Chapter 801

When He Tengjiao came in, his attention was on the hospital bed and he was just taking care of the performance, but he didn't notice that Zheng Chenggong and Gao Yigong were both wearing knives.

Gao Yigong walked behind He Tengjiao and put the knife on He Tengjiao's neck while he was kneeling down and cried.

He Tengjiao was slightly stunned, his mind was blank, but he immediately said in surprise: "Gao Yigong, what do you want to do? How dare you be arrogant in front of His Majesty!"

Gao Yigong sneered: "Take your life!"

Since the Shunshi defected to the Ming Dynasty, he has been greatly agitated by He Tengjiao.

Back then, the Shun Army, the east and west sides, wanted to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, took the initiative to find He Tengjiao to join forces, but He Tengjiao used despicable means to not give Shun Army food and grass, and promoted the subordinates of Li Guo and others, and suppressed Li Guo and others to achieve the purpose of sowing the disintegration of Shun Army.

Later, the Shun Army had no choice but to be forced to go north. Fortunately, Du Yinxi rode alone into the camp, so he recruited Shun Army into the Zhongzhen Camp.

Afterwards, in the battle of Zhongzhen Camp attacking Jingzhou, He Tengjiao collapsed without fighting, which exposed the flanks of Zhongzhen Camp. More than 100,000 were killed by the Qing army in one battle, and all his family and supplies were lost.

Compared with the Battle of Jiangbei, Zhao Ming's 30,000 elite troops were almost destroyed. In fact, the Shun Army was much worse by He Tengjiao.

Gao Yigong had long wanted to kill He Tengjiao, but now the opportunity has come, so he will naturally not let it go.

Originally, according to the discussion, He Tengjiao was kneeling down and bowing, and took advantage of his unpreparedness and slashing it directly. However, Gao Yigong did not want He Tengjiao to die in an unknown way. He died without consciousness. He had to let him die understand and make him feel scared.

At this time, He Tengjiao was stupid and also reacted. He looked at the three of them and was furious, "Du Yinxi, you dare to kill this cabinet!"

Du Yinxi said in a deep voice: "I didn't want to kill you, but I was ordered to kill you!"

He Tengjiao's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and his heart was frightened, "How could Your Majesty issue an order to kill me? This must be yourselves!"

Although He Tengjiao has played Longwu well since he took office, he himself believes that he has worked hard to deal with Zhu Youjian.

Isn’t it also a good thing to do if you do bad things? If Zhu Youjian wants to kill him, it will really hurt Lao He’s heart. It will make him sad than die at the hands of Du Yinxi or Zhao Ming.

The emperor whom he trusted and loyally assisted wanted to kill him, but He Tengjiao would never accept that he failed in his life.

Therefore, He Tengjiao never believed that Zhu Youjian wanted to kill him, Gao Yigong and others must have taken advantage of the emperor's serious illness and was good at killing ministers, intending to usurp power.

After saying that, He Tengjiao kowtowed to the sickbed, cried bitterly, and shouted in horror, "Your Majesty~ Your Majesty!"

Gao Yigong suddenly waved his knife, a white light flashed, and blood spurted, splattering blood on the bed tent.

He Tengjiao's head fell to the ground, his eyes widened, and he didn't understand why Zhu Youjian wanted to kill him until he died.

Du Yinxi and Zheng Chenggong, looking at the heads on the ground, couldn't help but speechless. He Tengjiao, who had been in charge of the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, ended his life like this, and ending up with this end is enough to be sad.

At this time, Hao Yaoqi walked in with a blood-dropping sword and said anxiously: "He Tengjiao's confidant has dealt with!"

Du Yinxi withdrew his thoughts and immediately said in a deep voice: "He Tengjiao is executed, you can immediately read out Your Majesty's decree and say that you will be punished by the order!"

Hao Yaoqi immediately clasped his fists, "Here!"

Zheng Chenggong said: "Is it now announced the news of His Majesty's death?"

Du Yinxi shook his head, "Go to Wuchang first, and let's announce it after meeting the prince! Fu Shangrui is still in Wuchang. If you learn that Your Majesty has passed away and He Tengjiao is killed, it is very likely that he will control the prince and counter-destroy us and plot against us!"

Zheng Chenggong nodded slightly and then said, "The Pavilion Department is considerate! Then we will immediately set up the camp and march into Wuchang!"

