It is said that the two princes held a banquet to entertain all the princes on this day. Because I knew that Jia Cong had returned to Beijing and he was an important figure in the conspiracy that day, I specially invited him as a guest. Naturally, Jia Cong was at the table again.
He talked about the experience of governing the country summarized by later generations, and all the princes were amazed. He took advantage of the situation and said that he would go back to Taiwan to study first, and also wanted to take a boat to go sightseeing in the West. He would not come out to choose the master until he was in his twenties. Princes
Although they know that their ambitions cannot be strong, they are all eager for talents.
Suddenly someone came in and reported that two flower boys were coming from outside, carrying a box to the door. They said that a gentleman with an immortal spirit gave him two hundred and fifty copper coins and hired them to deliver the things. The boy said
"He said, princes, no matter how big or small, everyone has a share." The kings were curious and ordered people to carry it in and take a look.
The box was an ordinary rattan box. You could buy only a few dozen copper plates on the street, but it was very heavy. The second prince ordered people to open the lid and take a look. Everyone gasped: it was full of whole things stacked up and down.
It’s exactly the same—Tiger Talisman!
It turned out that before the Seventh Heisi was out of date, Jia Cong ran to Qin Sangu's house to talk to it one morning and took away the tiger charm that was still in the kennel. After printing the mold, he ran back and took advantage of Qin Sangu's return.
Busy outside, putting the tiger talisman back to its original place. The model casting method has been around since ancient times, and has been improved in various ways since then. There are several masters of imitating antiques in the capital, and they can easily imitate the original and make many copies. No.
After a long time, it became a big box. Gong San also stared at it silently for a quarter of an hour and asked, "What do you want to do?" Jia Cong said casually, "Give it away."
Therefore, I took advantage of the fact that today all the princes had sent them to them. The kings gathered around and picked up these tiger talismans one by one. They were just like the real ones! There was an ordinary piece of white paper under the rattan box.
Above is the pavilion body that they have seen three times: "My princes, one day I have the country in my hands. I hope that I can rehabilitate Prince Yi Zhong for the small help I have given to Wan Sheng. Thank you."
They had long suspected who the person who sent the arrow book was, and only now did they see the clues about this person. They couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out to be his person! No wonder..."
Jia Cong stuck his head out and took a few glances: "There are so many tiger talismans, which one is real?"
The Eighth Prince smiled and said, "Which one do you think is true?"
Jia Cong said: "They are exactly the same. They are probably all true, but they are not true either."
The second prince asked: "How do you say this?"
Jia Cong said: "Since they are exactly the same, I guess the real tiger talisman should look like this. There are so many soldiers and horses in the world, if you only take one to see the generals of a certain party, they will not be able to tell that it is a copy. If you want to mobilize troops and generals,
Whatever you pick can accomplish anything. Anything that can accomplish something is a good thing. So it’s true.”
He paused for a moment, then continued: "Things are rare and valuable. It's important when there is only one of them, but if everyone has just one, it's ordinary. If you don't know if there is something real in it, no one will believe it, and you won't be able to tell it apart.
"
The princes took each tiger talisman and looked at it carefully for a long time, but they really couldn't tell the difference. The sixth prince has been leading the army all year round and is most familiar with this thing. He never saw anything wrong. He praised: "Brother, after all, I have something wrong with it."
His ability has been gone for so many years, but he still has loyal subordinates to redress his injustice."
Jia Cong pursed his lips and said, "If this subordinate had real skills, how could his master die?" As soon as he said this, he suddenly felt hot gazes coming from all around him. He hurriedly laughed and changed the topic, "Everyone under the prince's command.
Can anyone make up stories?"
The Sixth Prince smiled happily and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Jia Cong winked: "If someone can make up a story and make it very round, the princes can make some marks on their respective tiger talismans, and then make up a story to cover it. For example, carving a knife mark on the tail of the tiger talisman,
It was left for some reason during a certain battle in a certain year. Or it was a mark on the belly of the tiger talisman. It was a saint who was angry about something in a certain year and casually threw the tiger talisman out to hit people. It didn't hit anyone.
There is such a thing in the ground. Anyway, since what you say is true, you must have an explanation, even if it is about breaking up, if you can tell the reason, people will believe it."
The kings touched their palms and said, "You little devil, you are becoming more and more devilish!" Then each of them held a tiger talisman and made up a story together.
Later, when Jia Cong returned to the escort agency, Gong Sanyi looked at him and sighed, "I'm afraid Situ's dynasty is about to end."
Jia Cong said: "Not yet."
Gong San also said: "The majesty of the emperor is gone, and even the majesty of the tiger talisman is gone. Why didn't you give each of them a jade seal?"
Jia Cong said: "When they arrive at the fiefdom, they will prepare the jade seal for themselves. The tiger talisman is obtained from elsewhere, indicating that the military power is obtained from elsewhere, and they will be more cautious in using their troops. The jade seal is prepared by themselves, and the territory is their own.
