"Report! 陛xià, Incheon Urgent. A large number of Chinese fleets appeared on the surface of the Incheon Sea, and it seemed that there was an intention to launch an attack on Incheon! At the end of the meeting, a North Korean official rushed into the main hall and shouted to the king of Joseon. China wants to make a move against North Korea, which is a big deal for North Koreans! You don't have to think about it to know that if there is a war between the two sides, North Korea is definitely not China's opponent.

"What? The Chinese called? How could it be so fast? The king of North Korea, Li Yan, couldn't help but cry out. Although he had been king for ten years, he was only an eighteen-year-old young man after all. As the king of Korea, Li Yan of course knew the strength of China, and once fantasized about how great it would be if Korea could be as strong as the Chinese Empire! Judging from Lee's original intentions, he certainly hoped that North Korea would become strong. It's just that all the affairs of North Korea are now maintained by brothers Zhao Wanyong and Zhao Yinyong, and he, the king, is just a decoration.

The two brothers, Zhao Wanyong, the regent, and Zhao Yinyong, the leader of the government, also changed their faces greatly. The other ministers in the court were also in an uproar. Previously, they were still deliberating whether Korea should continue to rely on the Manchus or abandon the Manchus and join the Chinese Empire. Zhao Wanyong and Zhao Yinyong were powerful brothers, and they were bent on defecting to the Manchus, so that others had no way to defect to the Chinese Empire. But now, the Chinese Empire is actually calling, which is beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone knows that this is for the Kingdom of Korea. It will be a huge crisis.

"Why are the Chinese attacking us? Are they nameless? Zhao Wanyong said angrily. However, his current appearance is more like annoyance and anger. Facing the mighty Chinese Empire. North Korea is simply too weak.

"Lord Regent, now that the Chinese* army has called, what should we do? It is better for us to change our previous strategy, abandon the Manchus, and join the Chinese Empire. In this way, at least we will be able to survive the current crisis. Zuo Yizheng Kim Huandou took the opportunity to say. Originally, he was a pro-China person in the Korean court. Merely. Zhao Wanyong's brother is powerful, and he has no way to compete. But now, the arrival of the Chinese * army. But it gave him a chance.

"Yes, yes! Let's take refuge in China! No matter how you look at it, China is stronger than the Manchus! If you follow the Manchus, I'm afraid there won't be a good result! ”

"The Chinese have just destroyed Japan. I heard that they killed rivers of blood in Japan. If we don't surrender. Japan is a lesson in the past! "The ministers who had been neutral have also changed their views. In the case of a large army pressing, they naturally know what to choose. Although the Zhao Wanyong brothers are powerful, they are nothing compared to China.

"Regent, why don't we take refuge in China?" The king of Joseon, Yi Yeong, also spoke. Obviously, the little king was also frightened.

The regent Zhao Wanyong's face was cloudy. He had a close relationship with the Manchus, and he was able to have the status he has today. It was also all supported by the Manchus. If North Korea falls to China, it will certainly not be used. When the time comes, those pro-China North Korean ministers will definitely take the opportunity to turn over. This is not a good thing for Zhao Wanyong. After all, over the years, although he has controlled the government of North Korea, he has offended many people. Once they lose power, won't those enemies take the opportunity to fall into the ground?

"No! It is not possible to take refuge in the Chinese Empire. We are a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, how can we immediately betray because of the persecution of the Chinese Empire? In that case, what kind of integrity do we have in North Korea? Zhao Wanyong gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, the Lord Regent is right, the saints have taught us that we are not to be perfidicious. Moreover, we don't know what the Chinese are doing in Incheon this time. Perhaps, they are just passing by and will not come to attack us! Zhao Yinyong, the leader of the council, also said.

Suddenly, the officials of the Zhao family opened their mouths to refute those officials who had defected to China. They are all people tied to the same boat, and everyone is prosperous and loses. If Zhao Wanyong and Zhao Yinyong lose power, they will not end well. As a result, they can only unite as much as possible to confront pro-Chinese officials. At the same time, they also secretly prayed in their hearts that this time the Chinese* army would only pass through Inchon and would not attack Incheon. In that case, they may still have a chance.

Once again, a quarrel broke out in the court. Originally, the officials who were suppressed by the two brothers Zhao Wanyong and Zhao Yinyong, because of the arrival of the Chinese fleet, seemed to have found a backer all of a sudden, and began to fight on the basis of reason.

As if he were a bystander, the king of Joseon, Yi Yeong, sat on the throne and watched the two ministers quarrel. How he hopes that he can make a statement, and then on such a major matter, he can make a final decision. However, this is just his delusion after all.

The arguments between the two sides were inconclusive, and the time of the court meeting was also postponed again and again until the afternoon.

