Chapter 380: The Last Optimus Pillar of Ming Dynasty(1/2)
Guangzhou.
In the midsummer heat, the cabinet chief Wang Xijue wiped his sweat in the sedan chair.
Then he opened the curtain apart, peeking at the bustling streets outside like a scout who was observing the enemy situation.
Several figures in blue shirts suddenly appeared in his sight.
Master Wang was so scared that he quickly put down the curtain and sat there and wiped his sweat again.
"The country will not be a country!"
He lamented heartbrokenly.
Well, since the news of the surrender of Jiangsu Song, Zhejiang, has been so cautious every day.
Although this result was not unexpected to him, it did cheat him. You must know that he represented Su Song, Zhejiang as the chief minister in the Guangzhou court. He was the Fujian and Yue Group, the chief minister, and then he showed goodwill to Su Song, Zhejiang, and then in exchange for the latter to resist in the north...
After all, a Taicang prime minister can mobilize the army and financial resources of Fujian and Guangdong to go north to reinforce Zhejiang and Susong.
That's it. Chen Dunlin.
Originally, the gentry of Guangdong wanted to leave the foreign soldiers to defend Guangdong.
But with the insistence of him as the chief minister, the court sent them to Shanghai for reinforcements, and also led a Chaozhou minister.
Although the entire army was wiped out.
After Chen Dunlin's four warships left the Yangtze River estuary, they were blocked by the Republic's Navy and were eventually sunk to the sea outside Nanhuizui, and Chen Shilang also died heroically for his country.
But now the surrender of Susong in Zhejiang is equivalent to selling Fujian and Guangdong. The new army of Fujian and Guangdong have urgently gone north to Xianxia Pass to set up defenses. The angry Fujian and Guangdong gentry also want to vent their anger at this time. Therefore, the king's chief assistant dare not even ride in a cold sedan chair in the past few days. Daxia has covered himself in an airtight sedan chair. Every time he enters the palace, it is like rushing into the tiger's den, for fear that some young scholar will find him and then summon more scholars to beat him up...
“Here!”
Suddenly there was a roar.
Wang Shoufu, who was wiping sweat, looked at the lifted curtain like a petrified one.
In the just-concluded Guangdong Provincial Examination, Huang Shijun, a Shunde scholar, appeared behind the curtain.
"Uh, Liang, Liangyuan, how do you come here?"
Mr. Wang asked with a smile on his face.
"Here, Wang Xijue is here, don't let this treacherous minister run away!"
Huang Jieyuan turned his head and shouted to the back.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of scholars flocked to him, and Huang Shijun reached out to capture Wang Xijue. Wang Ge Lao was so scared that he tried his best to hide from him...
"Liangyuan, don't mess around, don't mess around, I'm old..."
He shouted in panic.
Then the sedan chair fell heavily, and it was obvious that the sedan chairkeeper and the servants outside were driven away. Then the curtains were torn off, and more scholars' faces appeared. They stretched out their hands to grab them in. Master Wang continued to shrink back and kept pushing away his hands toward him. The arms were like evil ghosts in hell, and they were about to grab him to the irreversible land. At the critical moment of life and death, Master Wang was also a fight. He even picked up the tablet to beat him. This was made of jade, to put it bluntly, it was just a brick, but it made the scholars scream.
However, at this moment, a black and thin scholar who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old suddenly emerged from the crowd...
Then he cursed in dialect.
Then he was like a hungry tiger pounced on food, and he rushed into the sedan chair against Wang Ge Lao's tablet. He suddenly threw himself on Wang Ge Lao's body, swung his fist and punched him in an instant. The two of them were too big, and accompanied by Wang Ge Lao's screams, he suddenly knocked the whole sedan chair to the side. The scholar next to him quickly dodged away, and the whole sedan fell to the ground, and then Wang Ge Lao and the scholar came out together.
The scholar was young, and he turned over and rode on Wang Ge Lao's body. He swung his fist and punched Lutixia in Zhenguanxi. He punched Wang Ge Lao's face again...
"Elements are good at it!"
Huang Shijun exclaimed.
"Yuan Chonghuan, let go of me, you little bastard, I am the chief minister of the cabinet. Do you dare, ah..."
The unlucky Mr. Wang screamed.
Well, this is the young round doude.
He is from Tengxian and his hometown belongs to Guangxi. Now Guangxi only has Wuzhou and most of Xunzhou belong to the Wanli Dynasty, so he is included in the Guangdong Provincial Examination and takes the exam together in Guangzhou.
Of course, I will try my best to take care of it when I am admitted, after all, Guangxi is just loyal and righteous.
