Chapter 283: Righteousness of the Monarch and Ministers
Yuan Pengnian, Meng Zhengfa, Jin Bao, Liu Xiangke and others, who had just escaped from hard labor, nodded their heads again and again, saying yes, after Li Chengdong died in battle, Emperor Yongli moved from Zhaoqing to Wuzhou, the four were not only dismissed, but also received the court staff and were expelled from the Yongli court.
After Kong Youde led his troops into GX, the four of them took advantage of the chaos to escape and came to the loyal army, and now they are awarded the title of Wang Fu Lang in front of the tent.
Jin Bao looked at Yang Xuan and found that Yang Xuan was in a very good mood, and he did not feel sad at all because of the various incidents that had occurred recently.
Thinking of his own suffering, thinking that Sun Kewang occupied Nanning in the name of King Qin and controlled Emperor Yongli in his hands, Yuan Pengnian and Jinbao, Meng Zhengfa, Liu Xiangke and others glanced at each other, what a great deal of strategy was waiting for him, thinking of this, the four of them knelt down together and said: "Lord Wang, if there is no owner today, that Tartar occupies the Holy Capital, steals artifacts, and enslaves the subjects of the world."
The king of the world is divided, there are rogues in the rebellion, there are Tartars outside the territory, the prince started in the middle of the martial arts, led 300 remnants of the defeated soldiers, recruited heroes from all directions, called loyal and brave, and raised the righteous soldiers in the world, in order to expel the Tartars and restore China, the subjects of the world heard it, and all looked forward to welcoming it.
During the expulsion of Zhang Xianzhong, Sun Kewang's generation, beheaded Haoge, Luo Luohun, Nikan, Duoduo and others, and now occupies the provinces of Yunnan, Guichuan and GX.
Now that the emperor was captured by Sun Kewang, I hope that the prince will go to the ceremony as soon as possible, in order to conform to the principles of heaven, calm the hearts of the people, and lead hundreds of thousands of loyal and righteous troops to the east to conquer the Northern Expedition to complete the unification of the world. ”
Jin Bao was broken because he offended the magnates of the Yongli Imperial Court, looking at the other party with a dirty face, Yang Xuan seemed calm, shook his head and said: "Brother Jin Bao, what you said is wrong, Da Ming is still clearly here, how can you say that Da Ming is dead?" ”
Seeing that the other party did not refuse sternly at all, and said such empty and tasteless words, Jin Bao seemed quite anxious, knelt on the ground and said: "Lord, there has been no immortal dynasty since ancient times.
Emperor Chongzhen's coal mountain hanged himself, and the Ming Dynasty had perished.
After that, Emperor Hongguang was captured and finally beheaded by the Tartars, and the Ming died again.
Emperor Longwu and Emperor Shaowu were originally the heroes of the world, but they died one after another by the enemy.
Today, Emperor Yongli favored the traitor, and the prince was not only not sealed, but also fled in fear when the Tartars were killed, and almost plundered by his cronies many times, and now he has fallen into the hands of Sun Kewang, so it seems that the Ming Dynasty has already perished. ”
After pondering for a moment, Yang Xuan sighed and said: "Having said that, this king and Emperor Yongli still have the righteousness of kings and ministers, and he has more brotherly feelings for the princess as the eldest princess, and now that he has fallen into the hands of the enemy, Emperor Yongli is being persecuted, how can I enjoy Qingfu?" ”
Gu Yanwu and Wang Fuzhi next to him glanced at each other, knelt down with everyone around them one by one and said: "Lord, there has been no dynasty that will not perish since ancient times, and the prince is now called the emperor, just to save Emperor Yongli."
After the prince became the emperor, he could send an envoy to Sun Kewang's camp and ask him to hand over Emperor Yongli, so that not only could the whole monarch and ministers be righteous, but also the net worth and life of Emperor Yongli could be saved. ”
Yang Xuan shook his head and sighed: "Everyone, don't say anything about being the emperor."
