Shu Blossoms

Chapter 62 Follow-up
Chen Qiu Su meddled with his fingers, and the fireworks were sobbing.

Miyagi buried the loyal bones, and the imperial power was drunk with the original intention.

In the Xianyang Palace this morning, the anger around Emperor Zhou who had not slept all night could not be suppressed.

There were many people kneeling in the hall, except for the Grand Sima Xu Xuanzhi, the commander of the Imperial Guard Yue Qi, the deputy commander Liu Wei, the two princes of the Han family, Amu, the governor of Jingzhao, including the Zheng Heng brothers and sisters, all knelt down.

Last night, the Guards searched all night and couldn't even catch a small remnant of the Fu family, which made him shudder!

He received news as early as when Fu's remnants entered the capital. Everyone knew that it was impossible to succeed in assassination with only those few people, so he did not immediately order the arrest, but wanted to use them to catch bigger fish. .

Sure enough, Dalang Xie took the bait, which made Emperor Zhou very satisfied!
Emperor Zhou felt that although he was weak, he was not like the previous emperor in terms of Wenzhi and martial arts, but as an emperor, he was diligent in government affairs for the people and raised new policies, which was no worse than the previous emperor.

But these are not enough. He wants to take back his power and implement reforms to make Da Zhou stronger.

After preparing for the Northern Expedition for six years, he wants to recover the lost land, unify the Central Plains, and become an emperor through the ages.

He's been doing all these things, and he's achieved great results.

But there is a bigger worry in his heart, that is, never to hand over the emperor's life to the hands of powerful ministers again.

So he eradicated Fu Lei, cut Xu Xuanzhi's military power, and Xie's next.

But the Xie Clan of Chen County is a big family that has lasted for a hundred years, and its strength is not inferior to that of the Langya Wang Clan.

For a behemoth like this, he needs a one-shot opportunity.

I didn't expect this opportunity to come so soon.

This time, he intends to take back the military power in their hands even if he can't beat Xie to the ground.

What's more, Xie Sheng has recruited. He has indeed taken in the remnants of the Fu family. As long as the assassin is caught and the stolen goods are captured, Xie's family will not be able to escape this time.

But one night passed, and reality slapped him severely. If he couldn't catch the assassin, he couldn't confront Xie, and Xie Sheng would change his words at any time.

Sure enough, Xie Shengtian refused to admit it as soon as it dawned, and only said that he was a fellow countryman he knew when he was young. Because his family was poor and came to Kyoto to make a living, he had nowhere to stay for the time being, so he kindly took him in.

I don't know what kind of Fu family he is!
This made Zhou Di both angry, powerless, and deeply fearful!
Although they replaced the Xiahou clan with the Yue clan, it seemed that they were sitting on the land. The emperor's father almost wiped out the blood of the Xiahou clan back then, but now it seems that a small palace city is not completely in his hands.

Is it possible that if one day when he is asleep, he can be killed by someone unwittingly, just like the deposed emperor of the Xiahou family back then.

In fact, Emperor Zhou knew that last night was not only the remnants of Xiahou, but also the Xie family, there must be other nobles who secretly helped the remnants of the Fu family, otherwise the person would not disappear out of thin air after being seriously injured!
So he couldn't sleep, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to feel that someone was coming to take his life.

When no one could be found in the palace, Emperor Zhou recalled the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture to search the whole city. Grand Sima Xu Xuanzhi felt that going door-to-door would cause panic among the people of Kyoto.

Emperor Zhou heard that he also had such concerns, so he did not make a decision for a while.

But those rebellions did not give Zhou Emperor another chance to hesitate. He received the words that Han Shidi sent to the Guards, Tuobayu fled, Xishi and Nanshi were set on fire, he asked for support, and invited Jingzhao House Yin sent the yamen to put out the fire, and their brothers took dozens of private soldiers from the house to chase!
Soon after, the news that more than 20 guards of Dongyang Gate were slaughtered was received, and the old illness almost relapsed under the panic.

But at this time, Emperor Zhou quickly felt that this was a good excuse to search the whole city, so he sent the Guards to search Jiankang City on the pretext of searching for arsonists. Another team of yamen assisted the praetorian guards in the search in the name of fighting the fire.

