Chapter 247: Whose General Is This?
Qiu Shiliang, Zheng Zhu and Li Xun seemed to be the king who looked at the mung bean, and they were immediately eye-to-eye.
Zheng Note and Li Xun needed Qiu Shiliang to divide Wang Shoucheng's military power, and Qiu Shiliang also needed such a justifiable reason and needed the emperor's support.
Relying on himself alone, Qiu Shiliang didn't think he could compete with Wang Shoucheng. If it was just him, maybe this would be the end of his life, and he would have been suppressed under Wang Shoucheng and couldn't move in.
Now the two found him, just like a toad entering a well, just like a wild donkey entering a deserted beach, they almost hit it off and came together.
On September 26, the ninth year of Taihe, Wang Shoucheng, the lieutenant of the Right Shence Army, the general of the right guard, and the governor of the province, was reappointed as the commander of the Left and Right Shence Army and the commander of the Twelve Guards. Nominally, it is to show respect for him, but in fact, Wang Shoucheng, who has lost his military power, will no longer be prominent in the past, and will gradually become a loner.
And this is not the beginning of Li Ang's elimination of Wang Shoucheng, the focus is not only on cutting, but also on cutting.
If you don't get rid of Wang Shoucheng, how can you sit back and relax.
Before getting rid of Wang Shoucheng, Li Ang belittled Wei Yuan, Song Shenxi and others, and then gave them to death in the post station; After getting rid of Wei Yuan and others, he ordered Chen Hongzhi to be killed in the post station.
On the ninth day of October, Li Ang sent the eunuch Li Haogu to Wang Shoucheng's mansion, gave him a cup of poisoned wine, and ordered him to commit suicide.
At this time, Wang Shoucheng, who had completely lost power, had no way to resist the emperor's order, so he could only reluctantly drink poisoned wine and passed away with unwillingness and resentment.
Hearing the news of Wang Shoucheng's death, the government and the opposition all applauded. Since then, all the people who participated in the murder of Emperor Xianzong have been eliminated.
This was just the beginning, and after getting rid of Wang Shoucheng's party, Li Ang quickly targeted his original ally, Qiu Shiliang.
Zheng Zhu and Li Xun discussed, and after Zheng Zhu took office in Fengxiang, he selected hundreds of strong men, each carrying a white stick and a sharp axe, as personal soldiers.
The two agreed that on November 27, the ninth year of Taihe, when the imperial court buried Wang Shoucheng by the river, Zheng Zhujuan asked Tang Wenzong to approve the funeral with troops, so he could bring his own soldiers to the funeral. At the same time, Wenzong was invited to order all the eunuchs below the lieutenant of the Shence Army to go to the river to give Wang Shoucheng a funeral. At that time, Zheng Zhu ordered the tomb door to be closed, and ordered his own soldiers to kill the eunuchs with sharp axes, and all of them were killed.
The plan has been agreed, Li Xun and his comrades conspired and said: "If this plan succeeds, then all the credit for the elimination of the eunuchs will be attributed to Zheng Zhu, it is better to let Guo Xingyu and Wang Fan go to Suining and Hedong to take office, recruit more strong men as private soldiers, and at the same time mobilize the Jinwu soldiers under the command of Han Yue and the officials and soldiers of Yushitai and Jingzhao Mansion to be one step ahead of Zheng Zhu and eliminate the eunuchs in the capital, and then get rid of Zheng Zhu." ”
Guo Xingyu, the envoy of the Suining Jiedu, Wang Fan, the envoy of the Hedong Jiedu, Han Yue, the general of Zuojin Wuwei, Yin Luo Liyan, the Shao of Jingzhao, and Li Xiaoben, the Cheng of the Imperial History, were all officials trusted by Li Xun, so Li Xun only conspired with these people and the prime minister Shu Yuanyu, and the other officials of the imperial court did not know anything.
However, it was Li Xun's greed for merit and his reckless behavior that led to the bitter fruit of failure.
On November 21, Li Ang visited the Zichen Palace. After the hundred officials stood in shift, Han Yue, the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, did not report his safety according to the regulations, and he went out to play: "On the pomegranate tree in the backyard of Zuo Jinwu Yamen, I found that manna had come last night, which is a sign of auspiciousness, and I have reported to the emperor through the eunuchs guarding the palace gate last night. ”
After speaking, Han Yue bowed and danced, and bowed down again to congratulate.
Of course, Li Ang was prepared, this was the code he had negotiated with Li Xun and the others before.
In the name of Ganlu Xiangrui, to get rid of the eunuchs of the Shence Army.
Prime Minister Li Xun and others also took the opportunity to lead their ministers to congratulate Li Ang, and Shu Yuanyu and others took the opportunity to persuade Li Ang to watch in person, so as to inherit the auspicious gifts from God.
Of course, Li Ang did not allow anything, and after his permission, the hundred officials retired one after another and took up classes in the Hanyuan Palace.
Just after the hour, Li Ang took a soft sedan chair out of Zichen Gate, to Hanyuan Hall to ascend to the court, first ordered the prime minister and the officials of the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia to go to the backyard of Zuo Jinwu to inspect the nectar, and after a long time, the prime minister and the officials of the two provinces returned late.
