Yao Da's heart skipped a beat when he heard the names announced by King Xin Zhao Zhen one by one. These eight people were the important subordinates currently assigned by King Xin Zhao Zhen to be stationed in various places in the south. King Xin Zhao Zhen summoned them all to Jiangling this time.

I'm afraid he is about to make a big move. But Yao Da is very smart. When he shouldn't talk too much, he naturally won't say anything more. Instead, he bowed his hands and shouted in a deep voice: "I obey your order. I obey your order."

Yao Da accepted the order and retreated, but Xin Wang Zhao Zhen did not continue to deal with government affairs as usual. Instead, he threw all government affairs aside, turned around and walked to the map hanging in the study. It was not Xin Wang Zhao Zhen who started a battle with Liu Guang.

A decision made on a whim, after half a month of silence, King Xin Zhao Zhen has completely controlled the Nanjun Village and Jiangling Mansion in his own hands, whether it is the wandering soldiers from the Northern Qi Dynasty in the north or the

The Southern Barbarians in the south were also pacified by King Xin Zhao Zhen. With Yang Zaixing and Wu Jie joining forces and using both soft and hard tactics, those Southern Barbarians have also surrendered to King Xin Zhao Zhen. Now, the Zhao family's army in the south, under the personal leadership of King Xin Zhao Zhen, has sufficient food and supplies.

It's time to use troops.

However, starting a war is not a simple matter. The current situation in the world is complicated and intertwined, and the whole body is affected by one move. If Xin Wang Zhao Zhen and Liu Guang officially start a war, it will not only be a matter between Xin Wang Zhao Zhen and Liu Guang. Xia

Cheng will definitely not sit back and watch, and if Xia Cheng makes a move, Peng You will also make a move, and even Fan Ruwei on Fujian Road will not remain silent. Therefore, King Xin Zhao Zhen must think carefully about the move of troops this time.

, just make a complete plan.

Just when Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was discussing with his cronies to launch troops against Liu Guang, on the other side of Jiangling City, some Jiangling ministers were gathering at the Zhang Shun Mansion, where Tongpan was to be appointed. Discussions were taking place in the inner courtyard of Tongpan's Mansion.

In the hall, these ministers, who were usually aloof but had all been deprived of their power by King Xin Zhao Zhen, all had sad faces. You looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't know how to speak.

Looking at the silent crowd, Zhang Shun, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help but sigh secretly. Now that Zhao Yan is so powerful, the power in the hands of officials and ministers like them has been almost completely deprived. Even Zhang Shun himself has already

The demoted generals are all in name only, not to mention soldiers and horses. Except for Zhang Shun's own soldiers, Zhang Shun is afraid that he can't even mobilize a single soldier in Jiangling City. The power of Jiangling officials

, had long been divided up by the generals arranged by King Xin Zhao Zhen under Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun’s current general judge is just an empty frame. Special Forces Time Travel: The Prince of the Song Dynasty 485

Thinking of his own misery, Zhang Shun couldn't help but turn his head and look at his friend Zhong Pan sitting in the corner. Although he was ignored, he still maintained his reputation as a high official in the imperial court. Zhong Pan was much worse than himself.

Well, Zhong Pan said that he had a way to deal with King Xin Zhao Zhen, but before he could see how Zhong Pan would act, the "rebellion" in the southern military camp broke out. Then Zhao Yan reported to His Majesty, and for some inexplicable reasons, Zhong Pan was killed.

He was removed from the position of a high-ranking official and was given a false position. Since then, Zhong Pan has been in a state of decline. If Zhang Shun had not personally invited him as an old friend this time, I am afraid that Zhong Pan would not have come to judge.

The mansion.

As for Jiangling's old ministers, almost all of them ended up like this. All their positions of real power were occupied by the followers of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen. Now even if Zhang Shun wanted to deal with Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, he might be powerless.

With a long sigh, Zhang Shun finally broke the deadlock and said to everyone: "Everyone, Zhao Yan is more vicious than that Jin man. Now he is playing tricks on the government. We and other loyal ministers of the Song Dynasty have been devouring Song Lu for a long time, but they are unable to do anything for the Song Dynasty.

Although they were loyal, all of them were deprived of the right to work for the benefit of the Song Dynasty. It is really unfortunate for the Song Dynasty. You are all veterans of the Song Dynasty. Do you have any strategies to save the Song Dynasty from danger? Give the world a clear and bright future?"

"This..." Zhang Shun asked, and everyone present was speechless for a while. They looked at each other a few times, and everyone turned their heads and kept silent. The cowardly appearance of these people made Zhang Shun furious.

, but it’s hard to get angry. It’s not easy to gather all these people who have no good impressions of Zhao Yan. If they are scolded and run away again, it will be even more troublesome to deal with Zhao Yan.

"Lord Zhong." At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and a man stood up and bowed to Zhang Shun. It was Xue Ping, the eldest son of Lord Xue, the former Presidential Economic and Strategic Envoy of the Guiyang Army.

