Chapter 69: Cao Ye's Death
At this time, the Wuzhou Governor's Mansion has gathered a large number of Guangxi generals, and the entire Guangxi, except for Jingyuan's troops, are all here, and even Cao Ye is sitting in Zhu Zhijian's Governor's Mansion at the moment
Several Guilin generals surrounded Cao Ye, "Lord Cao, what are we doing here?"
Cao Ye took a sip of tea and said, "If I knew that I would be doing it from here with you now?" If you come here, you will be safe."
Cao Ye heard in Guilin that Zhu Zhijian received a holy decree here, saying that he wanted to change the guard between Guilin and Wuzhou, and when he arrived, he found that almost all the troops in Guangxi had arrived in Wuzhou, and it was only at this time that Cao Ye realized that he was pitted by Zhu Zhijian, but now he can't leave if he wants to
Just when there was a commotion in the hall, suddenly Zhu Zhijian came, accompanied by Zhu Zhijian, and a large group of personal soldiers, surrounded the entire Governor's Mansion, and now at this time, fools can see what he Zhu Zhijian wants to do
Zhu Zhijian was dressed in armor and strolled to the lobby of the Governor's Palace, Cao Ye was the first of all the generals, "Lord Zhu, Your Majesty's holy decree can be invited out" Cao Ye said indignantly
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty is now captured in the Tartars, and now he is trapped in the heavens, where did the holy decree come from? Zhu Zhijian arched his hand to the northeast
The faces of everyone present changed, and Zhu Zhijian's meaning was already obvious, he didn't want to admit Longwu and still wanted the soldiers and horses in their hands
"Alas, don't mess with this, this official has already invited the King of Jingjiang and his old man to supervise the country" Cao Ye smiled, this King of Jingjiang and the Ming royal family can be said to have nothing to do with it, because this ancestor is only Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew, not even Zhu Yuanzhang's son, and it is farther than Longwu's bloodline
Before Cao Ye could speak, Zhu Zhijian invited Zhu Hengjia, the king of Jingjiang, out, and the generals were already dumbfounded, the most dumbfounded was the general of Guilin who followed Cao Ye, the king of Jingjiang was still in the palace under their noses a few days ago, and now he was standing in the governor's palace in Wuzhou, how could he not be shocked
While the generals were digesting the fact that King Jingjiang had appeared in Wuzhou, Yang Guowei, the general soldier of Guangxi, took the lead in standing up and saluting Zhu Hengjia
"The last general, see His Royal Highness the Prison State," the rest of the Wuzhou and Hezhou generals also saluted, and in the end, most of the Guangxi generals all knelt down and saluted, and only Cao Ye stood there
"Guangxi Governor Cao Ye meets His Royal Highness King Jingjiang!" Cao Ye shouted loudly and stood up immediately after saluting
Zhu Zhijian sat on the side and looked at Cao Ye, with bursts of killing intent in his eyes, "Lord Cao, I think you should call the prince His Royal Highness."
