Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Li Jiantai's face turned blue and white.

Being scolded made me angry, but I couldn't find a reason to get angry.

When he heard Zuo Maodi talking about Li Zicheng, he jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on:

"Hughti! Hughti!

Then Li Zicheng, why didn't he surrender to Zhu Youjian?

Then Zhu Youjian not only pardoned Li Zicheng from all his crimes, but also appointed him as the king of Dashun.

You sound good!

Then Zhu Youjian's son, didn't he take the people's money and give Li Zicheng 500 million shi of food every year to let him go to the Western Regions..."

"Uh!

not good……"

Li Jiantai's expression changed drastically and he hurriedly covered his mouth.

Why did you let it slip...

He slapped himself viciously, his face full of annoyance.

Damn!

The emperor's father and the regent have said that Zuo Maodi cannot be allowed to know any news from the outside...

Why did I get so angry that I told these things?

Although this is a fact known to the world, Zuo Maodi, who has been imprisoned for more than half a year, doesn't know it!

'what? '

Zuo Maodi exclaimed inwardly:

'What?

Li Zicheng defected to His Majesty again?

His Majesty not only accepted Li Zicheng's surrender, but also made him king and asked him to fight in the Western Regions? ’

Zuo Maodi's face was filled with disbelief.

Looking at Li Jiantai who woke up and hurriedly covered his mouth.

Zuo Maodi understood instantly that this was probably true!

Zuo Maodi squinted his eyes and ignored Li Jiantai's annoyance.

His mind quickly expanded the map of Northland.

He successively served as the magistrate of Hancheng County, Hu Kegui Shizhong, the chief minister of Taichang Temple, the censor of Youqiandu, and Zuo Maodi who supervised water transportation and Yangtze River defense.

But he was an important minister of Emperor Chongzhen.

During the Jiashen Incident, he was patrolling the Yangtze River and was unable to return to Beijing.

After Zhu Yousong established the Nanming Dynasty Hall, he advocated fighting back.

However, Jiangnan has too much power to compromise.

In order to prevent the country from losing more at the negotiation table, Zuo Maodi stood up despite knowing that he would die if he went north.

Coincidentally, before he came to Beijing, the Qing government gathered troops and grasslands to take over Shanxi and Shaanxi.

After hearing what Li Jiantai said, Zuo Maodi was overjoyed.

it is good!

OK!

Li Jiantai's two short sentences allowed him to judge the situation clearly in an instant——

Li Zicheng was able to surrender to His Majesty Emperor Chongzhen, but he may have already suffered losses.

And His Majesty gives 500 million stones of food and grass every year...

It seems that at least Shaanxi has been saved!

Even the lowest front is likely to be maintained in Shanxi.

Only in this way can His Majesty allow Li Zicheng to go to the Western Regions.

Only in this way can His Majesty ensure the safety of transporting 500 million stones of grain and grass every year!

Rejoice!

Great joy!

Zuo Maodi wished he could look up to the sky and laugh.

He is worthy of being Emperor Chongzhen!

This is as tough as ever.

Zuo Maodi silently aimed towards the southwest in his heart, kowtowed and knelt down:

‘Your Majesty, I’m sorry that I failed to lead the troops to serve the king when the capital was in danger.

Good luck!

Your Majesty not only keeps your dragon body safe, but also protects our Han family. ’

Zuo Maodi yelled in his heart.

He wished he could fly to Nanjing and show those little bastards what it means to be the King of China.

‘Your Majesty, I can’t go back...

If there is a soul in the next life, I will serve your majesty again in front of the saddle and behind the horse!

Lao Chen......

Sir, I'm sorry for you...'

Zuo Maodi forced down the emotion in his heart, but looked at Li Jiantai.

He sneered:

"Shuzi, you three-surnamed family slave, you villain who has betrayed his ancestral lineage and forgotten his ancestors!

You thought you could become a master after taking refuge in the new master. What happens now? "

Zuo Maodi's face was full of ridicule:

"Your new master has failed one after another and abandoned his armor!

Haha, entering the customs?

Don’t you know that this is your Majesty’s plan to kill two birds with one stone!

Now, why don't you be forced to show your true form and destroy the Donglu! "

Zuo Maodi was testing, and he exaggerated his guess of the outcome of the battle by three points.

Zuo Maodi squinted his eyes and stared at Li Jiantai with sharp eyes.

As long as the results were not so great, Li Jiantai would have refuted...

Zuo Maodi said this with little confidence in himself.

If Li Jiantai hadn't slipped his words when he lost his mind just now, Zuo Maodi wouldn't have dared to think like this no matter how big his brain was!

after all……

As a senior official of the imperial court, he knew clearly what these "good ministers" of the Ming Dynasty were.

Zuo Maodi was just testing and had no idea what was going on.

He thought that he was "exaggerating" a little. If he guessed wrong, Li Jiantai would refute it.

……

Zuo Maodi was imprisoned for half a year, and everything could only be guessed.

But Li Jiantai knows!

His face was full of shock, he looked at Zuo Maodi in disbelief, and blurted out:

"You... how do you know?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiantai had a guess.

——Did someone tip off Zuo Maodi?

No wonder he vowed not to surrender to the Qing court.

It has been known for a long time that the Qing Dynasty lost its troops and generals and suffered heavy casualties!

Li Jiantai's mind was spinning rapidly.

What exactly went wrong?

correct!

Li Jiantai's eyes lit up:

Chen Hongfan also lives in Honglu Temple. In the past few days, he climbed over the wall every night to report the news about Nanming to Dorgon.

Li Jiantai thought, since Chen Hongfan can go out, maybe...

Zuo Maodi brought so many people here, and before the battle of Yao'er Dusi was settled, the imperial court's control over Zuo Maodi and others was not too strict.

At this time, after listening to Zuo Maodi’s sarcastic words...

In addition, Zuo Mao's first words really hit the depths of Li Jiantai's heart that he tried so hard to hide.

For a moment, Li Jiantai thought too much.

Could it be that Zuo Maodi already knew the real news?

He murmured...

But could not refute.

"what?"

Seeing that Li Jiantai did not refute him, Zuo Maodi's heart trembled.

Is it...

Looking at Li Jiantai who was speechless, Zuo Maodi's eyes almost popped out.

As the most outstanding diplomat in the late Ming Dynasty, Zuo Maodi was no stranger to observing words and deeds and judging the truth from the smallest details.

His thoughts were like a surge:

From the abdominal tract:

‘Could it be that the result of that battle was greater than I guessed? ’

Thinking of this, Zuo Maodi no longer bothered to ridicule Li Jiantai, and immediately shouted loudly:

"Li Jiantai, Li Jiantai!

I wonder if you have been in the court for such a long time that you can’t even see His Majesty’s wrist clearly!

Do you really think that His Majesty is something you can handle? "

Before he finished speaking, Zuo Maodi thought about Zheng Chenggong again.

He immediately continued to test:

"Thankfully you are still a cabinet minister, but you don't know that His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time!

Do you really think you can control everything?

You must not know that the emperor has already contacted the Zheng family and set a trap for you!

How is it? Does it hurt?

The troops sent by your new master were completely wiped out...

Ha ha! "

Zuo Maodi burst out laughing.

A pair of sparkling eyes stared at Li Jiantai.

Li Jiantai trembled all over:

Finished!

Zuo Maodi indeed has his own news channel...

His thoughts turned away, but he tried his best to maintain calm.

Don't let Zuo Maodi see it out!
