"What's the trouble?"

Zhang Yan stood beside Yang Qing and looked at the mountain of corpses and blood in front of her with emotion.

In the early morning sun, countless dead bodies piled up on the originally empty square, killed by bullets, stabbed to death by spears, beheaded by knives, and trampled to death by galloping war horses, or even trampled to death by themselves, their blood flowed, and the entire noon gate and the end gate were directly bloody. Some Jinyi guards are still searching for the injured among the dead bodies, of course, not to search them out for treatment, but to make up another knife to end their pain, anyway, the living have to be sent to Changhua as coolies, this kind of seriously injured has no value as coolies at all.

This is how the drama of the bloody imperial city ended.

The rabble of 10,000 people on both sides of the fire of birds and even artillery, a third of the 500 mounted cavalry died here, including the vast majority of the nobles who participated in the hoeing operation, they thought they were at the front of the whole team, and as a result, they became the target of the first round of assault of the mounted cavalry. The flat-ended hollow wooden poles and spears passed through six counts, five marquises, and the only duke of them was wounded by a bullet and was trampled by the horse's hooves before he could escape.

Poor they can't escape!

This place is completely closed, surrounded by more than three zhang high city walls, and those who are close to the end gate can go out, but the front is sandwiched in the 100-meter corridor formed by the city platforms on both sides of the noon gate, and there is really no way to escape.

Counting Chang Yingjun who died outside, thirteen nobles who rested with the country died in this mountain of corpses and sea of blood.

Counting Zhao Zhilong, it is fourteen.

Originally, the two dukes of Nanjing, the Seven Marquis and the Nine Uncles of the Qing Dynasty in the history of Nanjing, were left with Li Zushu, the Marquis of Linhuai, and Tang Guozuo, the Marquis of Lingbi, who were originally responsible for blocking the Iron Cavalry Camp outside, and they had fled after the defeat in the imperial city, and they did not know where they fled at this time. In addition, the whereabouts of Dongning Bo Jiao Mengxiong and Cheng Anbo Guo Zuoyong are unknown, either they escaped or they were not found in the pile of dead people, after all, thousands of dead bodies are not so easy to distinguish clearly, especially many of them have been trampled beyond recognition.

This is really a heavenly street.

"Be happy, at least this Nanjing City is completely ours now!"

Yang Qing said happily.

"Queen Mother, are you ready to receive 30 million taels of silver?"

He went on to say.

This number should not be too far behind, how can a family like Wei Guogong for more than two hundred years still not be able to copy three or five million.

Zhang Yan gave him a seductive look.

Immediately afterwards, the Queen Mother handed him a volume of the Prison Sect that had just been written and sealed, Yang Qing took it casually without looking at the contents, and grabbed the Queen Mother's jade hand by the way while there was no one behind her, and then in her coquettish gaze, he pulled out a big flag from her side and jumped off the city wall. At the moment of landing, it bounced up again and landed accurately on a war horse, and the big flag in his hand waved to urge the war horse, and rushed forward with the brocade guard behind him, and on the city wall behind him, Zhang Yan quietly looked at his back......

The Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh.

I can see that her mood is also very complicated!

Yang Qing took his brocade guards and rushed out of the Duanmen, out of the Chengtian Gate, and out of the right gate of Chang'an, walking through this city where more than two million people lived.

At this time, the battle in the city was still not over.

It is impossible for those 10,000 people to be killed, even if a large part of them surrendered, but more than 3,000 people still escaped from the imperial city, especially there are a large number of hired bandits inside, these guys will inevitably create chaos in the city, and even some of the rebels who were originally outside the city, after the battle in the imperial city, the rest is to clean up these people in the city, anyway, all the gates of Nanjing are closed, and it is impossible for them to escape. However, the number of soldiers in the tax police team is still too small, a total of only two battalions of 1,000 people, even if you add the Jinyi guards, it is only more than 2,000, and the iron cavalry battalion is not engaged in pursuit of the work, although there are still 10,000 guards, but it is still far from enough, and there are also some scoundrels who take advantage of the chaos to rob, at least it is impossible to restore order in Nanjing in a short time.

Of course, this is just a small thing.

"Yang Qing is here, those who dare to rebel will be killed, and those who go against the party will not die!"

Yang Qing rushed over with the banner.

The first few scoundrels who took advantage of the chaos to rob were so frightened that they hurriedly put down their things, and then knelt on the side of the street and honestly didn't dare to move, and the one that was originally robbed hurriedly came out and took the things back.

Yang Qing didn't even look at them.

His banner continued to move forward on the streets in the early morning, and at the same time, more than a dozen bandits who participated in the battle of the Imperial City were driven out by the pursuing soldiers, and before they could react, Yang Qing's war horse crashed into it, and then more than 100 horsemen who followed behind knocked them over and trampled them under the horse's hooves. In the distance, several scoundrels who also participated in the battle of the Imperial City and fled were so frightened that they quickly knelt down on both sides, Yang Qing's cavalry roared in front of them, and a group of guards who followed them immediately grabbed these people and tied them up.

Yang Qing's banner continued to move forward.

The place where it passed immediately returned to normal order.

I have to say that the prestige of the loyal and brave marquis is more effective than anything else, even some of the bandits who fled chose to kneel down and wait for disposal, he just kept running in the city of Nanjing, using his prestige to forcibly suppress the chaos that had just begun to spread and gradually restore order in the city.

