Chapter 238 Come on, copy their home
Surrendering prisoners is a traitor!
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt a panic in their hearts. Soon, the fear turned into hair, and hair turned into fear!
I don’t blame them for being cowardly, but because people are under the roof now!
"Your Majesty, unless I am willing to surrender, I have no choice but to implement this delaying strategy!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, we were just trying to make ends meet with Donglu."
Listening to the words of everyone in the hall, Zhu Guoqiang just smiled and listened to their explanations.
Explain, you should explain it well!
What a delaying tactic, what an excuse!
They were all jokes, but Zhu Guoqiang did not refute them. He was waiting and watching their performances one by one. He had to admit that each of them was really a performing artist!
This is really acting like it.
Finally, after talking about everyone's good intentions, someone else stood up and said something.
"We know that the Crown Prince must be resentful of us for refusing to allow you to enter the city, but we also think about the people in the city. The generals under the Crown Prince are extremely brave. This battle is so shocking that the gods and gods will cry. If there are any officers and soldiers who still have the heart to kill on the battlefield,
I mean, after entering the city, due to an accident, people were killed and injured. What's the blame on the people? Even though they suffered such a disaster, if the prince is to blame, please blame someone."
The person who stood up was none other than Xie Sheng. With his righteous and awe-inspiring look, it was hard to believe that it was the man in front of him who advocated surrendering!
Hum hum, they are really all "loyal ministers and righteous men"!
With something in mind, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but sigh.
"Oh, let me put it this way, you are truly heroes of our Ming Dynasty and loyal ministers and righteous men of our Ming Dynasty."
After such a sarcastic remark, Zhu Guoqiang did not continue speaking, but gave instructions to the people on the side.
"Is Hou Fangyu here?"
Although it was just three simple words, the expressions of Xie Sheng and others changed slightly. Don't they know who Hou Fangyu is?
In the few days when the Qing army came to the city, this boy passed a lot of news to them. Speaking of which, after everyone knew that Hou Xun's son had surrendered to the captives, instead of being ashamed of him, they felt a little lucky. After all, the captive camp
Things will be much easier if you have acquaintances.
Hou Fangyu, who had been frightened for a long time, hurriedly knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the lobby.
"Little, little man, come to the world, the prince, the prince Kang'an..."
Okay!
Looking at Hou Fangyu's appearance, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.
"My hair was shaved and my braids were left. I never thought that I would lose my spine, but I can kneel down very neatly!"
Zhu Guoqiang asked with a casual sarcasm.
"Hou Fangyu, tell me who wanted to offer the city in those days."
"Hui, Hui Shizi, I, I know, all of them have been recruited. Almost all the people in the middle hall want to surrender the city to protect themselves. They, they even submitted a letter of surrender!"
Send a letter!
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed when they heard this, and they all hurriedly defended themselves.
"Hou Fangyu, if you surrender to the captives, you will surrender to the captives. Why are you tainting our innocence!"
"That's right, you are indeed on the same road as Hou Xun, and you actually spit on others!"
"Your Majesty, don't listen to him when he wrongly accuses us. This is slander!"
"Exactly, Your Majesty, how can we surrender to the captives if we have been favored by the country in this life!"
For a moment, everyone in the hall was filled with anger. Seeing their awe-inspiring looks, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.
"good!"
A loud shout!
Zhu Guoqiang said loudly.
"What a life of being blessed by the country, what a person who will never surrender to captivity! What a group of loyal and righteous people!"
As soon as the sound fell, Zhu Guoqiang stood up, stared at them, and then said with a smile.
"Okay, you all have your own reasons and are loyal people of the Ming Dynasty. Come here, bring me the letter of surrender and the money Qianyi..."
In an instant, the hall fell silent. Everyone looked like they were mourning for their heirs. They looked at Zhu Guoqiang standing in the hall in shock. He, he really had the surrender letter in his hand!
And Qian Qianyi, didn’t that old guy say that the surrender letter had been burned? How could it fall into the hands of Prince De?
