Chapter 258: Jin Yiwei (II)
Luo Yangde!
Jin Yiwei commanded Luo Sigong's second son, who was involved in North Korean affairs at the time, and he was the whistleblower of this tragedy!
This is the first person Ling Ming wants to kill!
Luo Yangde is a gentleman, Zhida is not to mention, and he is still thinking about how to surpass his brother Luo Yangxing and snatch the throne of the commander under his father's ass - so he came to North Korea and clamored to make "immortal achievements".
In the forty-fifth year of Wanli (1618 AD), the opportunity that this gentleman thought had finally come!
At that time, the Ming army was sharpening its knives and making final preparations for the upcoming Battle of Sarhu; One of them was to ask North Korea's Gwanghaejun Li Hun to send troops to assist - in the summer of that year, North Korea received three letters from Liaodong Commander Qiu Tan and Quang Ninh Commander Wang Keshou, requesting North Korea to send troops to support.
However, at that time, Li Hui was afraid of the unified Tartars, and he privately believed that "the old chieftain was rebellious, although he could not exterminate it in one fell swoop with the strength of China and North Korea", and adopted a perfunctory and delaying strategy for the orders of the Ming court; In the Korean court, although the opinion of most officials was that Shunming would help suppress him, there were seven people led by Huang Zhongyun, who was a Taiwanese adviser, who supported Li Hui and opposed sending troops.
Luo Yangde felt that this Huang Zhongyun had become the biggest obstacle to North Korea's sending troops, as long as he could be eliminated, the voice of support for Li Hui in the court would disappear, and Li Hui could only send troops - after all, it was difficult for the public to be angry.
So Luo Yangde decided to assassinate Huang Zhongyun!
His decision almost aroused the unanimous opposition of the Jinyi guards who had placed hidden piles all over Seoul, and everyone felt that there was no need to take the risk - after all, it was the general trend for Shunming to help suppress him, and Li Hui would have to compromise sooner or later, unless he, the king of Joseon, did not want to be the king; The second is that this kind of assassination deep into the hinterland of Seoul is extremely difficult to achieve, and the possibility of failure is too great.
But Luo Yangde insisted on going his own way, relying on his father to be the commander. forcibly requiring the transfer of manpower from various places; He succeeded in everyone else, but when he got to Lao Mouzi, he didn't like him at all-Lao Mouzi has this character, he thinks that he will never compromise on the wrong thing-how Luo Yangde coerces and seduces him is stunned, and he has no manpower!
This completely offended Luo Yangde, he let go of the cruel words, after this "great achievement" is established, he must clean up the old planner!
The result was not as expected by Lao Mouzi. Even if this guy brought a group of elites who collected it, he still caused a total annihilation in the assassination farce in front of Huang Zhongyun's house, and he was also arrested.
After being caught, this grandson couldn't bear the punishment at all, and 1510 put aside everything he knew, and then there was a city-wide search in Seoul!
The dark stake of Jinyiwei in Seoul was pulled out cleanly, and dozens of human heads rolled to the ground and were hung outside the four gates of Seoul for public display!
What's even more infuriating is that after Luo Yangde fell. Luo Sigong didn't know what kind of way he was looking for, but he actually got this guy out.
Seeing that this guy swaggered out of Seoul and was about to take a boat back to Jewupo, Ling Ming, who had been following him to find an opportunity to attack, couldn't help it anymore and stabbed him to death at the moment before he got on the boat.
killed Luo Yangde, and Lao Mouzi's revenge was half avenged; The other half was very troublesome - although Ling Ming had already found out, the person who presided over the arrest that night was Jin Yingzhi, the judge of the Righteous Forbidden Mansion under Bing Cao. But this is the head of the North Korean secret agent, how can he be so easy to kill?
And when he assassinated Luo Yangde. Ling Ming's identity has been completely exposed, and he was arrested nationwide by the Yi Forbidden Mansion, forcing him to hide everywhere, and he relied on superb disguise skills to escape several times.