I must not give it to others. As long as you give them a little time, even if you escape from Situ Pan and return to Beijing, no one will care about him. Mr. Gong, you can take revenge."
Gong Sanyi snorted: "You just deliberately destroyed their world."
Jia Cong pretended to shout: "You're wronged~~Jiu Feixue~~I've said it countless times, the Situ family's world was clearly ruined by the late emperor, don't blame me for it every two days, okay?
is innocent."
Gong Sanyi let out a long sigh, feeling quite undecided.
A few days later, Prince Ning smiled and waved two identical tiger charms in front of Situ Pan and said: "You two have been playing with the boss for so many years, and the others have been dead for so long. How can you still mess with your relationship?"
Bureau. With such a loyal subordinate, you and Lao San are still not as good as him in the end. Regardless of whether you have Lao San's one or not, since the elder brother's people say that every prince has a share, I will give you one."
Situ Pan was astonished. He took the tiger talisman in his hand and looked at it carefully for a long time before he said decisively: "This is fake!"
Prince Ning said, "It's a big box. It's naturally fake. But, who knows?" After saying this, he took one box out and left the other one on Situ Pan's desk.
Situ Pan was immediately returned to the mansion.
Standing at the gate of Prince Xian's Mansion, all the soldiers and horses around him had withdrawn, and it was deserted. When the disciples saw their prince coming back, they hurriedly welcomed him with tears. Situ Pan sighed and walked in slowly.
A few days later, Liu Aiyun came to find the Jia brothers and said, "I have found out."
Jia Cong was stunned: "What was found?"
Liu Aiyun said: "The marriage of your second master Bao and Miss Xue are all caused by the little emperor."
It turns out that he has a fancier's brother who is a father-in-law in the palace. However, the master whom this father-in-law serves has recently become the emperor, so he knows some information. The little emperor is young and has never thought of becoming an emperor before. Now, now
Although he lives under Fang Xiong's power every day, he is still an emperor! Now that he has become the emperor, he will inevitably think about things that he shouldn't think about. He considers day and night whether he can have a loyal and good guard to kill the traitor Fang Xiong. Then someone recommended him to King Jia Xue Sanjia
.
Since some people in the world are clear, others are confused. The little emperor's mother's family then racked their brains to get in touch with these three families. The Mei family's decision to cancel the engagement was an imperial edict from him. Someone in his mother's family wanted to propose marriage to Xue Baoqin. I thought it would be a sure thing.
That's it, if Aunt Xue gets Baochai, all the recent marriage proposals will be rejected. His cousin was rejected along with the other suitors. Shi Xiangyun also used his family's method to get a member of his mother's family.
The talented and beautiful cousin married into the Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Huan shouted: "That's not right, where is Princess Jian'an?"
Liu Aiyun said with a smile: "He doesn't do things carefully. Since my fan friend can get the trust from his brother, it is inevitable that someone will get the trust from other places. Princess Jian'an probably had her beard cut off by the sixth prince's family."
Jia Cong thought for a while: "This cut is too reckless."
Jia Huan yawned: "The Sixth Prince and his mother always come to our house to join in the fun, and I'm really annoyed."
Jia Cong and Yao'er exchanged a strange look.
Liu Aiyun said again: "By the way, because Princess Jian'an cut off Hu, the Rongguo Mansion announced that it would not negotiate marriages for your brothers in recent years. So I persuaded the fancier to persuade his brother.
Since there is no way to get married with the Rongguo Mansion, and the Shi family is no longer with these families, they still want to order someone to marry Miss Shi? There won't be much benefit. Guess what they said? "
Jia Cong said: "Do they think the historian is also good?"
Liu Aiyun said: "He said that he didn't intend to marry Miss Shi at all, but just brought some good people to confuse their family for a while. When the second master Bao was settled, none of these people had any intention of proposing to marry him. Miss Shi was just a mediocre person.
Being fooled."
Jia Huan frowned and said, "How stingy!"
Liu Aiyun said with a smile: "Your second grandma is probably not running away anymore."
Jia Huan twisted his neck: "Anyway, it's better than marrying someone from outside who doesn't know who he is." Then he asked Liu Aiyun, "That little emperor, are you ready to take revenge?"
Liu Aiyun said calmly: "The villain is just an actor, how can he take revenge on the emperor? The villain has asked the fans to spread the word. Today, Wen Tao and military strategy, Yao, Shun and Yu soup; Eight wastelands and blankets, the world will be peaceful. In the future
After Fang Xiong leaves the capital, no matter who is in charge next, if he goes to the market and inquires about it, he will surely receive many praises from the present. If he wants to establish a new king, I will definitely send people to send Wanmin Umbrella to cause trouble and refuse to agree.
"
Jia Huan was stunned for a moment and said, "Is this useful?"
Liu Aiyun said: "Anyway, we need a puppet. Whoever is established is not established. Since it can calm the people's hearts if we continue to use it now, it might as well save some trouble for the Ministry of Rites. It will cost a lot of money to play the enthronement ceremony again."
