The old east wind comes to dream

Chapter 115 Hidden past affairs, who knows the truth?

The heavy snow in the winter of Tianshun in 26 years lasted almost a month before it stopped.In the north, there is a world of ice and snow, and the wind is biting to the bone, while Miasma, far in the southwestern border, is sunny and sunny like spring.

Gu Quan went all the way, and finally brought the remaining less than 3 people here, accompanied by Daoist Yuan Hui.

It wasn't until he came to Miasma Prefecture that Gu Quan realized that the influence that Taoist Yuan Hui operated here was far beyond his imagination.There are many small tribes in the southwest, although they are no longer considered climate after several times of suppression by Dazhao, but there are as many as 3 frontier soldiers gathered together.What Gu Quan didn't expect was that the leader of these people was actually a Central Plains native.

This man's face was full of scars, his hair was gray and messy, he had no beard under his chin, and he couldn't tell his age.According to Taoist Yuan Hui's introduction, this person's name is Chen Zhong.

When Gu Quan saw Chen Zhong, he felt a little wary in his heart. With just one glance, he could tell that Chen Zhong was an eunuch.At the same time, he also felt a little regretful about following Daoist Yuan Hui's words and coming to the southwest.It's just that he is not familiar with the place now, and the manpower he brings is not in the majority, so he is quite difficult to ride a tiger.

In the past two months, Gu Quan stayed at Chen Zhong's house all day, feeling more and more depressed.I couldn't help looking for Taoist Priest Yuanhui several times, but was told that Taoist Priest Yuanhui was traveling and was not at the residence.

Recently, Gu Quan couldn't bear it anymore, and sent Hu Pei to give an ultimatum to Daoist Yuan Hui - if he didn't see anyone again within three days, Gu Quan would lead his own people and leave Miasma State.He had already figured it out in his heart, after all, he still had some manpower in Nanzi Mansion and Baiyi Mansion, after all, the southwest was too far away from the capital, and he was not familiar with the local customs.If Daoist Yuan Hui didn't make it clear to him, it would be better to part ways, where to rest and recuperate is not for recuperation, why bother to rely on others in this miasma state.

Just when Gu Quan was anxious, Daoist Yuan Hui finally came.

As soon as they met, Daoist Yuan Hui was not intimidated by Gu Quan's gloomy face, on the contrary, he asked him with a bit of a master's attitude, and he was getting used to it recently.

Gu Quan didn't have the heart to gossip with her, and asked directly: "Master Daoist, what is the purpose of you deceiving me here?"

Daoist Yuan Hui raised his head and laughed. "The lord was joking, how dare a poor man deceive the lord. It's just that this place is more stable, away from the control of the court, and it is convenient to wait for the opportunity."

Gu Quan snorted coldly, and said, "Opportunity? Daoist Priest talked too much about the word opportunity. I want to ask, how long do you have to wait for this opportunity!"

Daoist Yuan Hui didn't care about his questioning, took the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup, sipped a few sips, and said, "Have you ever thought about it, if the time comes for you to be greedy, you who are far away from the capital?" , how should I call His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before him?"

Gu Quan smiled coldly, "I have my own plans for this matter, so don't worry about it!"

Daoist Yuan Hui pursed his lips slightly, showing a meaningful smile: "Isn't the lord thinking about sneaking back to the capital again to transport the seriously ill Crown Prince out of the palace?"

Gu Quan was seen through his thoughts, and couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show any emotion on his face, and asked back: "Why, does the Taoist priest have a good opinion on this matter?"

Daoist Yuan Hui flicked the whisk lightly with his thin arm, nodded and said: "If the prince really thinks that way, it would be a bit too troublesome. Moreover, this trip is dangerous, and there is no one to take care of him when he sneaks back to Beijing. Once someone finds out, it will be a disaster." Less, more harm than good."

Daoist Yuan Hui looked at Gu Quan, raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "This is definitely not a wise move, and the prince will definitely not act like this."

Gu Quan was extremely displeased at being squeezed so openly and secretly.There was a gloomy look in his eyes, and then he smiled. "The king and the Taoist priest are already in the same boat. If the Taoist priest has any ideas, it is better to say it clearly. This king will listen carefully."

"My lord, you're being polite." After these words, Taoist Yuan Hui's previous gentle expression was replaced with solemnity. "As far as I can see, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It depends on whether you have the courage, my lord."

