Chapter 638: Silent Counterattack

The rhythm of footsteps hit everyone's hearts. At this moment, such a hurried footstep, it obviously means that something is happening.

The civil officials are not all bold Erlenzi, most of them are still afraid of death, every time the dynasty ends, the general trend is gone, the most fierce resistance is the civil officials, the fastest surrender is also the civil officials, the civil officials will always have two extremes, this has nothing to do with the group, only related to the personal character, in order to describe the civil officials and scholars this fear of death and not afraid of death of the contradictory urine, a certain literati made a poem, "the time is poor."

The person who wrote this poem is also a civil official, his surname is Wen, his name is Tianxiang, a national hero, his integrity and backbone are worthy of a thousand years, but there is a small flaw in his character, after being caught by the Mongols, he keeps crying bitterness, keeps shouting pain, and likes to express this pain in the form of poetry, such as "Panic beachhead said panic, zero Ding Yang sighed zero Ding." ”

If you change this verse to a crooked interpretation, that is, if you are not poor, you will not see the festival at all.

For example, at this moment in the Liang Mansion, after the civil officials listened to the hurried footsteps coming from the corridor outside, many people suddenly felt panicked and scared.

The emperor won a big victory in person, and on the day of returning to Beijing, the courtiers did not go out of the city to pick up the car, this matter can be big or small, depending on the emperor's mood, if the emperor is angry, he has to kill people to vent his anger, and a large number of civil officials here today will die if they say the least, even if the emperor has benevolence and does not want to kill, but there is a Qin Kan by his side, this guy seems to be polite, but in fact he is a demon king who kills people without blinking. When it was time to move the knife, he was not ambiguous, as long as the emperor lightly issued a will of "strict investigation", Qin Kan might be able to implicate tens of thousands of people and make the second "Hu Lan case" and "empty seal case" of the Ming Dynasty.

When everyone was worried, the hurried footsteps finally stopped outside the threshold of the front hall, and everyone stared at it, but it was the housekeeper of the Liang Mansion.

"Master, ladies and gentlemen, the emperor's holy car has arrived outside the Anding Gate, and he is lined up outside the city gate with 20,000 soldiers of the Beijing camp. But he didn't move. Even the emperor's chariot was parked motionless in the snow, and only the eunuchs in the palace and a cadre of noble generals were greeted out of the city......" the butler gasped.

Everyone's eyebrows jumped a few times, and Liang Chu said in a deep voice: "Except for standing still outside the city gate, there is no other indication for Your Majesty?" ”

His Majesty did not say anything. But Ding Shun, the first confidant of Qin Kan, the Duke of Ningguo, led a team of brocade guards into the city. Nowhere to be found. ”

Three scholars inside. Liang Chu was the most displeased with Qin Kan, and stomped his foot heavily when he heard the words: "Qin Kan must have a bad idea again!" Why didn't God take this evil animal! ”

Li Dongyang's face was expressionless, but the smile in his eyes became more and more profound.

Yang Tinghe was stunned. His face was a little stunned. Because of Zhu Chenhao's rebellion, Yang Tinghe owed Qin Kan a favor, looking at today's situation, it seems that Qin Kan is ready to do it, and Yang Tinghe can't sit down anymore.

"What about Jinyiwei entering the city? Does Qin Kan dare to kill our civil officials? There are thousands of civil officials in the Ming Dynasty, how many can he Qin Kan kill? Kill us all, who will rule this country for His Majesty? Don't be surprised, this is just the factory guard scaring us, let's read the sage books hard, raise a heroic and righteous spirit, don't you be afraid of a little jumping clown! ”

The Ministry of Industry gave Hu Bo's words in the matter suddenly seemed to give a shot of strength to the uneasy civil officials, and the front hall of the commotion immediately quieted down, among which many ministers who wanted to go out of the city to meet Hu Bo were blocked by Hu Bo's words, and they were embarrassed to leave if they wanted to go, including Yang Tinghe, many people glared at Hu Bo stupidly.

Just as everyone was quiet, there was another sound of hurried footsteps under the cloister.

A subordinate of the Liang Mansion hurriedly appeared outside the front hall, panting and said, "Master, my lords, the people of Beijing...... The people ......"

Yang Tinghe was anxious: "What's wrong with the people?" ”

"Nearly 10,000 people went out of the city to greet the holy car!"

Everyone was shocked, stood up suddenly, and exclaimed in unison: "How is this possible! ”

"The villain didn't dare to conceal it, and there were indeed nearly 10,000 people who went to Andingmen together."

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, and their faces were extremely ugly.

The people are the tools in the mouths of civil officials, the weapons of attacking the enemy, and the arguments for forcibly tying together the words of the sages.

Now that nearly 10,000 people have gone to Andingmen to greet the holy driver, is the reason why the civil officials are so-called "working the people and wasting money" still stand? This is tantamount to a slap in the face of civil officials.

Tens of thousands of people have left the city, but none of the civil officials, known as the important weapons of the country, have disappeared, this scene falls in the eyes of the people outside the city, is it the face of the emperor or the face of the entire civil official group?

The faces of the civil officials in the hall became more and more ugly, and everyone knew very well that there was the weight of these 10,000 people outside the Anding Gate, and their plan to make the emperor ugly was completely frustrated.