"Why is it so late?" Leon sat on top and asked with a frown.
"The minister and everyone have just gone to check it, it is not like the real nectar, the minister thinks that it should not be announced to the world, otherwise the whole country will congratulate His Majesty, and how will the court deal with itself at that time?"
"How can there be such a thing?" Leon asked with a shocked expression.
His acting skills are very good, and even Qiu Shiliang and others were deceived by him.
After pondering for a while, Li Ang followed the steps discussed before, and ordered Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi to take the eunuchs to the backyard of the Zuo Jinwu Guard Office to take a closer look.
Qiu Shiliang and the others did not suspect him, so they hurried away.
Watching the backs of the eunuchs disappear from view, Li Xun let out a sigh of relief, followed by a burst of excitement.
The target has been tricked into going to the backyard of the Zuo Jinwu Guard's Office, and the matter is already half successful!
He immediately picked up his clothes, trotted over to summon Guo Xingyu and Wang Fan, and told them that His Majesty was waiting in Hanyuan Palace, and he should go and receive the order quickly.
At this time, hundreds of private soldiers recruited by the two were armed with weapons in their hands, standing outside the Danfeng Gate waiting for orders. After hearing Li Xun's words, Wang Fan was so nervous that his legs trembled, and he didn't dare to go forward, only Guo Xingyu bowed down to His Royal Highness Han Yuan to receive the order. As a result, only the Hedong soldiers led by Guo Xingyu came, and the Suining soldiers led by Wang Fan turned out to be ...... Pigeon too.
When Qiu Shiliang led the eunuchs to Zuo Jinwu's backyard to inspect the nectar, he found that Han Yue, the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, was so nervous that he was sweating all over, and his face was very ugly.
Of course, Qiu Shiliang saw Han Yue's nervousness, he couldn't help but feel nervous, and asked tentatively, "Why is the general's face so red?" ”
Han Yue's heart tightened, and he secretly muttered to himself, will the matter of hiding soldiers be discovered?
Thinking of the methods of those eunuchs, he was bitter in his gallbladder, weighed it for a long time and said: "I am not feeling well, and I was blown by the wind." ”
It doesn't matter if this heart is weak, and his face is yellow again.
"Then why is it yellow again?" Qiu Shiliang asked again.
"Cold-proof wax ......," Han Yue said for a long time.
The enemy was suspicious in his conscience, and when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong. He was suspicious, and when he looked left and right, a gust of wind blew up the tent in the courtyard, revealing a group of soldiers with weapons in their hands, and heard the sound of weapons colliding.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, you almost bluffed Qiu Shiliang out of the sky. He didn't hesitate to pull out his legs and run, only hating his father and mother for having two legs less.
If you don't run, you won't be able to live, so hurry up and yo-yo.
When the guard saw that he was about to run away, and was about to close the door, he was unexpectedly shouted by Qiu Shiliang: "I'm here to see manna, what are you going to do!" ”
Taking advantage of the soldier's frightened moment, Qiu Shiliang slipped out along the door that was not tightly closed.
He trotted back to Hanyuan Hall and shouted from afar, "Your Majesty! Big things are wrong! Someone is trying to rebel! ”
When Li Ang saw Qiu Shiliang and the others returning the same way, he already knew that something was wrong, and he was afraid that something had happened to Han Yue. Before the storm in his brain was finished, Li Xun rushed to the door of the palace and shouted: "Come to the palace to protect the emperor, and each person will be rewarded with a hundred dollars!" ”
There will be brave men under the heavy reward, and when the soldiers of the Golden Wuwei heard this, they immediately rushed to the palace.
"The matter is urgent, please go back to the palace quickly!"
The eunuchs shouted, took out a soft sedan chair, and forcibly supported Li Ang, who was half-pushed and half-pushed, to get on the sedan chair. They carried the sedan chair and ran wildly, breaking the wire net behind the Hanyuan Hall all the way and going north.
How could Li Xun let them run away? If this runs away and the emperor is controlled by the eunuchs, it will inevitably usher in a bloody purge. He rushed up desperately and grabbed Li Ang's soft sedan chair and said loudly: "My invitation to the government is not over yet, Your Majesty must not return to the palace!" ”
At this time, Jin Wubing had already ascended the Hanyuan Palace. At the same time, Luo Liyan led more than 300 soldiers from Jingzhao Mansion to patrol from the east, and Li Xiaoben led more than 200 Yushitai followers to rush from the west, and they all boarded the Hanyuan Hall and killed the eunuchs. The eunuchs were bleeding profusely, shouting injustice, and in an instant, more than a dozen people were killed and injured.
Li Ang's soft sedan chair went all the way north into the Xuanzheng Gate, and Li Xun was still following Li Ang, who was half-pushing and half-pushing, holding the soft sedan with one hand, shouting more urgently. Li Ang's heart was anxious, he had no time to care about Li Xun, and his mind was full of how to face Qiu Shiliang for a while. He was irritable, and scolded Li Xun loudly, and the eunuch Xi Zhirong, who heard Li Ang's reprimand, took the opportunity to punch Li Xun's chest, Li Xun was in pain, his hand was loosened, and he was knocked to the ground.
