In the evening, Miao and Liu went to a folk house outside the imperial city In order not to attract attention, they always separate. Today, Miao Fu went in alone
Miao Fu just entered the door, counselor Zhang Shu lowered his voice: "the LORD sent someone."
Miao Fu hurried to the secret room to see the woman who was still veiled. They should all be called "female envoys"
The woman was bossy and arrogant: "how is the situation today?"
"Please also ask the female envoy to report to the Lord. Nothing happened today. According to the deployment, my family has won over all the generals, called them back to the court and deprived them of military power. In addition, Yue Peng took his wife into the palace and offered to let her husband surrender military power..."
The woman frowned and thought, "where are the flowers now?"
"She went to persuade Yue Pengju and left her son as a hostage in the palace. I don't think she dared to have two hearts..."
The woman didn't say anything for a moment before she said, "wait and step down. In the future, you will be indispensable to the grand master."
"Thank you, Lord."
As soon as Miao Fu left, the secret room closed, and the female envoy pulled off her veil. It was Wang Junhua. She immediately said, "young master, what do you think?"
The handsome young master in white robes sat on the broad Taishi chair and straightened up: "master Miao is confused."
"Hua Rong has left her son. What's your worry, childe?"
His face was full of anger: "Wen longer is the son of Lu Deng. Even if Yue Peng raises the issue, how can Miao and Liu threaten him?"
Wang Junhua was anxious. She hated Hua rongben very much and immediately said, "Miao and Liu didn't know about it, and it's no wonder they did. In that case, it's better to stop Hua rongben immediately."
He shook his head, lost in thought Yue Pengju entered Beijing with only a thousand troops in his hand, and it was too late to summon the old Ministry What needs to be prevented most is the army of Han Zhongliang, Liu Guang and Zhang Jun However, what is Hua Rong's intention to enter the palace at this most dangerous time? Even in order to appease Miao Liu, Lu Wenlong was left in the palace
Wang Junhua is bent on taking this opportunity to get rid of Hua Rong. No matter whether she is harmful or not, she can't let go, Hastily said, "Hua Rong is really ridiculous. I'm afraid that for Zhao Deji, even her son's life can't be taken care of. Anyway, she's not her own child. I'm afraid that the child will become a pawn for her to invite favors and perform meritorious deeds. Such a poisonous woman is really rare in the world. Childe, you must never be kind to women. If you are soft hearted for a moment, you will let Hua Rong destroy great things. You'd rather kill by mistake than let it go, in case Hua Rong leaks the wind..."
He was also very angry about Hua Rong's move. If it were her own son, how could she be so? No matter how big or small her harm is, she must always take precautions He turned to the bodyguard beside him, "you immediately made Hua Rong stop. If Yue Pengju really handed over his military power and withdrew from the court as he said, he would release her husband, wife and son..."
Wang Junhua immediately asked, "what if Yue Pengju doesn't hand over his military power?"
He frowned and made a gesture
Wang Junhua didn't dare to ask again. He knew that "childe" didn't like others in everything, especially his subordinates were too ultra vires She was dead set on the "childe" and never dared to disobey him a little. Seeing this, she immediately kept silent, but secretly pleased that as long as the flowers dissolved in her hands, there was always a way to torture her She said in her heart, "Hua Rong, Hua Rong, this time, I want to export my black gas well, and see how long you can be arrogant..."
As soon as his wife left, Yue Pengju immediately began to deploy his troops In addition to the 1000 troops he brought to Beijing, he also contacted the troops scattered here under the former Veteran General Zongze in the Pingjiang area As soon as Zongze died, a troop was broken up and merged by duchong Du Chong was mean and ungrateful, and he was quite taboo to Zongze, so he naturally wantonly weakened his cronies After several expeditions, the team were all dead forwards and cannon fodder After a battle in which the enemy was outnumbered, Du Chong, on the pretext of defeat, heavily blamed the troops and deducted their pay Some people refused to accept it, so they took advantage of the chaos to flee
Yue Peng came back this time. Although he only contacted 500 old men, all of them had followed him in the battle to defeat Zonghan. They were all excited and their military capacity was very magnificent When the two armies merged, Yue Pengju only took these 1500 troops to deploy defense along the river
Busy during the day distracted his attention. At night, he was tired and just dormant, but Yue Pengju couldn't rest day and night When his wife and son enter the palace, they don't know what the situation is, especially his wife, who is in great danger He spent more than a year with his wife day and night, never leaving for a moment, and habitually hugged her to sleep every night. Now when he stretched out his hand, his arms were empty and sleepless
He was as jealous as a rabbit. He couldn't stay this day any longer. However, how could he dare to leave alone when he was in the army? Otherwise, where would he put those loyal people who had worked hard to join the army and make contributions to the king?
