Chapter 219: A Hundred Feet of Collusion (14)
In the early morning of the fourth day when the granary was burned, Uncle Cen happily told a group of nobles about the dream he had last night.
"I dreamed that Zitian was lying outside the Lu Gate, with his head facing north and his feet facing south. I turned into a big crow and perched on him, my tail facing Kirimon. What does this mean? ”
Lumen was the east gate of the Song city.
In the twenty-sixth year of Lu Aigong, when the Song State was still strong, he left a mark on the left biography, and Lu Men was recorded in the history books.
In winter, the Song people attacked Zheng with princes and reported the battle of the Song Dynasty. Burning the ditch gate, entering, and Dakui. Cut down the eastern suburbs and take the head of the cattle. Return to the rafters of the palace for the rafters of Lumen.
Now the rafters recovered from Zheng Guo's palace are still on top of Lumen, although they are a long time ago, they have not decayed.
Uncle Cen Xi was not the first person to have such a dream, and the person who had such a dream back then completed a successful coup d'état.
As for whether Cen Xi really had such a dream, or whether he didn't have this dream and just said it for everyone to hear, the meaning is the same.
Cen Xi may or may not know the meaning of this dream, but the important thing is that someone stands up at this time to explain what this dream means.
Taizhu knew that it was time for him to take the words, so he congratulated: "This is a good omen." A person who is really good at divination does not necessarily need a tortoise shell. ”
"Zitian Beishou is said to have lost the country. Jun turned into a crow in his dream, with his head in Lumen and his tail in Tongmen, which is the omen of the blood of the Xuanniao, and only you can save Song Zhisheji! ”
Taizhu used what he knew to explain the meaning of this dream, and said that Gongzide also had such a dream back then, so the coup d'état many years ago was successful.
Everyone present has already sworn a bloody oath, and now that the stakes are clear and the opportunity has come, the analysis of this dream is nothing more than a clarion call for attack.
Everyone no longer had any doubts, so Xiao Sikou said: "Now the people in the city are on our side. They were already dissatisfied with the defense of the city, for fear that there would be another thing to break their bones and cook. ”
"I have also sent people to preach a lot, everything is Zitian's fault. The people may not be convinced of us, but they already resent Zitian, so it's time for a change of king! ”
Before the coup d'état decades ago, the interests of each family were divided early, and finally an agreement was reached to govern the three surnames.
It was precisely because of that agreement that when the Duke of Song begged the Chu people to set a office, the nobles of Shangqiu City were extremely dissatisfied.
Now that the distribution of benefits has long been discussed, Zi Cen Xi promised that if he became the king, he would agree to the requests of each family, and the nobles also knew that Zi Cen Xi was not powerful enough, so he agreed to do it, otherwise he would still not be able to sit firmly in the position of duke.
Taizhu said: "In the past, there were hermits like Lao Peng, who made a ballad and said: After the decay, the end of the burial, the brother and the younger brother or the son-in-law inherit it is not yet known." ”
"The first public is in the place, and it is not enough to cut the decline period. Uncle has the dream of Lumen again, which is in line with the destiny of heaven and the will of heaven! ”
"The people are already dissatisfied with Zitian, so we can do it!"
Da Yin nodded and said, "Exactly." Now the Chu people are attacking the city fiercely, and the Mo people have no intention of governing the affairs in the city. The emperor's father, Yue Ling, personally went to the city to inspect it, and they knew that if the city was destroyed, the city emperor clan would inevitably perish, so they even used their own dead soldiers. This is self-destruction, can't the Chu people break the city, and there won't be any changes in the city? ”
Xiao Si Kou hesitated a little and asked, "But the Emperor of the City is now in the city, guarding the city with the Mo Scholar, I am only afraid that the Mo Scholar will help him." ”
Da Yin said with a smile: "Whoever guards the city, the ink will help whoever is there." The problem is that if the city does not need to be defended, then the people who defend the city are only the original people. Now the imperial father Yue Ling is the imperial father Yue Ling who guards the city and patrols the city, and if the new monarch does not abide by the decision, then the imperial father Yue Ling is only the son of the Sicheng Emperor, how can the ink man help him? ”
The final words answered everyone's last doubts, and Da Yin swore an oath to everyone again, and then said: "It can be launched today!" ”
…………
Before noon, the private soldiers and armor soldiers in the mansions of various nobles went to the streets, wearing leather armor and holding spears and short swords, and ran rampant in the city.
The people who had not yet been conscripted under the city walls did not panic when they looked at the hundreds of people who suddenly appeared.
They have seen a lot of coups d'état, they have long been accustomed to it, and they know that it is another coup d'état when they look at today's situation.
Even if it is a coup d'état, there are still some things to say.
After the soldiers lined up, they showed off their might in the city and took the lead.
The nobles who participated in the coup d'état elected eloquent men to loudly announce problems in the city.
"Zitian was rude to Chu and inferior to Jin, which caused the Chu people to besiege the city this time. This is all Zitian's sin, this is to make the Song State fall into the desperate situation of Chen Cai and other countries, and cut off the sacrifice of the ancestors, this is a sin, which is intolerable to the Emperor of Heaven. ”
"Emperor Sicheng offered Jiahe to Han Zhao Wei, which made the Chu people angry, so this time it was only the rude Zitian and Emperor Sicheng who were punished."
