Chapter 157: Shoufu is dead, but Zhang Jiangling is not dead!
Zhang Shoufu died, but Zhang Jiangling did not die.
Why?
Because the king wants his ministers to die, the ministers have to die.
So, Zhang Shoufu died.
Zhang Shoufu did not die of failure to stand in line, let alone be implicated in party struggle.
It was the one who wanted him to die.
Jun Xiang is a complex collection of contradictions.
The reason why it is complicated is because of the way of kings and ministers; The contradiction lies in the struggle between the monarchy and the relative power.
When the court council was conveyed to the four seas in an imperial edict, the whole country was in an uproar.
The people up and down are panicked, and they are uneasy left and right.
Those who couldn't see the situation clearly, gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, and completely joined the Xiao Party camp.
There are also people who want to open it, in their opinion, no matter how much money there is in this world, no matter how beautiful the wife and concubine are, but without their lives, everything will be a thing of the past.
The party fights for their, what is the blind mixing, if you win, but the spell on your head is tighter, and if you lose, it is easy to even go bankrupt, and it is possible to migrate, degrade, dismiss officials, and even destroy your family.
Therefore, people's hearts and the general trend seem to be fearful and irreversible, but in fact, as long as you grasp the three feet on your side, you can worry about everything.
Especially the three feet in front of some people.
But no matter what, Zhang Jiangling fell.
Maybe it's because his mountain is too high, too heavy, and too suffocating, or maybe it's the hatred between the two of them, or maybe it's the disgust between the 'monarchs and ministers', of course, it's more jealousy, fear, fear and suffering, which makes many people change their ways and 'abandon the darkness and turn to the light'.
In the end, under the joint efforts of the Xiao Party, the Loyalist Party and some of the Yuan Zhang Party, he finally fell.
The first person of the Dajing courtier, Zhang Xiang and Zhang Jiangling, was ruined.
and the whole people were wiped out.
Go back in time, ten months ago.
The world's strife began to appear, first there was a Buddha from the east, came to Jinzhou Bailong Temple, in order to observe the suppression of the 'demons' under the tower temple, and then there was Yanjing Yuxuan Xiao Hanchen to inspect the southeast Taoist temples, the heroes were all together, and the Xuanmen of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was silent like a cicada.
At the right time, the Jiangdong Shi clan confronted Dajing for 30 years, and then spent another 20 years to eradicate it, and the former Yan remnants who occupied the magpie's nest finally completely controlled the south of Dajing, and officially established the country on the first day of the first month, which was the 'Great Yan'.
Because the former Yan Xi was still red, he admired the virtue of fire, but after being destroyed by Dajing, the remnants of them regarded the virtue of fire as unknown, changed their color to black, and completely dyed black from blood!
Moreover, it is 'black' that has been stained with the blood of Yasukuni.
Nanyan was in the early days and urgently needed a big victory to declare sovereignty. This is not only a revenge for the general trend of the founding of the country to swing a sword to the enemy to the north, but also a good opportunity to use the power of foreign enemies to condense the national strength of Southern Yan.
Remove the carrion, strip off the mud, travel lightly, and be reborn from the fire.
This is also the challenge and demonstration of the 'former Yan remnants' to Dajing.
Even when the Espionage Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs in Taikang City learned the secret information that Xiao Shilong, the thirteenth prince of Yunxiao Kingdom, had secretly gone south and went straight to Nanyan, many courtiers were inhaled.
Enemy on the belly and back!
This was the first thought that crossed the minds of countless courtiers.
In the end, many parties such as the Zhang Party, the Xiao Party and the Royalist Party in the center of Dajing abandoned dissenting political views with great tacit understanding, and united the three major forces of the imperial court, prefectures and counties and border armies at the first time, and gathered a full 100,000 troops to the south to defend against the enemy at an unprecedented speed, and then successively transferred the Zhennan Army, the Zhaoyi Army, the Nankang Army and the Xichuan Army and many other elite generals, plus logistics people, auxiliaries, etc., a total of 200,000 Zhennan Army, the mighty southward Imperial Kou.
