He didn't care about Zhu Qizhen's words in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be extremely moved and said, "Where is the subject who saved the emperor, it is clear that the emperor was blessed by heaven, which led the ministers and others to rush Just come."
What he said again was that Zhu Qizhen was smiling happily, and the expression of fear just now seemed to have relaxed a lot.
"Your Majesty, I just said that I was guilty because I was afraid of death, so when I went out this time, I spent a lot of money to invite this foreign mercenary. They only recognize money but not people. In their eyes, there is nothing The difference between countries and regions is that whoever can pay them money will give their lives to whom. The emperor also knows that ministers are not short of money. I did this for safety. But I didn’t report it to you in advance. The emperor knows that this is also a crime."
There is a high-sounding opportunity to reveal the identities of Xiao Feng and others to Zhu Qizhen. As long as he knows, this matter will be legalized.
Sure enough, when Zhu Qizhen heard this, he nodded as if he understood, "Okay, it's better for Yang Aiqing to plan ahead, but I just don't know how powerful they are, how much is the cost?"
Not only Zhu Qizhen thought this way, but also several other ministers were very curious.After seeing the power of this mercenary army, they wanted to know the price.
In fact, Zhu Qizhen was most concerned about him. Although he hadn't seen him in person, he must be able to come to him in the midst of the chaos.Then if everyone can hire such a powerful army, doesn't it mean that they have the capital to rebel?How could he not pay attention?
Feeling that everyone was looking at him, Yang Chendong said with a smile: "Your Majesty. Coincidentally, they were not the people I hired at first, but the overseas barbarians who did business with me. Tian Trading Company is in charge of delivering the goods. I met them just in time to catch up with the army, so I negotiated with them and asked them to protect my safety this time at a price of 1 taels per person. If it wasn’t such a coincidence , I want to invite them directly from overseas, I'm afraid they won't appreciate this little money."
One person is 1 taels, and 100 people equals 100 million taels.
It was also said that it was this little money, and Kuang Ye and Wang Zuo couldn't help but gasped after hearing this.
Especially Wang Zuo, as the Minister of the Household Department, has a clearer understanding of Daming's silver, and the value of the silver that passes through his hands every year is also very huge.But even he was taken aback when he heard the price, let alone the other important ministers.
This answer also shocked Zhu Qizhen into a cold sweat. One million taels of silver is just to protect his own safety, this Yang Chendong is really too rich.Of course, he is the only one in the Manchu Dynasty who can afford this price.After all, whether it is Shenxianju or Tianwaitian, a lot of money pours into it every day.
The same answer made Zhu Qizhen heave a sigh of relief.The higher the price the mercenary needs, the more he will feel at ease, which also shows that not everyone is capable of recruiting this army and accomplishing great things to threaten himself.
While the few people were talking, Humang walked up to Yang Chendong, "Young master, except for General Fan Zhong who was slightly injured, all the other tigers and beijing were injured."
No matter what, Humang didn't continue to talk, but his constant shaking of his head had already explained everything.
Hearing the result, Yang Chendong didn't make any decision, but set his sights on Zhu Qizhen, as if you are the emperor and you should be the master.
"Forget it, let them go. After returning to the palace, I will reward their families. As for what to do next? Yang Aiqing, and all the aiqings, what are your ideas?" Zhu Qizhen was very satisfied with Yang Chendong's attitude, But at this moment, he really couldn't come up with any ideas. After the army was defeated, his mind was already in a mess.
They said they were asking the important officials, but in fact, everyone's eyes fell on Yang Chendong. Obviously, they had no idea for a while.With enemies on all sides, no way out seems safe.
Since it was up to him to make up his own mind, Yang Chendong was not polite, he knew that the longer he stayed here, the greater the danger.Before, it was because all the Oirat cavalry were wiped out, so no news spread, but once the Oirat army knew his whereabouts, once the army came under pressure, the danger still existed because he only had a hundred people.
"Okay, since the emperor has entrusted the important task to the minister, the minister will put forward his own suggestion. Our current location is naturally the closest to Huailai County, but it is also the most dangerous place, and Wala will definitely guard against us. There are heavy troops there. Then we might as well do the opposite and go to Yuzhou." Yang Chendong showed a confident look, in fact, this was what he had planned before.
"That's right, surprise by surprise, attack by surprise. The law of war says that what is true is true, and what is true is false. No one would have thought that we would go to Weizhou." After hearing Yang Chendong's suggestion, Kuang Ye, Minister of the Ministry of War, said: Immediate support was given.
