Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1498 Returning to Yudu
Although Xudu was in chaos, the gates of the Sifang City were still closed, and people in the city were still searching from house to house, in the name of searching for the remnants of last night's rebellion.

But in fact, Yelou united with the soldiers and horses in the city to conduct a large-scale search of Jingwu Division. The more than ten strongholds established by Jingwu Division in the city were all found out.

Some escaped, some were caught, and some were shot dead on the spot...

Jing Wusi's achievements for several years seemed to be ruined just like that.

outside the city.

On a small slope.

A new tomb has been built here, which is a clothes tomb, and it is also a daughter's feeling for her father. She buried her father here in the name of the clothes tomb.

"We should go!"

The woman stood for a long time before a deep voice sounded from behind, reminding her.

She turned her head.

Looking at the person in front of her, her gaze was very complicated. Once upon a time, she wished that he would die, that he would be divided into pieces, cut into pieces by thousands of knives, which could not relieve her hatred.

But it was the person in front of her who gave her a new life.

After all, she is an inhumane person.

"Why did you save me?" The woman asked: "Shouldn't you watch me die, or use this matter to discredit both the emperor and the Cao family?"

She is Fushou.

Fu Shou who should have died.

It is also the fuse, the emperor used her name to punish the Cao family, if she still said it, it means that the blood edict of the emperor is all fart.

"If you want to save it, save it, how can there be so many reasons!"

Tan Zong was standing. His broken leg was equipped with prosthetic limbs and crutches, so he could walk with a limp. His eyes were calm and his smile was calm: "You are still valuable to me. And, no matter what, you are also a heaven-level spy of our Jingwu Division, so saving you is not normal!"

He has long been aware of the emperor's actions, let alone let Fushou experience it himself, so that he can truly give up.

As for rescuing Fushou, it is not difficult. Under the chaotic situation, it is easy for him to do something. After all, he still has arrangements in that palace.

"Your sky-level spy, I'm afraid I'm not the only one!"

Fu Shou sneered: "The person who rescued me was not from the Son of Heaven, but from the Cao family. Although I had been prepared for it, I listened to your words and staggered the key points, but if I can't be rescued earlier, I will die too! "

"Yes or no, does it matter?"

Tan Zong curled his lips and said, "It's still at this point, do you still want to go back to be a queen empress, mother of the world?"

"Mother Yitianxia?"

Fu Shou felt that she was a little ridiculous, her eyes fell on the tomb of clothes, and she said deeply: "Our Fu family has paid too much. Now I hope that the Fu family can survive this troubled world in peace and stability!"

Fu Wan's death was still a big blow to her. Even though she had already felt it, she still felt uncomfortable at this point.

"Let's go!"

Tan Zongdao: "If you want revenge, you have to become stronger. The power of the Fu family in the Central Plains is not easy. You still have a chance!"

Fu Shou was rescued because of the Fu family. Although Fu Wan died, the Fu clan, no matter whether they were in the Guanzhong family or among the Central Plains gentry, their status was not simple.

"If I don't have such use value, shouldn't you watch me die?" Fu Shou asked suddenly.

"In my eyes, anyone is valuable!"

Tan Zong replied blankly.

"I see!"

Fu Shou smiled. She had injuries on her body. Although they were not fatal, they also hurt her vitality, making her pale, but there was a pitiful smile on her pale face. Her smile was exactly the same as that of Tan Zong. It was all so natural, so plain: "Master Commander, don't worry, I will not disappoint your expectations!"

Tan Zong's heart skipped a beat, but he recovered quickly. He said calmly, "You don't need to stay in the Central Plains for the time being. You can return to Yudu with me. If you want the Fu family to be safe and healthy, you have to vote for the king." loyalty!"

"Can!"

Fu Shou nodded.

Tan Zong contributed a lot to the preservation of the Fu family, but it was only for a while, and it was King Ming Mujing who really made the decision.

....................................

The chaos in Xudu did not affect the joy in the southwest. The Ming army defeated Cao Cao in Nanyang, and the prestige of King Mujing in the country began to rise steadily.

Under such circumstances, some people began to play, asking Ming Wang to proclaim himself emperor.

There is more than one person playing.

Moreover, they all have different identities. Most of them are great Confucianists among the people, great Confucians who are not involved in government affairs, and scholars with high prestige among the people.

