Chapter 611 Yonghe Garden(1/2)
Tang Zhongyuan had always acted recklessly. At this time, he asked Wang Huan about this matter but got such an answer. He frowned and immediately became unhappy.
"Are you trying to delay my time?"
In one sentence, Wang Qi was shocked, and his face was full of words such as fear and fear.
"I...I, I...I...I must not dare. How dare I be careful in front of His Majesty?"
Tang Zhongyuan looked at him and saw that Wang Qi was trembling all over his body, which was indeed not like a fake.
"I really don't know... I'll tell the truth. I want to ask my brother Zhen." Wang Ying said again.
When Wang Xiao pretended to be innocent in front of Emperor Yanguang, if Wang Yan was contrasted, Emperor Yanguang would probably see that Wang Xiao was pretending.
At this time, Wang Qi lowered his arms, leaned forward, and his knees bent. He wished he could kneel down immediately, but he did not dare to kneel down, for fear of disturbing Tang Zhongyuan.
Wang Xi was not so scared when he met Tang Zhongyuan a few times, because he was with Luo Deyuan at that time. He subconsciously felt that if Tang Zhongyuan wanted to kill someone, he must have killed Luo Deyuan first. It was still too late for him to be afraid even if he died.
This time he met Tang Zhongyuan alone, but he felt that he would be scattered at any time.
Tang Zhongyuan stared at Wang Ying for a while before speaking lightly: "Revise a book? Is it true that you really come to represent the Wang family?"
Wang Xi was stunned, thought for a while, and then said, "Hey, it seems that Brother Zhen means... that's it. I... I am a fool. I said I want to come here to have a peace talk because I was too bored in prison. But Brother Zhen agreed to let me come, maybe... maybe it's just that. Your Majesty is as wise as a torch, and he is really... a real god!"
"If so, why didn't Wang Zhen explain clearly before you come?"
"This...this," Wang Ying said: "My elder brother Zhen is a scholar, but he is just a bit pedantic...pendant."
Tang Zhongyuan sneered and said, "It's not because Wang Xiao hadn't come back yet?"
"Ah? This...I don't know."
"Turn my tongue straighten my mouth and speak!"
"Yes. It's just... it's just a small talk, not intentionally."
Tang Zhongyuan couldn't help but smile.
He was too lazy to be as knowledgeable as a little boy, so he patted his knees and began to think...
According to Tang Jie, from the perspective of entering Gubeikou, he has extraordinary combat power and is not inferior to his old camp; while Dengzhou camp, Jimo camp, and Jinzhou infantry, these three troops have some combat power when integrated.
Yao Wenhua? Yao Wenhua is just a puppet. According to the obtained Xinbao, the person behind this must be Wang Zhu.
It can support 50,000 people, but the Wang family’s money and food are so much that it is hard to see.
In addition to the Jinyiwei and Shenshu Camp in the Chu capital, a few places were added to the Chu Dynasty, nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses were attacked by the Wang family.
If Wang Xiao was willing to surrender, these 100,000 soldiers might not be all following him, but even if he only had 30,000 of them, the world would be able to sit firmly.
Such a bargaining chip is worth talking to him...
When Tang Zhongyuan thought of this, he looked at Wang Qi again, and his face finally calmed down a little.
"Do you think Wang Xiao is willing to surrender to me?"
"Ah?" Wang Qi was stunned for a moment and murmured: "Your Majesty, I am not very familiar with Brother Xiao. He used to be a dementia, and I don't like to play with him, and he doesn't go to school..."
Tang Zhongyuan seemed to be very impatient and cursed softly, "Damn it" and then said unhappily: "A fool who doesn't know anything about it."
Wang Qi was shocked and knelt down with a thump.
"But Your Majesty is wise and powerful! I think he will definitely submit to Your Majesty! It will definitely!"
"You go back to compile a book and tell you the brothers, I don't have time to rush to you. Even if you want any conditions, don't be too much. I have sincerity and let them enjoy it."
"Ah? Then how do I write this letter?"
"Just write as I just said."
“Yes yes.”
"roll."
Tang Zhongyuan sat there alone for a while and then ordered: "Go and call Lao Qi..."
At this point, Wang Xiao was caught in Tang Zhongyuan's eyes.
In the view of Tang Zhongyuan, Wang Xiao had no reason not to surrender. He had no more soldiers and horses in his hands, and he said less. He could not protect the Chu Dynasty, nor could he fight for the world.
Only surrendering to the Rui Dynasty is the wisest choice now.
Tang Qianqian also thought so. She knew Wang Xiao and knew that the only thing he wanted to do was to stop the Qing army from entering the pass and save some people.
So, over the past few days, she has tried her best to persuade Tang Zhongyuan to take into account the overall situation.
The army fought eastward and did not attack Chu Jing until now, but instead took back Shanhaiguan and drove away the Qing army. Tang Zhongyuan had reached the limit of being able to endure.
Tang Qianqian also achieved the limit she could do. She remembered Wang Xiao’s bet with her, desperately completing it, and then waited for him to come back to fulfill his promise...
In fact, when Wang Xiao came to this point, he was indeed willing to surrender to Tang Zhongyuan.
