Chapter 455
Because of the several defeats of the Nanling Army, Shan Yumao was furious, and he didn't want to appease anyone anymore. So, when everyone was immersed in the joy of the New Year, he directly announced the rebellion of King Cheng with an imperial decree. He has committed ten crimes, one of which is cheating death and deceiving the emperor, one is colluding with the rebellious party, and the other is colluding with Nanling.
Immediately, the government and the public were shocked. What is the emperor going to do? Could it be that he wants to give Daqi's country to Nanling?Obviously he was the one who reached an agreement with Nanling, right?When King Cheng appeared, he did not do anything to the royal family. Instead, he helped fend off the enemy. Could it be that the emperor really wanted to force King Cheng to turn against him?
However, no matter what everyone thinks, the emperor has issued an order to let Dingyuanhou Li Qiang be the commander-in-chief and lead 20 troops to arrest the rebel King Cheng.
The courtiers were suddenly worried, and one after another submitted the papers to ask the emperor to think twice, but Shan Yumao threw all the papers that refused to send troops to the ground, and said angrily: "I have already thought twice, and the king of Cheng is self-righteous. He didn't pay attention to the royal family at all, and dared to lie to his death to deceive the emperor, what do you say he didn't settle down, don't you want me to wait for him to put the sword on his neck before thinking about resisting?"
Everyone is silent, are you sure it wasn't your inaction in the face of the Nanling army's brutal massacre that forced King Cheng to show up?People are not taking your throne, so why don't you see your own people well?
The old officials could only look at each other secretly, and they all saw the worry in each other's eyes, alas!Daqi's strength is probably going to be exhausted...
Shan Yucheng got the news on the first day the imperial army set off, so he naturally wouldn't sit still, and reacted immediately, but it was in the name of defending the country.
The emperor does not distinguish between loyalty and traitors, and does not care about the life and death of the people. I, Shan Yucheng, originally wanted to go back to the countryside and be an ordinary person, but I heard that the Nanling Army slaughtered the people of Daqi again and again. As a loyal minister and general of Daqi, I naturally couldn't just stand by , let alone watch the country destroyed by the calls from our ancestors.
The people were already dissatisfied with the imperial court. Who in Jingyang Mansion, Lingyun Mansion, and even Huan'an Mansion didn't know that King Cheng and Princess Cheng loved the people like children?How many good people's good days are provided by the princess?
Let’s talk about the canal. Although everyone has worked hard, it is because of the hard work that they have earned wages, houses and land. Now they grow peanuts and watermelons. Although they are not yet rich, life is always getting better.
And everyone knows that the imperial court increased taxes several times, but it didn't affect Jingyang at all. The reason is that King Cheng didn't increase taxes for everyone. Looking at other state capitals, many people have started to sell their children.
What's more, when the plague broke out in Linzhou, the imperial court didn't even send a single imperial doctor, and they were left to fend for themselves. If Princess Cheng hadn't researched the solution to the plague, the people who died in that plague wouldn't know what to do. how many.
How can such a person start a war for no reason?
Moreover, the emperor's inaction against the enemy's invasion really chilled the hearts of all the people.
At the same time, a man named Yu Yan from the adjacent Changxi Mansion also raised the banner of opposing Shan Yumao, and stood clearly behind King Cheng.
After Shan Yucheng regained the city captured by Nanling, he ushered in Li Qiang's 20 army.
Li Qiang did not expect that in just two years, Shan Yucheng would grow his army, which claims to be thousands of people, to 20, including cavalry and infantry; Take it up a notch.
Each person is equipped with two pairs of gloves, leather combat boots on their feet, and a military belt made of leather designed by Ningyan, on which can hang a kettle dagger, etc., which is better than the brocade belt commonly used today. Much more practical.
"Prince Cheng, I didn't expect that you really didn't die. Your Majesty really has the foresight." Li Qiang forced a smile on his face and said, "Now that the Nanling Army has been driven out of the pass, can King Cheng follow this Marquis?" I'm going to see the emperor, so that I can live up to your sincere and patriotic heart."
"Tch, you said you would go to Beijing if you let the fourth brother enter the capital?" A horse rushed out of the queue, and the man on the horse sneered at Li Qiang: "We are fighting to the death with the Nanling Army here, and you are fighting bloody battles. Where is this Marquis of Dingyuan? Now that we have won, you are ashamed to lead the army to force the fourth brother to return to the capital, and you are really ashamed to say it."
Li Qiang was about to lose his temper. After seeing the person in front of him clearly, he swallowed back his words, but he was only taken aback for a moment, and then he raised his finger and pointed at Yu Yan and said, "So you are also in fake death! Come on, give this to me. Arrest these two people who lied to death and deceived the emperor with the intention of treason, and escorted them back to the capital to wait for the emperor to deal with them!"
But what Li Qiang didn't expect was that the soldiers around him just glanced at each other and didn't step forward immediately.
"You guys, you can't do the same thing." Li Qiang slashed at the soldier beside him with his sword. The soldier didn't even have time to resist, so he died under Li Qiang's sword without even groaning.
As the little soldier fell to the ground, the soldiers around him dispersed immediately, leaving a large space around Li Qiang. ,
"You, all of you, come back to me!" Li Qiang shouted loudly, waving the bloody long sword in his hand, but unfortunately, no one obeyed his order.
On the other hand, Shan Yucheng and Yu Yan looked at him like a clown.
"Prince Cheng, is this your loyalty?" Li Qiang's expression on his face was crazy, and he ignored the soldiers, turned his head and asked Shan Yucheng and the two contemptuously: "Now you are blatantly rebelling? Got the first emperor?"
"What Marquis Dingyuan said is that the so-called officials force the people to rebel. If we can't stand it anymore, can we rebel?" Shan Yucheng sneered: "From my father to several uncles, who didn't pour their own blood into it?" Sprinkled on the battlefield? But, after laying down such a country for Daqi, how does the emperor, as the superior, do?"
Li Qiang curled his lips and refused to comment, he also knew that the emperor, especially the current emperor, had gone too far, but how could he say such words!
"You are the emperor's close minister. I don't need to point out many things. The previous emperor and the current emperor persecuted me several times. I faked my death and hid. I didn't expect your emperor to be dissatisfied and take the lives of the people seriously. , and even colluded with the enemy country, isn't it just to lure me, and then kill me?"
Shan Yucheng took a long breath and said: "Your emperor is very happy to watch the Nanling army slaughter the people of Daqi, isn't he? Are those people not his subjects? For his own selfishness, let the Nanling The five cities are bleeding like rivers, go back and ask him if he will have nightmares when he sleeps at night! Is he doing this to the ancestors in the underground?"
