Zhang Huangyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, took the general eunuchs to the Marquis of Dingnan.

As soon as I entered the house, I was startled by the scene in the house, the courtyard was full of corpses, the door of the front hall was open, and the lights were bright inside, and I saw a person sitting in the middle of the front hall, it was Wang Lanping, who was holding a steel gun and was murderous.

Zhang Huangyan walked through the corpses and ran in.

"Master Hou, this, what's going on in the house" Zhang Huangyan looked around in the hall, and saw a person lying on the couch on the side, he hurriedly leaned over to take a look, it turned out to be Miss Yanling, looking at her like this, I don't know whether she is dead or alive.

Zhang Huangyan said again, "Could it be that someone wants to assassinate you?" ”

Wang Lanping's eyes were still staring at the door motionlessly, "You came just in time, I can't leave, you go to the Soldiers and Horses Division for me to report the case and see who wants to be unfavorable to me"

Zhang Huangyan hurriedly looked at Wang Lanping's body, "You, are you injured?" ”

"I'm fine, it's just a flesh wound, what are you doing here at night?"

"Something is wrong, your former subordinates have mutinied, they have surrounded the gates of Nanjing, and they are going to threaten to break the city within an hour, the emperor wants to ask you to come forward to appease"

Wang Lan smiled indifferently, "I don't think the things in my house are messy enough?" Let the emperor invite another meritocracy, I can't do anything, they are no longer my soldiers, and they won't listen to my words."

Zhang Huangyan said hurriedly, "Master Hou, why bother, who doesn't know that you are their general, they only obey you, and no one can clean up this mess if you don't come forward, in order to prevent the situation from expanding, you will be reluctant to help the emperor, the affairs of the house." Leave it to me, and as soon as it dawns, I will order the soldiers and horses to withdraw the investigation."

"Don't go!"

"You. Master Hou, the overall situation is important. If the rebels enter the city, who knows what they will do, if the emperor is unexpected, it will be a big mess."

"Don't go!"

No matter how hard Zhang Huangyan was, Wang Lanping just didn't go, he couldn't, he had to return to the palace quickly.

met Zhu Yousong and explained the reason.

Zhu Yousong was shocked in his heart, but he understood it very well. Beckoned to let Han Zanzhou, the celebrant come over, "Spread the decree, appoint Nanhou Wang Lanping as the former military governor of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion, and control the guards of Gyeonggi, Zhang Huangyan, you go with Han Gonggong to pass the decree, he is probably waiting for this"

Zhang Huangyan went and returned, passed on the emperor's holy decree, and said. "Master Hou, the emperor has returned the military power to you, you should leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late"

Wang Lanping remained motionless. "Don't go, this decree, the minister doesn't dare to accept it"

Unable. Zhang Huangyan had to return to the palace again, and at this time, Nama Shiying also returned to the palace from Dong'anmen. As soon as the two entered the palace, they heard the sound of killing in Xicheng. This is Song Dali's start to attack the city, and it is expected that the hundreds of gatekeepers will not be able to defend it for long.

A group of Beijing officials also gathered outside the Forbidden City, and those ministers who had experienced the destruction of Beijing were even more frightened, and they didn't know where the soldiers were attacking Nanjing.

Zhang and Ma saw Zhu Yousong, and the monarch and ministers had no countermeasures.

Zhu Yousong was frightened too much, and his heart gradually quieted down, people are going to be too frightened, there is nothing to be afraid of, reason is gradually restored, Wang Lanping does not give the official, which makes Zhu Yousong see more clearly, tonight's mutiny must have been planned by Wang Lanping, the scene of the forced palace that day shrouded again, this time it was more fierce and urgent, Wang Lanping was determined to control the palace again, this is a rebellion.

Zhu Yousong has all his thoughts, he can't do anything, either compromise or be compromised, the result is the same, once the rebels enter the Forbidden City, the only hope of the Ming Dynasty is gone, the palace will be looted, the prince and concubine will suffer a great disaster, I am afraid that this great tomorrow who has been on the throne for less than a year will also die in the hands of the rebels.

"Ma Shoufu, Zhang Shangshu, Han Gonggong, proposed order, Wang Lanping entered the Jue Dingguo Gong, awarded the Governor of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion, led the world's soldiers and horses, and ordered him to go quickly to pacify the rebellious army"

Ma Shiying hurriedly stopped, "Your Majesty, no, Wang Lanping is a wolf, if all the military power is handed over to him, the society will be in danger."

Ma Shiying understands that if Wang Lanping gains power again, the first person to die will be the Ma father and son.

Zhu Yousong sighed, "Then do you have a way to withdraw from the army?" ”

"This, Rong Chen think again, think again"

Suddenly, a eunuch hurriedly ran over, looking panicked and said, "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the stone city gate has been broken by the rebels, and thousands of rebels have entered the city and are coming towards the palace."

"Ah, so fast," Ma Shiying was shocked.

Zhu Yousong's face was like ashes, and he waved his hand, "Go to the edict, you can't think of a countermeasure."

