79 The Ugliness of Nanjing

After seven or eight days of sailing, Cao Bianjiao and his entourage finally arrived at the boundary of Nanjing without danger and entered the territory of Nanjing, Cao Bianjiao was also completely relieved.

"Marshal, Shi Kefa, the Shangshu of the Nanjing Military Department, has arrived at the ferry and has come to greet him!"

Shi Kefa can be regarded as the top figure in Nanming, at this critical moment, any speech and behavior of Shi Kefa is very important, Cao Bianjiao and he also have some friendship, although he is a little dissatisfied with Shi Kefa, but he still admires his integrity, Cao Bianjiao will naturally not slack off, and at the moment he also took his subordinates out of the cabin, came to the bow of the ship, far away, Cao Bianjiao saw a group of soldiers and generals surrounded by a group of officials in various costumes standing at the ferry, led by a middle-aged man in a dark red official robe, Looking like he was in his early forties, with his head held high and his demeanor upright, Cao Bianjiao recognized the other party at a glance, it was Shi Kefa himself.

"Master Shi, it's been a long time, it's been a long time!" When the big boat approached, Cao Bianjiao also shouted above the bow of the boat across the river, which seemed very cordial.

Shi Kefa also responded with his hand, and said with a smile: "It's difficult to see loyal ministers in the country, General Cao, I, Shi Kefa, thank you here!" ”

The ship "Click...... finally docked, and Cao Bianjiao also walked out of the cabin with the support of the sergeant, and stepped forward to greet Shi Kefa, as if he was meeting an old friend.

Cao Bianjiao had just landed here, and several ministers behind Shi Kefa also gathered around, and the one in front was a sturdy middle-aged and elderly man, and the two in the back, one of them was a roe deer, and the other had a haggard face, it was Qian Qianyi and Gao Hongtu, and almost all the important ministers of the Nanjing court had arrived, but they were not so eager, seeing this lineup, it was not not strong, and it was a formation to welcome the new monarch.

Cao Bianjiao also greeted them one by one under Shi Kefa's introduction, these people were also extremely polite, especially Qian Qianyi, very enthusiastic, and exchanged a few words with them, Cao Bianjiao pulled Shi Kefa aside, ready to let him go to see King Ding and King Yong first, Shi Kefa actually couldn't wait, to put it so lively, the most important thing is that King Yong and King Ding came safe and sound, otherwise any support for the new monarch is nonsense, but he believes that Cao Bianjiao will not spread rumors.

Cao Bianjiao beckoned, Zeng Ying, who was at the bow of the boat, also understood, entered the cabin, and helped the two children out not long after. These two little princes are really hard enough, they came out of the capital and wandered, first rode to Xuzhou in the south, did not breathe a sigh of relief, and then took a boat to Nanjing, they were all tired, with big eyes, but they looked stunned and unfocused. They have lived in the Forbidden City in Beijing since they were children, where have they been so tossed, these days they have been unadaptable, their bodies are also very weak, and they almost have no children. Cao Bianjiao deliberately found several doctors to take care of them at all times, but fortunately, he was only weak and there was no big problem, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry.

"Your Royal Highness, the old slave Han Zan is late for the week, and he has made the two suffer, the old slave is guilty!" Han Zanzhou, the eunuch left behind in Nanjing, squeezed out of the crowd, rushed over directly bypassing Cao Bianjiao, bowed down to the bow of the boat, and burst into tears, very sad.

Han Zanzhou was about to pull Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Cijiong to go down the boat, and at this time, Qian Qianyi and Gao Hongtu also hurriedly walked over, wanting to hug the two kings.

"General Cao, the old slave has thanked General Cao for the first emperor! If it weren't for the general's loyalty and bravery, how could the old slave see the little master again! Han Zanzhou cried bitterly, full of acting skills, and when he arrived in front of Cao Bianjiao, he still didn't forget to act. Cao Bianjiao doesn't understand, are you so excited, it's not your own grandson, so old, and there are a lot of tears and snot, and his ugliness is exposed.

