Chapter 398 I will never surrender!
Changying sipped tea slowly, and said with downcast eyes: "I remember a fool who thought that I would never come back after I went down the mountain, and sat blankly in the dark, looking helplessly like a puppy that was left behind."

Yang Su sat for a while, then his chest rose and fell, and his cheeks shyly said: "You are the puppy!"

After finishing speaking, I couldn't help it anymore, put down the booklet, and leaned towards her: "Why didn't you tell me earlier when I remembered?!"

"I didn't have time, I was just looking for my aunt."

Yang Su smacked her elbow with a fan: "Up to now, I still only think about the Ling family!"

The East Palace is no better than the palace, there are palace people everywhere, so don't make too much fuss.After he finished speaking, he glanced at her again, hooked his fingers on the back of her hand, and his whole body was full of joy.

……

The next step is to wipe out the rebels.

There have been military reports coming from the south in the past few days. Fu Jun started to send troops from the middle of Shu, all the way to the north, and the Marquis of Zhen'an who went south led the army to respond. Now the most urgent military situation has come from the Central Plains.

Naturally, the soldiers and horses in Gyeonggi cannot be transferred outside, so the only way is to order the guards at all levels to transfer troops to fight.

The current battle situation can sustain it.

But such consumption is of no benefit to the imperial court and the people's livelihood. The war is directly related to the livelihood of the people. The common people are illiterate, and there are few visionaries. When their survival is threatened, they often only listen to the provocations of the situation in front of them.

When the rebels distort the facts and instigate rebellion locally, it is easy to cause popular rebellion.If the incident expands, even if it can defeat people in the end, it will eventually lose huge human and financial resources.

Even if some scholars know the truth, they will inevitably be deceived because the news is not delivered in time.

In short, prolonged procrastination is absolutely harmful.

When discussing the state affairs in the East Palace, Ling Yuan proposed: "The Fu family members are escorted by the Marquis of Zhen'an and are on their way south to meet Fu Mingjiang. Among them, the Fu family should be the ones making trouble. The Fu family has no way out, and it is impossible for them to surrender.

"But the Marquis of Zhen'an only wanted to come because of the grievances between King Guangshu and Fu Rong. If there is a way to use King Guangshu's side to persuade Marquis Zhen'an to surrender, it would not be difficult to deal with Fu Mingjiang."

Song Chengdao: "Anyway, King Guangshu is a hero who founded the country. If His Highness can express his intention to treat the He family well, he will win many hearts. In addition, Fu Mingjiang is using His Highness to kill and poke the heroes as a cover to deceive the world. His Highness is indeed It is time to show an attitude as soon as possible to set the record straight.”

Yang Su was speechless.

He doesn't have any objection to Guangshu Palace, only Emperor Fu Rong and the Fu family have objections to him.Song Cheng's proposal was spot on, but when he thought of Fu Rong's call to Changying before his death—even if he knew he should show kindness to the He family, he couldn't bypass Fu Rong.

But this matter can't be willful, he stared at the map for a while, then raised his eyes and said: "There is no reason for the sudden seizure of the seal right now, not to mention that there is no one in the He family. Is there any other way?"

Song Cheng frowned and thought.

Xie Peng, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said: "Why don't I go south to find Marquis Zhen'an and try."

"You?" Yang Su looked over.

Xie Peng said: "Earlier, I had dealt with the He family a few times in Wucheng yamen, and I heard that Marquis Zhen'an had been stationed in Jinan for many years, and I happened to grow up in Tai'an, so maybe there is something I can talk to.

"Furthermore, if you want to persuade you to surrender, you have to send someone from the imperial court to show your sincerity."

Yang Su thought for a while, then looked at Ling Yuan: "When it comes to conversation, aren't you more sure about cherishing it?"

"How can Lord Hou go south at this time? Anyway, I haven't officially taken office yet, let me try." Xie Peng said.

Yang Su didn't seem to find any reason to object.

He had known Xie Peng since he was ten years old, and they stayed together for three or four months in a year. Xie Peng came to Huizhou when he was 15 years old, and then conspired with him for big things. He knew him well, and he was not sure that he would not insistent.

Then he said to Song Yi: "Let Xie Peng go and have a look first." Then he said: "Let Ling Song accompany you."

Song Cheng nodded, and told Xie Peng: "The Marquis of Zhen'an values ​​love and righteousness, you should act carefully, and don't let the Fu family who are traveling with you hinder the plan."

Xie Peng responded: "You should be cautious everywhere."

……

Changying invited Ji Zhiyuan to drink tea at noon, but she didn't come until noon. It turned out that Ling Song was going to go with Xie Pengnan to persuade Marquis Zhenan to surrender, and had just sent him out.

"Why Xie Peng?" Hearing this, Changying couldn't help wondering.

"I don't know about this either," Ji Zhiyuan said, "But this is a time when I'm using someone, and Mr. Xie is His Highness's confidant, so it's normal to send him there."

Changying wasn't saying that it was abnormal, but she just felt that logically there were more suitable candidates than Xie Peng, such as those eloquent civil servants in the Six Departments, and more important figures like Ling Yuan.

However, if you think about it from another angle, Yang Su relied on people like Ling Yuan Dongyang Bo to start his business, and there are not many people around him. If Xie Peng can make a contribution at this time, it will be more beneficial to Yang Su's future governance. Tangle again.

……

The Marquis of Zhen'an protected Fu's family and retreated while fighting. By the beginning of April, he had reached the border of Taiyuan.

At the beginning, Fu Min was suspicious of Fu Rong, but was forcibly escorted by Fu Ying to Zhuangzi and detained there and not allowed to go out, he was almost deranged.

Not long after, there was another big commotion in the capital. Marquis Zhen'an led troops and horses to go out of Beijing with the old ladies of the Fu family overnight. Halfway through, he learned that Fu Rong was dead, and Fu Ying had also been arrested and committed suicide. It was like pushing him into a frying pan!

He has a very close friendship with the Ling family's children, especially Changying, and he never expected to be reduced to this point.

The person who hurt Changying was actually Fu Rong, which is unimaginable. His elder brother seldom saw people in his eyes since he was a child, and Shen Ying alone made him a little more patient. Unexpectedly, he would treat her in order to fight for power. You can do it too!
But even if the tip of the knife is pointed at the neck, you have to resist. On the way to the south, the old lady was angry and sick, and the house was in a state of discord. Although there are radical supporters who agree with Fu Mingjiang's approach, there are also some who can't bear it. Live in this exciting and terrified person all day long.

Most of the children of the Fu family who went south with the army are in the same mood as Fu Min, but it is a pity that there is no way to turn back on this road.

After Xie Peng arrived in Taiyuan, he first went to Dongyang Bohang camp.

Hearing that they came to persuade them to surrender, Bo Dongyang immediately showed disapproval on his face: "It's okay to say that Fu Rong is not dead, but he is already dead. Their He family was originally the general of the He family, until He Yi went up for several generations. It's impossible for He Yi to surrender only if she stands on her own."

Xie Peng said: "I've come here, I have to try. Uncle help me find an opportunity, I will talk to her alone."

Uncle Dongyang thought that it was Yang Su's intention, so he had to obey, so he set about making arrangements.

When the Marquis of Zhen'an received the letter from the envoy, he was discussing the strategy with his followers in a hoarse voice.

"That Xie Peng next to Yang Su?" She turned her head to look at the envoy, and said indifferently: "No matter who is here, go back and tell him, I, He Yi, will never surrender!"
