Chapter 918: The Praying Mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows
Smack!
King Guanghan's body fell to the ground entirely, blood flowed out from his neck and shoulders, turning into a puddle under him, his face was pale, his eyes were wide, and his whole expression was distorted, condensing grief and fear on his face.
"Your Majesty!"
"Lord!"
Several pro-soldiers and guards saw it, and cried out sadly, and then they were all crazy, desperately waving their blades, under the grief and indignation, but also a moment of momentum, forcing the soldiers and horses around them to retreat, but in the end, they were alone, and soon they were defeated and retreated, and finally they could only be trapped in a corner.
On the other side, at the end of the street, King Ganling, King Changsha and others looked at the King of Guanghan who fell to the ground, and their expressions all looked very trance-like and even more surprised.
"What......" King Ganling turned his head and looked towards King Jin, and then shifted to a man with a big waist beside the king, who was slowly lowering the strong bow in his hand, and it was an arrow he shot just now.
"Zhang Fang! Who told you to let the arrows go casually? King Jin also looked stunned, then turned his head to look at Zhang Fang, and reprimanded him a little angrily, "You went down with this arrow, but you murdered a county king!" You can see what a crime! β
"The subordinates know their mistakes and are willing to admit their crimes." Zhang Fang's expression remained unchanged, kneeling on one knee, "It's just that his subordinates are slightly familiar with military affairs, and the people led by the King of Guanghan at that time have the intention of a military formation, and they will come to rush to kill, so they will do it just in case of accidents." β
"You're Zhang Fang?" King Ganling showed a look of surprise, "I heard that you were a waste...... The generals of the King of Hejian are also brave and brave, starting from the slight cold, when the King of Hejian left Beijing, you did not leave, but invested under the command of the King of Jin? As he said that, he looked sideways again
Zhang Fang didn't respond, but the King of Jin said with a bitter face: "It's a little troublesome now, such an accident can happen, this is a lonely mistake!" β
The king of Changsha, who had an irritable expression on the side, heard this, and it was also worth giving up.
They started this time, it can be said that it is a risky fight, if it becomes, there are a lot of troubles to deal with, but once it fails, it will be a catastrophe, and because of the urgency of time, and the king of Guanghan is even more powerful in Luoyang, the tentacles go deep into all aspects, a little delay, it is possible to be discovered by his people, and then prevent, so they contacted Zhang Ying, half threatened, half induced to pull together, they immediately decided to do it, to prevent long nights and dreams.
Said to do it, it is not easy, the king of Changsha has a lot of people in his hands, but it is inevitable that there will be traces when mobilized, fortunately, my prince is not a fuel-efficient lamp, in fact, he has been prepared, so the movement is not big, before the inspection of the barracks in the city was found, the people have been pulled over.
Then, a few more rangers were gathered, and they just hugged them and started directly.
The whole process is actually a bit child's play, and it is quite rough, if it is not at night, and the Ganling Wangfu is not far from here, and the king of Changsha already knows the patrol path, he can do something from it, I am afraid that this person will be intercepted as soon as he enters the city.
Even so, with such a big movement, it was difficult to hide from the special officials of the imperial court and the forces in the city, so they had to fight quickly, so their attack on the Guanghan palace was extremely ferocious, and it was quite at any cost.
At that time, the king of Jin judged that if such a fierce attack was difficult to take for a while, the other party was likely to escape through the back door, and several people came to wait.
I didn't expect it to happen, and it also made the brothers King Ganling and King Changsha breathe a sigh of relief, you know, they actually have other worries in their hearts, that is, they are worried that King Guanghan will run from a place like a secret road, but this kind of worry is really difficult to eliminate with limited manpower, so I have to force myself not to think about it.
Don't find this kind of behavior a little incomprehensible, after all, what they are doing now can be said to be a military coup, where can it be so rough?
But in fact, many coups d'Γ©tat in ancient times are absurd and full of chance, and it is difficult to be completely rigorous, going back to history, many coups in the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty look even rougher, not to mention, in the original historical time and space, several coups at this stage are also full of absurdity.
In the final analysis, it is the current social atmosphere that has an impact on people's behavior and social organizational structure.
On the other hand, there was also Zhang Ying who responded externally, contacted the officials who were dissatisfied with the King of Guanghan in the court, and restrained them to a certain extent, which also made the brothers of the King of Ganling feel that this was a rare opportunity, so they took action blatantly! Less prepared, more chaotic.
It's just that they didn't plan to take the life of King Guanghan, but planned to throw people under house arrest in Jinyong City, even if they were killed, they couldn't be killed on the spot, leaving a false excuse.
I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Squinting slightly, King Ganling waved his hand and said: "King Guanghan has been plotting against him, and he has privately raised many dead soldiers, maybe it is a plot that is not good for the emperor, how can such a person be despised and killed on the spot!" Besides, this person cultivated party henchmen in the national capital, and there were many helpers, and there were many servants in the inspection of the capital, and it was a good thing that he died at this time, and those people had no allegiance to the lord, so they naturally had to weigh it, just take this opportunity to master the Beijing camp, left and right, and enter the house with me, and find the tiger talisman! β
At this time, there was a bit of domineering in his words, and he was obviously ready to take over the authority left by King Guanghan.
