Gu Zizhong hurriedly supported his father-in-law, and called two servants to help him back to the room.

She secretly blamed herself in her heart, she really shouldn't have it, why are there so many mouths?

Now that the capital is surrounded by Tartar soldiers, the news has spread, and more and more people outside are discussing it.

Gu Zi was anxious, and sent several letters to Brother Zishan in a row.

I don't know if the letter can be sent to the capital.

She cooked herself, cooked chicken soup for her father-in-law, and served it to him.

Zhu Wangye was angry, but he was just so angry that his heart ached, he drank two sips of soup and lay on the bed for a while before he got better.

Gu Zizhong persuaded: "Dad, I have already sent a letter to Brother Zishan." So don't worry, we'll know soon how he's doing in the capital. ”

Zhu Wangye was very pleased, after all, he had such a sensible daughter-in-law at home.

Gu Zizhong waited for him to drink the soup, and called the nurse to take care of her father-in-law.

She went to the barracks to see what was going on.

She didn't dare to look around, for fear that when she saw Zhu Ziqin, she would not be able to speak.

She took a special path and found Wu Yicheng.

Wu Yicheng didn't notice anything unusual at all.

"County Lord, you are too careful. Brother Zhu Ziqin is bent on following us. How could he betray us and go to King Kang again?" Wu Yicheng said easily.

After Gu Zi listened to it again, the whole person felt much more comfortable.

After all, like this situation, she was too reluctant to see it.

The last thing she wants is for the people she trusts the most to betray her.

But it's okay now.

Gu Zizhong said again about the Tartar soldiers' attack on the capital.

Wu Yicheng knows, but he is also hearsay.

Guo Zhishi on the side said: "This matter has spread, my brother in the palace, the imperial guard, or the imperial walk." Several of them sent me letters, saying that there was chaos in the palace. Because the little emperor was young and ignorant and did not understand the government and politics, the empress dowager was too old to grasp power. Therefore, there were several factions in the imperial court at once. Several factions quarreled with each other, but there was nothing to do, which gave the Tatars an opportunity. ”

It's quite hilarious, but why isn't he in a hurry at all?

Gu Zizhong felt that Guo Zhishi was watching a play on the sidelines.

She frowned, but the corners of her mouth were closed, and she murmured, "Then you don't have any ideas?"

Guo Zhishi shook his head: "What can I do, we are thousands of miles away from the capital here, even if I want to save it, but far water can't save the near fire." ”

He shook his head and sighed, recalling his old days in the palace.

He was an errand boy for the emperor back then, but he was loyal, and wasn't he still demoted later?

Guo Zhishi was also unlucky in the palace, and the first emperor had passed away, so he didn't have any worries.

Gu Zizhong just smiled, then turned around and walked out of the barracks.

When she got home, she heard a great thing.

Zhu Wangye called her to his side and showed her Zhu Changxi's letter.

Gu Zizhong was still thinking in her heart, the letter she wrote to Brother Zishan was still on the way, right?

After receiving the letter, she realized that Brother Zishan had taken the place of the original commander of the soldiers and horses of the five cities, led the Imperial Forest Army, as well as Dongchang and Jinyi Guard, and came to a "capital defense battle" solidly.

The Empress Dowager handed over all the military power in her hands to Zhu Changxi at a time of embarrassment.

Zhu Changxi also lived up to the expectations of the Empress Dowager and guarded the capital.

Moreover, at this time, the Ming army who came from Gyeonggi was also about to arrive, and they planned to flank the front and back, sandwiching the Tartar soldiers in the middle.

Gu Zi looked at it again, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, but it looked very flat.

Zhu Wangye's brows bloomed: "Zishan, who I have personally trained for so many years, is finally able to take over my burden." ”

Gu Zizhong was also happy for Brother Zishan.

Brother Zishan can be regarded as having made a great contribution to the court.

Gu Zizhong hurriedly suggested: "Dad, without further ado, let's quickly transfer all the men and horses of the Jinling Barracks over to reinforce the capital, right?"

Zhu Wangye was stunned, and then glared angrily.

Gu Zizhong didn't dare to speak.

Zhu Wangye sighed, smiled bitterly, and said, "Zizhong, after all, you are just a woman, and you don't know the art of war. We are too far away from the capital, even if we bring troops over now, I am afraid that it will be delayed. So now the Ming army around the capital is what we need to mobilize the most. ”

My father-in-law underestimated her.

From the words of his father-in-law, Gu Zizhong had already heard the clues.

Jinling's soldiers and horses are used for self-defense, and in the future, if the princes surnamed Zhu in the court are messed up, their Jinling Zhu family will also have people and horses to defend themselves.

Although the country's affairs are big now, I have to think about my own affairs after all.

Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, this is what Zhu Wangye is afraid of.

Therefore, the people and horses of Jinling are the lifeblood of the Zhu family in Jinling, and they can't be moved.

They also happened to take this opportunity to move the Ming army around the capital, and Zhu Changxi collected all the Ming troops there by the way.

The military power naturally fell into the hands of Zhu Changxi at that time.

Kill two birds with one stone!

My father-in-law is so thoughtful.

Gu Zizhong only smiled slightly on the surface and did not speak.

Zhu Wangye coughed and asked Gu Zi to help him up.

Gu Zizhong helped him sit down at the table, and he picked up his pen to write a letter to Zhu Changxi.

Gu Zizhong understood the rules, twisted his head to the side, and didn't look at it.

When his father-in-law finished writing the letter, Gu Zizhong turned his head.

He instructed Gu Zizhong: "You must give this letter to the person you trust the most, and you must not miss it a little." ”

Gu Zizhong understood, turned around and left the room.

The nurse and a few other servants came in and waited for Zhu Wangye to return to bed and lie down.

Gu Zizhong handed over the letter to his confidant and asked him to prepare a fast horse, and he must send it to the capital day and night.

After this was done, she was relieved.

But she couldn't rest, and Zhu Ziqin came to her.

It scared the hell out of her.

didn't know what was going on, knowing that Zhu Ziqin might have an affair with King Kang Mian, Gu Zizhong didn't dare to look at Zhu Ziqin squarely.

Zhu Ziqin was strange, looking at the county lord wrong.

Gu Zizhong twisted around, and he only spoke to him.

Zhu Ziqin paused, waited for a while, and said, "County Lord, you must already know about me, right?"

Gu Zizhong let out an "ah" and almost lost his temper.

Zhu Ziqin smiled bitterly and said, "The county lord doesn't have to hide it, I've been very abnormal in the past two days, and your eyeliner should tell you." ”

Gu Zi frowned heavily and didn't know how to answer.

Zhu Ziqin continued: "I did have contact with King Kang Mian. There's no way you don't know. Besides, I tell you, Lord of the County, that I have met King Kang Mian again. ”
