After Ren Tianxiao returned and surrendered, Cao Wei immediately rode a good horse into the palace.
At this time, Jia Yun was offering sacrifices to Emperor Kangxing and Emperor Tianzhi in the Baohe Hall. When Cao Wei arrived, he reported back with joy: "Your Majesty, Lord Ren, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, has surrendered!"
Jia Yun asked in surprise: "Why so fast?"
Cao Wei quickly explained the matter, saying that when he and Lian Liang left the palace, they found Ren Tianxiao confronting Chu Mingkai and tried to persuade him to surrender...
Jia Yun was even more surprised after hearing this, and felt that she was very lucky in this matter.
After Cao Wei finished speaking, he proposed the next plan...
The plan could not keep up with the changes. Due to Ren Tianxiao's early surrender, Jia Yun's previous plan should have changed. After listening to Cao Wei's proposal, Jia Yun nodded decisively and said: "I think so at the moment, so I will act like this, thank you
Mr. Cao."
"Drive, drive, drive..."
After reporting to Jia Yun, Cao Wei rode his fine horse and ran out of the palace.
Immediately, a military attache from the Chang'an camp, a military attache from the Imperial Guard, and a military attache from Ren Tianxiao's banner rushed to the northwest of the inner city with the complete tiger talisman of the fifth patrol battalion of the Nine-men Infantry Army to stop the ongoing rebellion in the northwest of the inner city.
street fighting, reduce casualties and stop unrest.
At the same time, Cao Wei, Chu Mingkai, and Lian Liang led their troops to escort Ren Tianxiao to Zhengyang Gate, the largest gate of the inner city. Ren Tianxiao asked the fifth patrol battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry Guards here to withdraw, and instead
Guard the military camp.
Cao Wei stayed at Zhengyang Gate for the time being, while Chu Mingkai and Lian Liang led their troops to escort Ren Tianxiao through the outer city and came to Yongding Gate in the south wall of the outer city. Ren Tianxiao asked the nine-door infantry guarding here to patrol the fifth battalion.
After opening the city gate, Lian Liang, escorted by a hundred Chang'an camp cavalry, left the capital through Yongding gate and went to find Lu Lian, the military governor of the Jing camp...
In this way, Lian Liang can leave the capital as quickly as possible. The top priority is for Lian Liang to quickly go to Lu Lian, the military governor of the capital camp, to persuade Lu Lian to surrender, and to stop the capital camp from entering the capital. If the capital camp rushes to Shenjing City,
, there may be dangerous variables...
Immediately, with the help of Ren Tianxiao, all the five patrol battalions of the nine-door infantry in the outer city were withdrawn. The seven gates of the outer city and the entire outer city were guarded by the imperial guards, which meant that Jia Yun had taken control of the outer city.
Then, Chu Mingkai led the army and escorted Ren Tianxiao back to Zhengyangmen. He joined forces with Cao Wei and with the help of Ren Tianxiao, all the five patrol battalions of the nine-door infantry in the inner city were withdrawn.
The city was guarded by military camps and imperial guards, which meant that Jia Yun had taken control of the inner city.
At this point, the entire Shenjing City has been controlled by Jia Yun!
As for the nine infantry patrol battalions that were withdrawn from the outer city and the inner city, there were more than 20,000 officers and soldiers in total. These more than 20,000 officers and soldiers were all discharged and were guarded in the two large battalions in the outer city.
The camps are separated, and one large camp oversees more than 10,000 people.
…
…
Prince Zhongshun took the Beijing Camp Tiger Talisman and the imperial edict drafted by Xia Hao and quickly rushed to Fengtai in the southwest outside the sacred city, where he met Lu Lian, the military commander of the Beijing Camp.
After Lu Lian saw the tiger talisman and the imperial edict, and listened to Zhongshun's personal explanation of the situation, he did not dare to neglect, hurriedly mobilized his troops, and personally led 10,000 cavalry to the Shenjing City.
Although Prince Zhongshun was inevitably a little worried, he was more gloating!
