Chapter 149: Scourge

On the second floor of the city tower, the eunuch knelt down to Chang Yu as soon as he went upstairs: "Humble and strict morality, knock on the factory governor."

"Get up and speak", Chang Yu beckoned slightly, and then walked to the window and looked outside: "Does the emperor have a secret decree?" ”

"Yes" Yan Deshou took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Chang Yu.

Chang Yu opened it and looked at it for a while, then stuffed it into his arms and exhaled a long breath: "The palace has been peaceful recently."

Yan Deshou approached and smiled slightly when he heard this: "The palace is very good, and the business of the Imperial Horse Supervisor is also very lively."

Chang Yu also smiled, it seems that the popularity of the boxing match has not decreased: "How big is it?" ”

"I don't know to what extent I am humble, but I know that the people of the Imperial Horse Supervisor are in the theater under the Dashilar and are being renovated!"

Chang Yu smiled again, Zhu Cihong, this kid is really obedient and capable, it seems that the business is really good, this Yan Deshou can know about this, it can be seen that he has seen the prince before he came.

"My lord, there is a humble duty to tell you

Yan Deshou suddenly looked cautious.

"Say"

"Recently, the court has been very critical of you, and even the capital is full of gossip about you!" Yan Deshou said and secretly looked at Chang Yu's face.

"The prince asked you to tell the governor," Chang Yu said lightly, and he was helpless in his heart, the emperor's imperial technique really made people ice and fire.

Yan Deshou nodded and said: "The courtiers and Qingliu scolded you for being the second Wei Zhongxian, and all kinds of rumors in the capital are attacking you for looting the people's ointment, persecuting officials, and blackmailing nobles, which is a scourge......"

Chang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, Chongzhen used him and believed him, but on the one hand, he had to prevent him from controlling him, on the one hand, he gave you a knife to help him do things and help him kill people, and on the other hand, he let you be isolated from the black pot and spurned by 10,000 people, so you can only hide obediently under his wings, isn't this Wei Zhongxian.

"Presumably, those civil servants in the court don't know who this governor is!" Chang Yu thought it was funny, his reputation was in the inner palace, among the few royal nobles who were blackmailed, but few of the court and the opposition really knew about him.

"But no, the emperor issued a holy decree, when the news of Jiang Huang's killing reached the capital, those ministers went crazy to ask about you, and then the capital was full of all kinds of gossip to smear you" Yan Deshou said and said in a low voice: "Even Lord Li, the first assistant, is very dissatisfied with you, and repeatedly advises the emperor not to follow the old path of Xizong."

The Wenchen Sect of the Donglin Party, which has mastered the guidance of public opinion, plus those nobles who have been blackmailed, Chang Yu doesn't need to think about it at all to know what his reputation in the capital has reached at this time.

Qingliu kills people with a mouth without a knife, even if he is lucky enough to escape, he will cause a commotion, Chang Yu knows the horror of public opinion persecution, but Lao Tzu is not afraid, as long as the people and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty say that I am good, as for those civil servants and nobles, they have to clean up slowly and play public opinion, Lao Tzu has crossed over from the era of the circle of friends with v thin v letters, that is, the water army can drown you.

"My lord, I heard that the thief army is in Pingyang Mansion at this time, Taiyuan...... Are you sure you can hold it? Yan Deshou asked suddenly.

Chang Yu glanced up at him: "To be exact, the thief army is already in Fenzhou Mansion at this time, if it is not bad as expected, Fenzhou Mansion has already descended at this time."

Yes! Yan Deshou was shocked: "That, that, Taiyuan ......"

"Taiyuan, our family will do their best to defend it!" Chang Yu looked out the window, his face was unusually cold.

"The emperor said, if Taiyuan can't hold it, those ministers will be more radical, I'm afraid it will be even more unfavorable to you...... If you keep Taiyuan, forgive those civil servants and naturally shut up." Yan Deshou said.

Chang Yu smiled slightly, Chongzhen's beating meaning, he didn't know, so he nodded: "This governor knows, you go down to rest, if you don't hurry back to Beijing, you will stay."

"Back to my lord, the emperor let the humble post stay on the errand" Yan De guarded.

Chang Yu nodded: "Go find Zheng Xingguo."

Yan Deshou left, Chang Yu went out of the side room, but saw that in the lobby, Zhou Yuji, Cai Maode and others were all looking at him silently.

"What are you doing, there are a lot of things in front of you, why are you still stunned here if you don't do it" Chang Yu frowned.

"Lord Factory Governor, the emperor asked you to ......," Cai Maode spoke.

"The emperor asked our family to do whatever you do, just do your own thing, General Zhou is still in charge of military affairs, you are in charge of civil affairs, our family will not do anything except plan to do anything, so let's take care of money and food" said and turned around and walked out: "Let's go to the palace."

Everyone was stunned by his words, this little eunuch really doesn't play cards according to common sense, and he really doesn't interfere in military affairs! It doesn't seem to be exactly a liar, well, it's a liar who talks the talk.

Chang Yu took Chunxiang and the others to meet the radiant Tang Potian as soon as they got down from the city tower.

When he got up to wash before, Chang Yu learned from Chunxiang that Tang Potian returned to the city at dawn, and it seemed that he had slept until now, but he didn't see Wu Mengming, and he thought that this product was still asleep.

"Where is the factory governor, have you ever eaten, if you don't eat, please find a place to drink" Tang Potian smiled, he had a good personal relationship with Chang Yu, and he was always cautious when talking to him like others.

