Li Zhen sat on the throne of the palace and had a dreamlike feeling.

Did he beat his father?

I'm the king of Joseon now?

Is it so casual?

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

The Min family, generals, Wenchen and others who supported Li Zhen as king knelt down and shouted.

Li Zhen just wanted to say "You don't have to be polite", but when the words came to his lips, he became "all the ministers are flat".

"Your Majesty, although you have occupied the palace, the danger has not yet been lifted."

Song Jiucheng reminded, "The defenders of Kaijing are elite and strong, if they are used by people with intentions......"

"Mr. Song has a point."

Li Zhen was only afraid for a while at this time.

Although his army has occupied the palace and expelled Li Fangyuan, but now Kaijing has not been beaten by him, the Kaijing garrison is the strongest elite in Korea, if it is used by Li Fangyuan or Zhongning Monarch Li Yan, Li Zhen is afraid that he can only experience the throne for a few hours.

"Mr. Song, I will appoint you as the leader of the council, command the hundred officials and all the armies, and be sure to help me sweep away the threats in Kaijing before dawn." Li Zhen said.

Song Jiucheng was stunned when he heard this, and the leader of the government was Li Chaozheng's first-class official position, and his functions were similar to those of Zaifu in the Central Plains, which directly promoted himself to the position of Li Chao's second in command!

It can be seen how much Li Zhen attaches importance to and trusts him.

But......

Is it really good for you to reuse an undercover agent like this?

……

The entire Kaijing of the Li Dynasty has been slaughtered and in chaos.

Li Zhen searched all over the palace, but did not find the shadow of Li Fangyuan, the king of Joseon, and only found a secret passage to the outside of the palace, which also made Li Zhen shocked and angry, and thought that Li Fangyuan had escaped and was preparing for a counterattack.

Urged by this sense of crisis, Li Zhen's army began to spread the scope of the search to the entire Kaijing, and Li Qiu, the prince of Zhongning, was not to be outdone, and took this opportunity to raise an army to suppress Li Zhen's rebels and seize the throne.

The Kaijing guards were not enough brains, and they were involved in this civil strife and could not get out, several armies were in a mess, seeing who killed whom, everyone was frantically looking for the Korean king Li Fangyuan, some people wanted to find him, some people wanted to kill him, and some people wanted to capture him...... Like headless flies, they rampaged through the city, killing each other in the night, which was the most chaotic day since the founding of the Li Dynasty, and even surpassed the two princely rebellions at the beginning.

No one knew that the body of the king of Joseon was already cold.

Sometimes, the dead are better used than the living.

As long as Li Fangyuan does not appear, Kaijing will not be quiet, knowing that someone will kill the rest of the people.

And the Liaodong Iron Cavalry personally led by Zhu Gaoxian advanced by leaps and bounds after conquering Changzhou, all the way to Kaijing!

……

In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Gaoxian looked at the ruined city in front of him and thought that he had come to the wrong place.

The gates were wide open, and the garrison army was gone, quiet as a dead city.

This is Li Chaojingshi?

"Lord Wang, what's the situation?" Liu Rong asked.

Zhu Gaoxian frowned slightly: "How did I know that this Kaijing is not so much the capital division of the Li Dynasty as an empty city, could it be that there is an ambush?" ”

"So what are we going to do now?" Liu Rong muttered a little.

This way to Kaijing, is it difficult to withdraw the army?

"Send a few scouts into the city to investigate and see what is going on." Zhu Gaoxian ordered.

The scouts went into the city to investigate, and only saw the dense corpses on the street, and after searching for a long time, they didn't see a living person, and finally found an old man who could breathe.

This old man is also big-hearted, there are two small pickles on the table, boiling water in the iron pot is boiling white and tender tofu, and he is humming a little tune while drinking: "After eating pickles and rolling tofu, the emperor is not as good as me~"

The scout was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself what kind of special "Nine Clans Happy Song" this was, but he didn't have time to worry about this, and stepped forward and asked: "Fellow, what is the situation, why is there corpses everywhere in this capital city, and no one cares?" ”

The old man glanced at it and said, "At first glance, you are a foreigner, don't you know anything about me?" ”

The scout said, "Hey, I really don't know, can you tell me?" ”

The old man took a sip of wine and said, "Last night, the rebels and defenders killed all night, and everyone died, or you are a foreigner, and it is not uncommon for us to have a rebellion here." ”

The scout was dumbfounded, and had no time to think about anything else, so he rode out of the city on his war horse to report it.

"Lord Wang! The defenders of Kaijing are all dead! ”

The scout said, "The city is full of the corpses of the defenders, it seems that after a bloody battle, the streets are full of corpses, and the people in the city are hiding in their houses and dare not go out, saying that there are rebels in the capital last night, and even the palace has fallen, and it has been fought all night!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian and Liu Rong glanced at each other, and they were full of emotion in their hearts, and they couldn't use raw grass to describe their feelings.

