Section 55 Turning the Clouds

readx;? Immediately after that, an order from the military headquarters was also issued to the major military regions and regiments, requiring all regiments to strengthen their defense on the spot, not to leave the defense area at will, and to punish those who violated the order as the crime of rebellion. The Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info Praetorian Guard Regiment was put on maximum alert, and all the officers of the five divisions were canceled and returned from vacation.

The 28th emperor Situ Mingyue died of illness in Anfu Palace at the age of 58. On the day of the month, all major newspapers and media in the empire reported the news with front-page headlines, and at the same time gave a subtle message to the people of the empire, that is, the choice of the new emperor of the empire is still undecided, and it needs to be decided by the imperial family and the imperial government. Almost at the same time, the six other important countries of the Eastern University also published the news one after another, and expressed concern about the current situation of the Tang Empire, and even expressed their condolences and concern to Ma Qi Khan and Kaman, who were in a state of war and semi-war with the Tang Empire.

CM due to the chaos of the situation also led to the instability of the situation in the imperial capital, although three days later, the imperial capital police department and the imperial military police headquarters jointly canceled the curfew, but it did not play a big role, the price of daily necessities of food, cooking oil, and cloth in the imperial capital changed several times a day, and all kinds of rumors and news were also flying all over the sky. Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs took severe measures to crack down, such measures did not have much effect, and it was not until the General Administration of Commerce of the Empire ordered the Jiangnan and Donghai places to urgently transfer grain and other daily necessities into Beijing to stabilize prices, and this superficial chaotic situation was alleviated.

cm"What the hell are these damn bureaucrats doing?!" The frost-faced girl's willow eyebrows were upside down, Danfeng's eyes flashed with a majestic light, maybe it was the over-motorized mutton fat jade-like duck egg face with a few touching flushes, and a close-fitting palace dress outlined the girl's soft and charming figure to the fullest, and a pair of tall jade feng on the chest were even more sharply undulating.

cm "Thirteenth sister, don't be anxious, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, your ninth brother and I are not in a hurry at this time, what are you anxious about?" Sitting in the girl's boudoir, there was no longer the warm smile on the handsome face, replaced by a cold smile that appeared from time to time, and the hatred in his eyes showed that he was actually angry to the extreme, "Hmph, these guys are waiting to ask some people for merit and reward, or they are selling at this price." ”.

cm: "How did the 6th husband do it? How did he, the Minister of the Interior, do not have any means to deal with it, how did he communicate and coordinate with Ma Yuanxiang in the first place? Didn't he see the slightest sign before this? Why did this happen?" The girl was stunned, and her tone was not soothing at all. Situ Yushuang actually doesn't care very much about which of her brothers will be the emperor, although the death of her father also brought a touch of sadness to her, but after all, her father has been bedridden for so long, it should be said that almost everyone has this considerable mental preparation, but the country cannot be without a king for a day, no matter who ascends to this position, it is much better than the current situation where the throne is vacant, especially in the face of the surrounding enemy countries looking at the internal vassals.

cm: "Thirteenth sister, you can't blame the 6th husband, your ninth brother and I have been watching all this with wide eyes all day long, how did I never think that the problem would be Ma Yuanxiang and Ning Yuanwang, these two people are looking far away and looking at the other from afar, that Dao is really my Situ Lang's nemesis? Doesn't he still understand his father's intentions, but as soon as his father is gone, the situation will become like this, how do you let me deal with it? Situ Lang was a little depressed lying on his sister's embroidery bed, obviously not noticing his sister's unhappiness.

"This idiot of Jilin really issued an order to the Third and Fourth Army Corps not to be transferred at will in accordance with the requirements of the Provisional Military and Political Decision-making Committee, and he didn't want to think about it, how did he get into this position, without our Situ Lang, he could have today? Hmph, he didn't look at who the Third and Fourth Army would listen to. Situ Lang's face was a little distorted, "It's a pity that I'm a step late, otherwise these two legions would have entered Beijing, and without the Praetorian Guard Legion, I would have been able to achieve my goal." ”.

cm frowned, the girl stared at her brother who was still intoxicated with fantasy with some dissatisfaction, she did not agree with her brother's idea, in that case, if Ma Yuan did not give in, it would lead to the explosion of the civil war in the imperial capital, not to mention whether the combat strength of the third and fourth legions could withstand the Praetorian Legion, but this war would put the empire in an extremely dangerous situation, and foreign forces would be even more happy to see this situation.

