Section 87 Shouzhou Zheng Family
Li Jin still left, but in the end he still did not answer Jiang Feng's question. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Not answering is actually the best answer, Jiang Feng realized that there was probably a more complicated story behind his assassination, and it was probably difficult for him to even think of it.
The various forces in Chang'an City in Guanzhong are intertwined and full of contradictions, and the complexity of them may be difficult for even the nominal ruler in Chang'an City to figure out, or it is difficult to interfere, not only because of his own assassination, but also because of the issue of Shannan West Road.
The next series of visits and condolences also confirmed Jiang Feng's suspicions, whether it was His Royal Highness or His Second Highness, or the bigwigs of the Political Hall and the Privy Council, they all came to the door one after another, and in addition to condolences, they also vowed to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, which made Jiang Feng a little confused.
I'm just a small feudal lord, or maybe I can't even count a feudal lord, how can it affect the nerves of so many people?
In other words, his own assassination is no longer just a simple matter of his own assassination, but also involves many other people and forces involved.
Just like His Highness said, there are always some people who want to make waves, deliberately muddy with anyone, in vain to gain in it, or say that they can't gain profits, but they want to hurt you, and this kind of person is so vicious.
Jiang Feng didn't know who he was referring to, and even Jiang Feng felt that he was afraid that His Highness himself couldn't tell who was deliberately framing him, but the people and forces that might frame him were probably not one or two, otherwise he wouldn't be unsure.
All in all, Jiang Feng understood that he was just involved in the unwarranted disaster, maybe people didn't want to assassinate themselves at all, they just wanted to muddy the waters by assassinating themselves, making the situation more chaotic, making all parties more suspicious and suspicious, and then profiting from it, but now it's not so easy for you to sort it out, and many things will slowly show up over time.
Like His Highness in a fit of rage, he is sure to be suspicious and even hostile to several of his potential accusers, and if the assassin is not among them, then perhaps this is what he is trying to achieve.
Thinking about this, Jiang Feng felt more and more that it was of little significance in this Chang'an City, but he was a little sorry for such an opportunity to come to Chang'an, and he didn't want to leave in such a hurry.
Chang'an City is also full of talents, but compared with Bianliang, the Nine Grand Princes of Chang'an are more powerful, almost monopolizing the resources of the entire Guanzhong, and even the foreign feudal clans who can get involved, they are also unwilling to give the Shu people a chance.
These are just not a problem for Jiang Feng, his subordinates are almost a hodgepodge, although it is the most people from the Great Liang, but there is still a lot of power like the Xu family, the Ju family and the local forces, and now he needs more non-Liang talents to enter, so as to achieve the balance of the entire Huzhou military and political leaders and generals.
Like Karim and Nashin have come to the door, although they have put forward a lot of pre-requisites, but Jiang Feng is very satisfied, the suspect is the buyer, and being able to put forward so many requirements shows that they really want to join, otherwise they don't need other reasons, just say that they are not energetic and have insufficient funds to get out now.
Su Tie estimated that Jiang Feng and his entourage had already left Tongguan, so he informed Jiang Feng that he had left through Wei Chi Wuai.
Wei Chi was surprised and could only sigh, in his opinion, Jiang Feng was frightened by this assassination, thinking that it was also in Chang'an City, outside the Qi Palace, there was actually a master assassination in the fixed period, if it wasn't for the proper response, maybe Jiang Feng would really be left behind.
Even outside the Qi Palace, this kind of thing can happen, if you really have the heart to deal with Jiang Feng, I am afraid that the next time the luck may not be so good.
Jiang Feng also left letters to Li Jin and Wei Chi Wuai, as well as the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council.
Of course, Xiang Chi Wuxi's explanation was that Huzhou was busy with affairs and needed to go back immediately, so please forgive me for saying goodbye, and the letter to Li Jin was much richer, and he talked a lot, and also invited Li Jin to visit Huzhou within the year.
As for saying that the political hall and the Privy Council are nothing more than clichés, the government hall officials have basically negotiated with Jiang Feng about the candidates for the Gwangju Assassin History, Changshi, Sima and the Six Cao Judgment Divisions, and there will inevitably be another confrontation here, His Royal Highness and the Second Highness both intend to add their own private affairs, and the political affairs hall wants to ensure that the intentions of the imperial court are realized, so it has only dragged on for a few days, and it just so happens that Jiang Feng can't go out due to injury, so the officials are also frequently in and out of Jiang Feng's residence, and the candidates are finally finalized.
The cycads had another task to stay in Chang'an.
Jiang Feng gave him the task of recruiting talents in Guanzhong, and at the same time asked Li Jin to help him recruit Shu talents to Huzhou through letters.
