What? Is Shang Kexi sending troops?
Zhu Hesheng, who was discussing with Qiu Hui and Chen Yonghua in the lobby of Qiu Hui's courtyard on how to attack Jieyang County, encircle Wei, save Zhao, and relieve the siege of the Guiyu capital, heard the news that his home was raided, and immediately couldn't sit still, and quickly stood up and took off. Just go to the yard.
Chen Yonghua and Qiu Hui were also a little nervous. They looked at each other and then got up and followed them out of the yard.
When they arrived outside the yard, the three of them discovered that Da Bo Ling was not the only one outside. Scar Rong Qiu Rong, Factory Gong Eunuch Pang, Second Master Yu Yu Zhongyi, Brave Su Su Yong, Sven Bai Xiao Wen, Master Guo Guo Youde, and the one who had been with Zhu and Qiu Shuzhen, who was engaged to be engaged, are both here!
And all of them have complicated expressions, and you can tell at a glance that something big has happened!
"What's going on?" When Zhu Hesheng saw so many people coming together, he knew that this change was a bit big!
"Cannon Zhu!" It was Qiu Rong who spoke this time, "Something big has happened! Salt merchants and private traders from Puning County and Jieyang County have brought news, saying that Shang Kexi is happy that the old thief has sent his son Shang Zhixin to supervise five thousand troops to suppress the attack. Dananshan...has broken your Tianwang Village!"
How can this be?
Zhu Hesheng couldn't believe it. Shang Kexi was confused? Sending 5,000 troops into Danan Mountain to attack the Tianwang Stronghold... What is there about this Tianwang Stronghold that is worthy of him mobilizing so many troops to attack? This Tianwang Village is located in the south of Danan Mountain, close to Qiu Hui's territory, far away from the Qing Dynasty's control area.
Moreover, the terrain around Tianwang Village is very complex, with many mountain paths. Tianwang Zhu has not yet prepared for the rainy day, and has already built several small villages for refuge around Tianwang Village. As long as those who stayed behind at Tianwang Village didn't sleep to death and were attacked by surprise, they could slip away before the Shang family's army launched an attack.
Besides, all the money that Tian Wang Zhu and Cannon Zhu made over the years are stored in Eunuch Pang's "Silver Coin Factory". There are only some rations in Tian Wang Village, which are not worth much. Shang Kexi has no need to mobilize troops to rob!
Send five thousand troops! How much does this cost?
When Zhu Hesheng was confused, Guo Youde, the master of Tianjin, had already spoken: "The news from Puning and Jieyang said that Shang Kexi was happy that although the old thief failed to arrest a few heroes from Nanshan, he still took away the nun's family's jade certificate. , the golden seal, the python robe and the imperial edict handed down by the master of the Miao Temple have all been copied... The king of heaven, Zhu, is the third grandson of Zhu. It's a leak! "
What?
Zhu Hesheng was completely confused. How did this happen? Why is it different from what is written in Zhuge’s military advisor’s tips?
What's going on? Zhu Hesheng quickly looked at Eunuch Pang and Da Bo Ling, as if asking: "What's going on with you? Have you changed the script?"
Eunuch Pang and Da Bo Ling also looked confused... They had just secured their waist card and had just made a draft of Emperor Chongzhen's imperial edict. They still didn't know how to get the gold seal? Mangpao didn't even think of it.
As a result, news came that Shang Zhixin's soldiers had obtained waist badges, imperial edicts, gold seals, python robes and jade ultimatums!
Obviously, the waist badge, imperial edict, gold seal, python robe and jade certificate that Shang Zhixin received were not fakes prepared by them...
Eunuch Pang thought about it carefully and said: "Cannon Zhu, the waist badge, imperial edict, gold seal, python robe and jade certificate that the thief Shang Zhixin snatched are not fake..."
What? Not fake?
Is that true?
Qiu Hui and Chen Jinnan were all shocked when they heard what Eunuch Pang said!
Eunuch Pang is the real governor of the East Factory!
