Chapter 568. Fright Night

In later generations, there was a popular GIF on the Internet, in a Hong Kong movie, several victims angrily asked: "Can you do whatever you want if you have money?" ”

Then the boss nodded his head in agreement and said, "I'm sorry! If you have money, you can do whatever you want!"

This will not work in the future! Now, Lu Zhong is convinced! Just look at him himself, he used to be a little minion when he didn't have money, doing the hardest and most dangerous work, even if no one in his relatives took him seriously, but now, he easily climbed to the brocade clothes! Jingshi once needed him to nod his head and look up at the nobles who were waiting, but now he has to nod his head and turn around and call him Lu Ye! Even the eldest master of the family is not as good as him to speak.

All of this was brought about by the influx of silver!

There is also this Jinyiwei, as the factory guards become more and more lonely, there is already no Taizu back then, when the minister invited guests to dinner and drank what wine and what he said, the next day the emperor knew the supernatural powers, the loneliness of the factory guards in the final analysis is still Wenchen in power, these guys with ghosts in their hearts dare not let people stare at them behind their backs, and the funds of Jinyiwei are stuck, the intelligence department is the most silver-burning, no money, who will give you news?

But after Lu Zhong came up, his thousand households could even surpass the entire Jinyi Guard Army, and after a few years of operation, east to Qinchuan and south to Jiangnan, he weaved a spider-like web with a small thousand households, where there was a flood, where there were thieves, where there was a rebellion, he knew earlier than Chongzhen, who was trapped in the Dragon Court.

This is also the result of a large amount of silver being smashed.

Because of this, Lu Zhong was extremely in awe of the God of Wealth behind him, just like Liao Wang Jue, a big financier who could turn money! Because Lu Zhong knew that Mao Jue could spend such a large amount of silver to bring himself out, and it would be easy to use this silver to stone himself to death.

These days the war is going well, and there was a big victory on the first day, so that these optimistic rich children of Beijing have long forgotten their worries, and there is a war outside, and those princes and nobles are still looking for joy, although the door is plugged to death, so that the concubine who sings the song also keeps her voice to the lowest, barely showing a sense of awe.

Lu Zhong looked under his nose like this, to the outside is the leader of the clear stream, the representative of filial piety, good guy, no one is late enough to open, the old guy in his seventies and eighties is shirtless, wearing a Western Fan skin eye patch on his eyes, followed a group of concubines who are enough to be his granddaughter in the garden to touch and scream, tear a piece of clothing when caught, kiss it if it is caught, and finally simply snort in front of many wives and concubines in a concubine who has been stripped naked.

I really don't know what his people will think when they see this scene!

"Old Pickpocket!"

Seeing that his desire was surging, and he cursed secretly, Lu Zhong had to quickly open the skin bag on his waist, poured a sip of the cold wine made by Jinyiwei, and turned his attention back again.

Don't look at the dead walls of the city wall, every day is actually some good news, what is it, Lu Zhong is clear in his heart.

Maybe these wines worked, maybe the matter was piled up in his heart, and when he slanted his eyes down, Lu Zhong no longer had that drunkenness, but there was a kind of pity that everyone was drunk and I was awake.

"Crazy! Let's play! There aren't many days left anyway! ”

Even if he was mentally prepared, Lu Zhong himself didn't expect that this moment would come so quickly, and he had just finished ridiculing Wei's cabinet leader, and suddenly, on the eastern city wall, a dazzling firework rose into the sky, and the magnesium powder refined in "Heavenly Creation" burned violently and emitted a dazzling brilliance, and then, a muffled sound came faintly, even if this scene was as cold-blooded as Lu Zhong, he couldn't help but jump his eyelids.

The gates are broken!

Going downstairs too slowly, directly holding the rope, slid down the stupa of Jixiang Temple, which is quite famous in the inner city, below was a few brocade-clothed soldiers wearing huge black cloaks guarding the horses, looking at Lu Zhong's eyes grimly, they knelt down capably.

"Your Excellency!"

"The thief has broken the city! What should each hundred households do, let's know! Now go down right now! Li Jia, you hurry up and go straight to the south gate, Tang Wu, take the Flying Bear Team and the official straight to the Jiguo Mansion!"

"My lord, don't you need to be notified by the shopkeeper Cheng and Lord Tang?"

This question made Lu Zhong couldn't help but twitch slightly, Chongzhen played checks and balances, Mao Jue naturally couldn't let his family dominate, sent by Dongjiang, Tang Baihu, who he didn't know the name of, was specially set up by Mao Jue to monitor him, and his subordinates were their own faction, what kind of power they had, he Lu Zhong didn't know.