He counted the days. It was five days since his wife left, but there was no news at all. He was so anxious that his mouth would blister. He just thought that if there was no more information, he would have to go back at night and have a look in person
After he convened the military meeting, he was pacing outside the door. The bodyguard came and said, "Lord Yue, there is a visitor."
"Please."
When he looked, he saw a man in Confucian robes, shaped like a scholar He was stunned and Fang said, "masu, is it you?"
Ma Su nodded, "it's me."
The two sat down. Before Yue Peng asked, Ma Suxian said, "this time, I'm not ordered by the king, but on my own."
"How about Mr. Ma?"
Ma Su looked a little gloomy: "Lord Yue must not know my life experience. My ancestors were han'er of the Liao state. My grandfather accumulated senior officials because of his talent and family resources. But because of accidents, his family was broken and disappeared. When he was in exile, he was accidentally rescued by King Qin, so he hid his name and became a bandit."
Yue Pengju always saw that he was unusual, and although he followed King Qin, he was by no means ordinary and reckless, so he nodded and listened to him quietly
"This time, I followed the king to go to Beijing to steal Ganoderma lucidum. After returning, I stayed in the capital. It was because the king was worried about Mrs. Yue's illness, afraid of any accident. It happened that the country was in trouble, and the mutiny suddenly occurred. I always knew that there were 8000 soldiers from the Western Liao Dynasty in the Miao Fu army, including my old friend Zhang Wei. His original name was Yelu, and his Han name, which was obtained only after he fell to the Song Dynasty, was also one of the Miao Fu's advisers. I can go to inquire on behalf of him."
Yue Peng was overjoyed. He was worried about his wife's misfortune and couldn't get any news. Now Ma Su volunteered to go, which was really overjoyed: "it's so good. But if you want to go, you need a decent identity."
"Please try to do it for me, Mr. Yue."
"I'm going to Zhenjiang business tomorrow to invite LV Shuxiang. I might as well take you with me to recommend on the spot."
"Thank you, Lord Yue."
Yue Pengju saluted in awe: "Mr. Ma, you're welcome. This trip is a bad one, and you have to take care." He knew that Ma Su was more or less instructed by King Qin. If it weren't for his wife, he wouldn't have taken the risk. But since Ma Su said that he went there voluntarily, he didn't say anything, but secretly thanked himself
Ma Su also bowed back: "I've long heard that Lord Yue is respectful to the virtuous and the corporal, and respects the Confucian scholars. Now at first sight, it's worthy of its reputation." In the battle of the fourth Prince's mansion in Yanjing, he was rescued by Yue Pengju desperately. As soon as he saw it today, he had not yet talked about being an envoy. Yue Pengju called it "Sir" first, and he admired himself when he saw Yue Peng holding the event. He secretly said that he was willing to work for him even if it was not the king's advice
On this day, Lu Yihao, the prime minister, convened Han Zhongliang, Zhang Jun and others to discuss matters in Zhenjiang As a literary minister, he maintained his customary sense of superiority over the generals in this dynasty. The generals saluted him, but he just waved his hand and sat in the middle
He cleared his throat and was about to speak. When Xin Yongzong stumbled in, he didn't even have time to salute, so he shouted, "it's bad, Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan mutiny..."
Everyone was stunned Xin Yongzong panted to inform Wang Yuan of his murder Zhang Jun is Wang Yuan's son. Han Zhongliang has been trusted and valued by Wang Yuan since he joined the army. Hearing the news of Wang Yuan's death, both of them burst into tears
LV Yihao calmed down. At this time, the guards sent the mailbox. It was the order issued by the Empress Dowager who was kidnapped. One of them was the dismissal of the main officials of the court, as well as the reward and promotion of Zhang Jun and others, with a brief report of Wang Yuan's murder attached
Lu Yihao saw it and felt that the matter was not trivial, but he still maintained the dignity and calmness of the prime minister, and immediately looked at Zhang Jun: "you are closest to the capital, what countermeasures do you have for the second murderer of Miao and Liu?"
