Zhang Guoyong and Yuan Guohong did their job very thoroughly. Mu Tianbo immediately collapsed on the chair and trembled all over. I don't know if it was because of anger or fear, it should be both.
It turns out that the emperor's secret decree is not groundless. It turns out that Sha Dingzhou has long planned to replace him with a human face and a beast's heart. It turns out that he has already planned to cooperate with the inside and outside to start tonight. If the big eunuch hadn't broken the situation, his family would have been destroyed in Prince Mu's palace, and the foundation that had been built for hundreds of years would have been lost in the blink of an eye.
Destroyed once!
Thinking about this, his whole body went cold, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became!
It's late at night. There are six gates in Kunming City (Kunming is called Turtle City). There are two gates in the east and west. The gate in the north is Guwei and the south gate is **. Later, during the National Protection Movement in the late Qing Dynasty, another National Protection Gate was opened in the southeast.
) all changed their defenses again. Mu Tianbo sent his confidants to go on duty, and together with the governor and the third division, ordered the whole city to be under curfew and martial law. He sent soldiers and horses to patrol the city door to door to capture Sha Dingzhou's men who had sneaked into the city. He also mobilized a large force to general Mu
The palace is under protection, and anyone who approaches without reason will be killed without mercy!
At this time, at the foot of Laoma Mountain a few miles northeast of the city, Wan was leading his troops to hide here. He climbed to the top of the mountain and watched the city closely. However, he waited left and right for no signal. The people who were sent to conduct reconnaissance near the north city gate came back and said
, there were officers and soldiers patrolling the city, nothing unusual could be seen, but they didn’t open the door!
Could there be trouble? Sha Dingzhou's four powerful generals and the Wan family gathered together to make various speculations. At the same time, in the palace of Prince Mu in the city, Mu Tianbo's hand still couldn't restrain his trembling while holding the tea cup. How could Wu Zhaoyuan
His face was ashen, Zhang Lianying said that his mouth was dry and he had nothing to say, or he really didn't know much and was just following orders!
He was like a god. Mu Tianbo and others were shocked when they heard that he was acting on the eunuch's order. In fact, various rumors about Chang Yu had been heard in Yunnan during this period, but there were many things.
The legend is so magical that it makes people feel that it is not so real. How can there be such a powerful person in this world? He just comes out at a young age and is sure to win every battle. The court has racked his brains to destroy him, and he is still dragged into the quagmire.
Li Zicheng and Qing Gou, who came for a walk when they had nothing to do, were actually beaten by him and killed whoever was caught!
Who believes it!
Eunuchs like to enjoy great achievements, and it is nothing new to be greedy for credit.
But in front of him, he was able to plan a strategy thousands of miles away, foil a huge conspiracy, and save his Mu family.
How did he do that?
Chang Yu is not a fairy, nor does he have magical means, he is just careful and bold!
The harm caused by Wubikui's rebellion was really too great, and because it was more than half a year earlier than in history, there were too many uncertainties. Chang Yu was uneasy. If he couldn't stop it, the Mu Palace that had been there for hundreds of years would be gone.
, Regardless of the quality of Prince Mu's Mansion, if Yunnan loses Prince Mu's Mansion, it will inevitably fall into war, the people will suffer, Zhang Xianzhong will gain, and it will be even harder to deal with him later.
So he wanted to prevent this matter from developing on its original track at all costs, and even took the trouble to cross thousands of mountains and rivers to go to Yunnan to take charge. However, it was so far away that the day lilies were cold by the time he left, so before he left, he ordered
Jinyiwei rushed for 800 miles and sent several secret orders as quickly as possible at all costs.
One gift to Qin Liangyu, because at this time the Sichuan governor Chen Shiqi had died, and most other places had been captured or recruited by Zhang Xianzhong. There were really few people and soldiers left in Sichuan, so he made a bluff to send troops to attack Sichuan to attract Zhang Xianzhong's attention and leave him no time to steal.
Chicken Yunnan, of course, this secret edict made it clear to Qin Liangyu that it was because the chieftain of Yunnan was rebelling at this time, and the court was worried that Zhang Xianzhong would steal the chicken, so she asked her to restrain him first to buy some time for the court.
Send one to Mu Tianbo, asking him to consider peace as the most important thing and first stabilize Wu Bikui.
A letter was sent to the governor Wu Zhaoyuan, asking him to supervise Mu Tianbo.
This is double insurance, but facts show that double insurance is not safe either.
but!
Few people know that Chang Yu used three insurances this time!
It’s for the Jin Yiwei in Kunming City!
There were imperial guards everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, especially in Fucheng, where there were the most vassal kings.
Historically, in the late Ming Dynasty, these imperial guards were mostly perfunctory. After all, the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked. Historically, Wu Mengming only knew how to make money and did not even have time to harm people, let alone do serious things.
But since Chang Yu came to power, the atmosphere has changed!
Not only has the atmosphere of Dongchang changed, Jin Yiwei has also changed with it. After all, Dongchang has the right to use the power of Jin Yiwei to do things. For example, Chang Yu often calls it when he patrols the border. Nowadays, no one in the government or the public knows how powerful the eunuch of Dongchang is.
Of course Jin Yiwei also knows!
So when Zhang Lianying received Chang Yu's order, he stood up from his chair!
Although this is not an imperial decree, to him it is more sacred than an imperial decree!
Chang Yu's order to him was probably that Sha Dingzhou was suspected of conspiring to rebel, and asked him to collect evidence, especially to keep an eye on Yuan Guohong and Zhang Guoyong, who were under the command of Prince Mu! If Sha Dingzhou discovered that there was a connection between them after entering Kunming,
Immediately seal off the city with people! He also told him that if he was short of manpower, he could ask the Ruan brothers for help. When he needed to mobilize troops and horses, if there was any inconvenience, he could directly contact Wu Zhaoyuan and the Third Division. With the military order in hand, they did not dare not to give it, and
In fact, Jin Yiwei's brand name is gold. This time Zhang Lianying secretly mobilized troops and it was enough to use Jin Yiwei's brand name.
