Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 383 There Are 70 Troops Behind Me

Annan Palace.

Mo Fuyuan, king of Yongding, sat on the dragon chair, coughing unceasingly.

Chen Chong, the Minister of the Inner Court, and Mo Fulun, the Second Prince, stood under His Highness.

Chen Chongdao: "Your Majesty, the Eldest Prince colluded with Ruan Qing and assembled an army without authorization, intending to join forces with the Ming army and annex us in Annan. The evidence is solid! This time Ruan Qing returned to Beijing and even brought two spies from the Ming Kingdom! If the Second Prince hadn't defeated their plot in time, I'm afraid that the country of Annan Kingdom would fall into the hands of Ming Dynasty."

The second prince hurriedly said: "Father, please make a decree to execute eldest brother and Ruan Qing."

King Yongding has eaten more rice than the second prince.He has been the king for 40 years, and the city is extremely deep.How could he fail to see who was dispatching troops without authorization, and who was plotting wrongdoing?

Although Ruan Qing, the appeasement envoy of the three northern provinces and the minister of the Ministry of War, is in charge of most of the country's soldiers and horses.But more than a month ago, Chen Chong, the minister of the inner court, told the second prince: "We only need to control two thousand soldiers in the capital to defeat Ruan Qing and the eldest prince!"

Chen Chong promised the generals in the capital high officials and rich salary, and controlled all the soldiers and horses in the capital.

Now, inside and outside the palace, there are people from the second prince and Chen Chong!
King Yongding said: "This king must meet Ruan Qing and those two Ming people before making a decision?"

The second prince walked up to the old king aggressively: "Father, you don't need to see me anymore! You only need to issue the imperial decree. Come, I will write the decree for you, and you will seal it!"

King Yongding said angrily: "Bold! The king's decree can only be drawn up by himself. Do you want to rebel?"

Chen Chong quickly smoothed things over: "Second prince, don't be impatient. His Majesty the King wants to see them, so let them meet at court tomorrow morning!"

After speaking, Chen Chong and the second prince left the palace.

The second prince complained: "Why do you stop me from letting the old man order to kill eldest brother and Ruan Qing? There are so many dreams in the night!"

Chen Chong said, "Second prince, the defense of the capital is now in our hands. It is easy for us to kill Ruan Qing and the eldest prince. Why are you in a hurry to tear yourself apart with His Majesty the King? After all, you are father and son." There is a saying in the Han people that the name is right and the words are right. Only by coercing His Majesty the king to give way to you in front of the ministers will your throne be justified! The ministers will be convinced!"

The second prince said: "Chen Chong, sometimes you always overcomplicate simple things! I will bring ten soldiers to the emperor's face directly. He writes the abdication edict, and I will spare his life. If you don't write it, I'll kill him and make myself king!"

Chen Chong shook his head: "Second prince, you should listen to me! Tomorrow morning, in front of all the officials, I will count the crimes of the eldest prince and Ruan Qing, and execute them! Then I will force His Majesty the king to abdicate. "

Chen Chong decided so, and the second prince could not refute it.Because the second prince is just Chen Chong's puppet!The army in the capital does not take orders from the second prince, but only takes orders from Chen Chong.

On the second day, the Annan court went to court early.

Ruan Qing, the eldest prince, He Liu, and Sangji Danju were brought to the palace.

Chen Chong questioned Ruan Qing: "Ruan Qing, although you are the minister of the Ministry of War, I have control in Annan. The minister of the Ministry of War only has the right to command the army, not the right to deploy troops. The right to deploy troops is in the hands of His Majesty the King. You privately mobilized the troops of the three northern provinces with the intention of fighting with the eldest prince. , Cooperating with the Ming army to usurp the throne, the evidence is solid! What else can you say?"

Ruan Qinglang said: "I only assembled the army after receiving the imperial decree to dispatch troops! That imperial decree seems to have been forged by you, Chen Inner Court!"

Chen Chong and Ruan Qing chattered in the court hall.He Liu and Sangji Danju didn't understand a single word.

Finally, King Yongding spoke.The Annan royal family had to learn the language of the main country, Ming Dynasty, since childhood.King Yongding asked He Liu in Chinese: "Are you a spy from the Ming Kingdom?"

He Liu said in a loud voice: "I am Jin Yiwei North Town Fushi of Daming, not some kind of spy!"

King Yongding said: "Then why did you follow Ruan Qing to the capital?"

He Liubian lied: "Your country's 2 people invaded Ming! My Emperor Ming was furious! Daming has assembled 70 troops on the border of Guangxi! My Emperor Ming sent me into the capital city of Annan to ask, is your Annan the It’s not that you want to be an enemy of Ming Dynasty! If so, 70 Ming troops will annex your Annan, abolish your country title, and turn Annan into the chief envoy of the Ming Dynasty again! This is not difficult. Isn't that what you do?"

In fact, the Guangxi frontier army adds up to only 70, how can there be [-]?

He Liu is bragging to scare the Annan people. I have 70 troops behind me!If you dare to touch Lao Tzu, be careful that Ming will destroy your country!
In the palace, all the officials who knew Chinese were shocked when they heard the words!Even Chen Chong, the Minister of the Inner Court, turned pale with fright.

Annan people have always respected Daming.They think too highly of Daming!In fact, if the Ming Dynasty really used 70 troops to march south, the food, grass and military pay would really not be enough.

Chen Chong took it seriously, and murmured in his heart.The second prince swore, "Father! What is the 70 Ming army? One of our Annan warriors can count as ten! You give me all the soldiers and horses in the whole country. I will definitely defeat the Ming army."

King Yongding couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words: "Take one as ten? Even if it is true, the 3 people in our country can only fight against 30 Ming troops. But the Ming army that attacked us has 70 people!"

The second prince asked, "Then what do you think my father should do?"

King Yongding said to He Liu: "Your envoy, please go back and tell the great emperor of your country. We Annan have always regarded him as our father and Ming as our country. Annan has no intention of being an enemy of Ming! Please forgive him , withdraw troops."

He Liu said loudly: "Okay! You send someone to send us back to Daming territory. I will convey your words to the emperor."

King Yongding said: "Chen Chong, just follow the instructions of the envoy!"

Chen Chong did not object.Although He Liu is unarmed now, behind him, there is a powerful Daming backing him up!Chen Chong didn't dare to do anything to He Liu.What is Shangbang Guowei, this is called Guowei!

The second prince wanted to say more, but Chen Chong gave him a wink.

At this moment, "clang clang!" Countless tiles fell from the roof of the palace.

"Plop!" A huge monster descended from the sky!
