Shenjing City

Let’s not mention that Jia Heng returned to the capital with Emperor Chongping, Xie Zaiyi and others. Si.Rabbit 520 reads the latest chapter of the correct novel.

However, it was said that the King of Chu and the King of Wei escorted the coffin to the capital and watched the young man leave. They breathed a sigh of relief and then began to think about the future situation of the court.

Without him, once King Chen Cheng of Qi was deposed, there seemed to be no suspense about the candidates for the Eastern Palace, and only two rivals, Wei and Chu, were left.

King Chu Chen Qin turned his eyes and glanced at King Wei, with a chill in his eyes and some inexplicable regrets in his heart.

If King Qi had been more ruthless just now, it would have been better to get rid of King Wei first. It would be better to wipe out the Song family as well.

King Wei frowned, and a look of thought appeared on his young, fair face.

After this incident, the King of Qi was completely eliminated, so only the King of Chu was left as a competitor.

Regardless of the power inside and outside the palace, King Chu was far behind him.

It's just that my father seems to have a special regard for the King of Chu, but the previous army reorganization in Jining, Shandong Province just caused the King of Chu to cause trouble.

After waiting for this period of time, you can let the Censor of Kedao impeach you.

On another carriage with white flags hanging on it, Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong were also discussing in low voices, with expressions of sigh and emotion on their beautiful faces.

Under the willow-leaf-like black eyebrows of the noble concubine Duanrong, a look of regret appeared on her face, and she said: "I don't want to cause such a trouble. King Qi is so good, why is he doing this?"

Empress Song said warmly: "He has had an extreme temperament since he was a child. He had done some errands regarding the Sanhe Gang before. His Majesty also wanted to punish him with a small amount of punishment, so he went to Your Majesty with a grudge."

Concubine Duanrong suddenly remembered something and whispered: "Sister, Your Majesty seems to have been on guard for a long time and did not tell us."

Judging from the previous performance of Emperor Chongping and the speed at which the troops in the capital camp were mobilized, it seemed that they were indeed prepared.

Empress Song's red lips were slightly parted, and her round and round voice became clearer and clearer, and she said softly: "Don't worry about the news leaking out. Fortunately, it was all a false alarm."

I feel a little unnatural in my heart. Your Majesty, aren't you worried about these female relatives, and let the rebel soldiers under King Qi rush to kill them?

Then she thought of the little fox running thousands of miles to come to her rescue. For some reason, a thought suddenly came to the beauty's heart.

He traveled day and night, coming at starry night, could he come here to save her?

After returning to Beijing, I still don’t know how to tell the little fox.

In this way, the funeral procession headed towards Gongling Mausoleum, which is located twenty miles southeast of Shenjing City.

…

…

Emperor Chongping, escorted by a group of Jinyi cavalry and Beijing camp soldiers, followed the convoy back to the palace in a mighty manner. Along the way, the people had already been expelled by Jinyi Tiqi and Beijing camp cavalry troops and hid in their homes.

There were discussions about the killing cry in the capital, various speculations, and no consensus.

Daming Palace, Hanyuan Hall, inner study room

At this moment, Jia Heng, accompanied by Xie Zaiyi, escorted Emperor Chongping into the palace and stood on the jade steps in the palace.

Emperor Chongping sat in the inner study, stared at the young man, and asked: "Ziyu has worked hard when he came back this time. How is the situation in Shandong?"

Jia Heng cupped his hands and said: "Back to the Holy Lord, after Yanzhou was pacified, all the prefectures and counties returned to the hands of the imperial court, and Hauge was captured alive for a minor official, Li Yanqing was beheaded, the White Lotus sect bandits were wiped out, and the remaining White Lotus gangsters in Shandong were wiped out.

The arrest cannot be made within a short period of time."

Emperor Chongping's eyes flickered coldly under his thin eyebrows, and he said in a low voice: "Now it seems that Chen Cheng, Chen Rong and his son are really deliberately planning to collude with the White Lotus Sect and others to take advantage of the civil strife in Shandong to assassinate the emperor.

Then force me to abdicate."

At that time, Chen Cheng should have sent another imperial edict to seize Jia Ziyu's military power in order to avenge the past.

Jia Heng said: "The Holy One is filled with great blessings and is blessed by the gods of Haotian. It is not something that these treacherous villains can murder."

Emperor Chongping's eyes fell on the face of the young man in the python suit and said: "This time Chen Cheng and Chen Rong and his son conspired to rebel and secretly murdered the emperor. How do you think Zi Yu should deal with it?"

Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "I think that the Holy One is both the lord of all directions and the head of the clan. This is a family matter of the Holy One and cannot be discussed by the ministers."

There was no need for him to say anything about such matters. The emperor had already made a decision in his mind. He was simply worried about the bad reputation of killing his brother and his own son, or he wanted to find someone to help him make up his mind.

However, if Prince Zhongshun and his son plot to murder the emperor, they will definitely be sentenced to death, and even Prince Zhongshun's lineage will not be left. This kind of evil and treason is shocking.

Emperor Chongping was silent for a long time and said nothing else.

Naturally, Chen Rong and his son both wanted to die. After being deposed as commoners, even if they were sent to Gongling Mausoleum, there would be another turmoil. It can be seen that the violent nature of the father and son is hard to change, and only death can eliminate the trouble.

As for Chen Cheng...

Emperor Chongping frowned, his eyes flickered, and for a moment he felt tired in his heart.

After all, King Chen Cheng of Qi was the first son of Emperor Chongping, and he had very deep feelings. However, if he was not dealt with, he would inevitably cause trouble due to his surly temperament.

Otherwise, after the new king takes the throne, it will be difficult to deal with these people.

