Yi Song

Chapter 287 These two couples
After Fangla captured Muzhou and claimed to be the Holy Duke, he immediately divided his troops to attack Shequzhou.

The two states of She and Qu were all captured. Zhou Fangzong, the magistrate of Shezhou, Peng Rufang, the magistrate of Quzhou, as well as more than a dozen people including the county magistrate and county lieutenants were killed and captured.

Then the main force went north, sweeping through Xincheng, Tonglu, and Fuyang counties, and entered Hangzhou.

The magistrate of Hangzhou, Chen Yu, abandoned the city and fled. The rebel army captured Hangzhou. The magistrate Chen Jian, the criminal envoy Zhao Yue and other officials were killed and captured. They set fire to the city for six days, killing countless people.

Then the troops were divided and continued to attack.

Zhu Yan and Wu Bang from Lanxi, Taoist Qiu from Shan County, Lu Shinang from Xianju, Chen Shishi from Fangyanshan, Shi Sheng from Suzhou, and Lu Xing'er from Gui'an all led the crowd to respond to the uprising.

With their cooperation, Yue and Wuzhou in the south were captured, and Hu, Xiu, and Suzhou in the north were captured. Southeast was shocked.

Every time Fang La occupied a land, he searched the officials and aristocratic families, tortured them severely, and extorted their belongings.

Then all the officials and celebrities were escorted to the government office, and then the people of the state and county were ordered to watch. Either cut off the flesh and limbs, take the lungs and intestines, or boil them in water to make ointment, or pierce the body with random arrows, and divide the body with knives and axes.

All kinds of torture are shocking.

Seeing this urgent report, the monarchs and ministers of Baozhuan Palace were frightened and turned pale.

If you all run away, if the official appoints one of the four of us to quell the chaos, wouldn't I be in trouble?

All the official families in the southeastern states were slaughtered.

"Such a tyrannical person must be exterminated immediately! The imperial court must save the people in the southeast from the fire! Wang Qing, Deng Qing, a few days ago, didn't everyone swarm up to Shu, asking for their own troops to go south to quell the rebellion?
Go and call them all. I will conduct an interview at the Huixian Palace, select the best, and grant military talismans. If you want soldiers, give soldiers, if you want food, give food. "

He was so angry that he swiped his right hand and swept all the four treasures of the study and documents on the dragon desk to the ground with a clatter.

"Your Majesty, I am reporting from Prince Jia's Mansion that the three kings contracted wind and cold the day before yesterday and are bedridden. They are calling the Imperial Hospital for treatment."

When we go to the southeast, we want to gain military merit on sick cats, not to feed tigers with our bodies.

The four prime ministers were also in a state of confusion.

Wu Min and Cai You looked at each other, and Cai You said in a tacit understanding: "Your Majesty, as a Privy Council member who signed the same contract, and as the acting military privy councilor for the emperor and father, I have the responsibility to discuss the chaos in the southeast, and I also have the obligation to provide good advice."

Unexpectedly, Southeast Nanla, who was thought to be a sick cat, suddenly transformed into a mad tiger and a devil on earth.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Yongqing Army Chengxuan Envoy reported to the house that Sun Erlang was visiting Jinming Pond the day before yesterday and unfortunately fell into the water. Half of his three souls and six souls were gone. He is asking a real immortal master to summon his soul."

This urgent report from the southeast has most likely been spread. Knowing these tragic news and knowing that Fang La is a crazy tiger, all the heroes will definitely retreat.

"Back to Your Majesty, I am reporting to the General's Mansion from the Right Jinwu Guards. Sun Dalang was riding a horse yesterday and unfortunately fell and injured his leg."

Hundreds and thousands of officials and aristocratic families were massacred. They were all famous scholars and scholar-bureaucrats. Now he is being killed by thieves like chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs. As an official of the Song Dynasty, he has lost his face.

Zhao Ji was so angry that his hands and feet became cold.

The four prime ministers had long been prepared, but they never expected that none of these grandsons would come.

Looking at the furious Zhao Ji, Wang Fu, Bai Shizhong, Wu Min and Cai You knew what was going on.

Zhao Ji felt particularly comforted when he saw Cai You acting obligingly and taking responsibility.

Each reply made Zhao Ji's face darker and darker.

These bastards, when there is benefit, they all move forward bravely, but now they have to chew hard bones, and they shrink back very quickly!

All the people weep and every road groans.

My ministers are not all empty-handed!

"If Cai Qing has any good ideas, just tell him." Zhao Ji said in a gentle voice.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that Duke Yan be summoned immediately."

You bastard, I don’t know why I should fight with Liu Erlang!

Damn it, this is your plan!
Zhao Ji only felt that ten thousand mythical beasts were running past in his heart.

I didn't know that once my son-in-law takes action, everything will be peaceful.

The key is that I can't let him fight all the battles in the world by himself, and let him receive all the military honors by himself. By then the entire army will be in his hands, and he may have to copy some of Taizu's ancestral methods.

