Chapter 1336: National Martyrdom

Biquge.inforeadx;

Zhang Jiuwei's negotiation is very skillful, he firmly grasps the weakness of human nature, people don't want to die, as long as this person is alive, he will be afraid of death,

It's just that for the sake of justice, some people can indeed overcome the fear of death and go to death calmly.

And Zhang Jiuwei's negotiation skills are reflected in the fact that he not only wants people to survive, but also wants people to live righteously and righteously, so that a person's betrayal will no longer have the slightest sense of humiliation of stealing a life and selling his master for glory.

This is Zhang Jiuwei's ability,

At this time, Liang Ying was speechless by Zhang Jiuwei, and stood frozen in place, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Zhang Jiuwei looked at him meaningfully and sighed: "It has been hundreds of years since the Liang family rebelled from the Wind Country, and the Liang family's debt to the Wind Country has been paid off by the father, and now, it is time for the virtuous nephew to return to the Wind Country and serve the Wind Country, what are the virtuous nephews still hesitating about?"

"I ...... I ...... "Zhang Jiuwei's clever tongue has transferred the roots of the Liang family from Ningnan to Fengguo, which makes Liang Ying a little insane.

He frowned, as if he was asking Zhang Jiuwei, and as if he was talking to himself, and said: "Wind Country, how can Wind Country tolerate me,"

"Yes," Zhang Jiuwei patted his chest and promised: "Your Highness has made it very clear to me, as long as the virtuous nephew is willing to lead the army back to the Wind Country, the virtuous nephew is the hero of the gale, no matter what the virtuous nephew has done before, the Wind Country will not only not blame the past, but also look at the Liang family's affection for the Marquis of Wu, and entrust him with a heavy responsibility, what else does the virtuous nephew have to worry about,"

"This ...... Let me think twice," Liang Ying took two steps back, and the saber in his hand had already been withdrawn into the scabbard.

"Back then, Marquis Wu, assisted the Holy Ancestor Emperor, fought in the south and the north, made brilliant achievements, and created a great wind empire, which has long been rumored to be a good story, and now the opportunity for the virtuous nephew to regain the mantle of the ancestors has finally come, what is the virtuous nephew still hesitating, the opportunity must not be lost, and the loss will not come, wait until the wind army loses patience and storms the palace, and the virtuous nephew regrets it too late,"

"Don't hesitate anymore, it's time to make a decision now, when the judgment continues, and suffer from it, virtuous nephew, this broad road is right now in front of you," Zhang Jiuwei didn't give Liang Yingsi a chance to think about it before and after, he was striking while the iron was hot, and his mouth was like a river, as if a cannon was a cannon.

"Shangguan ...... Shangguan Xiu can really tolerate me,"

Zhang Jiuwei patted his chest and said: "The old man can vouch for his personality, after the reunification of the two countries, the virtuous nephew can still stay in Tianjing as the head of the guard battalion, of course, whether the virtuous nephew can be further promoted and reused in the future depends on the nephew's own performance,"

Liang Ying asked, "What about ...... Then my brethren,"

"As long as they are not enemies of the gale, the court will never move them, and if they are all like the virtuous nephews, with the heart of returning to the right path, the court will also treat them equally and give them reuse,"

Liang Ying didn't ask anymore, fell into silence, his face was white and blue, his fists were loose and clenched, and he was clenched and loosened.

"Virtuous nephew," Zhang Jiuwei said in an accentuated tone: "The artillery of the Feng Army has been set up outside the palace, as long as an order is given, ten thousand cannons are fired at once, the palace will be scorched in an instant, and none of the brothers in the guard battalion will survive, just look at the love of more than 10,000 soldiers, don't hesitate anymore,"

Liang Ying took a deep breath, turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth, nodded heavily, and said, "Okay, Master Zhang, I'll ...... I listen to you, and that is, the last general...... The last general is willing to lead all the soldiers of the capital escort battalion to return to the country of wind,"

His words are tantamount to completely dooming the fate of the eldest grandson Bohao,

As the presidential leader of the Duwei Battalion, Liang Ying's prestige in the Duwei Battalion is too high, and he is completely responsive.

