Riots broke out in Dingzhou, Jinzhou, Yizhou and Jingzhou on the same day. What's different about this riot is that after occupying various state capitals, they killed officials and robbed wealthy gentry and gentry, and then took out part of the looted food and other items to help the victims. Soon, the rebels of this uprising quickly expanded.
When Zhou Chuang got the news, he felt that it was not quite right. While sending his confidant to lead the soldiers to counter the rebellion, he hurriedly sent the news back to Beijing by 800 li.
Yan Wushuang felt that it was not right when he received the news, and said with a calm face, "If it were not agreed in advance, it would not have been possible to rebel on the same day." The four riots this time were clearly organized and planned.
Meng Nian heard what Yan Wushuang said: "The emperor, the people at the head know how to distribute the looted food, cloth and other items to the victims to buy the people's hearts. Things are more complicated than we thought." This rebellion is the same as usual. It's very different.
Yan Wushuang fell into deep thought, and after a long time he said to Meng Nian ugly: "Zhou Huan said in the Zhezi, these rebels have many weapons such as knives and guns in their hands, and these weapons are no worse than those in the army. If it were me It is a good guess that this rebellion should have been planned by Han Yuxi." Why did the peasant uprising be suppressed so quickly? Firstly, there is no plan to act with will, and secondly, there is no good weapon. Under this circumstance, how to beat the regular army.
When Meng Nian thought about it, it was really true. He immediately caught fire in his eyes and said, "It's really despicable to encourage the people to rebel."
Yan Wushuang really didn't expect Han Yuxi to come out like this: "Using the rebels to consume our military power. This is a very good idea." Yun Qing's temperament would not do such a thing. This idea was 100% correct. Han Yuxi thought about it.
In this regard, Yan Wushuang felt that there was nothing to blame, there was no right or wrong in many things, only victory or defeat. If it were him, he would definitely not give up if he had such an opportunity.
Meng Nian's expression changed and said, "The emperor, if this is the case, then Shandong will not be peaceful."
If Yuxi heard this, he would definitely sneer, even without her, Hebei and Shandong would still be at a loss. Just before the Ye Jiuyun uprising, there were rebellions in two other places in Hebei, but the scale was relatively small.
Yan Wushuang nodded: "Since Han Yuxi's fight is to consume our army's strength, Shandong must not be at peace."
Meng Nian said: "The emperor, we can't let Han Yuxi's strategy succeed."
Yan Wushuang did not answer this, even if he knew Han Yuxi's plan, he could not stop it: "I will let Zhou Chuang and Lou Qingyun pay close attention to the movement in the northwest, and will not give them the opportunity to support the rebels." They are not allowed to supply food and grass. Weapons, this group of rebels should not last long.
Meng Nian said: "The emperor, we have to tell the world what Han Yuxi did. Let the people know how despicable Han Yuxi is." This woman really did everything to achieve her goals. Compared to Yan Wushuang, Yuxi was already very gentle.
Yan Wushuang said, "Yun Qing and Han Yuxi definitely deny doing these things in private. Evidence must be found, and then they can be justified against Yun Qing and Han Yuxi."
Meng Nian said, "This is easy to handle. I'll let someone go and check it. Now that I have done it, I will be able to find the evidence." This is not secret, even if Han Yuxi wants to conceal it, he can't keep it.
Yan Wushuang nodded.
After the busy day, Yan Wushuang went to Zhanghua Palace. Because it was relatively late, Yuchen was already in bed.
Looking at Yan Wushuang, who was tired again, Yuchen felt very distressed, but said nothing, which was useless.
Hearing Yuchen's order to make him a supper, Yan Wushuang said, "Don't bother, just bring it up if you have food." Even simple things can only be done in half an hour.
Soon, Mother Gui brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar. This was originally Yuchen's supper, but Yuchen didn't eat it.
After drinking the bird's nest, Yan Wushuang lay on the bed, and Yuchen gave him a massage. After a while, Yan Wushuang said, "I remember you used to say that Han Yuxi was very kind, and even ants couldn't bear to trample to death."
Yuchen paused, and then said: "Yes. When she was a little girl, she saw ants go around, saying that these ants are also lives. She can't deprive these ants of their lives." This is not true. Yuchen fabricated it, but it happened in reality. After Yuxi relived, he was so in awe of life that even the ants did not dare to trample to death.
Yan Wushuang sneered: "Power can really change a person completely."
Yuchen felt wrong when he heard this, and asked, "The emperor, has something happened?"
