Chapter 2516 Gui Zijuan is boiling and turning against the sky, using iron-blooded methods (Second update, please vote!)
"We don't know the other situation yet. We only know that the troops from the Fifth Military Camp came out and directly captured Fuchengmen. However, the Shenshu Camp on the other side of Fuchengmen didn't seem to react at once, and some of them went to Xizhimen, and there were Some of them retreated to Xi’an Gate.”
Xi'anmen, Dong'anmen and Bei'anmen plus Dazhoumen are also controlled by the Shangsanqinjun and are garrisoned by the Fourth Guards Battalion.
The capital city can be divided into an inner city and an outer city. The outer city is actually an expansion to the south of the original capital city, with the addition of Yibeifang, Baizhifang, Yinanfang, Zhengxifang, Zhengnanfang and Zhengdong. The eight areas of Chongbeifang, Chongnanfang and Chongnanfang are similar in area to the inner city, but the population may be only one-tenth of the inner city, similar to an outer city.
Going inward from the inner city is the Imperial City, and further inward from the Imperial City is the Palace City, also known as the Forbidden City.
The gates of the Imperial City are Xi'an Gate, Dong'an Gate and Bei'an Gate plus Dazhou Gate (Daming Gate) in the south direction and two small gates - Chang'an Right Gate and Chang'an Left Gate.
Feng Ziying felt faintly cold in her heart.
The Fourth Guards Battalion is the troops of Du Keli and Gao Wenxiu. It is also an army without real control. Miao Zhuang and Liao Junxiong were dismissed, but Du Keli was retained. Originally, they were allowed to transition to the Fourth Guards Battalion first. But there has been no time to adjust, and this has become a huge hidden danger.
At this time, Feng Ziying was no longer worried about the White Lotus Sect's rebellion. He was more worried that if Prince Yi Zhong and Qiu Shiben had colluded long ago and took advantage of the White Lotus Sect's uprising to seize the military power in Beijing, then the situation would suddenly be reversed. , the advantage of the civil servants in the North Korean and Chinese cabinets will be reversed.
He glanced at Han Xu, who seemed to have not yet fully reacted.
“How did that happen?” Feng Ziying took a deep breath and asked.
"We are not too sure. It was the people from Shuntian Prefecture who seized a group of White Lotus cultists. During their arrest, some people fled into the Fifth Army Camp. The officials from Shuntian Prefecture went to negotiate, but the other party later ignored them. , but after two hours of delay, it became like this..."
Two hours? This idiot Jia Yucun didn't report it. How could things involving the military be so simple?
And Zhao Qianshan, as the commander of the Fourth Guards Battalion, didn't he find that Du Keli and Gao Wenxiu were suspicious?
At this time, Feng Ziying no longer even thought about scolding Jia Yucun and Zhao Qianshan. The most important thing now is to solve the current trouble.
Feng Ziying stood up, waved her hand to stop those who wanted to say more, and felt reassured.
Now it is no longer the issue of considering the White Lotus Rebellion. He has a feeling that the White Lotus Rebellion may be a trigger, or it may be used by others.
If the White Lotus Sect is really rebelling, Feng Ziying is not worried even if they can gather a group of people in the Fifth Army Camp, because Qiu Shiben will definitely not participate, and it is impossible for all of his Vajras to join the White Lotus Sect. Even if one or two people join, it will at most cause a disturbance, and the main force of the Fifth Military Camp will not be able to cause any disturbance.
But if Qiu Shiben got the instructions from Emperor Wan Tong, or even some **** like secret edicts or blood edicts, and then colluded with Du Keli and Gao Wenxiu from the Fourth Guard Camp, it’s hard to say whether this is true or not. .
The only thing that is fortunate now is that the Banner Guards and the Warrior Battalion are stationed in the palace. These two forces are relatively reliable. Zhang Jin controls the Banner Guards to control the Meridian Gate and Xuanwu Gate, while He Zhisheng's Warrior Battalion controls the Donghua Gate. and Xihuamen.
"Master Lu, I'm afraid you already understand the danger of the situation, right?" Feng Ziying took a deep breath and looked at the other party with sharp eyes.
Lu Song's face suddenly turned pale, "Master Feng, what do you mean..."
"That's right, I'm afraid that something will happen in the palace. I'm not sure about Du Keli and Gao Wenxiu. Zhao Qianshan hasn't given me any news yet. I'm worried that something will happen to Zhao Qianshan." Feng Ziying walked around twice with her hands behind her back, " You go to the Meridian Gate immediately, Zhang Jin is still reliable, as long as the Meridian Gate and Xuanwu Gate are guarded, I will go to the Xihua Gate to find He Zhisheng, as long as the palace city is stabilized and the people in the palace cannot get out, then we will win most of the battle."
Han Xu finally reacted at this time, his face suddenly turned pale, and even his beard trembled: "Ziying, you mean the emperor..."
“Huh, whether he can still be the emperor after this depends on the thoughts of the cabinet ministers.” Feng Ziying said sullenly and rudely: “Using the White Lotus Sect to play this game is going to shake up the country.”
"It's not like that, it's not like that, is it?" Han Xu still couldn't believe it at this time, "Is it a misunderstanding? It's just the White Lotus Sect..."
"So simple?" Feng Ziying waved her hand, "Mr. Yu, you think of people's minds too simply. Prime Minister Ye, Prime Minister Fang and Prime Minister Qi still underestimate people. They should wake up after today."
