Chapter 223 Entering the capital and returning to the palace!
Yu Shen looked miserable after falling into the city.
His hands and legs were broken and twisted into a terrifying shape. White bones penetrated the skin and blood flowed all over the ground.
All the teeth in Yu Shen's mouth were knocked out, his nose was broken, and blood flowed from his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears.
What's even more tragic is that he is not dead yet!
Yu Shen was still breathing heavily, and his body was twitching uncontrollably.
The factory guards on both sides saw this and immediately controlled him.
The Shenji Battalion who scaled the city wall immediately arrested Cao Li.
The changes in the capital gradually subsided.
The dust of the second battle to defend the capital fell to the ground.
The trapped camp and the fifth military camp stood on both sides of the road, waiting for Zhu Youtang to enter the city.
Factory guards are located in every corner of the capital, sweeping away all hidden dangers for Zhu Youtang.
The Shenji Battalion occupied the city wall, and the three thousand battalions had killed all the Liaodong border troops, and they gathered behind Zhu Youtang covered in blood.
The surrendered local troops crowded in front of the city gate and made way for Zhu Youtang to lead to the capital.
They huddled together cautiously, feeling nervous and uneasy. They didn't know if Zhu Youtang would operate on them after entering the city.
Inside and outside the city, the originally fierce and noisy scenes gradually became calm.
The eyes of hundreds of thousands of people present were all on Zhu Youtang, waiting for Zhu Youtang's next order.
Zhu Youtang looked calm and was not surprised by this result.
He just twitched the reins slightly and ordered calmly: "Enter the city."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Hundreds of thousands of people took the order and followed Zhu Youtang into the city!
The emperor's honor guard took the lead to clear the way for Zhu Youtang.
Then came Zhu Youtang riding a BMW, and behind him were Wang Zhi, Mou Bin and Liu Jin.
When Zhu Youtang walked to the surrendered local troops on both sides of the city gate.
The local troops on both sides of the road knelt down in front of Zhu Youtang and shouted long live the mountains.
"Meet His Majesty the Ming Emperor!"
"Welcome to your Majesty to return to Beijing!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
The sound of kneeling in my ears was deafening.
But Zhu Youtang walked straight into the capital gate without squinting.
After a few months, I once again set foot on the long bluestone street in the capital.
Behind Zhu Youtang, hundreds of civil and military officials also entered the capital,
When they saw the scene in the capital city, which was still the same as before, they were filled with emotion, as if they were in another world.
In just over a month, they seemed to have experienced reincarnation.
Along the way, they had heard too many wailings and seen too many deaths.
Zhu Youtang walked all the way and killed all the way.
Wherever you go, you kill.
In the entire Jiubian, there was no pure land where Zhu Youtang could not move his butcher knife.
Too many deaths have made them feel numb, following Zhu Youtang like a walking zombie.
They didn't even know how they walked back to the capital.
It was only after returning to the capital and seeing familiar things that they felt that they still had feelings and were still alive.
In an instant, these officials burst into tears and cried out!
They were thankful that they could return to the capital safely and unscathed!
But there are still a few people who can be happy.
More officials still looked ashen and numb.
These officials were the criminal officials who were ordered by Zhu Youtang to be brought back to the capital in chains for execution.
Led by the two ministers Xu Pu and Liu Daxia, they were all officials who colluded with the border generals, colluded with each other, took bribes and violated the law.
When they arrived in the capital, not only were they not excited or happy, but they felt extremely frightened.
Returning to the capital means that their trial and execution are about to begin!
After the officials in the capital, there were three thousand battalion soldiers who were full of blood.
After that, there were the two thousand Oara people who came to pay tribute to Zhu Youtang.
Zhu Youtang's newly appointed attendant Mona was also among them.
Finally, the mighty and countless horse-drawn carriage troops entered the capital, carrying more than 37 million taels of silver.
As for the more than 300,000 logistics troops, they did not enter the city.
Instead, he was arranged to be stationed outside the capital, waiting to receive the reward.
Zhu Youtang has always made clear rewards and punishments, and the rebels must be eliminated without mercy.
These logistics troops who have been with him for more than a month and traveled all over the nine important towns must also be well rewarded.
"Your Majesty, we have captured the rebel commanders, Yu Shen and Cao Li!"
A royal guard knelt in front of Zhu Youtang's horse and informed him.
Zhu Youtang nodded: "Put them in custody and wait for me to liquidate them all."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
At this time, Zhu Youtang actually did not know what happened in the capital.
I just knew that Yu Shen and Cao Li had been standing on the city wall, ordering the troops below the city to prevent Zhu Youtang from returning to the capital.
Now that he has entered the capital, the next step is to return to the palace. Find out carefully what these bold officials did in the capital when he led his troops to inspect the nine sides!
Zhu Youtang raised his eyes and looked ahead, which was the direction of the palace.
"Go back to the palace!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The emperor's guard of honor continued on its journey, starting from the gate of the capital and heading towards the Chengtian Gate of the Forbidden City.
This long straight street from the capital city gate to Chengtianmen is called Chang'an Street.