Lao Tzu rode a horse for thousands of miles from Guangning in Liaodong to Kaijing, and now you tell me that Kaijing has been fighting to the death?

Zhu Gaoxian guessed that it would be very chaotic to open the capital last night, but he didn't expect it to be so chaotic, it was also Li Chaojing's division, and there was no defender in the eye!

"Enter the city and take over Kaijing!"

……

The Liaodong army entered Kaijing, and no one stopped them, so they rushed straight into the palace.

However, in front of the palace, there was a person who was already waiting, and asked in a loud voice: "Is it the prince of Da Ming Qi?" ”

"Phew—"

Zhu Gaoxian asked the horse, "I am the king of Qi, who are you?" ”

The man bowed and saluted: "Song Jiucheng, the minister of brocade clothes, meet the prince of Qi!" ”

Song Jiucheng?

Zhu Gaoxian remembers this name, which is a hidden stake buried in North Korea by Jinyiwei, and the three generations of grandparents have been lurking for 20 years.

In North Korea's spy network, Song Jiucheng is one of the hidden piles he values the most.

"What is the situation in Kaijing now?" Zhu Gaoxian asked.

Song Jiucheng replied: "Last night, Wang Shizi Li Chu was the first to launch a mutiny, breaking through the palace, and then with Zhongning King Li Qiu, Kaijing defenders broke out in a scuffle, after a night of bloody battles, in the end Li Chu narrowly won, his army persisted to the end, Zhongning Lord Li Zhen was killed, Kaijing guard committed suicide, just the Min clan who supported him, after the bloody battle last night, the dead and wounded, and Li Zhen has less than two hundred people in his hands. ”

Zhu Gaoxian raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then where is Li Zhen now?" ”

Song Jiucheng's answer was dry: "It's dead." ”

"Dead?"

"On the surface, it was the assassin who died at the hands of Li Yan, the prince of Zhongning."

"Actually?"

Song Jiucheng said calmly: "Actually, it was the minister who killed Li Zhen. ”

Zhu Gaoxian was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "You are very good." ”

Overnight, the king of Joseon and his two sons all died in Kaeongseong, in a rebellion fueled by the Jinyi Guard, and there was no winner in this rebellion, and everyone was dead.

The only winner is Zhu Gaoxian, who is leading behind the scenes.

Without much effort, relying entirely on the spy network on the battlefield behind enemy lines, the army led by Zhu Gaoxian advanced into the Li Dynasty Kaijing.

Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend.

"What's your real name?" Zhu Gaoxian asked.

Song Jiucheng replied: "The minister in North Korea pseudonym Song Jiucheng, real name Song Jiucheng, Liaodong people, in the Hongwu Dynasty, migrated to Goguryeo, and later Goguryeo was destroyed by the Korean Taizu Li Chenggui, the minister and other family in North Korea as officials, for 20 years, except for the roster of Jinyiwei, no one knows that the Liaodong Song Jiucheng is now Song Jiucheng, the staff of the Korean Wangzifu. ”

This is said lightly, but in the past 20 years, his family has been incognito in a foreign country, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have been lurking, and now it has been passed on to the generation of Song Jiucheng, after the change of dynasty, countless hardships and tribulations.

Zhu Gaoxian pondered for a moment and said: "This king promoted you to the command of the Jinyi Guard, hereditary thousands of households, specific matters and rewards, and then make a final decision after returning to Beijing, you can follow this king to do things first." ”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and continued: "This time, there is a list of Jinyi Wei secret piles in North Korea, and when I return to Beijing, I will reward them one by one!" ”

"After twenty years of wandering, you can now go home."

"This king is here to vouch for all meritorious servants, and I will never let down any of you!"

This promotion sounds really a bit shabby, after all, Song Jiucheng went undercover to the position of the second-in-command of North Korea, and the result was only given to a Jinyi guard who commanded the affairs of the fourth rank, if it was an authentic Jinyi Wei commanding the affairs, it would be just a nominal position. The only thing that can be seen is estimated to be the iron rice bowl of hereditary thousand households.

But if you only see this level, you can only say four words.

- The pattern is smaller.

Obviously, this Jinyi Guard's commander is only a transitional position, just like the Han generals in the palace, they are the cornerstone of paving the way before the promotion. With King Qi, there is a prison cover, and the promotion is as fast as riding a rocket, and in the future, to say the least, he will be able to wear a second-grade official robe.

But Song Jiucheng doesn't care about these official positions, he only cares about what King Qi said, "You can go home".

Twenty years of lying on the bed did not let him shed a single tear, but now his eyes were moist and tears flowed.

