He Ruobi's Song Dynasty Duke's Mansion is located in Longzhengfang, west of the imperial city, next to Shunyi Gate, the west gate of the imperial city.
The layout of Daxing City is centered on the Zhuque Gate in the south of the imperial city, with Daxi Street on the left and Dadong Street on the right. The inner squares to the north of these two streets are very large, with a total of twenty-four squares, occupying It takes up one-fifth of the area of the capital, because the people living here are all awesome people.
Song Guogong's Mansion was given by Yang Jian at that time, and its area was comparable to Yang Su's Yue Gong's Mansion. Among He Ruobi's concubines, there was also an old Princess Chen, who was Chen Shubao's sister.
At that time, four of Chen Shubao's sisters were kidnapped to the capital. Two went to Yang Jian, namely Mrs. Xuanhua and Mrs. Hongzheng. One went to Yang Su, the one who reunited. The last one went to He Ruobi and gave birth to a son to He Ruobi. He Ruohuaining.
Chen Shuyi didn't know about He Ruobi's affairs, but Yang Ming could take some precautions. After all, his father's decree did not say how to deal with the female papers.
As the saying goes, the night is dark and the wind is high, so killing He Ruobi can only be done at night.
Yu Wenshiji had Yang Ming's troop deployment order in his hand, so he took over Zuo Xiaowei's five thousand troops and temporarily led Zuo Xiaowei general Shi Xiang.
But Shi Xiang didn't take Yuwen Shiji seriously at all.
Because Shi Xiang is the queen of generals, his history is much more impressive than Shi Wansui's.
His father, Shi Ning, was a hussar general in the Western Wei Dynasty and a young Situ in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. His four sons all had titles. Among them, the eldest son married the daughter of Yuwentai, the second-generation leader of the Guanlong Group. Yuwentai was also the actual leader of the Guanlong Group. Founder.
As for the first-generation leader He Bayue, his actual influence was far less than that of Yuwentai, and he was killed by Gao Huan as a rift.
Shi Ning also had a daughter named Shi Shigui, who married Wei Xiaokuan's son Wei Shou and gave birth to three sons and two daughters to Wei Shou, the youngest of whom was named Wei Ying.
In other words, Shi Xiang is the biological uncle of Crown Princess Wei Ying.
"When will we start?" As the main participant, Shi Xiang knew the inside story, but the people below him did not know.
Because He Ruobi's prestige in the military was too high, some soldiers were unwilling to do this.
Prestige is accumulated bit by bit. Yuwenshiji cannot lead Shi Xiang because of insufficient prestige. His father Yuwenshu would be about the same.
"Mr. Yangcheng, wait a moment, don't be impatient," Yu Wenshiji said in a very polite tone.
Shi Xiang frowned and said, "It's already late. Don't delay this important matter. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to His Highness the King of Qin."
"Don't worry, it's almost over. The thief stayed up too late at night. He will wait until everyone in his house is asleep before taking action," Yuwenshi said.
Their five thousand soldiers and horses were hiding in the Shunyi Gate of the imperial city. Outside the gate was Longzhengfang, where the Duke of Song Dynasty was located.
People from Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Yushitai are also waiting at the government office, ready to go out at any time. After Yu Wenshi and the Duke of Song Dynasty are defeated, they will go in for a formality, read out the imperial edict, convict He Ruobi, and then Executed on the spot.
People like He Ruobi must be killed quickly, otherwise there will be endless trouble.
Probably when the ugly time was approaching, someone outside the city gate raised a torch and made a gesture. Seeing this, Yu Wenshi nodded and said:
"Okay, let's do it."
He took the lead in mounting his horse and shouted to the city gate guards: "Open the door quickly."
But no one paid him any attention. Yu Wenshiji turned his head in astonishment and saw Shi Xiang mount his horse in a leisurely manner and waved to the guards, who then went to open the door.
