Hearing Changsun Wuji ask about Yin Hongzhi, all the disciples of Guanlong around him were stunned. Is this person actually planning to target King Qi?
But then I thought about it, among the three legitimate sons of His Majesty Li Er, Li Chengqian, as the prince, was the target of this "military remonstrance". The Guanlong clan was eager to get rid of him, but Wei Wang Li Tai and Jin Wang Li Zhi would rather die than sit down.
As crown prince. If you want to achieve the goal of military remonstrance, depose the East Palace as it should be, and suppress and even drive out the Jiangnan nobles and Shandong families, you can only choose one of His Majesty Li Er's concubines.
, inherit the great position.
Even though the three legitimate sons are still alive, it is actually unfair to put a concubine in the position of a concubine. But how can we care about that now?
The reason for this military remonstrance must be confirmed, otherwise all the Guanlong clan will become traitors...
As for the Crown Prince, the King of Wei, and the King of Jin are still there, whether the King of Qi can securely take the throne can only be said later. Even if those three are infected with illness, rebel, or have some accidents, they are probably related to the Guanlong clan.
unrelated……
…
"Going back to Zhao Guogong, Yin Hongzhi is the chief historian of Prince Qi's palace, and he is always in Prince Qi's palace."
Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "Send someone to step forward and ask Yin Hongzhi to wait outside the gate of Prince Qi's Mansion. I will say a few words to him first, and then I will meet with Prince Qi together."
"Here!"
Immediately, someone mounted a fast horse and headed to Prince Qi's Mansion first, while Changsun Wuji got on a carriage and followed behind.
Horse-drawn carriages were passing through the streets. It was snowing heavily. People on the streets were in panic. Fires broke out in many squares. The rebels robbed and raped in the squares. The people fled in panic. Many people were forced to flee to the streets, only to be encountered again.
Groups of rebels entered the city and headed for the imperial city, but were either dispersed or killed, with their horses neighing and blood flowing like rivers.
Changsun Wuji sat in the carriage, frowning as he watched the tragic scenes. He wanted to stop the soldiers from being indulgent, but after thinking about it, he had no choice but to give up.
These "rebels" are all slaves of Guanlong families, family soldiers, and only a few regular soldiers. These family slaves are not even qualified to become government soldiers, guard the capital, and guard the border. They do not understand military regulations and disciplines. The reason why they dare to rush into Chang'an
The siege of the imperial city was just an order from the family head.
In the eyes of the house slaves, there is only the head of the house and no emperor.
In their eyes, national, French and military disciplines are useless. Only such indulgence can arouse the ferocity in the heart and maintain strong morale. If they are restrained by military regulations and disciplines, they will be tied up and at a loss, and morale will inevitably be low.
How can we do it without high morale when fighting against the Sixth Army of the East Palace in the Imperial City?
Let these people indulge themselves for a while. After the overall situation is settled, we will capture a group of people who slaughtered the people tonight and plundered them at will, push them outside the city gate and show their heads to the public, and give an explanation to the people and merchants in the city.
The common people are like this. No matter what kind of cruelty or humiliation they suffer, as long as they are comforted by an explanation afterwards, they will generally be satisfied and praise the court. They have no idea that in the eyes of the rulers, they are just creating wealth and levying taxes for the empire.
It’s just the number of soldiers…
*****
In the imperial city, a fierce battle is going on.
Countless rebels came from all directions like a tide, gathered outside the imperial city, and launched an attack with desperate shouts. Soldiers pushed tall carts, and soldiers climbed on them, drew their bows and arrows, and fought with the city.
The defenders at the top of the city fired at each other. There were even a number of carts, pushed by soldiers, shooting arrows and projectiles at the top of the city, constantly ramming into Hanguang, Zhuque, Anyi, Shunyi and other city gates. There was even a rebel army trying to erect
The cloud ladder attacked Anfumen, intending to capture this gate and then go straight to Chengtianmen along Tianjie.
It's just that although there are many rebels, they are not formally trained troops. They lack coordination with each other, and the soldiers are mixed. Some people fight bravely and are not afraid of death.
The six rates of the East Palace above did not pose a real threat, and the imperial city remained impregnable.
In the heavy snow, the Taiji Hall stood tall and towering, looking down at the war in Hecheng like a god, but it remained motionless and indifferent.
All the lights and candles in the hall are lit, civilian officials and military officers come in and out, orders are issued, and information is gathered in this center.
Li Chengqian sat on the throne and listened to Cui Dunli's report.
"The Zuotun guards are all wearing armor and equipped with weapons, and the ministers suspect that they are secretly preparing ladders, or that there is a possibility of raiding the Xuanwu Gate. Although there is no evidence, they dare not neglect it. Therefore, they told the Duke of Guo to be careful.
He also ordered Gao Kan to lead the Youtun Guards to assist and support the Xuanwu Gate at any time to ensure nothing goes wrong."
