Chapter 32: Kingo
Fortunately, tonight things happened too hastily, and all parties were not prepared. As long as you control those important people in the city, under the leaderless dragons, no matter how many troops there are in the opposition, it will be useless!
When Dayu was in Dayu, Fan Zhen quelled the rebellion in Los Angeles and was still the Earth God Monarch, he once summed it up. The most important thing in launching a coup d'état is to take it by surprise.
Throughout history, modern times, China and foreign countries, the winning side of the coup d'état has never been the stronger side. Rather, it is the party that acts decisively and surprises.
For example, Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, and Kangxi arrested Aobai. There are countless examples of being famous and not being famous, and it can be seen that the originally weak side took the thief and the king by surprise. The coup d'état was successful all at once.
However, this is only the first stage of the coup. The most important thing is this, the second stage is different.
In fact, all coups don't seem to be fought on the battlefield most of the time, and the powerful won.
It's just a matter of seeing who makes fewer mistakes and acts more decisively.
Fan Bufan didn't look down on this Yu Jiye very much at the beginning, and led the troops to break into the palace recklessly, dragging mud and water.
If there is no Fan Bufan. may be able to compete with Xun Huai, a scholar.
However, in the hands of Fan Bufan, there is only one end.
Now, Fan Bufan issued these orders. But it is to control the situation in the entire capital, and even the military power.
Although the meritorious group is powerful, after all, Emperor Pingshi died too suddenly. From his death to now, it is only a short midnight effort.
Without preparation, it is difficult to mobilize all the forces.
As long as he controls the capital, he will be firmly seated as the emperor. Cao Cao can also coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
Control zhì capital. Fan Bufan can justifiably ascend to the throne. has a righteous name in hand.
There is still a thirty percent danger from the outside world, and what I am afraid of is the powerful faction outside. Under the pretext of Qingjun's side, or Fan Bufan's improper origin, etc., he led the army to the capital.
But. This is unlikely. In a unified dynasty, the orthodoxy of imperial power is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even if a large army comes to the capital, as long as it can't capture the capital in a short period of time, morale will collapse immediately.
What I'm afraid of is the change of Anshi, if the rebel army is all of different races, and there is a lack of reverence for the emperor of the court, it will be really dangerous.
Although there are many Wu people in the Great Chu army, there is definitely no prince as powerful as An Lushan. Temperance makes.
Several forbidden armies with edicts quickly surrounded the mansions of Jin Wuwei and other generals who held military power.
"Your Majesty, Zuo Jin Wuwei is here. A eunuch shouted.
"Xuan!"
Soon Hao Zhao, the general of Zuojin Wuwei, walked in in and was under house arrest for so many days. It's really a lot of panic.
"Hao Qing, I've wronged you these days!" Fan Bufan said with a smile: "You are the confidant of the first emperor, so you are entrusted with the weight of the forbidden army." It's just that I'm young and ignorant, and I entered the palace late, but I don't know ......."
Hearing this, Hao Zhao was even more flattered. Especially when I didn't know anything for so many days.
"Your Majesty is serious, after all, the incident happened in a hurry. No one expected that Yu Jiye, the anti-thief wolf ambition, would dare to lead troops to force the palace......"
Fan Bufan nodded with a smile, Emperor Pingshi is the rightful son of heaven. Plus ascending to the throne for seven or eight years. Naturally, there is a group of confidants. This party can sleep peacefully in the palace.
The military power in this Yanjing is naturally impossible to put in the hands of people who are not at ease.
It's just that. It was a dangerous night. Fan Bufan didn't dare to take risks, and the people in the capital who held the military power were all charged. After so many days, the investigation is clear. Naturally, let it go, and kill what should be killed!
Although the political affairs above the court. Fan Bufan was able to let go for the time being. However, the power of the military must be firmly grasped.
"Now although Yu Jiye has been ambushed, his comrades are still at large. Spread rumors everywhere, Hao Qing, what is your best plan?"
Hao Zhao naturally knew about the three clans' entry into the palace to study, although he didn't know what happened that night.
But he knew that Yu Jiye was not a rebellion, but wanted to support Fan Zong.
It's just that I didn't expect the young man in front of me to be so good at it. It was easy to kill Yu Jiye.
Therefore, after relieving himself, Hao Zhao said: "The forbidden army in the capital is divided into three parts. First of all, the guards in the palace of His Majesty, who have always been in charge of Shang Shuling......"
