What is the crime of slandering and treason
Chapter 1234 What is the crime of slandering and treason
In the early morning, the world was dark.The village in the distance is quiet.Occasionally, the wind blows and the crops in the field rustle.
Da da da!
The sound of horseshoes was crisp and shattered the tranquility.
Dogs bark from a distant village.
More than a hundred riders came galloping.
On the side of the road, dozens of sergeants stood up, rubbed their eyes and began to line up.
Hundreds of riders arrived, and the leading general shouted, "Did someone pass by last night?"
The leading team officer stepped forward, restrained his yawn and said, "Nothing."
The general said coldly: "Look at you and wait. Lax the military order and come."
The two riders stepped forward, and the team was kneeling to plead guilty.
Going to be whipped!
The crowd sighed.
A moment of silence for the team.
"cut!"
The general shouted loudly.
The team is looking up, startled.
This is not enough!
The light of the knife flashed, and the head fell to the ground.
"Take the head and spread the word everywhere. Anyone who slacks off the military order will be killed without mercy!"
"Leader!"
The general turned his head, his eyes seemed to be filled with flames.The morning sun rose from the sky and shone on the flames, making people think of...
……
"It's ambition!"
He Zun said: "Those civil servants and generals are willing to stand with the Duke not because they are dissatisfied with Chang'an, but because of their ambition."
In the lobby, Shi Zhongtang was drinking.
He rarely drank alcohol in the past, but since he decided to join the army, he has never stopped drinking.
The Tang Dynasty was established for hundreds of years, and it is not to say that there were no rebels.Every few years, there will be people rebelling in the local area, but most of them are ignorant and foolish people. If dozens of people gather together, they dare to call themselves emperors.Make your wife a queen, a few cubs a king, those old peasants a prime minister, a general...
This kind of rebellion didn't need to alert the county, and the village leader led people to suppress it.
Therefore, there has never been a real rebellion since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
Shi Zhongtang had been planning for many years, but once he decided to raise an army, he was still a little apprehensive, worried that the behemoth would not be shaken.
He Zun saw what he was thinking, so he specially came to drink with him today.
"Southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang were the first places of exile. Hundreds of years ago, southern Xinjiang was plagued by miasma. It was a wild land in the mouth of the Central Plains. No one wanted to come. So much so that the officials in Guanzhong still regard southern Xinjiang as a remote place. It is a shame to be an official in Southern Xinjiang. Nowadays, most of the officials and generals in Southern Xinjiang are people who have no ambitions. People! If they fail to achieve ambitions, he will resent him, just like a woman who cannot be favored by her husband!"
He Zun deliberately said foul language, raised his glass and took a sip of the wine, and said, "These people are thinking, how can those people enjoy the glory and wealth in Chang'an, and get promoted faster than them? What people are most afraid of is comparison. There is no end. Even if you become an emperor, you still want to compete with God."
Shi Zhong and Tang silently drank.
"So they thought about whether they could counterattack, whether they could find a place to stand out. The Duke undressed them..."
"These touching people's hearts are only temporary." Shi Zhongtang said, a little hoarse.
"Yes!" Seeing him speak, He Zun felt relieved, "The roots are in Chang'an."
Shi Zhongtang cut a piece of mutton with a knife, chewed it slowly in his mouth, and then took a glass of wine, "The emperor is becoming more and more obsessed with manipulating the world in the pear garden."
"He feels that he can control the world, but he doesn't know that the world is gradually collapsing. Nowadays, there are more and more refugees from various places, and the people complain about him, but he thinks that his family is still the wise king in the mouth of the people. Those courtiers have the audacity to say anything in order to please him. A prosperous age. Just like that, he became more and more proud. But this world is still on the pile of firewood, and there is only one spark missing."
He Zun ate a piece of mutton, which was particularly fishy, and he couldn't help frowning, "Everyone with a heart in the world can see the weakness and chaos of the Tang Dynasty. Some even said that this was the scene before the end of the Chen Dynasty. To be honest, if it wasn't for Yang Xuan in the northern Xinjiang to suppress it Beiliao, the current Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that the cavalry of Beiliao has already approached Guanzhong."
