Seeing this, the Ming military department immediately understood, and he hurriedly asked the soldiers standing guard to prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstones to write a letter in reply.

Then the Ming Tong political envoy experienced the meeting with Ming Yizong in the Wenhua Palace, he stepped forward and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have the urgent military situation of the border pass here, please take a look at it!" After speaking, the eunuch of the Ming Division: Wang Chengen, he took the fold and handed it to Ming Yizong to watch.

He originally thought it was a twist and turn for the border to urge food and soldiers? I didn't pay much attention to it, so I opened it casually and looked at it.,The content in front is OK.,But the more you look down at the back, the more you feel wrong! I saw Ming Yizong put together a piece of music, slammed it heavily on the pressing table, and roared: "Not long ago, Xi'an Mansion, Hanzhong Mansion and other places just fell!" Now Qingyang Mansion, Pingliang Mansion, Ningxia Qiwei, Yan'an Mansion and even Yulinwei in the border town have also fallen, what is this Li thief's ability? Is it necessary to separate Shaanxi and declare the political department to fail? ”

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor Long Yan was furious, he was so frightened that the Ming Tong Political Secretary hurriedly fell to the ground, and the Ming Si Rite Supervisor Bingbi Eunuch on the side had to persuade him, "Ouch! Your Majesty is angry! This victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, isn't the Shaanxi Xingdu Division still in our hands at the moment? Can they unite with Xining Wei to send troops to encircle and suppress the Liukou, as for the Yarkand Khanate? The old slave thought that he would not easily invade Ganzhou Wuwei for a while. ”

But Ming Yizong didn't dare to mobilize troops and horses easily, but announced the surrender of soldiers and horses from all walks of life to see who could subdue Li Thief? He also ordered Sichuan Chengxuan Zhengsi and Shanxi Chengxuan Zhengsi to strictly guard against the invasion of the Liukou.

At this time, the secretary of the Ming military department who prepared the letter also walked into the hall and reported the matter of the Zuojia army endangering the Yuanzhou Mansion to Ming Yizong, and after learning the news, Ming Yizong was furious and immediately ordered to transfer back to the Ming Ping thief general, and changed it to recruit local Jiangyou soldiers to guard the Yuanzhou Mansion, and let the herald ride a fast horse to carry these two decrees to convey.

Ming Yizong, who had handled political affairs well, walked out of the palace gate and walked on the edge of the moat of the imperial city, and the accompanying eunuch Ming Si Rite Supervisor Bingbi was afraid that His Majesty the Emperor would catch a cold! I took it (tiger skin fur) to put it on Ming Yizong, and unconsciously came to the vicinity of Wenyuan Pavilion during the walk, and saw Princess Ming Kunxing: Zhu Yujiao, and Ming Tai'an County Lord: Zhu Youlan, the two walked over together and saluted in unison, "See Your Majesty, see Father." ”

At this time, Ming Yizong asked, "The county lord of Tai'an, can he still live in this palace?" Zhu Youlan, who was asked, hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the courtiers live very well, but...?" "What do you dare not say when you see her? Ming Yizong looked at Princess Ming Kunxing next to him and asked, "Jiao'er, have you bullied the county lord of Tai'an?" ”

I saw that Princess Mingkunxing deliberately coquettishly and cutely said, "How can there be!" The father and emperor wronged the sons, but in fact, the county lord's sister was homesick. Hearing this, Ming Yizong seemed to understand a little, he had been busy with the government during this time, and before he had time to deal with this matter, he said to the Ming Si Rite Supervisor and the Eunuch Bingbi beside him: "Quickly go and pass on the pedestrian Si Xingren to come and send the Tai'an County Lord to Shandong Chengxuan Zheng Tai'an Prefecture, and let the new Tai'an Zhizhou allocate an army to protect the county lord." ”

