Fengyang.

Night.

In the lobby of the Left-behind Division.

Lan Yu looked at Yang Feng with complicated eyes.

As for his sons......

In fact, after Yang Feng and the princess began to charge savagely, they quickly dispersed.

That's not the group of righteous sons who could live and die together back then, the vast majority of those groups have been dismissed from various places in these years, and then either killed on various charges, or forced to die on the battlefield, although there are indeed a small number of officers among them, but the vast majority of them are actually newly acquired in the past six months. As for this new righteous son, it is nothing more than because he regained power, and then wanted to follow to seek wealth and wealth, it has only been half a year in total, can he get any loyal righteous son in such a short time?

Don't be funny.

Even those who tend to be inflammatory, but they account for the vast majority.

When they learned that the princess was coming, they were afraid that Lan Yu would die and that their wealth would be gone, so they did have the courage to turn their hearts sideways to intercept them.

In addition, the main thing is that he is arrogant and domineering.

After all, the purpose of their righteous son for Lan Yu was to be arrogant, and they didn't realize how terrible the enemy they were about to face was, they just regarded it as their usual arrogance and domineering.

Princesses only!

A woman needs not be afraid.

But......

After being horrified to find that Yang Feng was really like the legend, most of them immediately collapsed.

Only two or three hundred of them were truly loyal, that is, the remaining members of the group of righteous sons back then, who did try to rush forward and fight Yang Feng, but they all ended up either falling under bullets or being crucified to death by the spears of the Shenji Battalion.

As for their interception, of course, it has nothing to do with Sapphire.

That's just that the generals led by them are not sensible.

Rough man!

Simple-minded, one-tendon.

Lan Yu told them to guard the floating mountain, and no one was allowed to pass through, and they fully obeyed the order.

And then even Her Royal Highness the princess with the holy decree dared to stop it!

A bunch of idiots!

Of course, none of this matters anymore.

In the end, it was Her Royal Highness the Princess who arrived in Fengyang to end Lan Yu's last struggle.

"In this way, the old man has not escaped the poisonous hands of Emperor Daxing after all?"

In the flickering light, Lan Yu sat there holding a wine glass and said calmly.

He has already received the edict.

Of course, he didn't commit suicide right away.

"Yes, in the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, you were killed for rebellion, skinned and grassed, exterminated the clan, and was implicated and killed It is said that more than 10,000 are said, and some say tens of thousands, and not only you, Cao Zhen, Wang Bi, etc., a total of one duke, thirteen marquis and two uncles. It is also said that Chang Sheng is also included, but the records of later generations are more chaotic, and it is also said that he later died in Zhu Di's battle against Zhu Yunwen, in short, he is doubtful! ”

Yang Feng said.

There are two kinds of accounts of the ascension.

One is to die in the Lanyu case, and the other is to die in the Battle of Pukou at the time of Jingjing.

"Sure enough, it was Emperor Daxing's means, when Ye Sheng died, I guessed that he was going to purge us old ministers, but I didn't expect him to release Zhou Dexing again, so I thought I guessed wrong.

It turns out that I didn't guess wrong, but it was just an accident with you.

I've lived a few more years.

Thank you! ”

Lan Yu said.

Zhu Yuanzhang killed Ye Sheng, it is speculated that he was preparing to clean up the group of Lan Yu, first kill Ye Sheng as Hu Weiyong and his gang, and then let Lan Yu panic and find a way, or privately connect with several other veterans who have a good relationship with Ye Sheng, and then Zhu Yuanzhang said that they intended to rebel, and finally wiped out the group.

So it makes sense.

After all, these guys have iron coupons, and they still have to find a reason after all.

"This is not necessary, although my appearance has allowed you to live for many more years, but now I am also sending you on your way."

Yang Feng said.

"That's fair!"

Lan Yu said with a cold smile.

Of course, he also admitted that Yang Feng did help them.

After all, his children and grandchildren don't have to die.

For them, as long as they keep their children and grandchildren, they can keep this title, they were saved from being killed because of Yang Feng's appearance, but now they are forced to commit suicide by Yang Feng, it stands to reason that they hate Yang Feng, but the problem is that Yang Feng finally saved the glory and wealth of their descendants for them.

"I think it's fair too."

Yang Feng said.

"Therefore, this Ming Dynasty was originally inherited by Zhu Yunwen?"

Sapphire then said.

"Yes, immediately after succeeding to the throne, he cut the feudal domain under the bewitchment of civil officials, successively solved the kings of Zhou, Qi and other kings, and then forced the king of Xiang to death, and wanted to arrest Zhu Di, but the latter took advantage of the situation to raise troops, and in the name of the Qing monarch's side of the Jingguo disaster, he raided the capital after a few years of fighting.

