"Lost?" The other three looked at each other in dismay when they heard the words, and after they reacted, they showed horror. If the Tiger Talisman of the Three Armies was lost long ago, how could it fall into the hands of the Marquis of Chengan
At that time, the three-army tiger talisman was in the hands of Marshal Ban. Later, Marshal Ban was injured in the frontier. After returning to the capital, he disarmed and became a leisurely prince. Later, when Emperor Yunqing ascended the throne, there was no more war in the frontier. .
They only thought that His Majesty was afraid of the current military generals, so they did not hand over the Tiger Talisman of the Three Armies to anyone. They never thought that His Majesty did not have the Tiger Talisman in his hand, which was really surprising.
"Could it be that the tiger talisman was originally in the hands of Marshal Ban?" Yao Peiji whispered, "It was a sudden thing that Marshal Ban was injured back then. If he hadn't handed over the tiger talisman, he would have told His Majesty that the tiger talisman had been taken away by someone. …”
The late emperor disliked His Majesty and preferred King Hui. Maybe His Majesty would really believe what Marshal Ban said. No wonder His Majesty was able to endure King Hui for so many years, probably because he was worried that King Hui would suddenly rebel. After the death of King Hui and his wife, His Majesty kept the children of King Hui and his wife in the palace. One was to promote his kindness, and the other was to control these two people and prevent them from messing around.
Things that were incomprehensible in the past, after the appearance of this tiger talisman, all the things that were incomprehensible suddenly became clear.
The Ban family has been loyal for generations, why did Marshal Ban tell such a big lie
And these three-army tiger talismans were given to the Marquis of Chengan by Ban County Master
"I know," Zhao Weishen was Marshal Ban's former subordinate, thinking of the once majestic marshal, his voice was a little hoarse: "The marshal was not injured by the enemy, but was attacked by his own people. Finally, the late emperor found out that a certain general was jealous. Doing such a thing. To avoid disturbing the morale of the army, this general was executed in secret, and not even his family was implicated."
"Not long after, the late emperor became seriously ill," Zhao Weishen recalled the past, and calmly narrated the lives, deaths and blood of countless people. As the crown prince, it is logical to ascend the throne and become the emperor of the Daye Dynasty."
Zhao Weishen didn't want to mention how many conspiracies and tricks were involved in this, and the other adults knew it too.
"Prince Prince and Prince Ning have no ability to rule the world, if they become the Marquis of An..." Yao Peiji admired Rong Xia's talent very much, so when he spoke, it was inevitable that he would be a little biased. Fortunately, he still has reason, knowing that if he continues to say this, he will be suspected of rebelling.
"I know what you mean," Zhao Weishen smiled. "When I learn the arts of literature and martial arts, don't I just want to be loyal to the court and do two practical things for the common people? It's good to let things take their course. For the world."
In the early years, he had seen all the battles in the DPRK, and he was really not a particularly loyal minister. Rather than saying that he was loyal to the Daye Dynasty, it would be better to say that he was more loyal to the people under the rule of the Daye.
Maybe God really had eyes. When the peach blossoms were all in full bloom in March, suddenly the suburbs of the capital shook for a while, revealing a strange stone. This stone had a strange posture, like a blue bird rising into the sky. Legend has it that the blue bird is the Annunciation bird beside the Queen Mother, and its appearance will bring news that will change the world.
The patrols rushed over quickly, but after seeing the words engraved on the stone, their expressions changed.
"The Jiang family is not benevolent, the world is in chaos, there is a benevolent ruler in troubled times, and the people are saved from water and fire..."
After a soldier who had read books for several years read out these short dozen or so words, his whole body trembled like a sieve. His upper and lower teeth slammed together and made a rattling sound. He actually felt that the stone was extremely majestic. Don't dare to look down.
"Nonsense, this is just a plot of the rebels," the patrol captain pointed at the boulder, "Why don't you quickly erase the words on it?!"
"Yes!" A soldier stepped forward with a knife, but strangely, he just walked a few steps, and suddenly fell to the ground with a crooked mouth and nose. The remaining patrolmen did not dare to step forward. Someone hurriedly dragged the twitching soldier back and carried him to the city to find a doctor. They said that he was frightened by the evil wind.