Shi Xiang rode his horse up to Yu Wenshi and patted the latter's shoulder and said: "There are military rules in the army. I recognize the King of Qin's troop deployment order, but my sons and gentlemen will not recognize you."
】
After saying that, Shi Xiang clamped his horse's belly and shouted: "Follow me, gentlemen."
In an instant, a mighty force of five thousand elites poured out of the city gate. The forward troops directly used logs to knock open the gate of Longzhengfang, frightening the Wu Houwei on duty inside.
You can't say hello in advance in Lifang, because there must be someone from He Ruobi here.
"We are ordered to arrest thieves. You must evacuate this place as soon as possible. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."
In order to prevent the Wu Houwei in the village from tipping off He Ruobi, these people must be dismissed immediately.
But after all, something slipped through the net. As soon as the army arrived at Song Guogong's mansion, they heard an urgent sound of gongs inside.
"Break the door!" Shi Xiang immediately ordered.
Dozens of people hugged a thick log and began to rush towards the gate.
At this time, arrows had been shot all over the house. Fortunately, the alley outside the house was not wide. After the arrows missed the courtyard wall, they could not fall. Most of them fell on the opposite wall. Even so, the guards outside were frightened. Light, quickly raise your shield.
"We are ordered to apprehend the rebel He Ruobi. Those who surrender will not be killed!" Someone on Shi Xiang's side had already started shouting into the mansion.
But Shi Xiang also knew in his heart that this kind of shouting was useless. He Ruobi's troops would not listen at all. They would only protect the Lord to the death.
"Who is here? Dare to make false accusations against the Duke?" Someone in the courtyard shouted outside: "The Duke of Song is loyal to Your Majesty. The soldiers must not be deceived by thieves."
After all, He Ruobi's prestige was too high, and the guards in the alley also turned their attention to the general.
Shi Xiang took out the imperial edict from his arms, held it up high and said: "Zuo Xiao, Wei Shi Xiang, has been ordered to arrest thieves. This is the edict. Please open the door quickly."
"Haha... Do you, Shi Xiang, have the qualifications to surround my residence?" He Ruobi's loud voice came: "The King of Qin is not around, so you are the rebels."
Shi Xiang sneered and said, "The order from King Qin is here. Don't you want Duke Song to take a look?"
"The warrant can be forged. Only when the King of Qin comes in person will I open the door," He Ruobi said.
Just as they were quarreling, the gate of the mansion had been knocked open. In an instant, arrows were fired from the mansion, and the guards who hit the city gate were hit by arrows.
In fact, it would save a lot of trouble if there was a wall ladder, but the wall ladder is under the management of Weiwei Temple and Yang Ming cannot approve it.
Because of the armory of Weiwei Temple, Yang Ming was not qualified to approve it. There were a large amount of ordnance stored in Weiwei Temple. Yang Guang did not give his son this authority. He was afraid that his son would go to heaven if he got this authority.
Opening Weiwei Temple privately is tantamount to rebellion.
On Yang Ming's side, he was quietly waiting for the results in the palace office. Shi Wansui was also there, and of course Shi Wanbao, who was the Sima of Prince Qin's palace, was also there.
In the hall, the lights were brightly lit, and battle reports came in from time to time. Shi Xiang had successfully entered the house, and He Ruobi resisted with all his strength. A close fight began between the two sides.
Everyone in the hall was also very sad, because everyone thought that a hero like He Ruobi would definitely have a good death, but they did not expect that he would be convicted and sentenced to death by the emperor without any warning.
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Highness is right not to come forward. Song Guogong's prestige in the army is too high, and His Highness cannot get even a little bit of the reputation of killing heroes."
Yuan Wendu also sighed: "The important officials of the founding emperor may be demoted or killed. We should take precautions and make preparations in advance."
At this time, Shi Wansui glanced at Yuan Wendu, then looked at Yang Ming and said with a smile:
"Your people dare to say anything."
Yang Ming smiled and said: "In my place, every word that everyone says will not be spread."
Shi Wansui smiled and nodded: "This is the best. I don't know how Chang Suncheng and the others are doing, whether it's going well."
