Chapter 1012 The old emperor dies!

After Yuan Wenshao returned to Bianjing, he was ordered to enter the palace by Zhao Zongquan before he could settle down with his family. He also met Shen Congxing at the gate of the palace.

Seeing that he was still a little haggard, he comforted him.

"Brother Shen, you have to cheer up. After all, there are still several children here~"

"Zhongxuan, I'm fine!"

The old emperor's health was getting worse day by day, and he was about to go there. Even if Zhao Zongquan had no feelings for this cousin, he still had to pretend to be a filial son and grandson.

He spent the whole day in the Renming Palace looking after his clothes, and the cooked medicine had to be tasted to see if it was hot or not. In fact, the emperor's palace was originally the Funing Palace, but because of the psychological shadow of the last rebellion, the old emperor changed it to another one. Live on earth.

Zhao Zongquan was extremely busy. Not only did he have to take care of the old emperor, but he also took time to learn about the situation in the court and official information. He slept no more than two hours a day.

He was so busy that he slapped his head on the back of his head. Even after his wife and children were picked up from Yuzhou, he couldn't even find time to talk properly.

After entering the palace, Yuan Wenshao and Shen Congxing were taken to the side hall of Renming Palace by the young eunuch. They sat there and waited for two-quarters of an hour before finally seeing Zhao Zongquan's obviously sales figure.

"Greetings to Your Highness!"

"Okay, don't do this false courtesy, just find a place to sit by yourself~"

Zhao Zongquan was too tired to put on a show, so he simply sat on the ground with a flick of his sleeves, took the food from the interior and ate while talking.

"I have ordered you to enter the palace for something. Now is a special period. Everyone should work harder and stabilize the current situation!"

"Zhong Huai has gone to the western suburbs camp, Xiao Duan is responsible for guarding the palace city, Lao Geng is guarding the city gate of Bianjing day and night, Bo Qin is busy with the affairs of the Imperial City Department, you can't be idle, one of you has to maintain public order in the capital. , and the rest will go to the eastern suburbs camp~"

"You two can choose between these two places!"

When Yuan Wenshao heard this, his eyes moved. There seemed to be a deeper meaning in his words. In terms of relationship distance, he was definitely not as good as his brother-in-law Shen Congxing, so this meant that he had no choice.

He immediately made a decision and said: "Reporting to your highness, I am lazy by nature and am not suitable for leading troops outside. Why don't Brother Shen do more work and let him go to the western suburbs camp?"

"Just before going to Yuzhou, I worked in the Wucheng Military and Horse Division for a while, and I am familiar with everything!"

Zhao Zongquan took care of the old emperor during this period, and his efforts were not in vain. He also learned some emperor's skills when he was awake.

So I am very satisfied with Yuan Wenshao's answer, because although they are both people whom they trust, they are also close and distant.

Gu Tingye has already restrained the nearly 100,000 troops in the western suburbs camp, but the 50,000 troops in the eastern suburbs camp are still safe in the hands of his brother-in-law.

He devoured two mouthfuls of rice, took a sip of tea after swallowing, and asked Shen Congxing knowingly, "Wen Qian, what do you think?"

"I can do it!"

"Okay, there are two armies in the western suburbs camp. Among them, the commander-in-chief of Wu Yi Army has been promoted by His Majesty to General Yong Ping Bo Zhao. You can go to Guo Yi Army to do the fifth-level duty first!"

"As ordered~" Shen Congxing bowed and saluted, finally showing some joy on his face.

From being a ninth-rank Yuhou in the Yuzhou Xiang Army to being a fifth-rank official in the Forbidden Army, that is equivalent to being promoted seven levels in a row.

"Go and work hard, don't embarrass our Yuzhou!"

"Don't worry!"

After Zhao Zongquan arranged for his brother-in-law, he stood up and came over to take a look around to make sure no one outside could hear him.

Then he whispered: "Zhongxuan, the situation in the Five Cities Military and Horse Division is complicated. We are all our own people. I understand that people should not tell secrets. The commander is the disciple of King Yong!"

