Chapter 184 ? Mutiny (Part 2)(1/2)
Hu Jie and Long Jie armies were in charge of the guards, the commander Li Chongjin. The chief inspector of the Palace Front Office was the chief inspector of Zhao Kuangyin, who was usually in charge of the "Crane Control", the "Iron Cavalry" armies and the teams in front of the Palace Front Office.
Jiang Qiubai and Fan Zhi and Wang Pu decided that whenever a large army sent troops to fight in the future, if the generals in the front office of the Palace should command the army, the guards should be the main force. Similarly, if the generals in the Guards took power, the guards should be the main force, the guards should be the troops in the front office of the Palace to prevent the generals who have bad intentions from leading the direct troops to cause mutiny.
Now that he heard that the troops were mainly composed of the guards and horses, Jiang Qiubai felt a little relieved. He also saw Yan Qiu take out an imperial edict and a talisman from his arms. "When Zhao Dianjian discussed sending troops with the officials of the Privy Council, he asked Jiang Shishu to be the military commander of the North to assist him in commanding the three armies. The Queen Mother, Lord Fan, was the same, and he wanted his disciples to order Fu Cheng and his uncle to supervise the military command."
"Oh?! Is it Zhao Dianjian, please help me to follow the army?"
"When Lord Fan and the edict and the edict were spoken to his disciples in this way, and he ordered his uncle to go directly to the front of the battle after receiving the edict."
Jiang Qiubai felt very at ease, but when he thought that the military situation was urgent, he left Mingwu, Xiao Muyun and others and left the island, and ordered Manager Pei to return to Kaifeng to inform Fan Zhi that he had already taken the order. He led Yan Qiu and Gong Shaowen to the front of the battle.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, he arrived at Chenqiaoyi, which was more than a hundred miles away from Kaifeng City. He saw the camp where the three armies were stationed from afar. However, if the military situation was urgent, it would be impossible for the troops to stay and delay at will. Jiang Qiubai was shocked and suspicious.
The distance was more than a hundred feet away from the camp, but a shout sounded, 'We are willing to hold the inspectors as the emperor..."
“Long live the inspection…”
"Long live the Grand Marshal..."
Jiang Qiubai's soul was still alive, and Yan Qiu was shocked and said, "Hold the inspector to be the emperor? This is a mutiny! Uncle Master, what should I do?"
Jiang Qiubai was guessing that the person who had conspired with Zhi to seize the fortune of the dragon vein was Zhao Kuangyin. Thinking of what Li Guanshu said that day, if the hearts of people are facing the Great Zhou, the fortune of the dragon vein can return. His thoughts changed sharply and said, "Don't panic, you two, hurry back to Kaifeng and Lord Baofan and others."
Yan Qiuyan said: "How to speak?"
"But let the deputy commander of the Sima Infantry Army, Han Tong, the deputy commander of the Ministry of the Palace Front of the Beijing Office be seized first, and lead the patrol officers and the troops of the Dawei camps to guard the Kyoto. The fast horse commanded the Xijing to stay in Xiang Gong, the Hezhong Jieduo, and the Huainan Jieduo, Li Chongjin, to go to Beijing to serve the king. Do you two remember?"
Yan Qiu and Gong Shaowen looked at each other and nodded, "Disciple has written down. But how can Lord Fan easily write such a big thing?"
Jiang Qiubai nodded and handed Yan Shaoqiu the military commander's order and the jade pendant he usually wore with him. "This jade pendant has been with me for many years. Lord Fan and Lord Wang have seen it. They will believe it. The six soldiers shouted like this, but they would immediately return to Beijing to cause trouble. I will try to delay time in the army, go quickly..."
Looking at Yan, after Gong and the others disappeared into the vast night, Jiang Qiubai took a breath and jumped towards the Central Military Camp.
With his skills, he suddenly flew over the tent like a night eagle and quickly glanced at the soldiers who were leaning over in front of the tent. Jiang Qiubai thought to himself and suddenly broke into the top of the tent. The people in the tent thought that someone would enter through the top of the tent, but one of them could not dodge, but Jiang Qiubai stepped on his back, screamed and lay directly on the ground.
The kneeling and worshippers who stood up drew their swords, but they saw that the people who came to see Jiang Qiubai were all surprised. After looking at each other, they put away their weapons and led their bodies to retreat to the low-end cases on both sides and stood up.
