The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 123

Zhu Linmi was a little dazed for a moment, without him stopping Huang Daozhou's Northern Expedition, Long Wu would not have gone to Shanghang, so at this time, she had already rescued Long Wu in Changting...

History has simply turned into a weird cycle.

Perhaps, the butterfly wings that have influenced the course of history are the source of all changes.

However, all this is not important anymore.

With Long Wu's death, the entire Ming Dynasty will be in turmoil again.In this era when the whole world respects imperial power, the death of the emperor will definitely cause violent turmoil in the current situation.

Especially now that the enemy is more likely to do so.The Qing army is raging in Fujian. In history, Fujian has collapsed immediately after Longwu's death. This situation must not be allowed to happen again.

There was no time to feel sad and angry about Long Wu's death. Zhu Linmi suddenly realized that the most important thing right now is to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, so as to avoid the powerful inertia of history from erasing all previous efforts and return to Jianlu to seize the world. Go up the old trajectory.

He was thinking about how to proceed when he heard Huang Daozhou shouting to the surrounding soldiers, "Gather all the people within twenty feet of the surrounding area here, without my permission, no one is allowed to leave this place for half a step!

"Besides, Jiang Zongbing was seriously injured and unconscious just now, and he couldn't speak clearly. Anyone who dares to spread the few words he heard to disturb my people's hearts will definitely be punished!"

"Obey!" The surrounding soldiers responded in unison.

Zhu Linmei nodded secretly. Not many people heard Jiang Zhengxi's words just now. In this era, the news is not smooth. As long as it is deliberately blocked, it will be difficult to spread out of Changting City within two or three months.

Another maid came to carry Empress Zeng into the mansion, and after working for a long time, she woke up slowly, glanced at the expressions of everyone, and immediately realized that it was not a dream.

She pushed the maid away forcefully, trying to struggle to get up, but her feet went limp and she fell down in front of Zhu Linmi.But she didn't care about it at all, and only cried out: "King Chen! You must take the Holy One back!" Seeing this, the maid at the side hurried up to help.

Zhu Linmei was taken aback, and hurriedly took two steps to the side, "His Royal Highness, please take care. You and the prince should be the most important thing in the current situation. I will escort you to Jiangxi first, and go after returning..."

Empress Zeng shook her head when she heard the words, and said very resolutely: "Your Majesty's soul will not be at peace, and your body will not be buried in the ground, so the prince and I will not go anywhere!"

Zhu Lin was stunned for a moment. Although he knew that the ancients had great respect for the dead, he never expected it to be so extreme.

He was about to persuade him again, but Huang Daozhou also cupped his hands with Zhu Linming and said: "The old minister knows that His Highness is thinking about the country, but even if he is thinking about the country, he should take back the remains of the Holy One first."

Zhu Linmei immediately reacted, "Huang Ge always said that this is the only way to block the news?"

"This is one of them." Huang Daozhou nodded and said, "Let Jian Nu hold the bones of the Holy One to humiliate and not take them back, it will show the weakness of our Ming Dynasty. If the country is weak, the people will be suspicious and the world will be chaotic. This is the second. In the future, the Holy One will be captured The corpse threatens the imperial court, even if it doesn’t make me hamstrung everywhere, it will definitely demand a price, then I will be loyal and filial, I can only bear with it, the third is.”

It was only then that Zhu Linming realized that there were so many links in a corpse, Huang Daozhou was indeed farther ahead than she thought.

He immediately nodded and said: "Then I will stop the captives and take back His Majesty's remains!"

Empress Zeng stood up with the help of the maid, although her feet were still swaying, she was still sincere to Zhu Lin.

Zhu Linmi didn't delay anymore, and left [-] hussars for Zheng Chenggong, took the young eunuch who came back with Jiang Zhengxi, and hurriedly led the rest of the troops out of the city.

"General, don't hesitate any longer."

Chang Yongnian frowned, and tapped on the table with two fingers.Ma Zhong is his confidant who he relies on as a think tank, and he always obeys his advice.

But this time he just stared at the table and never spoke, as if the answer was hidden in the wood grain of the table.

Ma Zhong lowered his voice and said eagerly: "When the emperor was still alive, the court was controlled by the Zheng family and applauded. Now that the Zheng family has surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Ming emperor has collapsed. Although there is a prince, he is still in his infancy. From what I can see, Fujing will change hands in less than three months.”

Chang Yongnian hesitated and said: "Even if Fujing falls, Daming still has Jiangxi, Huguang, Guangdong and other places, then King Chen's command is very powerful. If the captive army declines in the future, I will not be helpless?"

"What the general said is wrong. First of all, Fujing is the seat of the Ming court. If this place is lost, the court situation will be in chaos. The Eastern Army will surely take over Jiangxi and Guangdong in one fell swoop, and the world will be at peace.

"Even if we take a step back and say that the Ming Dynasty really guarded Jiangxi, Huguang's surname is He, and Liangguang's surname is Ding. There is only one little emperor who is not yet one year old, and even if you add the young king Chen who has just reached the weak crown, what can you do in a corner of Jiangxi?" As? It was just destroyed a few years later."

"General, if you think about it, you can hang out under Jiang Zhengxi for a few more years, at most you can only be a general." Ma Zhong looked towards the direction of the government office, "and enshrine the prince of Ming Dynasty to the Qing court. Even if he is not a marquis, at least one earl will not be able to escape of."

"How can you be sure that the soldiers below have no second thoughts?" Chang Yongnian asked again.

"There is no need to tell ordinary soldiers about this matter." Ma Zhong smiled triumphantly, "The general only needs to send his confidantes to contact the Qing army, make an appointment, and open the city gate to let them in. At that time, the general situation will be completed, and the general only needs to climb up for a while." Huh, who dares not follow?"

Chang Yongnian's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "According to what you said, then the surrender?"

Seeing that he was already tempted, Ma Zhong hit the iron road while it was hot: "Now is a good opportunity from God. If it weren't for the King Chen leaving the city and relying on his subordinates to fight hard, even if he wanted to make troubles, he would not be able to surpass the sky. If God doesn't take it, he will be blamed instead. General."

Chang Yongnian finally nodded, and slapped the table hard, "Okay! Then I will accept this gift from God!" He said loyally to Ma, "Go and call Li Xi, Guo Pengyi, and Lian Ming. Remember to be careful and secretive!"

"Yes!"

After staying for an hour, several people came out of Chang Yongnian's room, dressed as grooms, quietly opened the city gate, and scattered away on horseback.

Chang Yongnian waited for all his confidants to leave, and then went back to the government office, planning to replace the guards of the government office with his own.As soon as he passed the Yimen Gate, he saw Zheng Chenggong and Huang Daozhou discussing matters under the eaves.

Zheng Chenggong turned his head and saw him coming, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "General Chang came just in time, and the general will have a plan to get rid of the trouble of thieves outside Changting City, and I am discussing with Elder Huang Ge."

Chang Yongnian frowned, and walked over, "What is the general's plan?"

Zheng Chenggong said: "The king of Chen asserted before that the captives must pretend to be the Ming army to deceive the city. If I just drive them away, the thieves will find opportunities to come again, and the city will never be safe.

"The last thing the general thinks is not to follow the plan. First, set up an ambush in the city, and then pretend that he didn't know the captives, and let them in. Then close the city gates, and the ambushes go out everywhere, and the thieves will be wiped out in one fell swoop! What does the general think? ?”
