Chapter 513
(Thanks to the King of Heaven for writing a lifelong promise, Jishi Fans's support, thank you!)
"Your Majesty the Emperor has already been Long Yubin Tian." Yu Wenhua and the first sentence that walked into the hall were so wet that surprised Zhang Heng and the other two. "Jing Wang Yang Hong colluded with the Zuo Yiwei General Yuanshou to plot against rebellion. Although we found out the conspiracy and risked our lives to suppress the rebellion, His Majesty was still killed by Yuan Min, the son of Yuanshou."
Zhang Heng stared at Yu Wenhua and seemed to be trying to eat people. If he hadn't seen Yang Qing before, he might have believed him, at least he would have believed him three times. But now, he didn't believe any of the words that Yu Wenhua and his mouth were spitting out. He endured the anger in his heart and let out a long sigh, "King Jing and Yuanshou are in trouble? Didn't we leave three imperial guard camps with nearly 10,000 elite troops stationed in Jiangling City to guard the palace to protect His Majesty? How could Yuanmin kill the lord? Also, what's going on in Jiangling now?"
"Yuanmin rebels colluded with him to buy several guards in the palace, and took advantage of the chaos outside the palace and hanged His Majesty with silk scarves." Yu Wenhe tried his best to remain calm, "We discovered the attempt of King Jing, closed the city gate in time, and then fought with the rebels in the city, killing Yang Hong, Yuanshou, Yuanmin and other rebels. Then my father spread the rebels with three heads, and announced that the rest would go away and pacify the troops of Jingzhou outside the city. At present, Jiangling City has been pacified, and only Yang Hong's son Yang Qing was escaped. We estimate that he has defected to Chang'an." If possible, Yu Wen and ten thousand people who are unwilling to come to this trip∽Chang∽Feng∽Wen∽Study, ww⌒
≯↖t, he was worried that Zhang Heng and others would not believe their lies at all. If Zhang Heng and others insisted on pursuing them and being loyal to the emperor, then he would die in the burial place. But his father calmly told him. Now that is the only thing, he also believed that Zhang Heng and the other two knew how to choose. The Jiangling turmoil was not known. Afterwards, Sima Dekan and Yang Wei and others expressed their intention to recommend his father to lead the people. The father had a high position and was of great power. The key was that only when his father came out could he be qualified to talk to Zhang Heng and the other two. Zhang Heng and the other two might consider it carefully.
Although this is a clumsy lie, if Zhang Heng and the other two were smart, they would not have revealed it. This is what his father said to him before he set out. Letting him come here in person was also to show his sincerity.
Guo Yan picked up the wine glass and drank the glass full of wine, his eyes turned red. "Is it your father who personally directed the quelling of the Jiangling turmoil?"
"Yes, if it weren't for the critical moment, a loyal and righteous man risked his life to report Yang Hong's conspiracy to rebel, we would not be able to stop it in time. If my father had not come forward, he would not have mobilized the various camps of the Jianghuai Army in Jiangling City. Unfortunately, although we finally stopped the Jingzhou soldiers from entering the city and killed Yang Hongyuanshou and other rebels who wanted to cooperate in the city, he finally missed a Yuanmin. Unexpectedly, this thief was so rampant that he actually entered the palace alone and colluded with His Majesty's eunuch to kill the king." In fact, this rebellion was simply the plan of some middle-level officers in the Yangzhou army. The Jingzhou soldiers had never thought of rebelling at all. Yang Hong was even more wary when they besieged the Jingwang Mansion. The emperor died at their hands. He was led by Zhao Xingshu into the bedroom and was hanged directly with the emperor's belt.
The turmoil began. His father was sent to "protect" in the mansion and could not communicate with the outside world at all. Until the matter was settled, Yu Wen and Sima Dekan and others brought Yang Hong, Yuanshou and the head of Yuan Min, the "regretacist" Yuan Min, to meet Yu Wen Shu. His father understood the causes and consequences of the entire turmoil at a glance. He just sighed a long time, and his father began to propose that he must immediately send someone to contact the 100,000 Huainan troops outside, and must explain the power to them, and then surrender to Luoyang with the land of Jingxiang. His father's attitude afterwards made Yu Wen and he felt that his father was not ignorant of their plans, but more like his father knew everything long ago, but he did not interfere. It seemed that his father had been waiting for this result.
"The regicide is another regicide. Is there any loyalty and righteousness in this world?" Duan Da roared, "Your father sent you here, what else should I tell us."
"My father asked me to come down. One is to spread the incident in Jiangling City, and the other is that Dai father asked the Duke to lead his troops back to Jiangling immediately. Jiangling City is now calm on the surface, but there are undercurrents below. Tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops are not honest. Many generals are already planning to rebel and return to Chang'an. Jiangling Huainan army has a young man. He must ask the Duke to lead his troops back to stabilize the situation."
