Unofficial History of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty

When a total of 30 soldiers and horses from Yansui Town, Xuanfu Town, and Datong Town approached the capital at lightning speed, it happened to be sunset.Several censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who had already gotten angry with Wang Qiong and Li Shichun, who were not used to the Queen Mother Zhang's chaos, rose up, killed the guards of Yongding Gate, and welcomed the "Emperor Zhengde" and Jiang Bin.

The dust raised by the horseshoe seemed to bury the setting sun, Jiang Binxu looked towards the southern suburbs.Thinking of the scene in the twelfth lunar month, when Emperor Zhengde led his officials to walk to the rooftop to worship the sky and pray for the new year, only this living ancestor dared to be so unscrupulous.Keeping a low profile, involved in a bloodbath, but for a sentence "live up to Ming Dynasty".

But now, where is he?Entering the imperial city, can you listen to him cynically laughing and scolding "Sycophant" again?

"Report to the emperor that Wang Shangshu and General Li have raised troops in the city and are heading for Zhengyangmen."

Wu Jie nodded slightly, looked at Jiang Bin, Jiang Bin hurriedly got off his horse and knelt down and said, "I beg your orders to go."

Wu Jie on the red horse, dressed in animal-faced armor and with a stern face, is truly the majesty of the Nine Clans: "Jiang Bin and Xiao Ju, immediately lead one hundred thousand troops to Zhengyang Gate to join Wang Qiong and Li Shichun to kill the rebels. "

"Order!"

"Sun Zhen, Zhang Min."

"Chen is here!"

"Lead [-] soldiers and horses and follow behind. If there is a change, retreat immediately."

Sun Zhen was stunned for a moment, but Zhang Min accepted the order without changing his face, so Sun Zhen had no choice but to stand up after receiving the order, and stealthily glanced at Jiang Bin and Xiao Du, both of whom looked unmoved, thinking "Emperor Zhengde" Didn't the order ask him to cast stones to ask for directions?In case something goes wrong, you have to throw the car to save the handsome?

Xiao Fu naturally knew what this meant, but firstly, he was used to drinking blood on the battlefield, and he firmly believed that with the help of Wang Qiong and Li Shichun, coupled with his and Jiang Bin's determination, he would not end up in such a field where he was slaughtered by others. This is the will of Emperor Zhengde, and as a courtier, you must not disobey it. If it succeeds, it will be a first-class hero. If it fails, it will be the fate of a general.But what Xiao Fu didn't know was that it was Jiang Bin's intention to act like this. If something happened, the main force could always be preserved, and Wang Qiong and Li Shichun trusted Jiang Bin the most, and he must lead the advance army.Furthermore, it is well known that Emperor Zhengde favored Jiang Bin, so that he took the lead, which also showed that "Emperor Zhengde" believed in the battle situation, so as to stabilize the morale of the army.

When the army was ready to go, Wu Jie told in a low voice: "Don't be in a hurry, they will be vulnerable only when they are in a mess. If there is a change, you can make up your own mind."

Jiang Bin nodded and got on his horse, and headed towards Zhengyangmen with Xiao Ju with an army of [-].

The cold wind was blowing head-on, blowing away the clouds at dusk, and also blowing down the desolation all over the place.

Jiang Bin's hand holding the rein was numb from the cold, and when he opened it, there was a red mark running through his palm.I still remember when I was a child, the palm reader held his hand and said to himself: "I can't figure it out, why can't I figure it out?".Jiang Ziqing beside him tapped his palm and said, "It's always a variable."

Whose fate is the variable?Or is it a variable of Daming?