Moreover, his status was not low when he was in Beijing. His godfather was Pang Tianshou, how could he be worse?
If the Third Prince Zhu really slipped out of Beijing back then, it was very likely that he was secretly taken out of Beijing by Pang Tianshou. Because Pang Tianshou went south on an errand shortly before the fall of Beijing... His errand was most likely a cover, and his real mission was to cover the escape of Prince Zhu San.
Could it be that Zhu Jushan’s true identity is Zhu Cijiong, the third prince of Zhu?
Although both Qiu Hui and Chen Jinnan knew that Zhu Jushan was the eldest son of the Tang king, it seems that apart from the official positions granted by Emperor Longwu and Emperor Shaowu, there was no evidence to prove Zhu Jushan's identity... Maybe Emperor Longwu and the King of Tang Zhu Yue deliberately wanted to conceal the true identity of the third prince Zhu.
In addition, why did Zhu Jushan sneak out with a group of people before Wencun fell? Why didn’t Tang Wang Zhu Yue himself and his heirs run away? What qualifications does Zhu Jushan have to take the first step? Is he particularly important?
Qiu Hui and Chen Jinnan both looked at Zhu Hesheng, as if they wanted to get a definite answer from him.
But Zhu Hesheng fell into deep thought... He had to think carefully about whether he was Zhu's third grandson!
The memories left to him by the original Zhu Qipao were shattered into pieces. He had to think carefully about many things before he could remember them... He didn't even think of the elegant "half-fiancée" Qiu Shuzhen before, so he forgot It doesn’t seem strange that my real grandfather is Emperor Chongzhen!
After thinking carefully for a while, Zhu Hesheng finally remembered who his grandfather was in this life?
"No, it's not..." Zhu Hesheng shook his head slowly and said, "My grandpa is not Emperor Chongzhen. My grandpa is the eldest son of the Tang Dynasty. He is a person of Lin's generation. Lin... Linzeng was granted the title of Lieutenant of Fengguo."
In fact, his "truth" was not something he spilled, but something he had already told in Zhuge's military advisor's ingenious plan. You can't just say that you are Zhu San's grandson when asked... You have to let Eunuch Pang speak, and let Qiu Hui and Qiu Rong discover the "truth" on their own!
After Chen Yonghua, Qiu Hui, and Qiu Rong listened to Zhu Hesheng's hesitant words about who his grandfather was, they all showed doubts on their faces - they didn't believe you!
You have to think about who your grandfather is for a long time, you are simply lying!
The boss Hui Qiu Hui was not happy at that time, and his arrogant face sank, "Uncle, we are all our own people, why don't you tell me the truth? You are the grandson of Zhu San, my boss Hui I won’t sell you out either!”
Qiu Rong also nodded repeatedly: "That's right... My Dahao Qiu family is loyal to the Ming Dynasty!"
Who are these people? Zhu Hesheng said heartily: "No one believes the truth anymore... It's not that I deliberately lied to you, it's that you yourself don't believe the truth and believe the lies!"
Zhu Hesheng glanced at Chen Yonghua again, as if he wanted to hear what Military Advisor Chen had to say - Chen Yonghua was the prototype of Chen Jinnan. The military advisor of the Yanping Palace should have a huge intelligence network in his hands. He must know a lot of truth. If he can deceive If you live with him, then your own grandson Zhu San will be included.
But Zhu Hesheng saw Chen Yonghua frowning and seemed to be thinking hard!
It turns out that Chen Yonghua thought about the time when Lu Supervisor Zhu Yihai wanted to adopt Zhu Qipao as his heir...Zhu Yihai's sons were all lost in the troubled times, so he wanted to adopt him from the Zhu family clan. A son.
I don't know why I fell in love with Zhu Jushan's son Zhu Qipao, and wanted Zhu Qipao to inherit the title of King Lu and the status of supervising the country. I also wanted Zhu Qipao to inherit King Lu Town-this King Lu Town was a military designation. One of the 13 towns brought by Guoxingye on the Eastern Expedition was composed of the old troops of King Zhu Yihai of Lu.
