Chapter 622: North Korea

Zhu Changying, the king of Gui, Zhu Youlang, the princess, the princess Li, Ruan Dayue, Ma Shiying, Zhou Yanru and others climbed into a fishing boat in a panic, thinking about running to the opposite shore first, but they forgot that they didn't know how to support the boat at all, and they were scrambling to paddle one by one, but the boat was only ten steps away from the lake, and kept spinning.

At this time, the shouting and killing in the county government has become weaker and weaker, Money can make ghosts grind, and Ni Dachang offered a heavy reward, which made Zhang Dafa and his patrol soldiers brave.

On the contrary, because of King Gui's escape, the guards of the palace became more and more discouraged, and they did not have an advantage in numbers, and after barely supporting about half a stick of incense, they collapsed on the whole line, either being cut into pulp by the red-eyed Liyang patrolmen, or they were so frightened that they turned around and ran.

The fleeing guards were obviously not as valuable as the elders of the imperial court and the prison country, and in just a moment, Ni Dachang chased them to Tianmu Lake with fifty or sixty patrolmen.

"Your Highness, the minister is really here to escort you, and please return as soon as possible, don't hurt the dragon's body."

Looking at the fishing boats constantly spinning by the lake, Ni Dachang's words were sincere, if it weren't for the soldiers present who knew that it was Ni Zhixian who led people to break the Zhixian Yamen, they might really think that he was protecting King Qin.

"You shameless ......!"

Ma Shiying scolded, he really hated Ni Dachang, a despicable villain, and even more hated that he had no eyes, he listened to Ni Dachang's nonsense, and mistakenly made the villain a loyal minister, so that His Royal Highness the prison was reduced to hiding in the lake.

“…… Zhang Dafa, take your people to invite His Royal Highness the county general Jianguo over, Ma Ge Lao, the person who knows the times is Junjie, and the student is forced to do this! ”

Ni Dachang's face turned red, and finally he gritted his teeth and ordered Zhang Dafa to take people, Zhang Dafa and the others were already impatient, everyone knew that the living eunuch His Royal Highness and the court elder must be worth more than death, and they didn't take off their clothes one by one, and jumped into the lake in a daze, holding a knife in their mouths, and desperately swam towards the fishing boat.

"The old minister doesn't know anyone...... Trapped in a desperate situation, the old minister is ashamed of His Royal Highness, ashamed of the emperor's ancestors, although the minister is dead, he can't resign himself. ”

Looking at the frightened faces of Guiwang Zhu Changying, Prince Zhu Youlang and others, and then looking at the rebellious army that was getting closer and closer, Ma Shiying gritted his steel teeth, and kowtowed heavily to Gui Fan on the boat, and then suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and cut his neck.

With a stream of blood arrows spurting out, Ma Shiying's body rumbled and fell into the lake.

In addition to being frightened or frightened, Zhu Youlang, the prince of the world, was also horrified and pale, and his body kept shaking like chaff.

Zhou Yanru had already been frightened, as the main envoy of the assassination of Li Xingzhi, he knew what would happen to him once he was sent to Beijing, looking at Ma Shiying, who was martyred, Zhou Yanru slowly drew out his sword, closed his eyes, and tried his best to stab himself, but at the moment when the tip of the sword reached his body, he could no longer exert half of his strength, and collapsed on the fishing boat with a "plop".

Life is a life, the grass and trees are autumn, the country is ruined, and you have to serve Your Highness, and the rest of your wishes are enough! The concubine is now only effective in imitating the Empress of Filial Piety, martyrdom for the emperor, and she is unwilling to enter Beijing, which has tarnished my royal reputation. ”

Princess Gui is iron-clad, life and death are small, her name is like the sky, and the nobles of Tianhuang naturally have the bearing of the nobles of the heavens, how can she be wronged and become a prisoner of the rebels, she glanced at Zhou Yanru who was paralyzed on the ground with disdain, and resolutely jumped into the cold lake.