"Yang Xuan!" There was fear in Shi Zhongtang's eyes, "That man is so silent and powerful. To be honest, if it wasn't for the growing power in the northern border, I would have waited a few more years."
But seeing that Beiliao was about to be destroyed, if he didn't do anything, when Beijiang and Beiliao became one, Yang Xuan would definitely take the lead.
"Our officials and generals in southern Xinjiang have all seen this general trend. Chang'an is said to be Zhengshuo, but it is no longer possible. Guanzhong is the land of dragon prosperity in the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. Nowadays, whether it is southern Xinjiang or northern Xinjiang Borderlands can defeat Guanzhong. The world, it’s time to shake things up.”
He Zun said: "The civil servants and military generals have all seen this, and they also want to get a piece of the pie. The world is a pot of soup, and there are three families who are qualified to cook."
Shi Zhongtang picked up the wine glass, "Chang'an, I, Yang Xuan!"
"The Duke is wise." He Zun said: "The whole southern border is now twisted into one rope. Great timing, great man, shouldn't we do a great job?"
The knuckles of Shi Zhongtang's hand holding the wine glass turned white.
"The Chang'an guards are going north, and Chang'an is empty. This is the best opportunity." He Zun saw Shi Zhongtang's face flushed slightly, and he knew that his heart was lifted, and he was secretly happy, "The Chang'an guards are not the opponents of the Northern Army. But it can also be restrained. At the moment, what matters is Guanzhong and Chang'an. Whoever can seize Guanzhong and Chang'an first will have the upper hand. Guanzhong, the land of dragon prosperity, the land of prosperity! Duke!"
"First strike is stronger!"
Shi Zhongtang raised his head and drank the wine, smashed the wine glass with his hands, raised his eyes, his eyes sparkled, "Start building momentum."
He Zun stood up, "Take orders."
"Let officials and generals from all over come to Qinghe to discuss matters."
"Leader!"
He Zun saluted, "The governor of Huangzhou, Jin Yong, has always been dissatisfied with the Duke, so he should be punished!"
Shi Zhongtang said: "That old dog has refused to come to Qinghe for the past two years, so it shows that he is quite afraid of me. If there is an attack, Huangzhou also has an army, so it will inevitably take time."
Once something happens, it must be as fast as lightning.
He Zun said, "The envoy from Chang'an is here again."
"Messenger?" Shi Zhongtang looked at him.
He Zun smiled and said: "Yes! The Chang'an envoy came again to urge the Duke to send troops, which shows that His Majesty is impatient. This time the envoy was also ordered to summon the governors of various places. Your Majesty, I have something to say!"
"Lure Jin Yong to Qinghe." Shi Zhongtang nodded, "Send someone there right away!"
He Zun said with a smile: "After Huangzhou, there will be no obstacles. The army will go out of the southern border and attack Guanzhong all the way."
"You, not bad!" Shi Zhongtang got up and patted He Zun's shoulder, "I always thought that Zhang Chumao was stupid because he didn't listen to the words of a great talent like you, but went to listen to that countryman from Chang'an." Zhang's idea."
He Zun bowed his head, "It's all valued by the Duke."
The head of the state is far away from southern Xinjiang, how can he know the specific situation in southern Xinjiang?
But Zhang Chumao obeyed, and ended up playing himself to death.
Several rode out of Qinghe and went straight to Huangzhou.
……
Yang Lue was looking for an opportunity to leave, but Jin Yong fought like chicken blood, and kept him by his side all day, either to discuss the situation or to drill the Huangzhou Army.
On the school field, the Huangzhou Army is practicing.
Jin Yong, Yang Lue and others stood on the stage and watched.
A small official ran up, "Emissary, Qinghe has an envoy."
The envoy went up to the high platform, "The envoy has come from Chang'an, urging the Duke of the state to send troops, ordering the governors of various places to go to Qinghe to discuss matters, and there is His Majesty's will to explain."
The emperor's emissary?
Yang Lue's heart moved slightly, thinking that the emperor's envoys came one after another, did they find something wrong with Shi Zhongtang?Or is it that the situation in northern Xinjiang has changed dramatically, making him anxious.
Can't let Jin Yong go!
Jin Yong cupped his hands, "The old man will go later."
