Chapter 97: die a martyr

Recently, the king is not very peaceful. Whether it is the court harem or the tea house and academy, they are talking about one thing-Wang Lan has risen to rebel.
Some people think that Chu Jinglan is an angry confidant, and some people think that he has been planning for a long time and took the opportunity to attack. In short, there are different opinions and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. Until the Shence army issued a message to all the state capitals and wrote the ten points of Chu Sanghuai. The guilt and the content of the first emperor's will, the people know the truth.
Not treason, but treason.
The entire Chu Kingdom was in shock, and all parties reacted differently, but it did not affect the battle situation. Chu Jinglan led the Shence Army all the way to a broken bamboo, plus Meng Xuan's Northern Army and Chuzheng River Youzhou The defending army supported him, and within three months he reached Jiangbei. Wang Jun retreated steadily and retreated to the last line of defense in Jiangbei-Lushan Natural Hazard.
The so-called good time and place are like this. In the past six years, Chu Sanghuai has been engaged in heavy civil service. The people have long been unable to bear it. When Chu Jinglan will send troops, many righteous men will come to join the army, like a tiger with wings. Almost all the state army on the road to the royal capital was scattered, and some were able to resist and fight. After several hard battles, they suffered big losses due to insufficient supply. Chu Sanghuai was furious and cut off the new recruits. The Hubu Shangshu, however, couldn't take out a couple of silvers to pay for the army.
Fortunately, there is still a king's clan left in the four great families, who usually go in and out, and collect countless wealth. At the critical moment, you have to support Chu Sanghuai. Although the two sides of the queen's death are almost broken, Chu Jinglan will be After the emperor, they couldn't please, so they could only swallow their money out.
Half of the money fell into the hands of King Tao. The reason was simple. The 300,000 king army sent out to fight the horror of Chu, and there was a Yehuai ceremony in the south of the Yangtze River that was quickly leading the army of Guanzhong north, the guards of Liuzhou and Qinzhou. The army has been defeated by him one after another, and he is about to break through the Guanbei defense line. If he is not sent to stop him, I am afraid that he will hit the foot of the king in two days.
Has been embarrassed on all sides.
At this moment, Chu Sanghuai was already overwhelmed. He didn't expect that killing a Ye Huaiyang would cause a chain reaction, and the country that taught him would collapse!
In fact, it was not that he hadn't scrupulously spent the night at the ceremony, but the Ye family’s direct line was all in his grasp, so he put his heart down to solve Ye Huaiyang. Unexpectedly, after Jitian came back, someone suddenly reported that the people of the Ye family were in broad daylight. The next disappeared. He was so angry that he killed the imperial guards in front of the court with a cane, but in the end he didn't figure out how they disappeared.
Under the continuous frustration, he has completely lost control, and he will kill at every turn. The harem and the court seem to be shrouded in dark clouds, and people are panicked. If anyone is afraid of death, I am afraid that the forbidden army commander Zhang Yin.
The steady sound of footsteps slammed the stone bricks in front of the imperial study room. Zhang Yin walked in sideways under the guidance of the eunuch, kowtowing: "See the emperor for the humble position."
Chu Sanghuai raised his head, his expression still cold, forming a huge pressure in this square inch of the place, teaching people not to act rashly, but his eye sockets were sunken, his face turned red, his face was strangely white, there was an indescribable pathology. The posture that used to easily play people between the palms is gone, only the mania that can't be concealed.
"What's the progress?"
He didn't call up, and Zhang Yin naturally didn't dare to move. He just straightened up slightly and replied: "Back to the emperor, during this period of time when he was watching Master Yue in his humble position, his words and deeds were all normal, and there was nothing suspicious."
As soon as the voice fell, a good azure lotus lamp smashed in front of him, and the fragments splashed all over him.
"Stupid! It's suspicious because it's normal!"
Chu Sanghuai was holding on to the table and panting, as if the action just took him a lot of effort. The little wanted to go up and help but was flicked away by him. The wide sleeves fell down again wherever he went, instantly. There is already a mess around Jian Yuan.
