"Yao Ji, the thieves are causing rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. The princes of Taiwan Province have elected me as a general to go south to quell the rebellion. Although the imperial edict from the palace has not arrived yet, it will definitely happen sooner or later. I can't wait for your majesty to issue the edict. The soldiers are very quick. Tonight, I am going to take people to Wu County at night. I have made arrangements for you, and Zhang Si will escort you to the East China Sea tomorrow..."
"Sending troops without an edict is very easy to be criticized! Husband, it won't be too late to wait until His Majesty officially issues an edict tomorrow before sending troops."
Xu Zongwen waved his hands repeatedly and explained: "Your Majesty previously rewarded me with a gold medal, which allows me to enter and exit the forbidden palace in Taiwan Province at will. He also gave me the right to be an envoy. I returned to Beijing from Qiantang and went to the palace to see your Majesty. Your Majesty did not take it back. I just use it now." Go up. Rumors stop with the wise. Once I send troops to defeat the rebellion of Sun En and the Tianshi Sect, Jiangdong will be stabilized and the people will be saved. Why should I be afraid of those rumors?"
"It turns out that my husband has already made up his mind. A real man has his ambitions in all directions. Husband, national affairs are the most important thing. These Yao Ji understand that, you can go with peace of mind!"
Xu Zongwen hugged his newlywed wife with his big hands, his eyes full of reluctance. Although Huan Xianrong was reasonable and considerate, the loss that disappeared in Huan Xianrong's eyes was captured by the observant Xu Zongwen.
No one can control the chaotic world. One day, I, Xu Zongwen, will personally end this chaotic world where human life is as cheap as a piece of grass and give the world a brilliant and powerful warrior!
Xu Zongwen gently held Huan Xianrong's shoulders, his eyes full of sincerity, and he slowly said: "Yao Ji, don't worry, I will leave as quickly as more than a month, or as slowly as half a year. When the overall situation in Jiangdong is decided, I will leave I wrote to the imperial court to ask me to return to Luoyang, and I will take you there with me. At that time, the two of us will not be separated day and night..."
"Dong dong... dong dong!" Just as Xu Zongwen and Huan Xianrong were chatting with each other, there was an untimely knock on the door outside the room, and soon Zhang San's voice came in: "General, everything is over. It’s ready to go!”
Xu Zongwen was unmoved and still looked at Huan Xianrong affectionately.
The moon under the sea is the moon in the sky, and the person in front of you is your sweetheart. What could be more precious than this moment?
"Ugh!" Huan Xianrong's almond-shaped eyes widened, and her cherry mouth was completely covered by Xu Zongwen!
Xu Zongwen's sudden attack made Huan Xianrong, who was already defenseless, immediately raise his hands and surrender, and soon he was immersed in Xu Zongwen's verbal offensive!
"Husband, husband!"
"General? General!"
When Zhang San broke into the room, Xu Zongwen and Huan Xianrong had already let go of each other when they heard the banging of the door. One stared at the other, and the other lowered his head shyly and didn't know where to look.
"General, Xiao Huangmen Hua Fuzi has arrived at the mansion and is anxious to see the general." Zhang San lowered his head. He knew what he should and should not see, and he kept to his duty.
Xu Zongwen asked: "Has your Majesty's edict to send troops arrived?"
Zhang San shook his head and replied: "Probably not. Hua Fuzi did not hold the edict in his hand, nor did he bring the ceremonial guard announcing the edict. He came in through the back door alone."
Xu Zongwen let out a sigh, said a short farewell to Huan Xianrong, comforted her a few words, and immediately followed Zhang San to see Hua Fuzi.
Seeing Xu Zongwen himself, Hua Fuzi immediately grabbed Xu Zongwen tightly, knelt down immediately, and burst into tears: "General! General, please save the Emperor of Jin Dynasty!"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Zongwen's pupils dilated several times, and he immediately asked Zhang San to close the door and asked Hua Fuzi what happened.
"General, you don't know. Two days ago, His Majesty had just appointed King Kuaiji to oversee the Chinese and foreign military affairs. King Kuaiji and the soldiers of the Sixth Battalion of the Forbidden Army suddenly broke into the palace without an edict, led people to occupy the Taiji Palace, sealed off Taiwan Province, and placed His Majesty under house arrest... …”
Hua Fuzi told the truth one after another about the cause and effect. Xu Zongwen was also shocked. He did not expect that the emperor's younger brother was so brave!