Jiang Feng believes that Li Jin is willing to help on this issue, because it is difficult for the Shu clan in Guanzhong to get ahead, even more difficult than in Nanyang, the wealthy families of the public secretary have almost monopolized all the high positions, and even the position of a little oil and water is occupied by these wealthy clans, not to mention that the Shu clan is the same as many local gentry in Guanzhong.
On the way back, Jiang Feng did not choose to go to Nanyang, the reason is also very simple, he is very suspicious that the assassination in Chang'an City is not the dumping of Chang'an's internal forces, but from Nanyang.
Of course, this is only a possibility, but this possibility also means that if you return through Wuguan Road, then you will need to go through a long period of Nanyang, and the possibility of being discovered and aware will be much greater, and go to Tongguan to enter the beam, even if the beam is still a little uncertain about his attitude towards himself, but at least he should not have time to react by making up and passing the beam.
In addition, Jiang Feng also went to Luoyang and his party, and Chang Kun was already waiting for him in Luoyang.
He wants to accompany himself to the White Horse Temple, to officially build a bridge between himself and the White Horse Temple, and it can be regarded as an introduction for future cooperation.
In the next step, the lay disciples of the White Horse Temple will enter the Huzhou army in batches, which is also what Jiang Feng is happy to see, although the White Horse Temple is in the territory of Daliang, but it is not trusted by the Daliang military, and the Daxiangguo Temple firmly holds the trust of the Daliang military circles, which has never changed for so many years, and the White Horse Temple can no longer afford to wait.
The two donkeys walked into Huoqiu County in the night with broken footsteps, and there were five or six vigilant men behind the two donkeys.
The two men sitting on the donkeys had gloomy faces, but their eyes were always wandering over the city, but they finally took it back in disappointment.
Entering from the east gate, the whole street was ruined and broken, and there was a deathly silence, and there seemed to be a foul smell coming from nowhere, and occasionally two crows rested behind the collapsed house and let out two chilling calls.
"Erzhu, has this been the case for the past few months?" the man sitting on the donkey in the back said in a low, ghostly voice.
"Back to the second master, it's basically like this, there are only a few hundred people in the city, and now maybe some will come back one after another, but it's more than a thousand people, all of them are poor people who have nowhere to go, I don't know if they can survive this summer. He followed behind the donkey, and the leader of the several people walked two steps after him and replied.
"More than a thousand people?!Hehe, think my Zheng family has more than a thousand people in Huoqiu City, and now there are only a thousand people left in the huge Huoqiu City?"
"Second master, the ant thieves have besieged the city for several months, and they have long been impatient, and finally the city was broken for three days without sealing the knife, and the entire city was basically killed by the ant thieves, only some people ran out when the city was broken from the southwest corner, but most of our Zheng family lived in the east of the city, so ......"
The middle-aged man called Erzhu stroked the Hundred Refining Nine Ring Knife in his hand, and also sighed softly, his words were mixed with unwillingness, hatred, and anger, and there was also some helplessness.
"Hmph, ant thieves, these damn ant ant thieves!" the man on the donkey clenched his hands into fists, his arms were bruised, and his eyes almost burst into flames, "Ant thieves are hateful, but there are even more hateful people!"
The man holding the Hundred Refining Nine Ring Sword gestured to a few of his subordinates, and the rest began to disperse, searching forward on alert.
"Second brother, be cautious. The man sitting on the first donkey was slightly younger, his face was also full of grief and desolation, and his eyes were constantly looking for something in the surrounding streets, "This is Gu Dalin's cloth and silk village, and I also ordered two robes for him last year,...... , Sun Ji Nan Store, I once bought seven Nanzhu from him before the ant thieves besieged the city, and half of the money has not been paid to him yet, and now ......"
"That's enough, Gorou!" seemed to be a little angry, and the man on the donkey behind him had a fierce glint in his eyes, "If it weren't for the fact that the two Umeda families deliberately obstructed and let the Shouzhou army not get out of the Shouchun City Gate, how could our Zheng family be wiped out?"
"Second brother, there is a reason why the state army does not come out, there are tens of thousands of ant thieves, and there are only more than 10,000 state troops, and they have not fought for many years, so what has happened? If you really want to leave Shouchun City, it is no different from sending you to death? Not to mention that Anfeng City was breached, and the state army did not go, and the two Umeda families did not say anything,......" Gorou was also a little unwilling, but still defended himself.
"Hehe, then our Zheng family gives tens of thousands of stone corn to feed the dogs every year?" The middle-aged man showed a hideous and terrifying smile on his face, "What does it matter if Anfeng City is breached? It's just where the concubines and maidservants of their two Umeda families give birth to children, and their own sons and daughters-in-law are all in Shouchun City, of course they don't want to take risks, but what about our Zheng family? More than a thousand members of the Zheng family were buried in the hands of ant thieves like this?" )