Kim Seung-woo, the guard of Incheon County, hurried all the way and saw Seoul, and happened to meet this court meeting. As a result, Kim Seung-woo was summoned by the king of Joseon, Yi Yeong, and went to the court to inform the king and ministers of the latest situation.

"Your Majesty, the Chinese* army has landed at Incheon. Their generals gave us an ultimatum that we had to make a choice within three days and that we must surrender to China. Otherwise, they will launch an attack on Seoul and destroy Korea! Kim Seung-woo said.

"What? Are the Chinese really going to do something to us? What can I do? "Many ministers panicked, including those who supported Zhao Wanyong and Zhao Yinyong's brothers. After all, if the Chinese really call Seoul, then they must not follow the bad luck!

"Your Majesty, we can't hesitate any longer, it's time to make up our minds. If you delay any longer, it will be too late. Left Yizheng Kim Huandou persuaded him. In his opinion, this time the struggle is about to be won.

"Regent, what do you see?" North Korea's Li Yan asked. Although, if it were up to him to decide, Li Yan would be eager to take refuge in China. After all, only by being on the side of the victors will the DPRK have nothing to lose. Now it seems that the Manchus were no match for the Chinese Empire at all. There is no need for North Korea to follow the Manchus to accompany the funeral.

Zhao Wanyong was also a little embarrassed at this time, he did not expect that the Chinese would really do something to North Korea. What the consequences would be, of course he knew. If it continues to take refuge in the Manchus, North Korea will have only one dead end. However, if they take refuge in China, the future North Korea will not have a foothold for their Cho family.

"Humph! You guys, don't you dare to betray our Qing Dynasty? Aren't you afraid that my heavenly soldiers of the Qing Dynasty will destroy you directly? At this time, an arrogant voice sounded in the main hall. In between, an official with a pig's tail behind his head and wearing a Manchu official mansion walked into the hall with a cold face.

This person is the Manchu envoy to Korea, the Fulongzhu of Zhengsanpin, and the person of the Yellow Banner of Manchuria. Korea was a vassal state of the Manchus, and although it was a state of non-conquest by the Manchus, the Manchus still sent envoys to control the movements of Korea. Fulongzhu's status in North Korea is also transcendent. This time, when he heard that the Koreans wanted to betray the Manchus, he immediately broke into the palace hall.

Suddenly, the ministers in the Korean court were speechless. The Chinese Empire was a behemoth in their eyes. However, the Manchu Qing Dynasty also did not dare to offend North Korea. Moreover, the methods of the Manchu Qing were even more cruel.

"Your Excellency the Special Envoy, rest assured, I, North Korea, have no second thoughts about the Qing Dynasty!" Zhao Wanyong hurriedly said. At this moment, he had already made a decision, that is, to continue to hold Manqing's thighs. Even if Korea was finally destroyed by the Chinese Empire, he would still be able to escape to the Manchus. If he turned his back on the Manchus and went to China, then there was really no place for him.

"Hmm!" Fu Longzhu nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Don't worry, now I, the Qing Dynasty, have signed a peace treaty with China." As a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, Korea is naturally under the protection of the peace treaty. As long as the Chinese* military is unwilling to break the treaty, they will not do anything to North Korea. I'll go and see the Chinese generals. ”

"Your Excellency Ambassador Xie!" When Zhao Wanyong heard Fu Longzhu say this, he immediately stopped worrying. The officials of the Zhao family also laughed, as if the crisis had passed. And the leftist politician Kim Huandou and those ministers who supported defection to China looked a little unnatural.

"Kim Seung-woo, let me ask you, how did the Chinese land in Incheon? Why did you abandon Incheon at this time and flee back to Seoul? You have betrayed the trust of Your Majesty! Zhao Wanyong rebuked in a fierce voice. Obviously, what happened today had an impact on his prestige, and he needed to find a way to restore it. And Kim Seung-woo, the guard of Incheon County, is the best chicken that can be killed and deter those monkeys.

"I, I'm coming back to report the situation in Incheon to His Majesty!" Jin Shengyu hurriedly said, he also realized the danger.

"Humph! You are simply quibbling, as the county guard appointed by His Majesty, you don't want to serve the king's orders, but abandon the city and flee, you are simply greedy and afraid of death. Come on, put Jin Shengyu in prison for me, and deal with it after listening! Zhao Wanyong said.

Several wolf-like palace guards rushed in and dragged Jin Shengyu outside the main hall.

"Your Majesty, the minister is wronged! The minister is wronged! Kim Seung-woo shouted loudly, but it didn't work.

The king of Joseon, Li Yan, had a gloomy face, but after all, he didn't say a word, as if he hadn't heard Kim Seung-woo's cry. (To be continued......)
