Xiamen, Fujian

The scorching sun is constantly swaying the scorching energy, there is no way to go out to do things in such weather, there are few pedestrians on the bustling streets on weekdays, people either hide at home to escape the heat or run to the teahouse to drink tea and chat, even the local dog who cares for the home is hiding under the eaves and keeps sticking out his tongue, the whole look listless.

In such weather, several soldiers guarding the city gate were also listlessly leaning against the shade of the city gate and napping with spears, and everything around them was quiet, as if everything was hidden.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded faintly and became louder and louder, which soon alarmed several of the defenders who were sleepy at the city gate.

"Damn, there are still people who dare to rush like this in this ghost weather, and he is not afraid of sunburn." One of the soldiers scolded in confusion.

Seeing that these figures showed no signs of slowing down, several soldiers couldn't help but feel secretly angry in their hearts, and they all stepped forward a few steps to stop them.

And at this moment, a voice sounded from the horse's back, "The capital is eight hundred miles faster, and those who dare to stop it will be killed!" ”

Hearing this, several soldiers who were about to step forward to stop them rushed to the side one by one as if they had been electrocuted. What are you kidding, this is an eight-hundred-mile rush, not to mention these little soldiers, even if they are relatives of the emperor or even the governor of a province, if they are really killed by a collision, they will die in vain.

…………

Yang Feng, as the governor of Zhengnan, is responsible for the border defense of the entire Fujian and the prevention of harassment by Zheng Zhilong, who is hiding in Taiwan, and the official duties he has to deal with every day are naturally indispensable, but our Yang Daguan is lazy by nature and throws most of the things to Lu Guangbiao, Xia Dayan, Geng Bingyi and others.

Some people may say, isn't Yang Feng afraid of being overshadowed by the people below when he does this? Yang Feng is not worried about this at all, and the experience of countless predecessors tells him that whether it is managing a company or managing the army, as long as he firmly grasps the finances and personnel appointments and transfers, the people below will not be able to make any waves even if they want to make trouble.

Today, Yang Daguan, who had just returned from modern time and space, originally wanted to take Zheng Tuoniang and the two daughters of the line girl to a mountain villa on the outskirts of the city to escape the summer, but before they could leave, there was a family to report, Liu Xiang asked to see, and the helpless Yang Feng had to come to the front hall.

"My lord, that's the way it is, originally the lower officials remembered the old feelings of the past to protect him as the chief official of the thousand and entrusted him with important tasks, but these days the lower officials found that he was constantly in contact with some old departments who had been friends with him in the past, and not only that, but they also took the armor and firecrackers in the name of damage, and those damaged firecrackers and armor that should have been handed over did not know what happened, and the last general thought that there must be an unknown reason for this.

Moreover, in the past few days, the officers led by Liu Yizhou have been acting more and more arrogantly, and although the Mi Yuan Zhenfu Officer caught some officers and punished them, ostensibly suppressing their arrogance, the lower officers believed that many officers had already shown more and more strong dissatisfaction, and once it broke out, the Second Fleet was in danger of mutiny. Uncle handed over the Second Fleet to the Admiral, but the Admiral failed to manage it well, so he asked the Admiral to punish him. After Liu Xiang finished speaking, he knelt down and quietly waited for Yang Feng's fate.

Yang Feng didn't speak, just sat on the chair and looked at Liu Xiang quietly, her face was quite dusty when she came from Fuzhou overnight, and her originally wheat-colored pretty face had a trace of imperceptible tiredness.

The front hall was quiet, and just when Liu Xiang felt a little panicked in her heart, Yang Feng stood up and walked up to Liu Xiang and helped her up.

"General Liu, please get up!" Yang Feng looked at Liu Xiang kindly, "The Second Fleet was originally adapted from a group of pirates, and they have long been accustomed to being unrestrained, and they have suddenly become officers who are comfortable with a lot of military regulations, which will naturally make many people feel uncomfortable. Ben Bo originally said that if someone didn't want to be a soldier and eat food, Ben Bo would not be reluctant, and he would let them go home to fend for themselves, but if they were determined to wear this armor, they would be bound by the laws and regulations of the country, otherwise how could they live up to the high hopes of the emperor and the expectations of the people? There are things you can't do in this matter, and the responsibility is not entirely on you, so you don't have to be too burdened. ”

Seeing that Yang Feng not only did not blame himself, but also excused himself, Liu Xiang only felt moved and ashamed in his heart, his eyes turned a little red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Uncle, it was the last general who lived up to your expectations, please rest assured, when the last general goes back, he will definitely punish them severely." ”

"It's useless to punish alone," Yang Feng shook his head.