Frightened
The patrolmen who witnessed the strange stone were even more suspicious, and no one asked him what he saw until the soldier woke up.
"I-I saw a dragon hovering on a stone, his eyes were like lanterns." Before the soldier could finish speaking, he held his head and shouted, with no reason at all.
One day later, the officials of Qintianjian went to see the soldier again, but he was already mad, and he was talking in a different way. One time he said there was a bird, another time he said there was a ghost, and he was crazy and didn't say a word.
The news about this strange stone had already spread throughout the capital within a day, and it is said that several people who saw this huge stone went crazy. The rumors spread more and more, that the Jiang Dynasty was about to perish, that His Majesty was not benevolent, causing chaos in the world, and that the destined prince of benevolence and righteousness had appeared, waiting to replace the Jiang Dynasty one day.
The rumor spread to the end, and it became that if the Jiang Dynasty continued to unify the world, there would be disasters and disasters for the people, and only the prince of benevolence and righteousness was the Son of Heaven ordained.
Jiang Luo was furious, and invited several famous monks to go beside the boulder to do the trick, but the news has already spread, even if the so-called expert is invited to deal with it, what's the use
"Abbot Yun, what do you think is on this stone?" A thin old man looked at Abbot Yun with a half-smile.
Abbot Yun recited the Buddha: "There are people on this."
Lao Dao laughed: "Whether it's a human heart or a miracle, Lao Dao is just an outsider, and he didn't want to intervene in this matter, but it's a pity that the emperor threatened the life of the younger generation, and the old Dao had to obey."
Abbot Yun's very kind eyes showed a smile: "The Taoist priest is a real master."
The old Taoist sighed inexplicably and made a gesture of invitation: "Abbot Yun, please."
This method of pretending to be a ghost is still used by some monks who are walking around. It happened that he and Dao Master Yun had the honor to discuss the Zen scriptures two days ago, and he made a choice today. Although he is an outsider, he is also a person. Even if he can't save the people, at least he is not willing to help Zhou.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, the words on the boulder finally disappeared, but the two most famous monks in the capital vomited blood and fainted. The courtiers, who were still skeptical about this matter, were convinced of the words on the boulder after seeing the fate of the two.
It's just that they didn't dare to show their thoughts. When Jiang Luo wanted to send troops to stop the rebels, no one in the court dared to stand up and lead the troops voluntarily.
They dare to make trouble with people, but how many people are willing to make trouble with heaven? Even Ning Chen is afraid of God's punishment.
Jiang Luo was so angry that he killed a few more people, and when he saw how timid these people were, he became angry.
After returning to the palace, Jiang Luo attacked several little eunuchs, and still felt uneasy.
"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that Shi Jin may be of some use."
"What's the use of him," Jiang Luo kicked the talking eunuch to the ground, "Last time you said that Rong Xia was a good candidate, what was the result?!"
"Slave is guilty." The little eunuch kowtowed repeatedly, not daring to say more.
"You are indeed guilty," Jiang Luo said bitterly, "If I had known this, I should have killed Rong Xia earlier, instead of letting him lead the troops out of the city."
"Who would have guessed that he would not care about the family of County Master Fule at all," the little eunuch rolled his eyes, "Maybe County Lord Fule hates him in his heart at the moment, why don't we find a way to contact Fule? Princess, let her be our undercover agent?"
"That woman Ban Hua has only been eating, drinking and having fun since she was a child. What can a pig brain like her do?" Jiang Luo subconsciously demeaned Ban Hua, "What can she do to help me and hold me back?"
The little eunuch was silent for a moment: "Your Majesty, although Princess Fule has a more straightforward personality, she is a woman."
"What can a woman do?"
"When women hate a man, they can do anything," the little eunuch respectfully knocked on the ground and touched his forehead, "Why don't you try it?"
"No matter how much a woman hates a man, it's nothing but a man's attachment. What can you do?" Jiang Luo was amused by the eunuch's absurd remarks, "What kind of woman do you know as a castr, go out and kneel at the door for two hours. ."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The eunuch retreated according to his words.
In the military tent, Rong Xia was looking at the map with several subordinates.
