Wang Yue knew that Wang Anshi's body could still live for a long time, and it was very easy to survive the death of two emperors. Regarding the reform, he could take his time and he was not in a hurry.
So on the way north, Wang Yue was in a good mood. He traveled all the way and had a picnic from time to time.
Wang Anshi looked at the leisurely Wang Yue and felt helpless. He also knew that Wang Yue might want to use this method to remind him not to rush about reform, especially now that the situation in Tokyo is very chaotic and requires a calm mind to deal with it.
.
Wang Anshi regretted it now, even a little ashamed. He originally dragged Wang Yue out of the Hanlin Academy and went to Fujian with him just to get rid of the chaos in the capital.
I have only been working for a year and a half now, and I am back again. I don’t know how long I will stay in Tokyo, let alone whether I can escape this dispute.
When Wang Yue and his party passed by Suzhou, they stayed in Suzhou for two days and stayed with Wang's father and mother for two days. They left Minglan and Xiao Tuantuan to accompany the two elders and immediately went north again.
When passing by Yuzhou, Yuzhou regiment coach Zhao Zongshi and his eldest son Zhao Ceying came out from a distance to greet him, along with Gu Tingye.
Wang Yue knew that the group of people greeted Wang Anshi, and the only person who truly greeted him was Gu Tingye.
The group of people chatted on the official road for a while, and Zhao Zongshi led the way, leading Wang Anshi and his group toward the inn.
When passing through a dense forest, Daniel suddenly rushed forward on horseback and stood in front of everyone, causing the team to stop moving forward.
Zhao Zongshi and Wang Anshi were both very suspicious. They didn't understand why Wang Yue's entourage suddenly showed up. However, they were both calm people. They didn't say anything at the moment, waiting for the big man to speak.
Without letting everyone wait for a long time, Daniel took the lead and spoke. However, he was not talking to everyone, but shouted angrily into the woods, "Why don't you show up quickly?"
Gu Tingye and Zhao Ceying were both shocked. They had been assassinated several times. They quickly protected Zhao Zongshi on both sides to prevent Zhao Zongshi from being hurt.
Wang Yue asked the guards to protect the whole group of people in the middle, while he rode his horse forward and stood with Da Niu, looking at the dense forest in a prepared manner.
It's just that the people lurking opposite were very calm. After a while, they didn't mean to make a sound, as if they thought Daniel was deceiving them.
Wang Yue sneered disdainfully, took off his longbow from his horse, pulled out an arrow, and shot an arrow into the forest.
The arrow shot through the air and penetrated into the dense forest in the blink of an eye. Almost at the same time, a painful scream came from the forest, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The people in ambush in the forest also realized at this time that their traces were really exposed. However, this group of people seemed to have come with an order. When they saw that the raid failed, they immediately changed to a violent attack.
However, although the number of people in this ambush was relatively large, they were no match for Wang Yue and Daniu. Without Wang Yue's guards taking action, Wang Yue and his two men killed all the dozens of people who made a sneak attack.
Wang Yue's men and Gu Tingye had long been accustomed to Wang Yue's abnormal martial arts, and they just watched the two men's performances enthusiastically.
Zhao Zongshi and his son almost stared out of their eyes, and Wang Anshi even pulled out a few strands of his beard. The scene in front of them somewhat subverted their understanding.
When ordinary people are being assassinated, most of the time the master retreats and the guards step forward to protect him. It is rare to see Wang Yue like this, letting the guards wait behind him and then rushing forward to resolve the battle himself.
This way of fighting is just like fighting in front of the battle. It looks very passionate and boosts morale. It's like the difference between when the leader calls me to charge me and when the leader calls me to charge me.
Even Zhao Zongshi's subordinates were all experienced in the military. When they looked at Wang Yue and Daniu, they felt incredible and a little eager in their expressions. After all, the military worshiped the strong.
After everything settled, Zhao Zongshi found that all those people had been killed, so he looked at Wang Yue with some curiosity and asked in a deep voice, "Wang Tanhua, why didn't you leave one alive?"
Wang Yue was still very polite to the future emperor. He bowed his hands and saluted, and then said with a smile, "The skills of these men in black are somewhat similar to the ones Zhong Huai and I saw in Tokyo.
They should be those of the two princes in the capital, whether they are left alive or not is meaningless."
Zhao Zongshi nodded and understood what Wang Yue meant. In the current situation, keeping the evidence would lead to a stronger attack. He didn't want to go to so much trouble, so he smiled and said, "It was that time that Zhong Huai saved his wife.
Times?"
Wang Yue glanced at Gu Tingye, and then said in a deep voice, "Yes, the two of us are destined to be together. At that time, we were accompanying a group of female relatives and had a lot of guards. It happened that one of the guards saw the group of men in black.
Motivated by our chivalrous heart, we went there."
Gu Tingye also sneered at this time and said, "I was just protecting the sedan. It was mainly because of Wang Yue, but he was already engaged to his younger brother and sister, so he was afraid of getting into trouble."
Everyone laughed when they heard this tidbit of news, and the depressing atmosphere that had just been assassinated disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After this assassination, Wang Yue and his party no longer stayed at the inn, but were directly invited by Zhao Tuanlian to stay temporarily at his house.
