Chapter 752: The Right Track
In just one sentence, it shows the majesty of the Son of Heaven! Capturing the live mouth will increase the casualties of the palace guards and make it difficult to pursue.
In the West Garden, the sudden and fierce sound of fire guns attracted the attention of the nobles and high-ranking officials in the capital in a very short period of time.
The layout of the capital has always been rich in the east and expensive in the west. The city gate of Xicheng, Fucheng Gate, is only 5 miles away from Xiyuan. At this distance, in the quiet of the night, how can you not hear the sound of a large number of firebolts?
Something happened to Xiyuan!
And the Sishifang, where Jiafu is located, is closer to Xiyuan than Fuchengmen. When Jia Huan heard the gunshots, he was discussing with Jia Zheng in Rongxi Hall about the matter after dawn. Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and Jia Qiang were listening.
In the five-room courtyard, the lights are bright. In the main hall, above and below the big red sandalwood carving case, there are two rows of nanmu chairs.
Jia Zheng was in his fifties, staying up late until the second half of the night, looking tired. The little guy outside came in to confirm that the gunshots came from Xiyuan, his face changed slightly, he looked at Jia Huan busily, and asked, "Brother Huan, Xiyuan is here..."
Obviously, someone rebelled and attacked Xiyuan. The last time a gunshot rang out in the capital, it was at the end of the thirteenth year of Yongzhi, when the former prince mutinied.
Now what?
If it is a rebellion and the rebellion is successful, how will Jiafu respond? The successful suppression of the rebellion in Xiyuanli is a continuation of Jia Huan's plan just now. And what if the rebellion of the king of Jin or the king of Chu succeeds?
"Father, don't be impatient!" Jia Huan groaned slightly in the Rongxi Hall, then made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Father, the plan remains unchanged for the time being. We'll wait and see. ”
He had a little guess in his heart, it was very likely that Ning Rong, the son of the deposed prince, was attacking Xiyuan. Zhen Baoyu told him a hidden news: Ning Rong was in the capital. The kings of Jin and Chu are logically not so bold!
Steady!
This is the tone that Jia Huan set after discussing with Pang Ze in Xiyun Hall in North Park not long ago!
At this moment, Jia Huan didn't know that he had misjudged the situation in Xiyuan: the Son of Heaven was not unconscious, but fishing to enforce the law! A seventeen-year-old son of heaven, political skills, is not trivial! Insidious and deceitful! He took advantage of the misjudgment of the ministers about the green beauty: he thought that something would inevitably happen to the young beauty when he was lucky.
However, Jia Huan's decision, for the time being, is correct! Because, he chose a neutral strategy: steady!
Tonight's situation is quite complicated! For example, at this moment, the gunshots in Xiyuan made the situation even more confusing! Now the primary problem is no longer the physical condition of the Yongzhi Emperor, but the victory or defeat of the war, and who initiated the rebellion.
There are countless possibilities in this situation!
Under the premise that the king of Chu must make a mistake, Jia Huan's most urgent demand now is: to eliminate the killing intent of the Yongzhi Emperor to kill him.
Then, if the Son of Heaven dies, this is naturally no longer a problem; If the king of Chu ascends the throne, he will be miserable; King Jin and other thrones are another scene; If Ning Rong's rebellion succeeds; Or does he want to consider pushing King Yan to the throne..., etc., etc., etc.
However, everyone should have a clear understanding of their position and not be easily disturbed by the external situation.
Jia Huan was very calm at this time. I didn't make irrational decisions because of the pressure of death and the urgency of the situation.
Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remained unchanged, the elk was on the left and the eyes were not instantaneous, and then they could control the interests and harm, and they could treat the enemy!
…
…
Jia Huan told Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and Jia Qiang a few words, left Rongxi Hall, and returned to Xiyun Hall in North Park.
Jiafu's external intelligence was first sent here. Moreover, Pang Shiyuan is still here.
"Ziyu..."Pang Ze and Jia Huan greeted each other, poured tea, and exchanged views. He heard the gunshots in Xiyuan.
Jia Huan and Pang Ze talked about the situation and said in a deep voice: "After dawn, it is estimated that there will be a roughly certain news coming out. We still have an hour or two to go. Wait a little longer. No change, write the article again. ”
Jia Huan's plan is to make a fuss about public opinion in the capital. The Beijing Daily will be sold early in the morning, and there must be articles on it. In the same way, after dawn, it is necessary to control Pravda in the name of Jia Zheng, the envoy of the government, and to publish articles.