"It's useless to punish him?" Liu Xiang was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”

"It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married." Yang Feng said lightly: "You have to understand one thing, the human heart in this world is the most complex and the most difficult to guess. As you said earlier, they now dare to take the fire guns and armor in the name of reporting the damage, and they know that they will not hoard these things and sell them to Zheng Zhilong or secretly form another person to start a new business, this is absolutely intolerable. In that case, we don't have to show mercy! ”

Looking at the faint expression on Yang Feng's face and the hint of cold taste revealed in his words, Liu Xiang's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Uncle, they are all old people who have followed the habit for many years, can you give them a way to live for the sake of the lower officials?" ”

"Alive?" Yang Feng sneered, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he looked at Liu Xiang: "General Liu, you want to give them a way to live, but have you ever wondered if they are willing to give you a way to live?" Do you know how much responsibility you'll have as commander of the Second Fleet if this breaks out? According to the military regulations of the Ming Dynasty, if a subordinate rebels, the chief officer will bear the main responsibility, and you, a guerrilla general, will not only be dismissed from his post on the spot and pushed to the end, but will also be held accountable, have you thought about what will happen at that time? ”

"I ......" Liu Xiang was speechless for a while, if there was a rebellion in the Second Fleet, Liu Xiang, as the person in charge of the Second Fleet, would definitely not be able to escape. If the matter is a little more serious, Liu Yizhou colluded with Zheng Zhilong to occupy the newly recovered Fuzhou, and it is not too much to sentence her to be beheaded on the spot, thinking of this, Liu Xiang felt a chill in her back.

"Since Liu Yizhou and these people have become a cancer, they must be cut off." Yang Feng said firmly: "You rest here for one night first, and tomorrow Uncle Nibo will lead three thousand soldiers and horses to rush to Fuzhou with you, and completely remove this tumor in one fell swoop!" ”

"Report ......"

As soon as Yang Feng's words were finished, Song Ye's voice came from outside.

Soon Song Ye hurriedly walked in, came to Yang Feng and gave a military salute and said urgently: "Uncle Qiqi, there are eight hundred miles in the capital to expedite!" ”

"What...... Eight hundred miles expedited? ”

Hearing this, not only Yang Feng, but even Liu Xiang was taken aback by the words of eight hundred miles of urgency.

In this era of underdeveloped information, the official documents of the imperial court were transmitted by a post station, generally every 20 miles there was a post station, once the official document that needed to be transmitted was marked with the words "immediately fly", it must be transmitted at a speed of 300 miles per day according to the regulations. In the event of an emergency, the speed of teleportation is divided into three levels: 400 miles, 600 miles, and 800 miles.

Eight hundred miles of urgency means that the most urgent thing has happened, which is basically the result of running a dead horse, and often after the message is delivered to the destination, the messenger himself will die of overwork if his physical fitness is poor. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary (the most of them are border emergencies and large-scale mass rebellions), they will not use 800 li to expedite the delivery of letters.

"Bring him here!"

As soon as Yang Feng's words fell, Song Ye and a family member helped a man in soap-colored clothes covered in dust, and after entering the hall, the man struggled to lift the backpack behind his back and said weakly: "Qi ...... Uncle Qiyu, Beijing ...... Eight ...... in Beijing Eight hundred miles ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the man fell unconscious.

Just before the rucksack in the man's hand landed, Yang Feng ran over and picked up the rucksack, and after untying the rucksack, a brocade box was revealed, and Yang Feng opened the brocade box, which was a lacquered letter and a gold medal.

After tearing open the letter three times and dividing it by two, Yang Feng's face immediately turned blue, and he shouted almost without thinking: "Someone...... Immediately prepare horses and go to the military camp outside the city to beat drums and gather generals! ”

"The villain has to be ordered!" Song Ye answered and went out without looking back.

Yang Feng turned his head and glanced at Liu Xiang, "You go with you, Ben Bo will explain the matter of the Second Fleet to you later." ”

"Yes, the last general obeys!" Liu Xiang was also in his heart, and after agreeing, he also went out......

