Chapter 200: First Meeting (Second Shift, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
When the ship passed through Yangzhou, although he was just standing on the boat, Wang Shiyuan could still feel the prosperity here, he was no stranger to this city, when he left the Wang family eight years ago, he had come here, but at that time, Yangzhou had just gone through ten days of slaughter, but the vitality had not recovered, dozens of miles outside the city, the traces left by the Qing Dynasty slaughter could be seen everywhere, and the white bones could be seen everywhere in the abandoned houses, and even the well was full of white bones.
Now that he has come to Yangzhou again, the traces of yesterday's military disaster have disappeared invisibly, and he can only feel the prosperity of the city as far as he can see, but the prosperity of this world always makes him a little nostalgic.
"Why did you give birth to the emperor's family......"
Again, Wang Shiyuan's mind came up with his father's words back then, although he had never heard this sentence, but this sentence, for so many years, would always appear in his mind from time to time, reminding him of what all the encounters were for.
If it weren't for the surname Zhu, how could it be?
Thinking of these years of displacement, Wang Shiyuan's heart couldn't help but feel sad, and now, when he arrived in Yangzhou and Jiangbei, what will be his fate in the future?
In the Zheng family's rest garden, after getting up in the morning, as in the past, Wang Shiyuan was sullen and unhappy, sighing for a long time, although the scenery of the rest garden was beautiful, but he had no intention of appreciating it, and the more and more sad face between the eyebrows naturally couldn't hide his wife's eyes.
"Husband, why have you been so unthinking and not wanting to eat all day since you left Yuyao?"
Wang Hushi stared at him in a daze, and asked with some puzzlement.
Looking at the wife in front of him, Wang Shiyuan opened his mouth and didn't speak, how to say it? Did he tell her who he really was? Let her be like herself, worrying about her life all day long.
"It's not because of the cowardice of the hometown, husband, if it's because of your family, let's go back to Yuyao."
Because he knew that his husband was kicked out of the house by his "family", Wang Hu only thought that he was unwilling to face his family, so he said with relief.
"As long as you and the child are there, even if this life is hard, isn't it a lifetime?"
"I ......"
Facing his wife's words, he opened his mouth, and Wang Shiyuan sighed.
"If you can do this, it is also the wish of the husband!"
What a wealth and glory, but it's just a passing moment!
More than ten years of displacement have already made Wang Shiyuan see through many things, for him, the only thought is to be able to spend his life with his wife and children peacefully, but who wants him to spend his life like this?
Either way, no matter what......
Looking at his wife beside him, thinking about his son who was not yet in infancy, suddenly, Wang Shiyuan seemed to have made up his mind, and after making some more advice to Wang Hu, he walked towards the outside of the garden.
Perhaps, it's time to put an end to all this!
Although Wang Shiyuan, as a "guest", could not leave the closed garden, but in the closed garden, he was still free, he could walk freely in the closed garden, and turned a few corners between the corridors in the garden, in the pavilion outside Li Decai's residence, Wang Shiyuan unexpectedly saw Li Decai standing in the pavilion, standing in front of a person, the person was sitting there, and the two seemed to be talking about something.
Could it be that this person is Li Decai's superior?
That's it!
As long as I can save my wife and children, I don't want this life, so what's the matter?
After making a decision in his heart, Wang Shiyuan walked straight towards the pavilion. Just as he was about to approach the pavilion, his eyes fell on the face of the person in the pavilion, and the whole person couldn't help but be shocked. On the contrary, he blurted out in surprise.
"Brother Huang!"
Sitting in the middle of the pavilion was a young man who looked no more than twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a tall posture that showed the masculinity of a man. Although he was only wearing a long shirt in green clothes, he couldn't hide a temperament that was not angry and arrogant.
And for this temperament, Wang Shiyuan can be said to be extremely familiar, more than ten years ago, when he was a teenager, he saw this temperament in his father's body, but it was stronger in his father. And what really surprised him was that the person in front of him was actually very similar to the three emperor brothers.
Zhu Mingzhong, who was listening to Li Decai's report, saw that someone was coming, and when he raised his eyes to look at the person who came, he looked at this young man who seemed to be a few years older than him, and his eyes became a little complicated.
And Li Decai, who was standing on the side, had a wave in his heart that had never been before, and the two words in Wang Shiyuan's mouth also came to his ears.
Brother Huang!
In Li Decai's opinion, what he shouted was not "Brother Huang", but the "emperor", and then carefully looked at the eyebrows of the two, and he was shocked to find that the appearance of the two seemed to be a little imaginative.
In an instant, Li Decai's heart almost jumped to his throat, and the violently beating heart seemed to remind him that he had inadvertently discovered a secret.
There's a good chance that this secret is going to be lost in the head!
When a cold sweat broke out on his back, Li Decai also noticed that Jing Liu's eyes had become a little complicated.
How not complicated!
After more than ten years apart, how can I not feel complicated when I see my family again?
Zhu Mingzhong, Ming Zhong, Ming Zhong...... No wonder the scripture will be named after this, this is to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, who can compare with it?
