Morning dispels the darkness, and the silence covered by the night is also broken by various sounds.
Linzhou, in the main hall of the Lu Palace, the emperor covered his face and sat on the dragon chair, listening to the noise.
"There are news coming from Jiangnan Road and Henan Road."
"We also captured a few prisoners and have confessed."
"It is absolutely true that they are soldiers and horses of Ande Zhong."
"No, no, no, the key now is not the intrusion of the rebels in western Zhejiang, but Ande Zhong! Ande Zhong!"
"The prisoner said that Ande Zhong went to Hedong Road!"
"How could Ande Zhong get to Hedong Road? Look at the map. There is an iron wall between western Zhejiang and Hedong Road."
"What an iron wall? This prisoner said that not only did Ande Zhong pass by, he also passed by Huainan Road!"
Hearing these words, the emperor shook off his sleeves and stopped everyone's quarrel: "Don't use what the rebels said as evidence!"
The emperor's words stopped the quarrel among the ministers, but outside the door a eunuch hurried in with a tired soldier.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please report urgently." The eunuch screamed.
Everyone in the hall focused their attention on Xin Bing, who knelt down and said, "Generals Zhang An and Wang Lin are reporting urgently that Ande Zhong has entered Hedong."
There was a dead silence in the hall, and then there was an uproar.
The emperor once again covered his face with his sleeves and was surrounded by a commotion.
"How can this be?"
"Did Zhang An and Wang Lin make a mistake? These two people are not reliable!"
Because of Li Mingyu, the emperor did not need Zhang An and Wang Lin to lead troops to fight the rebels outside Linzhou. The two did not dare, and the court was not confident about letting them go, so they arranged for the two to patrol and spy.
Hedong Road is the place that attracts the most attention. The disturbance there is related to the safety of Linzhou, especially when the emperor is preparing to return to Beijing.
So we got the news from Hedong Road as soon as possible.
Cui Zheng, who had been silent, said: "Don't deceive yourself at this time. Good news may not be reliable, but bad news is often true. News of rebels crossing the border are suddenly reported from various places. This is not an accident. This must be the rebels." If you have action, you are Ande Zhong.¡±
The ministers were silent for a while.
"Ande Zhong is going to Taiyuan Mansion." A general thought, "Isn't it empty in western Zhejiang?"
An official banged a handful of official documents in his hand, "The letter from Governor Qi just arrived yesterday. The traitor Chengqing attacked and attacked the three cities on the Southeast Road. The situation is critical."
Another general frowned and looked at the place marked on the map where the rebels in western Zhejiang were found. "And from the news reported from various places, the rebels in western Zhejiang are not many in number. They are in groups of three to five, and there are only a hundred people at most. So it can be known that Ande Zhong did not take away many soldiers and horses in western Zhejiang."
Yes, such a big place in western Zhejiang is also Ande Zhong¡¯s home base. How could he give it up?
"That's it, Ande Zhong didn't bring many troops." An official had an idea, "It's okay to go to Taiyuan Mansion"
This remark was immediately rebuked by everyone.
"That's Ande Zhong!"
"Ten rebels can turn into a hundred warriors in his hands!"
The emperor on the dragon throne once again shook off his sleeves and asked in a trembling voice: "What's going on! Why did Ande Zhong go to Hedong?"
Yes, there is such a distance in between, and the guards are all there!
"Your Majesty, neither Henan Road nor Jiangnan Road is a match for the rebels."
"I am here to reprimand the local officials."
"There is also Huainan Road, Mrs. Chu"
The emperor put down his sleeves and said, "Mrs. Chu is in the capital. She is not in Huainan." At this point, he sighed, "If Mrs. Chu were here, it wouldn't be Young Master Xiang is still young after all."
Hearing this, all the ministers nodded, yes, yes, but some were a little distracted. It seemed that Mrs. Chu was not very old either?
"So to fight against the Guards, it is Wu Ya'er and his wife" an official sighed.
Before he finished speaking, another eunuch stumbled in with his soldiers from outside.
"Your Majesty," the eunuch shouted, "Master Zhang and Master Wang have sent an urgent report again."
These words made everyone in the hall suffocate. Although they didn't know the content yet, it became everyone's consensus that as long as Zhang An and Wang Lin sent back, there would be no good news.
Could it be that Ande Zhong brought the rebels from Hedong to fight?
"Your Majesty," Xin Bing knelt down and said, "Shi Chao has also arrived at Taiyuan Mansion."As soon as these words came out, the palace fell silent again.
With a crash, the emperor stood up from the dragon throne.
"This is impossible!" he shouted, "How could Shi Chao go to Taiyuan Mansion!"
"Compared with Ande Zhong's Zhejiang Province and Taiyuan Prefecture, which are separated by several defensive roads, Shi Chao and Taiyuan Prefecture are separated by only one defensive road, but this defensive road is guarded by Wu Ya'er!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Wu Yaer!
