Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1145

   Chapter 1145 Mars in the capital

   For half a year, the capital has been under the strict control of the Southwest Army, which is now the Longwu and Shenwu Guards. In fact, the Southwest Military Government headed by Li Xin replaced the original imperial court.

  The ordinary people in the capital still don’t have much feeling, but the civil and military officials in the court have always been in a state of nervousness.

Fortunately, after Li Xin took over the capital, although the officials of the Southwest Group were grabbing power bit by bit, except for a few of the original officials in the capital, not too many people died in the slaughtering knife of the Southwest Army. Next, after half a year, I am not as nervous as at the beginning.

   Anyway, the emperor above the throne is still the Ji family, and they are all officials. At most, they will lose their positions and go home, and their lives will be safe. This is enough.

   However, these officials can run away, and some people cannot, for example, those with the surname Ji.

Dajin has been in charge of the world for more than 100 years, and clans with the surname Ji spread throughout Dajin, and the clan with the surname Ji in the capital is the largest, with more than 100,000 people. When Li Xin was in the capital, these people hid and trembled, even the door They didn’t dare to come out. Although the imperial court did not take action against them, the sharp blade of the Southwest Army was always hanging over their heads, and it might fall at any time.

   But half a year after the Southwest Army entered the city, Li Xin quietly left Beijing.

  In the backyard of an ordinary house in Liushufang, four or five middle-aged people gathered together.

   One of the middle-aged men in purple stood up and said in a deep voice, “Everyone of the same clan, I received the exact news yesterday that Li Ni has been out of the city for seven or eight days.”

   This middle-aged man, surnamed Ji and named Lin, was the former Grand Governor of the Grand Governor’s Mansion and the Duke of Lu of the Great Jin Dynasty. In terms of generation, he was the same generation as Ji Man, the emperor of Chengde, and was the grandfather of the current emperor of Yankang.

  Because he has been the Grand Governor for many years, Ji Lin’s status in the imperial clan in the capital is quite detached. Apart from the clan elders in the clan, he has the highest status.

   This time, when the Southwest Army entered Beijing, Ji Lin had already made plans to kill him by the neck, but the Southwest Army did not do anything to these clans, just let them go home.

   “This is my last chance, and also Ji’s last chance.”

The Duke of Lu looked at some of the princes and princes in the capital in front of him with a serious expression: “Li Ni Langzi’s ambitions have been revealed, although the emperor in the palace is still my Ji’s family, but he has an important position in the Chinese military, and he has all been taken away. The Southwest is rebellious and controlled, and if this continues, within a year or two at most, the artifact of the Sheji will completely fall into the hands of Li Ni, when the mountains and rivers change their surnames, and the extinct races will be wiped out in an instant!”

   “We are all nobles of Tianhuang. At this time, those foreigners in the court are absolutely unreliable, and we can only rely on ourselves to make a last-ditch effort.”

Another older clan was Zheng Guogong of Dajin. He sighed and shook his head with a wry smile: “It’s natural to give it a try, but you also said that all important positions in the court and Chinese military are in Li Ni’s hands, including The Three Imperial Guards, the City Defense Army, and even the Jinwu Guard Jingzhao Mansion are all traitors to the southwest. There are Longwu Guards in the capital, and Shenwu Guards outside the city. The Imperial Guards are no longer in the hands of the imperial court. If you want to fight, there is no way to fight.”

At the beginning of the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, there were many times of chaos in the clan, so the clan was left largely idle, except for the positions similar to the Zongzheng of the clan and the governor of the Great Governor’s Office, which had to be handed over to the family, other positions There are very few Ji family members other than the prince to take care of them, so although these imperial families in the capital are all rich and have extensive contacts, they do not have much authority in their hands.

   Even if there was, it was taken away by Li Xin when he entered the city.

   Ji Lin’s face was low, and he said coldly, “At this time, I can’t resist Li Ni from the front, but as long as I can kill the first evil, there is still a chance to turn the tables.”

“Li Ni left the capital this time, and took his only son with him. As long as I can kill these two people, Li Ni’s lineage will be broken, and there will be chaos within the southwest rebels. Except for the so-called Longwuwei Shenwuwei, most of the others are still members of the imperial court, so as long as we get in touch with the Imperial Guard and the old part of the Hanzhong Army Ankang Army, we will have a chance to make a comeback!”

   “The Southwest Army is not monolithic. Without Li Ni, they might kill each other!”

   Ji Lin was a former governor after all. Although his ability was not very high, he was well organized.

