Chapter 113: The Times Have Changed
Shen Bancheng trembled the fat on his face, pointed at Wu Zheng and said, "You are stupid to be Shen, at this time, if you come out like this, even if I want to save it, I can't save it." If I don't come up with this money, will the Shen family still have the face to stay in Shaoxing? ”
Wu Zhengzhi understood, looked at Shen Bancheng and said with a smile: "Uncle Shen, look at what you said, these are two different things, if these eight hundred taels are considered gift money, it is heavy!" Why don't you take it back? ”
Shen Bancheng turned back to Father Wu and said, "Look at it, look at it, I gave me silver, and he still has to ignore people." ”
Father Wu understood, glared at Wu Zheng, and then said to Shen Bancheng: "Brother Shen, the dog is invisible, the eight hundred taels of gift money is indeed heavy, otherwise, take one hundred taels, and bring the rest back later, right?" ”
Shen Bancheng paused and said, "I can't take it back." The unfilial thing in my family, I only recognize him and don't recognize my father, if I take it back, I don't know how to toss him Lao Tzu. ”
Wu Zheng snorted and laughed, and was greeted by Father Wu's angry eyes.
Father Wu took Shen Bancheng's hand and said, "Brother Shen, the descendants will have grandchildren, I grew up watching Ling Lang, he is a good boy." Now that the money has been delivered, let it be kept. I have received a share of Brother Shen's heart. ”
When Shen Bancheng heard Father Wu say this, he calmed down, and said to Wu Zheng: "Don't forget your original promise, if you don't wipe out the bandits, you will have to spit out a lot of money." ”
Wu Zheng smiled and said: "Uncle Shen, don't worry, I have already arranged this matter, and after today, you can wait for the good news." ”
……。
Zhu Yihai did not come, but Zhang Guowei and others brought blessings.
This is not surprising, the identity gap, and Wu Zheng is not a wife after all, and His Royal Highness the Prison State can understand his identity.
Zhu Yujiao also asked Uncle Zheng to personally send a gift.
Although it was a little awkward, Wu Zheng still accepted it.
Back in the cave room, Wu Zheng opened it and saw that the box was very familiar.
After thinking about it, I remembered that day when I was unable to get the pension money because of the battle on Shining Street, Zhu Yujiao asked Uncle Zheng to bring this box, saying that there was a southern pearl in it, which was worth three or five thousand taels.
Wu Zheng opened it, and a pearl the size of a child's fist inside shimmered under the candlelight, and there seemed to be a flowing halo floating on the bead.
Even if he doesn't know the goods, Wu Zheng knows that this bead is worth a lot of money.
But Wu Zheng's heart was a little throbbing.
Zhu Yujiao's life is not easy.
As a princess, it is very humiliating to take out the same thing twice and give it to the same person.
In other words, there is nothing around Zhu Yujiao that can be handled.
At this time, Zhou Simin, who had already been removed from his head by Wu Zheng, saw this bead and showed a look of surprise on his face.
"This pearl was given by the first emperor when Her Royal Highness the princess was ten years old."
"You recognize?"
"Yes. When the princess left Beijing, she had nothing else on her body, only this bead. The expenses on the way south were all taken from the Zhou family. ”
Wu Zheng said secretly, sure enough.
Carefully put the pearl back in the box and handed it to Zhou Simin, "Good life take it, find a chance to return it." ”
Zhou Simin was stunned and said angrily: "The princess gave it to you, and if you return it, won't you live up to the princess?" ”
Wu Zheng sighed and explained the guess in his heart to Zhou Simin.
"The princess needs this bead by her side. Do as I say. ”
Zhou Simin understood, but she didn't answer, "I have hidden my life experience now, I'm afraid it will not be easy to see the princess." If you want to pay it back, you should pay it back yourself. ”
Wu Zheng was right to think about it, so he put the beads down.
