At this time, Wang Yi took a few steps and said loudly: "Mo Shangshu's words are ridiculous... The King of Wu is the chief of our dynasty, and he has just made great military achievements for the court... Today, he is alone in the court. What is the name of the court that keeps the King of Wu out?"

Mo Zhinian stamped his feet and said, "Did the Chief Auxiliary forget the old story of Emperor Xun Danyang Marquis sending imperial guards to encircle and suppress the King of Wu?"

These words calmed down the whispers in the court, and everyone remembered what happened back then.

Mo Zhinian was right. When Zhu Cilang was wrong, he sent imperial guards to chase the left-down King of Wu. As a result, not only did the King of Wu be in danger, but it also aroused the anger of the people in the city. Especially under the leadership of Liu Yuan and others, tens of thousands of people gathered in the north of the city, blocking an imperial guard of about 5,000 people from the north of Taiping Bridge, making it impossible for him to return to the imperial city.

If the King of Wu was allowed to enter Beijing at this time, if the old events of the past were repeated, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Because of fear, many originally swaying ministers began to agree with Mo Zhongnian's advice.

However, everything has two sides. Also, because of fear, many people agree with Wang Yi's view... allowing King Wu to enter the capital.

It seems very contradictory, but in fact it is the heart of the people.

After all, Wu Zheng was not Dorgon, and the Northern Expedition Army was not the Qing army after all.

In the hearts of many ministers, they want to leave a way out for themselves.

For everyone present, even if Shen Zhiyuan and Qian Qiaogong led their troops back at this time, the number of imperial troops was already higher than that of the Northern Expedition Army under the King of Wu, but no one was a fool. If victory or defeat could be measured by the size of the troops, the Qing court would have known as a million troops, and would not have been driven out of the pass by the Northern Expedition Army.

Zhu Chenyu turned her eyes to Shen Zhiyuan, Qian Qiaogong, "I don't know what the Marquis of Shaoxing and Jiangyin Boyi thought?"

Shen Zhiyuan glanced at Qian Qiaogong, and Qian Qiaogong lowered his head and did not look at Shen Zhiyuan at all.

Unbearable, Shen Zhiyuan replied: "Reply to Your Majesty's words... I think Mo Shangshu's words are reasonable!"

With Shen Zhiyuan's joining, he disagreed with the faction of King Wu entering the city.

Wang Yi said anxiously: "Looking at the ancient and modern times, I have never heard of the reason that a court would turn away meritorious ministers... Besides, if the King of Wu intends to negotiate with the court, but the court does not agree. If the generals go out, everyone in the world will say that the court wants to break with the King of Wu... The cause of civil war must be borne by the court... This will make Your Majesty famous, I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"

This made sense, and many people who agreed to refuse the King of Wu to enter the city began to shake.

Indeed, the King of Wu only brought hundreds of people into the capital, which was obviously with kindness and sincerity. If the court refused to enter the city at this time, it would be like closing the door to negotiations. Then, if a civil war really broke out, everyone would accuse him of the court provoking this civil war. Naturally, as the powerful King of Wu, he became a victim.

King Wu, it’s amazing! This is the feeling in the hearts of these ministers in the court.

Therefore, the dispute over whether to allow King Wu to enter the city became a continuous battle, and no decision was made until noon.

....

The Taiping Gate was closed, and the defenders on the city tower were ready for battle.

There are quite some defensive formations against the Qing army's attack, but they are even better than that.

Outside the city, there were only six hundred people around Wu Zheng who was standing on horseback.

Mao Xiang laughed loudly, pointed at the defenders on the top of the city, and shouted to Wu Zheng: "King of Wu... they are afraid!"

Everyone is smiling, and pride is flowing in this smile.

Yes, only six hundred people are enough to make the court afraid and afraid. What kind of halo is more glorious than this?

Wu Zheng was also laughing, but he was not calm.

Yes, the court was afraid, but this was just the surface.

Since you dare to ascend the throne, you are not afraid, but the layer of paper separated from it has not yet been torn.

And this layer of paper really can't follow too much pulling force, and it will break with a little force.

But Wu Zheng must stand here and express his attitude to the people of the world.

This is not a show, but a sword!

If you cannot retreat, you will lose your heart.

After the deaths of Huang Daozhou, Chen Zilong, Qian Sule, Zhang Guowei and others, Wu Zheng had almost no force to rely on except the Northern Expedition Army.

If you can win the world, it’s not just about military strength.

If so, I'm afraid Wu Sangui would have ascended the throne long ago.

Nearly two hours have passed, and as the sky is getting dark, the city gate is still closed.

Mao Xiang and others shouted at the top of the city and scolded them, but they ignored them and there was no good idea. After all, it was a fantasy that 600 people wanted to attack the Taiping Sect.

"Send the order to go... camp on the spot, be careful!"

....

In fact, there were only the imperial guards and the right camp in the capital. Liao Zhongping's left camp was stationed in Chuzhou, and later transferred part of it to the northwest by Wu Zheng.

In addition, Xia Wanchun found an excuse to detain Liao Zhongping, but in fact the court had temporarily lost control of the Zuoying.

It’s not that the Zuoying lost Liao Zhongping’s leadership and became a mess.

Instead, Zuoying was an army that existed since the establishment of the Jianxing Dynasty, and most of them were veterans of more than five years.

They have seen several coups in Yingtian Prefecture.

The soldiers who are fighting in the camp and flowing through the river, whether they are the country or the emperor, have changed a few times. The only thing that remains unchanged is His Highness, the King of Wu.

In the rescue mall, Zuoying was transferred to Jiangbei by Wu Zheng in the name of a general.

Most of the soldiers were afraid of the King of Wu. At this time, the court and the King of Wu had not yet broken up. The King of Wu was still the King of Wu and was still the governor of the country. Therefore, although the court intended to transfer Zuoying to the south to cross the Yangtze River, there was no suitable excuse.

The generals were not allowed to accept the orders of the outside king, and the same was true for the army. The Zuoying always followed the old system and used the tiger talisman as the commander to mobilize troops.

Unless the court cuts the position of generals and officers of Wu Zheng, the previous orders are still there and the later orders can be ignored, even if it is the imperial edict or the emperor's order.

This is also the main reason for the insecurity in the court at this time. It is known that it is only two or three years old that the Right Battalion, which has not fought many wars, wants to resist the counterattack of the Northern Expedition Army, which has been through many battles. Everyone knows that the hope is slim.

Not to mention the imperial guards that are both golden and jade-like and broken.

But now, it's different.

With Shen Zhiyuan's 20,000 spear cavalry and Qian Qiaogong's part of the Fenglei cavalry, the city's defense is sufficient.

With confidence, some people naturally became tough when they spoke.

The court discussion that has not yet ended has been advised to deprive Wu Zheng of the position of general, and some people even advised to directly remove Wu Zheng of the title of prince, once and for all.

Of course, there are not many such people. As long as they are among the ministers, no one will think this is a good strategy unless they have decided to break up.

Not only Wang Yi, Xu Fuyuan, Mo Zhinian and others disagreed, but even Shen Zhiyuan and Qian Qiaogong also disagreed.

In Mo Zhong's words, the new king ascended the throne from the beginning was a path of literary fighting. If he broke up with the King of Wu at this time, wouldn't he erase everything before? Wouldn't the eldest princess, Mr. Wozi and others die in vain?