Eventually, he stopped at the Duke of Wei's mansion.

"The Duke of Wei conspired against the rebellion, the crime is unforgivable, the Queen Mother and the prison state are the heirs of the King of Zhongshan Wuning, so they are exempted from the crime of punishment of the Er and other clans, and the Duke of Wei of the Xu family will not be abolished, in order to guard the worship of the King of Zhongshan Wuning."

Yang Qing said to the Duchess of Wei who was holding an iron coupon and waiting for her guilt in front of the door.

"The sinner woman thanked the Queen Mother for her grace in prison"

The latter said.

"Close the door and wait for disposal!"

Yang Qing nodded and said.

That's it, it's okay, it's Xu Da's descendants, the Xu family Dingwei two princes, the Dingguo Duke is in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Duke is in the south, and they all have iron coupons in their hands, this thing must be respected by him at present, at least Zhang Yan and Jian Guo are not qualified to take back the iron coupons, this thing is that the emperor has to take care of the impact if he wants to take it back. But the iron coupon protects the Xu family from extinction, and the title of the Xu family is not lost, and criminal exile and the like are definitely not guaranteed, and if an heir commits a crime, then it is very common for the emperor to appoint another person to inherit, as long as it is still a descendant of Xu Da.

In fact, it doesn't matter if he kills these people.

Iron coupons do not guarantee rebellion, he can characterize Xu Hongji as rebellion, but that is not good for Princess Kunxing's reputation after all, Zhu Di didn't kill Xu Huizu back then, and even after Xu Huizu died of illness, even the title of Duke of Wei was re-given to his son, Xu Hongji is still essentially the same as back then in the name of King Fu's succession, Princess Kunxing is a princess who is not more ruthless than Zhu Di, right?

Of course, the main thing is that he still has a little respect for Xu Da.

"Marquis Zhongyong, what does the prison country want to do with us?"

Duchess Wei asked.

"Leave one male to attack the lord, the other men will be exiled to Changhua Prison in Qiongzhou, and all the female dependents will stay in Beijing, and all the family property will be confiscated except for the Guogong Mansion, and all the other 5,000 acres of land will be confiscated."

Yang Qing said.

"Thou shalt not be better than my wealth!"

Duchess Wei sneered.

"Yes, but your greed has given us a chance, so there is no need to complain, in the end, the Xu family has enjoyed two hundred years of wealth and glory, and the Zhu family is worthy of the King of Zhongshan, but are you descendants worthy of the Zhu family?"

Yang Qing sneered.

What else did the Duchess of Wei want to say......

"Madame, say no more!"

A voice suddenly rang out.

Duchess Wei turned her head to look at a middle-aged man standing not far away.

"Marquis Huaiyuan is a smart man!"

She sneered.

Immediately after that, she turned around and went back to the mansion with the iron coupon in her hand, and then the gate of the Wei State Mansion was immediately closed.

"Marquis Huaiyuan."

Yang Qing arched his hand and said to the man.

"Is the Marquis of Zhongyong a little disappointed when he sees the old man?"

Chang Yanling said.

He is a descendant of Chang Yuchun, Chang Yuchun's Duke of Eguo was not inherited, but the two sons were named Zheng Guogong and the founding Duke respectively, one was cut off for crime and the other was Emperor Jianwen, and his party was also cut down, and it was not until Jiajing that he regained the title of Marquis of Huaiyuan. Chang Yanling was the only one in the history of Nanjing who did not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and he took his wife and daughter to grow vegetables for a family of three after the fall of Nanjing. Similarly, he is also the only noble who did not participate in this coup d'état, but there are still people in the Chang family, and there are several of his clansmen in the brocade guards who opened the door for Zhu Guobi.

Of course, none of this implicates him.

"I'm not too disappointed, I actually still have a lot of respect for King Kaiping Zhongwu."

Yang Qing said very frankly.

"If the old man guessed correctly, Huang Fei was also instructed by you to stay closed in Yangzhou, right?"

Chang Yanling said.

Huang Fei has an army of 40,000, of which there are thousands of them who followed Yang Qing to sweep through Liaodong and block Dolgon's elite in Tashan, but he held on in front of Bai Yongfu's 30,000 rabble, which is obviously abnormal, it is said that he is Yang Qing's second brother, and he can be said to be the core figure in Yang Qing's party. It is difficult to understand that this kind of cringe is so cringe at the moment of life and death of their gang, unless it is done on purpose, after all, Yang Qing can't do it if he doesn't leave, and Yang Qing must be in Jiangbei at the most critical time to go, if Huang Fei defeats Bai Yongfu in a battle and attacks Er Li, then Yang Qing's play will not be able to continue.

In this regard, Yang Qing can only repay it.

"Zhongyong Marquis is so calculating, no, I should say that they are too stupid!"

Chang Yanling sighed with emotion.

Then he turned around and walked away with endless sadness, the lonely footsteps echoed in the long street of stone slabs, like the sad song of the end of the Nanjing Xungui era, and the back of the bleak was like the tombstones of those prosperous families for hundreds of years......

"Smash this scene, prosperous fireworks!"

Yang Qing's convulsive singing suddenly sounded in the background not far behind him, when Jinyi Wei slammed open the door of another mansion like a wolf and a tiger......
