Peerless Pirates

Daqi Palace City, Xizhai (Latest Chapter of Bie Menghan).

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke for a moment. Song Zheng was even a little dazed, even lost his mind. Why so many people died? Even He Kuan, the supervisor of the city guard, died. Song Zheng couldn't understand.

He felt for once that everything was out of control.

Recalling everything that happened in this period of time, Song Zheng felt a chill on his back. First, he was almost killed by the bombing of the Lian Family Boat on the Qinhuai River, and then Jiang Kui actually sent people to assassinate Guo Xingjia, and Huang Yuandu found out that he saved Guo Xingjia.

So many people from the city guard died tonight. The combination of these things made Song Zheng feel like he was under siege.

When Song Zheng was anxious, Pang Hui said, "Your Majesty, please ask someone to inform the Queen Mother immediately."

The little emperor suddenly said, "Yes, little noble son, you heard what I just said, go and report it to the Queen Mother immediately!"

The cupboard was full of money and he quickly responded and ran out in a hurry (Zi Ling).

"Uncle Emperor, Prime Minister, what should we do next?" the little emperor asked, rubbing his hands. Apparently he had never encountered such a serious situation and was a little panicked.

"The veteran believes that the first is to mobilize half of the imperial army to defend the imperial city." Pang Hui said with a stern face, "and the second is to order people to immediately go to the city guards and the capital guards to convey the order, pay close attention to the movements around Jiangning City, and send 10,000 soldiers each

People are patrolling outside the city. The third is to order people to immediately surround Ji Yong's house and control everyone in the house. The poisonous salt case was caused by the Ji family salt farm, and Ji Yong cannot escape his involvement."

Huang Yuandu hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty is right. Before entering the palace, I had deduced that there might be something wrong with Ji's salt. I had already mobilized the Dark Eagle to secretly surround Ji Mansion. Everyone entering and leaving Ji Mansion must not be able to escape surveillance.

"

Everyone present was stunned, and Pang Hui snorted softly, "The Prime Minister really has the ability to predict the future."

Huang Yuandu shook his head and said, "I am just preparing for a rainy day. Putting aside this, if the Ji family rebels, they will have corresponding means. Therefore, I suggest that except for one battalion of the Forbidden Army, all other Forbidden Army enter the city and three battalions defend the imperial city.

, four battalions strengthen patrols in the city from the southeast, northwest, and sound the gong as a signal if there is any abnormality. In this way, there are city guards and capital guards outside the city, and forbidden troops inside the city, which can ensure the safety of Jiangning City.

"

The little emperor looked at Pang Hui and Huang Yuandu, and suddenly said, "Master Song, what do you think?"

Song Zheng took a long breath and tried to calm down his mood, "The prince and prime minister have made extremely thoughtful arrangements. I would like to add that all city gates are closed. No one can enter or exit the city unless there is an imperial edict."

"Commander Song is very considerate. I also suggested that we put the case in the imperial treasury aside tonight and concentrate on taking precautions." Ni Wuji also said. Just as he was about to go out, Pang Hui was about to come, and Huang Yuandu hinted that he should stay.

Come down.

After the initial panic, the little emperor calmed down. "Okay, I will immediately draft an order to Hu Yande and Tong Bing to mobilize the imperial army. Sir, Master Song will escort Lan Xiangming and others.

The two hundred forbidden troops are under your command first. You immediately go to surround Ji Mansion and cooperate with the secret forces.

The eagle captured all the Ji family and the whole family (read the full text of Soul Belief). Uncle Emperor, as for the city guards and the capital guards, I will also draft a decree and arrange it according to your wishes. I will send it to you together with your military orders in a while.

Camp. Wait for the Queen Mother to come, use the seal, and all the imperial edicts will be sent out at the same time."

"Your Majesty is wise." Several people raised their hands in unison.

The little emperor nodded, "Master Song, you understand what I mean. It's up to you to draft this decree."

"I honor your order!" Song Zheng stepped forward and immediately studied the ink. Ni Wuji also stepped forward to help Song Zheng spread the imperial edict.

