Chapter 239 Fu Gongyou rebelled

"Fifty thousand!"

"Bump!"

"Three ropes!"

"Bump!"

"Don't touch it, I'm nonsense!" Li Xiuning grabbed the three ropes from Li Daozhen's hand and said triumphantly: "Give money, give money!" ”

When Chen Ying just started, he could still rely on his own experience, but Chen Ying ignored Li Xiuning, Li Daozhen, He Yueer, the speed of their learning mahjong, after five laps, the women were basically familiar with the rules, after a day of fighting, Chen Ying basically won and lost, and after a day, he had already begun to lose more and win less.

Looking at the last ten-run banknote in front of him being grabbed by Li Xiuning in his hand, Chen Ying said decadently: "I lost everything, don't fight, don't fight......"

Li Xiuning shook his head and said: "No, if you play again, I will lend you no money if you don't have money, and your own people will not count your interest!" ”

Chen Ying was about to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, but at this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded. Chen Ying listened intently to the sound of hurried horses' hooves, and then the sound of messy footsteps sounded.

It was a makeshift farmhouse yard, and the house was very poorly furnished, with a smoky wooden pillar in the middle of the hall, a stone foundation with a pitted foundation, and next to the pillar was a simple table with gaps almost enough to fit into a finger, four elm benches, and a stove in the corner, which made the room much warmer than the outside.

The entrance of the outer courtyard is only a dozen steps away from the main hall, and even if there is a cough at the door, it can be heard in the house. Li Xiuning listened to the messy footsteps and knew that something must be wrong, so he pointed to Ma Sanbao and said, "Sanbao, come over and play a few rounds!" ”

Chen Ying got up and put on a big coat and came to the outside of the house, in the sixth year of Wude, it was already extremely cold weather in the territory of Guannei Road, Chen Ying was in the carriage, there was a stove, there was a fire kang, naturally they didn't feel cold, and now they were responsible for driving the wheels outside, or the soldiers who followed it, but they were in pain.

Although Chen Ying was wearing cotton clothes and cotton pants, he still obviously felt cold when he was wearing a big hat. Not long after, Guo Luo's figure appeared in Chen Ying's sight, although Guo Luo was wearing a locomotive hat and thick sheepskin gloves, there was white frost on his eyebrows and beard.

Seeing Guo Luo frozen like this, Chen Ying pointed to the wing room and said, "Don't be in a hurry first, let's talk about it when we enter the house!" ”

Chen Ying asked Guo Luo and his guards to give a cup of hot broth, and everyone roasted around the stove, and after a while, Guo Luo handed a letter to Chen Ying and said, "Lord, news has just come from Chang'an!" ”

Chen Ying opened the letter, but he didn't have time to read it yet.

Guo Luo smiled bitterly: "I didn't receive news from Chang'an for three days, I felt a little wrong, so I took someone to the front to investigate, and sure enough, something happened!" ”

Originally, according to the plan, Chen Ying should enter the territory of Yuanzhou, and from Xiaoguan to Guanzhong, the sudden cold snap disrupted Chen Ying's plan. The frenzied cold snap is still the master of the sky, and human beings are still insignificant under the obscenity and majesty of nature.

The thick locomotive hat, thick sheepskin gloves and sheepskin sleeping bags were no longer able to resist the invasion from the severe cold, and the snow was nearly three feet deep, reaching the belly of the horse, and it became very difficult for the horse to walk in the snow, and the sky became foggy, and the air was full of semi-condensed mist, which was not evaporated by the sun, but was condensed from the air when the temperature was too low, and floated lightly in the air to harm people.

Even if General Anxi stayed in the Western Regions for three years, he felt that the winter in Guanzhong was actually colder than that in the Western Regions.

The biggest problem now is that Chen Ying's supply has given a problem, originally from Shule to Chang'an, Chen Ying walked all the way, and there was a tiger in front of him who was responsible for arranging supplies nearby, so that Chen Ying arrived in Chang'an with enough food and fuel from Shule, which is not a realistic thing at all.

However, this sudden cold snap not only accelerated the consumption of coal and charcoal in Chen Ying's department, but most importantly, due to Chen Ying's reduced speed, at the same time, the same supply, but only half of the planned distance, halfway through the 160 miles, it was an insurmountable barrier for Chen Ying's department.

Guo Luo continued: "In Pingliang, our Tiger Yi was attacked by an unknown enemy from a secret supply point, and the six Tiger Yi who stayed in Pingliang were poisoned by charcoal, but I have checked the scene and there is no trace of a fight......

Chen Ying looked at the contents of the secret letter and said, "Is it because of this letter?" ”

The content of the letter is that Li Jiancheng was almost killed by Guo Shaogang in the prison of the Criminal Department, but after many days, Li Jiancheng also turned the corner, and this news has actually lost its effectiveness.

"Probably not." Guo Luo said: "Otherwise, this letter would not appear here!" ”

Chen Ying thought for a while and said: "I haven't come to Chang'an yet, someone has already targeted me, this is just a warning to Ben Dadu, our people can be said to be the people who know charcoal in the world, how can they be poisoned by charcoal?" Since the beginning of the use of coal in Lingzhou, under the protection of most of the capital, there has never been a person who died of carbon poisoning, but at this time there was such a mistake, do you believe there will be such a coincidence? ”

Guo Luo shook his head and said, "I also feel a little strange!" ”

"By the way, how many fierce tigers did Pingliang platoon stay behind, there should be more than six people who died accidentally!" Chen Ying is a little curious, Pingliang is known as the "Longshang dry wharf", is the ancient "Silk Road" must pass through the important town, the history of the "west out of Chang'an". Pingliang since ancient times is the barrier of the three Qin, control the five plains of the important town, is the "battleground of soldiers" and Longdong traditional commodity distribution center, the Central Plains to the Western Regions and the ancient Silk Road north line of the east end of the traffic and military stronghold, located in the upper reaches of the Jing River, for the intersection of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo geometric center "Golden Triangle", across Longshan (Guanshan), east of Shaanxi Xianyang, west of Gansu Dingxi, Baiyin, south of Shaanxi Baoji and Gansu Tianshui, north and Ningxia Guyuan, Gansu Qingyang adjacent.

