Chapter 42 Survival from the dead, every step of the way
The current Chongzhen can be said to be saying nothing without surprising anyone. He opened his mouth to abdicate the throne. Jiang Guan was speechless for a moment, and others, including Yang Zhenwei, were even more stunned.
"Why, Mr. Jiang doesn't believe it? Why not take advantage of it now?"
Chongzhen didn't play his cards according to the rules, and pressed forward step by step. Jiang Gan didn't know how to continue. He didn't feel it was right no matter how he put his hands. In the end, he just hugged his chest and looked at Yang Zhenwei, saying "Come here."
Yang Zhenwei was speechless and pointed at his chin, opening and closing his mouth while making embouchures but making no sound.
Seeing that Yang Zhenwei didn't know what to say, and the others couldn't count on him, Jiang Yan simply pulled out his waist knife and placed it heavily on the table, and said sternly: "Long live your words, don't you know who is strong and who is weak now?"
This stern look made Chongzhen laugh.
"I bet you don't have the guts to kill the king."
"You!" Jiang Yan stood up as if his tail was being stepped on, grabbing the handle of the knife and looking like he was about to commit murder.
"Come on Jiang Gan, the price is different whether I live or die. Since you are pursuing profit and forgetting your roots, you must not even know this?"
After saying this, Chongzhen dragged a chair and sat down, but Jiang Yu was already standing, and his aura began to change faintly.
Jiang Guan knew clearly that Chongzhen was wanted alive by the Qing army, but he didn't expect that Chongzhen himself also knew about it.
Yang Zhenwei slowly moved back towards the door. He had felt something was wrong ever since he captured Long Live Lord, and now Chongzhen's calm and calm look gradually frightened him.
Yes, it went so smoothly, everything went so smoothly.
All of Long Live Lord's confidants were not around on the same day, and this day happened to be the day when they were going to mutiny... No, it was a coincidence, it must be a coincidence!
In fact, Yang Zhenwei already felt that he had been tricked, but he still kept using words like coincidence to comfort himself.
No matter how much I didn't believe it in my mind, my body was very honest and silently moved to the door and put my hand on the door.
Jiang Quan had been blinded by his selfishness for a long time. How could he think about this in detail? He only thought that Chongzhen was playing tricks after falling into his hands. Then he sneered and said: "So what if Jiang is willful today? You don't expect any bullshit group training."
I think Ying Neng can save you."
After saying that, he raised the knife and pointed it at Chongzhen's eyes, with mixed feelings in his heart. I killed Zhang Tianlin for you and handed over the city of Datong to you. Not only did I get no reward, but I also tried to join the army. All my hard work was in vain.
Although he didn't say this, Chongzhen seemed to have read through his mind and said to himself: "You voted for the bandits and your life was not easy. You would have chosen to rebel with or without me. I ignored the past and appointed you to your original position, but you
I think it’s not enough. I advocated reforming the army to increase its combat power, but you thought that I was touching your forbidden area and planted eyes around me for the sake of effect. This is what you, Jiang Yu, did."
"Counting you as three traitors today, why don't you feel aggrieved and feel that I wronged you first? Where do you get the face? In terms of serving the country and the people, how can you be lucky in this week? Isn't it the king's land in the whole world?
Could it be that the people who lead the land are not the royal ministers? How come the majestic Ming army has become a taboo for you generals?"
Chen Zhuo was feeling ashamed at first and then his blood boiled with emotion. Jiang Gan is a thief, but I blindly obeyed his orders! Only now did he understand the true meaning of what Ma Yaozi said before, and regretted that he should not have been confused by the abolition.
indecisive.
Chen Zhuo slowly moved his hands to his waist, intending to find an opportunity to save people.
As soon as Chongzhen finished speaking, he raised his hands and patted them gently.
"Pah, pah."
Three soldiers in the room drew knives at the same time. Seeing that the situation was not right, Chen Zhuo tried to take action, but the tip of the knife was pressed against his throat.