But Zhu Youlan said, "Back to Your Majesty, although the courtiers are homesick, the courtiers are also homesick, and, and the courtiers..." Looking at her spitting out, the eunuch of Mingsi, who was good at observing words and feelings, immediately reacted and stepped forward and said, "Ouch! Long live the lord, His Royal Highness the Lord of Tai'an County is trying to find a husband's family? ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Youlan hurriedly lowered her head, blushing like an apple and not daring to squeak! Princess Ming Kunxing on the side said, "Father, the son also has to choose a husband's family!" ”

At this moment, Ming Yizong coughed twice, and said seriously: "Jiao'er, don't be presumptuous!" The county lord of Tai'an wants to find his husband's family, which is easy to do, and I will immediately issue a holy decree to recruit relatives. ”

However, Zhu Youlan whispered, "Don't bother Your Majesty, the courtiers already have a favorite person?" ”

Ming Yizong was a little curious when he heard this, so he asked, "I don't know if it's the son of a Jia merchant in the capital or an official eunuch family?" Zhu Youlan shook his head and said that it was not, and the eunuch of the Ming Si Rite and the Eunuch Bingbi deliberately asked, "But the son of the local magistrate in the foreign mansion?" Zhu Youlan still shook her head!

Suddenly, the people next to him were stumped, and everyone couldn't figure out who it was? Suddenly, Princess Mingkunxing remembered the life-saving benefactor she had mentioned? Seems to have a good impression of him? Then he said: "Could it be your savior, what is called Wu?" ”

At this time, the eunuch of the Ming Division, the eunuch Bingbi, seemed to promote this smoke, and said: "Dare to ask where is the prince in the mouth of His Royal Highness the county lord now?" As soon as the words fell, Princess Ming Kunxing suddenly remembered that the man seemed to be from Tongguanwei? He whispered to the eunuch of the Ming Division.

I saw that the eunuch of Mingsi, the eunuch of the ceremonial rite and the pen, seemed to be taken aback, and his face changed suddenly and said: "Tongguan Wei was broken by the rogue!" The old slave guessed that the son was afraid that he would be more than lucky? As soon as she heard this, Zhu Youlan hurriedly raised her head as if she had been fried, and asked, "What?" Tongguanwei is lost? So Wu Junzhen, will he? ”

Seeing the nervous appearance of His Royal Highness the County Lord, Ming Yizong comforted: "The County Lord doesn't have to worry! Now that I know his name, I will definitely send someone to find out his whereabouts, whether they are dead or alive, as for ... ”

The anxious Zhu Youlan hurriedly interrupted Ming Yizong's words and begged, "I beg Your Majesty to allow your courtiers to go to Shaanxi Chengxuan to find Gongzi Wu." In the face of this request, Ming Yizong readily agreed, and asked the pedestrian division to send people to protect His Royal Highness the county lord, and take the official road from Guangning Gate to Lugou Bridge to Shaanxi Chengxuan Political Division.

On the other side, Wu Junzhen and the three of them came to the territory of Yan'an Mansion, and after traveling for hundreds of miles, they walked to the capital city of Fushi County, from a distance, the city gate looked particularly lively, and there were many people coming and going, but one thing was very strange that there was a group of people gathered by the city gate? Looking around, I don't know what I'm looking at?

Liu Ruilin, who was riding a horse in front, said: "I haven't been here for a long time!" There are still so many people, it seems that there is any new news today? Let's go up and have a look! The three of them rode quickly across the suspension bridge before dismounting and leading the rope forward, Ma Wei cautiously squeezed through the crowd and said, "Everyone, let me, let me!" ”

When he stood in front, Ma Wei watched the list carefully, and Wu Junzhen and Liu Ruilin also came to watch, only to see that it was written (on the 6th day of November in the year of Guiwei, Yan'an Mansion was changed to Tianbao Mansion by the decree of King Xinshun, and the new official system needs to be rescheduled) I saw the three words of King Xinshun! Ma Wei was very disgusted, and Liu Ruilin scolded angrily: "Bold, who posted this list here?" This is the territory of Yan'an Mansion in the Ming Dynasty, how can the list of rogues be posted? ”

