Wuzhou Mansion had just received the good news of the great victory in Quanzhou and Yongzhou, and before it had time to be happy for two days, the bad news of the defeat of Lema Peak came.

Zhu Youlang and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were like riding a roller coaster, tossed by the ensuing joys and sorrows to the point that their hearts almost failed.

At this time, there was also bad news in the southwest, tens of thousands of Qin troops suddenly descended from the sky, even breaking Longzhou, Sizhou, Qinzhou, Nanning and other places, and now all the way north out of Kunlun Pass, approaching Penzhou; All the way down the Yongshui to the east, the soldiers pointed to Guixian.

The situation in Guangxi became stormy and dangerous for a while.

Zhu Youlang, who received the report, was so shocked that he knocked over the teacup, and the hot tea made his legs hot, but he couldn't care about it.

He screamed to the eunuch Wang Kun: "Quickly pass the decree, let Qu Shiyun return to the division to escort, and let him lead the army back to escort him!" ”

"Your Majesty, your feet, quickly pass on the Imperial Doctor!"

"I told you to pass the message!" Zhu Youlang's handsome face was distorted for a while, and he didn't know whether it was painful or frightened.

"Yes, yes, the emperor take care" Wang Kun himself was not frightened, and under Zhu Youlang's repeated urging, he stumbled out of the inner hall and asked people to pass the decree.

Zhu Youlang hurriedly dealt with the burns, and urgently summoned the ministers to discuss the matter, but most of the other officials came, but Ding Kuichu, the first assistant of the cabinet, was nowhere to be seen.

But it turned out that after Ding Kuichu received the news that the Qin army was attacked from both sides, he was busy transferring his family property.

During his tenure as governor of Liangguang, Chongzhen was worried about internal and external troubles. The two mountains are far away, and they don't care about it at all.

Ding Kuichu, who controlled the military and political power of Liangguang, took the opportunity to wantonly loot the people's fat and people's ointment. The day is all about pleasure. He sent a navy to the Antelope Gorge near Zhaoqing, drained the river, and took inkstones from the old pit at the foot of the Axe Ke Mountain. In terms of administrative employment, it is also to see who bribes more money.

Over the years, under his wanton looting, he has gathered a jaw-dropping huge amount of talent, which can be described as a rich country.

Now Guangxi is in shape, as the first assistant of the cabinet. His first thought was not how to save the situation, but his rush to transfer his huge fortune.

Su Ping of the Chinese Army is his confidant, and he has long arranged for Su Ping's father-in-law Zhong Mingyuan to be Cen Xiling. After feeling that Wuzhou was difficult to protect, he immediately asked Su Ping to be responsible for the transfer of family wealth, and entered Cen Xi with more than 300 ships carrying 200,000 taels of gold and more than 2.4 million taels of platinum, and 3 or 400 other wives and concubines. It's really immense.

This qiē is arranged. He hurried back to attend the court meeting.

Wu Bing, Wu Zhenyu, Li Ruyue and other main battle factions are already vigorously denouncing him.

Ding Kuichu had expected this, and as soon as he entered the hall, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, what the old minister said is not bad!" It's not bad! ”

Ding Kuichu looked distressed, screaming for the sky and grabbing the ground, which made people a little confused, what did you say right?

I only heard him bow and shout loudly: "Your Majesty! So far. Guangxi is in danger! The emperor is in danger! Qu Shiyun, Wu Bing, Wu Zhenyu, Zhang Tongchang, and Li Ruyue are arrogant. blindly advocated the Northern Expedition, regardless of the emperor's safety, he didn't know how to lie down and taste his courage, and stopped fighting in order to improve himself;

The emperor put the soldiers and horses in his hands, and now it turns out that these people are not as good as straw bales in addition to playing nonsense, the north side suffered a big defeat, almost all the army was wiped out, and the south side was defenseless, so that the enemy army was like no one, this is to cut off my Daming Jiangshan Sheji!

Your Majesty, now, the country is in danger, if you don't severely punish these people who have brought disaster to the country and the people, and enable capable ministers and good generals, the Ming Dynasty will really be ruined! Emperor! Emperor! Your Majesty."

Ding Kuichu bowed, shouted, and burst into tears, as if Zhu Youlang did not agree to punish the adulterer, and he knocked to death in the court.

Wu Bing, Wu Zhenyu, Li Ruyue and others were so angry that their lungs exploded.

