Chapter 92: The History of the Jin Civil Turmoil (11)

Although Gongzijian was injured in many places, he was still motivated. When he saw reinforcements arriving, he shouted and rushed out of the building. You Zhong originally wanted to capture Gongzijian alive, but now it seems that it is impossible. He suddenly became murderous, and saw Gongzijian's figure pull the bowstring and shoot an arrow, Gongzijian was hit by an arrow in the chest, and immediately fell to the ground, and the bravest warrior of the Jin Kingdom fell at the last moment before the victory.

The team of the third prince also rushed to help the fun-because the loot in the You family's mansion had been emptied, and now it belonged to the You family's first level of value. Under the protection of the dead, You Zhong fought his way through the Quwo West Gate and escaped. As the sun set, the rebels fled in all directions, and the doctors, fearing that they would encounter enemy reinforcements, did not dare to risk continuing the pursuit, so they took the initiative to retreat into the city.

Let's talk about the side of Jiangdu. After You Zhong left the capital to perform his duties in Quwo, Uncle You, who had lost his strong support, thought that the You family could control the entire office, so he naturally became more arrogant and domineering.

Uncle You has become the regent of the Jin Kingdom—no decree can be issued without his consent; Without his permission, Jin Xiangong couldn't do anything. Regarding Uncle You's transgression, Jin Xiangong didn't care about it; He was happy to leave the intricate political affairs to Uncle You to deal with, and he hid behind and quietly watched how he died.

Uncle You abused his power to the extreme: there is no crime in the "Book of Jin Punishment" that he has not committed, and there is no person in the office who has not offended. In this way, he set himself on the path of destruction.

The news of a large-scale rebellion in Quwo immediately reached Jiangdu, and the people of the country were immediately frightened. The vast majority of people don't know anything about it and don't know what to do. The streets are full of frightened people, and people gather in groups of threes and fives, thinking that others know more than themselves, so they keep asking familiar and strange people for gossip. Some good people have started to make up and spread horrific rumors for various reasons, and as a result, they have spread and even scared themselves.

Shi Bao and Yuan Shiyan and others were overjoyed, and they began to create panic because of their official status, and the two were widely believed by the people because of their official status. Only then did the people know that the truth was a hundred times more serious than what was rumored: the You clan not only wanted to overthrow the rule of the Marquis of Jin, but also tried to kill all the princes.

The two doctors also used various languages to arouse the hatred of the major princes against Uncle You, claiming that if the princes and the people of the country did not take up arms to defend themselves, they could only be killed like slaves.

Panicked and helpless people, once instigated, will be completely at the mercy of the fanners and will not be able to control their actions. Frightened and angry, the countrymen flocked to You's mansion together, Uncle You's father and son were killed before they could even get out of the house, and the people in the mansion all suffered disaster with their masters; Belongings were looted and the building was set on fire. When the people dispersed, it was as if the place had been hit by a meteorite after a magnitude 9 earthquake, and everything was reduced to dust.

A few days later, Liang Wu brought the heads of You Zhong and You Xian's father and son to see Jin Xiangong, who worshipped him as a doctor on the spot, and cut a quarter of You's fiefdom and rewarded him. When someone raised an objection, Xian Gong said: "You Zhong killed my favorite brother, and the widow is willing to exchange his life for his resurrection; Don't you deserve these rewards for the murderer's life? ”

Gongzi Jian's death made Xiangong unable to let go for a long time, and Xiangong said that he could not allow another Jin State surnamed You to live in the world, and then prepared to issue a "practice tour order".

Shi Ping said: "The Jin Kingdom has not yet set a precedent for destroying the princes, and this order cannot be issued by the sovereign, so as not to endanger everyone in the doctors." This matter will be left to the minister. "When he got permission, he instigated the sons of the group to exterminate the You clan.

The Fu clan and the You clan perished tragically, and the balance of power between the Marquis of Jin and the Gong clan changed radically. But some of the clans still had no intention of reining in - especially those who took credit for the elimination of the You clan as their own.

Gongzixi and Gongzifei appeared again, and the two of them regarded themselves as "saviors of the country", and they were arrogant for a while. Such people would never have expected that bad luck would befall them: they felt that they were smart and self-proclaimed heroes of the country, but they did not recognize the truth - they are behaving exactly the same as they were after the You brothers eliminated the Fu family.

Jin Xiangong hated these two uncles the most, because when Gongzijian needed help the most, they ran to rob the house, and then shamelessly ran to ask for merit from him. If they had been able to lend a helping hand in time, his brother would probably not have died in battle.

They were "disloyal to the monarch, unloving to their siblings, insatiable, incorruptible...... and shameless" and felt that it was not an exaggeration to inflict the most vicious abuse in the world on them. Jin Xiangong buried his hatred deep in his heart and continued to pretend to be a gentle and weak face.

Until now, the clans still have not recognized the true face of Xiangong - all the turmoil happened between the clans, Xiangong has never participated, and he is so frightened that he is "colorless" every time he fights.

Xiangong decided to solve the trouble once and for all. He built a small city at the source of the water and named it "Ju". Jucheng north of the water, surrounded by mountains on three sides, the scenery is pleasant, there is a natural hunting ground in the south of the city, it is a good place for vacation and leisure.

After the city was built, the prince rewarded it to the princes, and the sons built mansions and villas in the city.

In the winter of the twenty-fifth year of the reign of Lu Zhuang (BC669, the eighth year of the reign of Jin Xian), the Jin Xian Convention invited the princes and doctors to go hunting in Shuyuan, and people lived in the city that night. At nightfall, the soldiers of the Shi clan, the Yuan clan, the Han clan and other families who came quietly joined forces with the public guards and surrounded the city. Jin Xiangong ordered that not a single mouth should be left alive, and then beat the war drums, and the soldiers immediately rushed into the city from the four gates at the same time.

Jucheng suddenly became a human territory, armed men armed with weapons and torches, breaking into doors from house to house. The princes, their wives, concubines, children, retinues, and slaves were slaughtered as if they were not their own countrymen, but enemies of the world. The screams were incessant, and the wide streets, in the brand-new mansions, and in the elegant courtyards, were filled with horrific corpses and horrific blood.
