Hearing Shen Shixing ask, Lin Yanchao also had a plan in his heart, but if he continued to talk about it, he would be suspicious of being taunted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

So Lin Yanchao said: "How dare the student say this little bit of shallowness, if you are a talent, the teacher should not laugh." “

Shen Shixing said with a smile: "Why do you laugh, your analysis is penetrating." “

While speaking, the sedan chair was carried to the left door of Chang'an. The left gate of Chang'an is the path for officials to return to the government after retreating, and outside the door is the official office of several major yamen.

At this moment, seeing that the palace gate was closed, the forbidden army in the palace was stationed on the ground as if it were a great enemy, and when they saw the old palanquin of the pavilion, they knelt beside the road together.

Shen Jiu, the housekeeper who was Shen Shixing, shouted: "Didn't you see that the elder pavilion was going out of the city? Why haven't you opened the door yet? “

The general of the forbidden army listened to the moment and said: "It is rumored outside that the Beijing camp outside the palace is in turmoil, in order to prevent the rebels from entering the palace gate and disturbing the holy driver, so we will close the palace gate in advance, and ask the elder to forgive me." “

Shen Jiu shouted: "Bastard, the elder is about to go out of the palace to quell the rebellion and open the city gate quickly." “

The general of the forbidden army listened and said: "Without the order of the eunuch or the fire card, I dare not open the door if I die." “

The guards in the palace are composed of the four guards of Teng Xiang, the four guard battalions, and the warrior battalion, all under the command of the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch.

Shen Jiu said: "Bold, dare to stop the old palanquin, if the chaotic soldiers outside are really causing chaos, do you think a palace gate can block the chaotic soldiers?" “

The general of the forbidden army said: "Then it is not my responsibility. “

How did Shen Jiu say, how did the generals of the forbidden army just not open the door. And it is impossible for Shen Shixing to lose his identity and personally argue with a general of the forbidden army.

Everyone is anxious, they can't even get out of the door, how can they calm the chaos. At this time, there were several noises outside the palace gate, I don't know if it was a chaotic soldier or a panicked people, and the generals of the forbidden army did not dare to open the door when they saw this. Shen Jiu's direct intimidation is also useless.

At this time, Lin Yanchao stepped forward and said, "Steward Shen, let me say a few words." ”

The general of the forbidden army looked at Lin Yanchao and asked, "My lord?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Compiled by the Hanlin Academy, Lin Yanchao of Zhiwen Yuan Pavilion." ”

"It turned out to be the champion, but the villain still can't open the door."

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "This official is not here to persuade you to open the door, just to worry about you." Let me ask you, if it is Lord Shoufu in the sedan chair who wants you to open the palace door, will you open it? ”

The general of the forbidden army said: "If it is Lord Shoufu, even Gonggong Feng and the eunuch with the palm seal will sell his face, and he will open the door by himself." ”

Lin Yanchao said: "That's right, although Shen Weng is the third assistant now, there will always be a day when he will be the first assistant in a few years, and at that time, Gonggong Feng and the eunuch of the imperial horse will also need to sell his face, but you will be too late, brother." ”

Shen Jiu, who was listening from the sidelines, looked shocked and looked at Lin Yanchao with a look of admiration.

The general of the forbidden army suddenly woke up when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "I know that I am wrong. ”

Then the general of the forbidden army turned around and shouted: "Open the palace door quickly, what are you talking about, open quickly, take a step slowly, Lao Tzu kicks your ass." ”

On the side, the forbidden soldiers and soldiers opened the palace door.

Shen Shixing nodded and said, "Get up the sedan chair." ”

The sedan chair man will be the sedan chair together, the sedan chair from the left door of Chang'an out of the palace gate, outside the palace gate is Chang'an Street, the left side is the Zongren Mansion, and the right side is the military department.

The sedan chair went all the way south through the gate of the ministry, which was the household department, but I saw the heads of people outside the household department.

And the gate in front of the Ming Dynasty's household yamen was slammed.

