"Are you the Fire God True Monarch?"

What the?

"Are you the reincarnation of Zhurong?"

……

When the rhetorical question like a cannon came into his ears, it only made Zhu Guoqiang feel a little dizzy, he stared at the thin and wrinkled old man in front of him, he was Song Xuezhu, shouldn't he be burned to death on the city tower?

Through several trips back and forth between the two worlds, Zhu Guoqiang deliberately searched the Internet for information related to the war in Jinan, there is not much information, but it is certain that Song Xuezhu, the governor of Shandong, Zhang Bingwen, the political envoy of Shandong, and Deng Qian, who participated in the politics of Jinan, although they are civil officials, their performance is completely different from those shameless people who later come, they all fought to the death, together with the officials who defended the city such as King Ninghai of the Dewang Mansion and other officials who defended the city without flinching, and fought to the end.

Therefore, when someone reported to Governor Song Xuezhu to ask to see him, Zhu Guoqiang naturally did not refuse, but this person's state was similar to his own - his hair and beard were burned, and there were burn blisters on his face.

He's still alive?

What about the others? Thinking of those officials who died heroically, Zhu Guoqiang hoped that they would survive, after all, they were all loyal ministers.

The wind knows the grass, and the board knows the Chengchen.

In these days, there are too few loyal and righteous people.

Although I don't know what to do after the crossing, with the seemingly nonsense "fishing sticker", Zhu Guoqiang has always got some answers. For example, build your own team and consolidate the basic market.

What is a team?

Chen Changgeng, Chen Wuving, and Lao Qian, they are naturally all of them, Song Xuezhu in front of them, and the officials in Jinan City who were originally martyred in history, after all, they have all been tested.

As for the base ...... This is the city of Jinan!

Vulcan Blessings!

It doesn't seem to be a big deal to have this name here to demagogue. But in the face of Song Xuezhu's repeated questions, Zhu Guoqiang was puzzled.

"What does Governor Song mean by asking?"

"Your Highness!"

After straightening off his clothes, Song Xuezhu did not answer, but said with a long sigh.

"As the governor of Shandong, Xia Guan thanked His Royal Highness for defending the city against the enemy and protecting the people on behalf of the elders of Jinan."

"Well, that's what the main hall should ......."

didn't wait for Zhu Guoqiang to be polite, just listen to Song Xuezhu say.

"But does Your Highness know that today's victory is also a big disaster for Your Highness!"

"Woe to you!"

His eyes were slightly constricted, and Zhu Guoqiang looked at this person coldly.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Your Royal Highness is my Ming clan, naturally I know that my Ming Dynasty has the national rule of "the vassal king is not in charge of the army", although this time it is the siege of the city, His Royal Highness as a clan should lead the army to protect the country, but now the people all call His Royal Highness "Zhu Rong down to the earth" to save my Ming people from fire and water,"

Seeing that His Royal Highness listened very seriously, Song Xuezhu said in a low voice.

"If this word reaches the capital, how will Your Majesty deal with himself!"

Although his voice was not loud, this sentence reached Zhu Guoqiang's ears, making him vigilant at the same time, a sentence flashed in his mind.

Meritorious Cover Lord!

His eyes even involuntarily looked towards the Qing army camp, where he could faintly hear the popping sound of a knife stabbing into his body, and it seemed that someone was still crying. When he retracted his gaze, he turned to Jinan City, which was still shrouded in fire.

How many Qing soldiers did you kill in this battle?

Eight thousand, or ten thousand?

For the current Daming, this is a great victory that has never been seen before!

It's just that such a big victory is not good news for Chongzhen, after all, this proves his "incompetence" from another level - let the Qing army enter Kou for thousands of miles, and kill more than one million Li people. Thanks to His Royal Highness Jinan Dezong for coming forward...... Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

There is no need to continue to assume, Zhu Guoqiang knows how he will hate himself with Chongzhen's temper.

O Lord......

It's not easy to do!

If you are not careful, you may go to Fengyang Gaotai two years ago, because the Qing army entered the fortress to recruit soldiers and the king of Tang Zhu Yujian was treated and was imprisoned in the Fengyang high wall.

"Your Highness doesn't remember that in the ninth year, the Qing army entered Serenke Baodi, approached Beijing, and Beijing was under martial law. Zhu Yujian, the king of the abolished Tang Dynasty, was so anxious that he led a thousand guards from Nanyang to the north to King Qin, and was later deposed as an old thing that the people were imprisoned in the high wall of the central capital......"

Belch!

Without waiting for Zhu Guoqiang to think about it, Song Xuezhu used the example of King Tang to remind him, although it is not a thing, it can also show how careful Chongzhen is from the side. Let such a cautious person be targeted, and you don't have to think about it to know what will happen.

Even if he didn't let him hold the handle this time, who knows what will happen next time?

Seeing His Royal Highness frowning and contemplative, Song Xuezhu's heart can be described as a mixed array of flavors, just a few hours ago, he also knelt down in front of the capital, wanting to repay the emperor's kindness with death, but when he self-immolated, he thought a lot, and naturally thought of why no one rescued Jinan for sixty days, in the final analysis, it was not because he had impeached Yang Sichang and others, they were waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.

Frustrated, he jumped off the tower, never thought that the thick snow below saved his life, and then, the city of Jinan fell into a fire, after escaping by luck, he originally wanted to escape into the empty gate, but from the mouths of the people heard how His Royal Highness was wise, how to lead the fire to extinguish the siege of the city.

After understanding the reason, Song Xuezhu immediately sensed the danger of His Royal Highness King De, so he hurried over, he had only one thought in his heart, no matter what, he had to save His Highness, this is for the world.

"Your Highness, Jinan has besieged the city for sixty days, and the lower officials have asked for help. But Yang Sichang, as a pivotal assistant, only remembered old grievances and did not report the neglect of his subordinates. And the high and sneaking elite cavalry, stationed in the neighboring territory, do not send a soldier to rescue, the east captives into the Kou, the army is afraid of the enemy like a tiger, but just watch from a distance, let the east captives run rampant for thousands of miles, killing millions of people, this ......"

After a pause, as if he had made up his mind, Song Xuezhu gritted his teeth and said.

"This is the courtier used today, today is really not a Ming Jun, if His Royal Highness does not take precautions, I am afraid that the disaster of King Tang yesterday will be repeated in His Highness, and please prepare for it early!"

Finally after saying these words, Song Xuezhu only felt a little dizzy, in the past sixty days, he hated Yang Sichang, hated Gao Qiqian, and of course complained that the emperor did not distinguish between loyalty and treachery, but when Jinan fell, he was still willing to martyr for the emperor and the father of Jinan, but between life and death, he also thought a lot, the emperor is by no means a Ming Jun!

But when such words came out, it subverted Song Xuezhu's decades-long beliefs, so much so that he even felt a little suffocated.

Staring at Song Xuezhu, surprised by his words, although he didn't know that it made him have such a big change, Zhu Guoqiang vaguely realized that this was not a bad thing for him, but he was puzzled.

"Then in the opinion of Governor Song, how should I save myself?"

"This ......"

Looking left and right, listening to the crying sound coming from the Qing army camp, Song Xuezhu said again.

"When the time comes, His Royal Highness can only cooperate with the lower officials, and the most urgent thing now is to immediately redeploy the city annex to prevent the retaliation of the Eastern Prisoners."