This king is a cloth cloth, just want to fit in the troubled times, just want to be a teacher in the peaceful and prosperous world, everyone let this king be the emperor, so how can this king have time to do these things? ”
Li Dingguo and the generals saw that the prince did not angrily reprimand the people of Jinbao at all, and felt the opportunity again, everyone glanced at each other, and suddenly knelt down together and asked: "Lord, although the Ming Dynasty said that it was light on the surface, but after the officials exploited it layer by layer, how many times the conscription imposed on the people?" The prince also had to abandon literature and martial arts because he couldn't stand the suffering of the Ming Dynasty's conscription.
The prince originally started from the cloth, in order to rejuvenate the world and raise troops to fight against the Tartars, the prince since the reign of the more benevolent government and benefit the people, the prince, that day to order the ancestors of the court and the public, Zhang Taiyue Gong to implement so many benevolent government, but in the end it is still the death of the government, the prince for the people of the world, should be called the emperor.
Lord, you have repeatedly warned your ministers and others to expel the Tartars, restore China, create a prosperous world together, and relieve the people. Lord Wang, think about it, Emperor Yongli only knows that he blindly escapes, is it a candidate to expel the Tartars?
Emperor Yongli appointed traitors, and his cronies and generals rebelled against him many times, can this kind of person create a prosperous world for the people?
Lord, unless you call yourself the emperor, how can you expel the Tartars, restore China, create a prosperous world, and relieve the people. ”
Unlike the heartfelt support of the Ming Dynasty in history, after the defeat, Li Dingguo and other Western armies mostly directly returned to the loyal and righteous army, and did not accept any court rewards, coupled with the deep-rooted contradictions between the two sides, the Ming Dynasty was not as supportive as in history.
Yang Xuan looked at Li Dingguo, pondered for a long time, and said quite emotionally: "Although Brother Ning Yu is reasonable, this king and Emperor Yongli have the name of monarchs and ministers, unless the Son of Heaven clearly decrees that this king can do such a thing."
Everyone, don't talk about this kind of thing, everyone, I have made up my mind, we must now find a way to rescue Emperor Yongli in every possible way. ”
When everyone saw Yang Xuan say this, they all proposed to pay attention to all aspects.
Yang Xuan left Wang Xiang's 16th town to guard Gui (after Lin, he personally led the 10th town of Feng Youqing, the 14th town of Hao Yongzhong, the 15th town of Li Laiheng, and the Duji Gui Cavalry Association to go down the post road to capture Nanning with Yang Bingyi's 5th town from YN.
Considering that Emperor Yongli was still in the hands of Sun Kewang, Yang Xuan ordered Ding Shikui, a member of the Privy Council, and Yang Wei, a counselor of the General Staff, to go to Nanning to lobby Sun Kewang to hand over Emperor Yongli.
In addition to using troops to Sun Kewang, considering that Chen Bangchuan had kidnapped the holy car and killed Jiao Lian, the king of Xuanshu, Li Dingguo led his troops and horses to approach Wuzhou to force Chen Bangchuan to surrender.
Sun Kewang entered Nanning in early October of the 4th year of Yongli and kidnapped Emperor Yongli, and when he heard that Kong Youde had invaded Gui (Lincheng), nearly 100,000 Southern Ming troops panicked, and Sun Kewang felt difficult to adapt to this situation.
When he was meditating, news suddenly came, claiming that Chen Bangchuan had failed to hijack the holy car, and now the holy car was running to Guiyang to join the loyal army.
After hearing this news, Sun Kewang's eyes lit up, if he could hijack the holy car and control the more than 100,000 troops, he could become the overlord of one party as much as he could, and he could become a prince of one party if he retreated.
Sun Kewang urgently recruited Bai Wenxuan, Wang Ziqi and other cronies and generals to discuss, everyone's eyes lit up, since being expelled from the YN by the Loyal and Righteous Army, everyone has been trapped in Nanning and other places, everyone is accompanied by the mountains every day, which is like Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu galloping across the field.
