Chapter 519: Lin'an Changes
A few days after Huang Yaoshi and Lu Wushuang left, Zhu Ziliu also received a message from Master Yideng and ordered Zhu Ziliu to return to Dali as soon as possible, so Zhu Ziliu returned to Dali with Li Mochou, who was a bird.
And Hong Lingbo said goodbye to Li Mochou and returned to Guo Jing's army to meet her lover Zhuge Lichuan.
Wu Dunru delayed for a few more days, settled the follow-up matters of Tubo one by one, and was discussing the return itinerary with Cheng Ying, when he received urgent information from Guo Fu of Lin'an in the Southern Song Dynasty: There is a change in the Lin'an Palace, come quickly, and change later.
Wu Dunru didn't know what happened to make Guo Fu so nervous, and urgently recruited Wu Dunru to rush to Lin'an.
Wu Dunru and Cheng Ying could only give up the plan they had planned to travel along the way, and hurried to Lin'an.
After several years of fighting with the Mongol army, through accumulated military exploits, Guo Jing has been awarded the rank of general of the first rank of hussars, and Wu Dunru is also already the second rank of the auxiliary general.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the attitude towards Guo Jing's army was also divided into many completely different forces, Yan Guifei had completely taken refuge in Wu Dunru's side, and Song Lizong, under the influence of his favorite concubine Yan Guifei, was also only happy and carefree to do his own ********, too lazy to care about so many things.
Jia Rudao himself is talented, and there is Yan Guifei blowing the pillow wind in the ears of Song Lizong, and there is Wu Dunru's power to provide convenience for him.
After Jia Rudao had been in contact with Wu Dunru and others for a long time, he was as smart as him, and naturally saw the extraordinaryness of Wu Dunru and others. In the already devoted to Wu Dunru. I think he is a lord worthy of allegiance. Wholeheartedly began to serve Wu Dunru.
Moreover, Jia Rudao used his extraordinary skills to attract many young and promising scholars and ambitious ministers in the Southern Song Dynasty court to move closer to Wu Dunru's side.
There are also some people who are clear-sighted and careful, and they feel admiration and joy that Guo Jing, Wu Dunru, and others were able to turn the tide and support the collapse of the building, and to manage the people in an orderly manner, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
It's just that these people have been quietly in a wait-and-see state and have not expressed any opinions. Just wait for the opportunity to act.
The other part of the people were purely loyal to the ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty, and they felt in their hearts that Guo Jing's army was the army of the Great Song Dynasty, so they should obey the command of the Great Song Dynasty.
The main generals in Guo Jing's army never returned to Beijing to meet the emperor, but only sent Shi Yun to Lin'an every once in a while to report the military situation, ask for military rations and salaries, and accept rewards.
Moreover, the territory recaptured by Guo Jing's army from the Mongol Tatars, whether it was the appointment of officials or the collection of taxes, was handled by Guo Jing's army, which was essentially a state of separation.
Those ministers who were loyal to the emperor complained about the actions of Guo Jing and others, but Song Lizong did not have any dissatisfaction with this, and even praised Guo Jing, Wu Dunru and others for their bravery and good fighting in the court many times. Defeat the Mongol Tartars and regain lost territory. Yang Da Song Guowei.
Therefore, those loyal ministers who were loyal to the Southern Song Dynasty only kept asking Song Lizong to reprimand Guo Jing and Wu Dunru, but after being reprimanded by Song Lizong a few times, they had no choice but to give up and turn a blind eye.
Today's situation is much better than a few years ago, when the Mongols attacked all the time, and the country was about to die at any time, and the day was precarious!
And there are many people who are angry at Guo Jing's score, and they don't think about how much effort Guo Jing's army has paid, how many soldiers and soldiers have sacrificed, and what countless arduous battles have been experienced in exchange for these.
They are just envious and jealous of the vast and rich land and the huge benefits that come with it.
These people, led by Ma Tianji, Ding Daquan and Dong Songchen, were extremely dissatisfied with Guo Jing and others monopolizing such huge benefits, and gradually they became dissatisfied with Song Lizong's laissez-faire attitude towards Guo Jing and others.
But they couldn't do anything, there were secret hands of Wu Dunru's subordinates inside and outside the palace, whether it was Yan Guifei's side, or Jia Yidao's side, and even those talents who were valued by the prophetic Wu Dunru were protected by masters.
This makes Ma Tianji, Ding Daquan, and Dong Songchen be able to save their lives, and they have already tried their best and tried their best, not to mention thinking about what means to play a black hand, it is simply impossible.
If it continues to develop like this, it would be excellent if there was nothing to do in Xiang'an, but just recently, the atmosphere in Lin'an has become a little weird.
Guo Fu has been in Lin'an for more than half a year, and everything was going well, but in the past few days, there have been accidents one after another among the intelligence officers who have delivered news in the palace, and several people have suddenly heard nothing.
Although they are all developed grassroots intelligence officers, they should not make frequent mistakes, and there has been no news from Yan Guifei for several days.
All of this means that something must have happened in the palace, Guo Fu planned to go to the palace to inquire about the situation in person, but several subordinates wasted a lot of effort to persuade her.
In the end, two masters sneaked into the palace late at night to find out information, but they also never returned.
The next day, I heard the news that the emperor did not go to the early court, but sent a holy decree to the front, and urgently announced that Guo Jing, the general of the first rank hussar, Wu Dunru, the general of the auxiliary state, and the main generals of the front-line army immediately returned to the capital Lin'an.
After Guo Fu heard the news, she knew that the situation was serious, and now Guo Fu is no longer the coquettish lady who is just a brain, impulsive and stupid.
After years of experience, she became more calm at this critical moment, and she knew that this matter was not trivial, so she decisively ordered her intelligence officers to remain silent, and at the same time ordered the masters who protected important people to be careful, and warned Jia Yidao and other important people to be cautious. At the same time, Guo Fu sent a book to Guo Jing and Wu Dunru at the same time.
Just half a day after the first decree was sent, the second decree was sent, reportedly in harsher terms, and then the decree was pronounced one after another.
Many people of insight lamented in their hearts, is this another "thirteen gold medals"? Will the tragedy of Yue Feiyue's grandfather be repeated?
While the others were still waiting to see what was going on, the ministers of the Zhongjun faction couldn't sit still at first, and they were most worried about the emperor's comfort, so they were deeply respected by Song Lizong, and the high-ranking and powerful state lord and uncle jointly went to the palace to ask for a saint, but they were refused.
The national uncle and the uncle broke into the palace gate despite the obstruction, and were directly ordered to be killed by Dong Songchen. Even so, neither the emperor nor the queen came forward.
"It seems that something is really going on in this palace! Lin'an is going to be in chaos!" Guo Fu, who was secretly observing from a distance, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene, "I hope Brother Dunru can arrive as soon as possible!" )
