The emperor issued several secret decrees one by one, then frowned, and whispered something to Eunuch Yao. Eunuch Yao was slightly startled, but his head was lowered extremely, for fear of showing any inappropriate emotions.
The situation in Dadongshan was that Emperor Qing used himself as a bait to lure and kill the two great masters. Of course, he was prepared for everything that happened in the world, such as the five thousand rebels at the foot of Dongshan, and the upcoming conspiracy in Kyoto.
Since the eldest princess has the ability to organize such a big situation, of course she will not miss the opportunity to control the Qing country in one fell swoop. This opportunity was given to her by the emperor. The emperor seemed to have no choice but to rush back to Kyoto and use his supreme authority to stabilize the situation in Kyoto.
The emperor had already laid down the state army all the way in Jiangbei, and it did not involve the transfer of the Privy Council. It was all planned secretly with Xue Qing and the governor of Jiangbei Road, so naturally it would not disturb the Qin family's forces. With such an ambush army, how can the 5,000 rebels at the foot of Dadong Mountain be worthy of the Tao
All the conspirators regarded the emperor as a tiger in a trap, but they didn't realize that this tiger was standing by the trap all the time, watching those hunters stumble indifferently.
If Emperor Qing wanted to rush back to the capital and forcibly suppress the civil strife, it would not be difficult to do so. However, the emperor had two conversations with Chen Pingping next to the palace pillar in front of the imperial study. When he made this plan, he never thought that once the matter of Dadongshan was settled, he would use a large army to sweep Dongshan Road, and then return to the court to clean up the government. . Although the Dadongshan incident happened by the coast, its influence has spread throughout the Qing Kingdom. For him, this is a rare opportunity.
The Dadongshan incident, after a long period of planning, the primary goal is of course to remove the two biggest obstacles to Qing's unification of the world. These are the so-called foreign troubles, but the foreign troubles have been eliminated, what about the internal troubles
This is an opportunity for the emperor to use his own death to lure out all the restless factors in the court. Those ministers who seem to be extremely loyal to him on weekdays, once they know that they are dead, will they follow their will? Do you still have the slightest respect for me? Will the villain hidden in the dark mist jump out at this time
As His Majesty the Emperor has always emphasized to Fan Xian and his sons, he puts people first and foremost, and the current situation in Kyoto is undoubtedly the best opportunity to test people's hearts.
The emperor stood in front of Ye Liuyun, who was sitting cross-legged and healed, with a calm face and slightly wrinkled eyes. He told Eunuch Yao something very simple, and then sent an order to Chen Pingping to block the news, to block Fan Xian and Ye Zhong together.
These are the two people whom the emperor trusts the most. The emperor wants to see them for the last time. Once Fan Xian and Ye Zhong have passed this psychological test, they will be able to gain his absolute trust. It is just that the emperor on the top of Dongshan at this time Your Majesty, I really did not expect that the situation in the capital would be so dangerous, and the people in the palace would be hurt so much, and his sister would be so strong.
Ye Liuyun sighed, and said softly: "If you don't hurry back to the capital, I'm afraid there will be a big mess."
If you want great governance, you must first create chaos. Only by washing out the gold in the yellow sand with blood and rain, and building a Daqing Dynasty with one mind and one heart, can lay a good foundation for the unified mainland war in two or three years. Emperor Qing didn't care about the price, but he didn't underestimate his sister too much, knowing that if this happened, the whole Qing Kingdom might be in turmoil.
"This country was brought down by me." The emperor said indifferently: "Even if Yunrui is firmly established in the capital, I can still fight back."
As soon as the words came out, the emperor didn't say much, and after coughing twice, with the support of eunuch Yao, he walked slowly towards the blood-stained mountain gate at the foot of Dadong Mountain. At this time, the arrow had already been fired, and the sound of fighting at the foot of the mountain was heard again. The officials and attendants who accompanied the worshipers went down the mountain in panic. Several people had already prepared a stretcher, and humbly supported Ye Liuyun to lie on it.
Although the transmission of information in this era is extremely slow, although Chen Pingping, who is far away in the capital, has already arranged everything, although the Overwatch Council is strong enough to block the leakage of the real news on Dongshan Road, and although the emperor is sure that at the beginning of the conspiracy, My proud and crazy younger sister will send the news of her death back to the capital, pushing the whole situation into an irreversible crazy situation—yes, once the bowstring is moved, there is no reason to go back, since the eldest princess has activated Regarding the matter of Dadongshan, no matter whether the emperor is alive or dead, she must deal with all matters in the capital with the state of mind that the emperor is dead. This is desperate madness.
