Coincidentally, in the southwest of Nanjing City, outside the Jubao Gate, there is a key pass city, called Yuecheng.

Originally, it was used to defend the city of Nanjing, and at this time tens of thousands of troops had been stationed.

Among them, there are more than 30,000 people, and they are new troops that have just been trained by Qian Sudian's uncle and nephew.

At this time, the uncle and nephew were also entangled in the arrival of the prison country and the imperial court.

Their uncles and nephews can be described as loyal and righteous people, and they have been exposed to Qian Sule's thoughts since they were children, and there is no doubt about their loyalty to the country and the monarch.

But the uncle and nephew are young people, and young people want to change, not only to change the status quo, but also to change the future.

If it's just a martial artist who doesn't know a lot of big characters, then he just obeys orders.

But their uncles and nephews are people who read poetry and books.

Reading books to understand etiquette and righteousness, but reading books will also make people know many things, things, and etiquette that are not mentioned in books.

It's like an ant on the ground, getting stronger and stronger, and at the same time, it longs to climb higher and see things that it couldn't see before, until one day, it realizes that it may fly into the sky to see more.

If the two of them don't meet in this troubled world, they may be able to keep to themselves, make a move or a jinshi, and make a county order or higher.

But now, they are all thousands of households, thousands of households who have experienced blood and fire.

It is very destructive, and on the contrary, it is also very constructive.

"Uncle Nine, what do you think of Jing Haihou? I thought he was Cao Cao, but now it seems that he is to blame. ”

Qian Sudian was also puzzled, "I can't understand either, it stands to reason that it is easy for him to stop the prison country in Pinggang Mountain, and any reason can stop the imperial court from moving north, so that he can control the overall situation in Yingtianfu." And you and I both know in our hearts that whether it is from selfish desires or justice, it is more in line with the needs of today's situation that he is in charge of the overall situation of Ying Tianfu. His Royal Highness is too difficult to figure out, since His Royal Highness has been in charge of the country for a year, although he is wise and fair, but after all, he is a woman, he does not understand military affairs, and he is afraid that he will not be able to recover from the Northern Expedition...... Hey, his mind is too hard to figure out. ”

"Yes, but that's fine, if he really has different intentions, I'm afraid it will be really difficult for you and me to convince Mr. and Daddy, in the end, this matter will not make the family restless?"

Qian Sudian glared at his nephew, "Three days and four days, the way to take trouble." Since you and I have the heart to change the world, we should be persistent in our own opinions, how can we change the order overnight? Moreover, above the court, there are many orders, and those in high positions are mediocre and do not think about counterattacking the Northern Expedition. If this continues, the day when the Qing army will go south is not far away. ”

Qian Qiaogong said with a bitter face: "You and I don't want to, but now Mr. and the others have already been waiting for him, and they want to welcome King Lu to the throne and become emperor, I don't know if they have communicated privately, if my father also agrees with this matter, then this matter has become a foregone conclusion." It's up to you and me, how can we change, and if Jinghaihou agrees, how can you and I persuade you to force water according to the bull's head, right? ”

Qian Sudian frowned and said: "This matter is indeed difficult to solve, His Royal Highness is a woman, and it is difficult to persuade the people to ascend the throne, if Jinghaihou can stay in the imperial court in Pinggang Mountain, as long as there are no people, even if these people in the city want to persuade them, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed...... Hey, it's all to blame on this Wu Zheng. ”

Qian Qiaogong said: "But right now, Xia Wanchun and others are still waiting for you and me to reply, he can say, he is the main believer, he will not participate, but if he really wants to cause infighting for this matter, he would rather resign and go back to Songjiang Mansion to fish." ”

"Yes, the strong enemy is current, this matter is really tricky, now the three sides in the city are standing, Xingguo Gong, Xia Wanchun and you and me, Xingguo Gong is the strongest, you and I are second, Xia Wanchun is the weakest. Originally, if Jinghaihou was here, the matter could be decided in a word, but he went to Pinggang Mountain, and the attitude of his generals on this matter was very prevaricating. If this continues, I am afraid that the battle between the prison state and the king of Lu for the throne will be inevitable. ”

Qian Qiaogong said suddenly: "If you are the king of Lu, the result is that if you are in Shaoxing, in my opinion, as long as Wu Zheng does not object, he will still support the promotion of His Royal Highness the Prison State." ”

Qian Sudian said: "His Royal Highness is a woman, how can Chen Zilong and his class be convinced?" ”

Qian Qiaogong said: "Yes, it would be nice if Wu Zheng arrived earlier than His Highness and others." But he was still stranded in Hangzhou...... Hey, if you really want to make trouble, Xia Wanchun must not abandon Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen is his mentor and close friend of his deceased father, this relationship must not let him stay out of the matter. To make matters more difficult, it is unclear what my father's opinion is on the matter. ”

Qian Sudian thought for a while and said: "The matter is imminent, and for now, it is best to maintain the status quo, so that at least it will not make a few words out of control." ”

Qian Qiaogong frowned and said, "Uncle means to press Mr. Chen and the others and not let them persuade them?" ”

Qian Sudian nodded and said: "This is the best way, His Royal Highness has already supervised the country for a day, as long as the status quo remains unchanged, nothing big will happen." ”

"But you also know Mr. Chen's temper, persuasion alone is definitely not, and you and I can't forcibly stop it, which will cause a confrontation between our department and Xia Wanchun's department. Besides, even if Mr. Chen and the others are taken care of, when His Royal Highness Jian Guo arrives, they can't be let not show up, right? After all, he is an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, when King Lu was in charge of the country, he was awarded the secretary of the military department, and the military of the seven provinces was controlled, and when the king of Tang ascended the throne, he also gave him the position of left squire of the military department and the imperial history of the left capital, although he did not accept it, but after all, his identity was special. ”

Qian Sudian gritted his teeth and said: "The lesser of two evils, take care of it first, and then listen to your father's meaning after His Royal Highness the prison enters the city." ”

"That'...... All right! Speaking of this, Qian Qiaogong suddenly said, "But what if the Xingguo Minister Counsellor is incorporated?" ”

Qian Sudian hesitated for a moment, and said: "Xingguo Gong has not shown his heart so far, it seems that he has chosen to sit and watch, and it is normal to think about it, he is relatively close to Jing Haihou, His Royal Highness the Prison State is ushered in by Jing Haihou, and Xingguo Gong will naturally listen to Jing Haihou's meaning before making a decision." With such a checks and balances, presumably Xingguo Gong will not suddenly join in. ”

"Then I...... Discuss with Xia Wanchun first? ”

"Okay. Tell him that we will not help each other, but only follow the orders of His Highness. ”

……。

In the afternoon of the same day, in front of Hongwu Gate.

Chen Zilong, Xu Fuyuan, Song Zhengyu and others gathered here.

They ascended to a makeshift platform and gave public speeches.

He called on the scholars and scholars of Nanjing City, and the dignitaries of the former dynasty to jointly advocate the establishment of the new monarch, form a cabinet, and participate in major events.

The people who ate melons and watched the excitement gathered more and more, and from the beginning of watching the excitement, they were slowly attracted by Chen Zilong's passionate words.

For a time, the hearts of the people in the city were boiling, and the number of onlookers was as high as 100,000.

The situation is gradually becoming uncontrollable.

More and more people flocked to the Hongwu Gate.
