Chapter 519 Rebellion

At the banquet of the royal palace, the three giants of the general army eunuchs of Ningxia Town and Zhou Dong, the minister of Dali Temple, were killed. The remaining officials dared to express their support.

In the dark night, the royal guards and the rebel army under Zhou Ang and He Jin made a big move to carry out martial law searches on all the streets and alleys of Ningxia Town, knocking on the gongs, which made people panic. Dozens of royal staff read Jing's difficult articles loudly along the street. The sleeping people got up one after another and listened to the news in panic. They were stunned and frightened.

Soon after, fierce fighting broke out in the city. The soldiers and horses in the city were not completely controlled by He Jin and Zhou Ang. Finally, more than a dozen generals of the governor's government and the generals government office gathered thousands of soldiers and began to resist. The two sides fought fiercely for several hours. Finally, because they were outnumbered, the rebels defeated the soldiers and horses who resisted.

Several important intersections and squares in the north city were full of corpses and blood. Hundreds of houses caught fire and burned, screaming for killing in the middle of the night. In the morning, the collapsed house emitted blue smoke, and the night of blood and fire finally calmed down.

In the morning, Qiu Yu led 6,000 soldiers and horses of the former guard into the city to accept the adaptation of the king of Anhua. In order to prevent changes, the king of Anhua dispersed all the soldiers and horses of the three guards of Ningxia, redistributed them, and appointed He Jinzhou Ang and Qiu Yu as generals to command the three armies of the rebels. And sent cavalry to copy the biography to the cities around Ningxia Town. He Qin, a thousand households in Pingluo City, Wei Zhen, Yang Tai, etc., the guard of Shizuishan Village, expressed their support. By noon, the whole town fortress under the jurisdiction of Ningxia Town was cleared and put into the hands of the king of Anhua.

On the Yamen Square in the north of the city, the king of Anhua, dressed in military uniform, gathered soldiers and horses to hold an oath meeting. The people of the whole city were driven here to watch. Under the attention of tens of thousands of people, the heads of Jiang Han, An Weixue, Zhou Dong, Li Zeng and others raised their flag on the flying dragon flagpole. The king of Anhua worshipped heaven and sacrificed the earth and divided the official position. He was very busy and lived until the end of time before the ceremony dispersed.

The big search in the city also began. Tens of thousands of rebels carried out intensive searches in the city to find the whereabouts of Song Nan and others who suddenly disappeared. Qiu Yu was active and personally asked for orders to search the south city, and led hundreds of confidants to search the south city. Naturally, nothing was found.

After an hour or two, Qiu Yu waved his hand and ordered the collection of troops. No one noticed that he led 500 soldiers when he went, but the number of soldiers increased by 200 when he returned to the barracks. The city was full of noise. At this time, it was the most chaotic, and who paid special attention to these.

The extra 200 people were Song Nan and 200 Jinyiwei Riding School. Qiu Yu brought more than 200 sets of armor of ordinary guards and asked Song Nan and others to change their clothes. They burned all the changed Jinyiwei clothes. Two hundred of them sneaked back to Qiu Yu's camp in the brigade and hid.

The smooth progress of this plan was also due to the negligence of King Anhua. Although King Anhua reorganized the soldiers and horses of the three of them, the Qinwei camp did not move at all. Although he wanted to do so, the extremely obvious distrust such as the adaptation of the Qinwei camp should not be done at this time, and it was also because of this that he was drilled by Qiu Yu and Song Nan. In the gap, he was able to escape the big search.

Song Nan was not found in the whole city. The anger of King Anhua can be imagined. The top of the five flying dragon flags was deliberately vacated by Song Nan, which was left for Song Nan. Yang Yiqing did not come back after leaving the city. Now he knows that Song Nan and hundreds of flag schools are looking for him in the city, teaching him how not to be angry.

So he spread his anger on Jiang Feng, a thousand households in Jinyiwei, Ningxia Town, and more than 500 flag schools led by him. In the evening, Jiang Feng and dozens of other Jinyi guards from thousands of households in Ningxia Town were taken to the streets and spread the news all over the city. Song Nan, who wanted to force him to appear. But in fact, Zhu Xiaoqi himself knew that even if Song Nan was in the city, he would not appear for these officials. Sure enough, dozens of heads, large and small, were cut down in turn, and Song Nan did not emerge.

The king of Anhua was still waiting to behead the flag schools on the street, and his men quickly stopped them. There were enough crazy killings today. Thousands of soldiers and horses loyal to the court and unwilling to rebel were killed, and hundreds of officials and their families were also killed. The people in Ningxia town were already panicked. Wouldn't it be even more panicked if the five hundred people who defected to the Jinyiwei Flag School were killed for no reason?

The prince's mood is understandable, but now is not the time to start the siege. The city needs to be fast and stable, because now the first consideration is how to strengthen the soldiers and horses, either break through the Yellow River, occupy Lingzhou, sweep the northwest, or actively prepare to resist the upcoming encirclement of the imperial court, instead of here for Song Nan, who was hiding, was angry.

King Anhua regained his senses and imprisoned all the Jinyiweiqi School. On the one hand, he sent people to continue to search Song Nan's traces in the city, and on the other hand, he sent General He Jin and Vice General Ding Guang to lead 5,000 troops to the Yellow River Ferry and occupy the West Cliff Ferry on the north bank of the Yellow River.