In fact, the imperial examinations were in chaos at this time, and localities all had the final say. Of course, they were willing to be more scholars. Whether it was county or prefecture, they tried to be lenient. When they arrived at the college entrance examination, they were Wuzhou and Xunzhou, of course they were also lenient. Therefore, Yuan Dudu, who is seventeen years old, successfully passed the third-level examination of the county government and the college, won the fame of scholars in one fell swoop. Then in this provincial examination, he also won the fame of Juren in one fell swoop, becoming the dark horse of the Guangdong provincial examination.
It can be said that he is handsome.
A seventeen-year-old Juren has an absolutely bright future. It is said that there are a lot of people who propose marriages these days.
But it is obvious that gold will shine in the end.
However, today it seems that Yuandudu is not only literary and elegant, but also has also good fist skills.
After all, Tengxian is very tough, and his family is a salt merchant. Nowadays, those who can sell salt are more or less worth their military power.
"The chief minister, the chief minister is a treacherous minister, we are the ones who are fighting traitors for the country!"
Yuandudu rode on Wang Ge Lao, and beat him wildly while angrily scolding the traitor with a stern righteousness.
There were cheers around.
Several scholars also kicked Mr. Wang with their feet.
"I am the chief assistant, I am the chief assistant..."
Master Wang continued to wail.
However, it is obvious that he was not seriously injured. After all, these scholars have limited strength and are only round and fierce. However, it is impossible to catch up with Lutixia with his fists, and they are stronger than Jin Cuilian.
"The chief assistant, you will be the chief assistant!"
Huang Shijun shouted.
"Bang!"
Suddenly a gunshot.
He turned his head in shock and looked at the large number of soldiers suddenly appearing behind him. In the middle, a military general in his thirties curled with short guns and smoke.
Yuandudu and others also looked at them.
"Are there any kingly law if you beat the chief minister in the street?"
The general said angrily.
"The rough ones from there dare to protect this treacherous minister!"
Huang Shijun said angrily.
The next moment, all the soldiers raised their guns and pointed their guns at them one by one.
Huang Shijun and others quickly shut up.
The general dismounted with a gloomy face, walked to Yuan Dudu, kicked him off Wang Ge Lao, and then helped Wang Ge Lao with blood on his face...
"Mr. Jingshi, my younger generation, Mu Rui, entered the court on his father's order."
He said.
"Who is Lingzun?"
Mr. Wang said in a daze.
"My father, Prince Qianning, these dogs and things beat the chief minister in the street. Will they be punished by the Jinyiwei?"
Mu Rui said.
Well, this is Mu Changzuo's son.
Mu Changzuo had ended his war with the three major chieftains.
In fact, it cannot be said that war is the only thing he wants is the surrender of the three chieftains, not to destroy others. So after his Yunnan-Guizhou Legion broke through Wujiang Pass, facing the army at the city, Yang Yinglong was the first to surrender, kill the envoy sent by Hongguang, and then apologized to Mu Changzuo with gold and silver. Mu Changzuo was not interested in tangling with him. Although he was confident that he could destroy Yang Yinglong, he would have to pay a huge price. Yang Yinglong just surrendered, and in this way, Yang Yinglong returned to the Wanli Dynasty.
After he surrendered, the She'an families also surrendered one after another.
After all, Mu Changzuo did not want their territory, and this was not a change of land and returning to the current situation. He forced them to have no choice but to fight to the death.
As long as you are sure that you can't beat Mu Changzuo, of course you will surrender to him quickly.
Mu Changzuo ruled the guards of Yunnan and Guizhou, and with the Han people from both places, the number of troops that could be mobilized without the constraints of civil servants was not the ones that these chieftains could compete. Originally, the three chieftains were expected to send troops to attack Guiyang. But the Hongguang Dynasty was not that stupid. The purpose of their bribery of the three chieftains was to defeat Mu Changzuo and force Sichuan to join the Hongguang Dynasty, so that they could obtain the military support of the three chieftains and other chieftains in eastern Sichuan...
They wanted the toasts to support them.
Instead, they went to support the toast?
What a joke?
Wang Xijue looked at Huang Shijun and others, who looked at him without caring, and sneered with fearlessness...
"Forget it, there are no Jinyiwei now. They are all young people, and they are a little impulsive. I just got a few punches. How can I argue with these younger generations?"
Master Wang lamented.
"Jizi beat the prime minister in the street and let it go?"
Mu Rui said in surprise.
"Criminal, don't forget whose territory you are on."
Huang Shijun took out a fan and threw it, and said calmly and indifferently.
To be continued...