The person who was kneeling outside the tent also stood up, but heard someone shouting, "It was Jiang Qiubai who came..."
"If you don't have any intentions, kill him..."
"Kill Jiang Qiubai..."
I thought it was because I knew that Jiang Qiubai was loyal to Guo Rong, but the soldiers wanted to remove him.
"Rareless." Gao Huaidexing came to the tent and scolded: "Why can Lord Jiang be offended by you..."
In an instant, the shouts of soldiers outside the tent suddenly became quiet. Jiang Qiu said that he had not heard the words of soldiers outside the tent. His left foot was removed from Zhang Lingduo, who was trampled on the ground and bleeding from the corner of his mouth. With his skills, this kick could be used to leverage the force to spread. These mutiny generals trampled Zhang Lingduo for half his life.
He looked coldly at Zhao Kuangyin who was standing in front of the main position and looked astonished. He looked at the yellow robe slowly sliding off his body. He held back the shock in his heart and slowly walked towards Zhao Kuangyin.
Zhao Kuangyin, whose face changed a lot, suddenly bypassed the case before Jiang Qiubai walked to the front of the case and reached out to grab Jiang Qiubai's sleeve robe, "Sir Jiang save me..."
Before Jiang Qiubai could answer, he heard a voice sounding from his left side, "The only virtue in the world is here, why does Master Dingjian say this?"
When Jiang Qiubai heard the sound, he looked at him, but the person who spoke was Zhao Yanhui, the commander of the right wing of the Hujie Army.
"It seems that you are trying to deceive the morale of the army?" Jiang Qiubai said in a deep voice.
"Master Jiang is very knowledgeable, so he should know the 'official family' of the predecessor Jiang Ji?" Zhao Yanhui did not answer a question when Jiang Qiubai looked at him.
The "Jiang Ji Wan Ji's Theory" means that the "Three Emperors are in the world, the Five Emperors' Family is in the world, the Emperor's Mass Three and Five virtues are called the official family." The three Emperors are Fuxi, Nuwa, Yan Emperor, and the Five Emperors are Huangdi, Zhuanxu, Emperor Ku, Tang Yao, and Yu Shun. Their thrones are all abdicated, rather than inheritance from one family. In terms of the "Jiang Ji Wan Ji's Theory", the emperor is called the "official family" is a virtuous king who is supported by others.
However, the "Han Family Yi Zhuan" is a theory of "Five Emperors and Three Kings, and the Three Kings," and the three kings refer to Xia, Shang and Zhou. Since the Five Emperors, the inheritance of the throne of the emperor is actually belonged to one family. Although the "official family" also refers to the emperor, the inheritance of the throne is hereditary.
Jiang Qiubai knew a lot of talent, but knew the meaning of Zhao Yanhui's words, and snorted coldly, "Jiang Ji's famous disciples flattered the Cao family, tampered with the words of the sages and sages, and confused the world and fooled the world. After Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, did you hear that Jiang Ji used the title of "official family" when he was called Cao Pi? The Five Emperors were not related to the relatives, so where did the theory of "Five Emperors' Family" start?"
"What Mr. Jiang Ji said about 'family and worldly' means that only those with virtue can live in the position of emperors..."
Before Zhao Yanhui could finish his speech, Jiang Qiubai said in a silence: "Since the Three Kings, all the inheritance of the throne has been hereditary. Jiang also knew that the world was not inherent in one family and one surname, and those with virtue could be replaced. But from the establishment of Taizu's dynasty to the succession of the previous emperor, they were all benevolent and political and the people. Where did they do evil? "
"What Lord Zhao said is that those who are virtuous are the emperors who are the kings of the world." Zhao Puyan, the secretary standing beside Zhao Kuangyin, said: "Chai Shouli kills people at will, and all officials only know the grievances of the dead. They will tell the truth on paper that the last emperor has been the kings of the world and is still a fair person who dies in vain? If it were not the monarch of the world, where would the benevolent government start?"
Chai Shouli was the biological father of Guo Rong. Since Guo Rong adopted Guo Wei as his son, Guo Rong followed the customs and was called the uncle. Later, the royal family member was granted the title of Chai Shouli as the Jinzi Guanglu Dafu, the procuratorate of Sikong, and the institution of Luoyang. From Guo Rong ascended the throne to his death, Chai Shouli never took a step to Kaifeng to meet him.
