Chapter 402: The Centrists Are Soft The frightened old-fashioned faction
Compared to the ultimate defensive force that appeared in the Star Leader, the Yuan family's approach was even more elusive. Obviously he has already gotten rid of the predicament, why do he still attack the Star Leader.
"The Yuan family is simply seeking their own death by doing this, Xingchen leads tens of thousands of people, and it is impossible for them to kill them all. In other words, even if they succeed this time, it is impossible to hide it!" Feng Xuanzhang spoke first.
"Even if they can hide it, the Yuan family is the first object of suspicion! Their hatred with Jiang Xingchen is too great!"
The marshal frowned and said, "Then are they stupid and crazy to do such a thing? Is it because of the grain planting, the old school can't bear it?"
The old marquis shook his head: "No! If the Yuan family does not solve the crisis, this time the matter of grain cultivation is suppressed, and he may take risks in order to get the full help of other conservative factions...... But when the crisis is solved, it is incomprehensible that he is still doing this, and there is no other explanation than that his brain is broken. ”
The Great Emperor knocked lightly on the table and said lightly: "The Yuan family is a top family, and Yuan Xixuan is the chief official of the aristocratic management department, may they be fools...... You should have seen Dingbeihou's suspicions, right?"
The marshal said: "Look, he suspects that the Yuan family has colluded with outsiders...... Otherwise, it is impossible to explain the thousands of heavily armored cavalry, and there are more than a dozen Yuan Qi masters!"
Feng Xuanzhang thought for a while and said different ideas: "If you collude with outsiders, they shouldn't show up, they just need to provide cover for outsiders, there's no need to do it yourself." ”
The old marquis said: "But there is really no way to explain those heavy armored cavalry and vitality masters!"
At this point in the analysis, everyone fell silent again. Look at the Emperor Qiankun.
The Great Emperor was equally silent, not speaking, frowning. Carefully analyzed the incident......
I don't know how long it took, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the main hall, and a man in black ran to the door of the main hall, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Emperor Qiyu, the old marquis of Jinhe is asking to see you outside!"
"Huh?" several people in the hall looked up at the same time, glancing at each other. They all showed doubts: "Why is this old man here, in terms of seniority, he is older than the Minister of Finance and Tang Tian, almost more than one hundred and ten years old." I haven't been careless for decades, and I've been at home every day!"
"Please!" the emperor was slightly stunned, immediately got up, and personally greeted him.
Marshal. Old Marquis. Feng Xuanzhang also got up, although this old man Jin doesn't care about anything, and his title is not top-notch, his qualifications are very old. And he is a representative of the centrists.
Soon, several people carried an old man with an old dragon bell into the main hall.
"Old Man Jin, why are you so idle today?" the Emperor led Old Man Jin to a huge chair.
Old Man Jin didn't sit down immediately, but took out a piece of white silk from his arms and handed it to the emperor.
"That's why I'm in a hurry. It was because Qian Liang sent me a letter of 100,000 urgent. Old Man Jin explained.
"Qian Liang!" the emperor frowned, to Qian Liang. He really doesn't have a good impression, he is obviously a centrist, but he has mixed up with Yuan Xixuan, and he has already fought openly and secretly with Jiang Xingchen several times.
The three marshals in the back also glanced at each other, not understanding why Old Man Jin mentioned Qian Liang, he didn't know that Qian Liang and Jiang Xingchen were mortal enemies.
The Emperor did not continue to answer, but asked Old Man Jin to sit down, and then opened the white silk to watch carefully.
"What?" Seeing the contents of the white silk, the Emperor frowned violently.
When the three marshals saw it, they also hurriedly stepped forward, looked at Bai Juan, and immediately let out an exclamation. No matter how much they suspected that the Yuan family was colluding with outsiders before, they couldn't believe that they actually betrayed the empire and took refuge in Xuanyuan Tianzong.
"This letter was found in the hotel where Yuan Xixuan lived......" Old Man Jin's breath was a little weak, and he explained slowly: "Yuan Xixuan went to Hongyuan City and did not inform Qian Liang. It was Qian Liang who found his traces, and saw that he had not returned for three days, so he went to check in the hotel, but he didn't expect to find this ......"
The emperor put down the white silk in his hand, exhaled a long breath, and said in a low voice: "I said why the Yuan family attacked the Star Leader, it turns out that the problem is here......"
The marshal groaned for a moment, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "How can the Yuan family solve the crisis so easily, I'm afraid that Xuanyuan Tianzong will help......! Otherwise, it was such a coincidence, as soon as their Yuan family made a move, someone immediately found the Yuanshi vein. ”
The old marquis said: "The Yuan family betrayed the empire and threw themselves into the Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect, it should be this Yuan Stone vein that played a role!"
Feng Xuanzhang frowned, and suddenly asked: "But this also doesn't make sense, the Yuan family betrayed the empire, why did they show up when they attacked the Star Leader, wouldn't it be better to hide?"
At these words, everyone was silent again, and Feng Xuanzhang was indeed right.
At this time, Old Man Jin spoke: "Emperor, marshal, do you think this letter is a little strange?"
"Oh, old man Jin, what do you say......" several people said in unison.
Old Man Jin took a breath and said, "This letter is too obvious, it gives me the feeling that someone deliberately left it for others to see!"