He proposed that the whole army return to the Shunfeng country, although many of the soldiers below could not understand why Liang Ying, who had always been known for his loyalty and patriotism, suddenly chose to defect, but none of the more than 10,000 soldiers in the Duwei battalion questioned it, and all followed Liang Ying and surrendered to the Feng country.

The defection of the capital guard battalion not only cut off a new force in the palace defenders, but also directly sent the North Palace City Defense to the wind army, so far, the palace door was wide open, and the wind army was able to directly attack the palace.

And the person who let the Feng Army generals open the palace defenses without bloodshed is Zhang Jiuwei,

The old man relied on a three-inch tongue to rebel against Liang Ying, who was loyal to the eldest grandson Bohao, and the power of Zhang Jiuwei's tongue was not inferior to that of thousands of troops.

I'm afraid that the eldest grandson Bohao would never have imagined that his most favored minister, Zhang Jiuwei, was the one who hurt him the most and put him to death the most.

Knowing that Liang Ying led the capital guard battalion to surrender to the Feng Army, the city defense of the North Palace had been destroyed, and the soldiers of the Ningnan Army stationed in the East Palace, the West Palace, and the South Palace hurriedly rushed to the North Palace, and planned to recapture the city defense of the North Palace, but at this time, the team of the Wind Army had already entered the palace along the North Palace, and met with the Janissaries and the remnants of the First Legion who rushed over.

The two sides didn't say a word, and immediately launched a fierce battle in the palace.

The palace bedchamber,

The eldest grandson Bohao, who was sitting on the collapse and napping, was awakened by the sound of gunfire close at hand, he shivered, woke up leisurely, opened his eyes, and first looked around blankly, the huge dormitory was empty,

He took a deep breath and said, "Someone,"

No one answered, and the dormitory was silent, and he stood up and shouted, "Someone—"

With the sound of hurried footsteps, two pale-faced female officials trotted in from outside, and when the two came to the front of the eldest grandson Bohao, they knelt on their knees and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty,"

"What's going on out there, why is it so messy,"

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, it is said, it is said that ......"

"Say what,"

"It is said that Liang Ying, the leader of the guard battalion, has surrendered to the Feng Army, and the Feng Army has now entered the palace from the North Palace,"

"What," Eldest Sun Bohao was shocked and angry, he walked quickly to the two female officers, grabbed the clothes of one of the female officers, dragged her up from the ground, and asked sharply, "What did you say?"

"Liang ...... Liang Ying surrendered to the enemy, and the wind army was ...... has entered the palace from the North Palace......" The female official trembled in fright and stammered,

Liang Ying surrendered to the enemy, even Liang Ying and the capital guard battalion surrendered to the enemy, this is really ridiculous, the last barrier to guard the capital and the palace, which should have been the most loyal to the emperor, is it not ridiculous enough,

The eldest grandson Bohao seemed to have been hit with a hammer, slowly loosened the female officer's clothes, walked barefoot in the hall, and suddenly laughed wildly,

"Your Majesty," with the call, a stunning woman of the same age as the eldest grandson Bohao and gorgeously dressed walked in from outside, this woman was the eldest grandson Bohao's wife, the queen of Ningnan, Ye Huasheng,

Seeing her, the eldest grandson Bohao's wild laughter stopped abruptly, and he staggered over, and said in a hoarse voice: "Queen, Xiang'er,"

"Your Majesty, the concubine is here," Ye Huashang walked forward quickly,

The eldest grandson Bohao held her hand and said in a trembling voice: "Feng Jun...... The Wind Army has already breached the Imperial Palace, and soon, it will be here soon, I ...... I really want to become the king of Haotian's fallen country......"

"Your Majesty......" Looking at the eldest grandson Bohao with thin cheeks, sunken eye sockets, and scarlet eyes, Ye Huasheng's heart was like a knife, and she said in a trembling voice: "No matter what time it is, the concubine will be with Your Majesty,"

The eldest grandson Bohao nodded, and also held the queen's hand tighter, and he asked, "Xiang'er hasn't had breakfast yet, right?"

"Your Majesty......"

"I don't seem to have had dinner with Xiang'er for a long time," the eldest grandson Bohao looked at the two female officials kneeling beside him and said, "Prepare wine and food,"

"Yes, Your Majesty," the two female officers stood up in a panic, bowed, and retreated all the way, turning around and walking out when they reached the door of the dormitory.