As soon as these words came out, the people watching next to them hurriedly persuaded: "Hey! Don't talk nonsense about this young man! The defenders of Yan'an Mansion have long been defeated by the Shun army, and a small number of Ming troops have also surrendered to the Shun army, and now this is no longer the territory of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Hearing the people say this, the three of them immediately became angry, and an old man with a cane guessed that they should be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, so he stepped forward and whispered, "Shhhhhhh Don't make a fuss about today's affairs of the three young men, be careful of losing your head! And when he had said that, he led them out of the gates.

Wu Junzhen and the three of them were taken by the old man to a nearby tea shed to sit, only to see the old man pour three cups of tea and hand them to them, and the old man who was drinking said with a sad face, "Hey! To tell the truth, the old man is the master of Fushi County, this rogue surrendered as soon as he invaded the county seat, and the deputy general of Yan'an and the county Cheng fought against the rogue and died! And the manager doesn't know where to flee? Righteous men, the old man saw that your heart was towards the Ming Dynasty, so he calmly told me, I don't know what you think? ”

After drinking tea, the three of them looked at each other, thinking that Yan'an Mansion was lost, so Yulinwei would definitely not be protected? Only by fleeing eastward, Shanxi Cheng announced the political secretary, and the Ming army resisted the Liukou in order to protect himself!

Then Wu Junzhen took the lead to say goodbye to the old man and began to continue to walk east through Yanchang County, and then took a boat at the dock by the Yellow River to prepare to cross the river.

Among them, Ma Wei's heart is thinking; Li thief, don't be too arrogant, I'll fight back one day! Liu Ruilin, who was in front, saw the two of them looking into the distance, so he persuaded and said, "Hey! It's almost gone, and the ship is about to anchor. So the three of them boarded the boat and set sail across the Yellow River....

The time soon came to the 1st of December, the herald who came from the capital on a fast horse and the Ming priest and eunuch Fang Zhenghua, who carried the imperial decree, came to the Yuanzhou Mansion. ”

When the two heard the holy decree, they hurriedly walked out and knelt down to listen to the decree: "Fengtian carriers, the emperor edicts; Because the thieves led the troops to invade Jiangxi, Cheng announced the political division, and the general of the thieves led the troops to suppress the thieves, I was very relieved! However, considering that there are too many soldiers and horses, I am afraid that the materials will not be enough, and it is not wrong to allow the Ping thief to transfer the soldiers and horses to Ji'an Mansion! Chin this. ”

After reading it out, General Ming Ping Thief stepped forward to take the holy decree and thanked him and turned to leave, confirming that after he left, the Ming Si Rite Eunuch took out another holy decree and handed it to the prefect of Ming Yuan Prefecture, and said, "Lord Prefect, this is what Your Majesty ordered to hand over to you personally." After speaking, the prefect of Ming Yuanzhou immediately sent the Ming priest and eunuch back to Beijing to restore the order.

And he himself only understood His Majesty's intention after opening the holy decree, the prefect of Ming Yuan Prefecture understood His Majesty's intentions, it turned out that he wanted him to recruit local Jiangyou soldiers and horses to resist the thief army, and he thought for a while that instead of using the burning and looting Zuojia army, it was better to recruit local soldiers and horses.

When the King of the West learned of this, he took advantage of the fact that the Ming army was changing troops, and took the opportunity to raid the unsuspecting Ji'an Mansion! One company captured Jishui County, Yongxin County, Anfu County, Taihe County and other places! Local officials were also set up to appease the people, preparing to send troops to besiege and recapture Yuanzhou Mansion again.

When the Zuojia army arrived at Ji'an Mansion, they saw the black tiger flag hanging high above the city tower, which made the general Mingping thief very angry, but he couldn't force a counterattack! can only eat a dumb loss and honestly withdraw troops and pay food.
