I have a cornucopia

Chapter 110 Jie Zhou, you Jie Zhou

"Your Majesty, I would rather die than sit back and watch His Majesty abandon the Twelve Tombs."

A minister said simply.

"I would rather die than sit back and watch His Majesty abandon the Twelve Tombs."

Other ministers shouted.

Chongzhen stood there in shame and anger, as if he was a middle-aged man who suddenly lost all his clothes in the presence of countless people and was displaying his bloated body. In fact, he knew very well that the persistence of these ministers was to deliberately let others down. He had to keep exhibiting here. Tell everyone that he is the one who abandoned his capital, his subjects, his ancestral tombs, and fled in front of the bandits. No matter what the reason, this fact cannot be concealed.

For a person with his temper, it feels like life would be worse than death at this moment.

"Long live my lord, shall we kill or not?"

Yang Feng is still urging.

Chongzhen...

After all, the Liu Mengyan family has been imprisoned to this day and still cannot stand up. It is estimated that their family will not have a chance to stand up until the Ming Dynasty is destroyed.

He just loves Yuanyuan too much.

Very scary.

What if he enters the capital and is still a bandit?
Don’t dare to gamble!

But Wu Sangui doesn’t need to care about this!
In the Ming Dynasty, civil servants made decisions. He was just a worker and did not need to bear the main responsibility. Originally, he was whipped to death repeatedly in history. The key was actually that he rebelled again and gave the civil servants a chance. In fact, even before he rebelled, even Wu The only thing he dares to explain to him is that great achievements can only be explained to him as a result of anger and beauty.

Really clever!

Dorgon didn't ask for much.

If he really said kill, then Yang Feng would really kill. Anyway, he would be the one to bear the responsibility in the end.

He really wanted to boost his power.

He arrested Fu Haishan, the Wu family's housekeeper.

Of course it is good to have Chongzhen's imperial edict, but can't we do it without Chongzhen's edict? This kind of thing can't be that complicated. His uncle is there, his eldest brother is also there, and there are countless relatives and friends there. It's just a matter of asking a confidant to go there. And in fact, Dorgon was already prepared and was waiting for the envoy here to complete the formal procedures. Dorgon promised that as long as the Ming Emperor signed the alliance, 60,000 Qing troops would enter the customs at any time to wipe out rogue bandits for the Ming Dynasty. They had already negotiated in secret, and all that was needed was a formality, and after last year's fiasco, Dorgon didn't have much ambition. He just offered five million, and then they could capture slaves and allow trade to ensure that the food in Jiangnan could be sold. To Liaodong.

This guy is a thief!

Still just a bandit.

Academician Wei suddenly let out a short scream like a toad, and then his body suddenly straightened...

They take this very seriously.

Many people still turned their heads and looked back from time to time.

The next moment, Yang Feng's stick fell with a roar. Academician Wei screamed and threw himself aside. As a result, the stick that was supposed to fall on his head hit him directly on the waist.

He already got what he wanted, so why should he wear the hat of a rebellious minister?
He didn't force her to have a baby.

They were waiting for Wu Sangui. After all, they alone were not enough. The one who could really determine the success or failure of this matter had to be Wu Sangui's five thousand elites. However, what disappointed them was that Wu Sangui never showed up. A group of Guan Ning Army soldiers behind were even retreating.

Lao Wu is a smart man.

But the problem is that there is no room for retreat in this matter!
If Chongzhen did not issue an order, they would not be able to use troops to suppress the bandits. They would have to face Li Zicheng. Although this was actually an option, for them, if they could not face Li Zicheng, they would still have to try not to face him. After all, until now, Li Zicheng has They didn't see the changes they expected.

It was the one who originally ran from the capital to find Wu Sangui.

Besides, this kind of thing has to be decided by the prince, the cabinet, and the six ministers. How could Wu Sangui, a military general who did not interfere with the government's affairs, be qualified to make such a decision? When did it become the military general's turn to intervene in the government's affairs in the Ming Dynasty? These civil servants need to struggle and need a memorial arch, so as to put the responsibility of borrowing troops to suppress the bandits on Chongzhen. They are all loyal ministers, loyal, filial and righteous, and have a long history, so they cannot borrow troops to suppress the bandits by themselves. Once something goes wrong, he will be infamy for eternity and be ranked alongside the treacherous officials.

This was asked by Yang Feng last night when he caught a person who participated in the secret conversation at Liu Yuyou's house.

As for borrowing troops to suppress the bandits...

"what……"

This bastard is just waiting to kill someone.

They have a lot in common with Wu Weiye and others, and they all know the importance of using opera to whiten their skin.

With the Great Wall as the boundary, some coins will be given every year.

Wei Zaode said cautiously.

But in fact, the plan to use troops to suppress the bandits was made by Wang Yongji, the governor of Jiliao.

"Your Majesty has a decree. Anyone who dares to use troops to suppress the bandits will be punished for treason!"

