Shang Yi's eyes flashed, his pistol pointed at Akashi Ji again, and he said in a deep voice: "What did you do to him?"
Akashi Ji was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qian, don't worry, she just fainted, nothing happened. In fact, we didn't mean to arrest this little sister, we just happened to come here to see her.
You. To be honest, this little sister is also a little beauty. We just want to have a good talk with you, so how can we be willing to do something that brings disgrace to the scenery?"
Shang Yi snorted and said, "Whatever you do with her has nothing to do with me. But she has a very close relationship with Jinyiwei. Naturally Jinyiwei will come and cause trouble for you when the time comes."
But even though he said this, he finally walked into the room. Akashi Ji smiled sweetly, turned around and came to the table, and the two sat down opposite each other. The two women in black put Zhou Wei on the bed, and then stood in front of Akashi Ji.
behind them to show that they did not have Zhou Wei to threaten Shang Yi.
Akashiji smiled and said: "Master Qian led thousands of rural soldiers to defend Muling Pass alone. He defeated the Qing army twice and regained Linqu County. He beheaded thousands of people in total. He achieved such great achievements. It was that year
Yuan Chonghuan, I’m afraid it’s hard to compare with Mr. Qian. To be honest, I really admire Mr. Qian very much.”
Shang Yi was also a little surprised. This Xuanhuang Sect was very well-informed about the news, but his face showed no emotion as he said: "You came to see me, didn't you just come to me to praise me like this?"
Akashi Hime said calmly: "Of course not, I want to remind you, but the disaster is right in front of you. If you are not aware of it, you may not even know how you died."
Shang Yi said: "How do you say this?"
Akashi Ji said: "Even though you have made so many achievements, you think you can be appreciated by Chongzhen and promoted. Don't forget which of the officials who worked under Chongzhen got a good end, Yuan Chonghuan, Yang He, Chen Xinjia
Either you were killed, or you were used as a scapegoat by Chongzhen. Do you think you can escape? The faster you are promoted, the faster you will die."
Shang Yi naturally knew in his heart that Akashi Hime was right. Needless to say, Yuan Chonghuan's fate was that Yang He was the governor of the three sides in the second year of Chongzhen (1629) and was responsible for putting down the peasant army at that time. During the rebellion of the peasant army at that time,
It was not big yet, and it was limited to Shaanxi Province. Most people in the imperial court advocated recruiting and appeasement as the main method. Chongzhen also had this attitude. He said many things such as "The bandits are my innocent son, so it is better to caress him", and in Yang
When He sent a letter to surrender to the great bandit Shen Yikui at that time, he gave a clear reply: "Suppress the rebels and Fushun, and the edicts have been issued repeatedly" and "Yang He took the opportunity to recruit peace, and agreed to cooperate with me."
However, in the fourth year of Chongzhen (1631), after Shen Yigui surrendered and revolted, Chongzhen immediately changed his position and accused Yang He of "listening to the rampant bandits, failing to attack the sky, ruining lives, and shouldering a great responsibility" for his recruitment policy.
And dismissed Yang He from his post. If Chongzhen hadn't wanted to reuse his son Yang Sichang, Yang He might not even have been able to save his life.
Chen Xinjia was even more unlucky. In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen (1642), under the internal and external attacks of rogue bandits and Manchus, the Ming Dynasty was in danger. Under the persuasion of some ministers, Chongzhen also moved to negotiate peace with the Manchus.
He wanted to focus on dealing with the peasant army first, but because he was afraid of being criticized and betrayed by the country, he just asked Chen Xinjia, who was the Minister of War at the time, to secretly contact Manqing to discuss peace negotiations.
Unexpectedly, the peace agreement was mistakenly published by Chen Xinjia's children as a newspaper. This naturally aroused public anger and uproar in the government and the public. Faced with the accusations from the ministers, Chongzhen could only use Chen Xinjia as a scapegoat again. In July, Chen Xinjia was imprisoned, and on September 22, he was executed in Xishi.
This incident was also the trigger for the Qing army's invasion of Guan. Huang Taiji claimed that the dispatch of troops was in revenge for the Ming Dynasty's refusal to negotiate peace.
Seeing Shang Yi bowing his head in deep thought, Mingshiji thought that what he said had tempted him, and then said: "Even if Chongzhen appreciates you for a while, so what? He will definitely appoint you to either go out to fight the Tatars, or go to the Central Plains to quell the rogue bandits. I It’s not that I doubt your ability to use troops, but it’s just that it was different at that time than when you were in Muling Pass. Nowadays, evil is in power in the court, cronies are fighting, factions are fighting against each other, and traitors are included. How can a famous general be able to achieve success? Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Yang Sichang, and Lu Xiangsheng, which one of the leading army supervisors can achieve good results?"
Although Shang Yi has always been wary of Akashi Ji, he also knows that she is right. In fact, starting from the late Wanli period, the party struggle in the Ming Dynasty has been very fierce. Donglin Party, Zhe Party, Chu Party, Qi Party, Eunuch Party, etc. , it’s all up to you to sing and I will appear on the stage. In the Chongzhen Dynasty, it was even more uncontrollable. From the beginning of the purge of the eunuchs, to the later big fight between Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru, the court was in chaos.
