Chapter 1217 Collapse(2/3)
The rebels were gradually compressed into a corner, but few surrendered.
During the last Linya rebellion, all the captured soldiers were exiled to the Far North and narrowly escaped death.
Disloyalty once, disloyalty a hundred times.
This is the thinking of those in power.
If you think about going to the far north to be a slave to the savages, you might as well fight for it.
Arrows were flying, and the two armies that were brothers yesterday were fighting.
All the rebels were killed and they came on horseback.
"The eldest princess ordered us to surrender."
The general turned around and said with a smile: "No more."
The messenger was a chamberlain. He looked at the blood on the general's face. In the firelight, his face looked particularly ferocious.
Tonight, He Lianhong mobilized the last of Lin Ya's forces and caused chaos everywhere in the city.
Changling led 10,000 troops into the city, which shocked the rebels, and the subsequent attack went smoothly.
"Who is in charge of the rebellion?" asked the general.
The chamberlain hesitated for a moment, "He Lianhong, Commander-in-Chief of the Eagle Guard."
Someone once suggested suppressing Helian Hong's identity as a rebel and blaming the incident on the Northern Xinjiang Army.
But Changling refused.
"My father needs justice, the late Emperor needs justice, Your Majesty needs justice, Daliao needs justice."
Cleansing began immediately in the palace.
The Queen Mother heard a commotion in the palace.
"Who is it? Go and ask." She excitedly asked someone to ask.
But no one dared to go.
Whether it is the palace upheaval in the Tang Dynasty or the palace upheaval in the Liao Dynasty, the theme of each time is betrayal and killing.
At this time it is best to just stay where you are and let nature take its course.
"A bunch of idiots!"
The Queen Mother cursed.
She stood inside the palace door, looking forward to it.
"That bitch in Changling wants to seize power. If she succeeds this time, she should be exiled to the far north."
For a woman, being exiled to the Far North is worse than death. This is the case for He Lianrong's family.
The two palace ladies sneered, and one of them said: "The queen mother should be careful with herself!"
The Queen Mother was startled and cursed: "Bitch, I am the Queen Mother of Liao Dynasty, who dares to do something?"
The palace official said: "No matter who initiates the palace coup, His Majesty may be retained, but the Queen Mother is a superfluous variable."
The rebel party only needs a puppet, and the Queen Mother is a gift, but this gift is too troublesome, so it is better to kill her.
When the Queen Mother thought of this, she couldn't help but get excited and turned around and said, "I'm sick."
Everyone reacts differently to despair, but except for a very small number of people, they will all be in chaos on the edge of life and death.
"Someone is coming."
A group of chamberlains armed with weapons came over. The leader entered the main hall. Seeing the Queen Mother lying on the bed, he said, "He Lianhong, the commander of the Eagle Guard, was executed for his rebellion. He is fine now."
Everyone in the palace breathed a sigh of relief, and the Queen Mother also sat up, "Helian Hong?"
The chamberlain glanced at her and said, "The eldest princess is in charge of the overall situation."
The Queen Mother lay down with a thud, "I'm very ill. By the way, what are you doing in front of me?"
The chamberlain gave her a cold look and said, "There's killing people in front."
It's a cleansing night.
Changling is sitting in the palace, and people are being taken away from everywhere in the city.
Officials and generals were dragged out of their homes one after another, desperately begging for mercy.
A sergeant sniffed, "I know this man. He used to look quite majestic, but now he's crying like a child. Why?"
The old soldier beside him smiled and said: "Silly boy, it is not people who are majestic, but power."
For the sake of power, countless people are willing to go through life and death.
I am willing to take my whole family into the abyss.
News kept coming from everywhere, but Changling was in a daze.
"What a joy! The eldest princess." Wang Ju came back with the smell of blood, "Lin Shun's gang members all appeared this time, and after they were all wiped out, the evil atmosphere in the court was completely cleared. From now on, we can devote all our efforts to reform."
Daliao had many problems, and he had wanted to reform them since He Lianfeng came to power. But looking at Lin Ya's party, the emperor's thoughts disappeared.
Innovation will inevitably offend some people. With Lin Ya on your side, the people you offend will become his partisans.
He may even create obstacles for your new policy.
The New Deal of the Southern Zhou Dynasty turned into a joke, and the vested interests were indispensable.
Changling stayed up all night and was still in good spirits.
"yes!"
She also looks forward to the future.
Without any constraints, Daliao will be able to revive again.
During Lin Ya's time, there was a struggle for power in the court. Both parties no longer used talent as the criterion for promotion of officials, but rather loyalty to themselves as the criterion.
"It's time." Changling smiled.
A chamberlain hurriedly walked over to Chang Ling and whispered something.
Changling's expression remained unchanged, but Wang Ju saw a look of sadness in her eyes.
"The eldest princess..." Wang Ju felt a little uneasy.
Changling said: "Your Majesty is no longer able to do anything anymore, so he summoned all the ministers to the palace."
…
When the rebellion broke out, the homes of the ministers were protected by troops sent by Changling, and they were immediately taken into the imperial city.
"He Lianhong is actually Lin Ni's man. No wonder the palace has been unable to kill Lin Ya for many years, hey!"
"Yeah! Who would have thought!"
A chamberlain came in and said, "The eldest princess invites you all to come into the palace."
Not knowing why, everyone followed him into the palace.
All the way to the harem, some people felt uneasy and asked, "Where are we going?"
yes!
Why go to the harem?
Some people have already imagined a scene: the swordsman is squatting on the side, waiting for someone to shout "There is someone treason", and then kills him.
When they saw the emperor's palace, everyone turned pale.
The emperor was lying on the bed, looking quite energetic.
The ministers came in and saluted.
"I have met His Majesty."
"What are they here for?" asked the emperor.
Changling stood on the side and said, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
The little emperor said: "My whole body feels comfortable."
But at the previous moment, the little emperor was in severe pain all over his body.
Changling glanced at the medical officer, who shook his head slightly.
"Does your Majesty have anything to say?" Changling asked.
The emperor shook his head and nodded again, "Mother is behind."
He looked at Changling with a look of longing in his eyes.
Changling said: "Invite the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother was brought in, and when she saw the Emperor's appearance, she said sternly: "Who is it? Who wants to kill my son?"
The emperor smiled and said: "Mother."