Ever since, under the express hint of Zhaoming Pavilion, the news that promoted King Ming to proclaim himself emperor began to sweep across all places in the entire Ming Kingdom like a storm.

"The big man has lost his prestige and is no longer good enough to control the world!"

"To replace it now, the timing is just right!"

"The world is in chaos, the common people are living in dire straits, and they are displaced. We just need a responsible person to step forward and clean up the mess!"

"For the sake of the overall interests of the world, it is righteousness to respectfully invite King Ming to ascend the throne!"

"King Ming is the emperor, it is shown by the heavens!"

"..."

The people all expressed their approval.

This is not just a simple hijacking, it can be done, and it is not a lure to make the people have such thoughts. It is more that the Ming Dynasty gave the people a lot of confidence.

The common people are very simple, they just believe in the things in front of them, for the battle in the court, what righteousness, what orthodoxy, in the face of survival, they are farting.

Whoever can protect their survival will win their hearts.

In the past few years, the fighting outside has been raging, the world has been in turmoil, many people have been displaced, and many people have starved to death.

Countless people are starved to death every year and implicated in the war, even more than the number who died in the war. This is the biggest problem that caused the population to drop sharply throughout the Three Kingdoms era.

And under the protection of the Ming Kingdom, not only is life safe and peaceful, the Ming army is strong and externally tough, and for the protection of the common people, this alone is enough for the common people to support.

In addition, that is, the Ming Dynasty launched a new policy, and the new policy brought people not only a better life, but also a hope.

People are sometimes numb to life, especially in troubled times, their requirements are very low, and more is how to survive.

But people always have some hope. The Ming Kingdom gave this hope to the people, and the people naturally had a sense of belonging to the Ming Kingdom, and hoped that the Ming Kingdom would last forever.

Therefore, in the matter of proclaiming the emperor, although there are some promotions from Zhaoming Pavilion, including the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, it is more about the people's thoughts, and the public opinion is God's will , and God's will began to favor Mu Jing as the emperor.

....................................

At this time, a fleet, mainly a large ship, accompanied by more than ten fighting ships, began to slowly approach the largest pier in Yudu.

Yudu has developed rapidly in recent years, especially in terms of transportation. As the capital of the Ming Dynasty and the center of the entire Ming Dynasty, the economy here has developed rapidly, and the transportation industry as a demand has also developed. place of circulation.

The first thing is to rely on water transportation. After Mujing established the Ming Dynasty and established the capital of Yudu, the development of water transportation here has increased by at least ten times. The cargo ships that come to play are densely packed. It is one of the highest peaks in the southwest in these years.

And second, the Ming state has road-building artifacts, cement, and explosives. Explosives can open mountains and build roads, and cement can quickly solidify, which opened up traffic around Yudu.

Within three years, Yudu opened up at least two external roads, which completely opened up the transportation network for this mountain city trapped in the mountains.

This has also caused Yudu's population to skyrocket in recent years. The three counties, Jiangbei and Yuzhong Peninsula, including the most remote Nanshan County, have begun to increase their population.

Population is the foundation of development, and this is also the prosperity of Yudu, which is the number one in the world today. Whether it is Jianyedu in Wu State, Xudu in Central Plains, Yedu in Hebei, or Jidu in Youzhou, they are far inferior .

This early in the morning, the pier was overcrowded, shouting could be heard all over the sky, and shirtless coolies were constantly moving goods.

This pier is the largest pier in Yudu, but it has always been a pier for merchant ships to berth. The sudden appearance of a fleet of military ships frightened many people.

Moreover, the huge building ship is like a giant, making the surrounding merchant ships stay far away.

"Is this a warship of our navy?"

"Aren't the navy's warships moored at the military port over Nanshan?"

"How did they enter our Chaotian Wharf!"

"This boat has a deep draft and is too huge. This thing is a giant beast on the water. It can eat all our boats with its mouth!"

"If we have a building ship to transport, then we will make a lot of money!"

"What do you think, Lou Chuan can serve as a merchant ship for you!"

On the pier, many people whispered.

At this moment, a flag was suddenly raised from the boat.

Everyone in Yudu is familiar with this flag. It is planted at the highest place of the Ming Palace. The battle flag of a single flower does not belong to the entire Ming Kingdom, but only a private symbol.

