Chapter 231: The Case of Moving the Palace
Tianxing Mansion, the residence of the auxiliary king.
"What you say is true?!" Zhu Yuao stared at Cao Hongzu with an anxious expression, holding the three pieces that the latter had just handed him in his hand, namely: impeachment of Jiang Zhengxi for lying about his military exploits and avoiding the enemy; The eastern captives deceived the reserve troops to fight; He, Cao Hongzu, led his troops to kill and capture Fan Shaozu.
"Back to Your Highness, the stakes are very high, how dare the last general lie." Cao Hongzu hurriedly said, "The thieves attacked our department at night, and the last general led the army to fight the enemy.
"And the end will be a few days before Yanping, and Jiang Zhengxi's men and horses have not been seen within a radius of 100 miles, and they will definitely not be there. And Jiang Zhengxi's lie that the captives are afraid of war and beg to surrender is even more nonsense, but in fact, the captives are purging the soldiers and horses and are preparing for battle! ”
As the two were talking, Wang Yinghua, He Wuyu, Zeng Daowei and other Zhu Yuao's henchmen arrived. Cao Hongzu recounted the matter of Yanping to them in detail, and finally said: "At present, the army should be reorganized immediately, and we are ready to fight a decisive battle with the captives at any time!" ”
"How so?!" He Wuyu was shocked when he heard this, "It's not that Boluo begs to surrender, but that Lin wants to be the ...... to be surrendered."
Wang Yinghua muttered: "The matter of Jianyu's begging and surrender began with Jiang Zhengxi's 'great victory', and then Lin Xiangji was the main one, and the Empress Dowager Zeng issued a decree to decide, and no one else reported the defeat of Jianyu. Thinking about it now, there is something strange in it. ”
"But I don't know Jiang Zhengxi, Lin Yuji and others, as well as ...... Why is the Queen Mother like this? ”
"What's the use of talking about it now?" Zeng Daowei said urgently, "If what Cao Shoubei said is true, he will be in great trouble!" He glanced at a few people, and carefully bowed his hand to Zhu Yuao: "Your Highness, or the soldiers of Guangdong can be adjusted......
More than ten days ago, Su Guansheng sent a secret letter, saying that he had moved Ding Kuichu to send troops, and his general Su Ping had led an army of more than 20,000 people to Fujing, and sent them with His Royal Highness the Auxiliary Prince. The day before yesterday, Su Guansheng sent a secret letter again, saying that he was entering southern Fujian with the Guangdong army, passing through Shanghang, and coming straight to Tianxing Mansion. Because Su Ping played the banner of King Qin's resistance to capture, there was no hindrance along the way, and the marching speed was extremely fast.
Zhu Yu'ao frowned, Ding Kuichu's soldiers were ready to be used by him to control Tianxing Mansion, but now that the enemy was captured, he had to be sent to Yanping first.
"There are still 3,000 recruits recruited by Huang Mingjun in Tianxing Mansion, and there are also thousands of Jiang Zhengxi's subordinates, so they should be sent to Yanping first." Wang Yinghua immediately said, "In addition, King Chen's soldiers and horses are close to Jian'an, and they can go to the imperial captives." The Su Employment Department should be transferred to Tianxing Mansion to assist in guarding. ”
"The captive army is strong, in case the Empress Dowager and King Chen's men and horses are defeated, Fujing's situation is in danger." Zeng Daowei immediately shook his head, "When you gather troops, you can decide the overall situation in a battle!" ”
"The Cantonese army should be transferred to Tianxing Mansion first, and then the ...... should be discussed."
Several people were arguing for a long time in the auxiliary palace, and when they were panicking and uncertain, a palace guard said urgently outside the door: "Your Highness, the Tang newspaper that has just been sent to Tianxing Mansion has won a great victory in Yanping!" King Chen captured and killed more than 10,000 thieves, and beheaded the chief Boluo! ”
Several people in the room glanced at each other, Cao Hongzu hurriedly jumped up and took the Tang newspaper, and handed it to Zhu Yuao.
"This ...... It can't be another lie, right? He Wuyu said with palpitations.
