"Huhu" Emperor Yuan Shun seemed to be tired of scolding, sat back on the dragon chair and gasped, after all, his body had been overindulged for many years, and now he had been scolding for so long, which made him very tired, he drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, leaned his back on the dragon chair, and looked at the important ministers who pretended to be ostriches below, and his heart was extremely cold:

"These people are no longer the eagles who once soared in the sky, since their ancestors laid down this great river and mountain, no one wants to continue to live in the impoverished grassland in the north.

Although this is also the acquiescence of the emperors of the past dynasties, in order to prevent the emergence of people who can seize the country, they will turn a blind eye. However, this has also led to the fact that no one is very useful in this situation. ”

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Yuan Shun did not have a solution, the rebel army was like a bamboo, among which the famous ones were Chang Yuchun, Xu Dakai, Zhu Yuanzhang and others, all of whom were attacking the city and pulling out the village, and the brave lords, the generals on their side were corrupted by glory and wealth without a little blood, this year, it can be said that they fled from the wind and did not dare to resist to the death, which will fuel the arrogance of the rebel army today.

"So, I can only rely on myself! When the city is broken, anyone can surrender, and they will never be able to live. For the sake of his own life and glory and wealth, Emperor Yuan Shun was unwilling to sit still like this, thinking of this, his eyes looked at the courtiers below even more ruthlessly, "Since this is the case, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

"King Ruyang!"

"Oh" and "It's over" King Ruyang's heart jumped when he heard the emperor call his name.

The rebel army is winning one after another, and the king of Ruyang, the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, is inseparable, and he can't say it now, don't look at his official prestige, but the gold content is insufficient.

The steppe people of the Yuan Dynasty decided that they were assigned by tribes, and the orders he sent out, the people of other factions did not say that they refused, but they also violated the yang and the yin, and no one wanted to lose their own men and horses and give others the opportunity to eat, which doomed them to have no possibility of victory.

This time, he installed an ostrich underneath and prayed that he would not become the first chicken to be killed and take it to the monkey. Unfortunately, when he was wandering outside the world, the emperor's shouts were like the whispers of death, making his hairs stand on end, and cold sweat flowed.

"Your Majesty, what do you command" Although he was terrified in his heart, King Ruyang had to step forward and reply.

Emperor Yuan Shun looked at the king of Ruyang who bowed his head and saluted below, his eyes were a little complicated, this person was loyal, but unfortunately it was wrong to lose the battle, this is irrelevant: "You are the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, but the rebels are growing everywhere in my Dayuan, and you have lost the battle every time, can you be guilty?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, but this is also because the rebels are too powerful, and when rebellions broke out everywhere a year ago, their marching formations, as well as weapons and artillery, are much stronger than before, and the quality of our soldiers and muskets and artillery are not at all comparable to their standards, which makes us suffer a big loss, and please Your Majesty to be clear." King Ruyang knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but he still told the truth in his mouth.

"What are you afraid of when the weapon is strong, when our ancestors rode war horses and pulled curved bows, didn't they destroy the Great Song Dynasty with muskets and cannons? Why can't you do it when you get here? "Emperor Yuan Shun didn't care about those, and directly buttoned up with a big hat.

"I ......" heard the emperor's nonsense, the king of Ruyang also wanted to scold, the ghost knows what kind of goods the current Yuan Dynasty is, the children of the nobles eat, drink, prostitute and gamble everything, there are not many like people, muskets and artillery are completely eating the old book, and now they are still using the goods used in the destruction of the Great Song Dynasty a hundred years ago, and the rebels are completely incomparable, if it weren't for the emperor standing above, he really wanted to shout:

"Your Majesty, times have changed"

King Ruyang swallowed the words behind him, knelt on the ground and was silent, waiting for the fate, he had already accepted his fate, this time the emperor was obviously looking for a scapegoat, and no matter how much he said, it would be in vain.

