On April 11, the third year of the Ming Dynasty when King Ding supervised the country, he was outside Zhangjiang Gate in Nanchang.
Starting early this morning, the city gates and gates of the adjacent Ganjiang Pier were once again controlled by the brigade of "Red Turban Killer Confucians". It's heavily guarded inside and out.
Just after midnight, a group of carriages and horses drove out from the city of Nanchang - the carriages were all four-wheeled open carriages, and in each carriage were several "curly barbarians" wearing wigs. . Their eyes widened and they looked around at the heavily guarded dock outside Zhangjiang Gate.
Today is the day they leave Nanchang. They have not stayed in this city for a long time, and they are not happy at all.
The supervisor of the Ming Empire was not only arrogant, but also a bit stingy. The hospitality he gave them was incomparable to that of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. The most exaggerated thing is that Guanyi provided unclean food and drinking water. Many members of the mission suffered from terrible dysentery a few days ago. The most seriously ill among them was Leibniz, the envoy of King Louis of France!
This unlucky Chinese culture enthusiast was already dying this morning and could not leave Nanchang by boat, so he had to ask the deputy envoy to take the two treaty texts and the gift from the Ming Dynasty Supervisor to French King Louis back to France. And he himself, with the help of Father Philip, finished his last mass in advance, and now he is in that inn, waiting alone for death to come...
The pier outside Zhangjiangmen has been expanding in the past few months, and now the long pier is filled with large and small wooden boats. There are also many shirtless workers and soldiers, under the command of Ming army officers, who will use a two-wheeled cart to transport large and small bags of supplies onto these wooden ships.
At several dock berths a little further away, several human-powered cranes were hoisting bronze cannons polished to a golden shine onto wooden ships!
Obviously, the Ming army in Nanchang is about to go out to attack the territory ruled by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty!
When the carriage the members of the envoy were riding stopped at the dock outside Zhangjiang Gate, the Western envoys on the carriage felt a sense of schadenfreude in their hearts - the Qing Emperor's army was so powerful, and it was still on the Yangtze River. A Western-style fortress was built on a narrow river bank. The arrogant supervisor of the Ming Dynasty would definitely be beaten to death in front of the Qing Emperor's army and fortress!
"The supervisor is here!"
Suddenly someone shouted. Ji Dabao, who left with the Western delegation, quickly shouted in Latin: "His Royal Highness is here! Get out of the car and greet him!"
Zhu Heji did not originally say that he would come to the pier to see off the delegation, but he did not expect to show up now.
Although the members of the mission did not like the Ming Dynasty Supervisor very much, they still had to get off the carriage and stood neatly on the pier, waiting for His Highness the Supervisor to appear.
They didn't wait too long when they heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, and then saw Zhu Da Jianguo, in red and yellow scarf, riding his horse along the bank of the Gan River, escorted by a group of knights dressed similar to him.
Obviously, the eunuch must have been inspecting somewhere at the dock outside Zhangjiangmen. He learned that the mission was about to board the ship and leave, so he came over to say a few words on an impromptu basis.
"See His Royal Highness the Supervisor!"
A group of foreigners bowed carelessly, while Ji Dabao greeted them in Chinese.
Zhu Heji looked at this group of Westerners who were not respectful, and did not dismount. Instead, he asked on horseback: "Why don't you see Leibniz?"
Charlie Gough, who can speak Chinese, replied: "Envoy Leibniz is dying. He had performed his last mass in the morning and is probably back in the arms of God now!"
"Oh, that's such a pity, he's still so young." Zhu Heji said with a regretful expression.
But he knew very well in his heart that God would have to wait for many years before he could see Leibniz.
Because Zhu Heji sent his disciple Yan Yuan to rescue Leibniz early in the morning with allicin. He has probably been rescued by now. He should be drinking rice porridge while considering whether to accept Zhu Heji's offer to serve as an engineer with the army?
After all...the Western mission has returned home, and it is impossible for Bleinitz to bear the travel expenses back to Europe alone. And the Chinese miracle medicine used to treat him was also very expensive! So he might as well work in China to make money first, and when Louis XIV sends people to China again, he can just go back with him.
