I am the carpenter king

Chapter 589 Sunrise

The red light sprinkled on the water, the whole river was dyed red, the sun just came out, and the earth just had light.Emperor Apocalypse's fleet has slowly started, and the [-] capital troops on both sides of the strait have already set off and left [-] in the middle of the night.

Emperor Tianqi stood at the bow of the boat without the slightest expression on his face, but at this time Emperor Tianqi once again had a sword hanging from his waist.Pressing the hilt of the sword with his right hand, Emperor Tianqi's body revealed a faint chill.

Standing respectfully behind Emperor Tianqi, Chen Hong still had a smile on his face, but the whisk in his hand was changed.This is Chen Hong's unique weapon, because Chen Hong seldom uses it because he is serving Emperor Tianqi.This whisk is different from ordinary whisks, the whole handle is longer than normal whisks, and it is forged with high-quality refined steel.Although the front end of the handle is no longer made of animal hair, but is made of intertwined beef tendons, the toughness is not inferior to steel, and it is difficult to cut off.

For Chen Hong, this whisk had never had a chance to be used. It was always stored in a wooden box except that it was carried with him in Liaodong.This time, after getting permission from Emperor Tianqi, Chen Hong took it out.Although Chen Hong has practiced eagle claws, this weapon is also indispensable.

Emperor Tianqi's heart was very calm at this time, and the nervousness and excitement that he thought would appear, all of a sudden disappeared at this moment.

In Nanjing City, the city gates were tightly closed, and soldiers were everywhere on the streets.On the road at the gate of the city, a roadblock was put up early, and the soldiers guarding the city stood there expressionlessly.

Several teams of soldiers in the city rode horses, held gongs in their hands, and knocked as they walked, saying: "In order to arrest the invaders, the city is under martial law, and the city gates are closed! Nobody is allowed to go out on the streets!"

Although many people still didn't understand, and there were bold and curious people who wanted to come out to take a look, but they were either caught by the patrolling soldiers, or they were frightened back.The whole city of Nanjing was full of panic, and no one knew what had happened.

Many officials were puzzled.Who gave this order?How many years has there been such a thing in Nanjing City, who has such power in Nanjing?Could it be the military governor's mansion?Wei Guogong, what happened?Countless questions linger in most people's minds!

Many people have the mentality that more things are worse than less things. Of course, they are not ordinary people, but officials of Nanjing City.However, there are also a small number of officials who do not believe in this evil, and Wang Lun is one of them!

Wang Lun's official position is not low, and he is the censor of the left capital of the third rank!Although Nanjing's Metropolitan Procuratorate is not as good as Beijing's, Zuodu Yushi is the official of science and Taoism, and he is also the leader of the literary world!Wang Lun would not have come to Nanjing if he hadn't angered Emperor Wanli because of his letter.

Although more than 50 years old.But Wang Lun's temper was still very hot. Hearing that someone blocked the street, he came to the door with a gloomy face.

"My lord, the martial law is enforced outside, so you won't go to the yamen today?" The old housekeeper walked over with a bit of worry on his face.The time in Nanjing is turbulent, and the old housekeeper can feel it.

"Where is all this nonsense? Prepare the sedan chair, I want to see whose handwriting it is!" Wang Lun straightened his black gauze.With a bit of determination on his face, he said in an unquestionable voice.

The old butler wanted to say something more.However, after being glared at by Wang Lun, he immediately swallowed his words back and turned to ask someone to prepare.

Before he had gone far, Wang Lun met a group of soldiers, or was blocked by a group of soldiers.Without waiting for anyone to report back, Wang Lun has already stepped down from his favored son.He said to the housekeeper, "Let their bosses talk back!" From Wang Lun's point of view, the people here are not even qualified to talk back, but he has to figure out what's going on first.

Not long after, a military officer came over and looked at it from his clothes.Wang Lun knew that this was a general banner of the seventh rank.For Wang Lun, the General Banner of the Seventh Grade is not worthy of speaking with him.

"Little Feng De, I have met you!" Without any surprise, Feng De knelt down in the distance with a very humble attitude.

"What are you doing on the street?" Wang Lun glanced at Feng De who was kneeling on the ground, but he didn't speak, and it was the butler on the side who asked.

However, Feng De was not surprised, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face, and he said: "My lord, we have ordered the military order of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion to enforce martial law here! If your lord is going to work in the yamen, then please feel free, my lord!" "

Slightly taken aback, Wang Lun frowned, feeling that something was wrong.But it wasn't very clear, after a few glances at Feng De who was kneeling on the ground, Wang Lun turned around and walked back to the sedan chair.But this time he didn't tell the housekeeper to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but said in a deep voice, "Go to the Mansion of the Governor of the Five Armies!"

"My lord, is it wrong to go straight to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion?" Not far from the sedan chair, the housekeeper asked in a low voice at the curtain of the sedan chair.