In the summer of the fourth year of Xiande, Chai Shouli killed a commoner in vain, and the family members of the deceased complained. The officials of Luoyang did not dare to make a decision, so they presented the paper to the court. However, since ancient times, they have been governing the world with filial piety. "Destroying relatives for justice" will lead to moral decay and family affection. Therefore, in the law, there is a theory that "kind relatives can stay with each other."
In addition to the crime of treason, it is illegal and has blood ties between three generations. It is a feasible act of sheltering without being punished by law. "Children hide their parents, wives hide their husbands, grandsons hide their grandparents. Parents hide their children, husbands hide their wives, and grandparents hide their grandchildren."
Chai Shouli was Guo Rong's father, but there was no act of punishing his father with his son. Guo Rong naturally ignored the letter presented in the form of official documents. Jiang Qiubai did not expect that Zhao Pu would attack Guo Rong with this matter, and laughed furiously, "Duke Xing Chai alone will make the world without any vain from now on? Son Xing Father, destroying his nature and being inhumane, is it a benevolence?"
"As Lord Jiang said, Chai Shouli can kill people at will without restraint?" Zhao Pu sneered, "Mencius said: Shun was the emperor, and when Wusou (Shun's father) killed people, Shun could abandon the world and secretly bear it and flee, saying that the world can be without Shun, but it must be fair. Shun did not punish his father for being filial, and fled to his father for being the most righteous way. The former emperor did not hear or ask, where did he place justice?"
Jiang Qiubai said sternly: "The people are suffering from division for a long time. The late emperor is wise and powerful, but he makes the great cause of unification of the world the most important. How can we avoid the important and follow the light of the people in the world by using the sage of Meng Sheng?"
"We also know the concerns of the late emperor, but we have given a letter to advise Chai Shouli, which will convince us. However, the late emperor ignored him and showed that his personal feelings were the most important thing in his heart, not the heart of the world as Ming Gong..." Zhao Pu sneered.
"No," Zhao Yanhui continued, "In the third year of Xiande, the Taiwei Zhao Gong went to Chuzhou City in the middle of the night to call the gate, and ordered the investigation of the king's affairs first. The enemy soldiers were afraid that the enemy soldiers would lurk everywhere and take the opportunity to enter the city, but they would defend the military discipline and wait for Tianxiao to send Zhao Gong into the city."
"At that time, Mr. Zhao was sick and was severely affected by the cold at night. Afterwards, Master Jian served his subordinates and cried and accused him of guilt. Compared with the late emperor's actions of killing Chai Shouli, Lord Jiang thought, who is the best man in the world?"
After Zhao Kuangyin conquered Chuzhou, his father Zhao Hongyin led his troops to the city at midnight to call the gate. Zhao Kuangyin refused to open the city gate on the grounds that the darkness of the night was afraid that Tang soldiers would lurk everywhere to enter the city. He waited until dawn to allow Zhao Hongyin to enter the city. Zhao Hongyin was in good health at that time and was unable to enter the city and suffered a cold. His condition worsened and he died soon after.
Jiang Qiubai did not expect Zhao Yanhui to make a statement, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute it. He was stunned, but someone outside the account shouted: "Master Jiang said that the late emperor was the great cause of unification of the world, but in our opinion, this is not the case..."
There were dark soldiers outside the tent, but I don’t know who said that. Jiang Qiubai was waiting for the people who spoke to speak, but only heard someone outside the tent responding: “Yes, Li Jing of the Southern Tang Dynasty was afraid of my great Zhou Tianwei. Although the emperor was known as the king of the country and seemed to be surrendering, his troops were still strong. If it was repeated in the future, it would cause the people of the Central Plains to suffer and cause blood to flow out of my blood to the soldiers who had fought in the previous southern expedition."
In order to see clearly, Jiang Qiubai was the commander-in-chief of the palace, Wang Yansheng, in order to see clearly the person who said that he was the commander-in-chief of the palace.
