Chapter 873 Exception
"Speak with a knife?"

Zhao Song forgot to drink, "That's the Zhou family, a powerful family!"

The history of the five surnames in a family is different, the shortest is the Zhao family, and the longest is the Yingchuan Yang family.

Over the years, although there have been conflicts and even conflicts between each other from time to time, a situation of fighting without breaking has always been maintained.

For example, the Wang family, in the early years, gradually broke away from the group of five surnames and formed a family of its own.

Even so, Yang Songcheng and others never thought about physically eliminating the traitor.

But in the face of Zhou's, he actually launched a murderous plan.

No, there is the emperor!

As for the Chunyu family, they were ignored by Zhao Song.

It is almost an unspoken rule not to use force against aristocratic families, that is, not to use large troops to kill them.

It can suppress and weaken the opponent gradually until it disappears in the long river of history.

Yang Songcheng said indifferently: "Why can a powerful family have been established for many years?

Just say the old man, as the head of the state, the old man gathered a group of powerful families behind him, but why didn't the emperor use his army to destroy the Yang family?

First, he was afraid of the old man's counterattack after he made a move;
Second, it's just because the old man is not in charge of the army. "

"Where's Zhang Chumao?" Zhao Song said bluntly.

Yang Songcheng's eyes flashed coldly.

"My son, you are stupid!"

"It just doesn't work, hahahaha!" Zhao Song laughed loudly.

It's rare that this person is still alive... Chunyu Shan looked at him coldly, and suddenly thought of something, with Zhao Song's arrogance, if the Emperor Wu hadn't driven him to the western border, he would have offended the emperor already.

Yang Songcheng didn't get angry, "Therefore, although there is an undercurrent between the emperor and the old man, it will not be torn apart.

The Zhou family is different, Yang Xuan is Zhou's son-in-law, and he is in charge of the most powerful army in the world, the Northern Frontier Army.

Zhou, a behemoth!

Last time the emperor and the old man wanted to scheme against the Zhou family, but Zhou Qin, who had been dormant for many years, suddenly made a move and reversed the situation.

It turned out that over the years, Zhou Qin had been silently preparing some means.

Such a Zhou family, supplemented by the northern border army, and the son-in-law of the so-called Great Tang general, the emperor, can't bear it anymore! "

"What about you?" Zhao Song took a big sip of his drink.

Yang Songcheng said: "The old man's wish is to let the King of Yue enter the East Palace, which is good for me and other aristocratic families.

The Zhou family and Yang Xuan supported King Wei, especially Yang Xuan, who were almost like brothers with King Wei in the northern border.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the drought, destroy the Zhou family first, and then Yang Xuan.

The emperor is in charge of the northern border, you are in charge of the western border, and the king of Yue is in charge of the east palace. In this way, everyone is happy!
The wealth I waited for can only last forever! "

Zhao Song filled himself with wine and said with a smile: "The old man said that there is nothing wrong with calling the old man back. It turns out that you need a general to direct this matter."

"The stakes of the mirror stage are desperately trying to deliver the news. The news two days ago said that in northern Xinjiang, the tyrants are united and no longer sell food. The Zhao family in Lu County is also ready to move...

Throughout northern Xinjiang, the storm is about to come.And Chang'an, act upon hearing the news! "

Yang Songcheng clapped his hands, and a servant came in, "Ah Lang."

"Bring a glass."

Two glasses of wine, one bowl of wine.

Yang Songcheng raised his glass, "If this matter is completed, the overall situation is settled!"

Zhao Song suddenly narrowed his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a knife's edge, which made people feel chills down the spine, "The Zhou family is also a huge monster. When such a huge monster falls down, it can feed many families."

Yang Songcheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Zhou family has fallen, and we will share it equally."

"Can the emperor just watch?" Zhao Song sneered, "That's a glutton, how could he just sit and watch?"

"Beijiang!" Yang Songcheng said indifferently: "He can control Beijiang, which is more important than money, farms and houses."

"Yes."

Zhao Song raised his glass, "When will this matter start?"

Yang Songcheng said: "You just came back, take a rest for a day, here will send all kinds of news about Zhou Shi, you think about it carefully, once you do it, it will be like a thunderbolt, don't give Zhou Shi a chance to breathe."

"So, raise your glass and drink!"

All three faces were smiling.

Prosperity and wealth, who thinks too much?
Children and grandchildren are endless, who thinks it is too long?
……

Zhou Zun looked at the documents in the duty room.

Chang Mu came in, "Lang Jun."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Zun raised his head.

Chang Mu bowed slightly, "The news from northern Xinjiang shows that the drought is still there."

"Where are the refugees?" Zhou Zun rubbed his eyebrows.

"More and more."

Zhou Zun clicked his tongue, "Zitai's move can certainly support people, but Beijiang can't afford so many refugees. Once there is a shortage of food, there will be chaos in an instant."

"Yeah!" Chang Mu's brows showed worry, "Also, Duke Xing Zhao Song is back."

"He shouldn't be back at this time of year!"

These generals guarding one side will not return in summer unless there is an urgent matter, or transfer, or a court meeting.

