Chapter 45: The Twists and Turns of Suppressing the Rebellion

At this time, the gentle but rebellious Chief Assistant was standing in the main hall, quietly feeling the low pressure permeating the hall.

This low pressure has lasted for half a month, and has become more and more intensified recently. It seems that there is an ominous atmosphere before the storm coming, which makes people feel frightened.

"What do I do to feed you trash?!" The emperor slapped the dragon case suddenly, and his anger burst out uncontrollably, "The traitor has become so arrogant, but you can't do anything about it! What else can I expect you to do? "

The civil and military ministers knelt down in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Calm down your anger, calm down, I have heard these two words cocoon!" Yan Chen was furious, "What I want is a solution, not to calm down your anger!"

The emperor was so furious because he was suppressing the rebellion.

The counter-rebellion was full of twists and turns, and it was like a hand was constantly slapping the court in the face from behind, making the emperor so angry that he completely lost his mind.

Among the four generals under Xiao Chongshan, after Gao Linghai was assassinated, King Duan quickly selected another general, Jiang Qinghe, according to the order.

Just in case, Commander Jiang Qinghe did not go home that night and still lived in the military camp. All the weapons and luggage he needed to carry when setting off the next day were packed by his family and sent to the military camp.

However, this time it still failed to prevent the accident from happening.

Jiang Qinghe discussed counterinsurgency matters with several fellow generals in the camp that night. After his fellow generals left, he was the only one left in the tent.

When the soldiers went in with water to wash him, they found him lying on the table, completely dead.

People in the military camp were suddenly filled with panic and suspicion. The remaining two generals became the object of everyone's suspicion. The eyes of the soldiers under their command were meaningful when they looked at them.

The news reached the palace in the morning. All civil and military officials were shocked and the emperor was even more shocked and angry.

"The thief is so arrogant, he will be killed without mercy if found out!"

However, even if the traitor is cut into pieces, we have to wait until he is found out. Now that the rebellion is about to be suppressed, the leading generals are frequently in trouble. It seems that there is a pair of invisible hands secretly controlling their life and death, waiting to take away the leading soldiers at any time. The life of the general made people panic.

In addition to facing death threats, two generals in the army were suddenly killed, which was a provocation to the imperial power. It was simply arrogant!

Extremely arrogant!

Yan Chen's chest rose and fell violently, his face turned livid with extreme anger, and there was an unspeakable uneasiness deep in his heart.

After venting his anger, he suppressed his anger and sat down on the dragon chair with a gloomy expression.

"The counter-rebellion has happened again and again. If you have anything you want to say, please feel free to say it." His voice was cold and filled with anger. "I just want to know who is so bold and bold, who repeatedly provokes the power of Heaven and refuses to let the imperial court go." In the eyes."

After a perfect silence fell in the hall, the Minister of Civil Affairs was the first to speak: "Could it be the eldest princess who is doing something secretly?"

Yan Chen covered his face with frost and said nothing.

"The eldest princess has already led the Qilin Guards to leave the imperial city. It is unlikely that she will attack the general who suppressed the rebellion." Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance guessed, "I am more inclined to believe that there is something wrong within the Huben Army."

"I have the same idea as Mr. Ji. When something happened to General Gao in his own home, it can be said that it was an assassination attempt. But Jiang Qinghe was killed in his own camp. How can we say that this incident has nothing to do with other generals in the army? "

There are so many people in the military camp, and the guards are like copper and iron walls. Which assassin has the ability to fly and escape, and can sneak into the military camp to kill people?

Wen Jin stood quietly, listening to the ministers express their opinions, with a calm and calm look on his elegant and handsome face.

"Wen Qing." Yan Chen's eyes fell on his face, "What do you think?"

"I will not make random guesses about things without evidence." Wen Jin lowered his eyes slightly, "Everything will be subject to the results of the investigation."

"How to check?"

"It is important to investigate who is the murderer, but this matter cannot be urgent for the time being. The top priority is still to solve the counter-insurgency matter." Wen Jin's voice was pleasant and calm, calm, "I think it is no longer suitable to choose from among the generals of the Huben Army. People lead troops.”

"Why?"

"Because if we continue to choose generals under General Xiao, it may lead to more casualties." Wen Jin said in a tone that was neither humble nor overbearing. "We still don't know who the murderer is or what his purpose is. If it is just targeting the generals of the Huben Army, then if we continue to choose , General Xiao’s generals are afraid that the losses will be aggravated.”

Several important ministers listened to his analysis and nodded involuntarily, obviously feeling that Wen Jin's words made sense.

"If the murderer is motivated by interests...for example, one of the two generals, then it would be even more unsuitable to continue to use them, because a general who only has interests in mind and can attack his colleagues will not care about the life and death of his soldiers. On the battlefield, one only cares about victory or defeat, and only cares about his own rewards and promotions, without any regard for the lives of his soldiers. "

Mr. Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, believed deeply: "What Mr. Wen said is reasonable."

"I agree with Mr. Wen's idea." The Minister of Civil Affairs expressed his opinion, "When a general leads troops to fight, victory is the most important thing, but the life and death of his soldiers cannot be ignored. Therefore, the commander's mind, magnanimity, and conduct are very important. People who are greedy for profit should not be reused."

The Lord Cabinet King bowed: "I second the proposal."

Yan Chen sat on the chair, his emotions calmed down: "Does Wen Aiqing recommend a suitable candidate?"

Wen Jin said calmly: "What I mean is to ask the regent to send troops to quell the rebellion."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall instantly solidified.

Yan Chen's expression suddenly turned cold.

"The regent is brave and good at fighting, and it is no problem to deal with a mere remnant of the previous dynasty." Wen Jin lowered his eyes, his elegant face showed a gentle look, "The regent can also save time and reduce the loss of troops by sending troops. Not only can it teach the rebels the biggest lesson, but it can also Take this opportunity to frighten the vassal kings from all over the world and make them restrain their ambitions and disobedient actions. "

Everything Wen Jin said made sense, so the ministers naturally agreed.

However, Yan Chen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had a cold expression and was extremely unhappy.

Send troops from the regent?

Is it possible that there is no one available at court and the regent must be invited to take action?

The more the ministers worshiped the regent as a god, the angrier Yan Chen felt. Angry in the hearts of these people, he, the legitimate king of a country, was not as prestigious as the regent.

The more Yan Chen thought about it, the angrier he became.

He would not agree to let the regent send troops, absolutely impossible.

"Letting the regent quell the rebellion wouldn't be overkill?" He said calmly, "Besides, Dayong has a vast territory, and there may be wars at the border at any time. We cannot rely on the regent alone to quell the country. We should cultivate younger and more capable generals and let them Everyone can be promoted and reused.”

Wen Jin was still calm: "If the Emperor has this intention, I still have one more candidate."
