Looking at the respectful Chen Jingyu in front of him, Shangguan Changgong asked in a deep voice:
"What's happening around Yang Chongqing recently..."
When these words came out, Chen Jingyu was shocked. She didn't know why Shangguan Changgong suddenly asked about this. She considered her words in her heart and said:
"According to the latest report from the hidden stake, everything around Yang Chongqing is normal, and no unusual behavior was found!"
】
After hearing this answer, Shangguan Changgong slammed the table, picked up the autograph letter written by Yang Chongqing and said angrily:
"No special move? Abandoning Jinyang to attack Pingyang, isn't this an abnormal move?"
"What does your Supervision Department do for a living? Don't you know any news?"
Listening to Shangguan Changgong's series of angry roars, Chen Jingyu felt aggrieved and helpless. As the commander of the Supervision Department, he must have gotten some clues about Yang Chongqing's big move. He also thought about reporting these to Shangguan. Chang Gong reported.
However, when Shangguan Chief respectfully named Yang Chongqing the Grand Marshal of the Army, he said that he did not trust the people he hired and did not trust the people he doubted. He absolutely believed in Yang Chongqing and supported all Yang Chongqing's decisions in Yunbin.
And because Yang Chongqing had conflicts with the Supervision Department before, Shangguan Changgong also specifically warned Chen Jingyu, asking the Supervision Department not to interfere in Yang Chongqing's military decision-making, not to make small moves behind his back, and to hinder Yang Chongqing... ·······················
Therefore, although she got the news, after Chen Jingyu considered the pros and cons, she felt that even if she reported the news to Shangguan Changgong, Shangguan Changgong would probably support Yang Chongqing's decision, and then he would be a different person inside and outside.
Shangguan Changgong had previously blamed him for the assassination operation carried out by the Fengwu Army in Guanzhong. If Shangguan Changgong thought that he was behind Yang Chongqing's actions in this matter, Shangguan Changgong would have an even worse impression of him. It’s even more troublesome!
Although Shangguan Changgong also claimed to the outside world that Shangguan Hongyuan, the chief assistant, was still alive, but he was recuperating at home and could not see guests.
However, because Shangguan Hongyuan has not appeared in public for a long time, and even several of his close confidants are not allowed to visit Shangguan Hongyuan, there is no news in the court that Shangguan Hongyuan has passed away, and Shangguan Changgong is keeping the funeral secret. It also spread like wildfire.
Although more and more people began to suspect that Shangguan Hongyuan had passed away, due to the arrangements made by Shangguan Hongyuan to stay while he was still alive, and the buffer time that Shangguan Changgong bought for Shangguan Changgong by not announcing the funeral, Shangguan Changgong currently controlled Luoan. The court is relatively stable, and overall there is not much turmoil!
Therefore, after realizing that Shangguan Changgong had monopolized power and had no good impression of the Supervision Department and herself, Chen Jingyu was even more cautious in her warning to him... ·········
Under such circumstances, Chen Jingyu finally decided not to report the news to Shangguan Changgong, in order to avoid Shangguan Changgong's misunderstanding that she was behind Yang Chongqing's affairs.
However, now looking at the furious Shangguan Changgong, Chen Jingyu realized that she had made a huge mistake!
Shangguan Changgong is a suspicious person like his father Shangguan Hongyuan. He does not trust Yang Chongqing as much as he thought!
Although she felt aggrieved at this time and wanted to explain to Shangguan Gong that it was because of your warning that I didn't report the matter to you, but feeling Shangguan Changgong's anger, Chen Jingyu could only swallow the words in her heart and bow her head to admit her mistake!
After being scolded by Shangguan Changgong, Chen Jingyu saw that Shangguan Changgong's anger gradually subsided. She hesitated and said:
"When Marshal Yang was still in Luo'an, our Supervision Department once discovered that he had met Murong Fan!"
Upon hearing the word "Murong", Shangguan Changgong's eyes couldn't help but flicker, and then he thought for a while and asked:
"Murong Fan is Murong Lun's nephew who is known for his erudition, strong memory, and wealth of knowledge? I heard that he was seriously injured by the Imperial Army and is bedridden and about to die? Why is he still alive now!"
