Chapter 333 The Qing Dynasty will also hold a heroes meeting
Because Geng Jingzhong confessed to the fact that he was crazy and had a good "attitude to admit his madness", Geng Jingzhong was not beheaded on the spot to "treat his madness". Instead, Geng Juzhong was responsible for escorting him to Xiangyang to meet Emperor Kangxi.
Of course, when you get to Xiangyang, you will probably be killed! Because the Kangxi who announced in Jiangxi that Geng Jingzhong escaped death because he went crazy was a high imitation. Of course, what the high imitation Kangxi said does not count.
Therefore, as soon as Geng Jingzhong arrived in Xiangyang Mansion, he would most likely die. Either he would be killed by canonical punishment, or he would be killed quietly with some poison!
Because he knew that his brother would not escape this death, Geng Juzhong could not bear to tell Geng Jingzhong about the real and fake Kangxi. When Geng Jingzhong was taken to the high imitation Kangxi Palace that day, he was only in the fake Kangxi Fuquan.
After kneeling outside the lobby for a while, he was put into the prison car. Although he felt something was wrong when he heard the voice of "Kangxi" speaking, but then everyone in the lobby regarded the person in the lobby as the real Kangxi, so he did not
Think more.
He has gone "crazy", how can he still think about this? He has to think carefully about how to live his "crazy life"!
After Fuquan captured "Crazy Jingzhong", he did not dare to leave him in Jiangxi. After all, Geng Jingzhong's army was complex and difficult to completely control. Maybe someone would try to rescue Geng Jingzhong and then keep him.
Geng Jingzhong was against the Qing Dynasty, so Fuquan asked Geng Juzhong who came with him to escort Geng Jingzhong to Xiangyang.
In order to facilitate Geng Jingzhong's death due to a "madness attack" on the road, Fuquan also thoughtfully asked Geng Juzhong to lead his own soldiers to escort them. They were not allowed to leave Jiangxi on Shi Lang's warship, lest Shi Lang follow him.
Instead, they asked Geng Juzhong and others to take the land route, first to Nanchang Prefecture, and then to Wuchang Prefecture via Jiugong Mountain... As a result, when they were crossing Jiugong Mountain, they encountered the Eight Banners soldiers who had escaped from the battlefield in Sanjiangkou Town.
They didn't just escape one or two, but came in groups. They also brought the "bad news" that "Kangxi is dead" to brothers Geng Jingzhong and Geng Juzhong!
Of course Geng Juzhong knew that the Kangxi Emperor in Jiangxi was fake, but he forgot to tell Geng Jingzhong the truth in the prison car - in his opinion, Geng Jingzhong was already a dead man. He would not have killed Geng Jingzhong on the way to Xiangyang.
Instead of letting him die after arriving in Xiangyang, it was already a sign of deep brotherhood.
What's there to talk about with a "dead man"? And Geng Juzhong didn't have time to explain the real and fake Kangxi affairs to his brothers, because Wu Sangui's army was launching an attack on Hanyang Prefecture from overland at this time, and Wuchang Prefecture was also in danger!
If the Geng family moves slowly, Geng Jingzhong may be "rescued" by Wu Sangui's people... Will Geng Juzhong, who framed his brother, still survive? Geng Jingzhong is Wu Yingxiong's good brother!
So after Geng Juzhong confirmed the news of Kangxi's death, he quickly had Geng Jingzhong taken out of the prison car and thrown on horseback, and then drove day and night to Xiangyang Mansion. Finally, he arrived at Xiangyang Mansion before Emperor Kangxi knew "the news of his death".
When Geng Juzhong and Geng Jingzhong arrived in Xiangyang, Emperor Kangxi was very worried!
After the defeat in the Battle of Jianyangshui, the Qing court's situation in Hubei was on the verge of collapse. After the victory, Wu Sangui did not immediately return to the old camp in Jingzhou to rest and recuperate, but took advantage of the victory to advance troops.
Wu Sangui first ordered his son-in-law Hu Zhuguo to lead an army all the way north to seize Jingmen Prefecture and Huya Pass, and then go north to approach Yicheng, an important place south of Xiangyang Fucheng. At the same time, Sangui also personally led the main force eastward to Qianjiang. After capturing Qianjiang, he marched along the
They marched into Hanyang from the south bank of the Han River, assuming the posture of taking Xiangyang in the north, Han and Wu in the east, and swallowing up Hubei in one go.
At the same time, Wu Sangui also incited Yang Laijia, the former commander-in-chief of Xiangyang who had been secretly communicating with him for a long time, and was now transferred to Yunyang as commander-in-chief, and deputy general Hong Fu of Yunyang to raise troops in Yunxian County of Yunyang to rebel against the Qing Dynasty. Now Yunyang
Yun County, the capital of the prefecture, has been controlled by two rebels, Yang Laijia and Hong Fu.
