Chapter 11: The Great War of the Blessed King
I stood on the bow of the boat, the boat went north along the Yangtze River, the closer to Nanjing, the more officers and soldiers guarded along the way, buddy, my heart kept beating.
Damn it! The words I just said to Zheng Chenggong were really impassioned, but I really don't want to die.
There's no way, since the words have been released, you can only bite the bullet.
Around noon, we arrived at the Nanjing Wharf.
In the distance, there is a splendid palace on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, if I guess correctly, it should be Nanjing Bauhinia City, that is, the imperial palace.
As soon as we got off the boat, we were stopped by the officers and soldiers, who interrogated: "Who are you waiting for, and what are you doing in Beijing?" ”
When I heard this, I panicked a little, and I felt that I might be killed before I even entered the palace.
At this time, Zheng Chenggong stood up and scolded: "Fujian sailor Zheng Sen meets the emperor in person, do you want to check it too?" ”
"The little one doesn't dare, and please show the general the talisman!"
Zheng Chenggong took out the talisman, and the officers and soldiers obediently let him go, and Lao Tzu breathed a sigh of relief.
I have to say that in such a situation, the only thing I can rely on is Zheng Chenggong.
Because his father's sailors crisscrossed the sea, King Fu had to rely on him if he wanted to sit firmly in the country, so King Fu called the emperor and sealed him and his father high-ranking officials.
With Zheng Chenggong here, all the checkpoints we encountered were released, and soon we arrived at Xuanwu Lake, and the opposite of Xuanwu Lake was the imperial palace.
Zheng Chenggong took out the talisman, and as soon as the official army finished speaking, he let go, and at this moment, a team of cavalry wearing armor rushed over.
The leading general shouted: "Can't let them go, they're assassins!" ”
"Lord Dutong, can't you even recognize me Zheng Sen?" Zheng Chenggong scolded.
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of arrows whizzed over, obviously someone had already reported to King Fu, and Zheng Gongcheng didn't work at this time.
"Protect the emperor!"
Wang Chengen roared, and several guards stood in front of me, and they were shot to death in an instant.
Damn! This Fu Wang is too ruthless, this is to kill me to feel at ease.
"What are you doing in a daze, kill in!"
Zheng Chenggong roared, and Guan Ning's eighteen horsemen and Xia Wanchun's horses rushed up, and the two teams of men and horses met each other in short arms.
I couldn't help but worry, even though they were all first-class masters, I was also worried that they were outnumbered.
Just when I was very nervous, Xia Wanchun made a cut, rushed into the official army, jumped up violently, brandished a copper hammer, and burst the brains of the soldiers and died on the spot.
I grass! He is simply born with divine power, and he feels even more awesome than Li Yuanba!
Zheng Chenggong and others were not far behind, the officers and soldiers who were killed retreated step by step, and the officers and soldiers saw that the generals were all dead, and some even threw away their armor and fled.
I thought to myself, this time I should have the chance to win, but I didn't expect that at this moment, several teams of people rushed out of the palace.
The leader was a middle-aged uncle, who didn't look like a soldier, because he didn't wear a military uniform, but a civilian uniform embroidered with a white crane on his chest.
"Traitor Zheng Sen, you don't surrender soon!" The middle-aged uncle shouted weakly.
Zheng Chenggong roared while killing: "Master Shi, Zheng Sen was ordered to welcome the current emperor into the palace, what is a traitor." Keep your eyes peeled to see who's sitting in the back. ”
This civil official surnamed Shi glanced at me and was stunned for a moment, wanting to say something, but he didn't dare to say it.
"Shi Kefa, the secretary of the ministry, why don't you kneel when you see the emperor!" Wang Chengen scolded.
I rub! This guy is actually the famous Shi Kefa.
I remember Gao Xiaosong mentioned when he talked about "The Tragic Song of the Southern Ming Dynasty" that Shi Kefa was a loyal minister.
When the Qing army attacked Yangzhou, Shi Kefa lived and died with the people, after the city was broken, Dolgon slaughtered the city for ten days, and the Han people killed were almost extinct.
Hearing Wang Chengen say this, Shi Kefa hesitated, his face was solemn, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
When I looked at his hesitant look, I remembered that Gao Xiaosong had criticized him, saying that although he was patriotic, he was a typical stinky intellectual, timid in doing things, and had no opinions.