Looking at Zhou Simin's face, Wu Zheng smiled evilly: "Are you really ready?" ”
Zhou Simin was stunned at first, then his face turned red, and he quickly turned around and ran away.
Wu Zheng chased after him, and it didn't take long for the beauty to be in his arms.
Zhou Simin gently pressed his face against Wu Zheng's chest, and said softly: "Actually...... From the first time I saw you, I ...... I'm in love with you. ”
Wu Zheng was a little surprised, picked up Zhou Simin's face with his fingers, and asked jokingly: "Then you are still against me everywhere?" ”
Zhou Simin broke free of Wu Zheng's fingers, buried his face deep in Wu Zheng's arms, and said, "How do you understand the heart of your daughter's family?" ”
……。
Hangzhou Mansion.
There was some panic at this point.
Of course, the panic was not all due to the fact that the entire elite army of the 3,000 Jianyu who went south was wiped out.
At least not the main reason.
The main reason is that the Qing army in Hangzhou needs to temporarily transfer Huguang, and the original plan to attack Shaoxing early may be aborted.
The Qing army is currently overstretched.
The huge territory of the Ming Dynasty needs to be devoured, and it is indeed difficult to swallow hundreds of thousands of Qing troops.
Even in areas that have been occupied and ruled, there are still people who are in rebellion from time to time.
The Ming army surrendered a lot, but the Qing court couldn't fully believe it, so it had to send troops to monitor it.
And that's not the most important thing.
Importantly, the Qing army was in a constant state of urgency on the Huguang battlefield in central China.
He Tengjiao, the governor of Huguang appointed by the Longwu regime of Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty in the Southern Ming Dynasty, recruited Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Hao Shaoqi, Liu Tichun and others from the remnants of the original Li Zicheng Dashun Army to enter the Huguang battlefield.
The attack on Jingzhou and Wuchang, which were important military towns occupied by the Qing army, caused the Qing army on the Huguang battlefield to face a complete collapse.
After learning of the military situation, Dolgon, who was the general of Shunzhi and the prince of Rui at the time, urgently transferred Hangzhou Dorobelle and Pingnan general Le Kedehun to the west to rescue the Huguang battlefield.
So Dorobelle Lekde Hun personally led the elite of Manmeng, together with the general of Zhenguo, Aixin Jueluo Gong Adai, from Jiangning to the aid of Wuchang.
At the same time, Dolgon transferred the prince of Yu Duoduo, led 3,000 elite Tartars and 60,000 Ming troops to be stationed in Jiangning, temporarily shelved the plan to attack Shaoxing, and prepared to stabilize the Huguang battlefield, and then map Shaoxing, Zhoushan, Ningbo and other places.
But here's the problem.
Luckedhun originally planned to attack Shaoxing early, and in the past few months, the Qing court has also been slowly increasing troops to Hangzhou.
The 3,000 Tatar cavalry sent to raid the hinterland of Shaoxing before were the real Manchurian elite under the command of Luckdhun.
There were not many Manchurian elites under the command of Luckdhun, only 15,000 people, but there were 100,000 people in the Ming army of Hangzhou Prefecture.
did not send the Ming army to surrender, but sent the Manchurian elite, mainly because they were worried that the Ming people would rebel as soon as they entered the hinterland of Shaoxing.
Luck Dehun could not watch one thing disappear from the other, and the strength of the Shaoxing Ming army grew, which made it more difficult to attack Shaoxing in the coming year.
In addition, he always thought in his heart that his elite was enough to be ten.
Now, there is a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the entire army of the three thousand Tartar elites is gone, so Luckedhun was ordered to be transferred to Huguang, and there will be no way to leave more Tartar elites in Hangzhou.
As a result, Luckedhun had to take more Ming troops to surrender.
Because he was afraid that he would leave, the Ming army surrendered and immediately went anyway.
Lekdehun left only 3,000 elite Tartars and 30,000 Ming troops to surrender.