Zhu Yunwen himself lit a fire in the palace, and some said that he was burned to death and that he escaped.

But in short, Zhu Di ascended the throne.

After that, the Ming Dynasty was his descendant. ”

Yang Feng said.

"Hahahaha, the Daxing Emperor's organs are still empty in the end, he thinks that he has arranged everything properly, and he also killed all of us who he is not worried about, so that his grandson can succeed to the throne as the Prince of Peace in peace. But I don't want to lose our old ministers, as well as his sons, we won't threaten his grandson, but his son has robbed him of the throne. ”

Lan Yu said obviously happily.

He was visibly gloating over the result.

"Well, after all, the meat is rotten in the pot."

Yang Feng said.

"Humph!"

Lan Yu snorted coldly.

Then he sat there dejectedly, with unwillingness and anger, drank the wine in the cup, and then threw the wine glass on the ground, of course, there will be no smashing the glass as a number, the core of his subordinates is the Shenji battalion of the four armies, the latter is impossible to protect him and Yang Feng as enemies.

In fact, the main generals of these four armies had already made it clear that they were loyal to the Empress of the Prison State when they received the order before.

They are legions created by His Majesty the Emperor.

His Majesty the Emperor is dead, and if there are no descendants, of course they support King Yan, but now that they know that the emperor still has a posthumous son, of course they must be loyal to the empress.

"Liang Guogong, if there is nothing else, then Yang will leave, I wish you all the best."

Yang Feng said.

With that, he stood up and walked outside.

Lan Yu didn't speak, just drank wine there, and just when Yang Feng went out, Yongping Hou Xie Cheng walked in, he didn't look at Yang Feng, and walked straight into the lobby. Yang Feng looked at the back of his old friend's father, and thought about his old friend for a while, as for how they would scold Zhu Yuanzhang while drinking wine inside, this is none of Yang Feng's business. He watched Xie Cheng go in, closed the door for them, and let the two guys who had been on the road together in history go back on their path, and he just walked outside.

The little princess is still waiting outside!

"How's it going?"

The little princess asked.

"They're all smart people, they've all gotten to this point, and they're not going to do stupid things."

Yang Feng said.

At this time, a general walked up to them.

"Princess, the armies of the North Shore retreat."

He saluted.

"They are waiting for King Yan, don't worry about them, King Yan won't be so stupid."

Yang Feng said.

Zhou Dexing and the others retreated in order to continue to delay time, Lan Yu had nowhere to retreat, but they could keep retreating, anyway, the little princess's carriage was not fast, as long as they kept retreating, they could drag it until King Yan made a decision. But Zhu Di won't be so stupid, after all, he has now retreated with his whole body, and if he gets involved again, he will jump into this pit by himself. And unless he is called the emperor in Beiping, it is useless after all, this edict can only be changed by the emperor, even if he is also called the prison country, he is not qualified to change it, but if he is called the emperor, then he will have no way out.

He still has a way out.

After all, even if he loses the mainland, there will still be the Western Regions.

But......

There are no absolutes.

It is not ruled out that Zhu Di was really afraid that his Zhu family would be stolen by him, so he resolutely chose to fight for the Zhu family.

In short, both possibilities exist.

"Let's go, it's time for us to rest!"

Yang Feng said.

Then they boarded the carriage.

The next day.

The people who stayed behind reported to Her Royal Highness the Princess, Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, and Xie Cheng, the Marquis of Yongping, and followed Emperor Daxing.

Both of them were drunk and let their men have a good time with a short gun.

This form of suicide is clearly welcome.

After all, hanging, taking poison, and killing oneself are inevitably uncomfortable, only this kind of simple pleasure, pulling the trigger on the temple, basically died without feeling the pain, so far Lan Yu finally ended his life, in fact, he was over sixty years old, which was already very good for the ancients.

Yang Feng handed over the army of blue jade to Zhang Yi who rushed back from Qingliu Pass, he didn't have to follow Emperor Daxing, Heqinghou was also the second generation, and his father was Zhang Long in the twenty-four generals of Huaixi. At this time, the king of Chu and the king of Min, who arrived from Wuchang later, had also entered Beijing to prepare for the funeral, and King Min was with Cao Xing, so after Cao Xing got off the ship in the capital, he could only commit suicide in front of Xiaoling.

And so another veteran fell.

And Yang Feng and the little princess crossed the Huai River and continued to spread the message north.

As for Zhu Yunwen, he continued to retreat.

But he was still supported by the civil officials and gentry along the way, and on the grounds that the queen, Princess Hanshan, and Yang Feng colluded to steal the Ming Dynasty, they moved to all directions and called on the Ming Dynasty to be loyal and righteous.

Everybody loves Jing Nan.

So......

Peiping.

"Jing difficult, Jing difficult!"

"Jing Nan!"

