Chapter 1318 Arrest
Xu House.

Xu Pengju and several generals were sitting in the hall, and the patrolling and searching of the Nine Guards rebels had been arranged, so they would not need these fourth-rank generals.

It stands to reason that the pacification of military chaos should be a happy thing.But at this time, the atmosphere in the hall was very sluggish, no one spoke, and the silence was abnormal.

Because they all know that things are getting worse!
The noisy things got out of control, and finally turned into riots attacking the city.This is already very serious, and Emperor Jiajing's anger cannot be appeased without killing a few people.

but……

When Luo Xin arrived, things went completely out of control. Luo Xin and the chaos started a war.Once the war starts, things will be completely different, and Jiuwei can already be charged with a rebellion.

Who is responsible for this?

Definitely not Luo Xin!

Luo Xin can definitely say that if he hadn't arrived in time, the chaos would have destroyed the inner city.From this point of view, Luo Xin is a hero.

So, who is the criminal?
Up and down Nanjing, there are all civil and military officials.

The civil servants are fine, at most they are dismissed.And he may not be dismissed yet, after all, many people in Nanjing, such as Ma Kun, Minister of the Household Department, are Xu Jie's people and Xu Jie's close buddies.With Xu Jie, the chief assistant of the cabinet, at most the official position will be degraded by a few ranks.

However, their generals are different. I am afraid that Emperor Jiajing will not finish the calculation if he does not kill a few.And Xu Pengju was afraid, Emperor Jiajing might not kill him, but he could win the title!

Once the duke's title is taken away, even if he is only reduced to a marquis, it is not something he can bear.

At that time, his loss will be great.

As a duke, there will be too many people who will give you face and dare not provoke you.

but……

A Marquis!

It's really nothing. If Emperor Jiajing deprived him of his military power and handed over all the general power to Luo Xin, the southern governor, at that time, his status would be lowered, his power would be gone, and he would have countless enemies or greedy people. , bite around him.

For a moment, Xu Pengju was upset and really lost his mind.And those generals also looked at Xu Pengju eagerly, hoping that he would come up with an idea.

"Ta Tata..."

There was a sound of footsteps, and the butler of the Xu Mansion came in and saluted, "My lord, Mr. Luo is here to visit."

"Lord Luo, Luo Xin?" Xu Pengju raised his head suddenly: "So quickly, he has solved all the Nine Guards camp?"

In his heart, he always thought that the reason why Luo Xin left immediately after breaking the siege of the inner city of Nanjing was to go to the Nine Guards camp, because there were still [-] soldiers there, and he wanted to get those [-] soldiers as soon as possible. The soldiers also appease or suppress them, which is the real solution to the danger of the military chaos.

Therefore, when he heard that Luo Xin was coming, Xin Zhi was very surprised.The Nine Guards camp was pacified so quickly, although the 6 people who stayed in the Nine Guards camp were not the main force in the noise, and the 3 people who made the noise were disabled by Luo Xin, Coupled with Luo Xin's reputation in the south, especially in the military, it is estimated that it will not be too difficult to suppress the Nine Guards camp.

but……

Is this too fast?

If all this is true, this Luo Xin is too terrifying!

At this time, Xu Pengju felt a kind of fear towards Luo Xin in his heart, glanced at several generals, got up and said:

"Go, follow me to meet Master Luo."

The eight generals stood up, followed behind Xu Pengju, all the way to the gate, Xu Pengju stepped out of the gate, his expression was stunned, he saw the thousand cavalry behind Luo Xin, but then he thought, now It was the time when the army was in turmoil, and Luo Xin led the troops for safety, so he smiled again and said:
"Master Luo, is the Nine Guards camp settled?"

"Not yet!" Luo Xin shook his head slightly.

"Master Luo, who is this?" Xu Pengju was stunned.

"Come and take care of the father-in-law to borrow a few people."

"Who?"

Luo Xin waved his hand.

"Hula..."

Dozens of soldiers rushed out from behind Luo Xin. They had already been instructed by the general of the Nine Guards that they were going to arrest those three people.So, they rushed straight at the three people, and before the three people could react, they had already pressed the three people down, tied them up, lifted them up and walked towards their team.

"Lord Luo, what do you mean?" Xu Pengju changed his expression.

Luo Xin remained silent, watched as he helped those three people onto the horses, and then raised his hand to Xu Peng and saluted:

"My lord, I have something important to do, so I'll take my leave first! I'll visit you again in two days."

After saying that, Luo Xin got on his horse and shouted: "Let's go!"

"Ta Tata..."

A thousand cavalry rode their horses to gallop and roared away.

There was no anger on Xu Pengju's face, but endless fear.He suddenly realized something.

At the beginning, it was he who instructed the three confidant generals to go to the Nine Guards to find a trustworthy general, and then those Nine Guard generals encouraged the Nine Guards to make noise.

Now it seems that Luo Xin has followed the clues, and then brazenly took his confidant away.

Can my three confidants keep their mouths shut?

Xu Pengju was not sure, since the generals of the Nine Guards surrendered and bit out his three confidantes, Xu Pengju's head was caught by the door, so he believed his three confidants.Therefore, in his opinion, those three confidants will definitely confess themselves.

In this way, isn't he, Xu Pengju, the one who caused the disturbance this time and finally caused the military chaos?

If Emperor Jiajing knew about this matter, he might not be seizing the title, but the head!
Xu Pengju's head is in danger!
but……

Xu Pengju stomped his feet resentfully, lamenting Luo Xin's cunning. When Luo Xin left, he still left someone to tell him to send soldiers out to patrol and search for the escaped Nine Guards soldiers. It is impossible to intercept and kill Luo Xin.

"How to do?"

Xu Pengju suddenly realized that he had no way out, even if he gathered all his four thousand cavalry, he was no match for Luo Xin.

"Is Luo Xin coming back to catch himself?"

"Do you want to close the city gate and prevent Luo Xin from entering? That would be rebellion."

"What exactly are we going to do?"

Xu Pengju was completely flustered at this moment, while Luo Xin led his cavalry all the way back to his camp. Luo Xin asked for the three generals to be untied, and spoke in front of the three people. very clear.

Xu Pengju can no longer cover you with this matter, no matter whether you tell the truth or not, with so many people reporting you, the three of you are doomed, and the nine clans will be implicated.However, if you tell the truth, I, Luo Xin, can save your lives.

In the face of death, even if it is just a straw, it will be regarded as hope, and it will be firmly grasped.Moreover, Luo Xin's character of keeping his word is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
