Chapter 2552 : Birds do their best to hide their bows
On the streets of midsummer, the weather in the capital became sultry. On the streets where people were coming and going, a sedan slowly came in from outside the city gate. Looking at the momentum of the sedan bearer and the officers and soldiers guarding the way, it must have been...
He is a character with extraordinary origins. The people on both sides of the road looked up and talked about him all the way.
"Is this the princess of Chaoyang who is going to get married? Hey, why haven't you heard of it?" Someone in the crowd asked. "I heard that this is the daughter that King Yong has kept secretly for seventeen years. King Yong doesn't want to let her go.
My daughter will make the same mistakes as those princesses, hey, I didn’t expect it, but it’s inevitable!” someone sighed.
"King Yong worked hard all his life and made great achievements, but the emperor treated him like this in the end. It's really like a man leaving the tea, and the birds are gone, and the good bow is hidden! I think back when King Yong was in northern Xinjiang, how happy he was to kill the Tatars!"
"It's getting more and more outrageous these days. A small Tatar has made us suffer so much, is there no one left in the court? Why don't you fight with them? There are so many people in the Central Plains, and we are still afraid
Those barbarians!"
"Most of the people in the court are greedy for life and afraid of death. Who can really go to the battlefield? Except for King Yong, I think there is no one in the court. Now we have to let King Yong's daughter go to get married. This is not a disgrace to our Ming Dynasty.
His face? I don’t know what the emperor is thinking! Doesn’t this make the Tatars even more arrogant?”[
The common people talked about it and sighed helplessly. In these troubled times, the Ming Dynasty's rule was already in danger.
Although the capital is much more prosperous than other places, information is very well-informed. Wherever something goes wrong or there is a rebellion, it can be spread in the streets and alleys.
However, according to legend, no one dared to openly contradict the imperial officials. It is said that once the common people jointly submitted a letter to the emperor requesting not to negotiate peace with the Tatars. Yan Song noticed it, blocked the joint letter, and also killed those who took the lead.
Yan Song's methods were indeed very sinister when people were killed, but the people dared not speak out in anger, hoping that Zhang Juzheng would remove this traitor from power as soon as possible.
Among the crowd, a young man in a rich robe and jade belt glanced at the sedan with a forlorn look. Listening to the injustices and discussions of the people around him, he couldn't help but clenched his fists. One day, he would get on his horse and flatten the Tatars.
