The banquet broke up, and a dozen or so lieutenants and generals took advantage of the dusk to leave in batches.
Among them, Zhao Xingmi went to look for Sima Huada by night, and as expected, the latter was also drinking, and drinking alone. However, when Sima Huada saw Zhao Xingmi, who had always been attached to his family, he seemed particularly affectionate. He personally came down and dragged him to sit on the same bed, and then drank together.
There was no way, my father was dead, his son had run away, and he had no younger brother. Naturally, he had to concentrate on winning over a master and military leader like Zhao Xingmi who had always been attached to his family.
In this way, the two sat and talked and drank a few glasses of wine. Sima Huada was not a simple waste. In other words, there was a reason why he could stand next to this saint for decades. , and soon he finished greetings and asked people to find some belongings, which were delivered directly to Zhao Xingmi's residence.
Zhao Xingmi first avoided the table to thank him, returned to his seat, had two more drinks, and finally spoke:
"General, to tell you the truth, I was entrusted by someone to come to you specifically to find out what the Second Young Master has to say to you when he returns to the Eastern Capital?"
This question was so logical, but after listening to it, Sima Huada put down his wine glass and looked up to the sky in silence for a long time. Then he turned his head and pressed Zhao Xingmi's thigh and complained: "Old Zhao, it's not the first day you recognized my son. He is an ordinary person." Treat me like a father and give me a message, and I will have already taken Lao Qi and the others to catch up and go back to Dongdu! Why are you drinking bitter wine here?"
"Indeed." Zhao Xingmi nodded. "How come I don't know Erlang's temper, but General, I'm not here to ask, I'm entrusted by others... Those people don't believe that you, father and son, are just like strangers."
"Who are they?" Sima Huada asked, smelling of wine.
"There must be twenty or thirty people asking about General Ying Yanglang, joining the army, etc." Zhao Xingmi told calmly. "I just came from a banquet, and that's what they asked me to go for."
Sima Huada, who was a little dazed, couldn't help but raise his forehead after hearing this, and then began to settle accounts.
Let us also say that after the Second Expedition that day, the Wei lost troops and generals, and the Guanlong Mansion troops at the core of the imperial court declined even more. At that time, the emperor's uncle Cao Lin took the lead and used the world's money and food to recruit the world's elite in the Eastern Capital and re-established a new Wei military core. strength. But then, the saint couldn't wait to launch the third expedition. In the process, the imperial court also re-announced the Sixteen Guards Generals, and the tens of thousands of Dongdu Xiaorui recruited and the remaining elite soldiers from various places around Dongdu were reorganized and expanded. Sixteenth Guards.
This army of sixteen guards is the military essence of the Wei Dynasty. Each guard is divided into left and right wings and has five or six generals. It gathers the essence of the military system of the Wei Dynasty. The total number is also certain... At that time, the Three Expeditions team left the Eastern Capital. The total number was 200,000. When they reached the Liyang area, some elite garrison troops from Hebei and Guanxi were gathered together, making the total number 300,000.
Together with the then-current Xuzhou Camp, Dengzhou Camp, and Hejian-Youzhou Camp, it was so majestic that it shocked the world.
Let’s not mention the three major camps now. Let’s just talk about the 300,000 troops of the Sixteenth Guards... part of them fled along the way; they suffered a loss at Luolongtan, and the first three armies led by Sima Changying were defeated; when they decided to retreat, Xue Changxiong went Hebei and Bai Hengyuan returned to Xiangfan; then came to Jiangdu, and Han Yingong left Xuzhou with 20,000 people and fled; Sima Zheng also left after leaving the town of Xuzhou; Tu Wanchanglun and Yujieluo divided their wings to suppress the Jiangdong and Jiangxi rebels and failed. Excluding the one and a half guards placed on the canal-Huai River in the north... How does Sima Huada calculate? The most that can be communicated around Jiangdu City at the moment is six guards, with a regulation of 70,000 or 80,000.
Six guards, each with a general, six Ying Yanglang generals, two soldiers, and one supervisor... plus Sima Huada, there are only exactly sixty people... No, neither can the supervisor So in Jiangdu City, there are only about fifty high-ranking military officials who can get together to drink.
There were about fifty people in total, and now twenty or thirty people came to ask themselves, is it okay? !
