The Wulu Du Branch Envoy's headquarters was temporarily set up in Shouchun. In early March, Wei Chujun was invited to Huangchuan to discuss matters such as money and food for the crossing of the Huaihe River. However, when others rushed to Huangchuan, they did not see Xu Huai, saying that he was temporarily out on patrol.
, Han Gui had something to do with Liu Shiwang, Cheng Lunying and others as well as the envoys. The envoys took turns to pester him to discuss the affairs of the branch, detailing the payment, transfer, warehousing and other details of various physical rents and taxes in various prefectures and counties.
.
After three or four days, Wei Chujun realized that something was wrong, but Han Gui said that Xu Huai would return to Huangchuan at any time and did not dare to let Wei Chujun leave without permission.
Han Gui refused to let Wei Chujun go, and Wei Chujun only had dozens of guards and several equally weak officials accompanying him. How could he break into Huangchuan City, which was garrisoned inside and outside by the Jingsheng Army's tough soldiers?
For more than ten days, he was like a mouse trapped in a cage. That night, he finally learned that Xu Huai's patrol had returned to Huangchuan. Wei Chujun ignored the obstruction of his guards and forced his way into the camp, demanding to leave the city at the risk of death. After being released by Xu Huai, Wei Chujun also
Regardless of the darkness, he left Huangchuan City with his followers overnight.
He did not go to Shouchun, but rode south under the stars at night, and finally met at Huagang Posthouse outside Lu'an City, where he met Wang Boqian, who had been sent by Wang Boqian after hearing the news.
Envoy met.
At this moment, he learned that Wang Boqian had met with Jinzhuang at dawn the day before yesterday. In Gaochunnian, Luo Wang and others gathered around Emperor Shaolong to leave the capital and move to Qirunzhou. They sent people to contact him and asked him to find a way to escape from Shouchun.
, go to Runzhou to meet.
The moment Wei Chujun heard the news, he felt as if he had been struck by thunder. He sat blankly on the threshold of the post house, feeling his heart aching. After a while, he cried out: "Wang Boqian is greedy for life and afraid of death, and Luo Wang is vulgar and ignorant, and has killed your majesty!"
The guards on the left and right came to see him for some unknown reason, and saw Wei Chujun struggling to stand up, opening his mouth and spitting out a mouthful of blood, and he fell to the ground. Everyone hurriedly helped him up, but they saw that Wei Chujun's face was pale, his lips were purple, and his eyes were tight.
Close, the person has fainted.
When Wei Chujun woke up leisurely, it was already bright and light rain was falling in the yard. He almost suspected that the news he heard at dawn was just a nightmare.
Maybe it's a nightmare?
How could Wang Boqian, Luo Wang and the others be so uncertain?
Xu Huaiwei led an army of 200,000 to cross the Huaihe River, and had not yet engaged the main forces of the Chihu Prefecture. How could they be so stupid as to follow His Majesty and leave Beijing for Runzhou at this time?
Besides, it is impossible for Luo Nanguang and Ge Yu to agree with their rash actions at this time!
It must be that I have been too worried these past few days. I had this nightmare and couldn't scare myself.
Wei Chujun was about to sit up from the bed when he heard the sound of footsteps, and then heard Han Gui talking in front of the corridor: "Has Mr. Wei woke up?"
Wei Chujun felt confused again, and thought to himself, could it be that leaving Huangchuan City last night was also a dream?
With a "squeak", the door was pushed open from the outside, and bright light leaked in. The weak Wei Chujun felt a little dazzling as he watched Han Gui step in.
Han Gui was accompanied by Su Miao, a young general from Beijing and Xiangyang, and two elite soldiers guarding the threshold vigilantly. His eldest son Wei Minglun and Liu Yuetao, an accompanying minister from the Fifth Route Envoy, stood outside the threshold with faces on their faces.
Rong was horrified - seeing this scene, Wei Chujun let out a scream in his heart, all of this was not a dream.