Li Ruyue rushed up and scolded: "Ding Kuichu, you traitor, apart from looting the people's fat and ointment, buying and selling officials, and framing Zhongliang, what else will you do?" The emperor convened the ministers to deliberate, and you, as the first assistant, only cared about transferring the looted people's fat and ointment, and ignored the emperor's will. ”

"Shut up! Shut up! Zhu Youlang saw that the two sides were about to fight again, and now he was so anxious, where did he have time to watch the ministers fight and fight.

In general, the current situation is extremely unfavorable to the main battle faction, as Ding Kuichu said, it is they who will start the war, and the emperor has also handed over the soldiers and horses to them, but now they have suffered a big defeat, Guangxi is not guaranteed, and this responsibility of the main battle faction cannot be shirked.

They have nothing else to say except to attack Ding Kuichu from his personal character, but Zhu Youlang is most concerned about the victory or defeat ahead, because it is related to whether his life can be saved, as for how much money Ding Kuichu embezzled, now the ghost has the scheming to pay attention to this.

"Elder Ding Ge, tell me quickly, what is going on now?"

"Your Majesty, now only by punishing those who have brought disaster to the country and the people in the court can we unite as one, resist foreign enemies, improve the morale of the soldiers in front, and protect the Ming Dynasty! Your Majesty, if the traitors in the court are not punished, there is no way to talk about the rest! ”

"Ding Kuichu, you"

"Come on, take Li Ruyue, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, into the prison of the Criminal Department, and wait for the fate!"

"Your Majesty! Cannot! ”

"Your Majesty, Li Ruyue is just one of the traitors, if only one of them is punished, and the rest don't ask, how can you serve the public?"

"The Emperor"

In the court, the two factions of people rushed out and shouted, making Zhu Youlang dizzy, he stood up and staggered, but fortunately, the eunuch next to him quickly supported him, and after standing firmly, Zhu Youlang looked purple, and actually cried: "This emperor can't do it!" With that, he brushed his sleeves away, and soon disappeared behind the large screen.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

In the court, the main battle faction and the main peace faction vied with each other, but they still couldn't keep Zhu Youlang, and only an empty throne was left on the Danqi. The two factions stayed for a while, and immediately poured their anger on each other, and now no one cared, and the two factions began to scold each other again, and finally they couldn't avoid another big fight, and the entire court intersected with fists and palms, and it became a mess.

Things couldn't be more ridiculous!

After Zhu Youlang returned to the harem, his mother-in-law, Wang, that is, the queen mother, hurriedly called Zhu Youlang to her bedroom after learning about the affairs in the court, and scolded: "Ridiculous! Are you a playmaker as an emperor? At the beginning, the palace asked you not to do it, but you didn't listen, and now where is it up to you, if you still want to live, hurry back to the court, stop the ministers, let everyone calm down, discuss countermeasures, don't go quickly! ”

Under the loud reprimand of the queen mother, Zhu Youlang was like a stick, and hurriedly returned to the court, at this time in the court, the two factions were also tired, many people were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, and some were even worse, they were caught with blood all over their faces, and they were like a group of street thugs fighting after a group fight.

Zhu Youlang ordered the eunuch to find the imperial doctor and bandage the injured minister, and he said with tears in his eyes: "I know that you can all descend, but only I can't descend, so you are not afraid at all, the Ming Dynasty is over, I am the only one who died, the situation is so bad, you are still fighting endlessly, this is to send me to death."

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, the ministers are waiting for death!"

"No, you won't die, you can change your body, and you can continue to be Qin Mu's official, only I will die! Only me! ”

Listening to Zhu Youlang's heart-wrenching words, many ministers fell to the ground, cried bitterly, and kept pleading guilty.

Zhu Youlang wiped his tears and said: "You don't have to ask for guilt, you don't have to fight, if you want to resign, please take care of yourself, if you don't want to die, stop the internal strife and discuss how to deal with it." ”

Ding Kuichu rushed out of the class again and said: "Your Majesty, the so-called lips are dead and the teeth are cold, I believe that the Tang King of Guangdong knows this truth, and the old minister Jian Yiyi hurriedly sent an envoy to Guangdong to ask the Tang King for help, and asked him to send troops to fight against the Qin army together." ”

After making trouble for a long time, Zhu Youlang finally heard a useful word, and he didn't think much about it, and immediately complied.

Ding Kuichu continued: "Your Majesty, in order to gain time, the minister dared to ask the emperor to send an envoy to negotiate peace with the Qin State, as long as Guangxi can be kept, even if he declares himself a minister to Qin Mu first. ”

"Your Majesty, no! Back then, Emperor Sizong, how could he compromise with the traitor? The emperor is orthodox in the Ming Dynasty, how can he insult the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty and claim to be a vassal to the traitor? Ding thief, you should be damned! ”
