Chapter 402: Re-entry to Jinling

Zhu Di is violent, approaching Jinling, Zhu Yunwen thought about it, only that move is not only a strategy to delay the army, but also can confirm the trick of "dividing the world" that King Yan is really usurping, but in the face of Zhu Yunwen's move, "Zhu Di also has only one trick to return:" Don't want the world, I want a traitor!" ”

The discussion and the peace faction returned, and the kings returned again, this time they kept returning, and the kings were moved by Zhu Di's brotherhood, think about it carefully, in the past few years, they have been in the capital with their tails between their legs, if it weren't for the emperor busy cleaning up King Yan, it is difficult to say that they would not have been thrown into prison on trumped-up charges, so this persuasion and "not only did not move Zhu Di, but made them quietly stand on Zhu Di's side."

Zhu Yunwen really can't stand these people in the past few years, "So many generals under the emperor surrender without a fight, are they all because they are afraid of death?" It has only been 30 years since the founding of the country, and "many generals in the army have been promoted through a hundred battles and battlefields", how can anyone be afraid of death? The vassal kings who are still in various places have not seen a single king of Laiqin so far, "Whether it is when King Yan is weak or when he is arrogant now, no vassal king has stood up to respond to the emperor from beginning to end, doesn't this explain the problem?"

The monarch regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the monarch as a parent: the monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards the ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard the monarch as enemies: the honorable relatives, the generals, and the royal family, these three powerful forces were all heartbroken by Zhu Yunwen "The only thing he values is the ministers, but the role that the ministers can play at this time is really limited, after listening to the kings' returns, Zhu Yunwen could no longer hold back the fear in his heart, and cried loudly on the Golden Palace.

Seeing that the emperor was so out of shape, the officials were finally a little moved. There were officials who went out to offer advice to persuade the emperor to flee to Sichuan, his reason was that with the dangerous terrain of the country of abundance and the abundance of grain and rice, it was enough to lead the king of Yan to fight again; However, some people immediately objected, and proposed that they should flee to Xidong, because at the beginning of the emperor's succession, the tax tax in Xidong was reduced, and it was even supported by the landlords there, and it was the hometown of most civil officials.

As soon as the official of Sijiang finished speaking, another official from Huxiang advised the emperor to flee to the area of Jingchu in Huxiang, where there is now a king of Ning, and King Ning is also a warlike prince, but since King Ning obeyed the holy decree and was renamed Jingzhou, "only gave him 300 guards" and has been guarding himself "planting huā and raising grass there, and now the situation is critical, it is better to retreat to Huxiang "hand over the soldiers and horses to King Ning, and ask King Ning to come out" to control the vassal king with the vassal king.

Zhu Yunwen is a person who has no idea, these people say that the public is reasonable, "the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, which one sounds reasonable" Zhu Yunwen was at a loss, "I want to find my closest courtier to ask for a quasi-idea" But when he looked at it, there was only one Fang Xiaoru in front of him, and Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng had already sent someone to summon them to return to Beijing, but they had not arrived yet, and a wave of resentment arose.

Zhu Yunwen burst into tears, "glared at Fang Xiaoru" and said hatefully: "What happened to your generation, are you all going to abandon me now?" ”

Who are you? The first to advocate the cutting of the feudal domain is Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, now they are not in Beijing, another urgent vanguard is Fang Xiaoru, hearing the emperor's words, Fang Xiaoru can be a little unbearable, he stood at the head of the Wenchen class, and looked at the opposite side, "I saw Li Jinglong standing there, his expression was leisurely" and "complacent" I couldn't help but be angry.

Fang Xiaoru pointed at Li Jinglong and said sharply: "If you are a bad person, this thief is also."

If it weren't for him, "How could hundreds of thousands of soldiers in my court die in the northern frontier, how can the court have today's predicament, the emperor, kill this thief, thank the world!" ”

As he spoke, he pounced angrily, grabbed Li Jinglong and hit him. Li Jinglong is a military general after all, if he really wants to do it, he can kick Fang Xiaoru down, "But he didn't dare, if he angered the emperor, he really ordered him to be killed, and now King Yan can't save him." Li Jinglong had no choice but to pretend to be his grandson, hold his head to protect the vital point and ignore it, and some of the other ministers remembered that Li Jinglong had been defeated twice, resulting in today's situation in the imperial court.

"Enough!"

Lian Zining was so angry that his mouth was crooked, and Fang Daru was too out of tune, at this time, did you divide Li Jinglong's corpse alive and have a fart? The emperor's crisis is that the Yan army is coming to the city, and no one thinks of an idea about this matter, but he shirks his responsibility and strives to be the first.

Lian Zining roared to stop the civil officials, Li Jinglong slowly stood up from the ground with his head in his hands, dusted off his robe, it looked like his robe and hairstyle were a little messy, but there was nothing big about his body and face.

Lian Zining arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Jinling City is high and deep, and the food is sufficient, so it will not be a problem to keep it for a year." The soldiers of the king of Yan are coming to the city, and the battle is just a quick word, and as soon as the division of the king of Qin from all walks of life in my court arrives, "the siege of Jinling will be solved, so the current plan is to immediately dispatch troops and generals, and collect all the soldiers and horses outside the city into the city, as long as the Jinling city is guarded for a month, it is enough!" ”

"Fang Xiaoru's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly echoed: "Yes, what Lord Lian said is reasonable" The emperor can transfer all the soldiers, horses and people outside the city into the city and burn all the surrounding houses and woods" Yan soldiers have no siege equipment "The defenders in my city are leaning on the strong city, are you afraid that you won't be able to defend it?" The iron lock can hold Jinan for three months, and the king of Yan is exhausted, and the emperor himself sits here, and the morale and military spirit are comparable to Tie Xuan.

