13. The next situation is changing rapidly, and the straight teaching people are dazzled.
  Of course, Xiao Dingli, who had regained the throne, refused to redeem Xiao Jin's request with gold silk and silk.
  And Lu Yan, who never stopped the conquest during the negotiation, also quickly got news of Du Jintan's death and the replacement of the emperor Xiao's son.
  So, on the same day that Xiao Ding re-entered the throne, the emergency report that Xuanhua City was broken was presented to Xiao Ding's case like a gift.
  Xiao Ding, who had just accepted the pilgrimage of a hundred officials, threw the report down the case with a sullen face.
  Through those words, he could see the other party's reining horse laughing wildly, and it was definitely not just this arrogance that made him uneasy.
  The officials picked up the battle report and circulated it, all panicking. Xuanhua city was broken, and Luo Qiyu, the garrison general, died as a martyr. Among the 30,000 soldiers garrisoned in the city, only a thousand people survived.

  Next, the last barrier of Kyoto, the Luojiang River, will face the pressure brought by the Xiongnu cavalry. Whether it can be held or not is directly related to the safety of the community.
  Xiao Ding issued his first imperial decree after the restoration amid the disputes among courtiers and sent special personnel to enlist in the nearby states and counties. Uncharacteristically, this order was ordered to be carried out urgently. As a result, with the addition of the original local soldiers, he finally managed to make up one hundred thousand soldiers again.
  Xiao Ding also Ren Yanqing-he is already the new privy envoy at the moment-as the head coach, promoted dozens of middle-level generals who are still ranked in the army, and dispatched troops on the same day, finally rushing to guard before the 100,000 cavalries of the Xiongnu. The line was stationed on the south bank of the Luojiang River.
  After doing all of this, Xiao Ding's tense heart relaxed a little. This lineup is naturally not comparable to Xiao Jin's 500,000 Black Armoured elites, but it is also the best team he can produce at the moment.

  Seeing someone blocking the front line, the desperate panic that had been pervading Baiguan's heart began to ease.
  Soon, the memorial requesting a long life to punish the rebels began to become popular. Xiao Ding was jealous and didn't respond, just staying in the middle and not sending out. The ministers regarded Shen Jing as acquiescence and rushed to follow suit.
  After realizing that the court heard about it every day, Xiao Ding began to feel bored, so he called Yang Ruqin into the palace privately to discuss it.
  At this moment, Yang Ruqin has been promoted to participate in political affairs because of his support for Xiao Ding's restoration. This position was only a step away from the aspect, and Xiao Ding even gave him the right to know seals and remand, showing his love and cherish. Everyone is optimistic about Yang Ruqin's future, so countless people cling to it. His fame soon became famous in the capital, and the limelight was the same for a while.

  When he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, Yang Ruqin did not mention whether the memorials were justified, but said: "The ministers have been outside the temple in recent days. I always hear hundreds of officials speculating about who will be the next one to be killed. "
  Xiao Ding pondered: "Are you saying that Chen Zeming's life and death disturbed everyone?"
  Yang Ruqin laughed: "Du and Chen have been in the court for many years, and they have been investigated seriously. There are countless officials who have had contact with them. Now they are in an accident, afraid of it. There are many people who are hurting themselves, and there are not a few who rushed to write to show their innocence. After the conspiracy charges and the criminals involved are all concluded, the big guy can sleep peacefully at night..."
  Xiao Ding nodded: " That's right. Chen Zeming must have never thought about it back then. It's just that ordinary contacts will one day be a reason for others to want to get him to death." He said this with some ironic smiles as if he was taunting that person's naivety. . At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his eyes.
  Yang Ruqin glanced at him, and the emperor obviously didn't realize that he couldn't leave the person's persistence. How can the love and hatred of these two people entangle outsiders be made clear? The courtiers who have written outside the temple are all filled with righteous indignation. Who knows if this flattering is a place.
  Xiao Ding couldn't help but
  save himself. "What does Aiqing think?" Yang Ruqin stood up solemnly: "The minister thought...this is just a woman's opinion!"
Xiao Ding couldn't help but feel happy. Aiqing has never
  stopped talking surprisingly...tell me the reasons." Yang Ruqin said, "Long live these notes, just to wait for someone to come in and say these things someday."
  Xiao Ding said nothing but laugh...
  Yang Ruqin pondered for a moment and said: "It's very simple to kill Chen Zeming. It is just to send someone to the East Market. But Long live really wants to investigate this case at this moment? Rebellion is not a trivial matter. The two people have deep roots. This case will be investigated. No one knows how many people and which people will be implicated. There have been many such cases in history. Which one was not a major case that shook the ruling and the opposition to rewash the officialdom. Does this create an opportunity for the barbarians?"
  Xiao Ding
  reduced his smile when he heard here, "What about Qing's opinion?" Yang Ruqin bowed: "The minister thought...at this moment to pursue the case, it would be easy to move and the court's roots, if Settling the case rashly will inevitably make others underestimate your majesty's methods. In this case, it is better to find an excuse to excuse Chen Zeming from guilt, and more importantly, to reward others. First, it shows that your majesty treats others generously, and secondly, since the culprit is the capital can It's safe and sound, and these people must be at ease so that they won't
  jump over the wall and disrupt the overall situation." Xiao Ding's expression suddenly changed, staring at him, and said
  sensibly, "Where is he worthy of my reward?" Yang Ruqin didn't change his face, "Array. Going secretly to cast the light, avoiding fighting, is also considered to be a help to your majesty."
  Xiao Ding was angry and funny and was silent for a long time.

