Zhu Biao also saw that the time had come to get rid of Hu Weiyong.
It's just the right time, the right place, the right people and the right people.
Why did Lao Zhu let the tiger return to the mountain?
Lao Zhu sneered: "If we don't let him go, it will only be murder. Then we can only kill him. How to catch all his accomplices."
Zhu Biao felt a chill behind him: Lao Zhu was giving Hu Weiyong a chance to rebel.
But what if Hu Weiyong did not rebel, but honestly confessed or escaped.
wrong.
If Lao Zhu wants to stop Hu Weiyong's rebellion, he doesn't need to actually summon his party members. As long as Hu Weiyong walked out of the palace and returned home to stay for a few days.
Lao Zhu said to Zhang Yu: "Tonight, all the pro-army captains are not allowed to rest. They take turns to stand guard and keep an eye on everyone in the Hu Party. Pass our secret order to the guards at each city gate. Don't stop anyone from the Hu Party who goes out to deliver messages. Send People follow them. Watch where they go and see if there is any abnormality in the person receiving the letter, and then report back quickly. After closing the city gate tonight, it will not be opened unless we give another order. During this period, no one is allowed to enter or exit. "
Then he smiled at Zhu Bai: "Ask the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to prepare to arrest people and ransack their homes!"
Hu Weiyong came out of the palace gate.
Li Cunyi hurriedly came up to greet him: "How is it?"
Hu Weiyong replied: "It's not convenient to talk here. It's called Tujie. Xu Duo and others came to my house."
When Hu Weiyong returned home, he immediately asked his servants to go out quickly to deliver the message, informing the four parties and the military officials who obeyed him.
Inverted! Rebel against this stupid, cruel and ruthless Zhu Chongba who killed ministers indiscriminately! !
Tu Jie and Xu Duo came to the Hu Mansion. Hu Weiyong ignored today's events and only said: "You and I have been waiting for so long, and we can't wait any longer. I have decided to start an uprising within three days. Everyone, be prepared and listen to my orders. .”
Tu Jie asked: "What is Mr. Hu's plan?"
Hu Weiyong said: "I am going to confess to Zhu Chongba in three days. After entering the palace, I will join forces with the people I have placed in the pro-military captain to kill him and Zhu Biao. Reinforcements from the guard stations coming from various places will control the city and stay behind. Ying Tianwei, Lan Yu Zhu Di and the others are beyond their reach, even if they come back, the overall situation will be decided."
Tu Jie said: "Master Hu is very clever, his plan is really thorough and impeccable."
They talked about the details for a while, and Tu Jie came out.
He was frightened and cursed secretly: Hu Weiyong is a mediocre person.
How dare you plot rebellion with such a haphazard plan? !
Not to mention that the military commanders of the five cities and the military commanders will not obey your orders. Once you enter the palace, you will be a bastard in the urn.
Lao Zhu makes you round and flat, but you can only bear it.
It seems that you knew that Lao Zhu was going to take action and that you were going to die anyway, so you jumped over the wall in a hurry to rebel.
Lao Zhu is such a stupid person. He let you out even though he knew you were a capital offender and gave you three days? !
Just showing you the fox tail!
I'll give you time to gather Yingtian's gang members so that they can all be caught in one fell swoop, you idiot! !
No, I can't follow Hu Weiyong, otherwise I won't know how I will die.
He made a good plan and immediately went to the palace to see Lao Zhu.
He is the censor Zhongcheng, and if anything happens, he can report it directly to Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu heard Tu Jie coming in the imperial study and smiled at Zhu Bai and Zhu Biao: "Look. Someone has already rebelled before anything happened. This is the mob!"
Zhu Bai couldn't help but sigh: Hu Weiyong, it would be great if you died honestly. I don’t know how many people are going to be implicated now.
Lao Zhu asked people to spread Tu Jie.