As long as we defend for a month, the 60,000 troops of Fengyang, the central capital, the 400,000 troops of Huai'an Mei's horses, and the divisions of all walks of life will arrive one after another, and King Yan will not be defeated, "I have to flee back to Beiping!" Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed when he heard this, and said repeatedly: "Yes, what the two Aiqing said is reasonable, according to what the two Aiqing said, implement it immediately, implement it immediately!" ”

From the Shence Gate, Jinchuan Gate, Zhongzhuo Gate, "through the Longjiang Station, around the Lion Mountain, and then to the west of the city Yifeng Gate, the thirteen city gates of Jinling are opened" in front of each city gate winding for dozens of miles, people shouting horses neighing, "not soldiers or people, endlessly moving to Jinling City. The imperial capital of Jinling was shrouded in a tense atmosphere of black clouds crushing the city and wanting to destroy it.

It was precisely in the scorching summer that "countless people helped the old and the young, and under the persecution of the officers and soldiers, they moved to Nanjing City with a small burden and tears," and soon after entering the city, the young and strong laborers of these families were picked out by the officers and soldiers again, and left Jinling City under the supervision of the officers and soldiers, "demolished all the houses, pushed the bricks and stones with small carts, and carried these things back to the city with ropes to prepare for the defense of the city."

Jinling is the imperial capital, and the surrounding villages and towns are relatively wealthy, but in a moment, "they were demolished and turned into ruins." The people carried and toiled under the scorching sun, and many of them died of hunger and thirst and heat stroke, and no one bothered to bury them at this time, and the houses and mountains and forests that had not had time to be demolished were "all burned, and the sky was full of flames" and the wind burned everywhere, and the ashes were everywhere, and the corpses of the people who died on the side of the road due to overwork were all blackened.

The people watched the houses burned down and demolished, and the merchants saw their shops looted and smashed, but they could only cry silently.

Of course, "there are also people who know the opportunity early when they hear the news", and they packed up the gold and silver in advance and fled every day. Everyone knows that King Yan's goal is Jinling City, if he can escape, who wants to go to Jinling City to die with him? Iron locks guard Jinan, "the people starved to death countless things", they have already heard.

Jiangning County, Shuangqiaomen.

Linqiao is a hotel called "Shuangqiao Xianguan...... specializing in river fresh, especially puffer fish, this master chef cuisine is particularly authentic, this shop has been operating here for decades, and I haven't heard that the guinea fish can't be cleaned up "so that the guests are poisoned, so although it is only a mid-range tavern, sometimes in order to try it, the city's wealthy businessmen will also come here to taste it.

Because this shop is in the outermost part of Jinling, "the emperor's holy decree ordered the people to move into the city, and the peripheral buildings can be demolished, and if they can't be demolished, they will be burned.

The officers and soldiers searched all the way to this point, and most of the families had already escaped. A small school walked into the "Shuangqiao Xian Restaurant" and bumped into two young people who hurriedly ran out with their burdens, and the small school immediately drew a knife and said, "Who are they?" ”

When the two young men saw it, they hurriedly said: "Master Jun spares his life, we are the guys in this store." ”

When the little colonel saw that the two of them were dressed in the clothes that were indeed Xiao Er, he took back the knife and asked, "You guys are in a hurry, what are you doing here?" The little second in front of him shouted when he hit the sky: "Master Jun, we are the second child in this store, the shopkeeper has no conscience, he packed up and led the whole family to run away, and the wages were not settled." The two of us brothers are really angry, so we ...... So ......"

"Huh?"

The little colonel glared, and another man hurriedly laughed, "We just collected some household work to cover the wages." ”

Xiao Xiao looked at the two of them with the burden on their backs and "knocked with the back of the knife" Ding dang sounded, it was actually a pot, a kitchen knife and something like that, he looked at the figure of the two again, and said: "Yes, strong and strong" You don't run around, the emperor has an order, all the people around Jinling move inward, stick to Jinling City, you two, follow us, go back to defend the city. ”

"Huh?"

The two juniors were so shocked that they couldn't possess their bodies, and begged repeatedly, "Where can the little school have them pleading, and shouted: "If you dare to disobey the holy order", you will be punished as a bandit and a party, believe it or not, I will cut you with a knife. ”

The two juniors didn't dare to say anything more when they heard it, "It's so reluctant." The little colonel looked around, and there was nothing to collect, and he searched to the periphery, and he didn't catch a few strong men in total, if he demolished the house, "this sorghum has to be carried by himself, such a hot day, such a long way, it is enough to kill" and commanded the two shopkeepers with a knife and said, "Burn it, burn it, burn this restaurant immediately, follow us back to the city!" ”

Under the persecution of the officers and soldiers, the two shopkeepers were forced to set fire to the restaurant and followed them towards Jinling City. Along the way, "the officers and soldiers have already caught some people who are ready to flee, and on the way back" intercepted some people who ran late, and at this time, the gate of the thirteen cities was opened, and they just went inside to arrest people, and the two guys mixed in with these people and successfully entered Jinling City.

As soon as they entered the city gate, the two subconsciously glanced at each other, "there was a slight smile in their eyes", they are Xia Xun and Ji Gang!

The city was full of people, crowded and chaotic, and while their eyes were chaotic, the two of them quickly disappeared into the crowd......! ~!
