Daming: My brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 192 Rebuking King Lu, King Lu regrets it!
In fact, Wang Yongguang is unwilling to see such a result, that is, people like himself will be reduced to the point where they still have to beg for mercy from Tianqi.

But he really didn't expect that people like Tianqi would think of using the village to encircle the town to deal with them gentry.

As a result, these people lost miserably.

Now Wang Yongguang can only beg for mercy from Tianqi.

"Your Majesty! The criminal is guilty, but the criminal is not disloyal to His Majesty!"

"The sinner has come to this point, it is because the sinner was kidnapped by the traitor who took refuge in King Lu and sent to Weihui, which made the sinner have to go to this point!"

"After being kidnapped to King Lu, the guilty minister originally wanted to die on a hunger strike, in order to honor the minister's day, but later the minister thought that a minister cannot be loyal and useless. Instead of going on a hunger strike to show his will, it is better to compromise and secretly suppress the rebellion for the court. Contribute."

"Since the guilty ministers surrendered to the rebels, they have deliberately sold their officials, embezzled and accepted bribes, and deliberately let the rebels levy more on the people, and recommended mediocre ministers as commanders, making it easier for the court to suppress the rebellion!"

"Now, hearing that His Majesty's army has arrived in the suburbs, the guilty minister is even more weeping with joy, thinking that he has lived up to the suffering of the enemy, and taking advantage of the opportunity of the guilty minister as the supervisor, he resolutely dedicated the city to His Majesty, so that the people will not be burned. .”

"The guilty minister answered your Majesty's question of why he came to the rebel army to serve as an official. As for why the guilty minister is unwilling to die for your majesty! I want to say, this is nothing! Your majesty's ghost, never dare to have the heart of disobedience! Your majesty!"

Wang Yongguang bumped his head on the ground as he spoke.

"The same is true for ministers and others. They never dare to have the heart of disobedience. Now surrendering to the enemy is nothing but compromise, Your Majesty!"

Ding Qirui and other civil servants also echoed.

They are all as desperate as Wang Yongguang now. They never thought that His Royal Highness Lu Wang, who did not implement the New Deal and treated the gentry courteously, would decline so quickly shortly after he raised his army and grew rapidly, so that he had no power to fight back in front of the court. They all begged for mercy.

Wang Yongguang went on to say: "These days, under the command of the rebels, the criminals deliberately sold their officials, embezzled and accepted bribes, in order to destroy the foundation of the rebels. As a result, they got a huge sum of 300 million taels of silver. Now they are willing to confiscate it to the court to show their sincerity. , I hope His Majesty will learn from you!"

"300 million taels?"

It turned out that when Zhu Changhao heard that the imperial army had arrived in the suburbs of Weihui and he knew he had no way out and was about to commit suicide, Ye Chengxue, who was elected by Wang Yongguang and became his close minister, stopped him at this moment, saying that reinforcements had arrived outside and asked him to commit suicide. Going to meet him, Zhu Changhao believed it was true, so he rushed over.

But Zhu Changhao didn't expect that when he came, he would see all his ministers kneeling in the suburbs to welcome the imperial army!
The key leader is Wang Yongguang, whom he has always trusted!
Zhu Changhao was dumbfounded at the time.

Fortunately, these ministers who knelt to welcome the apocalypse didn't notice Zhu Changhao because they were kneeling on the ground with their heads buried.

Zhu Changhao was also able to hear Wang Yongguang's self-confessed betrayal of officials, embezzlement and bribery, in order to ruin his own foundation.

Zhu Changhao couldn't stand it for a while, so much so that he forgot to plead guilty to Tianqi.

Tianqi also saw Zhu Changhao here.

But he ignored Zhu Changhao now, and just continued to ask Wang Yongguang: "So, you really have good intentions? So, those words you praised King Lu in "Ming Li Bao" were just words against your will?"

"Your Majesty is wise! King Lu is just an anti-king, and he is cruel and heartless. He has no heart for the common people and extorts tyranny! He even wants to eat his flesh and sleep on the skin of the court officials who support the reform. He has no heart!"

