Chapter 236: Chunxiang returns to Beijing

At the three gates of the Great South Gate Tower, Chang Yu leaned sideways against the window and looked south, squinting his eyes and frowning.

"Do you remember when you were in the palace and you were in a hurry to find a way to leave the palace every day after you recovered from your injuries?" Chunxiang stared at Chang Yu on the side and said thoughtfully.

Chang Yu snorted and turned his head to look at him.

"And at this time, you are in power, you are not the lowly little eunuch at that time, but you are also involved in the torrent" Chunxiang sighed.

Chang Yu closed his eyes and exhaled a long breath: "The sword has not yet been cast, and it is already a river and lake when you go out!" I can't help myself in the rivers and lakes, Chunxiang! ”

"Is it really involuntarily, or really don't want to go, if you want to go, who can stop you at this time" Chunxiang said softly.

"How much ability you have to bear how much responsibility, at the beginning I was a lowly little eunuch, and at that time my biggest wish was to escape from the palace guard with you."

Chang Yu sighed slightly: "However, I am powerful and powerful at this time, but I want to be a coward and escape, let the people of the world suffer in fire and water, and I am willing to live for the rest of my life, let the thieves bring disaster to the country and the people, and let the Tartars wreak havoc on my Daming country?" ”

"I know that you are loyal and patriotic, and I know that you will eventually be vigorous, but I am afraid that you will not die well!" Chunxiang roared, tears broke out in his eyes: "You soared too fast, attracting people's eyes, you acted perversely to offend so many people, attracted people's jealousy, you did things unscrupulously for the sake of the end, carried too many pots, and eventually ......" said and cried.

Chang Yu approached Chunxiang, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, his heart was moved, he became popular overnight, soared, offended so many people, and more people slapped him, but only Chunxiang can really maintain his original intention, this simple and kind little eunuch has never been proud of the mountain with his back, but has always been walking on thin ice.

He has no literary talent and no force, but he is indeed the person who cares about Chang Yu the most!

"The sky treats me thinly, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, you don't have to worry, take a salary into Beijing, take care of your injuries, and after I succeed, you and my brother will get drunk!"

Chang Yu comforted.

"Do you have to go back to Beijing?" Chunxiang had a bitter face: "If you ......"

"If I die in battle, you should go out of the city immediately and go south, the farther the better!" Chang Yu looked cautious, but then laughed again: "But I can't die, so you wait for me to go back in the capital."

"But why do you have to go back, I'm not seriously injured and bedridden......"

"Chunxiang, it's just one of them that I let you go back to Beijing to recuperate, but it's not the ultimate root, you just said it, I have offended too many people, and there are too many people who want me to die, the palace is my foundation, and I need someone to sit in charge, understand!"

Chunxiang seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he felt that it made sense, so he stopped being entangled, and nodded heavily: "Then when can you go back as soon as possible, and you tell the truth, can Taiyuan hold it?" ”

Chang Yu's eyes passed through the window, and only fell on the continuous fire in the south of the city: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether Taiyuan can hold it or not, what matters is whether the thief is beheaded by me or beheaded this time!" ”

"It's better to dismantle eight pieces!" Chunxiang burst into tears and laughed!

"Okay, I'll do what you want" Chang Yu laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go early!" ”

"Take care!" Chunxiang wiped away his tears, smiled at Chang Yu, and turned to go downstairs.

The beacon fire of the thief army camp in the south of the city stretched for several miles, looking at it in the dark night, the momentum was even more amazing, and the people in the city frowned deeply, their faces were heavy, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

At this time, the arch gate in the north of the city was wide open, and dozens of large vehicles slowly drove out, followed by nearly a thousand soldiers to escort them.

Out of the city gate, Chunxiang glanced back at the towering city wall in the dark night, gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to wipe his eyes, and shouted: "Hurry, cross the Yanmen Pass before dawn"

In the past, only the imperial court sent money to the local firing line, and there has never been such a reciprocal behavior, but at this time, it really happened, the reason is very simple, the imperial court is too poor, and there are too many places to spend money.