Chen Jingyu nodded, and then said again:
"This is Murong Fan. Previously, the Chief Assistant ordered the Murong family to be surrounded. Murong Fan and other young talents from the Murong family were arranged to escape by the Murong family. However, on the way to escape, they were captured by the Forbidden Army. Murong Fan stood up to resist and was severely beaten by the Forbidden Army. Beaten..."
"But later Murong Lun asked the imperial doctor to treat him. In addition, this guy is also a good fortune teller, so he really came back to life!"
Hearing this, Shangguan Changgong couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, looked deeply at Chen Jingyu, and then asked again:
"Why is he meeting Yang Chongqing?"
Hearing this, Chen Jingyu hesitated for a moment and pretended to be embarrassed and said:
"Shang Shu Murong and Marshal Yang are both important ministers of the imperial court and hold humble positions..."
After listening to Chen Jingyu's words, Shangguan Changgong snorted and said in a deep voice:
"Both of them are important officials of the imperial court, so you don't dare to investigate?"
"Chen Jingyu, don't forget, who gave you everything you have now!"
"My father can give you everything now, and I can take it all back now!"
Chen Jingyu was overjoyed when he heard that, but on the surface he still pretended to be frightened and knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said:
"Jingyu is a dog from the Shangguan family. I will bite whoever you ask me to bite, Lord Shangshu. Please don't worry, I will check everything for you!"
After receiving Chen Jingyu's answer, Shangguan Changgong nodded and said:
"Do not disappoint me!"
"I understand the humble position!"
After beating Chen Jingyu, Shangguan Changgong asked Chen Jingyu to leave. After leaving Shangguan Changgong's mansion, Chen Jingyu showed a relieved smile on his face... ·················
After serving the Shangguan family for so many years, Chen Jingyu has long understood the virtues of the Shangguan family. He never expected Shangguan Changgong to take notice of him. Over the years, he has been working hard as a cow and a horse, and has done countless things for the Shangguan family. For the sake of dirty work and hard work, it can help him start well and end well.
Chen Jingyu, the commander of the Supervision Department, although on the surface he seems to be very prosperous and can catch anyone he wants, in fact, as he just said, he is a dog raised by the Shangguan family, and he will bite whoever the Shangguan family asks him to bite. .
As the old saying goes, when the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs are cooked. The meaning of Chen Jingyu's life is to bite people for the Shangguan family. Since Shangguan Changgong came to power, he has fully relied on Yang Chongqing in the military, and Politically, he and Murong Lun almost formed a political alliance, and the two of them worked together to stabilize the political situation of the Luo'an court.
Although this was generally beneficial to the Luo'an court, it also made Chen Jingyu feel a sense of crisis.
In recent years, because Shangguan Hongyuan is also a suspicious person, and his status with the Supervision Department is very special, so in order to prevent Shangguan Hongyuan from feeling that he is too close to Shangguan Changgong,
Therefore, for a long time, Chen Jingyu deliberately kept a distance from Shangguan Changgong, and intentionally handled some matters related to Shangguan Changgong impartially.
Even though Shangguan Changgong said hello, he did not give Shangguan Changgong face, making Shangguan Hongyuan think that he was only loyal to him... ········
Although this avoided Shangguan Hongyuan's misunderstanding, it also offended Shangguan Changgong. Therefore, after Shangguan Changgong came to power, Chen Jingyu also took the initiative to plead guilty and move closer to him.
Although Shangguan Changgong ostensibly forgives Chen Jingyu, Chen Jingyu also understands that Shangguan Changgong has not really forgiven him. Now he just hopes that he and the Supervision Department will stabilize the situation for him.
However, under the political alliance of Shangguan Changgong and Murong Lun, the situation in the Luo'an court gradually stabilized, so Chen Jingyu's role declined. This also made Chen Jingyu feel a sense of crisis and worried that Shangguan Changgong would liquidate him!
Therefore, after realizing that Shangguan Changgong did not trust Yang Chongqing that much, Chen Jingyu deliberately revealed the news of the meeting and contact between Murong Fan and Yang Chongqing to Shangguan Changgong.
Murong Fan is just an insignificant little miscellaneous fish. The important thing is that he has an uncle named Murong Lun!
But now Shangguan Changgong is most worried about the alliance between Murong Lun and Yang Chongqing. One of these two people has a strong influence in the court, and the other has a huge appeal in the army. Once the two people join forces, it will be completely Can overthrow the rule of Shangguan Changgong!
