The biggest role of these remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty outside the Pass is just to lead the charge.
Liu Zongsheng's eyes flashed with contempt.
Thirty years ago, this group of people was driven out of the Central Plains, and they lost the chance to go south again and take over the Central Plains.
Thirty years ago, they failed to defend the Central Plains. Today, thirty years later, they will not be able to capture the Central Plains.
Abu, who was following Abu (father in Mongolian), squinted his eyes.
These Akira people around him made him feel very uncomfortable.
No matter what happens on the grassland, the brave people of Changshengtian will only choose to hold a knife and ride on horseback to solve everything that happens.
Rather than being like these treacherous and cunning Akito.
It would be great if Mingren could be less cunning.
Abu, I just imagined it in my heart.
If Mingren were less clever, Mingren's weak body would never be able to stop the strong people of Immortality.
Arutai seemed to be aware of it, and looked back at his son, with a hint of reproach in his eyes.
Abu quickly lowered his head.
Arutai groaned in his heart.
Just like the cunning and weak Akito, the tribal people on the grassland are brave but arrogant.
The people of Ming Dynasty have taught the people of Changshengtian how to seize and occupy the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains, but the Khans from generation to generation seem to only care about whether the warriors under their command are brave.
If you want to return to the Central Plains, you must learn how Ming people behave while preserving the bravery of the people of Changshengtian.
Arutai knew very well what the Mingren in the attic of Li Mansion's compound thought and thought about his group.
To use Ming people's terminology, they are chasing away wolves and devouring tigers.
But, the current Yuan Ren is no longer the original Yuan Ren.
Arutai's eyes were dark, and he moved his gaze from the fire area in the city to the Jin Palace in the north with its towering high walls and magnificent glazed tiles.
On the birthday of King Jin of the Ming Dynasty, he will command the strongest warriors of the tribe to rush into the palace of King Jin, and take advantage of the chaos to kidnap the grandson of the Ming Emperor and King Jin.
Arutai lowered his head quietly, hiding his eyes in the shadows, and looked at Li Wenxiang and Liu Zongsheng.
These two Ming people were thinking about kidnapping the Ming emperor's grandson and Jin Wang, but they themselves didn't want to.
They thought they came here this time just to take advantage of the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty to plunder some food and supplies from the Central Plains and return to the grassland.
But I also have the same plan as them.
Arutai couldn't help but think of another saying from the Central Plains people.
Everything is just waiting for the arrival of King Jin's birthday.
…
"The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind."
In the dark courtyard, Zhu Yunxi lost his mood of looking at the sea of fire, turned around and returned to the relatively warm cellar, and spoke quietly to Zhu Yunwen and others.
At the exit of the tunnel, Gao Yangzhi finally came after hearing the news, staring at the emperor's grandson who had entered the city privately with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at the other party, and then continued: "In this Taiyuan city, who is the cicada, who is the mantis, and who is the oriole?"
Gao Yangzhi said dullly: "If Your Highness does such a risky thing again, I don't know who the oriole and the mantis will be, but I will definitely know who the cicada will be."
"Don't be so nervous." Zhu Yunxi felt helpless and shook his head: "You always have to see with your own eyes what is going on in the city before you can sleep peacefully."
Gao Yangzhi frowned and looked at the duo huddled together in the cellar.
Zhu Yunwen and Zhang Hui, who were already crouching under the wall, couldn't help but shrink back when they saw the youngest cabinet minister in the empire who was calm and proud.
shrink.
Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Gao Yangzhi sighed helplessly: "The Taiyuan City government palace has been burned. Zhang Hui and the others will definitely report it to His Highness before the city gate opens tomorrow. The three guards at the Jin Palace have not returned to Taiyuan City.
, before His Highness’s various arrangements are finalized, anything may happen.”
Zhu Yunxi could not get angry at such words of advice from important ministers.
The team is getting bigger and bigger, and it is getting harder and harder to lead.
Not only must we consider gains and losses, but we must also consider the thoughts of everyone in the team.
To maintain the ruling power of the imperial family and then revolutionize the world, what is needed is for people like them to do their jobs.
Zhu Yunxi nodded and did not say that he was wrong. He just said: "Before the birthday of Uncle Jin Wang, Gu Jue will not enter Taiyuan City again."
After receiving an affirmative answer, Gao Yangzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He softened his attitude a little and said, "I hope your highness will forgive me. I am not overstepping my bounds. It is because your highness's daughter's body is of great importance and is related to the foundation of the country.
For example, tonight, I can enter the city and I can die, but Your Highness must not face danger.
If Gu Chen's death can make His Highness safe, I am willing to die."
Zhu Yunxi's eyes flickered, and he said helplessly: "It's not time to kill you yet, so I'll go back to the camp."
