King Fu is also known as King Fu Gong, the third son of Shenzong, the fief Luoyang, this person is also a lawless and violent levy, Fubi Palace, plus Chongzhen's imperial uncle, the status is noble, indispensable, and his person is extremely fat, that is, when the thief army besieged Luoyang, he was stingy and couldn't pay a penny, and as a result, he was caught by the thief army when the city was broken, and he was steamed in the pot!

"What do you mean by that?" Zhu Chuanji's face was angry.

Chang Yu was not afraid: "Lord, looking at the past, the King of Xiang in Xiangyang, the King of Zhou in Kaifeng, the King of Fu in Luoyang, the King of Qin in Xi'an, the thief army has passed, not only the family property is not guaranteed, but the head is not guaranteed, at this time the thief army is close to Taiyuan, if Taiyuan is not protected, who will be next!" ”

Zhu Chuanji, who originally wanted to get angry, was silent immediately when he heard this.

In fact, the real historical records record that after the thief army broke Taiyuan, Wei Jingyu went to the palace of the king to ask for help, and the king responded very happily, not that he was reasonable, anxious for justice and righteousness, but the cruel reality was in front of him, so he finally donated 30,000 yuan of silver, 50,000 Hu (five buckets for a Hu, about 62.5 catties) of grain.

"But there is a King of Jin in Taiyuan, why don't you ask him to borrow it" Zhu Chuan held back this sentence for a long time, but the momentum was no longer there.

"It's hard to quench your thirst in the far water, you can't transfer troops if you don't have money here, and you may not be able to hold Taiyuan without soldiers, and besides, when you turn back and gather in Taiyuan, can the King of Jin, who eats and drinks Lasa, watch and ignore it?"

There was silence, and the hall was unusually quiet.

"You make sure that you can return the king within half a month?" "Zhu Chuanji is a good answer.

Chang Yu and the three of them were overjoyed: "It will be repaid within half a month, and the lowly and Wei Daren Wu can jointly guarantee it, and if the food is not enough, it can be deducted according to the equivalent silver taels."

That being said, Chang Yu had already made a decision in his heart, the silver could be returned, and the grain! No way! This year, having milk is the mother! Everything else is puffy clouds.

"You and the other three have to establish a guarantee," Zhu Chuanji sighed after speaking.

In this way, he was bluffed and frightened, and the three of them made a written guarantee, and the acting king finally agreed to borrow money and grain.

However, 200,000 taels of silver and more than 600 tons of grain are not small amounts, and they can't be pulled without a few hundred carriages, and Chang Yu really can't transfer so many carts for a while.

It was only an advance of 50,000 taels of silver, and a little grain and rice, and it was agreed that the rest would be mentioned tomorrow, and the two sides had a chat on specific matters, such as the 600 tons of grain could not be rice, and the palace did not have so much inventory, so it could only be replaced by grains and grains, but if there was no grain to repay when repaying, it should be calculated at the price of white rice.

There is a lot of difference between the price of whole grains and white rice, but Chang Yu also agreed, why? Because he didn't plan to repay the grain at all, just like Wu Mengming and Wei Jingyu once quietly asked him, it's just enough to borrow silver, why should he borrow so much grain, because he can borrow it from the Taiyuan Jin Palace, and he just prevaricates with the excuse of just in case of time.

Coming out of the palace with 50,000 taels of silver and five carts of grain and rice, it was only more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and there happened to be a Jinyi guard to report: He Chengxin's men and horses had arrived five miles away from Datong and asked if they could enter the city to rest.

Chang Yu shook his head and ordered him to rest on the spot outside the city, and the soldiers ordered the family members and government guards who were resting in the military camp in the north of the city to immediately go out of the city to light a fire and cook a good reception.

Later, Chang Yu ordered Wu Mengming to go to the military camp in the west of the city to urge the troops, and he must set off tonight, and implement the cash reward mechanism to let them arrive in Taiyuan as soon as possible, and at the same time calculate the arrears of food and salary, and inform them to distribute it tomorrow, so as to stabilize the morale of the army and prevent Jiang Hao from taking the opportunity to do things again.

