Chapter 21 Layout
On May 23, the eighteenth year of Shunzhi, the younger brother of the Burmese king python killed his brother and stood on his own, Wu Sangui asked Burma to sacrifice the Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang, and kill all the ministers of the king, otherwise the Burmese disaster is imminent.
On July 19, in the name of "eating cursed water", the Burmese king python invited Emperor Yongli and his entourage ministers, Mu Tianbo, Ma Jixiang and other 42 people to be killed. Then the Burmese soldiers surrounded the residence of Emperor Yongli, killing one out of every thirty people. This catastrophe is known in history as the Cursed Water Change.
On the second day of December in the eighteenth year of Shunzhi, the Burmese side sent Emperor Yongli and his entourage to the military camp of Wu Sangui, and on April 25 of the first year of Kangxi, Emperor Yongli was strangled to death by Wu Sangui with a bowstring in Jinchan Temple in Wuhua Shanxi.
Thinking of those changes, Yuan Zonghao's eyes were red: "If one day we can return to the country, we will definitely kill those unrighteous villains in Myanmar!" ”
Cheng Xiaolian snorted: "We can take Myanmar as the starting point of our own development, on the border, the Myanmar side must not have the courage to provoke Wu Sangui's tiger beard, and Wu Sangui will never care about this kind of petty behavior, which is a small goal in the early stage of our development." Uncle Yuan, do you dare to take a trip? ”
Cheng Xiaolian, who has watched film and television dramas in later generations, clearly remembers that there is a Nantianmen on the opposite side of the Nu River, but it is a good place for the Japanese to build a base, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Why don't you dare, if it weren't for taking care of you, Lao Tzu would have gone desperately with a knife to find someone, but now that you are so promising, I will rest assured, the place will be handed over to me, I will definitely get a piece of power for you in the shortest possible time, we still have some silver, and if there is silver, someone will work."
Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "Don't be too anxious about this matter, don't look for too many people at the beginning, if you mix in people from other forces, we will be doomed, as long as we have the ability to barely protect ourselves, we can't afford to raise too many people." ”
Yuan Zonghao laughed embarrassedly twice, in the past, there was a lot of silver in the imperial court, and there were more treasures, but when he fled in all directions, there was not much family business left, not to mention raising an army, he couldn't afford the horses of a cavalry alone, but fortunately, there were forests in Burma, and there was no need to fight on horseback.
Confucius snorted coldly: "Don't worry, I still have some silver, fill it in when the time comes, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation." ”
Cheng Xiaolian glanced at Yuan Zonghao and Confucius: "Without further ado, this matter needs to be done quickly, now Wu Sangui's forces should all pay attention to the north, it is a good time, don't say much, the two uncles take care of their health, even if things don't work out, as long as you stay alive, I'm still young, you are not old, everything still has a chance." ”
Cheng Xiaolian said goodbye to Yuan Zonghao and Confucius, and returned to the mansion, from now on, he has to put away the mentality of eating and waiting for death, and now in this world, he either climbs up, or is stepped on, and if he wants to mix, sooner or later he will have to be put on the neck with a knife.
Confucius glanced at Yuan Zonghao: "Hey, I said, Yuan Mangfu, don't you want to keep his blood and blood waiting to have a child, why do you dare to do this brainless business so impulsively?" ”
Yuan Zonghao glanced at Confucius: "Lao Tzu is a rough man, and if he is willing to work hard, he will sell his life, but why are you, a sour literati, as impulsive as Lao Tzu?" Have you read all the books of the sages in the belly of a dog? ”
Confucius sneered: "I was originally for the prince's kindness, but now for this child's second uncle, can you manage it, let me tell you, if you go, you have to listen to me." ”
"I'm bah, you sour talent, except for reading and doing a fart, when it comes to picking up a knife and cutting people, I'm your master."
Confucius sneered: "You coarse literati can only use knives to cut people, that can be a!" ”
"It's better than you sour literati talking about misleading the country!"
"If the two of us break up, it won't be me who will cry in the end! Anyway, his name is Yuan Xiaosan, and he is not called Kong Xiaosan! ”
Yuan Zonghao slapped it on the table: "Are you looking for trouble?" ”
"I'll just put my words here, if you follow your ideas, it will definitely not be a big deal!"
"Hey, then let's break up in two, one person and one mountain, and see who can win over more people in the end."
"I'm afraid of you, so I won't have the surname Kong!"
The two of them broke up with a huff, but they both knew in their hearts that they wanted to do something for Daming, and the two of them worked separately, if one of them died, the other person could also leave something for Cheng Xiaolian. As for Confucius, although he is a scholar, he has long learned the behavior of the scoundrels in the market, otherwise he would not have survived in this troubled world.
Early the next morning, Yuan Zonghao pushed open the door, hugged the burden, and shouted at Confucius's house: "Lao Tzu is gone, you must not die in front of Lao Tzu!" ”
"Don't worry, I've told my fortune, and I'll definitely live longer than you reckless!"
The news that Yuan Xiaosan's family moved away spread throughout the street, and many people rejoiced, and Song Shusheng on the other side of the street even bought a few firecrackers.
Besides, Cheng Xiaolian returned to the mansion, and Zhu Fu hurriedly greeted him: "The young master's people came again and asked you how things were going, and the private seal of the party was not lost, right?" If you lose it, it will be a big deal. ”
Cheng Xiaolian scratched his head: "Uncle Fu, am I such an unreliable person?" I won't lose my personal seal when I run an errand, but I haven't figured out any good way to do it yet. ”
Zhu Fu looked bitter: "This is over, if you let the young master know, you will not only steal his private seal, but also lie to him, he will have to kill you." ”
"Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu, I said don't get excited, isn't there still two days, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, let's eat first, what will we eat tonight?"
Zhu Fu patted his head: "I really don't know if it's good to say that you can calm down, or if you have no heart and lungs, Zhang Peng and Wang Wu are also heartless, they stay in the yard all day, and they can't think of any way." ”
Cheng Xiaolian smiled: "Uncle Fu, it's a blessing to be able to eat, don't care about this, hurry up and eat, I'm not in a hurry, when the time comes, it's not your head to cut off my head." ”
"Hey, I can't afford to be in such a hurry with you little babies, I'll find a way to go by myself!"
Cheng Xiaolian grabbed him: "Don't, Uncle Fu, it's okay for a few of us to go back, it's not good if you get on fire again, don't worry, I already have a clever plan in my heart, but I can't tell you for the time being." ”
"Really?"
"Hey, Uncle Fu, do you think I'm so smart, like someone who can't do anything?"
"Stinky boy, I know you have a way! Let's go, let's eat! ”
Cheng Xiaolian laughed, and said in his heart that there is no way to leave two days, and Zhu Shaoxiong said that it is three days, and it doesn't matter if it drags on for five days or six days, anyway, if he can't get out, he won't be able to kill me, the situation in the entire Kunming City is so tense, Zhu Guozhi will definitely not let him out, and he is not at ease.
