"Alas......" Yuan Chonghuan knew that until now, he couldn't help but say it himself, so he could only say helplessly: "It was also the ghost who mistakenly believed the ghost words of King Fu at the beginning, so he led his troops to Beijing to abolish the present long live and establish King Xin as the emperor." The content of what King Fu said was similar to what he said just now, the lower official was half-convinced, and he didn't plan to agree, just when someone impeached the lower official and sold military rations to the Tartars without authorization, the minister thought that he was a powerful person in the court, framed the lower official, and was worried that he would not be able to argue, so he took the risk. Of course, the main driver of the lower officials came to Beijing was because they heard from King Fu that the adults had left Beijing. ”

"According to what you say, you are going to march into Beijing with the intention of establishing King Xin as emperor?" Yue Su said in a deep voice.

"Exactly." Yuan Chonghuan nodded.

"Then do you know about this matter?" Yue Su said again.

"King Fu said that he was the one who believed in the king's order and came to find the lower officials." Yuan Chonghuan replied.

"Then the official asked you again, pretending to be a merchant and destroying the matter of Rizhao Port, but what did you do?" Yue Su asked again. After all, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can do, if it is, the person who commanded it is Yuan Chonghuan, then it is also in the past. Yuan Chonghuan is the commander of Jiliao, his soldiers are strong and strong, and it is not a problem to get a few ships, so it should be easy to make a good cloth and destroy Rizhao.

"This matter is not the work of the lower officials." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"It's really not you?" Yue Su asked coldly.

"It's really not a lower official." Yuan Chonghuan said sincerely.

"That's weird, if you didn't do it, who else could have such a big hand?" Yue Su couldn't help but wonder, but. Yue Su can conclude that this matter is absolutely inseparable from these parties, not you Yuan Chonghuan. Then it may be the King of Blessing or the King of Faith.

"This subordinate really doesn't know, and he doesn't dare to say anything." Yuan Chonghuan said.

"Okay, come with me to the saint."

At that moment, Yue Su stopped talking nonsense, mobilized troops and horses, and escorted Yuan Chonghuan, Zhu Youxiang, as well as a cadre of Liaodong generals and Guanning Iron Cavalry to the city of Beijing.

Arrived at the door of the wide canal, this time. Everyone knelt on the ground and bowed to the emperor. The will has already been drafted, to remove Yuan Chonghuan from the post of Jiliao Governor, and immediately enter the prison. Wait for the fall. Ling Hong Chengchou temporarily acted as the governor of Jiliao, led the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and returned to Liaodong. No one will be held accountable.

The will was announced, and the Liaodong soldiers would be long live Shanhu, and then Hong Chengchou went out of the city and led the Guanning Iron Cavalry. Leave immediately and return to Shanhaiguan. Yuan Chonghuan and King Fu. He was taken into the capital.

After all, King Fu is the prince of the clan, and it is inconvenient for Yue Su to try it in person. And this guy is full of nonsense, which makes it very bad for people to listen to it, so he handed it over to Dongchang for trial. As for Yuan Chonghuan, he was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department.

Yuan Chonghuan's confession has been tried, since it is to support King Xin as the emperor, it must be inseparable from King Xin, and the court has a will to order Dongchang to go to Dengzhou to release King Xinwang Zhu Youzhen.

Hauge's yellow flag has arrived at Laiyuan Fort. When he saw that the gates of the city had not yet been closed, and that there were crowds of people everywhere, he rejoiced in his heart, and commanded his warriors to dismount and rush forward. The camp is full of traps, at least it must not work, the infantry rushed in, although slowly, but after all, it was safe, and looking at the city gate blocked like that, it is estimated that the infantry arrived, and the city gate could not be closed.

When the merchants outside the city saw the arrival of the Tartar soldiers, they desperately rushed to the city, and the Tartar soldiers in the city knew that this was a golden opportunity, as long as they held on for a while, the reinforcements would be able to enter the city. So, one by one, they were extremely brave and fought desperately.

Tong Zhou had already led the soldiers and horses to arrive, although he brought many soldiers and horses, but after all, it was too far away from the city gate, and he could not use his strength, so he could only fight on the periphery and kill all the Tartars who mixed in. They were busy killing the Tartars in the city, the enemy was outnumbered, the strength was very different, how the Tartars resisted, it didn't take a little more effort, and the Tartar soldiers who came in to seize the door were basically killed. Tong Tulai, Tian Gang and other traitors all died in this battle.

