Chapter 409 The Truth About the Massacre in Wuping County
When Li Jian'an was determined to have died young and was buried, Li Jiren in the capital was worried about his mother and returned to Jiyang.
Li Jiren's return made Ji Siyuan even more indignant.
Li Zhaoying, his father and his two sons were mostly in the army. Xie Ning was injured due to poisoning during childbirth, so the Prince Lin's Mansion was handed over to Ji Siyuan to take care of.
In the 33rd year of Huiren's reign, Li Zhaoying was secretly appointed crown prince, which was heard by Li Zhaocai.
Li Zhaocai was dissatisfied with his father's favoritism and asked Emperor Huiren to release Chen Xinrong from the cold palace.
At that time, Chen Xinrong had been imprisoned for 25 years, and Emperor Huiren agreed.
After Chen Xinrong came out of the cold palace, it was easier for her to do things than before.
When she heard that Li Zhaoying was made the crown prince, she sent a message to Beirong, asking the Meng family to send out assassins to kill Li Zhaoying.
Unfortunately, the plan failed.
Li Zhaoying traced the case all the way and found out that it was Beirong's work, but unfortunately he didn't know Chen Xinrong's identity at that time.
Afterwards, the eldest prince of Beirong died, and Beirong fell into a brief period of chaos.
Li Zhaoying felt more and more that something was wrong with the war in Dayu. The seven enemy countries, thousands of miles apart in the east, south, west and north, were able to launch their attacks on Dayu at the same time, as if someone was giving unified command.
He informed his discovery to border troops in various places and asked them to pay attention.
During the battle with Dongling, Gao Siwei, commander of the Eastern Frontier Army, discovered that someone in the capital was colluding with the enemy country.
Unfortunately, the message Gao Siwei passed to Li Zhaoying was intercepted by Ji Siyuan.
Gao Siwei didn't receive a reply for a long time, so he had to put away the evidence, which contained a round token shaped like the sun.
This token is the token left behind when Princess Jiang Ning formed an alliance with other countries.
The Northern Rong, Qiang people and the Yan royal family also had such tokens.
After the Spring Festival of the 37th year of Huiren, Gao Siwei finally met Li Zhaoying.
Li Zhaoying originally planned to investigate this matter, but his plan was disrupted because the Qiang tribe suddenly rose up in rebellion.
That year, Li Zhaoying was seriously injured, and Ji Siyuan took advantage of his coma to give him the highly poisonous "sandalwood".
After being poisoned by this poison, one will fall into a coma for a long time. The longer the time, the longer the coma will be, until one can no longer wake up.
Emperor Huiren also wrote two imperial edicts and a secret edict because of Ji Siyuan's false news.
Unfortunately, no one knew about the existence of the edict and secret decree that established Li Jixin as emperor.
Li Zhaocai became the heir to the throne.
During those years, Prince Lin's Mansion was worried that if Li Zhaoying's situation were known, it would trigger war and panic among the people. Whenever Li Zhaoying woke up, he would appear at the border and in Jiyang City.
Therefore, apart from the people in Prince Lin's Mansion, only the Duke of Ying's Mansion, Zhao Qihua, Ruan Qingyao, Ruan Xinyu and Chen Xinrong who were involved knew about Li Zhaoying's poisoning. Even Li Zhaocai did not know.
Li Zhaocai realized that the Duke of Yingguo and Chen Xinrong and others had done many shameful things for him.
He chose not to ask anything, as if as long as he didn't think about it or ask, he would not violate the Li family's ancestral precept of "no fratricide".
Those years were the most difficult time for Jiyang. The Lin Palace could try its best to reduce the impact of man-made disasters and military disasters, but in the face of natural disasters, no matter how hard the Lin Palace tried, it could not reverse the situation.
The disaster in Jiyang was known to the whole of Dayu. Pingyao Prefecture, Yucheng Prefecture, Guanzhong Prefecture and other places all came to lend a hand, but in return the court imposed heavy taxes on these places.
Li Zhaoning, who was far away in Yuezhou Prefecture, collected a large amount of food and prepared to send it to Jiyang, but he was assassinated and survived.
It was at that time that Li Zhaoning learned from the assassin that her maternal grandfather's family, the Duke of Ying, had poisoned Li Zhaoying.
Li Zhaoning didn't know what poison her brother had been poisoned with, and her children and grandchildren were still imprisoned in the Duke of England's mansion, so she dared not move.
She could only collect various rare medicinal herbs and send them to Jiyang.
The existence of Li Zhaoning and the increasing public doubts about Li Zhaocai led the interest group headed by Li Zhaocai to begin planning a plan to completely ruin the reputation of Prince Lin's Mansion.
