Chapter 789: The Insurgents Are Numerous
Sun Zhaoxue was angry, clenched her fist angrily, and smashed it on Sun Zhaoming's chest without a moment, Sun Zhaoming didn't say a word, and there was a clear stream under the closed eyes.
Where would Li Zhongxuan worry about Sun Zhaoxue's mood? Or rather, he thought about the matter before and after, so he took a leave of absence from Sun Zhaoxue.
Isn't that a good solution.
On the second day, Zhongjing also issued a holy decree to publicize the matter, and everyone in the know knew that Li Zhongxuan had no meaning to Sun Zhaoxue, and it was reasonable for the two to come to this day, but those who did not know thought that Sun Zhaoxue had offended Li Zhongxuan.
Public opinion is boiling against the sky, Sun Zhaoxue is ashamed to see people, hiding in the Zhumen embroidery household and crying every day, Sun Zhaoming has been teaching two sentences from time to time, but Sun Zhaoxue has been rejected.
Sun Zhaoming had just come out of his sister's side, and he saw a few maids sighing and holding food boxes and trays to deliver food.
"What's the matter, don't you have long eyes when you walk?" Sun Zhaoming was very angry and pushed the maid hard, and several maids followed the big girl in an orderly manner, and was pushed by Sun Zhaoming, and everyone fell down at the same time.
The sound of "oops" and "ahh
"Your Majesty, the princess hasn't been touched for two days, but what should I do?" The big girl has been serving the princess for many years, and naturally she has lost everything, and she is very sad.
"She doesn't eat herself, and she starves to death. Let's go! Sun Zhaoming pushed away the group of women in front of him in disgust, and everyone sighed.
Just out of the West Palace, a eunuch rushed over in a hurry, and hit Sun Zhaoming again, Sun Zhaoming became angry namelessly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Woe to you, Your Majesty! A rebel army has attacked the military headquarters! ”
"Quick, talk to the emperor." He himself is the "emperor", but he often forgets his identity at critical moments.
A quarter of an hour later, Sun Zhaoming strode into the Qinzheng Palace, and the military department Shangshu and Shu Jishi and even the generals all arrived together, and Li Zhongxuan also arrived.
"What do you think of it?" Sun Zhaoming has never supercharged the thief, and he knows very little about these things, so he can only consult Li Zhongxuan.
Li Zhongxuan looked at the military department: "How many people are coming?" ”
"Five or six hundred, but like wolves, as if someone was fueling the trouble." The military department has already seen the clues, but the matter is big, and he doesn't dare to say groundless words.
"I see." Li Zhongxuan took a step away, and with just this step, he made a decision, "Immediately do it, exterminate them, and catch the bandit leader and interrogate him personally." ”
"Just, that's all?" Sun Zhaoming obviously didn't understand Li Zhongxuan, he thought that there would be other arrangements for careful work, at least there should be some unexpected plans.
Where to know, he announced the settlement by force.
"There is something strange about this matter, I can only defeat them, what if I am a snake for the sake of the Buddha?" Li Zhongxuan said this, Sun Zhaoming couldn't save face, but at the moment, he could only play haha.
"I am sitting in the well and watching the sky, often only one hole in the view, today to find you, can be said to climb high and look far away, to know that there is a sky outside the sky, you listen to the order! According to the arrangement of our emperor, General Gan, immediately surround the thieves! ”
The anti-thieves were very rampant, but the number was not very large, no matter how powerful the five or six hundred people were, compared with the soldiers of the imperial court, they were nothing compared to the soldiers of the imperial court, and the battle lasted only two hours, and the rebel army was completely wiped out.
After a while, the leader of the rebel army was taken down, and the criminal department immediately interrogated, only knowing that this person was gathered from the flowers, and everything else was unknown.
Li Zhongxuan personally entered the deep prison and interrogated the prisoner, Lu Mang leaned against the wall, staring at Li Zhongxuan with a pair of big black eyes, Li Zhongxuan has always been eager to seek talent, and Lu Mang does not seem to be a heinous person.