"He went to Yang's house, and Chunyu Shan also went."

"Where's Yang Songcheng?"

"Today is a day off."

Zhou Zun narrowed his eyes, "I'm plotting something."

Chang Mu said: "Zhao Song brought five hundred riders, all of whom are elites from Western Xinjiang."

This is normal, Zhou Zun frowned, "There is no major event in the court recently, and it is impossible for the emperor to get Zhao Song back, so why is he coming back?"

Chang Mu heard footsteps, turned around and saw that it was Zhou Qin's servant.

"But what's the matter with Aye?" Zhou Zun got up and asked.

The servant came in and lowered his voice, "Zhou's various farms have reported that there have been many peeps nearby recently... A Lang said, let Mr. Lang not show any strange looks, and don't ask for leave."

Zhou Zun nodded, "Got it."

As soon as the servant left, Chang Mu sat down on his knees, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Lang, this is a sign of action!"

"The old man knows." Zhou Zun picked up the brush, "The last time Yang Songcheng and others started to attack Zhou's business, they were slapped back by Aye, and then they died down.

It seems that the flags and drums are quiet, but in reality, Zitai is holding the northern army in his hands. If they really want to turn their faces, they are not sure.

Now that the drought in northern Xinjiang is severe, Zitai... that's all. "

Zhou Zun put down his brush, "Isn't it time for Zitai to write?"

"It should be in these few days." Chang Mu frowned, "Mr. Lang, it's fine if it targets the Zhou family's fields, but Zhao Song..."

"Zhao Song, Yang Songcheng and others are in the same group. He can come back, which means something."

Zhou Zun sneered, "The emperor is right behind you!"

Zhou Zun remained the same afterwards, taking his time.

After leaving the Yamen, he even joked a few words about his grandson with his colleagues.

"It is said that he is inseparable from his puppy all day long, hey! The old man is heartbroken, wishing he could go to Beijiang to hug that child."

After leaving the imperial city, a servant was waiting.

"Grandpa has a letter."

"How to say?"

"Uncle said, everything is the same."

Is Zitai still so confident?

Zhou Zun didn't know whether his son-in-law was trying to support him or what.

Back home, Zhou Qin was waiting for him, pacing slowly with the birdcage in his hand.

"Zhao Song's return is a deterrent." Zhou Qin said: "Besides, Zhao Song came back in a flash. It seems that the emperor and Yang Songcheng want to treat Zhou as a chicken and want to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."

"They are not afraid of losing their teeth!" Zhou Zun said: "The land is the foundation of the Zhou family. Once it is taken away, the money and food will not be mentioned. Without those people, the Zhou family will become a second-rate family."

The foundation of aristocratic families is not money, but population and political influence.

With the population in hand, a large army can be raised if necessary.

The emperor has to weigh one or two if he wants to do it.

Zhou Qin nodded.

Later, the father and son drank together.

"Zi Tai sent a letter, saying that although the drought is serious this time, he has already prepared for it, so we don't need to worry." Zhou Qin obviously couldn't figure out the truth of his grandson-in-law's words.

"He is now the master of the northern border, and Weifu uses it for himself. These may not be the truth."

This son-in-law is no longer the boy who was rejected outside the gate of the Zhou family.

"Don't tell him about this for the time being." Zhou Qin took a sip of wine, "so as not to disturb his mind. He is stable there. Zhou's lost some fields, and sooner or later he can find a way to get it back."

After the two had finished drinking, Zhou Zun was a little tired and left.

Zhou Qin came out with him, took down the birdcage from a nearby branch, and whistled.

The bird named 'Old Dog' chirped obsequiously.

Chang Mu is here.

His face was solemn.

"Zhao Song's five hundred riders have entered the city!"

Zhou Qin grinned grimly and said, "This old dog, Li Mi, dares to attack the Zhou family?"

He tightened his hand, and with a snap, the hook of the birdcage broke and fell to the ground.

The 'old dog' inside is silent like a cicada!

……

in the palace.

Just after dinner, the emperor and the imperial concubine were lazily pacing to digest food.

People spend too much time eating, drinking, and sleeping in their lives. Ordinary people think that this is what the human body must do, and they do it unconsciously.But the nobles are different, spending money and employing people to create a luxurious or so-called elegant atmosphere for these necessary things for the human body.

"I'm going to change clothes."

The emperor slowly entered the side hall.

Two maids of honor are waiting.

One of them was holding an exquisite small toilet, kneeling and slightly raising it.A person beside him helped the emperor lift up the hem of his robe, untied the belt, and pulled down his trousers.

After a moment of silence, a thin line of water hangs down feebly.The court lady has rich experience, and she sent the toilet to the emperor's body early, and accurately caught the water line.

Not a drop.

Then the maid slowly stepped back on her knees to ensure that the water line fell into the toilet accurately.

This movement is smooth and elegant.

Supreme's body shook a few times, and the maid moved forward again.

After a while, a small water line fell again.

Slowing down again, the emperor sighed and pulled up his trousers. The maids around him tied up the belts and tidied up the robes.

