Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 223 Be Pingxi King and Purge Western Demons
Chapter 220: Becoming Pingxi King to Purge Western Demons

"Marshal! The army of the Qing court has been mobilized, and they are heading north!"

The commander of the Northern Expedition Corps of the Ming Dynasty who had just led troops to Shenze County, Baoding Prefecture, Song Guogong of the Ming Dynasty, and Minister Zhao Si of the Ministry of War, Commander Zhao, got the news that made him jump up from his seat before his butt was hot.

"What? To the north? Qianlong wants to escape? How is this possible? Could it be a fraud?"

Marshal Zhao really can't figure it out.

He went south with an army of 10,000+, and ran away without much fighting.

Isn't this a waste of effort?

"It's impossible to cheat, Qianlong just wants to run away!"

Chen Dewang, chief of staff of the Northern Expedition Corps, said loudly.

"We need to send Qingqi to keep an eye on Qianlong, and report the latest situation to the emperor immediately!"

Chen Dewang said.

Zhao Si nodded upon hearing this.

It would be terrible if these 10,000+ cavalry were let go.

In the future, Ming Dynasty's northern defense line will probably be too much trouble.

Zhao Si also knew what Zhu Daohua was thinking.

He wanted to use the pretext of chasing after the remnants of the Qing court to expand Ming's power to Central Asia.

But if Qianlong had 20 cavalry on hand, he might not have fled west so willingly, but would have to rely on the vast Monan, Mobei prairie and Daming to deal with.

After all, if he wanted to pursue a cavalry regiment on such a vast grassland, then why would Daming have to organize a hundred thousand light cavalry?

This cost is too high.

Therefore, it is necessary to weaken Qianlong's strength as much as possible on the Central Plains battlefield.

Zhao Si thought.

thought here.

He stood up immediately.

Song Guogong, who was already full of affluence, has basically lost weight now - he has been away as a soldier for almost a year, traveled to so many provinces, and was on horseback every day. Of course, his body fat was consumed very quickly.

Song Guogong has returned to his original fierce appearance, which is reassuring to watch.

"A few dicks hold back, the dog dick buried under Lu Xiang's dead end." Marshal Zhao cursed, and began to gather soldiers and horses again, and continued to chase Qianlong northward.

March 1794, 2 AD.

Tongguan.

For the first time in history, Qilin's king's flag, the land king of Taiping Taiguo, moved from his nest.

Qi Lin was finally willing to come out of the comfort zone of his palace because news came from the Kanto battlefield that shook the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Heaven was defeated in Daming Mansion, hundreds of thousands of troops were scattered, tens of thousands were killed, and countless prisoners were captured.

under these circumstances.

Qi Lin and his concubine Wang Cong'er entered Tongguan with their troops and horses.

"Husband, the Heavenly King has just been defeated. The whole kingdom of heaven is terrified, lest the Ming army break through and enter." Qi Lin was discussing with his wife Wang Cong'er in Tongguan's room.

Taiping and Taiguo no longer have the capital to fight.

What to do now?
It is the most urgent question before the princes and generals of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

"What should I do, why not ask for peace?" Qi Lin frowned and said.

"Peace? If there are still 10,000+ elites in the kingdom of heaven, Emperor Zhu may still pay attention to the peace. Now I am afraid that there will be no benefit at all." Wang Cong'er shook his head and said.

The truth is this truth.

When the Kingdom of Heaven is powerful, Emperor Zhu will naturally offer generous conditions.

Now that the old elite of the Taiping and Taiguo camps have basically been exhausted, it is basically impossible to have any bargaining chips to negotiate terms at this time.

The most is that everyone will be granted an idle Marquis, and then be given a house in Zhongdu, and receive some Marquis' annuity to live the future of the rest of their lives.

But already used to being rich and honored, how can he endure the life of a marginalized person who is close to house arrest?
At least Qi Lin and Wang Cong'er were unwilling.

"Oh, what did you fight back then? Emperor Zhu wanted to give King Pingxi a future, so he insisted on fighting. It's good now, I lost all my money." Qi Lin shook his head and sighed.

"Husband, the King of Heaven cannot be King Pingxi, but that doesn't mean that the Emperor of Ming doesn't need King Pingxi!" Wang Cong'er's beautiful eyes flashed, a shrewd look appeared on her face, and she said in a low voice.

"Oh?" Qi Lin was taken aback, "Then who will be King Pingxi?"

"Of course it's you, husband."

"Me?" Qi Lin's complexion changed, "How is this possible, the Heavenly King is still there, what should I do as King Pingxi?"

When Qi Lin said this, he suddenly stopped and stared at Wang Cong'er.

"You want to betray the king?!"

Wang Cong'er smiled, under the slender crescent eyebrows, the almond-shaped eyes narrowed into a line, and the corners of the mouth slightly raised.

Seeing that Qi Lin was shocked.

His wife is very beautiful.

But she is a well-known shrew.

He didn't dare to provoke him either.

In his eyes at this time.

The woman in front of her seemed to have turned into a poisonous snake, and the slits in her eyes revealed a cold light of ambition.

"How can this be a betrayal?" Wang Cong'er said, "This is a way out for the king of heaven, and it is also a way out for our heavenly kingdom."

"The way out." Qi Lin was stunned for a moment, "Where is the way out?"

"The Heavenly King led the army to fight against the Great Ming in the Central Plains, all because of the Heavenly King's own ambition to dominate the world. Our Heavenly Kingdom was originally loyal to the Great Ming." Wang Cong'er said.

"Aren't you referring to a deer as a horse, and confounding right and wrong?" Qi Lin shook his head again and again.

