Zhu Youzhen originally had no appetite, but he still passed the meal, and just rested for a while, "Yi Xian, now there is a shortage of silver everywhere, lunch, lunch is simpler, let's go!" ”

"Your Majesty ......" Zhang Yixian wanted to persuade a few more words, but seeing that Zhu Youzhen was thinking about something, he shook his head slightly, sighed secretly, and went to the imperial dining room.

After lunch, Zhu Youzhen did not rest, but continued to face endless movements, as well as endless annoyance, unconsciously, an afternoon passed, Zhang Yixian saw that it was getting late, so he asked if he wanted to pass the meal.

Zhu Youzhen saw that there were not many more recitals, so he shook his head, "Wait a minute, read these recitals first, and then have some dinner with peace of mind!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty," Zhang Yixian's body was arched like a prawn, "the servants sent someone to the imperial dining room to send an order, and asked them to prepare a sumptuous dinner......"

"No," Zhu Youzhen didn't look up, his eyes continued to stare at the music in front of him, "Don't waste it, just like lunch...... No, if you have less, it's just twenty dishes, and I can eat it with peace of mind! ”

"Slaves obey!" Zhang Yixian bowed, slowly exited the warm pavilion, explained a few words to the little eunuchs, and returned quietly.

When Zhu Youzhen had almost read the chapter, Zhang Yixian had just ordered dinner, Zhu Youzhen clipped a piece of bear's paw, but he caught a glimpse of Zhang Yixian standing behind him with a bow, so he put down the silver chopsticks and said: "Yixian, you have been waiting for a day, go back early to rest!" ”

"The slave is not tired, the slave is just serving tea on the side, and the emperor reviews the chapter, that is the hard work......"

"These cantatas, hey......" Zhu Youzhen sighed, "These courtiers, why don't they weigh me?" A little trivial thing, just give me a long fold, I really don't know what the use of raising them......"

"The Emperor's ......"

Zhu Youzhen waved his hand, "Yi Xian, go down, I'm tired for a day, have a good rest tonight!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After Zhang Yixian stepped back, he secretly called a few little eunuchs, "You have to serve the emperor well, if you brush the emperor's will, tomorrow our family will pick your skin ......"

"The little ones don't dare ......"

Zhu Youzhen had dinner, finished freshening up, and said that he was going out for a walk, and several little eunuchs followed closely.

Out of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youzhen is not to the direction of the harem, but from the Qianqing Gate through, walk to the direction of the court, walk only one mile, on the left is a painted gatehouse - Huiyin Gate.

Zhu Youzhen subconsciously stopped, glanced at the gatehouse, and didn't speak, but he stepped over the Huiyin Gate, and the little eunuchs followed behind him, and they didn't dare to speak.

After entering the Ciqing Gate, the little eunuchs naturally knew it, so one of them took two steps, approached Zhu Youzhen, and whispered: "Your Majesty, it's already dark, and the palace doors must be closed, do you want the slaves and maids to go to the Miaoqin Palace and knock on the door?" ”

Zhu Youzhen stopped, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's okay, I heard that the King of Shu was forced to commit suicide by throwing himself into a well today, and I was upset, so I went to Queen Yi'an to sit down and listen to what she had to say!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The little eunuch bowed, took a few steps, and disappeared into the night.

When Zhu Youzhen came to the palace of Qinqin, the palace gate was hidden, and the little eunuch had already answered outside the palace gate, pushing open the palace gate, Zhang Yan shrank in the shadow of the palace wall, "Your Majesty ......"

The palace maid of the Miaoqin Palace quickly stepped forward, covered the palace door, and inserted the hidden latch.

Zhu Youzhen picked up Zhang Yan's little hand and played with it gently, "Yan'er, I'm not in a good mood today, so come here to sit down!" ”

"The emperor comes into the house and says!" Zhang Yan didn't pull out her hand, so she had to walk side by side with Zhu Youzhen and introduce Zhu Youzhen into the lobby.