Although Wang Zhen and Wang Zhu have talked about the cause of domineering power, Wang Xiao himself does not have such thoughts.
Fighting for the world and seizing the world? He will not mention whether he is tired or not. During these days in Shengjing, he gradually realized that if he is in a position incorrectly, he will have to use countless killings to fill in the whole life.
Even Huang Taiji, even if he is Nurhaci's biological son, in order to consolidate that position, he still has to kill and plot against one relative after another in his life.
The orthodox thoughts that scholars and officials of this era have worked hard to maintain. The system of inheritance of the eldest son seems stupid, but only by seeing the bloody storm behind it can we understand that this is indeed the wisest choice.
In short, Wang Xiao did not have any desire to compete for hegemony. Since the Chu Dynasty could not hold on, he would have to vote.
If he went back, he would see that Tang Zhongyuan was not Li Zicheng. What Tang Zhongyuan did at present was not good, but this Eastern Expedition at least put the righteousness of the country before the imperial edict.
Wang Xiao came to Liaodong. After learning about the Qing Dynasty, his fear faded and his confidence increased. If he voted, with his current strength, he would still have confidence to dominate part of the Rui Dynasty's voice, and then guide Tang Zhongyuan to defend the world's door.
Then, he can help Tang Zhongyuan wipe out the world. Then, live some peaceful and simple days, just like he and Tang Qianqian are looking forward to it.
If so, as an ordinary time traveler, Wang Xiao believed that he could only do so much, and he did not want to be squeezed out more abilities and fulfill his responsibilities by this world.
He would not have overestimated his ability to support a dynasty that was doomed to perish because he had been with Princess Chunning for a few days.
On the contrary, based on his relationship with Tang Qianqian, there is no reason to stop him from surrendering to Tang Zhongyuan...
However, all this can only be done by Wang Xiao and make this decision by himself.
Wang Zhen could not replace him. Without mentioning his status and prestige, Wang Zhen could not order the Guanning Iron Cavalry to surrender.
Unfortunately, Wang Xiao did not go back.
His fate turned at this fork in the road.
With this turn, the fate of countless people in this game also turned upside down...
At this moment, Shengjing City.
The young emperor's ninth son, Fulin, has ascended the throne.
After the Qing Dynasty was disturbed by the storm and after the emperor's death, it seemed that it had stabilized again.
But this was just superficial stability. Dorgon's supporters were not satisfied with him and had to be the Regent. They had seen Haoge's strong and powerful outside, so they began to run secretly, wanting to abolish the young emperor and let the Regent ascend the throne.
The Adali of the Red Banner, and the Shuotuo of the Red Banner, began to persuade Dai Shan to sue Dorgon...
The palace eunuch slave Gui Xi did not know about the various major events that happened outside.
Gui Xi was walking into Yongfu Palace.
As a little slave, he only knew that Chu Kou rushed to the palace a while ago and destroyed many palaces.
Although the palace has been repaired now, some traces have been left in some places. Today Gui Xi was ordered to add some red paint to several walls of Yongfu Palace.
Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the original Concubine Zhuang has been canonized as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager, but the original Empress Zhezhe has not been canonized, but is only respected as the Empress Dowager of the Central Palace.
Before the emperor was young, the two empress dowagers still lived in their original palaces.
The owner of the Yongfu Palace became the Empress Dowager from a concubine, and Gui Xi, as a slave who grew up in the Yongfu Palace, was honored.
There are not many palace eunuchs and slaves in the Qing Dynasty today. Nurhaci issued an order when he was alive, asking Gebeile to castrate the slaves in his family to avoid chaos. After Huang Taiji became emperor, palace eunuchs and slaves were indispensable in the harem, but there was no perfect eunuch system.
Gui Xi naturally didn't expect to become a big eunuch, he just wanted to live safely.
Two days ago, another little palace maid died in Yongfu Palace. It is said that she accidentally fell into the well when she drank water at night. But who knows if she made any mistakes in this kind of thing and was dealt with? Gui Xi became more and more attentive in doing things, striving to do it perfectly.
So he finished repairing several places outside and looked around with the paint bucket.
Soon, he walked to a palace courtyard called Yongheyuan.
This Yongheyuan was originally an abandoned courtyard in Yongfu Palace. After the funeral of the late emperor, the Holy Mother Queen Mother placed some relics of the late emperor here, and now she came to mourn the late emperor every night.
Guixi thought that she should brush up Yong Heyuan well.
The courtyard was quiet, and there was no one there.
Thinking that the Empress Dowager had ordered that she should not come in at will to disturb her mourning the late emperor, Gui Xi's actions became lighter and lighter.
After brushing several damaged palace walls, he thought that the palace courtyard had not been cleaned for a long time, so he pushed open the door of the house to clean it.
When he swept to the main room, Gui Xi wiped his sweat and suddenly heard a sound of movement, as if it was the sound of some iron chain hitting the ground.
The sound came from a side room in the main room, with no door, only a screen blocking the door.
Gui Xi was stunned and swallowed.
He intuitively felt that this matter was not simple and he should quit.