However, Ku He and Si Gu Jian were alive after all, and the 5,000 rebels at the foot of the mountain and the Jiaozhou navy rebels at sea could not be completely wiped out. In seven days at most, the real situation of Dadong Mountain would be spread.
Judging from the distance between the two places and the ability of the Overwatch Council to block it all along the way, people in Kyoto will know this earth-shattering news in about 30 days.
At that time, the eldest princess must have been mobilized for more than ten days, and Kyoto didn't know if it could hold on.
The emperor walked down the mountain in silence, thinking about all this. Although he was confident, he still didn't want his capital, his Qing Kingdom, to experience too much turmoil. However, comparing the two, he was still willing to take a risk. To see people's deepest sincerity.
Look at people's abilities, especially Fan Xian's, and see if Fan Xian can understand the heart of the emperor and guard his homeland for the emperor.
He did not expect that Fan Xian fought a beautiful battle, but was restrained by the eldest princess with even more beautiful means. Fan Xian finally guessed what His Majesty was thinking, but the means he used to guard that piece of Kyoto home was the Emperor Wan. I didn't expect it, and I didn't want to see it.
Because the emperor counted and counted, he still missed one point—that is the attitude of the queen mother. This emperor who is famous for his filial piety and claims to rule the world with filial piety has forgotten his mother. The survival of the country and the royal family comes first, more important than anyone else's life except himself.
But before going down the mountain, His Majesty the Emperor, who had just achieved the greatest success in his life, still calmly delivered the last decree - to capture the leader of the rebel army at the foot of the mountain alive - although the man in black at the foot of the mountain was not a great master, but in Emperor Qing's mind , but another very important person.
————————
Wang Qinian fled down the mountain along the dense forest with his head bowed in the wind and rain. Before Ku He's first palm was on the chest of the old eunuch Hong, the official of the Overwatch Council, who had a quick grasp of opportunities, secretly took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention. slipped down the hill. Known as the two wings of the Overwatch Council, he was a gangster who ran across the Eastern Barbarians and the Northern Qi Dynasty back then, and he was indeed a bit sharp when he made such stealthy moves.
The sharp edge of the leaves slid across his body. Although it couldn't cut through the special official uniform made by the Overwatch Council, it still shocked him. He didn't know what would happen on the top of the mountain. He only knew that such a scene was not from his level. Characters should be prying, should be curious.
In his opinion, His Majesty the Emperor is doomed. No one can survive under the combined attack of the three great masters, so he immediately decided to flee. His idea was very simple. When it came to the capital, although I don't know if I can meet Fan Xian who is also on the way to escape at this time, at least Dean Chen must be notified.
After jumping over a mountain pass, he vigilantly took advantage of the wind and rain and the cover of the woods to come to the mountainside without a sound. However, at this time, he heard a muffled thunder-like sound on the top of the mountain, and then came the curling bell.
It was Emperor Qing's kingly killing punch, and the moment when Si Gu Jian's body was seriously injured and hit the bronze bell of the ancient temple.
Wang Qinian was stunned, and continued to dive with his head down. However, after walking for a long time, he felt some movement behind him, subconsciously hid his body in a pile of weeds, and looked at the sloping stone path from a distance. .
Two bloody men walked down the stone path. The young man Wang Qinian was very familiar with. He was Wang Shisanlang who had been with Jiangnan for a long time. Who was on his back
Wang Qinian's eyes widened. Listening to the feeble but funny conversation between the two blood men, he finally knew who Thirteen Lang was carrying.
The bloody man with the broken arm is Thirteen Lang's master.
Wang Qinian is the confidant of Fan Xian's confidantes, he even knows about the box, so naturally he also knows the true identity of Thirteenth Wang. Wang Shisanlang is the closed disciple of Si Gu Jian in Dongyi City, so his master is... Si Gu Jian!
Wang Qinian's horrified pupils narrowed sharply, and he didn't dare to utter a word, only dared to watch this wonderful and sad pair of master and apprentice quietly, walking down the mountain step by step along the stone steps. After a while, he came back to his senses, but he was still a little lost, wondering what happened on the top of the mountain? Who in this world can injure Sigu sword like this
Before Wang Qinian woke up from the amazement, a figure in sackcloth floated down from the mountain in a strange posture, half suspended in the air. Wang Qinian almost vomited blood when he saw this scene, what happened to Master Ku He? ? spell? But looking at the face of this old bald donkey, why does it look like a zombie
Two great masters walked past Wang Qinian in such a dejected way, perhaps they had already discovered Wang Qinian's lurking like a field mouse. mind to pay attention to him.