"Uncle Emperor, Prime Minister, please stay by my side tonight and stay here with me. I want to see if the Ji family has the courage to rebel!"

Huang Yuandu and Pang Hui looked at each other and responded in unison.

Song Zheng paused for a moment. The little emperor still seemed to have doubts. He kept the two most important ministers in the court by his side and did not let them leave his sight. In comparison, he, the commander of a thousand households, could stay with him.

Here, he can also draft imperial edicts, which shows that the little emperor trusts him the most.

Soon, Song Zheng finished the draft and began to write the imperial edict.

As soon as the third imperial edict was written, footsteps were heard outside the door. A moment later, Queen Mother Huang Jiao entered the West Studio accompanied by four maids. Everyone hurriedly paid tribute to Huang Jiao.

Song Zheng glanced at Huang Jiao and couldn't help but sigh to himself, this Huang Jiao is indeed extremely beautiful. Even though she is over thirty years old, she is still radiant. I don't know if it is an illusion, but tonight Huang Jiao's face is as cold as frost, her eyebrows are

There is a sense of spring in the room.

This was not the first time Song Zheng met Huang Jiao. He had met Huang Jiao once before when he was a tutor in the palace. Huang Jiao just encouraged him a few words and ignored him. At that time, Song Zheng just glanced at her.

I didn't dare to look carefully. But today I saw it clearly.

Huang Jiao was also an extremely decisive person. She nodded lightly, then found a chair and sat down, "What's going on? Isn't someone in the Duke's Mansion poisoned? How come the Forbidden Army, the City Guards and the Capital Guards all...

There was poisonous salt and many people died?"

"Mother, this is simply unbelievable (Yu Huang). Nearly thirty people in the Duke's Mansion were poisoned at noon today. The Prime Minister, Master Nie, and Commander Song went to the Duke's Mansion for inspection and found that the poisonous salt was resold from the Forbidden Army. N

Your Excellency and Master Song have just found out the clues and found the poisonous salt

, both the City Guards and the Capital Guards were involved in the crime. More than a thousand people in the Capital Guards were poisoned. The City Guards were even more serious. More than 800 sergeants and several generals were poisoned, and 57 sergeants died.

Supervisor He Kuan died. According to investigation, the salt supplied by the Ji family was poisonous."

"He Kuan is really dead?" Huang Jiao asked in horror.

Pang Hui nodded, "He Jianjun is not as strong as the generals, and he is older, so he cannot resist."

The corners of Huang Jiao's mouth twitched a few times and she asked, "How did you deal with this?"

The little emperor explained the countermeasures, and Huang Jiao hummed, "It's all very good. Commander Song, you can go ahead and draw up the order. In addition, give another order to dispatch a thousand sergeants to Hongjue Temple to prevent the bad guys from offending the place."

"Respect the Queen Mother's decree!" Song Zheng replied quickly, but he cursed in his heart that he was still thinking about that old bald donkey after all this time.

Neither Huang Jiao nor Song Zheng expected that these thousand sergeants would frighten old monk Di Fei and almost lead the training monks to escape.

Song Zheng drafted the edict, and the young emperor stamped it first. Huang Jiao's maid took out the Queen Mother's seal and stamped each edict. At the same time, Song Zheng took out his golden talisman of command and handed it to Niwu.

Taboo, and Pang Hui also took out the Taiwei token he carried with him.

With the money in the cabinet, several eunuchs were called in from outside, each carrying the imperial edict and going out. Shuiding was responsible for contacting the imperial army on duty today, and they sent people to escort the eunuchs who delivered the edict and distribute the edict everywhere.

Ni Wuji also took the military mansion and mobilized 200 imperial troops to round up the Ji family.

Everything was arranged well and it was already late at night. Huang Jiao went to the side hall to rest. Due to poor health, Pang Hui was also arranged by the little emperor to move to the side hall on the other side. Huang Yuandu also had a busy day and was extremely sleepy, so he later went to the back hall.

(Read the full text of Sophie's Another World). Although according to regulations, neither Pang Hui nor Huang Yuandu could stay overnight in the palace, but this was an extraordinary period and everything was lenient.

