Wu Zheng's order to march towards Yingtian Mansion was immediately executed. Wu Zheng turned over and said to Zhang Huangyan: "Brother Xuan, come to Chunhua to calm down and wait for my news. If things are done, you can enter Yingtian Mansion again. If things fail, I will lead the army to meet you in Chunhua Town, and let's go back to Hangzhou together."

After saying that, he rode his horse away.

Looking at the smoke and dust raised by the cavalry, Sun Jiaji sighed: "I am the Ming Dynasty and have died in this kind of thing."

Xiong Rulin also sighed and said, "I know that things cannot be done, but I still have a trace of my thoughts in my heart. Now I realize that this is a false thought. If the Marquis of Jinghai can get up and stop it, we may be able to return to the court... Otherwise, you and I will also be rebellious ministers despised by the world."

Sun Jiaji smiled bitterly and said, "But if they obeyed them and deposed Princess Changping and supported King Lu, even if you and I live in the court, how can you and I be in the conscience? Since we have different ideas and do not plan together, it is better to go home and farm as a farmer earlier, and perhaps we can live this life."

Xiong Rulin said, "No, I am not willing to give up. Even if the Jinghai Hou can't stop it, I will return to Hangzhou with the Jinghai Hou. With the place of his three prefectures, I may be able to do something big. You must know that when the Jinghai Hou attacked Yingtian Mansion, he had only five thousand people under his command."

Sun Jiaji said in surprise: "What do you mean... is to fight against the court?"

Xiong Rulin said with a sigh: "What's wrong? Is this kind of court still my Ming court? His Royal Highness is so noble. Zhiting obeys Mr. Wozi's words and deposes him if he says he is deposed. This is not the rule of the ruler and his ministers. Even if he is a traitor, he is afraid that he will not be like this."

Sun Jiaji sighed, "If I really followed Jinghai Hou to Hangzhou, I would be sure that I would have truly confirmed the name of a traitor in this life."

Speaking of this, Sun Jiaji turned around and asked Zhang Huangyan who had been silent, "How to choose Cangshui?"

Xiong Rulin also looked at Zhang Huangyan. More than ten people around them also looked at Zhang Huangyan nervously.

Zhang Huangyan looked around and said, "We are going to abandon our family and keep our business, and it is difficult to destroy our family's fortune. What's the matter?"

"Of course it is to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty."

"Yes. So as long as the Jinghai Hou can persist in resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, what's wrong with us following him?"

Sun Jiaji suddenly said: "But if it is true that Master Qian said that Wu Zheng usurped the ancestral temple and sought the world, wouldn't we be aiding the evil?"

Zhang Huangyan sighed lightly: "I first met Wu Zheng in Shaoxing Prefecture. At Zhang Guowei's mansion, he once said something that made me think about it. He said that he would not be Zhu Ming, but Han Ming, the great Ming of the Han people. Since it is the wisdom of the Han people, why bother with surnames? This is just the words of Huang Yan. Everyone has different opinions and wise people must have their own choices. Huang Yan does not force it. If you can be together, then you will be with you and the same kindness. If you see different things, then say goodbye. As long as you are still a resistant Qing people, you will always meet each other in the future. When you gather together, you will not be in vain to join us. Let's go from Chunhua to Danyang."

These words made more than ten officials accompanying him hesitate, including Sun Jiaji.

They all knew in their hearts that if they followed Wu Zheng to Hangzhou Prefecture, it would be like to worship Wu Zheng as their lord and entrust their lives.

But the problem is that they believe they are wise people and wise ministers can stop their official positions and move out of power due to different political views. This is irreproachable, but if they "addict to rebel", the nature will be different. They will be despised by the world and be regarded as traitors by the historical secretary.

More than ten people, most of them bowed to Zhang Huangyan and left.

Sun Jiaji looked at Zhang Huangyan reluctantly, then Xiong Rulin, bit his teeth, and bowed: "Two brothers, take care of themselves. Although I can't go with you, even if I am a farmer, I will not forget the oath of fighting against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty that day. If I can still meet, I hope to drink with the two brothers. If the two brothers can really expel the Tartars with Jinghai Hou, I will summon the elders of my hometown and eat a pot of slurry to welcome the king's army."

Zhang Huangyan and Xiong Rulin bowed together and fell to the ground.

The three of them cried and covered their faces and parted.

When people reach every fork in the road, they will have different choices.

Unfortunately, this choice could not be made.

What can I do if the world is like this?

....

King Zhu Yihai of Lu and his party did not enter Yingtian Prefecture at this time.

The reason is that the king who moved to the capital returned to the capital city, and there are some etiquette and law.

When you escape, your life is in danger, you will naturally panic and you can escape from any door.

But when you come back, you have to go into the main entrance.

What's more, Zhu Yihai has always been self-reliant and is now going to be promoted to emperor. How could he ignore this matter of concern?

Yingtian Prefecture has thirteen city gates in four directions, southeast, west and northwest, which one is the main gate?

Of course it is Zhengyangmen.

It is opposite Hongwu Gate and can reach the Ming Dynasty Imperial City directly.

But the problem is that after King Lu and his party came from Chunhua to Yingtian Prefecture, they were at Jubao Gate, which is the city gate that Shen Wansan donated to build.

Not far from Jubao Gate is Yuecheng, which is where the Qian family’s uncle and nephew train the new army.

Qian Sule specifically thought about choosing to enter the city from Jubao Gate. After all, it was the army led by his younger brother and son. Isn’t it safer?

In Qian Sule's view, as long as you enter Yingtian Mansion safely, then meet with Chen Zilong and others, support Zhu Yihai, go to the Taimiao for sacrifice, and sit on the dragon throne, this matter will be done.

The tree has already been completed, and even if it is a tiger, it has to squat. Even if Wu Zheng is not happy, would he dare to be an enemy of the world?

If he really wants to turn against each other, Qian Sule is not afraid. The new army trained by his younger brother and son, plus the 30,000 or 40,000 people under the command of Duke Xingguo, are enough to fight against Wu.

Therefore, in Qian Sule's consideration, as long as Zhu Yihai became emperor, Wu Zheng would not be able to make trouble. At worst, he would be rewarded and comforted Wu Zheng. Then the world will still be the world, and the court will still be the court, but he has changed his lord.

If this matter is really based on Qian Sule's plan, even if Wu Zheng has wings, he may not be able to catch up.

But God's will is difficult to measure, and people's will is actually difficult to measure.

Zhu Yihai, who wanted to ascend the throne and become emperor, became stubborn about entering a city gate.

He must enter through Zhengyangmen to show his orthodox identity.

This is very troublesome. If you don’t cross the city from Jubao Gate to Zhengyang Gate, you need to go around a very long road, bypass Danyang County City, to the south of Dongfu City, and then cross the Huai River to reach Zhengyang Gate.

But Qian Sule was no longer able to make the decision at this time.

Zhu Yihai, who was advocated by his ministers, was no longer the King of Lu, but the governor of the country and the king. As soon as he entered the city, he would ascend the throne with the support of his ministers.

In this case, can Qian Sule strongly stop or order Zhu Yihai to enter the city immediately?