"Wei Gong is not walking slowly. As soon as Wei Gong left, the imperial court issued a letter
When the news reached Huangchuan, Han Gui was ordered by the envoy to go out of the city to find Wei Gong to discuss the plan. Unexpectedly, he hurriedly hurriedly and slowly caught up with Wei Gong until he was at the Hua sentry box two hundred miles away."
Han Gui smiled and pulled up a stool and sat down in front of Wei Chujun's couch. When Wei Chujun was about to get up, he quickly held him down and said,
"Wei Gong is not feeling well. You should rest more and don't get up. If you have anything to say, just lie down and tell Han Gui. If Wei Gong has any shortcomings, it will be hard for Han Gui to explain it to the envoy!"
Wei Chujun suppressed the shocking waves in his heart, sat on the bedside, stared at Han Gui and asked, "What did you do to His Majesty?"
"This is exactly what we want to ask Wei Gong. How can Wei Gong bite back and question us?" Han Gui's face became solemn and he said, "Han Gui followed the envoy's order and came to ask Wei Gong a few words.
, please also ask Wei Gong to answer truthfully."
Wei Chujun looked pale and shut his mouth, not even wanting to look at Han Gui.
Han Gui continued to ask: "The DPRK sent an urgent message last night, saying that Wang Boqian, Gao Chunnian, Luo Wang, Jin Zhuangcheng, colluded with Ge Yu and Luo Nanguang, and had kidnapped His Majesty out of the capital and fled to Runzhou. Wei Gong, can you????
????????????Have you participated in Wang, Gao, Ge, Luo and others' conspiracy against the Party?"
"If I knew this, how could I be deceived and trapped in Huangchuan by you using such a little trick?" Wei Chujun said.
"Han Gui believes in Wei Gong for the time being, but Wei Gong needs to follow Han Gui to Jianye to accept inquiries from various ministers." Han Gui said.
"I can be your prisoner, but Liu Yuetao and the others have nothing to do with this matter, let alone the many guards..." Wei Chujun said.
"Before there is no proof that they participated in the rebellion, they were still generals of Dai Viet. I believe that the prime ministers will give them fair treatment. They are just temporarily suffering some injustice," Han Gui said. "If Duke Wei is in good health, we will
It's better to leave early, we still have more than 400 miles to reach Jianye."
After saying that, Han Gui and Su Miao walked out of the house first, letting Wei Minglun and Liu Yuetao come in to serve Wei Chujun and get dressed.
Only then did Wei Chujun realize that he had fainted after hearing the bad news at dawn. It didn't take long before Han Gui, surrounded by hundreds of armored cavalry, chased him. He first directly removed the armor of his accompanying guards and sent him to a nearby military camp for detention.
After getting up, he ordered the accompanying officials of the Wuludu Branch to return to Shouchun and wait for orders.
At this time, only the official Liu Yuetao and his eldest son Wei Minglun stayed with him. It was Han Gui who saw that they were unable to restrain the chicken, so he did not put them in shackles. However, there were soldiers from Beijing and Xiangyang inside and outside the courtyard. They had already
He was imprisoned.
"Fortunately, the people sent by Wang Xiang and others saw that something was wrong and ran away early without being caught. Otherwise, it would be really unclear!" Wei Minglun whispered to his father Wei Chujun.
Wei Chujun smiled bitterly, if he really wanted to put them in jail, how could Beijing and Xiang lack one or two witnesses?
"Han Gui ordered the guards to be released from custody, and a court order was produced. His Majesty should have entered Runzhou City at this time, and the Young Marshal has also sent forward troops to cross the river to meet up. There is Han Marshal, and the Young Marshal's elite troops are guarding him.
, Your Majesty will be fine. Next, as long as Duke Ge raises troops in Jingnan, and at the same time sends an edict to Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Sichuan to send troops to serve the king, we are not afraid that Jingxiang will still confuse right and wrong."
Liu Yuetao was originally a retainer of the Ge family. Over the years, he worked hard and achieved great results to fill the official vacancies. He also knew the secrets and generally understood everything in the political affairs hall.
He sent the edict to Wei Chujun and comforted him by saying,
"We will deal with Han Gui first, and after Jianye is established, we will have a chance to escape!"
