Chapter 50: I'm Ready

Dozens of eunuchs were busy in the Caolanchang warehouse, and although it was dinner time, they had received orders to expand the site, mainly to add a VIP area.

In the open space outside the warehouse, the Zhongguan soldiers who had had dinner in advance (the eunuch death squad formed by Chang Yu, the Zhongguan is another name for the eunuch) were already doing warm-up exercises and preparing for the evening training, because most of the people were more or less injured, Chang Yu reduced the intensity to the norm.

In the courtyard of the prince's mansion, Tang Potian, Song Renfeng, Cheng Chongdao and other seven or eight guards stood in a half-circle, looking curiously with raised eyebrows.

In front of them, there were more than a dozen various gantry frames, wooden stakes and other equipment, and Chang Yu was testing them one by one, this was the fitness equipment that Chang Yu asked Fang San to find a craftsman.

"Come here, this is to train shoulder muscle strength, like me, a group of twenty, do four sets, each group with an interval of twenty breaths" Chang Yu called Chunxiang.

There is no doubt that Chunxiang is Chang Yu's closest and most trusted person in the palace, because he is the best friend of the little eunuch who was called Chang Yu before.

Of course, Chunxiang was definitely not the only one who was called by Chang Yu for special training, but also the other five people who were originally the warden, Jiang Quan, Hu Ling, Fan Jiaqian, Chen Jingzhong, Li Tiezhu, these people are Chang Yu's henchmen.

"Grandpa Chang, where did you learn it?" Seeing Chang Yu constantly instructing several henchmen and eunuchs to use these equipment to exercise, Tang Potian was really shocked and convinced, you must know that their traditional way of exercising strength is just a stone lock.

"What I learned in my dreams"

Chang Yu smiled slightly, in fact, these simple instruments are no different from the gyms of later generations, if there must be a difference, that is, the difference between metal and wood, for the skilled craftsmen of this era, it is really not difficult to make these simple equipment.

With such a fresh and comprehensive thing, Tang Potian and the others naturally would not let it go, and they took off their coats one after another to join the exercise, and Chang Yu also explained and instructed which equipment to exercise which part of the strength one by one.

The scene was once in full swing, and everyone took turns to replace it, and even gradually began to have the meaning of competition, and the shouts continued.

"Ming'er asked the craftsman to hurry up and make a few more sets, well, make fifty sets, right?" Chang Yu is very satisfied with these equipment, and is ready to purchase them in large quantities to train death squads, especially the gantry, plus a pulley with a rope tied to a stone lock, it can become a multi-functional and multi-directional strength training equipment.

"Okay"

Fang San responded beside him, but his expression was a little hesitant, as if he had something to say, Chang Yu glanced at him, and knew probably: "The silver is paid by the Prince's Mansion."

Fang Sanyan opened.

"Chang Yu"

Just when everyone was playing, a shout sounded, and when he turned his head to look, it was the prince standing at the gate of the side courtyard, panting, with an indescribable expression of excitement.

As soon as he saw his expression, Chang Yu knew that there was a play, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, he casually took the coat in Fang San's hand and put it on, quickly walked to Zhu Cihong, and then the two of them went straight to the main hall.

Leaving everyone confused, before they could salute, they ran away, looking at the intimacy, how did it look like Xiao Biesheng's newlywed......

In the palace, Zhu Cihong was still in excitement, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, and when he came out of the harem, he ran back to the prince's mansion in one go, and even let the entourage eunuchs can't keep up with it.

Chang Yu was not excited, although he already knew the answer from Zhu Cihong's expression, he was still looking forward to him saying it himself.

Although he was very anxious, he still waited for Zhu Cihong to finish the pot of water before he spoke: "It's done?" ”

Zhu Cihong finished taking a sip, burped, put down the kettle, and clenched his fist hard: "Father is approved!" ”

Ye! Chang Yu jumped up excitedly, waved his fist and hit a set of combinations in the air, yes yes, screaming.

"Wait a minute" Chang Yu suddenly remembered something, stopped his movements and looked at Zhu Cihong: "The emperor should have asked about the boxing match in detail, you didn't sell me, right?"

"Don't worry" Zhu Cihong seemed to have guessed that Chang Yu was going to ask this question, and then sat down and lay on the chair: "When the two boxes of silver were carried over, my father asked, and I told the matter of the boxing match from the beginning, but I never mentioned you, just said that my mother and I were worried about the military salary, and I thought about it in the palace before and after."

"Hehe, the emperor must have praised you fiercely" Chang Yu actually had a little snack vinegar in his heart, obviously it was his own credit.

"That's not it, my father was just silent for a while, and said: The queen has a heart" and then looked at the two boxes of silver and sighed.

"It's a drop in the bucket," Chang Yu smiled slightly.

Zhu Cihong squinted his eyes and smiled and nodded: "Father and Emperor meant that at the time, but ......" stood up as he spoke.