The government office that rescued the Nanshi team was actually dispatched to search for them, but they didn't expect to meet Zheng Wei's unforgiving ancestors.

Emperor Zhou couldn't wait to order Xie's mansion to be sealed, and the mansions of the major families were also monitored, and there was no news until this morning.

It was not until Han Shidi came back to report that Tuoba Yu was taken by Xiahouqing and Helianbo to escape Jiankang, that Zhou Di stumbled and sat on the dragon chair as if he had just woken up from a dream.

He may have been really stunned, and he was holding on to a small assassin and let the real tiger return to the mountain!
At this time, he also realized that he had fallen into someone else's trick.

When he saw that his two children were all wounded and kneeling in front of him with dirty faces, Emperor Zhou knew that he had to regain his composure and stop acting recklessly.

On the night of mid-autumn, most of the outer city of Jiankang was burned down, killing and injuring thousands of people. It must be an explanation for the people.

The Zhou Emperor summoned the whole world that day, and the remnants of the previous dynasty colluded with the rebels of the Fu family to hold the third prince of the Wei Dynasty and fled to Jingkou, and ordered the prefect of Yangzhou and Jingkou County to arrest them.

The guards were not strong enough to protect the guards, and the commanders and deputy commanders were fined for one year, and all the remnants of the previous dynasty and the fine works of the Great Wei in the capital were cleared within three days.

The governor of Jingzhao was ineffective, and the disaster relief was not timely, so he was exiled to Panyu and became a small county magistrate.

The general of Dongfu City defended the city for dereliction of duty, was sacked from his official position, and was transferred from Jiankang.

Such a painless punishment obviously did not satisfy Emperor Zhou, but he knew that if he could not hit the enemy with a single blow, he would rather stand still.

In the end, Xie Sheng was put back into Xie's house, and the guards around Xie's family were also transferred back.

Such a painless punishment makes many people feel that something is not right, but it also makes many people relax their vigilance and feel complacent that they have escaped disaster.

After the punishment was appeasement, Emperor Zhou listened to the advice of Zheng Heng's brothers and sisters, and ordered Shang Shuling to transfer money from the treasury to help rebuild the two cities, build temporary shelters for the homeless to live in, distribute food, and exempt merchants in the two cities from tax for one year. .It is a solution to the burning problems of those ordinary small businessmen.

After arranging these, Emperor Zhou took his children back to the bedroom and summoned the imperial doctor to treat their injuries.

Looking at these two children, he felt distressed and proud.

He has been neglected and neglected since he was a child, and he is frail and sickly. He had a prince in his twenties and fifties, and he is only two years old now. The second prince was born last year, and he is less than one year old now.

He has been under the care of the eldest princess since he was a child, and he is close to the eldest princess, and it hurts to take these two nephews as his own children.

Emperor Zhou always wanted to lift them up, so when Zheng Heng was secretly accompanying the army, he supported him, and secretly told Han Daoyuan to watch over the child.

Zheng Wei wanted to enter the martial arts academy to learn martial arts, but he didn't stop him. He didn't really believe Zheng Wei's rhetoric that he wanted to defeat Tuobayu and whip him with a whip. He just thought that she would be more powerful and would be less bullied when she married her in-laws.

I really didn't expect that these two children really gave him a face today. Although Tuobayu was not captured, it was unrealistic, but it was a fact that he killed a lot of Xiahou's meticulous works.

Zhou Di planned to think about how to reward his own children after these things came to an end.

After Zheng Wei washed and dressed and bandaged the wound, he came to see Emperor Zhou again.

She reported back to Emperor Zhou of Liu Erlang and the others' performance last night, and also talked about the murder of Peng Huai.

Emperor Zhou heard that Liu Erlang was still kneeling in front of the gate of Peng's house at this time, but he praised it very rarely, "It's a child who values ​​friendship!"

Seeing that Zheng Wei was still on the verge of speaking, he couldn't help touching the little girl's soft hair, and asked with a smile, "But what else do you want to tell my uncle?"