Zhu Youzhen let go of Zhang Yan's hand, sat down in the main seat, waited for Xiao Ru to serve tea, and said: "Yan'er, I have always been diligent in government, and I have personally seen every piece of music, and I dare not have the slightest fatigue, but state affairs are becoming more and more arduous......"

"Your Majesty, don't worry," Zhang Yan sat down opposite Zhu Youzhen, looking forward to a pair of beautiful and spiritual eyes, "What happened?" ”

"The king of Shu is dead, and Chengdu is broken by the Liukou......"

"Chengdu?" Zhang Yan frowned lightly, and said in a half-loud voice: "Wasn't Liukou driven to Huguang?" Why did there be a rogue in Sichuan? ”

"Yes, Yang Sichang also said the same thing to me, but Chengdu was breached, but it is a fact......"

"Maybe it's some rogues who have slipped through the net," Zhang Yan stroked her sideburns with her hand, suppressing the panic in her heart, "The emperor doesn't have to worry too much, the rogue is the rogue, there are several guards and horses in Chengdu, there is no need to transfer troops, maybe the rogue himself will run away......"

"I'm afraid that Chengdu's soldiers and horses will not be of great use, otherwise it will be impossible for the rogue to break the Chengdu ......"

Zhang Yan said lightly: "How did the emperor deal with it?" ”

"I asked Yang Sichang to immediately transfer troops to Chengdu to encircle and suppress this group of rogues," Zhu Youzhen said viciously: "Li Zicheng forced to kill the king of Shu, and I want to put him to death......

"Your Majesty, by all means," Zhang Yan said hurriedly: "The army of the imperial court is encircling and suppressing the Liukou in Huguang, once the army is mobilized, there will be a gap, which is easy for the Liukou in Huguang to escape, and besides, even if they go to Sichuan, the Liukou in Chengdu may have run away long ago!" ”

"This ......" Zhu Youzhen also realized that he was too excited at the time, but he was the emperor, since Chrysostom was opened, how could he take it back? Yang Sichang is afraid that he has already transferred troops at this time......"

Zhang Yan also felt that it was difficult, hesitated for a moment, and said: "The emperor can no longer put pressure on Yang Sichang, let him clean up the main force of the rogues in Huguang first, and then say, in two days, the emperor can summon Yang Sichang and ask him to organize the army in Chengdu and protect himself first...... By the way, I have to send someone to Sichuan to find out, where this stream of rogues comes from and where it will go......"

Zhu Youzhen nodded, "Yan'er is right, I'm too anxious!" ”

Zhang Yanyan smiled and said softly: "The emperor values love and righteousness, and when he heard that the king of Shu was killed, he was angry for a while, and it was inevitable that he would ......."

Zhu Youzhen was scratched by Zhang Yan to the heart, and he smiled bitterly, "Yan'er, are you saying that I am particularly useless, even the prince can't keep ......?"

"It's not the emperor's fault," Zhang Yan knew that Zhu Youzhen felt uncomfortable, the key was that he couldn't explain to the courtiers, and said hurriedly: "The emperor has every opportunity, he is a good emperor who is diligent in government, and the key to Chengdu's affairs lies in the local civil and military. ”

Inspector Zhu You sighed and said, "Yan'er, you say, why are there so many rogues in the world, and they are endlessly killed?" ”

Zhang Yan said: "That's because of the famine, and the people have no food to eat......

Zhu Youzhen's eyes were distracted, and he muttered: "The Tartars in Liaodong do not stop, and there are many rogues in the Ming Dynasty...... Yan'er, is this the appearance of a dead country? ”

"Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense," Zhang Yan hurriedly covered Li Zicheng's mouth with her little hand, "Your Majesty, the difficulties are temporary, as long as you get through this time...... I heard that the Liukou was compressed by Yang Sichang in the area of Huguang and Henan, as long as the Liukou lost the opportunity to escape, sooner or later they would be exterminated by the army of the imperial court......"