Tu Jie knelt down and kowtowed as soon as he came in, with an eager and loyal look on his face: "Your Majesty, Hu Weiyong wanted to poison Cheng Bo Liu Ji when he was seriously ill, but failed, and now he is planning to rebel."
Lao Zhu frowned: "These two crimes are not small. Do you have any evidence?"
Tu Jie said: "Hu Weiyong has sent people to contact the generals. Regarding the poisoning, both the imperial physician and the prime minister know about it."
Lao Zhu nodded: "Your loyalty deserves praise. We understand, you go back first and don't make any announcement."
Tu Jie said goodbye to Lao Zhu and came out, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid: Lao Zhu was so calm, he really already knew.
Fortunately, I was smart and reported it decisively, so I escaped.
Lao Zhu waited for Tu Jie to leave and then scolded him: "It's all because of this idiot who ruined our good deeds. Now that Hu Weiyong knows that he came to report, he will definitely not report it. We have to think of other ways to kill all Hu Weiyong's henchmen."
Just after Tu Jie left, Li Cunyi came to see him again and revealed to Lao Zhu that Hu Weiyong intended to rebel.
Lao Zhu went through the motions again and met him.
Li Cunyi burst into tears and said that he had gone deep into the tiger's den and had the real evidence of the Hu bandit's rebellion.
Lao Zhu listened expressionlessly and just asked him to go back and wait for news.
Zhu Biao frowned: "Li Cunyi and Hu Weiyong have always been in close collusion, how could they do the same?"
Lao Zhu said coldly: "What else? Someone must have reported to him and told him that we were going to take action."
Li Shanchang knew Lao Zhu's temper very well, and he couldn't watch his own brother commit suicide without reminding him.
If Li Cunyi doesn't expose Hu Weiyong, Li Shanchang will come.
-----
Hu Weiyong just saw that Tu Jie answered too cheerfully, which was quite different from his usual pushback, and he felt strange in his heart.
So when Tu Jie went out, he asked his servants to follow Tu Jie.
As a result, the servant came back to report that Tu Jie had entered the palace.
Hu Weiyong was shocked: This bastard betrayed me so quickly.
The previous plan was of no use.
I can only look for another chance.
Otherwise, I'll run away.
Take no one with you. Anyway, since my son is dead, Lao Zhu can’t find evidence of my rebellion, and there’s nothing he can do against my wife.
As long as you have money, you can go to a remote place, pay off Li Zheng, and change your identity, and you can continue to be happy.
He went out the next day, put some banknotes in his arms, and walked to the edge of the north city. He found that the city gate was closed, and his hands and feet suddenly became cold.
There is no escape, Lao Zhu has made the entire Yingtian into a big cage.
Suddenly someone said in his ear: "Master Hu, the emperor invites you to come to the palace to attend court."
Hu Weiyong turned around and saw that it was Commander Xu Du of the Beicheng Military and Horse Division.
Hu Weiyong murmured: "Go to court?!"
Commander Xu Du stretched out his hand and said: "Please. The emperor told me that I must escort Mr. Hu into the palace."
Hu Weiyong pointed to the city gate and answered the question differently: "The city gate is closed."
Commander Xu Du said: "Yes, it is closed. The emperor said that we can open the city gate after you enter the palace."
If we arrest you, we can open the city gate.
Xu Du commanded Hu Weiyong to be escorted to the palace gate and handed him over to Zhang Yu who was guarding there.
Hu Weiyong smiled bitterly: "The emperor still values his ministers very much, so he asked Mr. Zhang to come out to greet him personally."
Zhang Yu: "Master Hu, you'd better hurry up. The emperor has already gone to court over there."
Hu Weiyong: "I'm not wearing court clothes, how can I behave properly?"
Zhang Yu said: "The emperor said it. You can wear whatever you want, it doesn't matter. As long as the people arrive."
Hu Weiyong lowered his head and walked in with heavy steps.
He went to the court, but suddenly calmed down. Now he was just curious as to why Lao Zhu didn't arrest him directly. Why bring him to the court?