"I'm going to be tricked to death by this traitor!" The moment the accounts were calculated, Sima Huada was shocked and angry. He suddenly brushed the table with one hand and knocked half of the table of food and wine to the ground. "I am his biological father, but what do the lives of his biological father and several uncles mean to him?!"
"What did the saint say?" Seeing that the other party realized the seriousness of the situation, Zhao Xingmi struck while the iron was hot and asked immediately. "Isn't the saint annoyed that Erlang returned to the Eastern Capital with 30,000 elite troops and nearly two guards? There has been no movement for several days, and everyone below is frightened."
"This is also a big trouble..." Sima Huada put aside his pretense and gasped in embarrassment. "I went to ask the saint to apologize, but the saint said, 'It's okay to go back,' and he continued to watch singing and dancing. While waiting, he asked me if I could go to Jiangning? When will the palace be ready?"
Zhao Xingmi was stunned, and then he felt a burst of Lihuo Qi burning up from his chest for no apparent reason.
Don't look at the word "regicide" he said before, but in fact, regicide is never a goal, but a means. The real purpose is just to go home and return to the Eastern Capital! It's just that after seeing Sima Erlang leave, the saint still had no intention of going back. And based on everyone's understanding of the saint, they knew that he was the biggest obstacle to going back, so they had no choice but to say these two words!
Since it is a last resort, why are you suddenly angry now? And sudden, extreme resentment?
Because Zhao Xingmi suddenly realized from Sima Huada's words that the saint in the palace knew what was right and what was wrong. He knew that it was right to bring the army back to the east, but he just didn't go back! I just don’t want to do the right thing!
And what else could be the reason?
The saint wants to save his last face. The saint doesn’t want to go to the Eastern Capital where Uncle Cao died. The saint doesn’t want to pay attention to the mess in the whole north! And the saints still have to enjoy it! And in order to maintain this kind of hidden life, the saint also wants the remaining Dongdu Xiaorui to continue to be his bodyguards... This guy has no idea that these tens of thousands of Dongdu Xiaorui are living people with ideas and families!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xingmi suddenly lost his temper again.
Hasn't Cao Che always been like this?
Starting from the closest blood relatives to him, to the heroes of the Wei Dynasty, to the new and old nobles of Guanlong, to the ordinary soldiers, to the low-level civilian husband... Who has been regarded as a human being by this guy? Who hasn't been killed by him in movies?
In other words, he couldn't kill Cao Lin, otherwise he wouldn't have died until now.
There is a saying from the Deposed Dragon Gang that the situation in the Wei Dynasty is falling apart! The top is disintegrating and the bottom is falling apart. This is not without reason!
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Xingmi gritted his teeth, looked at Sima Huada and said, "General, I just got angry at our saint."
Sima Huada was stunned for a moment, then looked around. After realizing that there was no danger, he wanted to persuade him.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xingmi took the other person's hand and explained in detail the rise and fall of his anger just now.
Sima Huada had no choice but to lean back to escape. However, the opponent was a master of elixirs and could not break away at all, so he had to maintain this awkward posture.
After finally listening, he quickly came to persuade: "Old Zhao, don't say these words, this is a recipe for disaster."
"It's not me who's causing trouble, it's you, the general." Zhao Xingmi responded coldly.
"What are these words?" Sima Huada was shocked.
"The reason is very simple." Zhao Xingmi said and let go of his hand. "General, I'm usually a stupid person. I can figure out that it's the saint who is causing trouble if I can't go back to the East. I'm usually quite cautious, and I can have such resentment towards the saint... So you dare to ask, please ask me today. What do these dozens of military pillars who are inquiring about the news think? I can think of things, but they can't think of them? I can be angry, but they can tolerate it? And if everyone becomes angry together, General, you are now in charge of the city defense. , Erlang went to Dongdu again, General, can you escape from this mountain of swords and fire pit?"
Sima Huada thought for a while and felt that this was the truth. He couldn't help but lose his mind, so he grabbed the other party's hand and cried directly: "General Zhao, do you think I don't know? I was still counting on you. These old friends protect me, but now even you are angry, what can I do?"
"I have an idea." Zhao Xingmi thought for a while and continued.
"Tell me quickly."
"It's very simple. General, you pretended to convey a decree, saying that you want to regain Xuzhou and take everyone away... As long as you get to Huaixi, you can even go to Erlang! At that time, you Sima family will be the master of the capital, and all of us will Since our family is in Dongdu, we will follow your father and son to do things." Zhao Xingmi offered advice seriously.
