Rushing from the imperial capital to Kuishan to take over the Yongwu soldiers, Zhao Kang, as the supreme commander, began to lead the army to the Qian Kingdom.
At the same time, some people in Qian Country have also begun to make moves.
Taifu's mansion, in the secret room.
Taifu Zhao Jinsheng, Minister of the Ministry of Industry Lin Yu, imperial censor Zeng An, minister of the official affairs department Chang Kai, household official Zhou Muyuan... there are more than twenty officials, big and small, throughout the six yamen.
Since Zhao Kang's death, Zhao Jinsheng has been cheerful and happy every day, but today he has a serious expression.
"Gentlemen, Jingguo's reply has been received. Jingguo's national advisor Zhao Long personally led an army of 50,000 to support our country. It won't be long before they arrive at the imperial capital."
Zeng An narrowed his eyes: "Master, there's no need to gather all of us together for this matter, right?"
"Yes, His Majesty is going crazy right now. He kills anyone he finds out. I'm even afraid that the knife will fall on me tomorrow." Chang Kai sighed.
Zhao Jinsheng said at this moment: "Everyone, the world of our country is about to change."
Everyone was stunned at first, and then their eyes were horrified: "Master! What did you say!"
"Your Majesty has already given me instructions. As soon as Jingguo's army arrives, we can start the rebellion!"
"really!"
"This is true!"
Hearing Zhao Jinsheng's words, all the officials felt short of breath for a moment and their faces turned red.
They can't help but be excited. Once the Qian Kingdom changes, the uprising will be successful!
Then when the time comes, every one of them here will be a minister of the Dragon!
In the future, high officials, great salaries, glory and wealth will be at your fingertips!
Zhao Jinsheng nodded seriously: "Yes, this matter is absolutely true, the prince has already arranged everything."
"A woman has been the emperor for six years. This is simply ridiculous! I am already prepared to enter the palace on the night of the uprising and force her to abdicate! Do you dare to accompany me?"
Lin Yu was the first to nod and said: "I am willing to follow you!"
After speaking, he seemed to be afraid that others would not have the courage, so he deliberately said: "Everyone, whether you can make your family prosperous depends on this time. Such a good opportunity is rare in a century!"
"Yes, it is indeed time for a change in the heaven of Qian Kingdom. Since ancient times, there has been no such thing as a female emperor!"
"Count me in!"
"And I!"
Seeing that everyone responded positively, Zhao Jinsheng nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, everyone will go back and get ready later. This matter is related to the prince's grand plan. It must not be leaked, otherwise we will not be able to live with it."
"Don't worry, Master, I'll know the severity later!"
Prince Ning's Mansion.
The commander of the imperial army, Zhou Long, knelt on one knee. Xiao Feiyu leaned on the soft couch and chuckled: "I like people who understand current affairs best. General Zhou, don't worry. As long as the general is obedient, the general's family will be fine."
"I am willing to listen to the prince's orders."
After leaving Prince Ning's residence, Zhou Long glanced back at the vast Prince Ning's residence and grinned.
As expected by the Imperial Master, he is such a rebellious minister!
In the palace.
The spies outside the imperial capital reported again, explaining everything about the officials gathering at Zhao Jinsheng's residence and Zhou Long's visit to Prince Ning's residence.
Xiao Linglong didn't say anything and just asked the spy to step back.
Walk out of the palace.
Her Majesty the Empress just went to the palace where she lived before she took the throne. The swings in the courtyard were swinging in the wind.
Xiao Linglong walked over and sat on the swing. In her mind was the scene of Zhao Kang pushing her behind him on the swing that night.
The woman's mouth couldn't help but reveal a smile, and soon, one by one.
If you wait a little longer, I will kill them all and then I can meet you.
The swing was swaying, and the alluring Tianyan looked indifferent at the moment. She had no fear of death for a long time, and she had no other emotions at all.
…
The 50,000-strong army was not very fast, and it took less than half the time to arrive in Tongzhou. The person responsible for welcoming them was naturally Tongzhou Prefect Zhang Zheng.
The army entered the outside of Tongzhou City for repairs. They looked at Zhao Kang and Zhang Zheng with hesitant eyes. They waited until no one was around before tentatively speaking: "National Preceptor?"
"It's me, Mr. Zhang." Zhao Kang no longer suppressed his voice.
Zhang Zheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "The general will finally meet with the Imperial Preceptor."
"Please get up quickly, Mr. Zhang, how many trappers have been deployed during this period?" Zhao Kang asked quickly.
Zhang Zheng said: "There are a total of six thousand three hundred and twenty-seven people. Don't worry, Imperial Master. They were very hidden when they came in. They entered Tongzhou City in batches and did not attract the attention of others."
"That's good, you did a good job." Zhao Kang smiled.
Zhang Zheng said excitedly: "Sir, are you coming back this time?"
"Completely clean up the Qian Kingdom!" Zhao Kang said.
Zhang Zheng asked again: "Do I need my subordinates to cooperate?"
"No, the people under your command are all new troops and they won't have much effect. How about the things I asked you to investigate before I left?" Zhao Kang asked.
Xiao Feiyu has a private army in the Qian Kingdom, but this army is well hidden. Not only himself, but even the empress Xiao Linglong has not found any whereabouts after searching for so long.
The chapter is about to end now, and Zhao Kang does not believe that Xiao Feiyu will not use this private army.
Zhang Zheng said hurriedly: "I was just looking for an opportunity to report this to you. The rebels are extremely hidden. In the past few months, I have sent people to various parts of the country but have not been able to find their whereabouts."
"But the general discovered something fishy."
"Oh? What did you find?" Zhao Kang asked quickly.
Zhang Zheng said quickly: "In Jiangzhou and Qingzhou, there are extremely many mountain bandits and grass bandits."
"Bandit?" Zhao Kang was stunned.
Zhang Zhengdao: "Yes, most of these bandits only have a hundred or so people gathered together, and they dominate the mountain. But the number is very large. In the end, someone compiled the numbers, and it was discovered that all the bandits in Qingzhou and Jiangzhou added up. There are more than 300 shares! There are more than 50,000 people!"
"So many! What do the officials from these two states do for a living? Wait a minute!"
Zhao Kang suddenly realized: "You are talking about these bandits, but they are not necessarily real bandits!"
"Yes, Imperial Master!"
Zhang Zheng said in a deep voice: "After knowing that the number of these bandits was so huge, the general became suspicious and sent hundreds of scouts to investigate. It was found that these bandits rarely went down the mountain to rob homes. There were more of them. He always robs passers-by and never kills anyone."
"After robbing money and goods, they let people go. Most bandits don't leave people alive after robbing people. This made me suspicious and asked people to follow these robbed merchants."
"After discovering that these businessmen were robbed, they did not report the crime and chose to settle the matter. National Master, do you think they will do it?"
"It's so dark under the lamp!"
Zhao Kang sneered, and he understood everything: "The private army pretends to be bandits, and the merchants provide them with money and food. If they don't report to the official, they are afraid of attracting the officials of the two states to suppress the bandits!"