Jia Huan and Pang Ze are both editor-in-chiefs. In different situations, the tone of the article must be different.
Time flows slowly.
It's almost four o'clock in the morning. Before dawn, the last darkness. At this time, the gunfire in Xiyuan had already stopped. Jia Huan's expression was calm and asked, "Sishui, is there any news?" This is the sixth time Jia Huan has asked. Seems a little agitated.
Zhang Sishui shook his head and said, "Brother Jia, not yet." "He can't help with this kind of thing. It's going to get more and more messy.
Pang Ze looked at the pocket watch, and then looked at Jia Huan, but saw Jia Huan leaning back, leaning on the backrest Nanmu chair, very relaxed, and said in surprise: "Ziyu, your judgment..."
Jia Huan pursed his lips vigorously and said, "Shiyuan, there is no news, it is the same news." The gunfire in Xiyuan has stopped, if the rebels are victorious, what do you think will happen now? ”
Jia Huan had just exchanged views with Pang Ze, and the most likely sentence came from Ning Rong, the son of the former prince. Pang Ze squinted his eyes and said, "That should be to inform the ministers that tomorrow will be the dynasty." "The twenty-eighth day is not a regular sunrise. The political father is a political envoy, one of the nine secretaries, and belongs to the ministers who must be notified.
Jia Huan nodded, and said again: "And if the Son of Heaven is already dead, or in an incurable coma, and the former emperor's grandson raises troops to attack Xiyuan, he still dares to seize the news in Xiyuan, and does not notify the two scholars of Wei and Song, and does not notify the two kings of Jin and Chu, it is like rebellion." ”
The former emperor's grandson raised troops, and ordinary rebels, are not of the same nature at all. The former is a blatant struggle for the throne! And the latter can be summed up in a military rebellion.
The great scholar of the dynasty, above the prince. However, when there is no decree in the hand, there is no military power. The news in the West Garden is that the Son of Heaven is in a coma, how can the Chinese scholar on duty get the holy decree?
Then, when the Hua scholars have their brains pumped, they will have the act of rebellion, or the idea of supporting other princes. The nobles who held military power in Beijing did not express their position. There is also no unity of opinion within the civilian clique.
Pang Ze's expression moved slightly, and he followed Jia Huan's words and said, "Then, it can only be the instruction of the Son of Heaven." Is the Son of Heaven awake? ”
Jia Huan smiled slightly.
…
…
The analysis of the cocoon made Jia Huan's grasp of the situation return to the track of approaching the truth of the matter. His advantage over other ministers is that his father is Jiuqing; Because, he knew that Ning Rong, who wanted revenge, was in the capital.
In fact, when the gunshots rang out in Xiyuan, Wei Hong and Song Pu, two scholars, went out in a sedan chair and went to Xiyuan to ask to see the Son of Heaven.
In the thirteenth year of Yongzhi, the head of the imperial court sat back and watched the rebellion, and was demoted afterwards. On the same day, there was news and legend that the Son of Heaven had privately talked about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killing Prime Minister Liu Quyu.
Now, something so big has happened in Xiyuan, how can the two scholars still wait for news at home?
…
…
The morning light appeared on the horizon, through the dense green treetops of the West Garden, and fell on the Hanyuan Palace.
In the dormitory, the remaining anger of the Son of Yongzhi has not disappeared! It's a mess inside.
The leader of the rebels has been captured, it is his grandson Ning Rong, and Yu Hou Weijing of the palace guard.
The Son of Yongzhi roared: "How can this be reasonable? Bastard thing, what is he supposed to be? I am his imperial grandfather! ”
All the people in the temple knelt down. The green beauty trembled. Xu Yan, the chief eunuch, knelt on the ground, waiting for the Son of Heaven's order to dispose of Ning Rong, the king of the county. As soon as he brought the news of the interrogation, he provoked the Son of Heaven to be angry.
The three scholars were in the court room outside the temple. The news to the outside world is still blocked. The ministers couldn't guess the situation in the West Garden.
At this time, a eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the commander of the Jinyi Guard has asked Xing You to see you." ”
Yongzhi Tianzi flicked his sleeves, sat down in the collapsed chair, and said, "Call him in." ”
