Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

"Generally speaking, when the troops return to the imperial court, the imperial court will send a minister of rites to lead officials to welcome them. There are many courtesies among them. There are also arrangements for the route to take after entering the city. In the end, the rebels have to be escorted to the Taimiao to take prisoner. Then When you come down, you will have an audience with the emperor, and an imperial meal must be indispensable."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yong giggled: "Of course, King Anhua is a member of the royal family, and it seems inappropriate to escort him to the Taimiao. Therefore, the entering ceremony this time should be different from the previous ones. How should it be? , the Minister of Rites should care about it again later."

"Imperial food...forget it." When Su Mu thought of the bad food in the palace, he felt a little nauseous, and couldn't help but slander: "It's purely pig food!"

Hearing what Zhang Yong said, everyone couldn't help but smile.

I feel that this matter is really interesting. If King Anhua is escorted to the Taimiao, I don't know how he will face the spirits of the past emperors in heaven.

The army entering Beijing has already settled down, and in the tent of the Chinese army, all the meritorious soldiers are talking and laughing.Thinking of seeing His Majesty the Emperor in the evening, his expression was both excited and apprehensive.But he didn't expect how unpalatable the dish would be when the emperor gave him a banquet.

Even Xie Tianran, who wanted to calm down, was so excited that his body trembled slightly.

It was probably because I was so excited that everyone didn't enjoy this lunch.

After eating and talking and laughing for a long time, Zhang Yong cleared his throat, and told everyone about the precautions and etiquette that should be observed when he enters the city.

Ordinarily, according to the rules of the imperial court, at two quarters in the afternoon, the officials who came to greet the army of the army should go out of the city to meet the meritorious soldiers.

But after sitting in the big tent for about an hour, seeing that it was three o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time, no one came.

Gradually, the generals in the tent felt that something was wrong and began to discuss in low voices.

In autumn in Beijing, the dawn and darkness come early, the sun begins to slowly move west, and the sky is fiery red.

Zhang Yong realized that something was wrong, so he secretly gave Su Mu a wink.

Su Mu Huiyi got up and walked outside together with Zhang Yong.

"Mr. Su, something seems wrong." Today, Zhang Yong still uses the address he used to call Su Mu when he was in the East Palace, to show his closeness.

In fact, Su Mu had a premonition of today's situation, as if Liu Jin had done this in real history.

It's just that he didn't pay much attention to this history when he read the history books at the beginning, so he just read it.

Hearing Zhang Yong's question today, he suddenly became clear in his heart. He turned to look at Zhang Yong, and said calmly, "Perhaps, Liu Jin doesn't want you, Eunuch Zhang, to enter the city at all!"

"You don't want our family to go to the city, but why?" Zhang Yong didn't understand.

Su Mu said indifferently: "Maybe Eunuch Liu is afraid that you, Eunuch Zhang, will use the power of the army to win against him. As for the disadvantage, Eunuch Liu has not thought about it. He will probably think about it all night and make a fuss about it tomorrow. So, Today he doesn't intend to let us go into the city to meet His Majesty."

That's right, Su Mu remembered, in the real history.When Zhang Yong returned to the imperial court, he carried the notebook written by Yang Yiqing in his arms, and Emperor Zhengde, who was about to meet him, sued Liu Jin.Also because of this impeachment document, Liu Jin was accused of colluding with King Anhua and conspiring against others. In the end, Zhang Yong led his troops to capture Liu Jin, and was finally executed by Ling Chi.

To be honest, no one knows Zhengde's nature better than Su Mu, and no one knows Liu Jin's status in the emperor's heart better than Su Mu: that is, Emperor Zhengde's relatives.

Therefore, when Zhang Yong wanted to kill Liu Jin, Su Mu didn't want to get involved.

It is undeniable that Su Mu and Liu Jin had great feuds.But if you want to deal with him, there are plenty of ways in the future.Moreover, Su Mu didn't want Liu Jin's life, which made Zhengde unhappy.Besides, even if he wants to overthrow Liu Jin in the future, he, Su Mu, cannot come forward.

As a modern person, it is meaningless to him to eradicate traitors for the country and to have justice in heaven and earth.The key is to mix well with yourself and take care of your loved ones.

Only on this basis can we talk about other things.

Su Mu felt that he was just an ordinary person, and he didn't have such big ambitions.Compared with the ancients, the greatest advantage of modern people is that they are good at understanding people's hearts. As long as you look at the emperor as an ordinary person, you can clearly know what Zhengde is thinking.

Therefore, Su Mu is not interested in killing Liu Jin, nor does he want to participate.

Zhang Yong was surprised, and unconsciously asked: "How could our family be against Liu Jin, and how did he know?"

When he returned to Beijing this time, his purpose was to get Liu Jin's head.He has already discussed this matter with Yang Yiqing, and the Civil Service Group will fully cooperate with Zhang Yong when the time comes.

Originally, Zhang Yong wanted to do it with Rasumu.After several times of probing, Yang Yiqing keenly found that Su Mu was avoiding this matter intentionally, so under his persuasion, Zhang Yongcai gave up this idea.

However, Su Mu still pretended not to know anything about this matter, and let Zhang Yong collect evidence of Liu Jin's rebellion.

Hearing his question, Su Mu smiled: "Didn't you interrogate King Anhua?"

