Returning to Longdu Su Mansion, Su Yu naturally did not dare to tell the truth to his clansmen and retaliate. He lied to his father Su Zhi and said that now he was a popular person in front of Du Shanbo, and Du Shanbo sent him back to inquire about important matters in the capital.
For a period of time, he had to hide his identity and tell the public that he had returned home.
It is not a good thing to return home at this time. For a fourth-grade military commander to return home and become a commoner, those who know and those who do not know think that his official career is hopeless. Fortunately, Su Zhi felt that these two sons were acting under orders and did not doubt it. He said with emotion:
"In the past, when my father-in-law was an official, he once supported Uncle Dushan's innocence in the court. Uncle Dushan owes my life to the Su family. This time he will use it in your favor. The next day, the two families will become family friends."
Su Yu's eldest brother Su Jing was quite disdainful of this and said: "I heard that you are the military commander of the epidemic camp. What is your position now? Why are there only twenty soldiers and crab generals to protect you?"
Su Yudao: "My younger brother is now joining the army under Uncle Dushan. How can I have the glory of my elder brother? The Su family still needs to be supported by my elder brother. The more successful the elder brother is in the court, the more stable my younger brother will be in the army."
When Su Jing saw that Su Yu didn't dare to make trouble against his elder brother, he curled his lips and turned around to leave.
The day after Su Yu returned to the capital, chaos suddenly broke out in Longdu. The princelings rebelled and attacked the palace and the prince's mansion. On the outside, gangs were engaged in vendettas, ruffians robbed homes, and even wealthy families took the opportunity to avenge themselves. Su Jing early in the morning
When he went to court, he was almost killed by the rebels at the gate of the palace. He fled in a hurry. On the street, he was actually robbed of all his belongings by robbers and killed his bodyguards. Su Jing lay in a pool of blood and pretended to be dead to escape the disaster and returned in embarrassment.
At home, I felt sick while lying in bed and couldn't get up.
In panic, Su Zhi hurriedly asked people to close the door of his house and summoned everyone in the clan to discuss countermeasures. No one from the Su family to Su Zhi's generation was an official. Instead, Su Zhi's two sons were civil and military. But now the civil servants have been dismissed.
He was so frightened that he became ill and could only hope that his son, a military attache, would save the family.
Su Yu was also frightened. Many uncles asked him, but he said bravely: "We must first find out why the chaos started, and then arm our servants." The people of the Su family quickly armed themselves with sticks and iron weapons, forming a group of more than thirty people.
Su Yu was worried that such a small number of people would not be enough, so he said to his father: "Master, there is chaos in the city today, so it is better not to do business in inns and brothels for the time being, and gather all the servants in Su Mansion. Business
You can do it again, but if our Su family is attacked by the enemy, everything will be lost."
Su Zhi thought it made sense, so he sent a message to close all the brothels and inns, transferred all the guards and servants back to the Su Mansion, and closed all stores everywhere.
Sure enough, that night, a large family next door encountered robbers. The whole family was killed, and the house was set on fire by the robbers. The next day, another robber took a fancy to the Su family, so he gathered people to invade. Su Yu
Once again, he bit the bullet and drew his sword to direct the battle. Although he was not good at civil and military skills, there were many thugs in the Su family brothel, and these people were brave enough. In addition, there were more than 300 Su family guards, and the bandits attacked three times.
, seven or eight people were killed, and they immediately ran away in fright. The Su family's defense battle was a great victory.
In the next few days, some took the opportunity to seek revenge, and some took advantage of the situation to rob. The gangsters stormed or attacked the Su Mansion several times, but were all defeated by the Su family. Su Yu went through several baptisms, and actually commanded in a decent manner, and the old friend of the Su Mansion
People learned that the Su family had a powerful armed force and came to seek refuge one after another. Su Yu took the opportunity to expand the bodyguards of the Su family and formed a battalion according to the military establishment, which not only surrounded the Su family but also protected the neighbors.
