Chapter 2663 The mutiny and coup d'état of the Kui character scroll, chaos
Now that You Shigong has expressed his position, the next arrangement will be much simpler.
The troops of Santunying immediately marched westward and stationed in Xiadian. Originally, Feng Ziying wanted them to be stationed in Tongzhou directly, but the combination with the westward army in Denglai Town was too powerful, which could easily cause unnecessary associations. Before some things, Feng Ziying felt a little low-key for the time being.
In addition, several garrisons stationed in Zunhua and Pinggu Yingzhou Zhongtunwei added up to more than 20,000 people, led by You Shiwei and immediately Zheng Cunba.
This action was obvious, but considering that the garrison led by You Shiwei was already near Pinggu, this "training" barely made sense.
Feng Ziying actually doesn’t want to get to the point where the swords meet, but he can’t think about how to solve it when he finally gets to this point.
The alliance between Emperor Wantong and Li Sancai, if some top scholars such as Tang Binyin and his like join in, it is indeed possible to influence the public opinion and the common people of the scholars. People who are fighting in groups, especially among ordinary people, will take it for granted that the emperor is Zhengshuo. Without the emperor, it seems that the country will not be a country.
Feng Ziyi arrived the day after the order was given.
Feng Ziyi rode out of Beijing that day, and arrived at Santunying overnight.
For more than three hundred miles, Feng Ziyi was almost non-stop, changing a horse at the post station halfway, and finally arrived.
Fortunately, I met Feng Ziying as soon as I arrived and was preparing to leave for Shunyi.
The appearance of Feng Ziyi made Feng Ziying immediately have a premonition that the situation was not good.
For Feng Ziyi to disregard her duties and go to Santun Camp to warn her, one can imagine how dangerous the situation has become.
"You mean that both Lu Song and Zhang Jin have different ideas?" Feng Ziying gasped.
He had a premonition that something happened to Lu Song, but he didn't expect Zhang Jin to turn against him.
You must know that before he left Liaodong and returned to Jingshi City, he sent a letter to remind everyone in advance.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jin, as the commander of the banner guard, had changed his mind at this time. Fortunately, he did not mention in his letter that he would return to Beijing, but just reminded them to pay attention to the changes in the situation in Beijing and China.
"Nephew, I'm not sure, but Master Lu and Master Zhang have been in private contact with each other these past few months, and it's quite frequent." Feng Ziyi said cautiously, while observing Feng Ziying's face.
He is not sure, after all, there is no real evidence. Zhang Jin is considered Lu Song's confidant in Long Jinwei, and the relationship has always been close. Although Zhang Jin has now served as the commander of the Banner Guard, it is possible that his private friendship has always been there. More doesn't seem to necessarily be a problem.
But Feng Ziying didn't believe it.
Once Lu Song and Zhang Jin collude, the situation will be quite dangerous.
Lieutenant Long Jin mastered the news from the court, the central government, and Beijing, and the Banner Guard was the leader of the first guard and the second battalion guarding the palace ban. That is to say, considering Zhang Jin's reliability, Xu Chao was transferred to control the Four Guards Battalion. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jin rebelled in the end.
Feng Ziying always thought that the Second Guard Battalion of the Shang Sanqin Army was the one she could trust the most, but she didn't expect that Lu Song's change of heart would directly take Zhang Jin away.
If you think about it, Zhang Jin has followed Lu Song in the Long Jinwei for decades, and has been promoted all the way, and his main deployment in the Banner Guard is also brought over from the Long Jinwei. The interests and feelings of this large group of people are Intertwined together, there is no reason to follow the self who has only made friends for a few years.
What's more, I have been away from Liaodong for a few years, and I have become a little estranged from the center. There is no way this is the impact of distance.
Feng Ziying believed that if she had stayed in Beijing for the past two years, this kind of thing might not have happened, at least she could have discovered the anomaly earlier.
"There is no problem with Xu Chao and He Zhisheng, right?" Feng Ziying still trusted these two people.
He Zhisheng was a life-and-death friendship forged during the suppression of the chaos in Ganzhou. Although He Zhisheng was also born in Wu Xun, he was a side branch.
Needless to say, Xu Chao, General of the Northwest, is the direct descendant of Dad.
"Xu Chao can't tell, Mr. He should be fine." Feng Ziyi smiled wryly, "However, with such things, people's hearts are so deep that my nephew can't trust anyone anymore, so I didn't even say anything to Mr. He, and went straight to the mansion. Come on, with the permission of the boss, I came here."
Feng Ziying nodded.
The Banner Guards controlled the palace ban, which meant that it was impossible for the cabinet to completely win legally.
With Emperor Wantong having a palace ban, it is naturally impossible to authorize Gu Bingqian to form a cabinet, and most likely to directly authorize Li Sancai to form a cabinet, but without the approval of Qi Yongtai as the current chief assistant, it is difficult for the civil servants to get this imperial approval. recognition.
But this kind of disapproval may only be temporary, and the stalemate will last for a few days. If Emperor Wantong and Li Sancai, Tang Binyin and others go to work separately, it is hard to say whether anyone will change their minds.