"How can the criminal sincerely praise the king of rebellion? Even if he wins over the gentry, it is just a conspiracy. The criminal will persuade His Majesty to compete with him for the hearts of the people, but he will never allow him to succeed in the rebellion, which will ruin the order of the world!"

Wang Yongguang said again: "so when the cruel rebellious king wanted to escape to Guanzhong, I did not hesitate to dissuade him from staying, just to let him be captured alive by His Majesty today and be punished by Ming Zhengdian. To serve as a warning to others, not to harm Guanzhong."

"Wang Yongguang!"

Zhu Changhao couldn't take it anymore, he couldn't help but roared, and looked at him with wide eyes.

He wants to eat Wang Yongguang now.

Wang Yongguang was also very shocked when he heard this, and thought: "Didn't Ye Chengxue force him to hang himself? Why is this King Lu here? How does Ye Chengxue do things!"

Seeing Zhang Gui nodding to him, Ye Chengxue wisely escaped from here and headed west.

At this time, Zhu Changhao continued to shout at Wang Yongguang: "Don't you always praise Gu as a benevolent lord?! Why do you have to betray Gu now! Feel your conscience, when Gu didn't respect you, but you Why do you treat Gu like this! You are really damned!"

Civil servants such as Wang Yongguang and Ding Qirui did not answer.

At this time, their answers are meaningless.

In their view, there is no point in reasoning with a pawn they have given up on.

They just didn't expect Zhu Changhao to come here instead of hanging himself in the palace, and this undoubtedly made their current situation a bit embarrassing.

"His Majesty!"

Zhu Changhao knelt down towards Tianqi at this time, and cried out in pain: "The sinful minister should die! The criminal minister should not listen to their rebellion against you, woohoo!"

Tian Qi looked at Zhu Changhao crying, and knew that he was so miserable by these civil servants that he shed tears of regret at this moment, so he was also a little touched.

But Tianqi still said to Zhu Changhao very seriously: "King Lu, look at these people in your fief, which one is not suffering from hunger and cold, which one is not skinny, and even many of them have starved to death and turned into bones! It can be said that these are all caused by you. Yes, because if you hadn't opposed the New Deal, and even rebelled against it, they would have received relief from the court, and even relied on the court to regain their livelihood. Do you now know how much evil you have done?"

Zhu Changhao burst into tears like rain, and only replied again: "The guilty minister deserves to die!"

"You may feel that the life and death of the people has nothing to do with you, as long as your own interests are not damaged, it is even better to get more, and even become the emperor, sitting on the world."

"But you wouldn't have thought that it was because you didn't take them too seriously that you led to this step today. You don't have a brain, you only know how to seek self-interest, and in the end, you were tricked by the scholar-bureaucrats who you think are all saints and gentlemen. , They are also human beings, how could they come to help you if there is no benefit?"

"You don't really think that they are all like the people they say, for the sake of benevolence, they are willing to go through fire and water for you? The words of the saints, they are for you to hear, but it does not mean that they will really follow the words of the saints. do it like that!"

Tian Qi spoke and said: "I am not surprised by today's scene. Besides, winners and losers, just wait, they will use more ugly words to prevent their behavior from being so ugly in the history books. Write yours. Otherwise, how to testify for their righteous deeds today."

Zhu Changhao wept silently. Hearing what Tianqi said, he said: "Your Majesty! I beg you, the guilty ministers, please let them all die! Your Majesty, please let me do it!"

"Why should I fulfill you? You rebelled against me first, and you followed them, thinking that I was a tyrant and a fool. I'm afraid that if I really fell into your hands, you would put me to death without hesitation!"

Apocalypse asked.

Zhu Changhao was at a loss for words for a while, and said: "But your majesty! They are the worst people. They are the ones who instigated the criminal ministers to raise troops. They said that the criminal ministers will win the response of the world; the criminal ministers were used by them!"

"Your Majesty! If you don't punish them severely, Your Majesty, they will become even more rampant, and they will provoke other vassals! Your Majesty, even if the Zhu family is sorry for the common people, they should be executed, but it is not their turn to be tricked and killed like this! "