The governor of the Chinese and foreign military forces is an important duty. He can control the Chinese and foreign soldiers stationed inside and outside the capital. Now the 18th Battalion of the Forbidden Army has been reorganized into six battalions by Xu Zongwen, which means that the military power has returned to King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji!
He broke into the palace without an edict, controlled the province, imprisoned the emperor, and specialized in wielding power!
Xu Zongwen recalled that the King of Kuaiji killed Sun Tai, the national master, in the street. Could it be that the King of Kuaiji had been preparing to do evil from that time on?
The emperor was confused, how could he give all military power to Sima Daozi alone?
I don’t understand the simple truth that eggs cannot be put in the same basket. No wonder I have been ignored by Huan Wen and Xie An for so many years.
"What does Your Majesty want me to do?" Xu Zongwen opened the skylight and spoke clearly, getting straight to the point.
Hua Fuzi saw Xu Zongwen was filled with anger and looked like he wanted to be loyal to the country, so he immediately said bluntly: "My godfather and uncle have already made a plan. As long as the general finds someone, the rebellion of King Kuaiji will be solved without blood... "
Xu Zongwen suddenly realized that this was the case!
I have underestimated this uncle Wang Gong!
"You and Zhongguiren must protect His Majesty and prevent King Kuaiji from jumping over the wall and doing anything to harm His Majesty. I'll call on King Ma Qin to escort him!" Xu Zongwen ordered Zhang San to fetch the armor, and also ordered Liu Yu and a group of laid-off old men. The Forbidden Army assembled outside Taicheng and was on standby.
Since they followed Xu Zongwen south to control floods and build embankments, the old imperial guardsmen also received a lot of money and food. After a good year, all the complaints about Xu Zongwen's previous abolition were wiped out. Instead, they all felt grateful and admired Xu Zongwen. A good official who prays for the people.
Liu Yu is a veteran of the Forbidden Army. Although these troops have no weapons and low combat power, no one can underestimate this force once thousands of people gather at night!
"Come here, prepare your horses and get ready to go!" Xu Zongwen shouted when Hua Fuzi was about to leave. Wolf guards gathered from all directions and all fell at Xu Zongwen's feet. Hua Fuzi had to marvel at Xu Zongwen's strength in training!
Zhang, three and four were also fully dressed and were about to follow Xu Zongwen out of the house to Taicheng. Xu Zongwen suddenly put his hands behind his back, closed the door, and said nothing!
"Zijin, you heard it all." Xu Zongwen gently put the long sword on the wooden table, took off the heavy armor himself, and hung it high. At this time, from behind him, behind the screen full of ink landscapes Move your feet.
Guo Shang frowned slightly, "General, you and I have both made a mistake. I didn't expect that King Kuaiji's ambitions are so big!"
Xu Zongwen put down his face and looked worried about the country and the people, but at this time he smiled uncharacteristically: "There must be someone behind the scenes who is giving him advice, which has contributed to his prestige. Don't look at the fact that the emperor is already under his control." Well, in fact, he has stepped into the trap woven by the emperor without even realizing it!"
"The emperor is indeed very clever. He added fuel to the flames and allowed King Kuaiji to reveal his true identity, and then confirmed King Kuaiji's crime of treason. He took this opportunity to completely eradicate King Kuaiji's party. High, really high!"
Guo Shang was awakened by someone sent by Xu Zongwen in the middle of the night. He secretly lurked outside the indoor screen to eavesdrop on Hua Fuzi and Xu Zongwen's spies. He learned that such a big change had occurred in the court within a few days. His sleepy face had already been washed away by this scene. The drama of conspiracy was completely washed away!
Xu Zongwen hummed, knelt down, and then took out a secret letter from his sleeve and placed it on the wooden case.
Guo Shang asked: "The general put aside his pretense and agreed to send troops tonight. It must not be true, but just to reassure the emperor and Wang Gong, right?"
"The one who knows me is Guo Zijin!"
"Yes, you read this letter first, and then tell me what you think after reading it." Xu Zongwen raised the letter, and Guo Shang took a few steps forward to read it carefully at the seat at the bottom.
The time for a cup of tea passed quickly, and the secret letter, which was thousands of words long, was finally read by Guo Shang.
Xu Zongwen spoke first: "This letter was brought to me by someone sent by Secretary Cheng Wang Guobao when I went to Taiwan Province to attend a meeting during the day."
"The King of Kuaiji wants to win over the general to expand his power." Guo Sang put down the secret letter and met Xu Zongwen's eyes. A smile soon appeared on both of their faces!