Which rebel can pass under his nose unharmed?

At night, the palace is rarely brightly lit, and many people cannot sleep tonight.
The emperor sat on his chair, covering his face with his hands and sobbing.
Cui Zheng walked in after being busy. When he saw this scene, he solemnly reassured the emperor: "Wu Ya'er and his wife will not rebel."
The emperor raised his head with a haggard face and a thick nasal voice: "But how did Shi Chao and Ande Zhong get to Taiyuan Mansion? At first, it was said that Ande Zhong went to Taiyuan Mansion. Someone wanted to hold Mrs. Chu to account, so I specially gave them She made a rescue, and I don¡¯t want everyone to blame her, but Shi Chao, this"
He opened his hands to Cui Zheng, his hands trembling.
"I really can't explain it!"
"Master Xiang, what they did is now visible to everyone in the world."
"What is this if not rebellion?"
So from the beginning, he suspected that it was the problem of Mrs. Chu. Cui Zheng looked at the emperor and placed the results of the day's verification and deliberation on the Long case.
"Wu Ya'er and his wife are unruly and disrespectful to the imperial court and His Majesty." Cui Zheng said. "But when it comes to rebellion, I don't think the two of them are capable of it."
Cui Zheng has always disliked Wu Yaer and his wife, but now he actually speaks for them? The emperor's hands on his knees were clenched tightly, his nails digging into his flesh
Cui Zheng said: "They were rebellious, greedy for fame and fortune, and became rebels. They could not enjoy His Majesty's kindness to them in Ankang Mountain. Without the trust of the people in the world, they would have nothing. This couple could not That would be stupid."
The emperor asked: "Then why did they do such a thing?"
Cui Zheng looked at the map and said coldly: "Because they don't want His Majesty to return to the capital, and they don't want to leave the capital themselves."
The emperor sighed: "If you don't want to go back, just tell me. If you want anything, just say it. How can I not give it to them? They don't believe me and do such a crazy thing."
"They want too much, and they know they can't ask for it." Cui Zheng said, "They just want His Majesty and the court to take the initiative to give it. What they want is nothing more than greater power, more wealth, and more prestige. These are all in the capital. and Hebei Road are easy to achieve, so they are reluctant to leave at this time.¡±
The emperor said: "When the world is at peace, what kind of wealth, power and prestige can they want if there is such a heavy rain in the summer?"
Cui Zheng glanced at the emperor, what he said the emperor knew the answer in his heart, right?
Of course they won¡¯t be able to get it by then.
It seems that Wu Yaer and his wife also know this, so they are so bold now.
"Then what should we do now?" the emperor said, "I will write them a letter and promise to give them whatever they want"
Cui Zheng interrupted the emperor: "Your Majesty, you can no longer indulge them. Previously, you were unruly and did not listen to your Majesty's orders. You only sold your official position to make money and killed aristocratic families. Now in order to blackmail the imperial court, you colluded with the rebels and put the world and its people at risk." If you don't care, this is not being arrogant, this is committing evil."
The emperor said: "What can we do? Prime Minister, if you accuse them now, I'm afraid they will really rebel."
Cui Zheng said: "Don't ask for guilt. Now is not the time to ask for guilt, but we have to put shackles on them."
The emperor smiled bitterly: "Who can put them on?"
Cui Zheng said: "Your Majesty, there is Xiang Yun."
Speaking of Xiang Yun, the emperor became even more angry. He asked him to do things, but he hid when he was assassinated. And his nephew, how could he guard the Huainan Road, and he was obsessed with the beauty of the Lady of Chu and being a lover, so that Ande Zhong Just like that?
Xiang Yun is not sure whether he is fascinated by Mrs. Chu when he is younger!
"Your Majesty." Cui Zheng knew the emperor's thoughts by looking at his face. The emperor was now less and less concealing his thoughts, "Captain Xiang is a safe man. As long as he is ready, he will definitely do something."

The people out for spring outings outside the capital were all dispersed. They looked at the soldiers and horses confronting each other in front of the checkpoint from a distance, distinguishing the fierce military flags.
One side is very familiar, with the Zhenwu Army and Chu flags flying, but the other side is unfamiliar, the Yingwu Army flags, and the Xiang flag.
"Captain Xiang," the general at the checkpoint said respectfully, "You can go to Beijing if you want, but the troops will have to wait at the camp here."
Xiang Yun said gently: "I won't go to Beijing anymore. I will stay here and invite Mrs. Chu to come and see me."
The officials who received the news rushed over on horseback. After hearing this, they hurriedly saluted and said: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Chu is not in good health. Please ask the governor to move."
"That's really unfortunate." Xiang Yun said apologetically, taking out a scroll, "But the Holy Apostle is very important here, so please help me, Madam."
An imperial edict?
