Chapter 403 Rebellion! Rebellion! Rebellion!
Zhou An sent Bai Xiaokui away.
He just gave it to the Ganli Palace, but it was not too far away. Because it was inconvenient, Zhou An was still "repaying his wounds". Although the inner court was trustworthy and the four guards of the inner court were also trustworthy, the less he knew when he was recovering, the better, so as not to be unintentionally leaked the news.
Bai Xiaokui is gone.
Zhou An felt a little empty.
afternoon.
After seeing Bai Xiaokui off, Zhou An prepared for a while and left the palace! He did not hide. He left the palace under the escort of the Five Hundred Shen Ce Army. He sat in a sedan chair and slowly arrived at the Dongchang Yamen and carried it directly in.
Deliberately "parking" is of course an act.
Zhou An deliberately performed the feeling of "I'm fine, I'm still capable, but in fact I can't do it anymore, I'm forced to work." He used to ride a horse, but this time he was sitting in a sedan chair.
After entering the East Factory, Zhou An continued to perform.
I was helped out of the sedan chair and walked very slowly, with a weird face, a bland step, and I always coughed.
When it comes to acting, Zhou An always believes in doing the whole set of acting, so he does this.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, it was the end of February.
In less than ten days, several major events occurred in the Donggan Dynasty. On the third day after Bai Xiaokui left, a "plague" broke out in Pizhou, southeast of Donggan.
In a remote place in Pizhou, a place called Tongkou County, hundreds of people were seriously ill overnight. By the afternoon of the next day, the number of people seriously ill increased to hundreds and dozens of people died.
Immediately afterwards, a sect of the world called "Taipingdao" emerged and gave alms to the poor who were infected with the plague to save lives and help the wounded. Rumors about "the emperor is unkind and the gods are punished by gods" were quickly spread in the local area.
People's chaos arises suddenly!
When the local secret detectives noticed that this was a rebellion plot and sent the news to the capital as quickly as possible, the Tongkou County Government had been burned, and the civil unrest was irreversible!
The Taiping Gate rebelled openly!
Just one day later, Wu Xukuan's eldest son, General Anyuan, and Sazhou guard general Wu Chonglie took the title of "clearing the monarch" and rebelled openly, controlling the entire Sazhou area in just one day!
Wu Xukuan's third son, General Pingnan, Wu Chongxuan, general of Jingmen Pass, killed the eunuch of the Jingmen Pass, and took the title of "clearing the king's side" and rebelled openly!
Jingmen Pass is located in the southernmost part of Jiangzhou, and further south is Jingzhou. It can be said that Jingmen Pass is the gateway to the north through Jingzhou. On the day Wu Chongxuan rebelled, there were military mutiny in the three counties in the northern part of Jingzhou, and the prefects of the three counties were killed!
Wu Chongxuan quickly controlled about one-third of Jingzhou.
Three days later.
"King Haishun", one of the six major vassal kings, killed the "minister of the country" and announced that he would "clean the monarch"!
Each vassal kingdom has a "restrained minister" sent by the court, who is said to assist in governing the vassal kingdom, but in fact it is surveillance, but it has long been unable to play a role in surveillance, and it is a symbolic figure.
King Haishun is a member of the royal family. The first king Haishun was granted a hundred and sixty years ago. His fief was in the "land of Izumo" in the west of Donggan. To be precise, he was in Shanzhou, which is more southerly in the west of Donggan!
Shanzhou has a very unique terrain. It is a state in Donggan's "southmost" and a peninsula. The area of the state is very large and can catch up with half of the Central State. However, because half of the state is mountainous, the population is not too large, mainly fishermen.
No one expected that King Haishun would be the first to rebel among the six vassal kings. Perhaps because the easy-to-defense and difficult-to-attack terrain in Shanzhou gave King Haishun confidence, or perhaps for other reasons, maybe the six vassal kings had already secretly contacted him.
So he turned the other way!
...
February 29th, morning court.
Zhou An still didn't go to court, just hid in the side hall and listened.
The morning court this day was a big fuss. It was not just a series of rebellions, but also a big event happened yesterday! That is, the army of the Five Prefectures was defeated! In a main confrontation, they lost to the rebel army of the Pure Land Sect!
Who knows how he lost!
Because the detailed war report was sent to the Empress's case, the court could get the news that it was sent by the East Factory!
Just preliminary news!
If I lost to the Pure Land Buddhism a while ago, it would be understandable. After all, the food and grass were burned at that time, but now it is different. The supply food and grass are being sent over continuously, and the food crisis of the Five Prefectures Army has been gradually lifted.
It's not a problem of not having enough food!
The defeat was very bizarre!
The preliminary information from the East Factory only mentioned that the Five Prefectures Army was ambushed! It was caught off guard! The location was in Heixiong Ridge in southern Yuezhou.
The quarrel never ended from the morning court to the end of the morning court at noon and morning court.
Someone suggested that Hu Yanjin be dismissed from office on the spot and escorted back to Beijing! The war was unfavorable. As the head coach of the Five Prefectures Army, he was the first to bear the blame! He wanted to deal with him directly!
This proposal was opposed by many people, and the replacement of generals at the last battle was not conducive to the morale of the army.
After all, it was just a failure, not a complete defeat.
There is also the issue of whether King Haishun is talking about whether to fight! Although King Haishun has killed the minister of the governor, he has only killed this person. He did not send troops to fight anyone, but just shouted "Clean the king's side".
Therefore, some old ministers hope to send people to persuade "King Haishun". As long as "King Haishun" can admit their mistakes and accept new ministers of the state, the court will not blame them.
This proposal has also been opposed.
The vassal kings rebelled openly, and the court compromised. Want to "discuss peace"? Is the court shameless? Is the empress shameless?
Noisy, noisy!
In fact, the biggest problem at present is not the Taiping Sect that rebelled later, Wu Chonglie, Wu Chongxuan, and King Haishun! Compared with the rebellion in the Five Prefectures, they are all "small problems"!
Although Taiping Gate is one of the three major demon sects, strong is strong, and has just done something in the capital, they have been hiding for too long and have no folk foundation. They have begun to rebel, and they have to do it step by step, without the power of the Pure Land Sect.
The two brothers Wu Chonglie and Wu Chongxuan were tied together, and their territory was not very large.
King Haishun just quarreled! He killed a minister of the state!
In fact, it is a very serious matter when viewed alone, but compared with the five states, the trouble level is not the same level! That is the place of the five states! Although they are all small states, they are also five states, and they also involve the strong and super rich King Yunsu!
If the rebellion in the Five Prefectures is not resolved and allowed to continue to develop, it is likely that the entire southwest part of Dongqian will fall into chaos.
That is what shakes Dongqian’s foundation!
The civil and military officials of the dynasty did not know that the empress sent the Virtue Virtue Virtue to solve the problem of the Southwest Pure Land Buddhism!
In fact, even if they know, they will still make noise. On the question of whether the Virgin Land of Pure Land is reliable, they have to say the previous question. And, more importantly, the Virgin Land of Pure Land has not solved the troubles in the southwest so far!
After the scattered dynasty.
The empress returns to the palace.
As soon as he entered the inner court, Zhou An appeared beside the empress.
Chapter completed!
