Xu Jiang knew that Song Chengxuan had won a great victory in the battle of Changzhou, and Changzhou soldiers came to Beijing to receive rewards from the imperial court.
Changzhou soldiers were stationed in the West Camp. They heard the soldiers talk about the dangers of the Changzhou war. The soldiers respected and awed the young General Song.
Because he was very curious about General Song, he took a special look when General Song came to inspect the camp. At that time, General Song was wearing a suit of armor and looked very heroic. However, it cannot be compared with now. Military generals can only fight against the enemy.
Only then can you see your true ability.
Xu Jiang didn't know what kind of person Song Chengxuan was before, but now he has truly felt how terrifying this person is.
His team is not without strength, otherwise he would not be sure to inflict heavy losses on the pro-army forces, only to be captured in the blink of an eye.
They lost this battle without even making a sound.
Xu Jiang felt a bit unwilling in his heart. How could he be so cowardly? He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to pick up the long sword on the ground with his uninjured arm and waved it at Song Chengxuan.
There was a "bang" sound, and the long sword in Xu Jiang's hand was split into two. The cold light cut off his sword and did not stop it but fell directly from his head.
Xu Jiang's helmet fell off, and there was a "buzzing" sound in his ears. The huge strength shocked his mind, and his vision suddenly turned black. He felt Wei E coming forward to help him, but she couldn't support him.
Holding his weight and falling to the ground with him.
Song Chengxuan glanced at Xu Jiang and said calmly: "The Wei family in Xiangyang is full of loyalty. Back then, they were framed for not fearing the power of the Zhang family. The clan members risked their lives to preserve the blood of the Wei family. If you are bent on revenge, do not distinguish right from wrong, and are used by others, you will eventually be taken advantage of.
It resulted in a big mistake and brought disgrace to the reputation of our ancestors.
If he intends to avenge your Wei family, Zhang Yuci has already been imprisoned, has he ever mentioned to the court that the Zhang family wrongfully accused the court of loyalty in order to eliminate dissidents and frame them up? "
Xu Jiang couldn't help but be startled.
Song Chengxuan continued: "I'm afraid even you have forgotten to redress your grievances. You only thought about his safety and helped him in his rebellion at the critical moment.
Just because he hinted that it is useless for you to redress your grievances to the court, everything will really be different only if he ascends the throne, so he is not forced to resist, he is already prepared."
Wei E felt sad. They only knew that the prince was in a difficult situation. In order to help those who were murdered by the Zhang family out of danger, they would get burned if they were not careful.
But now think about it, the danger had passed when the prince appeared. He recruited them and just allowed their hatred to grow. Just like Huijing said, he told them that there are many injustices in the world and no one can help them but themselves.
To fight, he has seen too many people develop hatred. Everyone, including Xu Jiang, is waiting for an opportunity to explode.
Wei E looked at Xu Jiang: "Has Manager Fang revealed the news to you a long time ago, saying that the imperial court is planning to take action against the prince?"
Xu Jiang nodded blankly.
Wei E said: "It is a lie that King Cheng left the capital to rebel. Manager Fang ordered people to kill King Cheng."
Xu Jiang couldn't understand: "What are you talking about?"
Wei E said: "I can't tell clearly, but it is possible that the prince ordered someone to arrest King Cheng and frame him for rebellion, which led to today's chaos in the capital."
As soon as Wei E finished speaking, she heard the deputy general tell Song Chengxuan: "Prince Cheng has been found."
Xu Jiang subconsciously followed Song Chengxuan's gaze and saw King Cheng, who was in ragged clothes and with a haggard face, staggering over while being protected by others.
Seeing Song Chengxuan, King Cheng shed tears and said, "Master Song, I have not fled the capital, nor have I any intention of rebellion. Now I am going to the palace to clear my grievances to the emperor."
Xu Jiang opened his eyes wide and did not react for a while.
"Xu Jiang," Wei E said, "we have to stop those people who have been informed by the Fang family... We cannot let them die in confusion."
Xu Jiang looked at Wei E. He felt that the imperial court would not let them leave easily. They gathered here and started fighting with the imperial soldiers, which was tantamount to treason.
Song Chengxuan glanced at the deputy general beside him, who immediately ordered the soldiers to let go of Xu Jiang's men.
Song Chengxuan took King Cheng away, leaving Xu Jiang and others behind.
"Let's go," Wei E helped Xu Jiang, "It's true and you can't tell it from false. You'll know it just by looking at it." This is why Miss Xu and Master Song dared to let them go.
What you see with your own eyes is true. Never be afraid to see the truth.
Xu Jiang and others left quickly and quickly disappeared on the street.
…
When King Cheng saw Song Chengxuan, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pull Song Chengxuan's arm. On the way back to the capital, he sat on the horse with his back straight, thinking about protecting the face of the emperor's relatives. After entering the city, he saw the chaos in the capital.
Elephant, he couldn't help but be shocked, everything was more terrifying than he thought.
King Cheng did not dare to think about what would happen if he was killed like this and was charged with treason. Even if he died, he would not be able to live in peace.
"Lord Song, we must catch the culprit and get rid of the traitor for Zhou Dynasty," King Cheng looked at Song Chengxuan longingly, "The Qi family's children are so poor that they have fallen like this."
The case of King An and King Wei brought the entire Qi family to death.
He, Zong Zhengqing, was too derelict in his duties.
Song Chengxuan glanced at the direction Xu Jiang left: "Xu Jiang is a descendant of the Wei family in Xiangyang. The Wei family was framed for rebellion. He took the opportunity to win over the descendants of the Wei family. There are many such examples. If there were not those unjust cases, there would not be today's disaster."
King Cheng nodded repeatedly. He had tasted the feeling of being framed. The Qi family could not go on like this. He wanted to go to the palace to face the saint. In addition to asking the emperor to find out the case, he also wanted to bring King An and King Wei to the palace.
The case will be thoroughly clarified and the names of those officials who were wrongly accused will be cleared.
Song Chengxuan looked at the deputy general: "Send King Cheng into the palace."
The deputy general responded.
Song Chengxuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "I still want to lead the troops out of the city, so I won't escort the prince."
King Cheng hurriedly said: "Whether we can resolve the crisis in the capital depends on the general."
He was not praising Song Chengxuan indiscriminately. He was in a mess everywhere along the way. The generals of Jingwei also looked confused when they saw him, like a headless fly, completely losing their direction. Only Song Chengxuan looked clear and led this group of soldiers to move.
Quickly, everything is still in order.
Seeing Song Chengxuan, he breathed a sigh of relief. For some reason, he felt that only Song Chengxuan could calm down the chaos. This feeling seemed very familiar. Once upon a time... the late emperor was seriously ill and the court was in chaos. They were all afraid that the Zhang family would seize power.
, and then welcomed King Wei back.
King Cheng shook his head and looked at Song Chengxuan's back in shock. How could he compare Song Chengxuan to King Wei? He was really confused.
…
outside the city.
The clan's carriages and horses are still galloping on the official road.
"Stop...stop..."
The steward next to Prince Zhaohuai shouted: "Have a rest for a while, Prince Zhaohuai's body can't bear it anymore."