We can go home!

Song Jiucheng could go back, but his father, his grandfather, and the Jinyiwei brothers who were buried in North Korea could never go back.

Their corpses have been left in a foreign country forever, and they are looking in the direction of Daming until they die.

Zhu Gaoxian was silent for a while and waved his hand to Lu Chaoyang.

Lu Chaoyang walked over, bowed down and asked, "Lord Wang, what do you command?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian asked: "Check according to the roster of Jinyiwei in North Korea, find all the Jinyiwei who died in North Korea as much as possible, collect their remains, and bring them back to Liaodong for burial." ”

This is a big project, after all, many of Jinyiwei's hidden piles in North Korea have been here for 20 years, and it is not easy to collect the remains after the passage of time.

However, as long as you want to do it, there is always a way.

North Korea will soon become the province of Goryeo of the Ming Dynasty, whether it is ten years or twenty years, find a pair of remains and bury a pair.

Song Jiucheng said loudly: "The minister is the secretary of Jinyiwei who has all the hidden stakes in North Korea, thank you for the kindness of Prince Qi!" ”

These people are already walking dead, and they have nothing else to do in this world, but occasionally look in the direction of Daming, hoping to be able to bury their bodies in that land after death.

Don't seek the scenery of life, but hope that the soul will return to his hometown.

Fame and fortune are just a handful of dust and sand after all, but this handful of dust and sand is also drifting away in the direction of Daming.

……

The first thing Zhu Gaoxian did after the occupation of Kaijing was to tamper with history.

In this regard, Zhu Gaoxian has already come to his fingertips, he has already tampered with the history of the Jurchens when he founded the state, and he is very experienced in this.

"In the thirteenth year of Yongle, Wang Shizi Li Zhen and the Min clan launched a mutiny in the middle of the night, invaded the palace, and slaughtered unscrupulously, and the king of Joseon, Li Fangyuan, was unfortunately killed, and sent a secret letter to the Ming Dynasty for help before his death. Zhongning Maharaja Li Yan took the opportunity to rebel and tried to seize the throne, and the two fought each other, and finally this mutiny ended in Li Chun's victory. ”

Zhu Gaoxian pondered and said, "After Li Zhen entered Kaijing, he began to slaughter his fellow clans and killed all the royal family members of the Li Dynasty. The Liaodong army of the Ming Dynasty immediately sent troops to support Kaijing after receiving a letter of help from Li Fangyuan, the king of Joseon, and Li Zhen committed suicide in fear of crime after learning that the Ming army was approaching the city. ”

"By the time the Liaodong Army entered Kaijing, it was already late, the entire Kaijing City was lifeless, the royal family of the Li Dynasty was all dead, and the king of Joseon, Li Fangyuan Mingrui, foresaw this scene before his death, and put North Korea under the management of the Ming Dynasty in his will, so as to ensure that North Korea would not fall into chaos."

"Zhu Gaoxian, the king of Qi, approved the will with a sad heart and took over North Korea in the name of justice."

"According to the will of the king of Joseon, those who refuse to surrender to the Ming Dynasty are traitors, rebels Li Chun or Li Qiu's comrades, and a disgrace to the Koreans! Damn it! ”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxian looked at Lu Chaoyang: "Old Lu, do you think it is reasonable to tamper with the history of the Li Dynasty like this?" ”

Tampering with history is such a thing, King Qi is really easy to do!

You changed the fratricidal killing of the royal family of the Li Dynasty to the end, and changed yourself to a saint, can you make a face!

Zhu Gaoxian didn't know what Lu Chaoyang was thinking, he was very satisfied with the history he had tampered with, and said: "Okay, then let's do it, you write out what I just said, publish and spread it all over North Korea, let them know that the Ming Dynasty is a great and friendly army, helped them quell the rebellion, and by the way, helped them stabilize their post-war work, well, our Ming is really friendly." ”

The first step in fooling people is to fool themselves, regardless of whether others believe it or not, anyway, Zhu Gaoxian himself believes it.

His eyes gradually became cold: "At the same time, let the Liaodong Army take over the armies of all parts of Korea, and kill anyone who disobeys!" ”

This is Zhu Gaoxian's usual trick.

If you want to tame a country, the first thing you have to do is to reason with the banner and fool them, so that you can manage domestication more easily.

And the second thing is to break the limbs of this country!

When he becomes a cripple, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he can only obediently listen to you to brainwash.

First literature and then martial arts, first justifiable, and then send troops to suppress!

Before Zhu Gaoxian turned Korea into Han, he first had to control the land militarily and put a knife on the other party's neck, and the other party would naturally accept the brainwashing very cooperatively.

And those who don't cooperate, just let them disappear.