The princelings heard that the Su family had a strong army, so they specially recruited them, and told Su Zhi that once the prince ascended the throne, the Su family would become an important minister, and the Su family would be granted the title of marquis and prime minister.
Su Zhi was almost persuaded by the lobbyist, but others didn't know it, and Su Yu didn't know that the prince had gone crazy a long time ago. If you follow the princelings, you will die. Su Yu made an excuse to discuss sending the guests away, and then told the news about the prince's madness.
Father, Su Zhi was shocked, and said that it was lucky to have such a promising son. However, the prince's rebels were powerful in the city, and they did not dare to offend him, so they had no choice but to push back and block, almost causing the rebels to attack Su's mansion.
Just at this time, Du Shanbo led 3,000 cavalry to Longdu in time and controlled the situation in the capital, so the Su family survived.
During the chaos in Longdu, Su Yu's eldest brother was frightened and hid in his room every day drinking with his concubine. He was despised by the uncles in the Su family and could not be reused. On the contrary, Su Yu, the bastard,
He has the courage to take responsibility and is calm and composed when facing bandits and rebels, and is favored by his tribe.
A catastrophic disaster actually made Su Yu successful.
After Dushanbo came to Beijing, Su Yu immediately expressed his love to the elders of the clan. Now the person in charge of military power is in charge of the country. If the Su family wants to rise, it must rely on Dushanbo, and the Su family must also rely on Dushanbo. After discussion, the elders of the Su family
Afterwards, they unanimously decided to support Su Yu, so Su Yu lobbied people from the Su family and other noble families in the city. On behalf of more than fifty noble families, Su Yu approached Du Shanbo and expressed his willingness to support Du Shanbo and show his loyalty to Du Shanbo.
Dushan Boye led his army to quell the rebellion, but as a military general, he knew very well that military personnel who interfered with the imperial court would encounter difficulties in the future. Zhou Wenqi also helped to speak: "Although Su Boling is incompetent in both civil and military affairs, he is the uncle's daughter who bought his bones."
Yes, my uncle is not recruiting him, but recruiting the nobles in Longdu City."
Du Shanbo decided to give Su Yu a chance. Su Yu showed his loyalty and said: "Shuai Ye doesn't know the chaos in the city. Boling is willing to use his own body to help him get familiar with the inside story of Longdu."
Du Shanbo inquired and learned that Su Yu had tried his best to protect the Su family, and just now he said: "I have been useless for you before, but I didn't expect you to be reborn from the ashes. Men are not afraid of failure, but what they are afraid of is that they cannot afford to lose." So.
Ye Xiangdong accepted Su Yu as his staff and sent people around him.
At this time, Du Shanbo's ambitions grew. He controlled the Senate and the military, and contained Zhang Dang. Even the fifth prince had to plead to be Du Shanbo's grandson-in-law before he could serve as the prince. Zhang Dang gradually recovered, and Zhang Dang gradually recovered.
He fought for power everywhere, and some people even privately expressed the hope that Dushanbo would return to power as a civilian.
Du Shanbo was worried about where to start, so he encountered the seventh prince's revenge on the Gu family, so he decided to beat Zhang Kuan and the fifth prince, and instruct Su Yu to impeach the crown prince. Su Yu was frightened and impeached the crown prince himself, because he felt that he was not worthy of his life.
How long?
Zhou Wenqiyou said that of course Du Shanbo did not really want to impeach the crown prince, but wanted to beat the crown prince and Zhang Dang to let them understand that although the fifth prince was the crown prince, he was controlled by the Senate and Du Shanbo. Zhang
The party can achieve what it does today because of Ye Xiangdong.
Zhou Wenqi said again: "If you don't impeach, I'm afraid how many people will rush to do it, and by then, you will have no chance to get ahead. Brother Boling, you and I are from the Sixth Regiment, how can I
To harm you, for such a good thing, I thought of you first. Think about that ghost general Zhang Xiaowu, if he were here, would he have the courage to do this? "
Su Yu's original hesitation was wiped out, and he resolutely impeached the prince in the Supervisory Council in public.