Yang Tinghe stood up, looked around at the ministers with a gloomy face, and trembled with anger: "Okay, you guys are good, enough nonsense, right?" Now I want to ask you, at this moment, how do we end up? ”

In the face of the reprimand of the cabinet scholars, everyone was awe-struck, but Hu Bo was not afraid, and looked at Yang Tinghe coldly and said: "The people are the people, the officials are the officials, the people are foolish, and the officials are the weapons of the state, and they cannot follow." ”

Yang Tinghe was furious: "Hu Bo, the world is black and white, is it up to you to decide?" Hundreds of officials advance and retreat, are you in charge? Who do you think you are? ”

Hu Bo didn't have time to answer, but he heard hurried footsteps from the corridor outside.

"Master, my lords, it's not good, there are people around outside the house!"

Everyone was shocked, and even Li Dongyang couldn't help but change color.

Hu Bo sneered: "What a despicable traitor, are you going to kill us?" ”

Liang Chu hurriedly walked to the door, grabbed the placket of his subordinates' clothes and asked, "Who is surrounding my Liang Mansion?" Is it Jinyiwei or the fan of the East and West Factory? ”

"Not ......"

"Five Cities Terracotta Division? Twelve regimental battalions? Or the four guards of the Imperial Horse Supervisor? ”

"Neither...... Sir, surround our house. Yes, it's ......" The subordinate carefully glanced at Liang Chu, whose face was distorted, and said in a low voice: "It's a group of old shrews in the streets and alleys, and I don't know who is instructing them, and they are blocking the house outside the house and pointing at our gate and scolding the street......"

The subordinate's head hung lower, and he didn't dare to look at his master's face at all, so he said honestly: "They scolded...... scolded the adults of the DPRK and China for being vegetarian, selfish, skinless and faceless, and the emperor charged forward regardless of life and death. The adults were in Beijing to pull the emperor's back. The king is not the king of the dead country, but the minister is the minister of the dead country......"

The last sentence was really vicious, and an old man in his seventies in the hall suddenly rolled his eyes and fell to the ground holding his heart.

The faces of the people turned from red to white. Liang Chu stood outside the hall for a long time. Suddenly roared: "Qin Kan." You wicked beast will not die well! ”

Everyone's eyes stared in one direction at the same time for no reason, but it was the left capital Yushi Du Hong, who was sitting in the hall and didn't recruit anyone and didn't provoke anyone.

Feeling the countless unkind eyes around him, Du Hong was not calm. stroked his beard and was silent for a long time, and finally was forced to look up to the sky and sigh: "The family is unfortunately ......"

*******************************************************************

Outside Andingmen, the snow is still falling. In the snow, the 20,000 soldiers of the Beijing battalion were covered with white snow, but they were nailed to the spot like nails and did not move.

The emperor's guard of honor and chariots were still parked in the snow.

Inside the chariot, Zhu Houzhao and Qin Kan put their hands together in front of the charcoal basin to roast the fire, and Zhu Houzhao sighed as he looked at the red charcoal fire.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the matter will be resolved soon, and the minister guarantees that Your Majesty will enter the city with beautiful scenery."

Zhu Houzhao sighed heavily: "I'm very worried......"

"This kind of thing happens, no one wants it to happen."

"Qin Kan, why did you say that there were such a bunch of old things in my court? Haven't I been tortured enough by them all these years? ”

"The most important thing is to be happy......

"These old things are alive, how can I be happy? I'm sure that because of them, my yang life has been discounted for at least twenty years! ”

"Are you hungry? The minister asked someone to cook a bowl of noodles for you to eat......"

Zhu Houzhao's cheeks twitched, and he turned his head to glare at Qin Kan: "Why are the words that come out of your mouth so weird?" You say that let the scenery of the wind enter the city, how do you call it scenery? ”

Qin Kan smiled and said, "Is the cheers of the crowd considered scenery?" ”

"What about the civil servants?"

"With the cheers of the crowd, the civil officials will naturally kneel in front of the chariot under His Majesty and cheer."

The two of them talked without saying a word, and suddenly heard the general outside the chariot say excitedly: "Your Majesty, hundreds of people suddenly poured out of the Anding Gate, and they all knelt quietly on both sides of the official road after leaving the city gate......

Zhu Houzhao took a moment, then glanced at Qin Kan in surprise, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the chariot jade curtain.

As far as the eye could see, Zhu Houzhao gasped, dozens of feet away from his chariot, there were countless people in different clothes kneeling in the dark, seeing Zhu Houzhao wearing a dragon robe out of the chariot, and the people who were quietly kneeling on both sides of the official road suddenly broke out into earth-shattering cheers.

"Congratulations to the emperor for his victory and return to Beijing! The king wins! My Emperor is mighty! ”

The cheers that resounded in the sky echoed endlessly in the snowy sky for a long time, Zhu Houzhao looked at the people who bowed to him in front of him, as if he was stunned, I don't know how long it took, Zhu Houzhao finally came back to his senses, and his first reaction was to turn around and look at Qin Kan, his eyes were full of incredible amazement.

"You...... How? ”

Qin Kan sighed: "In order to fight for His Majesty's breath, the minister tried his best, racked his brains, and finally ......"

"What happened at last?"

"Finally, it cost more than five hundred taels of silver to get this done."