Li Dingguo can become a famous king twice and become a world-renowned hero, Li Dingguo can, and Sun Kewang thinks he can.
Thinking of this, everyone was determined to do a big job, and Wang Ziqi led the men and horses to kill it.
After the fall of Guangzhou and Guilin, Emperor Yongli was like a frightened bird, and his generals knew that it would be difficult to make a comeback, and some of them fled with their families, and suddenly encountered thousands of fierce and vicious Western troops, and the whole process was without any suspense.
After hearing that it was Sun Kewang's army, Shoufu Yan Qiheng said in a fierce voice: "The holy driver is here, don't you dare to make such a mistake, aren't you afraid of the hundreds of thousands of loyal and righteous army of the King of Shu?" ”
Seeing Yan Qiheng so verbose, Wang Ziqi was furious and slashed down, Yan Qiheng was cut to the ground, and his head was in a different place.
Wang Ziqi kicked Yan Qiheng's corpse, and said viciously: "Everyone, Yang Xuan is the king of Shu, and our lord is the king of Pingdong, since both of them are kings, I don't know who is afraid of whom, but now you must obey Lao Tzu." ”
Seeing the bleeding treasure knife, listening to the roar of the urn of the Northwest Han Dynasty, everyone had no choice, and a group of ministers led by Wu Zhenyu, the second assistant, Ma Jixiang, the secretary of the military department, and Pang Tianshou, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, had to obey their orders and were taken to Nanning City by Wang Ziqi.
After getting Emperor Yongli, Sun Kewang quickly sent messengers to Chen Bangchuan, Hu Yiqing, Zhao Yinxuan and other departments, hoping that they would obey his command.
Seeing that Emperor Yongli had become a useless puppet in his own hands, and hearing that Li Dingguo had killed Kong Youde, and that the loyal army occupied Gui (Lin Hou was approaching Nanning in two ways, Sun Kewang felt a burst of anger, and came to the courtyard where Emperor Yongli lived with his hands on his waist and full armament on this day.
Seeing Sun Kewang angry, Wu Zhenyu and the others trembled and came out, shouting: "King Qin is angry." ”
In order to bargain for a bargain, Sun Kewang forced Emperor Yongli to entitle himself as the king of Qin ten days ago, how dare Emperor Yongli, who became the meat on Sun Kewang's chopping board, disobey, and responded in fear, so that people could write a good edict.
Sun Kewang pressed the handle of the knife with one hand, and pointed at Zhu Youlang with the other and said: "You, you wretched, why is it useless, no one wants to be the king of Qin after sending so many edicts."
Now that Yang Xuan is leading tens of thousands of troops to kill, tell me, how to deal with it? ”
Hearing that Yang Xuan was coming, Emperor Yongli, who had almost openly broken up over the matter of dividing the seal, secretly complained to himself, knowing that why would he make trouble all over the city for a king of Qianshu today?
Now that Yang Xuan doesn't have his own edict, he calls himself the king of Shu, and there is no problem at all? Why bother in the first place when you know today?
Thinking of this, Emperor Yongli sighed and said, "King Qin, what do you say?" This Yang Xuan is deferential and abnormal on the surface, but in fact he harbors evil intentions, what do you say? ”
Sun Kewang shook his head and said: "Since this is the case, then please ask the emperor to issue an edict, saying that this Yang Xuan is a rebel, as long as this Yang Xuan enters the territory of Nanning, he is a rebel?" ”
Zhu Youlang looked at Wu Zhenyu next to him and said, "Shoufu, you can draw up the purpose, everyone knows what kind of character this Yang Xuan is." ”
Wu Zhenyu nodded, and immediately wrote the holy decree on a desk, showed it to Zhu Youlang, and was about to use the seal, when he suddenly saw Bai Wen Xuanxing coming in a hurry, whispering a few times in Sun Kewang's ear.
