I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 557: No troops can be sent without the Tiger Talisman! I was deceived by the emperor again!

Bingxian and Zhang Yanshou and others beside him looked at each other meaningfully, and then looked at the person speaking in the audience.

This is a strange face, probably just an ordinary one.

"Hmph, you are a small and powerful person, what qualifications do you have to review the secret edict? When the superior officer issues an order, you just do it!" Zhang Yanshou reprimanded angrily.

"The Qing Dynasty is a major matter of the country. The top is about the country, the country, the country, the middle is about the Liu family's ancestral temple, and the bottom is about our wealth and lives..."

"Without your majesty's imperial edict stamped with jade seal, how can we act rashly based on your words?"

The words he spoke so righteously made Zhang Yanshou choke in his chest and turn pale.

How could he have imagined that such a small person could speak in such an organized manner.

Several people on the stage looked at each other again, with murderous intent in their hearts!

"The incident happened suddenly. What the county official handed down was an oral order, not an edict!" Bingxian said indifferently, his hands behind his back.

"If there is no edict, how can there be a tiger talisman?" The chief took a step forward and asked again.

"Of course there is a tiger talisman. Come here and we can let you check the tiger talisman!" Zhang Yanshou said coldly.

The commander was not timid at all. He walked out of the queue and came to the stage where troops were dispatched.

"Zhang Fujun, what's the tiger talisman..."

Before the long word "zai" came out of his mouth, Zhang Yanshou suddenly looked ferocious, raised the ring-shou knife that had not been sheathed, and struck it down hard.

After a scream, the long head was split in half, red and white things sprayed out, and then fell down.

Suddenly, exclamations of surprise rang out in the review ground, and the originally neat formation became chaotic.

"Hmph, this person is a remnant of the Huo Party! He wants to stop us from carrying out the task of clearing the emperor! He really deserves to die!" Zhang Pengzu roared with blood on his face.

"Zhang Fujun is right! Those who want to examine the Tiger Talisman now just want to delay time. They are all remnants of the Huo Party and should be punished according to law!" Bingxian shouted.

In the eyes of children from aristocratic families like Bingxian, people from humble families are nothing more than a mob. After killing one, no one will dare to jump around again.

But the next scene once again exceeded all of their expectations.

Thirty or forty people suddenly stood out from the somewhat messy queue of the patrolling pavilions.

Each of them glared angrily at the people on the stage, and the knuckles holding their weapons turned white due to excessive force.

"We are going to check the tiger talisman. Please match the talisman. If there is no talisman, send troops and conspire against each other. If everyone finds it, he will be killed!"

The second half of the sentence is an iron law in the army. Everyone from the general to the soldiers is familiar with it, so no one needs to take the lead, and everyone can say it in perfect order.

With these thirty or forty people gathered together, it was already very impressive. This questioning made Bingxian and others feel guilty.

"We are going to check the tiger talisman. Please match the talisman. If there is no talisman, send troops and conspire against each other. If everyone finds it, he will be killed!"

More than a hundred people in the formation shouted this sentence in unison, and the previous worries had already turned into anger.

"Be brave! I am Jing Zhaoyin! These two are Zuo Fengyi and You Fufeng! They are both two thousand stone court officials. Return to the team quickly, otherwise military law will be engaged!"

Bingxian was furious, waving the sword in his hand and roaring angrily.

But where would it be of any use? No one responded, and no one flinched.

At the moment, Bingxian, who was wielding a long sword on the general stage, looked more like the monkey from Mount Emei.

"We are going to check the tiger talisman. Please match the talisman. If there is no talisman, send troops and conspire against each other. If everyone finds it, he will be killed!"

Most of the soldiers patrolling the city roared out in unison and pushed back Bingxian's words, which further suppressed the few of their trusted followers who did not dare to stand up.

Bingxian and the others turned from angry to nervous. They had always regarded the city patrol soldiers in the audience as a mob, thinking that they would be driven away with a little encouragement.

How could they have imagined that these patrol guards would be so stubborn and insisted on seeing the tiger talisman.

Time keeps passing, and if these thousands of people cannot be mobilized, they will not be able to capture Chang'an City at all.

It won't be long before the slaves of the aristocratic families will gather in the Beique Square. Without the side response of Bingxian and others, it will be a dead end.

The three people got together, and after some discussion with livid faces, they all looked at Wei Xuancheng and Wei Xian who were standing behind.

So, they immediately walked over in a hurry.

"Wei Gong! Wei Fujun! The two of you should take action in this matter!"

"Yes, the Grand Master of the Cabinet and the Chief Sima of the Sima Mansion are more effective than me!"

"We can't delay it any longer. If it's too late, it will be bad!"

Several people took turns to persuade them, and Wei Xian also saw the situation clearly. He raised his hand and interrupted several people's words.

"Since we have sworn an oath, it is our duty to do so!"