"Since you don't speak, it's a tacit acquiescence" Looking at King Ruyang, who gave up his quibble below, Emperor Yuan Shun was slightly happy in his heart, and wanted to completely characterize this matter:

"That's good, pass the decree, the king of Ruyang is not good for encircling and suppressing the rebels, misleading the country and the people, and now he will be put in prison, waiting for the future to collect the charges and deal with them together."

"Come on, pull down"

"Your Majesty, I am wronged, I am loyal to Dayuan, the sun and the moon can be seen, please be clear!" The king of Ruyang shouted loudly and was dragged out by the guards with his arms crossed.

"Heh" looked at the King of Ruyang who was dragged down, Emperor Yuan Shun didn't look at it much, he was already thinking about getting his military power back, and when the time came, whether it was running away or something else, he could protect his own safety. Even if you flee back to the grassland, you don't have to worry about being set aside, and being a puppet can still keep your glory and wealth.

retracted his gaze and looked at another person: "Uncle Seventh Emperor, I heard that you and King Ruyang are in-laws?" ”

"Ahh There is absolutely no such thing, but my son is relatively close to the daughter of the king of Ruyang, so there will be such rumors, and please let Your Majesty know about it. The face of the Seventh Prince, who was looking for ants on the ground, changed greatly, and he hurriedly explained.

"That's the case, then you will be responsible for handling this case, don't mess it up with me, or you will be the only one who asks." Emperor Yuan Shun glanced at the Seventh Prince, who was kneeling on the ground trembling, snorted coldly, and left the Jinluan Hall with a flick of his sleeves. After the accompanying eunuchs shouted the word "retreat from the dynasty", the courtiers knelt down to send the emperor away.

"Whew, I'm almost going to follow in the footsteps of King Ruyang." On the way back to the house, in the carriage, the pale face of the Seventh Prince had not yet eased, "It seems that we should get rid of him as soon as possible, so as not to be implicated." ”

As soon as the seventh prince got out of the carriage, he saw his son Zhao Qiang standing anxiously at the door before he entered the door.

"Son, what are you doing standing outside the door, it's going to rain this day, let's talk about anything when you go in."

"Dad, you're coming" Zhao Qiang saw his father come back, his brows furrowed and his face showed a smile: "Dad, I heard that Min Min's father was arrested and put in prison, you should think of a way to save him"

"Smack" "Bastard"

"Dad, you?"

"Don't say it anymore" Looking at the stupid son who covered his face and didn't know anything, the seventh prince was also tired: "Do you know that your father and I almost couldn't get out today, you are still thinking about helping Zhao Min and her family, have you thought about my father, have you considered it for our family." ”

Zhao Qiang covered his face and looked a little innocent: "Dad, is this matter so serious?" He knew that his father was extremely powerful in the court, but he didn't expect to have such an attitude now.

"Okay, I'll tell you clearly now, King Ruyang's family is over, and you don't have to deal with them in the future, it will kill your father, me and your mother." The seventh prince reached out and touched the face that slapped his son just now, and his tone was a little lonely:

"Son, you are so old, it's time to be sensible, don't be as impulsive as a child, today Your Majesty Long Yan is furious, so many defeats need a scapegoat to fight, this King of Ruyang is bound to die, even if I intercede, it's useless, and the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, everyone needs someone to take this charge, do you want your father and me to take this charge?"

"I know that you have followed Min Min since you were young because you liked her, but she is not the only one in your life, think about it, don't be willful, good son!" The seventh prince patted his son on the shoulder and entered the palace.

Looking at his somewhat lonely father, Zhao Qiang's nose was sour.

"Dad, I understand, I will no longer be willful in the future." Zhao Qiang looked at his father's back and shouted loudly.

"Okay, just understand." The Seventh Prince turned his head to look at his son, his eyes were a little relieved, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he waved his hand and asked him to step back, "You don't go out today, it will be very chaotic and very unsafe to wait outside." ”

Seeing his son who went back to the room to rest, the seventh prince's face turned straight, and he whispered to the guards on the side and ordered: "You follow my order, now immediately order all the people and horses to surround the Ruyang Palace, and arrest all the family members inside for me, and that Zhao Min, don't let her run away." ”