  On the second day, the officials who were obsessed with killing off the thieves were surprised to find that their memorial request finally got a response this time.
  However, contrary to what they expected, Xiao Ding reversed the cruelty of more than a decade and treated the enemy who had lifted himself off the throne with magnanimity.
  Du Jintan was still convicted of conspiracy because of the fact that he was dead and was not blessed to enjoy the gift of the emperor. As the principal culprit, he could not be spared even if he died. His body was dragged to the execution ground to be broken into public. At the same time, the Du's family was ransacked, and hundreds of people were used as slaves.
  But Chen Zeming, who was alive, was lucky enough to have the greatest tolerance of the emperor.
  According to the imperial edict, the former king of Wei was able to repent and abandon the dark cast at a critical moment, avoiding the final bloodshed and enabling the peaceful transfer of power. Looking back, it is indispensable. So it is to save lives and seize the shade.
  In other words, because of Chen Zeming's knowledge of current affairs, Xiao Ding's restoration did not experience more twists and turns. For this vision, Xiao Ding decided to save his life, even if he had been guilty before. The emperor who was waiting for the emperor's benevolence even removed the aspect of Chen Zeming, and at the same time gave him a fourth-rank idle position, and allowed him to continue to advance.
  This is rare leniency. The officials stared at the emperor's unexpected performance and didn't know how to react. Only Yang Ruqin was not surprised.

  Chen Zeming, who came to thank you in front of the temple, should have just been brought out from the prison. He looked dumb but he was neatly dressed, obviously, someone had arranged everything for him in advance.
  All the officials looked at him as he entered the hall, and they felt unbelievable that the man who had imprisoned the emperor actually saved his life because of his surrender.
  Chen Zeming almost staggered forward for a few steps, and then, probably in fear of the might of the sky, he knelt down three times and bowed nine times from a distance. He was far away from everyone at this time, and no one could see the look on his face.
  Yang Ruqin showed some indescribable expressions.
  Everyone whispered, seeing Chen Zeming's winks inevitably a bit complicated and a bit contemptuous.

  In their view, this person is considered a speculative victory in this power transfer. Under normal circumstances, this kind of speculator is synonymous with despicable people. To join politics, you can only gain your own greater interests by selling the interests of others. Obviously, this person who has gone through two changes in the palace without falling down is not an exception. Otherwise, how could he find a way to survive under Xiao Ding, who is known for his harshness? As for whose interests were damaged, no one knows. The most likely one is Du Jintan-the person who has died. Everyone speculated that Du Jindan's headless corpse had taken all the guilt, which caused the board to fall on Chen Zeming's body to be few and not strong enough.
  So there are rumors that Chen Zeming actually planned this coup. He once again supported Xiao Ding for the real power he had already lost and the fall of grace in front of Xiao Jin before revenge. However, this kind of inference is still difficult to justify. In the end, it can only become people's after-hours talks, and it will not be in the hall of elegance.
  However, the fact is that Chen Zeming can live well, and enjoy the royal court salary.
  This has led to a sharp drop in the enthusiasm of many people who were vying to write to the court to continue to play debates. Xiao Ding was finally able to clear his ears, and the original bloody turmoil disappeared before it began.
  It was not until a few years later that people looked back and realized that this was the beginning of the sudden change in Xiao Ding's ruling style.

  And the letter to the enemy in Chen Zeming's hand did not appear in the subsequent official history. It mysteriously disappeared in the course of history, leaving it as mysterious and inexplicable as it appeared. Chen Zeming, who has enjoyed the favor of the emperor, has never been to court again. It is said that he is a serious offender of an old illness and cannot get out of bed with a headache. The famous doctor was invited to the house in a row, but no one could cure his illness.
  After the news came out, the door of the Chen Mansion was still unreliable.
  This scene is in stark contrast to the crowd of friends who appeared here just a few months ago.
  But this is just the inevitable experience of a person falling from a height, and compared with the sorrow that rang out every night in the capital, it is so small that it is not worth mentioning.

The author has something to say:If I don't get rid of the restlessness of my sleep...so all we see are hallucinations...