It can be said that this night was the most restless night in Feng Mansion. Not long after Feng Ziying went out, several groups of people rushed to the door of Feng Mansion and knocked on the door asking to see Feng Ziying.
Shen Xue Lin and the other three were all alarmed.
The people who came were all from the Sanqinjun and Jingying camps.
People sent by Tu Wenxiu, people sent by Zhao Qianshan, people sent by Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen, and people sent by He Zhisheng.
Fortunately, several parties knew the identities of Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing, so they did not hide them and immediately informed them of the situation.
Shen Yixiu, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu all appeared in the hall dressed in formal attire.
It was also the first time for Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing to see Dong Weng's three wives appear so solemnly late at night, but he also knew the danger and subtlety of the situation.
"Mr. Wang, what exactly happened? My husband said he was going to the Ministry of Punishment when he left, but why are all the people from the Beijing Camp and the Shangsanqin Army coming to report?" Shen Yixiu did his duty.
Xue Baochai has a big belly and has some physical inconveniences. Lin Daiyu doesn't know much about court affairs, and she is the only one to take on this responsibility. But she is also pregnant, and she shouldn't have to stay up late and get up like this.
"Going back to the three ladies, the situation is still a bit chaotic right now. We don't know much about the circumstances of your visit to the Punishment Department, but it is probably related to tonight's situation..." Wang Wenyan pondered for a moment, "From the initial point of view, it should be the Punishment Department, Long The Imperial Guards and the Shuntian Mansion are investigating the White Lotus Sect. Maybe the White Lotus Sect is involved in the soldiers of the Beijing Camp, but now it seems that it is not that simple. We suspect that maybe the Fifth Army Camp took the opportunity to cause chaos..."
"Making trouble?" Shen Yixiu frowned, "Why did the Fifth Army Camp take the opportunity to make trouble? Why?"
Wang Wenyan hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice: "Maybe it has something to do with the palace."
Shen Yixiu understood immediately and glanced at Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu subconsciously. Seeing that they were still a little confused, he nodded and said, "I understand. How are you going to deal with it now?"
“We have already sent people to the Ministry of Punishment, but I estimate that your Excellency has received the news now, and may not still be in the Ministry of Punishment, so we also sent people to the four gates of the palace to inform you.”
Shen Yixiu nodded.
Wang Wenyan can still see the situation clearly. As long as the palace city is controlled so that outsiders can't get in and people inside can't get out, then the fifth military camp will lose its righteousness if it wants to cause chaos. No matter what he says or does, without this righteousness, those people will lose their righteousness. Those who are hesitant will not dare to take the road easily.
“What should we do in the house?” Shen Yixiu asked again.
"There is no need to do anything, but we have to be just in case. This round of adjustments to the Shangsanqin Army and the Beijing Camp are all handled by adults, so it is inevitable that some people will focus on the mansion, so from now on, we will strengthen the alert in the mansion. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter or leave until the situation in the city becomes clear..."
Wang Wenyan glanced at Wu Yaoqing and said, "Yaoqing, you need to supervise the guards in the house. Guibao has followed the master, so you have to worry more about this."
Wu Yaoqing nodded in agreement.
Feng Ziying was indeed no longer in the Ministry of Punishment. He rushed to Xihua Gate as quickly as possible.
At Xihua Gate, He Zhisheng had already been stationed at the gate in full military uniform.
Stepping up to the city gate, Feng Ziying looked indifferently at the bottom of the city a hundred steps away. People from the warrior camp stopped a group of chamberlains in palace attire aside, and the two sides were negotiating.
“How is the situation?” Feng Ziying asked immediately.
He saw this group of people arguing with the people from the Warrior Camp inside the Xihua Gate from a distance, and he felt that the situation was probably developing towards the worst scenario, which meant that it was unfortunately true.
He Zhisheng also had an ugly expression on his face, "It was Manager Su who was with the emperor, and he asked to lead a group of people out of the palace."
Feng Ziying’s face turned cold, “What’s the reason?”
"I just said that the father-in-law is not in good health and the queen wants to leave the palace for a visit..." He Zhisheng had already walked aside: "I saw that the other party was very eager and tough, so I said I would go to the father-in-law's house to ask and report to the Lord first. I didn’t expect the adults to come so quickly.”
"Oh, you sent someone to my palace?" Feng Ziying nodded, "I understand, no one is allowed to leave the palace."
"But Manager Su..." He Zhisheng hesitated, "And the emperor also sent a message, asking the humble minister to let them out of the palace..."
"Hmph, if the emperor's decree is not countersigned by the cabinet, it is against the rules. If the emperor accepts the decree, others have the right to refuse." Feng Ziying glanced at He Zhisheng, "You don't even understand this rule?"
"Of course I understand the humble position, but Manager Na Su deliberately shouted at others, and the soldiers didn't understand the rules here." He Zhisheng smiled bitterly.
"They are all soldiers from the northwest. Don't you even have the skills to say hello?" Feng Ziying's face suddenly turned cold. "The one named Su is a White Lotus cultist. He sneaked into the palace and spread alarmist rumors and demagogues. He kidnapped the emperor and deliberately created Chaos, let people shoot this guy immediately, and order others to surrender on the spot immediately, otherwise they will be killed without mercy!"
He Zhisheng was startled and glanced at Feng Ziying in disbelief. But when he saw the cold and indifferent look in Feng Ziying's eyes, he immediately understood and nodded heavily, "The humble post will make arrangements immediately."
