There are one hill and eight buildings in the Northern Prefecture of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Chapter 4344: The demon thief came to the city for another reason
Chapter 4344: The demon thief came to the city for another reason
Wang Hua frowned slightly: "This is the Imperial Ancestral Temple, where the tablets of the ancestors of the Jin Dynasty are enshrined. The tablets of loyal ministers and generals of the Jin Dynasty since the founding of the Jin Dynasty are also here to accompany the Imperial Ancestral Temple, such as Xie An, Xie Xianggong
. It seems that all the children of our aristocratic families are asked to come here to announce something important, in other words, to do something important in front of our ancestors."
Wang Hong's expression changed slightly: "Could it be that the truth about Sima Xiuxi was announced here? If it was really Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi who did it, would they be here..."
When he said this, he stopped talking. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Xie Hun in the distance, then at Xi Sengshi, and frowned.
Zhang Shao shook his head: "No, no, if we really want to touch them, it should be during the execution at Caishikou just now, and let the so-called liars who were killed speak loudly about the instructions behind them.
Who is the person? Now that the person has been killed, there is no proof. Even if any confession is produced at this time, it is not convincing enough. After all, if you want to commit such a big case, you must have both human and material evidence, including how they connected and how they planned.
, how this child was selected must be explained clearly."
Wang Hua nodded: "Yes, and if you want to touch Xie Hun, he is a descendant of the Xie family. He is even the deputy head of the family now. Many people think that he will succeed Mrs. Xie and become the future head of the family.
, if we really want to deal with him, we will definitely get Mrs. Xie’s consent, and Mrs. Xie must personally come forward when he is convicted.”
At this point, Wang Hua paused: "Just like during the court meeting a few days ago, Xie Hun wanted to give up Jiankang and flee to Wu with the emperor, while Meng Chang also wanted to escape, but just with the emperor
Flee to Jiangbei to meet up with Liu Yu. At the critical moment, it was Mrs.
They have a forged clan that they want to support, so Mrs. Xie must be present. In addition to national laws, she must also follow the family rules of the Xie family and expel Xie Hun as a nephew of the Xie family first, so as not to bring shame to the Xie family and be implicated.
."
Wang Hong breathed a long sigh of relief: "Yes, this is indeed the principle and bottom line of our family's high-level affairs. At the last moment, the family cannot be harmed. Mrs. Xie did not come today, which means that it is impossible to truly deal with Xie Hun.
Brother Ziling’s analysis is very accurate.”
Zhang Shao nodded: "Since we are not dealing with people here, what we have to do in front of the Ancestral Temple is probably the swearing-in ceremony. The last time we prayed to the Ancestral Temple, we were here to inform the princes of the Murong clan.
From Murong Chao's head to the heads of Murong Zhen and other Nanyan clans, more than 3,000 heads are placed here to comfort our ancestors of the Jin Dynasty who rebelled against China and lived in the Central Plains.
Since our homeland, this is the first time we have counterattacked and destroyed a Huru country, but it’s a pity that I wasn’t there at the time and didn’t know about this grand occasion.”
Wang Hong laughed: "I saw it, dear, it was a huge crowd of people. All the young and old men from Quan Jiankang came. There were more than 3,000 heads. They were piled up like a hill at the entrance of the Ancestral Temple.
, some older girls were so frightened that they fainted."
Zhang Shao gritted his teeth: "But when these barbarians came to massacre our Jin people and impaled thousands of heads on wooden stakes and hung them on the city walls, they thought it was a great achievement and took great pleasure in it.
.I am also a literati, but when I was in Guanggu, when I saw the corpses of those Yan soldiers who had been killed strewn across the field and the blood flowed into rivers, I did not feel fear, but I was extremely happy."
Wang Hua nodded: "Yes, later the heads were thrown into the cauldron and burned, and the ashes were scattered into the river, allowing the running water to wash away the filth. I have been traveling to the south of the Jin Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, and this is still the first time I have traveled to the south of the Jin Dynasty.
Being so proud and revengeful for once made me no longer have any doubts or confusion about Marshal Liu's Northern Expedition."
Wang Hong said with a smile: "Even if such a great victory in the Northern Expedition caused problems in the country and made demons and thieves run rampant, do you think there is no problem?"
Wang Hua shook his head: "Brother Xiu Yuan, I don't agree with your view. Although the demons and thieves caused chaos by taking advantage of Marshal Liu's Northern Expedition and the elite soldiers from Yangzhou of the Jin Dynasty were outside, the more important factors are probably collusion between internal and external parties.
Evil organizations like the Tiandao League are supporting them behind their backs, and hidden insiders like Liu Tingyun are helping them. If even He Wuji and Liu Yi's army are defeated by them, even if Marshal Liu guards the country, he may not be able to do so.
The result is better than the current one. I don’t agree with attributing the current situation to the Northern Expedition.”
Zhang Shao smiled and said: "But if Marshal Liu was here, maybe the demon thief wouldn't take action at all!"
Wang Hua sighed: "I think this result will be even worse. Now we know that the other demon king of the Northern Tiandao Alliance is actually Murong Chui who came back from the dead, or faked his death. The entire Nanyan army
Horses are all under his command. It is an army of more than 400,000, and there are tens of thousands of armored cavalry, as well as various terrifying war machines and immortal monsters. Their strength is much stronger than that of the Tianshi Dao demon thieves who caused chaos.
Already."
"If Marshal Liu does not attack Nan Yan and destroys this force of the Tiandao Alliance, the more likely result is that when the demon thieves raise their troops, the barbarians of Nan Yan will also take the opportunity to attack southward. Marshal Liu's troops will then
Forced to go north to meet the Southern Yan army, they have iron cavalry and mobility to choose from. They don't even have to fight us in a certain place, but attack our weak points. Imagine if the demon thieves attack Jiankang now, and Marshal Liu's soldiers
If Ma Zheng is in a stalemate with Nan Yan soldiers and horses in Jiangbei or Yuzhou, then the situation we face will be even worse than now."
Wang Hong and Zhang Shao looked at each other, with a strange look flashing in their eyes: "Zi Ling, your views are really different. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and even Meng Chang blamed the rebellion of demon thieves on Marshal Liu's Northern Expedition.
, even Meng Pushe committed suicide by taking poison and took responsibility for it, but you have such an opinion. It's really good. Maozong, you'd better recommend Ziling to Marshal Liu now. This is a rare talent. This time to defend the city,
It can be of great use."
Wang Hua waved his hand: "I haven't made any achievements yet. With Marshal Liu's military achievements and the rules of using titles as officials, I am not qualified to meet Marshal Liu directly. I think..."
Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd. A group of generals, including Liu Yu, who was wearing general robes and armor, strode towards the gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple with their heads held high. The entire scene fell into silence.
