Chapter five hundred and twentieth the emperor escaped
"Dangdangdangdangdang"
In front of the small east gate of Kunming City, a rapid sound of gongs sounded. The curious people looked at the sound and found that several clerks from the government office were leading a dozen soldiers to post notices. The soldiers were posting a list, while the clerks shouted at the top of their voices: "His Royal Highness of Jin has an order, the people should come and see you!"
The people from all directions were attracted by the sound of gongs and the shouts of the books. They squeezed the small west gate in three layers inside and three layers inside and outside, but the people in front were staring at the list text but couldn't say what it was because they were illiterate. The people behind could not see what was written in the list text in front, and those who could read it were too far away to see the list text clearly. They could only shout desperately to ask the people in front to give in, and let them go over and tell everyone. But the crowd was crowded, so how could they squeeze through?
An anxious people saw an acquaintance in the library and shouted: "Mr. Chen Er, what is the edict of His Highness King Jin? You always want to Niannian."
Then Mr. Chen Erye was a middle-aged scholar who passed the imperial examination when the Qin King was in Yunnan. Although the Qin King had become a traitor now, the court also admitted that he had won the scholars in Yunnan. However, even if the sage moved to Kunming, he did not hold the imperial examination again. Let alone the provincial examination in Yunnan. Therefore, Mr. Chen Erye never became a scholar again. He has been working as a small scholar in the yamen for many years, barely supporting his family.
Seeing that it was the neighbor calling him, Mr. Chen whispered a few words to the team leader. After getting the other party’s consent, he walked forward a few steps, and then shouted loudly to the onlookers: “Everyone is quiet, quiet, I will tell you the quotation of His Highness King Jin.”
The crowd suddenly became quiet, and everyone was looking at Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen sighed in his heart first, and then whispered to the crowd: "Your Highness said that he has been in Yunnan for many years and has been well-behaved and supported by the people. He is also in love with the people of Yunnan. He originally wanted to share peace with the people. However, now the Qing army in the north has entered Yunnan in large numbers and the state affairs are in danger. In order to protect the court and the emperor, His Highness has to protect the sage again. This is full of dangers, with mountains and rivers far away, and Qing soldiers are pursuing him, so His Highness really cannot lead the people with him. He also asks the people to understand His Highness's difficulties. His Highness said again that he is afraid that the Qing army will massacre the people after entering the city, and the people are unarmed and difficult to resist. Therefore, His Highness blocked the Qing army for the people for a few days, hoping that everyone can evacuate from the city quickly."
"The Holy Divine Will Move Again? Evacuate?"
After hearing Mr. Chen's words, the crowd was in a stir. Some understood what King Jin said, but they didn't understand. Then they asked, "What do you want to say to us?"
"What do you say?"
Mr. Chen smiled bitterly, his tone increased sharply, and he shouted: "Your Highness asked you to escape from Kunming soon, because this Kunming city is so imminent! If you don't leave, you will suffer a disaster when the Qing soldiers enter the city!"
"ah?!"
The crowd suddenly exploded, and the timid thought of the rumors in the city these days, and she was so scared that she cried.
Someone couldn't believe it and asked Mr. Chen loudly: "The emperor is still in the city, why did your highness ask us to leave the city?"
"Emperor?" Mr. Chen twitched his cheeks, looked at the man and shook his head, "Emperor has left the city."
"ah!"
The man opened his mouth wide and looked at Mr. Chen in disbelief. The people around him knew that the disaster was coming, and the sages had left. Kunming was afraid that it would be really out of order.
"Dear villagers, don't stand here. Go home quickly and pack your things and take your wife and children away!"
After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he bowed to the crowd and hurried out to the crowd with the books and books that had long been absent-minded. They also had wives and children, and they also had relatives, so they were about to run away.
"The emperor ran away, the emperor ran away!"
"Kunming can't be defended anymore. The Qing soldiers are about to arrive. Everyone should leave the city and run away!"
""
The King of Jin sent a letter to the list of words in Kunming City at the same time. Almost at the same time, Kunming City cried and cried, and countless people fled outside the city to help the elderly and young.
In the chaos in the west city, someone shouted in the crowd: "The King of Jin has gone to the west gate, everyone, go and run with you!"
The people who were fleeing like headless flies did not know where to go after hearing this, they did not care about the truth or falsehood. They all rushed to the west gate. Sure enough, the King of Jin's army was protecting hundreds of carriages out of the city from the west gate.
"Follow the Holy Lord, follow the Holy Lord!"
