Although Song Yuangong suffered a big loss, this matter is not over. The ministers did not dare to accuse Song Yuangong in person, so they put the crime on those officials, accusing them of falsely passing on the king's order and stealing it; Demand that their sins be punished. Song Yuangong was forced to be helpless, so he had to punish those unlucky people.

Song Yuangong did not learn a lesson, but strengthened his determination to fight the major families to the end; He wanted to use the power of his brothers Gongzi Yin, Gongzi Yurong and others to expel Huahai, Xiang Ning and others, and use them to replace the deportees.

A series of actions of Song Yuangong were strongly resisted by Hua and Xiang, and the relationship between the two sides became very tense as a result. And when this situation came, Song Yuangong began to formulate a plan to eliminate Hua and Xiang.

Hua and Xiang passed the news to the two of them to the inside line placed in the palace. Hua Hai, Hua Ding and Xiang Ning conspired and decided to strike first to drive the guy with an ugly appearance and a pickled heart from the throne.

The action was quickly put into action. One day in June in the summer, Washington suddenly released news that Huahai suddenly became seriously ill (Xiang Ning was in his prime, singing and dancing every day, saying that he was sick and no one believed him; And Huahai has entered old age), or will die soon.

Song Yuangong was overjoyed and said: "God help me!" If he died, it would have been easy to oust Fahrenheit. He sent several brothers to "visit" Huahai to find out what was going on.

However, this is exactly the trap laid by Huahai, and the sons threw themselves into the net, and they all became turtles in the urn.

Hua Shi successively killed Gongzi Yin, Gongzi Yurong, Gongzi Zhu, Gongzi Gu, Gongsun Yuan, and Gongsun Ding (they were all ready to replace the major secretaries after the deed). Since Xiang Sheng and Xiang Xing belonged to the Xiang clan, Huahai controlled them and left them to Xiang Ning to dispose of.

Song Yuangong finally noticed the abnormality and immediately closed the palace. When the rebels saw that their plot had been revealed, they no longer hid their ambitions. The two major clans sent a large number of clan armor to Manshang Qiu to find and attack the enemy. The victims resisted in a hurry, using whatever they caught, and some fought with their bare hands, many were killed, and among the victims were citizens who happened to pass by.

There was chaos in the capital, and the panic caused by the chaos spread rapidly; The nobles who could not figure out the situation either held out, or fled to the palace, and some fled directly outside the city.

Gongzicheng, Gongsun Ji, Le She, Xiang Yi and others fled to Zheng State, along with Wang Zijian, Wang Sunsheng and Wu Zixu, the sons of King Chuping who had just fled from Chu State to Shangqiu.

Song Yuangong was furious and summoned the city guards and doctors to attack Hua's army. The clans of the Hua and Xiang clans were forced to withdraw, and they occupied a large area of the city with the two families as the center, and confronted the public office forces. At that time, Song Yuangong did not know that the sons and grandsons who had been ensnared had been killed, thinking that they had just become hostages of Hua's. The Song and Yuan referendums were bogeyed and did not dare to rashly launch an attack.

After that, Song Yuangong made a very brave move, he entered Washington with only one historian to negotiate (because it was useless to bring as many guards as he wanted).

When he walked into the front yard of the Hua family, Song Yuangong saw corpses lined up on the ground, covered with blood. He couldn't help but be shocked, ran to the front quickly, knelt on the ground, recognized everyone's faces with painful expressions, called the names of the victims, and finally hugged one of them and cried loudly, cursing Huahai and Xiang Ning while crying.

Huahai regretted killing too early, so much so that he lost many important hostages; But Song Yuangong took the initiative to send it to the door, so he simply detained him.

Prince Luan saw that his father had not gone out for a long time, and he also entered Washington alone. With his unremitting efforts, the two sides finally reached an agreement: first, Hua and Xiang took out half of the fiefs to compensate the victims' families; Second, Huahai, Huading, and Xiangning voluntarily went into exile; 3. The office will no longer hold the murderers accountable.

After the bloodshed, Hua Shi obtained Prince Luan, Gongzi Chen, and Gongzi Di as hostages, and Song Yuan Gong obtained Hua Hai's son Hua Wuqi, Hua Ding's son Hua Qi, and Xiang Ning's son Xiang Luo as hostages.

After the treaty was reached, the tension of the confrontation eased slightly. Hua and Xiang's retainers can go out of the house and go to the fiefdom with the master's warrant to go through the handover procedures. Song Yuangong and his wife would come to Washington together every day and watch their sons finish eating before leaving; Fahrenheit also waited for the sons to finish eating and saw off the monarch and his wife every day before eating.

Hua Hai felt that life was getting more and more difficult, and Song Yuangong had been prevaricating and delaying the fulfillment of the obligations he had promised under one excuse or another, and even prevented Hua from fulfilling the obligations they had undertaken. Song Yuangong's eyes also showed more and more anxiety and anger, and every time he looked at his son eating, he seemed to say: "Eat, eat more, eat enough to go on the road." ”

Hua Hai finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he said to Xiang Ning: "Taking the prince as a hostage is already a great disrespect, we can't humiliate the monarch anymore, I think it's better to send the princes back and run away." ”

Xiang Ning said: "The use of the crown prince as a hostage is entirely because the monarch has no credit, and if we hand them over, we will soon die without a place to bury." ”

Song Yuangong really didn't want to delay any longer, he wanted to fight happily. His biggest scruple now is not the crown prince, but Hua Feisui.

Hua Feisui is Hua Hai's younger brother, the official residence of the Great Sima, and the main military power. Hua Fei was quite estranged from Hua Hai, so he did not participate in the rebellion. Song Yuangong wanted to order him to attack his family, but he was afraid that he would disobey the order or defect to the rebels, so he never made up his mind.

Hua Fei then had three sons: the eldest son Hua Xiang served as the young Sima, the second son Hua Duo served as the imperial scholar of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the third son Hua Deng became Huahai's pawn and was also trapped in the Huahai Mansion at this time.

Hua Fei was very fond of Walden, and felt sorry for him, and washed his face with tears almost every day. He stood at the door of Hua's door many times, calling for Walden's name and asking him to leave Huahai; Walden stood on a high platform and bowed to him, crying that he would be with his uncle for life and death. Every time he returned in vain, Hua Fei begged Song Yuangong to give him another chance to convince his son.

Although Song Yuangong was worried that launching an attack would force Hua Feisui to change his position, the matter had come to this point, and he had to have a showdown with Hua Feisui.

Hua Fei suffered a lot and wanted to get a result as soon as possible. He said: "The minister does not dare to be greedy for life and fear death, and he will not think about his son." But the prince and the sons are still inside, and this is what the ministers are afraid of. ”

Song Yuangong was satisfied with his reply, so he said: "They have a life and death, but they can't continue to be insulted!" The detention of the crown prince is a great shame for the office. ”

Hua Fei immediately ordered the sergeants to erect several high platforms, so that the commander could observe the terrain from a high vantage point; He demolished some houses and requisitioned others; Some roads were blocked, and some roads were opened. Hua Fei then opened a circular barrier to isolate the area occupied by the rebels from the outlying residences, which on the one hand was convenient for the display of the army and on the other hand, it also served as a fire prevention. He stationed a lot of soldiers at some key points, and in the end, he still left a way out for Hua and Xiang, which is the so-called "three missing one".
