Chapter 682 Who is the traitor?Who is the inverse? (Add more, ask for votes)

Jing Zhaoyin and Li Kui looked at the two people in front of him with a teacup. Outside the door was a county soldier from Wang Chengwei's Wannian County.

The military forces under Jingzhao Yin, in addition to the soldiers who directly belong to Jingzhao Mansion, the other is the unscrupulous people who patrol the streets.

The former has a small number of people, and is mainly responsible for ensuring the safety of Jing Zhaoyin. It is equivalent to Jing Zhaoyin's guard team, with only about a hundred people.

The latter is the main military force of the Jingzhao Mansion. These unscrupulous people also have to undergo the Second Spring and Autumn Training, and many of them have also retired from the battlefield. There are nearly 500 people in Chang'an.

But at this time, the bad people in Jingzhao Mansion basically sided with Shan Tao, the former street patrol envoy.

When Shan Tao was still serving as a street patrol envoy in Jingzhao Mansion, he had already established relationships with the bad guys in various street patrol shops. Before the chaos in Chang'an, Shan Tao, who had already worked in Dali Temple, immediately contacted these bad guys to make them They restrained their men to concentrate.

These unscrupulous people have a bad reputation in Chang'an. During the previous turmoil in Chang'an, they were the targets of attack by the people.

Shan Tao asked them to gather in advance, which actually saved many lives.

The soldiers of the Jingzhao Mansion had no combat effectiveness, and Wang Chengwei took the souvenir of the former Jingzhao Yin Cui Guangyuan, and easily brought this army under control.

So when Li Kui came out to meet the guests, the entire Jingzhao Mansion was under Wang Chengwei's control.

Li Kui put down his tea and said:
"My Li family has been favored by the emperor for generations, and will never betray Tang."

Wang Chengwei put down the tea bowl and said:
"I'm not rebelling against the Tang Dynasty, but following the King of Yue to seek rebellion and suppress rebellion."

"Suppose rebellion? Who is rebellion? Who is rebellion?"

Wang Chengwei said seriously:
"Shi Siming is rebellious."

Li Kui asked again:
"Since Shi Siming is a rebel, why didn't magistrate Wang go to the front to kill the rebels? Instead, he surrounded my Jingzhao Mansion?"

Wang Chengwei continued:
"Da Yin, listen to me. Shi Siming is rebellious. This is recognized by the whole Tang Dynasty. The King of Yue raised his troops to quell the chaos in Hedong."

Li Kui nodded.

Wang Chengwei continued:
"Since the traitor has been determined, whoever does not support the king of Yue in suppressing the rebellion is a traitor!"

Li Kui was stunned for a moment, then blurted out and asked:

"What about Your Majesty?"

Wang Chengwei said:
"How could Your Majesty be a traitor! Your Majesty swore to be a master when Lingwu ascended the throne, and he would definitely put down the chaos in the River East! There must be a traitor who deceived His Majesty!"

Li Kui refrained from rolling his eyes, but this can be regarded as the traditional performing arts of the Tang Dynasty. Li Kui is from a noble family in Longxi, and his family has no shortage of officials.

He is not so firm in his position. Chang'an was in such a mess before, and Li Kui has been dissatisfied with the court for a long time.

But this is not the time to stand in line, Li Kui said:

"My Jingzhao Mansion is only loyal to the imperial court. Without the will of the Zhengshitang, I will not do anything."

Wang Chengwei nodded and said:
"The humble job just hopes that Dayin will do nothing, and only need to protect himself in the mansion."

"But there is one more thing, I hope Dayin can help me."

Li Kui looked at Wang Chengwei, he didn't expect that the king of Yue could have such a layout, Wang Chengwei was the number one scholar in the first subject after the emperor ascended the throne and opened a subject!
Wang Chengwei's promotion speed has also surpassed that of the champions of all dynasties, and he is the leader among young officials.

Such a person has turned to the King of Yue so completely. How attractive is the King of Yue?
"What's the matter?"

Wang Chengwei said: "My subordinates reported Chang'an Order Cui Wang, who exploited the people with money from the court. This is the testimony of more than [-] households in Chang'an County collected by my subordinates."

Wang Chengwei took out a white confession from his cuff, but Li Kui didn't take it.

Cui Wang's use of the new money law to exploit the people is almost known in Chang'an, and there is no need for Wang Chengwei's impeachment.

However, although Chang'an Ling is a subordinate of Jing Zhaoyin, he is also an official in Beijing and belongs to the management of the Ministry of Officials.

Moreover, Cui Wang was "meritorious" in promoting the money law, and the emperor once rewarded him, so Li Kui only called him to Jingzhao Mansion and reprimanded him a few times, but he had nothing to do with Cui Wang.

However, Li Kui is a clean and honest official, and he can't see Cui Wang's subordinates who harm the people like this. He nodded and said:

"Ben Yin also knows about Cui Wang's affairs, but it's not Jingzhao's prerogative to dismiss Chang'an Ling."

Wang Chengwei said with a smile:

"It is not Jing Zhaoyin's authority to recall Chang'an Ling, but it is Da Yin's authority to summon Cui Wang to Jingzhao Mansion for questioning?"

Cui Wang looked at Wang Chengwei, then at Shang Bo, who had been drinking tea, and said:

"Then I will write a warrant to summon Cui Wang to Jingzhao Mansion, and I don't know the rest."

After saying this, Li Kui stood up, wrote the warrant and returned to the back house of Jingzhao Mansion.