Prince Zhongshun thought that Jia Yun's army would most likely fail this time, because the defense of Shenjing City was strong, so he quickly mobilized the capital camp. If Jia Yun failed to raise his army, disaster would befall him, and he would not mind adding fuel to the flames.
, Jia Yun must be tortured to death.
Prince Zhongshun desperately wanted to kill Jia Yun, not only because he always hated Jia Yun, but also because he was very jealous of Jia Yun. He was jealous that Jia Yun had become Chang'an Jiedushi, Prince, and General Wang at a young age.
Despite his illustrious military exploits, he was also jealous of Jia Yun’s family property...
Although Prince Zhongshun was the prince of Emperor Kangxing, he was only a county prince when Emperor Kangxing abdicated. Later, he became the second prince personally named by Emperor Tianzhi, and by this time he was already old.
Moreover, although Prince Zhongshun was the confidant of Emperor Tianzhi and became the Zongren's Zongfu, Emperor Tianzhi was very strict with the Zongren Mansion, and Prince Zhongshun knew that Emperor Tianzhi advocated frugality and strict control of corruption, so
, although he was greedy a lot, but not a lot, and he did not dare to live a life of extravagance.
Previously, he sent the royal palace chief Shi to bid for Mei Yuanyuan because he was very lustful and greedy for men.
And Prince Zhongshun knew that Jia Yun was also very capable in making money. The businesses that Jia Yun and Cheng Huanian did together were very profitable, especially the recent soaps, soaps, shampoos, creams...
Prince Zhongshun also heard from Qiu Shian that according to the spy eunuch arranged by Qiu Shian in Prince Jia Yun's residence, there were many beauties in Prince Jia Yun's residence, especially Qin Keqing, who lived in the palace more than half a year ago. He was as beautiful as a fairy.
Unfortunately for Prince Zhongshun, the Empress Dowager ignored his self-recommendation and insisted on letting Xia Hao inherit the throne, and he had neither the courage nor the strength to seize the throne.
However, when Prince Zhongshun thought about it, even if he himself could not become the new emperor, it would be good for Xia Hao to become the new emperor. He knew Xia Hao's stupidity, and he had a good relationship with Xia Hao, and he was Xia Hao's
Elders, and can also indirectly control Xia Hao through the Queen Mother.
"I can't even become the new emperor. How can Xia Shi, a brat who has only been the prince for more than a year, become the new emperor? Haha, you are seeking your own death this time. When you die, your
I will try my best to get those family properties, and even the beauties in your palace!"
Prince Zhongshun was thinking in his mind as he and Lu Lian led 10,000 cavalrymen from the capital camp towards Shenjing City.
In Prince Zhongshun's plan, when this cavalry army of ten thousand people arrives at the outer city of Shenjing, they will directly enter the city through the outer city, join other armies in the city, and guard the city of Shenjing together, and wait until the Beijing camp army behind them arrives.
Then defeat the Chang'an camp and capture Jia Yun. It would be best to kill Jia Yun directly!
What's ridiculous is that Prince Zhongshun didn't know that at this time, the seven gates of the outer city of Shenjing were already guarded by the Imperial Guards, and the nine gates of the inner city were about to be replaced by military camps and guarded by the Imperial Guards...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even if the ten thousand cavalry from the Beijing camp arrive at Shenjing City, it will probably be too late.
And at this moment, Lian Liang, protected by a hundred Chang'an camp cavalry, blocked the front of 10,000 Beijing camp cavalry!
When he learned that Lian Liang was coming, Lu Lian hurried forward, and Prince Zhongshun followed him.
Lian Liang briefly talked to Lu Lian about the current situation in Shenjing City and what Jia Yun had said to persuade him. After that, he took out the imperial edict drafted by Jia Yun: "Lord Lu, accept the edict!"
Prince Zhongshun panicked: "Master Lu, you must not accept the order. Prince Zhongwu is raising an army to rebel and is treasonous. Do you want to rebel against the imperial court? Can't you follow him in the rebellion?"
