Everyone knows that the key to the victory or defeat of this battle is actually two points, one is to seize Tongzhou City, and the other is that Liu Sheng took 120,000 troops, outside Juyong Pass, and dragged the most elite 200,000 troops of the imperial court for them, which led to their victory. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Wang Xian looked at the generals and asked softly, "Counting it, five days ago, their grain and grass should have run out. Are you going to sacrifice them? ”

All the generals bowed their heads, even if they didn't care about Liu Sheng's life or death. As long as the more than 200,000 elite border troops are liberated, they can enter the customs immediately, plus the Qinwang troops from all over the country who have come one after another, they must still be the ones who lose......

In fact, except for a few people such as Wu Wei and Mo Wen, they can understand Wang Xian's hard work. The rest of the generals all seem to understand, but since the coach has made such a decision, they can only accept it unconditionally.

Without further ado, Wang Xian asked Wu Wei and Yang Pu to return to the capital on the same day, and proposed to Emperor Hongxi the conditions for the dismissal of the army. The first is to immediately withdraw the army of Xuanda and hand over the Xuanfu to Wang Xian for temporary management. The second is to crown Wang Xian as the king of Zhennan, and take the south of the Qinling Mountains, Liangguang and Annan as his feudal state. All domestic affairs shall not be interfered with by the imperial court. Third, Shandong maintains the status quo, and officials are still appointed by Wang Xian. Fourth, the Loop maintains the status quo, and all unfavorable actions to the Loop are regarded as tearing up the contract. Fifth, all officials who are willing to follow Wang Xian must not be stopped by the imperial court.

Wang Xian originally thought that there would definitely be a tug-of-war, except for the immediate withdrawal of the Xuanda army without discussion, he did not intend to force the imperial court to agree immediately. However, in the afternoon of the next day, the emperor asked Yang Pu and Wu Wei to return to Tongzhou, telling Wang Xian that as long as he promised one thing, the court could agree to all his conditions.

Moreover, Yang Pu told Wang Xian that in order to show the sincerity of the imperial court, the emperor had ordered the withdrawal of Xuanda's army, abolished Zhu Zhanji's position as crown prince, and released his sister and brother-in-law back.

As for the emperor's condition, Wang Xian could not be allowed not to agree, because the emperor only required him to swear loyalty to the court for generations and never betray him.

If you don't agree, doesn't it make it clear that you want to rebel?

After sending someone to confirm that the Xuanda army had withdrawn and Liu Sheng and others were safe, Wang Xian happily agreed to sign the contract. After Yang Pu returned to the capital to restore his life, he brought back the emperor's will. Zhu Gaochi said that in order to make the covenant more binding, a monument should be erected to engrave the covenant so that future generations will never violate it. He will personally hold a ceremony for Wang Xian to canonize the king of Zhennan.

The generals were worried about Wang Xian's safety and did not agree to let him enter Beijing. Yang Pu told Wang Xian that the emperor said that in order to reassure you, it is okay to hold a ceremony outside Tongzhou City.

Now no one has any reason to object, and the two sides agreed that five days later, a canonization ceremony will be held outside Tongzhou City, when the emperor will be there in person.

In the capital, when he learned that Wang Xian agreed to the peace talks, the courtiers and the people all breathed a long sigh of relief.

In the palace, Empress Zhang, Zhu Zhanjun and Huang Huai and other ministers all knelt in front of the dragon bed, crying and begging the emperor not to risk leaving the city.

"Your body is like this, you can't afford any tossing!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, there is no need for the royal driver to come in person, it is no problem to let His Royal Highness King Zheng canonize for you!"

"Yes, father, let the sons go......" Zhu Zhanji was captured and deposed, and Zhu Zhanjun, the king of Zheng, became the first heir to the throne, and he should consciously take responsibility.

"He can't do it, I have to see Wang Xian in person to settle all the grievances." The emperor had already made up his mind and asked everyone to retreat, leaving only King Zheng and said: "My life is not long, if I die one day, you will succeed to the throne." ”

"The sons are shallow and weak, and they are not worthy of the big responsibility. I also asked my father to plan for the country, and select another talent from his younger brothers to take on this important responsibility! Zhu Zhanjun cried when he heard this, if in the past, the emperor said that he would pass the throne to him, he would have to be happy to dance, but the current mess really discouraged him.

"You are indeed not successful, but you are better than your younger brothers...... Zhu Gaochi did not allow him to refuse, and said slowly: "In the future, I will rely on the clan a lot, and I will always protect the Zhu family." ”

Zhu Zhanjun saw that he couldn't refuse, so he had to fall on the ground and cry bitterly.

In the blink of an eye, on the day of the alliance, the emperor arrived in Tongzhou under the escort of the 5,000-feather forest army.

Wang Xian personally led the civil and military forces out of the city for ten miles to greet them, and the soldiers on both sides were tense, and they were all extremely nervous. However, when the old eunuch Zhang Cheng supported the sick emperor and appeared in front of Wang Xian, the scene suddenly eased down.

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and they could not hide their excitement...... After all, they used to be so of one heart and one mind, and they went through so many hardships and dangers together, how could they not have feelings?

"Your Majesty!" Wang Xian was about to worship, how could Zhu Gaochi let him kneel, and quickly let people support him, and said with tears in his eyes: "I can't stand you!" Zhongde ......"