But Wang Qinian was greatly shocked, he couldn't figure it out, after a while, how did the two great masters who killed like gods to the top of Dongshan Mountain before become like this.
After a long time, he stood up straight with trembling legs, looked back at the top of Dongshan Mountain, and wondered if His Majesty had won? At this time, he should probably go back to the top of the mountain to see what happened, but the shock and some faint throbbing in his heart urged his legs to continue to move down the mountain.
After noon and night, there were killing sounds from the mountain, and Wang Qinian, who was hiding in the dark like a bat, finally took the opportunity to highlight the battlefield, and finally clarified the fact that His Majesty is still alive and well, and the rebellion has failed , the great masters are miserable.
At this moment, he made a decision on his own initiative, no longer following the team of offering sacrifices to heaven, but ran towards the capital at the fastest speed, he must tell Fan Xian the truth about this matter, and provide Mr. Only by referring to the background information can Fan Xian avoid making unforgivable mistakes in the capital.
Wang Qinian is an official of the Overwatch Council and a courtier of His Majesty the Emperor, but he has only one identity for sure - he is Fan Xian's confidant. He knows that Fan Xian has too many things and thoughts, and he is very afraid that Fan Xian will be killed because of His Majesty's death. , and made some wrong decisions.
Just like Xu Maocai, a general of the Jiaozhou Navy, persuaded Fan Xian to make a decision on the boat.
For some reason, Wang Qinian guessed what His Majesty was thinking. He was terrified, worried for Fan Xian, and worried for everyone in the capital—so he rushed back to the capital as fast as he could, after going through countless twists and turns, and grabbed the Before the Overwatch Council, and ahead of the Eldest Princess' eyeliner, he came to Chen Yuan with this news that was destined to shock the world.
He was the first person in the world to spread the news.
However, he didn't spread the news after all, because the old lame man of the Overwatch Council tied him up directly, gagged his mouth, and didn't give him any chance to pass the news out.
In the few days after the old cripple knew the situation in Dadongshan, he just got into a habit. He often sighed to his old servant: "You know, it is not easy to let a person die."
—————————
When Wang Qinian was about to slip down to the top of the mountain, Gundam had already slipped away. The confidantes around Fan Xian undoubtedly had too much of Fan Xian's taste, and they were different from most people in this world. He began to subconsciously regard his own life as more important than the life of the emperor.
In a society of imperial power, this is a kind of rebellious thought, but although Fan Xian never said it explicitly, his way of doing things secretly without telling the court, and his subtle influence on the words and deeds of the people around him all showed this point.
Near Mo Zhehei, when Gao Da trembled and fled down the mountain, he certainly did not think of this. He did not see the seriously injured figures of Si Gu Jian and Ku He like Wang Qinian, but he also discovered the truth at the foot of the mountain.
He was scared and terrified, because he and Wang Qinian had different identities. The officials of the Overwatch Council were His Majesty's servants, while the Tiger Guards... were His Majesty's servants, or the last layer of guards. Wang Qinian could run, but the Tiger Guards... No, especially when the emperor's life was in danger.
Fleeing in front of the battle is a disgrace and a heinous crime to the Tiger Guards. Gundam may be able to lighten the sense of shame in his heart, but he cannot avoid this crime.
The stone path was full of Huwei's corpses and broken blades. All his colleagues died on Dadong Mountain, and when he vaguely understood the ending of the assassination on the mountain top, Gao Da became angry, sad, and scared.
One hundred tiger guards died like this, why did His Majesty care about their lives? Gao Da's heart was cold. He knew that he would never be able to return to His Majesty's side. Once he showed up, he would be severely punished by Qing laws and palace regulations. His own death would not count, and perhaps even his family members would be punished. implicated.
So he chose to run away more resolutely. He trusted Fan Xian, but he couldn't return to Fan Xian's side, because he didn't want to bring any trouble to Mr. Fan.
He just wanted to leave that unfathomable imperial palace, that majestic majesty, go to a distant place, and live the rest of his life in peace.
In the epilogue of Dadongshan, the two cronies who belonged to Fan Xian chose their own paths. At that time, it didn't attract too many people's attention, and no one even discovered it. But life is such a thing, who can predict the future? A drink and a peck are all deterministic, the cause planted today, I don't know what kind of bitter fruit it will bear in the future.
…
…
Gundam and Wang Qinian were on the way to run, thousands of rebels at the foot of Dongshan Mountain, and ninth-rank assassins in Dongyi City were also on the way to escape. Before the Jiaozhou navy ship sailed into the deep sea, it was already captured by Shazhou. The dispatched fleet blocked the direction of escape.
