Chapter 122: Governor of Jiucheng Citizen

Wang Xunfu did not just lead the eight thousand Xuanwu elites to the palace. He knew that if he led his troops to attack the palace rashly, he would definitely be called a rebellious person.

Therefore, Wang Xunfu contacted the ministers in the court and all the lords in Beijing.

The intimate handwriting of the Queen Wang told all officials that the emperor's life and death were unknown, and the eldest prince was framed and expelled from the capital. The Ai family had never seen the emperor for dozens of days, and was blocked by Feng Tao every time. The Ai family was afraid that the eunuchs would disrupt the government and secretly ordered the Xuanwu Guard to lurk in the capital to prevent accidents. Therefore, they asked all loyal ministers and Xuanwu Guard to enter the palace to serve the king.

The Lord and Minister, who were good friends with Wang Xunfu, took the guards with the Xuanwu Guard without any hesitation after seeing the handwritten instructions of Queen Wang.

Wang Xunfu's team continued to grow along the way.

Ning Fei's faction, who had always been in the wrong direction with Wang Xunfu, initially learned that Wang Xunfu led eight thousand Xuanwu elites to the palace and was extremely surprised. When did so many Xuanwu Guards enter the city? There was no news at all?

However, after reading Queen Wang's intimate handwritten instructions, he felt relieved and had to admire Queen Wang's foresight. It was also because the eldest prince was demoted from the capital. Ning Zheng led a group of ministers to see Emperor Xiaozong, hoping to take back Cheng's life, but Feng Tao was blocked back.

What is a castrator?

The Celestial Dynasty had such a thing. The chief eunuch in the palace colluded with the Grand Marshal of the World to rebel and even held the emperor hostage at that time. If it weren't for the Jinyi Martial Army who rescued the emperor at the cost of annihilation of the entire army, then the Celestial Dynasty would have changed its surname long ago.

Not only because of this, ministers are afraid of eunuchs, but there is another reason, that is, the eunuchs’ documents, political views, and practical practices are not worse than those of civil servants. Why do civil servants study hard for ten years? It’s just a list of famous titles, and then they are thinking about how to improve their reputation and get promoted, and they completely lack practical ability.

But the eunuchs in the palace are different. They are all real. The palace is operating like a small court. Therefore, many eunuchs trained in the palace book hall are made from the lowest level. They can be the leader of the company and their practical processing capabilities are definitely not weak.

In this regard, there is a vague trend of surpassing civil officials in the foreign court, and some eunuchs have been released as officials. Therefore, civil officials are also wary of suppressing eunuchs everywhere. However, there are also many practical officials among civil officials, such as Liu Rui, the Minister of Justice.

In response, Ning Zheng thought about this and contacted his own sect to join Wang Xunfu's team.

For a time, the number of people grew from the first eight thousand to 40,000 to 50,000, and the number continued to increase.

After receiving the report from the patrol team, the military governor Hong Nanzhong was a little surprised. Eight thousand Xuanwu Guards? Why didn’t he hear so many people come into the city? And it was the Duke of Wei who personally led the team to the palace.

Hong Nanzhong, who was stunned, suddenly fell into deep thought. What he thought was not how to prevent the Duke of Defense from taking any actions, but whether to join the Duke of Defense.

The civil governor on the side slapped the table where the official documents were handled with one palm, and shouted with anger: "Why are you stunned? The eight thousand Xuanwu Guards didn't know that they entered the city. They immediately asked the brothers Miao Dafang to lead the war soldiers to block all the city gates and prevent anyone from entering and leaving."

Hong Nanzhong, who woke up from the sound, was happy: Guo Zicheng is really good at being a human being, so it is difficult for other troops to enter the city, and there is only one opponent left by Duke Wei.

However, not long after the Hongnan Center was secretly happy, Guo Zicheng said again: "Immediately, please inform the young marquis that the Duke of Wei was not sure of the intention of leading the army to invade the palace. I hope the young marquis quickly enter the palace to guard the palace."

Guo Zicheng never admitted that Yan Yushu was the governor of the Nine City, so he called him the little marquis. After all, the governor of the Nine City must be able to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and to control the people's livelihood. Yan Yushu only has the ability to kill the enemy and command the army, but does not have the ability to handle internal affairs practically.

"Gather all the personnel of the Nine City Military Affairs Office to prevent some illegal people from taking advantage of the situation and invading civilian merchants at this time."

"Brother Guo, is this appropriate?" Hong Nanzhong immediately heard of his vigilance against Duke Wei in Guo Zicheng's order. Although he did not say it clearly, he had already beaten Duke Wei directly to the unjust ranks.

Guo Zicheng was a county magistrate in his early years. Because the county was snatched by horse thieves, he even abandoned his civil servants and joined the army. After more than ten years, he was promoted to the Governor of the Nine City Military and Martial Arts and Civil Affairs. He had no doubts about his talent, was very capable, and was also very sensitive to certain things.

Instead of responding to Hong Nanzhong's words immediately, he shouted at the people below: "What are you still standing there? Go quickly, I'll take your head one step later."

Then he turned his head and looked at Hong Nanzhong and said, "Brother Hong? You are very close to Lord Wang of the Minister of Works, so I will deal with these things. If something bad happens, you have nothing to do with you, Brother Hong."

After hearing Guo Zicheng's words, Hong Nanzhong swallowed.

Lord Wang, the Minister of Works, was naturally Wang Jieliang, the youngest son of Duke Wei.

The Governor of the Nine City Military and Horses and Situation was the same. If Hong Nanzhong had not been guilty, he could have refuted Guo Zicheng. However, at this time he said, "Haha, Brother Guo is still thoughtful." Finally, he left the Nine City Office in shame.

Looking at Hong Nanzhong leaving, Guo Zicheng cursed inwardly, "Dog thing, you know what you know."

Suddenly, Guo Zicheng took off his official uniform and exposed a close-fitting chain mail inside.

No one knows how many years this civil governor has been wearing official uniforms outside and armor inside, perhaps only he himself knows.

After showing off his armor, Guo Zicheng said to his confidants: "Let Miao Dafang leave me two thousand war soldiers, I want to go to the palace to maintain order."

After hearing this, his subordinates were a little surprised and said in confusion: "Sir, are you too worried? There are bloody battles in the palace to guard the eight directions, and have you notified the little marquis to come over?"

"Hmph, bloody battles in all directions? The emperor can't believe them. How can I trust them? It's better to go there personally to be at ease, otherwise I will be a lie." Guo Zicheng looked stern.

The reason why the bloody battles in all directions were not trusted by Guo Zicheng was mostly due to the influence of Emperor Xiaozong.

Because Emperor Xiaozong did not fight bloody battles with all soldiers and soldiers, they were all completely in name only. In comparison, Guo Zicheng still trusted Yan Yushu. After all, the young marquis, Emperor Xiaozong, personally appointed him as the governor of the Nine City Military and Horses. Some time ago, he also served as the commander of the new army. Undoubtedly, Emperor Xiaozong completely trusted Yan Yushu, so Guo Zicheng also believed it.

This is the so-called imperial party. It believes that what the emperor said is right, and even if it is wrong, it is just an occasional omission.
