Chapter 490: The Choice of the Subordinates of the East Temple (Part II) - Zeng Shuiyuan Returned to Shun

Therefore, Zeng Shuiyuan had already made up his mind and waited for the king's appeasement. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

But I didn't expect that this Fu Xuexian would come up with some edict from the East King, so let's see what is going on first.

After Zeng Shuiyuan finished thinking, he summoned the generals above the military commander to gather at the governor's yamen. Soon, all the generals above the military commander level in Anqing City arrived, and there were more than ten people in total.

Fu Xuexian's face was full of sorrow, and he announced with a serious face: "The East King was murdered by the King of Heaven and the Northern Thief, and unfortunately ascended to heaven, and all of our ministers in the East Palace were condemned as rebels by the Emperor of Heaven, and all the subordinates of the family were killed by Wei Changhui, the dog thief, and this revenge is not shared!" Now the king of the east left a blood edict before returning to heaven, so that everyone can watch it together to decide where to go. ”

As soon as Fu Xuexian finished speaking, the generals below shouted:

"Avenge the King of the East!"

"I knew that Wei Changhui was not a good thing, he usually flattered in front of the East King, but now he actually murdered the East King, I want to avenge the East King!"

"Brothers, if it weren't for the East King to bring us, how could we be today, I didn't say it, Futianhou, you hurry up and take out the blood edict of the East King."

Fu Xuexian unfolded the blood edict, and a few people who were literate read it out: "Edict: All the soldiers defected to the king of the south, but they could save their lives, kill the thief, and avenge the king!" ”

The generals looked at each other, it had been rumored that the king of the east and the king of the south were not in agreement, but now it seems that it is not the case at all, and the blood edict of the king of the east says that everyone will defect to the king of the south.

Fu Xuexian saw the stitches and said: "In the desperate situation of the siege of the Northern Thieves, the East King still thinks of everyone and our soldiers in the East Palace. He saw the northern thieves frantically killing the relatives in the East Palace, and knew that sooner or later they would come to find the soldiers of the East Palace, and they would not stop if they did not kill all the people in our East Palace. And the King of Heaven tolerates and even indulges the northern thieves on the side, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to go to the king of the south is to follow the orders of the king of the east and ask him to help our soldiers in the east hall to support their anger! ”

Fu Xuexian's words were very straightforward, directly pointing out that the East King was killed, and the King of Heaven also had a share, preventing everyone from taking refuge in the King of Heaven from the perspective of righteousness and emotion.

Zeng Shuiyuan saw that if it went on like this, his desire to take refuge in the Heavenly King was not complete, and he hurriedly said: "Futianhou is silent!" Don't say that the king of heaven is like this, the king of heaven should also be forced by the northern thief to be like this! ”

Fu Xuexian said loudly: "The Northern Thief claimed to be under the secret edict of the Heavenly King, led three thousand soldiers from the North Palace, and rushed back to Tianjing City from Jurong. With the edict in hand, he opened the city gate and went directly into the palace of the East King. And these happened three days after the Eastern King Heavenly Father descended to earth and blamed the Heavenly King, isn't it obvious? It was manipulated by the Heavenly King, and the Northern Thief was just a knife! ”

Zeng Shuiyuan was speechless, in fact, who doesn't think like this in their hearts? It's just that they don't dare to say it.

But Fu Xuexian had already taken refuge in the new master, and in return for the previous favor of the East King, regardless of it, he said straight to the point: "I heard just now that the King of Heaven personally issued an edict declaring the East King to be the East Rebel, and we, the subordinates of the East Palace, above the brigade commander, are all traitors and comrades, so that the Taiping soldiers of the entire Heavenly Kingdom will arrest us and others." That's not all, just two days ago, the King of Heaven and the King of the North issued a special edict, announcing that the Winged King Shi Dakai was a rebel against the Heavenly Kingdom, saying that the Winged King had an affair with the Qing Demon and rebelled against the Qing Demon. You say, this kingdom of heaven is messed around like this by the king of the north and the king of heaven, can it still be saved? ”

The two blockbuster news that Fu Xuexian said one after another shocked everyone into a state of confusion. I only heard Fu Xuexian continue: "It's still the blood edict of the East King that is right, now, we, the old ministers of the East Palace, have become rebels of the Kingdom of Heaven, and only by going to the South King can we save our lives." can also avenge the graceful king of the east! ”

After Fu Xuexian finished speaking, the generals had been persuaded and agreed.

"Futianhou is right! Only by defecting to the king of the south can we not only save our lives, but also avenge the king of the east! ”

"Futianhou, now that you and Prime Minister Zeng are the people with the highest position in our East Palace, it is better for you to lead us and others to defect to the King of the South, avenge the King of the East, and continue to kill the demons!"

"Great! As I said a long time ago, the king of the east and the king of the south are the pillars of the kingdom of heaven, and now that the king of the east has ascended to heaven, we can only save the kingdom of heaven by taking refuge in the king of the south. ”

These generals are also general, knowing that this Fu Xuexian must have already taken refuge in the King of the South, so he will belittle the King of Heaven so hard, as if he is very loyal to the East King's will, but in fact it is very clear that this is for the King of the South to win everyone.

Still, they're happy to do that too!

For a long time, the Eastern King was directly responsible for the military and political power of the entire Heavenly Kingdom, especially the military command, which was almost always decided by the Eastern King alone, and the Heavenly King had no chance to intervene. As a result, in the entire Heavenly Kingdom, many low-level Taiping soldiers even heard the name of the East King more than the Heavenly King, and the prestige of the East King was even higher than that of the Heavenly King. In their opinion, the king of heaven is high above, as ethereal as the "heavenly father", and the king of the east is full of ordinary marches and battles, so they feel that the king of the east is the mountain and the pillar of the kingdom of heaven.