In desperation, Ling Ming hid on Phi Island, which was full of Liaodong refugees.
As soon as he arrived on Phi Island, another piece of news that made him desperate came to his face: Jinyi Weinan Zhenfu Si had listed him as the number one traitor. Command the whole guard, focus on arrest!
Fortunately, not long after Dongjiang Town was established, Jinyiwei's power was very weak, so Ling Ming was able to stay after he became incognito.
Just a few years later. He really couldn't hold back his homesickness, so he secretly took the grain boat in Dengzhou, came to the banks of the Shahe River in Dengzhou, and was about to find a way to go back to Beijing, but happened to catch up with the pillar to recruit people, so he joined in with the boat - in his opinion, it is necessary to change his identity and re-enter the society.
"Lin Jun? Lin Jun?! ”
In the cell, Jun Ji Tae's shouts woke up Ling Ming, who was immersed in memories, and he shook his head bitterly, as if he wanted to shake out all those chaotic thoughts.
This Quan Zhitai was the target of Ling Ming's wooing and infiltration when he was still a small flag under Lao Mouzi, and the two were once as good as wearing a pair of pants.
"Quanjun, why are you in this place? Aren't you a thief officer? Ling Ming asked, while motioning to the two Korean prisoners who had been subdued behind him, and opened the prison door.
"Whew! It's hard to put it into words! ”
Seeing that the cell door was about to open, Jun Ji-tae couldn't hold back anymore and burst into tears.
He was one of the victims of the palace upheaval in North Korea five years earlier.
On March 25, 1623, Joseon ministers Yi Gui, Yi Shi, Kim Zi Dian, and others, with the assistance of Queen Inmu and the newly rising Namjin faction, gathered their troops to rendezvous at the villa of Ayayang-kun, the current king of Joseon, Yi Jun. That night, Queen Renmu's subordinates raised a fire in Qingyun Palace, and Li Liang led Li Gui and others to enter Qingyun Palace under the name of fighting the fire, launched a palace coup, tied Li Hui, and escorted him to Queen Renmu to be reprimanded, and then announced the deposition of his throne.
This was followed by a purge of unprecedented proportions in which a large number of Li Hui's cronies were killed or exiled – Jun Ji-tae was one of them.
"So, there are still many relics of the ancestors on Jeju Island?"
Listening to Quan Zhitai's introduction, Ling Ming asked with a deep groan.
"Exactly!" Jun Ji-tae nodded, he was already so weak that he couldn't stand up without the help of those two Korean prisoners, "As far as I know, there are dozens of people in this Jingyi County alone, some are under house arrest, and some have become herdsmen...... I was also a shepherd slave, but I was arrested and put in this prison because I hit the head of the pastor last year. ”
Trembling out of the prison door, Jun Zhitai raised his head and sighed, and said miserably, "Li Liang has no king and no father, but as a minister, he has committed the act of usurping the throne and chasing the king, which is really intolerable...... The ancestor was innocent, and no one remembered the great work of restoration, and now he is still lonely and claustrophobic on Ganghwa Island! ”
Ling Ming knew that what he meant by the restoration of the great merit was Li Hui's leading of the Korean army and people to resist Japan in the Battle of Korea.
"We, the wanderers, all sigh when we talk about this," Jun Ji-tae said with tears in his eyes, "If we can find a floating boat one day, we will sail across the sea to Ganghwa Island, be loyal to the ancestors, and die with the king!" …… I only hate to be on an isolated island, and I have a weak heart! ”
Ling Ming listened to him as he quickly turned his thoughts, and soon, a bold plan gradually took shape in his heart.
"Quanjun, please come with me, I'll take you to see my son-in-law!" After thinking clearly, Ling Ming said to Jun Zhitai.
Before he was released from prison, he stopped and told Quan Zhitai, "Remember, my name is Ling Ming now!" (To be continued.) )
PS: I don't dare to use this timer to release (cry)