"Ai Fei ......."

"The queen mother ......."

Looking at Ma Shiying who fell in a pool of blood and Mrs. Ma who was drowning in the lake, Zhu Changying and Zhu Youlang were pale, as the relatives of the Ming Dynasty and the supervisor of the Southern Capital, they naturally knew the fate of the king of the dead country, and they wanted to follow the example of Emperor Chongzhen and also die to martyr the country, so that at least they could have a good name in the history books, but their legs and feet had no strength to move at this moment.

"Quick...... Fast...... Don't let them cut themselves off, you guys go and save Princess Gui. ”

Zhang Dafa, who originally had a trace of awe for Zhu Changying, the king of Gui, and Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, shouted anxiously, and after seeing the panicked and uneasy ugliness of the people on the boat, he finally completely relieved his heart, and thought that the living prisoner and the wife of the prison must be worth more than death, and this will swim more desperately.

In just a moment, dozens of Liyang patrolmen climbed onto the fishing boat, Zhang Dafa was still able to be watery, and the two fierce men lifted the dying Queen Ma out of the water.

"Quickly send His Royal Highness and the princess back to Yamen, and Ming Nippon County will personally escort His Royal Highness back to Luan."

Seeing that Zhu Changying and the others were arrested, Ni Dachang was overjoyed, he knew that with these baby bumps in his hands, his future was really immeasurable.

The Jingbei army in the south of the Yangtze River swept across the north and south of the river with a sweeping momentum, the prison of the southern capital collapsed, and the Korean monarchs and ministers in Liaodong also faced the crazy oppression of the puppet Qing court.

North Korea was originally a vassal of the Ming State, and during the Apocalypse, it relied on the Dongjiang Town of the Ming State to fight against the Dongyu repeatedly, and after Mao Wenlong was killed, North Korea fell into a state of isolation.

In the eighth year of Chongzhen, after the puppet Qing Dynasty broke through Phi Dao, the slave chief Hongtai brazenly raised troops into North Korea after the Korean regime refused to obey the appeasement terms of the Qing Dynasty.

In less than a month, the Korean army lost strategic places such as Uiju, Cheolsan, Gwansan, and Pyongyang, and the Korean monarchs had to retreat to South Hanseong to hold on to help.

But at this time, Dongjiang Town had been lost, and the Central Plains were swarmed everywhere, plus the Guanning Army, which was known as the strongest army in the world, did not dare to send a single soldier to contain it, and finally the Southern Han City was still broken by the Eight Banners.

Compared with the rich Ming Dynasty, the slave chief Hongtai obviously did not look down on the barren Korea, but signed an alliance with the Korean monarchs and ministers, requiring the DPRK to hand over the Ming Dynasty's canonized credentials, seals, and send his sons to pledge and provide the Qing Dynasty with money and food for the war, and then led the army back, leaving only the Minister Susa to lead 3,000 troops to stay in Seoul to monitor the Korean monarchs.

Through this personal conquest, Korea completely became a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, and also made Korea from an enemy of the Qing Dynasty to an assistant, fundamentally dissolved the vassal relationship between Korea and the Ming Dynasty, and also got rid of the worries of the Qing court.

It's just that although the Korean military and civilians are attached to the puppet Qing on the surface, they still look down on the Jianzhou Jurchens who drank blood from Ru Mao, and in order to completely control North Korea, the puppet Qing has supported a large number of traitors to enter Seoul as officials, and sent Kim Daequan as the minister of parliament to surrender, and Park Zhengtai as the commander of the palace janissaries.

After the puppet Qing auxiliary king Jierharang was ordered to enter the DPRK to collect grain, he did not wave his army directly into the Korean royal city of Seoul, but stationed in Pyongyang, and wrote to the Korean king Li Liang, asking him to immediately levy 200,000 stone of grain for the Qing Dynasty to use, otherwise, send the Eight Banners army to recruit him.
