Something is very wrong with Chen Qiong, the lord of Qinghua City.
In other words, there is a problem with the Annan and Chen Dynasties.
Faced with Chen Qiong's hesitation, Zhu Yunxi silently looked at each other, and both of them had a calculation in their hearts.
Zhu Gaochi asked Zhu Yunxi the question on their minds: "Where is the Lord Chen Hao now?"
Chen Qiong was stunned for a moment, her expression became obviously unnatural, and there was even more shame and anger on her face.
"The king ran away! He ran to Thang Long City with Li Ji Yao!"
Chen Qiong's face was dark and angry and he roared, rarely showing murderous intent in front of Daming.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes twitched, then he suppressed the doubts in his heart and laughed: "I wonder if there is a cup of hot tea in Qinghua City for our Ming army to enjoy?"
This is to put the issue aside for the time being and return to the matter of the Ming army taking over Qinghua City.
Chen Qiong immediately nodded repeatedly. When the Ming army had just arrived in Changhua County, Qiongzhou Prefecture, Qinghua City had already begun to prepare for war.
Then...
Qinghua City has gone through a bloodbath, and now Qinghua City is full of desire, waiting for the enjoyment of the Ming army.
"Reporting to the General of the State, the military camp has been cleared in the city, allowing all the troops of the State to rest inside. The city lord's palace has also been cleaned up a long time ago. The General is tired from traveling and riding, and wine and food have been prepared in the palace for the General to wash away the dust and catch the wind."
The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was completely on the way.
This made Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but take a closer look at the lord of Qinghua City who was talking endlessly and expressing his surrender in front of the people of Ming Dynasty.
Afterwards, Army Sima Zhu Gaochi conveyed the order to set up camp.
Five thousand Beijing guards and five thousand Southern soldiers entered the city and garrisoned the city walls and important places in the city. But there were still ordinary Ming troops who were left to build military camps outside the city.
As for Qinghua City, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after witnessing Daming taking over the city master's seal, and began to contact the generals of the Ming army eagerly.
Chen Qiong, who originally wanted to talk to Zhu Yunxi, was taken away by the neck under Zhu Shangbing's excuse at Zhu Gaochi's signal.
Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi entered Qinghua City under the protection of a group of personal guards and royal guards.
"It seems that there are no common people left in the city." Zhu Gaochi muttered in a low voice as he glanced at the deserted streets in Qinghua City where only the gentry, dignitaries and their servants lived.
Zhu Yunxi forgot to glance at the people in the street not far away, and said softly: "It's been a few days since I left. Didn't Qinghua City stop the people from leaving?"
This is unreasonable. Under normal circumstances, when encountering an enemy in a city, although the civilians in the city will increase the burden on the defenders, the defenders will often drive away some of the civilians.
But it won't drive away all the people in the city. At least some strong auxiliary troops will be left to defend the city.
But now, Qinghua City has become a city without people.
Zhu Gaochi thought for a while and whispered: "My man named Jinyiwei disguised himself and went out of the city to investigate?"
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "If my guess is correct, we can ask the Jinyiwei people to focus on looking upstream of the Ma River and into the mountains."
Zhu Gaochi hummed, turned around, and went to the back to find people from Jin Yiwei to arrange things.
After a while, when Zhu Gaochi arrived in front of the lord's palace in Qinghua City, Zhu Gaochi hurried back slowly. ….
"People have been sent, except to the west. People have also been sent to the direction of Daluo City in the north and Shenglong City in the south." Zhu Gaochi reported in a low voice, then his eyes flashed, and he whispered into Zhu Yunxi's ear: " That Chen Qiong is here."
Zhu Yunxi looked back and saw that Chen Qiong, who had used some method to get rid of Zhu Shangbing's entanglement, was already running towards the city lord's palace with his robe in one hand and his other hand raised high, with a smile on his face.
"Purge out all the Annan people in the city lord's mansion and organize the tea room. I want to invite him to tea."
Zhu Yunxi told Zhu Gaochi, and when the other party led people into the city lord's mansion, he stood on the steps and raised his hand: "City lord, go slowly, I have asked people to come into the house to make tea, and invite the city lord to drink together." one
pot. "
Chen Qiong ran to the door of the mansion out of breath, opened her mouth to breathe and said, "The officers and soldiers under the general's rule are really strictly disciplined, and the appearance of the superior is really intimidating to the humble."
Zhu Yunxi smiled silently and was noncommittal.
He turned around and invited Chen Qiong into the city lord's mansion.
Chen Qiong kept his head lowered all the way to the teahouse, even though he could clearly see and hear that the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Jinyi Guards who had entered the city lord's palace first were kindly placing him in the city lord's palace, preparing to serve the generals of the Ming Dynasty. The maid was kicked out of the city lord's mansion, but he didn't say a word.
Zhu Yunxi observed and examined Chen Qiong, who was a little too submissive, but never took the initiative to speak.
When the two of them entered the tea room, they saw the plump Zhu Gaochi sitting cross-legged on the futon, with a pot of hot tea boiling in front of him.