"Wei Gong is righteous!"

"Let's go, young man, go and persuade these soldiers!" Wei Xian said calmly.

"No." Wei Xuancheng said lukewarmly.

Then, the Websters, father and son, Bingxian and others changed positions. The former came to the front of the stage, while the latter took a few steps back.

Wei Xian, the cabinet bachelor, has been a cabinet scholar for more than ten years and claims to be half of the emperor's teacher. Now his beard and hair are white and he has a bit of a fairy spirit.

He walked to the ordering platform and indeed made the patrol soldiers quiet down.

"This old man is Wei Xian, the cabinet scholar. He has indeed received a secret edict from the county magistrate, ordering you to obey Lord Bingfu and enter the palace with him to quell the rebellion!"

Wei Xian spoke slowly and wanted to say a few more encouraging words, but before he could speak, another discordant voice came from the audience.

"The Grand Master of the Cabinet has no right to give orders. If you have the Tiger Talisman, we will naturally obey your orders. Otherwise, you are also a traitor!" This contradictory voice came from somewhere.

"Yes! The cabinet ministers have no military power. This is a formal system. To mobilize troops without permission is tantamount to conspiracy!"

"Exactly, they are the same as those who are treasonous, and they are the traitors of rebellious ministers!"

The curses came one after another, completely disrespecting Wei Xian, and made him unable to say the next words at all. His face suddenly turned red, he was hesitating, and he almost fainted.

If Bingxian and others hadn't come to help him, he would have fallen down immediately.

"Mr. Wei Fu! Say something quickly, otherwise this place will collapse. How can we explain to the great families in the world!" Bingxian begged angrily.

"Yes, you are the only one who can maintain the situation!" Zhang Yanshou and Zhang Qianqiu also said, wiping the sweat from their foreheads.

Wei Xuancheng, who had been staying out of the situation, finally nodded and said indifferently: "Please help my father to rest under the stage. I am in charge here."

"Okay, okay!" After saying a few good words in a row, Bingxian and others hurriedly helped Wei Xian off the military platform.

Wei Xuancheng looked at the dozens of subordinate officials of the third auxiliary yamen on the military platform. Only 30% were descendants of aristocratic families, and the rest had angry faces, as if they were unhappy.

He turned around, took a few steps forward, and suddenly said, "Here comes someone! Close the camp door immediately!"

Whether it is the autumn examination, salary distribution, or official promotion, the final orders are issued by the Grand Sima Mansion. Therefore, Wei Xuancheng's name always appeared in the eyes and ears of the Han army soldiers.

In this way, prestige accumulated over time.

The patrol guards in Chang'an City had many opportunities to see Wei Xuancheng, so they respected him more than others.

Wei Xuancheng suddenly issued an order, and many of the soldiers in the city patrol booths had no time to react before they moved first and closed the gate of the parade ground firmly.

"I have an edict from the emperor to announce!" Wei Xuancheng said, and took out a copy of the edict from the emperor.

The red dragon pattern on the black background looks very realistic.

The patrolling pavilions, which were still a little messy, all became quiet and looked at Wei Xuancheng on the stage.

Bingxian and others who helped Wei Xian off the stage also stopped and looked at Wei Xuancheng on the stage inexplicably, wondering what his clever plan was.

"Bingxian, Zhang Yanshou, Zhang Qianqiu and others mobilized troops without authorization in an attempt to force the palace. Their crimes are unpardonable..."

"I hereby issue an edict to order the Grand Sima Wei Xuancheng to lead the three auxiliaries to patrol the city, capture the rebels, and execute justice on the spot!"

Wei Xuancheng's voice was loud and clear, allowing everyone present to hear clearly.

The gazes of the patrolling pavilions immediately turned to Bingxian and others who were dumbfounded in the audience.

"You, you... you rebellious son!" Wei Xian, who was the first to react, turned red with anger and pointed at Wei Xuancheng, unable to speak.

"Wei Xian! The county magistrate has something for you, so that you can find your way back and capture him without hesitation. Don't lose the face of the world's Confucian scholars!" Wei Xuancheng called him by his name.

"Okay, okay! The Webster School was ruined in the hands of a fool like you!" Wei Xianqiang finished speaking, tilted his head and fell down, not knowing whether to live or die.

The brothers Bingxian and Zhang were also familiar with it. They didn't know why Wei Xuancheng wanted to "rebellion", but they also knew that they had fallen into a trap.

In the flash of lightning, the three of them drew out the swords from their waists and screamed in panic at the angry-looking patrol pavilions.

"This man is a remnant of the Huo Party! Now if he plots evil, whoever kills him will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!"

As soon as Bingxian finished speaking, their cronies on the military command platform drew their swords and prepared to take action.

But he was immediately stopped by other officials who became suspicious.

"Here is the tiger talisman issued by the county magistrate himself. Who dares to make a mistake!?" Wei Xian roared and put the two tiger talismans he took out from his arms together.