Especially these subordinates of the East Palace, they are all hand-picked by the East King, not to mention how loyal, at least they are all grateful. As soon as the East King left, it was like the god in his heart collapsed, and he urgently needed a new god to rely on, and because Yang Xiuqing usually resisted the Heavenly King, he deliberately reduced the influence of the Heavenly King in the army, resulting in the Heavenly King being unable to act as this god.

But Nanwang can! Not to mention that the blood edict of the East King clearly wrote that everyone should defect to the South King, just from the brilliant achievements of the South King, he is far more suitable than the King of Heaven, or even the East King, to become the leader of the Kingdom of Heaven, leading everyone to kill demons and establish the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.

In two years, the king of the south led a partial division, with more than 1,000 old brothers in Guangxi who could fight, thousands of brand tails, occupied southern Hunan and Liangguang in turn, and now it is the vast majority of the areas south of the Yangtze River.

These soldiers of the Heavenly Kingdom, they don't say anything about it, but they occasionally think in their hearts that if they had followed the king of the south and went south to Liangguang, they might have been commanders, inspectors and even similar positions now.

Those inconspicuous little minions, ordinary holy soldiers and even the tail of the card, followed Queen Nan, and now they are already the main generals of tens of thousands of people, and they were the brigade commanders (pawn commanders) at the beginning. Naturally, there is a feeling of being buried in my heart.

Now that there is another opportunity to choose, we must seize it, whether there is a blood edict from the king of the east or not, we must defect to the king of the south, so that we can make contributions.

What's more, the Taiping Holy Kingdom of King Nan is also of the same origin and root as the Kingdom of Heaven, but its restrictions on itself are much more relaxed. Allowing husbands and wives to live together, hearing that there can be military salaries, and private individuals can own property and land, these are the goals of their own struggle.

Unlike today's kingdom of heaven, not only husbands and wives have to separate camps, but even family members have to separate camps. Not to mention the property and fields, even the soldiers are not paid, and it is precisely because of this that some time ago, it happened that the Qing demon spies in Tianjing City instigated the Taiping soldiers to make a rebellion, and almost made the Qing Demon's Jiangnan camp successfully attacked.

"Brother decided, so he followed Futianhou and Prime Minister Zeng to defect to the King of the South!"

"Yes, count a few of us as well! There are Futianhou and Prime Minister Zeng Cheng to lead us to find the king of the south and avenge Zhaoxue for the king of the east! ”

"Futianhou, Prime Minister Zeng, don't do anything to discuss or not! It's so decided, if anyone doesn't obey the blood edict of the king of the east, Lao Tzu will cut him down now! ”

"That's it! It's still refreshing to follow the king of the south to kill the demons! As today's country is fighting for power and profit, Lao Tzu is tired of it. What is said in his mouth that everyone is equal, he changes dozens of princesses in a month, and Lao Tzu has not even dared to touch his wife for three years! ”

"Yes, if we, the soldiers of the East Palace, follow the orders of the East King and take refuge in the South King, we will definitely make the South King's army mighty, and in a few years, we will be able to assist the South King, kill all the demons, and establish a peaceful and prosperous world!"

The generals made decisions one after another, looking forward to the beautiful scenery of the Queen South.

even condemned the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan outside the words. Also, everyone knows that husbands and wives and even family members should also divide the camp according to men and women, which is what the king insists on. The king of the east proposed several times to reunite the families of the soldiers, but the king of heaven denied it.

Fu Xuexian's audience mentioned himself, and he was also excited, and secretly said that this errand was done, maybe he could really get the attention of the king of the south, and hurriedly said: "As the heart of the king of the east, this marquis is naturally obliged to lead everyone to obey the last order of the king of the east, take refuge in the king of the south, and avenge the king of the east." ”

And Zeng Shuiyuan, who was on the side, secretly felt bitter in his heart: "What do you say is not good, and you will also bring me with you." And let me lead you to the king of the south. Well, what's this called? Originally, I wanted to persuade everyone to take the opportunity to return to the Heavenly King, but now looking at the situation, I dare not open this mouth. ”

He couldn't help but overturn the idea that he had thought about all night before, and began to seriously think about the pros and cons of defecting to the King of the South.

The holy kingdom of the king of the south, the power is all over the south, the soldiers are strong and strong, especially the business with foreigners makes a lot of money, the foreign guns and foreign cannons bought are very powerful, and recently I heard that even they can make foreign guns themselves, and they have a huge advantage against the Qing demon.

What's more critical is that the last time he saw Nanwang in Guiyang, Nanwang sent a signal to recruit him, which shows that Nanwang attaches great importance to himself.

At the beginning, he was under the account of the King of Heaven, but he was not taken seriously so he took refuge in the East King, who valued him more. Now, if you defect to the King of the South, you will definitely be more valued than the King of Heaven.

On the other hand, on the side of the Heavenly Kingdom, the attack on Wuchang failed, and he had to be trapped on the Yangtze River. But as soon as the camp in the south of the Yangtze River was broken, there was a chaos in Tianjing, the pillar of the heavenly kingdom --- the tragic death of the king of the east, the death of the soldiers of the east hall, and the escape of the fleeing, a chaos, and the situation became more and more unfavorable.

With a little groaning, Zeng Shuiyuan had already made a decision.

"Good! Since all the brothers must respect the blood edict of the East King, and uphold the kindness and will of the East King, Shui Yuan will lead everyone to serve the South King! ”
