"Zhongde, how can you be so ruthless?!" Zhu Gaochi woke up and said with tears rolling down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Your Majesty! Wang Xian's wolf ambition has already appeared," the ministers said indignantly: "I can't be sad because of him!" ”

"Hey......" Zhu Gaochi sighed bitterly, he was so surprised, he really didn't expect Wang Xian to be so decisive, according to the emperor's understanding of Wang Xian, it shouldn't be like this......

The so-called 'thunder, rain and dew, all are the grace of the king', this is the bastard logic of the authorities, they can wantonly suspect, trample, and abuse their subordinates, and the subordinates must accept it without complaint. It seems that this is the way of the monarch in their hearts. If there is a slight complaint, it is a heart of disobedience, and if you dare to rise up to resist, it is a chaotic minister and a thief, and a great rebellion!

All because, the majesty of imperial power is based on the unconditional obedience of the subordinates, once the subordinates are dissatisfied and resist, the imperial power will become bullshit, and the emperor will become a ****!

The most ridiculous thing is that there are so many subordinates who are also oppressed by the imperial power, not only will they not applaud the rebels, but they can't wait to pick them out and insult, hit, and kill the rebels on behalf of the superiors! It's a good way to prove that they're loyal family dogs, and to trade them for a few delicious bones!

This is the bastard logic of this bastard world......

The ministers rushed to curse and curse Wang Xian and his comrades, but it was useless, Zhangjiakou had been breached, the defense line of Xuanfu had been useless, and Wang Xian's army was under the Yong Pass, and it was less than a hundred miles away from the capital division of the Ming Dynasty!

Seeing that Zhu Gaochi looked deeply shocked, Zhu Zhanji had to stand up, stop the spitting minister, and said to the emperor in a deep voice: "Father, everything is in vain now, the only way to fight to the death with Wang Xian is to pour the strength of the whole country!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Yang Shiqi also seemed to be alive, as if this military report was his life-saving elixir. Lord Shoufu's careful thinking is not enough for outsiders, before, the emperor decided to appease Wang Xian, Yang Shiqi was very worried that he would be thrown out as a sacrifice. Now that Wang Xian is openly pulling the flag and rebelling, there is no room for relaxation between the two sides, and the emperor still has to rely on him to give advice and preside over the Cao Bureau......

"Although Wang Xian seems to be arrogant, he actually has no chance of winning!" Yang Shiqi said in a deafening voice: "Victory must belong to the emperor and the imperial court!" ”

"Oh, is it......" Zhu Gao glanced at Yang Shiqi with a blazing look, and everyone also looked at Lord Shoufu, waiting for his booster!

"First of all, Taizu expelled the Tartars, restored China, and Dingguo already has a Jiazi! The emperor inherits the shadow of his ancestors, benevolence and virtue are unparalleled, and the hearts of the people in the world are all in the court! Wang Xian was deeply favored by the emperor, but he dared to rebel, mad and angry! The hearts of the people are back, and the victory and defeat are clear! ”

"Second, although Wang Xian's army claims to be more than 100,000, it is impossible to resist the imperial court with an iron heart except for his iron core. The armies of Xuanfu or Dawangcheng were forced by his obscenity and had to submit temporarily. Yang Shiqi said excitedly: "Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that his army is a rabble!" As long as there is a slight setback, the betrayal of relatives is in the day! ”

"Moreover, Juyong Pass is impregnable, and an army of 100,000 is enough for Wang Xian to break his blood!" Seeing that everyone was gradually being puffed up, Yang Shiqi became more and more excited: "And according to the report of Chengshan Hou, Xuanfu has not been lost, and Zhu Yong still has thirty or forty thousand troops in hand!" Wang Xian dared to bypass Xuanfu and go straight to Juyong Pass, committing the taboo of underestimating the enemy's rash advance! As long as Datong's army arrives and converges with Zhu Yong to cut off the back road of Wang Xian's army, they will be in a desperate situation where they are trapped by the enemy and unable to advance or retreat, even if they are sleepy, they can be trapped to death! ”

Zhu Zhanji and the ministers couldn't help nodding their heads, and said in their hearts that although this chaos was caused by Yang Shiqi, this old thing does have two brushes!

Yang Shiqi is right, Juyongguan is not Zhangjiakou, it is the last barrier of Beijing. Since the Hongwu period, the imperial court has built fortifications in Juyong Pass. During the Yongle period, it cost a lot of money to rebuild the Great Wall and improve the defense system, and now it is garrisoned by 100,000 troops led by Chengshan Marquis Wang Tong, and there are no loopholes to drill. Wang Xian is a god general, and he must also attack with all his might, and he may not be able to attack.

And Wang Xian did not capture Xuanfu, as long as Datong's army arrived, Wang Xian could be trapped under Juyong Pass immediately, and then the grain and grass would be cut off, and there would be no way out......

Zhu Zhanji also got rid of his frustration and shock, and said with a high spirit: "Erchen asks his father to immediately issue an edict to announce Wang Xian's treason and rebellion, and the whole country will search for Wang Party members!" It is necessary to arrest all the families of the officers and soldiers who followed Wang Xian to make a rebellion, so as to confuse the enemy's heart! At the same time, the capital entered martial law, closed the city gates, and mobilized the army in case of contingency! After a pause, he said: "In addition, order the national army to enter combat readiness and be ready to enter the king of Beijing at any time!" ”

Zhu Gaochi barely cheered up and said slowly: "I said that these things will be taken care of by Shoufu and the crown prince......"