**********

At the beginning of December, a military disaster came suddenly.

Gu Quan, the king of Ningling County, blatantly played the banner of "the side of the Qing emperor" in the southwest, and sent troops to march north.Different from those who had also unfurled this banner in previous dynasties, the "lord" that Gu Quan said refers to Lord Ziwei Xing!

In the early days, there were rumors that Gu Zizhan was the reincarnation of Lord Ziwei Xing. Later, through the mouth of Emperor Tianshun, this matter was passed on to the world in the Edict of Guilt, which can be regarded as a complete admission.But now that Gu Zizhan was seriously ill and comatose, Gu Quan took the opportunity to show his banner and bluntly said that there was a treacherous villain in the court who was obstructing him and assassinated Mr. Ziwei Xing.As the biological father of Xingjun's physical body, he wants to do justice for the sky, eliminate traitors, and rescue his own flesh and blood while assisting Xingjun.

As for this treacherous sycophant, Gu Quan pointed the finger at Mrs. Chu!

In matters such as revising the law of evaluation, allowing women to enter the officialdom, and establishing household registration, Chu Taifu and his family contributed the most, and caused the most controversy in the court.Gu Quan chose to use him as this target in order to incite antagonism and take the opportunity to win over people's hearts.

In Gu Quan's hands, he had the troops he had brought with him, together with those in Chen Zhong's hands, a team of [-] people had been assembled, which was said to be a [-]-strong army, marching northward.

To the north of the southwest is Nanzi Mansion.This was originally the place where Gu Quan had been operating for many years, and Gu Quan's [-] soldiers and horses entered the Nanzi government's jurisdiction with almost no effort.Naturally, there are cavalry guards stationed in Nanzi Prefecture, but since the death of General Qiu, the commander-in-chief, the cavalry guards in each prefecture have lost their commanders and began to fight on their own.Because of this, when the Rong tribe attacked, the Nine Sides Xiao cavalry guards were defeated one by one like a mess of sand.

Although the commander of the Nanzi Xiao cavalry guards was not Gu Quan's person, but because Emperor Tianshun's reprimanding edict against Gu Quan's rebellion had not been issued for a long time, and he couldn't find out the depth of Gu Quan for a while, it was inevitable that he would be a little timid during the battle.

——This is the biological father of Donggong after all, who knows if this unspeakable battle for the throne is involved.In case there is still the meaning of the East Palace here, it will be somewhat unclear who will own the world in the future.

Therefore, in addition to sending back a letter of emergency military report to the imperial court, the Nanzi Xiao cavalry guards became somewhat ambiguous about Gu Quan's resistance.

Seeing that Gu Quan was slowly approaching the junction of Nanzi Mansion and Baiyi Mansion with these 5 people, the commander of the Nanzi Xiao cavalry guards also became anxious.If Gu Quan just passed through the Nanzi Mansion like this, after Emperor Tianshun issued a crusade, he should be the first to bear the brunt of the liquidation.

At this moment, Gu Quan sent someone to send him a secret letter.

In this letter, Gu Quan not only promised him the position of commander-in-chief of Xiaoqiwei in the future, but also directly stated that everything he did was the idea of ​​Donggong.If you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light as soon as possible, you can also count as a meritorious service in the future.

The four words Conglong Zhigong are extremely attractive at this time.

In the end, Gu Quan's team successfully escaped from Nanzi Mansion and entered Baiyi Mansion.

At the same time, Emperor Tianshun suddenly issued a decree that Gu Quan, the fifth son of the Taizu, colluded with the remnants of the Chen family of the previous dynasty, rebelled against the superiors, abolished his title, expelled from the clan, and demoted to the common people.Order Taibao Lianshi to lead [-] troops, and add the post of Marshal of the army to fight against the enemy.Anyone who resists, regardless of their status, can be killed in front of the battle.At the same time, it ordered the garrisons in various places to stand ready and fight hard. Anyone who dares to slack off will be punished as an accomplice.As Lian Shi's direct descendant, the Dragoon Guards naturally accompanied him, and Liu Mulan, a loyal uncle, also led the newly formed Huang Nie Army to the battlefield again.

