664 [How is it in the world] (thirteen)
Liu Xiang was about to defend himself, but Wang Pingzhang did not want Pei Yue to take the topic astray. He stared at this young but difficult opponent and said: "The incident happened suddenly, and I have the right to make a temporary decision. Temporarily removing you from military service is not
aimed at, but
In order to ensure the stability of the situation, I will not embarrass you. Wu Dingwei and Zangfengwei will immediately return to the Beiying garrison. They are not allowed to move unless they are ordered to do so. They will command the first-level military generals to accompany them back to Beijing. As for you, you will be under the care of His Highness for the time being.
.”
Not only did Liu Xiang breathe a sigh of relief, but Han Gongduan also nodded and said: "This is a mature and prudent move, which is quite appropriate."
The eldest prince knew that the person with the most weight here was Wang Pingzhang. Because Emperor Kaiping was unconscious, this old man could command the imperial guards and imperial troops, which meant that the palace was actually under Wang Pingzhang's control.
He turned to look at Pei Yue and said sincerely: "Pei Yue, I promise that no one will slander or frame you, let alone cause you any harm. Please feel aggrieved for a while."
The reason why Liu Xian's attitude was so mild was that, on the one hand, the two had had some exchanges in Beiying before, and his view of Pei Yue had greatly changed. On the other hand, the situation in front of him was too dangerous, and he had no choice but to do so.
Don't lower your attitude.
Although the palace is guarded by the Forbidden Army, there are Wuding Guards inside Xingliang City and Zangfeng Guards outside the city. These two elite armies are direct descendants of Pei Yue, and all the generals are his confidants. If this young dignitary is forced into a hurry,
Well, if there is a drama of overnight quarrel, no one can afford such an outcome.
If you want to send Emperor Kaiping back to Kyoto safely, you must first appease Pei Yue. To put it bluntly, you must remove his military power.
Facing the eldest prince's almost pleading attitude, Pei Yue unexpectedly shook his head and said: "Your Highness, please forgive me for not being able to agree."
Wang Pingzhang said coldly: "Are you going to rebel?"
As these words came out, the commander of the imperial guards and the generals of the imperial army who were standing outside walked in and stood guard on both sides of the gate, looking at Pei Yue with cold eyes. They had listened to all the conversations outside, and they had no idea what Wang Pingzhang was saying.
They agreed very much with the idea. In addition, the old man was Zuo Junji who was in charge of a million-strong army in Daliang. Since Emperor Kaiping didn't know the personnel, of course they trusted Wang Pingzhang even more.
Pei Yue glanced at them indifferently. From the momentum and posture of these two people, he could tell that they must be martial arts masters.
Even when he was in his prime, he might not be able to easily defeat the two of them together, not to mention that he is now injured and has difficulty moving.
However, Pei Yue was calm and said calmly: "Your Majesty has treated me with great kindness. He promoted me from a humble commoner to a second-class prince. I will always bear this kindness in mind. Now that Your Majesty is in crisis, except for the three
Apart from Your Highness, I can’t trust anyone else. This
This is the emperor's palace. Logically speaking, food and drinks must go through countless inspections, but the poisoner can get through unimpeded. Frankly speaking, each of you is suspected. Wei Guogong, you don't want to treat His Majesty as soon as possible, but you bite me.
Fang, what’s your intention?”
Wang Pingzhang forcibly controlled himself not to look at the comatose Emperor Kaiping, raised his hand and said: "Get Pei Yue!"
Everyone else was worried about the two elite Beijing armies inside and outside the city, but Wang Pingzhang knew how to capture the thief and capture the king. As long as he had Pei Yue in the palm of his hand, Qin Xian or Wei Rui, how could they dare to directly launch an army without knowing the truth?
rebel?
Pei Yue is their backbone. After he falls, the rest will not be a concern. No matter how powerful the Zangfeng Guards are, they are nothing more than a bunch of decorations.
The eldest prince stood between Pei Yue and everyone. He glanced at the two fierce generals walking towards him and said solemnly: "Pei Yue, I swear in the name of the ancestors of the Tian family that I will never be framed.
You. Don’t act impulsively and listen to me for once!”
Pei Yue looked at him calmly, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Thank you."
The next moment, a sudden change occurred.
A strong wind broke through the door, and everyone's eyes were blurred. Then they saw a young woman standing solemnly, with a spear in her hand forcing the leader of the imperial guards and the general of the imperial army to the wall, with the tip of the spear hanging in front of the two people. No matter who it was,
If he dares to take even one step, the tip of the spear will pierce his throat.
