Verse 17: Who's Afraid, Who's Confused (Part 2)
When one secret letter after another was sent from Yunshan City to the hands of the Great Prince, Jintong County also began to be uneasy, and the Qingtian Divine Sect finally began to make a move. The dark battle between the Qingtian Haoyang Cavalry and the Black Red Cloud Army has put the Qingtian Divine Sect at a disadvantage, and the Dao Sect powerhouses and those hidden powerhouses have been forced to not make a move.
After the Qingtian Divine Sect announced that a priest in Jintong City was innocently killed, it sent out the Divine Cult cavalry to attack the southernmost city of Jintong County, Wuyan City, but the attack of the Qingtian Divine Sect came suddenly, but it still did not occupy the Silent City in the south of Jintong County, because the Great Song Dynasty had already taken precautions.
Whether it was the Great Song Army or the newly built army of the Second Prince, they all made the most perfect strategy, so that the Qingtian Divine Sect suffered heavy losses again, but the Great Song Dynasty also lost some soldiers and horses, and the new army of the Second Prince also lost about 5,000 people.
The attack of the Qingtian Divine Sect finally made the Great Song Dynasty completely chaotic, and the battlefield of the northern and southern fronts made the logistics line of the Great Song Dynasty under serious pressure, and the Wuhou of the Military Aircraft Department has now completely lived in the Military Aircraft Department to deal with military affairs, and the northern front is fortunately with the King of Qi pressing the formation, so that the wilderness cannot move, but the southern front does not have a famous general in charge, which makes people extremely worried.
At the end of October, a decree from the imperial palace directly allowed Shenwu Hou, the most dedicated disciple of King Qi, to be stationed on the southern front as the general who led the south, and the name of Zi also appeared on the holy decree as a deputy general to assist Shenwu Hou to lead the southern front to resist the attack of the Qingtian Divine Sect.
For the attack of the Qingtian Divine Sect, the northern front is surprisingly calm now, King Qi stood in the middle of the camp, looked at the map in front of him, silent, and the expression on his face was extremely serious, King Qi was confused and thinking, and the tribe above the wilderness only fell silent after the attack at the beginning of the month, and looked at the Great Song in the wilderness.
At the same time, the northern part of the Buddha country and the wilderness are intertwined, the Buddha country has entered the Western Desert and occupies the main artery of the northern wilderness into the Western Desert, if it were not for the special geography and climate of the Western Desert, the wilderness has already driven straight into the Buddha capital, in the camp of the Buddha army, Wu Yuanhua, the new general of the Buddha country, looked at the map, and was afraid in his heart, and made up his mind to protect the Buddha country and resist the attack of the wilderness.
Wu Yuanhua is the new famous general of the Buddha country, where he took over the army of the Buddha country, and it showed his prominence, but also made Yuan Qi take a fancy to recommend and the emperor to control the Buddha country, and now there are 100,000 troops, whether it is the court or the people, for this new general, there is a Shi Lang nickname, and Wu Yuanhua did not let the gate down.
The peace talks of the seven princes in the Buddha country are still deadlocked, the eldest prince is embarrassed to investigate and deal with the corruption case in Yunzhou, and the second prince is extremely cautious in secretly visiting new officials in various places in Jintong County.
They are hesitating, they are confused, they are even more afraid, they are hesitant about their own political achievements, they are confused about the unknown future, and they are afraid of the Daomen attack.
At the beginning of November, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty issued a national preparation for war and began to recruit civilians into the army in the north and south to deal with the war.
It's just that on the contrary, the academy is extremely silent during this special period, whether it is the master or Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Feng, they didn't say anything, and some of the ministers were indignant, but in the end, they only sighed, because the academy was too special.
After the court meeting, a secret letter in Beizhou entered the Senate, and then entered the palace in less than a quarter of an hour, and was placed on the dragon case in the imperial study, and at the same time, two secret letters also appeared on the desk of the head of the Supervision Yuan, one of which was Yunzhou, and the other was signed Fan Yao.
At this time, in Yunshan City, Fan Yao sat in the room, bowed his head and pondered, the corruption situation in Yunshan City that he knew had been sent out, and after three days, whether it was the eldest prince or the Supervision Yuan, there was still no movement, Fan Yao didn't know what to do now, the collusion between the famous families and officials in Yunshan City made Fan Yao not expect it to be so huge and serious, not to mention the peace period of the Great Song Dynasty, to say that the taxes of the four city gates are about five times that of the high imperial court.
And some of the other five families have had many inside stories of transactions and defrauding civilians between the children of the five major families and officials, and it has been unbelievable that neither Fan Yao nor the cronies of the eldest prince have witnessed more than a dozen cases in the past few days.