The messenger said: "The sooner the better, don't make the messenger wait too long."
"The old man knows." Jin Yong nodded, but the envoy didn't leave, but stayed.
After Jin Yong explained, he went back to pack his things and prepared to go to Qinghe.
He Cong and Yang Lue followed behind, whispering: "Let's go back!"
Yang slightly frowned, "The old man wants to find out the purpose of the messenger."
He Cong said, "It's probably the one who urged the troops to be dispatched, right?"
"Why are you so eager?" Yang was slightly puzzled by this, "The former envoy just left, but the latter came again."
This envoy is too worthless, right?
He Cong said: "Maybe it's imminent."
"No." Yang slightly shook his head, "The old man has been thinking about him all these years, carefully recalling his words and deeds in the past, chewing them up one by one, and thinking about them carefully. If he is impatient, then the second batch of envoys must be Not low. You go to test it out and ask who the messenger is."
He Cong walked up to the messenger, said a few words with a smile, and then came back.
"Say it's a servant."
Yang slightly narrowed his eyes, "A servant? It stands to reason that he should send a confidant."
"Isn't the maid a confidant?" He Cong asked.
Yang Lue shook his head, "The servants are confidantes, but except for the few who are counted, the others are useless. For such things, the warriors should come."
"Who cares who came here?" He Cong wanted to go back, "It makes sense for us to send the news to Northern Xinjiang as soon as possible."
When he arrived at Zhouyi, Jin Yong went to his house to pack his things.
Harvest the things into a bundle and pass it to the attendants. When Jin Yong went out, he saw Yang Lue waiting outside with a serious face.
"Emissary." Yang Lue said, "I think this matter is wrong."
"What's wrong?" Jin Yong asked.
"My lord, the envoys from Chang'an came one after another, which is unreasonable," Yang Lue said.
"Your Majesty is afraid of the northern border, so there is some impatience." Jin Yong laughed.
"Your Majesty's envoy has come to southern Xinjiang. Why did he come? Isn't it just to urge Qinghe to send troops? What does this have to do with the governors of various places?" Yang Lue was inducing.
"When the army is dispatched, the southern border will inevitably be empty. Probably let me wait for a good place and beware of the resurgence of the southern border rebels!"
"What the envoy said is correct, but when the old man was in Qinghe, the Jiedu envoy's mansion dispatched troops to clean the city as soon as he saw the envoy left. Envoy, there is something puzzling about this."
"You mean..."
"The old man is in Qinghe, and he only hears about Duke Shang, not Chang'an. As soon as the envoy left, Shi Zhongtang didn't say to send troops immediately, but stood still and cleaned Qinghe. And..."
Yang Lue expressed his guess, "This way to Huangzhou, the old man saw that all the troops are going to Qinghe. It stands to reason that if the army is dispatched, it should be assembled on the spot and wait for the Qinghe army to come to join. He is What do you want to do? Besides, there are more and more checkpoints in southern Xinjiang in the past few days, intercepting people passing by. Envoy, do you need such a big fanfare to send troops?"
Jin Yong stroked his beard and pondered for a long time, "You mean..."
"He wants to rebel!" Yang Lue decided to fool Jin Yong first, at least to cause some chaos in the southern border. If it can delay the time for the southern border army to go north, it would be great.
"Think about it, when the envoy came, he didn't move. Instead, he cleaned the Qinghe River and then set up checkpoints. Cleaning, there will inevitably be fish that slip through the net. The fish that slip through the net...go to Chang'an, so they set up checkpoints to intercept..."
Jin Yong stroked his beard, "So, the old man will go to Qinghe to have a look."
Yang Lue sighed and cupped his hands, "That's it, I'm leaving."
Jin Yong was stunned, "The old man will have to rely on you for advice in the future, what's the point?"
Yang Lue's expression was gloomy, "If Shi Zhongtang rebelled, the king will definitely go here and never return. If so, why do you still stay in Huangzhou? Please resign."
He turned away.
He Cong also saluted, and then went out.
Seeing that he was about to walk out of the gate, he heard Jin Yong say: "Hold on!"
Yang slightly turned around.
"This matter, let the old man think twice."