Fan Bufan immediately broke out in a cold sweat, Shang Shuling was known as the internal minister, and he mastered the military power of the palace. Doesn't that mean that even the abolition of the Son of Heaven is between his minds?
Fortunately, Xun Huai did not have such ambitions...... Or maybe not yet.
Ambition is something that grows step by step.
As long as you think about another world, the eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty controlled the Shence Army, and they manipulated the Son of Heaven, and even the entire Tang Dynasty, you can know a thing or two.
Think about it, Shang Shuling is in charge of Shang Shutai, and those attendants are also called Shang Shulang.
And the guards in the palace are almost all composed of these Shang scholars.
Thankfully, though. looked at the eldest of the three Suga brothers who followed behind him, and followed behind him.
Fan Bufan felt a little relieved in his heart, knowing that there was another group of people in the palace, which was not under the jurisdiction of Shang Shutai. This is about the most secret and powerful power in the palace!
"And then the Jin Wuwei forbidden army controlled by the minister and the former general. It is also composed of good families near the capital. For royal loyalty......"
Fan Bufan nodded, loyal to the royal family. No wonder that Yu Jiye raised troops and attacked the palace that night, and these Jin Wuwei did not move at all.
This Hao Zhao and others already had the idea of both ends of the first administration, or they should not be involved in the struggle for succession. Whoever is victorious will be loyal to whomever he is.
Hao Zhao himself knows this, and is now desperately trying to remedy it.
"However, there are only 3,000 guards in the palace, and the total number of Jin Wuwei is only 10,000. And it is mainly in charge of the security of the capital...... The real most powerful combat strength is the border army of the last guard......"
In the affairs of the world, there must be advantages and disadvantages.
At that time, Fan Yi wanted to ensure the combat effectiveness of the forbidden army in the capital. The border army took turns to go to Beijing to solve this problem.
But as two or three hundred years passed, the authority of the royal family declined. The power of the aristocratic group composed of meritorious and noble families increased. Huge influence among the border army. Gradually mastered the border army of the last guard.
The number and combat effectiveness of these border troops far exceeded those of the Jinwuwei and the Praetorian Guards in the Imperial Palace.
It's like this time, the two thousand people led by Yu Jiye. It's the border army of the last time.
Now Fan Bufan is in control of the palace guards, as well as the two groups of Jin Wuwei, but the border troops of the last time are not allowed to be stationed in the city.
That night, Fan Bufan also had no chance to control the border army generals.
Therefore, the biggest threat now is still Fanwei.
Fan Bufan listened and kept nodding. Naturally, he knew these things for a long time.
But listening to this Hao Zhao again, the most important thing is his attitude.
After all, this life. The roots are shallow, and they are bare-handed. In the bag, there are few talents who can be used.
"In this way, I give Hao Qing a task. I don't know if Hao Qing dares to go!" Fan Bufan smiled.
"What task?"
"You take the edict and take over the guards!" Fan Bufan said: "But don't move too much, after all, the guards are hesitating now......"
"Yes!" Hao Zhao ordered. Although this task seems dangerous, Yu Jiye is dead.
The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and his name has been decided. It's hard to incite a rebellion!
Besides, the heavy grain and grass needed by the guards are all in the hands of civilian officials. Lacks the leader of Yu Jiye. It was also difficult for the fan guards to rebel.
"Your Majesty has to be careful of being alone......" After a moment of silence, Hao Qing said.
"Who?"
"Zhang Nanfeng!"
Hearing this name, Liu Shengzhi frowned a little again.
The head of the Zhang family?
Several great families that have been inherited for thousands of years, even when the Great Chu was first built, were suppressed a little. But later, it successfully merged with the hero group.
"Don't worry. Zhang Nanfeng has been taken to the palace by me. Go and do your own thing!"
Hao Zhao was shocked, and the so-called received from the palace was naturally under house arrest.
I didn't expect Fan Bufan's methods to be so fast! This made Hao Zhao even more awe-inspiring.
Send Hao Zhao away. In a moment, Zhang Nanfeng was sent to Fan Bufan's side. It was the same means that night was lightning fast. He was taken to the palace and put under house arrest.
But this Zhang Nanfeng did not look wolf, and raised his hands. Like a phoenix spreading its wings, it looks extraordinary: "Minister, Zhang Nanfeng knocks on the Son of Heaven!"
Fan Bufan asked with a smile: "In this way, you also recognize me as the Son of Heaven?"
Zhang Nanfeng smiled freely: "Since Your Majesty has inherited the great treasure, the dragon qi is the clock." Recognized by the ancestral gods, he is naturally the Son of Heaven!"
