Chapter 501: Long Live King Yan
At this time, Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu and other generals had already led the Chinese army to catch up from behind, and the soldiers of the Yan army were all ready to surround Yingtian City on all sides, ready to do the final battle to capture the city, just waiting for the sound of the siege cannons.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Zhu Di did not immediately order the siege of the city, but smiled at the generals around him,
"Don't worry, the Lone King really wants to give it a try and see if I can let this gate open alone."
"Your Highness?"
Zhu Neng was stunned and persuaded,
"The capital is in front of you, whether it is for those people in the capital or for us outside the city, it is the last moment, you better not take this risk."
Zhu Neng's meaning, everyone understands, although along the way, because of Zhu Yunwen's 'ban on killing', no one in the southern army dares to hurt Zhu Di, but now it is different, it is completely a matter of life and death, who dares to guarantee that the emperor who is already in danger will still insist on the idea of "not killing my uncle"?
Of course, Zhu Di also understood the worries of this confidant, but he had a new card in his heart, so he still smiled and said,
"Rest assured, maybe the Lone King can make the Jinchuan Gate break by just relying on this cover on his head, it's really not necessarily."
After that, he urged the horse to take the lead and move steadily in the direction of the capital.
More than 100,000 soldiers of the Yan army followed from behind, although they didn't know why His Highness was so confident, but they also followed up silently, but the development of the matter really made them really can't believe it, just when the Yan King's cover came to only a few hundred meters away from the Jinchuan Gate, the tall city gate really slowly opened to both sides until it was completely opened......
"Daddy, the gates are open! The gates are open! ”
First of all, Zhu Gaoxu shouted and almost jumped up from his horse.
Under the surprised gaze of the soldiers, Zhu Di smiled slightly and said,
"Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu, you two entered the city with the Lonely King Commander's vanguard battalion, and the rest of the soldiers were temporarily stationed outside the city, and they were not allowed to move without my order!"
"We will obey His Highness's orders!"
Seeing that after three years of hard work, the final victory was finally ushered in, and everyone had only joy in their hearts, it didn't matter if His Highness let him enter the city or not, it would be good to take a good rest outside the city. In this way, the Yan army conquered the so-called "indestructible" Jinling City in an instant without bloodshed.
Zhu Di, accompanied by his two sons and two favorite generals, finally came to the Jinchuan Gate, while Zheng He and Wu Pingwen were still cautiously guarding the left and right.
Just approached the tall city gate cave, I saw Li Jinglong, who was dressed in military uniform, and Zhu Lu, the king of the valley, leading all the soldiers defending the city to stand in two compartments.
"We are waiting to welcome His Royal Highness King Yan!"
"Hurry up, two of you!"
To be honest, although the other party is his junior, in retrospect, since he was a child, this is the first time he has seen Li Jinglong really kneel down and pay homage with a big salute, Zhu Di is amused and relieved, it seems that he did not guess the hint passed on by the nineteenth brother, and in the end, it was this flesh and blood affection that helped him give this war a happy ending.
By this time, the defenders of the city had fallen to their knees, shouting in unison,
"Welcome His Royal Highness King Yan into the city!"
"Flat!"
Zhu Di urged the horse into the capital......
It's been three years, and it's been more than three years since I left Beijing last time, and nothing has changed, only people and people's hearts have changed......
In fact, even at this time, Zhu Di had to make a decision as soon as possible, what to do next, as soon as he thought of this, the idea of meeting his nephew Zhu Yunwen came to his mind again, filling every corner of his mind.
Doesn't he want to see me? What the hell was he thinking-
Zhu Di kept asking himself again and again, why Yun Wei was disgusted with his fourth uncle, he had reached such a point that he didn't even want to see him, did he really hate himself so much......
That kind of sadness and sadness swept all his senses again, but at this moment, Zhu Di suddenly heard bursts of shouts,
"Long live King Yan! Long live King Yan! ”
Zhu Di couldn't help but restrain his mount, and his eyes swept to the road leading to the imperial city in front of him, as well as the people of the capital kneeling on both sides of the road, as well as those officials in the court.
Could it be that all these ministers have run here? So, in the imperial city and in the Golden Palace, who else is with Yun Wei-
Inexplicably, Zhu Di was worried about this, he really wanted to know what his nephew was doing at this moment. When he turned around, he saw Li Jinglong and Zhu Lu, who were already following him, and asked,
"Jinglong, isn't there anyone in this capital to defend anymore?"
"This ......"
With a strange smile on his face, Li Jinglong glanced at him meaningfully and said,
"Don't hide it from Your Highness, since Jianwen ascended the throne, the courtesy to the generals and kings is really indescribable, there are many people who are actually looking forward to your coming, and when you are really here now, he uses these people to defend the city, how can you say that this city defense can be tight? Not to mention the defenders, even the Imperial Forest Army has dispersed, and at this time, even the Imperial City is probably unguarded. ”
"How can it be so ......"
A burst of sorrow rose from the bottom of Zhu Di's heart, and he gently closed his eyes and calmed down, before he called Qiu Fudao,
"Qiu Fu, you take the order of the lonely king, and assign all the generals to guard the city gates everywhere, do not disturb the people, and do not despise the garrison in the Central Plains of this city, if you violate the order, you will be killed on the spot!"
"The last general obeys!"
Qiu Fu received the order in hand and left with his own soldiers on horseback.
Zhu Di called Zhu Nengdao again,
"You take your brothers to Longjiang Station and send an order to go down, without the hand of the Lone King, no one is allowed to step into the imperial city for half a step, if there is a violation, you will not be spared!"
"The last general obeys!"
Zhu Neng also turned around and left to give the order.
Zhu Di stopped and looked at the tall imperial city, he was waiting, still waiting......
On this day, at the same time that the Yan army entered the city, Zhu Yunwen, who was in the imperial city, was in an incomparably tormented heart, when he stood in the Fengtian Hall in despair, looking at the panicked appearance of less than half of the ministers left, all he could do was to smile bitterly,
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's stop here today's morning, there's no point in staying here, you all have to go home and live a peaceful life."
"Your Majesty,"
Fang Xiaoru stepped forward and said,
"Your Majesty, please allow your ministers to be by your side......"
"What's the use of accompaniment? Is it possible to restore all of this to what it used to be? ”
There was a hint of ridicule in Zhu Yunwen's eyes, which made Fang Xiaoru stunned.
Glancing at everyone again, Zhu Yunwen snorted lightly and said,
"Let's go, I want to be quiet......"
After saying that, he turned around and walked backwards, never looking back......
The dozens of courtiers who remained in the main hall looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed helplessly, and finally left one after another.
The surrounding was as quiet as death, and those attendants had already been driven away by him, until no one could see it, Zhu Yunwen sat on his dragon chair dejectedly, and the wide palace was empty, and he was the only one left.
This is the real loner, right-
Zhu Yunwen smiled bitterly, but what attracted it were two lines of tears, which flowed down uncontrollably......
In fact, he hated those ministers, it was those people who asked him to cut the domain, and those people said that the fourth uncle would definitely rebel, but when the fourth uncle really rebelled, those people were helpless, and he had to bear everything in the end.
He missed the days when he was by the emperor's grandfather's side, and the days when he accompanied the old man with the fourth uncle, he knew that there would never be such a day again, and the only closest fourth uncle in his heart had become the one who was about to drive him off the throne at this time......