This black gold-embedded tiger talisman is not too big and can just be held in your hand. If you stand farther away, it will actually become invisible.

According to the normal usage method, after Wei Xuancheng's talisman is completed, it should be handed over to the military envoy for inspection. After confirming that the edict and tiger talisman are correct, troops can be mobilized.

There were not many soldiers patrolling the city, so there was no separate post of military envoy. All inspections were carried out by Zuoer officials of the government office.

The few assistant officials from the Third Auxiliary Yamen were on the stage, but they were accomplices of Bingxian and others. They were almost ready to kill Wei Xuancheng just now.

Of course they can't be allowed to check the tiger talisman.

The soldiers patrolling the city looked at each other, and they found that no one could verify the authenticity of the tiger talisman.

But Wei Xuancheng had already discussed this matter with the emperor. He held the tiger talisman high and shouted again: "Is there an embroidered messenger in the army? Come and inspect the talisman!"

The Embroidered Clothes Envoys are the emperor's confidants and are always led by the emperor himself. There is no possibility of betrayal.

Let them check the tiger talisman, which is the most convincing.

Moreover, there are messengers of embroidered clothes all over the army and government offices, so there must be messengers of embroidered clothes hidden in the review field.

Sure enough, as soon as Wei Xuancheng finished speaking, more than a dozen people stood up on and off the stage. They took turns loudly announcing their names and official positions in the Xiuyi Guard.

Then he walked to Wei Xuancheng's side and carefully inspected the tiger talisman.

After just a moment, the dozen embroidered messengers who revealed their true bodies gave their results one after another.

"Ding Bujing, the embroidered guard, checked that the tiger talisman is correct!"

"The embroidered clothes guard congratulated the silk and verified that the tiger talisman is correct!"

"Zhang Duan, the embroidered guard, checked that the tiger talisman is correct!"

……

It didn't take long for these dozen people to give the same answer, proving that the tiger talisman and the edict in Wei Xuancheng's hands were correct.

Without a tiger talisman, launching troops without authorization is tantamount to treason; having a tiger talisman and not obeying orders is also tantamount to treason.

"The tiger talisman is correct, the edict is correct, can you all obey the orders!?" Wei Xuancheng finally pulled out the sword from his waist.

"But it depends on the command of the Grand Sima!" the three thousand soldiers patrolling the city replied with a military salute.

Bingxian and his followers, who had been showing off their power just now, and their cronies had long since lost their spirit. They were all trembling with swords, not knowing where to retreat.

Wei Xuancheng first turned around and looked at the cronies on the stage, and said loudly: "Put down your weapons, I can report to the county magistrate to let you survive!"

There were only a dozen of his henchmen on the stage who were fighting for their lives. No matter what, they couldn't fight against the thousands of people in the audience. After hesitating for a moment, they were captured without hesitation.

Wei Xuancheng turned to the soldiers patrolling the city in the audience and said loudly: "Those who just waved flags and shouted for the rebels just now, put down their weapons, and I can save your lives!"

After a period of silence, the exposed cronies of the aristocratic families also handed over their weapons and were tied up on the spot.

As for those who have not been exposed, they can only survive for a few more days. In the future, no one can escape the law according to the picture.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, most of the rebels and accomplices in the review field had surrendered, and in the end only Bingxian and the "leaders" were left.

The servants of Wei who came to the parade ground with Wei Xian and Wei Xuancheng were loyal. They closely protected Wei Xian and others in the middle, holding up their swords and preparing to resist.

"Wei Zhuang, Wei You, just surrender and don't go too far down the wrong path!" Wei Xuancheng scolded.

"Hmph, you are actually a grandfather. You are worse than a pig or a dog. We will never give in!" Wei Zhuang, who was in his early twenties, angrily scolded, and Wei Youyi followed suit.

"Mr. Bing, do you three want to surrender?" Wei Xuancheng turned to the other three and asked.

"Shi can be killed but not humiliated. Since the matter has been exposed, we are willing to die!" Bingxian and others said firmly.

Wei Xuancheng wanted to persuade him again, but Wei Xian just woke up at this time. The old man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life was completely despairing at this moment, and he was about to fall down at any time like a withered grass.

"You treacherous son! Webster's century-old foundation is about to be destroyed in your hands. Come back quickly and don't become a sinner in the world!"

"Father, please open your eyes and see. The county magistrate has the support of the people. If you wait and fail, it is you who are destroying Webster's foundation, not me!"

"Aristocratic families are the people's heart. These humble people are not the people. You are just as crazy as the county magistrate!" Wei Xian scolded again.

"Father, don't say any more, just say whether you accept or not!" Wei Xuancheng asked indifferently.

"If my father refuses to surrender, what can you do to me!?" Wei Xian looked at Wei Xuancheng with a mocking look on his face.
