638 The chess piece that paves the way for my lord
The Chu family was taken away in advance.
The person in charge of this matter was Meng Lie.
The imperial army searched everywhere in the city, and Meng Lie placed the Chu family in the secret passage of Dengtai Tower.
Meng Lie originally proposed to deploy as many people as possible during today's sacrificial ceremony in the Imperial Ancestral Temple to ensure the safety of the Imperial Tutor as much as possible——
This proposal was categorically rejected by Mrs. Chu, who asked and reprimanded Meng Lie: "Is this the person she works for to take care of the hidden dangers? How can it be accomplished with such ignorance and disregard for the overall situation? Don't ruin my plan!"
Li Yin never let down his guard. The entire imperial city was under his control. No matter how powerful Meng Lie was, adding one more person would increase the risk of his plan being exposed.
Taifu Chu has been planning so far and does not allow any mistakes to occur. Moreover, Taifu is very aware of the defense of the imperial city and does not think that just a few dozen masters can protect him and escape. The more people there are, the more mistakes will be made.
, once exposed even slightly, all previous efforts will be in vain.
Because of this suggestion, Meng Lie was almost scolded by Master Chu who was suffering from a misanthropy.
At that time, Meng Lie didn't speak anymore.
As a person who has been in charge of Dengtai Tower for more than 20 years, how could he not know that his proposal is quite risky.
He has never been an impulsive person. On the contrary, compared with Chang Kuo Wu Jue and others, he is an extremely rational and indifferent person, and will never waver in his decision-making due to external things.
But he knew one thing very well - Taifu Chu was more than his father to His Highness, and His Highness was afraid that it would be difficult for him to bear the price of losing this teacher.
But this teacher is extremely stubborn. His determination to pave the way for his students is so determined that no one can shake him.
And another "teacher" almost made the same decision.
As the person who arranged the secret plan, Meng Lie had already prepared an escape route for Qiao Yang and his son, and could protect them from the secret passage until the army entered the capital.
But Qiao Yang also refused and chose to stay in the Imperial College.
Compared with the sharp and stubborn Taifu Chu, Qiao Yang has always been an easy-going and smooth person. He has no sharp temperament and no strong personal background.
When he made such a life-and-death decision, he just sighed and told Meng Lie in a normal tone that since he had let the students know the truth and let them see the ugliness, he could not leave them to face the ugliness alone.
Otherwise, what kind of teacher is he?
He never abandoned his students, not when Bian Jun entered the city, nor today.
On this day, Meng Lie suddenly had a deep understanding of the meaning of the word "teacher".
Taifu and Qiao Yang are both very good teachers.
They are good teachers for their students and good teachers for the world.
It is precisely because of the presence of such people that people dare to believe that this world can still be saved, and that the flame of justice in everyone's hearts can never go out.
His Highness often said that if you control your mind, you can accomplish anything.
In today's city, those who are determined to convey the truth are all saviors.
Meng Lie stood on the high pavilion in the backyard and faintly heard the mournful cries of the literati on the second floor.
The painting "Tiger Walking in the Mountains and Forests" painted by Li Suining in the past is still hanging on the second floor of Dengtai Building.
Some desperate and indignant literati burst into tears at the painting, blaming the sky for its lack of eyes, telling the savior to die in a foreign country, and telling the traitor to achieve great success.
As an ordinary person, the more we understand the true identity of the person who has stolen the throne, the more we can appreciate the value and respectability of the princess who went to the north to fight.
Someone said sadly: "——If God is really good at living, why not return Her Highness to my Da Sheng people!"
The city was noisy and shaking, and Meng Lie looked steadily in the direction of the city gate, with a glimmer of hope surging in his eyes.
Recently, the level of martial law in Beijing has reached such an extent that Meng Lie, who is in charge of the secret stakes, has the clearest understanding of this.
Hidden stakes are a common tactic used by all forces, and in just ten days, many forces' informants were removed by Li Yin's men.
Meng Lie was rich in experience. In order to avoid the limelight and avoid exposing his plan, he suspended all information exchanges with outside the city.
It was difficult for him to know in detail what was going on outside the city at this moment.
However, experience told him that Li Yin's extraordinary martial law... was probably due to some major accident.
Thinking of a possibility, Meng Lie, who had always been calm and composed, shed a tear in his eyes. While the people in the city were saving the world, there might also be people outside the city who were trying their best to save these saviors.
Dengtai Tower was soon broken into and searched by the Imperial Army.
The literati either fled in fright, or faced off against the Forbidden Army, and the fists and kicks clashed quickly with blood. When the Forbidden Army drew their swords, the shopkeeper of Dengtailou came forward, begged the Forbidden Army to be accommodating, and offered him a large sum of money.