……

In the Yanwang Mansion, a group of generals shouted indignantly.

And Zhu Di sat on his throne with a solemn face, silently watching their performance.

It's a show, indeed.

Of course, he knew very well that the reaction of these people had nothing to do with their loyalty to the Zhu family, they just wanted to use this to achieve the prince Wandai, but the problem was that even if they failed, they would not have much to lose, after all, they were just a group of commanders or even thousands of households, even if they died on the battlefield, their families would not be fine.

At most, they will be reduced to commoners.

It's totally worth the risk compared to what you get after you succeed.

But he's different, if he fails, he loses everything.

The titles, the fiefdoms of the Western Regions, all will no longer belong to him.

"King, what are you waiting for? Yang Feng's wolf ambition is obvious, the princess has been stunned by him, and she won't think about anything else at all, not to mention that once she gives birth to a son, doesn't she want her son to be the emperor? Whether the queen gives birth to a prince or not, Yang Feng will make him a prince, nothing more than to find a baby from the outside to replace him, the queen will agree, as long as she has a son to succeed to the throne, it doesn't matter whether she is biological or not, no one else knows about raising him since he was a child. And the princess will inevitably control the government, the queen is just an ordinary woman, but the princess has long controlled the capital, both the military and the people are respected by it, and it can be seen that the defense of the city this time will naturally be her final say.

And she was confused by Yang Feng, and in the end, Yang Feng had the final say.

Next, he will inevitably follow Yang Jian's example, get rid of loyal ministers and clans step by step, replace him with his henchmen, and completely control the imperial court.

Twenty years later, who will stop him from stealing the country? ”

Meng Shan said.

"Yes, even if the king has no intention of becoming the emperor, does he just sit back and watch the Ming Dynasty change hands?

The king said that the emperor raised troops, and then announced that the world was forged by the edict, and the old ministers did not need to obey, then Jiang Xiahou would inevitably be obedient, and the kings would follow, and the troops of the north swept south, and the southern armies would inevitably turn against each other, no matter how powerful Yang Feng was, he would be alone after all, could he be the enemy of the world alone? ”

Chen Qi said.

They didn't go west.

In fact, those who followed Zhu Di were Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu, and Tan Yuan.

As for Zhang Fu, he is not counted as his guard.

"Yo, it's so lively!"

With the sound of talking outside, King Liao walked straight in, followed by Guo Ying and Yang Wen.

Guo Ying has long been released.

However, at this time, the situation was chaotic, and he stayed in Beiping, together with Yang Wen's subordinates, Yang Feng went south alone, but Yang Wen and the Liao Guard's guards stayed in Beiping to wait for the order of the imperial court......

The generals immediately shut up and looked at King Liao vigilantly.

They knew very well that the King of Liao would not participate.

Even once King Yan is called emperor, King Liao and Yang Wen may immediately become enemies, the latter's Liaodong Army is not weak, and King Liao is a guard in Beiping, because all the musket cavalry, the actual combat effectiveness is also very strong, almost the same level as the elite of King Yan's guards, but fortunately, there is Guo Ying, once Guo Ying supports King Yan, then it will be difficult for Yang Wen not to support.

His prestige is enough!

After the King of Liao finished speaking, he stepped aside, and then Guo Ying stepped forward.

"The king, the old minister has followed the Daxing Emperor for decades, with the guard to the marquis, the grace is the head of the generals, and now the Daxing Emperor Bintian, the old minister should be with death, today I came to say goodbye to the king, and asked the king to send the body of the old minister back to the capital!"

He saluted Zhu Di and said.

Meng Shan and the others were instantly dumbfounded.

Zhu Di immediately got up and hurriedly stepped forward to support Guo Ying.

"Marquis Wuding, the edict has not come to this, why should the Marquis of Wuding be in a hurry, it is not too late to make a decision after the edict is here."

He said.

He knew very well that Guo Ying was helping him suppress these generals.

Guo Ying's choice blocked the mouths of these generals.

Of course, the main reason is that Guo Ying is afraid that he will make the wrong choice.

"The king, since you already know about this, why do you have to wait for the edict, the old minister is old, and he doesn't want to suffer from thousands of miles away, so he entrusts the king with all the future."

Guo Ying said.

After speaking, he saluted Zhu Di again.

Then he turned around and walked straight outside under the escort of King Liao and Yang Wen.

Zhu Di silently looked at his back.

There was silence in the main hall.

"Order, this king will enter Beijing for burial."

He said.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Meng Shan and the others, who were obviously wilted.

"Wealth should be taken from foreign lands, there are still tens of thousands of miles of fertile land in the west, where can you not make contributions, the ancients still have thousands of miles to find the marquis, why should you be like the rich man in the countryside, attached to this corner?"

He shouted.