In this general environment, the generals leading the army outside were also affected by party struggles in many aspects. Starting from Xiong Tingbi who was first stationed in Liaodong, to Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan, all of them were like this, making the situation in Liaodong worse and worse. Later, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Yang Sichang, Lu Xiangsheng and others who quelled the rebellion also experienced ups and downs, but they could not fully devote their energy to military command. As a result, the rogue bandits repeatedly escaped death and became stronger and stronger. The current Ming Dynasty is simply hanging on to its last breath, unable to maintain itself.
Naturally, Shang Yi knew these truths, but for a woman like Akashi Ji to tell them, at least it shows that she still sees the current overall situation very clearly. But Shang Yi naturally had his own plans and was not loyal to the Ming Dynasty. thought, so he was not alarmed at all, and said with a smile: "According to what you said, the best way out is for me to surrender to your Xuanhuang Sect?"
Akashi Hime smiled slightly and said: "What happened in Yanzhou was just a misunderstanding. I taught you that although you killed a few unrelated people, you don't have to stick to small details if you want to achieve big things, and you don't have to worry about certain things. And Since our sect was founded, it has been nearly two hundred years, and we have been accumulating strength with the goal of seizing the power of the Ming Dynasty. At present, we have hundreds of thousands of followers, with eyes all over the capital and 13 provinces, and money There are countless lands, and the current Ming Dynasty has no power to save it. As long as our religion raises the flag of righteousness, there will be a cloud of followers, and great things will be accomplished. And the leader of our religion is wise and resolute, magnanimous, benevolent and loyal, and polite to the virtuous. You will definitely become a wise king. By then, the chaos of the bandits will be suppressed at home, the Manchus will be rejected and the Liao Dynasty will be restored, the world will be stable, and the people will be happy, and you can also become a founding hero. Not only will your name last forever, but your descendants will be able to enjoy wealth forever."
As Akashi-hime spoke, she gave a light high-five. The two women in black next to her each took out a small brocade box and placed it on the table. Akashi-hime opened the brocade box and saw ten luminous pearls in one box. Eye-catching and sparkling, the other box contains an exquisite jade jade tower with crystal clear color and luxuriant green.
Akashi Hime smiled and said: "Our leader admires Mr. Qian very much, and to apologize to Mr. Qian for the last misunderstanding, it is just a small gift to show the leader's sincerity."
Although Shang Yi is not an appraiser, he can still see that these two things are of great value. It seems that the Xuanhuang Sect has spent a lot of money in order to attract themselves, but this kind of rare and rare treasures are still available in troubled times.
It's not as useful as real money and silver. But his face remained calm and he said: "If this is considered a small gift, then I'm afraid there are no heavy gifts in this world."
Shang Yi's reaction was what Akashi Ji had expected. She didn't expect that these ten night pearls or an emerald tower could impress Shang Yi, so she smiled slightly and said: "Our leader has always been generous and generous. If Mr. Qian thinks that the leader
It would be a big mistake to give each other nothing more than this."
As she spoke, she gave another high-five. Just hearing the sound of the ring, another woman dressed in royal attire walked out of the inner room.
This woman is wearing a brocade moon-white dress with a gilt jade belt wrapped around her waist. The upper body is slightly tight, deftly outlining graceful and exquisite curves. The cuffs are slightly open and turned outwards. It is dotted with several silver beads the size of rice grains.
It emits a soft light under the candlelight. The skirt is laid on the floor, with a few pleats folded lightly. It is simple but also reveals a bit of nobility, which further shows off her slender and slim figure. There is a palace temple on her head.
The cloud-like hair hangs straight down to her waist and abdomen. The skin on her face is as delicate as fine porcelain, and her pair of autumn eyes naturally reveal a charming and charming style.
With Shang Yi's determination, when he saw this beauty, his heartbeat speeded up a bit. Unexpectedly, the Xuanhuang Sect also used a beauty trap on him. However, if you want to fight for the world, you must attack, kill, and defend, and this period of
The military talent shown in time was obviously what the Xuanhuang Sect needed. Therefore, in order to attract him, he really spent a lot of money.
Akashi Hime smiled and said: "Her name is Xiyan. She is nineteen years old this year. The leader specially gave it to Mr. Qian. The little girl heard that Mr. Qian has married a wife, and she is also a stunning beauty, but she still needs someone around her.
Taking care of daily life, Xiyan has not only learned some skills of serving, but she is still perfect without any personnel. I believe she will be able to serve President Qian to the satisfaction."
Then he turned to the woman named Xi Yan and said, "Xi Yan, come to see Mr. Qian."
Xi Yan slowly walked towards Shang Yi, her lotus steps swaying lightly, a pair of pink embroidered shoes staggered out of her skirt, her movements were like wind blowing willows, her posture was extremely graceful, it seems that Akashi Hime said that she had received special training to be good
.Xi Yan walked to Shang Yi, bowed down and said in a soft voice: "Xi Yan has met Mr. Qian."
After getting closer, Shang Yi could clearly see Xi Yan's appearance. She was indeed beautiful and refined, with picturesque features, like a fairy under the moon. Compared with Akashi Hime, she was not inferior at all. He couldn't help but smile and said:
"Not only are you gifting rare treasures, but you are also gifting beautiful women. Your Xuanhuang Sect is so generous."
Akashi Ji also smiled and said: "I have said what needs to be said. The night is long and the sky is short, so I will let Xi Yan serve Mr. Qian to rest. The little girl will not disturb me. I will say goodbye." After that, he took the two
A woman in black stood up to leave.
At this moment, Shang Yi said: "Wait a minute."
Akashi Hime was a little stunned and said: "Is there anything else?"