The black mandala battle flag, known as the king's flag.

"Wang Qi?"

"Who's on board?"

"There is only one person in the world who can use our Ming King's flag!"

"That's right, the king has no queen, so the one on the boat is the king!"

"The king is back!"

"The king has returned from the battlefield!"

All of a sudden, the whole pier was boiling.

on board.

Mu Jing was a little depressed, and it was an uncomfortable thing for the boat to go on its way. Even if it was a building boat, swinging on the big river felt like sitting on a swing.

If it was more stable, it would not be a big problem, but in order to hurry, the boat was going very fast, so the swing was also very violent.

He, who has never been seasick, almost got seasick. Fortunately, he didn't vomit it out, otherwise he would have lost his life.

"Your Majesty, you've arrived in Yudu!"

Ma Chao cupped his hands in front of the door and said softly.

"So fast?"

Mu Jing stood up from the cabin, opened the curtains of the cabin, looked outside, and it was indeed Yudu, and in front of it was the landmark building of Yudu, a bridge, a bridge built with cement, running through the entire river, connecting Jiangbei and Jiangbei. The bridge connecting the Yuzhong Peninsula.

"Why so many people?"

Mu Jing frowned.

"Your Majesty, I sent someone to ask about it. Usually there are so many people here. It's not because they came to welcome His Majesty. The king's flag, which we had kept away for safety, has just been sent out now!"

Ma Chao cupped his hands and said.

Along the way, he was a little worried. If it was escorted by a large army, he didn't have to worry so much, but they only had two battalions of the Divine Guard, so naturally they had to be careful.

Although there shouldn't be any problems within the territory of the Ming Kingdom, there should be no big mistake in being careful. Especially at this time, the Ming Kingdom has won a great victory. If there is news that King Ming is in danger, there is no need for others to kill him. Ma Chao feels that he himself You can kill yourself directly.

"Surrounded by so many people, how do you enter the city!"

"Why don't you tell the six gates in the city to stand up and escort them out!" Ma Chao was worried that in the chaos, he would not have enough manpower, which would put Mu Jing in danger.

When there are too many people, it will be difficult to control.

"Need not!"

Mu Jing thought for a while, then shook his head: "Wandering alone on the battlefield, in this Yudu, our own place, if we are afraid of being assassinated, then it seems a little cowardly!"

He can be timid, but King Ming can't. This is distrust of the people and will lose the hearts of the people.

In fact, he still wanted to deal with the affairs in the army before he was ready to return, but Zhaoming Pavilion repeatedly urged him with secret letters, so he had no choice but to return to Yudu first.

On the way, he already knew Zhaoming Pavilion's thoughts.

He himself was a little vacillating.

He has considered a lot along the way, proclaiming himself emperor is a matter of time, he can't be a Hanchen all his life, he doesn't have Cao Mengde's thoughts on the Han Dynasty.

For Liu's royal family, he has no sense of belonging, and even for the Han Dynasty, he is very strange, and there is nothing wrong with replacing it.

But the timing is very important. He dare not say whether the timing is ripe or not. Many things are looking good, but a wrong decision will lead to the collapse of the whole situation.

"But?" Ma Chao frowned a little. If Huang Zhong was here, he still had some confidence, but although Huang Zhong had to return to Yudu, once Mu Jing left, he had to appease the army first, so it was impossible to accompany him.

If he is alone, if he encounters a top expert, such as Wang Yue's level of assassination, he may not be able to handle it properly.

"Let's go!"

Mu Jing tidied up his robes, and said with a smile, "I believe that our Yudu City is safe!"

His trust comes from Jing Wusi and the six doors.

Tan Zong and Zhao Xin of Jingwu Division are both cruel guys. How could they ignore their private plots? The enemies in Yudu were either killed or captured. How many children are left? The mice can be counted clearly, and Zhang Huo of the other six doors is not just for nothing. Zhang Huo controls the six doors, and the six doors control the daily order. He knows Yudu better than Jing Wusi.

"promise!"

When he got here, Ma Chao could only believe it.

Mu Jing stepped out of the deck, looked up, and saw that it was densely packed, and the whole pier was paying attention to him, and he suddenly felt a little stressed.
