Chapter 541： Accident
Although this place is remote and quiet, it is not very far from Lin'an City, only three days' journey away, so the news of Lin'an City spread quickly.
As a result, Mu Yangling and others knew that the second prince and Qin Xiang would join forces to force the palace the day after they left, and the emperor and the empress died in the sea of fire, but within two days, Baili brought new news from the county seat.
Emperor Jingyan did not die. He had reunited the fairly loyal 60,000 imperial troops and stayed thirty miles outside Lin'an City. He had ordered the generals and soldiers of various places to be diligent. Therefore, Baili, who was not too far away from them, also received the news.
"Fourth grandma, although this is a remote place, if there is a war in Lin'an City, I am afraid that the refugees will end up here. Should we find another safe place?"
Mu Yangling shook his head, "How can there be a stable place in this world? Running back and forth is more dangerous, just stay here and ask someone to guard the yard."
Mu Yangling lowered his head and thought for a while: "Since the emperor is not dead, we have to be more careful. Don't contact the uncle and fourth master recently."
This small mountain village is indeed remote and quiet, and it is self-sufficient, so even if there is a war outside, it will not have much impact on them. Although they still have insufficient food and clothing, it is much better than the refugees who lost their homes due to the war. .
Originally, the village chief and Lizheng were worried that the imperial court would force conscription. After all, there are wars every year, and such incidents are unavoidable. However, there is chaos outside and there are many regimes. , I didn't bother here for a while.
The village chief and Li Zheng were fortunate, but they restrained the villagers even more, not letting them leave the village casually, so as not to provoke outsiders.
A few small villages nearby did the same, and as a result, seven or eight nearby villages actually passed away the days of isolation, of course, except for the Zhu family.
Both the village chief and Li Zheng knew that people from the Zhu family went out of the village to the city every day, but they only bought some things. The village chief felt relieved after observing for a while.
The whole village and Zhu's family seem to be separated into two sides. Although the lines are clear, they are in peace with each other.
In the village life is leisurely, but outside is chaotic like fire and oil, and the situation is different from day to day.
Emperor Jingyan ordered Qin Wang from various generals, but there were only four people who were willing to lead troops to Qin Wang, one was General Yuan, the other was General Qi, and there were two others, one was General Guo who led 100,000 troops, and the other was General Guo. It was General Huang Shen who led 30,000 troops.
Qi Xiuyuan personally led the troops from the east of Tongchuan, General Yuan also personally led the troops to the south, and General Guo was one of the five generals whose family members were detained by the emperor. , but he still didn't want to put his elderly mother in danger in Lin'an City, so the emperor gave an order, and he immediately left those rebels and rushed over.
General Guo only thought about his mother wholeheartedly, but General Yuan couldn't do it. He only brought 50,000 people to the south this time, and he left more people at the border. Jin Guo still had to be on guard, even if the emperor went down. The three gold medals let him bring all the army, and General Yuan just pretended not to see it.
And Qi Xiuyuan came to act cheaply.
Although the other generals who did not obey the edict did not come, they did not immediately rebel, but their attitudes were ambiguous, and they all stopped fighting and looked at Lin'an City.
If Emperor Jingyan won in the end, they would have to think about it before deciding whether to oppose him or not. If Emperor Jingyan lost, they would definitely oppose him. The reason was very obvious. The second prince was someone who murdered his father and killed his brother, so how could he be enthroned? Emperor?
Emperor Jingyan received the news from the various armies, and his body became even more stooped. He asked, "Qi Haoran didn't come back?"
You must know that although Qi Haoran is only a fourth-rank general, he has led an army of nearly 120,000, which is much more powerful than General Guo.
This time, the ministers did not follow Emperor Jingyan's crusade, but explained to him with a tired face, "Your Majesty, Qi Can will be entangled by Xixia, and he will not be able to escape at all, but he has sent a message back and will be separated as soon as possible. Half of the troops will be brought back."
After a pause with the minister who escaped from the emperor, he said, "Your Majesty, we always have to save a chance for the people of Dazhou."
If Qi Haoran retreated from the army, then Xixia would definitely slaughter the people in annoyance to vent their anger. Although several ministers were embezzled and bribed, they did a lot of enclosure and exploitation, but they really couldn’t do it and still focused on self-interest at this time.
The emperor was silent for a moment, but he didn't insist on letting Qi Haoran come back, "What news is there from the Yuan family?"
The ministers bowed their heads, "The family members of several generals were brought back to the palace by the second prince to be closely guarded, and the Yuan family was no exception."
The emperor's expression was obscure, but everyone could feel that he was in a very bad mood.
At first he used these family members to control several generals, but now the second prince is just following his old path.
When the emperor left the palace through the secret passage, the first thing he did was to have the Yuan family secretly sent out of Lin'an City immediately.
But the forbidden troops surrounding the Yuan family were protecting the Yuan family and they couldn't even get out of the intersection. The Second Prince and Prime Minister Qin obviously knew the importance of the Yuan family to General Yuan, so they sent a lot of people to intercept them, which was different from the emperor. Yes, they ordered that the Yuan family must be kept alive.
The living Yuan family is in their best interest, and they will never be killed if they can't do it. Otherwise, what will the emperor do if the Yuan family's death is planted on them?
The forbidden army escorting the Yuan family could not rush out, so they could only return to the Yuan family. They wanted to carry out the emperor's order, but the Yuan family was not a vegetarian. And there were rebels attacking outside. Those banned troops were attacked by the enemy, and their actions failed, and the Yuan family was also sent to the palace by the people of the second prince and other generals after constant consumption.
Including Qi Feng's family.
That's right, after Mu Yangling and the others left, Qi Feng's family became hostages.
The Emperor did not know what choice General Yuan would make, but he had to order King Qin, because he only had 50,000 forbidden troops. Compared with the rebels, these people were like the difference between a candle and a fire.
Now Emperor Jingyan has been completely discouraged, and has left everything to his subordinates to deal with, completely resigned to his fate, but he attaches great importance to the two young princes who brought him out of the palace, and puts all the protection forces behind him. on them.
Based on his understanding of General Yuan, after his death, General Yuan will definitely choose one of the princes to be enthroned, perhaps as a puppet, but this world still belongs to the Guo family, and the prince will have hope of regaining his power when he grows up.
Emperor Jingyan had a good plan, but God obviously didn't love him enough. He thought it was a rebellion between the Second Prince and Qin Xiang, but in fact it was another form of Western Xia invasion.
Just as he was in the tent waiting for Qi Xiuyuan and the others to arrive, an army gradually appeared twenty miles away, an army of only 20,000 strong cavalry soldiers.
The commander of the forbidden army came in with a pale face and reported: "Your Majesty, those are the cavalry of Xixia. The second prince sent envoys and Qin Xiang to come out to meet them."
The emperor fell down on the chair and said with a miserable smile: "Yes, it was not long after Qin Xiang returned from Xixia..."
As a result, Mu Yangling and others knew that the second prince and Qin Xiang would join forces to force the palace the day after they left, and the emperor and the empress died in the sea of fire, but within two days, Baili brought new news from the county seat.