"Gonggong Han, you have tormented Cao, Cao is also a Ming courtier, this is what Cao should do, isn't it, Cao also hates himself for being incompetent, and he couldn't arrive in time to rescue the first emperor!" Cao Bianjiao picked up Han Zanzhou, and also said something righteous and awe-inspiring, it is better to be modest at this time, and there is no need to be too arrogant.

"I'll send the two princes to Nanjing City to rest first, and we have to discuss the matter of ascending the throne!" At that moment, someone said that they should prepare to leave with King Ding and King Yong.

Cao Bianjiao naturally saw through their thoughts, but he just wanted to share the credit of this decision, and at that moment Cao Bianjiao also smiled at Shi Kefa and said: "Master Shi, everyone has worked hard, and the credit for welcoming them is a lot, and the court will rely on the help of several adults in the future!" Cao will send the two highnesses into the city, you just lead the way in front of the head! ”

"Cao Bianjiao, what do you want to do, do you want to enter the city on your behalf?" At this moment, Gao Hongtu, who was already pulling King Ding's arm, heard this, and also questioned, Cao Bianjiao wanted to bring soldiers and horses into the city, so it was not the other way around, they were people who read poetry and books, and they were worried that if one was not careful, what would happen if another Dong Zhuo appeared when the time came.

Cao Bianjiao glared at Gao Hongtu, suddenly pulled out his saber, and put it on Gao Hongtu's neck, and the sergeants behind him also stepped forward with troops to protect Cao Bianjiao, Cao Bianjiao pressed the blade, and a strong murderous aura shrouded Gao Hongtu's body, Gao Hongtu suddenly seemed to be frozen, and he didn't dare to move, Cao Bianjiao's sudden behavior made him frightened.

"The two highnesses were rescued by Cao, what nonsense are you talking about here, are you the two highnesses decoration, and who gave you such the courage to dare to hold the two highnesses hostage, can you pull the two highnesses at will, just by virtue of your actions, Ben Shuai immediately chopped off your hands, do you believe it?"

When Qian Qianyi heard this, he immediately shrank back in fright and retreated to the side, this Cao Bianjiao killed thousands of people in Anqing in one go, he didn't want to plant it in his hands, Gao Hongtu was also so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, Cao Bianjiao's eyes, like a wolf and an eagle, made him dare not face it, so he quickly let go and carefully retreated.

At this time, Shi Kefa suddenly said coldly: "What are you all doing, and whether you have the system of the imperial court, welcoming the prince to the throne, it is not something that can be said in one or two sentences, it is necessary to wait for the imperial court to come up with a set of plans. You are all ministers of the imperial court, you are pulling and pulling, what kind of system, General Cao is the minister who saves the sky, how dare you be so aggressive, all retreat! ”

Cao Bianjiao saw that Neng Shi Kefa also said two cruel words to reprimand them, so he could only snort coldly and withdrew his saber, after all, it is not good to kill people at this time.

"General Cao, it's funny! Don't mind, it's all in a hurry, so it's a bit rude! Shi Kefa arched his hand slightly, his face was full of shame, a group of court officials, figures who are famous all over the world in moral articles, are so unbearable, it is really not a glorious thing.

Cao Bianjiao also smiled: "Master Shi, if it weren't for this, Daming would not have fallen to today. On the occasion of the martyrdom of the first emperor, he shouted a sentence, do you know what it is, everyone should be killed, okay, enter Nanjing first, quickly settle down the people's hearts, and then do other things! ”

Shi Kefa was also stunned, his face was full of embarrassment, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I've already arranged it!" ”

In fact, the Donglin Party is worried that King Fu will be liquidated when he ascends the throne. The rest of the people ascended the throne, just dispelling their doubts, and they should be generous, but they are too obsessed with the work of planning, so they have caused the embarrassing situation today, and they don't have the bearing of those moral articles at all, but they are like unfilial sons fighting for family property.