In real history, Zhang Yong only ordered Liu Jin's life with Yang Yiqing's copy.Now, the confession of Anhua Wang Pan biting Eunuch Liu is even more powerful.If he could see Zhengde, it would be even more fatal when he showed up.

Zhang Yong blushed in a rare old way, and felt a chill in his heart: It seems that news of this matter may have leaked.

But there was still a bit of luck in my heart, and I couldn't help muttering: "No, no."

Su Mu didn't bother to say any more, at this moment, suddenly a soldier came to report that it was an envoy from the imperial court.

After the officers in the big tent got the news, they all beamed with joy and let out a cheer at the same time.

When Su Mu, Zhang Yong, and Hu Shun brought meritorious soldiers to Yuanmen to welcome the court envoys, everyone was dumbfounded.

The expected Minister of Rites did not come, and even the welcoming ceremony was not held.

Just a seventh-rank official from the Ministry of Rites and two attendants, it looks very shabby.

This person's face looked very strange, he must have entered the Ministry of Rites after Su Mu left Beijing.Seeing Su Mu and the others, they also showed arrogance and indifference, and they just cupped their hands: "There is a decree from the Holy Spirit, the army will be stationed outside the city and wait."

Zhang Yong had something on his mind, so he couldn't help asking: "So, when will we wait?"

The Lang Guan snorted and shouted: "I told you to wait, and I will go back to the camp to wait for the order. It's so nonsense. Maybe it's tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, and it's possible to wait for three or five days."

Zhang Yong was so angry that his face turned pale, and he said solemnly: "Is this how the imperial court treats us and other meritorious soldiers? I want to ask you, is this the meaning of Long Live Lord or Liu Jin?"

Zhang Yong knew this person, and he only took up the post of Lang Guan in the Ministry of Rites last month. He was Liu Jin's confidant.

It must have been Liu Jin's idea to send him here at this time.

Just now Su Mu's words came true, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

In this way, Liu Jin really took precautions and prevented everyone from entering the city.After a few days of delay, when Liu Jin has a countermeasure, there will be more dreams in one night, and maybe there is really nothing to do with him.

At this time, he also didn't care about his face, so he directly said what he said, so as to arouse the righteous indignation of all the meritorious soldiers.In this way, there may be opportunities to enter the city.

Official Nalang had been hanging around at the bottom of the officialdom before, but recently he was promoted by Liu Jin's favor, and he became a high-ranking official all of a sudden.Then he was a little carried away, and relying on Liu Jin's power, he didn't take Zhang Yong and others seriously, and said with a sneer: "This is what Eunuch Liu means, and it's also what Long Live Lord means. Isn't it just going to the city to offer prisoners? How old are you?" Something to do. The court has more important matters, so you don't need to worry."

Zhang Yong kept his composure, cupped his hands deliberately and respectfully, and asked, "Then, may I ask your lord, is there any important matter in court?"

Seeing that the famous Zhang Yong was so honest in front of him, the Lang Guan thought he had suppressed him, and he was so proud that he forgot his face, and snorted: "To tell you the truth, Eunuch Liu's elder brother has passed away for two days, today is the It's the day of the burial, and all the officials in the court went to the Liu Mansion to express their condolences, and even the emperor wrote an elegiac couplet. Even if you want to go to the city, you will have nowhere to go. So, let's just stay outside the city for two days."

When the generals in the army heard this, they all blushed with anger.

Zhang Yong looked back at Commander He: "It seems that no matter how much credit we make, we can't compare with a dead man's face. For the sake of a dead man without an official or job, we have to let us die for the court." The hero of blood is drinking the northwest wind outside the city. I have no choice but to wrong you, who told me that Zhang Yong is incompetent, and I don’t have the power like Liu Jin.”

"The thief, the thief Liu Jin, kill me!" Suddenly, Commander He of Shaanxi Town rushed forward, jumped on his horse, and shouted: "We have made such great contributions to the country, and we are still being left in the wild!" Drinking the wind and eating the sand, there is no such reason in the world. Go, rush into the city, and go to the Long Live Lord to judge!"

Commander He had a heated fight with Zhang Yong recently, and he just won the title of earl. It is estimated that he can get a reward, and Zhang Yong also said hello.Maybe he had already voted for Eunuch Zhang, Zhang Yong went over with a color, and Commander He took the lead in attacking.

"Yes, go to Lord Long Live for a theory!"

With Commander He taking the lead, the others followed suit.They went to look for war horses one after another, and wanted to follow them into the city.

Even Hu Shun was furious, and with Hu Jinxue he was going to gather troops.

For a moment, the gloominess was like a tide, and the Lang Guan turned pale with shock: "Rebellion, rebellion, are you going to rebel?"

But at this time, who is willing to listen to him?

Su Mu could see clearly from the side, but he was powerless to stop him.

Up to now, he can only be a spectator.

With a wry smile, he pulled the official Lang up: "My lord, stand up straight. I didn't say that Eunuch Liu did too much this time. My lord, let's go."

"Rebellion, rebellion!" The man was still screaming, but he was powerless to stop the army from moving.

In less than half an hour, Zhang Yong and Hu Shun raised their troops together, and more than 2000 people marched towards Deshengmen mightily.

Zhang Yong had already made up his mind and was going to rush into the city by force. As long as he could see the emperor and expose Liu Jin's guilt, he would be able to deal with this big enemy smoothly.
