10 The decision of a small group of people: the truth
After all kinds of complicated bargaining or coercion and inducement, the leaders of the various armies held a meeting in the imperial palace in West Chang'an. This meeting was held in the Qixia Palace, except for the Ming Emperor Zhu Zhaoding and his henchmen, the rest of the people were all gone, just like the Ming Dynasty meeting.
The meeting was fairly egalitarian, with people sitting at a round conference table β but on the north side of the table sat Park Qinghong and Yang Mingyang.
People looked at them with strange expressions.
In fact, there is no real equality in the world, and even if it is a round table, people can distinguish what kind of dignity and inferiority can be distinguished. - It occurred to me that people should meet in the North Pole, because then everyone at the round table is in the South, and there is no "inferiority" at all. When the Confucian guys say that "respect and humility are eternal and inevitable order", I should give this example......
When I was thinking about these meaningless things, Yang Mingyang cleared his throat, and the hall was quiet.
Yang Mingyang said: "Everyone has also heard that the Holy Land is not satisfied with Zhu Zhaoding's title of emperor. On the day he became emperor, the heavens sent a damnation and killed him......"
Someone said, "Fart! You beheaded the emperor three days ago! My men saw it with their own eyes! β
A few government soldiers standing next to him said, "Nonsense! It's the crown prince who cuts! If you don't believe me, pull out the corpse for you to see......"
Many people said: "I can't imagine that Lord Yang is such a person!" We still want to push you to be the prime minister! You are rebelling! β
Park Qinghong was furious: "You don't want to live anymore, someone is ......"
Dozens of Liaodong troops armed with submachine guns came over.
Yang Mingyang pressed the back of Pu Qinghong's hand and said, "Don't fight and kill." Morality is on our side, what are we afraid of? β
He said to Zhao Yuyang and Zhang Qiangsheng: "Tell me, what's going on?" β
Zhao Yuyang, head of the household department, raised his hand and attracted people's attention. "I can testify," he said. After Zhu Zhaoding ascended the throne in East Chang'an, he prepared to go to West Chang'an to receive the canonization of the Holy Maiden. I took the first step and arrived at the West Chang'an Palace. Yes, right now. The holy woman said to me that Zhu Zhaoding was evil and unworthy of being the emperor. A year ago, he wanted to be the emperor, but he was vetoed by the Holy Land, but this time he actually went against the sky! The saint became angry, and in her hand, she slashed the emperor to death at onceβand at the same time killed a million people. β
People were looking at him.
Zhao Yuyang sighed and said, "Providence! Providence cannot be violated! β
People whispered and showed disdain.
Someone said, "You're a fool to us!" β
Someone said, "How many emperors have you betrayed?" What credibility do you have? β
People say, "It's better to believe in you than to believe in dogs!" β
Zhao Yuyang was furious and was about to attack, when Zhang Qiangsheng, the director of the Royal Secret Service next to him, pressed the back of Zhao Yuyang's hand and winked at him.
Zhang Qiangsheng stood up and said to everyone: "This is true, I can testify." I am Zhu Zhaoding's hand, you should believe what I say, right? On that day, after Zhu Zhaoding ascended the throne in East Chang'an, he prepared to go to West Chang'an to receive the canonization of the Holy Maiden. He took the first step, and our inner court stayed in the East Chang'an Palace to wait for him. He was halfway through when the saint became angry, and in her hand she slashed the emperor to death at onceβand at the same time a million people. β
Someone said: "You are in East Chang'an, how did you see the Holy Maiden of West Chang'an killing the emperor?" β
Zhang Qiangsheng's face sank and said, "Because, the secret department has received information. They saw with their own eyes that 100,000 pro-soldiers of the forbidden army and hundreds of thousands of onlookers were dead, and Zhu Zhaoding and Qian Xin'an were dead. Zhu Hongding and Qian Liangong still want to continue to go against the sky, they are secretive and planning an ulterior conspiracy. β
Someone asked, "What conspiracy?" β
Zhang Qiangsheng: "I said it was an 'ulterior conspiracy', and you still asked." What to ask. You admit that you are not human, and I will tell you what the conspiracy is. β
A few people shouted, "! If you want to rebel, just admit it, what are you doing under the guise of a saint? β
Someone else said: "The day before yesterday, I also received a secret order from the emperor to ask scholars and imperial officials from all over the country to enter the king of Jingqin!" β
Yang Mingyang touched his chin and said, "I don't believe it." β
Several people took out the emperor's secret order. There is the seal of the jade seal of the country, the autograph of the emperor, the secret code of the secret department, the intelligence department, the military talisman, and the military crest of the imperial army - everything is the same as the real thing.