After hearing this, Sima Huada was stunned on the spot, and then stared at the other party. After a long time, he grabbed the wine glass in front of the other party that had not been brushed away and drank it all in one gulp. However, he kept asking with the smell of alcohol: " Old Zhao! I treat you well, why are you teasing me?! When the army sets out, how can it be possible not to alarm the saint? Without the saint, there is still Yu Changji, Prime Minister Yu, and Lai Zhan'er is in charge. And Xuzhou has been deposed in front of him. If the thief is caught, he will have to fight when he returns to the east. How will the logistics be provided? And... and in the military, it is true that most of the families are around Dongdu, but there are also many people who have been given marriages here in Jiangdu. They If you want to leave, don’t you need to take your family with you? Not to mention, there are also mixed local soldiers and horses! Are they willing to leave?!”
Zhao Xingmi also smiled: "Yes, if you really want to leave, you must get the nod of the saint and then reorganize the troops, right?"
"This is natural." Sima Huada said helplessly.
"Will the sage nod?" Zhao Xingmi was persuasive.
"Of course not..." Sima Huada laughed, then immediately froze, but then he suddenly realized and let go. "What do you want to say?"
"I want to say that once Emperor Cao dies and Erlang leaves, the army below will never wait any longer." Zhao Xingmi spoke sincerely. "General, you only fear saints, don't you fear the people below?"
Sima Huada was not surprised, but shook his head: "At worst, I will get drunk every day, just hide... and pretend not to know anything."
Zhao Xingmi thought for a while, without much persuasion, he stood up and was about to leave.
Sima Huada didn't pay attention. He didn't know anymore.
On the other side, after Zhao Xingmi came out, he returned to the original place, and unexpectedly saw Sima Jinda, the seventh most accomplished man of the Sima family. It was Zhang Qianda who really obeyed and brought him here... Zhao Xingmi originally I was still a little worried, but seeing this person, I regained my footing and even gained confidence.
"What did the Seventh General say?" Zhao Xingmi came first and asked.
Sima Jinda looked at Zhao Xingmi, then at the local host, and simply said: "My Erlang has done a great job, and I want to go back! But looking at your situation, especially Sima Huben is here, I can't help but think too much. What...what do you want to do?"
It turned out that the other person was Sima Deke, the commander of the imperial army who actually controlled the two guards of Jin and Wu, who succeeded him as General Huben after Sima Zheng left Xuzhou.
No wonder the senior officers who accounted for half of the army were dominated by this person.
"Seven generals, the matter is very simple. Most of the Forbidden Army around Jiangdu came from Dongdu, and almost all of them were officers. Everyone wanted to return home. Now that Cao Lin is dead and Erlang has returned, the capital is even more suppressed. I can't suppress it. But I just came from the general. The general's meaning is very clear. The saint's temper is absolutely unacceptable... In fact, we don't dare to directly persuade the saint to go back, because the previous advice All dead." Zhao Xingmi was full of energy and his logic was clear. "So, there is only one way."
Sima Jinda was silent for a moment, holding the long sword in his waist and asked coldly: "What method?"
"We should launch a mutiny, kill those traitorous ministers, and escort His Majesty back to the Eastern Capital." Under the gaze of Sima Deke and Zhang Qianda, Zhao Xingmi spoke sincerely and gave an unexpected and reasonable answer.
"How can this be done?" Sima Jinda sneered.
"What do the seventh generals think?" Zhang Qianda, who brought the people here, couldn't help but ask. "Weren't you very determined just now? You said that as long as you can return to Dongdu, you can do anything."
"I am very determined now." Sima Jinda glanced at the other party, and then continued to look at Sima Deke and Zhao Xingmi while holding his sword. "Sima Huben and General Zhao, I think that although the Wei Dynasty is unruly and Cao Che is violent and abandons the world, he is still the emperor who has been in power for many years, his prestige is still there, and he has a narrow temperament. Let alone whether he can be successfully kidnapped, that is If you succeed, you will kill us when we return to Dongdu... Therefore, your methods are useless, you must kill him! Only then can the matter be settled!"
Sima Deke and Zhao Xingmi each cheered up.
But at this time, Sima Jinda continued: "However, Cao Che is the king after all, how can ordinary people do regicide? Only the destiny is clear: don't go east to west, don't go south to north, now my second son God's will to grant the Eastern Capital and capture the essence of Tianyuan is the clear proof that our Sima clan is the successor to Cao! Therefore, I think that I should take my eldest brother as the leader, destroy the Cao clan, and determine the priority, so that I can calmly be in the north Return."
