Wedge exile
On the 23rd day of the first month of the 23rd year of Xuanheng in the Southern Tang Dynasty, the emperor died. On the sixth day of February of the same year, Crown Prince Liu Qing ascended the throne and changed his name to Qingtong. On the tenth day of March of Qingtong's first year, Liu Meng, the king of Jing, plotted a rebellion. Before the rebels were launched, Liu Meng, the king of Jing, was captured into the palace by the emperor's guard who had received the news. On the same day, King Jing committed suicide in front of the new emperor of Qingluan Hall.
The case of Jingwang's conspiracy has been trial for two months and has not come to fruition. Jiang Fang, a famous general of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was also the hereditary Marquis of Zhenbei, who was crowned by the previous emperor. He was also suspected of conspiracy against King Jing because of several worship posts found in the royal palace. All the men in the Jiang family, except for the children, were imprisoned.
Two months later, the case of King Jing's conspiracy was closed under the supervision of the emperor throughout the whole process. King Jing has died, and the princess and the children of King Jing have been demoted to commoners and will always be imprisoned. All officials and generals who can be confirmed to participate will be beheaded. Those involved in the serious case, including the family.
Although Jiang Fang, Marquis of Zhenbei, was not found any evidence related to the conspiracy of King Jing in the end. However, he did have several contacts with King Jing and was still found guilty. Although there is no evidence of Jiang's involvement in the case, it can be determined that the conspiracy should be a death penalty. However, the emperor felt that Jiang Fang had made many Hummer achievements for the Southern Tang Dynasty and ordered the Ministry of Criminal Justice to reduce his sentence at its discretion, leaving the life of the Jiang family.
However, the crime of death can be avoided, and the crime of life cannot be avoided. All the men of the Jiang family were convicted and exiled 3,000 miles to the northwest border as military households. Zhenbeihou Mansion was removed from the plaque and sealed.
On the official road north of the north gate of the capital, there is a thatched pavilion on the roadside 30 miles. Two military generals in plain clothes sat straight on the stone in the pavilion. The two looked south with solemn and worried eyes at the official road of people coming and going.
Outside the pavilion, there are two tall horses tied, and there is also a donkey board car, which is only covered with a slightly thick old mattress and a package. The shabby donkey car looks very inconspicuous compared with the tall horse next to it.
Suddenly, the two people in the pavilion stood up together and strode to the official road, staring at several broken criminals slowly coming from the south, and the team of soldiers leading horses on both sides of the criminal gradually approached. Seeing that the escorted soldiers did not ride horses, but walked with the old man in front of them, the worries in the eyes of the two soldiers were much lessened, and most of the faint anger on their bodies also disappeared.
"Your Excellency..." The two generals walked to the front Jiang Fang and saluted respectfully. With a shout, the two choked.
"Two generals, don't do this. Now that Jiang is already guilty, he really can't bear the 'adult' of you two. Jiang really can't afford it. Jiang Fang's eyes were full of relief and joy, but his cold tone was full of alienation. He bowed deeply to the two generals. The men of the Jiang family looked at it and immediately bowed deeply to salute.
"Your Excellency can't do this..." The two generals hurried forward and helped Jiang Fang up. One of them resisted the sadness and resentment in his heart and said quickly, "Your Excellency, the others can't come. Only the two of us are idle, and it doesn't matter to the overall situation. You don't have to worry about us. My lord, we dare not do too much, we only found a donkey car... The emperor knows that he will not annoy us because of this. My lord..."
Jiang Fang followed their eyes and looked at the donkey cart parked on the roadside next to the pavilion, turned his head and looked deeply at the two people in front of them. He nodded slowly and said coldly, "Jiang, thank you two generals."
His body has been injured countless times because he fought all year round when he was young. It is nearly a hundred miles away from the capital to the next town. After months of imprisonment, his body could no longer stand it. At this time, it was the end of the crossbow. If he keeps walking, he won't survive today.
"Your Excellency, take care." The two generals saw that Jiang Fang did not refuse, and the worries in their eyes were relieved. They also know that if they do too much, it will actually harm the Jiang family, so they will not stay. After a military salute, the two went directly to the pavilion to untie their horses and marched to the south of the capital.
After Jiang Fang watched the two people go away, the soldiers went to the pavilion and pulled the donkey cart over. Jiang Fang was not polite. He got into the car in silence, slowly leaned against the bulging burden, half lying on the thick mattress, sighed comfortably and gently, and closed his eyes.
Looking at Jiang Fang lying down, everyone slowly continued to set out north.
At night, everyone rested in a post 50 miles north of the capital. The next day, I walked for another day and came to another big city, Suzhou. Then, the Jiang family's family and children who came to Sucheng first finally joined the Jiang family's men who had entered the crime.
In the lobby of Sucheng Post Station, Jiang Yong, Jiang Fang's third son, looked sadly at his wife and the baby in her arms, and sighed deeply.
He is useless. He is not only a bastard in his identity, but also not as good as the two legitimate brothers in other aspects. His brain is not flexible enough, and his talent for learning martial arts is average. Unlike the eldest brother, he is not only familiar with the classics and history books, but also learns ten of his father's martial arts. Even if he doesn't compare with the eldest brother, even the second brother is not a little better than him. It's all learned from his father. The second brother has been able to compete with the eldest brother, but he can't even touch the corners of the eldest brother's clothes.
Therefore, Jiang Yong is the most peaceful in the Jiang family's distress this time. He had no official position before and was not expected. At this moment, the psychological gap is not too big. In his heart, as long as his father is still there, the Jiang family will not fall.