And the commander of this 200,000 army is none other than the first person of the Dajing courtier, Zhang Jiangling!
Whenever there is a war, it must be the cabinet ministers, the war will open the way, and the victory will return to the country in triumph; If you lose, you will be ruined, and you will be ruined for decades of ups and downs in exchange for a glass of 'imperial wine'.
The cabinet, which was originally a place for Taizong to gather in the cabinet, was initially composed of the emperor's private small group composed of Zhongshusheren, Yilang, Hanlin and Dr. Guozijian, etc., and gradually tended to be formalized and legalized, and the 'emperor's think tank' composed of lowly and powerful Qing nobles such as Hanlin Yuan, the secretary of the province, the Guozijian and the six Chenglang changed to the 'court center' with the separation of powers, such as Shangshu, auxiliary ministers and generals.
This is the origin of the Dajing Cabinet.
As the chief assistant of Dajing who has been in charge of Shangshu Province for more than 20 years, Zhang Jiangling naturally has absolute control over the cabinet.
With the cabinet as the core, it spread out to the six government offices, state capitals and county towns, and the border army of the forbidden army, and overwhelmed the military and political power of Dajing.
Therefore, when Zhang Jiangling boarded the battleship 'Jiangyu' of the Dajing Naval Division and stood with a sword, the arrogance of the army from the south to the north suddenly stopped.
In particular, the Nankang Army and the Zhennan Army are the elite of the Dajing elite, and they are on a par with Yunxiao's 'Yangling Army' and Nanyan's 'Ghost King Army', and are known as the 'Three Kings' Cards.
Theoretically, the Ghost King Army of Nanyan can stalemate with the Yangling Army for a long time, at least ten days and half a month.
Unexpectedly, just ten miles after the two sides gathered, the fighter plane was fleeting, and a big war was about to break out.
As early as before Zhang Jiangling left Beijing, he dispatched troops in advance, and secretly built four defensive fronts with Jinshang, Xiangdeng, Xusi, and Jiannan, and a total of two lines of defense.
During the war, the finance, taxation, civil affairs, and military of the area under the control of the Jiedu envoy were all under the control of the Jiedu envoy, which was almost equivalent to a 'country within a country'.
This move also caused an uproar in the imperial court, although it was set up in wartime and withdrawn after the war, but this was the first time that the center gave such great power to the local government, which was almost equivalent to cultivating two princes and kings with different surnames.
After the war, even if he was as strong as Zhang Jiangling, he was also impeached by the Imperial Historical Tower, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the six government offices, and even many 'Zhang Dang' people turned their backs on him angrily, cutting off their robes and breaking their righteousness, kneeling down to thank their teachers and beheading them to draw a clear line, etc., with all kinds of strange tricks, but the purpose was surprisingly the same.
Because, Zhang Jiangling, he committed a central taboo!
To put it seriously, this is very likely to make Zhang Jiangling bear the titles of 'betraying the lord for glory', 'betraying the monarch and gaining power', and 'bringing disaster to the country and the people' for the rest of his life.
Of course, Zhang Jiangling gave Huainan and Xu Si such great power, naturally it was not without restraint, first of all, the first is to win the battle, and the second is that if defeated, the nine clans will be killed!
This similarly strict military order was issued in total, but only Xu Si and Huainan responded, and the rest were only willing to take on the defensive envoys.
There's no way, who dares to play it.
Except for those two fools who are not afraid of death.
In the end, with 150,000 troops, they matched the opponent's 200,000 troops, and won the battle.
This battle came in a hurry and ended quickly.
It took more than half a month.
Twenty days.
Later, when Zhang Jiangling returned to the court in triumph, he was greeted with a letter of inquiry.
And when the letter arrived in Zhangjiangling, he was already on the banks of the Luoshui River.
After looking at Shenluo, the eastern capital, Zhang Jiangling successively sent the Zhaoyi Army and the Nankang Army to return to the station.
