Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 448
Today, in Jiankang City, most of the remaining residential buildings are concentrated on both sides of the Qinhuai River.It's not that the buildings here are well preserved. In fact, when the rebels occupied the city, because of the proximity to the waterway, the nearby houses were the most damaged.

However, since the banks of the Qinhuai River are the center of the city that has flourished since the old Wu Dynasty, most families in Danyang have houses and real estate here, so there is great resistance to demolition.

Danyang Tao's family residence is located on the west side of Daheng, on the south bank of the Qinhuai River, close to the original Nanyuan.However, Nanyuan was burned to a white ground long ago, and the grand scene was gone. Even the large amount of remaining stone materials were transferred to the square area under construction in Changganli for use as waste materials.

Because Tao Hui had a job, he had to stay in Taicheng to clean up the mess, so he didn't spare a little time until the evening to return home in a hurry.

It was still far away from home, Tao Hui saw cars parked in front of the house, his brows that were slightly frowned couldn't help but frowned, and his mood was in turmoil for a while, he didn't know whether he should be thankful that the villagers did not give up in the face of danger, or he should worry about his family going too far striking.

As soon as he got out of the car at the door, several disciples rushed up to greet him and quickly told who was waiting at the mansion right now.

After listening to the vestibule, more than a dozen people hurried out from the hall, and they all asked, "Marquis Tao, do you know if there is still a turning point?"

"The child at home is still in the back garden, I wonder if it can be rescued?"

"Yeah, right now, we should rescue people first, and then think about the rest! Last night, the little raccoon scoured Dunan, and many families were captured, and now they are all detained in Stone City. Even if you don't think about safety, you must prevent them." Use this to drag and bite everyone!"

Right now these people are indeed in chaos, and now, not to mention that the original plan has not been achieved, even the children and disciples mobilized by each family have not returned for a long time, and their life and death are unknown.

Hearing the roar of the crowd, Tao Hui couldn't help but feel even more irritable, he stamped his feet and shouted angrily, "Shut up!"

Hearing this scolding sound, everyone was stunned, and the noise stopped abruptly.

Tao Hui waved his hand and signaled everyone to follow him into the room. After the doors and windows were closed, he sat in the banquet and sighed: "The matter has failed, and the best time has been missed. I hope you all plan for the worse. But One thing to keep in mind, as long as we and other villagers can unite and make an appointment to advance and retreat, no matter how bad the situation is, there will definitely be a turning point!"

When he said this, Tao Hui kept his eyes on everyone's faces, observing their expressions.He is very clear that it is impossible to fight back now. If they can still hold together with one heart and mind, or make Taichung fearful, the law will not blame the public.

However, he was not very confident about this. He knew very well how Zhang Kai was framed by these villagers.If the opponent counterattacks, he is one of the top-ranked targets.If you want to overcome this difficulty, you must unite the villagers by your side.

After pondering for a while, Tao Hui sighed again: "The situation has not yet turned to the worst. Those criminals died in the Tingwei prison, and Bian Dun cannot absolve himself of the blame. His family is a family of loyalists, so there must be many old friends who help each other out." Save, that is also our chance. I will go to see Wang Taibao later, and tell the fellow villagers what they want to protect us. The capital is newly established, and it is not appropriate to wantonly cleansing, Wang Taibao must understand this truth."

Everyone nodded after hearing the words, regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, they should make peace first, so that they could feel at ease.While nodding, there were also some people whose eyes twinkled faintly. Tao Hui's own tone was a little uncertain, which made them dare not express too much optimism.

"I will go to see Yu Si'ao for all the people who have fallen from each family. He has just entered the capital and is in charge of the military guard. Without family background like ours, it is difficult to gain a foothold. There is also Shang Shuling, who may not be happy with Yu Si'ao Ao is in charge of the guard, and there is nothing he can do."

Tao Hui knew very well that they had lost the capital to advance and retreat. If they wanted to preserve a little vitality, they could only look for cracks.Obviously it is the hometown where my family lives for a long time, but I have to rely on others to survive. Although it is depressing, it is also the only choice in desperation.

He was about to order something, when suddenly the door was knocked hastily, everyone in the room was shocked, and then he heard someone outside the door shouting urgently: "King Qiao came to the door, I want to see the Lord..."

Before the words were finished, the door of the room was violently broken open from the outside. King Qiao in armor walked into the room surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers. Tao Beijun entered Taicheng to speak."

Seeing King Qiao approaching aggressively, everyone in the room was in a state of chaos.When the matter came to an end, Tao Hui tried his best to suppress his disturbed emotions, stood up and said with a blank expression: "I don't know that the king came to the door, and there is a long way to go. May I ask the king to know why Wen Qiao called? I asked for instructions when I left Taicheng. Wen Gong, but Wen Gong did not give orders at that time."

After King Qiao heard the words, he was not in a hurry to answer, he just waved his hands to separate the guards behind him, and then revealed the hundreds of soldiers in the courtyard.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the room didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of getting angry.

Tao Hui looked left and right, but felt desolate in his heart. Earlier, he had promised to unite with these villagers, but now is the time to unite, but no one came forward!
King Qiao came here with his crowd, and he neither announced nor issued a formal edict. Who can tell exactly whose order he obeyed?Where are you going to take yourself?This time, I'm afraid life and death are uncertain!