"Hmph, I think it's you Zhu Zhijian who wants to be called a lonely widow, Cao has no talent, and he is willing to die" Cao Ye glared at Zhu Zhijian with angry eyes, and Zhu Zhijian said with a sneer
"Okay, Zhu Moucheng Master Cao, fork out, cut it" As soon as Zhu Zhijian's voice fell, several pro-soldiers dragged Cao Ye out
"Zhu Zhijian, you can't die well! His Royal Highness King Gui is still in Jingyuan, do you think you can succeed? Hahahaha" Cao Ye's words before his death pierced Zhu Zhijian's heart like nails
The lobby of the Governor's Mansion was silent, and the generals looked at each other, not knowing what to do, "Ladies and gentlemen, His Royal Highness the Prison State has an order, tonight will hold a banquet in the Zuixian Building, please do it" Zhu Zhijian sent his own soldiers to "escort" the generals to the Zuixian Building, and on the same day, a large number of Zhu Zhijian's cronies took over all the defense of Wuzhou
On the night when Zhu Zhijian took over the Wuzhou soldiers and horses, Shopkeeper Sun returned to Jingyuan with people, and everyone was already waiting in the lobby of the guard
This is the first time since the construction of the new guard house that the lights are so brightly lit one night, Zheng Jue heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and suddenly his own soldiers stopped a beggar-like person, and it took a long time for the waiter to follow the shopkeeper Sun to the lobby
"Old Sun, how's it going? Don't drink it, I've drunk a pot," the shopkeeper Sun came in, sat down, picked up the teapot and poured it directly into his neck, fortunately, the tea was a little cold, otherwise this product would be wasted
Shopkeeper Sun put down the teapot a little unhappily and said slowly, "Zhu Zhijian invited the King of Jingjiang to Wuzhou, and Cao Ye was killed!" ”
Everyone couldn't imagine that Zhu Zhijian would dare to kill the governor of Guangxi, Ma Shiying slapped the table, and the teapot flew up
"Why did you kill Cao Ye?" Zheng Jue is still more concerned about this
"Lord Cao opposes the Jingjiang King to supervise the country, and Zhu Zhijian does not recognize the Tang King, and wants to serve the Hongguang Dynasty as the right Shuo, so that the Jingjiang King will supervise the country" The shopkeeper Sun said lightly, his eyes were fixed on the pot of water in front of Zheng Jue, the shopkeeper Sun ran for a whole day, and he didn't drink water for a day, and he couldn't wait to jump into the well now
"Second brother, what should I do?" Zhu Youlang asked Zheng Jue
"Jingyuan continues martial law, Scholar Ma University, do you want to go to Wuzhou?" Zheng Jue suddenly thought that since he didn't recognize Ma Shiying, the governor of Liangguang of the Longwu Dynasty, then he had to recognize him, the Dongge scholar of the Hongguang Dynasty, right?
Zheng Jue ordered Jingyuan Town to enter a state of combat readiness and imposed a curfew
The Rongchang Chamber of Commerce has just been established, although Jingyuan is under martial law, but it is only to control the entry and exit of the city, some streets are still more lively at night, Zheng Jue's curfew, but blocked the business opportunities of the merchants, the next day several gentry are planning to partner up to find Zheng Jue to see if the curfew can be accommodating
Before the gentry had gathered at the Chamber of Commerce, they heard drums beating outside the city, and a large number of four-wheeled carriages carrying a large number of soldiers and seniors on the street rushed towards the city gates
Zheng Jue was in a very bad mood, because it was a very unhappy thing to be woken up in the morning, for example, this morning, Zheng Jue was dreaming that he was back in the 21st century and was about to have a big meal, when he was suddenly woken up by the sound of war drums outside the city
It turned out that Zhu Zhijian sent 60,000 troops to surround Jingyuan City, Zheng Jue didn't smile, and was directly stunned
Not only Zheng Jue was stunned, but all the people in Jingyuan City were stunned, because no one expected that Jingyuan's first enemy would be the former Liangguang Governor Zhu Zhijian and his officers and soldiers
Zheng Jue walked up to the towering Jingyuan City Tower with the gas of getting up, Zheng Jue hadn't woken up yet, and he was already sweating profusely as soon as he climbed the steps up the city tower
Climbing to the city tower, Zheng Jue saw that Zhu Zhijian had brought tens of thousands of people to surround Jingyuan City, Zheng Jue looked at the black cannon muzzles on both sides, and Jingyuan City, which was guarded by hundreds of cannons of various kinds, and determined that Zhu Zhijian was not joking, at this time, Zhu Zhijian began to shout
"Zheng Jue, the puppet Jingyuan, together with the traitor Ma Shiying, held His Royal Highness King Gui hostage, and wanted to do something wrong, this official is holding the edict of His Royal Highness the Prison State, and hereby comes to attack Jingyuan and rescue King Gui, and the generals will listen to the order and attack the city immediately!" Zheng Jue was stunned, looking at a large group of ants and soldiers attacking the city, Zheng Jue was sure that Zhu Zhijian was not joking, but Zheng Jue did not order Jing Yuanwei's soldiers to fight back