No one dared to speak out again.
Chu Sanghuai still did not calm down, his eyes fixed on Zhang Yin's head, as if to stare out a hole.
Not long ago, the message spread all over the world. He learned that the will had arrived in Chu Jinglan's hands. In his frustration, he suddenly remembered that the queen had mentioned it to him. Ye Huaiyang seemed to hand over the will to an old official to distinguish the authenticity. He Zhang Yin was immediately asked to deploy a manpower to launch a surveillance operation, but more than two months passed, all the investigations were completed and nothing was found.
In the past six years since he became the throne, he has cleaned up all the people of the first emperor. Now there are only a few people who have the honor to see the handwriting of the first emperor. Of course, it is impossible for Wang Ying and Wang Jian. Now, he thought about it and thought about Yue Ting unexpectedly.
Yejia has been loyal to Chu Jinglan for some time. Ye Huaixin has been a student of Yue Ting for so long. He couldn’t have been unaware of it, plus what he said when Chu Jinglan went to Shuzhong. , And his overexcited expression when Huaiyang was about to be killed on the day and night of the sacrifice, which is very suspicious. The most important thing is that Pei Yuanshu has been missing for a long time. Sent out like this.
Based on various speculations, he had to start to re-examine Yue Ting, thinking that Yue Ting was forced to succumb at the beginning, and he did not intend to reuse it. He once planned to depose him after waiting for the throne to stabilize. However, Yue Ting showed in many things later. Amazingly loyal and cruel, even squeezing out the original Zhong Shuling that was not under his control. This move was quite satisfactory to him. Slowly, he began to hand over many unseen things to Yue Ting, half a temptation and a half. In terms of measurement, Yue Ting was not afraid of scolding or minding the blood on his hands. They all did very well, and Chu Sanghuai began to trust him.
If Yue Ting and Chu Jinglan had really put him together in this matter, then he had really underestimated them. For six years, this dark chess had been placed by his side for six full years, and he hadn't noticed it at all. Damn it!
The more Chu Sanghuai thought about it, the more he couldn't calm down, the corners of his eyes twitched, and a trace of ruthlessness was overflowing.
"Go get him to me, no matter what method is used, I want to know the answer."
He couldn't wait any longer!
Zhang Yin raised his head slightly and hesitated for a moment. "The emperor, Master Yue is the minister of the humerus. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding in this. Besides, I will go to court in a while. I am afraid that I will be alarmed by sending someone to arrest him. Manchu civil and military..."
"Then wait for the next time to tie me to the dungeon! I don't believe it and can't ask the truth!"
Chu Sanghuai suddenly yelled, the table was stunned, and the hood was forcibly pressed. The little beside him trembled with fright, and Zhang Yin. There was also a bit of chill in his heart, but he only said a humble job and went out. The moment the door was closed, Xiao Seqiufeng blew in from the gap in the armor, making him feel cold. He looked up at the gloomy sky and walked outside the palace.
This autumn is colder than before. It’s only at the beginning of November. The streets are full of hurried pedestrians with their sleeves up. Seeing those shrunken hands and feet, they seem to want to hide their heads in their clothes. it is good.
The door of the Yue Mansion was quietly opened in the silence, an official boot stretched out, and the coachman waiting in front of the door immediately bent to salute. After a short while, a dark blue figure stepped down the steps and waved to him. At first glance, the figure was slender, and the official robe was thin and stiff, and he became more vigorous and strong.
"My lord, do you enter the palace immediately?"
Yue Ting nodded slightly as he was about to board the carriage, somehow he paused, and when he looked sideways, there seemed to be a dark figure in the corner that shrank suddenly, as fast as an illusion. He looked at it for a moment and suddenly said: "Let's go."
The coachman immediately gave way. After he got in, he concealed the door before waving his whip. With the intermittent screaming, the carriage drove in the direction of Xuan'anmen at a constant speed. The road was unimpeded, and the time to burn incense was up.
Yue Ting got off the car and walked into the palace gate and walked straight to the Jinluan Temple along the spacious bluestone avenue. When he met three or two courtiers, they nodded to him one after another. He just smiled lightly, and then stepped into the palace.
