the emperor that belonged to him, which was a righteous act, how could he get a bad reputation? He was already upset about the start of the army, but before the matter was done, the people around him ran out to dismantle his platform, telling him how to tolerate it?

He was angry, and he didn't think much about it, so he ordered the cane to be scolded by the two subordinate officials, originally only intending to teach them a lesson. Unexpectedly, these two people were frail scholars, and the executioner was not light or heavy, and they were killed in one beating. There was an uproar in King Zheng's mansion, many people felt that they were messing with Prince Zheng with their heads, but this master had not yet achieved great things, and began to kill heroes. He looked for an excuse to complain about his illness, just to avoid trouble, but he didn't expect King Zheng to come to the door in person to expose him, warn him again, and take away his precious grandson, in desperation, he had to go back to the palace on an errand.

When the Qingzhou General Administration learned of the news, he thought that the opportunity could not be lost, so he quietly spread rumors in Qingzhou City, saying that King Zheng was tyrannical and would kill people to vent his anger as long as someone upset him a little. King Zheng has been operating in the domain for many years, and his actions are not leaky, and the subordinates in the palace will also have bullying behavior, but the victimized people dare not speak out. This rumor was accompanied by the people in Qingzhou City, and soon it spread rapidly, and even Jinnan knew about it. The officials of Qingzhou and Jinnan were reluctant to submit because they were afraid of King Zheng's power, and after hearing these rumors, two of the rumors who died were subordinate officials of the royal palace, which were official officials sent by the imperial court, not lowly servants, and they died because of a trivial matter, and everyone had a feeling of death and coldness. Jiang Muxi and others took the opportunity to make suggestions to other officials, and heard a lot of important news, and even got information about several garrisons that had taken refuge in King Zheng, and the Jinnan General Political Department immediately reported it.

However, although this operation has gained a lot, the Qingzhou General Administration Department may be due to the relationship of the reconstruction, and the preparations in all aspects are insufficient, and the secretary is a little eager to do things, showing some traces of it, and the people of Zheng Wangfu are embellished, and after a death fight, a lot of manpower has been lost. The worst thing is that through this incident, King Zheng gave birth to a sense of precaution, and also understood that the imperial court had noticed his movements, and in a panic, he ordered the personality of the general administration secretary to be killed, and frequently sent people out of the palace to deliver messages, it is very likely that he wanted to inform his dead friend and start the incident in advance. This letter was sent by the Jinnan branch in every possible way under the emergency situation, and it had already taken two days on the road, and by the time the people in Cannes received the letter, the Jinnan branch had already been transferred. If they can successfully escape, it will be the best, if not, the people of the Pingyang branch will have to do their best to send the news out, and at the same time control the rebels in King Kang's mansion as soon as possible, lest King Zheng get help, and the situation will get out of control.

At the end of the letter, the names of all the generals who fell to King Zheng were heard by the Jinnan Branch, as well as the list of court officials, wealthy merchants and others who had taken refuge in King Zheng's mansion, among which the Rong'an garrison was the closest to Kangcheng, and a circle was drawn with a red pen.

After reading the letter, Liu Dongxing let out a long breath. Hu Jinquan snatched the letter and looked at the list carefully.

Liu Dongxing didn't care, his heart was in turmoil. If the Jinnan branch wants to be transferred, it must be to avoid falling into the hands of King Zheng, which shows that the situation is already very tense. When he left Qingzhou, it was just a passing day, and he didn't expect the situation to take a sharp turn to this point. At the moment, I don't know if Luo Mingmin, Jiang Muxi and the others are safe, but seeing that Luo Mingmin can still write such a detailed letter in such a situation, the handwriting is only slightly scribbled, it should not be critical, I just hope he can get out of danger smoothly.

Hu Jinquan read the list, and firmly reflected every name on it in his mind, so he hurriedly put it away and said to Liu Dongxing: "Without further ado, I have to report this news immediately." If you take the land route, the snow on the road has not disappeared, and I don't know if there will be any changes on the road. I plan to send a few people to report the letter to the north by separate routes, in case there is an accident on the road and the news cannot reach the capital. After a pause, "It happened sooner than we expected, but fortunately we were well prepared and didn't have to rush." ...... at the other end of the garrison"

"I'll send someone back to deliver the letter at once." Liu Dongxing took his words, "Although it is already dark now, if there is an important military matter, the soldiers guarding the city will release them." At this time, we don't care if we will startle the snake. King Zheng's people have already captured Zhu Jiayi, and we have lost the opportunity......"