If Wu Sangui divides another elite force from Jingmen Prefecture into Yunyang and joins forces with Yang and Hong, then the entire Yunyang Mansion may be controlled by them.
By that time, Xiangyang, where Emperor Kangxi was stationed, would be under attack from both sides!
The situation in Hanyang is also very critical. Although Zhuo Butai and Ba Hai successfully escaped from the Wu army after Kangxi escaped from the Jianyang Water Battlefield, and also took away some of the Eight Banners' elite soldiers——
Of course, the Eight Banners elite soldiers were all very "skilled". When they saw something was wrong, they all "protected" Zhuo Butai and Bahai and fled together, leaving only the Green Camp slaves and the coated slaves for the Wu army to kill and capture!
However, Wu Sangui's offensive was still difficult for Zhuo Butai, Ba Hai and others to resist. Especially after Wu Sangui turned the green soldiers and coated minions captured on the Jianyangshui battlefield into his own cannon fodder, the army became stronger.
, in a short period of time, they defeated Qianjiang, Mianyang Prefecture, Xiantao Town, Ximakou, Caidian, Zhurushan, Huanglingji and other places, and the vanguard had already reached outside Hanyang City!
Faced with so much bad news every day, and unable to do anything, he could only watch the situation slowly collapse. Of course, Emperor Kangxi's mood could not get better. But he still had to maintain the calm and calm demeanor of a wise king at all times, and could not kill people and curse people casually.
Come to vent... He needs to calm down!
So as soon as Kangxi heard that "Crazy Jingzhong" had been escorted to Xiangyang, he immediately asked someone to escort him here - he had to vent his anger, first scolded Geng Jingzhong, and then asked someone to take Geng Jingzhong away.
Hang him up and give him a good beating. After the beating, let Geng Juzhong personally send his brother off... Watching their brothers kill each other will relieve their anger!
When Kangxi was thinking about how to relieve his anger, he suddenly heard Geng Jingzhong shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty... aren't you already dead? Didn't you have your grandson Zhu San beheaded? Why do you still want to do this?"
Here? Are you secretly expressing your condolences?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Emperor Kangxi was dumbfounded, but Mingzhu, Wang Fuchen, Xiong Cilu, Dong E and others who were waiting in the south study room of Xiangyangxing, as well as Geng Juzhong who escorted Geng Jingzhong in, were all stunned.
What kind of crazy talk is this?
You can’t pretend to be crazy like this!
Could it be that Geng Jingzhong is not pretending to be crazy, but is actually crazy?
"Geng Jingzhong, are you really crazy?" Mingzhu reacted quickly, pointing at Geng Jingzhong and questioning him.
"I, I am really crazy!" Geng Jingzhong did not dare to say that he was pretending to be crazy. After admitting that he was a lunatic, he did not kowtow to Kangxi, but stared at the stunned Kangxi for a while, "It really looks like
Ah! Sirs, where did you find this substitute? He looks exactly like the Emperor!"
substitute?
Kangxi was still confused and thought to himself: "What's wrong with this Geng Jingzhong? Why does he treat me as a substitute? Is he really crazy?"
When Kangxi was confused, Geng Juzhong, who came in with Geng Jingzhong, suddenly spoke: "Brother, kneel down quickly, that is the real emperor..."
Kangxi nodded, "Yes, I am the true emperor!"
Geng Juzhong then said: "The one who was killed by Zhu San's grandson in Sanjiangkou Town was the false emperor. That was Prince Yu!"
"What did you say?" Kangxi was shocked now - the shock was even worse than the big shock!
"Your Majesty..." Geng Juzhong was already crying, "Your Majesty, you don't know yet, King Yu, he fought in Sanjiangkou Town, Nanchang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province with the tens of thousands of Zhu San Taisun's troops heading north, and was outnumbered.
Above...In addition, Zhao Desheng, Ma Weixing and other thieves defected before the battle, resulting in a huge defeat and being captured. Grandson Zhu San mistakenly thought it was you, so they beheaded them on the battlefield in public display!"
Geng Jingzhong now understood what was going on. He quickly knelt down to Kangxi and kowtowed repeatedly: "Your Majesty, this servant has lost his mind and is crazy. He can't tell the real from the fake. I just escaped from Nanchang Mansion at Jiugong Mountain."
The soldiers of the Eight Banners all said that you were beheaded by Zhu San's grandson, so they took it seriously. But everyone said so! The slave was so confused that he believed it. The slave is really a capital crime...a capital crime!"
"What?" Kangxi was almost shocked by the pockmark on his face. Of course he knew the problem was serious!