However, Jiang Yong couldn't figure out why his father, who had always been far away from King Jing, was found to have something to do with King Jing. Where on earth did those worship posts come from? Or did the father secretly do something that their brother didn't know?
In fact, even if he was implicated and convicted, Jiang Yong was not too resentful. He just doesn't understand how his always wise father can involve himself in such a big thing as conspiracy?
However, Jiang Yong is most distressed for his daughter who has just been born for less than half a year. She still doesn't understand anything, so she suffers like this with him... And his wife, I don't know how much trouble she has suffered by her two sisters-in-law since she married him in the past two years. Now, I have to suffer this crime with him...
"Yuer, I've wronged you..."
Li Shi, Jiang Yong's wife, was stunned, raised her head and looked at Jiang Yong clearly. She shook her head with a smile and said, "What did Brother Yong say? What's wrong with us as a husband and wife? It's just that Tingting is still too young, and she may suffer a little on the road.
Jiang Yong sighed again: "Yes, I just hope that those military men can remember their father's previous feelings and slow down the way. Fortunately, you and...our children don't have to commit crimes, otherwise..."
Li looked at Jiang Yong's eyes a little softer, and then said, "Well, the emperor is also lenient to our family..."
Because the lives of the whole family were saved, although the Jiang family was sad, they did not lose hope. Under the calm leadership of Jiang Fang, the head of China, they are not afraid of the unknown future. They firmly believe that the Jiang family will usher in glory again one day.
Until a month later, they all contracted the epidemic overnight. However, in ten days, almost all of the family members of the Jiang family died of illness. Except for Jiang Yong, there is not even a boy left in the whole family. And there is no women left. Even Jiang Yong's wife, Li, died of illness.
Jiang Yong watched his family leave him one after another, and his spirit and soul almost completely collapsed. He also got sick, but after taking the medicine, he was cured. They hired the best doctors in the whole Yuzhou, using the best medicine. Why is he cured, but the others are not cured?
Just when Jiang Yong was so desperate that he wanted to commit suicide, the doctor sent his rescued daughter to his arms. When he looked at his daughter, who was breathing weakly in his arms, but indeed still had a life, he seemed to see a little light in the endless darkness.
When his relatives left him forever, Jiang Yong was desperate, afraid, sad and resentful, and did not have the courage to live at all. Except for the little warmth in his arms, Jiang Yong felt that the whole world seemed to be frozen! He held his daughter tightly in his arms and cried. This warmth is his only salvation, which makes him understand that he can't die yet.
When his wife died, he promised her that he would protect his daughter and raise her.
When his father died, he also promised that as long as there was still a drop of blood in the Jiang family, he would take good care of it and continue the bloodline of the Jiang family.
When the eldest brother died, he told him that what they had was not the epidemic at all, but that they were poisoned. Someone wanted to harm their Jiang family. He promised his eldest brother that he would avenge the death of the family one day.
Even when the last second brother died, he was forced to promise to protect his life and live well. For the inheritance of the Jiang family, for the glory of the Jiang family, and for the blood hatred of the Jiang family!
Jiang Yong cried bitterly and kneaded his broken heart into one place. He has to live, and he must live well! For my daughter, and for the Jiang family!
In the capital, Liu Qing, the new emperor who was ambitious and ambitious to open up a prosperous generation, looked at the commander-in-chief who reported this news to him in consternation, and only felt a burst of darkness in front of him.
He had vaguely felt that Jiang's involvement in the conspiracy case was a little unreasonable. However, because he is worried that Jiang Fang's military achievements are too high, if he continues to respect the Jiang family, it may be a disaster in the future. That's why he made a mistake...
He just intends to hang the Jiang family for a few years and revert Jiang Fang and return the former glory to him. But now...
The emperor's face was ferocious, and his eyes stared at the commander of the guard who crawled on the ground, and his whole body trembled in shock and anger. He gritted his teeth and suppressed the mad anger in his chest and asked in a gloomy tone, "Jiang family, who is left?"
The commander of Qinwei replied sadly: "Go back to the emperor, Jiang's family, only Jiang Yong and his half-year-old daughter..."
The emperor suddenly widened his eyes and looked up angrily at the exquisite and gorgeous carvings on the roof of the palace, but there was no focus in his eyes and nothing could be seen. He took two steps back and sat back in the dragon chair.
jiang fang, that's the most powerful general in his Southern Tang Dynasty! The "living king" of Northern Mongolia changed his name! And his eldest son Jiang Feng will be another general in time. His second son, Jiang Yun, is also a rare general. Unexpectedly, all of them died... There was no more Zhenbeihou in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and there was no longer the "living hell king" who once seized five cities in five days in the eyes of the Northern Mongolian people!
Only the most ordinary Jiang Yong survived! Jiang Yong is a mediocre person in addition to some kung fu! Jiang's family, it's over! More than half of the generals in his court were brought out by Lord Jiang!
The emperor raised his hand and covered his eyes sadly. My father once said that Jiang Fang was loyal and could give him great trust. The three sons of the Jiang family have their own talents. After protecting the Jiang family, he protected the military defense in the northwest of the Southern Tang Dynasty. But he lost the Jiang family because of a little selfishness!
"Tig for me! Check it thoroughly from beginning to end! Dare to harm my loyal general secretly! I want him to be full of people and destroy his nine clans!"
The angry roar of the emperor echoed in the hall. The commander of the guard kneeling in the hall was tense all over his body, and his eyes staring at the ground suddenly opened a little. Then he kowtowed his head heavily and said loudly, "Weichen, obey the Holy Command!"