Zhao Zhong saw that Rong Xia's face was haggard, and after the military consultation was over, he smiled and said, "My lord, please take a rest."
"How can I rest in peace? If I delay for one more day, the people will suffer one more day," Rong Xia pinched her forehead.
"It is an honor for my subordinates to be able to serve the master." The only thing Zhao Zhong didn't expect was that the fiancée of his younger brother who died young was actually married to his master. Although he served as the governor of Xuezhou, he had also heard some rumors about Fule County Lord.
The fiancé would rather run away with the Fengchen woman than be with her.
Gorgeous-looking, Kefu, the first fiancé died at a young age, she must be Kefu.
His mother had a very good relationship with Aunt Yin, and even the entire Zhao family had a good relationship with the Ban family. The Zhao family never believed the rumors about Kefu outside. His younger brother did not die on the character of Fule County Master, but in the hands of King Ning.
Back then, when the mother brought the younger brother into the palace, who knew that the second prince actually knocked the younger brother, who was only three or four years old, into the water. The younger brother was cold and frightened. After he came back, he couldn't bear the illness. In the end, the medicine stone was useless, and he was tortured by the illness and left.
Later, after His Majesty gave them a moderate title to the Zhao family, he suppressed this matter. In the eyes of the royal family, the pain of their Zhao family's loss of their son was nothing more than a small title.
I only pity the Fule County Master, who is two months younger than his younger brother. He doesn't know anything, but because of this, he bears the name of Kefu and has been talked about in the capital for so many years.
It has been two or three days since he and the lord met in Zhongzhou. Unfortunately, he has never been able to see the Fule County Lord. He is a big man who is not easy to ask the whereabouts of the lord and wife, so he wants to apologize to the Fule County Lord. , could not find a suitable opportunity.
Rong Xia patted Zhao Zhong on the shoulder, "Zi Zhong, I have already sent your family out of the city, so don't worry about this."
"Thank you, my lord!" Zhao Zhong excitedly gave Rong Xia a big gift.
"Don't say such polite words to your own people," Rong Xia took a sip of tea to refresh herself, "Ling Zheng is also in the military camp with you now?"
"Yes, Zhuo Jing and the two dogs are in the army with their subordinates."
"If Lingzheng and Linglang are bored, you can come to my tent and talk to the county master. She has a restless temperament, so Lingzheng should not dislike her at that time."
"Don't dare, don't dare." Zhao Zhong was overjoyed. He was just looking for an opportunity to see the Fule County Master. Now that the Master has spoken, he asked his wife to take a look and accompany him to say a few words. OK
Since Rong Xia joined the other rebels, Ban Hua didn't worry much about the affairs of the army. She is a lazy person who can stand when she can sit, and not sit when she can lie down. Now that Rong Xia is in charge of the lieutenant and generals, she just has peace of mind.
So now she has nothing to do with her personal bodyguards to compare swords and arrows with others. Although she does not have the majesty of the right general appointed by the imperial court, at least she has become one with many soldiers. Having been with these soldiers for a long time, Ban Hua has had enough of the big sister's addiction. She rides a horse and draws a bow to shoot flying geese. She climbs trees to touch fruits, and goes into the water to fish. In the tooth festival.
If it wasn't for her fair complexion and beauty, the soldiers would almost have called her "Brother Ban" instead of "Sister Ban".
There is no way, although Ban Hua's words and deeds are so heroic that the soldiers are convinced, but as long as they see her face, they will tell them rationally that this is a famous beauty, and it's really sorry to call her "brother".
After being worthy of being a famous general, ten Erlang can't match his courage and ability.
On this day, Ban Hua abused several young and vigorous soldiers on the martial arts stage. Hearing the female guard, Mrs. Zhao asked to see her, and she cupped her hands to the soldiers present: "I'm sorry, brothers, I have something to do. , everyone slowly gesture."
"Sister Ban, walk slowly!" All the officers and men returned their salutes in unison, even a big man in his twenties or thirties with a beard on his face called Ban Hua "sister" with reverence, if they were not wearing clothes Armor, when the common people saw this scene, they might think it was a Taoist priest who came out to collect protection fees.
Mrs. Zhao sat on the chair uneasily, feeling a little empty in her heart.