The eldest grandson Bohao pulled Ye Huashang to sit down, he looked at her delicate face, and said with a wry smile: "Shang'er has lost weight,"

As soon as the words fell, there was a rush of gunfire and shouts outside, he subconsciously glanced outside the dormitory, and asked, "Are you afraid?"

Ye Huashang lowered her head, choked up and said: "As long as Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy, as long as you let the concubine be with Your Majesty, the concubine will not be afraid of anything,"

When the eldest grandson Bohao heard this, he smiled on his back, but his tears were like pearls with broken threads, ticking down on the paving.

At this time, a palace maid walked in from outside, walked in front of the eldest grandson Bohao and Ye Huasheng, knelt down and kowtowed: "Report to Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Lord Guan, Lord Ming, Lord Li, Lord Leng...... ......"

"What's wrong with them," Eldest Sun Bohao leaned forward subconsciously, frdo

The palace maid said in a trembling voice: "Four adults...... Four adults have committed suicide and martyred themselves in the Taihe Treasure Hall......"

The eldest grandson Bohao felt that his head was buzzing, his eyes were black, and he almost fainted on the spot.

"Your Majesty take care of the dragon's body......"

The eldest grandson Bohao raised his hand, closed his eyes, choked up and said, "I, I'm sorry for Guan Aiqing, I'm sorry for them,"

The two female officers who had just left walked back, each holding a push plate in their hands, which contained wine and food.

After the two of them finished serving the wine and food, the eldest grandson Bohao waved his hand weakly and said, "You all go down,"

"Your Majesty," the female officials and palace maids present knelt on the ground one after another, one by one, crying silently, the eldest grandson Bohao waved his hand again, and said, "Go down,"

The female officials and palace maids stood up with tears in their eyes, and exited the dormitory.

In the huge dormitory, there are only two people left, the eldest grandson Bohao and Ye Huasheng, the eldest grandson Bohao lifted the wine jug, poured two glasses of wine, he picked up the cup, and said: "Xiang'er has been with me for many years, and has suffered a lot, I am really ashamed of Xiang'er,"

Ye Huashang lowered her head, her eyes sprinkled on the placket, "Your Majesty has always been the same to Shang'er, how can you feel guilty?"

"When I married Xiang'er, I once told Xiang'er that I wanted to make Xiang'er the most noble woman in the world, and my words back then ......"

"Your Majesty has achieved it, and Shang'er is now the queen, and she is already the most noble woman in the world,"

Ye Huasheng's words made the eldest grandson Bohao more and more worried, he took Ye Huasheng's hand and looked at her appearance, as if he could never get enough of it, "I don't regret taking the throne,"

"The concubine understands,"

"I, it's not that I haven't worked hard, I also want to turn the tide and save the country and the people from fire and ......water."

"The concubines all understand,"

The eldest grandson Bohao drank all the wine in the cup, poured another glass, and said: "The kings and widows of the dead countries of the past dynasties have all been humiliated and died with hatred...... ......

After he finished speaking, Ye Huasheng had already taken out a small porcelain vase from his cuff, looked at the eldest grandson Bohao with a firm gaze, and said word by word: "Your Majesty is at ease, concubine...... The concubines are all ready,"

The small porcelain vase is white, only the bottom is painted red, the eldest grandson Bohao knows this porcelain vase, which contains a highly poisonous crane top red, seeing the queen take out this porcelain vase, his body was shocked, and he said in a trembling voice: "Xiang'er ......"

"Your Majesty rest assured, the concubine will not let Your Majesty worry," as he spoke, Ye Huashang opened the cap of the bottle and poured the liquid inside into the wine glass,

The eldest grandson Bohao bit his lip tightly, blood seeped out from between his teeth, he couldn't help it anymore, took Ye Huashang into his arms, and cried loudly,

He is not yet twenty years old, Ye Huasheng is even younger, strictly speaking, he is only a half-old child, but at this moment, he has already made up his mind to die.

"In heaven is willing to be a winged bird, in the earth is willing to be a branch, the concubine can be with His Majesty, never regretted, the concubine is His Majesty's queen, is the queen of Hao Tianguo, will never be subject to thieves, let Your Majesty be humiliated,"

While speaking, she picked up the wine glass on the table, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "Your Majesty, let the concubine take the first step, it's okay,"
