The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Chapter 202 The Chaotic "Mutiny"

The suburbs of Beijing, Royal Garden.

The general of the Han Dynasty blew the ox horn representing the emperor's visit to the Royal Garden.

The soldiers counting platform in the center of the royal garden.

Emperor Hongzhi was wearing a dragon-patterned cloth armor and stood high on the stage.

Civil officials live on the left side of Bingtai.Their task today is not to accompany Emperor Hongzhi on hunting, but to write poems and paintings to praise the majestic scene of the emperor's hunting.

In front of the counting platform, all the generals participating in the hunt are already on horseback, with bows and arrows on their backs.The leader among them is naturally King Xing.

Chang Feng, as a military officer of Jinyiwei, is also among them.

He thought mockingly: Xiaoyan is good at archery.It's a pity that she is a female stream and cannot participate in shooting and hunting.If she were present today, she would definitely win the first place.

Emperor Hongzhi finished counting troops.About to announce the start of the hunt.

Suddenly, Liu Jin led a small mule to the soldiers counting platform.

The eight-year-old Prince Zhu Houzhao sat on the little mule.Zhu Houzhao was wearing a cloth armor that had been reduced in size.He held a small bow in his hand.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and asked, "Zhao'er, do you want to participate in shooting and hunting?"

Zhu Houzhao replied: "Father, my son also wants to show his talents in the Royal Garden today!"

At this moment, Li Dongyang walked out from the civil service class.Shouted: "Prince not allowed!"

Zhu Houzhao asked: "Sir, why not?"

Li Dongyang was Zhu Houzhao's teacher after he left the cabinet.So Zhu Houzhao called him "Mr."

Li Dongyang said in the tone of a teacher: "Did your Highness forget what I taught you? A gentleman does not build a dangerous wall, does not stray from the road, and does not enter deep water!"

"The son of heaven does not climb high when he is old! The prince does not shoot when he is young!"

Zhu Houzhao is a very assertive child.But children have their own opinions and are often regarded as rebellious and disobedient by adults.

Zhu Houzhao's teachers were all civil servants.These teachers usually complained in front of Emperor Hongzhi, saying that His Royal Highness did not respect the way of teachers and did not listen to their words.

Li Dongyang earnestly said: "Your Highness, you are still young. You should learn from the words of the saints. It will not be too late to participate in hunting after you are weak."

Zhu Houzhao replied in a childish voice: "Sir, you are wrong! I just heard Liu Jin say that when the Taizu raised troops in Haozhou, there were hundreds of 'boy red scarves' under his command."

"They are not a few years older than Gu. But they are all brave. They scouted out the enemy's situation, laid traps, and made a lot of meritorious deeds."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly: "There is indeed such a thing."

Li Dongyang's literati nature is fully revealed at this moment: "Your Highness, as the crown prince of a country, how can you listen to an eunuch? Please return to the East Palace quickly and study the scriptures of the sages."

Li Dongyang was always worried that Zhu Houzhao relied too much on Liu Jin.

In his view, master and apprentice are like father and son.The prince can only rely on him, a serious teacher, how can he obey an eunuch?

Emperor Hongzhi asked Zhu Houzhao, "Zhaoer, what do you say?"

Although Zhu Houzhao is young, he is extremely alert.His answer is well-founded: "I report to my father. Emperor Taizu Gao won the world immediately. The reason why my ministers participated in shooting and hunting is to imitate Emperor Gao of Taizu since childhood!"

Li Dongyang became impatient: "Your Highness is only eight years old, how dare you compare yourself to the Emperor Taizu?"

Zhu Houzhao choked Li Dongyang with a single sentence: "Sir, didn't you teach Gu to chase after a sage yesterday?"

Li Dongyang was furious.Lao Tzu is a majestic emperor teacher and storage teacher.To be contradicted in public by the eight-year-old Chujun student?

Li Dongyang did not adjust his position.The relationship between monarch and minister is far greater than the relationship between teacher and student.

No wonder Zhu Houzhao didn't wait to see him when he grew up.

The conflict between students and teachers, between civil servants and the future emperor, sowed the seeds.

Emperor Hongzhi doted on Zhu Houzhao very much and was obedient to him.Emperor Hongzhi suffered a lot when he was a child, and he didn't want his son to suffer any grievances.

Emperor Hongzhi laughed heartily: "Zhaoer said well. I allow you to participate in today's hunting."

Li Dongyang was speechless.

