Chapter eight hundred and seventy-four: decisive battle in Bianjing
Chapter 874: Decisive Battle against Bianjing
A courtyard in Bianjing City seems very inconspicuous. It used to be a residence for a wealthy family, but later the wealthy family moved to Quanzhou and became deserted. In just a few days, someone suddenly moved in and became a little popular since then.
A strong man dressed in ordinary clothes rode to the courtyard, slapped the door and went in. The doorman looked at him, whispered a few words to him, and then flashed to let the strong man go in. [The latest updates are all at www.piaotian.com.com. The strong man arrived at the main hall, stepped into the threshold and went to Natou to worship: "Zhou Tao, the 100 Households in the inner city of the capital, met Mr. Zhou Tao."
This gentleman is Chen Ji. Chen Ji raised his aggressive eyes, with bloodshot in his eyes. He said lightly: "What's the news?"
"The third prince committed suicide by taking poison at midnight last night."
Chen Ji did not show any surprises, licked his mouth lightly, and said lightly: "Are you really taking poison?"
"It's not clear." Zhou Tao showed a look of shame and said, "Originally, people were installed in the Third Prince's mansion, but last night, the Third Prince was locked in the hall. Later, Li Bangyan went in and talked to him. It was only early this morning that the Third Prince had died of poisoning."
Chen Ji smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the third prince committed suicide or was killed by someone. What do important people believe in? Zhou Tao, if it were you, what would you believe?"
Zhou Tao said without hesitation: "The third prince was killed by today's son."
Chen Jishou said seriously: "Yes, how can such an emperor convince the public? He cannot open up a wide range of words. He can't wait to kill his brother as soon as he ascended the throne. What's the difference between Xia Jie and Shang Zhou?"
Zhou Tao said: "Sir, I mean..."
Chen Ji still said lightly: "It doesn't matter. Our Jinyi Weekly has also been searched? Have you arranged it in advance?"
Zhou Tao said: "It was arranged. Before the palace started, everyone from top to bottom retreated without leaving any trace."
Chen Ji's eyes flashed with a cold look, and he said, "Tell them that it's time for them to do something. Without a publication, he hid in the courtyard to type, and the printing equipment and other households in the inner city were designed to do it. This Jinyi Weekly needs to be run. I want this Bianjing to have Jinyi Weekly on the streets and alleys tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will rewrite the third prince and write more allusions of Qin II and Emperor Yang of Sui."
Zhou Tao clasped his fists and said, "I understand it in a humble way."
Chen Jicai smiled and said, "Wubei Academy will be there to make a living. Without the edict of the auxiliary king, they will always be the emperor's personal teachers. Whether they are loyal to the late emperor or the new emperor depends on themselves."

In the early morning of the second son, the frightened and restless people woke up from their dreams and immediately found that the whole of Bianjing was in the same shape. Someone opened the door on the streets and alleys and saw a weekly magazine on the ground. The paper quality of this weekly magazine was a bit inferior, but the handwriting was clear. Not only that, even many articles were posted on many walls, and many people had already read it.
Jingzhao Mansion was also shocked. He didn't expect that the criticism that had finally suppressed it made a comeback overnight, so he quickly sent a businessman to tear off all the banned articles on the wall.
But it was too late, and there was another round of discussion among the people. How could it be so easy to control people's mouths and hearts? When the incident reached Li Bangyan's residence, Li Bangyan couldn't help but have a cold war. All of this seemed to be premeditated. He quickly ordered his servants: "Jinyi Weekly! Go quickly and show me all the recent issues of Jinyi Weekly."
After only one cup of tea, a chief found him Jinyi Weekly. The chief said: "This Jinyi Weekly was recently launched and has little reputation, but it is better because of its low price. Other weekly magazines are forty texts. Jinyi Weekly only has ten texts. From the start of the publication to the confiscation, there are roughly three issues."
Li Bangyan had a pale face. While listening to the main storytelling, he picked up the weekly magazine to read it. The contents inside were all related to the third prince. He couldn't help but take a cold breath and said, "I understand."
This weekly magazine was originally used to induce the killing of the third prince. If it were not for this weekly magazine, the third prince might still have a glimmer of hope. However, when the new emperor saw this weekly magazine, he almost praised the third prince as the incarnation of sages in the article, and then contacted the allusions of various weekly magazines. With Zhao Huan's long-standing nature, it would be inevitable to attack the third prince.
In other words, Zhao Heng was the one who killed the Three Emperors and Li Bangyan, but the real mastermind behind it was Jinyi Weekly, but who was behind Jinyi Weekly?
Li Bangyan took a long breath and finally realized that there was a bigger opponent hidden in Bianjing. This person must be Shen Ao's confidant, just like a chess player, his behavior affects the overall situation.
This man killed the third prince with Zhao Heng's hand, but now he used the third prince's death to make a fuss, pointing directly at the new king, his words were extremely intense. Is this man doing this?
Perhaps in the past, Li Bangyan thought that what Shen Ao wanted to do was nothing more than support the third prince, but now the purpose of the person behind this made Li Bangyan understand that everything was not as simple as he imagined. He forced the new king to kill the third prince and then used this to point the finger at the new king. They were trying to usurp the throne...
Li Bangyan fought a cold war, and with his wisdom, he was played with by this person and applauded. He immediately felt a sense of fear in his heart. He couldn't help but murmur: "What is the goal...it's very big... what should I do?"
Li Bangyan didn't realize that the main person was still standing next to him, his eyes flashed with panic, and then sighed again.