Therefore, Chen Jingyu deliberately led Shangguan Changgong to think in this regard. The more Shangguan Changgong was afraid and worried, the more he would rely on Chen Jingyu and the Supervision Department. In this way, Chen Jingyu would have more existence value and the more stable his status would be. Worry about being liquidated...

···································
Fifteen days later, on March 25, on the Huangfeng Ridge outside Pingyang City, thousands of Fengwu Army cavalry were attacking the Forbidden Army's camp. The shouts of killing and the roar of artillery fire were endless.
Seeing the Imperial Army on Huangfengling repelling his own attack once again, Xun Ke, as the commander of the Third Army, was extremely livid.
Thirteen days ago, when faced with the sudden attack on Yang Chongqing's headquarters and tens of thousands of forbidden troops appearing from Weiguan, Xun Ke couldn't figure out the situation and didn't understand why Yang Chongqing didn't rush to Jinyang to help, but came to Pingyang to concentrate his forces to annihilate them. Himself, but he also made a choice quickly!
The Third Division is relatively special in the Fengwu Army's combat sequence. Because the previous commander Guo Zhiping was good at cavalry combat, Ye Mingsheng concentrated on developing the cavalry of the Third Division and gave the Third Division Fengwu. The army's unique cavalry scale of 10,000 people!
Although Guo Zhiping later transferred from the Third Division, these tens of thousands of cavalry remained in the Third Division!
This time, the reason why Yuan Song asked Xun Ke to lead the third division to garrison Pingyang was, on the one hand, to guard Pingyang and prevent the imperial army from entering Yun from Pingyang and rushing to Jinyang. On the other hand, he also planned to wait for Yang Chongqing to lead his troops to rush to Jinyang. , let the cavalry of the Third Division go to Yang Chongqing's retreat...
However, no one expected that Yang Chongqing did not follow the routine. He voluntarily abandoned Jinyang and wanted to concentrate all his forces to annihilate the third division.
Such a huge change immediately put the Third Division in danger. As a famous wise general in the Fengwu Army, Xunke immediately realized the weakness of the cavalry's inability to defend the city, so he immediately assigned the task of guarding Pingyang. More than 10,000 infantry troops were handed over to the Third Division.
Xun Ke himself led the cavalry of the third division and broke out of the enemy's blockade before the enemy was completely surrounded.
Xun Ke thought of using the mobility of the cavalry to interfere with the Forbidden Army's attack on Pingyang from outside. However, the hilly terrain around Pingyang restricted their performance.
And because they were in a hurry when they left Pingyang, Xun Ke and the others did not carry too many artillery. Therefore, facing the Forbidden Army encamping on the hilltop, Xun Ke's troops did not have many options. This also caused them to be unable to conquer Huang Maple Ridge in front of them. The main force of the Forbidden Army, which threatened Yang Chongqing, attacked Pingyang.
Just when Xun Ke made up his mind to organize a new round of offensive and must capture Huangfengling before dark, the Imperial Army on Huangfengling erupted into a victory-like carnival.
Seeing this scene, Xun Ke also became confused, but soon a subordinate came over to inform him in a low voice.
"Commander Xun, the enemy has captured Pingyang..."
······························
······························
On March 27, seventeen days after the Fengwu Army launched an attack on Jinyang, the city gate of Jinyang was finally blasted open by the Fengwu Army's heavy artillery.
An hour later, surrounded by the generals of the Fengwu Army, Yuan Song, riding on a tall horse, slowly walked into Jinyang City.
General Ye Tao of the Eighth Division of the Fengwu Army, who was the first to lead his troops into the city at the city gate, was also standing at the city gate waiting for Yuan Song to appear. When he saw Yuan Song, he immediately reported excitedly:
"Report to Commander-in-Chief Yuan, our army is clearing out the remnants of Yun Bing's army in the city, and this thief Wang Muzhi set himself on fire at home!"
"But it is said that Wang Mu wrote a letter in blood a few days ago. Before breaking the city, Wang Muzhi arranged for his men to escape. He wanted to send this academic letter to Luo'an and hand it over to Shangguan Hongyuan!"
"Flying Tiger Camp is in pursuit and will recover this blood letter as soon as possible..."
After hearing this, Yuan Song became interested and immediately asked:
"Blood letter? What does it have to do with?"
(This is a simple foreshadowing. I don’t know if anyone can see it. I will speed up the progress next!)