"What time is it?" Chang Yu pursed his lips: "It's going to be dark before you eat lunch."

"It's dark and I have nothing to drink" Tang Potian was still giggling, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Yes, you can't afford the wine we drink, so let's go to the palace to drink some good wine."

"Oh, it turns out that the lord is going to the palace, so let's go with you, stain the light."

"Don't mind, go to the door, I'm going empty-handed and bringing so many mouths, I can't fall that way, I can't afford to lose that person"

Chang Yu flatly refused, and then asked in a low voice: "The silver should be hidden."

"Well, the heavy defense is very low-key" Tang Potian squeezed his eyes.

"Send all the silver, the present hair that was promised before, and the brothers have been working too hard lately, let them take the silver to find some fun and relax." Chang Yu said.

Tang Potian was overjoyed: "It's true that I didn't hide my humble position and came to you for this" said and squeezed his eyes, looking obscene.

"I know what to pull when you open your mouth" Chang Yu said: "Remember to allocate it out of the camp, don't run away and no one will look at the silver, the silver is our private goods, and tell them to have fun, don't cause trouble."

"Got it"

Tang Potian rushed away.

"Would you like to relax and have some fun?"

Chang Yu turned his head and asked Xia Chunxin, Jiang Quan and his attendants.

The eunuch army went out of Beijing with 300 people this time, and several of the leaders were Chang Yu's henchmen, who lived in the barracks at this time, and Chunxiang and Jiang Quan were his henchmen, with the strongest twenty people in the eunuch army, to protect Chang Yu closely, and they never got a good rest.

"What is there to relax," Chunxiang pouted. The so-called fun-seekers are nothing more than eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.

Eat, he followed Chang Yu to eat anything, and he didn't eat badly

Drink, the eunuch himself does not like wine, and it is better to drink less in his duty

Look, what, you tmd again.

Gamble, this thing is okay, but first, how much gambling has been in the palace, and second, it is easy to be hacked if you are not familiar with life.

So they and their attendants are not interested, and they feel that it is better to follow Chang Yu to the palace chief to see it, as for those soldiers who like to have fun, it is completely understandable, they are all licking blood with knives, and there is no tomorrow after today, there is wine today and drunk today.

There is a saying in Taiyuan, there is a Jin palace first, and then there is Taiyuan City.

There is some truth in this, Taiyuan City from the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty every dynasty has been moved, as early as the first generation of the Ming Dynasty Jin King Zhu Yuanzhang family Zhu Yuanzhang before the third Zhu Li in Taiyuan, he entrusted his father-in-law Yongping Hou to help him build the city.

Why did others build a palace on the domain, why did Zhu Laosan build a city?

Just because the Song Dynasty Taiyuan is only a small earthen city with a narrow circumference of no more than ten miles, to the end of the Yuan Dynasty and after several wars, it has long been withered and dilapidated, ten rooms and nine empty, comparable to Lanruo Temple.

After Xie Cheng arrived in Taiyuan, he surveyed the geography, and felt that the old Song family was too broken, not as good as the Tang elders, so he wanted to rebuild on this foundation, but just laid the foundation pile, suddenly a gust of wind, blowing down these infrastructures, the ancients were superstitious, and felt that it may be that the old Zhu family could not hold the heritage of the Tang elders, no way, so they built the city on the foundation of the old Song family, and expanded in the three directions of the southeast, north and south, of course, the palace was built at the same time, and the west wall of the palace was the east city wall of the Song Dynasty.

There are four gates in the palace, namely Donghua Gate, Nanhua Gate, Xihua Gate, Houzai Gate, Nanhua Gate is the main gate of the palace, Donghua Gate is close to the Yichun Gate of one of the east gates of Taiyuan City, and outside the Nanhua Gate is the government unit of Taiyuan Mansion, the Department of Administration, the Governor's Department, the Taiyuan Mansion Office is all over there, as for the north gate outside the more desolate, only the temple of Bao'en.

The sky was getting dark, Chang Yu hit the horse and hurried, and after a while, he arrived outside the Nanhua Gate of the palace, and only the royal family Ding went to report the name on the newspaper.

Unlike in Datong who asked to see the acting king, Chang Yu had no power at that time, and could only pretend to be a little eunuch in Dongchang to come to the door, and he had to pull Wei Jingyu and Wu Mengming to be strong.

But at this time, he is the supervisor of Daming Dongchang, and he is also ordered to supervise Taiyuan military affairs.

The factory governor's signboard really worked, and in a short period of time, Chang Yu was welcomed into the palace by the palace chief, passed through the hall, and finally met the king of Jin in a warm hall.

When they met, both of them were shocked, obviously they didn't expect each other to be so young.

The history of the Ming Dynasty has been tampered with beyond recognition, and there are countless contradictions, so take the King of Jin as an example, many historical sources say that the last Jin King Zhu Qiugui was born in 1610 and died in 1644, and was killed by the thief army after breaking the city, and in fact Zhu Qiugui died in the third year of Chongzhen, that is, in 1630, did he only live twenty years old?

In fact, the birthday is not reliable, the last Jin king is not Zhu Qiugui but his son Zhu Xianxuan (Xuan) five years after his father's death to attack the king, until 1648 was killed by the Qing court, but his birthday is also unreliable, but from his father's early death, and it was the year of his death that he was hastily appointed as the son, five years later to attack the title of the prince inferred that he should not be very old, this Chang Yu is psychologically prepared.

However, at first sight, I was still shocked, and at a glance, sixteen or seventeen years old, this is a young prince.

Young age, so foolish!