Yan Wushuang said, "Thousands of people have died in Hebei's rebellion."
Yu Chen asked: "The emperor meant that this Hebei rebellion was planned by Yuxi?" Seeing Yan Wushuang nodded, Yu Chen said, "She is no longer the person I remember." Han Yuxi was different from when he was a child.
Yan Wushuang said: "It is estimated that Yun Qing will bring troops into the capital in the next year." When he said this, Yan Wushuang's expression was very calm. For him, it doesn't matter if the capital can keep the rules, but it doesn't matter if it can't.
Yuchen's heart trembled and said, "The emperor, is there nothing to do?" Seeing Yan Wushuang didn't say a word, Yuchen said softly: "The emperor, when Yun Qing and Han Yuxi are stable, they will definitely send troops to attack Liaodong." Once Liaodong is breached, the lives of the three of them will be in danger.
Yan Wushuang said with a non-smiling smile: "Why? Afraid?"
Yu Chen hummed and said, "I'm afraid." After a pause, Yu Chen lowered his eyes: "I have suffered a crime in my life, but I have enjoyed blessings, and there is nothing to regret. It's just that Achi and Abao are still young and live. It hasn't started yet."
Yan Wushuang was a little surprised. He didn't expect Han Yuchen to be so frank with him. With a laugh, Yan Wushuang said, "Don't worry, even if Liaodong can't keep it in the future, I will keep Abao and Achi."
Yuchen said softly: "I believe in the emperor." If you don't believe it, you have to believe it, because she has no other way.
Yan Wushuang closed his eyes and said nothing.
Yuchen got out of bed after serving Yan Wushuang to sleep, "Prepare water, I want to take a shower."
Giving Yan Wushuang a massage is not an easy job, she just sweated finely.
Mother Gui said, "The water is ready, and the empress can take a bath now." Every time Yuchen gives Yan Wushuang a massage, she has to take a bath. This is already a habit.
Waving to let Shixiang and the others go out, Mother Gui knelt down and asked Yuchen on her back while rubbing her back: "Mother, did the emperor mention Han Yuxi to you again?"
Yuchen sighed and said, "The emperor said that the Hebei rebellion was planned by Yuxi. The purpose is to consume the imperial court's military power and attack the capital in the future to get twice the result with half the effort."
Mother Gui said: "Han Yuxi really does everything, and he can think of such a slanderous way to achieve his goal."
"It doesn't matter if it is insidious, it is useful." After that, Yuchen said in a melancholy manner: "The winner and the loser Kou, when Yun Qing and Han Yuxi have conquered the world, these things will naturally be erased." Shi Shu, for Written by the winner.
Madam Gui's expression changed, but she soon calmed down: "Manny, Yun Qing and Han Yuxi think about this world, it's not that easy."
Yuchen shook his head and said: "The emperor said that Yun Qing will bring troops into the capital in the next year at most. Seeing the emperor's attitude, he is not sure to defend the capital." It is more than unsure of it, and Yan Wushuang has no intention of defending at all. Capital.
Seeing Madam Gui's face was ugly, Yu Chen said: "The emperor said that even if Liaodong can't keep him in the future, he will protect A Bao and A Chi."
Mother Gui frowned and asked, "What about you, mother?"
Yuchen said: "I naturally want to advance and retreat with the emperor." Yan Wushuang was born, she was born; if Yan Wushuang had a case, she would naturally follow.
There was no other person in the clean room, and Mother Gui had no scruples: "Manny, how can you rest assured that you leave the third prince and the eldest prince?" She could not feel relieved even if she didn't say Yuchen.
"I believe in the emperor." Seeing that Mother Gui would say more, Yuchen said: "Mother, needless to say, I am determined." Selfish or timid, she really didn't want to live the days of fear and fear.
This word quickly reached Meng Nian's ears. Because Yuchen was remarried, Meng Nian didn't look at Yuchen before, thinking she was greedy for life and fear of death. But now, he had a better view of Han Yuchen.
Yan Wushuang knew about this, and when he saw Meng Nian's attitude towards Han Yuchen, he smiled and said, "Everyone can say beautiful things."
Meng Nian was startled, and then said: "The emperor doesn't believe in the imperial concubine?" If he believed it, he would not say such a thing.
Yan Wushuang really didn't believe in Han Yuchen, if she had such courage, she would have died long ago, how could she still live till now. But he didn't look down on Yuchen because of this. Ants still survived, let alone people! Who wants to die if there is a chance of life.
Meng Nian frowned.