After pondering for a while, Tao Hui got down from his seat, gave the people around him a wink, and then said to King Qiao: "Since Duke Wen has a call, I dare not neglect it, but I have just returned home and haven't changed my clothes yet to eat. Your Majesty, please wait for a while, I will change clothes and go with your Majesty..."

"That's not necessary. It's not an important matter. The Northern Army will return later."

As King Qiao said, he strode into the room, grabbed Tao back by the wrist, turned his head and said with a smile, "Could it be that the Northern Army still can't trust me?"

I believe you are a ghost!

Seeing that King Qiao was approaching every step of the way, Tao turned his upper body and wanted to withdraw his arm, but turned his gaze to those who were still silent in the hall, and forced a smile: "Since it is not an important matter, why bother to hurry. Your Majesty also See, there are old friends in the family today, if you abandon each other and leave, you will feel cold and hurt."

Hearing what Tao Hui said, some people in the banquet couldn't help but want to express their support, but just as they opened their mouths, King Qiao laughed and said: "It's a coincidence that I brought a lot of cars. She, might as well go together."

"Why does the king insist on persecution?"

When Tao Hui said this, his face was already gloomy.

Why do we have to suffer?
King Qiao wished he could draw out his sword and kill Tao Hui on the spot. You must know that he was in charge of the defense of Taicheng recently, but these Danyang families incited the mob to attack Taicheng.If the son-in-law hadn't arrived in time and let those mobs rush into Taicheng to wreak havoc, King Qiao's life would be in danger. This guy actually still has the face to ask himself why he is being tortured!

"Where the job is, please go to the Northern Army!"

With a shake of King Qiao's arm, Tao Hui was pushed forward, and then two personal guards stepped forward and set up left and right to go to the layman.

"Recently there have been many events in the capital. If you want to visit friends, you might as well avoid the limelight."

When the personal guards pulled Tao Hui out of the hall, King Qiao reached out to hold Tao Hui's son who rushed down from the hall while speaking, "If Tao Lang is fine, then come with me for a while."

------

After meeting the Empress Dowager, Director Wang had just left Jianping Garden when he learned that Tao Hui had been captured by King Qiao, and even his brothers and sons had been captured one by one!

With such a quick movement, there is no time for the other party to react. This is not leaving a way out!

Squeezing the imperial edict from the empress dowager in his hand, Dao Wang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.In fact, Tao Hui can be regarded as an old member of his family. He followed the general in his early years and was later promoted by him.It's not that he didn't think about pulling, even if he couldn't keep his position, at least he had to save his life.

But now, people were taken away one step ahead, even if he wanted to help, he was still one step behind.In the future, if the people in Japan are transferred into his hands again, I am afraid that the Guarding Army Mansion has already prepared enough evidence to confiscate the family and exterminate the family, so what can he do then?
After thinking for a while, Director Wang still went to Wen Qiao's place first, and asked Bian Dun to come back.Before he had time to say anything else, he asked Bian Dun to stay in his official office, sorting out all kinds of files to be summoned for interrogation overnight, and at the same time ordered the Ting Wei to dispatch the arrestee immediately.

When doing this, Director Wang also tried to persuade him, hoping that Bian Dun would put the overall situation first and take the initiative to take responsibility for the crime.He made a promise to try his best to preserve Bian Dun's life and even pass on his title.

Bian Dun was really confused at the moment, and seeing that Tao Hui's family was taken away without knowing whether he was alive or dead, he felt the cruelty of political struggle all the more.

The current atmosphere is no longer the relaxed atmosphere that he made a big mistake in the past and can still recover. One mistake may lead to hatred.So when Director Wang asked his subordinates to sort out the files in his name, he spent the whole night writing the indictment on the spot.

As for Wang Dao, he is writing a letter to Wang Shu, hoping that Wang Shu can send Wang Yunzhi back to Jiankang to join the army.This time he handed over a Jiuqing Tingwei, and Tao Hui was also one of his people, and he was also helping to clear up these Danyang families. The Army Guards should give his family a place.

At the same time, Director Wang is also writing a letter to Zhao Yin who is still in Liyang, hoping that Zhao Yin can make preparations for the emergency.At present, it can be said that there are results in the capital, and there will be changes in the local area that also need to be considered.

In addition, in the letter to the two, Director Wang also asked them about the situation in Jiangbei.If it wasn't too bad, he hoped that Wang Bin could be appointed as Prime Minister Jiang Xia.It is no longer suitable for Wang Bin to stay in Jiankang at the moment, and there is too much resistance if he wants to arrange those rich places and important positions in Jiangdong.

Because Jiangbei does not have the barrier of Yuzhou Zuyue, Jiangxia will not be peaceful in the future.Letting Wang Bin go to Jiangxia to replace Wen Qiao's man, Wang Qianqi, on the one hand retaliates against Wen Qiao, and on the other hand arranges a dangerous task for Wang Bin so that the Shen family will not make further progress.

Of course, there is another point, that is, Tao Kan is old and may not be able to stay in Jingzhou for a long time.If Wang Bin can gain a foothold in Jiangxia and head to Jingzhou in the future, the resistance will be much smaller.

Because of this purge, the atmosphere in the capital is still not relaxed.But before the response from the local towns, a group of people entered the capital from the west two days later in a rather embarrassing situation.

"Uncle Yu suddenly crossed the river, and the general will be expelled from Liyang..."

Zhao Yin tossed his pocket aside, his hair disheveled, kneeling down in front of Director Wang with a disheartened expression and complained shyly.