"When I told him about the money gambling with Uncle Xiangcheng and our plan, Chang Yu, you can never imagine my father's expression at that time, well, I can only say that his eyes lit up all of a sudden, just like the feeling of suddenly being sunny in the stormy weather full of dark clouds......"

Chang Yu smiled silently, looked at Zhu Cihong's exaggerated narration, and sighed in his heart, the happiest thing in life is the reversal of another village.

"Do you know, at that time, a few courtiers were out to see, and my father, who has always attached great importance to state affairs, actually asked them to wait first, but took my hand and sat down, and asked me to explain the plan in detail......" Zhu Cihong's eyes lit up, he should actually enjoy this feeling in his heart, the feeling of being affirmed and appreciated by his father.

Of course, Chang Yu can also feel Chongzhen's excitement, to say that he has a lot of headaches now, after all, there are too many natural and man-made disasters at this time, such as drought, plague, locust plague, internal and external troubles, but at present, how to deploy troops to resist the eastward advance of the thieves is the most headache, and the most headache is the most painful point is that there is no money!

The so-called penny is difficult to defeat a hero, even if he is the king of a country, he is no exception, he has no salary, he can't be transferred, he can't be transferred to the general, even if the IOU is transferred, he will go through the motions to deal with it, and he won't work hard for you at all.

And at this moment, this plan sent by Chang Yu is exactly what he has in mind, how not to be excited, not to mention that after Chongzhen listened to the prince's dream, he also knew that if he couldn't reverse the destiny of heaven and break into the city, those courtiers and relatives of the emperor who were originally indefatigable would also be swept clean by Li Zicheng and lose their lives.

In this case, why do you want to be a cheap thief, not to mention that you don't rob, force or kill, just make you willing to gamble and lose, I take it above board, not to mention that I don't need to come forward myself.

"Father approved this plan, and also made a few suggestions" Zhu Cihong took a lot of words to finish how he persuaded Chongzhen, as if Chongzhen was difficult to be comfortable, obviously inviting credit, he was a child after all.

"What advice?" Chang Yu was a little curious, and his face straightened.

"My father has decided to issue a decree tonight, and from tomorrow night, more than five counts will take turns to be on duty in the palace every day......"

As soon as Zhu Cihong's words came out, Chang Yu almost squirted out, Chongzhen is in such a hurry to accumulate money, it is almost equivalent to blatantly letting these nobles enter the palace to gamble, although those people did not know what they meant at first, but I believe that it will only take a few days for someone to understand the connotation of his holy decree.

"The father also said that it could be held during the day, so that those concubines in the harem and those courtiers in the court could also participate...... The decree can be held outside the palace to a wider audience......"

"Also, the result of the event must be within our control, so as not to shoot ourselves in the foot, and the initial start should not be too dark, we must catch big fish in a long line, and don't forget to give sweetness first......"

Eh, sure enough, Jiang is old and spicy, and people are old people, Chongzhen is now for the sake of silver, not only has to attack Xungui and draw inferences, but the courtiers are also in his plan, and even the juniors in the harem are not let go, and this product really calculates all the possibilities, and is determined to rely on this boxing match to make a profit.

After all, there are many nobles in Beijing, and one person pits tens of thousands, which is also a million, and the wealth is moving, even if he is an emperor, let alone an emperor who is short of money.

"Chang Yu, now my father has approved it, but how to act in this play still depends on you, are you sure in your heart, how to control the result of the boxing match, and will those nobles take the bait?" Zhu Cihong talked too much, his mouth was a little dry, there was no one in the hall to serve, and he had to make tea by himself, as if he had completely forgotten that there was a eunuch sitting opposite who was specially serving people.

Chang Yu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, without diamonds, I won't take this porcelain job, and they will definitely take the bait, this scene will definitely be successful, and it is very exciting."

"Why are you so sure they'll take the bait?" Zhu Cihong was stunned.

"Because gambling is one of the greatest evils of human beings, and it is innate!"

"Really?" Zhu Cihong looked puzzled and thoughtful.

"That's nature" Chang Yu looked at him and smiled: "Aren't we just gambling now."

Zhu Cihong was slightly stunned, and looked at Chang Yu's eyes slowly becoming solemn: "Chang Yu, in order to fight for your power before, I panicked to the queen, saying that you and I dream together, saying that you are the person who can help me Ming, at that time, it was just talking, but now I feel that you are really that person."

Chang Yu's expression became serious when he heard this, and he looked at Zhu Cihong: "Although I don't know if I'm that person, everything I'm sitting on now is indeed for the sake of Da Ming......." If there really is such a day in the future, I hope that I can continue to help you to be a good emperor, and I want the Ming Dragon Banner not to fall! ”

Zhu Cihong's eyes were red, he stared at Chang Yu for a while, and then nodded vigorously.

The two were silent.

There was a louder sound outside, and Chang Yu got up: "It's time to sing, you are the protagonist tonight."

Zhu Cihong smiled.