At this point, the man sneered again: "To put it bluntly, without me, Sima, this thing would not be possible! If nothing else, how are you going to deal with the deposed dragon thief on the way home? Who will deal with it?"
Sima Deke lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhao Xingmi was relieved: "Seven generals, I mean the same thing, but the general is just afraid and unwilling to come forward."
"This matter is simple. Once we get started, we will take him out. By then, won't he be able to distinguish the pros and cons?" Sima Jinda waved his hand.
"What should we do now?" Zhang Qianda couldn't wait to ask.
"If Sima is willing to come forward, I have some ideas." Zhao Xingmi spoke seriously, but then looked at Sima Deke who did not express his position.
"Come on." Smadek finally expressed his stance. "If you can go back to Dongdu, why can't you recognize Sima Erlang?"
"First, we need to figure out who can be used and who can't be used." Zhao Xingmi didn't sit down at all, so he spoke in the back hall full of leftovers. "Privately, I want to tell everyone about the stakes of returning to the Eastern Capital and the Saint will not allow us to return to the Eastern Capital. If you are willing to admit it and want to go back, you can use it; and if you want to return to the Eastern Capital but are afraid of the Saint, don't panic. Just We said that we wanted to kill Yu Changji, and then escort the saint back. If we agreed, we could use it. If we took a step back, even if we didn't dare to mutiny, we had to tell them that we wanted to mutiny and then flee back to our hometown on our own. If you wanted to, you could still do it. Use; the last few people are the ones we have to deal with."
Sima Deke and Sima Jinda both squinted their eyes to look at Zhao Xingmi.
Zhang Qianda was even more delighted: "Okay, I'll go tell you."
"You don't have to tell it, go find someone to tell it, tell it at every level, don't run around alone." Zhao Xingmi continued. "Especially you, General Zhang, you have other things... which is the second thing I want to say now. Secondly, there are four grandmasters around Jiangdu. You must use their strength to fight, and to use their strength to fight, you must We need to isolate the inside and outside and control the secrets, so we have to send the most reliable and core people to key positions... Including the fact that we dare to plan this now, isn't it because General Sima controls the city defense, and Sima Huben controls the palace city? ? But it’s not enough, General Zhang, you have to go to the imperial court to keep secrets."
"I'll make the arrangements." Sima Jinda waved his hand immediately. "Big brother doesn't care about things, but I can use his name to make arrangements."
"Not just the emperor." Zhao Xingmi continued. "The stables, warehouses, arsenals, city gates, palace gates, and ferries must be replaced by their own people... Everyone must work hard."
"Natural." Sima Deke agreed. "Any more?"
"Thirdly, we need to control some things and don't go directly to the other generals. General Sima and Sima Huben are enough. We invite more of these big shots. We are not worried about them leaking secrets, but it is easy for things to go wrong internally and everyone goes their own way. "
"Any more?"
"There are also four grandmasters."
"With all due respect." Sima Jinda sneered. "You, General Zhao, have such a plan that you can almost wipe out all the troops. Even if the four masters want to stop us, we can't form a formation to deal with them."
"It's better not to fight if you can." Zhao Xingmi hurriedly came to persuade him. "I mean, Yujieluo and Tuwanchang argue that the two old generals are from Guanzhong and have the same intention of going back... But it doesn't matter. The key is that we are a mutiny and can be achieved quickly. In the end, they In the neighboring counties, the news was blocked and the matter was done, so they didn’t care.”
"Yes, the key is Lai Zhan'er and Duke Niu...how do you want to deal with them?"
"This is the reason for isolating the inside and outside. After isolating the inside and outside, they falsely accused Tu Wan Chang Lun of leading his army northward to defect to Bai Hengqiu, and then suggested that the saint come to Zhan'er as commander and lead local troops from Jiangdu to send troops to suppress it." Zhao Xingmi gritted his teeth and said. . "Lai Zhan'er will leave first, and then find someone to tell the saint that the Jiangning palace has begun to be built. The people of Jiangdong still remember the saint's kindness. Please ask Duke Niu to go to Jiangning to check the progress of the palace and arrange the palace people... As soon as Duke Niu crosses the river, we Just do it! As long as you succeed, any master must figure out why he wants to fight? Who are he fighting for?"