In the second year of Zhaowen, natural disasters continued to wreak havoc in Jiyang. That year was also the coldest year in Jiyang.
Large numbers of cattle and sheep died due to lack of pasture.
Seeing more and more people in Jiyang starving to death, Li Jiren no longer cared about his ancestors' teachings and led his troops to rob the granary of Yan State.
The Duke of England, Chen Xinrong and others would certainly not miss such a good opportunity.
Chen Xinrong wrote a letter to Beirong, threatening the Duke of Ying with Zhao Qihua's concubine and children.
Afterwards, while Li Zhaoying was asleep and Li Jixin went to support Li Jiren, the 100,000-strong Northern Rong army passed through Luoyang County and entered Jiyang one after another.
Zhao Qihua was the garrison commander of Luoyang County.
In addition to the 100,000 Beirong troops, Zhao Qihua also took away 10,000 Jiyang troops and hundreds of Jiyang people who were dissatisfied with the court, and headed south.
Ji Siyuan forged a letter from Prince Lin and took away his token.
Zhao Qihua used the token and letter to persuade the officials of Pingyao Prefecture and Anling Prefecture to let him go.
The prefect of Pingyao Prefecture once wrote a letter to inquire, but it was intercepted by Ji Siyuan.
Afterwards, these 110,000 people gathered at Wangyue Villa.
Wangyue Villa was where the remnants of the soldiers who retreated from Jiyang were settled.
Some people raised doubts, but because of the letter and the token, they were able to conceal it.
More importantly, they believed that Emperor Huiren had tricked their prince.
Concubine Qi was the benefactor of all of them, but she died tragically in the palace.
Whether the prince wants to regain his position or avenge his mother, he should raise an army.
On the second day of May, Li Zhaoying woke up after sleeping for half a year.
On May 10, Ji Siyuan told him that the number of troops in Luoyang County was incorrect.
Li Zhaoying sent people to inquire around, only to find out that Zhao Qihua had actually brought more than 10,000 people, and some people of unknown origin, to Shangyang Prefecture.
Afterwards, Li Zhaoying and Li Jiren chased all the way and arrived in Wuping County on May 20th.
At that time, five days had passed since the massacre in Wuping County. Nearly 100,000 civilians had been killed, and the city was filled with blood and smoke from burning corpses.
Zhao Qihua committed suicide, putting the blame firmly on Prince Lin's Mansion.
In the following year, no matter how hard the Lin Palace and the Qing Palace investigated, they could not find out where those people came from.
At that time, the Beirong army had disguised themselves as the people of Jiyang and swaggered back to Beirong from various border areas.
Most of the 10,000 Jiyang troops brought by Zhao Qihua did not participate in the killing and continued to stay in Wuping County. It was not until the Shangyang Prefecture officialdom was cleaned up last year that these people returned to Jiyang.
Some of them killed people, but Li Zhaoying didn't know how to punish them. These people were just following orders, and the fault was his.
Later, these soldiers were dismissed from the army and sent to the Qiang people to reclaim wasteland.
If Han Qingyun had not mentioned that hunting dogs entered the village when Fengye Village was massacred, Li Jiren would not have thought that it was the Beirong people who were causing the rebellion.
Now that Beirong has surrendered to Beiji, Beirong Queen Mother Meng Long, the head of the Meng family, and evidence of Chen Xinrong's dealings with Beirong over the years have all been brought back.
Meng Long and the head of the Meng family glared at Li Jixin fiercely.
"You little bastard, it's you who killed my Meng family!"
Li Jixin didn't say anything either. He shook the dagger in his hand and cut open the clothes of the head of the Meng family and Li Zhaocai. He also found a red round birthmark on the left buttocks that was exactly the same as Ji Siyuan's.
"Chen Xinrong, Meng Long, you are women, so I won't make things difficult for you. Do you want to admit that you have this birthmark yourself, or go to the food court and have someone check it out?"
"Bah! You little thief, my Meng family is waiting for you in the underworld." Meng Long had been honored all his life, but suffered such humiliation in his old age. He wished he could skin Li Jixin alive.
But she absolutely didn't want others to see her body, so she could only nod helplessly.
Chen Xinrong was also extremely angry, but he knew that Li Jixin was lawless and would do what he said, so he gritted his teeth and admitted the birthmark.
She originally wanted to say that the letters exchanged with Beirong were all forged, but the witnesses and evidence prepared by Li Zhaoying were so sufficient that they could not be denied.
Even the leader of the Beirong Army that day was brought here.
Chen Xinrong could only lament in his heart that the situation was hopeless...