The third court lady came with a copper basin.

The emperor washed his hands casually, and the fourth court lady brought a cloth towel.

After wiping his hands, the emperor handed the cloth towel to the court lady and turned to go out.

The female officer standing in the corner waved her hands, some burned incense, and some mopped the floor where the emperor had just stood.

In an instant, nothing seemed to have happened in the hall.

Hearing that the emperor had gone away, the court ladies relaxed.

"So tired!"

"not bad!"

"Actually, this job is not tiring."

"It used to be several times a day, which was very easy, but now it is more than ten times a day, and there are several times at night. No one wants to come to us anymore."

Several maids smiled.

The court lady mopping the floor straightened up, "I'm the most tired!"

"Just procrastinate for a while, why are you tired?"

"I am the most tired." The maid who kneeled and offered the toilet returned, "Not only did I pick it up, but I also had to empty it."

"But it was you that His Majesty saw! No way, one day he took a fancy to you, and then you will fly to the clouds and become a nobleman."

Ha ha!

The maid smiled and went to the back with the toilet.

She put the toilet in the corner.

Squat down quietly.

Then bow your head.

retching.

"It stinks!"

The emperor came out of the side hall, and Han Shitou hurried over.

"His Majesty!"

The emperor glanced at him, "Yeah!"

Han Shitou approached and said in a low voice: "The head of the country has moved Xing Guogong."

There was a sneer on the emperor's eyebrows, "Zhao Song has been in Xijiang for many years, and he has long wanted to come back. He has been working all these years, but I don't want to see this person.

The head of the state followed the trend, so I became a bad person and he became a good person. "

Han Shitou said with a smile, "But Zhao Song is not an idiot, what the father-in-law did can't be hidden from him."

"Everyone gets what they need. If Zhao Song returns to Chang'an, what worries him the most is not me, but the head of the state."

"Yes. If such a domineering general returns, he will definitely challenge the majesty of the king."

"Did the Zhou family ever find out?" the emperor asked casually.

"It should have been discovered. In addition, the [-] cavalry brought by Duke Xing from Xijiang entered the city earlier, and this matter cannot be hidden from the Zhou family. The servant girl thought that the Zhou family should know by now."

Han Shitou smiled gently, as if the sky was falling and he couldn't stop his gentle smile, "The lights in the Zhou family's house have been reduced by [-]%, and the best hands in the family are probably gathered. In addition, I don't know how many people the Zhou family has in the city. "

"A lot."

The emperor saw the noble concubine waiting in front of him, and there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes, "The last time Zhou's business was suppressed, Zhou Qin's old dog jumped up and down. He thought he was proud, but he forgot one thing."

He turned around and looked at Han Shitou, "You can't do everything. You have to leave yourself behind.

I am like this, and so are the aristocratic families.

The last time Zhou Qin held back his impulse for many years, this time, I affirm that the last reliance in his hands will be exhausted.

I, wait for him! "

"His Majesty!"

In front, the imperial concubine smiled and waved.

The emperor walked over slowly, "Swan geese!"

The imperial concubine greeted her, and the emperor gently embraced her not-so-slender waist, and the two smiled at each other.

Under the lamplight, most of the black hair was entangled with the blue silk, and the wrinkles and the red face were tightly attached.

Han Shitou still smiled, "We ate too much."

I want to vomit!

A servant hurried over, "Young Supervisor Han, Jingtai is here to report, and Zhao Song has sent his men to Zhou's house."

"Is he impatient?"

Han Shitou nodded, and the servant left.

The naughty Sun Er Er is here.

"Old Han, this is about to attack the young master's Yue family."

"Hmm!" Han Shitou was still smiling.

"Drought in northern Xinjiang, the little master said that it is powerless, we are a little panicked!"

"What are you panicking?" Han Shitou glanced at him, but there was no one around, so he still lowered his voice, "Let me tell you something. When the young master sacrificed to the heroic soul at the Taoxian Martyr's Temple, the heaven and the earth responded. What is this? Destiny !"

He emphasized his tone and repeated with a firm gesture: "What is this? Destiny!"

Sun Lao Er patted his chest, "Yes! How noble the little master is, with the destiny in his body, he will naturally save the day."

Han Shitou looked at the emperor and concubine under the lights in front of him, his eyes gradually turned cold.

"must!"

At this moment, outside Zhou's house, there are many people.

Several people are discussing.

"What the duke means is to test it out tonight. If the Zhou family is weak, we will take it down tonight."

"So, do it?"

"Explore first!"

"Countless!"

Several dark shadows quietly approached the Zhou family's enclosure.

Diagonally opposite, several commanding men grinned grimly.

"Kill the powerful family! This is the beginning of the world, and today we will be recorded in the annals of history! We have a rich history, and we can boast to future generations!"

A black shadow suddenly flew up.

In the darkness, a sharp voice came.

The black shadow that had just reached the top of the wall flew back backwards, and hit the wall behind it heavily, its body was hanging on it, trembling slightly.

A huge crossbow spear was strung around his body, and it was deeply embedded in the wall.

……

Ask for a ticket!