In such a strategic location, if the Tiger Yicong only arranged six people, Chen Ying would suspect that the Tiger Yi had never been too derelict in his duties.

Guo Luo shook his head and said: "Naturally, there are more than six people, there is a team stationed in Pingliang Tiger Yicong, there are fifty core members, and more than a hundred peripheral members, but the people who know the Lord's itinerary, except for the six people who died, there is only Wu Qi, the team leader." ”

Chen Ying thought for a while and said: "Bring Wu Qi over to see me, even if he has no problem, I'm afraid that he will inadvertently say that he has leaked his mouth, I must figure it out, who can do it to my people, I can't swallow this breath!" ”

Fortunately, Guo Luo was alert and found out early. If they stupidly waited for Pingliang to transport supplies, as long as Chen Ying and the others would have frozen to death. Even if he doesn't freeze to death, Chen Ying's subordinates will have a large-scale attrition because of this cold snap. This is a conspiracy arranged by human factors, but it was discovered earlier, and there is a possibility of remediation.

Guo Luo said: "I'll do it, if I find that this person has a problem......

Chen Ying said coldly: "Whoever is making a ghost in the back, give him some color to see, I don't care if he is the boss or the second!" ”

Chen Ying was not angry that someone dealt with him, but because Li Jiancheng was almost killed in the prison of the Criminal Department, which represented that the battle for succession in the court and China had changed from the initial struggle for merit and favor to endless death. Daring to do something in the prison of the Criminal Department is actually the biggest failure, even if it is to kill people and kill people, in fact, these clues are also rules to follow, as long as they have been done, they will definitely leave traces.

No matter how generous Li Jiancheng is, when he encounters a threat to his life, he will definitely fight back.

In fact, as Chen Ying expected.

Although Li Jiancheng did not fight back, Li Yuanji had already brought Du Fengju to the East Palace, but Li Yuanji had not tortured Du Fengju, and Du Fengju had already confessed another secret.

This news made Li Jiancheng feel a chill down his spine.

Li Yuanji said: "What did you say? ”

Du Fengju said lightly: "In May of the fifth year of Wude, Qiao Gongshan and Er Zhuhuan reported to Renzhi Palace that Yang Wengan rebelled ......"

Li Jiancheng suddenly realized that at that time, Li Yuan sent Yu Wenying as an envoy to the East Palace to summon Li Jiancheng to come to the palace, but secretly ordered Pei Lin to adjust the defense of the entire Chang'an, and at the same time, issued a secret edict to Li Shimin, asking Li Shimin to fight against rebellion.

It's just that Li Shimin was in too much of a hurry, like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, killing Yang Wengan, and returning to Chang'an with Yang Wengan's head to restore his life.

This point made Li Yuan see the loophole, because the living Yang Wengan is far more convincing than the dead, Yang Wengan's rebellion has become a fact, if he is alive and appoints Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng will definitely be abolished, but the king of Qin is re-established, but Yang Wengan is dead, although the dead can't speak, they can't tell lies.

Although Li Yuan suspected that there was something greasy in it, he didn't do anything more.

When Li Yuanji heard this, he was so angry that the green tendons on his neck bulged: "Raised by a son of a bitch, what did you say?" Qiao Gongshan was instructed by the second child? ”

Du Fengju nodded and said: "To be precise, this matter was instructed by Du Yan's old dog, Qiao Wensheng, the son of Qiao Gongshan, owed a gambling debt of 1,500 gold in Chang'an, and was caught by the gambling house, and he had no money to cut off his hands and feet, Qiao Gongshan had to do it!" ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said: "This matter is an old matter, Your Majesty has no intention of pursuing it, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not want to pursue it, you tell me, what is going on in the prison of the Criminal Department!" ”

Du Fengju said indignantly: "This is a long story, my mother accidentally saw the secret letter written by Guo Shaogang to Du Yan's old dog, my mother was shocked, and handed over the secret letter to me, I know that the stakes are very high, and I persuade my mother to put the letter back in its place, who knows that the old dog, or kill my mother." ”

At this moment, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves, Li Jiancheng and they pricked up their ears and listened for a while, and after a while, they saw that the sentry on duty brought a few eunuchs to the door. A very naïve eunuch, without waiting for the word to be transmitted, he walked in directly, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and when he saw Li Jiancheng, he bowed down and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty has summoned His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the Wude Hall to discuss matters!" ”

Wei Zheng took a piece of money and quietly stuffed it into the little eunuch's hand: "I don't know...... Your Majesty summoned the crown prince, what is the matter? ”

Chen Ying's Datang Tongli Money Village In this era, the biggest advantage is that it is convenient to pay bribes.

If it is usual, 10,000 guan needs 70,000 catties, that is, 35 tons of copper coins. Even the big trucks of later generations would have been filled to the brim, but now they can be condensed on a piece of paper.

The little eunuch secretly glanced at it, and immediately became overjoyed: "Five hundred!" "He can't make that much money in his life.

The little eunuch said: "So that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that news has come from Jianghuai Danyang that Fu Gongyou has rebelled!" ”
