In Liaodong, west of Jinzhou City, in a huge mansion, two strange people are sitting together secretly discussing something.

"How's it going?"

"It's ready, and when the prince's army arrives in five days, you can act."

......

In the evening, Jia Lian became very interesting, first fed Tian Zhen and Tian Feng, and then ran to find Ping'er and Hu Tianhu. Now I am sleeping sweetly with a beautiful woman.

Suddenly, Wang Xifeng pushed the door and walked in.

Jia Lian has actually woken up, although he doesn't know martial arts, but after all, he is a person who leads soldiers, and his basic vigilance Jia Lian has long been trained. It's just that I heard that it was Wang Xifeng who didn't move.

However, Jia Lian also knew that something was probably wrong. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Wang Xifeng to do such a thing of breaking into the room in the middle of the night.

"What's wrong?" By the time Wang Xifeng walked to the bedside, Ping'er and Jia Lian had already gotten up. Ping'er was also serving Jia Lian to get dressed.

"Qing'er just came with news from outside the second gate, Shen Yi arrived at home, saying that he had something urgent to see you." Wang Xifeng said with a calm face.

Jia Lian just nodded, waited for the clothes to be dressed, hugged Ping'er and Wang Xifeng and kissed them respectively. Then he calmly went out.

When Jia Lian left, Ping'er and Wang Xifeng glanced at each other. There was a look of worry in his eyes.

"What the hell is going on?" As soon as Jia Lian saw Shen Yi, he asked directly. He knew very well that if something didn't happen, he finally went home, and Shen Yi would definitely not come to bother him.

"Just now there is news from the Qianhu Institute in Jinzhou that the Yang family intends to open the west gate of Jinzhou in five days and let the Manchu army enter the city."

Jia Lian frowned: "Yang family? ”

Jia Lian was not surprised that someone in the Ningjin defense line in Liaodong had become a traitor. In the history books he once read, the reason why Jiannu fought all the way from Liaodong to the Central Plains during the Chongzhen period and swept through Shenzhou was that the traitors led the way and the party played a very important role.

Although that era was the last years of the dynasty, it is not the same as today's Dazheng, who has a clear society and stable politics. But there will still be those who rebel against the country and betray their ancestors.

However, Jia Lian really didn't expect that this time it would be the Yang family.

The Yang family is a big clan in Liaodong, and at the end of the Zhou Dynasty a hundred years ago, Yang Xuan, the ancestor of the Yang family, once led the Han people in Liaodong to resist the invasion of the Jiannu Nuzhen. Later, the army was defeated, and Yang Xuan was killed by Jiannu. He was posthumously named the king of Wuning by Zhou Sizong at that time.

Since then, the Yang family has taken the recovery of Liaodong as its own responsibility.

Later, after the founding of the Great Zheng Dynasty, Emperor Shengzu gave up continuing the Northern Expedition in consideration of the domestic situation. At that time, he was ready to cooperate with the army's Northern Expedition, and even had sent his clansmen deep into Liaodong, and the head of the Yang family, who died of grief, shouted three times before he died: out of the customs, out of the customs, out of the customs.

The children of the Yang family were also ambushed and killed by the Manchus. When Emperor Shengzu heard this, he was so grieved that he blamed himself for it for the rest of his life.

The remnants of the Yang family later dispersed and infiltrated Liaodong and hibernated. Yong'an Northern Expedition opened up the Ningjin defense line. The Yang family made great contributions, and the head of the family, Yang Hong, was named the Marquis of Changping by Emperor Taishang.

For more than ten years, the Yang family has become a well-known local family in Jinzhou. has the golden body of the ancestors, and has the military exploits, and it is almost infallible.

Even the governor of Liaodong and the commander of Guanning did not dare to provoke the Yang family easily. If it weren't for Jia Lian's repeated requests to keep an eye on everything in Liaodong, especially the big family in Ningjin, Jinyi Mansion would probably not pay attention to the Yang family.

I didn't expect to notice that something was wrong as soon as I noticed it.