Zhao Tuanlian and Wang Anshi chatted animatedly, while Zhao Tuanlian's eldest son followed Wang Si like a little fanboy.
Gu Tingye and Wang Yue followed behind without disturbing the three people in front. Gu Tingye looked around and then asked, "You are so well-informed. Did you have a plan for this time? Are you here specifically to save people?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "I said it was such a coincidence. Do you believe it?"
Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue for a while and then said, "Am I that naive?"
Wang Yue was speechless. He said depressedly, "Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway."
...
Wang Yue and his party stayed in Yuzhou for another two days. I don't know what Wang Anshi and Zhao Zongshi and his son talked about. When they set off again, Zhao Zongshi and his son also brought a team of soldiers and horses as guards to escort the group to Tokyo.
When the group arrived outside Tokyo, the family members of Zhao Zongshi and his son stayed with Gu Tingye temporarily in a secret place owned by Gu Tingye.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi did not stop any longer. They rushed into the city with some soldiers sent by Zhao Zongshi.
There were no outsiders at this time, and Wang Yue asked doubtfully, "Uncle, why are Zhao Zongshi and his son allowed to leave Yuzhou at this time? In this case, their situation will be very dangerous."
Wang Anshi rolled his eyes, and said helplessly, "We saved Zhao Zongshi and his son, and have offended the two princes in Beijing, and now they are inseparable from each other. Moreover, now they dare to assassinate the clan blatantly, this is
It shows that the battle for the reserve position in the capital has reached its extreme, and the official's health may fail at any time."
The prince nodded after hearing this. Neither of the two princes in Beijing seemed to be a man of great ambition. If he wanted to live a comfortable life in the Song Dynasty and help Wang Anshi realize his dream, he had to make a choice.
...
After Wang Yue and Wang Anshi entered the city, they rushed straight to the imperial city. It turned out that there were very few people in the lively streets. Anyone who wanted to come to Beijing knew that it was not peaceful recently, and everyone closed their doors tightly.
Don't go out if necessary.
What made Wang Yue strange was that when Wang Yue and Wang Anshi rushed to the gate of the imperial city, the gate was already closed. No matter how Wang Anshi and Wang Yue called the door, no one opened it.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi looked at each other, knowing that something might have happened in the imperial city, so they quickly returned to their horses to avoid it, and made a decision after understanding the situation.
However, Wang Yue and Wang Anshi had just taken a few steps with their guards when a group of people rushed out of Huangcheng and rushed towards them.
Wang Yue saw that these people came with bad intentions, and felt that they must be intercepting him and Wang Anshi, so he immediately became alert. When he came, at the gate of the imperial city, these people did not dare to do anything to him. The situation in the palace was unknown now, so it happened that
You can come up with some words.
What Wang Yue didn't expect was that after the group came out, they drew their sabers and rushed towards Wang Yue.
Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. Whose subordinate was this? How could he be so stupid? He didn't say anything, and signaled to the accompanying guards to quickly deal with the group of people. He didn't dare to stay here longer, and left quickly with Wang Anshi.
.
After walking a little further, Wang Anshi sighed and said, "It seems that the situation in the palace is very bad."
Wang Yue nodded to Daniel. Daniel understood what Wang Yue meant and immediately disappeared with a few guards.
Wang Yue looked at the group of Zhao Zongshi's soldiers, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Let's go to the inn in front and wait. Let Daniel inquire about the news before we make a decision."
Wang Anshi also knew that this could only be done. He nodded, and together with Wang Yue, he took the remaining guards to Youjian Inn in the city. The two of them were waiting for news from Dahu while analyzing the current situation.
Not long after, a familiar face among the guards who followed Daniel came back and reported the situation of the rebellion to Wang Yue and the others.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi came to such a conclusion based on this information.
It seems that King Gun lost to King Yong in this battle. The official family not only appointed King Yong as the prince, but also appeased the clan members to obey the new emperor, which made King Gun feel that there was no hope. He felt that he would be tricked by King Yong in the future.
Rather than die, it is better to take a desperate risk, maybe there is still a way to survive.
Concubine Rong's family had a lot of troops, and because of Gu Tingye, the Rong family didn't seem to take sides. This made King Gun think that the Rong family might be interested in Zhao Zongshi, so he sent people to assassinate Zhao Zongshi while taking advantage of the Rong family's control.
When the soldiers and horses changed defense, the mutiny was launched.
Although King Gun had been plotting for a long time, he still didn't have many soldiers. In the large Tokyo city of Nuo, it was actually very inconspicuous. It was just that many people chose to be Bishangguan. After all, the royal affairs had nothing to do with them, so this was given to them.
a chance.
Not long after, Dahu and his party came to the inn escorting a palace maid.
The palace maid looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old. After entering the room, she saw Wang Yue and Wang Anshi wearing official robes, and she quickly asked, "I wonder who you two are?"
Wang Yue glanced at the cautious palace maid and said with a smile, "I am Wang Yue, the magistrate of Quanzhou County, and this is Wang Anshi, the magistrate of Fujian Road. We came to Beijing to report our duties on the emperor's order, but we couldn't open the door at the palace gate just now, so we
We have arranged for guards to investigate."
The maid raised her head and glanced at Wang Yue. She seemed to have seen Wang Yue. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that Wang Tanhua and Gu Shizi are very close. There is something here that I need you to pass to Gu Erlang."
