Chapter 969: Strangling
"The prince and the marquis have served both inside and outside, both civil and military, anticipating the victory of the enemy, being brave and arbitrary, saving the interests of the society and the righteousness, regardless of the crime of arbitrariness. Hege Changhu, swept thousands of miles, the name of Wu, died in a battle, now Huangze was in Kyushu, Xuanfeng negotiated outside the district, Xiangyang's seal, abolished and continued, the number of grace, too close to the heir......"
In front of the Jiangdong civil and military forces, Fan Tong read the prince's decree aloud.
Wang Jun's face was full of light, although he was almost seventy years old, he couldn't help but feel happy in the face of the prince's praise.
Sycophants also depend on who shoots them, right?
The prince does not go down to Jiangdong, this is the trust of Wang Jun.
In addition to gratitude and admiration in Wang Jun's heart, Jiangdong is the best choice if the current situation is not inferior.
Many times, the situation is not up to the people.
The prince's side is mixed with dragons and snakes, and Wang Jun's subordinates are not general, and once people on both sides come into contact, there will definitely be no shortage of right and wrong.
"Your Highness's grace, remember it in your heart!" Wang Jun arched his hand to the north.
The crown prince not only praised him, but also presented his achievements in governing Jiangdong to the emperor, which undoubtedly made Wang Jun one step closer to the Pingshang book.
Wang Jun suddenly felt that it was a blessing in the world to be able to serve under the father and son in this life.
"Your Highness is wise!" Jianye Wenwu also gave thanks, and a political crisis of no small size was eliminated.
The prince is not only wooing Wang Jun, but also Jiangdong Shimin.
The original resistance and vigilance suddenly disappeared.
"Sima Wang's thief, vainly trying to sow discord, the crime is unforgivable, immediately arrested, must be caught in one net!" Wang Jun waved his hand.
More than a dozen generals responded and said, "Command!" β
Guangling.
Sima Wang was looking forward to Yang Xu's southward journey to Jiangdong.
As long as he goes to Jiangdong, the contradiction with Wang Jun will intensify.
For this reason, Sima Wang also made other preparations, spreading rumors that Wang Jun was holding the prince Qingjun hostage, and secretly instigated the Jianye defenders to provoke their dissatisfaction.
also stepped on the spot in Jianye City in advance to prepare for the assassination of the prince.
Once Yang Xu was assassinated in Jianye, Wang Jun would not be able to get out of it anyway, and when the time came, Sima Wang led the dead soldiers to pounce on him, raised his arms and shouted, Wang Jun's men and horses would not rebel.
If you don't do it, you will wait to be liquidated.
"Is there any news coming back?" Sima Wang felt that he was one step away from success.
Jiangdong is in chaos, the Central Plains will also wait for the opportunity to move, and Daqin will also be in chaos.
In recent years, the emperor has vigorously cleaned up the noble clan, and it is not that no one secretly resents.
The so-called Haoqiang is the rise of a certain surname in a place, united by the clan as a link, and the imperial court can move away a few families headed by it, but it cannot move the entire clan.
Just like the three clans of the Taiyuan Wang clan, the Donghai Wang clan, and the Langya Wang clan in the Great Qin Dynasty, there are still a large number of people with the surname Wang in these three places, and they are all one family for three or four generations.
Therefore, if you want to completely eliminate the heroes of the Shi clan, it is simply a fool's dream.
Sima Wang knew better than anyone the power of the Shi clan.
They are like vines, clinging to the branches of Great Qin, cut off today, and growing again tomorrow.
"Master Qiqi, there is no news yet." The gray-haired dead man was loyal.
"Could something have happened?" Sima Wang's gaze turned to Chen Man.
After so many years of hiding in Tibet, Sima Wang was extremely alert and had a strong sense of danger.
Chen Man also looked puzzled, "It is said that the prince should have gone south five days ago, but if he doesn't go south at this time, could it be that he has a quarrel with Wang Jun?" β
He wouldn't have thought that Yang Xu would return to Daxing directly and let their calculations come to naught.
Sima Wang comforted himself, "Well, it must be so!" β
It may well be his last hope of a comeback.
Jinyiwei is biting harder and tighter, maybe he will come to the door tomorrow.
This is also the reason why Sima Wang is desperate.
When people are at the end of their rope, they often have hallucinations and think about everything for the better.
It also deprived him of his last chance to escape.
In the afternoon, the dead man rushed to report, "Master, the big thing is not good, Jianye 5,000 elites, 20,000 sailors, straight to Guangling City!" β
"How much?" Sima Wang suspected that he had misheard.
How many people are you in? Counting the Chen family's trilogy, there are only seven or eight hundred people in total, and Wang Jun, a madman, actually sent 25,000 people here?
Sima Wang got up from the soft couch and sat down dejectedly.
"Sima Gong, let's go!" Chen Man exclaimed.
"Let's go?" Sima Wang's eyes were bloodshot, and at this moment, he was like a mad dog forced into a corner, "Where can I go?" β
Jin Yiwei is investigating their traces in Xuzhou to the north.
Wang Jun's army of 25,000 came up from the west and south.
To the east is the sea, and all ships are searched by the city's shipping department.
Wang Jun came with such fanfare, in fact, he was telling Sima Wang, you can't escape.
Wang Jun either didn't make a move, or as soon as he made a move, it was like Mount Tai pressing the top, which made people feel extremely desperate.
More desperate than him is Chen Man, Chen Man put all his belongings on Sima Wang, but in exchange for such a result, it is better to be honest in the imperial examination or in the army.
The Shi family, which also has a grudge against Daqin, is now thriving.
After hearing that Shi Bao retreated, he issued a family order, strictly prohibiting his children and grandchildren from engaging in politics and concentrating on business.
Today's Shi family has become the richest man in Daqin, on the Silk Road, thirty percent of the goods come from the Shi family, and at the beginning of this year, the Shi family also donated 50,000 taels of gold to Daqin, shaking the world......
"Father, my son is ashamed of the Chen family!" Chen Man knelt on the ground.
Sima Wang's eyes were full of disdain, and he suddenly felt that the reason why he failed was because he didn't find a good collaborator, perhaps, the scholar clan Haoqiang didn't know how to rely on it at all.
"Death is death, what is there to fear, why should you be like this woman?"
Before the words fell, the sound of thunderous horses' hooves and the sonorous sound of armor were already remembered outside the courtyard.
Then, all sounds died down, as if the whole city had fallen silent.
It's dreary and suffocating.
There was no persuasion to surrender, and it was obvious that he wanted to kill them all......
"Death for the master!"
The gray-haired dead men raised their swords in front of Sima Wang.
"Yang thief, did you hear that? My Sima family still has heartfelt followers! Sima looked up to the sky and roared.
"Thief Yang, do you hearβ" Sima Wang's roar came to an abrupt halt.
A long sword pierced his chest.
Everyone looked at Chen Man standing behind Sima Wang in great surprise, "The Sima family is a sinner in China, and everyone will be punished!" You don't need to panic, you can live with this head! β
When Sima Wang fell, there was only pity and ridicule on his face.
The dead soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly there was a roar of rage, and a fire rose in the courtyard.
Swords and swords, bloody rain and bloody wind.
With a few "booms", all the courtyard walls were knocked down, and thousands of armor soldiers came from all sides, advancing step by step.
Whether it was Sima Wang's dead soldiers or Chen Man's troops, they were all strangled one by one......