"You confirm that it is the Yang family, the Yang family of Changping Hou. The stakes are high, but can't we make a mistake? ”

Shen Yi nodded and said with a wry smile: "Although Xia Guan was born in Jiangnan, he has also heard of Yang Hou's prestige for a long time. Zhao Guo, a thousand households in Jinzhou, personally confirmed the information and started an expedited 800-mile rush to send the information to Tianjin. ”

"Back to the Yamen"

Returning to the Yamen of the town government, Jia Lian personally summoned the messenger from Liaodong and carefully inquired about the specific situation again before confirming the authenticity of the matter.

After pacing back and forth in the lobby for a long time, Jia Lian asked, "Where is Yang Hou now?" ”

Shen Yiyi, who was about to fall asleep, hurriedly said: "In Shenjing, Yang Hou is very old, and he has been staying in Shenjing for more than these years. ”

Jia Lian nodded, although the Xingzhen Mansion Division had been canceled, Shen Yi's Xingzhen Mansion envoy still had it. That's why he was able to know the information of the thousand households in advance, but since it was the matter of the thousand households, Zhu Neng couldn't run.

Jia Lian quickly completed an urgent letter, signed it and handed it to Shen Yi: "Eight hundred miles to Shenjing urgently." In addition, I called Zhu Neng and Tian Li, and went to Jinzhou with me overnight. You stay in Tianjin, preside over the town government department, and once the emperor has new instructions, send them to Jinzhou immediately. ”

Shen Yi took the fold and bowed down and responded, "Don't worry, my lord." ”

The intelligence Qianhu Zhu Neng and the superintendent Qianhu Tian Li soon came to the hall of the town government department, where Jia Lian was already preparing to stop. Seeing that they arrived, they just said, "Get on the horse, say it on the way." Then he rode away.

As Jia Lian's brigade left the city, several spies hidden near the town government department also quickly dispersed.

While galloping on a horse, he finished explaining things to Zhu Neng and Tian Li. Jia Lian asked, "What do you think?" ”

Zhu Neng and Tian Li glanced at each other, and they both saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.

For many years, the biggest opponent of the Beizhen Fusi was the Manchu Shanpu Battalion and the Yuanjiaozi. Therefore, they are very familiar with Liaodong, and of course they know more about the situation of the Yang family than Jia Lian and Shen Yi.

Even the two of them knew that it was not too unusual for the Yang family to do such a thing. Because with the old Marquis Yang settling in Shenjing all the year round, the Yang clan in Liaodong has long been no longer what they were at the beginning.

But what if you know, the Yang family's power in Liaodong is beyond imagination. really does it to the Yang family, and a Beizhen government secretary really can't do it.

It's not that the Yang family dares to confront Tiqi, but the Yang family has too high a high opinion in Liaodong and even the entire Dazheng people. If you act rashly, I am afraid that there is a possibility of provoking a popular uprising.

Zhu Neng also told Jia Lian about the situation and actual worries. and said that if you want to move the Yang family, you must be fully prepared and not in a hurry.

felt Zhu Neng's kindness and knew that he was sincere for his own good. This is also the reason why Jia Lian didn't move anyone except for replacing the executioner.

The former boss may be old and a little dim, but there is absolutely no shortage of virtue and integrity. He has used people for more than ten years, and there will be no problem with virtue.

After listening to Zhu Neng's words, Jia Lian also stopped the galloping horse. The town government made the adults stop, and the brigade naturally stopped.

"I understand your concerns, but reality doesn't allow us to take our time. Now that the time has passed, in four days, the Yang family will open the gate of Jinzhou, Jinzhou will be lost, and the overall situation of Liaodong will be ruined. Not to mention that the good situation since Yong'an is in danger of collapsing, it will also affect the overall situation of this national war. Have you thought about these? ”

"This" Zhu Neng and Tian Li were both a little embarrassed. They really didn't think about it that much, and they were frightened when they heard about the Yang family.

"Therefore, this time the Yang family is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and we will also break through."

"No"