**

Dingnan Hou Mansion, the first assistant of the cabinet, the chief eunuch of the celebrant and the chief eunuch of the military department, these three appeared together, and this kind of regulation will only appear when the marquis worships the general.

Han Zan Zhou Zhanjuan preached:

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and he said: Dingnan Marquis Wang Lanping, loyal and virtuous, Jin Dingguogong, time, the mountains and rivers are difficult, loyalty is difficult to find, Dingguo Gong Yangzhou is defeated full of thieves, the sun and the moon are famous, I worship Qing as the governor of the five armies, internal and external chaos, Zhongxing Daming, Qin this"

Han Zanzhou held up the holy decree to Wang Lanping, who was still sitting there, and said with a smile, "Grandpa Guo, you can accept the decree."

Wang Lanping smiled coldly, took the holy decree and threw it on the table behind him, turned around to pick up Fang Ling, who was still unconscious, and wanted to go out, stopping when he passed by Ma Shiying, Ma Shiying didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Grandpa Guo, you, where are you going, the rebels have entered the city, you should find a way" Zhang Huangyan hurriedly chased out.

Wang Lanping personally got into the carriage and drove Fang Ling towards the west gate.

Song Xian and Song Dali followed the army into the city.

"General" Song Dali saw Wang Lanping coming in a car from a distance.

And all the generals gathered around them.

The "general" everyone clasped their fists together.

Zheng Sen still didn't understand why this matter was so big, and when he saw Wang Lanping, he said, "Master Hou, you can persuade them quickly, this soldier can't be recovered when it's messy, something big is going to happen."

Wang Lanping ignored him, looked around at everyone, and saw that several main generals had arrived.

Song Xian pointed to the blood bag on the horse's belly behind him, and nodded to Wang Lanping, Wang Lanping's head was tilted, and Song Xian immediately understood, and ran to Dongcheng with a hundred and ten people.

"More than 7,000 people have entered the city," Song Dali whispered in Wang Lanping's ear.

Wang Lanping turned around and hugged Fang Ling from the car. "Vigorously, the generals and medical officers have been found. Save her"

Then, Wang Lanping jumped into the carriage again. Yell:

"The generals listened to the order, and the emperor ordered me Wang Lanping to be the governor of the five armies, and the prince of the country was promoted, and I passed on the general order, Wang Yongji and the other four people plotted not to be tricky, for the sake of the emperor's safety, the Forbidden City was taken over by the champion army and the whole city was blocked"

When the crowd heard this, they cheered. has finally come out, and with Wang Zhuangyuan, they will have a good life.

At this time, Zheng Sen, Fang Guoan and others finally understood that this was a mutiny that Wang Lanping had planned for a long time, and he was just wrapped up in a daze, and it was difficult to ride a tiger, so he could only go all the way to the dark.

The champion army marched quickly, and within half an hour, the whole city was under control, Ma Shiying's father and son were also detained in the palace, and the imperial city was full of champion troops inside and outside.

By this time it was dawn. The people of the whole city didn't know what happened last night, and they inquired around to find out that the champion army had entered the city. Everyone is not surprised, the emperor treats the champion army so badly, and it will be a matter of time before they mutiny. The crowd was happy to see the excitement.

Outside the Dong'an Gate, Song Xian threw the four heads from the city. He shouted to the soldiers below, "Wang Yongji and the other four are plotting to rebel. Now ambushed, the champion army was ordered to protect the imperial city, Wang Lanping has been promoted to the governor of the five armies, ordered you to immediately abandon the weapon, the governor of the capital of you do not know the reason, used by traitors, as long as you put down your weapons and return to the camp, the governor of the capital will not be blamed in the past, if you help the abuse again, the court will regard you as a thief, a troublemaker, raze the three tribes"

As soon as everyone outside the city saw those bloody heads, their souls were scattered, and they didn't know whether the matter was true or false, the commander was dead, and the dragons had no leader, if they really became thieves, then there was no chance to surrender.

For a while, several commanders who were still sober walked in from the army, dismounted and knelt down, "The last general does not know about Wang Yongji, please ask the court to investigate"

"All back to camp! Without the order of the Metropolitan Governor, not a single soldier is allowed to leave the Xiangshan camp" Song Xian pointed to the direction of the Xiangshan camp.

"Yes!"

The governor's office of the five armies gathers the military power of the world and can mobilize all the troops and horses, of course, the premise is that the main general of these armies is not there.

The majestic Forbidden City is bathed in the early morning sun, and everything is calm again.

'Knock knock ......'

The bell rings in the palace, which is the signal of the early dynasty of the ministers.

Zhu Yousong doesn't have any thoughts, since he ascended the throne, he hasn't done a thing, no day can control the overall situation, anyway, the left and right are dead, it's better to live a few more days, everything goes naturally, what should come will always come, he doesn't have any ability to resist, his holy decree can also control his relatives and internal servants, but these two people are useless to the court, let alone help him.