"Lao Tzu settles the accounts for him, and he doesn't owe anything" Chang Yu snorted coldly, and then said to Wei Jingyu: "Lord Wei will go back to the house to rest first, and then we will bother after our family is busy."

Wei Jingyu had a foot disease and couldn't stand for a long time, he knew that Chang Yu was going outside the city, and he didn't plan to cause trouble, so he arched his hand and said: "There will be a banquet in the house at night!" ”

Chang Yu thanked him, Wei Jingyu actually meant to invite him to stay in the Governor's Mansion, knowing that it was impossible for him and Jiang Hao to live in the General Soldier's Mansion anymore, and it was too shabby to live in the barracks, so they wouldn't go to the guest house.

Bidding farewell to Wei Jingyu, Chang Yu took Chunxiang and more than 20 other entourages and silver cars to the north of the city, and just arrived near the military camp in the north of the city, he happened to meet Luo Tang and other family members and a hundred soldiers led by Tang Potian.

"Chang Gonggong" Tang Potian immediately grinned and rushed over when he saw Chang Yu, he and Chang Yu had a good relationship, but they rarely saw each other along the way, and they almost didn't speak, because one was at the end of the team, and the other was in the team, and they could only chat a few words when they were resting.

"Hey, take a closer look, your cheekiness is really much rougher than before you left Beijing" Chang Yu saw that Tang Potian was also in a good mood, so he joked.

"How can I compare with you, if you have a car to shelter from the wind and rain, our lives are hard" Tang Potian smiled and then changed the topic: "Don't say that He Chengxin is still hard enough, these more than 400 miles, I have walked on two legs for two days and nights."

"It's hard enough" Chang Yu also sighed sincerely, but there is no way, the temptation of silver is extremely powerful, imagine that ordinary soldiers only have four or five taels of silver a year, but in front of them, they only need to arrive on time to receive two taels of silver, and one is half a year's income, can these hard-working people not fight.

Erli north of the city, in the wilderness, Luo Tang and others have begun to boil water to cook porridge in the branch pot, the water is pulled from the military camp, the rice is Chang Yu just borrowed from the palace, and there is even broth in addition to the state.

The meat is horse meat, a few horses killed when they were attacked by thieves in Xuanfu a few days ago, Chang Yu did not abandon the corpse in the wilderness, but directly slaughtered and took it away, boiling soup all the way for the soldiers to warm up and replenish their strength.

In fact, when Luo Tang and the others were on fire, they saw soldiers and horses in the distance, and when they got closer, Chang Yu opened his eyes and couldn't help exclaiming, I'm dripping mom.

Not to mention that those soldiers were discouraged, crumbling and exhausted, even the horseback military attachés led by He Chengxin were also sloppy and tired

However, when they saw Chang Yu, He Chengxin and the others swept away their fatigue and grinned: "Father-in-law Chang, is it too late to be humble?" ”

"It's not too late, it's not too late!" Chang Yu nodded, and then looked behind him, the team stretched for several miles, and he couldn't see the head, and at this time, Chunxiang and the others who had ridden to check before also came over to report: A rough count, more than six thousand, which means that at least two thousand people are left behind, not to mention the baggage.

Grunt, He Chengxin was full of water, and stretched out a finger to Chang Yu: "One, one day and night, one day and night the water and rice have not entered!" ”

"Then I'll let you have fun tonight" Chang Yu laughed, and then said: "As long as you arrive here tonight, you will be rewarded with silver!" ”

Wow, the soldiers who were drinking water or resting on the ground cheered.

Chang Yu will even adjust the atmosphere, and wave his hand: "Send silver"

Then the attendant opened the box and released the silver.

personally sent a hundred taels of silver to He Chengxin's hand, He Chengxin was overjoyed, and kept thanking, and the soldiers who were queuing up to receive the silver behind him were all even more radiant, and the fatigue just now seemed to be swept away.