Yang Chendong and Kuang Ye, who knew the art of war, had the same opinion, and Zhu Qizhen was determined, "Okay, then let's go to Yuzhou." After speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.But he was stopped by Yang Chendong.
"What is Yang Aiqing's meaning?" Zhu Qizhen's face changed drastically. He was afraid that this person would have some evil intentions towards him now. If so, there would only be General Fan Zhong who was still injured, and he might not be able to protect himself at all. .
"Yang Chendong, what are you going to do?" Fan Zhong stepped forward with a hammer in his hand, with a questioning attitude.But before he could get close, Humang, Yang Er, and Yang Wu had already surrounded him in three directions, and it was guaranteed that if he took a step forward, he would surely fall to the ground and die with blood spattering five feet.
The situation suddenly became tense, and Yang Chendong hurriedly gave the three of Humang a retreating wink, and then half-kneeled in front of Zhu Qizhen, "Your Majesty, I have no other intentions, but if you want to escape, your majesty will You must change your clothes."
"Change clothes? Why?" Zhu Qizhen looked puzzled.
"Your Majesty, wearing a yellow robe can easily attract the attention of others, and it can also easily attract the pursuit of the Oirat cavalry." Yang Chendong scolded the opponent's pig's head in his heart, and on the surface he was indeed admonishing him.
"Oh!" At this moment, Zhu Qizhen came to his senses and nodded, "That's right, what Yang Aiqing said is true, that's it, I just took off my yellow robe."
"Yes, the emperor not only wants to take off the imperial robe, but also put it on for others to confuse the enemy's attention." Yang Chendong's words fell, but he was shocked that Kuang Ye and other nine courtiers were very nervous.They first looked at each other, and then slowly lowered their heads one by one.
The reactions of these people fell into the eyes of Yang Chendong and Zhu Qizhen, and the latter naturally looked unhappy.The former lowered his head and smiled, and when he raised his head, he had already recovered his seriousness, "Your Majesty, you can put the yellow robe on the dead Hu Ben who is similar in stature to yours, so as to create a false appearance and confuse the enemy."
Hearing that the dead were going to be dressed, Kuang Ye and others raised their heads one by one, and their faces returned to their natural state.Zhu Qizhen said with a sudden realization: "Yes, what Yang Aiqing said is true, so that the Oirat army thinks that I have ascended to the sky, so that no one will come to chase us."
Chapter 1 Forty
"The emperor is holy." Yang Chendong, including several important ministers, knelt on the ground at this moment, with a complimenting expression on their faces.
"Hahaha, all ministers please, I'll just take off my clothes." Zhu Qizhen seemed to have found the feeling of being an emperor again, laughing, and took off his yellow robe.
Soon a figure similar to Zhu Qizhen's, the most important thing is that his face was slashed several times, and the already unrecognizable Huben was sent in front of everyone.Everyone worked together, and after changing the yellow robes on the body of the deceased, they identified the direction of Weizhou and hurried away.
Just over an hour after they left, a group of Oirat cavalry with a number of about [-] rushed over.Among them was a father-in-law wearing a eunuch uniform. This person was Xining, and he was considered an important member of the eunuch group.
Xining came out with the army and was in chaos. He was unfortunately caught by the Oirat cavalry while he was running around. When he was about to hack him to death, he shouted out his identity and said that he could help the Oirat army find Ming Yingzong , In this way, the great tomorrow is at your fingertips.
The charm of Xining's words was too great, and when he was heard by the Wala general Wang Saikan who was holding him, he couldn't help but be moved.He didn't kill him, but took him all the way to search for news about Zhu Qizhen in the chaos.
This team of people is headed by Saikan Wang, and Xining is among them.When they came to this chaotic place, the bright yellow robes were immediately noticed by everyone. Xining got off the horse and went to the unrecognizable corpse and carefully paved it. With Zhu Qizhen's waistband, he immediately said with great joy: "General, this is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but he is already dead."
"Dead! Hey." Hearing Zhu Qizhen's death, King Saikan couldn't help showing a trace of hatred on his face. Obviously, a dead person really doesn't have any effect on him.
Noticing the disappointment of King Saikan, Xining, who was afraid of losing his life, rolled his eyes and said immediately: "General, although the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is dead, we still have the jade pendant, so we can still do something." Presumably the news of this chaos will definitely make the Ming army panic, and if you can take advantage of this opportunity, you may be able to break into the capital. You are familiar with it, there are countless gold, silver, treasures and beauties."