"Shall their sins cause you to be eaten by your sons, and your bones to be boiled? This is not right, so, please expel the monarch and form an alliance with the Chu people! ”
This kind of announcement will always be heard by many people in the national capital.
Nowadays, coups d'état are frequent in various countries, and the small countries sandwiched between Jin and Chu have had countless riots because of the problem of pro-Jin and pro-Chu.
Not to mention that Zheng and Wei drove the monarch away because of the problem of pro-Jin and pro-Chu, even if the Zheng people were unwilling to anger Chu soon after, the 40,000 conscripted Zheng people would rather surrender to the Chu people than fight.
The people were already dissatisfied, and the people in the city, like the people under the city walls, listened to the propaganda of the Xuanyi Department of the Mozhi, and it was imperceptible that it was advantageous to defend the city.
Now that the cost was even greater, they were resentful and did not want to defend the city at all.
The only difference is that the people who organized under the city walls were unveiled by the Xuanyi Ministry, pointing the problem to "fighting for interests".
And these people in the city who deliberately did not preach it are still at the level of "acceptance is not the worst outcome".
No one told them what to do.
The nobles told first, so they were quickly incited.
It sounds like there is a sense to those words.
If the monarch did not anger the Chu people, why did the Chu people go north to surround the Song Dynasty? If Emperor Sicheng didn't offer Jiahe, why were the Chu people angry?
No one told them that no matter whether they were angry or not, the Chu people would go north in order to fight for hegemony, so these truths preached by the nobles sounded very reasonable.
The dead soldiers, who had mixed into the crowd, shouted in a loud voice as the people were in confusion: "Yes, why should we have to suffer the suffering of Yi Zi and his broken bones because of the sins of the king? If the monarch is not able to benefit the society and the people, then the people should replace them! ”
Originally, the people were dissatisfied, but no one wanted to take the lead.
When a dead soldier shouted like this, the people in the city were just ordinary people, and someone took the lead, so they shouted a few words.
But if they come forward to besiege the palace, it will not be to that extent for the time being.
Moreover, the aristocracy had their own private soldiers, and they did not need the participation of the people at all, but only the people did not oppose it in order to launch a coup d'état.
Hundreds of armor soldiers gathered, and several nobles drove to guide the armor soldiers towards the direction of the palace.
Most of the people who followed behind did not carry any weapons, and they were more of a state of mind to watch the excitement.
The changes that occurred in the city, and soon someone loyal to Song Gong returned to the palace and informed Song Gong.
Several close attendants were on the side, and some pro-Jin subordinates were also nearby, and the one who had gone to see Mo Zhai hurriedly said: "At this time, the people are raging, and Da Yin and others take the opportunity to do something, this can't help but be vigilant!" ”
"If the king comes forward and tells the people that he is willing to form an alliance with the Chu people, even if he learns from the Marquis of Qi and Luhou to drive for the king of Yue and let the Chu people live in Shangqiu, it is better than being expelled by them!"
Zitian, who is in his twenties, has a strong blood, and changed his yuan when his father died, snorted: "Forming an alliance with the Chu people? It's impossible! ”
He has his own flesh and blood, and he also has the dream of restoring the glory of Xianggong's hegemony to the Song Kingdom, so he looks down on his father in the twilight of the Jin Dynasty.
He felt that he was a dignified duke, after Xuanniao, a descendant of Shang Tang, why did he go on a pilgrimage to a Chu barbarian?
The pilgrimage to Zhou Tianzi finally had some face, after all, the Zhou people only "helped" the merchants to drive away the unscrupulous merchants, and the Song Dynasty was still the feudal state of the Shang brothers.
Now that the situation is pressing, he has been stubborn, looked at the panicked close relatives, and said angrily: "I have formed an alliance with the Chu people today, won't the Jin people come to ask for the crime tomorrow?" ”
"Could it be that I, the king of the country, drove with Chu Zi today and rode for the Marquis of Jin tomorrow, do you ministers have a glorious face?"
He won't call the Chu people kings, so he is obviously a viscount, where is he qualified to be kings?
Although Zitian is proud and ambitious, he is not a fool, knowing that he has formed an alliance with the Chu people today, and the Jin people will come to crusade tomorrow.
What kind of rude to Chu and inferior to Jin and the like, it's okay to deceive fools, in the position of the Song State, even if you marry Jin and Chu back then, isn't it the same to be conquered?
When he said this, everyone blushed, and Zitian said: "If you can hold Shangqiu now, do you know what will happen in the future?" ”
He got up, dressed properly, holding a sword in his hand, and said loudly: "As long as you hold Shangqiu, the Chu people and the Jin people will know that the Song State is not easy to attack." We still have the opportunity to promote the war meeting of Dr. Hua Yuan back then. ”
"If you surrender to the Chu people directly, ha! Do you want to surrender when the Jin people come? What kind of face do I have as a king? Those of you who are vassals, don't think about the strength of the state, but think about how to surrender, this is the reason why the Song State was attacked! ”
Many of the attendants drew their swords one after another and said: "The king is humiliated and the minister dies, we will not let the king suffer such humiliation!" ”
But some people secretly complained, and said in their hearts: "Now that the coup d'état is just around the corner, and the palace is about to be breached, what's the use of saying this at this time?" ”
"You have ambition, but you have been banished, what is the use of ambition? Furthermore, is the insult of being expelled stronger than driving a car for the King of Chu? ”