At the order of Emperor Hongzhi, the crowd rode into the depths of the imperial garden, shooting and hunting the wolves, deer, pheasants, and rabbits raised in the imperial garden along the way.

The 29-year-old Emperor Hongzhi is in his prime, but his body is not even as good as the old Ma Wensheng.

After riding the horse for only two minutes, he was so tired that he was out of breath.I had to dismount and rest.Li Guang waited on him.

The rest continued to shoot and hunt.

Let's say that Chang Feng has been riding a horse and following the prince Zhu Houzhao who is riding a little mule.

Suddenly, a wild pheasant appeared twenty steps ahead of Chang Feng.

Chang Feng immediately raised his bow and set an arrow, and after a while he put down the bow and arrow, and said to Zhu Houzhao, "Your Highness, look, there is a wild pheasant ahead."

Chang Feng just wants Zhu Hou to get over the addiction of archery.

In his opinion, an eight-year-old child still uses a small bow and arrow.How could it be possible to shoot a wild pheasant twenty paces away?
Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao drew the bow, nocked the arrow, aimed, and loosened the string in a decent manner.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow flew straight towards the wild pheasant. "puff"!Unbiased, right in the belly of the pheasant!

Chang Feng was dumbfounded: "Your Highness, Your Highness shoots!"

Zhu Houzhao is actually a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.He was complacent: "What is this? Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of eight. It is not uncommon for Gu to shoot a wild pheasant at the age of eight."

In his bones, Zhu Houzhao is very similar to his ancestor: Emperor Taizong Zhu Di.

A big Han general stepped forward and picked up the prey that Zhu Hou had illuminated.

Chang Feng thought to himself: Bring the prey back in a while.I don't know how embarrassing the prince's teacher Li Dongyang will be.

At this moment, Shi Wenyi came over on horseback: "Master Chang, the emperor got off his horse and rested. He asked you to follow the prince closely."

Chang Feng nodded: "Well, I will definitely protect the prince well."

Let's say that twenty miles to the north of Yuyuan, Fenwu camp is stationed.

In the civil fort change, the three major battalions were completely lost.In the battle to defend the capital, the three major battalions were rebuilt.

After the war, Yu Qian selected capable soldiers from the new three major battalions and divided them into ten battalions for regiment training.

After Yu Qian's death, the regiment camp was abolished.

During the Chenghua period, Emperor Chenghua revived the regiment camp.Formed into twelve regiment battalions.

They are four martial arts camps: Fenwu, Yaowu, Lianwu, and Xianwu.

Four brave battalions: Bravery, Fruity Courage, Demonstration Courage, and Encouraging Courage.

Four prestige battalions: Li Wei, Extend Wei, Yang Wei, Zhen Wei.

Among the twelve regiment battalions, the Fenwu battalion is the most powerful.It is the elite of the elite.Similar to Napoleon's Old Guard.

All the soldiers in the Fenwu Camp are selected veterans who have fought in battles and killed people.Mainly cavalry.In the army, good horses and good weapons are given priority to equip the Fenwu Battalion.

At this moment, the school grounds of the Fenwu Camp are performing a military exercise.The governor Shi Wenzhong and the supervising eunuch Zhang Yong issued military orders in an orderly manner.

Zhang Yongsheng was very strong and strong.If he wasn't wearing the eunuch's uniform, others might mistake him for a general.

Shi Wenzhong, the eldest brother of Jin Yiwei's "big man" Shi Wenyi, has a very good personal relationship with Zhang Yong on weekdays.

Under the joint training of the two, the combat power of the [-]th Regiment Battalion has steadily improved.

Shi Wenzhong said with a smile: "Eunuch Zhang, the Fenwu camp is now very much like Huo Qubing's tiger and light cavalry in the Han Dynasty. Going deep into the hinterland of the grassland, it is not a problem to surprise the Tatar camp."

Zhang Yongdao: "It's a pity that there are too few people in the Fenwu Camp. There are only 6000 people."

"If you can train ten martial arts battalions, what is the little Tartar prince? It's just a piece of meat on the chopping board."

The two were talking, when a hundred households from the camp ran over in a hurry.

Hundreds of households clapped their hands together: "Shi Shuai, Eunuch Zhang, something serious has happened. There is an assassination in the imperial garden! A big man general under Master Chang of Jin Yiwei came to ask for help!"

Shi Wenzhong's complexion changed: "What? Where's the big Han general?"

As soon as the words fell, two soldiers walked over with a big Han general whose face was covered in blood.

There were several obvious knife wounds on this big man general, and he looked like he escaped from the encirclement after a narrow escape.