When Xin Wang Zhao Zhen entered Jiangling, Xue Ping was still the commander of one party, but how could Xin Wang Zhao Zhen treat such an important

One of his positions was left to his enemy? A few months ago, he found an excuse to beat Xue Ping to the end. If Xue Ping hadn't been killed because of his father's identity, I'm afraid some people would be cold-blooded. I'm afraid Xue Wang Zhao Zhen would have been killed long ago.

Kill him. Now Xue Ping is just an idle petty official in Jiangling City, without any real power at all.

Immediately, after Xue Ping saluted Zhang Shun, he turned around and glanced at everyone, and then said: "Everyone, the national crisis is at the forefront, and half of the country is lost. That Zhao Yan did not want to serve the country, but gathered people to rebel. After he rebelled,

Your Majesty is so kind to you that you can be at peace with him.

, was given the official position of Jiedushi. But this servant of Zhao Yan deceived his master, named Song minister, but he was actually a Song thief. We are all Song ministers, and we have been living in Song Dynasty for a long time. Now that the country is in crisis, can you

Can't you step forward and offer your suggestions to get rid of the national traitors?"

Although someone responded, Zhang Shun was not very happy. This Xue Ping was so eager to get rid of Zhao Yan. Of course, Zhang Shun knew the reason. It was not about serving the country or the king, but simply doing it for his father.

Revenge. This idea that involves personal revenge is very undesirable in Zhang Shun's opinion.

After all, he himself is trying to regain power, and dealing with Zhao Yan is also to seize power. If something unexpected happens, at least he can save his life. And for such a person with a personal grudge, I am afraid that he will be stupid and reckless, and I am afraid that with such a person

Cooperation will ruin the big thing sooner or later. But Zhang Shun has no choice now. As Zhao Yan's power in Jiangling grows, there are fewer and fewer people on Zhang Shun's side. In desperation, Zhang Shun finally

I will also invite Xue Ping to discuss it together.

The people who can still come to accept Zhang Shun's invitation at this time are more or less because they have been excluded and really want to get rid of Zhao Yan. Now that Xue Ping is taking the lead, these people's emotions are more or less aroused.

.

When Xue Ping saw this situation, he quickly winked at the person next to him. When the person saw it, he stood up immediately. It was Zhong Zhaoxuan. Zhong Zhaoxuan was a descendant of the Zhong family, and his ancestor was also a great scholar.

Song Chongchen, so it was not that easy for Xin Wang Zhao Zhen to move him. However, Zhong Zhaoxuan's position was not very important, so Xin Wang Zhao Zhen simply left him alone.

King Xin Zhao Zhen's indulgence did not earn Zhong Zhaoxuan any gratitude to him. The fact that Zhong Zhaoxuan appeared here at this moment was enough to explain the problem. At the prompt of his friend Xue Ping, Zhong Zhaoxuan also struck while the iron was hot, stood up and shouted to everyone:

"Everyone, except for Zhao Yan, at this time of internal and external troubles, our Song Dynasty will sooner or later be usurped by others. If it really comes to that point, what face do you have to see the late emperor? What face do you have to see your ancestors?"

What he said was righteous, but those present were not all small characters who were easily incited. Soon someone spoke up and said: "Master Zhong, Zhao Yan's power has become deep-rooted here.

I'm afraid it won't be easy to get rid of this person. Don't fail to kill the tiger and be injured by the tiger."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere that had just been stirred up by Xue Ping and Zhong Zhaoxuan was like being poured down by a basin of cold water, cooling it from head to bottom. Xue Ping and Zhong Zhaoxuan were so angry that they felt so angry.

, just about to turn their heads and yell, but when they saw the speaker, the two of them shut their mouths, but they couldn't say the curse. For no other reason, the speaker was

He is an old official, and his status is not low. The two juniors do not have the guts to speak rudely to him.

Seeing this man speaking, Zhang Shun, who was sitting at the table, raised his brows, quickly raised his hands, and said, "Then what do you think Mr. Song has to say?" Among all the people present, Zhang Shun was probably the only one who could stand on an equal footing with this man.

This person succeeded Zhong Pan as Lord Zhong, Song Wan.

Speaking of Song Wan, he is also a veteran among Jiangling officials, and Song Wan himself can be regarded as a famous figure in the dynasty. Otherwise, King Xin Zhao Zhen would not let him succeed Zhong Pan as the prefect. So.

When Song Wan opened his mouth, even Xue Ping didn't dare to say anything and could only keep his mouth shut.

Hearing Zhang Shun's question, Song Wan shook his head, smoothed his gray beard with his hand, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Zhang Shun, Zhao Yan's power is so great. Although you all want to get rid of the thieves, you don't have the military power in your hands.

How can we deal with him? Acting with determination is the only way to be wise. Acting impulsively is asking for death. It doesn't matter if we die. But no one in the Song Dynasty will eliminate the thief. Then the hundreds of years of the Song Dynasty's foundation will be lost.

Destroyed by the current government?"

When Song Wan was young, he served as a feudal official. Unlike most of the officials and family members here, Song Wan obviously had many more things to consider. And Zhang Shun naturally understood what Song Wan said.

, But I understand that the problem is that if it continues like this, it will only make Zhao Yan's power more and more powerful, and won't it be more difficult to get rid of him in the future?