He had the prison opened.
"Your Majesty, let the last general serve by your side, this Lu Mang old man is very powerful, and he almost let him sneak attack our king in the morning." At this moment, the emperor and the king represent Li Zhongxuan and Sun Zhaoming respectively.
"No, you don't." Li Zhongxuan waved his hand, and after holding back what the good deed Ang Ren wanted to say, Li Zhongxuan had already said: "Why do you want to rebel? ”
He is too concerned about these issues, and there are rebellions in Zhongjing almost every three or five years, and this is the first question Li Zhongxuan asked.
"Sun Tianzi is unrighteous and helpless, and the trend is the times." It seems that this Lu Mang is a straightforward person, Li Zhongxuan nodded, and he was very recognized.
And before that, when the rest of the people were interrogated, once this Lu Mang spoke, "Sun Tianzi is unrighteous and helpless, and the trend is inevitable." He was greeted with a leather whip and a soldering iron.
"A tax has caused a storm in the city." Li Zhongxuan grasped the core of the question, "Who asked you to come?" I don't know if you have figured it out now, you made a knife for him. ”
"Huh." Lu Mang resigned himself to fate and closed his eyes, "Even with your Li Zhongxuan's help, Sun Zhaoming still can't sit still." ”
"It's very temperamental, it's time for me to applaud you." Li Zhongxuan nodded, and really began to applaud, and Lu Mang on the opposite side gradually opened his eyes.
Li Zhongxuan said again: "When Sun Zhaoming returns to Ye Qinguo, Ye Qinguo is already a plate of scattered sand, and the treasury has long been empty, in order to buy people's hearts, Qing Gongzi did not hesitate to get away everything that could be moved in the palace, and the court was empty, as for this tax, it was also taken from the people for the people." ”
"The imperial court needs to raise soldiers, just a small Yeqin country, with millions of soldiers, if there were no soldiers who were born and died to fight on the border, now the Jurchens, Xiongnu, Turks, Sari, and this group of chieftains have already waved south, wouldn't it be cold lips and teeth?"
"Raising soldiers needs grain and grass, you Ye Qinguo is in the middle of the Bohai Sea, and rice is not abundant, do you know how many times did Sun Tianzi kneel down to me in order to buy grain and sign an agreement?"
"This!" It can be seen that Lu Mang has only seen the trees and not the forest, and listening to Li Zhongxuan's analysis, Lu Mang suddenly felt that he seemed to have done something wrong.
But he is a man of strong flesh, and even if he understands that he has done wrong, he is reluctant to admit it immediately.
"The sea is also the court's, if the court doesn't open the transport, the farmers and businessmen can't survive for a day, you only see food and drink, where do you know that these are also transported by ships from the rest of the country, without the court, how can there be people?"
Li Zhongxuan didn't want to continue to analyze the stakes, as for Lu Mang, whether he changed his evil and returned to the right or did not stick to the evil, it was no longer Li Zhongxuan's concern, his eyes were sharp like a dagger, falling on Lu Mang.
"Last question, he asked you to come, right? Where is he at the moment? What about Joan? Is it by his side? ”
This question has been on the ground for a long time, but there is no response, Li Zhongxuan looked at Lu Mang again, Lu Mang closed his eyes, and a stream of muddy tears slid down.
"Am I wrong?" Lu Mang roared heartbreakingly, Li Zhongxuan was afraid that Lu Mang would hurt people, so he pulled the old eunuch next to him to his side.
Lu Mang had already bit his tongue and committed suicide, and a torrent of hot blood sprayed on the old eunuch's face, the old eunuch trembled, and hurriedly reached out to wipe it, but Li Zhongxuan's face still did not change.
"Bury it." He pointed to the corpse and turned to leave.
When he got out of the prison, he saw Sun Zhaoming, who was very anxious, pacing around in place, seeing that Li Zhongxuan had come out, and hurriedly went over to greet him.