CM: "Brother Jiu, I think you still don't fantasize about those things that have passed, now let's think more about how to solve the current problems." The girl slowed down her tone a little and said: "Ma Yuan is there, I suggest that you go to the rumors again to see what went wrong, now the entire imperial capital is under his control, even if he changes his mind now, the result is still the same, I don't see why he did this." ”.

cm: "Why?Thirteenth sister, is there anything else to doubt about this, isn't it that someone has promised a high position of generous profits?" Situ Lang's handsome face was shrouded in a layer of gloom, "In addition to this, he will have other thoughts in the future?".

cm: "If that's the case, Brother Jiu, you should consider other methods, if he really wants to talk about the chaos in this imperial capital for his own selfish intentions, presumably his subordinates may not be able to fully support him." Brother Jiu, you can think of more ways in this area and see if you can make a breakthrough. The girl suggested in a deep voice.

cm: "Thirteenth sister, you also underestimate your ninth brother." But this Praetorian Guard Legion was run like an iron bucket by Ma Yuan, and I sent it to contact the commanders of the five divisions, except for one who was vague, the others all clearly rejected my solicitation, what else do you say Ninth Brother can do?" Situ Lang looked depressed, "Even the only one with an unclear attitude is unwilling to contact my people more, for fear of being detected." ”.

cm"So he still has some ability to go far and backwards, and he can firmly control these guys, no wonder he can be so arrogant, he does have his arrogant capital. A trace of surprise flashed across the girl's face, "But Brother Jiu, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, you can't give up, which one has a vague attitude and should increase its efforts, now the attitude of the Praetorian Guard is not very clear, if you can't win them into your hands, at least you have to let them stand, as long as they don't favor the others, the little sister looks at you in the court is not bad, and you should have the greatest chance." ”.

cm"The thirteenth sister is right, the ninth brother has been taught. Seeing the girl's solemn face, the handsome young man also replied with a straight face, and then said with a wry smile: "At present, we can only take one step at a time, and the funeral of my father will be held soon. ”.

CM Huachang Avenue Section Mafu. Ma Yuanxiang, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, sat in the study with a gloomy face and looked at a pair of calligraphy hanging on the wall, "Tolerance is great, and no desire is rigid", but who can really do this? Don't you also want to get involved in these affairs? Can you help yourself? Thinking of this, Ma Yuanxiang's face floated a grim color, he didn't want to provoke people, but someone rode up, and suddenly pushed himself into the crater, but he couldn't move.

cm"Your Excellency, a guest is here. The words of the subordinate interrupted his contemplation, Ma Yuanxiang sighed lightly, the other party was sure that he would not dare to turn his face, just stuck his own vital point, and pressed step by step, only hoping that the other party would not gain an inch, "Let him come in." ”.

There were only two people left in the cm study, Ma Yuanxiang stared coldly at the thin man in front of him, who was not amazing, and only snorted from his nose for a long time: "What should be done by Ma Yuanxiang has already been done according to your master's requirements, should you also fulfill your promise?".

CM "Lord Ma, I can guarantee this point, there is absolutely no problem with the safety of your son and lady's life, of course, we hope that Lord Ma can continue according to our original agreement, if you are not at ease, I can stay here as a hostage." "The thin man's eyes are bright, his cheekbones are slightly messy, he seems to be of foreign blood, and he has thin lips and whiskers.

cm: "You are a hostage, what is your value? You are just a pawn of your master, if you need to, then you are not abandoned?" glanced at the other party contemptuously, Ma Yuan pursed his lips disdainfully and said: "Then what do you mean that the horse can only fulfill the promise in the future? The situation is not something that Ma can control, and some things will not work even if Ma does it, I hope your master can understand this." ”.

CM "Lord Ma, please rest assured, our master is not an unreasonable person, and if that were the case, my master would not have just put forward such conditions." The thin man's eyes flashed with a hint of anger, and then he replied politely.

cm: "Hehe, your master is very smart, but he has made Ma's bottom line clear enough." If he makes excessive requests, Ma can only say sorry. The commander of the Praetorian Guard stood up and turned around before he said: "The matter of crossing the bottom line, don't say that Ma will not agree, even if he agrees, Ma will not be able to complete it, I believe your master is as clear as ever." ”.