Soon after that, one of them stepped forward with a knife and held Jiang Yu who was caught off guard. Yang Zhenwei was pointed at the knife and put his hands tremblingly on his chest.
The soldier who held Jiang Quan hostage said loudly: "Imperial Detective Division A1, see your majesty."
"Imperial Detective Division Jiasan, please see your Majesty."
"Imperial Detective Division Jiasi, see your Majesty."
Chen Zhuo remained motionless, with a red face as he looked at the man who claimed to be the Imperial Detective Shijia San. Unexpectedly...
"I didn't expect Long Live Lord to have such a hand, Jiang Mou admires him." Four soldiers, including Chen Zhuo, have been with him for many years and are his confidants. Otherwise, they would not have been arranged to wait in the house.
Even though Jiang Yan pretends to be strong, he actually doesn't understand at all. He treats them well on weekdays, so he was instigated to rebel?
"Long live Lord, it's none of the business of villains. It was all ordered by Jiang!" Yang Zhenwei quickly raised his hands and knelt down.
Jiang Yan turned around and glared at Yang Zhenwei bitterly, this spineless bitch.
When A1 saw him moving around, he raised his knee and hit Jiang Yan's waist hard, yelling: "Be honest!"
Jiang Yao felt pain in his lower back, and looked at A1 angrily, "You are a rip-off, when I..." Before he could finish his words, A1, who was standing behind him, raised his knife and slapped it hard with the blade.
Jiang Yu on the right side of the face.
Jiang Yan was beaten so hard that his head tilted to the other side, with stars in his eyes. His right molar was broken into several pieces in his mouth, and blood slowly seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
He couldn't figure out why, he really couldn't figure it out, just based on the two sentences from Chongzhen's mouth?
In a moment, the overall situation was decided. Chongzhen stood up, looked at the three people who were restrained, and said: "Get them all under custody."
Chen Zhuo struggled and stretched out his hand to explain to Long Live Lord, but Chongzhen ignored him. Yang Zhenwei was trembling all over, feeling weak and intimidating.
Only Jiang Yu seemed to be crazy, laughing strangely with a hoarse voice: "Haha...hahahaha...I still have soldiers outside, haha...do you think...you won?"
Seeing that the traitor was still determined, Chongzhen said helplessly: "Jiang Yu, Jiang Yu, the reason why I have the patience to complete this play with you is to see if you still have the possibility of turning back as a prodigal son. You have disappointed me so much."
Jiang Quan was heartbroken when he heard this. It seemed that he was the only one who was kept in the dark about today's mutiny.
"Why."
Jiang Yu wanted to ask many questions, but there was only one answer he wanted to know the most. How could his subordinates be instigated to rebel without anyone noticing?
Chongzhen squatted down in front of him so that Jiang Yu, who had his head lowered, could see him.
In Jiang Yu's eyes, he could vaguely see that Chongzhen was tapping his left chest gently with his fist.
Then the heart-wrenching words came to my ears one by one, "You have enriched yourself by depriving your soldiers of their blood and sweat, and you still expect them to be willing to sacrifice their lives for you. Are your soldiers confused by drinking their blood? I will give you double the full salary. This is what the people want."
It turned out to be money. Jiang Quan said scornfully: "The emperor is full of copper odor and regards merchants as his close ministers. I will not accept defeat!"
Chongzhen shook his head, no longer wasting words, stood up and walked out, ignoring Chen Zhuo the whole time. When he passed Yang Zhenwei, he specifically told him: "Just tell the guard what you want to eat."
Yang Zhenwei thought that Long Live Lord had forgiven him and was overjoyed.
"You are good at killing good people and collaborating with the enemy to plot rebellion. Tomorrow you will be cut into pieces with thousands of swords. I will sacrifice you to the flag."
Yang Zhenwei was stunned on the spot with his mouth open, while Chongzhen had already walked away.
Throughout the 17 years since Chongzhen ascended the throne, very few people have been tortured by "Lingchi", and tomorrow we will add him Yang Zhenwei. This chapter has been completed!