Cui Wang, the magistrate of Chang'an County, received a warrant from Jingzhao Mansion, summoning him to go to Jingzhao Mansion to discuss matters.

If someone else gave the order, Cui Wang might have hesitated a bit, but Li Kui of the Jingzhao Mansion has never participated in the imperial court's party struggles and the fight for succession.

Moreover, Jingzhao Mansion is in the west of Chang'an City and within the scope of Chang'an County, so Cui Wang didn't suspect anything else. He just thought that Li Kui wanted to stabilize the situation in Jingzhao, so he immediately rode to Jingzhao Mansion.

But before leaving the county office, Cui Wang called his cronies and said:
"After I go to the government office, you have to guard the county office, especially the side of the Suzaku wall."

The people of Chang'an call the wall built by Cui Wang on Zhuque Street the Zhuque Wall.

The confidant said suspiciously:
"County magistrate, why are you guarding the Suzaku wall?"

Cui Wang looked at himself as a confidant and secretly scolded this idiot, but he didn't have anyone who could use him, only his loyalty could be used.

Cui Wang said:

"At that time, we were guarding against Wannian County! You have to do it quickly, and have you been told to notify the prince's envoy to leave?"

The confidant quickly said: "It's already out of Chang'an!"

Cui Wang nodded and said, "Hurry up and get things done! This time, if the job is done, you will have your glory and wealth!"

Cui Wang rode his horse to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, but he didn't see the shrewd gaze of his confidant under the simple and straightforward disguise.

The confidant walked to the county soldier's camp and immediately said to the Chang'an county government soldiers:

"The magistrate Cui asked you to tear down the Suzaku wall, do you understand?"

One of the military leaders asked suspiciously:

"Now Chang'an is in turmoil, why do you want to tear down the Suzaku Wall?"

The confidant raised his whip and said:

"Cui county magistrate tells you to demolish it! The county magistrate said that whoever demolishes it well will have prosperity and wealth in this life!"

The yamen soldiers were overjoyed, and immediately rode out from the camp to the Zhuque Wall beside Zhuque Street.

When Cui Wang entered Jingzhao Mansion, more than a dozen knife and axemen came out from the side and grabbed Cui Wang like a chicken.

Wang Chengwei took the seal of Jing Zhaoyi and Li Kui, surrounded by a group of generals, and directly took over the Chang'an county government.

In this way, the two counties of Chang'an Wannian all fell into the hands of the player, and Shangbo ordered the generals in Chang'an City to take over the gate of the city, and then guarded the gate of Nanya.

Nanya is a row of palaces to the south of Taiji Palace. This is where the Political Affairs Hall and the Six Ministries are located. All the important institutions of the Outer Dynasty are here.

Nanya is at the end of Zhuque Street, protected by a city wall, and there are three gates to enter and exit, namely Zhuque Gate, Hanguang Gate and Anshang Gate.

On weekdays, the city gates in front of Nanya are all open, and the prime minister and courtiers enter Nanya from here to work.

But after the turmoil in Chang'an, Prime Minister Pei Mian ordered the closure of the three city gates, and mobilized the imperial army directly under Nanya to guard the gates and treasuries. Many soldiers guarded.

The six prime ministers who stayed in Chang'an also stayed in the political affairs hall.

You can directly enter the Taiji Palace from Nanya, and the Taiji Palace is also connected to the Daming Palace where the emperor lived.

An eunuch next to the emperor read out the imperial decree, saying that the emperor was safe and asked the prime ministers to return to the political hall.

The hot-tempered prime minister Zhang Hao was about to break into the palace, and finally the Shence Army pulled out their weapons, and Zhang Hao was persuaded by other prime ministers to come back.

The emperor refused to see the prime minister because he did not trust the prime minister.

This also made the prime ministers a little disappointed. The atmosphere in the political affairs hall is very dull now. Pei Mian first said:

"Now that the situation in the palace is unclear, and the city of Chang'an is in chaos again, we should close the southern office to defend ourselves."

Li Lin and Li Xian immediately expressed their support, and all the prime ministers understood the current situation from the moment when King Yue and Jiedu envoys from all over the country flooded the Zhengshitang with snowflake memorials.

It is also a tradition of the Tang Dynasty that the prince "enter the capital and serve as king".

The emperor has done this matter, and strictly speaking, the emperor himself has done it, and now it is the turn of the king of Yue.

There is nothing wrong with the tradition of the old Li family.

Moreover, according to the "tradition" of the old Li family, at this time, the Zhengshitang only needs to keep its own place. When the battle for the throne comes to an end, the new emperor will not criticize the prime minister after he ascends the throne, and there is a high probability that he will continue to use the prime minister's team for a period of time.

For the prime ministers, staying in Nanya is the safest choice.

But for Prime Minister Cui Huan, this is not the case. It was the King of Yue who rebelled, and it is well known that Cui Huan leaned towards the prince in the court. Didn't the King of Yue want to liquidate himself after he came to power?
Absolutely can't sit still!

Cui Huan immediately stood up and retorted:

"When I bear the grace of the emperor, do I have to sit and wait for the king of Yue, a thief, to disrupt the world?"

Pei Mian looked up at Cui Huan and asked:

"Then what does Xiang Cui think should be?"

"The Zhengshitang immediately issued an order in the name of the emperor to order the Guanzhong states to block the King of Yue! Please return the prince to Chang'an to supervise the country!"