On normal days, or even half a day ago, those Imperial Guards would not have dared to accept such a bribe, but at this moment... who can say that they have no fear in their hearts when wielding their swords?
Naturally, they all saw the book of hundreds of sins. They suddenly became the minions of the traitors, and they couldn't help but worry about it. If the above is true, when the army comes to Beijing to crusade in the future, the blood on their hands today will be the same.
, will it become evidence of crime?
The fact that the Forbidden Army dared to accept the huge sum of money offered during this chaotic time also meant that people's hearts were becoming broken.
They confiscated the papers in the hands of the literati, but they could not confiscate the truth that was imprinted on the human heart.
After the imperial guards left, the shopkeeper quickly closed the door and temporarily housed the literati here.
Some literati sat down slumped, while others were furious and clamored to leave.
The sounds of fleeing, angry scolding, crying, and the sound of swords and armor clashing while walking, all boiling sounds, accompanied by the still gentle spring breeze, carried the truth farther away.
The door of Dengtai Building was closed, and many shops along the street were also closed. Those mansions of powerful people who still didn't know what happened also closed their doors tightly, holding the trembling card in their hands that they got or flew from nowhere.
"Book of Pursuit of Li Yin's Hundred Sins".
At the southeast corner of the majestic imperial city, Lu Chong led a group of forbidden troops and rushed out in blood. The blood stained the flat and straight palace road outside Jingfeng Gate red, and more forbidden troops chased them.
At the same time, heavy troops surrounded the Imperial College.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The leader of the Forbidden Army stepped into the Imperial Academy, drew his sword and said in a loud voice: "If you don't want to cause casualties, please ask Qiao Jijiu to come with me.
!”
It is always inappropriate to kill Qiao Yang in public. Experience tells him that at this time, these scholars should be frightened rather than angered.
There is enough chaos in Beijing today. Almost all the imperial guards left in the city have been dispatched. There are thousands of Imperial College students. A full-scale conflict will be very troublesome. He cannot spare so many manpower at the moment.
And Qiao Yang didn't want to see that scene, so he chose to stay.
Before that, he had issued strict orders to restrain his students, but at this time there were still students trying to stop him from leaving. Qiao Yubai couldn't help but step forward and tightly grasped his father's wrist.
Qiao Yang pressed her son's hand, turned her head slightly, and confessed again: "You must stay here until half a month later... remember?"
Facing his father's eyes that asked him to say goodbye, Qiao Yubai nodded almost stiffly but firmly, and finally slowly let go of his father's hand.
"Sacrifice wine!"
Hu Huan tried to hold Qiao Jijiu back, but was grabbed by Qiao Yubai instead.
Soon, the Forbidden Army stopped in front of a group of students. Some students cried out "teacher" and "offer wine". With tears and anger in their eyes, they watched the figure in the long gown walking towards the Forbidden Army.
Qiao Yubai stared at his father's figure, his eyes gradually filled with tears.
Amid the tears, my father's back remained calm and normal, as if he just went to the back hill to catch a few fish and would return home with the fish basket at dusk.
Half a month... What is supporting Qiao Yubai at this moment is his father's entrustment.
He forced himself to calm down and kept replaying the plan in his mind to stop his urge to run after his father.
In the plan, this half-month period is the time it takes for the "Book of Pursuit of Li Yin's Hundred Sins" and the "news of the death" of the Taifu to be spread everywhere...
The people who send the news can be supervisors like them, literati in the city, ordinary people, or powerful officials and clans!
Every sound and every drop of blood in the city today is awakening more people. These sounds and blood will make everyone understand that no one will recognize the traitor Li Yin as an emperor!
Hot-blooded people will see in it a sense of justice that cannot be ignored, while cold-blooded people will see a future of benefits that people cannot refuse!
Therefore, no matter how Li Yin suppresses the blockade, the truth is destined to be spread!
When the news comes out, today's capital will be like everywhere in the future, and the hearts and minds of those powerful forces who were recruited by Li Yin in the name of benevolence and virtue will quickly collapse.
The situation was complete. The Huainan Taoist Association, which had already secretly prepared its troops, immediately sent troops to the capital to attack Li Yin in the name of the emperor and the princess!
By then the resistance everywhere has been reduced, and the hearts of the people in the capital have been shattered, and Marquis Zhongyong can kill Li Yin at the minimum cost!
…
In the complete plan of Taifu Chu and Luo Guanlin, after Marquis Zhongyong entered the capital and once the overall situation was settled, the eldest princess Li Rong would be sent to supervise the country to wait for the crown princess to return to the capital.
They paved the smoothest and brightest road for the Crown Princess to return to Beijing, and also intended to reduce the war disaster for the common people.