"Everyone, go to the West Gate, the King of Jin, the King of Jin, has left the Xicheng, everyone, follow us!"
In Kunming City, people shouted everywhere to ask the people to go to the west city to chase the Holy Chariot. This move made Jin Tongwu, the general under the King of Jin who protected the Holy Chariot retreating west, furious, but he was unable to capture the "spy" who clamored the people to chase the Holy Chariot, and he could not drive the people away from their followers. He had to order the Holy Chariot to go quickly and must not let the people in Kunming City drag down the Holy Chariot retreating west.
After handing over the big tent of the King of Jin's army, His Highness of Jin looked at his subordinates coming from Kunming with a worried look on his face and asked, "Have the Holy Lord left the city?"
"Already out of the city."
"Okay, after the people withdraw another batch, General Jin will burn all the grain storage in the city, and do not rely on the enemy!"
"Get orders!"
The person who came answered his order loudly and flew back quickly.
Gong Chang Wang Bai Wenxuan also looked worried. He said to King Jin: "Your Highness, you really won't go to Sichuan?"
The King of Jin hesitated for a moment and finally made up his mind: "If you don't go to central Sichuan, you will go to western Yunnan instead."
Upon hearing this, Bai Wenxuan sighed and stopped persuading him, only saying, "I and His Highness and I retreat to western Yunnan. King Feng Shuangli of Qingyang, King Bo of Wugong, Prince Ai Chengye of Yan'an, but they refused to go to central Yunnan. They led their troops to move to Jianchang, Sichuan. Isn't this going to part ways with us?"
"They are not in the same mind as me. Now that the disaster is coming, why do you still have to go with me?"
Li Dingguo had an angry face. It was obvious that Feng Shuangli and the others refused to retreat west and went to Sichuan to make him angry.
Seeing that Dingguo was angry, Bai Wenxuan stopped talking. Jin Weixin, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, suddenly spoke: "Report to Your Highness, Zou Jianchen, the right envoy of Tongzheng, is unwilling to follow His Highness's plan to go west, spread rumors among the court officials, and slandered his Majesty many times. People are now in panic, and the officials are afraid that Your Majesty will listen to the slander."
"Is that right?" Li Dingguo raised his eyebrows, "Go and take Zou Jianchen down and execute him."
Bai Wenxuan was shocked after hearing this, but what surprised him even more was that King Jin casually ordered his left and right: "Go and take down the Guangping Bo Chen Jian!"
Guangping Bo Chen Jian was a general under the command of Liu Wenxiu, King Shu. After the death of King Shu, the three thousand elite soldiers of the King of Shu were commanded by Chen Jian. According to the evacuation plan, Chen Jian should lead his troops to go west with the sage. Now the King of Jin wants to send people to arrest Chen Jian. Isn’t this a mess and even more disappointing to the “Qin soldiers”!
The so-called Qin soldiers were the former subordinates of Sun Kewang who were comforted by King Liu Wenxiu of Shu. They were mainly Sun Kewang's elite troops, with about 40,000 to 50,000 troops. Feng Shuangli, Wang Hui, Ainengye and others belonged to Qin soldiers. After Sun Kewang surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Qin soldiers were the King of Shu and were afraid of King Jin, so they only followed the leader of King Shu. After King Shu died of illness, King Jin discriminated against Qin soldiers and suppressed them from many parties, which had long been dissatisfied with the Qin soldiers. This is why Feng Shuangli and others refused to retreat west with King Jin and joined forces to Sichuan. It is also why the King of Jin ordered the arrest of Chen Jian, because the King of Jin was worried that Chen Jian would also lead his troops to Sichuan with Feng Shuangli and others.
If Chen Jian was alone, the King of Jin would have no intention of killing him, but the three thousand elite soldiers of the Shu Palace under his subordinates were a rare force. At present, King of Jin and King Gongchang would have to concentrate on dealing with Wu Sangui. The only soldiers who were guarding the lords were thousands of people led by Jin Tongwu and Chen Jian's troops. If Chen Jian also followed Feng Shuangli and the others, the guards would be weak. Therefore, in case of precautions, King of Jin could only take Chen Jian down.
Bai Wenxuan wanted to tell King Jin that your order would only make the disaster worse, but looking at King Jin's firm expression, he could only swallow the persuasion. After King Jin's defeat, he became more perverted and completely different from the past. Many times, Bai Wenxuan could only choose not to speak, otherwise, King Jin would be suspicious of him.