Emperor Chongping turned to ask again: "Ziyu, in the northern Xinjiang area, the Jurchens sent troops and horses to knock on the border. How do you think Ziyu should respond?"

Jia Heng said: "The Jurchens suffered a major defeat last year. Now they are fighting again, but they are just to respond to the rebellion in Shandong. Now that the chaos in Shandong has been suppressed, the imperial court does not need to send troops to help. The troops from nine sides, the fortified city and the deep trenches are enough to repel them."

Invading enemies, it is now a critical time for the New Deal to be promoted across the country, and it is not appropriate for me, a big man, to go into full-scale war with the Jurchens, which will affect the promotion of the New Deal."

Emperor Chongping nodded and said warmly: "Then we won't send troops to Northern Xinjiang for the time being."

Jia Heng said: "In a while, I will go to Ji Town to check the border. At the same time, I will organize naval forces in Tianjin and other places to take the initiative to attack the Jurchens across the sea to prevent the Jurchens from continuing to harass me."

Under his thin, loose brows, Emperor Chongping's eyes were a little gentle, and he said in a warm voice: "Zi Yu came from afar to attack. It's been a hard journey. Let's go back to the mansion to rest for a few days."

Jia Heng made a face and calmed down his expression, raised his hands and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, I will take my leave."

On the other side, Xie Zaiyi also said goodbye.

Emperor Chongping's eyes were dazed for a moment, and he sighed deeply, feeling an unprecedented fatigue hit his heart.

It can be said that although this coup was unscathed, it did make Emperor Chongping mentally and physically exhausted, and he began to think about the matter of the East Palace heir.

Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall

In the hall, Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Feng Wan, Chai Dai, Yun Qin and Wen Qi were all there, but their faces mostly looked gloomy and gloomy.

Just when a riot broke out in the city, the Jia family also learned the news, because Jia Chang and Jia Yun each sent a troop of soldiers to protect the Jia family firmly and prevent the Jia family from being attacked by the rebels.

When there was a rebellion in the capital camp, Prince Zhongshun actually sent a troop of troops to attack and kill the Jia family. There were about four to five hundred people, and they went to Ningrong Street and attacked the Ningrong and Ningrong mansions.

At this moment, there was a fight going on outside, and the sound of fighting could be heard faintly through the high wall into the courtyards of Ning and Rong Mansion, making everyone in the Jia family anxious.

In Rongqing Hall, at this moment, a nanny in splendid clothes entered the hall with a flustered expression.

Mother Jia couldn't hide the worry on her old face and asked, "How is it?"

At this time, the nanny said anxiously: "Old lady, the city is now in chaos. Those rebels are shouting to Qingjun and kill Jia's party. Just now, the rebels came over and started fighting. Let Mr. Yun, who is in the corridor, fight back."

Already."

Jia's mother's expression suddenly changed and she asked: "You are so good, which Jia party did the rebels kill? And the Qingjun side?"

This slogan seems somewhat familiar to the incident many years ago.

Mrs. Wang was frightened and blurted out: "Old lady, Brother Heng must have offended someone outside, which made people hate him. Now he comes directly to the house and wants to kill the female family members to vent his anger?"

That uncle Heng was an official outside and only cared about his own reputation. He offended many people and did not want to cause such a big trouble now.

Aunt Xue's fair face was slightly unnatural, and she said softly: "Brother Heng can't be entirely blamed. He was working for the palace outside. If someone conspires to cause rebellion, he will definitely have to deal with Brother Heng."

Mrs. Wang: "..."

Isn’t it certain that she can become the mother-in-law of the Duke?

Mother Jia frowned, glanced at Mrs. Wang, and said, "Send someone to find out what's going on outside?"

The nanny said "Hey", then left the hall and went to inquire about the news again.

Sister Feng raised her eyebrows, and Danfeng couldn't hide the worry in her eyes as she said, "What are you doing following the rebellion of the loyal and obedient Wang family in front of such a good prince?"

Jia Mu sighed and said: "This man's heart is high and he still wants to be high. How can I feel more comfortable being a prince than being an emperor? That's why I made such a fuss."

More than ten years ago, when the young Duke was here, the person in the palace seemed to be shouting the slogan "Qing Junzi" like this?

Sister Feng said softly: "Old lady, you have been through a lot, nothing will happen to you, right?"

Jia Mu said: "The people who are left to protect us are all arranged by Brother Heng. There should be no big deal."

Tan Chun twisted her heroic eyebrows, turned to look at Zhen Lan, who was wearing a green skirt, and said softly: "Sister Lan, what do you think?"

Although sometimes she doesn't like this scheming sister-in-law, Zhen Lan is the only one among the Jia sisters who can talk to her about the current situation in the outside world.

Facing the curious gaze of her younger sister Zhen Xi, Zhen Lan also showed a look of thought on her beautiful face, and said: "I read in the newspaper earlier that King Wei and King Chu both entered the military aircraft office, but King Qi has nothing."

If you don’t, I’m afraid you will feel resentful about it.”

Tan Chun said softly: "At the beginning, King Qi had his title reduced because of the Sanhe Gang incident, so he resented brother Shangheng."

Zhen Lan said: "It is also because Brother Heng controls the capital camp and leads troops in Shandong. He is worried about King Qin returning to Beijing and wants to use his family members to blackmail Brother Heng."

He is now in charge of the capital camp. If there is chaos in Shenjing, he can lead his troops back to the capital to help King Qin, and he can probably participate in the national affairs.

Tan Chunying frowned and said worriedly: "Then there should be nothing wrong this time."

Zhen Lan's face was full of determination, and she said softly: "Brother Heng has been in Beijing camp for several years. This time, many generals have been retained. Even if there is a rebellion in Beijing camp, it will not be easy.

Besides, Brother Heng may not have any backup plans."
