When the sky was getting dark, Jin Zhun changed his clothes and went to Changle Hall.
"Father." Queen Jin Yuehua was worried most of the night. When she saw Jin Junzhi, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and welcomed him in.
"Liu Can and his son were killed by me." Jin Zhun looked at his daughter and said bluntly.
Jin Yuehua was silent. After a moment, he sighed and said, "Father is reckless."
Jin Zhun also sighed.
Why didn't he know? But at that moment, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, so he couldn't help but take action.
He was not made to be an official, and he could not express his emotions and emotions. He was easily swayed by his emotions. Looking back afterwards, he felt a little regretful.
But once you’ve done it, there’s no point in saying anything else.
"Will you come home with me? Your mother-in-law, your brothers and sisters all miss you very much." Jin Zhun looked at his daughter and asked.
Jin Yuehua was a little moved.
After the two sisters entered the palace, they were favored at first because of their outstanding appearance. But as the emperor, how could Liu Can be without beautiful women around him? Over time, they were ignored.
The eldest sister was angry and could not keep her loneliness. She had an affair with a guard and was executed by the furious Liu Can. She claimed to have committed suicide.
Although Jin Yuehua didn't agree with her sister's approach, after all, they had grown up together. From her point of view, although she understood Liu Can's embarrassment, she was always unhappy.
After her sister's death, she was made queen, but that was just a high tribute, and the actual situation did not improve.
In fact, some coquettish bitches in the palace spread rumors about her, saying that the sisters were a piece of shit and would definitely have an affair in the future, which made Jin Yuehua feel even more dangerous and her days were like years.
Now that Liu Can is dead, I feel a little sad, but also relieved.
At least, no one would suddenly come up to her and ask her to commit suicide.
"How does father plan to deal with the situation in the city?" Jin Yuehua personally brought a mat to his father, asked him to sit down, and then asked.
Jin Zhun pondered for a moment and said: "I have sent people to contact Xin Shu, Jiang Ying, and You Ziyuan. These people are all in charge of soldiers, most of them are child servants in the city, and there are no less than eight thousand of them. They have long wanted to rebel, but
But I'm still hesitating. As long as I persuade you, I will definitely give it to you. Including the Qigu tribe in the east of the city, there will be nearly 18,000 cavalry, and it will be easy to kill Hu Yanshi and others."
"Father must not be careless." Jin Yuehua said: "Perhaps Xin Shu, Jiang Ying, You Ziyuan and others are still plotting to kill father."
Jin Zhun snorted.
Of course he has thought about this possibility, but the matter has reached this point and there is no other way. Only by uniting everyone and staying together as much as possible can we gain more benefits for the future.
If you are a mess, why should others think highly of you? People will only think that you are easy to control, and they will not give you the benefits you originally intended to give.
"Do you want to go home?" Jin Zhun asked a second time.
Jin Yuehua sighed and asked: "Where is the late emperor's concubine now?"
"They are all in Shaoxun's harem." When he said this, Jin Zhun frowned and said: "This person especially likes to humiliate the concubines of enemy countries and the families of generals and officials. The three empresses of the late emperor, Shi Le's wife Liu Shi, and Wang Junzhi
His wife Cui, Sima Ying's wife Le, Sima Yue's Pei, and Jin Hui's empress Yang were all kidnapped by him to enrich the harem and have the same virtue as Emperor Wu of Jin Sima Yan. If you stay in the palace -
—”
"Did any of the former emperors and concubines die suddenly?" Jin Yuehua asked.
Jin Zhun thought for a while and said, "I have never heard that his wife Liu gave birth to children for him."
Jin Yuehua showed no expression after hearing this, and just thought quietly.
After a long time, she sighed and said: "After the city was broken, if he didn't see his daughter, he would probably not be reconciled. I heard that he was born into a soldier's family and had been poor since he was a child. He might have particularly admired noble girls. If he was captured in the war,
The noble lady of the enemy country must be captured quickly. If the daughter comes home, will the father be able to handle it?"
When Jin Zhun heard this, a look of fierceness flashed across his face.
"Grandpa." Jin Yuehua grabbed his hand and said eagerly: "Now that the Liu family and his son have been executed, my father's reputation among the tribes has been greatly reduced. Even if they don't say anything due to the situation, they still have ideas in their hearts.
.If my father continues to be evil to Shao Xun, he will find an excuse to kill him in the future, and the rest of the clan will probably just applaud. In this way, the Jin family will be destroyed. Auntie, how can my brothers and sisters survive on their own?"
