In the early morning, compared to other streets and alleys, the Imperial City is relatively quiet and clean. At least there are no traces of defecation in the past. After all, several departments in the capital have recently joined forces to deal with environmental protection and have achieved certain results. Although the influx of refugees a few days ago has made the city smoky, However, most of the refugees gathered in the outer cities, and the inner cities were spared.
Chang Yu walked slowly, with Chunxiang leading a group of Dongchang fans just following behind him. Across the street on his left were the common people's neighborhoods, and on his right was the imperial city. A wall separated two generations!
Emperor Chongzhen urgently summoned his cabinet bosses and confidants into the palace late at night to discuss how to use Azig, a double-edged sword, to negotiate with Dorgon. The bosses first agreed on a framework and then had to argue with the courtiers in the morning. This process is extremely annoying to Chang Yu. There are many factions in the court, each with its own interests, approval or opposition, which has nothing to do with the essence of the matter. They will use events to contain who, suppress who and get the benefits they want. As for The event itself...is irrelevant!
Chang Yu was disgusted with it and it was impossible for him to appear in the court, so he asked to leave the capital and return to the front line. Emperor Chongzhen comforted him to rest for a long time before returning.
Chang Yu didn't have time to go back to the Yamen to sleep, but he couldn't go to Duanben Palace to tell the prince a story immediately because he had to avoid suspicion!
If a powerful eunuch like him gets too close to the prince, the emperor will be suspicious of him. Let alone Chongzhen who is suspicious, this kind of thing is taboo for any emperor.
In front of Fusi Yamen in Jinyiwei North Town, Qianbu Corridor, just south of the imperial city, the Jinyiwei captain on duty rubbed his sleepy eyes and glanced at the people in front of him, lazily saying, "Who are you looking for?"
"Looking for your Lord Wu." Chang Yu smiled faintly, and the captain raised his eyebrows, "There are too many adults named Wu in our Fusi Yamen in Beizhen..."
Before he finished speaking, Chunxiang kicked him away. "What kind of mouth can a blind bitch have?" Only then did the captains wake up and take a closer look. I'm fucking people from Dongchang. Damn it, that's not Dongchang. Did the boss of the factory punish Qianhu Chunxiang? Damn it, that person in front of me...
"Eunuch Huichun, Commander Wu is not in the yamen. Last night..." The captain guarding the gate didn't recognize Chang Yu, so he had to try his best to please Chunxiang and welcome a few people into the yamen. It wasn't time to go to work yet, so the yamen There was no one there except the night shift guard.
By the way, there are two yamen in Ming Dynasty that are open 24 hours a day, Dongchang and Jinyiwei!
"Your commander will be back soon." Chang Yu approached Wu Mengming's duty room and fell on the bed. He waved to the others and fell asleep in a blink of an eye. He was too tired after fighting all day and staying up all night yesterday. !
Almost at the same time, several horses came galloping from outside Guangqu Gate in the southeast. The guards at the city gate started to control traffic. Soon thousands of soldiers and horses in the distance came from far and near, and then entered the city.
The outer city is more lively. After all, there are still many refugees who have not left. I suddenly came to watch when there was a commotion, but I saw that the officers and soldiers were not all in the same group. A knowledgeable person could tell at a glance that the Jin Yiwei, the Beijing camp, and the group of heavy armored cavalry, eh That should be from Dongchang, right? And who is sitting in the carriage in the middle of the team?
It can't be that big eunuch from Dongchang! The people watching were talking incessantly, guessing that the eunuch had returned to Beijing. What about the war outside?
The soldiers and horses entered the city and went straight to the front gate. Then they were like the inner city. There were traffic controls all the way. They arrived near the imperial city in less than half an hour.
"Brother, wake up, wake up..." Chunxiang pushed the sleeping Chang Yu hard.
The little eunuch turned over and asked, "Is that idiot Wu Mengming back?"
"Ahem, Eunuch Chang, I'm back from my humble duty!" Wu Mengming sighed heavily. Chang Yu stood up and looked at Wu Mengming who looked tired, "I haven't seen you for several days, Master Wu is still so heroic. He really wants to harm our family." Got it!"
Wu Mengming rolled his eyes and said, "I am worried about you, Eunuch Chang." He took a step closer and said, "Beizhi has been busy with official duties recently and has been working day and night to the point where he was physically and mentally exhausted and almost fell ill. In the middle of the night yesterday, the emperor suddenly sent an errand to ask Beizhi to leave the palace to pick up someone and send him to Jinyiwei Prison. ...Eunuch Chang, you really care about your humble position!"
Chang Yu laughed and patted Wu Mengming on the shoulder, "Brothers, you're welcome. It's a good saying that wealth should not flow to outsiders. This is a good thing and our family will naturally miss Mr. Wu."