"So there is no way to change it for the time being. I can only ask you to do a good job as a fifth-grade official first. There are still remnants of the rebel king in the city. They must be cleared away!"

"Your Highness, don't worry. It may not be feasible for me to lead troops in war, but this is what I am good at. I guarantee that the public security in Beijing will be stable while Your Majesty is recovering from illness!"

After Yuan Wenshao left the palace, he didn't even have time to go home, so he went directly to the Five Cities Military and Horse Department to take up his post... In the blink of an eye, a few days passed by. The old emperor's condition became more and more serious, and there was an undercurrent in the capital. Yuan Wenshao was also under great pressure.

Sitting in his own official room in Wucheng Bingma Division, he was playing with a small tiger charm in his hand.

"Rongbao, how do you understand the situation?"

"Sir, the composition of the people in the yamen is very complicated. Many officials from various departments were appointed by King Yong and King Yan, so everyone is in danger now!"

"Bang, bang, bang!" Yuan Wenshao knocked on the table again and again.

This situation is not surprising. King Yong has been appointed as the governor of Kaifeng before. This is a position that only the prince can sit, so King Yan will take risks.

The two men fought almost to the point of defeat, and as the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division maintaining public security in Bianjing, it was natural that the two sides were at loggerheads.

The entire lineage of King Yan had fallen. Many of them had followed the rebellion and were executed, and the remaining ones had their homes confiscated and cleared out.

But before King Yong was officially canonized, the whole family was already beaten by King Yan, so his family was still a bit difficult to deal with. After all, Lao Zhao was not the emperor yet.

I have been living in the Yamen for the past few days, and I have learned about the situation by forgetting sleep and eating. The five-city military and horse command department has one person who is the commander of the fourth rank, one person who is the commander of the fourth rank, one person who is the commander of the fifth rank, and one person who is the commander of the fifth rank. There are two promotion officers.

The rest include experience, prison, judgment and other institutions, and the chief officers range from the sixth to the eighth grade.

My job is equivalent to the third-in-command, but of course I am now the second-in-command, because the commander above is temporarily vacant. The original one who relied on King Yan to cause rebellion has already been ransacked and executed, and it was Yuan Wenshao who personally led him there.

As a security agency, the Five Cities Military and Horse Division has 200 cavalry as a mobile force. The power to mobilize this team is usually in the hands of the capital commander.

But that person was King Yong after all, and Lao Zhao couldn't sleep even if he was in his hands, so he was temporarily under Yuan Wenshao's control.

……

After all, the old emperor didn't survive more than half a month. Yuan Wenshao finally returned home. It had been a long time since he saw that the gun had enough ammunition, so he naturally had to indulge.

After finishing that matter, he was sleeping soundly with his wife in his arms. He had been exhausted these past few days. He was still somewhat uncomfortable with being suddenly promoted to a high-ranking official position.

"Bang bang bang!" A violent knock on the door disturbed Yuan Wenshao's sweet dream.

He opened his eyes and frowned.

"Who is it?"

"Sir, someone is coming from the palace!"

"Brush~" Yuan Wenshao became energetic instantly.

Something big must have happened to someone coming to the palace this late at night. After soothing Hua Lan who sat up in a daze, he motioned for her to continue sleeping while he put on his clothes and walked out.

I was instantly happy when I saw the person coming. Since he was not a eunuch, I guess Old Zhao didn't trust him very much, so he was sent by a servant of the Zhao family.

"Hey, it's Xiangzi~"

"Master Yuan, His Majesty has just passed away. His Highness has asked you to maintain public order in the capital and make sure no trouble occurs~"

The servant named Zhao Shun came over and whispered a reminder.

Yuan Wenshao put away the smile on his face and nodded seriously.

"Your Highness, please rest assured that I will fulfill my mission!"

After waiting for the others to leave, go back to the house and change your clothes, then get on your horse and lead the people straight to the Bingma Si Yamen in the inner city...