Jin Zhun was stunned for a moment, with a trace of confusion flashing across his face.
The palms and backs of your hands are all flesh, how can you favor one over the other?
"The Jin family is a wealthy Xiongnu family, but his father has been evil to all tribes. He seems to be dangerous, but he is in a different place. King Liang may find his father very useful." Jin Yuehua added: "The situation in Guanxi is initially set, and the situation is complicated. I think King Liang is also deeply concerned about it.
Feeling troublesome. He will not kill the Xiongnu completely, but will divide and rule and fight against each other.
The idea of ​​monitoring the Xiongnu. In this way, one or a few people are needed to temporarily control the Xiongnu tribes and prevent them from chaos. If it were replaced by someone with a higher reputation among the tribes, King Liang would be worried. His father is actually very suitable.
Man. Among the staff in charge of Xiongnu affairs in the general's palace, there must be a place for father."
The more Jin Zhun listened, the more sense it made, but he still felt a little unhappy.
Could it be that with my dedication to the city, I can’t save even one person?
At the same time, I felt a little ashamed. In order to build momentum, I specially invited Liu Can to his home for a drink and allowed him to meet his two daughters.
Unexpectedly, as times have changed, we still need to rely on these things.
"Father, let's deal with the big things first." Jin Yuehua sighed secretly and advised.
As long as her father's career progresses, as long as her sister can marry into a good family, and as long as the Jin family can still maintain wealth, so what if she is committed to Shao Xun? After returning home, doesn't she still have to marry? With her status, she can't marry into a good family.
, that being the case, how much difference is there?
******
After dawn, Jiang Ying led three thousand people to Weiyang Palace.
Of course, the Weiyang Palace at this time was already in ruins and desolate.
Some areas were completely abandoned and turned into orchards, woods, and ponds.
Some areas were converted into warehouses and military camps.
Two thousand people from Xin Shu's tribe were stationed in the northwest of Weiyang Palace, close to the Zhicheng Gate of the West City.
Chiang Ying's troops were stationed in the southeast of Weiyang Palace, opposite the An and Xi'an gates of the south city.
After three thousand people arrived here, they immediately caused a commotion.
They were originally servants of a wealthy family, with extremely limited combat capabilities. They were a mixture of Chinese and Chinese, and their languages ​​​​may not be the same. After being brought here by the chief, they were all a little scared and didn't know what to do.
The soldiers of the Xin tribe were generally the same. They even suspected that the Chiang tribe was about to rebel and pulled them together, so the noise continued. The Hu and Han warriors in the army were suspicious of each other, and the army almost fell apart.
Jiang Ying didn't have much to worry about anymore, so she entered the camp first and had a secret talk with Xin Shu.
After a while, he sent his old servants to various places.
Soon, Hu Xun, the official of Guanglu, Wang Guang, the minister, and You Ziyuan, the prefect of Feng Yi, arrived one after another.
"Jin Cheqi sent people to look for me last night." Xin Shu said straight to the point: "He seems to have rebel intentions and plans to surrender the city."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised.
"Why did Jin Zhun rebel? Impossible!" Hu Xun shook his head and said: "Since Queen Huyan died of illness, her daughter Jin has been appointed as the queen. Jin Zhun is also a general of chariots and cavalry. He is in charge of national affairs and is prohibited from entering and leaving. Common things Also, my younger brother Jin Ming led the bodyguards as a right-guard general. Many of the other nephews and nephews of the Jin family have come to serve as officials. With such honor and favor, how could he rebel? What's the benefit of rebelling?"
When everyone heard this, they thought, yes, they had even thought about someone in Liu Han's clan rebelling, but they never thought about Jin Zhun's rebellion. It was obviously unreasonable.
"Jin Zhun has offended too many people." Wang Kuang said: "What is this gentleman doing by offering up his daughter for honor? Jin Zhun was also involved in the killing of Liu Yi's gang members. I'm afraid Feng Yi and Di Qiang will not Give him a good look."
"What's the grudge between Jin Zhun and Liu Yi?" Xin Shu asked, puzzled.
"You don't know that this is unusual." Wang Kuang sighed.
He is a Huns, so it is easier for him to know some secrets.