Lian Liang frowned: "Your Majesty, as things have come to this, I advise you not to interfere. If you interfere again, I will report your words back to the Emperor afterwards, and you will not end well by then!"
Prince Zhongshun: "..."
Lian Liang looked at Lu Lian again. Lu Lian knelt down after pondering for a while: "Weak minister Lu Lian's decree!"
Prince Zhongshun: "..."
At this point, how could Lu Lian not accept the order?
Lian Liang is his mentor and friend. Moreover, Jia Yun has now occupied the palace and controlled Chang'an Camp, Hujun Camp, Imperial Guards, Jinyi Army, and Guard Office. Even Ren Tianxiao, the nine-door admiral, has surrendered. He is now leading the capital.
If the battalion goes to Shenjing, he will probably not be able to enter the city. Even if he enters the city, it is almost impossible to win in a battle inside the city, and his end will be miserable.
What's more, he still has family members living in Shenjing City. Once he leads the Beijing camp to resist Jia Yun, his family members will definitely suffer, and they may even be used to threaten him...
To put it bluntly, even if he can lead the Beijing camp to attack the palace and capture Jia Yun, the new emperor will either be Xia Hao, or Xia Hao will be killed and he will be another prince. This does not mean much to him. He has no
He has a close relationship with which prince. Moreover, after the war, Shenjing City will be destroyed, the Qing Dynasty’s military strength will be greatly damaged, and the Qing Dynasty will probably fall next...
And according to what Lian Liang told him, if he leads the capital camp to surrender, he will be granted the title of Duke!
You must know that after the founding of the Qing Dynasty, only one Duke was granted the title of Duke, and that was Jing Zhanrong. Originally, Lu Lian had no chance of being granted the title of Duke, but now a great opportunity suddenly came!
Immediately, according to Jia Yun's order, Lu Lian led 10,000 Beijing camp cavalry to withdraw to Fengtai. The entire Beijing camp will be stationed in Fengtai as usual. If Jia Yun needs it, he will send people with the Beijing camp tiger talisman and the imperial edict to adjust the Beijing camp.
Lian Liang returned to Shenjing City under the escort of a hundred Chang'an camp cavalry.
Prince Zhongshun was very embarrassed!
Alas, things are so unpredictable!
Just now, Prince Zhongshun was still thinking that Jia Yun's army would fail this time, thinking that Jia Yun would be in great trouble, thinking about killing Jia Yun, and even had the idea of Jia Yun's property, wealth and beauty.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Lian actually led the Beijing camp to surrender. Considering the current situation in the sacred city of Jing, it means that Jia Yun has now successfully raised troops to seize the throne, and Jia Yun is actually the new emperor...
Prince Zhongshun was so embarrassed that his face turned pale because he was also scared!
Prince Zhongshun shamelessly followed Lian Liang and said with a flattering smile: "Master Lian, I was confused just now. In fact, I also believe that Prince Zhongwu should inherit the throne now. What I said just now, you
Don’t take it to heart, let alone report it to Prince Zhongwu, I am very grateful!”
Lian Liang said calmly: "I don't like to talk too much."
Prince Zhongshun continued to smile flatteringly: "My Lord Xinlian, thank you very much!"
However, Prince Zhongshun was still afraid. He knew that Jia Yun would not have a good impression of him, and he had previously suggested to Emperor Kang Xing that Jia Yun be dismissed from the post of Chang'an Jiedushi... and he also knew that Jia Yun was ruthless. Master, I'm afraid Jia Yun will take revenge on him!
Prince Zhongshun immediately thought: "There is not much enmity between me and that brat. I am the uncle of that brat after all, and there is the Queen Mother above me. What's more, that brat raised an army to seize the throne, and his reputation is not justified. He actually asked me to help him with the clan's mansion, but he doesn't dare to retaliate against me, haha!"
…
…
Prince Zhongshun followed Lian Liang back to Shenjing City. Lian Liang naturally entered the palace immediately to report to Jia Yun, but Prince Zhongshun still wanted to follow him.