Obviously, Li Decai misunderstood Zhu Mingzhong's thoughts, and the reason why his gaze was complicated was because there was a son of Chongzhen standing alive in front of him, and there was also his daughter in Qinghe.
And Wang Shiyuan, who was standing there like a chicken at this time, had tears that had involuntarily slipped down, and Li Decai on the side even secretly shouted,
"It's over, it's over, I know this secret, but how can I ...... it?"
"You step back first!"
Facing Wang Shiyuan, who was full of tears, Zhu Mingzhong's brows were furrowed, and he stretched out his hand to signal Li Decai to retreat, and Li Decai, whose back was already covered with cold sweat, hurriedly retreated as if he had been amnesty.
Seeing that there was no one in this pavilion, Wang Shiyuan, who was full of tears, hurriedly said.
"Brother Huang, I, I'm ......"
His brows were slightly locked, Zhu Mingzhong looked at him with some doubts, what did he call me?
"This official is Zhu Mingzhong, the envoy of Jianghuai Economic Strategy!"
Who is he?
"As for you, whether you are the fifth son of the Lie Emperor is unknown, but you can rest assured, as long as there is this official, you will never allow others to hurt you in the slightest, and you can rest assured that you will live in Jiangbei!"
"Brother Huang, it's me, I'm Huan'er, although you and I are not born from the same mother, but, but, in the past ten years, the younger brother has always thought of the ...... with the imperial brother back then."
The third emperor brother actually became Zhu Mingzhong and became the Jianghuai envoy of the Ming Dynasty? Originally, he was determined to die and wanted to save his family, but he couldn't believe all this, although he hadn't seen him for more than ten years, he still recognized the other party at a glance, and he believed that he didn't admit his mistake.
What did he say?
Zhu Cihuan's words made Zhu Mingzhong feel shocked.
What royal brother?
What does he mean?
Staring at Zhu Cihuan, who was so excited that he couldn't even help himself, Zhu Mingzhong's heart was full of doubts, what did he call me?
"Third Emperor Brother, the younger brother is the fifth little brother."
Again, Wang Shiyuan, who seemed a little excited, before today, he had never thought that he would be able to see his family again one day, and now, his family is not only standing in front of him alive, but even a general, leading hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
"Little Five?"
frowned, looking at the guy in front of him, Zhu Mingzhong's heart swelled with doubts, if he wasn't from the 21st century, maybe he would really believe him, but Zhu Mingzhong clearly knew his identity.
"Zhu is not the Third Emperor Brother in your mouth!"
Zhu Mingzhong resolutely refused, in his opinion, he didn't need to pretend to be the so-called "Three Emperor Brothers" at all, and even this so-called "Three Emperor Brothers" could be said to be harmful and useless to him.
"Brother Sanhuang, you ......"
Looking at Zhu Mingzhong, who rejected him, Wang Shiyuan's eyes were full of puzzlement, why was he unwilling to admit himself?
"Zhu's name is Mingzhong, and the word is benevolent!"
Again, Zhu Mingzhong emphasized his identity, which made him even regret a little, regretting coming to see this Wang Shiyuan, not to mention whether he was a real descendant of Chongzhen, but one thing is for sure, if today's words are spread, it is very likely to have an unknown impact on him, and even the trust between Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Chenggong, which should have eased but is weak, may also fall short.
and Zhang Huangyan......
didn't have time to think about it, Zhu Mingzhong said coldly.
"Because your identity is unknown, but don't worry, whether you are my Ming prince or the people, as long as you are here, the official will never harm you, but as for the rest, please mention it again!"
In the face of Zhu Mingzhong's denial, Wang Shiyuan, who was still a little puzzled, thought of the current situation in the world, and seemed to understand something, now there is still an emperor in the Ming Dynasty, if the third emperor brother recognizes his identity, how should Yongli deal with himself at that time? At that time, could it be that the Ming Dynasty was like back then, constantly attacking each other, and finally let the Qing capture take advantage of the fisherman's benefits?
After thinking about this, Wang Shiyuan even regretted a little, regretting why he didn't have a city government, and actually revealed the identity of the "Three Emperor Brothers" in front of outsiders.
"The junior brother knows, no, I know, please rest assured that the general will never mention this matter again from now on."
Looking at Wang Shiyuan's submissive appearance, Zhu Mingzhong, who knew that more than ten years of civil displacement had completely changed the person in front of him, just sighed slightly in his heart, and then stared at him and asked.
"Do you have any identity-related credentials?"
"The Emperor...... No, General Zhu, in the next, since the Jiashen Year Jingshi was caught by the thief, he has been in exile for many years, what evidence is there......"
Indeed, in that situation back then, how could there be any credentials.
His answer made Zhu Mingzhong nod, and then commanded
"In the future, you will live in this closed garden, you can rest assured, as long as Zhu is here, no one will hurt you, I heard that you have a child...... Well, that's fine, just live your life in peace. ”
"The Emperor...... General Zhu, that person ...... just now"
Seeing that the imperial brother was leaving, Wang Shiyuan hurriedly reminded him.
"You don't have to worry about him, you just have to live your life......"