Chunxiang led this escort army with only a thousand men, barely reaching the standard, because Taiyuan really couldn't draw up extra manpower at this time.

Even if these thousands of people and horses arrived at Yanmen Pass, they had to turn back, and the rest of the way was escorted by garrisons in the places. He held Chang Yu's warrant, and it was reasonable and legal to mobilize local troops to escort him along the way in the name of Dongchang.

The night has ended, the sky is dark, the cold wind is whistling, Xiao is killing, the bonfire of the thief army camp outside the city is booming, the officers and soldiers spy in the trench from time to time to visit, occasionally and the thief army spies have a face-to-face, shouting and scolding in the air, but neither side has moved.

Yang Zhenwei's troops under the city have entered the city to rest, and Wang Yongkui's men and horses have adjusted the defense, and set up strict patrol posts around the city, and the main force is still stationed in front of the south gate.

"The thief army did not get any benefits in the afternoon, and they will definitely not give up, and tonight is an uneven night......"

In the city tower of the Great South Gate, Wang Jimo's face was solemn, and he sighed softly, and everyone around him thought it was.

"The thieves are scouting and going around the city, do you think the thieves will send troops to besiege the city, or abandon the south gate to attack the other gates?" Cai Maode looked up and swept everyone and asked.

After the two confrontations between the enemy and me in the afternoon, the thief army's probe horses continued to circle the city, but at this time it was dark, and Zhou Yuji ordered not to intercept it, because there was no real meaning, and there were few people to stop it, and the army went out of the city and hit its hands, so if it was allowed to see it.

"The south gate has the best fortifications, and the thieves have to pay a heavy price just to get close to the moat and reach the city, but the west gate and the north gate have few fortifications except for the moat, so I think it is very likely that the thieves will give up attacking the south gate and change to something else," said Mao Wenbing, the superintendent.

"So, let's try our best to intercept the thief army at the south gate, and think about other gates, but we have to pay a terrible price!" Deputy Chief Soldier Ying Shisheng said and glanced at Zhou Yuji.

"I'm afraid that its two-pronged approach or the sound of attacking the east and west, and the feints of each door, the virtual and the real are not only true, but they can make me and wait to mobilize troops back and forth and get tired."

Zhou Yuji also frowned deeply, but he thought that Chang Yu was the most clever and liked to take the pulse of the thief, and the number was quite accurate, and listen to his opinion, but this guy is also strange, when the thief is hundreds of miles away, he is almost present at all the discussions, on the contrary, now the soldiers are in the city, but the dragon does not see the head and the end, and does not show his face.

"All in all, you can't let the thieves besiege the city easily, but for now, let's deal with it tonight, this will be the first sleepless night," Cai Maode sighed deeply.

In the dead of night, outside the high wall of the Jin Palace, Chang Yu did not take off his armor, crossed the knife with his right hand, and walked along the street outside the wall with his head held high, followed by more than ten guards.

One of them is the new henchman Tu Yuan.

Tu Yuan was behind Chang Yu at this time, staring at the figure of the person in front of him in amazement, this person was injured an hour ago, but he was able to turn over and get on the horse by himself in less than half an hour, and at this time, he was able to stride a meteor, where it looked like a leg injury, if it wasn't for the power of Gu Kecheng that he saw with his own eyes, he really thought that Chang Yu was pretending.

How did he know that Chang Yu's body was different from ordinary people, with extraordinary self-healing functions, and the wound healed quickly, as long as it wasn't the kind of heavy blow that was hit by a headshot, it was really difficult to die!

Chang Yu had just listened to the hidden reports of Qin Xing, Jiang Quan and others from Jinyiwei's secret courtyard, and when he came out, it was already past the unitary hour, that is, more than seven o'clock in the evening.

Walking more than 100 meters, there is a yamen in front, and the side glance is the political secretary's office, which is just diagonally opposite the Xihua gate of the Jin Palace.