Guo Yan snorted coldly, "Stable the situation? The emperor is dead, the prince is dead, and His Majesty has the only son left, but he is in Yang Xiu's hands. What situation can you say, what situation can you stabilize and what situation can you say."
"Your Majesty is more than Yang Ming, one son." Yu Wenhua and lowered their voices, "Everyone knows that the crown prince in Luoyang was once made the crown prince by Your Majesty. In this way, Prince Yang Zhao died first, and Your Majesty Bintian, my father and everyone in Jiangling City agreed that we should be loyal to the crown prince Yang Lin, and Empress Xiao also said that this is what he meant."
"Empress Xiao means that too?" Guo Yan almost couldn't help laughing. Of course, the three here knew that Yang Lin was actually Yang Guang's illegitimate son. Even now the news has gradually spread, but most outsiders think that this is just a rumor. But even if they are informed, how could Empress Xiao be willing to let them surrender to Yang Lin? Empress Xiao's only son is in Chang'an now, and she should let them surrender to Chang'an in exchange for her son's life.
Duan Da said unceremoniously: "Is the queen still alive?"
Yu Wenhe was angry after being exposed on the spot, but he still answered honestly, "When Yuanmin killed the lord, the queen was there. His Majesty asked the traitor not to hurt the queen, so the rebellion did not hurt the queen."
"If you cut the grass and don't eradicate the roots, there will be endless troubles." Zhang Heng took a sip of wine, "Since you have been doing the first day of the New Year, don't be afraid of doing the eleventh year."
Yu Wenghe tried his best to believe what he had just heard, "You mean to get rid of the queen?"
"Yuan Min killed the lord and even plotted to murder the queen." Zhang Heng said in a low voice, "How could the rebellion who even the emperor dared to kill him be let go of the queen?"
The emperor died, which was enough to change everything. Three dragons competed for the throne, and now Yang Guang was eliminated first, and the rest. They just chose one of two. They almost had no hesitation. They knew who to choose, just like Yuwen Shu. Since they wanted to vote for Yang Lin, they could not take Queen Xiao to vote. No matter what, they already knew that Queen Xiao was present when the emperor died. Even if Yuan Min killed the lord too in detail, it could not be revealed, let alone Queen Xiao. Besides, Queen Xiao was not Yang Lin's biological mother, and their relationship was not even good, let alone Queen Xiao had a son. The Jianghuai army just supported Jingxiang and did not need to bring a hidden danger. Doing things requires a cleaner. That way, the new monarch would like it.
"My Lords, can you lead your army back to Jiangling immediately?"
"We will go back, but not all. Since we want to surrender to Luoyang, we must defend Jingxiang and attach Jingxiang together. And I believe that when Yang Xiu from Chang'an learned that His Majesty was killed, he will definitely send people to recruit surrender immediately. Regardless of whether we are willing to be recruited, he will immediately lead troops out of the pass to compete for Jingxiang. General Yuwen. We will discuss carefully later and decide who will take some of the troops back first. But more troops must continue to stay here, and we must hurry up and arrange them to deal with Yang Xiu's arrival. We cannot wait for Yang Xiu to defeat us and escape to Luoyang empty-handed."
Jingxiang area is also called Shannan area. Under the subdivision, it can be divided into Shannan East and Shannan West, that is, Shandong and Shanxi. Shannan East refers to the north of the Yangtze River and southwest of Henan. Shannan West is divided from Shannan, referring to the Ba and Han areas. Shannan area is extremely important for the court that established Guanzhong. Shannan and Jiannan are Jingxiang and Shuhan are extremely important to Guanzhong. Its importance is to make Guanzhong Bashu and Jingxiang a whole, protecting the security of the southwest of Guanzhong. At the same time, the Shuzhong Plain and Jianghan Plain are also important grain-producing areas, providing food tax guarantees for Guanzhong. In the ancient Qin Dynasty, it was precisely because of the annexation of Shu that it was able to rise and eventually unify the world. Yang Xiu was in Guanzhong. If there was no Shuzhong, there would be no room for retreat. Without Jingxiang, he would be able to die in a corner.
Therefore, Zhang Heng could predict that Yang Xiu must have been preparing for a long time. He was going to fight a big battle with the Jianghuai Army. Now that Yang Guang was suddenly killed, and with such news, how could Yang Xiu not immediately defend and attack and come to seize Jingxiang? Although the core of the Jingxiang area is Jiangling, the most important place for military strategists to fight is Xiangyang, the Han River in the north, and Jingmen between Xiangyang and Jiangling. Xiangyang guards the Han River, Jiangling guards the river, and these two points control the necessary path for the upstream Guanzhong Army and Bashu Army to move south and eastward. If these two strategic points are held, you can control Jingxiang. If the entire army retreats back to Jiangling, then draw a land as a prison, and at most a city in Jiangling is guarded.
