The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 548 Renxing Jun

Seeing that the point of the knife was only three inches away from Dai Xiuyuan's neck, Cui Minhou's general beside him glanced at him, and immediately exclaimed: "Stop!"

He carefully looked at Dai Xiuyuan's clothes, and slapped the soldier on the head, "Idiot! This is an envoy! If he dies because of our assassination, he will definitely cause big trouble to the Lord!"

The officer saw that the blood was still gushing out from Mingshi's body, he quickly threw his weapon to help him up, frowned and said urgently: "He should be in the building at this time, why did he come here after him, but please don't let him go." What's the matter..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a click, and looked down, but saw a carved letter box fall from Dai Xiuyuan's body. The wax on the letter box had cracked, probably because it was shaken away by the explosion just now.

He ordered the two soldiers beside him: "Quickly bandage the envoy's wound!" Then he carefully picked up the letter box, and saw a touch of golden yellow inside from the opening.

Seeing that Dai Xiuyuan was still in a coma, Cui Minhou's generals took out the contents of the letter box with two fingers. It was a brocade cloth.

He pushed away the soldiers who were about to stop Dai Xiuyuan's bleeding, took out the herbs and bandages that he carried with him, and said excitedly to himself: "Must make Mingshi safe..."

After the wound was treated, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise there would be such a long gash under the rib, and the blood would drain out in no time."

On the other side, a loud noise was heard in the southern suburbs of Seoul, and troops were hurriedly sent to respond.Since the Heaven Worshiping Team only traveled about four miles, nearly [-] Imperial Army soldiers arrived in a short while, first let Li Zhen and others pass, and then put out their bows, arrows, and matchlock guns to shoot at Cui Minhou who was chasing him.

Cui Minhou was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and seeing that nearly half of the soldiers around him were dead or injured, he had no choice but to order them to retreat.

When he ran back to the assassination site, there was already a responder waiting there with a horse. He was about to get on the horse, but he was grabbed by his subordinates, "My lord, look what this is!"

Cui Minhou took the yellow brocade in doubt and glanced at it, his hands trembling with excitement, "It turns out that Daming already knew that Li Jing was going to send the navy to the Hulu! With this letter of pardon, the lord will surely accomplish great things! "

He hurriedly turned to the lieutenant general, "Where did this thing come from?"

"It was brought by the envoy with him."

Cui Minhou glanced at Dai Xiuyuan, and saw the burning carriage beside him due to the explosion. He frowned and thought for a while, then gave a few words in the lieutenant's ear, then stuffed the letter of pardon into his arms, got on his horse and galloped away.

After Li Zhen managed to catch his breath, he looked around and jumped up immediately, "Where is Angel Dai?! Quick! Send someone to protect Angel Dai. If something happens to him, it will all be over... go!"

Jin Zaichun hurriedly ordered [-] forbidden troops to search all the way back, but unexpectedly the assassin who had just turned around and fled turned back and resisted desperately. It was not until half an hour later that he finally found Dai Xiuyuan.At this time, Cui Minhou had already run away for nearly twenty miles with the letter of pardon.

Jin Zaichun glanced at the bandages on Mingshi's body, handled it very carefully, he couldn't help but let out a long breath, and ordered his subordinates to carry him back to Seoul.

Dai Xiuyuan didn't wake up until noon the next day. He cleared his mind first, looked down and saw that he had changed clothes, and hurriedly asked the accompanying guards: "Where are my belongings?"

"My lord, they are all here."

Dai Xiuyuan rummaged through the objects brought over by his servants, but he couldn't find the pardon letter. He also asked people to ask the Korean Imperial Army who brought it back, but still no one saw it.

Holding back the pain, he personally took people back to search for the place where the explosion happened yesterday.Soon, a guard found a small piece of carved wood beside the charred wreckage of the chariot.

Dai Xiuyuan was very familiar with this pattern, it was the letter box containing the letter of pardon, he hurriedly ordered to continue searching, but only found a pile of ashes.

After returning to the building, Dai Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a little worried. If the pardon was burned, he could only use his own mouth to reprimand Li Zhen, but the effect would be greatly reduced.

After dinner, he was thinking about how he could convince Li Zhen to refuse Jianlu's request to send warships tomorrow, so a guard came to report that someone in the Korean palace asked to see him.

"Please come in."

The person who came was an unremarkable eunuch. He first said His Majesty Fan's greetings, and then whispered: "Boldly ask the angels to stand back, and I have something important to tell you."

When the servants in the room left, Dai Xiuyuan said: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Does the angel know that Li Zhen has promised the Hulu that he will send a navy south to fight against Ming?"

Dai Xiuyuan frowned slightly, this eunuch actually called their king by his name?

"I know a thing or two. But I am also sure that your king will take back his order."

"I'm afraid the angel will be disappointed." The eunuch stepped forward and said in a mysterious tone, "The captives sent secret envoys here. As far as I know, they promised Li Yan that as long as they agreed to send a navy to help the battle, they would send his two sons Give it back to him."

Prince of Korea?Dorgon paid a lot of money!Dai Xiuyuan was secretly startled, no wonder Li Tan was evasive towards me, it turned out that he had already made up his mind to accept Jianlu's conditions!Not to mention that the pardon was destroyed, it seems that even if he took out the pardon this time, he might not look back.

Seeing his expression, the eunuch smiled again and said, "Li Ji is determined to betray Daming, the master of the slaves despises him, and is determined to help the Celestial Dynasty, so the navy cannot be sent south!"

"Your lord? Isn't your lord the current king of North Korea?"

"Back to the angels, servants serve Lord Ren Xing."

Ren Xingjun?Li Ying?Dai Xiuyuan thought to himself, isn't this the younger brother of the former king of Joseon, Gwanghae-jun?Li Jing launched a coup to drive Guang Haijun from power and imprisoned him on a deserted island, and became king himself.Li Ying's people are so disrespectful to Li Ying's words, what exactly does he want to do?But at the moment, stabilizing the North Korean navy is the top priority. If Li Ying can accomplish this, it would be great.

"Mr. Renxing, can you be sure?"

"Returning to the angel, Zheng Wancheng, the envoy of the Right Water of Jeolla Province, is the Lord's confidant. Mr. Zheng has made an agreement with his subordinates that after the warships of the three naval divisions meet in Jeolla Province, he will set fire to the harbor and decide not to let him go." Slabs go south!"

Dai Xiuyuan's heart shuddered, this Li Ying was decisive enough!In order to prevent Li Yu from taking captives, he did not hesitate to burn the North Korean navy!
He looked at the eunuch, and said slowly: "What request does Mr. Renxing have?"

"Don't dare to ask for anything." The eunuch hurriedly said, "As long as the heavenly court knows that the lord is loyal and bright, and that Li Yu is hooking up with the barbarians, that's all the lord wishes for!"

Although Dai Xiuyuan felt that there must be something strange in it, he still nodded and said: "I will definitely report this matter to the Ming court and reward Renxing Jun for his righteousness."

"My servant thanked the angel for his kindness on behalf of the Lord."

After saying this, the eunuch was about to leave, but Dai Xiuyuan suddenly thought of something, called him back and asked: "Since Lord Ren Xing is loyal to Daming, and the Right Water Envoy of Quanluo Dao is his confidant, then Mr. Zheng will not follow him." captive?"