However, Zhu Heji would not tell the Western envoys who were preparing to leave now that Brainitz would not die...
He came here specially from the dock where cannons and rocket launchers were shipped. He wanted to ask them to bring a message to Emperor Kangxi.
"When you go back this time, you should be able to meet the Qing Demon Emperor Kang Mazi again!" Zhu Heji said, "So I ask you to send a message to Kang Mazi that the Gu family will personally lead an army of 100,000 to attack him... ...He’s just going to lose his head again!”
"His Royal Highness Jianguo, you said... one more time?" Charlie Gough was startled by Zhu Heji's words.
"Yes!" Zhu Heji nodded, "Just one more time! I killed him once in Sanjiangkou Town last time...but he didn't die completely, he came back to life again! But next time This time, I will not only chop off his head again, but also cut him into pieces!"
"Torn into pieces means..." Charlie Gough's Chinese is still not perfect!
"Just cut it into pieces!" Zhu Heji said with eyes wide open, "Then feed it to the dog and see how he treats it!"
Charlie Goff felt his heart go crazy when he heard this, and said to himself: "There seems to be no cure for beheading the head! Can it still grow back together if it is sewn on? Is Emperor Kang Mazi still a human being?"
Just when Charlie Goff was thinking wildly, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded again, and Zhu Heji had already galloped away. However, he did not return to the dock where the artillery was being shipped. Instead, he ran along the Nanchang City Wall to the northeast corner of Nanchang City, outside the very remote Yonghe Gate.
A reception pavilion outside Yonghe Gate was currently surrounded by a group of Ming army soldiers in red clothes and red scarves. When they saw Zhu Heji coming, the soldiers surrounding the pavilion opened a passage and let him run in.
When they arrived in front of the pavilion, Zhu Heji got off his horse and walked in quickly.
In the pavilion, there was also a farewell going on at this time.
A group of monks were preparing to leave from the Yonghe Gate. They were all wearing monk's robes, and their bald heads had scars on them. They all looked just like the real ones.
The leading monk was sitting cross-legged in the pavilion and saying goodbye to King Zhu Tian and Princess Kunxing!
Seeing Zhu Heji coming, the great monk hurriedly made a Buddha salute and said with a smile: "Amitabha, the poor monk has raised the dragon to be polite."
It turns out that Zhu Heji came to see Yang Qilong off!
Yang Qilong, who was dressed as a monk, stood in front of King Zhu Tian and Princess Kunxing.
"Commander Yang, you really look like a monk!"
Zhu Heji looked at Yang Qilong, who looked like a monk, and nodded repeatedly: "With this look, he should be able to get away with it, right?"
Yang Qilong smiled and said: "Don't worry, the supervisor, the poor monk still has some connections!" As he spoke, he took out a token engraved with four languages: Mongolian, Tibetan, Manchu and Chinese, and handed it to Zhu Heji with both hands, "This is The token given to me by Burni, Prince of Chahar... The officials at Qingyao don’t dare not give face to the Chahar Palace.”
"Burni..." Zhu Heji remembered that he was the Mongolian prince who was defeated by Tu Hai and a bunch of minions in the TV series. He didn't expect that this guy was also related to Yang Qilong.
This Yang Qilong is really capable of tossing things around!
Thinking of this, Zhu Heji asked: "Can this Burni join us in fighting against the Qing Dynasty?"
"Of course!" Yang Qilong laughed, "This Burni is King Chahar, a direct descendant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. His grandfather is Lin Dan Khan. His father Abu Nai was lured to Beijing by Kangxi a few years ago. Imprisoned to this day... He is a hatred of the country and his family. What reason does he have for not rebelling? When the third prince stationed troops in Tianjin and King Chahar Khan rebelled against him, Wu Sangui could still sit on the Diaoyutai? If Wu Sangui sent his army northward, Nanjing would Isn’t it something that belongs to the prison state?”