The two looked at each other, both a little helpless. Wang Yongtai put Zhu Jiayi in the position of the young lord, in order to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to command the huge network left by King Kang's mansion, but the really useful force may depend on the 3,000 soldiers and horses in the Rong'an garrison. If this army really fell to King Zheng's mansion, King Zheng gave the order, and they set off immediately, and two days would probably be enough to reach Kangcheng. The people from the Kangnan garrison were coming over, and it was a little slow for half a day. I just hope that King Zheng's order will not be given so soon.

Liu Dongxing was about to get up, when he suddenly paused and looked back at Hu Jinquan: "Rong'an Garrison ...... I remember that it was contacted by someone from King Kang's Mansion, even if there was an incident, it would be to listen to King Kang's orders, right? ”

Hu Jinquan's eyes lit up: "Although I don't know if King Zheng will cross King Kang's Mansion and give an order directly to Rong'an, no matter how capable he is, he must keep an eye on his own territory, he can't be distracted, and always pay attention to the affairs of Kangcheng, King Kang's Mansion was originally his helper, so it will naturally ...... now."

The two laughed at each other, knowing what to expect.

What did Zheng Wangfu send a master to rob Zhu Jiayi for? Naturally, he wanted to bypass Wang Yongtai, use Zhu Jiayi's name to command the manpower of King Kang's Mansion, and then use these manpower to achieve his own goals. If King Zheng can directly mobilize the soldiers of the Rong'an garrison, what else can he do in one more move? It can be seen that things have not yet reached the point of being out of control.

The two discussed the next plan, and then Hu Jinquan left first, and Liu Dongxing also returned to the backyard to see Wen Yi, and whispered: "Things have changed, you hurry home, I have something to do in the next few days, and I may not be able to take care of my family." ”

Wen Yi hurriedly grabbed him: "What's the matter?" She glanced in Yunni's direction, "But what's wrong with Zhu Jiayi?" ”

Liu Dongxing shook his head: "Zhu Jiayi is currently in the hands of King Zheng, and it is estimated that he will not worry about his life for the time being, but his current whereabouts are unknown." King Zheng may start an incident in advance, and we must stop the people of King Kang's Mansion from following suit. In the next few days, there may be some chaos in the city, and you restrain your family to not go out if you have nothing to do. It won't take a few days to calm down. ”

Wen Yi was a little nervous when she heard this, and grabbed his sleeve: "Will it be dangerous?" ”

Liu Dongxing smiled and shook her hand: "It won't be more dangerous than the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang, don't be afraid." Then he staggered and walked towards Yunni: "Miss Qin, I have heard what the lady said, and the person sent out to inquire has also replied." The little prince did go to find the Xiuyun girl, but unfortunately, a group of robbers broke into his house and robbed, injured the Xiuyun girl's father, and robbed the little prince, probably to extort from the palace. ”

Yunni's eyes were dark, she almost didn't faint, and her whole body shook: "What...... What the? That...... Will the little prince ...... Will it be ......"

"Don't panic yet, he won't be in danger for the time being." Liu Dongxing's voice was low and calm, which made Yun Ni feel sure in her heart, and asked hopefully, "Can you save the little prince?" ”

Liu Dongxing said: "The thief kidnapped the little prince, he must have wanted to extort money from the palace, and sooner or later he will contact the chief manager." But now that the chief manager Wang believes that it was Ling Tang who instigated the little prince to leave, even if someone blackmails him, he is afraid that he will not believe it, but will misunderstand that this is a conspiracy between Ling Tang and the little prince, and I don't know what will happen to Ling Tang. Lingtang's safety is really worrying."

Immediately, Yunnie's tears fell.

Liu Dongxing also continued: "If he insists on refusing to believe that the little prince was really robbed and missed the opportunity, I don't know how the robbers will torture the little prince." Poor little prince, a child, was hurt by this for no reason. ”

Yunni cried: "Auntie, please save him." He...... He's still so young......"

Wen Yi frowned and quietly pulled Liu Dongxing's sleeve. Liu Dongxing gave her a reassuring look, and said to Yunni, "Don't worry. The top priority at the moment is to quickly infiltrate the palace, rescue Lingtang, and then explain the truth to Manager Wang. I have already ordered someone to invite the people of the Zhu family, and with their testimony, I can prove that Ling Tang is innocent. In this way, when the thief delivers the letter, we will know how to save people. He smiled at Yunni: "Miss Qin, don't you know that there are several unknown entrances to King Kang's Mansion?" Can you show us the way? We also avoided the people of the palace and rescued Lingtang. ”。.。