Zhu Yunxi sat cross-legged on the main seat, resting his upper hands on his knees and looking at Chen Qiong in front of him with a faint gaze.
Chen Qiong swallowed the hot saliva in her mouth, lowered her head and silently looked at Zhu Gaochi, who seemed to have not left, but started to distribute tea to the three of them, and then gritted his teeth.
Under the gazes of Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi, this man knelt on the ground with a thud.
Before Zhu Yunxi could react.
Chen Qiong was heard wailing.
"In this humble position, I refer to the grandson of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. His highness the grandson is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
Zhu Gaochi, who had just poured himself a cup of tea and was about to taste it, couldn't help but stop holding the tea cup, glanced at Chen Qiong with doubt, and then looked back at Zhu Yunxi.
Zhu Yunxi smiled silently.
This guy is really interesting.
From calling himself humble when he first met and surrendered, to being humble when he entered the city, and then to his humble position now.
In less than half a day, did he already regard himself as a minister of the Ming Dynasty?
And he could actually see his identity.
"How did you recognize Gu's identity without thinking that he was the emperor's grandson of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Yunxi stretched out his hand and pointed to Zhu Gaochi beside him.
Zhu Gaochi, who was drinking tea, looked stunned, and then rolled his eyes at Zhu Yunxi.
Chen Qiong smiled flatteringly: "I heard from my humble position that the Emperor Sun of the Ming Dynasty is very heroic and the Crown Prince of Yan is very calm, so I just asserted His Highness's identity."
He even figured out Brother Chi's identity.
Zhu Yunxi was quite surprised. ….
However, Zhu Yunxi suppressed the smile on his face, and his expression gradually calmed down.
Then he said quietly: "It is really unexpected that a member of the Chen Dynasty royal family would take the initiative to surrender."
This time it was Chen Qiong's turn to feel her heart jump and she was surprised.
He knelt on the ground and raised his head carefully. After just glancing at Zhu Yunxi who was sitting above and watching him, he immediately lowered his head again.
"I don't dare to be humble. I am a man who has surrendered to the city. I dare not call myself the royal family of the Chen Dynasty in front of the true dragon descendants of the Great Ming Dynasty."
Chen Qiong was extremely humble, but she was very surprised in her heart. She didn't know how her identity from the Annan Chen Dynasty royal family was known to this young grandson of the Ming Emperor.
Zhu Yunxi closed his mouth, stretched out his hand, silently held the tea cup, and tasted it slowly.
Zhu Gaochi smiled coldly and took over the words: "I wonder what City Lord Chen wants?"
After asking, Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Yunxi who was drinking tea and shook his head helplessly.
Chen Qiong struggled and struggled several times, and finally banged her head heavily on the ground, making a banging sound.
"In this humble position, I would like to ask the superior army to send troops south to take back Chen Hao, the original leader of the Annan Kingdom, from the female cadre Li Jisao."
"Oh?" This time, the expression on Zhu Yunxi's face was colorful, but his eyes were calm and he said, "Does the city lord really hope that Ming Dynasty will return to Annan?"
Before the Ming Dynasty came to Annan, the leader of the Annan Chen Dynasty was Chen Hao, known as Chen Yizong.
This person
He served as an official in the Chen Dynasty and went all the way to Zuoxiangguo to be crowned king.
However, later Chen Yuzong died and failed to leave any heirs, so the Chen Dynasty supported Yang Rili as his successor. It's just that Yang Rili's ability is mediocre, he is arrogant, extravagant and elegant, he enjoys feasting and traveling, and he likes acrobatics. He even wanted to restore the surname Yang, but the royal family of the Chen Dynasty refuted it. Later, Dazai King Gongjing resisted but was defeated and killed. Chen Hao heard the news and fled.
On the way to escape, he attempted suicide several times. Fortunately, he was blocked by his subordinates, until the royal family of the Chen Dynasty, who was also fleeing at the time, met Chen Hao, and the royal family supported Chen Hao as the leader of the country.
After three requests from the clan and officials, Chen Hao reluctantly ascended the throne. When he returned home with his troops, he deposed Yang Rili as the Duke of Hunde.
However, Chen Hao was not a talented person after all. During his period as the leader of the Annan Kingdom, domestic rebellions continued, and he relied heavily on his foreign relative Li Jisu. Even his own son can be left in the hands of the other party to be nurtured.
In the original history, even without the intervention of the Ming Dynasty, in less than two years, the foreign relative Li Jisao would have begun to control the affairs of the Annan Dynasty after the death of Chen Hao, and finally usurped power step by step.
It was not until the Ming Dynasty experienced the Jingnan War that it used the pretext of restoring the orthodoxy of the Chen Dynasty to turn Annan into the Jiaozhi Road of the Ming Dynasty.
Even if the Chen Qiong in front of her is a member of the Annan Chen Dynasty royal family, facing Chen Hao, who is increasingly confused, unclear about people, and relying on his relatives and daughters to work as sycophants, it is probably difficult for him to ask the Ming Dynasty to send troops to rescue him.