I have half a son-in-law, but he is really not my son.

I have many biological sons, and there is no shortage of this son-in-law!

"Your Majesty," Liu Ruoyu hurried in.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed. Finally, a loyal minister came to volunteer?
Well, as long as you take the initiative to lead troops south to quell the rebellion at this time, you will be just a dog, and I will also make you a propaganda envoy. "Officials, celebrities and imperial students from the Southeast in Beijing heard about the tragic situation in the Southeast. They all cried bitterly and knelt down at Donghua Gate to ask Your Majesty to send Wang Shi as soon as possible to quell the chaos, restore the Southeast, and give justice to the victims."

Wang Fu was so anxious that he jumped up and down. Why are these bastards joining in the fun at this time?

From the bottom of his heart, like Zhao Ji, he did not want Liu Erlang to lead troops to the southeast to quell the chaos.

He sees deeper than Zhao Ji and knows Liu Erlang's methods better.

He served as the Xuanfu envoy to Hedong, Shaanxi Province. After several battles, Hedong, Shaanxi Province was managed like an iron barrel by him. He tried every means to put people in, but he either died on the road or died in office.

The various ways of death are shocking.

Wang Fu and his followers were all shocked by Liu Erlang's boldness and cruelty. However, if people dare to do it, they can still handle it, and the officials still have great favor and trust.

If you dare to give him eye drops secretly in front of an official's house, within two days, your eyeballs will be gouged out.

If he were allowed to lead troops to the southeast again, let alone the rest, the party members he had put in in the southeast after all the hard work would probably die violently one by one.

You bastards, I told you a long time ago not to stand up to that Lingguangyuan, and if you have money, we can all make it together. You just think that she is a helpless daughter of the late emperor, and you treat her as nothing, only colluding with the local aristocratic family, and eating her up.

Don't you know that this couple, Lingguangyuan and Liu Erlang, have been hooking up for a long time, and they both gave birth to a daughter.

It's okay now, everything is over!
Zhao Ji hesitated for a while and finally opened his mouth.

"Go to Xuanhuafang quickly and invite Duke Yan here!"

When Liu Guozhang left Baozhuan Palace, he was neither happy nor sad.

The officials gave themselves the title of envoy to the southeast, which only allowed them to lead the army in wars and suppress chaos, but did not give them the same political power as the envoys of Xuanfu.

What a thief!

as expected.

Although Zhao Ji is indecisive and has soft ears, after being the emperor for so many years, he can still learn some things without a teacher.

But it doesn't matter, as long as he goes to the southeast with the imperial edict and presides over the plan to quell the chaos, there will be no difference between the establishment of the envoys department and the envoys department of Xuanfu.

Along the way, I was thinking about how to dispatch troops and generals, how to arrange deployment, and came to Xuanhuafang. After hesitating for a moment, he went directly to the Princess of Jin's Mansion.

When I arrived at the middle courtyard, I saw that the entire courtyard was dark and filled with people kneeling on their knees.

There are chamberlains, maids, and women, all of whom are used in the inner house.

Zhao Fujin sat on a chair in front of the entrance to the front hall of the central courtyard, looking at the heads of people in the courtyard with neither joy nor sadness.

Near the front, a woman was kneeling, being escorted by two chamberlains. When she saw Liu Guozhang walking in, she quickly shouted: "Prince-in-law, prince-in-law! I'm just following orders. I'm following orders. My hands and feet are clean. I'm absolutely clean. I've never stolen anything." The princess’s jewelry. Please ask the consort to intercede for you.”

This woman's surname was Yan, and another woman surnamed Zhang were both female officials sent by the palace.

According to the ancestral system of the Song Dynasty, these two palace ladies had a lot of power, and they could even take care of the princess sleeping with the consort.

And at a glance, these two people knew that they were spies sent by some concubines in the palace.

Under Liu Guozhang's step-by-step guidance, Zhao Fujin had already perfected his skills in palace fighting. He used to direct the Liu faction's forces behind the scenes and participate in court battles, which was very orderly.

These two women were easily captured.

The woman surnamed Zhang was quickly surrendered by Zhao Fujin and became his confidant.

However, the woman surnamed Yan relies on the support of others, does not get in, and interferes with everything. She even interferes in the two people's boudoir fun.

In the current situation, it should be that Zhao Fujin is not used to her and wants to deal with her.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

"This guy stole my treasures, sold them on the streets, and everyone got the stolen goods. He prepared some expert techniques and sent them to Kaifeng Mansion."

There are Li Gang and Zhang Zeduan in the Kaifeng Mansion, just like the ones at home. If a woman surnamed Yan is sent in, there is a high probability that she will not come out alive.

"Oh, this is an internal matter, for the lady to handle. I will go in to drink tea. I have something to discuss with the lady."

"Okay, Sir, do as you please." After Zhao Fujin finished speaking, he said coldly, "Come here, give this thief woman thirty sticks. If she's not dead, send her to Kaifeng Mansion and ask Zuoting to deal with her."

"Yes!"