But seeing Jiang Qiubai's aggressive gaze, Wang Yansheng moved his body and hid behind the soldiers in the front row, and said in his mouth: "Li Jing of the Southern Tang Dynasty wrote a letter to ask for surrender. He should be allowed to send someone to the states in the south of the Yangtze River. The late emperor not only refused, but instead sent someone to tell Li Jing that he wanted to build a city, repair armor and soldiers, and said that he would be in charge of the key points and to make plans for his descendants. Is it necessary to ask Lord Jiang, what was the intention of the late emperor's move? Is it to let the Southern Tang attack our Great Zhou in the future?"
"The Southern Tang surrendered to my family, but I can trust them. And when my Great Zhou Dynasty took over the Southern Han Dynasty and Western Shu, I wanted to borrow the power of the Jiangnan army. Even if we go to take over, it is inevitable to repair the city and increase the troops. What's wrong with Li Jing?"
Guo Rong's plan to unify the world was to first conquer the Southern Tang, the Southern Han, and the Western Shu, then lead the troops north to seize the Northern Han, recover the sixteen prefectures of Youyun, and make the Khitan naturalized.
Hearing what Chu Nanfeng said, he thought that the person who was planning to seize the dragon vein fortune was for the Khitan, and was eager to avenge Wu Wangbo and others, so he had the idea of moving to the north. He changed the national policy and took the revenge of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun and captured the Khitan first, and he had more considerations about Li Jingqi's request for surrender.
Treat Li Jing with the courtesy of the vassal kings. First, the subjects of the vassal state who were called emperors in the Southern Han, Western Shu and Northern Han could perceive the benevolence of the Great Zhou emperor under the intimidation of the great Zhou Dynasty. In the future, if Li Jing was asked to go to the vassal state to become a minister, it would make the vassal kings such as the Qian family of Wu and Yue, the Gao family of the South, and the will of the country would have been devastated. Then there would be more variables.
As Jiang Qiubai said, even if the Great Zhou troops took over, they would have to repair the city and repair the armor and troops in order to attack the Southern Han and Western Shu in the future. Although Guo Rong was eager to fight north and dared to make Li Jing repair the city and increase the troops, he was also confident, because as long as he did not die, it was expected that Li Jing would never be able to repeat it.
"Hehe, but if you trust the Southern Tang, then after the death of the late emperor, why did Lord Jiang and the prime ministers let Li Chong join Lord Li and move troops to Yangzhou to shock the Southern Tang?"
Jiang Qiubai was speechless for a moment. If Guo Rong was alive, he could shock the Southern Tang with his wise and powerful power. After his death, Jiang Qiubai, Fan Zhi and others were worried that there would be changes in the Southern Tang Dynasty, so the brave and warlike Li Chong went to guard Yangzhou.
Zhao Pu continued to say: "The collapse of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was caused by separating the vassal states that had self-respected troops. Anyone with a powerful and powerful lord would not let Li Jing claim that he was a vassal state. He should have entered the court when he begged for surrender and sent his civil servants and military generals to take over the prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Then the Southern Han and Western Shu will be afraid of the power of our Great Zhou Tianwei, or they will surrender without fighting. Even if they cannot, they can still raise troops to conquer, but they think that they can make the two places be taken by our Great Zhou within five years. And the Wu and Yue and Jingnan vassal states will even ask themselves to remove the title of king and become court officials."
"I will send troops to the north to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty, recover the sixteen prefectures of Youyun, and conquer the Khitan. At that time, the Western Liang Dynasty will surrender to our Great Zhou Dynasty and show the glory of the Tang Dynasty..."
Zhao Pu paused and looked at Jiang Qiubai, "The world is divided and the people are suffering for a long time. The soldiers of the three armies all hope that the heroes will be united. If the late emperor had great talents, how could he keep Li Jing in his own hands and keep future troubles and descendants?"
At this time, someone outside the account shouted: "Emperor Shizong is not only not talented but also a nepotist..."
Another person said, "Yes, in the Battle of Gaoping that day, we fought to the death on the battlefield. Chang Qingqing made Zhang Yuanhui lose his horse with a poisonous snake, and then he could see the princess Feng. We cut off Zhang Ni's head, but he got the position of a leader..."
"We serve the country and fight bloody battles, and Emperor Shizong can ignore it. Now the new emperor is young, and he doesn't know that Zhao Dianjian, who is good at responsibilities, is the emperor..."