Song Zheng and the young emperor, who were young and full of energy, were talking in the palace.

"Master Song, do you think the Ji family has the courage to rebel?"

Song Zheng thought for a moment and said, "I can't say for sure, but I guess they don't have such courage! What we did just now was also prepared."

"Then how do you explain the poisonous salt thing?"

"I don't know why the Ji family is so bold. It's really asking for death. Maybe someone wants to bring down the Ji family."

"I have long disliked these Jiangnan people. Especially the Ji family, not only do they occupy official salt, but they also fight against our trading house, and even use scheming behind their backs. They deserve to be damned!"

Song Zheng's lips curled up and he said, "Your Majesty, you are not the only one who dislikes the Ji family. I heard Uncle Da Guo say that Dark Eagle's funding has always been provided by a few people headed by the Ji family, but they rely on it.

She is pampered and pampered, and always uses money to cheat the prime minister. Among them, the Ji family is the worst, and the prime minister is

This is also extremely annoying. In addition, the military is even more critical of the Ji family. The Ji family has made so much money. It is said that the entire Ji family is as rich as the country. The money they make in a year even catches up with the taxes of Daqi.

However, the garrison camps and border troops in various places are repeatedly in arrears with pay, which makes the prince very anxious."

The little emperor pursed his lips and thought for a long time, then suddenly whispered, "You mean, maybe it was the emperor's uncle or the prime minister who framed the Ji family?"

Song Zheng was secretly happy. It would be great if the little emperor thought about it this way. "Your Majesty, why do you think so?"

The little emperor was a little excited and analyzed, "Look, the Ji family tree has deep roots, and has many alliances with other people, and has an implicit intention to fight against the imperial court. In this case, to eliminate the power of the Ji family, ordinary methods may not be effective. Only

Only by resorting to such extraordinary measures can the Ji family anger the entire Daqi military, giving the military an excuse to attack them without involving everyone else."

"What the Holy One said makes sense (Rebirth and Shenzhi did not take the ordinary path)! In this case, the Ji family may not have rebelled, but provoked public anger, and that's why they resorted to such tactics."

"Yes! That should be the case. Although I was shocked at first, the more I thought about it, the weirder it became. Now I have come to realize it." The more the little emperor thought about it, the more it made sense.

"Your Majesty, not only the prime minister and the prince, but also several other big families were dissatisfied with the Ji family at that time. The Ji family always relied on the rule of law in the court and always lived alone. Other big families were also jealous. Maybe it was because of the military.

Kill the Ji family with your own hands, and then seek to get a share of the salt farm." Song Zheng's intention was naturally to make the water as muddy as possible, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the little emperor.

"Well, it's possible what Master Song said. Huh, these big families actually want to build salt fields. It's simply wishful thinking." The little emperor sneered, "Master Song, the person who used this trick is quite courageous.

He Jianjun also died in the military camp."

Song Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly replied, "So many city guards were poisoned, but no one died. Why did the city guards die so many people? I also feel something is wrong."

"There's something wrong with this! One possibility is that there's a lot of arsenic in those poisonous salts, and the other possibility is that someone wants to get rid of He Jianjun. I think the latter one may be more likely."

Song Zheng suddenly realized it and thought to himself, I thought it was so strange. It turned out that someone was using this to make a fuss. Thinking of this, Song Zheng couldn't help but picture Pang Hui's pale face in front of his eyes. This prince who looked sickly had given him another blow.

Lesson one. It’s a pity that the lives of those fifty-seven sergeants and He Kuan’s bodyguard were treated as grave goods and lost in a daze. It’s really heartbreaking.

Song Zheng believed that he had a bodhisattva's heart and a butcher's methods, but he never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Now, Yang Zhen was about to take over the city guard, and that man obviously wanted to use this to firmly control the city guard.

"After killing one Jianjun He and another Jianjun He, I don't believe that he will have so many opportunities to kill again." The little emperor said disdainfully, "Don't worry about it for now. Master Song, tell me about the Ji family being kidnapped."

What should be done with those salt fields after they fall?"~