Yang Ming frowned and said, "I asked the master to come here because I hope that if Changsun and the others are hindered in their progress, the master can come forward to help appease the right guard."
"Okay," Shi Wansui nodded and said, "There are many people on the right guard who followed me back then, so my words have some effect."
At this time, guards came to report that Shi Xiang's men suffered heavy casualties and were unable to enter the inner courtyard for a while.
"With five thousand elites attacking the defenseless two thousand troops, can't they get in?" Shi Wanbao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Others were also quite surprised, but Long Live Yang Mingshi was not surprised at all, and you didn’t even look at who was sitting inside.
After his death, he entered the Wu Temple. In the battle to destroy Chen, even though it was Han Qinhu who attacked Jiankang first, the most powerful vanguard army was led by He Ruobi. The main force of Chen Chen was also destroyed by He Ruobi. Otherwise, why was he the one making fun of Xiao Mohe and not others?
Because others are not qualified.
"What should we do? Do we need to allocate some more temporarily?" Shi Wansui asked.
Yang Ming shook his head: "The other guards did not say hello in advance. The temporary call will probably take a long time. Once it is delayed until dawn, it will inevitably affect the public opinion in the capital."
With that said, Yang Ming said to the messenger: "Tell Yuwen Shiji that it must be captured before dawn, otherwise I will only blame him."
In Yang Ming's opinion, five thousand versus two thousand would definitely be captured, but the strength of the two generals was so far apart that it would take quite a while.
What he was really worried about was a mutiny by the right guard, and that would be a big deal.
Near dawn, Yang Ming finally received the good news. He Ruobi was captured alive. The third division was convicting and would kill at Mao Shi.
He would not go there to clean up the mess until after ten hours.
The right guard has seven camps in the Jingzhao area. The main camp has 8,000 soldiers and horses, and the others vary.
Chang Suncheng had a higher prestige in the army than Qu Tutong, so he was responsible for taking over the main camp, and the rest went to Qu Tutong.
But the real result is that the main camp has not been taken down, and the camp gate has been closed to start a confrontation with Chang Suncheng's 5,000 soldiers and horses.
The commander of the camp, Wang Yue, threatened that he would not open the camp gate until he saw the King of Qin and the Duke of Song.
So Shi Wansui was ordered to take over the task in person, taking his own troops with him.
With Shi Wansui's face and Zhang Suncheng's words, things should be stable. In fact, Yang Ming didn't want Shi Wansui to come forward unless he had no choice. He didn't want to make enemies for Shi Wansui, but he didn't want the right guard to mutiny.
The common people's rebellion and the military's rebellion are two different things. The latter is very lethal.
In the Song Dynasty Duke's Mansion, the imperial guards who fought bloody battles for half the night made way for Yang Ming and his men to finally arrive.
There were already cries in the backyard. Thousands of women were wailing in sorrow. He Ruobi's children were pushed to the ground and trampled under their feet by the guards.
The corpse of a famous general fell in the grass under a pine and cypress, and the blood under his body was stained red.
Yu Wenshi was also stabbed on the shoulder. After being bandaged, he seemed to want to vent his anger. He took a spear and stabbed He Ruobi's body.
"No!" Yang Wang of Dali Temple quickly stopped him, but Shiji ignored him.
"The dead man is the most important, what are you doing?" Yang Wang was obviously angry. He stepped forward, took away the spear, and threw it aside.
Shi Xiang also looked at Yuwen Shiji with a gloomy face, feeling disdainful of his behavior.
This scene happened to be seen by Yang Ming.
When everyone saw Yang Ming coming in, they all got out of the way.
"Shi Wanbao," Yang Ming said.
Shi Wanbao hurriedly stepped forward: "The humble post is here."
Yang Ming said calmly: "If a scholar is humiliated and the corpse of a hero is found, he will be punished with twenty lashes and will be executed immediately."
Yuwenshi and Tongkong shrink...
