Wang Yongguang actually didn't want to see such a result, that is, his people would be reduced to the point of wagging their tails and begging for mercy from the apocalypse.

But he really didn't expect that these people would think of using the countryside to surround the town to deal with them gentry.

So much so that they lost badly.

Wang Yongguang can only wag his tail to the apocalypse and beg for mercy now.

"Your Majesty! The sinner is guilty, but the sinner is not disloyal to His Majesty! ”

"The criminal minister has come to this point now, and it is because the criminal minister was kidnapped to Wei Hui by the traitor who took refuge in King Lu, that the criminal minister has to come to this point!"

"After being kidnapped to King Lu, the criminal minister wanted to die of hunger strike, in order to celebrate the minister's festival, but then the minister thought that the minister could not be loyal and useless, instead of hunger strike, it was better to compromise and secretly contribute to the rebellion of the court."

"Therefore, since the criminal minister joined the rebels, he deliberately sold his official position, embezzled and accepted bribes, and deliberately let the rebels levy the people, and recommended the mediocre ministers as commanders, which made it easier for the court to quell the rebellion!"

"Now, when I heard that Your Majesty's army had arrived in the suburbs, the criminal minister wept with joy, thinking that he had not lived up to the suffering of the enemy, and took the opportunity of the criminal minister being the overseer, and decisively dedicated the city to Your Majesty, so that the people would not be destroyed."

"The guilty minister answered His Majesty's question about why he came to the rebel army as an official. As for why the guilty minister is unwilling to die for His Majesty! The minister wants to say, this is not a thing! The criminal minister is His Majesty's minister in life, and his Majesty's ghost in death, and he will never dare to have a heart of disobedience! Your Majesty! ”

Wang Yongguang got up with his head on the ground as he spoke.

"The same is true of the ministers, they will never dare to have the heart of disobedience, and now they are just compromising to the enemy, Your Majesty!"

Ding Qirui and other ministers also chimed in.

They were all as desperate as Wang Yongguang now, and they didn't expect that His Royal Highness King Lu, who did not follow the new policy and treated the gentry politely, would decline so quickly after the army rose up and grew rapidly, that he had no power to fight back in front of the court, so they all waged their tails and begged for mercy.

Wang Yongguang then said: "The criminal ministers have deliberately sold their official positions and embezzled and accepted bribes under the command of the rebels these days to damage the foundation of the rebels, so they have obtained a huge sum of three million taels of silver, and now they are willing to submit them to the imperial court for confiscation, in order to show the sincerity of the guilty ministers, and hope that Your Majesty will see clearly!" ”

"Three million taels?"

It turned out that when Zhu Changshu heard that the imperial army had arrived in the suburbs of Weihui and knew that he had no way to survive and was ready to commit suicide, Ye Chengxue, who was elected by Wang Yongguang and became his close minister, stopped him at this time, saying that reinforcements had arrived outside and asked him to meet him.

But Zhu Changshu didn't expect that as soon as he came, he saw that his ministers were all kneeling in the suburbs to greet the imperial court officials!

The key is Wang Yongguang, whom he has always trusted!

Zhu Changshu was stunned at that time.

However, fortunately, these ministers who knelt to welcome the apocalypse did not notice Zhu Changshu because they were kneeling on the ground and burying their heads.

Zhu Changshu was also able to hear Wang Yongguang's confession that he had betrayed his official position, embezzled and accepted bribes, and damaged his own foundation.

Zhu Changshu couldn't stand it for a while, so much so that he forgot to ask the apocalypse for his guilt.

Apocalypse also saw Zhu Changshu here.