"In the past, Liu Yi had a child who was Jin Zhun's younger sister and committed adultery with a waiter. When the incident happened, he killed her in anger. He repeatedly laughed at Jin Zhun about this incident, and he deeply hated him." Wang Kuang said: "Later there was a time During the meeting, Jin Zhun advised the emperor, saying, "As the deputy of all things in the East Palace, it is appropriate for His Highness to live there, so that the world will know that he has long been concerned about it." Yi's death actually began here. He was inherently wrong, but Jin Zhun The desire to retaliate is also frightening."
At this point, he paused and said: "When the late emperor was in power, a fire broke out in the Baitang Hall, killing King Liu Kang of Kuaiji (some say Liu Zhong) and twenty-one others. There was a rumor in the palace that the emperor (Liu Can) When I heard about this incident, I was extremely shocked, and it was obviously not his doing. This incident may have been done by Jin Zhun, who burned many princes to death in one go, and the late emperor lived here at the time. This kind of revenge is really shocking."
Everyone took a breath of cold air.
If this is true, Jin Zhun's cruelty is really scary.
"So - what happened today?" Xin Shu was the first to recover from the shock, looked at everyone and asked.
Hu Xun sighed and said: "What else can be done? No matter how vicious Jin Zhun is, he has to wait for this matter to pass first. If he doesn't follow him, he will definitely lead his troops to attack. Hu Yanzhi is in Beicheng. He is a close confidant of the emperor and will definitely not do it.
Sit back and watch.City
There may be people who support the Jin family, and there may also be soldiers loyal to the emperor. Then they will kill each other, and a melee will be detected by the Jin army. The city of Chang'an cannot be saved. Those miscellaneous Hu soldiers outside the city, do you want to see them?
Are you allowed in?"
Everyone's expressions changed.
Only those with abnormal brains would let the miscellaneous soldiers enter the city. If they really want to surrender, it is better to let the King of Liang come in. He has to save face and will not massacre the city.
Then, the situation is clear: be loyal to the emperor Liu Can, or rebel with Jin Zhun?
Actually, it's not that hard to choose.
Even if he stood on the side of the emperor as a loyal minister and defeated Jin Zhun, he ran out and surrendered to the king of Liang, and then came back to fight, once the city was broken, all of them would be liquidated.
Is it very likely that the city will be destroyed? It is simply inevitable, it will only happen sooner or later.
They could only stand by Jin Zhun's side, or even abandon Jin Zhun and go it alone.
First of all, the soldiers in his hands cannot fight, and they will inevitably be defeated by Jin Zhun in one blow.
Secondly, Jin Zhun is a man who is determined to retaliate, so it is best not to offend him.
"Then let's work with Jin Zhun." Xin Shu said: "He needs us to lead the army to defend the city and prevent the miscellaneous soldiers from entering, so that we can free our hands to clean up the enemy. This matter will benefit both sides, and separate it will cause two harms. In the future
Let’s talk about it in the future, let’s get through the current difficulties first.”
"Okay." The others had no objections and quickly split up.
At this time, Jin Zhun summoned the generals to discuss matters in the name of the general of chariots and cavalry, and arrested and killed more than ten people including Zuowei General Hu Yanshi, Western Expedition General Liu Hou, Taifu Zhu Ji, Taibao Huyanyan, etc. on the spot.
At about this time, the heads of Liu Can, Liu Yuangong and his son were also sent to Weibei Shao Xun's desk.
Shao Xun was a little surprised when he heard the messenger describe what happened last night in detail, especially after repeatedly asking for details.
"Send the order, the army crosses the river and marches south. I want to conduct a grand review of the troops and horses of all the troops." Shao Xun called the incoming army adviser Zhang Bin and said: "Meng Sun quickly went to send the order, and all the Yinqiang, Heigui troops and all the Fu soldiers were sent."
Gather together, I will show those miscellaneous soldiers what true military power is like."
"Immediately make the official seal of the general who protects the Huns, and the envoy will take it back and give it to Jin Zhun."
"Send orders to An Ding and Fufeng to place the captured Dingkou of Jin's tribe on the spot and provide them with food and grass. Take Jin Kang out of the prison and keep him in the house."
…
After issuing one order after another, Shao Xun sat back on the desk and took a sip of water.
After putting down the tea bowl, he waved.
Huang Zheng, the pro-military governor, understood and quietly stepped forward.
Shao Xun whispered: "After entering the city, you lead people to take over Chang'an Palace and treat Queen Jin Yuehua with courtesy. If she wants to leave, let her go."
Huang Zheng was a little surprised.
Shao Xun laughed and scolded: "Why do you think so of me? It's not worth forcing Jin to rebel for a woman."
"As ordered." Huang Zheng quietly retreated.