After Shen Yi ordered Fang Chu to transfer grain ineffectively, and after delaying the fighter plane and pumping Kong Yuanhui who stayed in the eastern capital a few times, Zhang Jiangling was able to pass through the Tong Pass and enter the pass.
Three days later, the court commended the meritorious soldiers.
At first, he admonished the two defense envoys of Xu Si and Huainan painlessly, and revoked their titles of 'Jiedu', and then began to 'liquidate'.
Liquidation of the first person of the Dajing courtier.
In this way, they quarreled for half a month.
Of course, Xiahou Chun didn't know anything about all this.
At that time, he was having a 'long talk' with the dustless man of the dustless door, and in the end, the two naturally had a good conversation, and the dustless son made a price of 'a guanshou' and sold Tianxin to Xiahou Chun.
Although it attracted Yao Ziyu, the great disciple of the Dustless Sect, to sneak attack at the time, Xiahou Chun was shocked by his majesty, and after defeating him, he took advantage of the situation to subdue Tianxin.
He was trapped in the vast Taixing, unable to know that by fooling and coaxing, the Su Guitou and the dog-headed military advisor Zhuge Dan, who were sent to Taikang by Xiahou Chun, had gained a firm foothold in the capital.
Especially after Guan Jiusi snorted at the pearl in the palm of Emperor Jing in the princess's mansion, and was beaten violently by her raised eyebrows, this emerging force hidden in the shadows actually extended its tentacles to the palace court.
Of course, after the little princess Xiahou Jing, there seemed to be a murmuring in the embroidery pavilion somewhere in Zhang Xiang's mansion.
With the joint efforts of both inside and outside, with the help of the two big arms, 'cloth clothes' prevail in the world.
And in just ten months, the cannibalization whale swallowed all the dark corners of Taikang City, and when Taikang Ling, or Jingzhao Yin Cao Sixun, sensed that something was wrong and was about to think about a 'ploughing and sweeping holes' purge of Taikang City with the new deputy envoy Diao Wei, all the restlessness in the city suddenly died down.
However, no one knew that under the moat outside the city, under the dry wells in the city, and in the wilderness, there were hundreds of headless corpses of the 'big brothers' and 'giants'.
No one even knew that this core member was only three hundred, and the leader of the emerging force 'Buyi', which had expanded to two thousand on the periphery, was actually a weak scholar.
And he is also holding a Zhuge feather fan, no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, he is a long-sleeved thin shirt, and he also looks like a wisdom pearl in his hand.
The scholar is naturally Zhuge Dan, and Su Guitou is reluctantly appointed as the 'three masters'.
Why the three-in-command, not the second-in-command?
Naturally, it is because Zhuge is the second master, and His Royal Highness Qianlong who went to the north is the big master.
Xiahou Chun's original intention was to let Zhuge Dan, who was full of mud, go to Taikang, with the help of the forces of the East Palace, change his perspective, overlook the Yasukuni situation with a commanding attitude, analyze the forces of all parties in the DPRK and China, and build his own team, and then grab some resources for Xiahou Chun to resist the enemy going south.
It would be best if it could even influence some people in the court.
It's a pity that Xiahou Chun underestimated the energy of the name 'Prince of the East Palace', and also underestimated his own power and connections in the court, but also overestimated the vision and overall situation of Zhuge Dan and Su Guitou.
Xiahou Chun wanted to push it to the clouds, but unexpectedly, they actually took root on the ground, and they made a special noise, and when he learned about it, he was so angry that he almost vomited three liters of blood.
But no matter what, this emerging snake in Taikang City has done a big thing.
They rescued a father and daughter and transferred them safely out of Tongguan.
In addition, there is also a young girl who has lost her footing.
The father and daughter speak for themselves.
But this young girl, what's going on?
Buy two get one free.
Zhuge was stunned.
The three masters and hundreds of core members were also stunned.
And the girl who said that her surname was Xiao bit lightly.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage and said categorically: "You tell him that I have come to him." ”