At this time, Xue Ping couldn't help it anymore. He stood up and shouted: "Everyone, as the saying goes, to capture the thief first, capture the king. Everything started because of Zhao Yan. How about we make a plan to assassinate Zhao Yan. Once Zhao Yan dies, his followers will

There will be "chaos". When the time comes, we will recruit your Majesty's heavenly army to march eastward to attack the rebels. This place can be cleared, and we can regain power."

Assassinate Zhao Yan? As soon as this idea came out, everyone was stunned and stared at Xue Ping not knowing how to answer. Zhang Shun kept sighing in his heart. Xue Ping was still too impatient. If Zhao Yan was really so easy to be

If he was assassinated, he would have died more than 800 times. Not to mention the strict guards around Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan himself is said to be a peerless master who single-handedly killed Lei Hongbao. The special forces have traveled so much

Prince Song 485

Zhang Shun opened his mouth. He originally wanted to object to Xue Ping's suggestion, but looking at the faces of everyone, he couldn't say the words anyway. What's the use of objecting? Apart from Xue Ping's suggestion, everyone here also

What other ways can he come up with? Is it really like Song Wan said, continue to be patient and wait for the opportunity? It is impossible for Zhang Shun to accept Song Wan's statement. From the current point of view, Xue Ping's proposal can only be

There is no solution within a solution.

Of course, there are some people here who see through the flaws in Xue Ping's proposal, but they all have the same idea as Zhang Shun. We still have to try, it is better than doing nothing. Maybe, we will really let Xue Ping

Ping succeeded. Song Wan looked at everyone's expressions and just shook his head, simply closed his eyes and said nothing.

Seeing that no one opposed his opinion, Xue Ping almost jumped with excitement. This idea had been forming in Xue Ping's mind for a long time, but since Master Xue's death, the three Xue Ping brothers have no backers and no power in Jiangling.

There is simply no powerful killer to assassinate Zhao Yan.

Almost everyone in Jiangling City knew about the revenge of the two brothers and Zhao Yan for killing their father. Even if Xue Ping was willing to give up his life and wanted to assassinate Zhao Yan personally, he would not be able to get close to Zhao Yan.

But things are different now. As long as you get the consent of these people here, and with the wealth of these aristocratic families, it is easy to find a few skilled masters. The possibility of assassinating Zhao Yan is also high.

A lot.

Next, everyone present began to offer their opinions and suggestions, and finally agreed that each major family would select more than ten assassins to form an assassination team, specifically responsible for assassinating Zhao Yan. As for the time and place to assassinate Zhao Yan, everyone also repeatedly agreed

, and then the plan was finalized.

In the end, Xue Ping raised his hands to everyone with a happy face and said: "Everyone, if we can get rid of Zhao Yan, it will be like removing a cancer for the Song Dynasty. In the future, you will all be meritorious ministers, and you should leave your name in history."

Then he bowed to everyone.

Everyone also stood up and returned the greeting to Xue Ping. Everyone became humble, but looking at their appearance, it seemed that the assassination of Zhao Yan had been successful. The only few people still looked solemn, but did not speak.

I'm afraid these are the real discerning people.

Now that the plan has been agreed upon, Xue Ping and others also stood up and left one after another. In the blink of an eye, all the officials and ministers in the hall left. Before Song Wan left, he glanced at Zhang Shun and wanted to say something. Zhang Shun smiled bitterly.

He shook his head at Song Wan and just handed him off. Seeing Zhang Shun's appearance, Song Wan shook his head helplessly and finally turned around and left.

"Uh." Seeing that everyone had left, Zhang Shun was about to leave the hall, but suddenly he found that there was still one person left in the hall. When he looked closely, he saw that it was his friend who had not said a word from the beginning to the end.

When Zhong Pan and Zhang Shun saw Zhong Pan sitting there motionless, he was also full of doubts. When he walked up to Zhong Pan, he said to Zhong Pan: "Brother Zhong, are you okay?"

Hearing Zhang Shun's call, Zhong Pan, who had been sitting there with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. The cold light flashing in his eyes made Zhang Shun's heart tremble. Then Zhong Pan glanced at the people leaving at the entrance of the hall.

From behind, he lowered his voice and said to Zhang Shun: "Brother Zhang Shun, do you have a secret room here? I have important matters to discuss with Brother Zhang Shun."

Seeing Zhong Pan's mysterious appearance, Zhang Shun couldn't help but be startled, but he quickly came back to his senses and looked at Zhong Pan's expression carefully to make sure that Zhong Pan was not joking. The expression on his face became much more serious, and he clicked

He nodded and said: "Brother Zhong, please come with me."

In Jiangling City, a group of people was walking towards the center of the city. This group of people was none other than Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, who had finished handling military affairs and was about to return to his home. At this time, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen pulled the reins and drove his mount back slowly.

The soldiers closely followed Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, and a group of people walked along the busiest street in Jiangling City towards Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's Jiedushi Palace.

Although there was no large group of people to clear the way, everyone in Jiangling City knew about King Xin Zhao Zhen. The people who were walking on the streets consciously retreated when they saw King Xin Zhao Zhen marching on the street with his own soldiers.