"Yes." Zhu Zhanji and Yang Shiqi bowed down to receive the order, and were about to withdraw and hurry up, but they heard the emperor say softly: "There is one more thing, I want to inform you Aiqing." ”

"Listen to the hadith." Zhu Zhanji hurriedly made a gesture of deafness to the ministers.

The emperor looked at everyone and was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "I have made up my mind, and I am ready to return the capital to Nanjing." After a pause, the emperor continued: "A few days ago, I have sent the scholar Huang Huai to lead the people to the south to Nanjing to prepare for the return of the capital. ”

Although the crown prince and others had long known that the emperor had the intention of returning the capital, Zhu Gaochi brought it up at this juncture, which still caused an uproar.

"Father! Moving the capital is not child's play, and at this time, it will shake the society! Zhu Zhanji hurriedly said loudly.

"It's to return the capital, not to move the capital." Zhu Gaochi frowned and said: "Facts have proved that the first emperor moved the capital to Beijing without consideration, and I returned the old capital is a deliberate move, no doubt!" ”

"Your Majesty, the old ministers have always supported the relocation of the capital." Although the emperor said very resolutely, Yang Shiqi still stubbornly said: "However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, at this time, the relocation of the capital will make the world think that the emperor is afraid of Wang Xian!" ”

Yang Shiqi didn't mention this stubble, but when he mentioned it, Zhu Gaochi said with a cloudy face: "I just listened to you...... Your words will cause this disaster, and you dare to talk nonsense here?! ”

"The minister is guilty...... Yang Shiqi, Zhu Zhanji and others hurriedly knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

"Hey," they are guilty, and Zhu Gaochi can't be sent down now, so he has to sigh faintly and say: "I said a long time ago, Wang Xian can only appease, not forcefully, and now that it is like this, I also have a certain responsibility." After a pause, the emperor said, "Forget it, don't talk about this." Beijing is too close to the border, and the slightest disturbance will make Beijing uneasy, and I have long had the intention of returning the capital...... It is certainly a bit of gossip to bring it up at this time, but it is also much less resistant......"

"......" The ministers stopped talking, and they couldn't pierce the emperor and say, 'You're just scared!'

Seeing that the emperor had made up his mind, Zhu Zhanji said proudly: "Please ask my father and emperor to stay in Beijing and fight to the death with that thief!" ”

"Yes, after I moved the capital, the prince will guard Beijing," Zhu Gaochi agreed: "Shoufu will also stay to assist you......"

"Obey." Of course, Yang Shiqi knew that anyone could go, and he, the culprit, had to stay in the capital.

Although the imperial court tried its best to keep it secret and did not want to cause panic among the common people, the news still spread. In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Xian, in the name of 'punishing traitors and Qing Jun's side', led a large army to break through Zhangjiakou, and the news that the soldiers were approaching Juyong Pass still spread all over the capital!

The city of Beijing exploded, and some people applauded Wang Xian, saying that the court deserved it, but more people fell into panic. At this time, there is no need to discuss who is right and who is wrong, and running for your life is the most important thing!

Juyong Pass is less than a hundred miles away from the capital, and the common people don't care about any 100,000 male soldiers, impregnable, they only know that Wang Xian is invincible, God blocks and kills God, and the flames of war may burn to Beijing at any time!

As if the situation was not chaotic enough, another bombshell news broke out - the people actually heard that the emperor had issued an order to return the capital to Nanjing! At first, the common people didn't believe it, but the more the news spread, the more true, some people said that they had seen many eunuchs mobilizing chariots and horses in the palace; Some people say that the lady in the palace came out a little to her mother's family and asked them to go to Nanjing quickly; Some people say that Jishuitan has been put under martial law by Yulinwei, and all the ships are used for official purposes......

The news has a nose and an eye, and the people can't believe it. Moreover, it is better to believe in what is there than what is not. People began to flee the capital in droves, Xuanwumen, Zhengyangmen, Chongwenmen...... All the city gates were filled with carriages and sedan chairs leaving the city, and the evacuation teams supporting the old and the young on the official roads outside the city stretched for more than ten miles......

Even the emperor is about to flee, who would dare to stay in the capital?!

At the beginning, Zhu Zhanji did not intend to prevent the people from leaving the city, a city of one million people, the daily consumption of food is astronomical, and fewer people in the city can reduce the burden on the imperial court. But a few hours later, he had to quickly order the closure of the nine gates of the capital and not allow anyone to leave the city!

Because he was horrified to find that if he didn't stop it, Beijing City would become an empty city! Panic is contagious, the people of the whole city are pouring out, and even many officers and soldiers have taken off their military uniforms and fled in the ranks of the common people, and I am afraid that even the people defending the city will not be able to find it at that time......

It took a lot of effort for the officers and soldiers of the forbidden army to drive the people back and close the nine gates of the capital. The people who were stopped in the capital cried and scolded: "The emperor is going to run away, what are you stopping us for?!" ”

Zhu Zhanji at the head of the city looked at it, and he was dizzy for a while, what is this? How is it the same as the point of dying the country......

Why? How can that! (To be continued.) )
