The internal officials came to pass the news and the group entered the Zizheng Hall, but many ministers continued to quarrel and continued to accuse Du Yinxi and others.

During this period, dozens of ministers came one after another, but most of them were He Tengjiao's faction, and the war-first faction was completely overwhelmed by the saliva of many officials.

"Your Majesty is here!" At this time, the eunuch sang loudly.

Zhu Youjian walked out of the inner hall and waited to sit on the imperial throne. The civil servants in the Zizheng Hall were still arguing, which made Zhu Youjian also angry.

"Quiet!" The emperor shouted angrily and slapped the armrest of the dragon chair, with rare anger. "The country is in danger. Why do you and other ministers of the state do the market?"

When the ministers in the hall heard the words, they finally calmed down and stood on both sides with their heads down and their hands hanging down.

"Your Majesty forgive me!" He Tengjiao was the chief minister of the cabinet and took the lead in proposing the crime. "I am really sad about the country, angry that some people are arrogant and arrogant in their own way, and they are stubborn and self-righteous, destroying the elites of the Ming Dynasty, causing Your Majesty and the court to fall into danger."

Du Yinxi was about to step forward, but Hubei Governor Fu Shangrui rushed in front of him again and replied: "Your Majesty, the stroke in Xijing City is rumored. Jiannu has already captured Yuezhou and is about to face Xijing. At this moment, the people in the city are in turmoil. Please leave quickly!"

Zhu Youjian couldn't help but tremble slightly when he heard this. The Qing army captured Yuezhou, and the gate of Hunan was opened. Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi's army could march straight into the city of Changsha.

Seeing the emperor's expression, Du Yinxi did not dare to hesitate, so he hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I am in charge of defense and have not received any news of the fall of Yuezhou. Your Majesty should not believe the rumors in the city! Now is the critical moment. If Your Majesty leaves, the army will be shaken!"

"The Duge troops and the Miluo defenders have fled back to Changsha. At this time, do you still want to hide it from Your Majesty?" He Tengjiao was furious.

Zhu Lujian frowned and looked at Du Yinxi, and asked with a calm face: "Duqing, is what Mr. He said true?"

The Miluo defenders fled back to Changsha must not be kept in the hidden danger, and the Jinyiwei will inevitably report it to the emperor later.

When Du Yinxi saw Zhu Youjian asking, his face remained unchanged, "Your Majesty, the Miluo defenders did flee, but I have not received any news of the fall of Yuezhou~~~"

After He Tengjiao got his words, he immediately interrupted Du Yinxi and said earnestly to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Miluo River is the Xijing, the last barrier, and it is less than 200 miles away from Xijing. Once Miluo defense is lost, the Qing cavalry can reach the city in the blink of an eye."

Speaking of this, He Tengjiao suddenly knelt down and made a bitter advice, "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I ask Your Majesty to move to the south immediately!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"Your Majesty, let's go to the south! I will discuss it."

"Your Majesty, leave hope for the Ming Dynasty!"

When He Tengjiao took the lead, many ministers knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and spoke sincerely, asking Zhu Youjian to leave Changsha to avoid disaster.

The Zhejiang Army has won many victories in the past two years, but the Longwu faction has lost more than the others, especially He Tengjiao, who has never won the battle with the Qing army. If it weren't for Du Yinxi's support, the Huguang battlefield would have collapsed long ago.

He Tengjiao and most of the Longwu court officials actually did not have much confidence in fighting against the Qing Dynasty. They believed that the Qing Dynasty still had an overwhelming advantage at this time. The Ming army should not fight head-on, but should preserve its strength and wait for the opportunity.

Previously, more than 100,000 Qing troops entered Chu, and the Ming army in Huguang was abandoned. This time, the Qing army attacked the capital of four provinces and gathered 300,000 troops. He Tengjiao and others believed from the very beginning that the Ming army would definitely not be able to defend Changsha.

Now the Ming army guarding the Miluo River fled back, which seemed to have verified their judgment, so we must persuade Zhu Youjian to leave.

The ministers in the hall knelt down halfway, leaving only Du Yinxi and a few others standing.

"I know your dear friends!" Zhu Youjian looked at He Tengjiao and others, feeling a little moved. In times of crisis, these ministers were able to ask him to evacuate for his safety. No matter whether their suggestions were right or wrong, they were only considered for him, and they could see that their loyalty was obvious.

If someone around Emperor Yizong tried his best to persuade Emperor Yizong, he would not have hanged himself in Beijing.

At this time, facing the persuasion of most ministers, Zhu Youjian felt a little shaken. The Qing army appeared in the Miluo River, and the situation in Yuezhou would not be optimistic. If Kong Youde and others came to Changsha, could he still hold on to reinforcements like when he was in Ruijin?

Zhu Youjian probably won't be so lucky.

Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi had more than 100,000 troops and used firearms to facilitate water transportation from Huguang. If the Qing army transferred red cannons to bombard the city, Changsha would probably not be able to hold on for much time.

At this time, the pro-war faction who was still standing was panicked when he saw so many people proposing to evacuate Xijing immediately.

When they were talking, Du Yinxi and others were unsure of the war until now. Li Guo in Jingzhou was surrounded and there was no news from Yuezhou. If the Qing army came, occupied Changsha and captured the emperor, they would definitely become sinners, but now they are retreating, and everyone obviously cannot accept it.

If the emperor left at this time, the war situation in Huguang would inevitably collapse. The Qing army rushed forward, crossed the Nanling Mountains, rushed into Guangzhou, and the Longwu court could be exiled overseas. There was not much place to lose in the Ming Dynasty.

Amid the figures of kneeling and begging, Yan Yingyuan suddenly stepped out and shouted angrily: "Your Majesty, the situation must not take a step back now. If you want to retreat, where can you retreat?"

He Tengjiao obviously had a plan, "Your Majesty, I can support Youth Majesty and retreat to Hengyang first, and then depend on the situation of the war, and then retreat to Guangdong and Guangxi!"

Fu Shangrui and others praised him, saying that He Ge's elders were planning the country properly and planned it properly.

Yan Yingyuan immediately sarcastically said, "Do you flee to Guangzhou, and then imitate Song Gaozong and go into exile to the sea?"

Although Emperor Gaozong of Song kept half of the Southern Song Dynasty, although there were some stains, his achievements could not be ignored. He could be regarded as an accomplished emperor.

However, after hearing Yan Yingyuan's words, Longwu frowned. Zhu Youjian had a lofty ambitions and actually looked down on Emperor Gaozong of Song in his heart. He did not want to become Emperor Gaozong of Song, but wanted to become an emperor like Emperor Taizu of Ming and Chengzu of Ming.

Yan Yingyuan's words made Zhu Youjian calm down instantly, and He Tengjiao knew it was broken when he saw it.

Sure enough, Zhu Youjian looked at Du Yinxi and said, "If the Qing family is really lost, will there be a chance of winning this battle?"

In the imperial society, the final decision was often made in the emperor's mind. Du Yinxi and Zhu Lujian had been in contact for a while. Although he didn't know the emperor as much as Tengjiao, he also knew the emperor's temper and habits.

Du Yinxi seized the opportunity and hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, the defenders who retreated from the Miluo River saw the Qing army invading Miluo, and the soldiers believed that Yuezhou was lost and fled in panic. What is the situation in Yuezhou now is unknown, and there are still 20,000 defenders and more than 10,000 defeated soldiers in Changsha. In addition, tens of thousands of brave young and strong people can be transferred to the village, and it may not be impossible to fight!"

He Tengjiao knew that Longwu was touched by Yan Yingyuan's words, but he did not give up. He immediately questioned: "At this time, is the Duge army still thinking about blocking the Qing army in Changsha? Well, even if the Hunan military force is drawn to guard Changsha and temporarily blocking the Qing army's attack, you just block the Qing army, but you cannot defeat the Qing army. If this continues, once Changsha falls, all the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty will be lost, and you will not be able to retreat to Guangdong and Guangxi in this way."

He Tengjiao looked at Longwu, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

Zhu Youjian's face became heavy, He Tengjiao was right. If this battle failed, all the elite troops in Huguang would be lost, and the Qing army would inevitably rush into Guangdong and Guangxi directly, and the Longwu court would be basically over.

Du Yinxi knew that at this time, he would never let Zhu Lujian be shaken, so he immediately clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, Yan Qiheng sent back the news, Sun Kewang wanted to accept the imperial edict, and the prince also launched the battle of Restoration in Zhejiang. As long as Changsha is not lost in this battle, we will not have a chance to occupy the opportunity on the outside."

Zhu Youjian raised his eyebrows, "Oh, Sun Kewang agreed to appease him?"

Sun Kewang did agree to the pacification, but he raised a condition that the Ming Dynasty could not agree to, that is, to make him the King of Qin.

Du Yinxi had just received news from Yan Qiheng. Seeing the current situation, Du Yinxi gritted his teeth and did not mention the title of king, but just nodded, "Yes! He agreed!"

Zhu Youjian was a little excited when he heard the words. The exact news of Yuezhou had not yet arrived, and Zhu Youjian did not want to be Emperor Gaozong of Song. He was silent for a moment and suddenly ordered: "Transfer my orders, first, quickly investigate the situation in Yuezhou, second, immediately draft an edict, enthrone Sun Kewang, and ask Sun Kewang to send troops, third, send the crown prince, order the Zhejiang army to quickly deter Hangzhou, threaten Nanjing, and order the Qing army to withdraw."
