"His Majesty ordered: Summon Yuan Chonghuan, Zu Dashou, Mangui, Heiyunlong and the Minister of War, Shen Yongmao to the platform." After Gao Qiqian finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Chonghuan coldly and said nothing.
When Yuan Chonghuan saw how arrogant this guy was, he was furious at first. However, thinking that this person was a favored eunuch by His Majesty, he tried to endure it without getting angry. It was really shameless. I am treating you like a green onion, and you are still kicking me.
The nose is on the face.
But when I heard a short sentence of instructions next, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Judging from the performance of the envoy and the content of the oral message, the emperor seemed to have noticed something. He asked the army to enter the city for repairs. But now the city gate is not even opened, but a big basket is hung down. What does this mean?
For a moment, he was panic-stricken and thought rapidly, assessing whether the current situation had deteriorated to the point where the emperor wanted to take measures against him.
To enter this city or not to enter, that is the question.
If you go into the city, you are afraid that you will never come back. If you don't go in, it will be like rebelling on the spot. You can't refuse at all, and you have no reason for a while. Even if you pretend to be sick, it's too late.
Gao Qiqian saw the expression on his face change, he was very ferocious, and he was a little scared. This guy was famous for his boldness, even Mao Wenlong chopped him down. He regretted it for a while. It seemed that he had lost the Sacred Heart to the emperor,
With his character, he would naturally have to look down on him.
Climbing high and stepping low was a regular routine for these eunuchs. However, something was wrong with Mr. Yuan. The thin and dark-skinned Supervisor Yuan seemed to be suffering from hysteria. His expression was ferocious at one moment and full of fear at the other.
After a while, he showed his determination again.
This was the first time Gao Qiqian saw such rich expressions on senior officials. Senior officials generally have good Qi-nurturing skills, and they can't calm down with anger. But Mr. Yuan is really as what outsiders say. Short and concise, with the appearance of
He is a small boy with a very irritable nature. He holds hands and talks about world affairs without any shame. But he dreams all day long and falls into the mist of the messengers, not knowing that he has a nightmare.
After a while, Yuan Chonghuan seemed to have thought it over clearly. He looked at Gao Qiqian and said word by word: "I would also like to invite Eunuch Gao to come and sit in my camp. I will go see Your Majesty and take him back. I will drink tea first and wait for my return."
.”
Gao Qiqian was shocked. What does this mean? Are you taking our family hostage? How brave!
"Hmph! There is nothing interesting to see in your camp. Our family doesn't care about it. Not to mention your temporary military camp, our family has stayed in the military camp of Marquis Dingyuan." Gao Qiqian looked up like a proud little rooster.
He lowered his chin and raised his eyes to the sky. He ignored him at all.
"We have finished conveying His Majesty's oral instructions, and now we are leaving. Our Royal Horse Superintendent still has many things to deal with, so excuse me." Gao Qiqian cupped his hands, turned around and left.
"Let's go. Let's see who dares to stop us." Gao Qiqian raised his orchid finger and pointed forward.
After all, he was also a figure who had fought in the Western Expeditions, and had a lot of experience on the battlefield. However, he had developed a momentum, and all the generals of Guan Ning's army suddenly shrank their necks.
"Hmph! Invite the prince to the Chinese army's tent and serve him tea. You will tell the prince about the situation of our Guan Ning Army." Yuan Chonghuan said gloomily.
Immediately, several wolf-like soldiers came forward, and without any explanation, they gathered together and left.
"Bold, bold, you dare to kidnap our family, blind your dog eyes, look who we are, our family is the paw of the Royal Horse Supervisor..."
The sound of rising and diving got farther and farther away, until it was no longer heard.
Xiaoqi and the two imperial guards were so frightened that they knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and shouted: "Supervisor, spare your life, Supervisor, spare your life, it's none of your business. We were sent by Shangguan to see off the prince."
Yuan Chonghuan smiled and said after hearing this: "Where are you thinking? The prince is a man who knows the military. Before, I went to the west with Dingyuan Marquis and won consecutive battles. I just want to ask the prince for advice on the art of war. Don't think too much. I am here.
Now I will go into the city with you to see His Majesty. Get up."
This paragraph is not made up by the author. There are historical records to prove it.