In addition, the Ministry of Punishment also issued an arrest warrant, drawing portraits of the common man Gu Quan and his subordinates, and posting them in various places in Dazhao, calling on the common people to fight against the enemy together.Soon, the people discovered that among these portraits of sinners, there was a middle-aged woman who looked like a Taoist nun.

This person's name is Chen Xuan, Taoist name Yuan Hui, and she is the only daughter of Chen Fu, the last emperor of the previous dynasty.The last emperor of the previous dynasty was a notorious tyrant.Dazhao has only been established for more than 30 years, and many people still have the shadow left by the cruel emperor in their hearts, and they even hate his daughter.Thinking that this common man, Gu Quan, would collude with the people from the previous dynasty, could it be that he wanted to change his life, which had been so hard to settle down, back to how it was before overnight?

Immediately, Gu Quan's reputation among the people was completely tainted.

At this time, Gu Quan finally realized that he had completely boarded the thief's boat.Daoist Yuan Hui used him from the beginning to the end!

It's true that Gu Quan wants to be the emperor, but he also hates the former dynasty.You know, when Gu Quan followed the Tai/ancestor to conquer the country, he had a blood feud with the Chen family. Even after the last emperor Chen Fu was killed, his head was chopped off by Gu Quan himself!Now, this woman who appeared in front of him from time to time and bewitched him with clever words turned out to be Chen Fu's daughter!

This made Gu Quan feel sick, and at the same time, afraid.

Naturally, he and Chen Zhong's men had internal strife.But what Gu Quan didn't expect was that the person who became the loser in the end was himself.

At the junction of Nanzi Prefecture and Baiyi Prefecture, there is a stretch of mountains.Forty to fifty thousand people were hidden in an inconspicuous cave.

This was originally the place where Gu Quan raised his private soldiers, and it is also the temporary hiding place for these chaotic troops who are being chased and hiding in Tibet.Gu Quan had never been here before, and naturally he did not expect that the first time he came, he would become a prisoner.

Until now, he still can't figure out why those soldiers under his command turned to that woman when he didn't realize it?

At this time, he also understood that Daoist Yuan Hui was the real leader of those people, and that Chen Zhong was just a servant in the former palace, a servant who obeyed orders.

On this day, on the fifth day of Gu Quan's confinement, he finally saw someone—Daoist Yuan Hui came.

The two of them walked in and out without opening their mouths.

After all, Gu Quan couldn't hold his breath, and asked coldly, "Why didn't you kill me and avenge your father?"

Now that each other's identities have been revealed, Daoist Yuan Hui stopped playing tricks, looked at Gu Quan for a long time, but retorted: "I want to ask you, how does it feel to cut off your cousin's head with your own hands?"

"At that time, did you ever feel a little unbearable?"

After all, Tai/Zu is Chen Fu's uncle, and Chen Fu and Gu Quan are cousins.Daoist Yuan Hui asked this, and he was talking about Gu Quan beheading Chen Fu's head.

Gu Quan sneered, "Chen Fu Huang is obscene and bloodthirsty, he regards all people in the world as ants, and kills people all day for fun. Such a person, death is not a pity! Besides, it is the law of heaven to win the king and lose the bandit .”

He couldn't help but said sadly: "Instead of thinking about what you have, you should think about who sold your identity to the court. You hide so deeply that even I don't know about Chen Fu's eldest daughter. The whereabouts of you, but now you are so light and delicate, you have leaked out your plots for many years. Hahahaha, so happy! So happy!"

Daoist Yuan Hui waited quietly for him to finish speaking, with no emotion on his face, nodded, and said softly, "You don't need to worry about the fact that the imperial court knows my identity, it's not important to me. But what you said It's not bad, I never thought of avenging Chen Fu either. But in the same way, your Gu family's generation, especially you, is also not a pity to die. "

Gu Quan was furious and shouted, "Then why don't you kill me!"

A smile appeared on the lips of Taoist Yuan Hui, "Of course it is because the time has not come. If you die, how can the world be in chaos? If the world is not chaotic, how can Gu Zhen fall? If he is still in peace In that position, how can the crown prince inherit the throne?"

Her repeated rhetorical questions made Gu Quan more and more confused. "Could it be that you are on the same team as Gu Che?"

Daoist Yuan Hui bent down slightly, looking straight at Gu Quan.

After a long time, she smiled and replied: "That's natural. I might as well tell you, Ah Che, but it's my child."

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