"That's the truth."
"feasible!"
"Just do it!"
In this way, the four of them panted and made a plan in the back hall with flickering candlelight.
After a while, Sima Jinda still laughed and asked: "General Zhao, I have never seen you so wise."
"What a fool!" Zhao Xingmi said in a rare voice. "Firstly, I was forced to be anxious; secondly, before I was replaced from Huaikou, I happened to witness across the Huaihe River how Li Shu, the deposed dragon thief Zhang Xing, dealt with... I originally thought that he came from Hebei in a hurry and was anxious. When we go back, there is no doubt that there will be some trouble or even a fight, but the result is so simple...it can be regarded as learning something now."
Both commanders breathed a sigh of relief.
"The road back will not be smooth either." Thinking of this, Zhao Xingmi replied quietly. "Zhang Xing placed the Du Po Formation in Xuzhou. Those who lose their families due to Du Po Formation will definitely fight to the death... This gives Zhang Xing enough time to prepare in the rear."
"So we must put my eldest brother first and unite as one to return home." Sima Jinda emphasized.
"That's a far cry." Smadek shook his head. "We are doing something stupid now, and we have to suppress our thoughts about everything after it is done."
In the back hall, the remaining three people nodded together.
Although there were twists and turns, this rebel group finally completed the task of connecting the Sima family, a famous family in Guanlong, and the powerful family in Jiangdu, and worked out a feasible plan in the shortest possible time.
Next, starting from that night, large-scale connection began.
First, the four of them split up to find the backbone of the previous banquet. According to the new stratification principle, they tested their reactions to the word "regicide" at the banquet. After re-confirming and sorting out the reliability of these people, they went there early the next morning. The whole army spreads.
By this time, Jiangdu City had actually been reduced to a large military camp surrounding the palace... In addition, the emperor enjoyed himself all day long and did not care about political affairs; Nanya Yu Changji could not stand alone and only catered to the emperor and dealt with the surroundings; the bureaucrats of various ministries had no local districts. The block was in name only; even the Beiyagong people were forced to fall into trouble because the main force was defeated and surrendered by the Dragon Army when they moved south... Therefore, these officers actually came and went openly during the day, and there was no connection between them. Scruples.
As a result, the entire army maintained unprecedented consistency in its return to the Eastern Capital.
Senior military officers also completed the triage very quickly.
If Zhao Xingmi's words to Sima Huada last night were meant to be exaggerated and intimidating, the more than 20 words were actually half-truths and half-falsehoods (the number is correct, but some of them were lower-level school captains, captains, and five hundred masters). and others), so at this moment, it is basically certain that almost everyone has the intention to return to the east capital, and at least four-fifths of the people basically agree that the worst case scenario is to just break up and escape.
Not to mention, in the afternoon, if nothing else happened, something unexpected happened... Specifically, more officials outside the military took the initiative to participate after becoming aware of the trend.
Think about it, why don't they want to go back, and which one of them is not a human spirit? In addition, Guan Long was originally a general and a prime minister, and many civilian officials had military experience, so the channels were open.
On the evening of the second day, after Zhao Xingmi counted the list, he was surprised to find that 80% of the senior officials in this small Jiangdu court were willing to do something to go home, and more than 50% of the officials were not afraid of using weapons.
Even Neishi Sheren, Imperial Physician Zheng, and Fu Baolang all joined in.
"What should we do now?"
In the back hall of Sima Deke's house, more and more core personnel gathered, and after seeing Zhao Xingmi burning the list that had just been counted, some people couldn't help but ask anxiously.
There was excitement in his tone.
"Now I'm going to meet Yu Changji...Which of you has a personal relationship with him?" Zhao Xingmi was sweating profusely.
No one answered. It was obvious that Yu Changji, who came from a lower-class southern noble family, had already become the object of resentment from everyone above and below him after suffering in Jiangdu for several years. Don't say it didn't exist in the first place, even if it existed, it is gone now.
"The situation is not very good." Zhao Xingmi looked at several key members and spoke anxiously. "The situation is developing too fast, and we have to speed up. Otherwise, Yu Changji and Lai Zhan'er will definitely notice something...or have already noticed it. We must act quickly."
Everyone's expression changed immediately.