Chen Qiong, who could surrender to the city, could not be a foolish and loyal person.
When faced with this question, Chen Qiong also hesitated and found it difficult to answer.
Zhu Yunxi took a sip of tea and snorted lightly. ….
Zhu Gaochi immediately spoke and asked Chen Qiong: "City Lord, since you said that the leader of the Chen Dynasty and the royal family have fled to the south, who is in charge of military and political affairs in Langshan Pass and Daluo City now?"
Finally no longer having to worry about how to answer the difficult question, Chen Qiong immediately raised his head and looked at Zhu Gaochi: "It's Situ Chen Yuandan. After the country's leader was kidnapped by the female cadre Ji Li, he led the officials and troops in Daluo City. , command the war at Lang Son Pass and build a defense line between Lang Son Pass and Da Luo City."
There was no surprise on Zhu Gaochi's face, and he obviously knew the answer, so he said, "Is he the one who said, 'People say they send their children to the old crow, but they don't know whether the old crow loves him or not?'"
Chen Qiong nodded: "It's Situ Chen Yuandan."
Zhu Gaochi nodded and asked: "Since the Lord of Annan has been..."
"Where have all the people in Qinghua City gone?" Zhu Yunxi interrupted Zhu Gaochi's question and looked directly at Chen Qiong, who was still kneeling in front of him.
As long as it wasn't a fatal problem, Chen Qiong would do anything and would never give up.
"When the female cadre Ji Li heard that the Shangguo army was coming, she immediately ransacked the treasury in Daluo City, falsely conveyed the order of the king, and mobilized her own troops to escort them south. At that time, they entered Qinghua City to rest.
Despite her humble position, the female cadre not only ransacked the treasury of Thanh Hoa City by pretending to be ordered by the king of the country, and forced the gentry and dignitaries in the city to pay gold, silver, grain and grass, she also spread rumors that wherever the army of the Shangguo went, not a blade of grass grew, and the officers and soldiers of the Shangguo were all gone. It's a man-eating devil.
The people in the city were incited and frightened and fled out of the city secretly. "
After saying that, Chen Qiong seemed to have thought of something.
He straightened up suddenly and looked directly at Zhu Yunxi. Then he lowered his head silently and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the Guangxi Road in the Ming Dynasty was looted by Annan officers and soldiers last year, and it was all because of the female gangster." What Li Jiyou did was that he sent people to Guangxi. The purpose was to use the help of the superior country to eradicate the leader of the Annan Chen Dynasty so that he could take the opportunity to ascend to power!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled silently, but under Chen Qiong's nervous gaze, he waved his hand.
"The march of the army is quite tiring, so I need to rest for a while. The Ming army still has many helpers from the city lord in everything they do in Qinghua City."
How dare Chen Qiong refuse to agree? She nodded and got up from the ground, bending down: "I know this from my humble position, I know this from my humble position, and I will definitely live up to the great trust of His Majesty the Grand Sun."
After saying that, he exited all the way outside the tea room, carefully closed the door, and then left.
Subsequently.
In the tea room, only Zhu Gaochi was brewing tea, and the sound of water pouring tea into the tea cups could be heard.
Zhu Yunxi frowned and thought deeply. After a long time, he finally said, "Do you think what he said is true or false?"
Zhu Gaochi shrugged, put down the tea set in his hand, clapped his hands and said: "It's a lie to save Chen Hao, but it's true to kill him to take the opportunity to force Chen Hao to death. It's true to surrender, but like Li Jiya, he also covets Annan." The position of the king of the country."
"He knows our identity, and naturally also knows that Ming Dynasty wants to accept Annan as Jiaozhi Road." Zhu Yunxi expressed different opinions.
Zhu Gaochi smiled silently: "Guangxi, Guangdong, and Yunnan are all implementing policies of parallelism. What about Annan under the new conquest? Ming Dynasty always needs native Annan people to handle some inconveniences for the court. Ming Dynasty will handle them thing."
"Then the position of the leader of the Annan Kingdom, which has now existed in name only, is not Chen Qiong's ultimate goal." Zhu Yunxi finished speaking lightly, took a sip of tea, and then said: "The tea soup is weak. After all, the tea here is Not as good as me."
Zhu Gaochi curled his lips and said, "As long as he makes great achievements in Annan, he will seek to become a wealthy prince in Yingtian City."
Zhu Yunxi hummed and said: "Then, stay in Daluo City now, organize the left-behind officials and troops in Annan, and block Situ Chen Yuandan on the other side of Langshan Pass..."
"I have recognized the female cadre Li Ji Yao from Annan as a gang of female cadres and traitors!" Zhu Gaochi immediately replied in a deep voice.
This answer suits me very well.
So Zhu Yunxi laughed loudly: "Then I, the Ming Dynasty, traveled thousands of miles to come to Annan..."
Zhu Gaochi responded loudly with an unquestionable and righteous expression and tone: "Of course it was the Ming Dynasty who came to suppress the rebellion for Annan!".
