Chapter 830: There Is No Impermeable Wall in the World
Yang Youcai looked puzzled: "What are you two talking about, why can't I understand something?" Our army has been fighting hard for more than 40 days, and it looks like we are about to break through the city, isn't it a waste to stop now? ”
Chen Chengan laughed: "What can we do if we break through Taiyuan Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion, before we get to Beijing City, we have to fight to the death with the Zhou Dynasty, I guess that since Kangxi wants to withdraw from the Guannei, there will not be many people around him, if he withdraws all his troops from the Guanwai, Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu are not fools, and we are not fools, can't we see what they want to do?" ”
Saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of water: "Besides, many people have taken root in Beijing, and their family property is placed around the capital, these people are definitely unwilling to leave Beijing, the biggest possibility is that Kangxi wants the golden cicada to get out of his shell, and it is easy for us to think that he is not strong enough to leave Beijing, and who will have the heart to track down this lost dog at that time?" The city of Beijing is right in front of you, and no one wants to stop. ”
"What does that have to do with us stopping the attack?"
"But all the people who were sent out at this time were destined to stay in the Guannai, otherwise do you think about why Tuhai suddenly disappeared? These people are now busy fighting, once they have a gap, the news of the capital will soon reach their ears, and when the time comes, Kangxi wants to go through his own people first. Jingshi has been moving a lot in the past few days, if those ministers were still in the dark at the beginning, and now they have almost figured it out, what they lack is foreign aid, let's send foreign aid, just wait for the Manchu Qing and the Zhou Dynasty to fight. ”
Half a month later, in the city of Nanjing, Xia Guoxiang glared suddenly: "What did you say?" ”
"According to the news from the Iron Harrier, the Ming Emperor had an old injury and was bedridden, and now the Ming army has all stopped attacking, and many generals have rushed back to Chengdu Mansion to listen to the Ming Emperor's arrangements for the future."
Xia Guoxiang laughed: "Is this news accurate?" ”
"The news sent back by our spies who were ambushed near Chengdu Mansion has been sent back by two or three troops and horses in the past few days, and they all seem to be dressed like generals, and it is estimated that they are going to be orphaned."
"God help me, the Ming Emperor is only twenty years old, even if he has a son, I don't know if he can speak now, as long as he dies, the Ming Dynasty will immediately fall into civil strife, this is our perfect opportunity."
The staff next to him had a bitter face: "But my lord, what if the Ming Emperor pretends to be sick?" Even if he really fell ill, it might not be a good thing for us, they used to help us fight the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now we are left alone. ”
Xia Guoxiang walked around the room twice: "Impossible! According to the news we got, the Ming Dynasty has been fighting around Kaifeng Mansion for more than 40 days, and it is estimated that the war in Shanxi is also going on at about the same time. ”
The staff nodded: "What the adults said is indeed the case, Shanxi and Henan are almost at his fingertips, he withdrew his troops like this, and forty days of people eating horses and chewing is not a small amount, what is the picture?" Looks like he must be really sick. ”
"The two armies of Shanxi and Henan have become tired troops, even if they are iron-clad armies, they have been fighting for forty days in a row, and it is estimated that they will not be able to open their eyes at this time, we will take this opportunity to take Shandong, go straight to Beijing, and destroy the Manchus before the Manchus come to their senses, and then a divided Ming Dynasty is not in my bag?"
"Your Excellency is wise!"
"But let the Iron Harrier continue to inquire about the news, don't relax, if the Ming Emperor really makes a dangerous move, pretending to be sick and making us both lose, we must not be unguarded. Although this possibility is very small, it is important to keep an eye out for it. ”
"Yes."
In the city of Beijing, Kangxi looked bitter, the concubines in the harem, those who had children and their children went to Shengjing to worship their ancestors, and those who had no children were basically in the palace, even if the secrecy work was done well, the news could not be stopped, not to mention anything else, the old gentleman who usually taught several princes had not left the palace for several days, plus the imperial doctor was grounded in the palace, and those ministers who were good guessed almost.
Something must have happened in the palace, the general blockade of news is just to isolate the communication between the emperor and the minister, but the emperor goes to the court every day, there must be nothing to do, although the eunuchs in the palace have a gag order, but there is money to make the ghost grind, not to mention the eunuchs, many eunuchs who deliberately befriend the courtiers on the way to the next court, and also said vaguely that there are many people in the palace.
The ministers are not stupid, the people in the palace are gone, unless it is to cover up the scandal in the palace, but if there is a scandal in the palace, it has always been to kill all the insiders, so why detain people? Coupled with the sudden departure of the Eight Banners Banner Owner from Beijing before, the situation in Beijing immediately became confusing.
Like Cheng Xiaolian, these ministers didn't dare to think that the emperor would give up the matter of Beijing, until yesterday, the empress dowager wanted to return to Shengjing to worship the ancestors, this time everyone's hearts seemed to be pressed a stone, it was not a special day, and there was no practice of going to Shengjing to worship ancestors for 30 years, there was only one reason, His Majesty wanted to withdraw to Shengjing.
The three imperial histories immediately wrote: "The country is in danger, and the Son of Heaven should guard the country." If it is irretrievable, the king should die! Why abandon the city and flee? ”
These three imperial histories were copied and beheaded on the same day, and there was no one left, and the ministers of Beijing City understood better, generally if they didn't poke the emperor's sore spot, there would be no such thing as a full door copy, since they were poked to the sore spot, this thing must be carried out in secret.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, these things will come out sooner or later, sooner or later, it is not these that make Kangxi bitter, but that he got the news that Emperor Daming is critically ill.
If this news came a month earlier, why is it so worthless, now that Shengjing's side is stable, at this time, if the soldiers and horses are transferred back, it will have to be a big mess, although those ministers say that the king let the minister die, and the minister has to die. But let people die must give people a reason, this thing is not glorious, and the confidence is naturally insufficient.
On the same day, these ministers got another news, the Henan army suddenly changed handsome, originally the general Tuhai was the commander, but now Tuhai is missing, but the leader is Feiyangu, so the eighteen ministers Lianming asked His Majesty above the court, can there be a refuge in the north?
As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, and these people are more powerful and courageous. Second, justice is on their side, and they can't work hard for the court, and in the end they are all sold to the rebels by the emperor, right?