Cui Dunli's words clearly reached the ears of everyone in the palace. Xiao Yu's face was gloomy, Li Daozhong was unmoved, Ma Zhou frowned slightly, and Yu Zhining angrily shouted: "A wolf's ambition! He, Chai Zhewei, is deeply favored by the emperor.
However, I am trusted by His Majesty and entrusted with the important task of guarding the Xuanwu Gate, but at this moment, I am entangled with the rebels and intend to rebel. It is really abominable!"
Although the "Gaoling Yu Clan" belongs to the Guanlong lineage, its own history is long and complicated. Its ancestors were originally Han Chinese "Yu Clan", but during the Han Dynasty, they left the Central Plains with the Tuoba family and went to Xianbei.
In order to adapt to the life of Xianbei, he changed his surname to "Wanfenyu" and became one of the "Eight Nobles" of the Xianbei people. After the reform of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, all Xianbei surnames were changed to Han surnames. For example, "Tuoba", who was a member of the royal family,
The "Dugu family" was changed to "Yuan family", the "Dugu family" was changed to "Liu family", the "Yuchi family" was changed to "Wei family" or "Chi family", and the "Wanfei Yu family" simply restored their ancestral surname and changed it to
The "Yu family" settled in Yongzhou and flourished for generations.
Because of the complicated historical reasons of "Gaoling Yu", the Han people do not know the details and regard it as a Xianbei surname, while the Xianbei people distinguish their Han ancestry, and there is always a gap, which makes "Gaoling Yu" often suffer from both sides, and they are not human beings inside and outside.
…
But in the final analysis, "Gaoling Yu" has Han blood flowing in his body, and has returned to Han for more than two hundred years. He has long regarded himself as a Han. Although he is still one of the "Eight Nobles of Xianbei", he treats Han people very generously.
We are gradually moving further and further away from the "Hu nature will not change".
After scolding angrily, Yu Zhining said: "Your Highness, the Zuotun Guards have shown signs of rebellion. We cannot allow them to act recklessly and threaten the Xuanwu Gate. We should order Chai Zhewei to enter the palace immediately and place him under house arrest. He will be dealt with after the war."
!”
Li Chengqian clicked his tongue and said helplessly: "Master, please be patient and don't be impatient. This matter must not be like this."
How could this be so easy? If Chai Zhewei was really rebellious, he would be frightened and would immediately raise troops at the slightest sign of trouble. How could he be willing to obediently enter the palace after seeing the edict and walk into danger?
If Yu Zhining's words were followed, not only would Chai Zhewei not be able to be tricked into the palace and detained, but he would be forced to start an uprising immediately, and the Xuanwu Gate would immediately be in danger...
I can't help but feel a little sad. Whether it's Yu Zhining or Zhang Xuansu, these teachers of his are all great scholars in the world, moral models, and their integrity is famous in the world. However, above the court, the emphasis is on intrigues and intrigues. The more upright the more upright they are.
The more you are being plotted against, the more you will suffer.
I have been taught by these great Confucian scholars since I was a child. In the past, my behavior seemed to be honest and upright, but in fact I was ignorant of the world and was reckless and hasty. My father saw it and I don't know how disappointed I was. It even alienated the courtiers and deepened the estrangement.
I have been listening to the words of these teachers, and it is simply a miracle that I can still hold the position of Crown Prince until today...
Li Daozong also said: "Even if Zuo Tunwei has evil intentions, at least he has not yet rebelled, and cannot forcibly detain his commander. Otherwise, Zuo Tunwei will beat him up, but the court will ignore it, and he will even be accused of persecution. Now Hecheng
Up and down, inside and outside Guanzhong, everyone's eyes are fixed on this rebellion in Chang'an City, and most of them are watching. His Highness has the power to supervise the country, which represents His Majesty. He must act with dignity and dignity, and must not play tricks or make excuses.
."
As long as Chai Zhewei has not rebelled, the court cannot use "trap" methods to treat him. Otherwise, what will the various forces who are still waiting and watching think? The court must be upright and upright. If it relies on conspiracy and tricks, it is no different from the rebels.
?
At present, the six leaders of the East Palace are besieged in the imperial city, and the whole city is occupied by rebels. The only thing the prince can rely on is the way of "Zhengshuo", and he must not lose this justice in order to solve the problem quickly.
Yu Zhining looked a little ugly and felt embarrassed, but he also knew that strategy was not his strong point, so he said no more.
Xiao Yu, who had been silent on the side, sighed: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has indeed occupied Zhengshuo Dayi, but once the King of Jin stands up with the support of the rebels, his momentum will surely rise sharply, and those forces who are still waiting and watching will
, I’m afraid they are flocking to each other like a swan. One thing is going down, the other is going up, and the situation is extremely unfavorable.”
The prince is indeed Zhengshuo, and he occupies a great position. To depose the East Palace is to commit rebellion.
But don’t forget the saying, “The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit”…