"Yes!" The Emperor frowned, such an important thing, even if Yuan Xixuan didn't carry it closely, he should keep it very secret. Why did Qian Liang see it so easily.......
Old Man Jin looked at the emperor and the others, and said, "Whether it is a false accusation or some other reason, I can't think of it...... However, it is mentioned that they want to attack the Star Realm, but they have to defend against it! The Emperor still hastened to inform ......"
The marshal said: "Old man Jin, in fact, they have already made a move against Xingchen Ling, a total of a thousand heavily armored knights, including Yuan Xixuan and more than a dozen masters of the Yuan Qi realm...... It's just that they didn't succeed!
"Ah~" It was Mr. Jin's turn to be stunned, he hadn't received any other news from Qian Liang. It is not surprising that Xuanyuan Tianzong has already made a move, after all, Qian Liang only discovered this letter three days later. But so many masters were wiped out, which is also ...... It's scary, isn't it?!, what the hell is the Star Leader? Or did the Emperor prepare in advance......
After being silent for a while, Old Man Jin suddenly changed his words and said, "Emperor." I think Qian Liang's ability is limited, and he is not suitable to be a lord in Hongyuan City, so he is more suitable to be an adjutant in the imperial capital!"
Such a big jump made the emperor not react for a while. The marshal and they were even more puzzled, why did Old Man Jin suddenly say this, what did he mean.
After thinking for a while, the emperor finally understood. Nodding with a smile, he said, "I will consider Old Man Jin's suggestion, Qian Liang found out that Yuan Xixuan betrayed, and immediately sent the news back." Very well done!"
As soon as the emperor said this, the marshal and others also understood the taste. Qian Liang is looking for Old Man Jin to come out, and he wants to draw a clear line with Yuan Xixuan, and they mixed together to deal with Jiang Xingchen in the previous paragraph. Now I see the betrayal of the Yuan family. I'm afraid of being implicated!
In addition, as the most senior figure in the middle of the school, Old Man Jin said that he would give up the star collar, even if he showed his attitude...... We have relented, and we will fully support the emperor in the future, and we must not be left behind in the matter of grain seeds......
After the old man Jin achieved his goal, he said goodbye and left, and left the palace. I couldn't help but let out a sigh. After being neutral, he finally threw himself into the Emperor. In the future, everyone's interests will depend on the distribution of the emperor.
And in the palace hall, the emperor and the marshal were overjoyed, and the centrists finally relented, which showed that the emperor had won a decisive victory.
Not only that, but the Yuan family betrayed, and the old school could not escape the blame, and if they were to investigate deeply, I am afraid that they would never be able to make waves in the future.
As for the little doubt before, it is not worth mentioning at all. Anyway, the people sent by the Yuan family and the Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect have already been completely destroyed in the Xingchen Domain, so why did the Yuan family show up, and why did the letter be put on the bright side.
"Hahahaha...... Jiang Xingchen, this kid, is really amazing, he is the right one!" the emperor couldn't help but laugh proudly, Jiang Xingchen's series of arrangements, the effect achieved was simply too good.
The marshal nodded again and again: "This kid should really come to the military department for a long time, this time it is really a decisive victory in the middle of the strategy, and every step has been arranged!"
Feng Xuanzhang smiled and said, "Lord Marshal, don't think about it, that kid doesn't want to fight at all...... I think he should come to the Imperial Academy, there are so many things, it's a pity not to teach the spread!"
The marshal said unhappily: "You don't talk nonsense, and you don't want to see if that kid is teaching people, or come to the military department." Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect has suffered huge losses this time, and we just took advantage of this opportunity to plan some counterattacks......"
"You two don't fight, it's useless, that kid wants to develop the territory in An'an!" the old marquis spoke.
The Emperor smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Marshal, prepare to seal up the Yuan family and mobilize the Praetorian Guards to secretly ...... In addition, the Fang family, the Chen family, and the Liu family...... A few heads of the house came to see me!"
Speaking of business, the marshal and Feng Xuanzhang didn't argue, their faces straightened, they answered, and turned to leave......
Late that night, tens of thousands of Praetorian Guards quietly surrounded the Yuan family, and the marshal personally entered, and hundreds of Yuan family members, including Yuan Hao, were taken away.
At the same time, more than a dozen old-fashioned family masters of the Fang family, the Liu family, and the Chen family bowed down and stood in the palace hall, looking at the two white silks from Dingbei Hou and Qian Liang, their faces were pale, sweating like rain, and several people's legs were trembling.
They are really frightened now, and they scolded the Yuan family in their hearts, betraying the empire, what a big crime this is, you Yuan family want to find death by yourself, you all know no. If you succeed, the old forces will definitely become the public enemies of the whole empire, and those families who have died will not care if we are innocent or not.
"Emperor! This is the Yuan family's own behavior, and it has nothing to do with us!"
"Emperor, the Yuan family does these things, we really don't know anything!"
"Emperor, the Yuan family has committed such a big crime, they should be beheaded all over the house......"
These families are busy drawing a line with the Yuan family one by one, for fear that they will be involved.
The emperor, the marshal, Feng Xuanzhang, and the old marquis couldn't help but smile when they looked at the noisy dozen family heads.
But at this moment, a family head suddenly said a word, and the smiles on the faces of the emperor disappeared in an instant......!
