Chapter four hundred and twentieth
(Thank you for the Alliance! Thank you Zhao Wuxiu 2014, ug, is it difficult? Xue Yuntao, the glorious charter, the highlight of the light, dzq support)
Thumbs up!
A snow-white dove fleece passed through the ridge, and its momentum was like an arrow, throwing into a small building with a window open. Immediately, a beautiful face popped up in front of the window and waved to the two young women talking to each other by the lotus pond downstairs, and their voices were like orioles: "Big sister, second sister, have a secret letter."
When the two young women looked back, it was Zhen Qin and Zhen Rong.
This is the west courtyard of the back hall of the General's Mansion, and the hostess is the three sisters of the Zhen family. On the surface, it seems that it is just a residence for the General's family, but in fact... it is indeed just a residence for the internal family. The only difference from other places is that it raises many birds. Some of them are pigeons, and this is not an ordinary pigeon, but a trained carrier pigeon.
In Xiang, Liaodong, Zhen Qin used carrier pigeons to provide intelligence to Marhan far away in western Liaoning, and she had quite experienced in this regard. While vigorously developing the Marhan, she did not forget the carrier pigeons that had made considerable contributions to the early development of their careers. Although the carrier pigeons were not as reliable as the Xinying in messaging and difficult to use in military use, they also had their advantages and could be used in intelligence.
Unlike the Xinying who passes thousands of miles, the range of activities of the pigeons is only in one city. As of the sixth year of Jian'an, there were 18 counties in the entire Sili School Office, and the most complete one was Luoyang. The pigeon headquarters in Luoyang was in this seemingly inconspicuous west courtyard of the back hall.
The headquarters of the Marine General Pigeon is here, not only because of Zhen Qin, but also because it separates military and intelligence. It is not related to each other and does not belong to each other, and is only responsible to him and a few senior personnel. The biggest advantage of doing this is that everyone's eyes are attracted by the military's telepathy, thus ignoring the pigeon. In the whole of Luoyang, many people know that the general's subordinates like to raise birds, but no one knows that the flock of birds flying in and out is mixed with a small number of pigeons with "special missions".
The three sisters of Zhen only serve as the task of sending and receiving secret letters, but have no right to open the contents of the secret letter. In other words, they are just like delivering express delivery and have no right to know. In this way, it is equivalent to picking up the three girls from the intelligence system. They are just simple "express delivery girls" and ensuring the confidentiality to the greatest extent.
An important node of Luoyang Intelligence Network is just released in the sun, but it is not noticeable at all. This is probably the darkness under the light.
Hearing the call of the younger sister, the two girls returned hand in hand, lifted their skirts and climbed up the tower, and opened the door of the pavilion, and saw the girl smiling like a flower to feed the pigeon. The snow-white pigeon tilted his head to look at the girl from time to time, and then lowered his head to peck at the pigeon food in the girl's palm. The pigeon's white palms were like jade. The two people and pigeons looked at each other to form a youthful and lively picture.
Zhen Qin smiled and shook her head: "Don't worry about teasing the carrier pigeons, where is the secret letter?"
Zhen Luo spread his other palm, and the palm was a bamboo tube half-fingered and as thin as chopsticks.
Zhen Qin took it, looked at Feng Ni, and her face changed slightly: "It's an urgent letter, I want to give it to Jia Lingjun immediately." After that, he turned around and left hurriedly.
Zhen Rong approached the younger sister, picked up a newly completed landscape painting on the table and appreciated it, and suddenly said, "This is not like the landscape of the northern country."
Zhen Luo smiled and said, "I heard Mrs. Mi, who had just returned from the East China Sea, talk about the scenery of Jiangnan. She was fascinated by her imagination. She painted it based on her imagination, and I don't know if it looks like it. I'll ask my wife later."
Zhen Rong's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "Actually, Mrs. Mi has never been to the real Jiangnan. If you want to ask if the painting looks like it, it is best to ask someone."
Zhen Luo was happy: "Who?"
"Of course it's the one who is leading troops to fight in Jiangnan."
Zhen Luo was stunned and lowered his head shyly: "Second Sister..."
Zhen Rong gently lifted the little sister's soft jaw, stretched out his fingers to gently wipe the long and slender eyebrows, and sighed: "Little sister, you are almost 29 years old. You can't drag it anymore. When he comes back, I will talk to my eldest sister..."
Zhen Luo shook his head in a panic: "Aweng won't agree..."
"Where is Aweng, my eldest sister and I will talk." Zhen Rong gently took the younger sister into his arms, "I promised that the three of us sisters will always be together."
...
A moment later, the secret letter was placed on Jia Xu's desk. Jia Xu opened it and saw that cold sweat came down. The secret document was intercepted and deciphered! Looking back, his brows became tighter and tighter, and he murmured: "What a trick, there are really talented people in the Three Duke's Mansion."
After putting down the secret letter, Jia Xu's eyes seemed to be closed, he stroked his beard with one hand and tapped his face with the other hand. After a while, he ordered: "Please Xu Taichang, Hua Yilang."
Xu Taichang was Xu You, who served as Taichang Chief at this time; and Hua Yilang was Hua Xin. After he returned to the north, he was appointed as the Yilang. Yilang was a Lang official in the Han Dynasty, equivalent to a reserve cadre. Before there was a formal position, he only had a monthly salary ranging from 400 to 600 shi. However, if he was released from home, he would be a county magistrate, chief secretary, cavalry commander and other thousand stone officials.
It is normal for Hua Xin to lose Yu Zhang and be able to become a counselor, but if he doesn't find a big backer, he will be a counselor for his whole life, so he will not want to leap at the dragon gate. The biggest force in the court is the general. As a plain, Hua Xin, who is unable to find a village party in the court, had no choice but to get on the carriage of the general and had no choice.