Gao Yangzhi nodded and stood sideways at the tunnel entrance.
Sun Cheng and Tian Mai immediately began to organize manpower to escort Zhu Yunxi out of the city and back to the camp.
"Wait."
However, Zhu Yunwen suddenly spoke up and stopped Zhu Yunxi who had already reached the entrance of the tunnel.
Zhu Yunxi looked back.
I saw Zhu Yunshan Shanshan, who was squatting under the wall, smiled and asked: "Then when the sun comes up, what will happen in Taiyuan City..."
"The snow in this city is also a bit thick. Let's wait until daybreak to give Taiyuan City a little more color."
Zhu Yunxi smiled twice, said a few words, and then bent down and got into the tunnel.
In the blink of an eye, only Zhu Yunwen and Zhang Hui were left in the cellar.
Seeing that the cellar that was originally crowded with people was now empty, Zhu Yunwen looked sideways at Zhang Hui beside him.
"I know that the third child is a reliable person, but you said that when the sun comes up, can things really be done?"
Zhang Hui rolled his eyes at the idiot in front of him: "You brought up the matter, and His Highness nodded in agreement. Are you asking this question now?"
Zhu Yunwen supported his knees with both hands, moved his butt to a stool, looked at the fool Zhang Hui, and sighed softly.
"There are now more than 10,000 Shanxi merchants and White Lotus Sect members in the city, and we also know that they have summoned members of the White Lotus Sect from all over the city to come to Taiyuan City.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There are also people from the Tatar tribe who quietly entered Taiyuan City. Li Wenxiang, Liu Zongsheng and others are also preparing to provoke the hundreds of thousands of Japanese workers in Shanxi Province to rebel."
Zhu Yunwen spoke in a low voice, pointing out the current situation of Shanxi Road and Taiyuan City one by one.
He looked solemnly and said: "We all know their preparations now. But I always feel that they must have some back-ups that I don't know about."
Zhang Hui frowned and said, "But where is this back-up man you mentioned?"
This guy is truly an idiot.
Zhu Yunwen once again had an impression of Zhang Hui as an idiot in his heart.
He was speechless and said: "If I knew, I wouldn't be nagging you here."
Zhang Hui blinked and opened his mouth.
Then, he waved his sleeve fiercely.
"It's not enough to say nothing!"
After finishing speaking gloomily, Zhang Hui also got into the dark tunnel with full of anger.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhang Hui's disappearing figure in the tunnel and said gloomily: "Isn't he happy anymore?"
After muttering, Zhu Yunwen breathed a sigh of relief.
He half-crouched and spread his arms, reaching out to grab the ladder and climb out of the cellar.
After getting out of the cellar, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but shudder.
After tightening his clothes, Zhu Yunwen lowered his head and bent his waist and looked around.
The footprints originally left by Jin Yiwei on the ground disappeared without a trace because of the heavy snow that never stopped.
Zhu Yunwen quickly got into the house.
Then he tiptoed and took off his clothes in the outer room, went to the stove with a hole in the wall, and warmed his whole body, and then walked into the inner room at a low pace.
With the light coming in from the window, Zhu Yunwen glanced at the bed, then felt relieved and carefully opened the quilt.
He was about to get into the quilt.
Then he saw Qiuniang, who had her back turned to him, suddenly turned around.
In the darkness, Qiuniang blinked her bright eyes.
"Woke you up?"
Zhu Yunwen said blaming himself.
Qiuniang blinked and shook her head: "That person who came to the house just now?"
Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "You haven't fallen asleep?"
"Some can't sleep."
In the room, Qiuniang's voice was small and soft.
Zhu Yunwen got into the quilt, pressed the quilt on Qiuniang's body tightly, leaned in front of him and whispered: "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer and we will go back to Jiangnan and go home."
"Fengyang is not considered Jiangnan."
"Yingtian is Jiangnan." Zhu Yunwen's eyes showed a bit of heartache, and he comforted: "When the New Year is over, when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom next year, we will be in Jiangnan."
"What's there in Jiangnan?"
"Jiangnan... the new tea before the rain is always refreshing. In summer, it's best to go on a boat to pick lotus flowers. In autumn, it's best to go out for a walk in the warm afternoon. In winter, it's natural to cook tea around the stove and eat some baked goods."
"Erlang will take me with him."
"Yes, I will definitely do it. All year round, all my life."
"Then I'm sleepy."
"Go to sleep."
…
The fire in the government palace burned all night.
When it was almost dawn, because there was really nothing to burn, the fire was finally extinguished with some reluctance.
When daybreak came, the snow that had been falling since yesterday finally stopped.
The dark clouds dispersed, the sky was filled with morning sun, and the morning light shone on the earth and the snow, making the world between heaven and earth brighter and purer than before.
We just entered Taiyuan City and reached the vicinity of the official residence.