There is also an interesting historical anecdote about him. Although he surrendered when Li Zicheng came to Beijing and was beaten in public by Wang Dehua because he was eager to be promoted to an official position, he later wrote a play and hired a theater troupe to rehearse it when he was the chief envoy of Zhejiang in the Qing Dynasty. , said that he had hanged himself at that time, but did not die. He was saved by his neighbor, so he was an immortal hero. He tried to cover up the fact that he had surrendered to Li Zicheng, and even relied on his power to place his own tablet in the Xunxian Temple in Hangzhou. However, Later, he was smashed by someone who knew the truth.

But he will no longer count on the loyalty of the northern ministers. He will also change from the Holy Lord and Mingjun in his imagination to a tyrant, and a tyrant who escapes from battle...

Amidst Zhang Shangshu's frightened screams, the loyal and brave captain Yang Qing said seriously.

He was just kidnapped into the palace, he couldn't help himself.

The ministers were trembling.

But because his whole body was weak, he was actually squirming in place.

Next to him, Zhang Jinyan, Minister of War, screamed in horror and collapsed there, trying to crawl away.

"Your Majesty, what I want is to use troops to suppress the bandits. As long as your Majesty orders it, I will never dare to stop you. Now that rebellion is so close, the capital has no troops and no food. Even if Ping Xibo stays behind, he will not be able to do anything. To resist the invasion of hundreds of thousands of troops, only by borrowing troops to suppress the bandits can the capital be preserved."

What's wrong with him?

He is just a participant.

Of course, because of the issue of troop strength, he is the most important participant.

And it is indispensable without him.

After all, he has direct access to Gungun.

But he was not the mastermind, at least he was not the one who proposed the plan to use troops to suppress the bandits.

The mastermind Wang Yongji, the participants, Song Quan, the governor of Miyun, and Gao Di, the real commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, also had a heavy army, with 10,000 Shanhaiguan defenders, but in the end he was responsible for the infamy of attracting the Qing army to enter the customs. Because the real mastermind Wang Yongji belonged to the southern literati group that later had the right to speak, no one would emphasize his mastermind in history books. And the Song family is the top famous family in our Qing Dynasty, with the level of emperor and master, and no one will mention it. The Gaodi family later turned into civil servants, married with the Song family, and became hidden among the gentry. It is also a famous family in our Qing Dynasty that has been around for generations.

No one would go out of their way to emphasize these people. He was the only one who became the target of evil because he rebelled later. To criticize him was politically correct, and I, the Qing Dynasty, also liked it.

But now he still doesn't need to be the mastermind.

And Chongzhen had given him what he wanted, and he had been held hostage before.

No need to come over at all.

Not stabbing these civil servants in the back is enough to give them face.

After all, he will need these people in the future.

Chongzhen also discovered the retreat of Guan Ning.

"I say it again, get out of the way immediately, otherwise you will be punished as a grave treason."

he shouted.

The ministers looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, I am very loyal. If I can make your Majesty wake up, I will give you the axe."

One of them said through gritted teeth. "Long live my lord, shall we kill or not?"

Yang Feng asked.

Chongzhen...

"kill!"

His Majesty the Emperor finally regained his power.

As soon as he said these words, Yang Feng let out a very happy howl, swung the big stick, and smashed it down among the red and cyan in front, just like hitting a pile of porcelain, instantly smashing out a piece of Scattered.

Escape, of course.

However, Yang Feng was not interested in anything else. Anyway, he would hit the official uniforms in front of him. If he ran too slowly, he would be killed. If he ran too fast, he would get out of the way. However, when his big stick hit the ground with the sound of the wind, the front of him was filled with chaos. Scream. Chongzhen's carriage moved forward behind, its wheels running over the ministers who were knocked down. The ministers on both sides who had run away wailed and followed Yang Feng who opened the way and continued forward...

"Jie Zhou, you Jie Zhou!"

A minister in the crowd, who was finally safe, howled like he collapsed.

Chongzhen was in the carriage with the curtains lowered, as motionless as a wooden sculpture with his eyes closed.

Yang Feng in front continued to smash wildly.

But at this time, no one dared to stand in front of him, they had already run into the crowd on both sides.

"It would be great if it was like this earlier. Why bother talking nonsense with them? In the time of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Gao, everything like this would be in vain."

Yang Feng said dissatisfiedly.

"Yang Qing, the captain of the Jinyi Guards, is guarding His Majesty Nan Xing. Anyone who dares to stop the holy driver will rebel against the three barbarian tribes!"

he shouted immediately.

This identity must be clear.

