Chapter Twenty-Four: Eliminate Yin Han First, Then Destroy Lu Zhang (1)
The conflict and fighting in the hall were quelled as soon as they began, and no one in the entire palace knew what was happening inside except for the people on both sides who were ambushed outside the hall.
"Pedant, now Yin, Han, Zhang, and Lu have all been eliminated. As long as the so-called four major families of the Shangdang are destroyed, we can better control the Shangdang, and also remove obstacles for many of our measures in the future. ”
Zhao Yang asked Liao Hua to send people to urge the subordinates who were still outside the city to enter the city to take over the city defense and military camp, and then said to Wu Yong beside him.
Wu pinched his short beard and pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked to the door to observe the situation outside, then closed the door and turned around and said: "What the lord said is very true, just now Xiao Ke asked those officials who were captured by us, and they told me some inside stories about this. But I think the most important thing we need to do now is not to let the feast be quiet for too long. ”
Zhao Yang was stunned for a moment and then suddenly said, "Yes! Right! Right! Luckily, the pedant reminded me in time, otherwise it would have been a big deal. Who's... Don't be stunned, Haoran, you hurry up and put on Zhang Lan's official uniform, and you will wear Yin Min's in the future, after all, you will be my county in the future, Yuan Jian, you will wear this road, Jun Fan, Han Yu's belongs to you, and you will be everyone's gong in the future. The rest of the people hurriedly sat down and prepared their seats, imitating the seating order in the previous banquet, and we continued the feast. Haoran waited for everyone to finish their seats, and you asked the servants in the house to refill some drinks for everyone, and everyone ate and drank to their heart's content, making the atmosphere as lively as possible! ”
Although everyone hasn't fully figured out why Zhao Yang did this, it doesn't prevent them from carrying out the order, and after everyone is dressed up for a while, Zhao Hai took the lead in shouting at everyone to fight for wine, not to mention that his acting skills are not much worse than Wang Baoqiang in the future generations. At first, everyone was a little restrained, but seeing Zhao Hai's performance and Zhao Yang's permission, they were also let go, and soon the atmosphere reached a peak.
Zhao Hai came to the door at this time and shouted outside: "Someone is coming, hurry up and serve some more drinks to Lao Tzu, if grandma's is too unhappy, see how I clean you up." ”
After yelling, he hurriedly ran back to his seat and sat down, bowed his head and smirked, the lights in the hall were dimmed a lot by Wu Yong, if it wasn't for the deliberate observation, no one believed that everyone who was doing it now had been replaced. Everyone was very satisfied with Zhao Hai's performance just now, everyone knew that Zhang Lan was this arrogant and domineering character, as long as he behaved more arrogantly, the more he could dispel the doubts of others.
Soon there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, and everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and supported their foreheads. If you hold a pipa in your hand, it really feels like you're still holding a pipa and half covering your face'. At this time, a group of maids walked in outside the door, and after they went to the hall, they changed the drinks for everyone and then slowly retreated, and they did not see that the 'adults' in their eyes were already things and people.
After all the maids walked away, Zhao Yang ordered the lively atmosphere not to stop, anyway, all the people present were their own brothers, and everyone had no previous sense of restraint, and they all opened their hearts to eat and drink with each other. Zhao Yang motioned for Wu Yong to continue with what he had just thought.
After Wu Yong came to the left and sat down, he organized his language a little and said: "What the lord did just now was very correct, and our Huo and Yin Min and others were only half a cup of tea, and we had arrangements in advance, so we couldn't let the news get out." But that doesn't mean we have absolute confidentiality. However, the operation of the lord just now provided a good cover for our next moves, and we also fought for a long time. ”
After Wu Yong finished speaking, he took a sip of wine and moistened his thirsty throat and continued: "I learned through other officials that this Hongmen Banquet was initiated by Yin Min, that is, when we sent someone to inform them of our arrival earlier, at that time they did not have a way to deal with us and quarreled, and later it was Han Yu who proposed to follow Xiang Yu's Hongmen Banquet back then to control or eradicate the method of controlling or eradicating us, so I planned four steps for our next moves.
First, just now the lord deliberately asked the servants in the palace to exchange for drinks, just to make them believe that the scene in the hall has never changed, so when it was three o'clock in the morning, he sent them to Yin, Lu, Zhang, and Han's homes to inform their families, saying that they had drunk a few more glasses when they were happy with Lord Taishou today, and Lord Taishou stayed in the county guard mansion to rest and appease their families, presumably they had done the same before, and Xiao Ke guaranteed that they would not see any clues.
Second, urgently mobilize our soldiers and horses to take the corpses of Yin Min and Han Yu to take advantage of the cover of the night, put them on the way home, and then disguise themselves as bandits to surround the mansions of Yin and Han, and wait until dawn to rush in. Then arrange for someone to perform in our house, as long as the people below see the two of them leaving in a hurry. We can also better dissociate ourselves from the Yin and Zhang family annihilation incidents. Since they like to play the role of bandits, let's treat them the way they do.
Thirdly, before entering the city, I sent fast horses to inform Pengju and them, presumably they should have gone to Tunliu now, and it is expected that they will be able to reach Changzhi at noon tomorrow. When the time comes, let Pengju really take over the city and defend the four gates. Then send Jun Fan to take people to visit the people to check the people's situation, and after we have the evidence of the handle of the remaining two families, we will send someone to post a notice in the city, saying that you want to go to the court to judge the case, and publicly sue the Lu and Zhang families.
Fourth, wait until the Lu Zhang family makes a move, no matter how big their action is. At that time, I immediately asked Pengju to lead the army to raid the house and destroy the door, and then we made an example to announce the crimes of these two families to the world, and finally publicly executed all the members of these two families in the vegetable market, and then recruited some small families for my use. At that time, we will abolish all the previous excesses and miscellaneous taxes, and re-enact new regulations to restrain the people.
If these four steps can be successfully completed, I think the lord will soon be able to win the hearts and minds of the people for a long time, and I believe that it will not be long before the lord's reputation in the party will reach the point where no one can shake it. ”
After listening to Wu's four-step plan, Zhao Yang was also very excited in his heart, but he didn't expect him to think about it comprehensively in such a short period of time. These four steps are interlocking, and some of them are not perfect after thinking about it carefully.
"These four steps of the pedant are quite good, but I have an idea to leave the bodies of Lu Zhang and the others at the foot of a mountain in advance, preferably not far from the cottage of some bandits. Then when the case was decided in Shengtang, someone was arranged to pretend to be Lu Zhang and the two of them rushed away from the West Gate, and then as long as the pretending person changed his clothes and came back after dark when no one was around. In this way, the scene of the two absconding and being killed by the bandits became a scene. After the execution of the Lu and Zhang families, let's go to the robbers to gain fame and fortune," Zhao Yang put forward his own suggestion, and Wu Yong clapped his hands after hearing it.
Zhao Hai and the others were covered in a cold sweat when they heard the words of these two people, I lost ~ These two yin people are fortunately their own people, otherwise they would not know how they didn't get it if they were buried, and they should pay attention to their words and deeds in the future, and they must not provoke them.