Zhang Heng shouted outside and a guard came in.
"Select the guests from afar. After dinner, General Yuwen has to continue rushing back."
The wine is wine, with a fishy red color, with stewed meat. Yu Wenhe recognized it as stewed horse meat at a glance. This may be the most eaten dish on the battlefield. He was not interested in this dish. Instead, a few grilled fish were well made, roasted, fresh and crispy. For Yu Wenhe, who had to worry about horses along the way, finally let go of the burden in his heart and had a delicious meal. This was indeed what he needed urgently now, and he started to eat it with gratitude.
"Don't you eat horse meat?"
"It's hard to eat." Yu Wenhe replied that during the days when he was guarding Huaian City, although there was no shortage of food in the city, Qu Tutong issued strict orders to save food and prepare for long-term defense. Therefore, after every war, people would be sent out to rob the dead and injured horses in the pile of corpses on the city walls to dismember the dead and injured horses, and then stew them in a big pot. During that time, this was eaten every day. Qu Tutong and Fang Xuanling also specifically required that all officials should treat them equally and let everyone take them to eat horse meat. The horse meat was not added with any seasonings, nor was it carefully stewed, but stewed in a pot. He would never want to mention the word horse meat again.
"These horses are really pitiful. They have to carry knights on their backs, run and charge in battle. Once injured, they are abandoned immediately. Even if they are abandoned, they will still be slaughtered and peeled and eaten." Zhang Heng smiled, "In fact, we are the same. They claim to be excellent, but they are just selected as mounts. Once they are incurable, they will be abandoned, peeled and peeled and peeled and stewed meat and cooked soup."
Yu Wenghe put down the grilled fish in his hand and carefully thought about the profound meaning of his words.
"I remember General Yuwen and the Crown Prince had sworn brothers?"
"No, the Crown Prince has ever been sworn with Sima Dekan and Yang Wei, but has never been sworn with me."
"What a pity. If the general had been worshipped by the crown prince, then his future would be unlimited."
That's right, Yuwen Jiji thought in his heart that he was the second group to go to Huaihuang and missed the opportunity to become sworn brothers with Yang Lin. However, at that time, he did not look down on Yang Lin, but just regarded him as a horse thief, a horse thief who was born as a illegitimate son of King Jin. He never thought that after a short time, the illegitimate son had reached the point where he was today, and it was so much that everyone in the world had to look up to him. If he had lowered his attitude at that time, perhaps the Luoyang court would have already had his own place, so there would be no need to be so anxious now.
"Have you heard that Yang Zhao's fiancée, Princess Lintao County, Princess of Princess Guangping's family, was rumored to have disappeared in Luoyang shortly after she got married. There were rumors that the free-spirited county princess fell in love with someone at first sight and then elopement. Now it seems that this rumor is true, but the one she ran with would definitely shock countless people. Not long ago, the county princess appeared in Luoyang and was with the crown prince Yang Lin. There was even news that she had been with the crown prince for a long time." Duan Da told a little news.
Yu Wenhua and his mouth were wide open, and he said to himself. When King Yang Guang of Jin hit it off at first sight, he became pregnant outside marriage. In the end, Yuan married Yang Guang's elder brother, Yang Yong, and finally gave birth to Yang Lin, an extramarital son with Yang Guang. Many years later, Yang Lin became a horse thief and became the prince's grandson, and then he kidnapped his half-brother Yang Zhao's fiancée. This was simply too messy. I just don't know if this unrestrained Yu Wen Yubo and Yang Lin had such an affair with Yang Zhao before. If Yu Wen Yubo had had Yang Zhao, then followed Yang Lin, and even he became pregnant with Yang Lin, then who would have a child in the future? Wouldn't it be another grudge between Yang Guang and Yang Yong? Yu Wenhua thought farther and farther away, and even wanted to high-five to praise the story's twists and turns, ups and downs, and it was so exciting.
"Don't say that." Zhang Heng interrupted Duan Da's words full of disrespect for their future monarch, and turned to Yu Wenhua and said, "After you have dinner, you will go back to Jiangling immediately and tell your father that we will support him, and later there will be troops returning to Jiangling. The remaining army will have a part of the army stationed in Jingmen, and a department will immediately go north to Xiangyang, arrange defenses, and guard the Han River to prevent Yang Xiu from leaving the pass to seize Jingxiang. Tell your father that you should contact the crown prince as soon as possible, and remember to kill the roots." (To be continued...)
