Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 119 The Arrow
The day after Sun Kewang took Fan Wencheng away.

Thinking of Fan Wencheng's crazy words, Zhang Xianzhong became more and more unhappy, so he sent an order to let his other three adopted sons come to see him.

"Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, and Ainengqi pay homage to the emperor."

Soon Li Dingguo and two other people came to visit, Zhang Xianzhong pointed to the chair next to him:
"Watch the seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the three thanked their seats, Li Dingguo took the lead to ask:
"Your majesty, you suddenly summoned our brother, there must be something important?"

Zhang Xianzhong nodded:

"Daxi is still stable at present. Have you three found other forces that are not good for us in Daxi?"

Both Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu shook their heads:

"Your Majesty, everything is fine in Daxi. It's strange to say that after Li Zicheng was destroyed, they should target us Daxi, but we didn't notice any movement from the Ming army."

Zhang Xianzhong:
"Not only did Ming Dynasty not do anything to us, after they suppressed Wu Sangui and wiped out the Xianghuang Banner, they also did not do anything to Dongyao. They don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Chongzhen's gourd."

Li Dingguo:
"Your Majesty, Ming's reforms are being carried out with great fanfare, although they have caused great dissatisfaction among the gentry officials and vassal kings.

However, this reform measure won the hearts of the people, and Emperor Chongzhen suddenly became wise. This reform is unprecedented in history.

The calm in front of him may be a harbinger of a storm coming. A scout reported that Qin Liangyu had been recruiting troops a while ago.

The general guessed that Ming Dynasty should be gathering strength to attack Dongyao and us. Once the time is right, they will launch an attack immediately. "

Zhang Xianzhong:
"It should have been like this a long time ago. If Chongzhen had done this in the first place, at least we would not rebel. Let me tell you a piece of news.

Dorgon, the regent of the Eastern Captives, actually sent envoys to Daxi to ask for cooperation, and promised to share the territory with us after the overthrow of the Ming Dynasty. What do you think? "

Ainengqi Liu Wenxiu was overjoyed:

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing. The strength of the Dongbao is already higher than that of Ming Dynasty. If we can cooperate, the chances of defeating Ming Dynasty will be greatly increased. I am afraid that those barbarians will not believe what they say."

"The Emperor Can't"

Li Dingguo stood up abruptly, and bowed to Zhang Xianzhong:

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, China has been ruled by the Han people, and the barbarians must not enter the customs. Think about the harm they did to us Han people during the Mongol Yuan and Five Husbands, and we will firmly oppose cooperating with them in the end."

"Well, although the two of us are rough, I feel that what the second brother said makes sense, and we also support the second brother."

Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi also stood up and saluted Zhang Xianzhong, expressing their support for Li Dingguo.

Zhang Xianzhong was very satisfied with the performance of the three of them, but when he thought of the performance of the eldest Sun Kewang, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Yesterday, Fan Wencheng, a slave of Dongyao, came to persuade me, but I immediately refused.

He wanted to kill them, but Sun Kewang said that the two countries would not kill them when they fought, so he took Fan Wencheng away and prepared to deal with them quietly. "

Li Dingguo frowned:

"Your Majesty, the general heard that 11 mysterious people entered the Big Brother's barracks. They couldn't be Fan Wencheng and others."

Zhang Xianzhong was furious when he heard this. If this is true, Sun Kewang is guilty of deceiving the emperor. Why did he hide the number of captives in the east? What exactly is he trying to do?
"Eleven people? Why did Sun Kewang tell me that there were only five people, and that I had to go to Sun Kewang's barracks immediately to have a look."

"obey"

Zhang Xianzhong didn't doubt Sun Kewang's loyalty, but worried that he would be tempted by Fan Wencheng, so he and Li Dingguo immediately went to Sun Kewang's barracks with five hundred personal guards.

Sun Kewang's personality is a bit arrogant, and he usually feels superior in front of other people. If Li Dingguo and the others are allowed to go, it will only cause unnecessary trouble.