By dusk, all kinds of news came one after another.
There are generals of the Ming army in various places who show their loyalty. Some local officials complained and asked the brigade of prisoners not to cross the border. There are Yanping officials who ask for credit for King Chen, and by the way, they have something to do with Dajie.
At this point, a few people really believed that Bolo was dead and Yanping had won a great victory.
Zeng Daowei was the first to breathe a sigh of relief, "So it seems that the Fujing thief has been broken." The remaining rout army was pursued by King Chen, and there was no omission. ”
Wang Yinghua lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and suddenly said to Zhu Yuao: "Your Highness, this is a God-given opportunity, and you must not miss it!" Please make up your mind and do your best! ”
Zhu Yuao was puzzled: "What does Chongyan mean by the good opportunity? ”
Wang Yinghua immediately said: "Relying on the Guangdong army, quickly adjust its arch to defend Tianxing Mansion, and take the overall situation."
"Also, please impeach. Jiang Zhengxi lied about his military exploits, avoided the enemy without fighting, and delayed the military plane!
"Lin Xuji is stupid and ignores the enemy, follows the plan, and falls into the danger of the country!"
In the end, the essence of his eyes flashed, and he said word by word: "The Empress Dowager Zeng is unscrupulous, biased to listen to traitors, and interferes in politics and misleads the country." When the Queen Mother is invited to move to Renshou Palace! ”
As soon as these people learned that the enemy was safe, their minds immediately turned to infighting.
Renshou Palace? Zhu Yu's heart immediately beat wildly, and he couldn't be clearer about the meaning of this.
When Emperor Tianqi was young, his adoptive mother Li Xuanzhi wanted to control the government and insisted on living in the Qianqing Palace, but Yang Lian and other courtiers resolutely opposed it, and finally succeeded in forcing him to move to the Qiluan Palace. Since then, Li Xuanzhi has been unable to intervene in the government's affairs. This is the famous palace removal case.
Although I don't know why the Empress Dowager Zeng continued to make stupid moves, she could really force her to move the palace with this matter as a starting point. After that, above the court, it was his auxiliary king who said it.
He Wuyu and Zeng Daowei saw that Zhu Yuao seemed to be moved, and regretted that Wang Yinghua had robbed them of the first credit, and they were busy with their plans. Suddenly, everyone in the room was gearing up, and there was a hot scene.
……
Countless men and horses walked on the official road, with a large number of baggage weapons in the team, and there was no end in sight.
Two officer-like men rode side by side, and the one on the left looked at the rear, where several horses were intricately carved and very different from the military vehicles beside them. The guards around him were dressed in black coats and plain white coats, with a left scimitar at the waist and a short reed wheel at the back. Whether dressed or weaponized, it is obviously not an ordinary Ming army.
"Eh, Brother Li, who are those big cars behind?" He spoke Cantonese.
The person on the right glanced back, and said in Cantonese: "That's Mu Jing, the sister-in-law of the Tusi Mu family in western Yunnan." When he promised our General Su some benefits, he entered Fujian with the army, as if he said that he was congratulated on the new emperor's accession to the throne. ”
"The Mu family?" The man on the left smiled evilly, "I heard that his family has three daughters, all of whom are beautiful and fragrant, especially the second daughter, tsk, that's ......."
"Be quiet," the other slapped him busily, "you don't see their guards, and if they hear you, you can ...... them."
"That's, that's."
"Yale, where did the eldest brother go?" In a spacious carriage in the middle of the rear team, a woman's voice was as empty as a lan, "Why haven't you seen him come back yet?" ”
A sturdy horseback guard beside the car hurriedly said respectfully through the curtain: "Second Miss Hui, the eldest young master said that he went to Master Su." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a man in a white Confucian costume in front of him with a dashing demeanor coming on horseback, it was the next Tusi of the Mu family, Mu Jing.
Yale immediately said again: "It's the eldest young master who has returned." ”
Na Mujing urged the horse to gallop to the side of the carriage, and when he heard the guard say that his sister was looking for him, he jumped off the horse with a smile, and caught up with the slowly moving carriage in a few steps.
