Chapter 141: When the country is in turmoil, thieves come out

Zhu Linmiao was a little stunned for a moment, without him to stop the Northern Expedition of the Zodiac Zhou, Longwu would not have gone to Shanghang, so at this time, he had already saved Longwu in Changting......

History has simply become a strange cycle.

Perhaps, the butterfly wings that have influenced the course of history, are the source of all changes.

But, none of this matters anymore.

With the death of Long Wu, the entire Ming Dynasty will be stormy again. In this era when the whole world is respected by imperial power, the death of the emperor will inevitably lead to violent turmoil in the current situation.

This is especially true now that the enemy is currently in the present. The Qing army was wreaking havoc in Fujian, and in history, the whole of Fujian collapsed immediately after the death of Longwu, and such a situation must not be allowed to happen again.

There was no time to be sad and angry about Longwu's death, Zhu Linmiao suddenly woke up, the most important thing at the moment is to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, avoid the strong inertia of history to wipe out all the previous efforts, and return to the old trajectory of Jianyu seizing the world.

He was thinking about how to proceed, when he heard Huang Daozhou shouting to the soldiers around him, "Gather all the people within twenty zhang of the vicinity here, and no one is allowed to leave this place for half a step without my permission!"

"In addition, General Jiang was seriously injured and unconscious, and his speech was slurred, if anyone dares to spread the words he heard, he will not be forgiven!"

"Yes!" The soldiers around responded in unison.

Zhu Linmiao nodded secretly, there were not many people who heard Jiang Zhengxi speak just now, and the news in this era was not smooth, as long as it was deliberately blocked, it would be difficult to spread the word out of Changting City within two or three months.

Another maid rushed to carry Queen Zeng into the palace, and she was busy for a long time before she woke up leisurely, glanced at everyone's expressions, and immediately understood that she was not a dream just now.

She pushed the maid away with all her might, struggled to get up, and knelt down in front of Zhu Linmiao, crying: "I beg King Chen to take His Majesty back!" ”

Zhu Linmiao was taken aback, and it was not easy to help her, so she hurriedly took a step to the side and knelt down, "Her Royal Highness the Queen, please get up." For now, the situation should be focused on you and the prince. I'll escort you to Jiangxi first, and then I'll go to ...... after you return."

Empress Zeng shook her head when she heard this, and said very firmly: "The soul of the saint is not at peace, and the body is not allowed to enter the ground, and the prince and I will not go anywhere!" ”

Zhu Linmiao was stunned, although he knew that the ancients were extremely reverent of the dead, but he didn't expect it to be so extreme.

He was about to persuade again, when he saw Huang Daozhou also kneeling down on the side, and said to Zhu Linmi: "The old minister knows that His Royal Highness is thinking about the society, but even if he is worried about the society, he should first retrieve the remains of the saint." ”

Zhu Linmiao immediately reacted, "Huang Ge always said that this way can the news be blocked?" ”

"That's one of them." Huang Daozhou nodded and said, "If Jiannu is humiliated by the bones of the saint and not recaptured, it will show me the weakness of the Ming Dynasty, and if the country is weak, the people will be suspicious, and the world will be chaotic. In the future, the captives will be held hostage to the court with the bones of the saints, even if I will be constrained everywhere, I will also ask for a sky-high price, and at that time, I can only accept it with patience for all loyalty and filial piety, and this is the third. ”

Only then did Zhu Linwei understand that there were so many links in a corpse, and Huang Daozhou was indeed more far-reaching than he thought.

He then nodded and said, "Then I will go and intercept the thief and take back His Majesty's remains!" ”

When Empress Zeng heard this, she stood up with the support of the maid and thanked Zhu Linmiao solemnly.

Zhu Linmiao didn't dare to delay any longer, leaving 200 hussars to Zheng Chenggong, bringing the little eunuch who came back with Jiang Zhengxi, and hurriedly led the rest of the men and horses out of the city.

"General, don't hesitate any longer."

Chang Yongnian frowned, and two fingers tapped the table hard. Ma Zhong is a confidant he relies on as a think tank, and he has always obeyed his words.

But this time, he just stared at the table and never spoke, as if the answer was hidden in the wood grain of the table.

Ma Zhong lowered his voice again and said eagerly: "When the emperor was still alive, the imperial court was applauded by the Zheng family. Now that the Zheng family has fallen to the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Emperor has collapsed. Although there is a prince, he is still in infancy. According to the subordinates, under the advantages of one and the other, within three months, Fujing will change hands. ”

Chang Yongnian hesitated: "Even if Fujing falls, Daming still has Jiangxi, Huguang, Liangguang and other places, then King Chen's combat power is very strong, in case the army is declining in the future, won't I have to deal with myself?" ”

"What the general said is not true. Xianfujing is where the Ming court is located, this place is lost, the situation is chaotic, the eastern army is sure to be like a bamboo, in one fell swoop to seize Jiangxi, Guangdong, the world is decided.

"Even if you take a step back and say that Daming really held Jiangxi, but the surname of Huguang is He, and the surname of Liangguang is Ding. Only a little emperor who is less than a year old, plus King Chen, who has just reached the weak crown, what can he do in a corner of Jiangxi? It's just a few years later. ”

"General, if you want, you will mix under Jiang Zhengxi for a few more years, at most one general." Ma Zhong looked in the direction of the palace, "And if the Ming prince is enshrined in the Qing court, even if he is not a marquis, at least one earl will not be able to escape." ”

"How can you be sure that the soldiers below are all on their minds?" Chang Yongnian asked again.

"There is no need to tell ordinary soldiers about this." Ma Zhong smiled proudly, "The general only needs to send his henchmen to contact the Qing army, make an appointment, open the city gate and let them in." At that time, the general trend has been achieved, and the general only needs to ascend to the heights and shout, who dares not to obey? ”

Chang Yongnian's eyes lit up when he heard this, "According to what you said, then it will fall?" ”

Ma Zhong saw that he was already moved, and hit the railway while it was hot: "Now is a God-given opportunity, if it weren't for the king of Chen leaving the city, relying on his command to fight, even if he wants to do something, it will be difficult to surpass the sky." Heaven doesn't take it, but suffers the blame, general. ”

Chang Yongnian finally nodded and slapped the table hard, "Okay!" Then I will receive this heavenly gift! He said to Ma Zhong again, "Go and call Li Xi, Guo Pengyi, and Lian Ming." Remember to be secretive! ”

"Yes!"

After an hour, several people came out of Chang Yongnian's house, changed into groom clothes, quietly opened the city gate, and scattered their horses in all directions.

Chang Yongnian and other henchmen left, and then returned to the palace, planning to replace the guards with their own people first. As soon as he passed the Yimen, he saw Zheng Chenggong and Huang Daozhou discussing under the eaves.

Zheng Chenggong turned his head and saw him coming, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "General Chang came just in time, and the last general has a plan, except for the trouble of thieves outside Changting City, and he is discussing with Huang Ge Lao." ”

Chang Yongnian frowned and walked over, "What is the plan of the general surnamed Guo?" ”

Zheng Chenggong said: "King Chen asserted before that the thieves will pretend to be the Ming army to deceive the city, if I only drive them away, the thieves will find an opportunity to come again, and the city will never be safe."

"If the last general thinks about it, he will first set up an ambush in the city, and then pretend not to know the thief, and let him in. Then close the city gates, ambush soldiers in all directions, and will be able to cut off the thieves in one fell swoop! What does the general think? ”