Sun Kewang was stationed in southern Sichuan, and it took a while to ride a horse, but Zhang Xianzhong went there in person. If Sun Kewang only killed five people and let Fan Wencheng go, Zhang Xianzhong would never spare him.

……

The deputy general of the camp gate suddenly saw an army rushing towards the barracks, and was taken aback:
"Quickly, close the camp gate, and the archers are ready."

The lieutenant general guarding the gate of the camp sent someone to inform Sun Kewang, and at the same time, he was also ready for battle, but he didn't realize that it was his own people until the team got close, and the emperor had arrived in person.

"My god, why did the emperor come here suddenly?"

He hastily ordered to open the gate of the camp, and led all the troops to pay homage to the emperor. Zhang Xianzhong ignored them at all, and directly urged his horse to come to the tent of Sun Kewang's army.

As soon as the three of them jumped off their horses, Sun Kewang ran out quickly:
"See the emperor, you are..."

"Where's Fan Wencheng?"

Zhang Xianzhong directly asked Fan Wencheng, and Sun Kewang was taken aback:
"Your Majesty, they were all killed yesterday and thrown into the mountains. Why did you forget?"

"Take me to the scene to see."

Zhang Xianzhong's tone was very severe. Although Sun Kewang was a little upset, he didn't dare to refute.

"obey"

In the name of protecting the emperor's safety, Sun Kewang took 5000 troops on the road. Zhang Xianzhong and others didn't say anything about this, they were all soldiers under his command.

The brigade quickly left the city and entered the mountainous area. Because in the territory controlled by him, not only Zhang Xianzhong himself did not suspect it, but even Li Dingguo and others did not care about it.

In a valley, Sun Kewang reined in his horse:

"Your Majesty, Fan Wencheng's corpses were thrown under the cliff in front of him. There were quite a few of them. I forgot to cut off their heads for the Emperor to see."

"six people?"

Hearing the six people, Li Dingguo was taken aback at the time, and turned his head to look at the five hundred emperor's personal guards who followed behind him, and at the five thousand soldiers under Sun Kewang's command.

Then he said loudly to Zhang Xianzhong:

"Your Majesty, let's go back. We've thrown them all under the cliff. If you don't die, you will fall to your death. Brother won't lie to you."

Zhang Xianzhong frowned at that time. Why were there six people again? He felt that Li Dingguo's tone was wrong. He had never dared to speak to himself so loudly.

If you want to say that Sun Kewang rebelled, even if you cut off Zhang Xianzhong's head, he wouldn't believe it. He treated his four adopted sons as well as his own, and Sun Kewang even tried his best to save his life.

"Sun Kewang, why are there six people? Didn't you say five yesterday? Someone said there were eleven captives. How many are there?"

Sun Kewang laughed suddenly:
"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter how much."

"Whoosh..."

Following Sun Kewang's laughter, suddenly a cold arrow shot at Zhang Xianzhong, the arrow was fast and urgent, and it reached Zhang Xianzhong in an instant.

"Be careful, your majesty, protect your majesty!"

Li Dingguo screamed, flew up from the horse, and instantly pulled out the sword from his waist and threw it at the arrow.

"Lang lang..."

The sword was neither deflected nor slanted, and shot down the arrow that was aimed at Zhang Xianzhong's throat in an instant.

But the second arrow hit Zhang Xianzhong's chest almost at the same time.

"puff……"

Without the slightest preparation, Zhang Xianzhong yelled and fell off his horse.

"emperor……"

At the same time, Li Dingguo had already arrived beside Zhang Xianzhong, bent down to help Zhang Xianzhong up.

As for the second arrow, Li Dingguo was helpless without preparation.

"emperor……"

It wasn't until this moment that Ai Nengqi, Liu Wenxiu and the five hundred guards reacted, and quickly surrounded Zhang Xianzhong tightly.

"Haha...you're not bad, I, Oboi, suddenly shot a cold arrow, but no one can block it, yet you are able to knock one into the air in your haste."