However, no one exposed him. After all, if he was exposed, he would fall out. After all, no matter how cruel he was, it would only be after Chongzhen gave the order. The civil servants and gentry who stopped him in the capital had already fallen out with Chongzhen, but with Yang Feng and him The Shandong gentry behind them did not. In fact, Yang Feng has mastered the strongest army in the north of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and may need to beg him in the future. Therefore, not only cannot his identity be revealed, but he has to help confirm Yang Qing, the Imperial Guards School Captain. There is Yang Qing, who is so brave. As a minion of Chongzhen, he killed loyal ministers under Chongzhen's order. He and Governor Yang are completely two people. Why is Yang Qing the same as Yang Feng?
nonsense!

Governor Yang is still thousands of miles away!

Just relying on Yang Feng to clear the way, Chongzhen's car continued to move forward, and no one tried to attack him again.

Regicide is definitely not an option.

At least not openly.

And Wu Sangui never showed up.

But at the same time, in the palace behind, His Royal Highness was completely confused. Cao Huachun led the eunuchs to welcome him to Qianqing Palace, and Zhang Yan was also invited there. The two people were caught off guard and became The new master of the palace. Just when Chongzhen turned east and continued toward Chaoyang Gate along the street with countless subjects watching, Cao Huachun had already completed the imperial edict at the Bureau of Ceremonies and formally ordered Wu Sangui to governor Jingying with the prince's edict. When Chongzhen finally walked out of Chaoyang Gate as if he was being tortured, the civil servants and generals who did not participate in intercepting the Holy Driver had already arrived at Huangji Hall and asked Queen Yi'an and the Prince to come out.

As for seeing off the emperor...

Don’t you think he is embarrassing enough?

At this time, just think that he has left!
Even when Chongzhen finally left the city, even his official explanation of Nan Xing had been concocted by a group of civil servants.

Just move his Nanxing date forward one day.

He left yesterday.

And nothing unusual happened. The ministers blocked the door, the emperor slaughtered the loyal ministers, and the unruly people stormed the palace. None of it happened. The night before yesterday, Emperor Taizu Gao had another dream, accusing the emperor of taking too long, so the emperor His Majesty decided to set off in a hurry. However, since the preparations for Ping Xibo's imperial camp have not been completed, there is no need to escort him. After all, he still has to guard the capital, so he was allowed to stay in the capital. Then, His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress, in the grand farewell of the subjects of the capital, left at noon yesterday Set off to leave the capital.

It’s not like he’s not coming back.

His Majesty the Emperor just went to Nandu to pay homage to the Xiaoling Mausoleum.

I'll be back in a year at most.

Of course, whether the capital of Ming Dynasty can last for a year is another matter.

As for other accompanying people, they will wait until the canal thaws in spring before heading south one after another.

Outside Chaoyang Gate.

His Majesty the Emperor silently looked at the capital behind him.

There are crowds of people on the city walls, and there are also crowds of people in front of the city gate...

"Eunuch Wang, have you brought any money?"

Yang Feng said suddenly.

"What do you want the money for?"

Lao Wang said warily.

"Well, don't worry too much. I'm not interested in money. But there are so many of you, at least until you get to Tianjin. I don't think there will be any loyal people to provide you with food and drinks. You will probably have to spend money to buy them."

Yang Feng said.

Among those senior fellow villagers, there were a lot of people from Tongzhou and Miao County. It would be impossible to expect them to welcome the Holy Emperor. His Majesty, the former emperor, would have to live in exile to find Feng Yuanyang in Tianjin. However, Chongzhen still has hard days to come. According to the original plan, he should bring Wu Sangui's five thousand cavalry to Nanjing to quickly suppress the ministers. But now there is nothing. If the polished commander passes, he can still hope that the ministers in Jiangnan will be honest. It’s really hard to be obedient.

Lao Wang calmly opened a box behind the carriage, and a golden light shone inside.

"My family didn't bring any silver, but we did bring a thousand taels of gold."

He said.

"I can rest assured that."

Yang Feng said.

"How to go forward?"

Chongzhen asked.

"Go forward to Baliqiao, then to Tongzhou, go south from Tongzhou to Zhangjiawan, cross Zhangjiawan to Miao County and follow the road to Tianjin. It will take about four days."

Yang Feng said.

"Other than that?"

Chongzhen asked.

"Other than that? There is no major road to Tianjin. The most you can do is go south to Majuqiao, then go to Yuanjiakou to Hejian, and then continue south to Dezhou."

Yang Feng said.

"Take this route, send someone to Tianjin, and order Feng Yuanyang to go south to meet him in Dezhou."

Chongzhen said.

Yang Feng smiled slightly.

His Majesty the Emperor is still a little shy!
"In this case, it is better to let him go to Yuanjiakou, and then escort His Majesty to Hejian. Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to get to Hejian. Even if he is irrational, it will only cause more trouble in vain. On the way to Yuanjiakou, we will have enough for Feng Yuanyang to guide him. Lead the cavalry to the entrance of Yuanjia."

Yang Feng said very thoughtfully.

Chongzhen nodded and quickly lowered the curtain.