"I disappointed you, and I didn't find any clues."
"The bandit leader committed suicide?" Sun Zhaoming followed behind Li Zhongxuan, Li Zhongxuan nodded silently, and Sun Zhaoming didn't know what to say.
"Forget it, if you're dead, you're dead."
"Someone behind is stirring up, this Lu Mang is just a desperate person, he boasts that his ambition is difficult to pay, where do you know that he will fall into the mud, you continue to strengthen patrols, according to me, this matter is just a stone throwing to ask for directions, and it will continue to happen in the future."
Li Zhongxuan did not expect badly, on the second day, another group of people began to revolt, the soldiers fought with them, everyone was anxious, and finally eliminated them, but the bandit leader was like Lu Mang, an "iron man" who would rather die than tell the person who was shaking the goose feather fan behind the scenes.
That matter passed, but Li Zhongxuan began to investigate according to the only clues, and he summoned Tobe Shangshu and chatted with the man.
After investigation, nine out of ten of the household registrations of this group of people are in the "Flower Collection".
"I'll show you." Li Zhongxuan stretched out his hand, and the head of the household next to him immediately sent the clues investigated to Li Zhongxuan.
Li Zhongxuan held it and looked at it, and found that in that volume of documents, all those who were circled in red were people who died in the chaos, and the background column behind it really wrote "Taoyuan County, Huajian Ji", Li Zhongxuan threw away the paper, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"Check-" he dragged out his voice, "Is Young Master Qing from Taoyuan County?" ”
The household department Shangshu was about to hold the book and read it carefully.
"Here, Your Majesty, Shen Qingnian is also from Taoyuan County, but he has left his hometown since he was a child and traveled far away According to our visit, he has appeared three times in the past twenty years."
"Go on." Li Zhongxuan's eyes were as vast as a galaxy, and the household secretary licked his dry lips and continued: "The first two times were nothing more than returning to his hometown, and the last time, that is, during the Midyear Festival in July last year, he went to Taoyuan County to take away his mother. ”
Li Zhongxuan listened and calculated, "Between July last year, he was the emperor at that time, right?" ”
"My emperor is wise, yes." Tobe Shangshu nodded.
"Prepare the horses."
Li Zhongxuan went to Taoyuan County, but Sister Hong was faster than Li Zhongxuan, since she knew that Qiao An's whereabouts were unknown, Sister Hong searched in various villages in Ye Qinguo, and naturally there was no news, but the cable reported that the origin of Naqing Gongzi was in Ye Qinguo's Taoyuan Huajian Collection.
In this way, Sister Hong became interested and led a group of red ladies to investigate, this Huajian Market is just a relatively prosperous small market town, but compared with the rest of the villages in Ye Qinguo, the folk customs here are more simple, and the people's lives are rich.
No one knows when the custom was formed, and the people of all the towns like to trade here, so that this small market town, after development, has been second to none, in this town, there are all kinds of places to eat, drink and have fun.
"You didn't lie to me, did you, this is really Qing Gongzi's hometown?" At this moment, Sister Hong and General Cheng entered an inn, and Sister Hong asked while eating.
"Naturally, it's not wrong, I've been investigating for a long time, is it possible that you will think that your Qing Gongzi is from Zhongjing?" General Cheng was eating, but his slippery eyes were watching the people coming in and out.
"After eating this, let's go to Qing Gongzi's house to have a look."
It turns out that Qing Gongzi's old mansion is still there.
Although the building was empty, Sister Hong and General Cheng both felt the need to peek inside, and a few people stayed in the hotel, and when night fell, they changed their night clothes and went to Qing Gongzi's old house.
Because Qing Gongzi is a celebrity in ten miles and eight towns, and the Shen family is a famous family here, even if Qing Gongzi is regarded as a "traitor", but in the eyes of the people, Qing Gongzi is still a well-known and Taoist gentleman, so when people go to the empty building, there are still people who protect everything very well.
