Chapter 304 Eve of the Great War
The Southern Army sergeant in Pingxingfu Town mutiny, Feng Ziliang, the governor of Pingxing, was killed, and the governor of Pingxing was detained. A series of news spread like wings.
Yunshang also felt very depressed about this. That day, she wanted to keep Feng Ziliang's life, and even expected to coerce him to defend the city together. However, it turned out that she was just a fantasy. When both sides had met red and each had their own death and injury, it was already an endless ending. Zhu Fugui will never rest assured that Feng Ziliang will stay in the world, and even Feng Ziliang's guards have not been let go.
Although after Yunshang controlled Feng Ziliang, the guards lost the courage to resist, Zhu Fugui, who was full of blood, still ordered the massacre. At that time, the inner hall of the governor's office was simply a hell of Shura! The flesh and blood flew, the heads rolled around, and the smell of fishy blood reminded Yunshang many years later, and it was still at the end of his nose.
The Yulin Guard led by Kong Jie responded to her in due course. They came to help under the guidance of Lian Zhun, and the Jinyiyu Forest Army had secretly controlled the situation in Pingxingfu. If it hadn't been for their existence, Feng Ziliang would have already taken the Zhennan Army into his pocket, and he would not have been forced to force the generals of the Zhennan Army to bite each other.
Even the governors and guards who were about to fight against the water were all the spies left by the Jinyiyu Forest Army before. They met Yunshang with the contact code, which made a counterattack and took the governor Feng Ziliang.
Only then did Yunshang know that in this world, the original power of the Jinyi Yulin Army was terrible. It's not just what's rumored outside. Red clothes travel through the market, extorting people and assassinating officials. More importantly, where are there no people in the army, government offices and civilian residences? It's really that everyone is in danger and worried.
No wonder Lu Can, the Northern Marquis, has presided over the government for 16 years and has not fallen. Even as unfathomable as the emperor Feng Ziqi, in the battle against him, he is also step by step, careful to guard against, and use his own sister to make the other party compromise and hand over the military power.
It's just that the work of Jinyiyu Linjun had completely come to a halt after the death of the former emperor. If Yunshang hadn't brought the beautiful man with many dreams to Pingxingfu, it would not have set off an underworld** again, triggering a series of political waves later. At this point, I really don't know whether Yun Shang's battle of Pingxing is meritorious or demerit.
However, Yunshang didn't have time to think so much at that time. The governor's government and the Zhennan army could not hide it from the crowd. Many soldiers fled the city overnight, and there was also a "barefoot army" in Fengcheng. Yunshang doesn't know how long the ancient city of Pingxing in the wind and rain can be supported.
"General Lu, what are we going to do next?" Zhu Fugui asked Lu Shen respectfully, "Did you withdraw these soldiers overnight, or did you directly join Fengcheng?"
After Lu Shen saved his life in the inner hall, his attitude towards Lu Shen became so respectful, and he was the only one who was optimistic.
Yunshang shook her head with a wry smile. She originally planned to wait and see, or wait for Feng Ziliang's side to win, and then use the power of the Jinyi Yulin Army to control the situation. However, Lu Shen stood on the side of the Zhennan Army in advance. In this way, they won the victory. However, what they faced was... Such two ways?
I suddenly felt that it would be a good choice to occupy the mountain with Lu Shen and others.
Unexpectedly, Lu Shen smiled peacefully, "General Zhu doesn't have to worry about the imperial court to kill the second-grade. Although it's a big deal, it's not impossible. At present, in the situation in Pingxing Prefecture, General Lao Zhu still needs to be appeased. It is necessary to calm the hearts and minds of the army and the people, and make every effort to prepare the tools to defend the city and guard against the rebels in Fengcheng.
Zhu Fugui hesitated, "But Major General Lu, even if the city is guarded, can the court really forgive such a serious crime as killing the governor? Won't we rebel against the city?"
"To tell the truth, before you came here, your majesty gave me the sword of the emperor, and promised me that everything involved in asking traitors can be done cheaply." Lu Shen said calmly.
Yunshang sat aside quietly, but his heart was already turbulent. Feng Zifeng gave Lu Shen Tianzi Sword. Although she didn't know this, it was also a little credible. It may even be the "dragon Yin Sword". Lu Shen offered it to the emperor, and the emperor gave it to Lu Shen. However, it is a little sensational to kill the second class member and act cheaply.
You should know that all the governors are equipped with Shangfang's swords instead of the emperor. Holding a Shangfang sword, you can behead officials below the fifth grade, and suspend officials below the third grade on the spot. However, it is not said that you can kill second-grade senior officials without authorization, and even senior officials equipped with Shangfang's sword!
However, Yunshang will naturally not expose him. She knows that the purpose of what he said should be to appease Zhu Fugui, so that the Zhennan army can devote himself to the work of defending the city as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Yunshang also said with a smile, "Yes, General Zhu only disciplined the soldiers to publicize outside, saying that Yunshang and Lu Shen were ordered to be a thief and kill the rebel Feng Ziliang! On this side, please ask Major General Lu to write a chapter immediately, which is about today's matter. In addition, there is also something here in Yunshang. Please ask Major General Lu to send it to the holy listen with the seal.