No wonder these families have been able to survive for thousands of years, and have gone through so many dynasties.
"You stay in the palace for a few more days, don't run around. Save yourself any trouble, it's not good for you or me!" Fan Bufan said with a smile.
Such a big family, even he feels very tricky. There is no big mistake to be caught, unless Fan Bufan ignores it and slashes and kills, otherwise there is really no good way to take him.
I heard that there are some good books hidden in the palace, and the minister has always wanted to read them, but he didn't have the opportunity. Your Majesty, can you be gracious and let me go to the Secretariat's Pavilion to have a look?"
This is really a smart person! Fan Bufan smiled.
In the capital, all kinds of sounds rang all night. Most people don't know what's going on. They were all terrified, but few dared to go out to see what was going on.
You know, at this time, if you really hit the muzzle of the gun, then you can only die in vain.
Until the Jingyang bell rang, the ministers were summoned to the court. All the officials went out tremblingly, and saw that the situation was not very bad, except that the palace was much tighter than before, and there was nothing else.
It's a lot more relaxing!
However, after entering the Imperial Palace, I saw white yarns hanging everywhere, and I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart. His face changed drastically, and there was a buzzing sound everywhere.
When the prime minister Fu An stood up and said coldly: "Where is the imperial history in the palace?"
In a word, everyone in the hall was silent.
It is a big mistake to lose honor in the palace!
More importantly, as an old minister of the two dynasties, Volt An has outstanding prestige. It's enough to deter hundreds of officials. Especially at this time when the situation is unknown, no one wants to be a bird.
At this time, the more people find out that something is wrong. Not only did Fu'an come out, but even the Taifu Chen Chen, who rarely went to the court, also appeared in the court.
For a while, many people realized something!
"Majesty Xià had a big trip last night......"
One sentence went out, and the whole hall was in an uproar again. I couldn't suppress it this time.
"How could it be so sudden......"
"No wonder last night was so loud ......"
"No, the emperor is a big deal, and he didn't leave the crown prince. Who should inherit the throne......
All kinds of sounds rang out, like a vegetable market!
"Emperor Daxing left an edict ......"
When the noise slowly became quieter, Volvo An said unhurriedly: "Shang Shuling, announce the decree!"
At this time, Xun Huaifang stood up. Read the decree.
The ministers were quiet, and they were about to make noise again. After all, a clan that is not well-known and no one knows is going to be established as the Son of Heaven. This kind of thing, no matter how you look at it, is too abrupt.
"Don't make noise...... Taifu Chen Chen stood up, and with a gentle word, it was like magic, making the hall quiet.
"The Son of Heaven has no children, so you know that three young clans were selected to study in the palace. ”
"Yes,"
"Yes. ”
"I've heard ......"
"It's a pity that the time is too short, and His Majesty Xià went too abruptly......"
Taifu Chen Chen said to himself: "The clan Fan is extraordinary, young and handsome. Emperor Daxing called him blessed, had a wide range of heirs, and should be the son of heaven. ”
This sentence made the ministers a lot quieter, and many people felt that this reason was enough. And quite a strong reason.
Ordinary families also have to pay attention to having more children and more blessings, inheriting the family business.
Da Chu has been childless for three generations of emperors, and every time he chooses an heir from the clan, it is upside down.
Naturally, it made the ministers feel that it was no wonder that Emperor Daxing would look up to Fan Bufan among the three clans!
But no, to be able to give birth is more suitable for being an emperor than any talent. For a moment, the noise in the hall was quieter.
"A kingdom cannot be without a king for a day. Since I have received the edict, I will enter the palace to welcome the heir, canonize the crown prince, and then ascend the throne!"
With three old ministers coming forward, all the ministers in the court can be regarded as receiving orders.
However, at this time. However, He Sheng, a doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, stood up and shouted: "Then Taifu, what happened in the palace last night? Why hasn't King Chengjun come forward yet?"
Such a sentence made the hall chaotic again.
Chengjun Wang Yu Jiye is the head of the noble generals, why didn't he come forward for such a big thing? And what happened last night?
"King Chengjun rebelled and was executed...... Last night, the emperor made a big trip, and King Chengjun learned the news and immediately led 2,000 men and horses to attack the palace. Simply those sergeants were all Da Chu Zhongliang, and as soon as they saw the edict of Emperor Daxing, they immediately killed Yu Jiye anyway......"
Xun Huai opened his mouth and said. (To be continued......)