He had no choice. Is there a king's land in the world? Where can he escape? His hatred with the King of Regent cannot be resolved by resolving it. Once the King of Regent enters the capital, he must die. Since that is the case, he can only give it a try.
Li Bangyan calmed down and raised his eyes to find that the head was looking at him in confusion. Li Bangyan's face immediately showed displeasure and said angrily: "Get out and tell the doorman, and I will enter the palace now."
Sitting in the sedan chair, Li Bangyan's thoughts came one after another. What should I do and how to deal with it? People's hearts have turned to Shen Ao. If we want to turn the tide, people's hearts cannot move for the time being.
Li Bangyan closed his eyes and thought hard. Finally, he gritted his teeth, patted his knee with his hand, and murmured: "Then let's destroy the left and right arm of Shen."
When he arrived at the palace, Zhao Huan had just adapted to the feeling of the new emperor in the warm room. Early this morning, he originally wanted to go to Jingtai Palace to greet him as usual, but then he suddenly realized that he had become the emperor now. The old woman was not close to him, so why did she have anything to do with her? He simply stopped going there. After reading the memorials in this warm room, he felt drowsy. At this time, someone outside reported: "Mr. Li Bangyan and Li asked for a meeting."
"Call in."
Li Bangyan entered the warm pavilion and bowed, without mentioning the matter of Jinyi Weekly. Zhao Heng first laughed and said, "My brother committed suicide because of his crime?"
Li Bangyan said: "Yes."
Zhao Heng then sighed and said, "I and King Jia are brothers. I really didn't expect that he did this. But since he was a brother or a great sin, can't I tolerate him? But why should I commit suicide for fear of the crime? I passed a message to my subordinates and asked him to draft an imperial edict, and grant the legitimate son of King Jia to inherit the title of king and grant the king's ritual to be buried with a generous burial."
Li Bangyan said: "Your Majesty is kind. If King Jia knows you, you will definitely be grateful."
Zhao Huan smiled faintly, but he really felt kind, and turned to him: "Have you investigated the weekly magazine?"
Li Bangyan said: "All have been investigated. The empress entered the palace and asked His Majesty to decide on the martial arts school."
Zhao Heng's eyes sternly and said, "The decree to sack the Martial Preparation School has been drafted and can be sent out at any time."
Li Bangyan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the Martial Arts School is the emperor's personal teacher, and it should not be underestimated. If it is against the order, what should I do?"
Zhao Huan's eyes were faint, and a trace of fear flashed in his pupils. Everyone knows that the combat power of this martial arts school should not be underestimated. Once it is forced to rebel, it is not fun. However, in the martial arts school, Zhao Huan was like a thorn in his throat. Shen Ao's period of entry into the capital is getting closer and closer. If he does not withdraw, it will inevitably cause an uproar.
Zhao Heng said angrily: "They dare!"
Li Bangyan quietly looked at Zhao Huan with contempt and said, "Why don't you dare? So I think that if you want to cut off the military preparatory school, you must use only one person."
Zhao Heng looked at Li Bangyan and said, "You said."
Li Bangyan said: "The Duke of Ruiguo will eat it."
Zhao Huan was confused. Duke Ruiguo was the one who knew him the most well. He was the brother of the Crown Princess and was also a relative of him. He used to work in the forefront of the palace. After Zhao Huan supervised the country, he ordered him to go to the Privy Council, which was considered a promotion. However, Zhao Huan also knew in his heart that Duke Ruiguo did not have much ability. How could he rely on him for such a big thing as abolishing the Martial Preparation Academy?
Li Bangyan smiled and said, "Please issue an order immediately, and order Duke Ruiguo to be the commander of the Ma Jun Office to take over the Ma Jun Office. Then, Duke Ruiguo will take the Ma Jun Office to the Wubei Academy to issue an order. If the Wubei Academy dares to act rashly, he can immediately order the Ma Jun Office to suppress it."
Zhao Huan's eyes lit up. Today, he realized Li Bangyan's cleverness. The Ma Junshi was Shen Ao's man, but he was also an imperial guard. Although Shen Ao had a great influence on the Ma Junshi, the Ma Junshi still had to obediently be loyal to the emperor. Duke Ruiguo was Zhao Huan's confidant. Who dared to raise criticism? At that time, he would take over the Ma Junshi and put him in with a bunch of confidants and then use it to deal with the Martial Arts School. Even if the Martial Arts School resisted, the Ma Junshi would naturally let them bite the dog. But if the Martial Arts School obeyed, the Ma Junshi would become the culprit of the Martial Arts School, and of course he was devoted to Zhao Huan.
The three major imperial guards have the strongest combat power. Once the Martial Arts School is abolished, Zhao Huan will have an absolute advantage in the entire Bianjing. As long as Shen Ao dares to cause trouble, Zhao Huan will give him an order and will not be buried.
Zhao Huan cheered up and looked at Li Bangyan deeply, with expectations in his eyes, and said, "Okay, I will issue an order to entrust Duke Ruiguo as the commander of the Ma Army. Li Aiqing will work together to do this with Duke Ruiguo. I will not forget your benefits."
A trace of coldness flashed in Li Bangyan's eyes, but he was thinking in his heart, since you have fought for the people's hearts, then we will seize the military power. No matter how powerful the people behind Jinyi Weekly are, what kind of waves can they make?
Li Bangyan bowed to Zhao Heng in fear and fear, saying, "If it weren't for Your Majesty's protection, how could I be today? I will never dare to take credit for it."
