Chapter 774: Few Are Loyal Ministers

Enter the capital from the Shicheng Gate, and you can go all the way to the east to enter the palace by Xi'an Gate. However, Xi'an Gate is a partial gate of the palace, and Chen Yue's status naturally cannot enter the palace from there, but to enter the palace in a dignified manner through Hongwu Gate.

Therefore, I had to take a detour to the southwest from Shicheng Gate. Li Yi and the others are leading the infantry to pursue the rout of the guest army, and they will also enter the city to garrison later. However, there are no such guest troops in the city, although there are still Zhu Guobi's 50,000 Beijing battalion soldiers, Chen Yue is not afraid at all, with the 3,000 personal guard battalions that follow behind him, he can go anywhere in the world. And Zhu Guobi, Chen Yue expected that he didn't have the courage to go against him.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhu Guobi to rush over sweating, followed by Liu Neng who was smiling.

"Qi Guogong, you are finally here," Zhu Guobi ran towards Chen Yue excitedly, but was blocked by several guards with spears, Chen Yue waved his hand before being put close to him, but Zhu Guobi didn't look angry at all, and his bright smile was piled up on his fat face.

"Duke Qi Guo, don't you know, those dogs actually found a Tang King out of nowhere, and wanted him to be the prince, isn't this a rebellion, my brother was not good at that time, so I fought for it, but brother, you also know that my brother is very stupid, and he can't compete with those cunning civil officials, they also got several guest soldiers, and my brother didn't dare to move. Fortunately, brother, you came, Brother Liu Neng found me after entering the city, you don't know how happy I am......"

Zhu Guobi Balabala said, looking at Chen Yue's face as he spoke.

Chen Yue listened with a smile and said words of relief casually, which made Zhu Guobi's heart relax.

"Baoguo Gong, your Jingying is still stable, right?" Chen Yue asked casually.

"Stable, very stable," Zhu Guobi patted his chest and said, "It's just that my brother's health has not been good recently, and my energy is quite poor, Brother Chen, you look at the position of the governor of Beijing, or ......."

"You should take the position of the governor of Jingying first," Chen Yue said with a smile, "But Jingying should really be rectified, what to do then, our brothers will discuss it." ”

"When the time comes, brother, what do you say, my brother will definitely listen to you!" Zhu Guobi patted his chest and reassured.

Under the guidance of Zhu Guobi, Chen Yue led his men and horses to Hongwu, and Shi Kefa, the first assistant, led a group of court officials to greet Yu outside Hongwumen.

Chen Yue rode on a horse and looked at it, some of the ministers' faces showed fear, some were indignant, and some showed flattery.

Shi Kefa is the first, followed by the old Wang Duo, and the six Shangshu Hanlin Academy, the Imperial Shitai Inspectorate and other six officials of the Jiuqing, there are hundreds of people who are Beijing officials above the fourth grade, and the dismissed Wang Yin is also among them, standing not far behind Shi Kefa.

"Congratulations to the Duke of Qi to exterminate the thieves and return to the dynasty in victory!" Under Shi Kefa, hundreds of officials bowed down and saluted Chen Yue.

What's that? Chen Yue was stunned for a moment, yes, who said that Shi Kefa was upright, it turned out to be quite cunning!

Chen Yue's banner is on the side of the Qing monarch, which is not much different from the rebellion, of course, Princess Kunxing's edict can barely cover the shame. However, in the end, he returned to Beijing without following the holy decree and brazenly bombarded the city wall of Nanjing. In the mouth of the people, I am afraid that it is a rebellion.

Originally, if Shi Kefa could quickly pacify the city and lead the hundred officials to welcome him out of the city, then the relationship between the imperial court and Chen Yue would be considered an equal cooperative relationship, and Shi Kefa could persuade Chen Yue to bring only a few troops into the city, so that the material discussion could be reduced as much as possible and the balance and stability of the imperial court could be maintained.

But Chen Yue invaded the city and led the army straight into the city, which made Shi Kefa's plan fall through. Now that Chen Yue has entered the city with a tough attitude, if he cooperates with him, he will be regarded as giving in and damaging the majesty of the imperial court, but if he does not cooperate, he will inevitably cause chaos and endanger the society. After weighing everything, Shi Kefa had no choice but to use the excuse of welcoming Chen Yue to pacify the triumph of the thieves, and led the hundred officials out of the Hongwu Gate to cover up.

Although everyone knows what happened, and they all know that Chen Yue forcibly broke through Nanjing with military might, but now he is just a soldier to greet the triumphant, and other things will be discussed later, this is Shi Kefa's idea.

Most officials understand Shi Kefa's approach, especially the chief official of the Six Ministries and Nine Secretaries, Shi Kefa has already passed with them, although some people do not approve of Shi Kefa's approach, but at this time they have to be aggrieved. No one dared to anger Chen Yue at this time, it would bring disaster to themselves.

However, there are also those who dare to speak regardless of themselves, and Cheng Youqian, the imperial historian of the capital, looked at the countless colleagues wearing red official robes who bowed down in front of him, and looked at Chen Yue, who was riding on a horse to show off his might, and his expression became firm after his face changed.

"Hahaha, obviously a martial artist who rebelled, a traitor who brazenly attacked the capital, but he was greeted with the specifications of welcoming meritorious heroes, Yuan Fu, Zhu Gong, Er and others are all members of the imperial court, but they do such a shameless thing, would you rather be ashamed?"

Between the bent backbones, Cheng Youlian shouted mockingly, some officials suddenly turned red, and some young and vigorous people straightened up and refused to salute Chen Yue again.

Shi Kefa opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, if he spoke in a hurry at this time, it would inevitably make his image in the hearts of the officials plummet.

"Hehe, this adult said well, I, Chen Yue, am just a martial artist and a traitor. But I would like to ask, how did the thieves who plagued Jiangxi and Huguang pacified, did you sit in the yamen and write poems, and the adults who were happy and happy on the banks of the Qinhuai River?

Since you are waiting for me to be a traitor, I can't say that my father has to do something about a traitor. ”

With Chen Yue's words, several guards rushed into the queue of hundreds of officials, caught Cheng Youlian and dragged him out, and when Cheng Youlian wanted to scold, he was smashed in the stomach by a heavy fist from a guard, and his painful face twitched and he couldn't speak anymore.

Seeing this situation, the officials were in a commotion, and when the officials shouted and scolded to save Cheng Youlian, they were also knocked to the ground and dragged out, and the officials were suddenly shocked and didn't dare to say anything more.

"You say that this prince is a traitor, but this prince seems to be a traitor in the middle of you, the three princes were killed, Your Majesty had a stroke, and many people conspired to try to support the vassal king to usurp the throne, and even promoted what Tang Wang succeeded to the throne that could not be beaten by His Majesty's eight poles. And those who sacrifice their lives to kill the enemy for the country are said to be traitors by you, and they are really thieves who bite into the bones! It's just that the rights and wrongs will eventually be figured out, under the three woods of Jinyiwei, everything will be known who is traitorous and who is loyal! ”

The harsh words came out of Chen Yue's mouth, and the officials were even more frightened and trembling. Looking at the appearance of this deputy official, Chen Yue felt too disappointed at the same time, and then thought about the performance of the Beijing officials after Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, Chen Yue fell into a deep sigh, the old Zhu family is really a failure, there are no loyal officials in the three hundred years since the founding of the country.
