Chapter 375: The merit lies in the community

"It's a pity that it's not done!"

Seeing Liu Ximing for the first time, Cao Bianjiao sighed with annoyance.

Liu Ximing disagreed, killing one and the second, what a great achievement.

On the contrary, he was worried about whether Zuo Liangyu's gang would want to steal the credit.

"What are they going to do?"

Liu Ximing nodded at Zuo Liangyu and other generals who came over with a happy face.

Cao Bianjiao smiled silently, "Don't worry, with my brother here, no one can take away this credit." ”

While speaking, Zuo Liangyu and the others had already walked to the gate of the Imperial Tomb.

"Lao Cao, you have done such a great thing, such a great achievement, I am really envious of us."

Zuo Liangyu was already handsome and chic, but now he looks even more personable when he smiles.

Zu Dabi, Sun Xianzu and others who followed him also had envious looks.

Cao Bianjiao laughed loudly, "Don't worry, your brothers can come to the rescue, Cao naturally remembers the feelings, and Cao will definitely report this credit to the court truthfully." ”

"Speaking of which, you have to thank one person", Cao Bianjiao turned to look at Liu Ximing, and then turned around and smiled at a few people: "If it weren't for my brother who found out that the thief's movements were suspicious and specially notified Cao, this credit would not have fallen on you and my brother." ”

"It turned out to be Brother Liu's strategizing, and he was really a young hero, hahaha."

Liu Ximing used to drink with Zuo Liangyu and other generals when he was in Kaifeng, and of course everyone remembered him at this time.

If you want to talk about the generals under Hong Chengchou, Liu Ximing is most impressed by Zuo Liangyu, Zu Dabi and others.

After all, one was in Huguang for a while in history, and the other was the brother of Zu Dashou, the chief officer of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, so Liu Ximing couldn't pay more attention to it.

A group of people greeted each other at the city gate for a while, and immediately sent people to Fengyang City to investigate.

When they learned that more than 40 officials of all sizes, including the Fengyang Prefect and the Central Capital Left-behind Division, were all slaughtered, Cao Bianjiao and others hurriedly reported to Hong Chengchou and the imperial court respectively.

But in a day and a half, this urgent military report was put on the table of the celebrant supervisor.

"Ancestor, something is wrong, Fengyang has been ransacked by thieves."

At this time, Wang Chengen, who was only the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor and the eunuch of Bingbi, sweated profusely and handed Cao Bianjiao's recital to Cao Huachun.

"The rebel thief dared to fight the idea of the royal ancestral tomb, but fortunately, Liu Ximing, a Sichuan student, saw through it and notified the deputy chief soldier Cao Bianjiao to save it, so that the ancestors were not disturbed."

Wang Chengen took advantage of the time when Cao Huachun looked through it, and quickly told the content of the fold.

Cao Huachun turned it over a few times, and his face changed greatly.

"Bang"

The teacup on the coffee table was swept down by his sleeve.

"Deceive the sky, deceive the sky!"

Cao Huachun was furious, and immediately began to cry with tears in his eyes.

"Even the emperor's ancestral tomb dares to make up his mind, these gang of thieves

The son is not a man, a brute, a brute. ”

There was a cry in the celebrant prison.

Cao Huachun cried bitterly for a while before wiping away his tears and getting up.

"All go with our family to face the saint, such a big event must be known to the master immediately."

"Someone, prepare a sedan chair."

The celebrant and several big eunuchs in red official robes all hurried towards the Qianqing Palace, which shocked many palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chongzhen, dressed in black clothes, was sitting on the desk, and Empress Zhou was sitting on the side with a gentle face, busy with needlework in her hands.

Chongzhen looked up at the gentle and demure Queen Zhou from time to time, and a rare trace of warmth flashed in his eyes.

The hurried footsteps of Cao Huachun and the others broke the calm in the hall.

"Master, something is wrong."

Chongzhen had long been accustomed to the fuss of the inner prisoners, so he turned around and asked, "Where is the rebellion?" ”

Empress Zhou saw the strangeness of Cao Huachun and the others at a glance, and said in surprise: "Cao Daban, why do you make your eyes red?" ”

Chongzhen raised his head in shock.

Cao Huachun took the lead and knelt on the ground with a thud, and kept kowtowing with a crying voice: "The minions are useless, they can't share it for the master, something big has happened to the country." ”

"You are a minion, you have something to say, what kind of rules is this?"

Cao Huachun's style made Chongzhen shocked and angry, could he make his chief eunuch look like this, could something big happen.

Cao Huachun raised his head twitchingly, "The slave said, don't be angry, so as not to hurt your body." ”

While handing over Cao Bianjiao's recital, he reported: "Three days ago, the traitor Gao Yingxiang and other thieves took advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers had not arrived, passed through Shouzhou from Yingzhou, and went straight to Fengyang. ”

"The Fengyang defenders were caught off guard, and more than 40 officials from the prefect Yan Ruoxuan and the central capital were left behind below the prime minister of Zhu Guo."