After just a moment's trance, Lu Zhong continued to hum with a gloomy face: "No need! Lord Tang has his own eyes and ears, do his best!"

"Honorable Order!"

With a neat answer, a few fast horses rushed out of the backyard of Jixiang Temple, although the horse's hooves were as rapid as a shower, but the landing was very light, hitting the bluestone slab of the Jingshi street with only a hint of muffled sound.

On the other hand, the twenty-person Flying Bear team has been on standby for a long time, these people are all strange people in the rivers and lakes who Lu Zhong has bought, capable people with their own abilities at hand, and pacesetters who have their own means of assassination and assassination, which can be regarded as Lu Zhong's trump card.

They didn't ride horses, and when they saw Lu Zhong coming out, the two of them nodded and directly put their heads on his shoulders, and a group of people rolled up violently in black cloaks, and the speed of galloping on Jingshi Avenue was not much faster than those fast horses.

In less than a few minutes, they had already arrived at the Jiguo Mansion, and only then did they reach the corner of the street, and these people scattered all at once, and on the trees on the edge of the mansion or in the dark alley, there were a few low screams, which team was responsible for keeping an eye on Mao Wenlong's colleague Jinyiwei, Lu Zhong didn't have any scruples, the two dragged his boots, and the leader of Jinyiwei climbed over the wall like a black cat.

In the mansion, there is a smell of tea, and these days Princess Changping has come over twice in three days, which makes the old man also obsessed with the tea ceremony.

The servant was waiting outside the door with a charcoal fire, while Chen Jiao was sitting carelessly in the courtyard knitting a sweater.

With two bird calls, she stood up casually, and immediately walked around to the courtyard, where Lu Zhong suddenly knelt down on one knee.

"Meet Madame!"

"The city is broken?"

"Mrs. Hui, the Guangqu door is broken!"

"I see! Give me a quarter of an hour, and you'll go and arrange the route!"

"Yes!"

Last time, Mao Wenlong had already expressed that he would not leave, and he wanted to live and die with Daming to understand this kindness, but Mao Jue would definitely not allow such a thing to happen, and now Chen Jiao took over the matter of taking Mao Wenlong, looking at her back, Lu Zhong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time showed a strong sense of appreciation.

is worthy of being a woman of Mao Jue, and she is also so light and capable!

The room was still filled with the fragrance of tea, and Chen Jiao and Mao Wenlong could vaguely hear the whispered conversation, about a few minutes later, Chen Jiao came out of the house again, waved away the servants who were waiting on the side, and immediately nodded to the dark place, walked out of the hiding place, and walked quickly to the house, Lu Zhong nodded again, and at the same time covered his nose urgently.

Inside the house, Mao Wenlong was leaning on a recliner, and before he knew it, he was already snoring softly, and the air was filled with the smell of dipterocarp and some unknown spices.

In addition to a few of Mao Wenlong's cronies and veterans, more than 100 people in the public mansion were destined to be abandoned, turned off the lights, woke up their son, Chen Jiao didn't bring anything, and hurriedly followed out the door.

But before the prepared carriage could set off, on the street, two fast horses came in a hurry, waving two white flags in their hands, and Lu Zhong's eyelids couldn't help but jump and hurriedly greeted him.

But in an instant, he turned his head in annoyance.

"Fuck these pigs!"

Changing the cumbersome long skirt, Chen Jiao also hurriedly greeted her when she saw this, and asked in amazement.

"What's wrong?"

"Humble and incompetent, Yongdingmen has fallen, and Li Guozhen, that idiot, has fallen to the thief!"

The Yongding Gate of the South Gate is the only place for the army to make a detour to attack the Guangqu Gate and attract Wu Sangui to run back and forth, and Chongzhen's southern tour is also here after all, it can be regarded as a back hand, there are 50,000 people in the Beijing camp there, led by Li Guozhen, the commander of the imperial Beijing camp! Therefore, the city gate fell, and Emperor Chongzhen immediately thought of ordering Li Guozhen to escort him.

Similarly, the Dongjiang River has a fast boat off the coast of Tianjin, and if you want to escape from Beijing, the fastest way to go south from here, Lu Zhong also pressed the treasure here, but he, like Emperor Chongzhen, didn't expect that Li Guozhen's Ming nobles in this era would descend so quickly!

In order to block the imperial court's escape to the south, it must be densely packed here, and it is no longer safe to take this road, his brows were locked for a few seconds, and Lu Zhong immediately made a decisive judgment.

"Give the order to 100 households, let them ensure the northwest passage! Master, please go back to the house for a while!"