Zheng Jing also approved more than half of this matter... He did not approve Zhu Qipao to be the governor, but he agreed that Zhu Qipao should be the prince of Lu, and also promised to let Zhu Qipao inherit the town of King Lu when he came of age.
But I didn't expect that Lu Supervisor Zhu Yihai died of illness in Kinmen before he could adopt Zhu Qipao, and after his death, his young wife gave birth to a posthumous son, so the matter naturally went south.
Chen Yonghua and Zheng Jing did not think about it carefully at the time. There were so many Ming Dynasty clans in Taiwan, why did Zhu Yihai choose Zhu Qipao as his successor? And he also wants Zhu Qipao to be the supervisor!
There must be some inside story here!
Now Chen Yonghua finally understands that Zhu Jushan is the third prince Zhu, and Zhu Qipao is the grandson of Zhu third. This is the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty!
Chen Yonghua, who had been thinking about it for a long time, also noticed Zhu Hesheng's gaze, but he did not reveal the "truth". Because King Zheng Jing of Yanping may not necessarily want an orthodox grandson of Zhu San from the Ming Dynasty...
Chen Yonghua said: "General Qiu, Governor Qiu... don't press Lieutenant Feng Guo. When there are things that should be known to you, I will naturally let you know!"
ah!
Qiu Hui and Qiu Rong suddenly realized that King Yanping and Military Advisor Chen had long known that Zhu Jushan was the third prince Zhu!
It’s just that this matter needs to be kept secret! This is necessary and everyone can understand it!
Zhu Hesheng was stunned and said to himself: "What do you mean, Chen Jinnan? Can you speak? No! Do you know any secrets that the original Zhu Qipao doesn't know? No, I have to ask my father. King Zhu!"
Okay! This high imitation made Zhu Hesheng doubt himself...
At this moment, Chen Yonghua spoke again, and the counselor of the Yanping Palace looked a little solemn: "Lieutenant Fengguo, since the Pingnan Palace has sent five thousand troops, we must mobilize more troops and prepare more mines. That’s enough, I’m afraid we can’t send out troops right away.”
Qiu Hui also frowned and said: "Uncle, to tell you the truth, although my Qiu family's army is said to be more than ten thousand, there are only three thousand standing troops among them. If we want more troops, we must send orders to the capitals below. The order for troops has been ordered...after all the men and horses have been ordered, some drills are required before the troops can be sent out."
"How long will it take?" Zhu Hesheng looked a little anxious - he hadn't yet found out whether his grandfather was Emperor Chongzhen!
Qiu Hui thought for a while and said: "At least 8,000 troops will be sent out this time! In other words, 5,000 people must be gathered from all villages... If we need to drill again, I am afraid it will have to be delayed until mid-October. Troops are dispatched.”
"It takes that long?"
"Uncle, don't be anxious," Qiu Hui saw Zhu Hesheng's worried look and added, "I can send a thousand troops to surround Chaoyang County, and then ask Arong to send a thousand troops to march across Lianjiang and march into Tunxia Mountain City. In this way, Shang Zhixin, Deng Guangming will definitely divide his troops to support Chaoyang County and station troops to practice defenses on the north bank of the river, so there will be no extra troops to attack Guiyu."
"Then it will be my father-in-law's fault," Zhu Hesheng still felt uneasy, "My father-in-law, why don't you ask your son-in-law to make a few more Tianlei chamber pots for you, and then build a few more stone machines... In this way, Scar will be proud of you." The army can scare the Qing army outside the capital of Guiyu, so that they dare not act rashly. My father-in-law, the thousand men led by you can also rely on the power of thunder to destroy the Qing army stronghold outside Chaoyang City and destroy the Qing army inside the city. The Qing army is surrounding us!"
"Okay!" Qiu Hui said with a smile, "Just listen to my uncle!"