The road between Sichuan and Shu was far away, but Zhejiang and Jiangsu were within easy reach. Liu Yuetao believed that as long as these four supervisors and Ge Boyi sent troops to Jingnan, they would soon be able to restore the situation.
Wei Chujun said with a sad smile: "Xu Huai didn't even bother to go out personally. He just asked Han Gui to take hundreds of cavalry to Jianye to deal with the funeral affairs. Where is the chance?"
"If Xu Huai dares not to lead the army and go south, wouldn't the young commander be able to send troops to capture Jianye?" Liu Yuetao asked doubtfully.
"Yes, even if Han Shuai wants to stay in Chuzhou to prevent the captors from moving, Ge Yu still has 15,000 elite soldiers available in Yangzhou. In addition, I heard that in addition to the 3,000 imperial guardsmen, Prime Minister Wang and others will also
Fifteen thousand Jianye Prefecture troops have been brought to Runzhou. Including Luo Nanguang's prefecture troops in Runzhou, there are as many as 40,000. Is it possible that they still cannot defeat Jianye City, which is guarded by more than 10,000 Niushoushan rebels?
"Wei Minglun asked optimistically.
"Is it as simple as you think to unite the troops in battle? Are all the generals and soldiers without any ideas of their own, just at the mercy of you and me?"
?If it is really that simple, Xu Huai is commanding 200,000 troops at this time, why doesn't he directly plot rebellion and engage in so many conspiracies?"
Wei Chujun asked with a bitter smile,
"What was our previous plan? Our previous plan was to wait for Xu Huai to lead his troops to cross the Huaihe River, and when the main forces of the Chihu Mansion were engaged and unable to escape, His Majesty summoned all the civil and military officials to come out of the capital in the name of Spring Festival or Spring Hunting.
After meeting with Ge Yuqi's tribe, they decided to move the capital. All of this needs to be done in a legitimate name so that the generals will not doubt, and if the generals do not doubt, these 40,000 soldiers and horses can be considered soldiers and horses. Now, on what basis does your Majesty
Who left the capital in name? Is there anyone plotting to rebel? Is there anyone who rebels? Now that all the civil and military officials are still staying in Jianye, what can we do to make the generals believe that someone wants to harm His Majesty, so they have to leave the capital in embarrassment? Now except for Ge Yu’s troops
In addition to the three thousand imperial guards, the Jianye Mansion Army and Runzhou soldiers and horses have all become frightened. They are a mob and are completely useless. At this time, Liu Yan is in charge of Luzhou. How many soldiers and horses can Ge Yu divide if he wants to defend Yangzhou?
Join three thousand imperial guards to counterattack Jianye? Another one, your Majesty passed the edict from Runzhou, and together with Zhou He, Wang Fan and others in the name of Zhengshitang, arrived at the two Zhejiang and Liangjiang four-way supervisors at the same time. Do you really think that the four-way
Will the Supervisor definitely act in accordance with His Majesty's imperial edict, instead of following Zhou He, Wang Fan and others to 'defeat rebellion and save His Majesty'?"
"How could the Fourth Supervisor be completely unaware that Your Majesty is afraid of Xu Huai like a tiger, and how could he really believe Zhou He, Wang Fan and others' lies?" Wei Minglun argued.
"You are still too young, and your thinking is too simplistic," Wei Chujun said with a bitter smile. "Perhaps the four supervisors in charge know it in their hearts, or maybe they are all loyal to His Majesty, all of them are upright, and all of them are in conflict with Zhou He and Gu
Fan, Wang Fan and others are not involved at all, but how can they make the generals below believe this? This returns to the question just now, under what name did His Majesty leave the capital? Is there anyone plotting to rebel? Is there anyone who rebels? You are more concerned about this.
Don't forget that the troops and horses currently mobilized by the Fourth Road Supervision Division are mainly stationed in Shouchun, Huo Shi and other places under Xu Huai's control. If it were not for the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Road Supervision Division, they would have already communicated with the capital.
Xiang reached an agreement, does Xu Huaizhen think that sending Han Gui to Jianye with hundreds of light cavalry can calm the overall situation? The situation is over, the situation is over!"