"Where does it mean that a deer is a horse, and there is a reversal of black and white. I ask you, does our White Lotus Sect have a saying that "Maitreya is born, King Ming is born"?"

"This." Qi Lin's expression changed.

Maitreya was born, King Ming was born.

It is indeed a saying shared by all schools of the White Lotus Sect.

"Yes, there is, but this King of Ming is not that King of Ming"

"Heh, if that's the case, then why did Liu Zhixie change it to "Maitreya is born, and the king of heaven is born"?" Wang Cong'er sneered, "So our kingdom of heaven was originally born in response to the birth of King Ming, who was born to cleanse the demons and bring peace to the world. , this King Ming is the Son of Heaven, not Liu Zhixie, isn't he?"

Yes, of course it is.

Da Mingzi won.

He must be King Ming.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be nonsense that King Ming of the White Lotus Sect was born.

"King Ming must be the Son of Ming!" Wang Cong'er said, "So this Liu Zhixie is tampering with the canon. His Heavenly King is fake, but the King of Ming is the real King of Ming. We in Taiping and Taiguo must obey the orders of King Zhenming, and It's not the order of Liu Zhixie, the fake heavenly king."

This... can it be rounded?

Qi Lin smiled bitterly: "That day the king is not, what should Liu Zhixie do?"

"Naturally, we will arrest it and give it to the Son of Heaven to decide. In addition, we will also take the initiative to invite King Pingxi to be the sword of King Ming to wipe out the demons."

"Where are the demons?"

Qi Lin asked.

"It's been said that it's King Pingxi, so it's naturally in the west."

Wang Cong'er said.

King of Taiping
Uh, now Liu Zhixie, who has been identified as a "false king" by Qi Lin, the land king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and his concubine Wang Cong'er, arrived in Tongguan with hundreds of remnants of soldiers.

"It's finally here." Liu Zhixie's face was gloomy.

When he left Tongguan.

But there are hundreds of thousands of troops, mighty and unstoppable, at that time, it felt as if the whole world could not withstand the blow of the army of the kingdom of heaven.

And in less than a year.

With an army of 10,000+, there are only a few hundred riders around me.

"The king of heaven is the king's banner of the king of the earth. It seems that the king of the earth has come to meet us."

Ran Tianyuan pointed to the King Qi Lin flag floating on the city wall and said.

Liu Zhixie took a deep breath.

"Let's go, enter the customs."

With the opening of Tongguan gate.

Liu Zhixie led the troops to Tongguan.

Along the way, the more he looked at it, the more strange it became.

The soldiers guarding the gate look very unfamiliar.

Just when Liu Zhixie was thinking.

He saw Qi Lin and his concubine Wang Cong'er waiting in front of him.

Why is Wang Cong'er here?

Liu Zhixie was slightly taken aback.

he knows.

When Wang Cong'er used to preach, she often acted as "asking the gods to come up", and she was very good at playing tricks.

But after entering Chang'an, she became her own princess in peace.

I didn't expect to see him coming in Tongguan.

Just as Liu Zhixie was thinking, he had already arrived in front of Qi Lin.

Turning over and dismounting, he saw both Qi Lin and Wang Cong'er had serious faces.

Just now.

Wang Cong'er suddenly trembled.

The voice suddenly became slender and sharp.

"I am a lifeless old mother, so hurry up and kneel down to greet me."

Why are you playing here and asking God to come up with you?Now the Kingdom of Heaven does not need missions anymore.

Liu Zhixie thought.

Just now.

There was a sudden clatter of kneeling around.

So many soldiers?

Liu Zhixie subconsciously held his hand on the waist knife.

Just now.

Ran Tianyuan pulled Liu Zhixie suddenly, shaking his head slightly.

Everyone had to kneel down.

"The birth of Maitreya, the birth of King Ming, cleansing away the demons. The Son of Heaven is the King of Ming. Liu Zhixie, you pretend to be the King of Heaven and conceal the news that King Ming has been born. What should you do?"

"This"

Liu Zhixie was taken aback.

I haven't waited for him to respond.

Crash.

Two strong men came out carrying a sedan chair.

"Liu Zhixie pretended to be the king of heaven, and went to plead guilty to King Ming in person!"

Wang Cong'er said in that weird voice.

This.. This is a coup d'état!

Liu Zhixie's face turned pale.

Just now.

Many people around him started talking.

"That's right, Liu Zhixie, you said that you are pretending to be some kind of heavenly king."

"Since King Ming has already been born, we have to assist King Ming well."

"Hurry up and plead guilty to King Ming, I'm afraid King Ming will be angry if you go late."

"Yeah yeah."

Liu Zhixie heard the discussion around him.

Even Ran Tianyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't say a word, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Liu Zhixie's expression kept changing.

Of course he didn't believe in the trick of asking God to get on his body.

But he can't expose it, because he also made his fortune by these tricks.

The other is
Wang Cong'er played this hand here, and it was recognized by everyone.

This can only illustrate.
He, Liu Zhixie, is already at the end of the day.

Nothing can be undone.

Someone must be responsible for this failure.

He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

he knows.

This is the time when everyone wants to launch a scapegoat to plead guilty to the Son of Heaven in order to preserve their wealth.
He smiled helplessly.

Looking at the crowd, he said, "I'm going to plead guilty to King Ming."

After speaking, he lifted the curtain and sat in the sedan chair.

Several strong men quickly carried the sedan chair to the east.

Going with him are Qi Lin's invitation to Feng Pingxi King's Zhezi and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's surrender table.
