The group arrived at Young Master Sheng's mansion and broke into the mansion regardless of the guards' obstruction. Upon hearing the news, the mistress Tian Hui hurriedly came to stop Qin Shao from intruding.
After Qin Shao came in with a large group of people, Tian Hui came to comfort the panicked eunuchs and maids in the mansion.
Tian Hui's face turned cold, she pointed at Qin Shao and said angrily, "Who are you? Why did you lead the rebels into my house? Do you know where this is? This is the place where you don't obey the order and come whenever you want?"
When Qin Shao saw Mei Jingdao, he probably guessed that this girl should be the daughter of Tian Jian and the wife of Master Sheng. At that time, Master Sheng was getting married, so it was Qin Shao who chose the gift and wrote the congratulatory letter on behalf of His Royal Highness. , delivered to my house.
Qin Shao knew that she was the daughter of Zhi Su Nei Shi Tian Jian, so he had to bow first and then fight, bowing his hands and saying: "The prince of the East Palace is washing the horse. Qin Shao, you must be Mrs. Tian, right?"
Tian Hui frowned angrily and said in a cold voice: "Are you from the prince? Why do you forcefully break into people's houses? Do you still have national laws in your eyes?"
Qin Shao laughed and said: "National law? Now the prince is the national law."
Then Qin Shao took out a token from his arms and said: "Mrs. Tian, the prince has an order to have Young Master Sheng leave the house quickly, otherwise I will order a search."
When Tian Hui heard this, his expression changed and he was waiting to speak.
Zeng Yun, the man in charge of the mansion, secretly called the man in charge of force in the mansion, and the two daughters Hua Zilan and Muyinaqi rushed over.
Seeing Qin Shao forcing Tian Hui, Yun'er angrily said: "You are a lackey of the East Palace, how dare you persecute my mistress? The prince's decree is great, how can it be greater than His Majesty's imperial edict? If you want to search the mansion, you have to invite the imperial edict school." "
Qin Shao's eyes lit up when he saw the three new beauties. They were all stunning beauties with their own characteristics, especially the woman who scolded him angrily. She was truly a rare beauty in the world.
Qin Shao saw so many beauties in front of him, he was so stunned that he couldn't come back to his senses. After a while, Qin Shao came back to his senses, swallowed secretly, still held up the token, and asked Yun'er:
"Who are you? How dare you stop me? Today, the Crown Prince oversees the country. His Royal Highness's decree is an imperial edict. Let Mr. Sheng come out and be a man. What's the point of hiding behind a woman?"
Yun'er sneered: "Listen up, I am Zeng Yun, the concubine of Young Master Sheng. My Young Master is practicing in seclusion in the mansion. It is indeed inconvenient to see guests. Please come back!"
When Qin Shao saw this, he understood. It seemed that the news that Young Master Sheng was not in the mansion was certain. If Young Master Sheng was here, how could he let the women in the family show up and come out to block him.
Qin Shao saw Mu Yi Naqi and Hua Zilan holding magic weapons and guessed that the two women were monks. They looked difficult to deal with, so he could only sneer and say:
"Okay, you just wait until His Highness the Crown Prince takes control of the situation in Qingyang, and you will have a good time."
After saying that, Qin Shao ordered an envoy to go out to the East Palace to deliver the message. He called his subordinates to block the door, waiting for major events in the city to be decided. What could Young Master Sheng do to these few women?
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Yun'er, Tian Hui, Muyinaqi and others changed slightly. Of course they knew that Young Master Sheng had been secretly admitted to the Tai Chi Palace, but the current situation made them worry about their husband's condition.
Among the girls, only Muyinaqi was not particularly worried about Gongzi Sheng's safety. She knew very well that Gongzi Sheng's current strength was not something that could be controlled by the people under the prince's command.
At this time, Qin Shao narrowed his eyes and secretly glanced at the girls. He had already secretly decided in his heart that when the rebellion was successful, he would capture the Tai Chi Palace and kill Young Master Sheng when he returned. The three daughters are not allowed to be presented to His Highness the Crown Prince for his enjoyment...
The next morning, the prince and his entourage stood on the Qingyang City Tower, looking at the tens of thousands of strong men who had been mobilized in the city, with bright armor and numerous swords and guns. Although the team was loose and scattered and not as good as the regular army, it seemed that at least this momentum was present. Still very inspiring.
Since the official announcement of the uprising last night, things have been progressing exceptionally smoothly. The generals of the arsenal defenders actually surrendered collectively after Qingyang ordered Cao Huan to speak out.
As for the East Palace, they could easily arm more than 30,000 troops with the help of the arsenal without harming anyone. Seeing the posture of the East Palace, most of the lieutenant army defenders guarding the gates of Qingyang also surrendered. It was a riot in the city, and the Lieutenant Army had no way to defend and stop it in advance. Qingyang City changed hands almost overnight, and basically no news was leaked. This is the popularity that the prince has accumulated by relying on his past appeal and long-term supervision of the country. , otherwise it would not be easy to succeed.