It seems to be waiting for this change to come, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, only the movement of marching, but no human voice.The avenue from Zhengyangmen to Yongdingmen is just at the southern end of the central axis of the capital. Jiang Bin still remembers that Emperor Zhengde took him through this section in a hurry when he chose the location for the restaurant.In the freezing cold that day, the long and silent army that rushed to Zhengyangmen quickly had a little bit of fire floating, like a ghost soldier who borrowed a way, with a pair of empty eyes.In this team, most of them were transferred from the capital to Nine Sides, and they always looked forward to returning, but now they come back, but with such an involuntary status, many of them have not even fought a battle before being pushed Killing each other with former comrades-in-arms, how to boost morale?Jiang Bin had expected this situation long ago, but he didn't think too much about it. These young people just haven't passed the imminent life hanging by a thread. With the word "death" at the fore, or defeat, or madness, no one can escape this gamble, and now there is no way out.

Far away, I finally saw Zhengyangmen, where only imperial chariots and carriages usually go. The loud noise of the artillery and the sound of short soldiers hitting the eardrums of the soldiers made them raise their heads as if they were frightened. They clearly couldn't see anything, but As if seeing a bull's head and a horse's face coming to summon the soul, he suddenly clenched the weapon in his hand and his steps became heavy.At this time, it was three miles away. Jiang Bin raised his hand, and the whole army stopped. Jiang Bin grabbed the reins and turned to look at Xiao Fu. The city gate was not opened, and there was no response signal. The situation was messed up by intruding rashly.

"The morale is already like this, so we have to make a decision and retreat. I'm afraid we won't be able to retreat." Naturally, Xiao Jue also knew the principle of going all out in one go.

Jiang Bin nodded, and Fang ordered the cannon to be pushed up, but there was a commotion when he heard a commotion, and when he looked up, the city gate was slowly opened.

The moving sound was like the wind coming through the window in the cold night, whimpering, like the melancholy sound of a flute, or like the cry of a wronged soul. With Li Shichun.

The figures on the horse seemed to be jumping rapidly in the firelight, one to the east, one to the west, and finally formed a dense black shadow, covering the sky and the sun.

As they got closer, Jiang Bin could see clearly that there were hundreds of stall heads and fan servants, surrounded by Zhang Rui, the supervisor of the East Factory on horseback.

Zhang Rui's knife was still dripping blood, and the mottled blood on the armor did not belong to anyone.From the door, he squinted at the army stretching outside the door, and only said: "Where is the emperor?"

During Jiang Bin's time in the palace, he was considered to be acquainted with Zhang Rui. He knew that he was good at maneuvering, so he would not stand by the Queen Mother Zhang who had never been used to him. The tone of that sentence just now was also full of eagerness.Jiang Bin and Xiao Yu looked at each other, and finally said truthfully: "Outer city."

Zhang Rui frowned, and without waiting for Jiang Bin and Xiao Fu to understand, he rushed out of the city gate with his men and horses, which caused a commotion in the army.

At this time, Jiang Bin and the others had a clear view of the scene inside the Zhengyang Gate. This was not a confrontation between two courts, it was clearly a one-sided killing.

They were all in the uniform of the Beijing army, but more than half of those wearing light yellow turbans were killed or injured. They had to escape, and those who fell behind were chopped off by their horses with a knife. It can be seen that the words "anti-rape" and "foreign relatives" were spattered with a layer of blood in the next moment.

Seeing this, Jiang Bin hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of troops.After Xiao Zi broke up, Jiang Bin went after Zhang Rui.

Zhang Rui's horse is fast, Jiang Bin always falls behind.Finally got closer, but suddenly heard a loud noise, the earth shook and the mountain shook, and bursts of flames exploded in front of him.Before Jiang Bin could yell to get down, he was so shocked that he almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, he clamped the horse's belly with his legs and hid under the horse, barely avoiding the flying nails and stones hidden in the ammunition.

Looking up, ghosts and wolves were howling in the bloody and burnt smoke.Several firemen ran out screaming for help, and several Dongchang fan servants who were seriously injured by the blast wriggled on the ground trying to escape death, but were trampled into the soil by the horseshoes.