Xu You and Hua Xin are both assistants selected by Jia Xu from their own forces. It is true that Jia Xu is a wise man, but wise man is bound to lose money by making mistakes. He needs some talented assistants to fill in the gaps. His former assistants were Guo Jia and Xun You. Now these two have followed the generals to the south and can only retreat to the second best, allowing Xu and Hua to join.
Jia Xu handed the selected copy of the secret letter to the two of them: "Ziyuan, Ziyu, look at it."
Xu and Hua took it, glanced at him, and they were stunned: "The eight gate captain changed his defense?"
Xu You was very talented and Hua Xin had a keen sense of politics. Combined with the previous information, he was stunned and immediately smelled the crisis.
Hua Xin thought something: "I recently went to court and saw the three dukes and the ministers coming and going in and out with each other, and they had a close relationship. Will it be..."
Xu You was puzzled: "The emperor has just collapsed. The court's actions are obviously aimed at the general. But You are very puzzled. If the queen really issued an imperial edict and issued a tiger talisman, this matter must be agreed by Yang, Zhang, Liu Sangong and Fu Gong. However, the Dukes have always been friendly to the General, and Fu Gong is even more kind. Why did they not stop this time? If the General returns, what are the faces of the Dukes meeting?"
Xu and Hua were not qualified to participate in the election of the crown prince. However, with their wisdom, they could guess that the next emperor would be selected among the princes and kings, but they didn't know who it would be. They didn't know that Jia Xu had sent a secret letter with amazing content. Because they didn't know the ins and outs of the incident, they couldn't understand why the court officials who had greeted each other with a smile turned against each other.
Jia Xu knew it well, but he didn't point it out. He just proposed a possibility and asked the two to deduce it: "If the emperor wants to take advantage of the death of the emperor and the general has not returned, and he has unpredictable intentions for us, how many soldiers do you think they can mobilize?"
Xu You and Hua Xin were both extremely shocked. Has the situation deteriorated to such a situation? Why didn’t they feel anything before?
No matter what, if Jia Xu sets the question, they have to continue.
Hua Xin said first: "In the Eight Passes, there are two passes that are Fu Gong's Northern Army. My Longlang Army cannot move the six passes, and his Northern Army cannot move either. Then there are a thousand Northern Army in Dongguanting. If the queen orders the guards of the passes that the guards of the passes are not allowed to step into Luoyang, Fu Gong will not dare to violate it. In this way, the three thousand Northern Army can be picked out. The only ones that can be really moved are the Southern Army, Hu Ben and Yulin Army, who serve as the guards of the palace city. Let's talk about the Southern Army first. The guards of the Southern Army are Ma Shoucheng, the former general of the West, and he is the brother of the general. Unfortunately, he is still in Xiliang and has not taken office, otherwise he will be able to help. Having said that, the Southern Army has the position of guarding the palace and will never dare to leave his post without permission; Hu Ben and Yulin are restrained by my Longlang Guard... In Xin's view, Luoyang cannot send troops."
Xu You waited for Hua Xin to finish talking, and then said calmly: "If you want to take people, why do you need troops? Just a few cavalrymen."
Hua Xin was suddenly slapped, her face turned red, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
The Tiqi refers to the Jinwu Guard, who can take horses in Luoyang and issue edicts to illegal people. The Jinwu arrests civilians and the officials and officials hold the powerful. These two departments are the organs for legal arrest of people.
Jia Xu smiled. It is true that if you want to take people, just send out a few Jinwu Guards. But of course things will not be that simple. If the balance of power between the two sides cannot reach a balance, how many courage will Fuwan and his gang dare to take action? Not afraid that the Dragon Wolf Army will kill in? So Hua Xin's analysis is also very reasonable. It is precisely because the two sides are equal in strength, restrain each other, and with all kinds of concerns and constraints, that neither of them can use the army. In this way, it is possible for the Jinwu Guard to take action.
Jia Xu smiled and said, "What you both say makes sense and is very thorough. But don't forget that he has Jinwuwei, and I have Silizuo to tie the game again."
Xu and Hua looked at each other, and it really tied again.
At this time, Hua Xin suddenly said, "No, we still have a disadvantage!"
Jia Xu was about to ask, but he saw a report from outside the mansion: "The central palace issued an order to announce Jia Lingjun and Xu Taichang came to see him."
Hua Xin blurted out: "What Xin said is this!"
Their backer is the general, and the general is thousands of miles away; Fuwan and the dukes are the queen, and the queen is close to a thousand steps. If the dukes pretend to be the queen, they only need one decree to save the Tiqi.
Xu You and Hua Xin looked tragic, and this disadvantage was almost irreparable. Think about the two arrogant officials before: former general He Jin and former prime minister Dong Zhuo, wasn't that the only thing that was destroyed? The lesson is not far away, and the lesson is bloody!
Jia Xu's face was gloomy, but he was not panicked, and he only ordered the servants to get something.
Xu,hua saw that the servant brought a slap sized slap, floating lightly and as if nothing was left.
Jia Xu said while dismantling, "This is what the general gave to me before leaving. He stated that if there is a very urgent matter, he can dismantle this secret bag and all the problems should be solved easily. I thought it would not be useful, but I didn't expect... Huh!"
After Jia Xu took out the secret bag, he took out a letter. When he opened it, his face became more and more strange, smiling, surprised and happy. Finally, he closed the book and sighed: "The general is the general, a good method!"
Hua Xin was anxious: "What are the tricks of the general?"
Chapter completed!
