King Lu's chamberlain left the palace gate, did not dare to slack off, got on the horse and went straight to the river.

When he arrived at the riverside, King Lu's inner servant saw that the camp at the Qiantang River port was very lively. He didn't dare to rush into the camp, so he stopped a soldier outside and asked, "What is the camp busy with?" ”

Xiao Bing smiled brightly, he hadn't eaten so full for a long time, and replied loudly: "Lord Yu, it's Lord Gu from Hangzhou on the other side, who has sent us a lot of food, we don't have to starve anymore, hahahaha"

How happy the little soldier laughed, how scared the inner servant was, he turned around and left, turning over and getting on the horse for fear of slowing down.

Because of the importance of the matter, the palace quarreled until dusk and did not disperse, and the chamberlain rolled off his horse and galloped to the palace.

When the ministers saw his embarrassed appearance, they all looked sideways and stopped arguing.

The little chamberlain prostrated on the ground and howled: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good! In the big camp by the Qiantang River, they were receiving grain from Hangzhou, and the villain saw with his own eyes that the entire river was full of small boats carrying grain. ”

When Qian Sule heard this, his face was as pale as earth and speechless, he said in his heart Sun Jiaji really did such a thing, why didn't he discuss it with me?

Fang Guoan was even more an arrow, rushed to his side, and scolded: "What else do you have to say?" ”

Qian Sule put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "The pure person is self-purifying, I, Qian Sule, have never done anything to betray the Lord and seek glory, and I have a clear conscience!" ”

Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, looked frightened, and said angrily: "You still dare to try to quibble, if it weren't for the Duke of Yueguo, I and all Aiqing would have been betrayed by you!" Come on, take it for me! ”

Two sword-wielding guards entered the hall, set up Qian Sule, and went to the heavenly prison.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how is this good?" After dealing with Qian Sule, the anger on Zhu Yihai's face gradually receded, turning into panic.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, there are still a lot of soldiers and horses in Shaoxing City, enough to defend the city. Just take advantage of this opportunity to exterminate Hou Xuanyan and recover Hangzhou. When the time comes, hundreds of thousands of people will be on the river, so why is it difficult to return to each other? Although Fang Guoan was defeated by the Qing soldiers, he was not convinced by Hou Xuanyan's soldiers and horses. In his opinion, the Qing soldiers are brave and invincible, but Hou Xuanyan has no strong soldiers in his hands. He was even faintly excited, as long as he won this time, he could wash away the shame of defeat.

Zhu Yihai was greatly relieved when he saw what he said impassionedly, and hurriedly sealed the official and made a wish: "I have the Duke of Yueguo, sit back and relax." ”

Zhu Dadian on the side shook his head secretly, this pair of superb monarchs and ministers, do you still think you are reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms? The situation in front of them was obviously extremely dangerous, and they even remembered how they counterattacked Longwu after the victory.

As the leader of the anti-Qing rebel alliance, Qian Sule was highly respected and had a high popularity in Zhejiang. There were many ministers in the Shaoxing court, all of whom were his close friends, especially Zheng Zunqian, the uncle of Yixing.

Zheng Zunqian is quite heroic, he has a friend named Xu Du, and he is a friend of life and death. Xu Du led a riot to kill corrupt officials in eastern Zhejiang, where the people were strong. Zheng Zunqian was ready to respond to his friend in his hometown, but who knew that he was locked up at home by his father and failed to achieve it.

Later, Xu was persuaded by Chen Zilong to be appeased as an official, but who knew that the government had treacherously killed him. At this time, Zheng Zunqian's father also went to Hangzhou to shave his hair and reduce the Qing Dynasty, when Hangzhou was still in the hands of the Qing soldiers.

At this time, Zheng Zunqian's anger was completely ignited, and he contacted a group of friends to put up a banner and recruit thousands of rebels. Kill Shaoxing and kill all the officials arranged by the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Shaoxing.

After the killing, Zheng Zunqian summoned the local gentry and asked them to provide food to resist the Qing. These people refused to take out the food, Zheng Zunqian scolded loudly, and threatened to drag them out and cut them if they didn't have food. At this time, his father asked for a high-ranking official from the master of the Manchu Dynasty, but when he came back, he saw such a scene.

Zheng Zunqian's father, Zheng Zhiyin, knelt on the ground and begged his son to surrender with him to keep the Zheng family's wealth. Zheng Zunqian was unmoved, and cut off his robe with his father and continued to oppose the Qing Dynasty.

Today, I saw the incompetent Fang Guoan and the mediocre Zhu Yihai detaining their friend Qian Sule in prison. Zheng Zunqian returned to the mansion full of anger, gathered his subordinates, and secretly discussed.

He first sent a few of his subordinates to take different paths to the camp at the Qiantang River port to inform Sun Jiaji.

Sun Jiaji has always been ostracized, and he hates this small court, if it wasn't for Qian Sule to stop him, he would have rebelled a long time ago.

Now that he heard that Qian Sule was actually imprisoned, Sun Jiaji's anger could no longer be concealed, and he gathered soldiers and horses to go to Shaoxing City.

At this time, the people from Hangzhou came again, and their news was even better than his own, Gu Yanwu sent people to directly pick out that he wanted to join forces with him to exterminate the Lu Domain.

Sun Jiaji didn't think about it, and immediately agreed, and rescuing Qian Sule meant that he was the enemy of King Lu, and although the world was big, he could only defect to the Longwu court.

It wasn't until the mighty army crossed the Qiantang River that Sun Jiaji faintly felt that something was wrong. But it was too late, and no one could stop the army from Hangzhou after losing the Qiantang River moat.

The face of the general at the head was as heavy as water, expressionless, and the scars on his swarthy face had not faded.

Gu Yanwu smiled and introduced Sun Jiaji: "This is Jiangyin Yan Yingyuan, you must have heard of his name, right?" ”

Sun Jiaji immediately said: "It turned out to be General Yan, and he has heard of a great name for a long time. ”

Yan Yingyuan bowed slightly, returned a salute, and said, "Without further ado, let's go." ”

In Shaoxing City, Fang Guoan nervously arranged the forces to defend the city. Although he boasted about Haikou in the palace, his anger had subsided, and as soon as his mind calmed down, he still fell into fear.

Shaoxing's main force of soldiers and horses had long been buried by him under the city of Hangzhou, and without the Qiantang River, they had no danger to defend.

The overstretched troops were carefully arranged on the city walls of Shaoxing, and even the palace guards were requisitioned by him.

Finally, in the middle of the night, the army approached the city of Shaoxing.

The torches lit by the army outside the city illuminated the outside of Shaoxing as bright as day. Looking at the flames, it seemed that the whole of Shaoxing was trembling.

Yan Yingyuan waved his hand, and a young general came out of the crowd and shouted at the top of his voice: "The one who opened the city has merit!" Those who disarm are exonerated! ”

Fang Guoan was so angry that he ordered the soldiers to release their arrows, and the soldiers looked at the army stretching under the city, and they hesitated one by one.

Fang Guoan grabbed a bow and arrow, bent the bow and shot the arrow, but was easily picked away by the young general with a spear.

"Which thief hurts someone with an arrow? On the day the city is broken, I will kill you first and sacrifice the flag! ”

....

At the same time, in Shaoxing City, Zheng Zunqian led hundreds of his subordinates to wash the prison in blood and rescued Qian Sule.

Qian Sule looked sad and asked, "Lu Gong (Zheng Zunqian), you shouldn't be so reckless, what should you do next?" ”

Zheng Zunqian took the Pu knife in his hand and said, "What are you afraid of, open the city gate and welcome Wang Shi into the city!" ”