It has been eleven days since Zhu Youxiao fell into the water, although he was rescued, but the situation was very bad, not only cough but also accompanied by fever and coma, and the imperial doctor tried his best to make the fever go down.

As an emperor, I don't know how many pairs of eyes pay attention to him every day, the news that Zhu Youxiao fell into a coma naturally can't be hidden from the officials in the capital, and soon rumors began to spread in the capital, such as why His Majesty is unconscious today, and even the news that it is likely to be a big trip has also spread, and for a while, there are rumors in the entire capital, and the people are also panicking.

At this tense time, an official named Zhao Zhen openly declared that His Majesty is no longer able to handle state affairs, but the state affairs cannot be handled by anyone, so we should pick someone to replace Your Majesty in supervising the country, and wait until Your Majesty's dragon body recovers before returning the government to Your Majesty.

Zhao Zhen's words immediately caused a sensation as soon as they came out, everyone knows that His Majesty has been in a coma for many days, and the possibility of never waking up again is very high, and now the person who replaces Zhu Youxiao will probably become the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty after a while, so it is very important to let who serve as the supervisor of the country.

In fact, everyone knows the meaning of Zhao Zhen's words, although Zhu Youxiao's Laozi Mingguangzong has only been the emperor for a month, his ability to give birth to sons is quite good, and he has given birth to seven sons.

It's just a pity that only two of the seven sons have survived until now, one is Zhu Youxiao, the Emperor of the Apocalypse. The other is the current king of letters, Zhu Youzhen, who is only 17 years old this year.

Well...... In another time and space, he also has another name, called Chongzhen.

As soon as Zhao Zhen wanted Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, to temporarily replace his elder brother Zhu Youxiao, the superintendent of the country, it immediately caused a great discussion in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, some in favor and some against, but in general, there were more people in favor than against, and the person who opposed it the most fiercely was undoubtedly our nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian understands that these people are dancing so happily at the moment is to prepare for the promotion of King Xin Zhu You to the throne of God, once King Xin Yi has mastered the power, after the death of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, this prison country will naturally be justifiably upgraded to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and as those who have the power of the dragon, the benefits they will get in the future will naturally be great.

Well, as a person who pursues advantages and avoids disadvantages, it is natural to have such thoughts, but from Wei Zhongxian's point of view, such a thing could not be worse, he knows very well that once Zhu Youxiao is not there, he will end up miserable without asylum, and those civil officials will definitely pounce on him and tear him to pieces. In addition, he had never had any friendship with King Shin in the past, so it was undoubtedly foolish to expect King Shin to trust himself like his brother.

It's just that he knows what he knows, but Wei Zhongxian has no way at all, because what those civil officials said makes him unable to refute, and the emperor is unconscious, don't you want us to find someone to replace him in charge? So the only way now is to get Zhu Youxiao better as soon as possible, as long as Zhu Youxiao can come to his senses, all the troubles will disappear now.

In a hurry, Gonggong Wei immediately sent someone to announce the world to find a famous doctor for the emperor, and at this time, Huo Weihua, the new secretary of the Ministry of War, stood up, and he immediately offered a prescription, swearing that according to this prescription, he would definitely cure His Majesty's illness.

Let's take a look at what the prescription is.

Drug name: Fairy Fang Linglu

The recipe is as follows: a little high-quality millet, add to the wooden tube and cook. The bottom of the wooden cylinder is empty, and then put a silver bottle, add water while boiling, the boiled rice juice flows into the silver bottle, boil for a certain time, change the new rice and cook again, until the silver bottle is full.

After boiling, the liquid in the silver bottle is Linglu, which is said to have the effect of longevity and healing.

What do you think...... Do you have any familiar feelings when you see this recipe?

In fact, this prescription also has a popular name in the folk - rice soup.

used rice soup to rescue an unconscious and dying person, which fully reflected that Father-in-law Wei at this time had reached the point of being in a hurry to go to the doctor, but the person concerned didn't know it.

As the emperor's wife, Zhang Yan should have refuted this stupid behavior, but as the saying goes, the authorities are confused. At this time, Zhang Yan may have acquiesced to Wei Zhongxian's behavior with the attitude of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so our Comrade Zhu Youxiao had to drink this boasted miraculous - magic medicine.
