From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 228

The atmosphere in the palace and the throne room was solemn and murderous.

Empress Zhaojing looked cold and her voice was filled with murderous intent: "Qinshui is back. She was stabbed in the abdomen and almost lost her life."

"According to the mountain search, more than 30 bodies were found. Haha, there is such a large-scale killer organization in Shenjing. Qiu Ying, how did you, the commander of the Jinyiwei, do it?"

Qiu Ying knelt down quickly and whispered: "It is my fault. Your Majesty, please punish me."

Empress Zhaojing said: "Princess Qinshui is the daughter of the previous emperor and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If she really didn't come back, how would you explain it? I see that you have been getting worse recently. I have been slack. Do you want to rest at home for a few years? "

Qiu Ying's face was pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, please give me a chance to redeem myself and make meritorious contributions. As the year is coming to an end, I will wipe out all the killer organizations in Shenjing and its surrounding areas!"

Empress Zhao Jing said in a deep voice, "This is what you said. I didn't force you. If you can't do it, leave the opportunity to others. After all, you are almost fifty years old."

"Yes, I know."

He clenched his fist in his sleeve. The Jinyiwei was well-informed. He knew who was behind this.

But that person was too high-ranking, so he could only suffer in silence and didn't dare to make things clear.

Empress Zhaojing continued: "Speaking of this, it is indeed the end of the year, and the Ministry of Rites needs to prepare. The New Year's Day Heavenly Sacrifice is particularly important and cannot be delayed."

"All ministers and officials must participate and must not be absent."

"Now our Great Jin is facing many difficulties. We need the blessing of our ancestors and the eyes of God to have a chance to turn things around."

All civil and military officials immediately agreed.

Until then, Empress Zhaojing said: "If there is something, please report it. If not, I will leave the court."

Yang Guozhong stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Juyongguan reported that a big fire broke out in Yanshan Mountain and has spread to two mountaintops. The dry winter has made the fire more fierce. There is no power over there. Please ask the Wucheng Bingmasi for water dragon support."

Empress Zhaojing said: "It's the New Year and it's a fire. I'm afraid it's caused by burning paper for worship. Order the Wucheng Bingmasi to rush to Yanshan Mountain to put out the fire. The fire must be put out before the New Year's Day sacrifice to the sky, so as not to disturb the ancestors."

"Yes."

Yang Guozhong retreated.

"Retreat."

Empress Zhaojing waved her hand, and after leaving the Golden Palace, the ministers slowly retreated.

…

In the Prince Jing's Mansion, Chen De fiddled with the two walnuts in his hand, frowning and wondering, "Did Yang Guozhong really say that?"

Chen Ang whispered, "It's true, father, what do you think this old fox means? On the one hand, he said he couldn't help, and on the other hand, he brought the news from Yanshan and helped us transfer the Wucheng Bingma Division."

The King of Jing was silent for a moment before sneering, "These cabinet ministers are all smart people. This is undoubtedly just sitting on the fence."

"If we succeed, his transfer of the Wucheng Bingma Division is just a token of his loyalty."

"If we lose, this will not do him any harm. After all, the fire in Yanshan is real and cannot be faked."

Chen Ang thought for a while before saying, "What should we do now? We can't get the support of the ministers. I'm afraid we'll be short of breath!"

The King of Jing said indifferently, "It's already a relatively optimistic situation that the ministers and officials can remain neutral. By then, under the general trend, these fence-sitters will Naturally, they are not opponents. The opponents are mainly the Imperial Guards, Jinyiwei and the Inner Court. "

Chen Ang laughed and said, "How many people are there? There are only a little over 10,000 in total. How can they be opponents of the five military camps?"

King Jing said, "There are nine gates in the capital, and there are 10,000 garrisons, a total of more than 20,000 people, all of whom are the elite of the elite."

Chen Ang said, "Father has been preparing for so many years, he must have a way."

King Jing smiled faintly and said, "There are so many people in the world. The most difficult thing to deal with is not the soldiers, but the people. "

"Soldiers can be killed, who dares to kill the people? Those who kill soldiers are heroes, and those who kill the people are butchers."

"Heroes can become emperors and compete for the world, and civil officials will support them. But those pedantic officials who are well-read will not support butchers."

"Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing, Shandong, Shandong, the pace of those refugee ghosts is indeed a little slow."

...

In the East City Military Affairs Office, the Secretary's Building, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Daguang was already irritable, and when he heard the knock on the door, he started to curse: "Knock, knock, knock on your mother's chest, don't bother me!"

"Commander-in-chief, the Ministry of War has issued an order to put out the fire in Yanshan."

Hearing this, Liu Daguang stood up angrily and shouted: "Put out the fire! It's almost the New Year, and you still want to take me to Yanshan. You're really restless, aren't you!"

"Just send two hundred people, and let the clerks lead them. I don't bother to take care of these trivial matters!"

There was no movement outside the house, and Liu Daguang sat downCome, another sigh.

Boss Zhou is dead. Alas, he just gave us the money a few days ago, but he lost contact because of saving the princess.

For so many years, the Five City Army and Horse Division has been a group of dogs, licking whatever is dirty.

Only Boss Zhou is ambitious and capable, able to rectify the capital, make money, and be praised by the people. The other four city army and horses also share the money and benefit from it.

Life is getting better and better, but Boss Zhou is gone again.

This thief God is really blind. My Boss Zhou is such a good person, so young, why did he let him die!

"Bang bang bang!"

The knock on the door sounded again.

Liu Daguang was furious and shouted directly: "What's the matter again! Do you want to be beaten?"

"Commander, there is a letter for you, a woman sent it."

Liu Daguang shouted: "What woman? I don't know her."

"It is said that it was sent by the Inner Court."

Liu Daguang's figure was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Bring it here!"

He took the letter and looked at it. It was written on it: "Brother Liu, Yanshan is on fire and the heat wave is overwhelming. Please take all the brothers in the department and go for a walk."

"Brother Zhou Yuan is trapped in Yanshan and urgently needs your rescue."

"This is a serious matter. Don't delay. Bring the water dragon weapon and come as soon as possible."

"Brother has written letters to other brothers, including the North City Bingma Division, which has also sent out all the soldiers. My Five City Bingma Division has gathered There were more than 10,000 soldiers. "Liu Daguang's hands were shaking, and then shouted sharply, excitedly:" My boss is still alive! " Let's go all, how many people are left! "" You and his mother! "Liu Daguang shouted in a slap, and said," My boss said that the soldiers were doing everything. The fastest speed rectified people. About one hour later, more than 10,000 soldiers of the five cities rushed out of Shenjing in batches and went north to north. The water dragon wheels rolled, the war horses neighed, and the mighty soldiers stepped on the solid ground with the momentum of going to war.