Before we arrived at Jiageku, the pure white snow on the ground had long since turned pitch black and covered with dust.
Next to the three government offices, two pavilions and warehouses have been turned into ruins.
The burned wood will break and collapse at any time, causing the height of the ruins to decrease again and again.
The heat remaining under the ruins is still spreading outwards, leaving no trace of snow around.
Melted snow water fell from the eaves.
It ticked and kept ringing.
In this ruins, a large group of people gathered.
Blue-gray official uniforms and green official robes.
Among this large group of people, several government officials in official uniforms were tied up and knelt on the ground.
Several men in red robes were standing close by. Their official robes were stained with dust, and their white boots were blackened and wet with snow.
Changsun Gong's face was gloomy, his hands were hidden in his sleeves and clasped behind his back.
Just like him, he was accompanied by Shanxi Dao Anchao Si An Chao Zhou Yunkun, Shanxi Daodu Commander Sidu Commander Liu Liang, Taiyuan Prefecture Magistrate Song Shenggui, and Yangqu County Magistrate Yue Xinghui.
These are the chief officials of various yamen in Taiyuan City.
Behind them are the subordinate officials of their respective yamen.
"Jiageku is a place where the court is responsible for the military and political archives. It is related to the long-term peace and stability of the place and the people's livelihood.
Now the Shanxi Dao governor's Sijia Geku was burned, and the Jiage treasury in Taiyuan Prefecture and Yangqu County was burned.
The stakes are high and the crime is unforgivable."
Zhou Yunkun, the inspector general of Shanxi Province, looked gloomy and spoke in a cold tone.
Liu Liang, the commander of Shanxi Daodu, whispered: "With the city gate open, His Highness Taisun will definitely know the cause of the fire in the city last night."
Changsun Gong had a dark face.
His face was really dark, because it was caused by the ashes falling on his face from the sky full of tickets after he rushed from Wangfen Tower last night.
And he didn't clean it off.
Changsun Gong had a dark face and said coldly: "Has everything been investigated in Taiwan?"
Zhou Yunkun nodded and looked at the tied people kneeling on the ground with a cold face: "The inspector general has found out the truth about the fire in the government warehouse last night. It was because these silverfish were trying to keep warm and burned in the warehouse.
A charcoal fire was ignited in the middle of the house. It was because he had been dozing off all night, neglected his duty, and left his duty without permission. The stove he had built fell to the ground and ignited the warehouse, which led to the fire."
The few people kneeling on the ground immediately fell to the ground with a thud.
"A small crime deserves death."
"Please forgive me."
"The feudal lord spared my little one's life."
"I know my mistakes, and I will never make them again..."
"..."
There was a cry for mercy from the crowd on the ruins.
Changsun Gong had a dark face and said angrily: "The local government's Jigeku is just like the Huangceku on Xuanwu Lake. Now that the Jigeku has been burned, are you still trying to survive?"
His face was gloomy, and he turned to look at Zhou Yunkun: "Jiageku was burned because of a minor official's dereliction of duty. What crime was he charged and what was his punishment?"
Zhou Yunkun glanced at the people kneeling on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
He said in a cold voice: "The relationship between the Jigeku and the Treasury is very important. It involves the local area. It was burned today. The mistake of a minor official should be punished with heavy punishment. According to the decision of the Inspectorate, he will be executed and the three tribes will be exiled for three thousand miles."
Changsun Gong immediately took over the words: "Come here, behead these people. According to the investigation and envoy, the chief envoy will report to the emperor's grandson's presence."
The master of Fantai who was in charge of Shanxi issued an order.
At that moment, several ferocious, wolf-like and tiger-like officers with swords rushed out and dragged away the officials who were guarding the cabinet.
After a while, several shrill screams were heard not far away.
Guo Yuchuang, the political envoy of Shanxi Province, sitting on the left side of Siyamen, said in a low voice behind Changsun Gong: "Go back to the feudal lord and write the memorial. I will send someone to Taisun Xingzai outside the city."
Changsun Gong looked at the ruins of the Jiageku, which occasionally made crashing sounds and emitted black smoke, with an imperceptible sneer flashing in his eyes.
"go."
A quarter of an hour.
Outside Taiyuan North City, walking in the camp.
Gao Yangzhi looked at the retreating figures of the officers sent by Si Yamen, the chief envoy of Shanxi Province, and turned back to the Chinese army's tent.
Inside the tent, all the civil servants and generals from the Northern Patrol gathered here.
Zhu Yunxi, who was sitting high on the white tiger chair in the army, looked gloomy.
In his hand he was holding a memorial sent by the Chief Envoy of Shanxi Province.
Throw the memorial on the case.
Zhu Yunxi sneered twice.
"I never thought that the Ming government could be so efficient in investigating cases!"