   He gritted his teeth fiercely: “Even if the capital is beaten to scorched earth and we rebuild it from scratch, it will be better than falling into the hands of traitors.”

The people who could be called here by Ji Lin to discuss are all the prominent figures in the imperial clan in the capital, and they have some power in their hands. Hearing this, a middle-aged man in his thirties stood up and said, “What the governor said. That’s right, I’d rather die than die.”

   “It’s just… **** Li Ni, it’s a problem.”

   Ji Lin took a deep breath and took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve. He unfolded the white paper and saw three or four lines of words written on it, and at the end… it was covered with the seal of the emperor.

   “This is the gunpowder recipe that the emperor secretly summoned me into the palace before the rebels came to Beijing. I have already made some in the vicinity of Gyeonggi in the past few months.”

   “Everyone in the palace must have some die-hard loyalists, and they will all be handed over to me to coordinate. I will arrange the assassination of Li Ni. You will find a way to contact some loyal ministers and righteous people in Beijing to cooperate with me.”

With that said, Ji Lin glanced at these clans and said, “Everyone also write down this recipe, if our case is successful, if it fails, you will spread this recipe… world!”

The former Grand Governor gritted his teeth fiercely and said angrily: “I can’t let Li Thief steal the divine weapon with this ingenious thing, even if I can’t win him, after he usurped the throne, there will still be countless loyal ministers and righteous people in the world. With this recipe, Li Thief can be smashed into tens of thousands of pieces!”

  This recipe for gunpowder was given to Ji Lin by Emperor Yuan Zhao, and it was also the work of Emperor Yuan Zhao for several years. Although it is not as good as the gunpowder recipe in the southwest, it already looks seven or eight.

If    is really spread all over the world, the huge “technical advantage” of the Southwest Army will not be so obvious.

   After hearing the words, these clans immediately got up and said, “Listen to the command of the great governor!”

   “Kill Li Ni!”

   “Kill the charcoal thieves!”

  …………

   Several clans colluded in Liushufang in the evening. At night, the news was sent to Zhao Jia’s desk. Zhao Jia stared at the information, and then a bright smile appeared on his face.

   “Go and invite the two generals, Longwuwei and Shenwuwei, to visit the mansion for a chat.”

The three of them were all living in Yonglefang at the moment, and soon the other two had arrived. Zhao Jia put this information on the table and said with a smile, “Those Ji’s clans are not very honest, and today they take advantage of the fact that they are not very honest. The opportunity to make a birthday, Ji Lin Ji Tu and others gathered together, although I don’t know what they are discussing, but…”

   “It must be something bad for me.”

Mu Ying frowned slightly and groaned: “I said a long time ago that I would arrest all of these people. Most of the governors were kind and didn’t touch them. These people dare to be dishonest. Don’t worry, sir, I will arrest them and throw them in the big jail. Go, wait for the Governor to come back!”

   Zhao Jia smiled without saying a word.

   Li Shuo raised his head slightly and said softly, “If it was such a trivial matter, Zhao Xiang wouldn’t call us both over.”

  Mu Ying had already stood up, and after hearing the words, he had also figured out some flavors. He frowned and said, “Sir, do you want them to make trouble?”

   Zhao Jia laughed and said, “If these people want to make a comeback, they will most likely assassinate the Grand Governor or attack the Marquis of Jing’an. Aren’t I just worried that I won’t have a reason to attack them?”

   Mu Ying frowned.

   “But this matter can’t be hidden from the Governor. Even if we hide it, most of the Anbu under the Governor’s command will be able to find out. We pretend not to know, and we are going to take the blame from the Governor.”

   “Besides, in case these people really hurt the Great Governor…”

   The right servant of the minister smiled and said, “Of course you can’t pretend you don’t know. We sent a letter to the governor saying that someone might assassinate him. Let the governor be careful.”

   “We don’t have to do other things, just watch it quietly.”

   Zhao Jia’s meaning is very simple, this little flame in the capital could have been easily knocked out, but they just wanted to watch him ignite.

   The bigger the burn, the better.

   said, Zhao Jia looked at Li Shuo and said with a smile, “What does General Li mean?”

  Li Shuo is Li Xin’s younger brother, of course he had to ask his opinion on this kind of thing.

  Li Shuo bowed his head slightly and said solemnly, “As long as the Grand Governor is safe, everything will be arranged by Prime Minister Zhao.”

   Prime Minister Zhao laughed.

   “So, I’ll wait and see how the Ji family jumps.”
