Chapter 332 It was such a
coincidence that Wang Yue knew Wang Anshi's body, but he could still live for a long time. It was very easy to survive the death of two emperors. Regarding the reform, he could take his time and he was not in a hurry.
So on the way north, Wang Yue was in a good mood. He traveled all the way and had a picnic from time to time.
Wang Anshi looked at the leisurely Wang Yue and felt helpless. He also knew that Wang Yue might want to use this method to remind him not to rush about reform, especially now that the situation in Tokyo is very chaotic and requires a calm mind to deal with it. .
Wang Anshi regretted it now, even a little ashamed. He originally dragged Wang Yue out of the Hanlin Academy and went to Fujian together in order to get rid of the chaos in the capital.
I have only been working for a year and a half now, and I am back again. I don’t know how long I will stay in Tokyo, let alone whether I can escape this dispute.
When Wang Yue and his party passed by Suzhou, they stayed in Suzhou for two days and stayed with Wang's father and mother for two days. They left Minglan and Xiao Tuantuan to accompany the two elders and immediately went north again.
When passing by Yuzhou, Yuzhou regiment coach Zhao Zongshi and his eldest son Zhao Ceying came out from a distance to greet him, along with Gu Tingye.
Wang Yue knew that the group of them greeted Wang Anshi, and the only person who truly greeted him was Gu Tingye.
The group of people chatted on the official road for a while, and Zhao Zongshi led the way, leading Wang Anshi and his group toward the inn.
When passing through a dense forest, Daniel suddenly rushed forward on horseback and stood in front of everyone, stopping the team from moving forward.
Zhao Zongshi and Wang Anshi were both very suspicious and didn't understand why Wang Yue's entourage suddenly showed up. However, they were both calm people and were silent at the moment, waiting for Daniel to speak.
Without letting everyone wait for a long time, Da Niu spoke first, but he was not talking to everyone, but shouted angrily into the woods, "Why don't you, Fang Xiaoxiao, not show up quickly?" Gu Tingye and Zhao Ceying were worried in their hearts
. They were surprised to find that they had been assassinated several times. They quickly went to protect Zhao Zongshi on both sides to prevent Zhao Zongshi from being hurt.
Wang Yue asked the guards to protect the whole group of people in the middle, while he rode his horse forward, stood together with Da Niu, and looked at the dense forest with a prepared look.
It's just that the people lurking opposite were very calm. After a while, they didn't mean to make a sound, as if they thought Daniel was coaxing them.
Wang Yue sneered disdainfully, took off the longbow from his horse, pulled out an arrow, and shot an arrow into the forest.
The arrow shot through the air and penetrated into the dense forest in the blink of an eye. Almost at the same time, a painful scream came from the forest, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The people ambush in the forest also reacted at this time, and their traces were really exposed. It's just that this group of people seemed to have come with an order. Seeing that the raid failed, they immediately changed to a violent attack.
However, although the number of people in this ambush was relatively large, they were no match for Wang Yue and Daniu. Without Wang Yue's guards taking action, Wang Yue and the two of them killed all the dozens of people who made a sneak attack.
Wang Yue's men and Gu Tingye had long been accustomed to Wang Yue's abnormal martial arts, and they just watched the two men's performances enthusiastically.
Zhao Zongshi and his son almost stared out of their eyes, and Wang Anshi even pulled out a few strands of his beard. The scene in front of them somewhat subverted their understanding.
When most people are assassinated, most of the time the owner retreats and the guards step forward to resist. It is rare to see Wang Yue like this, letting the guards wait behind and rushing forward to resolve the battle himself.
This fighting method is just like fighting in front of the battle. It looks very passionate and boosts morale. This is just like the difference between the leader shouting to charge me during a battle and the leader calling me to charge him.
Even Zhao Zongshi's subordinates were all experienced in the military. When they looked at Wang Yue and Daniu, they felt incredible and a little eager in their expressions. After all, the military admired the strong.
After everything settled, Zhao Zongshi discovered that all those people had been killed. He looked at Wang Yue with some curiosity and asked in a deep voice, "Wang Tanhua, why didn't you leave one alive?"
Wang Yue was very polite to the future emperor. He bowed his hands and said with a smile, "The skills of these men in black are somewhat similar to the ones Zhong Huai and I saw in Tokyo. It should be the people of the two princes in the capital. It doesn't matter whether they are kept alive or not."
Zhao Zongshi nodded and understood what Wang Yue meant. In this situation, keeping evidence will only lead to a stronger attack. He Not wanting to be in trouble, he said with a smile, "That was the time Zhong Huai saved his wife, right?"
Wang Yue glanced at Gu Tingye, and then said in a deep voice, "Yes, the two of them were destined to be together. At that time We were accompanying a group of female relatives and brought quite a lot of guards. It happened that one of the guards saw the group of men in black. Prompted by Zhonghuai's chivalrous heart, we went there." Gu Tingye also said with a smile at this time,
" I was just protecting the sedan, mainly because of Wang Yue, but he was already engaged to his sister-in-law, so I was afraid of getting into trouble."
Everyone laughed when they heard this tidbit of news, and the depressing atmosphere that had just been assassinated changed in an instant. Without a trace.
After this assassination, Wang Yue and his party no longer stayed at the inn, but were directly invited by Zhao Tuanlian to stay at his house temporarily.