Wearing all kinds of clothes, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, who looked like prodigal sons on the streets, scolded there: "The corrupt officials of the household department, dare to be greedy for Lao Tzu's salary, open the door, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill him!" ”

"Open the door, open the door, otherwise Lao Tzu will give you a white knife in and a red knife out."

"Lao Tzu has made meritorious contributions to the imperial court! Lao Tzu shed blood for the Son of Heaven! I want to face the saint! I want to face the saint! Damn, don't come out again, Lao Tzu will kill it! ”

In addition, there were several people kneeling in front of the household yamen holding the spirit card and crying: "My grandfather, my uncle, and my uncle all sacrificed their lives for the country, and the family of three is not in Tumubao, my Zhao family is a loyal martyr, grandfather, grandfather Cheng, you open your eyes and see, how your children and grandchildren treat our Zhao family." ”

Hearing this, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but want to ask, brother, how long do you live? It has been more than 130 years since the Tumu Fort Incident, and even if you are in your fifties this year, your grandfather will be eighty years old when he goes into battle.

Shen Shixing lifted the sedan curtain and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "According to the students' opinion, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp besieged the Yamen of the Household Department this time, if they don't stop it, I'm afraid they will rush into the Yamen." ”

Shen Shixing said: "How can this be reasonable, the household department is the important land of the imperial court's treasury, do they dare to break in?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the hammer door sounded, and dozens of officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp outside were demolishing and repairing nearby houses, making a hammer to pound on the door.

Seeing this scene, Shen Jiu couldn't help but lose his color and said: "The old man is not good, they are about to break in." We must not stand too close so that we will not be overwhelmed by the rebels. ”

Shen Shixing said: "You don't have to pay attention to here, let's go and see if there are any other people nearby, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, have the Jinyi Guards arrived?" ”

So Shen Jiu and a few servants went out to search for a while, and found a deputy commander of the Fifty Percent Soldiers and Horses Division, as well as a head of the household department.

The deputy commander had already arrived with a part of the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities Division, but he saw that the Beijing camp was besieging the Hubu Yamen and there were many people, and there was no one in charge, so he hid on the side and squatted in the ditches on both sides of the street to watch.

As soon as the deputy commander and the head of the household department saw Shen Shixing, he said: "See the elder of the pavilion." ”

Shen Shixing said: "The situation is urgent, so there is no need to be polite, this cabinet department asks you, at the moment, the rebels are making trouble, if you are allowed to take a few leaders to make trouble, do you dare?" ”

The deputy commander hurriedly knelt down and said: "Back to the old pavilion, there are only more than 100 people in the humble position, and there are thousands of officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp who surround the household yamen, I really don't dare." ”

Shen Shixing said: "This cabinet department didn't mean to ask you about it. If you invite a few leaders of the Jingying troubles here, how about the cabinet department say a few words to them and promise not to hurt them? ”

The deputy commander was embarrassed when he heard this, but he still said, "Let's give it a try." ”

Lin Yanchao smiled, this is a common power technique in officialdom, Shen Shixing didn't want to suppress it by force at the beginning, but discussed it privately with the other party, this deputy commander shirked Shen Shixing for the first time, and he didn't dare to shirk it the second time, and he had to do things solidly.

After the deputy commander left, the head of the household department said: "Pavilion Elder, these officers and soldiers are too chaotic, if they don't kill a few people who don't know the law and discipline, the lower officials think that they will arrest a few generals and take them down on the spot?" ”

Shen Shixing said: "No, if a few generals are caught, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing battalion will be leaderless, and they will jump over the wall in a hurry." ”

The head of the household department was also anxious, and asked thoughtlessly: "Could it be that you took the money, first relieved the siege of the household department, and retreated from the rebellious army?" ”

Shen Shixing shouted: "What's more, if the court shows weakness this time, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp think that they can ask for salary by coercion, so where is the discipline of the imperial court?" It must not be done as a last resort. (To be continued.) )
