"Your Majesty, I have already asked clearly!"
Chen Qixing walked over with a slightly worried look and said, "Liu Fangliang's thousand soldiers and horses are coming for you!"
"There are also a dozen or so skilled assassins among them. I heard they are from Jiangnan. Unfortunately, they all escaped during the previous battle."
"Are you from Jiangnan?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chen Qixing with some surprise and said, "Liu Fangliang has always been in the north, how could there be an assassin from the south of the Yangtze River?"
Chen Qixing said: "I heard that Dang Shousu brought it from the south. Those people don't know the specific situation."
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this.
Chen Qixing saw this and whispered: "Your Majesty, should we also find some people from the world and teach them a lesson?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, and then said in deep thought: "This matter is okay, but it is best to be from the south, and the person you find must have some weight, otherwise it may cause trouble." xь.
Because of his status as a Jinyiwei, Chen Qixing had contacts with some people in the world, but most of them were from the north, and the real masters also maintained their own identities and were unwilling to interact with the government.
So when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's request, he couldn't help but frowned.
Zhu Yuanzhang also traveled through the world in his early years and knew that true masters generally did not want to have contact with the imperial court.
Seeing Chen Qixing frowning at this moment, he was about to say a few words of relief so as not to affect his morale. Unexpectedly, Gu Yanwu on the side suddenly said: "Your Majesty, what do you think of Chen Wangting and Wang Zhengnan?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was slightly stunned. Before he could speak, he heard Chen Qixing's surprised voice: "Master Gu, are you talking about Chen Wangting from Chenjiagou and Wang Zhengnan, the invincible opponent in Jiangnan?"
Gu Yanwu nodded and said, "It's those two!"
When Chen Qixing saw Gu Yanwu nodding, he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, if these two come forward, the people in Jiangnan will not dare to act rashly!"
Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know the situation of Chen and Wang, seeing the excitement on Chen Qixing's face, he knew that the origins of these two people were not simple.
However, he immediately remembered that he had previously investigated Gu Yanwu's background. Although he knew that he had traveled around, he did not know that he had met such an influential figure in the world.
He suppressed the surprise in his heart and said with a smile, "Gu Qing, are you very familiar with them?"
Gu Yanwu shook his head and said: "It's not that I'm very familiar with him, just because I accidentally saved Chen Wangting's life when he was in despair in his early years."
"He once said that if I am in need, he will come to my aid no matter how dangerous it is, and I think he is also a loyal person. Not to mention that this matter is beneficial to the people. If I write a letter, I don't think he will refuse!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "What about Wang Zhengnan? What is your relationship with him?"
Gu Yanwu said with a smile: "This guy likes martial arts and is crazy about martial arts. In the past few years, in order to prove a set of mental methods, he competed with me several times, and we can't get to know each other until we fight."
"But if we want to ask him to take action, I'm afraid we have to ask Mr. Huang (Huang Zongxi) to come forward. This will be more reliable, because the two of them often study internal martial arts together..."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he remembered that when he was defending the city in Linyi, Huang Zongxi showed great skill in the internal boxing.
He was a little strange before, but now he realized it was because of Wang Zhengnan.
Zhu Yuanzhang waited for Gu Yanwu to finish speaking, nodded and said: "Okay, you will be responsible for this matter. If the court needs to come forward, you can speak up!"
"Of course, if they don't need the court to come forward, we will also record their contribution and give them some rewards when the time is right!"
Gu Yanwu was hesitant before, but now seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang not only did not look down on people in the world, but also showed enough respect, he immediately bowed and agreed.
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, then looked at Chen Qixing and said, "Send a message back to the capital and ask Brother Li Wu to ask Zhang Hongren about the situation in Jiangnan Wulin."
"In addition, tell Jiang Dejing that we intend to promote Catholicism in Jiangnan. If he knows anyone well, he can inform him in advance so that they can prepare in advance." Xiu Shuzhu
Chen Qixing was stunned when he heard this.
Because in the past few months, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked his guards to remove all things related to Catholicism in the palace, which was obviously an attempt to eliminate Catholicism.
Now he has issued an order to allow Catholics to preach in the south of the Yangtze River, leaving him unaware of what medicine the other party is selling in his gourd.
On the contrary, Gu Yanwu heard the meaning of the words and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat dissatisfied with the performance of the Zhengyi Church, so he used the Catholic Church to put pressure on Zhang Hongren.
He then thought of Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions just now, his heart sank, and his posture became more respectful.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Gu Yanwu, and seeing that Chen Qixing didn't reply, he said with some dissatisfaction: "Did you remember everything?"
Hearing this, Chen Qixing came back to his senses, nodded repeatedly and said: "General, I have written it down. General, go and do it now!".Ь.
"Wait!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stopped Chen Qixing again and said, "Also, ask Huang Nilu to bring over some volleys of fire cannons and equip them with the best gunmen. We are going to kill the arrogance of those gangsters!"
After Chen Qixing bowed in agreement, he arranged for someone to deliver the message.
Not long after Zhu Yuanzhang and his entourage arrived at the camp outside the city, a secret message was suddenly sent from Jinyiwei, saying that Shen Zhanran and Jiang Yingkui were fighting fiercely with Li Guo. Zuo Liangyu suddenly came from behind and defeated Li Guo.
After Li Guo was defeated, he brought more than 2,000 remaining soldiers towards Hebei.
Shen Zhanran originally wanted Jiang Yingkui to lead all the cavalry in pursuit, but because he was worried about Zuo Liangyu's evil intentions, Jiang Yingkui came with only two thousand cavalry.
Zhu Yuanzhang was also quite confused when he heard that Zuo Liangyu was taking action at this moment.
At this time, Gu Yanwu said: "Your Majesty, is the war in Shaanxi beneficial to us, so Zuo Liangyu took the initiative to show his kindness?"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Li Ruolian and Du Yinxi went deep alone. They are lucky to be able to escape unscathed. It is impossible to defeat Li Thief unless..."
Before he could finish his words, another guard in Jinyi hurriedly came in and reported, "Your Majesty, a secret report came from the capital, saying that traces of Zuo Xianmei were found in Xinzhou."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "You order Brother Li Wu to pay close attention to Zuo Xianmei's movements."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Gu Yanwu and said, "Gu Qing, we were planning to let you rest for a day or two before going out to fight, but now that Li Guo has been defeated, I believe Liu Fangliang will get the news soon, and then he will not dare to attack the city. .”
"So we want you to set off immediately and intercept the rebels together with Huang Degong. This will also give Huang Wushan some time to capture the rebels."
After Gu Yanwu bowed in agreement, he hurried to organize the army.
Zhu Yuanzhang then ordered Zhang Qixing to send scouts everywhere to discover traces of Li Guo's defeated army as soon as possible.
After Zhu Yuanzhang arranged all this, he checked the march map for a while and frowned when he saw Zuo Liangyu's troops spread across Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places.