However, their sacrifice ushered in time for the Tartar soldiers outside the city, and Hauge's soldiers finally rushed to the outside of the city and began to slash and kill the merchants outside the city, so as to force the merchants to rush desperately into the city gate. Tong Xuan and Li Haoquan couldn't care about this much, and urged the soldiers to also slash and kill the merchants who poured in.

The bloody slaughter, the merchants caught in the middle, became victims. The Tartars will not have pity for them, and although the officers and soldiers sympathize, they have nothing to do. Tong Xuan and they knew that if these merchants came in, the Tartars would rush in, and the merchants who rushed in would disrupt their formation, and the Tartars would take advantage of the situation, how could they still resist. If the Tartars are released into the city, then it will not only be these merchants who will die, the entire Laiyuan Fort will be slaughtered, and the Tartars will even continue to fight into the Central Plains, and there will be more and more dead.

The battle under the city was fierce, and of course the soldiers in the city could not be idle, with bows and arrows, and kept shooting at the city. The Tartars came on light horses, and they didn't bring any siege equipment, and of course, there were traps everywhere outside the city, and there were siege equipment, and they couldn't move to this side. At most, it is to raise the shield and resist it.

Come to Yuanbao as a border pass, of course, there are cannons in the city, at this moment, the cannons have also been launched, the artillery fire is continuous, only the Tartar is crying dad and shouting mother. The road outside was difficult, and the Tartars rushed to this side, which was already slow, and the shells smashed over, which further slowed down the Tartars' attack.

As a cavalry who has grown up on horseback for a long time, there is no difference between fighting on horseback and missing legs, even if it is a Tartar soldier who has rushed to the city gate, when fighting to the death with the Ming army, there is not much advantage. However, there were many Ming soldiers, who went forward one after another, leaving many corpses behind by the Tartars.

Hauge, who was commanding on the opposite side, saw clearly, and he clearly understood at the moment that if he lost this opportunity, he would never have a chance again. If your own warriors don't ride horses, they can't fight at all, and they can't attack the city at all, and if they fight like this for a while, the soldiers who have poured into the city gate hole can be beaten out, as long as the city gate is closed, this mission. It's a failure.

This time, I can't afford to lose, my father's main force will arrive in three hours, if only when my father's army arrives. The city gate has been recaptured by the Ming army, and what face do I have to go to see my father.

Finally, Hauge gave a brutal order.

"You don't have to dismount, just rush me in like this!"

"Ah......" Hearing this, the Tartar soldiers couldn't believe their ears. There are pitfalls in front, and there are some pits, which have been exposed because of the bombardment of shells. Clearly put it in his eyes, just ride a horse and rush, and he can't all fall into the pit.

"Didn't you hear my orders? Rush me! Even if it's filled with corpses, fill it in for me! Hauge shouted.

This time. The soldiers all understood what he meant, according to the situation in front of them, if they still dismounted and rushed forward slowly, then the final outcome would definitely be failure, and the people who went up would definitely be defeated. It's also death, maybe there's only one way to rush into the city.

There are still a lot of warriors in the Tartars, and they are very strong. The execution of commands is high. Now that the prince has given the order, there is no need to say anything else. Tartar soldiers in front. Gritted his teeth and rushed straight forward. Next. "Plop" and "plop", the sound of people falling into the trap is resounding. People shouted and neighed, and screams abounded.

However, the Tartars also had a heart, and did not scatter the charge, but only charged along one route, and the men and horses behind stepped on the people and horses they met, going forward one after another.

As soon as the soldiers defending the city saw the Tartars like this, they immediately guessed the other party's intentions, and the guerrilla generals who commanded them hurriedly shouted loudly into the city: "General Tong, the Tartars are now playing with their lives, hurry up and close the city gates, otherwise it will be too late!" ”

Of course, Tong Zhou wanted to close the city gate, but the city gate cave was full of people, although it was estimated that two-thirds of them were his own people, but the Tartar soldiers who were there would rather die than retreat. Tong Xuan was anxious, but he couldn't think of a way, and at this juncture, on the street behind him, a shout sounded.

"Reinforcements from the Governor's Palace have arrived, everyone let go!"