"The rebel thief went to the Fengyang Emperor's Mausoleum again, breaking the ...... of the Tomb Army"

Cao Huachun was only halfway through speaking, and Chongzhen's hand holding the fold was already shaking wildly involuntarily.

Hearing that the imperial tomb was broken, he screamed even more, and almost fell directly to the ground, but fortunately, Queen Zhou held him up.

Cao Huachun also hurriedly stepped forward to support Chongzhen's back, "Don't be surprised, master, the slave hasn't finished talking yet." ”

"Although the Tomb Protector Army was broken, and the eunuchs guarding the Tomb and others were martyred, but fortunately, Liu Ximing, a member of Sichuan, cooperated with Cao Bianjiao, the deputy commander-in-chief, to repel the thieves in time, except for the looting of the Imperial Mausoleum Palace, the ancestral mausoleum was worry-free."

Rao is like this, and Chongzhen has already cried out with sadness.

"Angry, how dare a traitor do this?"

"Your Majesty is angry", in the Qianqing Palace, all the palace supervisors and palace maids knelt down and cried.

"Minions are useless"

"Not the Son of Man, Not the Son of Man......"

Chongzhen kept scolding the thief in his mouth, but he learned everything every day

It is the knowledge of elegance, and the scolding is all those words, which is even more pale and weak.

caused Queen Zhou and a group of ceremonial eunuchs to weep.

After a long time, Chongzhen came to his senses, after all, he heard that the mausoleum was not lost, and he was more worried about the dignity of the country.

But at this time, he didn't have the heart to look at the folds anymore, so he lay in Queen Zhou's arms and pointed to the ground, "Is there a detailed explanation of the origin of the folds?" ”

Cao Huachun wiped his tears and knelt down and kowtowed, "The twist is on Cao Bianjiao, and he said that this Liu Ximing told him that the thieves might attack the imperial tomb when the thieves were running eastward. ”

"When the thieves entered Nanzhili, Liu Ximing once wrote to the Nanjing Military Department to show his interests, but he was a student, and everyone regarded it as a joke, so how could anyone pay attention to him."

"In desperation, this Liu Ximing had to take his family to Fengyang alone, and God blessed him, and he really let him arrive when the thieves broke the city."

Cao Huachun raised his head and a trace of admiration flashed on his face, "This Liu Ximing is indeed a loyal and patriotic person, when he is in danger, he disregards the enemy and his outnumber, and directly leads his family to rush into battle, and fights with the traitor Zhang Xianzhong's department......"

"It's just that there are few people after all, and they were still broken into the imperial tomb city by Zhang Thief, but fortunately, at this time, Cao Bianjiao led his troops to arrive, and the two sides fought back and annihilated the thief army several times their own......"

"Later, the traitor Gao Yingxiang and other troops also wanted to plot against the imperial tomb, Cao Bianjiao Xingye summoned Zuo Liangyu, Zu Dabi and others to come to help, and finally defeated the enemy yesterday......"

Cao Huachun's explanation was so vivid that everyone in the hall couldn't help but listen with bated breath, and their ears seemed to hear the neighing sound on the battlefield.

Queen Zhou and the girls were all thrilled when they heard this, touched their chests, and praised with palpitations: "What a heroic boy." ”

Chongzhen smiled, but immediately changed his face and asked, "Then why is Liu Ximing in Nanzhili?" How can Cao Bianjiao catch up? ”

Cao Huachun carefully picked up the fold and flipped it over, "Master, Liu Ximing's friend Huang Zongxi is in Jiangnan, and this time he made a special trip to visit his friends." ”

"As for that Cao Bianjiao, he was originally responsible for chasing the rebel Luo Rucai's department, and he chased him from Shandong to Nanzhili by mistake, so that he could receive Liu Xi's request for help."

Chongzhen's face recovered, and he slapped his palms and laughed: "What a talent, brave and strategic, I have a good talent again." ”

"This sub-merit is in Sheji, Cao Daban, you quickly summon this matter to the cabinet, and order someone to verify it and agree on the merit as soon as possible."

After saying this, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and said: "The officials of Fengyang neglected their duties and almost humiliated the ancestral tomb, and the prefect of Fengyang and others have been martyred, so this matter will not be investigated, so where is Yang Yipeng, the governor of Fengyang?" ”

Cao Huachun thought for a while and hurriedly replied: "Back to the master, the last time I played, Yang Yipeng was still in Huai'an to check Caoyun. ”

"Huai'an, the thieves have hit Fengyang, what is he, the governor of Fengyang, doing, go, go and check immediately."

"Yes, the minion will do it."
