When the Ming army in Guangxi Fucheng blocked the southern line of the State Security Ministry of the Qing army advanced into Kunming, the court they were escorting desperately fought over the movement. No one wanted to stick to Kunming, but advocated retreating to Sichuan or western Yunnan. The newly defeated King of Jin Li Dingguo also agreed to move the emperor immediately, believing that Kunming had no danger to defend. If the emperor did not move, he might be surrounded by the Qing army.

The Yongli court officials put all their hopes on King Jin. Now the King Jin said that Kunming should not be relied on. Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qian, who had originally shouted to defend Kunming, had to change his opinion and agree to the Emperor's carriage to move immediately. However, the two of them were unable to make up their minds when they went to Sichuan or western Yunnan. The King of Jin was busy deploying a new offensive against the Qing army, and there was no clear statement on where the Emperor's carriage had moved.

Liu Qing, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, insisted that the Holy Lord move to Sichuan. He said to Mu Tianbo and others: "There are many honorary towns in Sichuan in the Ming Dynasty, and there are also the thirteen Kuidong families. The total force in Sichuan is less than 100,000. Now that Yunnan cannot defend, the Holy Lord should be protected by King Jin and King Gongchang to Sichuan, and join forces with the honor towns there to compete with the Qing army. This is a complete strategy. If you go to western Yunnan, the court will be able to cut off the world and the connection between China and foreign countries will be cut off. The Ming Dynasty may not have the opportunity to rise again. If you unfortunately retreat to the Myanmar Kingdom, you may be afraid that the court and the emperor will be respected by the small country."

What Liu Qing said touched Mu Tianbo and Fu Gang. The two of them discussed with the Grand Secretary Lei Yuelong. They both felt that going to Sichuan was better than going to western Yunnan. However, officials who advocated going to western Yunnan continued to go to the palace for several days to speak to Emperor Yongli to western Yunnan, which made the emperor feel very shaking. During several court meetings, they were frowning and never mentioned anything they had to die with Kunming. In their words, they even hinted that the court officials had already made a claim so as not to escape in a hurry as before.

It is said that Ma Jixiang and others were secretly loading the goods obtained from the bribes. Wang Kun, the Sili Supervisor, also transferred the warriors from the Imperial Male Supervisor to help him load things. The internal prison and the palace maids in the palace also began to pack items. All signs indicate that the emperor seemed to have agreed to the plan to retreat to western Yunnan. In order to prevent the emperor from really giving an order to the court to retreat to western Yunnan, Mu Tianbo and Fu, the two great scholars, Lei, immediately took Liu Qing into the palace. On the street in front of the Qian Duke's mansion, where the palace was located, he ran into the hurrying Guangdong bidding envoy Xu Yingyuan and Guo Shao.

"What are you going to do?"

Mu Tianbo immediately drank the Guangdong party and asked them what they were going to do when they rushed to the palace in such a hurry.

Seeing that it was Duke of Qian and two Grand Secretary, Xu Yingyuan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted them, and then said, "The emperor wants to come to the palace to meet Your Majesty, let's discuss it."

Xu Yingyuan was about to talk about his purpose in entering the palace, but Grand Secretary Lei Yuelong interrupted him and shouted: "Do you want His Majesty to move to Guangdong when you enter the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianbo and Funa and Liu Qing were both stunned. Guangdong seemed to be able to move. It was blocked by land and could take a sea route. It was a boat to arrive in Guangdong via Annan. But thinking of the emperor's attitude towards the Duke of Guangdong Zhou Shixiang and the delay in getting the news that Guangdong soldiers and horses were coming to serve the king, the three of them gave up the idea of ​​the Holy Lord moving to Guangdong.