The voice was very loud, as if it was shouted from the mouths of hundreds of people, and the soldiers under Tong Zhou looked back, only to look, and couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly dodged to the side, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Disperse quickly!" ”

The officers and men could clearly see that at this moment, a big car was rushing towards this side, and this big car, with an iron spear piercing out of the front of the car, was burning with a fierce fire on the body, and the fire was raging, and it was impossible to see the scene behind it. The cart came quickly towards this side, and the officers and soldiers were so frightened that they dodged to both sides, and Tong Zhou and Li Haoquan were also startled, thinking that they were Tartars' undercover agents in the city.

Fortunately, behind the car, a voice continued to sound, "Get out of the way, get out of the way, we are the Governor Wu Sinan's protector, and our wife is also here!" ”

Hearing this, Tong Zhou and the others were also half-convinced, but the big car covered in fire was so terrifying that the soldiers had to flash aside. Everyone dodged almost at the same time, letting the city gate open, and even the soldiers in the city gate cave saw this scene, and they also withdrew one after another, or dodged to both sides.

The fire cart finally pushed over, although there were many corpses on the ground, but the cart still ran over the corpses, and the figure behind the cart had already been seen, more than 20 people were pushing the cart, and there were more than 100 people behind the cart.

In the team of more than 100 people, two people took the lead in running out, one of them was a weak scholar, and next to the scholar was a young man in servant clothes.

"General Tong! This is the Governor's Palace's decree, please take a look! The young servant was Wu Sinan's personal entourage, Wu An, who took the token and rushed towards the official army.

When the children in the team heard the shouting, they hurriedly rushed out to greet them, and when they saw the order, they knew it. Besides, the big cart, under the rapid push of everyone, rushed into the city gate cave with a roar, and the city gate hole was mixed with enemies and me, and his own people could only flash to the side when they saw it, and they couldn't hide in time, and they died immediately. The Tartars on the other side are the same, even more miserable. Before the chariot of fire, all of them were iron spears, and when they were pierced by iron spears, they would die immediately. When they were hit by the wall of the car, their clothes immediately caught fire, and the burning people rolled all over the ground.

The cart was invincible, directly pushed out of the city gate, this kung fu, Haoge's soldiers and horses, has filled the trench, and the people behind are pouring over. The man pushing the cart was not in a hurry, and when he lifted the cart, all the fiery red charcoal inside was sprinkled, making it impossible to get close. These men retreated into the city and closed the gates.

"Bang!"

When the Tartar came to the door, the horse stomped on the coals and neighed in pain, and ran wildly, no matter how good the Tartar was at riding. They were all taken off.

The gates were finally closed, and the soldiers of the city were cheering, but they knew. This is only the beginning of the great war. Tong Zhou immediately commanded the soldiers, looking for bricks and tiles, to seal the city gate, the soldiers in the city, even more kept firing bows and arrows, the Tartars outside the city, it was lifeless to escape, and the city gate was closed. It was already doomed that they would never have any more chances.

Hauge looked at the closed gates, angry and ruined, and howled. In just a while, thousands of warriors were lost, but in the end, nothing was gained.

"Lord Wang, the matter has come to this. We have no choice but to camp first and wait for reinforcements from the Great Khan. Sony, who was on the side, was about to go crazy when he saw Hauge. Only careful advice.

"Set up camp...... Camp...... We didn't bring anything to camp in, I thought we could stay in Laiyuan Fort tonight. I didn't expect ...... This is how I go to see my father......"

"Mr. Jiang, take a look first."

Beijing. Inside the study of Yuesu's mansion. Yue Su handed an official letter to Jiang Jie.

Jiang Jie took it, returned to his position, sat and watched, and after he finished reading, Yue Su said: "Sir, this is the confession of King Fu, which was just sent by Dongchang, and the confession said that King Fu went to see King Xin and asked him to rebel together, but King Xin has always refused, and King Fu did everything himself." However, the looting of the sunshine, King Fu said that he didn't know anything, what do you think. ”

"The subordinates thought that the confession of the East Factory should not be false. The Queen Mother will not cover up such things, how dare Cao Huachun be perfunctory, these confessions must have come from his strict trial. Jiang Jie said.

"Sir's opinion is the same as Su Xiang's. But in this way, the case is a little strange, the matter of Rizhao, obviously, is to lead me out of Beijing, according to the current situation, it must be the Fu King and they are undoubted. But now that King Fu didn't do it, who would have done it? Yue Su said with some confusion.

"Adults have tried countless cases, but why did they ignore an important detail." Jiang Jie said with a smile.