Chang Yu stood sideways, looking at the prospect in front of him, his heart was extremely depressed, and he was silent for a long time.

Chang Yu didn't leave until the gate of the city was closed, and a steady stream of new people and horses were coming at this time, and Jiang Hao, who was the chief soldier of Datong, never showed up, I really don't know what he was busy with.

With the remaining 30,000 taels of silver, Chang Yu prepared to return to the city, leaving Luo Tang and other family members to serve He Chengxin's department, and promised He Chengxin to rest until tomorrow morning.

Staying overnight in the wilderness, although it was hard, but it was a common thing for the army, and the bushes in the wilderness were overgrown and the fuel was sufficient, so heating was not a problem, but there was a reason why they were not allowed to go into the city and enter the barracks to rest.

First, the city gate will be closed immediately, and He Chengxin will have the rest to arrive one after another, so it is convenient to gather.

Second, entering the barracks requires Jiang Hao to go through the formalities, Chang Yu hates him deeply and is too lazy to toss.

In the end, he and Tang Potian pressed the silver to enter Datong before the city gate closed.

"Father-in-law Chang, I'll escort you back to the General Soldier's Mansion" After entering the city, Tang Potian proposed, he thought that Chang Yu was going to bring the silver back.

"No" Chang Yu shook his head: "You take the silver back to the barracks directly, and I will go to the governor's yamen to find Lord Wei later, as for the general military mansion, and the eight sedan chairs Lao Tzu will not go."

"Hey, it seems that Grandpa Chang and Jiang Hao don't deal with each other," Tang Potian said with a smile.

Chang Yu was noncommittal, and said: "Be clever at night, Datong is Jiang Jiu's territory, this thing is very fond of making bad, you don't want to go out of the camp at will, let alone act alone, even if it is in the barracks."

Tang Potian nodded, but also said: "I think those soldiers in the camp are very good and willing to play with us."

"That's it, you are the government guards, the emperor's own soldiers, who doesn't want to stutter" Chang Yu pouted, Tang Potian smiled hesitantly: "Actually, the soldiers are like that, the good or bad depends on the superiors, and the people below only want to make a living, and can only obey orders."

Chang Yu nodded slightly: "What I'm afraid of is that the heart above is not right."

The two chatted while walking, but before they arrived at the gate of the barracks, they met Wu Mengming with more than 20 Jinyi guards coming to meet them.

"Yang Zhenwei has left the city, and he and I promised to go to Taiyuan within three days!"

"How much is out of him?" Chang Yu smiled slightly.

"One hundred taels, the same as He Chengxin" Wu Mengming said and sighed: "Money is really a good thing."

"Yes, money has invincible power" Chang Yu's expression was numb, soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, but now they need silver to supervise, which is really ironic.

After arriving at the military camp in the north of the city and settling down briefly, Chang Yu and Wu Mengming left to go to the governor's mansion for a banquet.

The military camp is in the northeast of the city, the general military palace is in the southeast of the city, and the governor's yamen is in the southwest of the city.

"If it really can't be compared with the capital, the streets of the capital will not be so deserted at this time" Wu Mengming rode on a horse and swept the streets, and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's natural, but it also has to be divided into places, there is a big fence in the capital, and Datong should also have a corresponding night street, why can't Lord Wu want to be happy." Chang Yu quipped.

Hey, Wu Mengming laughed: "I'm tired all the way, how can I still have that energy."

"You can pull it down, your body is tired, and it has something to do with the hurry, it should be tossed in the General Soldier's Mansion last night" Chang Yu said and laughed, turned his head and squeezed his eyebrows at Chunxiang and the others: "Everyone said yes...... Oh! ”

At the moment when Chang Yu turned his head, with a whoosh, a sharp arrow grazed his face, hitting his arrow, and he fell to the ground with a heel.