Thinking of all this, Zhu Yousong seemed to be driven to the Fengtian Hall by the soldiers with peace of mind, and there was not a single palace maid and eunuch by his side, so he sat quietly, waiting for the worship of the hundred officials.

Hundreds of officials gathered at the palace gate, and when they saw these soldiers in this palace, everyone understood that this was Wang Lanping's soldiers, and the scene not long ago was back, and that 'Cao Cao' was back.

At today's court meeting, officials above the third grade in Beijing must be present, and at the gate at noon, there are more than 300 people.

Zhang Huangyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, said that his heart was like a mirror, and he saw it very thoroughly, he was pulled up by Wang Lanping in this way that day, and today he doesn't know how many black gauze hats are going to land, although he is grateful to Wang Lanping for his support, but he is also afraid that Wang Lanping will do something big, he can't usurp power and seize the throne, let alone kill the king and rebel, this is the bottom limit, the Son of Heaven is always the Son of Heaven, and the courtiers still have to abide by the way of the courtiers.

Qian Xiaole, the secretary of the ministry, was also among the early dynasties, but he was entangled by Zhu Zhikui, the prefect of Yingtian, at the moment.

Zhu Zhikui heard early in the morning that the army of the champion army had entered the city, the mountains and rivers had changed, Wang Lanping had been promoted to the title of Duke of Dingguo, and he was appointed as the governor of the five armies.

At that moment, Zhu Zhikui hurriedly found Qian Xiaole, wanting to go back to the case of the accidental murder outside the Chaotian Palace, saying that he would retry it, but Qian Xiaole was in a hurry to go to the morning court and had no time to pay attention to him, Zhu Zhikui was so anxious that he knelt and pulled there, stalemate, and it was too late to disperse the court, so angry that Qian Xiaole kicked him over outside the noon gate, Zhu Zhikui was remorseful, and he knelt on the ground with a frown, and the six gods had no owner.

In the main hall, hundreds of civil and military officials arrived one after another, and as soon as they entered the hall, they saw ten armored warriors standing beside the emperor.

Zhu Yousong was on the dragon chair, it was really like a needle felt, he never felt that the dragon chair under his ass was comfortable, and his helpless eyes scanned the ministers in the hall, as if he wanted to jump out of this group of ministers to accuse Wang Lanping of this kind of crime, but he swept around, and the hall was still lifeless.

Zhu Yousong calmed down, "Has Ma Shiying, the first assistant of the cabinet, ever come?" ”

The hall was silent.

"What about Ma Shiying? Is Ma Shiying here? "The only savior that Zhu Yousong can think of at this moment is Ma Shiying, hatred is also in Ma, love is also in Ma, anger is also in Ma, why did you Ma Shiying put me Zhu Yousong on the throne in the first place, why let me suffer this humiliation today.

Zhu Yousong sighed for a moment, waved his sleeves and said, "Zhongqing has something to do early, and there is nothing to retreat."

As soon as Zhu Yousong's words came out, he heard the spears in the hands of the ironclad soldiers around the hall suddenly vibrate on the board.

'Knock'

This voice penetrated the depths of the hearts of Zhu Yousong and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and they wanted to disperse the dynasty, but it was early, and the main lord Wang Lanping had not yet appeared.

On the streets of Nanjing, there are groups of soldiers of the fully armed Champion Army patrolling along the streets, and the Dingnan Hou Mansion is also protected by the soldiers of the Champion Army.

Fang Ling's knife wound was in the left abdomen, piercing the ribs, fortunately it did not hurt the organs, this is really a blessing in misfortune, but excessive blood loss and fright transition, it is rare how to clean up the residual blood in her abdomen, fortunately, among the military medical officers of the champion army, there are many Western missionaries, they followed the champion army south when the city of Yangzhou was broken, but they did not expect to save Fang Ling's life here.

Fang Ling will not die, it will be a blessing.

Fang Ling was temporarily placed on the first floor of the middle courtyard of the Dingnan Hou Mansion, with ten medical officers guarding outside the house, and several palace maids who had just been transferred from the palace were busy cleaning the blood stains left by the rescue.

Fang Ling was lying quietly on the bed, her face finally had a trace of blood, but it was still frighteningly white, the amount of blood loss caused by the wound was too large, and it was already rare to survive.

On the edge of the bed, there was a lot of gauze wrapped around the left and right sides of his body, and there were at least ten wounds on his body, but fortunately, they were all flesh wounds, and they could be healed in a few days with some gold medicine.

Wang Lanping took Fang Ling's hand and watched quietly, he felt that he really owed Fang Ling too much, if he hadn't bought her into the mansion, how could she have such a disaster.

Fang Ling's hands were still so delicate and white, and they looked so weak and powerless in Wang Lanping's hands.

"Report, Master Hou, oh no, Dingguo Gong" Song Xian dressed in military uniform and walked into the house.

Wang Lanping waved his hand and motioned to all the palace maids, "You all go down" (to be continued.) )