But he didn't pay attention to Zhu Changshu now, and only continued to ask Wang Yongguang: "So, are you really well-intentioned?" Therefore, the words you said in praise of King Lu in the "Mingli Daily" are just words against your heart? ”

"Your Majesty! King Lu is just an anti-king, and he is cruel and unkind, has no benevolence to the people, and extorts violently! Even to the court officials who support the reform want to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin, they have no benevolence! ”

"How can a criminal minister really praise the king, even if he woos the gentry, it is just harboring evil intentions. The criminal minister will advise His Majesty to compete with him for the hearts of the people, but he will never allow him to succeed in his rebellion and ruin the world! ”

Wang Yongguang said again: "Therefore, when this brutal anti-king wanted to escape to Guanzhong, the minister did not hesitate to risk his life to dissuade him and make him stay, just so that he could be captured alive for His Majesty today, and be punished by the Ming Dynasty, so as to set an example, instead of harming Guanzhong." ”

"Wang Yongguang!"

Zhu Changshu really couldn't stand it, so he couldn't help yelling and looking at him angrily.

He now wants to eat Wang Yongguang's heart.

Wang Yongguang was also shocked when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Didn't you let Ye Chengxue force him to hang himself, why did this King Lu come here?" What is this Ye Chengxue doing! ”

Ye Chengxue saw Zhang Gui nodding to him at this time, so he wittily fled from here and headed west.

At this time, Zhu Changshu continued to shout at Wang Yongguang: "Haven't you always praised Gu is benevolent lord?!" Why do you have to sell your loneliness now! You touch your conscience, when did Lone not respect you, but why did you treat Lone like this! You guys are damned! ”

Wang Yongguang, Ding Qirui and other ministers did not answer.

At this point, their answer is meaningless.

In their opinion, it is not necessary to reason with a pawn that they have given up.

They just didn't expect Zhu Changshu to come here instead of staying in the palace to hang himself, and this undoubtedly made their current situation a little embarrassing.

"Your Majesty!"

Zhu Changshu knelt down towards Tianqi at this time, and exclaimed bitterly: "The sinner deserves to die!" Sinners shouldn't have listened to their rebellion, woo! ”

Tianqi watched Zhu Changshu crying profusely, and knew that he was also being pitted too badly by these Wenchen now, so he shed tears of remorse at this moment, so he was also a little touched.

But Tianqi still said to Zhu Changshu very seriously: "King Lu, look at these people in your fiefdom, which one is not hungry and cold, which one is not skinny, and even many have starved to death and turned into white bones!" It can be said that these are all caused by you, because if you had not opposed the New Deal, or even rebelled against it, they would have been relieved by the imperial court, and even relied on the imperial court to regain their livelihood. Do you now know how much sin you have done? ”

Zhu Changshu burst into tears, and only replied again: "The sinner deserves to die!" ”

"You may feel that the life and death of the people has nothing to do with you, as long as your own interests are not damaged, and it is even better to get more, and even become an emperor and sit on the world."

"But you wouldn't think that it's because you didn't take them too seriously that you're where you are today. I don't have a long brain, I only know how to seek personal gain, and as a result, I was pitted by the scholars and doctors you think are all saints and gentlemen, they are also people, how can they help you if they are not beneficial? ”

"You don't really think that they are all like the people they say, willing to go to the trouble for you for the sake of benevolence, right? The words of the saints, they use them for you, but it does not mean that they will actually do what the saints say! ”

Apocalypse said, "I'm not surprised by today's scene. Moreover, you have to wait, in order not to make your behavior so ugly in the history books, they will write more ugly words about you. Otherwise, how can they testify of their righteousness today? ”

Zhu Changshu wept silently, and when he heard the apocalypse say this, he said, "Your Majesty! Pye, sinners, let them all die well! Your Majesty, please! ”

"Why should I fulfill you? It was you who rebelled against me first, and you followed them, thinking that I was a tyrant and a faint king, but I was afraid that if I really fell into your hands, you would not hesitate to put me to death! ”

Apocalypse asked.

Zhu Changshu was speechless for a while, and said, "But Your Majesty! They are the worst people, and they are the ones who instigated the rebellion, saying that the ministers will be echoed by the people of the world when they raise an army; The sinners have been taken advantage of by them! ”

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, if you don't punish them severely, they will be even more rampant, and they will instigate other vassal kings! Your Majesty, even if the Zhu family is sorry for the common people and should be executed, it is not their turn to be killed like this! ”