It's just that these have been reported to the Great Prince and the Supervision Yuan, but there is still no movement over there, as if they haven't seen it at all.
Knock knock....
A knock on the door interrupted Fan Yao's somewhat irritated thoughts.
"Come in," Fan Yao said
The door opened, and a confidant of the eldest prince walked in and saluted, and then said, "Your Highness has sent a letter, saying that we should leave Yunshan City and go to the next city."
Fan Yao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and didn't say anything.
"Master Fan, leave tomorrow morning," the cronie said and left.
Fan Yao watched the cronie leave without speaking, thinking in his heart: "This is the eldest prince asking us to leave, and the matter of Yunshan City has not yet been exposed, it must be the Senate, not an order from the emperor" Fan Yao got up and was just about to tidy up his clothes, when suddenly a swallow flew in from the window and landed on the table.
Fan Yao picked up the paper, opened it, and saw that the class inside did not speak, but lit a candle and burned it.
At the same time, someone from the Wang family, the Li family, and the Yunhou mansion in Yunshan City visited at the same time, and the three heads of the family hurriedly welcomed the head of the family into the study after seeing the token sent by the next person. The servants of the three families and some children of the family did not know the token, but as the head of the family, they knew that it was a token belonging to the Zongren Mansion and a token belonging to the emperor's cronies.
When the three of them left the three families and disappeared into Yunshan City, the heads of the three families immediately convened important people in the family to hold a family meeting. No one knows the content of the meeting, but after the meeting, the three families, whether they are branches or main veins, began to prohibit leaving the palace, and the three families at the same time took out 100,000 silver and donations on top of their own accounts to give to the northern front.
After the three of them, the three family masters arrived at the Yunzhou official mansion, when they saw the person standing in the middle wearing the official robe of the Zongren Mansion, their whole bodies trembled and they were afraid, and the Yunzhou Taishou knelt on the ground at this time, trembling all over, and they were afraid in their hearts, and they couldn't describe the sweat of that place in words, showing that the Taishou had been kneeling for a long time.
At the same time, the other two families did not belong to the hereditary marquis family of the Taizu period, but they did not disappear, and both the head of the family and the eldest son were extremely confused towards some questions.
At this time, the officials and cultivators belonging to the Zongren Mansion had already arrived in Yunshan City, and their goal was to assist the officials of the Taiqing Temple in investigating and dealing with corruption.
Zongrenfu's move is not inferior to that of the Supervision Yuan, because Zongrenfu is a sharp weapon in the hands of the emperor, and this sharp weapon has mastered some of the cultivators who serve the royal family in the Great Song Dynasty, and the other part is that all the cultivators of the Great Song Dynasty are in the book of the Zongren Mansion.
The eldest prince in the city of Yunzhou Prefecture sat on the desk and looked at the Zongren Mansion, which made his heart a little desolate, there was also regret, and there was even more awe, the Zongren Mansion also served the royal family, and many of the royal children who had entered the Zongren Mansion were basically abolished.
"Why the Marquis of Shan and the Marquis of Dian," the eldest prince asked, but there was a little helplessness in his voice.
"It was specified by the Lanwan Secret Realm and the Supervision Yuan," the envoy from the Sect Mansion said.
Shanhou and Dianhou are both one of the forces that support the eldest prince in Yunzhou, but now they are about to be uprooted, which makes the eldest prince extremely unhappy, there are five families in Yunshan City, among which in addition to Yunhou is the support of the second prince, the other elder of the wang family is the support of the seventh prince.
The eldest prince was stunned when he heard this, and then he only smiled bitterly, if it was just the Supervision Yuan, he would ask King Jin to help him, but now there is a shot from the Lanwan Secret Realm, there is no way over there, because there is his grandfather, grandfather, and so many emperors and kings.
"The eldest prince is not worried, the fifty-seven noble clans in Yunzhou will be reduced to twenty-seven wang clans, let you balance," the Zongren Mansion envoy said with a smile;
The eldest prince was even more stunned after hearing this, and then did not speak, and the envoy of the Zongren Mansion saw that the prince did not speak and bowed and left the hall.
Lin Lao walked in from the back hall, looked at the left Zongren Mansion, and then looked at the eldest prince, and then sighed, the prince of the Great Song Dynasty seems to be noble, but the identity of the prince is like an iron chain trapping people, maybe the reason why every emperor and the four kings of the Great Song Dynasty is basically Ren Jun is the lord of Zhongxing is this reason.
The sky was gradually obscured by dark clouds, and the whole world was confused, and some people were afraid, but in the end, who was confused and who was afraid couldn't tell.
The head of the Sakura Mountain Range looked through the Haoyang Hall and looked at the goddess who was walking towards the agreed step by step, his eyes were complicated and gratified.