Zhang Rui's horse had been blown to pieces long ago, but luckily Zhang Rui managed to hide in time, covered his face and rolled over, laying on the ground, now gasping for breath while propping himself up with a knife, he couldn't see how badly he was injured under the cloak.When the fog cleared again, Jiang Bincai realized that there were many casualties, and those dressed clearly belonged to soldiers from his own battalion. It wasn't until the flames burned the nearby flags that he realized that there were actually those who were ambushed and followed closely behind. The forces of Sun Zhen and Zhang Min.

But who did this?

In a panic, he heard a brisk sound of horseshoes, and stepped on the stumped limbs and arms unscrupulously to the front.The person beside him was holding a torch, which made the person's face flushed red, but there was only an extremely cold smile on that familiar face.

"What is second brother hiding?"

Jiang Bin stared blankly at the upside down face, wondering why Wang Xun is here, isn't he accompanying the capital?What about Qiao Yu?Why don't you see him?Since Wang Xun came from Wu Jie's direction, how could no one know about it...

Suspicious in his heart, like a mess, he got on the horse, but saw Wang Xun dragging the bloody two people with a rope behind the horse.

The disheveled man could no longer see his original appearance clearly, only one of them could be heard yelling: "Little bastard! Are you worthy of your elder brother?!"

Sun Zhen!It's Sun Zhen!And the person who was being dragged beside him looked more and more like Zhang Min.

This shock was no small matter, Jiang Bin grabbed the rein tightly and looked back, the men and horses he brought had already dispersed, and Xiao Ju hadn't caught up yet.

"What's the matter? Have you tasted the feeling of being disheartened?"

The face is still the same face, but why is it so strange that it seems to be just a ghost in Wang Xun's skin?

Wang Xun carefully looked at Jiang Bin's expression, as if the unbelievable surprise and indignation were the perfect offerings in front of the tablet: "You knew that my elder brother died unjustly!"

Jiang Bin seemed to have been hit by a blow. The strong smell of gunpowder made him dizzy for a while, and he had to hold the rein tightly to stabilize his figure.

Wang Xun knew, so he knew!

He knew that Wang Ji died in Jiangshan Sheji, an excuse exhausted by the authorities.

Jiang Bin thought of that rainy night, the two jugs of lamb wine, and Wang Xun muttering in front of his grave: "But who wants this long-term?"

who is it?Who told him this?

Opening his eyes again, it was still the familiar face, but it seemed that in the dark night, it was distorted into Wang Ji's appearance. With a grunt, it rolled down from his neck, and stared at him, a fellow criminal.

Jiang Bin pulled the rein violently and took a step back, but when he heard the horse neighing, he leaned over and rolled off the horse's back.

Somebody took off his helmet, pulled his hair and pressed his face on the scorched mud, and tied his hands back tightly.

There was a bloody smell in Jiang Bin's mouth, and he didn't know if it was a tear in his mouth, or the burning despair rising from his heart.

Someone shouted long live in his ear, the sound of horseshoes staggered over the numb heartbeat, and a ghostly shadow surrounded a person and came to him.

Jiang Bin was caught in a bun and had to raise his head, and saw the "Emperor Zhengde" who was looking down at him immediately.

The same face, came to the front, but just smiled.That smile was so sharp that it could cut iron like mud, cutting and gouging until Jiang Bin was so dazed that nothing but a rickety skeleton remained.

The horse under the man still recognized him, pawing the ground lightly, leaning over to look at him wheezing.

"The emperor knew that you had colluded with Zhang Rui of Dongchang, Wang Qiong of the Ministry of War, and Li Shichun, and deceived the emperor to come here in the name of getting rid of his relatives, and then deliberately left, so that the people who had been ambushing long ago would commit treason. Fortunately, I waited for the rescue in time—"

Wang Xun spoke loudly, but Jiang Bin couldn't hear clearly.In front of him, the palace lanterns seemed to light up again, one by one, stretching to the end of the palace.

There, a man was waiting for him with his hands behind his back. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he asked in a low voice, "Is it a blessing or a curse?"
