Chapter 380: The Rebellion of Dangze (2)
The five doctors of the Huan clan could not persuade Dang Ze to go into exile, and they couldn't bear to see the Dang clan destroyed, so they had to leave the capital with their families and children. In the early morning of the day when Hua Yuan attacked, the defenders of the city opened the east gate, and the people dragged their families out of Shangqiu, just like a team fleeing. The party traveled east to the shore of Suishui, where they awaited the bad news of the destruction of their kindred.
Hua Yuan ordered Huaxia and Gongsun Shi to lead the countrymen to attack the Dang clan, and Dang Ze and his defenders put up a resolute resistance. The battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and Dangze finally died in battle, and the Dang clan perished.
Once the Chinese people are mobilized, it will be difficult to control their behavior. After the people swept the Dang clan, they still felt that they were not satisfied, so they tried to attack the other Huan families; However, only a few retainers remained in the family of the Huan doctors, and they were unable to resist the attack at all; Seeing that an anti-evil operation is about to turn into a nationwide riot.
The frenzy of the mob has spread throughout the city, looting and injuring people, destroying buildings, and even starting to set fires. Hua Xi and Gongsun Shi couldn't control the situation at all, and the two were helpless and could only watch as people poured into the homes of the innocent.
At the critical moment, Hua Yuan led the office guards to block the way of the rioters, and the army cleanly killed some thugs with teeth and claws, and finally suppressed the group of people who were ready to kill.
On the other side, the five ministers and their clansmen wept on the shore of Suishui, and they camped in the same place that night, but they couldn't sleep all night. The city of Shangqiu was brightly lit and noisy, and the Song people were transporting corpses all night. Early the next morning, Hua Yuan sent someone to inform them of the destruction of the Dang clan, and at the same time asked them to return to the city to take charge.
But after a long night's suffering, the five doctors had lost hope in their political future, and they could not imagine how the ghosts of the slaughtered people would accuse them to heaven; I don't know how to work with the executioners; It is also unclear how the Chinese people with the blood of the Huan clan on their hands will treat themselves.
Based on these thoughts, he told the messengers that they were ready to go into exile. After the envoy left, Yufu persuaded everyone: "There have been many serious upheavals in the history of the country, but only this time has been handled most appropriately and the losses are the least. The Dang clan brought about their own destruction, and we have no sin, so why should we go into exile? Although Dangze belongs to the Huan clan, we and Hua are both descendants of King Tang! Why do you have to divide Huan's and Dai's? ”
After a night, the Chinese people also regained their composure, and the excitement disappeared, replaced by worry and fear. People surrounded Hua Yuan, and said worriedly that the children of the five doctors were gathering on Suishui, and their strength was enough to destroy half of the capital. They asked if the five ministers would retaliate against them after they returned, and if they would also get the fate of the Dang clan.
Hua Yuan comforted the Chinese people in his mouth, but he was more nervous than others in his heart. Hua Yuan received the news and went to the city to take a look, but saw that the five ministers were still in place, not knowing what they were waiting for and planning.
He said to Hua Xi worriedly: "I'm afraid that the five doctors have a different heart!" If you can't appease the Huan clan as soon as possible, the fear of the Chinese people will become heavier and heavier, and they will eventually regard the Huan clan as an enemy! I'm going to give the five doctors one last chance, and it's up to them whether they can grasp it! ”
He also said to the city defense chief, "If the Huan clan does not enter the city with me, you will close the city gate and strengthen the garrison." With that, he drove himself to the shore and persuaded the five to enter the city at once.
Xiang Weiren said the same thing to Hua Yuan, but Yufu asked Hua Yuan to give them a little more time to think about it.
Hua Yuan said: "The Song country is the Song country of the Song people, and the emotions of the people are not something I can control." If you still need to think about it, then you better hurry, because there is a limit to the patience of the Chinese people! ”
After Hua Yuan finished speaking, he rode his horse and turned to leave. Yufu said: "If you don't follow the right division back to the city now, I'm afraid there will be no more chance!" The right master's gaze wandered and his tone was stern, which was born of a different heart. ”
The others were skeptical, and Yufu said, "If he didn't want to accept us, he would definitely gallop into the city now!" ”
Everyone climbed up and looked, and sure enough, they saw Hua Yuan's wheels rolling and speeding towards the city gate. The five ministers finally realized the seriousness of the problem, and they subconsciously took immediate action - jumping on the chariot to chase Hua Yuan.
But the five ministers reacted too slowly and acted too late, and people watched Hua Yuan gallop into the east gate, and the city gate immediately slammed shut; A moment later, Hua Yuan dressed in military uniform and led the army to the castle tower.
The five ministers had no choice but to stop advancing; After they discussed it, they all fled to the state of Chu.
Song State thus vacated three positions, Song Pinggong according to Hua Yuan's opinion, ordered Xiang Xu to be the left division, Lao Zuo to be Sima, and Le Yi to be Si Kou; Since the five Qings all belonged to the Huayuan faction, the political situation of the Song State quickly stabilized.
The following is the heinous and tragic incident of a prominent figure of the Jin Kingdom who was persecuted by Sanhe.
Bozong was a maverick among the ministers of the Jin State, he was upright and upright, and his speech was never embellished. When Yu Shu tortured and killed Bo Ji, the doctors all advocated forbearance and humiliation and waited for the coming day, but it was this person who criticized the Qing doctors, including Xun Lin's father and the Shihui, to the fullest, and aroused the Jin people's dormant sense of honor and martial spirit, which prompted Jin Jinggong to make up his mind to destroy the Lu Kingdom.
Every time Bozong went to court, his wife would tell him a thousand times: "'Thieves hate the master, and the people hate them,' and don't speak so bluntly, lest you be framed." Bozong always smiled and nodded, but as soon as he walked into the court, he threw Neizi's advice out of the clouds.
Bozong offended too many people up and down because of this, Jin Li frowned when he saw him, his political enemies hated him for not dying early, and his friends were afraid that he would suffer an unjustified disaster.
Since the Jin State implemented an open land policy, the ministers' enthusiasm for land reclamation was very high, and it was common for the land to be reclaimed without reporting. Successive Jin marquis have supervised private behavior, but those who dare to break the law and discipline are all high-powered Shiqing doctors, and some people are not even willing to provoke Jin marquis, so many investigations have failed.