Zhang Lianying was confused when he first received this order. Yuan and Zhang were the generals under Mu Tianbo. Why were they keeping an eye on him? Will Sha Dingzhou come to Kunming? It was obvious that he did not want to participate in the war. He
Why do you need to contact Yuan and Zhang when you are here?
The endless questions drove him crazy, but Zhang Lianying also knew clearly that this might be an opportunity to make a great contribution!
Could it be a trivial matter if the chief eunuch personally ordered him to do it secretly?
So Zhang Lianying took the idea seriously and summoned his confidants in Kunming City for a secret discussion. Then he sent people to sneak into Mengzi to keep an eye on Sha Dingzhou's every move, and then personally followed Yuan and Zhang, including Mu Tianbo.
During the days when they led Yuan and Zhang to fight in person, they also secretly accompanied the army. This move did not arouse anyone's suspicion, because the Jinyiwei's job was to inquire about information. They wanted to report the latest battle situation. It was most normal to follow the army.
but.
However, they followed for more than ten days and found nothing unusual about Yuan and Zhang. It was not until Mu Tianbo suddenly led his troops back to Kunming that Yuan and Zhang followed him, but Zhang Lianying finally discovered the clue. Yuan and Zhang were generals in the city.
There was a house where one day a follower discovered that Yuan Guohong went to Zhang Guoyong's house, but there were guests at Zhang Guoyong's house that day.
He was not an ordinary guest. At first glance, he was not a local or a Han family. Zhang Lianying immediately thought of the Sha Dingzhou mentioned by Chang Yu. Could it be the person he sent? He ordered his men to follow those people to watch him leave the city.
It doesn't hurt to go later.
result!
Sure enough, I went to Mengzi!
They were really colluding and secretly discussing something. Zhang Lianying immediately became excited. He thought it was a blessing from the sky, so he put all his strength and energy into this matter. His professional sixth sense let him know that Sha Dingzhou
He and Yuan Zhang must be plotting something big, and the eunuch knew a little bit about it, so he asked himself to pursue it.
The Jin Yiwei's job is to spy on reconnaissance intelligence, which is what they are best at, so Yuan and Zhang have always been kept in the dark, not knowing that their every move is being watched by the Jin Yiwei.
Unexpectedly, after following for several days, Yuan and Zhang were as normal as usual, which put Zhang Lianying into a dilemma. However, the news of Sha Dingzhou leading his troops to Kunming soon reached his ears, and he immediately let Zhang Lianying be in trouble.
He shivered.
It's coming, it's coming, something big is happening!
Sure enough, after following them, they found that Sha Dingzhou sent someone to secretly meet Yuan and Zhang on the way there.
At this time, Zhang Lianying was a fool and knew that they were going to do something together, and it was definitely not a good thing, so he saw the Ruan brothers and called him to tell him about it. The Ruan brothers were shocked and immediately wanted to report it to Mu Tianbo.
He stopped him, but the matter was still unclear, fearing that he might alert the enemy. At the same time, he contacted the generals he had good friends with in the army and secretly made preparations to prevent any eventuality.
Sha Dingzhou has entered the city.
Sha Dingzhou and his people met secretly.
The people from Sha Dingzhou went to see Yuan and Zhang again.
Sha Dingzhou's soldiers and horses are outside the city.
Sha Dingzhou has contacted his people again, and Sha Dingzhou's troops will go to the front line today.
Hey, Mr. Tang actually put on makeup and secretly went to meet Yuan and Zhang!
Sha Dingzhou thought that he didn't know the rules, and even the little moves that Prince Mu didn't notice, all fell into the eyes of professional players, and he knew every move like the palm of his hand.
At this time, Zhang Lianying and the Ruan brothers realized that they might be about to take action, and deduced that the departure of their troops might be just a cover. Of course, all of this was just speculation, and more clues or evidence were needed to confirm it.
Is it time to capture someone? If the timing is wrong, all the previous efforts may be wasted if the opportunity is not right. Just when Zhang Lianying was wondering whether to capture someone, his subordinates reported secretly, and Yuan and Zhang replaced all the guards at the north gate with their own people!
Tang Jingbin met Yuan and Zhang in person. Wan left with his soldiers and horses in the evening. Yuan and Zhang replaced the guards at the north gate with their own people!
Fuck, they're going to do it tonight!
Zhang Lianying no longer hesitated, and immediately led his team to arrest Yuan and Zhang. After a violent beating, they tried everything. Jin Yiwei's methods of extracting confessions were never inferior to those of Dongchang, and they were the real veterans.
After getting the confession, Zhang Lianying was surprised and happy. As a royal guard, he mobilized his troops and horses to guard the city gates again, and then rushed to Prince Mu's Mansion. That was the scene just now.
Sha Thief is hateful, ten thousand times more hateful than Nawu Bikui. He actually plans to destroy a certain prince's palace in Yunnan. I want to destroy all nine of his tribes. Mu Tianbo finally shouted out. He was really angry and frightened. This time if
If the eunuch hadn't arranged it properly, if Zhang Lianying hadn't fulfilled his duties, the Mu family would have been doomed. Thinking of this, he was covered in cold sweat, and his heart was full of hatred for Sha Dingzhou. He wished he could immediately scrape his skin and cramp his tendons. It was all in vain.
I trust his father and him so much!
As for those two subordinates, we must not let them live. Even if they die, we can't let them die easily. They have to be cut off one by one.