In this plan, within the capital, it was Taifu Chu who started the game, and outside the capital, Chang Kuo and Li Rong were waiting for the opportunity.
In addition, Li Yin would send soldiers and horses to the Central Guizhou Road to defend the Huainan Road, which was also expected by Taifu and Luo Guanlin. Since they had expected it, they naturally had countermeasures - Changsun and Xiao Min were responsible for executing the countermeasures.
This game is like a large formation to slay demons. Everyone in the game keeps their position. The Taifu has completed his duty to start the formation.
The timing of revealing the truth and the person who reveals the truth are both crucial - Luo Guanlin, who has been in officialdom for many years, knows very well that once Li Yin ascends the throne and becomes emperor with the recognition of the world, no matter how sharply worded the accusation is in the future,
Palely, Mingjun Li Yin has plenty of room for argument, and can define all accusations as dirty slander by the other party.
It will be a long political confrontation, and it will be unfair to his lord and the people of this world.
Today's Gyeonggi is bloody, but only what everyone has experienced personally is the most powerful truth.
Every cry of sorrow and every step of running in the city at this moment will prevent greater turmoil and massacre in the future.
The great formation has been launched, the general trend has been achieved, there is no possibility of the truth being concealed, and the evildoers will never lose their support.
Only in this way can all the turmoil be controlled within the capital city without causing chaos in the world.
Today, those in the game are willing to die for this game, not only out of compassion for the common people, but also out of loyalty and praise to those who go north. From the time she decided to go north, she has been worthy of everyone's support.
She offers this game.
At this point, Luo Guanlin, who had been secretly cooperating with the Taifu, had completed all the Taifu's arrangements.
He thought that it was up to him to make the next decision - just as Luoyang no longer needed Qian Shen back then, Luo Guanlin was no longer needed in this situation.
But outside of the plan, Luo Guanlin thought that he might still be useful.
Standing in the Hanyuan Hall, Luo Guanlin thought a lot.
Qian is an innocent person, he has done nothing wrong in his life, and he is worthy of serving the queen.
But Luo Guanlin was a filthy man with numerous arrogances and numerous faults. Such a person should use all his resources to atone for his sins.
There were officials in the Hanyuan Palace who hit the pillars to express their ambitions. Due to frequent changes, the auspicious moment for granting the emperor's seal had been missed.
The situation in the palace was a bit absurd. During the enthronement ceremony, there were many imperial guards standing around. One group of imperial guards held swords and blocked the door of the palace. Some officials were even escorted to kneel in the palace.
Finally, Luo Guanlin came forward and awarded the seal to Li Yin.
There were curses in the palace, but Luo Guanlin, who was conferring a seal on the traitor, seemed not to hear it.
He held a white jade tray in his hand and bowed to present the seal.
When Li Yin raised his hand, a sharp short knife suddenly appeared in Luo Guanlin's sleeve. The moment the jade plate was released, he held the knife in both hands and stabbed Li Yin in front of him with all his strength.
Although there have been many accidents in the palace, this accident still occurred very suddenly.
Officials must undergo strict inspection before entering and exiting the palace. It is said that they would not have the opportunity to carry such a sharp knife.
However, Luo Guanlin had not left the palace for more than ten days in order to prepare for the enthronement ceremony. This knife was a fruit knife in the palace.
The fruit knife's lethality is limited, but even if Luo Guanlin thrust out with all his strength, there was still the possibility of killing Li Yin. For Luo Guanlin, his mission had been completed, and he only had one chance of dying. But if he could use this
If Li Yin is killed by death, the subsequent turmoil and killings can be reduced again. It is not a bad idea to have a broad mind!
But he failed.
After the short knife was stabbed, Li Yin's figure did not change.
The tip of the knife cut through the robes and pierced the layers of ceremonial clothes, but was quickly blocked.
The obstruction comes from the finely woven personal armor.
The jade plate and seal fell, and Li Yin quickly grabbed Luo Guanlin's wrist, then turned it hard, pushed back suddenly, and stabbed the short knife into Luo Guanlin's chest!
Luo Guanlin staggered back, and two forbidden soldiers rushed forward, one on the left and one on the right, and immediately detained him.
There was a commotion in the palace, and the servant fell to the ground in silence. Li Yin looked at Luo Guanlin and asked, "Even sir, you want to betray me and betray the master and seek death?"
Scarlet blood spilled from Luo Guanlin's mouth. He looked at Li Yin, his eyes had completely changed, and he said word by word: "Luo has never rebelled against his master."
"My lord is the Crown Princess Li Suining!" He said almost cheerfully: "You, a country thief, are just a pawn to pave the way for my lord!"