Yang Mingyang: "Do you mean that I killed the emperor a few days ago?" β
A lot of people said, "Isn't it? β
Many people pointed to Yang Mingyang, Pu Qinghong, Zhao Yuyang, and Zhang Qiangsheng and said: "You group of traitors! β
Yang Mingyang: "If I can prove that the emperor died more than 20 days ago, will it be able to prove that Zhu Hongding and Qian Xinan lied?" Explain that they pretend to be the emperor's order? β
They all said, "The emperor died three days ago!" You killed me! β
Yang Mingyang: "I'll ask you, if I can prove that the emperor died more than 20 days ago, can I prove that Zhu Hongding and Qian Xin'an lied?" β
They said, "Proof it!" See how you prove it! β
Yang Mingyang snapped his fingers and said to the soldiers in the distance: "Bring Zhu Zhaoding up!" β
When he said this, everyone was frightened, and several people jumped out of their chairs directly!
In the big iron gate in the distance, eight guards carried a transparent crystal coffin out, and inside it was Zhu Zhaoding, the first emperor of the Eastern Ming Dynasty!
People stood up and looked at him around the coffin.
It's indeed Zhu Zhaoding inside - it's just a rotten and swollen Zhu Zhaoding! At a glance, you can see that this is Zhu Zhaoding; At a glance, it can be seen that this body has not just died, nor has it been dead for a few days, nor has it been dead for ten days, but at least ten or twenty days.
Yang Mingyang said: "Open the coffin lid. β
The lid of the coffin was opened, and a pungent stench came, and several people vomited on the spot!
Yang Mingyang frowned and said, "You are all people with heads and faces, and you see Zhu Zhaoding every day. Go and see, take a closer look, and see from beginning to end, is this dead man he? β
People covered their noses and looked at the bodies inside the coffins.
Let's go and find out, what does a corpse look like that has been dead for 20 days?
Maggots****, **** meat *****, **worms**. *Teeth***, ******* intestinal ********, ***qi*. **Eyes***, ***Nose*, ***Ears**, ***Anus**. Hands**, feet*, ****** tubes****. Bone*, ***meat**. ,**hole**,****hair*********,*****hair***; Liquid******; **Clothing***. **Water**, **** *****. **Moth*,**Fly****! **Shell**!
Those people had seen enough, vomited enough, and everyone frowned with serious expressions. Obviously, people knew in their hearts that the emperor had died twenty days earlier.
Yang Mingyang said: "Now everyone admits it, right? The Holy Land killed Zhu Zhaoding, because he was against the sky! After Zhu Zhaoding's death, Zhu Hongding and Qian Liangong pretended to pass on the holy decree and continued to disobey the mandate of heaven, resulting in the misery of Gyeonggi! β
People continue to frown and think.
Yang Mingyang looked at everyone with a serious expression.
Someone said: "I thought you killed three days ago, but it turned out that you killed the emperor twenty days ago!" β
Someone said, "You guys have been colluding a long time ago!" β
Someone said: "Kill the emperor and dare to push on the holy land!" β
Someone said: "The emperor knew that you were going to rebel long before he died, so he left a holy decree." β
Someone said, "Traitor! β
β¦β¦
Yang Mingyang's face flushed.
Pu Qinghong was furious and slammed the table: "You bastards, shameless!" Come! β
Hundreds of Liaodong troops surrounded it!
Those imperial officials, magistrates, and scholars also came with a lot of people, and with a wave of their hands, hundreds of people also came up!
The entire Qixia Hall is tense!
Outside the Qixia Palace, more scholars and troops were watching.
