Chapter 363: Upheaval
The assassination last night did not make Guan Pengju very worried. Everyone can see the current situation clearly. However, some people hope that Taizhou will ferment and break out, while others need him to wait quietly and admit what is happening in the Dayue Dynasty. Obviously, the Mongols did not want the hundreds of thousands of troops in Taizhou to be controlled by themselves quietly. Then, killing themselves is of course the easiest choice.
He rejected Guan Ning's request to stay in Cangwu and wait for the troops behind him to arrive, and then set off together. At least for nearly a month, the dignified Guan Pengju was scared by one or two assassins and hid in Cangwu like a turtle, which was really laughing at the world. What's more, even now, there are more than a hundred guards around him, and these guards are all elite soldiers. If Meng Yuan wants to kill him, he can only assassinate secretly. Could it be that they can organize a large group of troops?
However, under Guan Ning's insistence, he finally agreed to transfer five hundred town troops from Cangwu to Taizhou with him. Guan Ning was always worried. Yesterday the archer escaped and walked without a trace in a very short time. Obviously, the opponent had already arranged a way out for retreat, and someone responded. The archer's masterful archery skills made Guan Ning feel alert. Such a person is always dangerous. No one knows where he would hide. At what time, a cold arrow suddenly shot. He could only use people to surround General Guan. More than a hundred elite guards surrounded Guan Pengju, and the five hundred town troops were scattered on the periphery.
Guan Ning himself also knew that he had made some big fuss, such a formation. Unless the enemy hidden in the dark can mobilize regular troops to attack, ordinary assassination will not play any role and will not be their opponent.
No one thought that under such a warning, someone could attack Guan Pengju. Every time he took a step closer to Taizhou, he would be closer to the army. Moreover, at this time, Guan Zhenyun from Taizhou should have received the information and led his troops to pick up his father.
At the top of Hongshi Gorge, Su Can saw the Guan tribe that was approaching in the distance, and saw the increasingly clear Guan banner flying in the wind, Su Can clenched his fists tightly and slowly hid himself.
Soon, everything will be over.
Hongshi Gorge is more than ten miles long. After passing through the entrance of this gorge, you will enter Taizhou. Su Can's killing situation is set up in this canyon.
The sound of hooves was great. The Zhenjun took the lead in entering Hongshi Gorge. Then, the Guan-character flag also followed the Zhenjun and disappeared from the entrance of the gorge.
In Taizhou City, Feng Congyi, Congliang and other generals gathered in Taizhou Prefecture again. Although Guan Pengju had not arrived yet, the imperial envoy who came to announce the imperial edict had already arrived in advance.
"Have Su Can returned to the army to perform his duties?" Congliang saw Feng Congyi who was rushing toward him, walked forward and asked with concern.
Feng Congyi shook his head with some annoyance, "As the right commander of the Wuwei Guard, he has not been in the army for a long time. If it weren't for the reason, I would have sent someone to arrest him and tied him to the military camp to show his public."
Congliang laughed, "It's understandable, but General Feng, General Su, is afraid he can't lead troops in the army again?"
Feng Congyi stopped and was stunned, "If he could abandon these personal grudges, I would be willing to guarantee him. Su Can is a rare general. It would be a pity to be idle like this!"
Congliang looked at Feng Congyi unexpectedly, suddenly smiled bitterly, and slowly shook his head. Feng Congyi was really too naive.
The prefecture was in a strict guard, with one post every three steps and one whistle every five steps. "Is the magistrate so big? It seems that he attaches great importance to the imperial envoy sent by the emperor!" Feng Congyi said.
Congliang smiled and said, "Yes, yes, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the future of us is uncertain. The magistrate of the magistrate naturally needs to be careful. No matter how cautious it is, it is not an exaggeration. These imperial envoys have failed to succeed and have more than failure. Of course, they have to flatter Hao Luo!"
Feng Congyi curled his lips, disagreed.
Congliang turned his head and looked at Guan Zhenyun behind Feng Congyi, "Brother Guan, I heard that your father is going to visit the front line this time. You have to take care of me in the future!"
Guan Zhenyun smiled and owed her body, "The general was joking."
"It's not joking, it's not joking!" Congliang said seriously.
"Why haven't Zhang Yuting and Sun Chuanliang come here yet?" Feng Congyi looked at Congliang. He actually came here alone.
"They two have something else to do, so they won't come. It's just the same thing anyway!" Congliang waved his hand.
Feng Congyi was stunned. Before he could find out what was going on, Quan Changbin had already appeared in front of them. "Two, the imperial envoy is already waiting a little anxiously, hurry up."
Feng Congyi swallowed the words on his throat and walked into the lobby quickly with Quan Changbin. The incense table in the lobby had been set up. A sixth-rank official stood upright in his hand holding a yellow box containing the imperial edict. Behind him, four large inner guards stood solemnly.
"The emperor ordered the emperor to follow the will of heaven!"
Quan Changbin, Feng Congyi, Congliang and other civil and military officials knelt on the ground, touched the ground with their heads, and quietly listened to the imperial envoy reading the imperial edict.
