Chapter 1323: Arrest
Xufu.
Xu Pengju and several generals were sitting in the hall, and the matter of patrolling and searching the Nine Guards was arranged, and they were not needed as four-rank generals.
It stands to reason that the pacification of the military rebellion should be a happy thing. But at this time, the atmosphere in the hall was very stagnant, everyone did not speak, and the silence was unusual.
Because they all know that things are big deals!
The noise got out of control, and finally turned into a chaotic siege. This is already very serious, and it can't calm Emperor Jiajing's anger without killing a few people.
But......
Luo Xin arrived, and things rushed in a completely out of control direction, and Luo Xin and the rebels went to war. Once the war starts, things will be completely different, and Jiuwei can already be charged with rebellion.
Who is responsible for this?
Definitely not Luo Xin!
Luo Xin can completely say that if he hadn't arrived in time and the rebels broke through the inner city, he would definitely have lost his life. From this point of view, Luo Xin is a hero.
So, who are the criminals?
Up and down Nanjing, civil and military officials are all there.
The civil officials are okay, at most they are dismissed. And it may not be dismissed, after all, many people in Nanjing, such as Ma Kun, the head of the household, are Xu Jie's people and Xu Jie's iron buddies. With Xu Jie, the head of the cabinet, at most, the official position will be demoted by a few ranks.
However, their generals are different, I'm afraid that if they don't kill a few, Emperor Jiajing will not finish. And Xu Pengju is afraid, Emperor Jiajing may not kill him, but he can take the title!
Once he takes away the title of duke of another country, even if it is just to demote him to a marquis, it is not something he can afford.
When the time comes, his losses will be great.
A duke, there will be too many people to give you face and dare not provoke you.
But......
A marquis!
It's really nothing, if Emperor Jiajing deprived him of his military power and handed over all the military power to the Southern Jingluo Luoxin, at that time, his status was reduced, his power was gone, and there would be countless enemies, or greedy people, around him to bite.
For a while, Xu Pengju was upset, and he really had no idea in his heart. And those generals also looked at Xu Pengju with blank eyes, and hoped that he would have an idea.
"Stepping on ......"
There was a sound of footsteps, and the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion walked in and said, "Grandpa, Lord Luo is here." ”
"Lord Luo, Luo Xin?" Xu Pengju raised his head: "So quickly, he solved all the Nine Guards Battalion?" ”
In his heart, he always thought that the reason why Luo Xin left immediately without stopping after relieving the siege of the inner city of Nanjing was to go to the Jiuwei camp, because there were still 60,000 soldiers there, and he wanted to pacify or suppress the 60,000 soldiers as soon as possible, which was the real solution to the danger of this rebellion.
Therefore, when he heard that Luo Xin was coming, he was very surprised. The Jiuwei Battalion was pacified so quickly, although the 60,000 people who remained in the Jiuwei Battalion were not the main force in terms of noise, and the more than 30,000 people who made the noise were disabled by Luo Xin, coupled with Luo Xin's prestige in the south, especially in the military, it is estimated that it will not be too difficult to suppress the Jiuwei Battalion.
But......
That's too fast, right?
If all this is true, this Luo Xin is too terrifying!
At this time, Xu Pengju's heart had a fear of Luo Xindu, his eyes swept over several generals, and he got up and said:
"Let's go, come with me to meet Lord Luo."
The eight generals stood up, followed behind Xu Pengju, and came all the way to the gate, Xu Pengju stepped out of the gate, his expression was stunned, he saw a thousand cavalry behind Luo Xin, but then he thought that now is the time of the rebellion, Luo Xin led the troops for safety, so he smiled on his face and said:
"Lord Luo, the Nine Guards Camp has been pacified?"
"Not yet!" Luo Xin shook his head slightly.
"What is that?" Xu Pengju's face showed a look of astonishment.
"Let's take care of grandpa and borrow a few people."
"Who?"
Luo Xin waved his hand.
"Hula......"
Dozens of soldiers rushed out from behind Luo Xin, and they had already been instructed by the general of the Nine Guards, knowing that they were going to arrest those three people. So, they pounced on the three men, and before they could react, they pressed them, tied them up, lifted them up, and walked towards their own team.
"Lord Luo, what do you mean by this?" Xu Pengju changed color.
Luo Xin was silent, looked at the three people who helped the horses, and then bowed to Xu Peng:
"Grandpa, this official still has important matters, so I'll leave first! I'll visit again in two days. ”
When the words fell, Luo Xin turned over and shouted: "Go!" ”
"Stepping on ......"
A thousand horsemen galloped and roared.
There was no anger on Xu Pengju's face, just endless fear. He suddenly realized something.
At the beginning, it was he who instructed the three henchmen to go to Jiuwei to find trustworthy generals, and then those Jiuwei generals encouraged Jiuwei to make a noise.
Now it seems that Luo Xin has touched the melon, and then brazenly arrested his henchman.
Can his three henchmen keep their mouths shut?
Xu Pengju is not sure, since the generals of the Nine Guards have surrendered and bitten out their three henchmen, Xu Pengju's head is caught by the door, so he will believe his three henchmen. Therefore, in his opinion, those three henchmen must confess themselves.
In this way, this time, the leader of the final rebellion was not him Xu Pengju?
This matter is known to Emperor Jiajing, I am afraid that it will not be a title, but a head!
His Xu Peng's head is not guaranteed!
But......
Xu Pengju stomped his feet hatefully, lamenting Luo Xin's cunning, and when Luo Xin left, he still left someone to tell him that the soldiers were sent out to patrol and search for the fleeing Nine Guards soldiers, and he sent all the soldiers out, at this time, even if he wanted to intercept and kill Luo Xin, it was impossible.
"What should I do?"
Xu Pengju suddenly found that he had no way, even if he gathered all his four thousand cavalry, he was not Luo Xin's opponent.
"Is Luo Xin coming back to arrest himself?"
"Do you want to close the city gate and not let Luo Xin in? That's a rebellion. ”
"What the hell is going to do?"
Xu Pengju was completely flustered at this moment, but Luo Xin rushed back to his camp with his cavalry at this time, Luo Xin let the three generals loosen their ties in front of them, and spoke very clearly in front of the three people.
Xu Pengju can't cover you anymore in this matter, no matter whether you tell the truth or not, there are so many people who report you, the three of you are dead, and you will be connected to the nine clans. But if you tell the truth, I, Luo Xin, can save your lives.
In the face of death, even if it is just a straw, it will be regarded as hope and grasped to death. And Luo Xin's character is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