Zhao Tuanlian and Wang Anshi chatted animatedly, while Zhao Tuanlian's eldest son followed Wang Si like a little fanboy.
Gu Tingye and Wang Yue followed behind without disturbing the three people in front. Gu Tingye looked around and then asked, "You are so well-informed. Did you have a plan for this time? Are you here specifically to save people?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "I said it was such a coincidence, do you believe it?"
Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue for a while, and then said, "Am I that naive?"
Wang Yue was speechless, he was depressed Said, "Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway."
Wang Yue and his party stayed in Yuzhou for another two days. I don't know what Wang Anshi and Zhao Zongshi and his son talked about. When they set off again, Zhao Zongshi and his son also took them with them. A group of soldiers and horses acted as escorts to escort the group to Tokyo.
When the group arrived outside Tokyo, the family members of Zhao Zongshi and his son stayed with Gu Tingye temporarily in a secret place of Gu Tingye's.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi did not stay any longer. They rushed into the city with some soldiers sent by Zhao Zongshi.
There were no outsiders at this moment, and Wang Yue asked doubtfully, "Uncle, why are Zhao Zongshi and his son allowed to leave Yuzhou at this time? In this case, their situation will be very dangerous." Wang Anshi rolled his eyes
. He said with some helplessness, "We have saved Zhao Zongshi and his son, and have offended the two princes in Beijing, and now they are inseparable from each other. Furthermore, now they dare to assassinate the clan blatantly, which illustrates the struggle for the reserve position in Beijing. , I have fought to the extreme, and the official's body may fail at any time."
After hearing this, the prince nodded. Neither of the two princes in the capital seemed to be a man of great courage. He wanted to live in the Song Dynasty. To help Wang Anshi realize his dream, he had to make a choice.
After Wang Yue and Wang Anshi entered the city, they rushed straight to the imperial city. It turned out that there were very few people in the lively streets. Anyone who wanted to come to Beijing knew that it was not peaceful recently, and everyone closed their doors tightly. Don't go out if necessary.
What made Wang Yue strange was that when Wang Yue and Wang Anshi rushed to the gate of the imperial city, the gate was already closed. No matter how Wang Anshi and Wang Yue called the door, no one opened it.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi looked at each other. They both knew that something might have happened in the imperial city, so they quickly returned to their horses to avoid it and made a decision after understanding the situation.
However, Wang Yue and Wang Anshi had just taken a few steps with their guards when a group of people rushed out of Huangcheng and rushed towards them.
Wang Yue saw that these people came with bad intentions, and felt that they must be intercepting him and Wang Anshi, so he immediately became on guard. He thought that at the gate of the imperial city, these people did not dare to do anything to him. The situation in the palace was unknown now, so it happened that You can come up with some words.
What Wang Yue didn't expect was that after the group of people came out, they drew their sabers and rushed towards Wang Yue.
Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. Whose subordinate was this? How could he be so stupid? He didn't say anything, and signaled the accompanying guards to quickly deal with the group of people. He didn't dare to stay here any longer, so he took Wang Anshi and left quickly. .
After walking a little further, Wang Anshi sighed and said, "It seems that the situation in the palace is very bad." Wang Yue
nodded to Da Niu. Da Niu understood what Wang Yue meant and immediately disappeared with a few guards. .
Wang Yue looked at the group of Zhao Zongshi's soldiers, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Let's go to Youjian Inn in front and wait. After Daniel inquires about the news, we will make a decision." Wang Anshi also knew that he could
only That's it, he nodded, and together with Wang Yue, he took the remaining guards to an inn in the city. The two of them analyzed the current situation while waiting for news from Dahu.
Not long after, a familiar face among the guards who followed Daniel came back and reported the situation of the rebellion to Wang Yue and the others.
Wang Yue and Wang Anshi came to such a conclusion based on this information.
It seems that King Gun lost to King Yong in this battle. The official family not only appointed King Yong as the prince, but also appeased the clan members to obey the new emperor, which made King Gun feel that there was no hope. He felt that he would be tricked by King Yong in the future. Rather than die, it is better to take a desperate risk, maybe there is still a way to survive.
Concubine Rong's family had a lot of troops, and because of Gu Tingye, the Rong family didn't seem to take sides. This made King Gun think that the Rong family might be interested in Zhao Zongshi, so he sent people to assassinate Zhao Zongshi while taking advantage of the Rong family's control. When the troops and horses changed defense, the mutiny was launched.
Although King Gun had been plotting for a long time, he still didn't have many soldiers. In the city of Tokyo, which is a large city in Nuozhou, it is actually very inconspicuous, but many people choose to be Bishangguan. After all, the royal affairs have nothing to do with them, so they were given a chance.
Not long after, Dahu and his party came to the inn, guarding a palace maid.
The palace maid looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old. After entering the room, she saw Wang Yue and Wang Anshi wearing official robes, and quickly asked, "I wonder who you two are?"
Wang Yue glanced at the cautious person. The palace maid smiled and said, "I am Wang Yue, the magistrate of Quanzhou, and this is Wang Anshi, the magistrate of Fujian Road. We came to Beijing to report on our duties under the emperor's order. But just now we couldn't open the door at the palace gate, so we arranged for guards to check."
The maid raised her head and glanced at Wang Yue. She seemed to have seen Wang Yue. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that Wang Tanhua and Gu Shizi are very close. There is something here that I need you to pass to Gu Erlang."
