Yang Yipeng, the left minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of Revenue and the Right Censor, and the Governor of the Grain Transport and the Governor of the Four Prefectures of Jiangbei, died for his country!

When the news came back to the capital, Wang Yingxiong collapsed in a chair and said nothing for a long time.

He knew that if he continued to hide it for his mentor, expel him, and dismissal from office and delisting, it would be considered light. When the emperor was angry, he would probably kill him.

This matter will not be hidden for long, and he does not have the ability to ensure that his mentor will not die.

However, he values ​​affection and righteousness so much. Even though he knows that he cannot do it, he is still trying his best to find a way.

Historically, he was dismissed from office because of protecting his mentor.

Now it seems that he will not be allowed to be an official, because his mentor is dead, so there is no need for him to cover up any more.

This is entirely for him. In order to protect his future, the teacher actually chose to die!

His heart really hurts.

The next day, he was bedridden and could not get up.

In the court, most people knew what was going on, and Chongzhen soon received news of the fall of Fengyang.

This time, Chongzhen did not blame Yang Yipeng again, nor did he punish Yang Yipeng for his crimes.

Because he received the news that Fengyang, Zhongdu, was trapped, and Zhu Guoqian, the commander of Fengyang, Cheng Yongning, and others died in battle. The bandits suddenly arrived and the road was far away. The left minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of Revenue and the Right Censor, Yang Yipeng, the governor of the grain transportation and the governor of the four prefectures of Jiangbei, knew that he had lost his responsibilities and died in Huai'an!

People are not in Fengyang, and they are all guilty and have died for their country. What else can we pursue?

He could only avoid the temple in vain and personally report to the Taimiao. He then arrested Fengyang inspector Wu Zhenying and others for the serious crime of losing the tomb.

This seems to have passed like this.

Unexpectedly, just two days later, the secret guards sent by King Zhu Qizhu of Tang, who were stationed in the capital, came to the door again.

Wang Yingxiong thought that he was here to convey his condolences.

After all, he asked the King of Tang to take action to save his mentor, but in a few days his mentor died in the country. It was normal for them to send someone to express their condolences.

Although he was ill in bed, he did not avoid it. He came with kindness and was not good to give others a rejection.

Unexpectedly, after entering the bedroom, the secret guard took out an envelope and handed it over.

Did the King of Tang write a letter to express his condolences? Isn’t this necessary?

He pulled out the letter paper and opened it, and immediately burst into tears.

There are only eight words in the letter. Everything is fine, don’t worry if you are not a bear.

If others get this letter, they will probably be inexplicably confused. What does this mean?

But he could understand at a glance that this was the handwriting of his mentor!

He was stunned for a while, then pointed to the words on the letter and choked and said, "Isn't you dead?"

The Secret nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, the Lord has sent someone to rescue him."

True or fake?

Is this possible?

There were news from Huai'an that many people saw their mentors jumping into the sea of ​​fire with their own eyes. Before their mentors died in their country, they said goodbye to their officials one by one. If it was fake, could they hide it from those people?

Moreover, there were people behind him who restrained his mentor's bones.

All of this proves that the teacher has been buried in the fire!

What's going on?

If he hadn't seen his mentor's handwritten letter, he really wouldn't believe that his mentor was still alive.

The methods of the Tang King of Nanyang are really incredible!

Yang Yipeng did not expect that one day he would escape in this way. He was a minister of the six ministries, and he had always been honest and dedicated to the public and served as a diligent official. If it weren't for the sudden fall of Fengyang of Zhongdu, how could he be like this?

Alas, Wu Zhenying, Chen Qiyu, Hong Chengchou, what are you doing?

Of course, he knew that Wu Zhenying was the in-laws of Wen Tiren, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and he also knew that Chen Qiyu was the in-laws of Zhang Fengyi, the Minister of War. As for Hong Chengchou, who was similar to his favorite disciple Wang Yingxiong, he knew that he was engaged in the officialdom and clinging to the powerful and powerful of the dynasty. In terms of real skills, Hong Chengchou might not be as good as his favorite disciple Wang Yingxiong.

Alas, what a pity, the emperor was deceived by these people and could not tell the difference between the east, south, west and north. If this continues, the Ming Dynasty will surely perish!

Perhaps, I should really die for this country, so that I can save my life from being destroyed when my country is destroyed and my family is destroyed.