Ye Qi looked at them coldly and said, "If you don't want to die, don't move."
Immediately, the sound of footsteps echoed outside the house, and then seven generals filed in.
Qin Xian and Wei Rui were in the lead, followed by Tang Linfen, Meng Longfu, Xue Meng, Luo Kedi and Fu Hongzhi.
Qin Xian bowed and said in salute: "Your Majesty, Wu Dingwei has taken control of the outside of the palace. At the same time, the city gates have been opened. The Zangfeng Guards are guarding all the main roads in the city."
Everyone was shocked, and the eldest prince looked at Pei Yue in disbelief.
Han Gongduan said sternly: "Pei Yue, do you really want to rebel?"
The Dongfu government official was unafraid. Ye Qi and the seven military generals were not in his eyes at all. He was staring at Pei Yue. As long as this young powerful man said one treasonous word from his mouth, he would kill him even if he risked his life.
Face full of blood.
Pei Yue shook his head and said: "Han Zhengzheng, I have made it very clear just now. First, an assassin appeared in the Circular Mound Altar, and then someone poisoned him in the palace. This shows that this is not an accident, and there must be something unbearable to say later.
Now I can't trust Wei Guogong, so I can only choose to protect His Majesty myself, and I must find out the mastermind behind these things."
Han Gongduan said angrily: "Are you, Pei Yue, the only loyal minister in Daliang? Do you know what you are doing? No matter whether His Majesty's poisoning has anything to do with you or not, if you insist on going your own way tonight, there is only death waiting for you!"
Pei Yue said firmly: "Those matters will be discussed after His Majesty wakes up. At least for now, I cannot leave my fate in the hands of Duke Wei."
Han Gongduan still wants to argue, Wang
Pingzhang sighed softly and said: "Gong Duan, no need to say it. No matter what Pei Yue thinks in his heart, the entire Xingliang City is in his hands now. Do you and I really want to force him to rebel now?"
He seemed to be several years older. He looked at Pei Yue and said, "What are you going to do?"
Pei Yue took a deep look at him and said slowly: "In addition to the imperial physician, His Majesty also invites the eldest prince, Wei Guogong, Han Shenzheng and Duan Wang to accompany him. In addition, the imperial guards are responsible for the internal security. As for the imperial army, they will stay in Xingliang.
City, I will take the Wuding Guards and the Zangfeng Guards to escort His Majesty back to the capital."
This arrangement seems to be very appropriate. These four people respectively represent the prince, Wu Xun, civil servants and the clan. They restrict and monitor each other. This can at least ensure that there will be no more mistakes on the way back to Beijing.
But they didn't understand why Pei Yue wanted to leave the imperial army behind.
Wang Pingzhang suddenly looked at the other two princes and said solemnly: "What else?"
Pei Yue said: "Please ask His Highness the Second Highness and His Highness the Sixth Highness to return to the capital overnight, ask for the city gates to be opened, and then split up. The Second Highness will go down and inform the two officials on the left and the Guangping Hougu military aircraft, and ask them to immediately impose a martial law on Kyoto, especially the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army."
The military talisman must be withdrawn. The Sixth Prince went to the palace to report to the Queen, and asked the Queen to sit in the Sixth Palace and strictly investigate any changes in the palace. “
The second and sixth sons were shocked when they heard this. However, looking at the young woman who was holding the spear effortlessly and the fierce generals under Pei Yue, they didn't know that even though they were nobles of the Tian family, they were no match for them at the moment.
Pei Yue who holds military power?
Wang Pingzhang turned to the two of them and said, "Your Highnesses, please take the trouble."
Seeing that the dignified Zuo Junji had already lowered their heads, the second and sixth lao didn't dare to push back, so they had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Pei Yue signaled Ye Qi to let go of the two generals and said to the Forbidden Army general: "Take two hundred elites and escort the two highnesses back to the capital and set off immediately."
"Yes." After consulting Wang Pingzhang with his eyes, this person responded with a hint of unwillingness and anger.
Pei Yue then asked the commander of the imperial guards to arrange the emperor's chariot.
Han Gongduan looked at Pei Yue's calm and calm expression, and suddenly sighed, his eyes filled with deep worry and a bit of regret.
Pei Yue had no time to care about this gentleman's thoughts. He walked up to Ye Qi, who quietly blinked at him twice.
Pei Yue couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
