The third day of the first month of the twelfth year of Shaoxi
Inside Renming Hall
The main hall is still as magnificent as ever, but many of the palace maids and eunuchs inside have been replaced. The remaining ones are those who know the relevant situation and are very obedient and useful.
Qiao Mu was sitting in the main seat, listening to the report from General Li who was responsible for taking over all the defense lines of Lin'an Fucheng from the city wall defense general.
"Reporting to the saint, the Xinghua Army has completely taken over Lin'an City without encountering any obstruction. After we took out your transfer order, all the soldiers guarding the city carried out the handover without any doubt. No soldiers or soldiers were used in the process. No loss, even if they went back to celebrate the festival happily, do youdo you think this is a fraud?"
When General Li Yonghui came to report the news, he didn't have much confidence, because it always felt that the smoothness was a bit too smooth, which made people have a very floating and unreal feeling. It was far from having the confidence to fight with real guns and guns in person, and his back was tough. .
It feels quite despicable.
"is that so?
how about you? How is the defense intervention of the Imperial Guard? Judging from your appearance, you don't look like you have been through a battle. Could it be that you are the same as him, and you haven't used any soldiers or artillery? "
Qiao Mu frowned and looked at the other General Wang who was also very clean and was sent out by her to take over the palace guard, and couldn't help but ask.
"Reporting to the saint, it is indeed the case.
After they saw the official seal's decree, they all took off their armor and went home to reunite. However, the leader of the imperial army asked me when they would come to change shifts. I didn't know, so I said it casually. Half a month. "
General Wang Minghai also reported back.
Qiao Mu pondered for a long time and couldn't figure out why it went so smoothly. At the same time, he couldn't help but have an idea that this might not be a trap.
And at this moment, Grandma Ming beside her suddenly said:
¡°Saint, you authorities are lost!
In your opinion, what you did can even be regarded as a rebellion, but don¡¯t forget that you are still a queen, and you are even a queen who can exercise some of the royal power. As long as you don¡¯t change the dynasty with great fanfare and don¡¯t really kill the king and ascend the throne. , then in the eyes of many people, your orders are actually no different from those of the officials. Although they may find it strange that you have made some personnel transfers, they probably don't dare to question it. At most, they whisper in private.
Therefore, this is far from the time to relax your vigilance. The real danger and the biggest obstacle is after you make the official announcement. That is when you need to start war and use guns. "
Indeed, many things are only clear to those who are on the lookout and confused by the authorities. Qiao Mu has positioned herself as a rebel from the very beginning, and has instilled in her subordinates concepts such as revolution is justified and rebellion is innocent. Therefore, even her subordinates are not aware of it at all. Without realizing this, they thought they were engaging in revolutionary rebellion after entering Lin'an City.
But in fact, they are not yet.
??At least not in the eyes of public officials.
After listening to what Grandma Ming said, Qiao Mu suddenly realized that she had just hit the wrong end of the stick.
"Mama is right, I'm in trouble.
"In this case, you two and General Liu will guard Lin'an together. Don't let up. There will be a bloody battle in a while, and you may be asked to help ransack homes. There are still many things to do in the future, so you must be vigilant.
Okay, let¡¯s all go back first!
When the Guan family is still alive, I don¡¯t want to take action. When you hear the death knell of the Guan family one day, it will be time to take action.
I understand, just come back! "
¡° Qiao Mu carefully understood and pondered what Grandma Ming said, and found that what she said did make sense.
When Wu Zetian made trouble and usurped the throne, he didn't seem to say how many troops would be needed. He just cleaned up Chang'an and then ascended the throne. Although some people outside Chang'an raised troops to oppose it, they did not join forces. To deal with Empress Wu together, we only raised troops in one or two areas, and they were quickly suppressed.
Therefore, in theory, there is nothing wrong with the situation happening now. Qiao Mu naturally relaxed a lot and began to agree with the three generals here on a time to officially take action.
After the three generals left, Qiao Mu asked Grandma Ming to send someone to inform the lieutenants next to the three generals to pay attention to the changes in the three generals' thoughts. If they had any objections, they would be killed immediately, and then they could continue to look after Zhao with peace of mind. Don, and help him feel his pulse from time to time to calculate when he will die.Is it auspicious or unlucky?
It can be said that Qiao Mu is really looking forward to the death of her husband and taking over his inheritance.
After all, there are three joys in life.
If you get promoted and get rich, your husband will die!
Although Zhao Dun worked hard to take the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor every day, and he also worked hard to follow the doctor's orders. He would do whatever the imperial doctor did not tell him to do, but this was his destiny. If he did nothing, he would live in ease and enjoyment. The emperor might have a few more years to live, but as a result, he still worked diligently for several years under the influence of Qiao Mu, and his life was naturally shorter. Even if there were all kinds of good things like century-old ginseng hanging on his life, he would eventually die. He didn't last long. Not long after the Spring Festival, the dragon died on the day when he raised his head.
On the day of Zhao Dun's death, Qiao Mu rang the death knell, and while the ministers and nobles entered the palace, he issued a house search order to General Liu, who was currently in charge of the palace's imperial army, and searched the homes of all the ministers and nobles in Lin'an City. As for the evidence, there was naturally a lot of it. It has been collected years ago. Even if some people do not have solid evidence, they will have it after the house is raided. The source of the huge property is unknown. Qiao Mu thinks it is quite interesting. It can be added to the laws of the Song Dynasty in a timely manner. superior.
At this time, Qiao Mu was leading another forbidden army, coercing all the ministers, and formally announced his enthronement as emperor in the Qiming Hall. The name of the Song Dynasty would not change for the time being, but the reign name would be changed to Emperor Yuanwa.
Of course, the ministers would definitely not be willing to do this, but Qiao Mu is not a kind person. She has long been prepared to step on the minister's head and become the emperor, so naturally she doesn't care about killing people. Before coming, , she had already read a list to everyone in the Imperial Forbidden Army she brought with her. That list was a list of the Song Dynasty's clean and honest people that Qiao Mu had finally compiled. The people on the list had never done anything. He harmed the people, his family members had not done anything bad, and they themselves had never been corrupt or bribed. There were not many Song Dynasty officials, there were only fifty in total, and most of them were officials who had just been in office for a short time, so they were qualified. There were only two mourners in the previous court, so there was no need to worry about manslaughter. Anyway, except for those two from the Hanlin Academy, all the remaining ministers in the court were able to find out crimes that were worthy of the death penalty.