Shi Wenzhong asked: "What's going on?"

The general of the Han said weakly: "A group of Tatar cavalry sneaked across the Great Wall. They colluded with the people in the capital and found out that the emperor is hunting in the imperial garden today."

"They have more than 3000 people, and there are only [-] big Han generals accompanying them. We are outnumbered."

Zhang Yong was anxious, and directly grabbed the collar of the big Han general: "How is the emperor?"

The big Han general was speechless: "Your Majesty, woo woo woo!"

Zhang Yong suddenly felt bad: "Don't squeeze the horse piss! Tell me, what happened?"

The big Han general said: "The emperor was killed by the Tatar cavalry, and the dragon rode back to heaven."

Zhang Yong and Shi Wenzhong froze in place.

The current emperor was killed by the Tatars?Daming's sky is falling!

The two looked at each other, their faces livid.

The general of the Han Dynasty took out a dispatch order from his pocket: "His Royal Highness King Xing ordered the Fenwu Camp to go to the imperial garden immediately to wipe out the Tartar soldiers and protect the prince!"

In Daming, troop deployment was an extremely sensitive matter.The troop transfer procedure is very cumbersome.

The order to deploy troops needs to be stamped with the seal of the emperor, the official seal of the minister of the Ministry of War, and the seal of the commander of the five armies.

If the transfer is from the frontier army, it will also be stamped with the seal of the local general army.

However, the troop dispatch order presented by General Dahan was only stamped with King Xing's personal seal and Chang Feng's signature.

Zhang Yong took a rough look: "I have seen Chang Feng's memorial, it is his handwriting."

Shi Wenzhong said solemnly: "When Daming is in crisis, the two of us should make a decisive decision!"

Zhang Yong said decisively: "Call all the soldiers of Fenwu Battalion immediately. Hurry up and rush to Yuyuan."

Six thousand soldiers of the Fenwu Battalion mounted their horses, armored and sharpened, and marched mightily towards the Imperial Garden.

The two were fooled!
But they didn't fall for it because they were stupid.

If it were any general who was loyal to the emperor and the court, he heard that the emperor was in danger and died, and the prince was in danger.Regardless of whether it is true or not, they will definitely lead troops to find out.

At the same time, in the royal garden.

Emperor Hongzhi rested under the shade of a big willow tree.Surrounding the big willow tree, there are more than 100 guarding generals and dozens of serving eunuchs.

Li Guang fanned Emperor Hongzhi from the sidelines.

Three miles away from the big willow tree.Prince Zhu Houzhao found a wolf.

Among the Royal Garden, the highest level of prey is the wolf.

Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed.But he knew how much he weighed.With the small broken bow in his hand, he absolutely couldn't hit the wolf.

Zhu Houzhao showed the commander-in-chief talent brought in his mother's womb.

He commanded in an orderly manner: "Chang Feng, you take ten people and go from the left. Shi Wenyi, take ten people and go from the right."

"Liu Jin, take ten people around and block it. I will take the main force of the Chinese army and stay still, so as not to scare it away!"

"Wait until you are surrounded on three sides, and then I will lead people to rush over!"

Hey, not to mention, Zhu Houzhao, who was riding on a short mule, dispatched troops and dispatched generals, quite a bit of a heroic general.

Chang Feng thought to himself: Although this method may not be wise.But the prince knew at the age of eight that it was not easy to turn rounds.

Everyone acted separately according to Zhu Houzhao's instructions.

But the wolf was very cunning and ran away.Zhu Houzhao was so angry that he shot a few arrows over the mule to vent his anger.

Suddenly, Chang Feng and the others heard the sound of "Boom, Boom".

Qian Ning beside him was a little strange: "Why is there thunder in the clear sky?"

Chang Feng frowned: "It doesn't sound like thunder. It's more like the hooves of a large cavalry marching."

Qian Ning was at a loss: "Cavalry? The man in charge of guarding the imperial garden is General Jin Yiwei. You didn't let them gather and march!"

Changfeng shaded the sun with his hands, looking into the distance.Suddenly, he found a black mass of cavalry appeared at the end of the horizon!
The cavalry marched and rolled up billows of yellow dust.

Chang Feng turned pale with shock: "Could it be that the Tatars crossed the Great Wall?"

Qian Ning's eyes were much better than Chang Feng's: "No. They are wearing mandarin ducks and battle jackets! It's the Ming army!"