"There's Lord Lao!"

Neither panicked nor questioned, Chen Jiao just nodded flatly, turned around and walked back with the carriage.

Lu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief again, and then he grabbed him viciously, and shouted angrily and in a low voice.

…………

The northern gates of the inner city of Jingshi have not fallen until now, after all, the city of Jingshi is too big, even if the news comes, it will take more than an hour, and the Dashun army that entered the city began to lose control, and began to loot from house to house, and did not rush to attack.

On the Desheng Gate, Ning Jinbo Liu Guangfu, who was responsible for defending here, was like an ant on a hot pot, constantly turning around in circles, the other doors were okay, the Dashun Army could surrender as soon as he came, he wanted to surrender but he didn't even have a person.

Take the initiative to go out of the city to find the opposite Dashun army to surrender? Will that leave a stigma in history! What's more, it also made Da Shunjun feel that he was too cheap, and he would not have a good position in the new dynasty!

But just when he was worried, on the city wall, suddenly there was a cannon sound, and he went straight to the opposite side of the army camp, the main battlefield was in the east of the Guangqu Gate and the west of the Fucheng Gate, the defenders of the Desheng Gate were Ba had to provoke these evil gods, you don't hit me, I won't beat you, so that the party Shousu army camp that monitored here was very close to the city wall, and the cannon just hit the vicinity of the party Shousu banner, killing several Dashun patrols.

"Who the fuck shot it? Ben Bo is going to kill you!"

At this time, it was the time to have a good relationship with the Shun army, looking at the chaotic Shun army, this Ning Jinbo almost didn't fall off the city wall, he was full of anger, he pulled out his knife and went straight to the place where the artillery roared just now.

But at this moment, a tooth-aching creaking sound sounded, and in his disbelief, the door of Desheng opened!

After being shot and killing his own people, the opposite city gate was still open, if he was a somewhat scheming commander, he might have to consider whether there was an ambush, but for the Shunjun Qu Shuai who was born as a thief, this is not much worse than a beautiful woman who hooked her fingers with her skirt open, his eyes were red, he directly pulled out the knife and roared: "Kill his mother!"

At the gate of the city, dozens of soldiers guarding the city watched in astonishment as their commander turned around and ran away with his own soldiers, and then, turning around, the surging Shun army outside came in, and they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

But just after being shot, is it easy to kowtow? In the clicking sound, these people were directly cut to the ground by the Shun army who rushed in.

For a while, the vicinity of Desheng Gate was also reduced to a slaughter field, looking at the routing and fleeing subordinates, as well as the red-eyed Shun army, for a while, Liu Guangfu really didn't cry.

"Which one lacks virtue!!

…………

In the mansion, time is also passing minute by minute, in the car, Mao Wenlong's snoring is still strong, and the incense that sleeps quietly on the side has also been lit, sitting on the wheel, Chen Jiao is quietly knitting a sweater, holding a knife in both hands and standing at the back door, Lu Zhong is not calm and anxious and looks at the street.

Finally, the dark brocade guard hurried back.

"My lord! Desheng Gate opens! Most of the Shun military departments outside the door were attracted over, and there were not too many troops outside the Dongzhi Gate and the Anding Gate!"

"Good! Your men and horses are in front of the road, the Flying Bears, ...... with Lao Tzu"

There were too many accidents this time, and before Lu Zhong could finish shouting, the brocade guard post climbing on the big tree in the courtyard had already jumped down.

"My lord! In the direction of the Imperial City, there is a fire! There are thieves!"

"What?"

Climbing up the wall in a fit of rage, Lu Zhong's lookout, the torches that filled the air had already illuminated several nearby streets, and the loud shouts and fighting sounds were clearly in his ears, and under his gloomy watch, more than a dozen black shadows staggered at the street entrance.

…………

"Don't let them run!"

Outside the Mansion of the Kingdom of Ji, there was finally a shout, I don't know that the team of brocade guards or the imperial horse guards dragged their scarred bodies, and fled north in a panic, while the brigade of soldiers shouted around the outer wall of the mansion and chased and killed.

Inside the door, two little eunuchs hugged King Yong, King Ding and the prince listened to the sound outside, Mao Wenlong's sweet dream was finally awakened, he kept comforting the frightened Princess Changping, and Lu Zhong gritted his teeth and wanted to stab them a few times.

But now, he has escaped Lu Zhong's control, and his face is gloomy, and he is roaring in a low voice at a few cronies and officers.

"Send, send a letter to the falcon, report to Ning Yuan!"

In the fluttering sound, a dexterous peregrine falcon burrowed into the darkness......