Seventy thousand Ming troops immediately set off their camps and rushed towards Wuchang.

The next morning, Huguang Governor Fu Shangrui stood in the study, contemplating the map, planning a way out.

Yesterday, when Fu Shangrui learned that Longwu was defeated and was terminally ill, he felt particularly uneasy.

Judging from the current situation, if Zhao Ming defeated the Longwu army, he would definitely not give the court a chance to breathe, and would definitely continue to advance eastward and collect the land of Huguang.

The 300,000-strong army of the court was defeated by Zhao Ming, so how could he resist Zhao Ming?

Judging from Fu Shangrui's experience and vision, Longwu's vitality has been exhausted, and there is no way out except for surrender.

Like He Tengjiao, Fu Shangrui could not surrender to Zhao Ming.

This made Fu Shangrui extremely worried. He stared at the map and unconsciously looked at the west and north bordering Huguang.

Just as he was thinking, he rushed in panic before knocking on the door to report.

"Duxian, something big is wrong, Ge Lao He was killed!" Liu Chengyin almost cried.

Fu Shangrui's legs became weak and he hurriedly held the table with one hand, so he was not surprised to sit on the ground.

For a moment, Fu Shangrui was struck by lightning, his mind went blank, and after a while, his face turned grim: "How could this happen? Master Ge doesn't listen to me!"

Liu Chengyin said: "Governor Xian, Du Yinxi issued an order, saying that Mr. He Ge was beheaded by the emperor's order. Now the emperor asked us to open the city to welcome him, what should we do?"

Fu Shangrui came to his senses, thought for a moment, and then said anxiously: "Can't open the city! We have been trapped. Your Majesty either dies or is unable to manage the affairs. He is controlled by Du Yinxi. He Ge died too unfairly!"

Liu Chengyin said: "What should we do? They used the emperor's banner and we wouldn't be able to open the city, so wouldn't it be a rebellion?"

Fu Shangrui was full of anger and suddenly said, "No, it was them who rebelled! News came out immediately, saying that Your Majesty was critically ill, Du Yinxi controlled Your Majesty and killed Mr. He, intending to rebel! Go to the East Palace!"

Years of struggle experience have allowed Fu Shangrui to grasp the key points.

Since Du Yinxi controlled Zhu Youjian, if he wanted to unite the hearts of the people in the city and fight Du Yinxi, he had no choice but to control the prince.

At that moment, Fu Shangrui took the official hat and led the bidding camp of the Governor's Office to hurried to the Eastern Palace.

At this time, the East Palace saw a large number of soldiers coming, but the palace gate was already closed.

"Open the palace gate quickly. Your Majesty will die. Du Yinxi is plotting a rebellion. I will meet the prince and the state!" Fu Shangrui rushed forward, looked at the soldiers who were waiting for the palace wall, and shouted quickly.

At this time, a general poked his head out from the palace wall, but it was He Zhen, the commander of the Eastern Palace Guard. He glanced at Fu Shangrui and said coldly: "Duxian Fu, Your Majesty has already given an order to enter the palace. You can't open the door. You should open the city gate and welcome Your Majesty into the city!"

Fu Shangrui controlled the restless war horse under his crotch, his face turned pale. It seemed that Du Yinxi had made careful plans and had already sent personnel to the city before he attacked He Tengjiao.

However, the prince must be in his hands, otherwise he has no chance of winning at all.

Fu Shangrui was so angry that he turned his head and shouted angrily, "Attack in!"

Seeing this, Liu Chengyin hurriedly ordered his subordinates to attack the palace gate, hoping to rob the prince.

But as soon as the battle started, a cavalry came over and said in panic: "Duxian, something big is not good. Ma Jinzhong opened the city gate and Gao Yigong entered the city!"

When Fu Shangrui heard the words, he was both heartbroken and did not bother to attack the palace. He immediately pulled out his horse and ordered: "Get out quickly!"

Liu Chengyin hurriedly retreated with the troops who were sieging the city, and then followed Fu Shangrui. He didn't have time to bring money or soft money, but just took his family, and escaped from the north gate and headed for Henan.

Fu Shangrui had long thought that if the Han army came over, he would choose Zhou or Dongqing to surrender.

Originally, the best choice was to surrender to Zhou State, but Fu Shangrui was afraid of Sun Kewang's revenge, so he did not dare to go to Zhou State, so he had to choose to surrender to Beiqing.