Zhang Jun's face showed embarrassment: "there are only 8000 officers, but the two murderers have more than 30000 people, I'm afraid they are not enemies. And the two murderers have 8000 Liao troops, which are really capable of fighting." Under the account of Miao Fu, there were 8000 soldiers from the Liao people at that time, and their combat effectiveness was very strong
Lu Yihao looked at Han Zhongliang again. Han Zhongliang encountered the Jin army and was defeated once. This time, he collected the old Department, and there were only 2000 people under it. He was very straightforward: "the lower official must be crushed to pieces to rescue the humiliation of his father."
Lu Yihao pondered: "now among the armies on the river, Liu Guang is the most powerful. If he sends troops together, what do you think is the odds of victory?"
Han Zhongliang and Zhang Jun are both Wang Yuan's trusted generals, and their relationship is extraordinary. Moreover, they have formed a family of children and daughters However, Liu Guang and Wang Yuan came from two factions to compete with each other So, it's really difficult to work together
Seeing that the matter was not trivial, Lu Yihao calmly said, "you two can prepare for defense first."
The two retreated. That night, LV Yihao tossed and turned. It was almost dawn, and he was about to call for a response. He heard the flying horse running. It was the voice of the bodyguard: "Lv Xianggong, Yue Peng reported..."
Lu Yihao was overjoyed and immediately said, "please come in."
The prime minister summoned the generals in his bedroom for the first time in his life, which was also a sign of closeness
Without waiting for Yue Peng to hold the ceremony, Lu Yihao immediately said, "when Yue Xuanfu returned to Beijing, his family was just out, and it was too late to meet each other. Nowadays, friends in need of the country must integrate civil and military affairs to help achieve great things."
Yue Peng was very relieved to see that his eyes were full of blood. He knew that he must be working hard After they saw the ceremony, they had to report the arrival of Zhang Jun and Han Zhongliang
Lu Yihao excitedly pulled the three people: "you three are here, why don't you worry about big things."
It was the first time for the two of them to meet Yue Pengju Fang. The two of them were ten or twenty years older than Yue Pengju. Seeing the legendary famous general, Zhang Jun was a little surprised. Zhang Jun didn't think so, but Han Zhongliang laughed, "yesterday, I said to myself that it was difficult for Zhang Qi and I to applaud. If Yue Wu joined today, great things will be achieved."
Han Zhongliang ranked fifth in Han Dynasty. He called Zhang Jun and Yue Pengju by ranking, just to show his closeness
Yue Pengju was very respectful to the two senior generals and answered
Zhang Jun immediately said, "my family is willing to divide 2000 soldiers and horses with Han Wu."
Although he made friends with Han Zhongliang, he didn't want to rush forward easily at this moment, so he would rather give Han Zhongliang 2000 troops and horses to be the pioneer. In this way, Han Zhongliang had 4000 troops and horses
However, Yue Pengju's army was in Xiangyang, and the collection of the old army was less than 2000. Zhang Jun naturally didn't want to divide his troops to him. Yue Pengju didn't ask for it, so he said, "fortunately, two Taiwei were behind it, so Yue Pengju might as well be a pioneer."
Hearing that he took the initiative to be the pioneer, the two were overjoyed and immediately said, "yes, it will be hard for Yue Wu."
Just as he was speaking, a petty official reported, "a gold lettered sign was handed to the words in front of the emperor."
The crowd saluted immediately, and saw the master of the passing shop come in with a gold medal The "gold medal" in the Song Dynasty is not very misunderstood. It is a card made of gold, but a vermilion painted card, which is engraved with the eight characters of "words before the emperor, do not enter the shop" in gold. The emergency package for delivering packages is usually a bamboo tube or a leather tube to avoid damage In order to ensure the order of documents, the number of gold lettered plates is generally sorted according to the thousand character text, because there is no duplicate text in the thousand character text