The history books of the Ming Dynasty record that Yuan Chonghuan entered the city twice. The first time was as follows:
"Jiachen, summoned Yuan Chonghuan, Zu Dashou, Mangui, Heiyunlong and the Minister of War, Shen Yongmao to the platform. Chonghuan was uneasy, so he left the envoy in the camp, and entered from Qingyi Xuanmao. First, the emperor's enemy threatened the courtiers, hoping that
The money was discussed. The same was true after seeing the above. After a long time of consolation, Chonghuan was afraid of the wise king and finally dared not say anything. The first time he asked him to lead his troops into the city, he was not allowed. He gave him mink fur and silver armor. He took off his clothes full of laurel to show his wounds, and went to Shen.
Min Zhi. They all came out together."
——"Guoyan" Volume 90, page 5505
Chonghuan was uneasy, so he stayed in the camp as an envoy and entered from Qingyi Xuanmao. He was afraid that the emperor would summon him and wanted to arrest him, which showed that he had something evil in his heart. His subsequent action was to detain the eunuch who delivered the order and put him under house arrest.
They took hostages in the camp and then entered the city.
He first showed the emperor's enemy power and ignored the courtiers, hoping to make a deal. This means that when he saw the emperor, he continued to intimidate the emperor and the cabinet. Seeing that it was impossible to lead troops into the city, he retreated and did the next best thing. He hoped to form an alliance with Jiannu under the city.
What was the purpose of leading the troops into the city? Did he want to seize the gate? Did he still have his accomplices in the city? Because Chongzhen was so clear-headed, he simply did not give him any chance from the beginning to the end. As a result, he had no way to show it.
Got it.
If he wants to seize the throne, he has two options. One is to use the Guan Ning Army to replace the Guards, control the emperor for a long time, and follow Dong Zhuo's example. The other is to help King Fu ascend to the throne.
Of course, these are all guesses, just the possibility of such operations.
At this time, Donglin had been dragged down by his various tricks. The yellow mud fell off his crotch, which was either shit or shit. As soon as Jiannu retreated, the emperor would definitely attack Donglin.
In order to protect himself, Dong Lin had no choice but to follow him until the end.
If the emperor does not give him the opportunity to lead troops into the city, he has a second plan. That is to continue to exaggerate the enemy's strength, belittle his own lack of strength, continue to intimidate the emperor and the cabinet, and promote an alliance under the city. Either of these two plans can succeed, he
The boast of returning to Liaoning in five years and the numerous illegal things he has done in the past two years can all be written off.
After a long time of consolation, Chonghuan was afraid of his superior, and finally dared not say anything. He urged his troops to enter the city, but he refused.
This section is even more interesting. The emperor just comforted him in various ways. He just didn't talk to him and ignored any of his requests. He also saw that although the emperor was less than twenty years old, he was not aggressive. He spoke and acted flawlessly. At this time, he
Already anxious, he began to act haphazardly.
He only dared to brag about the enemy's strength, and did not propose peace talks in the end. He really didn't dare. He was afraid that Chongzhen would fall out and arrest him and jail him. But he still refused to give up. Seeing that His Majesty was not getting any help, there was no chance of peace talks. He couldn't see it.
It seems that Your Majesty intends to negotiate peace.
Seeing that the peace negotiation was hopeless, he turned to requesting troops to enter the city. After talking for a long time, Chongzhen flatly refused. At this time, he was already in chaos. He was as crazy as the Governor of Wei. He had been driven by Chongzhen.
Nonsense and confusing.
He was given a coat of mink fur and silver armor, and Man Gui took off his clothes to show his wounds. He went to Shen Min and came out together.
He gritted his teeth and made up his mind to take risks and went to the city. In the end, he only got the mink fur and silver armor.
It can be seen that none of his goals were achieved and he completely failed.
It's ridiculous, Man Gui is a guy who only has muscles but no brains. He still hasn't understood what is going on. It seems that the king and his ministers are in harmony with each other, but in reality it is a struggle between swords and swords.
He was actually jealous of Yuan Chonghuan. He even behaved disrespectfully in front of the emperor and took off his clothes to show the scars to the emperor. This probably caused embarrassment to both of them. Chongzhen had no choice but to say, go to Shen Minzhi. Then he drove this idiot away.