"What details?" Yue Su asked.

"It's the king of faith. According to this confession, when King Fu went to find King Xin, it was already a month now, and King Fu left the fiefdom without permission and had the heart of rebellion, and these King Xin should have known about it. However, after such a long time, King Fu has reversed, but during this period, why didn't King Xin report King Fu on the fold? Jiang Jie said with a smile.

"What the gentleman said is true." Being so little by Jiang Jie, Yue Su suddenly realized and said: "If this rebellion is successful, then the last person to benefit is King Xin." He doesn't participate on the surface, but in fact it's just an illusion, and from the bottom of my heart, I believe he wants to be the emperor. He deliberately put King Fu on the table, not supporting it on the surface, but behind the scenes, he will definitely play some tricks, and King Fu is just his pawn. If he really didn't have the intention of rebellion, he should have been in the book and became the first blessed king, and there would have been no later incidents. When I was interrogating Yuan Chonghuan, I heard him say that he did not dare to rebel at that time, because he was impeached for selling military rations without authorization, thinking that someone in the court was deliberately framing, and I heard King Fu say that Rizhao was robbed and I left Beijing, so he made up his mind and took a risk. From this point of view, the instigation of the imperial history to impeach Yuan Chonghuan and the robbery of Rizhao were all because someone wanted to lead Yuan Chonghuan to the side of King Fu. If it weren't for King Fu's doing, he would definitely be another person who benefited the most. ”

"That's how it should be." Jiang Jie nodded and said.

"Now that Dongchang has sent someone to raise King Xin, it is estimated that he will be able to return to the capital in a day or two, and when King Fu comes, everything will fall into place. As for Wang Changwei, who impeached Yuan Chonghuan, this official might as well invite him to sit in the Criminal Department now. ”

Yue Su has always been resolute in doing things, basically, he just does what he says. He left his house and went to the Criminal Department, and then asked the Imperial History King to come to the hall for questioning.

The speech official of this year, that is not an ordinary force, he dares to say anything, and he dares to admit what he has said, and he is not afraid of offending people at all. The same is true of this Wang Yushi, when he saw Lord Yue, he was just, and he was just polite according to the usual practice, and he did not grovel at all because he was a small official.

Yue Su asked him why he impeached Yuan Chonghuan, and Wang Changwei's answer was also very direct, and when he was drinking tea in the teahouse, one of them claimed to be a relative of a general in Liaodong, saying that he often saw grain being pulled outside the Guan, and nine times out of ten it was sold to Tartars. So, I stepped forward to talk. I learned that this was probably true, so I went to impeach.

After saying this, Yue Su was really temperless, and the Ming Dynasty had this system. The speaker is not guilty, he hears the wind and does something, he participates in it, and if he is wrong, he can't do anything to others. Having said that, it's not wrong that Wang Chang is afraid of ginseng, when Yuan Chonghuan was in the Criminal Department, he confessed that he sold military rations to the Mongols without authorization.

Even if the person who bought the grain is wrong. But you, Yuan Chonghuan, are not wronged at all, and Wang Changwei is even more conscientious and has done nothing wrong. If you want to interrogate Wang Changwei, it is even more impossible. No matter how big your Yue Su official is, you can't be unreasonable, so you can only talk a few words and let others go back.

A day later, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, was escorted to Beijing by Dongchang. Such cases. Naturally, it will not be tried by the Criminal Department, and the current Zongren Mansion has long been taken over by the Ministry of Rites, so. It can only be reviewed by the East Factory.

Cao Huachun has already received Zhang Yan's instructions - strict trial.

Everyone knows that if Zhang Yan is not the queen mother. Her son is not the emperor, and Zhang Yan will definitely be a virtuous sister-in-law. But now it's different. Her son is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but anyone who wants to threaten her son's throne must not be tolerated.

Cao Huachun understood what Zhang Yan meant, even if Zhu Youzhen was the prince, he would not save any face. However, in the process of being interrogated, Zhu Youzhen showed calmness, regarding King Fu's intention to rebel, he not only said that he knew, but also said that when he learned that King Fu intended to rebel, he sent Wang Chengen to Beijing to play the son of tomorrow, as for why Wang Chengen did not send the performance, he really did not know.

