On October 14th, it was a sleepless night. The rebellion of Pengcheng demon Lu Song was pursued and suppressed by Chen Caozhi, Ran Sheng, Mao Anzhi, Huan Mi, Yin Kang and others. The Tianshi who broke into Taicheng Of the 413 Taoists, 193 were killed on the spot, and the rest were all captured. There were also many casualties in the palace, including soldiers, 87 guards, chamberlains, maids, and minor officials. Seventy-six servants died. Most of these palace guards were caught off guard when Lu Chang and his troops broke into Taicheng. When Chen Caozhi, Mao Anzhi and others arrived, the rebels were basically on the chopping block. Fish and meat, a mob, vulnerable to attack——
Xu Long and Wang Guo led the rebels to attack Chongde Palace in the most thrilling way. If General Yin Kang of the Left Guard arrived one step later, Empress Dowager Chu would most likely fall into the hands of these traitors. She was born in a Nandu family and entered the palace at the age of sixteen. Although Empress Dowager Chu had experienced political strife, she had never experienced such a rebellion that reached the palace gate, and she almost fell ill from shock——
About half an hour later, at the end of the year, Emperor Sima Yu, accompanied by Xi Chao, Chen Caozhi, Huan Mi, and Gao Song, came down to Chongde Palace to greet Empress Dowager Chu. However, they saw that the palace gate was in ruins and the dead body was not there yet. Cleaning it up is really shocking——
Empress Dowager Chu asked that all the rebels had been wiped out, and then she calmed down. She also learned that the demon Lu Song was falsely claiming to have been ordered by her to welcome Sima Yi, the king of the East China Sea, to return to the throne. Empress Dowager Chu was secretly frightened. Could it be that Emperor Sima Yu came here to ask for guilt? What did you mean? Then he asked: "Has your Majesty ever tried a traitor?"
Emperor Sima Yu said: "We have escorted several people from Lu Song to the Secret Service for interrogation."
Empress Dowager Chu asked: "Has the King of East China Sea sealed the country?"
Emperor Sima Yu said: "She should still be on the way." Seeing the strange look on Empress Dowager Chu's face, he suddenly understood and said sincerely: "Yu definitely has no doubts about the Queen Mother's intentions. Who doesn't respect the Queen Mother's virtues?" He turned to Chen Cao. : "Fuck it, tell the Queen Mother what happened." Sima Yu, who had a lot of troubles, was really a frank and warm person, but as an emperor, he was a little scheming.
Chen Caozhi saluted the Empress Dowager Chu and said: "At the beginning of Xu hour tonight, Zhi Fahan, a disciple of Dong'an Temple, hurriedly found the minister and said that one of Lu Chang's followers fled to Dong'an Temple because he was unwilling to follow his teacher to rebel. The Duke knew that Lu Chang was about to attack Taicheng at night, so he ordered Zhi Fahan to come to the city quickly to warn him. Since Zhi Fahan and the minister were old acquaintances, he went to look for him along the way. The minister immediately went to see Shilang Xi and met with him again. Xi Shilang went to see Su Wei Zhonglang General Mao Anzhi. General Mao sent someone to inform Huan Mi, the leader of the Central Army. At the same time, he rushed to Shenwumen with his brothers and more than 50 of his men, and intercepted the attempt to attack Zhongzhai in the Wing Hall. The traitor Lu Song who held the emperor hostage, General Huan arrived shortly after, and General Yin Kang of the Left Guard was ordered to protect the Empress Dowager. Fortunately, the Emperor and Heaven protected him, and both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were safe."
Queen Mother Chu asked: "How many people were killed or injured in the palace?"
Huan Mi, who was in charge of the guards inside and outside the palace, looked ashamed and reported the death and injury of the palace guards to Empress Dowager Chu. Empress Dowager Chu told her to have a good life, care for and deal with the aftermath——
At midnight, Emperor Sima Yu took Xi Chao, Chen Caozhi and others to leave Chongde Palace and came to the west hall of Tai Chi Hall. At this time, hundreds of officials who came after hearing the news gathered together in silence. Such a shocking event had happened in Taicheng. , someone must be held accountable.
Lu Shichang, the Minister of the Five Arms, knelt down to apologize and asked to be relieved of his post as the Minister of the Five Arms.
When Huan Mi, the leader of the Central Military Commission, saw Lu Shi pleading guilty, he had no choice but to kneel down and ask for dismissal to apologize.
Emperor Sima Yu said: "It is not the time to hold people accountable at this time. We will discuss it after the traitors are put on trial."
Lu Shi and Huan Mi Weiwei retreated. Lu Shi was embarrassed and had no place. The Guangmo Gate in Dongcheng was easily defeated by hundreds of Tianshi Dao rebels. He, the Minister of the Five Soldiers, could not absolve himself of the blame. Relatively speaking, Huan Mi had to shoulder the blame. The responsibility is lighter——
At the same time, the Tingwei went to the palace to report the results of the trial to the emperor. With the confession, the cause and course of the Tianshi Dao rebellion were clear. The demon Lu Song sent his disciple Xu Long to falsely pass on the Queen Mother's secret edict in order to deceive the King of East China Sea to return. Jiankang, in the name of reviving the deposed emperor, started a rebellion. The King of Donghai did not obey, so Lu Song gathered the fugitives and ignorant people, attacked Guangmomen at night, broke into Yunlongmen of Taicheng, and tried to kidnap the emperor and the queen mother——
Gao Song, the servant in charge, said: "Since the thief Xu Long saw the King of Donghai and was scolded by him and ran away, this matter is not trivial. Why didn't Shi Yushi, who was in charge of supervision, send someone to retaliate?"
All the officials paid attention to Lu Shi, the Minister of the Five Soldiers, and they all knew that the censor responsible for supervising the return of King Donghai to the kingdom was Lu Qin, the second son of Lu Shi.
Lu Shi's face turned earthy, and he apologized: "The guilty minister's son neglected his duties, and it was all because the guilty minister neglected to discipline him. The guilty minister accepted the punishment willingly."
Xie An said: "According to Lu Song's confession, there are still hundreds of Celestial Master Tao believers gathered in the Lingkou area. They are all refugees from Dongyang and Xin'an areas. They were ordered by Lu Song to prevent the King of Donghai from returning to the feudal country. If these refugees had not If you try to appease him, it may lead to chaos."
Wang Biao said: "What Anshi said is absolutely true. Lu Song and his gang members who participated in the rebellion in Taicheng must be severely punished, and the fools who were bewitched by the evil talk must be enlightened and appeased. Otherwise, they may be afraid of coercing the King of East China Sea to rebel." , since last winter, there has been a severe drought in Jiangdong, and victims are everywhere. When the seeds of unrest come together, it is very easy for them to grow into a chaotic tide of refugees."
Emperor Sima Yu was worried, so he ordered his lieutenant Xie An and the guard general Jiang Sixuan to lead a thousand troops to set out overnight and rush to the entrance of the Jinling Tomb. of refugees——
When Chen Caozhi and Xi went beyond Taicheng, it was already dawn. There were tight guards inside and outside Taicheng. Xi Chao looked at it and muttered: "It's not too late to mend the situation." He looked sideways at Chen Caozhi and said, "Zizhong He accomplished a great feat last night. If he had been one step late, Lu Chang would have most likely succeeded in his conspiracy, which would really make the world a laughing stock. Just imagine, a mere 400 people broke through the barriers all the way into Taicheng and actually threatened to kidnap the emperor. This When the news reaches Di Qin and Xianbei, they will be ridiculed. Fu Jian and Murong Ke will regard the Jin army as a country chicken and a dog, and will raise troops to go south."