The Duke of Qian Mu Tianbo had incorporated the 200 Taiping Army brought by Liang Shuanghu into the Kunming defenders when Sun Kewang invaded Yunnan, so he had a good impression of this straight man. Seeing him standing behind Xu Yingyuan and Guo Shao, he wanted to persuade them to go back so as not to encounter any stumble in the palace. After all, the emperor had a bad impression of the Duke of Guangdong. If the Duke of Guangdong led a large army to serve the king, the emperor might have changed his impression of him, but they all

It was September, and there was still no news from Guangdong. The Qing army from Guangxi even advanced to Guangxi, more than 100 miles away from Kunming, with no sign of being attacked. In this way, the emperor had no good feelings for Guangdong. Don't say that Ma Jixiang and Wang Kun had said a lot of bad things about Guangdong on the emperor's side. These people from Guangdong rashly entered the palace to ask the emperor to move, but they didn't know what the emperor would think of.

Mu Tianbo, who was kind-hearted, was about to ask them to go back, but he didn't expect that the Guangdong Jie Jie envoy Xu Yingyuan coughed lightly and said, "Returning to the Grand Secretary's words, the official entered the palace not to ask Your Majesty to move to Guangdong, but to ask Your Majesty to let us take back my mistress, so that we can go back to Guangdong early."

"Miss mother?"

A Duke, two universities and a Hanlin lecturer were both stunned, and then he realized that the other party was talking about Princess Changle. The four of them were suddenly displeased. When was it time? People in Guangdong did not think about the safety of the sage, but wanted to welcome the eldest princess back to the Zhou Shi.

"Nothing!"

Mu Tianbo snorted coldly, too lazy to talk about these people, and ran towards the palace gate. The Grand Secretary Fu Gang smiled bitterly, and Lei Yuelong, who was shaking his head, ordered the sedan chairman to move faster. Liu Qing walked over to the Guangdong people without any expression.

After the big guys left, Xu Yingyuan and Guo Shao looked at each other, and they were both embarrassed. Liang Shuanghu behind him cursed unhappily: "Damn it, if the emperor had issued an order to marry our general and marry his wife, do you think I would stay in Kunming. The Manchu Tartars are about to come to Kunming soon. We won't take the wife away yet. What if the wife is asked to fall into the hands of the Tartars, would we still have the face to meet the general?"

"What can we do if the emperor refuses to let anyone go?"

Guo Shao was also helpless. As Liang Shuanghu said, if Emperor Yongli had not issued an order to marry the princess to his general, they would have gone back to Guangdong long ago, so they would not have stayed in this dangerous place. But this emperor is really true. If you marry the princess, just marry him. If you send someone out, he will be fine. The order will be gone at once, and everyone in Guangdong was so anxious that they would invite Grand Secretary Guo to the palace to urge him. The answer he got was that the empress dowager was reluctant to leave the eldest princess and wanted to keep her by her side for a while.

"You both should think of a solution quickly. The Qing army is about to reach Kunming City. If we don't get our wife back, will it really be necessary to give her wife to the Tartars?"

Guo Shao didn't say anything, but looked at Xu Yingyuan. Xu Yingyuan's eyes turned and suddenly smiled: "The officials in the city are now wondering whether to escape to Sichuan or retreat to western Yunnan. The emperor must be worried about his life. I think the chaos in the city has been going on in the past few days. If the emperor really wants to hold on to the general's wife, we will just snatch the person."

"Rob?"

Guo Shao's face twitched violently. Even though Liang Shuanghu was brave, he would be very impressed.

Xu Yingyuan looked down on them and hummed, "Look at you so cowardly, Zhu Youlang is very timid. In order to escape, he even threw away his two biological sons, and the empress dowager also threw them aside. When they really ran away, do you think he still cares about an irrelevant Princess Shaowu?"

"This" Guo Shao hesitated, "This matter is still a bit dangerous. Why don't we go into the palace and persuade the emperor to move to Guangdong? If this matter is successful, a great achievement will definitely make a fortune after we go back."

"What a fuck!" Xu Yingyuan sneered, looked around, and lowered his voice: "It's already here, I'm not afraid to tell you, actually the Grand Marshal doesn't want this emperor at all."

"Don't want it?"

Guo Shao was stunned. Liang Shuanghu also made a sudden surprise.