At the moment, Jia Yun, who has already offered sacrifices to Emperor Kangxing and Emperor Tianzhi, is staying in Qianqing Palace. She has no urgent matters to deal with and is taking the opportunity to rest.
He has not slept all day and night. From last night to now, his body and mind have been severely exhausted. Even the Beijing camp has surrendered. His army has been raised to seize the throne. There are still many things waiting for him, so it is necessary to take a rest now. .
However, just two quarters of an hour after resting, officers and soldiers from the Chang'an camp came to report: "Your Majesty, Prince Zhongshun, Lord Minister of the Ministry of War, Lord Yuan of the Guard, please see me!"
Jia Yun's eyes suddenly lit up and she felt excited. Lian Liang was back, and even Prince Zhongshun was here, which meant that Jingying should have surrendered!
"Xuan!" Jia Yun said.
Prince Zhongshun, Lian Liang, and Yuan Yu walked into the palace together.
Yuan Yu was originally a sixth-rank battalion commander in Chang'an camp. After outstanding performance in the Qing Dynasty, he was promoted to a fifth-rank garrison by Jia Yun and became one of Jia Yun's confidant military attachés.
Previously, Jia Yun sent Yuan Yu to lead the Chang'an camp cavalry to escort Lian Liang out of the capital to find Lu Lian. In fact, he also asked Yuan Yu to monitor him.
"Wei minister pays homage to the emperor!"
After the three of them entered the palace, Prince Zhongshun took the lead in saluting Jia Yun. Lian Liang glanced at Prince Zhongshun with a smile, and then he and Yuan Yu saluted Jia Yun.
You didn't even let him level up, so why should you let him continue to kneel? Humph!
However, although Prince Zhongshun was dissatisfied, he did not dare to disobey and continued to kneel.
Lian Liang gave a detailed report to Jia Yun about how he persuaded Lu Lian to surrender, but did not report what Prince Zhongshun said. After hearing this, Jia Yun said: "Now that I have Master Lian, I will not forget Master Lian's visit this time." great merit."
After Lian Liang withdrew, Prince Zhongshun, who was kneeling on the ground, was busy flattering: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor. From now on, the emperor will be the new emperor. In fact, the ministers have long thought that because of the emperor's ability and merit, he should inherit the throne. From now on I am willing to serve the emperor wholeheartedly and relieve the emperor's worries."
Jia Yun smiled playfully, then her expression turned gloomy, and she ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, tie up Prince Zhongshun and take him into custody!"
Prince Zhongshun: "..."
Several Chang'an camp officers and soldiers came forward, tied up Prince Zhongshun, and took him down.
Jia Yun looked at Yuan Yu: "Do you have anything to say?"
Yuan Yu respectfully said: "For your information, Your Majesty, when Lord Lian was trying to persuade the Jingying Envoy to surrender, Prince Zhongshun stood in the way and said something...a very disrespectful word to the Emperor."
Jia Yun asked: "What are you talking about?"
Yuan Yu said: "I don't dare to say it."
Jia Yun said: "I forgive you for not being guilty."
Yuan Yu then said: "Prince Zhongshun said that the emperor is revolting and is treasonous. Please tell the governor of the Beijing camp not to rebel with the emperor."
After speaking, Yuan Yu took out a valuable jade pendant: "Prince Zhongshun bribed me with this, and said that he would give Wei Chen fifty taels of gold afterwards so that Wei Chen could conceal the matter."
When Prince Zhongshun said this, Yuan Yu was also listening. Therefore, Prince Zhongshun not only asked Lian Liang not to tell Jia Yun, but also bribed Yuan Yu.
Jia Yun nodded and said: "Just keep this piece of jade, and I will reward you later."
Yuan Yu knelt down to thank him and then withdrew.
In the palace, Jia Yun thought to herself: "Prince Zhongshun, haha, I will settle old and new grudges with you!"
He had just heard that Prince Zhongshun proposed that Emperor Kangxing remove him from the post of Chang'an Jiedushi.