This is an imperial edict to be promoted to the second-rank General Yunhui, and Feng Congyi was promoted from the third-rank General Yunhui to the second-rank General of the State, and from Liang to the third-rank General Yunhui. Other commanders such as Guan Zhenyun were promoted to the fourth-rank General Xuanwei, and even Su Can was not pulled down. Quan Changbin was summoned to the capital and entered the cabinet.
There was nothing unexpected for everyone to enjoy such an imperial edict. To calm people's hearts and stabilize the army, no matter which emperor would do this, the imperial edict was read out, it should be a long time for the mountain to shout and thank the Lord Long for his kindness. However, except for Feng Congyi and Guan Zhenyun, the rest of the people were still kneeling on the ground, but they all stood up straight. In their eyes, there was no slight excitement or gratitude.
The imperial envoy Hou Xu looked at the strange scene, and a citizen couldn't help but sink down. Looking at Quan Changbin at the forefront, he pretended to be calm and calm: "Master Quan, congratulations, you will be a cabinet minister from now on. This is the first time in decades that he has selected the Northern states!"
Quan Changbin stood up with a smile, "So, I really feel proud of the eldest prince's grace. Thank you?"
Hou Jian shook his hand, "Quan Quan, you have lost your words, that is the current emperor."
Chengliang jumped up, "Dare you ask the imperial envoy, where is our fourth general? Was he killed by the old man or locked up?"
"Bold!" Hou Jian already knew that it was not good, so he looked at Feng Congyi and Guan Zhenyun. "The Fourth Master and the current emperor are fellow flesh and blood compatriots. Now they are guarding the spirits for the advanced emperor in the palace. How dare you slander the Fourth Master and His Majesty's affection? Congliang, do you want to rebel?"
Cong Liang laughed strangely, "It's just that I want to rebel. I'm going to spoil you grandma. Who doesn't know that the First Emperor is going to pass the throne to our fourth master. The old man killed his father and forced his brother. The human and gods were angry, and they wanted us to bend our knees at him!" With a whirlpool, he pulled out his knife and put it on Hou Jian's neck.
The four great guards behind Hou Jian were shocked. They just put their hands on the knife handle at their waists. The sound of crossbow arrows sounded. The four guards didn't snorted, and they were on the ground. After a few strokes, they had already returned to their lives.
"Congliang, what are you going to do?" Feng Congyi was stunned by this scene that suddenly appeared in the hall, and he did not react until then.
Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of rapid footsteps outside the lobby. The soldiers from the brigade had already rushed in. The Qingyi River was all Taizhou Town Army. Quan Changbin looked at Feng Congyi with a smile, "General Feng, Li Jian killed his father and forced his brother to attack and usurp the throne. People and God are angry. General Congliang and I have decided to raise an army to kill and annihilate. Are you willing to participate?"
Feng Congyi's hands were trembling, "Congliang, Quan Changbin, do you know what you are doing? Are you going to do something against the enemy in front of you? Don't you know that Meng Yuan is eyeing you? Wherever Dayue can be confused, but we are in chaos?"
Quan Changbin smiled coldly, "The way is lost, so why are you talking about resisting aggression? If someone like Li Jian is in charge of the Great Yue, it will be really a reversal of the world and black and white. General Feng, at this time, you only need to answer me, would you like to raise the flag of righteousness with us to welcome the Fourth Master?"
Feng Cong laughed with great loyalty, turned around and left, "The Taizhou Guards will never be what you wish."
With a choking sound, two horizontal knives blocked Feng Congyi.
"Get out!" Feng Congyi's hair was standing upside down. Several town soldiers turned their eyes to Quan Changbin.
"General Feng, since you are stubborn, you are wronged! Take it down!" Hearing Quan Changbin's order, four or five town soldiers rushed up, surrounded Feng Congyi's group, unloaded Feng Congyi's weapons, and tied up his arms with one cut. Guan Zhenyun immediately followed his footsteps and was tied up tightly. The guards brought by the two had long been disarmed outside the mansion.
Feng Congyi, who was pressed tightly on his head, tried hard to raise his head, "Congliang, don't be impulsive, General Guan is coming. He has arrived in Gongzhou. When he appeared before the Guards, can you still take away a soldier? It's too late to stop the horse! Don't mislead yourself, others, the country, and the people!"
A smile appeared on Liang's face, and the sword in his hand strangled hard, blood splattered. Hou Jian covered his throat tightly with both hands, shook it a few times, stared at his eyes that were disbelief of everything before him, and fell to the ground with a bang.
Feng Congyi shut up and even killed the imperial envoy. Congliang and Quan Changbin were determined to do so, and no matter what they said, it would be of no use. He lowered his head and sighed a long sigh.
"General Guan, do you think he can still come to Taizhou?" Congliang looked at Feng Congyi and Guan Zhenyun with a smile, "Su Can has set out to greet him long ago."
Feng Congyi and Guan Zhenyun suddenly raised their heads and looked at Congliang's eyes full of surprise, "Congliang, what do Su Can want to do?"
Congliang smiled and said, "Since you two have guessed it, why bother to ask me to say more?"
"Bastard!" Guan Zhenyun struggled violently.
"Come on, please go down and have a good rest!" Quan Changbin waved his hand, and the guards besieged the two of them like wolves and tigers.