Yunshang said, took out a small paper roll from his sleeve, unfolded it, and handed it to Lu Shen.
Lu Shen took it doubtfully. After looking at it a few times, he was full of joy and asked repeatedly, "Where did the princess get it?"
Yunshang but smiled and said no.
Zhu Fugui was still on the sidelines, so Lu Shen reached out and handed the paper roll to him. General Zhu, take a look, is it true?
Zhu Fugui took it with a doubtful face. Without looking at a few lines, his face had changed color. As he looked down more and more, the cold sweat went down his cheeks. "I'm afraid this thing... is true. Although the last general doesn't know much about the governor, what he knows and listens to what he has heard. "
Yunshang nodded in his heart. When this thing was still on the boat, Lian Zhun sorted it out and gave it to her. It is full of Feng Ziliang's bad deeds over the years: from his treachery and fierceness and inability to learn when he was a teenager; to later become a corrupt official, to form a party for personal gain, and to coerce bribes, mutilate innocents, extravagant corruption, and boundless greed... One by one, the evidence is conclusive, famous and surnames, even he has taken advantage of his family. The little concubine, when and where, the ugly thing that seduced any official was clearly recorded!
This is the power of Jinyi Yulin Army.
In fact, she doesn't have more than this kind of thing. Since she wants to go to Pingxing, all the officials with surnames in Pingxing Mansion have to sort out the information. Even this Zhu Fugui, who claims to be her "old acquaintance", has had the information in her hand for a long time, but before entering Pingxing Mansion, I don't think this person is so important, so I just look at it lazily.
***
On that day, Zhu Fugui looked at the thing and sweated like rain, while Lu Shen was smiling, and his eyes looking at Yunshang were a little more complicated.
"So, I'm responsible for the report here; General Zhu, let's arrange soldiers to guard the city now!" Lu Shen smiled and spoke, but there was an irresistible majesty in his words.
"Yes." Zhu Fugui unconsciously answered in the tone of his subordinates, turned his head and said to Yunshang, "Is Princess Wuyou here to accompany Major General Lu or follow her brother around?"
His intention is naturally to hope that Yunshang will go with him. After all, something happened to the governor's government. Relying on his strength alone, he is afraid that he can't suppress it. Moreover, let Yunshang be familiar in front of everyone, so that he can command the battle together tomorrow.
Yunshang is also a little hesitant. In her heart, she actually wants to be with Lu Shen. There are many things that need to be discussed together, and... with him, she feels more secure.
But she looked at Lu Shen's inquiry, but she didn't find the object to receive: the rebellious general, Major General Lu, quietly lowered his eyes and avoided Yunshang's sight.
Yunshang sighed and was about to go on a night tour with Zhu Fugui when suddenly the door of their study was knocked. The Yulin Guard guard guarding at the door reported, "Princess Wuyou, the guard Kong has something urgent to see."
The place they are now is the study of the Pingxing magistrate's office. When it comes to controlling the situation, of course, the governor of Shuzhong's government office is higher, but tonight, there has just been a bloody massacre there, so naturally it can't stay for a long time. After the governor of Pingxing was detained, he promised to cooperate with them and dedicate the magistrate's government office for their rest.
Lian Zhun and his party did not move here, but still lived in the Hesheng Inn at the South Gate.
Yunshang looked at Lu Shen and saw that he had no statement, so she ordered, "Let him come in."
Kong Jie is still dressed in white, with some indifference and legacy. After coming in, he only arched his hand to Yunshang, "Princess Wuyou, Mr. Lian Zhun, please ask Princess Wuyou to go there immediately."
Although Kong Jie is nominally Yun Shang's personal bodyguard, Yun Shang basically can't use him since he has accompanied the Yulin Guard. After all, if he fights alone, Kong Jie's ability may not be underestimated, but compared with the long-standing Yulin Guard, he is less vicious and calculating.
So before the ship arrived in Pingxing, Yunshang told him to pay close attention to the movement of Lian Zhun and protect his safety at any time. Well, it is natural to do to protect safety. Pay attention to the movement, but it is a little selfishness of Yunshang.
Yunshang almost beat the whip all the way and rushed back to Hesheng Inn. She didn't do anything to seize power this time. The main meritorious officials were Lu Shen and Lian Zhun. Among them, Lian Zhun's gossip was the top priority. She didn't want to make any mistakes at this time.
It's already Yin time, which is the darkest time before dawn. On the streets of Pingxingfu, there is a strange atmosphere. Zhu Fugui and other generals in the south of the town have not fully started the appeasement work after seizing the power. And most of the people of Pingxing do not know what has happened in Pingxing tonight; only the soldiers in twos and threes or twos have heard it. The inside story is that he is busy running away at such a night. However, the movement they made was not big, except... the screams of murder and the flames of arson came from some courtyards.