Hearing this, King Jin seemed to be relieved and thanked him.
"King Jin, don't worry, I promised you before, there will be absolutely no change, and in the future, if you want to govern the country and calm the chaos of all parties, you still need the help of our clan!"
After saying this, he no longer paid attention to it, but directed the people to start dealing with the current chaos.
This busyness lasted until dawn.
"Your Majesty, the emperor sent someone to pass the word and let you go to the palace!"
When it was almost over, news suddenly came from the palace.
King Ganling nodded, but said, "Let the princes stay, there are still some things to deal with." β
"Brother Wang, it's better to enter the palace as soon as possible, and it will change later!" The king of Changsha took two steps forward, his face full of excitement, "Although Liu Chu is dead, but the person is gone, could it be that his henchmen will continue to support this person?" We have Zhang Ying as a helper, and many colleagues are waving their flags and shouting, it is the time to take advantage of the situation! β
"This is a good statement, but don't be too anxious, I'll enter the palace to face the saint, you give me fifty people, plus our own guards, to escort me into the palace!"
The king of Changsha hesitated instead, and said, "Bringing so many people into the palace, I'm afraid there are too many people, right?" β
King Ganling said: "We have done such a big thing, the king of Guanghan is dead, the authority is hanging, this will not be the time to hide clumsy, otherwise it will make people think of him, maybe make wedding clothes for others, of course, to protect their own family, you see that Zhang Fang suddenly shot, kill Liu Chu, there is a cat greasy, this person is the person who abolished the prince, the waste prince can get out, and also rely on the Guanghan King to plan, the two are brothers, Zhang Fang took refuge in the King of Jin, and did not hesitate to shoot the people close to the old master, it is really puzzling, you must not be prevented, it is said that the people of the King of Jin killed him, But in the end, this crime must be charged to you and me......"
"Brother Wang is talking about ......"
Without waiting for the King of Changsha to finish speaking, the King of Ganling changed his words: "There is no need to say much about these, you can just keep it in mind, it is still safe at the moment, and it is not appropriate to make extraneous branches, after I enter the palace, you should not be idle, take people to the homes of those henchmen of the King of Guanghan, arrest them all, give them a name, and kill them on the spot!" Now that the king of Guanghan is dead, the first in Beijing at noon, I want to see who dares to stop you and me! The murderous spirit in these words is almost as substance.
"This ......" The king of Changsha hesitated, not soft-hearted, he also knew that this was not the time for a woman's benevolence, but what he was worried about was something else.
King Ganling saw the clue and said: "You and I are brothers of flesh and blood, and when we are in power in the future, we should support each other, otherwise how can we stand firm?" But you, who can be trusted? When the time comes, Lone will be in power, you will be in charge, Luoyang will be in hand, and I will have it in the world! It's just that the current situation is unstable, and the face of the Holy Palace may not be a smooth road, in case there is a good one, if you are outside, there are still constraints, on the contrary, if you go together, wouldn't it be a disaster for everyone to fall into the urn? β
When he said this, the king of Changsha also nodded dryly, and then said: "What about the Liu family and the Yang family?" The two of them have recently taken refuge, do they want to be arrested? β
"These two families......" King Ganling sneered, "It depends on whether they know how to lift up, after all, the Yang family is related to the name of the saint in the middle, and the Chen family also has that Chen Zhi as a foreign aid, or will dominate Youzhou, it is not simple, you first let people surround the two families, do not let one person go out, and then make a decision when the situation calms down!" β
"Good!"
After the two brothers agreed, they went their separate ways.
On the other hand, the news of the death of King Guanghan was like a stormy wave, sweeping the entire capital, shaking Luoyang, and all the forces on all sides were shocked and had their own thoughts.
"King Guanghan is actually dead?"
"King Ganling actually has such a hot hand, he is really powerful, he is a character!"
"Luoyang, it's going to change again! I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse this time! β
Among the Chen Mansion and the Yang Mansion, there were even more waves, and the servants were sent back and forth between the two mansions, and soon a few letters were written, which were carried by fast horses, dredged up and down relations, and went out of the city overnight, and went straight to the north!
As soon as the messenger left, the two families were surrounded by a group of people, and they couldn't get through!
Up and down the house, there was a panic all of a sudden.
"Lord, the people outside the house don't say what the reason is, they just surround and don't let people out, do you let a few sons escape from the secret passage?" The old housekeeper found Chen Yong and asked.
Chen Yong groaned when he heard this, and finally shook his head: "Since it only besieges the mansion and does not cause harm, it means that there is a turning point, and wait and see what happens, the old man is the weight of Jiuqing, the court ordered the ministers, Shouyi is guarding outside, and the name is shocking to the north, could it be that there are still people who dare to touch my Chen family?" β
As soon as this statement came out, it spread out, and the house was a little peaceful.
But it wasn't long before there was a commotion outside.
"What's going on?" Chen Yong's face was full of exhaustion, and he was forced to ask someone, but the person didn't know, so he had to go out to investigate, and then brought an unbelievable news-
"King Ganling attacked the face saint, and as soon as he entered the palace, he was besieged and killed by the guards and chopped into meat paste!"