Many ministers in Qingyang City also had strong objections to His Majesty's obsession with cultivating immortals, but they just didn't show it. Seeing that the Prince was forced to raise troops, most of them sympathized with him.
Several incidents of civil and military officials breaking into the palace also made them doubt in their hearts whether something had really happened to the current emperor. This made the princelings take over the entire Qingyang City smoothly and cooperated with the prince's work.
Qin Shao came to the prince and reported: "Your Highness, I have led people to personally search the Changping Lord's residence. I dug almost three feet into the ground but could not find Mr. Sheng himself."
Hearing this, the prince tightened the hilt of his sword with his left hand and said bitterly: "As expected, as expected, Brother Sheng! I never thought, where else could you go? When I take over the Tai Chi Palace, I will definitely behead him with my own hands." class."
The prince asked again: "Since they want to abolish the elders and establish younger ones, Zhao Chu, the young master, should have colluded with the right minister Huo Zhenghang a long time ago. Invite Mr. Zhao to me, and I will ask him face to face why he acted like this." "
Qin Shao said with a strange look on his face: "Your Majesty the Crown Prince, I also led people to search the residence of Mr. Zhao just now. According to the servants of the Zhao Mansion, this old cunning man saw the turmoil in the city last night and took advantage of the chaos to run away with his family. Well, now the Zhao Mansion has long been empty."
The prince was shocked and said, "What are you doing? Zhao Chu actually ran away? Sure enough, it really is like that..."
Zhao Chu's obvious "guilt as a thief" made the prince more and more convinced that he should abolish the elder and establish the younger.
Qin Shao echoed: "Your Highness, if Zhao Cu, Huo Zheng, Lu Liang and others hadn't been plotting secretly, how could we have gotten into this mess now? If we find them in Taiji Palace, I will definitely kill this thief..."
Qin Shao, he suddenly remembered that he had just searched Gongzi Sheng's mansion. All the ladies in the mansion were beauties! I have to say that Young Master Sheng is really lucky.
The prince turned around and asked, "By the way, Qin Shao, is Mr. An Guojun's son Xiu still in the house?"
Qin Shao said: "An Guojun and his family are all in the house."
The prince said: "Well! It seems that the ninth brother didn't expect that I was going to start an uprising. He sent extra manpower to keep an eye on An Guojun and never let him walk out of the city."
Qin Shao said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I have already sent an extra thousand people to watch over Lord An Guo..."
Liu Yu stepped forward and reminded: "Your Highness, it is better not to delay things, otherwise things will change. Should we send troops immediately? The change of ownership of Qingyang City will probably not be hidden for long."
When the real thing came, the prince still showed hesitation, thinking of his eldest son who was sixteen years old, his youngest son who was ten years old, and several infant children. Who could know how difficult it would be for him to make this decision? One thing, but when he thought about the fate of the deposed princes and their families in the past, he shuddered. It was not only death now, but also death. He could only fight to the death to carve out a future.
Thinking of this, the prince shouted loudly to the tens of thousands of young people in the city: "You are all my subjects of the Jin Dynasty, and you will also be my subjects in the future. Your majesty has been killed by the traitors headed by the right prime minister Huo Zheng, and it has been kept secret to this day. Instead of mourning, you actually plotted to dethrone Gu's position as crown prince. It's intolerable, but it's intolerable. Now Gu raises the banner of righteousness and gathers the righteous soldiers. Follow me into the Taiji Palace, kill the rebels, and behead Huo Zheng and others. The person who beheads Lu Liang and Zhang Daoling will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. The person who beheads Young Master Sheng will be granted the title of Marquis within the Pass and will be rewarded with ten thousand gold coins. Now I am announcing that after you come back from killing the enemy with me, all of you will be promoted to the fifth rank and each will be rewarded with ten thousand gold coins... …”
When all the soldiers in the city heard that the reward was so generous, they almost had nothing to worry about after their success. They were all beaming with joy, their morale soared, and they roared:
"Long live His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...Long live..."
I don't know who raised the head, but the soldiers changed their tune and shouted: "Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty..."
Seeing the high morale of the people in the city and their firm eyes, the prince said to his left and right: "The hearts and minds of the people and the military can be used to achieve great things..."
The prince waved his hand, and the gates of Qingyang City were opened, and tens of thousands of soldiers rushed out. Then the prince, escorted by Qin Shao, Liu Yu and other cronies, got on the chariot and directed the army to rush towards the Taiji Palace.
It was only half an hour's journey from the large army to Taiji Palace. Taiji Palace would definitely not be able to react. By the time the soldiers from the North Camp arrived, the day lilies were already cold...
