Just as the imperial city was conquered, the battle at the Bell and Drum Tower finally ended. Although the volunteer teams were tenacious with the support of silver, the number was limited in the end...

They are facing military households in the entire city.

The theoretical quota of the three armies of Nanjing City Defense, including the Caotun Transportation Army, is as high as 180,000, of which 120,000 Caotun is also war soldiers.

120,000 city defense forces.

Of course, in fact, quantity is another matter.

But no matter what, when the entire Nanjing military households were mobilized, the volunteers who were guarding the bell and drum tower still retreated without any suspense. But the problem was that they had nowhere to retreat at this time, because the new army led by Qi Jin had already conquered the imperial city and quickly controlled the Taiping Gate. Moreover, the new army entering from Jubao and other gates, as well as the new army chasing the Suzhou Volunteer Team from Xi'an Gate, were also squeezed over. In the end, all the volunteers were squeezed together and then fled to Jilong Mountain.

"The sinners bow to your Majesty!"

Qi Jin, who led his troops to rescue the emperor, saluted at the North Gate Bridge.

In fact, he had already received notification from Wu Weizhong and was waiting for the opportunity to take action. Wanli appeared in Yuejiang Tower. After his new army took action, a close friend immediately told him. Then he made a quick decision and gathered the new army in the large campus to enter the city and attack the palace.

Behind him was a large number of apologized nobles and officials.

The former was just rescued from the palace, and the latter came by themselves depending on the situation was not good.

"General Qi asked him to get up. The previous incident had nothing to do with you. You were also deceived by those who were weakened out of your loyalty. Let's get up."

His Majesty the Emperor quickly helped him up and said to the new generals behind him.

His Majesty the Emperor now attaches great importance to these people.

The latter got up quickly.

Then the nobles and officials also stood up...

"Have I asked you to wait?"

His Majesty the Emperor suddenly said gloomyly.

The nobles and officials were so scared that they knelt down again. They lay there and lowered their heads, and exchanged glances from time to time. It was obvious that the emperor's reaction was wrong.

"Who is in charge of the Ministry of War?"

The emperor shouted.

"Return, return, return to Your Majesty, Chen Jian, the Minister of the Pseudo-Minister of War, has gone to Yangzhou to supervise the army. In Nanjing, the criminals are the only ones who can surrender. The money of the rebel party is the pseudo-right assistant minister, and everything is up to him."

Zang Weiyi, the left assistant minister of the Nanjing Ministry of War, said tremblingly.

He was originally the right assistant minister.

The Nanjing Ministry of War originally had no left minister.

"I ask if you are in charge of the Ministry of War?"

Wanli shouted.

"Your Majesty, I am forced. Then Yang Cheng was killed by the rebel party Gao Panlong in Wuying Palace. I dare not refuse to obey! Your Majesty, I am a Shandong man, how could I mingle with these Jiangnan people? Your Majesty is kind to you, I am really forced!"

Zang Weiyi lay there crying.

"You are also a Jinshi. You should read the books of sages and admire the ancestors on weekdays and regard Wen Zhongli as a model. I don't ask you to kill the opposition party. Can you not do anything different? You are in charge of the Ministry of War. I will witness the imperial edict from Nandu. Those who are not deceived by Qi Jin and others are still in the same circle with the opposition party. I still say that it is not against the opposition party. Isn't it ridiculous? Do you think I am so stupid?

Drag to one side and kill!”

Wanli shouted.

"Well?"

Zang Weiyi, who obviously did not adapt to his style, was stunned.

He is a genuine old minister.

During the Jiajing period, he was a Jinshi and moved to Dali Temple in the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue in Beijing for more than ten years. He knew very well about His Majesty the Emperor. Even the worst plan before, he actually never thought he would be beheaded.

But this emperor...

This emperor is obviously wrong!

When did he learn to drag the sentence aside and kill?

However, just when he was shocked, Yang Feng had already walked over with a grin, and directly carried his neck and dragged it aside.

"Your Majesty, please spare me, the old minister has served for three dynasties..."

Zang Weiyi screamed.

"I have been in three dynasties and have no idea of ​​loyalty and righteousness. Isn't the decades of salary I have given you to feed you? Is it a dog? Is it a decree to Shandong and raid his family to pay for the national treasury!"

Wanli shouted.

Then Yang Feng pressed Zang Weiyi down, and the latter collapsed to the ground, which obviously could not be beheaded and could easily be cut off by the knife.

"Come on the guillotine!"

Yang Feng shouted.

There is a military household next to it to lift a guillotine as quickly as possible.

"Your Majesty, please execute the execution with a guillotine!"

Yang Feng asked the emperor for instructions.

As a loyal minister!

Just ask for more instructions.

"allow!"

Wanli said.

"Your Majesty, please spare me..."

Zang Wei, who had been crying, woke up in an instant and tried to rush towards the emperor like crazy, but the soldiers next to him immediately pressed him down and stuffed him directly into the guillotine. Yang Feng held the guillotine and stepped on the minister Zang, and suddenly pressed the guillotine down. With the blood spray, the minister Zang's head fell to the ground.

"This feels good, I feel a bit like Bao Qingtian!"

Yang Feng said with unfulfilled intentions.

While speaking, he glanced at the nobles and officials who were still kneeling.

The latter was so scared that they were all trembling.

"Who is the Ministry of Revenue?"

Wanli said.

Zhou Shixuan was shocked, but after thinking about it, he had already reported the news before, so there shouldn't be any big problem.

He quickly crawled forward.

"The criminal minister is a fake Grand Secretary, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Zhou Shixuan bowed to His Majesty."

He said tremblingly.

"I am really relieved when you sent someone to send me a letter last time."

Wanli said.

Zhou Shixuan lowered his head and breathed a sigh of relief.

"But this doesn't change the fact that you are attached to the contrary!"

Then His Majesty the Emperor shouted angrily.

"Uh, Your Majesty, I am just treating you with slander!"

"I'm not going to be a lie? It's been nearly a year since the Nandu rebellion party has been planning to rebel. I haven't seen you any paper. I've only sent a letter when my army arrived at Qingliu Pass. You said this is a lie? Then what have you been doing in the past year? I'm going to tell you what is the real lie. Sun Long, tell him, how did you do it!"

Wanli shouted.

Eunuch Sun quickly stepped forward humbly.

"When the rebels of the Nandu conspired to welcome the King of Lu, I had already submitted a memorial. After that, the rebels welcomed the King of Lu in Nandu and proclaimed the emperor, I also submitted a memorial immediately, and did not dare to delay it for a moment. After that, every move of the rebels was made, and all the rebels reported me in time. Until they were noticed by the rebels, I had to escape. Later, in order to avoid the rebels, I could only beg for a living in Nanjing, and finally saw the face of heaven and the sun and the moon again."

He said.

"Zhou Shixuan, what else do you have to say?"

Wanli shouted.

"Well?"

Zhou Shixuan was stunned.

"I think you have indeed sent me a letter. I will send you a gentle letter and give Zhou Shixuan to commit suicide!"

Wanli shouted immediately.

Yang Feng walked to Zhou Shixuan with a smile with a hanging rope.

"Zhou, Shangshu, do you need my help?"

He said enthusiastically.

Zhou Shixuan collapsed to the ground in an instant when he cried...

"It seems like I want it!"