"Don't mention the past...... Wang Xian also said with a sad expression: "Weichen also made mistakes, but he didn't obey the decree at the beginning, but he didn't want to give up his previous achievements, and he never betrayed the emperor!" ”

"I know, I know, it is because I am bewitched by the people around me that I will cut off my femur and suffer myself......" Zhu Gaochi took Wang Xian's hand, looked at Wang Xian, who was still heroic, and sighed: "I know that no matter how you seal you, I can't dispel the doubts in your heart, so I came in person." ”

"Weichen believes in the emperor and will keep his promise." Wang Xian said word by word.

After saying what should be said, the two of them joined hands on the high platform, and the canonization ceremony officially began. Then the emperor and the king of Zhennan erected a monument together as an oath, swearing to the sky that they would never break the contract, and they would always be kings and ministers for the rest of their lives.

At the end of the ceremony, the emperor was already very tired, but he still fought hard and said to Wang Xian: "You also know my body, and on the day you set off to the country, I can no longer send each other. ”

Zhang Cheng brought over a dragon pattern silver tray with a silver wine jug and two gold cups on it.

Looking at the silver pot and gold cup, Wang Xian's pupils shrank, and he heard the emperor smile and say, "I'll give you food here." ”

As he spoke, the emperor raised his hand with difficulty, held the wine jug, and wanted to pour wine into the cup, but he couldn't even complete such a simple action, and the wine in the jug spilled on the tray. Seeing that the tray was shiny and the wine was clear, the worried guards behind Wang Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Xian hurriedly took the flask and poured wine into two cups for the emperor.

Zhu Gaochi smiled bitterly: "Hey, there is a waster." ”

"The emperor is in full bloom in spring and autumn, and he will recover after a while of recuperation." Wang Xian said, picked up a wine glass, and offered it to the emperor.

The emperor took it with relief, and Wang Xian also raised his glass.

The emperor raised his glass to Wang Xian, saluted him for a moment, raised his hand, and drank the wine in the cup first. Then he gave the bottom of the cup to Wang Xian and looked at him with a smile.

Wang Xian took a deep breath, also picked up the wine glass, and drank it all.

Seeing that Wang Xian had drunk the wine, the emperor laughed loudly, but the laughter was not pleasant, but with a trace of sadness and pain.

Wang Xian's brows furrowed slightly, but when he saw that the emperor's face changed, he lowered his head and coughed suddenly!

"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon's body......" Wang Xian was about to persuade, but saw that the emperor raised his head and was staring at him with a resentful face, with a trace of black blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.

I saw the emperor trembling and stretching out his hand, the halberd pointed at Wang Xian, used all his strength, and roared: "You, bold Wang Xian, dare to poison the wine and murder the monarch's father, the people of the world...... Everybody can be punished! ”

As soon as the words fell, a puddle of blood spurted out of the emperor's mouth, splashed directly on Wang Xian's new robe, and fell straight into Zhang Cheng's arms, blood kept gushing out of his mouth and nose, but he still refused to close his eyes and stared at Wang Xian.

"Come on, come on, Wang Xian poisoned the emperor to death!" In Zhang Cheng's frightened screams, there was chaos in the arena. Guards on both sides pounced.

In the middle of the Ouchi guards, a phantom suddenly rushed out, and stabbed at Wang Xian like lightning with a sword! This is a skill that can only be achieved by the best masters!

Hearing a cold snort, one of Wang Xian's side drew his sword to meet him, and he blocked the assassin stubbornly!

"Xianyun!"

"Hu Hao!"

"Lord Wang, we've been tricked!" Seeing that the Daoist of Xianyun was blocking Hu Hao, several guards hurriedly escorted Wang Xian: "Let's leave quickly!" ”

Wang Xian was about to speak, when suddenly his blood surged, and with a wow, he spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Hongxi closed his eyes......

The guards hurriedly carried Wang Xian out of the high platform. Erhei and the others were on guard outside the field, and when they heard the chaos inside, they hurriedly led the army to rush in. happened to see the scene of Wang Xian vomiting blood and falling to the ground, and all the soldiers went crazy when they boarded! Slaughter all the princes and ministers who came with the emperor, and surround those Yulin troops, and kill all of them without leaving one!

On the high platform, Hu Hao saw that things were not good and wanted to escape, but he was stabbed in the ribs by Xianyun's sword, and he couldn't lift his breath when he landed, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Xianyun broke Hu Hao's tendons and tendons, and let the soldiers tie him up.

Hu Qi stared at Xianyun in disbelief, when he was fighting before, Xianyun was clearly not his opponent, but the last sword showed his skills as a top master to the fullest!

"Soldiers don't get tired of deceit." Xianyun coldly dropped a sentence and walked away.

Knowing that the emperor was killed, the ministers in the capital were in chaos, but they saw Zhu Zhanjun appear on the Golden Palace accompanied by the Empress Dowager Zhang.

Empress Dowager Zhang personally read out the holy decree of Emperor Daxing, and it turned out that the emperor had already appointed Zhu Zhanjun as the crown prince before leaving Beijing, and ceded the throne to him.

Zhu Zhanjun cried bitterly: "My father had expected that the thief might be poisoned, but for the sake of the common people, he went out of the city to meet him without hesitation. The thief really went crazy and killed his father in public! I swear to the heavens that I will not take revenge and swear that I will not be a man! ”

Thinking of the benefits of the first emperor, the ministers also hugged their heads and cried, and tearfully said that they wanted to stand against Wang Xian and must avenge the first emperor! (To be continued.) )