Although the combat power of the state army assembled from two groups was far inferior to Yan Xiaoyi's personal longbow brigade, the first battle between the two armies was the most imposing, Ku He and Si Gu Jian, two figures who were like gods in the hearts of ordinary soldiers, They all ended so badly. What will these rebels who betrayed His Majesty think in their hearts
When His Majesty the Emperor, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and Ye Liuyun, who had been the patron saint of the Qing Kingdom for decades, walked out of the mountain gate and appeared in front of the rebels, the rebellion had already come to an end, and the army's strength was not yet in sight. Move, the morale of the army has been defeated.
Thousands of rebels stood at the foot of Dadong Mountain in such a panic. The road leading to the four fields had been surrounded by state troops. They knew that they had no way out, but they couldn't afford to The last courage, the last struggle of life.
Because His Majesty the Emperor shattered everything they had with one sentence: "I pardon your capital crimes."
Believe it or not, this is still a sweet poisonous fruit. The rebels surrendered, but they don't know how they will be massacred and cleaned up in batches in the next two years.
…
…
At the beginning of the encirclement of the state army, before Emperor Qing went down the mountain. Yun Zhilan and a group of assassins from Dongyi City, after attacking the mountain, there were still a dozen or so people left. They received the Sigu sword that Wang Shisanlang bravely carried down from the mountain, knew the truth about the mountaintop, and escaped from the rebellion coldly. The brigade of the army began to fight towards the mountains and forests in the north. Such a team really possessed extremely powerful lethality, successfully broke through the outer periphery, and submerged into the secret mountain trails in Danzhou before.
Emperor Qing is a man but not a god, even if he can count everything, but in order to give the eldest princess a chance, for the sake of the overall situation, he can't do everything. There are too many internal cracks in the Qing Kingdom, and he wants to wipe out all the opposing forces in the world. , It is really a kind of wishful thinking, he is not surprised by Dongyi City's breakout.
However, Emperor Qing made a decree for the black-clothed coach of the rebel army, because he was very interested in that coach, and even though he knew it was unlikely to catch him, he still wanted to try.
Master Ku He, who had an ominous dark yellow face, was sitting on the back of the man in black's horse, following him to break out. A generation of grand masters looked so gloomy at this moment, a flash of light flashed in the eyes of the man in black. sorrow.
Because Emperor Qing had a purpose, he chased and killed the black-clothed coach the most. Although the strength of the state army was not strong, and all the tiger guards had died, Emperor Qing's team finally succeeded in chasing the black-clothed coach. stuck at an intersection.
Seems to be a dead end, the opponent has at least 300 soldiers, it seems that they can't stop killing, and the sound of chasing and killing from behind resumes.
Emperor Qing asked to be captured alive, but if he couldn't, so what if he was killed
The man in black led the northern army to encircle the mountain this time, and he brought only two personal soldiers. However, this man was able to divide and surround the forbidden army with strange subordinates, and did not let any of those people escape. god. However, in the end, the situation on the battlefield was like a mountain, even if he had the ability to reach the sky, he couldn't let those soldiers of Yan Xiaoyi overcome the awe and fear of His Majesty the Emperor and Ye Liuyun in their hearts, and they were still defeated in the end.
Looking at the hundreds of soldiers in front of him, the man in black, who had always been calm and gentle during the siege of the mountain, finally stood up slowly, and carefully tied Master Ku He behind him to his back. The soldiers each held two things wrapped in cloth, and after untiing the outer layers of coarse cloth, the metal rods about the length of an arm were exposed inside.
The man in black calmly took it with both hands, and they closed together with a thud. He swung one hand with killing intent, and a black fine iron spear was impressively in his hand. With a gun in his hand, a strong fighting intent burst out of his eyes like Pinghu, and his whole body began to emit a murderous aura, like a war god.
He clamped his horse's belly, and riding alone with a heavy load on his back, he rushed towards the three hundred soldiers with a thunderous momentum, unstoppable, as if the rain fell arrogantly that night when he returned to Shangjing.
…
…
"Two of his personal soldiers died, but he fled carrying a bitter lotus on his back." A general of the state army knelt in front of Emperor Qing and reported tremblingly.
Ku He looks around at the sword, what kind of person is bound on his back today to escape, Emperor Qing listened quietly, and couldn't help but feel something different in his heart, seeing the general panic, he couldn't help smiling and said: "If so I was easily caught by me, is he still Uesugi Tiger?"