In fact, it was Chongzhen's intention to transfer the Jin Yiwei and Beijing camp troops to support the Black Wolf camp, and it had nothing to do with Chang Yu, but there was no need to explain this matter clearly.
"Fat water?" Wu Mengming, who was exhausted physically and mentally after a night of tossing, his eyes lit up when he heard this. "That fat water is..." He received an oral order from Emperor Chongzhen in the middle of the night last night, asking him to lead a thousand soldiers and horses out of the city overnight to assist him. The Black Wolf Camp didn't know anything about the inside story. It has to be said that Emperor Chongzhen kept this big fish secret to the extreme.
It is said that Wu Mengming left the city overnight, and Qingqi Kuaixinguo met Lao Jiu, who was escorting Azig back to the capital, thirty miles southeast of the capital. In the dark, the two men almost started fighting.
Wu Mengming said that he came to meet him according to the imperial decree, but Lao Jiu was stubborn. I was secretly escorted. How did the emperor know that he still had people come to meet him overnight? If he hadn't known Wu Mengming, he might not have actually started doing it if it had been someone else.
Jin Yiwei drove an empty carriage, stuffed the rice dumpling Azig directly into it and rode back. Wu Mengming asked Lao Jiu who that person was?
Lao Jiu said you were here to pick someone up, didn’t you know? Wu Mengming shook his head and said, "Oh, you go back and ask the emperor." Wu Mengming was so angry that if someone else had cut him off, he couldn't afford to offend the people in Dongchang. At this time, Chang Yu heard that So, this old cunning man immediately reacted to the Tatar prisoner, Big Fish!
"Who is this factory boss?" Wu Mengming trembled a little when he asked this. If Xiaoyu wouldn't have been so aggressive and rushed several departments to secretly escort him overnight, and the little eunuch suddenly came back, then...could it be...
"Yes, you guessed it right, it's the person you thought of!" Chang Yu snapped the case and said, "Go and meet that guy!"
ah! ah! ah! But Wu Mengming couldn't lift his legs. He was trembling all over, dumbfounded, and kept mumbling, "Mr. Factory... you are so awesome, seriously... Oh my god, you, you actually captured Dorgon. What a great victory!" !!! But how can we catch such a big fish?"
Dorgon? Chang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you thinking about? This is his brother Azige!"
ah! Wu Mengming was staggered and said, "Hey, I'm working with you to get a humble job. Oh, what a waste of fun... What, Azige! This is also a big fish!"
Not everyone can enter the imperial prison, and those who enter generally cannot get out. There are two major imperial prisons in the capital, known as the underworld of the king of hell. One is in Dongchang, and the other is in Jinyiwei.
Azig was taken directly to the imperial prison of Jinyiwei from the battlefield a hundred miles away from the Black Wolf Camp. "But why is such a fat fish not taken to Dongchang? Why does it insist on giving me an advantage, Jinyiwei?" Wu Mengming was very worried on the way to the imperial prison. Confuse.
Chang Yu was very frank and hot about this! He wants to lead troops to fight outside, and no one in Dongchang can control him!
Wu Mengming reluctantly accepted this reason, "The factory owner is not polite at all!"
"Whoever gives it to the other, please be polite!" Chang Yu has been fighting on the battlefield for the past few days and is very nervous. It is rare to encounter Wu Mengming who thinks well and makes jokes anytime and anywhere.
"Factory Master, there is still something unclear about his humble position. Although Azig is a fat fish, the court will definitely take over at this time. No matter how fat he is, he will never get any money in our hands!" Wu Mengming was still confused.
Chang Yu sneered, "The imperial court eats meat and we drink soup, and it's hard to say who will eat whose meat." Wu Mengming couldn't understand this. He was thinking about how to make money and couldn't think about anything else.
It's okay not to know, because it scared him, so Chang Yu casually said, "Just keep an eye on Haosheng, wait and see what happens behind the scenes, we two brothers are plotting in Haosheng. If such a fat fish can't even drink the soup, how can it be?" It’s no big deal that it can make people mad to death!”
"That's what the factory owner said, that's what he said." Wu Mengming rubbed his hands excitedly and followed Chang Yu towards the imperial prison.
There was a creaking sound, and the prison door opened. Chang Yu frowned and covered his nose, "Hey, the smell is really strong. I said Mr. Wu, the weather is hot and dry, and he needs to improve his hygiene to prevent another plague from happening."
Wu Mengming repeatedly said yes, but rolled his eyes in his heart. How many times do you come here a year? This is a prison, not a restaurant...
In the end, Chang Yu couldn't stand the smell of the prison. After walking a few steps, he immediately turned back and asked the prisoners to go to the lobby before leaving in a hurry. Wu Mengming sniffed hard, is it so exaggerated? It was quite refreshing... Uh...