At this time, soldiers from the enemy camp and the fifth army camp were stationed along Chang'an Street.
At the same time, a large number of factory guards are involved to ensure that this road is absolutely safe.
With the emperor's guard of honor in front, Zhu Youtang and his party continued to advance towards the palace.
At the same time, Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, who were hiding at home, also felt the changes in the current situation in the capital.
After they were demoted, they were no longer qualified to enter the palace and go to court, so they could only hide at home alone.

When they heard those few shouts of "Open the city gate quickly and welcome His Majesty to the capital" like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, they already realized that Zhu Youtang was going back to the capital!
There has never been a time when they were as eager as now for Zhu Youtang to quickly control the situation in the capital.
When Zhu Youtang was in power, they were still a cabinet bachelor.
After Yu Shen came to power, they were even demoted to minor officials by Yu Shen.
They hated Shen to the core, and they wished they could crush Yu Shen's bones into ashes.
And now in the entire Ming Dynasty, only Zhu Youtang has the strength to crush Yu Shen's ashes.
Now, apart from praying that Zhu Youtang could defeat Yu Shen's conspiracy and enter the city smoothly, they no longer had any hope of a comeback.
And Zhu Youtang did not disappoint them, and soon they heard the shouts of respectfully welcoming His Majesty to the capital.
After confirming that Zhu Youtang had successfully entered Beijing, Liu Jian and Li Dongyang could no longer contain their inner excitement.
They quickly put on their official uniforms, ran out of their homes and ran towards Zhu Youtang.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty is finally back! We are saved!"
"Your Majesty! Please make the decision for us!"
"Your Majesty! Yu Shen is a traitor and a traitor, your Majesty must not let him go!"
"..."
Liu Jian and Li Dongyang cried with joy, saying "Your Majesty" to each other. They looked closer than meeting their biological father.
But before Zhu Youtang entered the capital, he was wary of all officials in the capital.
So at this time, these two people had just appeared on Chang'an Street, and were immediately captured by the factory guards and escorted to Zhu Youtang in embarrassment.
After they saw Zhu Youtang, they couldn't stop crying and complained loudly.
"Your Majesty! Yu Shen is so courageous. He ignores common etiquette and laws. He is plotting rebellion, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty! Yu Shen forced the king to be the emperor, monopolized the power, and demoted us to the bottom. He has no king and no father, and he pretends to be a minister, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty! Please make the decision for us!"
"..."
Zhu Youtang frowned when he saw his two cabinet bachelors crying to him with runny noses and tears.
"Speak carefully. What happened in the capital during my absence?"
Zhu Youtang waved his hand, and the factory guards on both sides released their hands restraining the two.
The two men who were free immediately knelt in front of Zhu Youtang and kowtowed repeatedly.
At the same time, after Zhu Youtang personally marched and inspected the nine sides, he told everything that happened in the capital.
Of course, they also deliberately beautified their behavior when telling the story.
For example, they once tried to control the government by supporting the Zhou family and colluding with people inside and outside the harem.
But in their mouths, it turned out that southern officials launched a coup and attempted to move the capital to Nanjing.
And they had to invite the Zhou family to prevent the capital from being moved.
But Yu Shen and those southern officials were too powerful, and they ultimately failed, allowing Yu Shen to seize power in the capital.
They picked everything off themselves, and Yu Shen and the southern officials described it in a heinous manner.
Of course, from a factual point of view, they are right.
They indeed made a lot of efforts to prevent southern officials from moving the capital and Yu Shen from seizing power.
No matter what their true purpose was, they did help Zhu Youtang to a certain extent.
The more he listened, the gloomier Zhu Youtang's face became, and the anger in his heart became stronger.
Especially when Zhu Youtang heard that in order to seize power, Yu Shen spread rumors that he was captured by the Oara people.
And he, the Minister of War, without the emperor's order, dispatched troops to Beijing without authorization to seize power.
Later, Fu Dahai, the eunuch and eunuch in charge of the eunuch, Fu Dahai, who was the Chief of Ceremonies and was beaten to death in court, forced the Zhou family to make Zhu Youqi the emperor and to honor himself as the Supreme Emperor. They became even more furious.
Zhu Youtang actually didn't want to be angry, but it was hard not to be angry at the things these civil servants did as long as they were individuals.
Can these things be accomplished by those officials who are full of benevolence and morality, loyal and honest, loyal to the emperor and the people, and the emperor as his ministers? !
In the eyes of these officials, there is no loyalty to the emperor, no respect for the emperor, and no loyalty to the emperor!
Some, just the desire for power! Coveting for power! The pursuit of power!
"Presumptuous!"
Zhu Youtang roared angrily, and his whole body was filled with murderous aura.
"Go back to the palace immediately and arrest all the officials in the city and jail them!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The factory guards and troops present were immediately ordered to do so.
The faces of Wang Zhi, Liu Jin, Mou Bin, and Gao Shun were as dark as ink, and their chests were full of anger.
They immediately ordered to mobilize a large number of factory guards and troops, and together with Zhu Youtang, they quickly rushed to the palace!