Speaking of the prosperity of the capital, how could King Saikan, as a former envoy, not know about it?Immediately, his face changed from worry to joy and said: "Yes, yes, let's go, you follow me to meet the leader, we are going to attack the Ming capital, hahaha."
The waist pendant was left on purpose by Zhu Qizhen, saying that it was to create a more realistic fact, but unexpectedly it came in handy and became an identification of his identity.At this time, the Great Ming Yingzong, who had changed into a tiger's clothing, was heading towards Weizhou, Shanxi from the periphery of Tumubao with Yang Chendong and his party.
Even if he didn't choose to walk in his arms, he still encountered two cavalry teams from Wala.
The cavalry, each with a hundred men, was like a live target as soon as they encountered the cold front. Before they could see what lineup was here and who was there, they were all shot dead from a distance.
This is also the first time that Zhu Qizhen saw the strength of Leng Feng at close range, and he was terrified for a while.But thinking that they are now for their own use, I can't help but feel relieved.
After having more healthy horses and finding more food from these Oirat cavalry, everyone started to speed up after eating and drinking, and headed straight for Weizhou regardless of day or night.
Xining was brought by King Saikan to his elder brother, Yexian, who was also the leader of Wala.
Yexian is tall and tall, with a sense of superiority without anger and prestige in his eyes. His eyes are deep and sharp. When he looks at Xining, his heart beats with fright.
"You said it belonged to your Emperor Ming?" Ye Xian asked casually while playing with the expensive waistband in his hand.
"Yes, yes, sir, this is the property of Emperor Ming. He has been killed by the brave Wala cavalry." Xining knelt down on the ground, completely like a slave.After saying this, he was afraid that the other party would not believe him, so he continued to add: "The young one was originally a eunuch walking beside Emperor Ming, so naturally he would not admit his mistake. Also, the young one was originally a Jurchen, not a Han. I had long expected Lead the army to crush Daming and repeat the glory of our grassland people."
Xi Ning is really afraid of dying, what to say at this moment, he is afraid that he will be unhappy and kill himself first.
"Yeah." Xining's statement made him believe him first. "It's Emperor Ming's death. Do you think their capital is messed up now?"
Previously, Tuo Geer, the captain of King Saikan's bodyguard, angered Yang Chendong, and as a result, all the secret agents of the Wara Department in the Ming Dynasty were exposed and died.If he wanted to know about Daming's situation, he could only ask the little eunuch in front of him, a hermaphrodite.
What Xining is afraid of is that he will kill himself without asking anything, and then he will not be able to show his value.It's good now, as long as the other party is willing to ask himself, it will prove that he is useful, so life will be worry-free.In order to better express himself and show his importance, he knelt down and analyzed: "My lord, the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty is the emperor, the size of the royal family is beyond our imagination. Even if the current emperor dies, they can introduce a new emperor at any time."
"What?" Xining's answer made Ye Xian very dissatisfied. "Looking at it this way, doesn't it mean that it is useless for us to kill Emperor Ming?"
"No, no, it's not like that." Xining shook her head like a drum. "Although it shows that the royal family is very large, it is not difficult to elect an emperor. However, it is difficult for a new emperor to gain power in a short period of time after taking office, and this is our opportunity. Therefore, we cannot pass the news that Emperor Ming is dead. Announce it immediately. If this happens, it will only give the other party more time to prepare. We can march to the capital first, and when the soldiers are approaching the city, we will announce the news of Emperor Ming's death. Emperor, it is also difficult to form any resistance. At that time, under the alternation of the old and new regimes, there must be chaos. In this way, we can overwhelm the city with a large army. At that time, the younger ones will lobby my friends well, maybe we can He opened the city gate without bloodshed, and completely entered the important area of the capital."
Zhu Qizhen is dead, and for Xining, he has no hope.Even if he can return to the capital safe and sound now, and change the emperor, how can he still trust him like Yingzong?
Perhaps the other eunuchs were eager to kill themselves.Now that there is no way out, he might as well vote for Wala. With his contribution to counseling, once Wala succeeds, he might be able to become a powerful eunuch like Wang Zhen.
At this moment, Xining seemed to see the bright light of the future.In order to achieve this goal, he really tried his best to plan first.