Two days later, He Jin's army arrived at the west cliff ferry of the Yellow River. In order to implement the prince's strategy of first salute and then soldiers, He Jin ordered a military staff to cross the river to Lingzhou with Jingnan and Wen to persuade Huang Zheng, the commander of Lingzhou, to surrender, to force Huang Zheng to surrender.

After cutting off the staff's ears and nose, Huang Zheng drove him back and brought back a letter scolding the rebels. He Jin was furious and ordered him to report to King Anhua. King Anhua was furious and immediately ordered to gather troops to cross the river to seize Lingzhou.

......

Song Nan and Yang Yiqing, who were delivered by fast horses, arrived in the capital on the evening of the 22nd of the first lunar month. Zhengde, who had dinner, was strolling in the back garden of his bedroom. Recently, Zhengde's mood has been very bad. On the night, the leopard house in Xiyuan was caused by dense lighting, which burned dozens of beautiful houses into white ground. The strange flowers, plants, rare birds and animals raised inside were also burned out, and even the most favorite Ma's sister-in-law were burned to death. Fortunately, Zhengde's painstaking efforts** to go boat that night. On the lake, looking at the reflection of the fireworks lamp from the angle of the surface of the water, it was not hurt at all when the fire broke out.

Because of this, the place where the fun was located was destroyed. Although Liu Jin promised to rebuild it for Zhengde, where it could be built for a while. In addition, Ma's sister-in-law was burned to death, Zhengde was depressed. In the past few days, he stayed in the Qianqing Palace to remember and recite some sour poems to commemorate.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, something big is not good." A little eunuch stumbled in from the round door and almost plunged into the arms of Liu Jin standing at the door.

Liu Jin raised his hand and slapped him. He beat the little eunuch half a circle and scolded, "What's so panicked about something that has no rules? The emperor has skinned you."

The little eunuch covered his face and saw the person in front of him clearly. He quickly lowered his head and said, "Mr. Liu, it's not a big deal."

"What's the matter, your parents are dead?"

"No... cabinet elders, civil and military officials all entered the palace. They have been waiting to meet outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace."

"Are they full? It's getting dark. What are you going to see when you come to the palace?

"It is said that the prince of Anhua, Ningxia Town, rebelled."

"What? Nonsense, do you want to die?" Liu Jin opened his eyes wide and thought he had heard it wrong and scolded angrily.

"It's true. Yang Ting and the lord want me to quickly communicate with the emperor and discuss countermeasures. How dare I talk nonsense about such things."

Liu Jin's heart pounded, and the blood on his head was about to faint. He understood that the little eunuch could not fool around on such a big event. He calmed down and looked back at Zhengde, who was standing on the pavilion in the distance and looking at Zhengde, who was sighing sadly in the remnant lotus snow pond under the pavilion. He waved his hand and said, "Let all the adults go to the Fengtian Hall first to wait. Let's report it to the emperor."

The little eunuch nodded and wiped his sweat. Liu Jin quickly walked to Zhengde and raised his head under the pavilion and called softly, "Your Majesty, your Majesty."

Zhengde seemed to have never heard of it, and muttered in his mouth: "I remember Xiaoping's first sight, and his two words were Luo Yi. He said lovesickness on the pipa string. At that time, the bright moon was there, and he once looked at the colorful clouds. Oh, you two died miserably. I'm so sad..."

Liu Jin took a few steps to the pavilion and whispered, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, I have a big report."

Zhengde turned around and said angrily, "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me? I don't want to listen to big things. My Ma Meiren and Wang Meiren are dead, and I'm not in the mood to listen to big things.

Liu Jin whispered, "All civil and military officials are waiting for the emperor in the Fengtian Hall."

Zhengde said angrily, "These annoying people can't stop? What kind of hall are you going to now?

"Your Majesty... there was a rebellion in the northwest, and the prince of Anhua... rebelled."

"..." Zhengde looked at Liu Jin with his mouth open and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Your Majesty... The emperor is angry. The news is from the cabinet, and the specific situation is not clear to the maidservants. Please move to the Fengtian Hall and ask for details."

Liu Jin saw that Zhengde's face suddenly became bloodless and his body was crumbling. He quickly reached out to hold Zhengde's arm.

Zhengde was stunned for a long time and suddenly shouted, "What are you still doing? Help me go to Fengtian Hall, Prince Anhua... Is that Zhu Xiaoqi?

"It's the emperor, it's him."

"This old man, how dare he do such a rebellious thing? By the way, haven't you ever asked him to expand the number of guards?"

Liu Jin's heart was cold and said calmly, "Your Majesty, let the maidservant play this matter in detail later. It's important to discuss it first."

Zhengde shook off Liu Jin's arm and said in a low voice, "If you don't explain this to me clearly, I can't forgive you." After saying that, he strode down the gazebo and hurried away.

Liu Jin stood stiff for a long time in a supportive posture. A little eunuch reminded him, "Your Majesty, the emperor has gone up."

Liu Jin woke up and quickly went down from the gazebo and hurriedly chased after him.