After coming to the military camp here, she heard a lot of rumors about Fule County Lord. It is said that this county lord is extremely beautiful, and the lord loves her very much, and even the military tent is not separated from her. It is also rumored that this county master has outstanding martial arts skills and is highly respected by soldiers in the army. She is a woman who only knows the back house. If there is something wrong with her words, I wonder if she will look down on her
Just as he was thinking wildly, the curtain at the door was lifted, and a young and beautiful boy wearing a brocade robe and jade crown with curly hair walked in. Mrs. Zhao's heart trembled because the heartbeat of this young man who was several years younger than her was a few beats faster.
After she regained her senses, she remembered that this is the tent of the lord and the county lord. Who is this young man, who actually broke in dressed as a nobleman.
"Sister Zhao, please take a seat," Ban Hua saw Madam Zhao staring at him blankly, and patted the men's clothes on her body, "When you go out, dress casually, which will make Madam laugh."
"I've seen, I've seen the county master," Mrs. Zhao didn't expect this beautiful young man to be the county master of Fule. She took a few deep breaths and suppressed her pounding heart, "The county master is too good-looking, let her be a concubine. I lost my mind and forgot to salute, please forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay, please sit down quickly," Ban Hua sat down at the top and smiled at Mrs. Zhao. Mrs. Zhao has an oval face, fair skin, and her hair is tied with a few wooden hairpins. It may be because everything is simple in the military camp, and her clothes are mainly to please, but it can be seen that this is a very easy-going woman. After the guard served tea, Ban Hua greeted Mrs. Zhao for tea and said, "I remember you have two children, why didn't you bring them together?"
"The dog is still young and ignorant. I'm afraid they will come and quarrel with you."
"It's okay, no matter how noisy the child is, I can take care of it," Ban Hua waved, "I don't care about that, Madam just bring it next time."
Although Mrs. Zhao was easy-going, she didn't know what to say at this time. But what surprised her was that the county master knew that she had two children, which was really strange.
"My private relationship with Miss Zhao is pretty good, so sometimes I hear her mention you," Ban Hua smiled, "My mother also cares about you very much. When you return to the capital, you must go to my mother and father to sit there. As soon as she sits, she will be very happy to see you."
Mrs. Zhao was amused by Ban Hua's relaxed tone, she nodded and said, "I will come to your house to disturb you."
They are still rebelling at the moment, listening to the tone of the Fule County Master, it seems that they have succeeded. No wonder the lord likes the lord so much. It turns out that the lord is the one who has the most confidence in the lord.
"No harassment," Ban Hua thought for a while. "There are many men in the barracks. If you are bored on weekdays, come and sit with me."
With Mrs. Zhao's temperament, she probably wouldn't be too embarrassed to go out in the barracks, and walking around with her would also relieve her boredom.
Mrs. Zhao also understood that this was Ban Hua's kindness, so she agreed. Before marrying the Zhao family, she had also heard that the county owner had a marriage contract with the Zhao family, but it was a pity that her uncle, who had no chance to meet, left early and had no relationship with the county owner.
After saying goodbye to the Lord of Fule County, Mrs. Zhao returned to her camp. When Zhao Zhong saw her coming back, he said, "Madam, has County Master Fule ever made things difficult for you?"
Mrs. Zhao smiled and shook her head: "The county master is so kind and enthusiastic, and he wants to keep me for dinner. I thought that the master would definitely go back to eat with the county master, so I insisted that I did not agree."
When Zhao Zhong heard this, he was relieved: "Fortunately, you are useless, otherwise I would have to eat alone with my two children."
"It's actually nonsense," Mrs. Zhao and her husband's children were sitting around a somewhat crude table. Seeing that the two children were eating sweetly, Mrs. Zhao took two more pieces of meat into their bowls and turned to Zhao Zhongdao, " Princess Fule is a special woman, I looked at the people over there in the main tent and respected her very much."
"That's good." Zhao Zhong nodded and felt relieved.
"The princess also said that if I was bored, I would go to her place to sit."
"Okay," Zhao Zhong said immediately, "I was worried that you would be bored in your tent all day and feel uncomfortable. That's fine. The Fule County Master is a good place to go."