"There is nothing wrong with it. If the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies dares to do this, then someone must let him do it. In Nanjing, there are not many people who can make the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies go to war like this, except for the imperial envoy who is in the imperial envoy. I am going now Make sure, what is going on!" Wang Lun's tone was very flat, but also very firm.

In Nanjing at this time, Wang Lun was not a special case. Many officials were afraid and stayed at home.However, some officials still walked out of the house, some went directly to the yamen as errands, some went to the five army governor's mansion, and some went directly to the imperial envoy's office.

In Wei Guogong's mansion, Uncle An Xiang glanced at the soldiers behind him, with a very ferocious expression on his face.Behind him are 1000 people, his cronies!Looking at the closed gate of Duke Wei's mansion, An Xiangbo raised his hand and said, "Duke Wei is harboring fugitives, surround the mansion of Duke Wei!"

The soldiers behind looked at each other in blank dismay. Although they were all An Xiangbo's confidantes, it didn't mean that they were all fools.Qianhu, who leads the army, is loyal to Uncle An Xiang, but not all the soldiers below are all!Asking them to surround Wei Guogong's mansion, these people couldn't help but muttered in their hearts.

"Go! I'm deaf, don't you hear me?" Qianhu Chuqian was following An Xiangbo, and his face was a little uneasy at this moment.On weekdays, Uncle An Xiang brags a lot in front of him, but now he has done this.Looking back with piercing eyes, the expression on his face couldn't help but become a bit ferocious.

The people below moved this time, hundreds of households led the team separately, and both the general flag and the small flag rushed out with their people.After a short time, the entire Duke Wei's mansion was surrounded.

Sitting on the horse, Uncle An Xiang's face was gloomy and terrible, and he gave Chu Qian a hard look, his face was almost dripping water.It's just that they surrounded Duke Wei's mansion, and these people are so cautious. If there is a fight, can I count on them?

Glancing at another Qianhu Wei Yu beside him, An Xiangbo said coldly, "Wei Yu, won't your people be like this?"

"Don't worry, my lord, absolutely not! These people are all trained by their subordinates, and there will never be any mistakes!" Wei Yu was full of confidence, and at the same time he gave Chu Qian a provocative look!

"Call the door!" Nodding his head, An Xiangbo said in a deep voice.The matter has come to this point, there is no need to delay, as the saying goes, there is no turning back, so we can't waste time here.

But the person calling the door hadn't stepped forward, and many people suddenly appeared on the gate tower and the wall of Duke Wei's mansion.The most attractive thing is not these people, but the weapons in their hands!Most of them are bows and arrows, but there are all guns on both sides of the gate.

"Uncle An Xiang, I really didn't expect that it was you who came here! My Duke thought it was someone else! You are so bewitched by a ghost, you deserve to die!" A voice sounded in the mansion, the tone full of Disdain and ridicule.

The sound made An Xiangbo shake like he was struck by lightning, almost falling off his horse.Holding the rein tightly, Uncle An Xiang didn't fall off, but his expression became very disturbed.Glancing at the gate in front of him, An Xiangbo said loudly: "Who is talking? This is the spirit of Wei Guogong's mansion?"

A hearty laugh came from inside, and a disdainful Wei Guogong suddenly appeared on the wall.Looking at Uncle An Xiang with disdain, he said with a smile: "Uncle An Xiang, do you really not know who the Duke is, or do you dare not recognize him?"

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be bedridden? No, you should be dead!" An Xiangbo was shocked, his face was full of disbelief, what's going on?When he heard the voice just now, Uncle An Xiang still felt lucky in his heart, but when he saw Duke Wei himself, he could no longer take it lightly!

"What do idiots like you know? You can only be someone else's pawn for the rest of your life, and you really think you have no plans? You don't even look at what you are, and you want to fight your own country!" Wei Guogong mocked An Xiangbo a few words, Then he turned his eyes to the soldiers on one side, and said loudly: "Uncle An Xiang is plotting something wrong. He is going to rebel. Do you want to rebel too? Now put down the butcher knife in your hand, and the Lord of the country promises to let the past go!"

Uncle An Xiang didn't listen to a word of Wei Guogong's words!His mind is in a mess right now.What happened?Could it be that Fang Shihong lied to himself?impossible!He had no reason to lie to himself.So what's going on?A few thoughts flashed through An Xiangbo's mind, but a look of madness soon flashed across his face.

No matter what is going on, how can you be merciful at this time?Glancing at Wei Yu beside him, he said loudly: "The Duke of Wei's mansion harbors and assassinates the imperial convicts, plotting against the law, and the imperial envoy ordered their arrest! Everyone, listen, rush in now! Capture Wei Guogong alive, and apprehend the imperial convicts!"

There was madness on An Xiangbo's face, but he knew very well in his heart that if it was a rebellion, these soldiers might not dare to rush in.No matter what the reason, as long as they rush in, they can't get rid of the responsibility, they can only rebel with themselves! (To be continued..)
