Ming Dynasty: A mere unruly commoner is rebelling against the heaven?

Chapter 67 Go and report to His Majesty!
On the Suzhou Road, a handsome horse is galloping.

Amulan, with a pale face, sat on the horse tiredly.

His face turned pale due to blood loss, and he was holding a bloodstained saber in his hand.

After escaping from Hami Guard a day ago, Amulang was followed by ten cavalrymen from the Turpan Khanate.

Amulan pulled out the arrow behind his shoulder, performed a simple bleeding stop, and then got into a tug-of-war with the ten cavalrymen behind him.

At this moment, there were only a few people and few horses, and Amulan was filled with fear.

He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that before he died, he would not convey the news of Ahama Khan's rebellion to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

If such important news arrives one day later, countless variables will arise.

Those brothers who died in Hami Guard are still waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to avenge them.

The heroic souls of those martyrs can’t wait any longer!

Just then, the sound of horse hooves came from behind.

The Turpan Khanate cavalry, who he had managed to shake off for a while, caught up with him again.

The leader of the group pointed his saber at Amulan and yelled.

"Stop! You can't run away, wait for me to take your head!"

"Stop! Don't run!"

At this moment, Amulang is at the end of his strength.

Looking at the cavalry chasing after him, his heart was filled with despair.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed towards him from the road in front of him.

This team of people had neat formation, solemn momentum, and a murderous aura.

Amulan's eyes widened, but he didn't wait for him to react.

In a blink of an eye, this group of people had passed him and, like a sharp sword, killed the cavalry of the Turpan Khanate behind him.

The Turpan Khanate cavalry was shocked and angry, and shouted: "Who are you? Stop meddling in other people's business!"

"Otherwise, we'll kill them all!"

The team ignored it and just kept increasing the speed of their charge.

The Turpan Khanate cavalry was furious: "You're looking for death! Charge!"

"call!"

Ten Turpan Khanate cavalrymen also began to charge, and in an instant, the two sides were fighting together.

With just one charge, ten Turpan Khanate cavalrymen were beheaded.

On the other hand, among this team, only four people suffered minor injuries.

After killing all ten Turpan Khanate cavalrymen, the leader turned his horse around and walked towards Amulan.

Amulang looked at him warily: "I am Amulang, the commander of the Hami Guard of the Ming Border Army. Who are you?"

The leader clasped his fists to him and said, "So you are General Amulang. We are the emperor's personal guards, and I am Chen Lian, a captain of the guards!"

"May I ask General Amulan why he is in such a state of disarray?"

When Amulan heard that the other party was the Jinyiwei, the string in his heart, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed.

At the same time, a huge feeling of weariness came over me.

Amulan's body swayed slightly twice and suddenly fell off the horse.

Chen Lian was quick to support Amulan with an anxious tone.

"General Amulan, what's wrong with you?"

Before falling into coma, Amulan used up his last bit of strength to grab Chen Lian's clothes.

"Hurry up and report to His Majesty that Ahem Khan of the Turpan Khanate has rebelled!"

"Hami Wei Zhongshun Wang Han Shen was killed, and 13,000 soldiers defending the city died in battle!"

"Hamiwei is lost!"

"what!"

Chen Lian was shocked!

Although since the incident of the little Tatar prince entering the pass, under Zhu Youtang's anger, the Jinyiwei surveillance network has covered the entire Ming Dynasty.

But the Jinyiwei really didn’t know that Hamiwei was lost.

One of the reasons is that Hami is too far away, unlike Datong Prefecture and Xuanfu, which are right at the gate of the capital.

The most fundamental reason is that Hamiwei was not a region directly ruled by the Ming Dynasty. The entire Hamiwei was more like a local indigenous people with a high degree of autonomy.

The Ming Dynasty court appointed a local chieftain king, and then indirectly ruled the place through this chieftain king.

For example, Han Shen, the loyal and obedient King of the Ming Dynasty, was a Uighur, and his mother was a descendant of the Golden Family of the grassland.

Therefore, the Jinyiwei's intelligence network only extended as far as Suzhou Prefecture in the northwest direction.

As soon as Amulang entered Suzhou Prefecture, he was immediately discovered by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

When Chen Lian learned that Ahama Khan had rebelled and Hami Guard was lost.

Immediately rushed to the capital city at an accelerated speed of 800 miles!
……

Forbidden City.

Hongde Hall.

Since the temperature dropped, Zhu Youtang changed the three-day morning visit to five-day morning visit.

Naturally, all the officials were grateful for this change and agreed with it.

When the former emperor was alive, he would attend court and then leave.

In the cold winter, all the officials crawled out of their beds in the middle of the night and went to court shivering.

As a result, the late emperor simply asked the eunuchs to call out the names and then adjourned the court.

This kind of operation can cause them a lot of trouble.

In this regard, the current Emperor is still merciful and does not torture them like this.

But the reality was that it was freezing cold and Zhu Youtang himself didn't want to get up so early.

Moreover, there is really not much significance in going to court, and it cannot solve any major problems.

Anyone who has held a meeting knows that for small matters, large meetings are held, and for big matters, small meetings are held.

No matter how big the task is, no meetings are needed.

Now, he can firmly control the government of the capital through the cabinet and the six ministries alone.

But as to whether the government decrees can leave the capital and reach the various states, prefectures, and villages.

That was the problem Zhu Youtang had to solve afterwards.

There was a fire dragon burning in the Hongde Hall, and the hall was as warm as spring.

Xu Pu, the chief minister of the cabinet and the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was reporting to Zhu Youtang on the officials drafted by the cabinet to be responsible for surveying the land throughout the country.

"Your Majesty, Wang Yan, a doctor of the Ministry of Revenue, is a fair and upright person. He was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Chenghua."

"He served in the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Justice, and also served as the prefect of Yuezhou and Shuzhou."

"He has experience in both the capital and local government. He is qualified to take on the important task of land surveying."

"As for the Censorate, I recommend Yang Jizong, the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate."

"Yang Jizong was a man of upright character, aloof and unsociable."

"He is also an honest official who never takes a penny for himself and is impartial in his work. He is the best candidate for the Censorate."

Zhu Youtang nodded and said, "Okay. As for the officials below, you can appoint them yourselves."

"Yes, Your Majesty. As for the West Factory..."

Zhu Youtang interrupted Xu Pu and said, "The Western Factory has its own arrangements. You don't need to ask about it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

At this moment, Mou Bin looked anxious, walked quickly into the Hongde Hall, and knelt down to salute.

"Your Majesty, I, Mou Bin, pay my respects to you. I have something important to report to you."

Zhu Youtang glanced at Xu Pu, and Xu Pu immediately bowed and took his leave.

"Wei Chen retire."

After Xu Pu bowed and left, Zhu Youtang looked at Mou Bin and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, the Royal Guards have received the news."

"Akhmad Khan of the Turpan Khanate has rebelled!"

"Zhongshun Wang Hanshen was assassinated, and 13,000 border guards died!"

"Hami Guard has fallen into the hands of Ahama Khan!"

"what?!"

Zhu Youtang frowned and became furious!