"That's not it, the county master Fule is dressed like a boy, but he is very handsome." Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but said, "If I were a little girl of more than ten years old, when I saw her for the first time, I was afraid that my heart would be budding, and I would never look at her again. No other men."
Zhao Zhong:…
Rong Xia led the army through the boundaries of Zhongzhou unimpeded. Adjacent to Zhongzhou was Xunzhou. Rong Xia's pioneer army had just arrived at the city gate, and before they had time to attack the city, they saw Xunzhou's city gate wide open, Xunzhou. All the soldiers and officials in the sect greeted him in formal attire, and there was no intention of resisting at all.
They stayed in Xunzhou for two days, and all the soldiers did not disturb the people or forcibly levy food and grass. This made the people who were originally restless moved and gratified. When the rebels left Xunzhou, some people came to see them off with melons and fruits in front of them. .
Chicken, duck, fish, melon, fruit, rice, and facial flaws did not accept, but they accepted the water bag presented by a centenarian.
"Rong X's heart is the heart of the people, but everyone's life is not easy, how can Rong X have the heart to watch everyone suffer from hunger?" Rong Xia held the water bag high above his head, "Water is the source of life, Rong X accepts the old man The water bag given is to accept the hearts of the villagers, please take care of the villagers, and let Rong leave."
Xunzhou was moved by Rong Xia's attitude and rhetoric, knowing that all the rebels had left, and some people were standing at the gate of the city unwilling to leave.
"Good man, good man." The centenarian old man stood up with the hands of his children and grandchildren, and looked up at the sky, "God has eyes, and finally let us see hope."
The people around were infected by the emotions of the centenarian, and they all expected Rongxia to become emperor.
The rebels left Xunzhou, and the next place was Jingzhou. Jingzhou, like Xunzhou, opened its gates to welcome it. However, after Rong Xia and others entered the city, they found that the local officials were corrupt and incompetent, and they fished the people, so they convicted these corrupt officials and cut off their heads in front of the people.
For a time, the people ran around to tell each other, saying that a good official finally came to Jingzhou.
Ordinary people don't care whether the people who come are the imperial court or the rebels, as long as they can help them achieve justice and do not oppress them, then they are good officials.
What, you said that this handsome young official may become the emperor, and the current emperor is incompetent
Then you have to make a young high official the emperor. Why keep an incompetent emperor for the New Year? If you raise a pig, you can still slaughter and eat meat during the New Year, and it is useless to leave an emperor with fish and meat.
Ban Hua followed Rong Xia, watching the people smiling satisfied because of the beheading of corrupt officials, she was moved. These people don't know what it means to be loyal to the emperor, nor do they know poetry, poetry, calligraphy and painting, and they don't even know the name of the current emperor. They run around for a living every day, but they are so easily satisfied. Even if the emperor in a high position is not willing to work hard for the people, he should think about them and think about them a little bit.
At least... let them live a little more peacefully.
Corrupt officials had their homes raided, and Rong Xia arranged for a few people to take care of Jingzhou's affairs. After the people had accepted these people's management of affairs, he continued to march in the direction of the capital with the army.
It may be because Rong Xia killed corrupt officials in Jingzhou, which made the officials of other prefectures and counties panic, and they did not dare to welcome Rong Xia into the city, so some people began to resist fiercely, and some of the army led by Rong Xia hadn't caught up yet. At that time, he fled in a hurry with his wife and children's treasures, leaving only the officers and soldiers to resist.
Some officials deliberately spread some news, saying that Rong Xia was a murderous demon, and wherever he passed, blood would flow into rivers, wailing everywhere, and arousing the local people to resist. This trick is not very useful, because most of the people have already heard the news from other prefectures and counties, saying how good this Chengan Hou was, how tolerant he was to the people, and the corrupt officials along the way were also punished by him. .
When the people found out that the officials deliberately lied to them, the anger could not be suppressed.
Therefore, when Rong Xia and others came to Taizhou, which was already close to the capital, the gate of Taizhou was opened by a group of angry people. The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate did not stop the people very much, and they did not even draw their swords and let these people open the city gate.
Ban Hua rode on the horse, tilted his head to Rong Xia and said, "Rong Xia, are we really rebelling?"
How is this like a joke