At the beginning of the chen, the court meeting officially began.
All the memorials in the past two months have basically revolved around the war, and today is no exception. It’s just that Chu Sanghuai’s attitude is a bit strange. Both the frontline battle and the strategy to respond to the enemy are over in a few words. It is completely different from the usual consideration. After deliberation, there was only a word abruptly at the end.
"Yue Qing, do you think this can defeat the enemy?"
Yue Ting slowly raised his head, and stopped when he moved his gaze to the golden dragon chair. It was as far-reaching and long as ever, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
"Back to the emperor, the minister thought it might be a try."
An extremely simple answer, without any preference or position, is his usual style.
Chu Sanghuai suddenly realized that it was this style of handling that allowed him to stand tall in the court. Even the noble family never embarrassed him. In the final analysis, he avoided all the sharpness and conflicts of interest and changed everything. Therefore, only in front of Chu Sanghuai will he show his loyalty and shrewdness.
But now he can be sure that loyalty is only Yue Ting's protective color, and he has long recognized other masters.
Chu Sanghuai sneered inwardly, but said: "If this is the case, Zhu Qing will retreat if nothing else."
When the ministers heard this, they all rushed to retire. Unexpectedly, Yue Tingchu didn't move in the middle, and said slowly, "The emperor, the minister has what to play."
Everyone's movements were stopped, and Chu Sanghuai narrowed the eyes of the yin-bird before spitting out two words: "Quan playing."
Yue Ting lifted his hem and knelt on the spot, and spit out a few words sonorously: "The minister pleased the emperor to abdicate today!"
As soon as this remark came out, the originally peaceful court immediately set off an uproar, and many ministers had their jaws dropped. However, more people felt that they were taken for granted. After all, after Ye Huaiyang's trouble, the ministers' hearts were already unstable.
Chu Sanghuai didn't expect that Yue Ting would come to him like this, and immediately shouted and shouted: "Presumptuous! Take him down for me!"
The order was issued to the outside of the hall, and the imperial army immediately surrounded from under the corridor. Yue Ting seemed to have not heard the sound of the saber and the armor, and continued calmly: "The minister has been confused for a lifetime, and now he can finally say something. To be honest, the edict held by the emperor when he succeeded to the throne was forged. Zhongshu Province never received a document from the first emperor’s establishment from beginning to end. The only remaining handwritten edict also fell to Xie Yuan when the emperor was poisoned. Here, it has now returned to King Lan."
"The demon words confuse the crowd!" Chu Sanghuai jumped into thunder and pointed at him with a furious wave of sleeves, "Come here, kill this rebel for me!"
"Axiom is right and wrong, and the emperor can kill the minister but can't stop the people. The people who are the rebels and the Mingjun have their own opinions. Moreover, now that the prince has hit Jiangbei, he will soon rule the world. Why not?"
Having said that, Yue Ting looked up to the sky and smiled, and suddenly a cluster of sharp blades pierced into the body from behind, he vomited a mouthful of blood, his body was still straight, iron-boned, and majestic as a mountain.
"The minister finally has a face... to see the first emperor..."
Another sword pierced into his chest, he smiled and closed his eyes, his anger was on the spot, and the blood was dripping all over the floor, dyeing the temple of Jinluan.
The officials were shocked, and the cold-sect scholars rushed up with red eyes, and was crushed to the outside of the hall by the forbidden army. Chu Sanghuai was so angry that his facial features were distorted when he saw it, and he roared bitterly: "Give me his head Hang up to the city wall! Whoever dares to make trouble will do so!"
The atmosphere in the hall was dead and heavy, and officials were dragged down one after another. The rest of them suppressed their inner fears, watching their surroundings like a frightened bird, for fear that the next one would be their turn, and Wang Ying and Wang Jian They glanced at each other, and a bad premonition emerged in their hearts.
Internal and external troubles, the heart is lost, I'm afraid that nothing can stop Chu Kingdom from changing into heaven.
