Chapter 236: The farce ends
The army of King Rong, holding high the banner of the Qing monarch, was full of emotions and in excellent condition, and rushed all the way to the destination of this time, the capital. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
King Rong, who rode his horse and ran at the forefront, was like a chicken's blood, and the army that could be deployed on the edge of the capital was less than 200,000, and the garrison of the northern frontier closest to them was pinned down by the army of Rong Di. Even if his father defended and waited for reinforcements from Lingnan Dao, it would be a month and a half later, he didn't believe in this city, and he couldn't capture it in a month and a half.
And the envoys of various countries in the city, let them come to verify the enthronement ceremony of the new king of Dasheng.
Thinking like this, King Rong couldn't help but increase the horsewhip in his hand and shouted behind him: "Pass the order, go forward at full speed!" ”
The sound of horses' hooves shook the suburbs of Beijing, and seeing that the imperial city was close in front of him, the sentinel who was going to suddenly stopped King Rong.
"Report ...... A convoy of horses and carts was spotted ahead. ”
"Who is it?"
"The leader is Duan Ang, the chief soldier of Yulin Guard, who said that he was ordered by the Holy Lord to come and make peace with His Highness with a lot of money."
"Oh?" King Rong narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth became more and more curvature, this is not yet a fight, talk about peace first, father, are you afraid of your son?
"Bring people in."
"Yes!" The sentinels who had received the order turned their horses, and soon a long line of chariots and horses was brought to King Rong.
"Minister Duan Ang, I have seen His Royal Highness King Rong." Duan Ang, who was the leader, got off his horse and saluted, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see King Rong having the intention of telling him to get up, and he didn't have a brain, and continued to maintain a bowing posture.
This hasn't taken down the capital yet, so is it going to give yourself, an old minister of the former dynasty, a dismount? Duan Ang sneered in his heart, such a bearing, but he couldn't be the emperor.
"It turned out to be the son of Grandpa Guo's family, please hurry up." After about half a cup of tea, King Rong opened his mouth: "This king is about to enter the city in a while, this night is dewy, wouldn't it be better for us to see each other in the city for a while?" ”
"The minister knows that His Highness will enter the city later, but before entering the city, there are some things in the Holy Lord, which must be handed over to His Highness by the minister." Duan Ang continued to laugh, the fire shining on his face, a bit of an indisputable sense of charm.
"I don't know if my father is in such a hurry, what do you want to hand over to me?" King Rong's eyes were full of pride that could not be hidden.
"Unboxing." After commanding behind him, the twelve large boxes that Duan Ang carried were opened in turn, and each large box was stacked with neat gold bars, shining in the darkness: "The Holy Lord ordered the ministers to bring 100,000 taels of gold to His Highness, and at the same time asked the ministers to tell His Highness, he knew that His Highness was unhappy, but this time the corruption of ink was a big matter, and the eyes of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were staring at the Holy Lord. If His Highness wishes to return to Jiangdi at this moment, more rewards will arrive later. And the saint was not the slightest unhappy with His Highness's raising of troops this time, but felt that His Highness had the same hard work he had back then, and he was afraid that the crown prince's edict would come down in the future. ”
As Duan Ang spoke, he made a big salute to King Rong that would only be done when he met the East Palace, and after the salute, he continued: "But if His Royal Highness insists on entering the city at this time, in front of the people of Dasheng and the envoys of various countries, in order to save the face of the Heavenly Family, I am afraid that he will have to go to war with His Highness." ”
"Hmph......" King Rong stared at Duan Ang condescendingly, and let out a sneer: "There are too many ministers like you around my father, which will lead to continuous natural disasters in the south of the Yangtze River, and endless wars in the northern Xinjiang. ”
"Your Highness, listen to the words of the ministers again, the holy dragon body is declining, the position of the great treasure is about to change hands, and King Rong has been favored by the saint because of this matter, why not stay for a while, you don't have to meet the saint with the sword, and you can be the lord of the world in the name of righteousness. There is a cloud in the art of war: the upper army is strategic, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city. If His Royal Highness insists on attacking the city at this time, not to mention that the capital is impregnable, His Highness may not be able to take the capital in one fell swoop. Even if His Highness succeeds in breaking the city, and more than one million garrisons in Lingnan and Northern Xinjiang arrive in the future, this Jinluan Palace, His Highness is afraid that it will not be easy to defend. ”
"Heh......" There was another sneer, and King Rong looked at Duan Ang with contemptuous eyes: "I originally wanted to correct the law on the spot, so as to set an example, and let the soldiers see the fate of slander in front of me in the future, but now I want to let you go back, so that you can take a good look at how I captured the capital in one fell swoop, and how I took the garrison of Lingnan and northern Xinjiang." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness King Rong, for your grace not to kill." Duan Ang saluted again: "If His Highness insists on attacking the city, he will teach the ministers to bring back the gold, and now the ministers are good at advocating and leaving the gold to His Highness, so I should congratulate His Highness on success." ”
"People say that the prince of the Zhenguo family is both wise and brave, and he can see it today, but he is just a rudder who sees the wind and sells the lord to seek glory, it is a pity that he has a good face." When Duan Ang walked away, a guard behind King Rong opened his mouth.
"Hmph." King Rong looked at the back, and also looked disdainful: "He is smart, he bought his life with 100,000 taels of gold, you guys watch, after we enter the city, in order to save the life of his whole family, this guy may even sell his ass to this king." ”
King Rong spoke vulgarly, and it was not at all obvious that he had received a good education from his maternal grandfather, and everyone behind him laughed together when they heard this.
After a short rest, everyone set out again, and when the magnificent Suzaku Gate appeared before them, the sun had already peeked out of the sky.
King Rong and his group stopped at a place three miles away from the city gate, and the ambitious young prince commanded a soldier behind him and said: "You go to the gate to shout, just say that after the king enters the city, he will only kill the traitors, and everything else will be the same. ”
"Yes!" The soldier received the order, and was about to run to the city gate, but before he had gone two steps, he saw a crack open in the majestic Suzaku Gate.
Then two steps were carried out of the door, one of which sat a richly dressed woman of gold and silver, and on the other sat an old man of extraordinary bearing.
Looking at these two people, King Rong's face suddenly darkened: "Okay, move out of my mother and grandfather to suppress this king, do you think this king is afraid!" ”
Then a Yulin Wei rode out of the door, went straight to the front of King Rong's array, and said loudly to King Rong: "Your Highness, the concubine Niangniang is favored by the sixth palace, although she is not in the position of the queen, but she has always been treated with the courtesy of the queen, and she has never been treated badly by the belt. Taifu is also an example for the people of the world, and His Royal Highness has been raised by the side of Taifu since childhood, and has spread Confucian orthodoxy. The Holy Lord hopes that His Royal Highness will think twice, not to let the noble concubine be ashamed, and not to let His Royal Highness the Taifu be rude to the students from all over the world. ”
Just as Yu Linwei was making his final persuasion, above the city gate, Chu Xinggu, who was dressed in military uniform, turned around and asked Mu Yubai behind him: "Girl, do you think the Three Emperor Brothers will stop here?" ”
"Your Highness, rest assured." After staying up all night, Mu Yubai, who was improving by smoking, took a long puff of cigarette: "King Rong will definitely contribute to your future." ”
