No one expected that Daming, who seemed to be in a good situation just now, would suddenly have such a change.

There was no warning of the Yan family's uprising, no one expected this at all, and even in today's Ming Dynasty, Zhejiang is already peaceful.

So much so that in the defenselessness, most of the entire Zhejiang has fallen in a short period of time.

The remaining prefectures, anyone with a discerning eye can see, will not last long at all, and maybe even have fallen now, but the messenger is still on the way and has not arrived in Beijing.

After escaping their consternation, the courtiers were in a state of flux.

The emperor on the dragon chair also quickly recovered from his surprise, and after confirming that the news was true, he did not speak, but just stared at the ministers below.

Perhaps because of his age, this time he did not vent as wantonly as before, but glanced at the ministers below with a slightly ghostly eyes.

There was silence in the court for a quarter of an hour.

As time passed, the courtiers lowered their heads one by one, bent their bodies, and faced the silent scene and the pressure on their faces, and sweat slipped from their foreheads.

This silent silence is more terrifying than the screaming of anger.

The Emperor finally spoke.

He sneered:

"Yue Guogong, he is indeed a good courtier of mine. I had just rewarded him with such a rebellious act. ”

Although the matter was in Ningbo, as the head of the family, Yan Yinghui, the Duke of Yueguo, could not escape the blame, and even Emperor Wuxing suspected that this was what Yan Yinghui planned.

His words also caused the courtiers below to slander: such a great achievement in defending Nanjing, there is only a small reward of gold and silver for land production, which is actually called a heavy reward? Is it good to reward the merit!

The Emperor did not know what his courtiers were thinking, and he continued, his voice cold and containing endless anger:

"There is such a rebellious act, not to capture him to the capital division, so that he repents of his mistakes in front of the Jingping Wang Temple, and then Ling Chi in the market, the head is passed on the nine sides, not enough to calm my anger, not enough to show the majesty of the court!"

"And the important financial and tax areas in Jiangsu and Zhejiang should also be recaptured as soon as possible, and they should not fall into the hands of the enemy for a long time."

"Ladies and gentlemen, who can be the handsome?"

The best candidates are naturally Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng. These two have almost never lost since they became famous, and they have become the "reassuring pills" of the Ming Dynasty.

However, Lu Xiangsheng fought Wang Er in Henan, and on the other hand, he had to command the rest of the generals to encircle and suppress the rebellion in Huguang and Jiangxi, while Hong Chengchou guarded the border areas of Shaanxi and Jin, resisting the increasingly rampant grassland tribes in the north on the one hand, and running the two provinces on the other hand, deterring the rogues who wanted to go back.

Neither of these "firefighters" could leave.

So no one continued to recommend it.

It stands to reason that there is no shortage of strong generals in the Ming Dynasty, but the problem is that if the generals they recommend are defeated, then they will not escape the blame, and they will be jointly and severally responsible.

As soon as they thought of this, everyone immediately coaxed, not seeking no success, but seeking no fault.

This led to the fact that for a while, all the ministers did not speak. And with the silence, Emperor Wuxing's eyes gradually became a little sharp.

Apparently, a storm was brewing inside him.

After a moment of silence, the military department Shangshu finally stood up and said tremblingly:

"Jiangxi General Zuo Liangyu may be subject to this heavy responsibility."

Zuo Liangyu was originally a general in the important town of the Nine Sides, but he was transferred to fight against him because the scourge of the southern bandits was getting worse. Although he also suffered several defeats when encircling and suppressing the rebels, he defeated Zhang Xianzhong this time, which has proved his ability, with a total strength of more than 10,000 people, some of which are elite soldiers who followed him from the north.

So this suggestion was actually quite reliable, and it was quickly approved by most people, including the emperor.

And so the matter was settled.

Although the Yan family's uprising was very sudden and had already occupied most of Zhejiang, everyone was not particularly worried.

After all, it's not terrible to sit on the coward, but it's the rogue that is terrible.

Compared with the characteristics of the Liukou, which is highly mobile, difficult to catch up, and causes great damage wherever they pass, although the Zakou has a tax-paying population in one place, it seems to be more powerful, but how can it compete with the rich imperial court in one place?

As strong as Wang Er, even Luoyang was difficult to resist his edge when Bingfeng was at its peak, but now it is different in Nanyang, and he is almost powerless to resist in the face of Lu Xiangsheng's army?

In the eyes of everyone, this is just an ignorant family blinded by ambition and wanting to take advantage of the troubled times to covet the throne, and they do not understand the power of the imperial court.

may be arrogant for a while, but pacification is a matter of time, a good general like Zuo Liangyu, with more than 10,000 elites under his command, is enough, this is still for the sake of Lin Xiao, who has surrendered to the enemy, is a "strong general".

The Emperor spoke again, and he announced in a loud voice:

"Take the title of Duke of Yan Yinghui Yueguo, and all honors and rewards, and copy his family!"

"Nanjing Jinyiwei arrested him."

However, for the latter, Emperor Wuxing did not have much hope.

Since the other party dared to make trouble, then he must be prepared, and Yan Yinghui has probably escaped from Nanjing City now.

……

The news of the rebellion in the southeast really shocked the world.

No one expected that the descendant of one of the seven founding princes would once again raise the banner of righteousness in this troubled world.

It is necessary to know that today's family is located in the southeast, and has an extraordinary influence in the whole world, and Yan Ling is because of its several miraculous places, and has its temples in many areas of the Ming Dynasty, which is worshiped by the world.

But now, it's ......

Many people can't help but start thinking.

Could it be that today's imperial court has really lost its last breath?

Henan.

In the camp of the Ming army under Nanyang City.

Lu Xiangsheng, the military supervisor of the prime minister's three provinces, walked out of his commander's tent, and in front of him was the ruined Nanyang City.

Although the extermination of Wang Er's rebels was just around the corner, he did not have the slightest joy in his heart at this time, and even a little heavy.

"Southeastern Rebellion ......"

He muttered softly, looking up at the starry sky.

He once swore in front of that temple that he would enter the army as a Confucian like the person in front of him, assist the emperor, and stabilize the world.

Yan Keng and Yan Chenhao are also the objects of his worship.

But now, how can it be......

"Could it be that this world has really ......"

He muttered, a moment of distraction in his eyes.

He just stood in the autumn wind of October, only feeling the chill in his heart.