Sun Kewang glared at Emperor Yongli and walked away from the courtyard where Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang lived.
When I came to the center of the hall, I saw Ding Shikui and Yang Wei fighting in the center of the hall from a distance.
Yang Wei is Liu Wenxiu's general, and he was quite familiar with Sun Kewang in the past, but seeing that it was Yang Wei and others, Sun Kewang looked disapproving and said: "Yang Wei, I used to be the leader of your alliance, how can you betray the alliance have the face to see your alliance leader." ”
Yang Wei sighed and said: "General, I waited thousands of miles to come, but the general not only did not offer a little condolences but opened his mouth to ridicule, is this the general's demeanor as the leader of the alliance?"
We used to be subordinates of the general, but the general also did not help us, so we had to go to the lord, if we talk about responsibility, who is not probably said for three or five days. ”
When Sun Kewang heard that Yang Wei was about to expose his shortcomings, he said angrily: "People like you still dare me to talk about responsibility, pigs and dogs are not as good as things, tell me, why did Yang Xuan send you here?" ”
Yang Wei said with a smile: "General, the lord sent me here to show the general a clear way.
Now that my two armies are pressing, the general has no chance of winning, and if the general follows the will of my lord, he will not lose a fortune. ”
Sun Kewang smiled and said: "Why am I worried about being rich, now in the hands of Emperor Zhu Youlang of Yongli, although he is just a puppet, but he is still the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty, why should I worry about being rich and noble with it?"
You go and tell Yang Xuan, Emperor Yongli I can give it to him, but he must assign GX to my Sun Kewang's jurisdiction, other than that, there is nothing to talk about? ”
Yang Wei smiled: "General, your little bit of interest is just a piece of land, what's the big deal." But the land given by the prince is not GX, but ......? ”
Sun Kewang hurriedly asked, "What is it?" ”
Yang Wei said with a smile: "The prince said, as long as your grandson is willing to accept the reorganization, and work with the prince to go north to the Tartars, and after the Tartars are eliminated, the prince will give you a bigger piece of territory." ”
Sun Kewang smiled and said: "Hehe, this is a novelty, Yang Xuan is willing to tear the soil and seal the king, tell me, which territory is it?" ”
Yang Wei said with a smile: "It's Jiaozhi Cheng Xuan Political Envoy Division, when the time comes, you will rule Jiaozhi Cheng Xuan Political Envoy Division, how about it, Jiaozhi has two hundred counties, both the area and the population are far larger than GX."
When Sun Kewang heard this, he laughed and said: "This, this is the biggest joke this king has heard, Jiaozhi is the territory managed by the king of Annan, does Yang Xuan want to take it down and give it to this king with all his might."
You go and tell Yang Xuan, unless he agrees to quit GX and let my old grandson tear the earth and become the king, nothing will be discussed. ”
Yang Wei shook his head and said, "General, do you think this is possible?" Do you think that Emperor Yongli has a lot of hole cards in your hands, but is it useful?
If you do anything unfavorable to Emperor Yongli, my king will just do the right thing for heaven and avenge Emperor Yongli.
General, for the sake of the deceased, my words have been brought, so I hope the general will think twice before acting. ”
When Bai Wenxuan heard this, he also admonished: "King Qin, if we are unfavorable to Emperor Yongli and just solve an obstacle for Yang Xuan, Yang Xuan can't ask for it, King Qin, don't be fooled." ”
Wang Ziqi also admonished: "King Qin, as soon as you look at Yang Weikai's conditions, you know that Yang Xuan has no sincerity to negotiate at all, isn't Jiaozhi now under the management of King Annan?" Isn't Yang Xuan fooling us like this? ”
When Sun Kewang heard this, his face turned pale, and he glared at Yang Wei viciously and said: "You, you give Lao Tzu a go, if Yang Xuan is willing to bear the crime of killing the king, if so, let Yang Xuan try." ”
Yang Wei had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.