"The best way is to have someone investigate." Yang Lue felt relieved.
Let's arouse Jin Yong's suspicion first. Once this stubborn old man decides that Shi Zhongtang is plotting something wrong, it will be very lively.
Dozens of scouts set off immediately.
……
On the official road from Huangzhou to Qinghe, there are dense checkpoints.
"Where?"
More than ten scouts were stopped.
"Go to Qinghe!"
The scout said dissatisfied: "Yeah, you are from the Huangzhou Army. What do you mean by intercepting us?"
The team stationed at the checkpoint was sneering, "This is what Qinghe meant, dismount and search."
This is unprecedented harshness.
The scout scolded: "I am also from the Southern Border Army, why do I need to search myself?"
The team is yelling: "Get off the horse."
The scouts naturally refused, and a fight broke out between the two sides, and the scouts from Huangzhou were beaten severely.
……
"There are many checkpoints on the road, and everyone has to be searched."
The scout came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
"What is he intercepting?" Jin Yong frowned, "I'd better go to Qinghe to have a look. Does he still dare to kill the old man?"
"Emissary." Yang Luejiu was in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, pondering over southern Xinjiang for many years, and his understanding of Shi Zhongtang is much deeper than that of Jin Yong, "This matter is wrong!"
"Go and see if it's right."
Yang Lue shook his head, "The old man suggested that Jun Tuo should not be sick, and then see what's going on in the river."
"Alright!" Jin Yong followed suit.
Immediately, Jin Yong fell ill.
The envoy came to urge him angrily, but he couldn't even enter the gate.He shouted outside: "If you dare to disobey His Majesty's will, Jin Shijun will wait for Chang'an's wrath!"
Jin Yong was a little apprehensive, "It makes you think of a way to go to Qinghe to find out the news."
The governors of all states are rushing to Qinghe.
This is the first message received.
Then came the news that thousands of cavalry were gathering less than a hundred miles away from Huangzhou.
Jin Yong jumped up from the bed when he received the news.
"Not good, not good!"
He hurriedly dressed, while dressing, he said: "Mr. Yang is invited."
Yang slightly came in a hurry.
"Mr. Yang really has good eyesight, so Shi Zhongtang is probably going to play hard."
Yang Lue: "..."
Seeing his calm expression, Jin Yong couldn't help secretly praising Yang Lue for his magnanimity, "There is a group of cavalry stalking outside my Huangzhou, something bad is going on."
Yang Lue's heart skipped a beat, Jin Yong gritted his teeth and said, "He's not benevolent, don't blame this old man for being unrighteous. Come here, pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
Jin Yong wrote a memorial, which was sent to Chang'an.
Yang Lue asked: "Is the envoy impeaching that person?"
Jin Yong shook his head, "No, the old man said he was planning to rebel."
He looked at Yang Lue and said with a smile, "Tell me, what is the crime of slandering the Jiedu Envoy of Southern Xinjiang for treason?"

Jin Yong was a little apprehensive, "It makes you think of a way to go to Qinghe to find out the news."
The governors of all states are rushing to Qinghe.
This is the first message received.
Then came the news that thousands of cavalry were gathering less than a hundred miles away from Huangzhou.
Jin Yong jumped up from the bed when he received the news.
"Not good, not good!"
He hurriedly dressed, while dressing, he said: "Mr. Yang is invited."
Yang slightly came in a hurry.
"Mr. Yang really has good eyesight, so Shi Zhongtang is probably going to play hard."
Yang Lue: "..."
Seeing his calm expression, Jin Yong couldn't help secretly praising Yang Lue for his magnanimity, "There is a group of cavalry stalking outside my Huangzhou, something bad is going on."
Yang Lue's heart skipped a beat, Jin Yong gritted his teeth and said, "He's not benevolent, don't blame this old man for being unrighteous. Come here, pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
Jin Yong wrote a memorial, which was sent to Chang'an.
Yang Lue asked: "Is the envoy impeaching that person?"
Jin Yong shook his head, "No, the old man said he was planning to rebel."
He looked at Yang Lue and said with a smile, "Tell me, what is the crime of slandering the Jiedu Envoy of Southern Xinjiang for treason?"