"Do you should support Zhao Dianjian as the emperor..."
“Long live the inspection…”
As the soldiers shouted, Jiang Qiubai fell into an ice cave. He suddenly sweated and took a breath, calmed down. He looked at Zhao Kuangyin, who had returned to the main seat, sitting down, "Where is Zhiguang?"
"Zhi Guang? Who is he?" Zhao Kuangyin looked surprised and suspicious.
Jiang Qiubai clenched his fists tightly, and the noise of soldiers outside the tent was heard, but the bones on his body were slammed. He stared at Zhao Kuangyin and said slowly: "Is Zhiguang in this army?"
But if Xiao Muyun, Mingwu and others searched for Khitan, but Goryeo could not see any trace of wisdom, he was now suspected of hiding in the army.
"Xiaguan really doesn't know who Zhiguang is? How could he know where he is..." Zhao Kuangyin stood up, and under Jiang Qiubai's eyes, he took a step back, and his left foot suddenly stepped on the yellow robe that had slid to the ground.
At this time, Zhao Yanhui and Murong Yanzhao rushed to Zhao Kuangyin and stood up. Looking at Jiang Qiubai, who was shaking slightly, Zhao Yanhui swallowed his saliva and said, "Master Jiang's martial arts are superb. His every move can make us die in a slight way. However, there are 50,000 soldiers from the six soldiers outside the tent. Master Jiang thinks it's endless to kill them?"
"You are greedy for wealth and honor, but you are causing me to be unfaithful and unrighteous," Zhao Kuangyin pushed away the two people in front of him and said, "You two are leaving, let me explain to Lord Jiang."
Jiang Qiubai had already concluded that Zhao Kuangyin was a person who colluded with Zhi to seize the fortune of the dragon vein. If he hadn't been concerned about the damage to the fortune of the dragon vein, he would have slapped him to death with one palm.
Now, when he saw his righteousness, his heart was angry again. Thinking of what Li Guanshu said that day, he had to force himself to suppress his anger, "Let me ask you, do you really not know the suffering of wisdom, Zhiguang and the other two?"
Murong Yanzhao and others did not know the hardship of Zhiguang. Why did Zhiguang even understand why Jiang Qiubai was in such a situation, but he forced Zhao Kuangyin to know these two people. He looked at each other for a moment, shocked and suspicious.
"If Lord Jiang doesn't believe it, the official will swear to Lord Jiang..."
"Okay, you're here to make a vow." Jiang Qiubai said in a deep voice.
Jiang Qiubai was using the power of the elixir to speak at this time, but his voice was not loud, but he suppressed the noise of soldiers within a hundred feet. In an instant, the inside and outside of the tent suddenly became quiet.
Zhao Kuangyin looked around, coughed lightly, and sweared, "If I, Zhao Kuangyin, recognize the suffering of Zhishen in Lord Jiang's words, Zhiguang and the other two will be the five poisons that will pierce the heart in the future and will not die well."
Zhao Kuangyin dared to swear like this because except Long Congyun, he and Zhiku and Zhiguang had never met.
But when Zhao Kuangyin made an oath, he looked calm and unafraid. Jiang Qiubai was shocked and looked at Murong Yanzhao, "Mr. Murong, is the military situation of the Khitan invasion true?"
Murong Yanzhao looked at the soldiers outside the tent and sighed, but he did not answer.
Judging from Murong Yanzhao's expression, Jiang Qiubai already knew the so-called military information of the Khitan invasion, and was lying to report military information for the guards, Du Yuhou Han Lingkun. But he knew that the mutiny was not just the 50,000 troops at the moment, and his heart became nervous again. After a sudden change of thought, he said to Zhao Kuangyin: "What do you mean by saying that you asked me to save me?"
Zhao Kuangyin glanced over Murong Yanzhao's generals, sighed, and suddenly bowed and bowed, "Zhao, but I want to discuss something secretly with Lord Jiang, please leave for the time being..."
Murong Yanzhao and others looked at each other, nodded, and said in unison: "I will obey the order."
But when I arrived at the entrance of the tent, it was blocked by the soldiers and generals in front of the tent. But when someone shouted among the soldiers and generals, "We have already whispered. If the inspection is unwilling to support us, we have to choose another wise ruler..."
To be continued...