"Master Shi, if you don't kneel yet, what's your intention!" Zheng Chenggong shouted again.
As soon as he said this, Shi Kefa was about to dismount and salute, but he didn't expect a sissy voice on the city tower to shout: "Master Shi, the first emperor has already died, and now you should know better than me who the Son of Heaven is!" ”
I looked up and looked,! Standing on the tower of the city was actually the scumbag who ventured into the territory.
Okay, you are a brave man, I really didn't misunderstand you, for the sake of fame and fortune, you took refuge in King Fu, Lao Tzu is going to seize power successfully, and the first person to kill is you scumbag.
Shi Kefa hesitated again, looked at Mao Bijiang, and then looked at me.
I thought about it, I don't want to speak again at this time, Shi Kefa's will definitely not surrender yet.
So I said: "Shi Kefa, if you are familiar with Confucius and Mencius, have you even forgotten the matter of loyalty, righteousness and filial piety?" ”
The reason why I say this is because I know that a stinky intellectual like him values the way of Confucius and Mencius the most.
Sure enough, after saying this, Shi Kefa immediately knelt down and said loudly: "Shi Kefa knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”
Seeing this, the upstairs of the city stamped their feet, turned around and disappeared.
"The emperor is here, don't stop yet!" Zheng Chenggong shouted.
The officers and soldiers who were still resisting saw that Shi Kefa was kneeling, so they put down their weapons and knelt down, and then gave me a way to the city gate.
I rode over slowly, Shi Kefa was still kneeling on the ground, and kept saying: "The criminal minister has no eyes, please atone for the emperor!" ”
To tell the truth, any emperor who encounters such a thing will definitely behead him immediately, but I read that he is a scholar, but he is just confused for a while, and I still need to know the situation of other officials in Nanjing through him, so I said: "Now is the time to employ people, lest you not die, get up!" ”
"Long live thanks!"
After saying that, the stinky intellectual stood up with a roll, and then rode a horse to escort me into the palace.
A team of more than 20 people stepped into the Nanjing Imperial Palace in this way, and the guards and maids in the palace did not dare to say anything when they saw this.
Soon we came to the Taihe Palace, and the front of the temple was surrounded by thousands of forbidden soldiers, each eyeing me.
Although I was a little scared, I still got off the horse, and Shi Kefa was leading the way.
I don't have to think about it to know that these forbidden soldiers are Fu Wang's people, but they didn't do anything with me right away.
Walking to the gate of the Taihe Palace, Shi Kefa said, "Your Majesty, please come in." ”
But I was stunned by the scene in the hall, and I saw that on the dragon chair at the top of the hall, there was a fat guy like a pig, who was two hundred pounds, to say the least.
He was wearing a dragon robe, his eyes were fascinated, and he leaned on the dragon chair with a calm demeanor, as if nothing had happened, and he felt a lot of relief!
If I'm not mistaken, this fat pig should be the legendary Fu King.
But I never thought that I would come in, and he was still so calm, it seems that things are far from being as simple as I thought.
On both sides of the main hall, there are dozens of civil and military officials, some of them look very calm, and some of them are looking around with thief eyebrows, and the literary and artistic scumbag is among them.
To be honest, watching them sit like this, buddy, I feel very empty.
Because at this time, what is fighting is not force, but political struggle, and a struggle for power.
I gritted my teeth, silently thought in my heart, die or die, and then followed Shi Kefa in.
Seeing Emperor Chongzhen appear, the ministers couldn't help but feel a commotion, but King Fu still sat calmly.
At this moment, the scumbag who Mao Bijiang stood up and scolded sharply: "Shi Kefa, why don't you kneel when you see the emperor!" ”
I grass! What this hanging hair said was righteous words, and Shi Kefa was at a loss.
"It's you thieves who should kneel, haven't you seen the emperor come up?" Zheng Chenggong said loudly.
Everyone looked at each other, and some wanted to kneel for me, but they didn't dare, and two groups of people froze for a while.
At this moment, the Fat Pig Fu King opened his eyes and said softly, "General Zheng, who is this person you brought?" Could it be that he is another person who wants to pretend to be the emperor? ”
As soon as I said this, I laughed and broke out in a cold sweat on my back, and I didn't know how to deal with it.