Yan Wushuang was unwilling to continue this topic, saying: "I just got news that the riot in Hebei was planned by an organization called Ye Jiuyun."
Meng Nian felt that Ye Jiuyun's name was a bit familiar.
Yan Wushuang: "Ye Jiuyun is the leader of the refugees outside Linzhou City. These people have received Han Yuxi's help, and they must have been desperate to her. Such people are left with endless misfortunes. You can ask them to get rid of him."
"I'll order it later." After a pause, Meng Nian said, "The emperor, since Ye Jiuyan's details have been ascertained, should we publicize this matter."
Yan Wushuang said, "It's not enough to just preach. I'm going to prepare an official letter to send to the northwest."
"Official letter?" Meng Nian didn't understand.
Yan Wushuang smiled: "Falcon is not proclaiming that Yun Qing and Han Yuxi are the heroes of the world, I will let the world see the true face of this couple." To win the world, Han Yuxi can't be exaggerated by any means. But you still have a good reputation for doing such a thing, there is no such thing as cheap in the world.
Overnight, the news that the rebellion in Hebei was planned by King Ming and Princess Ming spread throughout the capital. The flat-headed people could say a few words at most when they heard the news, but after hearing this, the literati and inkmen attacked Yun Qing and Han Yuxi one after another.
Zhong Shantong frowned when he received the news. If this is true, then this method would be too harsh.
Tie Kui had no idea about this: "If the court rescued the disaster, Yuxi would not be able to inspire them to rebel." Said that the court was incompetent and gave Yuxi a chance.
A fellow Zhong Shan said: "I heard that tens of thousands of people have been killed and injured in this rebellion in Hebei. I don't know if it is true or not."
When Tie Kui said this, he knew that Zhong Shantong was also affected by the rumors outside: "The people cannot survive, and sooner or later they will rebel. However, the scale of ordinary people's rebellion is not as large, and the court can quickly suppress it."
Zhong Shan was stunned. After a while, he said, "Master meant that the rebellion in Hebei was really planned by Princess Ming?"
Tie Kui shook his head and said: "It can only be said that this rebellion is related to Yuxi." Seeing Zhongshan's doubts on the face, Tie Kui said, "Before I came back, I got a message that the counter-insurgency army had lost more than 10,000 people. The rebels. If there are no people in the army who are good at using soldiers, it would be impossible."
Zhong Shantong was always convinced by Tie Kui, since he said so, there should be nothing wrong. Zhong Shan asked at the same time: "Master, don't you think that Princess Ming is not upright in doing this?"
Tie Kui glanced at Zhong Shantong and said, "I just said that even if Yuxi is not involved, Hebei and Shandong will not be at peace." Yuxi intervened, only to make the situation more chaotic. But since Yuxi and Yan Wushuang are enemies, there is nothing wrong with doing so.
"This matter has nothing to do with us." After saying this, Tie Kui changed the subject: "Old Zhong, I want to send A Zhan to the northwest." A Zhan is the son of the Xiao family. Apart from their husband and wife, only Zhong Shantong is the only one. understood.
Zhong Shantong was a little surprised: "Send to the northwest? Master, are you going to hand over the Third Young Master to Princess Ming?"
Tie Kui nodded and said: "Now the situation is getting more and more serious, and I will not know what will happen in the future." In fact, after A Zhan was born, he wanted to send him to the northwest, but the child was too young for fear of accidents. Now that the child is older, there is no need to worry about it anymore.
Zhong Shan stunned his head: "Master, did Yan Wushuang find something?" It should be impossible. They have been extremely cautious these years.
Tie Kui shook his head and said, "No. Sending A Zhan to the northwest is also a precaution." He had to leave roots for the Ning family.
"No, there won't be anything in case, sir, you will be able to live a hundred years." After so many years, I will survive in two years. If there was an accident at this time, then God would really have no eyesight.
Tie Kui smiled bitterly: "I have so many innocent blood on my hands, how can I live a long life."
Zhong Shantong immediately said: "Master, this is not your intention, you also follow orders." He knows that the master has always been disturbed because of those refugees.
With a sigh, Tie Kui said, "Even if you follow orders, these people are dead in my hands."
Zhong Shan fellow said: "Master, even if you resist the decree, these people will not survive." Tie Kui's failure to comply with the decree has no benefit except to get in. Yan Wushuang will still appoint others to kill these refugees.
Tie Kui did not reduce the guilt in his heart because of Zhong Shantong's words. Yan Wushuang is the mastermind, and he is the accomplice.