"General Zhang and I went to see Yu Changji to see if General Zhang could be transferred to Jianmen Zhige (the most direct leader of the imperial guard). You guys are waiting for the news. Even if there is no problem, we will have to deal with the remaining few key points tomorrow. The position will be taken and then launched in advance, but the rumors of returning home on March 15th will continue to spread to paralyze them." Zhao Xingmi was obviously really panicked. "And if something happens, everyone should leave the army alone and run away!"
Everyone was worried and didn't mention it, so Zhao Xingmi got up and went with Zhang Qianda.
At this time, Sima Jinda stood up to stop him: "No, Old Zhao, General Zhang was transferred to the Prison Gate Zhige because he was probably begging me to be the winner. Your identity is wrong. You can't expose your flaws just because you are worried and want to see with your own eyes." ...It’s better for me to go.”
Zhao Xingmi thought for a moment, then nodded and sat there waiting.
On the other side, Sima Jinda and Zhang Qianda arrived directly at Yu Changji's mansion in the dusk to ask for an audience... Everything was going well in the beginning. When they arrived at the mansion and entered the flower hall, when Yu Changji entered with his hands behind his back and an expressionless face, Zhang Qianda suddenly had a war between his two bodies. , not even daring to raise his head.
"What's going on?" Yu Changji asked calmly.
"What could be going on? I'm scared." Sima Jinda forced himself to make it up. "So this guy went to my eldest brother for help, and my eldest brother asked me to come to Xianggong Yu for help..."
"Are you scared by something?" Yu Changji didn't even look at the two of them. He just spread out pen and paper on the case and prepared to write.
"Rumors inside and outside Jiangdu." Sima Jinda continued. "Rumors about returning to the Eastern Capital... Normally, these rumors will come up every few months, but this guy is not telling the truth this time. He used to work under my Erlang and boasted about it after drinking, so he was thought to have real connections. You can go back to Dongdu, but I was pestered by some gangsters and had no choice but to find my elder brother. Please transfer him out of the army and find another job that can avoid those people and avoid being misunderstood."
"What position do you want?" Yu Changji asked calmly while writing.
"Jianmenzhige."
"Hide to His Majesty's side?" Yu Changji finally raised his head and glanced at the person coming.
"Only His Majesty can avoid those people." Sima Jinda was also a little panicked.
"Okay." Yu Changji nodded and continued writing.
The two people in front raised their heads and lowered their heads, but they were both a little stunned... Is this enough?
If it goes so smoothly, could it be a scam?
Are you numbing people like yourself?
Just thinking about it?
Over there, Yu Changji finally finished writing his calligraphy in a hurry, then pointed to the calligraphy on the table and said: "My calligraphy is worth five hundred gold!"
Sima Jinda and Zhang Qianda were instantly relieved, and the latter responded immediately.
The former was about to agree, but he came to his senses and frowned slightly: "Five hundred gold is too much. General Zhang's level is no problem..."
"No bargaining." Yu Changji responded coldly and had already begun to wash his hands in the washbasin brought by the servant next to him.
"Four hundred gold, how about I send it to Mr. Yu's hometown in Qiantangjiang?" Sima Jinda continued to persuade him.
"Okay." Yu Changji finished washing his hands without saying a word and agreed calmly. "The document will be dispatched to Nanya tomorrow morning. Once the writing is done, where should I send my family?"
"My residence will be fine." Sima Jinda quickly handed over his hand and then said goodbye knowingly. "Go ahead and don't disturb Mr. Yu's evening leisure."
Yu Changji said nothing and watched the two people leave, standing there in a daze.
The next day, Zhang Qianda, the backbone of the rebel group, indeed became a prison guard and went directly to the imperial court.
So far, the rebel group has successfully controlled the city defenses of Jiangdu City, the palace guards, and the most direct imperial guards. And just this morning, there was news that Tu Wan Chang Lun had met Wang Huaitong, Bai Hengqiu's envoy, and planned to return north.
To be fair, Wang Huaitong's appearance was unexpected by everyone. This solid news naturally gave the rebel group an unexpected boost.
All we can say is that the situation is not a small good, but a great one.
However, in the afternoon, Zhang Qianda was on duty for the first time. After meeting the saint and standing outside the door of the side hall with his knife in hand, he had just calmed down when he suddenly heard a sentence that almost paralyzed his heart. :
"Your Majesty, there are rumors that someone is going to rebel. Does Your Majesty know?"
The speaker was the queen who had come with the saint to watch the singing and dancing.
PS: Thanks to the reader for reminding me that Sima Shida has died and was changed to Sima Jinda.