Jia Huan said: "Why don't I understand what you want to do? Doesn't he want to be the emperor?"
Jia Cong stabbed him in the arm: "Since he wants to be an emperor, he cannot be a prince. As a prince, you can still have a piece of territory, no matter how big or small it is. When you are an emperor, you will be depressed every day. Why is there another thief?
Why haven’t I seen any loyal ministers come to help me..."
Jia Huan rolled his eyes.
In the days that followed, all the princes left the capital to go to their fiefdoms. Fang Xiong stayed in the capital until the King of Shu left the capital, and he withdrew his troops and horses to accompany them. The capital suddenly felt empty.
As soon as Fang Xiong left, Situ Pan was surrounded by the ministers and went to the palace to serve as regent. The young emperor also bowed down and said, "I beg my uncle to take charge of the government."
Situ Pan sighed: "There is no way to preside over government affairs nowadays."
More than a month later, Tianjin's Royal Guards suddenly returned to Beijing without any reason! Fifty thousand soldiers and horses drove back to the capital in a mighty manner. Cao Datong still controlled Tianjin. I don't know whether he should be called the late emperor or the current Situ Li.
Get out!
The last group to enter the capital were Feng Tang Ganlei and Liu Dengxi. Situ Pan got the message early and met them at the city gate. When he saw the three of them, he said anxiously: "What's going on! Where is the saint?"
Feng Tang, Gan and Lei all shook their heads: "I wonder what is happening on the other side of the saint."
Liu Dengxi said solemnly: "Let's go back first."
When everyone returned to the palace and saw the new monarch, they all called him "Fifth Prince". The new monarch did not dare to be unhappy and only stammered a few words, "Thank you for your hard work, generals." Situ Pan said: "He is nothing but
He is a child and has nothing to do with him." Liu Deng stared at Xin Jun with a look of joy, and Xin Jun suddenly felt a basin of ice water pouring down on him, chilling him from the top of his head to the soles of his feet. Situ Pan hurriedly motioned to the eunuch on the side to guide him.
He went down.
Several people put Xinjun aside, and Situ Pan could not help but complain: "What are you doing? You have been in Tianjin for so long without doing anything, and then suddenly you came back, and the third brother was not rescued."
Liu Dengxi said: "I tramped up and down the Tianjin city countless times but could not find any clues. I eavesdropped on the discussions between Cao Datong and the people below, and there was no clue. Suddenly one day I got a letter from the emperor, saying that Cao Datong had conquered him.
!”
Situ Pan was stunned: "Conquered? Where are the others? Why doesn't Cao Datong come to Beijing?"
Liu Dengxi said: "A man with extremely high kung fu sent him a handwritten letter. I am sure his handwriting is correct. He said that he had his own arrangements and asked us to gather troops in Tianjin first, pretending that we were still confronting Cao Datong.
He had his own arrangements. The person who delivered the letter was not only very capable, but also spoke and behaved well. I asked him if the traitor Cao had forced me to write this letter. He said that the idiot Cao Datong didn't have the ability to subdue him. Let's leave it at that.
He’s gone! Even though he didn’t say much, I somehow believed him.”
Situ Pan frowned and said, "What about now? The capital is in chaos, why is the third brother just staring from the side?"
Liu Dengxi said: "I don't know what the saint was thinking. Later, I wrote several times. In addition to that person, there was another person who came, and he was also capable. Neither of them ever communicated by name. Until
A few days ago, he suddenly sent a decree, ordering the Yulin Army to return to Beijing and leave Tianjin alone. I was helpless, having been in Tianjin for such a long time, and then came back again in a daze."
Situ Pan became more and more surprised: "You princes are dividing the world among themselves, but he doesn't care? What does he want to do?"
Liu Dengxi sighed: "I am old and I really don't know what the saint is going to do."
Feng Tang also said: "The last general and the monk Zhang Er are confused. This matter is very strange, and the true face of the saint cannot be seen. The letters, seals and tiger talismans sent are all genuine."
Situ Pan complained: "Now that the world is in chaos, what is he doing mysteriously? The foundation is not stable in the first place." He thought for a while and said, "Since Eunuch Liu searched Tianjin and couldn't find him, he can't find him anymore."
If you say you have conquered Cao Datong, could it mean that he has already left Tianjin and gone elsewhere?"
Liu Deng said happily: "The Za family has also suspected this, but firstly there is no evidence, and secondly we don't know where he went."
Gan Lei said from the side: "Is it possible that the saint was injured and unable to move, and he is recuperating?"
Situ Pan said: "It's time to return to Beijing after being raised for such a long time. The imperial doctors at the Imperial Hospital are always better than ordinary private doctors."
Several people guessed for a long time, but couldn't guess at all. They had to disperse temporarily and put soldiers everywhere to appease the people.
A few days later, news came from Tianjin that Cao Datong led his soldiers to board a ship and leave the port from Tianjin Port, and disappeared without a trace!