This excuse is not bad, but Cao Huachun is not an old fool, he is very shrewd, you said that Wang Chengen has been sent to Beijing to present a fold, then the court can arrest Wang Chengen and confront him. However, you have to make one thing clear, King Fu left the fiefdom without permission and incited you to rebel, why didn't you take him down at that time, or told the Dengzhou Mansion to take him down. What do you have in mind when you do this?

Zhu Youzhen's answer was that he did not take down King Fu at that time, all because he was unbearable for the sake of the same sect, and hoped that King Fu would know his way back. But later, King Fu left, and he was worried that King Fu would make trouble, and he was sorry for today, so he sent Wang Chengen to Beijing to do something.

He washed himself quite cleanly, but he also understood that no matter what he said, he didn't want to do it as a prince, because you didn't know about it, and said that he sent Wang Chengen, but where is Wang Chengen? No matter how you explain it, if you don't take King Fu down on the spot, that's your sin, it's certain to cut the domain, the difference is just whether you can save your life.

If the person on trial is someone else, Dongchang will definitely be punished, but the person now is the prince, which is called how Cao Huachun started. can only take the confession that has been tried now and go to Zhang Yan to confess.

Zhang Yan also understands Cao Huachun's difficulties, considering that Zhu Youzhen is her husband's younger brother, she has to be forgiving and forgiving, abolishing your throne and leaving you with your life, which is worthy of the first emperor. This is a royal family affair, and there is no need for foreign ministers to take care of it, and of course there is no need to greet the cabinet, so it is directly decreed to remove Zhu Youzhen from the throne and demote him to a commoner, and it will be over. As for the blessed king Zhu Youxiang and Yuan Chonghuan, then it can be participated, Zhu Youxiang died, leaving the whole corpse, Yuan Chonghuan Ling Chi, and the whole door was beheaded.

The order was issued, and the courtiers had nothing to say, but Lord Yue stopped doing it, and immediately opposed it. The content is very simple, the case in Rizhao has not yet been tried, how many lives have been killed, how can it be ambiguous. Zhu Youzhen is a major suspect, and he must not be easily connived at, at least he must understand whether Rizhao's case has anything to do with him.

Zhang Yan didn't want to kill Zhu Youzhen, but her sister-in-law killed her brother-in-law, which was really not good, and she was sorry for his brother. But what Yue Su said is also reasonable, and Lord Yue is the pillar of the imperial court, this time it was easy to quell the rebellion, all up to Lord Yue, and it was really not good not to give this face. However, now that the will has been made, you have no jokes, just let your Lord Yue refute it, where is the dignity of the royal family.

So, Zhang Yan called all the backbones in the inner palace, Liu Mingguo, Cao Huachun, and Zhao Zhi, and asked them to help get an idea and see what to do.

At a critical time, these three all wanted to go to the royal family, but they also didn't want to offend Yue Su head-on. Regarding Zhu Youzhen's case, they can see that the Queen Mother means that she doesn't want Yue Su to take care of it, and it is good to follow along. However, they are also afraid of offending Yue Su because of this, Liu Mingguo and Cao Huachun both have something to do with Yue Su, who dares to talk nonsense, who will not be able to keep the words to Yue Su's ears, the last time they competed for a seat in the parliament, it was a matter of royal interests, and Yue Su would not do anything, but this time, it was obviously different. Rizhao Port is the hard work of Lord Yue, let people be ruined like this, and there is no one to find, how can you not be blushing, if you really stop it, you may not be able to stop it, and if you don't do it in the future, you have to put yourself in.

The three of them thought about it for a long time, and came up with such a statement, and if they could want a piece, it can be seen that these three are all fox-level characters. What is their method? Very simple. Zhu Youzhen is now a commoner, and if he is involved in any case, the criminal department can take someone on its own and interrogate a commoner, do you still need to ask the emperor for an order?

Zhang Yan heard this, and when she thought about it, she pushed the boat down the river, whether it was good or bad, you Yue Su would carry it, and any truth would never fall on my head. Good guy, Zhang Yan didn't kill Zhu Youzhen just for his own reputation, if someone wants to help him get rid of the troubles, he doesn't have to make his own order, of course it's best.

At the moment, the celebrant rejected Yue Su's performance, Zhu Zhu's criticism is simpler, Zhu Youzhen is just a commoner, Lord Yue wants to interrogate a common people, do you need to ask the emperor for advice. If the prisoners in the world are arraigned, everyone must ask for a decree, then the emperor must not die of exhaustion. (To be continued......)