Chang Feng took a breath: "It may also be a Tatar pretending to be a Ming army. Today, the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion have not transferred the garrison of the Beijing camp to follow!"

Qian Ning was shocked: "Ah? Then what should I do?"

Chang Feng made a prompt decision: "Hurry up! Shoot the arrows and gather the generals of the Han Dynasty. Protect the emperor, prince, and King Xing first!"

This is really a coincidence.Chang Feng took the Fenwuying who came to "protect King Qin" as Tatars who sneaked across the Great Wall in disguise and attacked the Royal Garden.

Emperor Hongzhi was taking a rest under the big willow tree.

Suddenly, Li Guang shook his shoulders: "Your Majesty, it's not good."

Emperor Hongzhi asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Guang pointed with his hand: "Look, Your Majesty!"

I saw eight hundred Han generals forming a big circle around the big willow tree.

Chang Feng and King Xing strode towards Emperor Hongzhi.Zhu Houzhao followed behind with his legs swinging.

Li Guangdao: "Your Majesty, something is wrong! Why did Chang Feng let the big Han general surround you?"

A suspicious expression appeared on Emperor Hongzhi's face: "Yes. The hunting went well. Why did the big Han generals suddenly gather and surround me?"

Li Guang pointed to the distance again: "Your Majesty, look, there is a large group of cavalry in the imperial garden! Could it be that the inside should cooperate with the outside?"

"Ah! The big thing is not good! Someone is plotting against you, Your Majesty!"

By accident, Yuyuan was in a mess!
Chang Feng walked in front of Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, there may be Tatars pretending to be Ming soldiers, crossing the Great Wall and heading directly to the Royal Garden in the suburbs of Beijing."

"The minister will lead the big Han general, and swear to protect the Lord to the death!"

King Xing shouldn't have said anything, "My brother will also swear to protect the lord to the death!"

The little prince Zhu Houzhao echoed: "My son, my son will follow the fourth uncle and Chang Feng to protect him to the death!"

It's too late, but it's fast.Gu Dayong at the side drew out his waist knife with lightning speed, and laid it across Chang Feng's neck.

Gu Dayong said: "Chang Feng, are you going to collude with King Xing to mutiny and kill the lord? Tell the big Han generals to disperse. Otherwise, don't blame my steel sword for being ruthless!"

Li Guang echoed: "Yes! Chang Feng, King Xing, don't be wishful thinking!"

After speaking, Li Guanghu stood in front of Emperor Hongzhi, opened his arms, and made a gesture of protecting the Lord.

Chang Feng was impatient: "When is this! Gu Dayong, don't mess around! If you delay King Qin's escort, Daming's sky will collapse! Put down the knife!"

Gu Dayong sneered: "I put down the knife and let you assassinate the king?"

At this moment, Shi Wenyi ran over in a hurry: "Your Majesty, the cavalry on the outskirts is the Fenwu Battalion. They are led by my eldest brother Shi Wenzhong and Zhang Yongzhang."

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi became even more suspicious: "I never asked the Ministry of War to send a military battalion to the Royal Garden!"

Li Guang turned his head and said to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, it really is a collusion between inside and outside, mutiny and rebellion!"

Let's talk about Shi Wenzhong and Li Guang.The two led their troops to Yuyuan and realized something was wrong.

Where is the shadow of the Tatars in the royal garden?Where is the scene of the fierce battle between the Tatars and the big Han generals?

Shi Wenzhong said: "It's strange. Could it be that the injured general just lied to us?"

Zhang Yong asked a thousand households in a loud voice: "Where is the big Han general who was injured just now?"

Qianhu replied: "Eunuch Zhang, didn't you see that he was seriously injured and let him stay in the camp to bandage and heal?"

At this moment, Li Guang rode to a distance of more than ten steps in front of the two of them.

Li Guang asked, "Why did you bring troops to the Royal Garden without a purpose or order?"

Shi Wenzhong replied: "His Royal Highness Xing Wang and Chang Tongzhi sent us to protect the prince."

As soon as these words came out, Li Guang was ecstatic in his heart.

Li Guang said in a dark voice: "It's a joke. What right do the vassal king and his retainers have to mobilize the troops of the Beijing camp?"

"Shi Wenyi, Zhang Yong, you two are in trouble! Follow me to see the emperor!"

Shi Wenzhong was surprised: "Didn't the emperor die?"

Li Guang's complexion changed: "Okay, let's stop calling yourself! You are colluding with King Xing and Chang Feng to mutiny."

"You think Changfeng Assassin King Shajia has succeeded, right?"