The Jiangnan scholars have a bad impression of Gu Bingqian. Even Huang Ruliang doesn’t approve of Gu Bingqian. Once some of the Jiangnan scholars change their attitudes, it will be even more difficult for the Huguang scholars. Can Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke control all the Huguang scholars? People like Xiong Tingbi, Yang He, Yang Lian, and Bi Ziyan.
What is more important is the movement of the Beijing-China army.
Once the Fifth Army Battalion controls the entire Capital City, or the Fifth Army Battalion controls the security of the entire Capital City with the support of the Xuanfu Army, then the general situation is over. I am afraid that "diehard elements" like Qi Yongtai, Gu Bingqian, and Qiao Yingjia who cannot compromise may He will be put under house arrest by Captain Long, unable to make a sound at all. Li Sancai directly accepts the decree to form a cabinet, even if it is not approved by the existing chief ministers and ministers. Under the circumstances, how long can this persistence last?
Feng Ziying has never believed in the integrity of civil servants in this era. How many people can stand up to the time when swords and axes are at stake or interests are handed over?
I have to go back to the capital city immediately. Feng Ziying also believes that the cabinet recalled her handwritten letter, but it hasn't reached her yet.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you enter the capital city, there are naturally a hundred ways to get this official document to return to the capital in name.
Jizhen Army and Denglai Army must be used. Fortunately, Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu are on the line of Shunyi, and they can be ordered to go out immediately, or go directly to Beijing.
It's a pity that You Shigong was a step too late, otherwise he would directly advance westward and directly force the Xuanfu army to be unable to approach the capital city. But now it seems that Liu Chen should have taken a step ahead, and it was too late.
"Ziyi, I'm afraid you can't rest anymore, you have to rush back to Beijing immediately, bring my words to He Zhisheng and Xu Chao, and order them to lead the Four Guards Battalion and the Warrior Battalion to block the banner guards, although the banner guards control The palace ban has been lifted, but your two battalions are going to block them, including the palace city,..."
Feng Ziying sensed Feng Ziyi's shock and worry, and waved her hands, "I will also go to Beijing soon, but I need to make arrangements on the Jizhen Army side, and I am worried that the Beijing camp will be in chaos, and Ma Chengxun and Ma Jinbaotu Wenxiu will Fight now,..."
Feng Ziyi felt her lips were dry, swallowed a mouthful of spit and said, "Uncle, don't you have any other choice?"
"Hehe, at this time, what do you think? Let's do it." Feng Ziying patted the other party confidently: "Once the success is complete, there is no need to care about small details when doing big things. Some things are unavoidable."
Not to mention that Feng Ziying rushed to the capital again day and night, Feng Ziying also realized the seriousness of the situation.
He must rush back to the capital city as soon as possible. In his opinion, civil servants like Qi Shi and the others are more modest in doing this kind of thing. Perhaps this is a common problem of civil servants. In comparison, I am afraid that Emperor Wantong and others Lu Song and the others will not be so rigid.
Fortunately, arrangements have been made here. He only needs to urge You Shigong to let You Shiwei quickly integrate several troops and march towards Pinggu Shunyi as soon as possible.
The current situation in the city is unclear, but according to his own judgment, if Emperor Wantong feels that relying on the Fifth Army Battalion and the Banner Guards can control the situation in the city, then it is best to let the Xuanfu Army sit outside the city to "guard" him. The impact of frontier troops entering Beijing on the entire capital city and even the Great Zhou Dynasty is huge. Since the founding of the country, there has never been a precedent for frontier troops entering the capital city. It means civil strife, and may even be a harbinger of the collapse of a dynasty. It is a very bad omen, and it also has extremely bad meaning and influence.
Feng Ziying doesn't have so many taboos, as long as the situation is not good, he will immediately let the Denglai army and the Jizhen army enter the city, and the winner will be defeated. As for who will say what later, it will be something later, and they will all become prisoners. , and these are meaningless.
He even regretted it a little. He knew that Liu Baichuan from Jiangbei Town should also enter Beijing by boat from Xuzhou.
Just as Feng Ziying rode his horse to the capital city, the situation in the capital city was indeed deteriorating sharply in an irreconcilable direction as he expected.
When Emperor Wantong's servants delivered the imperial decree to Wenyuan Pavilion, the shocked cabinet princes and important ministers all rejected it without any suspense, and instead demanded that the emperor must use the imperial seal according to the imperial approval drafted by the cabinet. Of course this is meaningless.
The standard-bearer guards who came next blocked the entire Wenyuan Pavilion, and the Four Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion, who had reacted at this time, also rushed towards Wenyuan Pavilion. There was a fierce battle between Wenyuan Pavilion and Qibu Gongyu.
The entire capital city suddenly became chaotic. This is not the era of cold weapons, but the era of firearms. The sky is full of gunpowder smoke and crackling gunshots, so that the people of the capital city can understand what happened without guessing. There is a mutiny. what else?
