After dragging the road for so many days, despite all the reluctance in his heart, Wang Liangdong and his party still came to Yangzhou. They walked with fear all the way. Even if there were hundreds of guards around them, Wang Liangdong, as an internal official, was still worried.

Raised in the throat!

The ancients said, "There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind." At first, Wang Liangdong really didn't know what it meant, but in the past few days, he finally realized the meaning of this sentence.

On the way south, only God knows what kind of life he lived!

It was very scary, and it was clear that my heart was frightened day and night.

After crossing the Yellow River, he was worried that he would encounter Donglu and be killed by them.

In the following days, he heard several pieces of news one after another. First, the commander-in-chief Shi Kefa was defeated and the entire army of nearly 100,000 men was destroyed. This news only frightened him so much that he almost didn't run back to the capital.

Just when he was hesitating in Zhongdu whether to continue to Yangzhou to announce the decree or to escape back to the capital and bring the news to the emperor, another news came over there - Prince De led the troops to Nanjing.

After learning the news, he and everyone in Zhongdu remained silent for a long time. In the end, most of them sighed - there is no greater loyalty in the world than this!

He even felt that he no longer needed to declare the decree.

Superintendent Shi's army with one hundred thousand troops was completely wiped out, not to mention that the prince's troops only numbered twenty or thirty thousand men. This was not to give up his life after thousands of miles!

Just when he was packing his luggage and preparing to return to the capital to tell the emperor that Prince De had served his country loyally, news came from Jiangnan that shocked everyone's eyes almost.

Prince De wins!

Abatai was beaten so badly that he even had to kneel down and beg for mercy. If that guy hadn't threatened the lives of the millions of people he had stolen, he would have been buried under the city of Nanjing.

Okay, this almost has to go ahead!

So when Abatai began to release people, Wang Liangdong, who had the imperial edict, went all the way south. Of course, he also met the people who were released along the way. From their mouths, he knew how cruel the Donglu were. Of course,

I also know how they filled the city with firewood, so that if they wanted to, they could burn all the people in the city to death at any time!

No wonder Prince De would let Abatai and those Donglu go, since they had hostages tied up in their hands!

With this muttering in mind, he crossed the river and arrived in Nanjing. Just in time, he met the prince who had summoned Nanjing's distinguished ministers and officials from the six ministries.

Now, standing in the hall and looking at the people in the hall, he still felt secretly bitter in his heart.

It's terrible!

What the hell kind of job is this!

When did this man offend someone and end up in this position!

Logically speaking, it is the official's duty to announce the decree, but it also depends on what decree is being announced and to whom.

This job is a bit deadly!

Not to mention the risks along the way, what will happen if Crown Prince De does not accept the decree when the decree is announced? Although he has brought more than a hundred imperial guards, those guys are not enough to kill him. Donglu and the others cannot stop him.

The soldiers under the prince's command are more ruthless than Donglu.

To this day, the "Jingguan" outside the city still appears in his mind, and he can even feel that he can smell the smell of blood coming from the "Jingguan". He will never forget that smell in his life!

If he offends Prince De... he will die.

good!

It just so happens that Nanjing’s honorable ministers and officials from the six ministries are all here now!

Now it’s okay, with them here, there’s nothing to worry about!

As we all know, due to the "Jingnan Incident", the Ming Dynasty's meritorious ministers group was divided into the north and the south, just like the northern and southern capitals. The capital side was naturally dominated by the Jingnan heroes. After all, after Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, others had to follow him.

As for Nanjing, of course it is Jianwen. No, it should be the old ministers of Hongwu. These founding heroes of the old Zhu family stayed in Nanjing after Zhu Di moved north. This group of people, led by the Xu family, Duke of Wei, lived their own small life in Nanjing.

Life has been peaceful for so many years.

The so-called tranquility is actually due to helplessness. Although Nanjing is far away from the center, after all, Nanjing also has six ministries and civil servants. Although these old ministers of Hongwu are the founding heroes, they are also "old ministers of Jianwen", so naturally they can't talk about it.

The officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing did not mind stepping on the heads of these nobles and transferring them back to the capital to teach them how to behave every minute.

Of course, they are really not good people. They have also invaded land and taken away women from the people, but they are all within the scope of "reasonableness". Of course, this kind of reasonableness is the result of years of struggle with the civil servants in Nanjing.

of.

You can neither be a virtuous minister nor a prey to the people. The former is about raising hopes, while the latter is about abusing the people. Therefore, it is not easy to be a noble minister! No matter what you do, you have to be measured. In fact, this is also the same as being a civil servant.

Same thing. Corruption and perversion of the law must also be measured.

Alas, actually it’s not easy for everyone.

Of course, Wang Liangdong really didn't care about these things and it had nothing to do with him. He rushed over as soon as he heard that the prince was meeting these people because these honorable ministers and officials from the six ministries were all his supporters!

No matter how arrogant Prince De is, he can chop off his head in front of these people!

He is a middle-ranking official sent by the emperor to announce the decree. If he dares to disobey the decree, it will be rebellion and rebellion. There are so many honorable ministers and so many civil servants here, how dare he?

God bless me, let me seize this opportunity!

Wang Liangdong prayed secretly in his heart. On the way to the south, he thought a lot, and the most important thing was death. Now, after finally jumping out of the hell gate, he didn't care about etiquette, so he declared the decree in a hurry.

The emperor's imperial edict was issued twenty days ago. It was even caused by the impeachment of Shi Kefa and officials from the Six Ministries of Nanjing. They killed people to seize soldiers, extorted merchants and people, and raped people's daughters. All kinds of misdeeds can be called great treason, but read

In his clan, he has made great contributions to the country. Therefore, the emperor is generous and cares about the friendship between relatives, so - invite him to go to Zhongdu Gaoqiang. You see, how kind and benevolent this emperor is.

.

It simply makes the whole world unable to find fault. In fact, even ghosts don’t believe this.

"...I admire this!"

Finally, after reading the imperial edict, Wang Liangdong looked at Prince De and then at all the honorable ministers and civil servants in the hall, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Now, this errand is finally done!

Not only did he breathe a sigh of relief, but Xu Wenjue, Zhao Zhilong and others also breathed a sigh of relief!

Retribution!

Retribution!

God has eyes, and an imperial edict suppressed this murderous god!

Now it's good, this kid is going to be imprisoned behind a high wall. Everyone looked happy, and everyone who was still worried at first had smiles on their faces.

Boy, you have today too.

They looked at the livid-faced Prince De, and felt happy in their hearts.

Okay, just a moment ago, didn't this kid still want to ransack their homes and chop off their heads?

This is really a turn of events. Wasn't he very proud before? Why is he so unhappy?

Hum!

It's just an unpopular clan. What's the big deal? Wanting to deal with him is just an imperial edict.

Looking at the livid and angry Prince De, Xu Wenjue suddenly said loudly.

"Prince De, do you dare to resist the decree?"

Others also looked gloating. In their opinion, as long as the Prince of De in front of them dares to resist the decree, it will be just right. So many Jin Yiwei are here to take care of people.

When the time comes, there may not even be a need to remove the high walls of Zhongdu, but just cut him down in the lobby.

"Your Majesty, you should always accept the order!"

Wang Liangdong held up the imperial edict in his hand and looked serious in his words.

"Whenever the prince has any grievances, just write them down. The servants will naturally bring them to the emperor when the time comes. Besides, the prince has made such great contributions this time. If the emperor knows about it, he will definitely be very happy. How can it be possible then?

Are you going to imprison the prince behind a high wall?"

As a lieutenant general, Wang Liangdong did not add insult to injury, nor did he take pleasure in others' misfortune. Instead, he persuaded him with sincerity and sincerity.

Our family is just here to read out the imperial edict.

He was thinking about this in his heart, and at this moment, he suddenly heard the prince, who had been silent all this time, say.
Chapter completed!