He was like a walking corpse, wearing a bronze mask, sitting in a carriage, and under the strict protection of a group of secret guards, got on the wheel boat, and headed straight for Jinling.

At this moment, he was really lost, as if he was dead.

He didn't know what else he could do. Fengyang was defeated and he could not escape the blame. He could only die!

He can't even go back to his home, and going back will definitely involve his family.

Alas, the future is ruined, there is no way to serve the country, and you cannot go back to your home, so what's the point of living?

Hey, it's not right!

Just as he sighed, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with the wheel.

He was sitting in the cabin at this moment, and he didn't see anyone stepping on the water wheel at all. However, the wheel boat was galloping on the water like a wild horse that broke free!

how so?

He is the governor of the canal transportation and is naturally familiar with all kinds of ships. The wheel boat should not have such speed at all!

Soon, he found something was wrong under the table in the middle, because there was a strange sound inside.

Driven by curiosity, he directly asked the secret guard to open the table, wanting to find out.

The Secret Guard was not vague and immediately dismantled the table as he asked.

What is this?

Seeing the magical steam engine and gears, he was stunned.

He studied along the way for several days but still couldn't figure out why this set of things was so magical.

Next, there were many unexpected things to him.

After getting off the boat in Yunyang, he rode his horse straight to Zhejiang and Sichuan, surrounded by secret guards.

When he arrived at Zhejiang and Chuan County, he was as shocked by the prosperity in front of him.

He is from Huguang and has traveled back and forth on the Yangtze River more than once, so he naturally knows where he has been.

Now that the northwest has long been in vain, the disaster victims are so hungry that they are not as good as death, and they rebel one after another. How could there be such a prosperous place?

He was not surprised when he passed through Zhejiang and Sichuan Commercial Street and came to the Tang Palace.

Because he knew that the one who saved him was the Tang King of Nanyang, and the Tang Prince's Mansion in Zhejiang and Sichuan was nothing special. It should be said that compared with other vassal kings' mansions, the Tang Prince's Mansion should be considered relatively cold.

However, the person named Zhu Qizhu, the King of Tang, is quite special.

This person is obviously not a person in the pool. Not only is he powerful, but he also reveals a rare wisdom in his words and deeds.

After he just chatted with him casually, he realized that this King of Tang was really not simple.

Next, Zhu Qizhao did not hide it. After he held a banquet to entertain Yang Yipeng, he took Yang Yipeng directly into Daba Mountain and took him to visit the camps of the Pingdong Army, Pingxi Army, and Pingbei Army. He ordered the armies to gather and practice.

Only then did Yang Yipeng realize that this King of Tang wanted to rebel!

Otherwise, why are you practicing so many people secretly?

After Zhu Qizhua took him around, he said bluntly: "Mr. Yang, I'll tell you that my king has nearly 100,000 troops under him, and what you see is just ordinary young and strong, and the real elites are not here. Do you think this king has a chance of winning?"

Just this is just an ordinary young man!

Is this already comparable to the elite of the Ming army?

Also, you actually took me to see these things. Isn’t this clearly asking me to rebel with you?

Alas, forgot, the current court really has no hope.

Because Zhongdu Fengyang was lost, he was no longer tolerant of the court and had no way to serve the country.

Perhaps, following the Tang King's rebellion and Jingshen can continue the Ming Dynasty.

Many officials have been like this these days. If they want to rebel with thieves, they will definitely disdain. They can still consider it if they want to follow the royal family and the royal family to maintain the crisis. After all, this is also a way to continue the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Yipeng hesitated for a moment and sighed: "If the prince really has so many elites, Jingnan should have hope."

Well, Zhu Qizhuo said without hesitation: "Mr. Yang, you are responsible for raising and allocating military food and supplies in the court. From now on, I will hand over the 100,000 military food and salary under my command to you. What do you think?"

this!

How long have we met, and you have given me such a heavy responsibility?

That is the food and salary of a hundred thousand troops, hundreds of thousands of taels a month, and millions of taels a year!

Yang Yipeng couldn't help but be stunned and said, "Prince, can you trust the officials?"

Nowadays, corrupt officials in the court are rampant, can you not be greedy. Can you be greedy for my food and salary?

Zhu Qizhuo smiled and said, "The so-called doubts are not used, but people are not used. Lord Yang, I believe you."

Yang Yipeng couldn't help but feel moved: "Thank you for your trust, the emperor will do his best to serve the prince."
Chapter completed!