"It's over...... It's all over......" Li Xun looked at the open Xuanzheng Gate in despair, he knew that at this time, he was powerless to return to the sky, and there was no way to prevent the eunuchs from holding the emperor hostage and returning to the palace.
However, the despair did not last long, and Li Xun saw that the eunuchs carrying the soft sedan chair were pushed back by a group of soldiers in iron armor carrying spears and slapping their throats.
Li Xun struggled to get up, looked at the group of mighty and majestic soldiers, and couldn't help but sigh: "Whose general is this?" How brave can you be? ”
Soon, he knew that it was the former emperor Li Chun, who had been dead for a few years, who had been dead for a few years.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty? Li Xun knelt on the ground with a thud: "You...... You're not dead, are you? ”
"Nonsense, can I come and save you if I'm not dead?" Li Chun spit the toothpick in his mouth on the ground with a puff, and looked at Li Ang who was huddled on the soft sedan chair.
Li Chun stretched out his arm and slapped it on Li Ang's brain, making a snapping sound: "The two ends of the first mouse, how can it become a big tool?" ”
Li Ang didn't dare to speak, and turned his head to look at Qiu Shiliang again.
"Everyone, you're back just in time!" Qiu Shiliang didn't know what was going on, he immediately knelt down at Li Chun: "This Li Xun ...... Li Xun and Han Yue gathered together and plotted to rebel......"
"Don't say it, this good thing about nectar was planned by this kid Li Ang and Li Xun." Li Chun pointed at Li Ang and said.
Qiu Shiliang looked at Li Ang in disbelief, he never thought that the one who started it for a long time turned out to be the emperor beside him.
In his conscience, he really thought that Han Yue and the others had rebelled just now, and wanted to take the emperor back to the palace to take refuge for a while. Even if Jin Wuwei had already killed Hanyuan Palace, he was about to be in a different place, and he didn't forget to catch the emperor. And then what? The clown turned out to be myself? After a long time, the emperor wants to kill the eunuch?
"Your Majesty! What's wrong with the slave? Qiu Shiliang trembled and said, "Since Wang Shoucheng's death, have the slaves and maids ever behaved disrespectfully? ”
Li Ang thought for a moment and shook his head shamefully: "There is no such thing." ”
"Did that slave ever act beyond the bounds?" Qiu Shiliang asked again.
Li Ang still shook his head in shame: "Not yet." ”
"Does that slave have a rebellious move?" Qiu Shiliang asked again.
Seeing that Li Ang was still shaking his head, Li Xun immediately stepped forward and held Li Ang down, and said calmly: "There is no need." ”
"Unnecessary? I'll let you have no idea! Qiu Shiliang's eyes widened, and he reached out and punched Li Xun's chest.
Li Xun was in pain, he was beaten just now, and now he has a new injury, and this time he almost died.
"Alright, alright." Li Chun immediately pulled the two apart, "What are you fighting?" Right and wrong, there is a public opinion, neither of you can run! ”
In fact, the evaluation of Li Xun in history is obviously not very fair. Although Li Xun was indeed suspected of fighting for merit, in fact, the failure of the Manna Revolution was not Li Xun's fault, and he accounted for about 15 percent at most. If Li Ang could stand firmly next to Li Xun at that time, then it is not yet known who will die, at least Li Xun's side will definitely not fail.
And the evaluation in history is always for the monarch, and it is impossible to completely throw the pot to Li Ang, then Li Xun will become the substitute for Li Ang's reputation, and naturally, the pot will be carried by him.
Leon is this person...... There is more than enough to keep and not enough to develop. The indecision is even more excessive than Xiang Yu, and he has no insight into people. He was often suspicious of virtuous ministers; For mediocre ministers, they often have a heart of accommodation; As for the ministers, he often has a heart of experimentation. There is no assertiveness at all, and it is easy to be taken advantage of by villains. The main responsibility for the failure of the Manna Change is actually still with him Leon.
"You kid, the two ends of the first rat, you should fight!" Li Chun carried the belt of his trousers and passed the addiction of his ancestors.
Before the belt could be waved, it was pumped on the ass by Li Xiaosanyi's belt, and Tom screamed.
"Do you have a say in this?" Li Xiaosan snorted twice and stretched his belt: "What generation?" Grandpa Taizong hasn't spoken yet! ”
"Ah...... Grandpa Taizong. Li Chun rubbed his buttocks, and immediately lowered his eyebrows and came to Li Shimin's side: "Please, please reprimand this fool......"
There's no way, the older generation crushes people to death...... Filial piety in this year, that is not to lose the righteousness of heaven and earth, and this group of Anxi troops are all Li Xiaosan's, the situation is stronger than people, no matter what, we have to let our ancestors go first...... Let the ancestors speak first.
Left and right immediately stepped forward, moved a chair, and placed it behind Li Shimin.
Leon took a breath of dejection, he knew that he was about to be scolded.
