Chapter Forty-Nine: A Rare Opportunity

And Han Zanzhou immediately added: "What Xin Chengbo said is very true, this matter can be solved as long as His Majesty personally goes to Yanziji, it really makes Zhang Niangniang and Liu Yongxi anxious, what if they invite Xingping Bo Gao Jie out, half of Jingkou Town is Gao Jie's old department!" ”

Although Emperor Hongguang felt that Han Zanzhou and Zhao Zhilong's suggestion was very reasonable, and also felt that it was not a good choice to force Liu Yongxi to be anxious now, he didn't like such a suggestion in his heart.

So his gaze could only turn to Lu Jiude, who was kneeling below: "Lu Bingbi, you have experienced it personally, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

Lu Jiude still knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the imperial sister-in-law's trip to Yanziji this time is an extremely rare opportunity for you!" ”

Emperor Hongguang was immediately interested: "How do you say this?" ”

Lu Jiude knew that he had completely messed up the matter, and now if he wanted to save the situation, he had to make Emperor Hongguang happy: "Zhang Niangniang is in Beijing, and it will be difficult to do the matter of exterminating the Kou, but the extermination of the Kou is not only the only feasible national policy at the moment, but also the desire of the people!" ”

"Spending money to exterminate the Kou" is just a nice saying, but it can actually be called "joint capture to destroy the Kou" or "borrowing the capture to destroy the Kou".

As for what is "desired by the people", it is better to say "what the government wants"; whether it is Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying, Gao Hongtu, or Lu Daqi, everyone thinks that "exterminating the people with money" seems to be the only feasible way to save the crisis.

Han Zanzhou felt that Lu Jiude's statement was a little inappropriate, Empress Zhang's words that had been living in Yanziji for a long time would definitely make the foreign court see the joke, and Emperor Hongguang also hesitated: "I had three chapters of the law with the imperial sister-in-law!" ”

Lu Jiude saw what Emperor Hongguang really wanted: "So Yi'an Niangniang's departure from Beijing is a God-given opportunity for Your Majesty, on the occasion of the country's survival, and there are two Song Dynasty lessons from the past, Your Majesty must not mistake the country and the country, you should seize this opportunity to negotiate peace with the prisoners, miss the current God-given opportunity, I am afraid that the country will be captured forever!" ”

Zhao Zhilong, who was on the side, also suddenly changed his words: "Your Majesty, it is indeed the only feasible national policy at the moment, because of Yi'an Niangniang, it is not good to send an envoy north to negotiate peace with the Qing State, and now we must seize this rare opportunity, if this matter is successful, Your Majesty will not only leave a name in history but also be able to consolidate the mountains and rivers forever!" ”

This really made Emperor Hongguang feel particularly useful, although he also felt that what mountains and rivers were eternal was all nonsense, but as long as Jianyu and the thieves fought to defeat both, the national fortunes of the small court in the southern capital should be similar to that of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Although this will definitely cause endless troubles, Emperor Hongguang feels that as long as his children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, as long as he can enjoy the glory and wealth of the son of heaven in Jiangnan for thirty or fifty years, then this life will not be in vain.

Now there is only one question left: "What about Empress Yi'an's move to Yanziji?" ”

Lu Jiude immediately pushed this matter to the foreign court: "Although this is an emperor's family matter, it is related to the country, and the courtiers should care about it, and Ma Shiying, these cabinet ministers, will not let Liu Yongxi mess around, and will definitely find a way to invite the imperial sister-in-law back!" What's more, the incident happened suddenly, Yi'an Niangniang also needs to calm down! ”

Emperor Hongguang felt that Lu Jiude was too right, Empress Yi'an should calm down, and the current established national policy is to "exterminate the prisoners", it is more beneficial for Empress Zhang to be absent from Nanjing, and as long as the major event of "destroying the prisoners with money" can be completed, Empress Zhang will naturally not be in trouble.

Zhang Yan on the royal boat has taken off the Nine Dragons and Four Phoenix Crowns with her face facing the sky, but she is still a mother with all kinds of charms in the world, Liu Yongxi only felt fascinated when she looked at such a moving Empress Zhang from the side.

Empress Zhang is also very happy, especially thinking of the scene of riding with Liu Yongxi in front of everyone today, Empress Zhang feels very happy.

The river is constantly beating on this imperial boat, and Empress Zhang can only occupy a large room in this imperial boat, which can be said to be very different from the special treatment she enjoys in the Chengyi Bo Mansion.

But Empress Zhang couldn't help but think of the days and nights when she crossed south with Liu Yongxi, and she felt more and more happy.

The two of them have always been together less and more away before, but at this moment, they can hear each other's voices, and Queen Zhang couldn't help but praise Liu Yongxi: "Fortunately, Xiaoxi is here today, otherwise I really don't know what to do!"

Liu Yongxi felt that Empress Zhang's performance was even better than he imagined: "Thanks to Sister Yan's decision, otherwise the next time I want to go out of Beijing, I won't know that it is the Year of the Monkey, and the situation will be different at that time!"

Now there is chaos in the court, and the courtiers feel that Emperor Hongguang is too disappointing, and even a hero like Guo Weijing took the initiative to escort Empress Zhang out of the city, so you can imagine that the people are back, but the farther Emperor Hongguang ascends the throne, the stronger his control over Nanjing, and if he misses today's opportunity, I am afraid that there will be no such opportunity in the future.

Just hearing Liu Yongxi say this, Queen Zhang couldn't help laughing: "It's all a family, is it necessary to praise it like this?" Besides, Xiao Xi dared to make up my mind to go out of the city before I dared to do so, by the way, what was the special surprise at Li Xiangjun's congratulatory banquet today? ”

Liu Yongxi felt that after such a toss, the strength of the bayberry wine was almost over, and fortunately, he drank a few glasses of bayberry wine soaked by Zhu Meier herself, so that Liu Yongxi overturned Lu Jiude, the eunuch with a pen, with the strength of the wine today.

He recalled the scene at that time and couldn't help laughing: "I only drank two or three glasses of bayberry wine in total, and something happened, and King Fu's hand is a little yin!"

Both Liu Yongxi and Empress Zhang were caught off guard by King Fu's sudden attack, and King Fu's edict was not even directly executed by Lu Jiude through the cabinet and the six ministries, so Liu Yongxi said that it was "the middle decree was chaotic", if it wasn't for Liu Yongxi's drunken punch to kill the master, I'm afraid today's situation would not be good.

And Empress Zhang still asked about the specific details of this banquet: "Xiao Xi hasn't said anything other than Zhu Meier and Li Xiangjun!"

Liu Yongxi also said honestly: "In addition to Zhu Meier and Li Xiangjun, I also saw the famous Bian Yunjiao on the Qinhuai River, well, now it has been renamed Bian Yujing, it's a pity!"

Empress Zhang didn't understand why Liu Yongxi suddenly said the word "pity", he had obviously seen Bian Yujing: "Didn't you have time to see Bian Yujing's painting book?" ”

Liu Yongxi shook his head and said, "I mean Bian Yujing is a pity, it's not a shame to meet someone!"

Empress Zhang didn't have any interest in Bian Yujing's life experience, but just said: "It's still Sister Yan's fate to meet Xiaoxi, by the way, Sister Yan has already thought about it, don't rush to Zhejiang now, stay in Yanziji for a few more days, and it's not too late to leave after you finish that matter!"