In fact, Qian Qianyi himself did not know why the letter of surrender fell into the hands of Prince De. The letter of surrender was something he used to save his life in the prison camp and had been given to Donglu. As for how it fell into the hands of Prince De,
I'm afraid he never dreamed that it was Abate's daughter in exchange for it!
It's definitely worth a thousand gold, no, it's worth two cents!
"Prince Defan, what do you want to do!"
Suddenly, Zhao Zhilong, who was still looking pitiful, shouted loudly!
"Don't you think you can use your words to kill us and seize the city?"
Zhao Zhilong's sharp shout made everyone come back to their senses immediately. They suddenly realized - yes, if you beg for mercy like this, it would be a dead end. Now there is only one way to survive, to survive!
As for the letter of surrender!
As long as he insists that it is fake, what can he do to me?
Moreover, if he insists that he wants to kill people and seize the city with words, there will naturally be public discussions waiting for him every day.
"Prince De, don't you think you can kill all the officials in the city?"
"Prince De, do you want to commit great treason?"
For a time, the hall was filled with angry voices. If he hadn't understood the character of these people, Zhu Guoqiang would have really thought that these people were loyal ministers and righteous men. They were all here impassionedly accusing traitors!
In fact, it is certain that Zhu Guoqiang will not kill them. No, it should be said that he does not dare to kill them.
Perhaps most of the Southern Hunkers were masters who stayed in prostitution and never forgot about their country, but they definitely all had the potential to be successful in their careers. They certainly knew how to make a name for themselves. In the Ming Dynasty, they were punished with imperial punishments or demoted for admonishing the emperor.
Even if you are reprimanded, you can use your name to buy your innocence. Even if you are beaten to death on the spot, you can still leave your name.
But when has the emperor ever dared to kill a remonstrating minister?
Even if he was hit, it would be "accidental".
The reason why they are so righteous and awe-inspiring now that they have become loyal people, to put it bluntly, is because they want to die in order to survive, and they want to bet on virtue. The prince does not dare to kill, no, he does not dare to kill so many people, but they can still
Put the stigma on Prince De.
Just like they advised the emperor, even if they were just trying to make something out of nothing, they could also put down a royal stick and ask for his name to buy his authority. Let the emperor be completely stigmatized. Now, isn't it just a small game they are accustomed to!
No big deal!
Facing the performance of such a group of loyal ministers and righteous men, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.
"You think I don't dare to kill people?"
"If Crown Prince De has any dissent and tries to usurp the throne, how could he not kill us if he is so ambitious!"
What Xie Sheng said was very skillful, that is to say - if you want to usurp the throne and act rebelliously, then kill us. We are all loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty. If you want to usurp the throne, you will naturally kill the loyal ministers.
"Okay, very good!"
With a sneer, Zhu Guoqiang ignored them and said while holding the letter of surrender in his hand.
"Take the people named in the surrender letter, don't let anyone go, and confiscate their property and their families. Our lieutenants will sacrifice their lives for the country, use their property to reward our officers and soldiers!"
…
In an instant, the performance art came to a screeching halt.
Search your home?
This is wrong!
So there is such a trick!
Everything is gone!
Everyone looked in disbelief, and Wei Guogong Xu Wenjue was even more excited.
"Prince De, I, Duke of Wei, am the Great Master of the Ming Dynasty. How dare you..."
For them, the identity card of the honorable minister is a talisman for their unscrupulous behavior. In the past, the court was always a little scrupulous about their identity.
But today they obviously encountered someone who didn't follow common sense. Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.
"From now on, there will be no Duke of Wei in the Ming Dynasty! The spirit of King Zhongshan in heaven would blush if he saw his descendants surrendering to the captives!"
"You, you are just the crown prince of Yide Domain, how dare you do this!"
Xu Wenjue was immediately furious. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, except Emperor Gao, who had dealt with them like this, no other emperor would have cared for them.
Even Emperor Chengzu would not dare to kill them all. After all, it was they...their ancestors who conquered the Ming Dynasty!
Without their ancestors, where would the world of Lao Zhu’s family come from?
"How dare I do this?"
Facing other people's questions, Zhu Guoqiang laughed loudly.
"How dare you say I do this!"
At this moment, someone suddenly called.
Chapter completed!
