Chapter Seventy-Two: The Imperial Meeting

Jingying.

Military camp in the Imperial City.

"What are you going to do?"

In the distance, a large group of people each held torches, armor and sharp, and came straight to the camp, and the Qian Zong, who guarded the door, leaned lazily in front of the door, and was shocked when he saw this.

He hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but saw that it was Chen Mao who was the leader, so he frowned: "Ning Yanghou, it's so late, with so many people and horses entering the imperial city, what are you doing here?" ”

After speaking, his eyes went down, and Mr. Qian suddenly took a few steps back.

Only then did he notice that the knife in Chen Mao's hand was full of coagulated blood.

"Camp check!"

After Chen Mao finished speaking, a general behind him who had returned from the victory of the Fujian counterinsurgency also sneered: "If you know each other, get out of the way, Sun Xianzong is dead." ”

When Mr. Qian heard this, his face was shocked, and he turned around and retreated.

Unexpectedly, Chen Mao rushed forward a few steps forward and stabbed him to death in the back.

Seeing Mr. Qian screaming and falling to the ground, Chen Mao looked back, kicked the general who had just spoken, and scolded: "Mouthy! What time is it? ”

"After following me for so long, don't you know the truth that too much talk is lost?"

The general was completely convinced by Chen Mao, and hurriedly got up, not daring to have the slightest dissatisfaction, and said in a loud voice: "The last general is guilty!" The last general is convicted! ”

"There is another case of this, military law is engaged!" Chen Mao nodded, then looked around at the subordinates behind him, and said loudly:

"Tonight's incident, no one in the know must be left, and tomorrow morning the meeting will not leak the slightest rumor, otherwise we will all have to fall to the ground."

"Got it?"

Everyone chimed in: "Understood! ”

"Follow me into the camp, Luo Tong will not leave any people on this list!" Chen Mao didn't say anything more, took the bloody Yanling knife and stepped in.

Soon, there was a lot of screaming in the camp.

At this time, Sun Jizong, who received the news, had already rushed over wearing armor, and heard the screams from the Beijing camp from a distance.

Originally, Sun Jizong was sleeping, and when he heard the news from the visitor, he couldn't believe it at the first time.

After all, in the eyes of many people, this is an ordinary night, and no one would have expected this night to be so bloody and full of changes.

A Beijing camp general wearing a shirt ran out of the camp tent in a hurry, and when he saw someone coming, he was overjoyed, and immediately shouted loudly: "Uncle Guo, go and report to the Queen Mother, Chen Mao made it-"

Several soldiers chased him out, and seeing that he was making a report, one of them took aim and threw the knife in his hand with all his might.

The person who shouted was Sun Xianzong's subordinate, and before he finished speaking, he fell down with a bang.

Sun Jizong was wondering, and then he suddenly found that he had a knife firmly stuck in his back.

In front of Sun Jizong, several soldiers rushed up and shouted to the general of the Beijing camp to dissect the corpse, and only stopped until he couldn't even see his face in the end.

"Presumptuous!"

"Stop it all!"

Sun Jizong drew his saber, and the soldiers of the Governor's Mansion who followed him also drew their weapons, and more of Chen Mao's subordinates ran out of the camp.

For a time, the two sides were tense.

Sun Jizong asked: "I am the uncle of the dynasty, Sun Jizong, who is in charge of the Houjun Governor's Mansion, whose subordinates are you, why do you kill people at will in the Beijing camp!" ”

"Is there still a royal law for acting like this?"

"You all have to rebel!"

Chen Mao's subordinates looked at each other one after another, but because there was a precedent when they entered the camp, they were holding bloody swords at the moment, standing in place without saying a word, with no expression on their faces.

It looks like a bunch of machines that only know how to kill.

Such a formation frightened the soldiers of the Governor's Mansion of the Later Army for a while, and they did not dare to step forward.

Chen Mao walked out of the camp and said from afar: "The word rebellion, Uncle Guo uses it too heavily, and I, Chen Mao, am the governor of Jingying under the emperor's order, so I am naturally acting on orders." ”

"Acting on orders, how can it be called a rebellion, whose rebellion is it, the Queen Mother's?"

Sun Jizong looked at the visitor coldly, and said with a smile: "What evidence can you kill more than a dozen Beijing generals in the imperial court, even if these evidences are true, you should let the courtiers meet and discuss the decision." ”

"Even if you Chen Mao have great rights, you can't kill people at night!"

Chen Mao stood in front of Sun Jizong and said: "It's not that I want to kill people, the whole army knows that I, Chen Mao, am just holding a banquet in the mansion on the first day of office to entertain them." ”

"It's a group of them, there are ghosts in their hearts, and they want to do it at the banquet, and I have no choice but to resist, so I killed them, which shows that these people are greedy and pervert the law, and dereliction of duty is true."

"Now you go and ask the people in Jingying to see who doesn't say that?"

"Just ask Uncle Dao, who wants to kill someone in their own house?" Chen Mao said, looking at Sun Jizong narrowly, and there was a posture that he would do it if he didn't agree.

Sun Jizong knew that he couldn't do it lightly.

If things are really as Chen Mao said, these people who killed all have relevant evidence, and they didn't kill one more, then there is really nothing he can do.

When he walked to the gate of Jingying, the scene in front of him made his eyes widen and he vomited on the spot.

In the Beijing camp, which was full of ** and mixed with military oil in the past, now there are corpses everywhere, and there are many short limbs, and after one night's hard work, the generals of the Sun family who were in power in the Beijing camp were all killed.

Some were wiped off their necks while they were asleep, some were hacked to death with knives under the struggle to resist, and a few ran out, but without exception, they were quickly caught up and killed.

Sun Jizong knew that it was useless to ask now.

The people who were alive in Jingying were all grass on the wall before, and they were all in a state of extreme fright, and most of them were stupid.

And since then, almost all the power in Beijing has been transferred to the Fujian generals, and these people are all Chen Mao's subordinates, how can they say that he is not?

The only way to do this is to wait for tomorrow's meeting.

......

Zhu Di gave the list to Chen Mao, one was to warn him to be careful and beware of being killed, and the other was also secretly telling Chen Mao to do it.

Chen Mao was a personal guard who followed Zhu Di in his early years, and he was familiar with this hint, coupled with Liu Ju's encouragement, so he chose to take control of the Beijing camp directly on the night of the first day with lightning speed.

In the entire Beijing camp, overnight, the generals of the Sun family were uprooted, and those who are now in power are either non-threatening people or Fujian generals who have been inserted into it.

And the power of Chen Mao's methods lies in the fact that everyone he killed has his own evidence of guilt, but Luo Tong was killed before he could deal with it.

The next day, the sleepy-eyed courtiers were all stunned when they heard the change and news.

No one expected that after a good night's sleep, Daming would actually change the sky.

Sun Ruowei sat behind the curtains, looking at Zhu Di, who was harmless to people and animals below, and regretted very much that he had put him on the throne, and he didn't dare to despise him anymore.

At her behest.

A courtier stood up and said: "The minister impeached the governor of Jingying, Ningyang Hou Chen Mao, and his actions ignored the laws of the imperial court, so that the laws do not exist, and the country will be in chaos!" ”

"The minister also impeached Chen Mao!" A spokesman stood up and said: "The incriminating evidence presented by Chen Mao is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and there is no proof of death, even if it is true, how is such an act of unauthorized murder different from rebellion?" ”

"Today he can kill many generals in the Beijing camp, and tomorrow he can kill into the palace, which is not good for His Majesty and the Queen Mother!"