Li Zicheng gently held Zhang Yan's tender hand, pulled it along the way, and let Zhang Yan sit on his lap, "Yan'er, you say, can the imperial court get through this difficulty?" ”

"Surely," Zhang Yan knew that Zhu Youzhen was depressed, and he didn't dare to struggle for a while, "The emperor is not a faint monarch, he has always been diligent in political affairs, and Daming will definitely not ...... It's going to be fine, the emperor can rest assured ......"

Zhu Youzhen saw that Zhang Yan's face did not change and sat on his lap, nor did he struggle, so he wrapped his arms around her waist, "Yan'er, I have finished reviewing today's recital, I don't want to go back tonight, there is space in the Qianqing Palace......"

"Then the emperor can go to the queen's Kunning Palace...... Ah...... The Emperor ......"

Zhu Youzhen hugged Zhang Yan tightly in his arms, and said close to her ear: "Yan'er, I want to stay in the Miaoqin Palace tonight!" ”

"If the emperor is ...... If you like it...... The body of the concubine ......"

"I can't tell why I like to come to Yan'er's Qingong Palace!"

"The emperor must not miss the major military affairs because of his concubine...... The concubine's sin is unforgivable......"

"No, every time I come to the Qingong Palace, my mood is much better, it seems that my whole body is full of strength, and after I go back, I am even in a good mood to review the chapters......

"Hee-hee...... The emperor will make the concubine happy......"

"By Yan'er's side, I'm also very happy!"

He avoided Yang Sichang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the cabinet, and directly issued a holy decree with a central decree: Fu Zonglong was appointed as the governor of Sichuan, and he was fully responsible for the military and political affairs of Sichuan, and ordered Shao Jiechun to be the supervisor of the army, and Luo Shangwen to be the chief soldier, and immediately rushed to Sichuan to fight the thieves.

Hong Chengchou heard that Liukou had broken Chengdu, and immediately took the general soldier Cao Bianjiao and went south with 30,000 elites, all the way, non-stop.

He entered the Shu Road along the Dasan Pass, and then went south along the Jialing River, but when he arrived at Fengxian, he heard that the thieves had gone to Hanzhong Mansion, so he hurriedly left the east of the Jialing River, cut into Baoshui, and then went south to Hanzhong along Baoshui.

When the army arrived in Baocheng, the front rangers reported: the thieves have taken Hanzhong Mansion, and Zhu Changhao, the king of Rui who was in Hanzhong, happened to worship Buddha in the temple, he pretended to be a monk and wanted to escape, but was caught by the thieves and cut into two, and the Ruiwang Mansion was also copied......

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, Rui Wang Zhu Changhao is not only the prince, the highest status in the clan, but also the uncle of the current emperor, Zhu Changhao was killed, not only the big and small officials of Hanzhong Mansion have to be buried together, but even he, the trilateral governor who is responsible for reinforcements, I am afraid that he will not be able to get rid of it......

He looked helplessly at Cao Bianjiao beside him, and Cao Bianjiao also smiled bitterly, "Lord Overseer, for the sake of today, only by catching the thief, escorting him to Beijing, and letting the emperor dispose of it, we may be able to exonerate ourselves......"

Hong Chengchou suddenly understood, "Yes, immediately rush to Hanzhong Mansion, take advantage of the thieves to escape, and immediately besiege the city!" ”

When Cao Bianjiao heard that he was going to fight the thieves, his blood immediately boiled, "Lord Overseer......"

"Without further ado, change Jiao, you take the people of the headquarters and rush to Hanzhong Mansion immediately, don't let the thieves escape, the governor will arrive later," Hong Chengchou's eyes almost spewed fire, "Change Jiao, whether you and I can save our heads depends on whether you can stop the thieves!" ”

"Yes, Lord Overseer!" Cao Bianjiao said goodbye to Hong Chengchou and waved his hand, "Sons, hurry, rush to Hanzhong Mansion immediately!" ”
