Chapter Twenty-Nine
When the news of the recovery of Suzhou City came out, the world shook, and the Ming people in the south were excited.
The nearest Lu Wangjian regime did not react, and this small court in a corner of peace not only did not respond in time, but fell into a quarrel.
Zhu Dadian, a scholar, Qian Sule, a supervisor, and Fang Guoan, a general, all believed that the enemy was at present, and they should abandon their prejudices and resist the Qing Dynasty together. In the hearts of these people, they were actually in favor of the union of Min and Zhejiang, and accepted the legitimate status of the Longwu regime of the Tang Dynasty, so as not to isolate eastern Zhejiang.
Although this small court did not have the territory and strength of the Ming Dynasty at that time, it perfectly inherited the tradition of the Ming Dynasty - party struggle.
Zhang Guowei, a scholar, Wang Zhiren, a general, and Zhang Guojun, an uncle, resolutely opposed it. claimed to support Wu Zhikui and recapture Suzhou. The funny thing is that Hangzhou is right in front of them, and it is still in the hands of the Qing army, but they dare not come to fight. Suzhou was recovered by the Ming Dynasty, but they shouted to fight. This group of people has the courage to fight inwardly, is afraid of foreign wars, but is also keen to compete for fame and fortune, and they are really traitors who are blind to the country and the people.
They quarreled back and forth, and they didn't dare to really fight Suzhou, after all, between them and Suzhou, there were still many Qing troops that they feared like tigers.
This matter was put on hold like this, Suzhou was recovered, and King Lu's regime did not move, which is so strange.
Fuzhou City, the former political envoy of Fujian, is now in the palace.
Emperor Longwu, also known as Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang, stood outside the palace gate, and his forty-year-old body was still white and fat for the other vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty. But since Zhu Yujian was born, he hasn't had a few good days. First, together with his father, he was imprisoned by his own grandfather for more than ten years. Then because of the forcible King Qin, he was imprisoned by Emperor Chongzhen for several years, and now although he is the emperor, he is constrained by the Zheng Zhilong brothers everywhere.
Now Zhu Yujian, who has just reached the age of not being confused, has gray hair on his sideburns, and the wrinkles on his face are deepening day by day.
He stood at the palace gate, his shoulders slightly slumped, slightly rickety. Raise your palms to block out the sun and look into the distance.
"Haven't the orphans of Yasukuni and the remnants of Jiading arrived yet?"
The eunuch who was waiting beside him bent down and said softly: "Long live Lord, this is only the time, yesterday's express report said that they can arrive today." You'd love to meet this mentor. ”
Zhu Yujian smiled and said: "What the companion said is right, Bandang knows Chengchen, and the wind knows the grass." Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the civil officials heard the wind and surrendered, and the military generals disarmed and defected. Only the Duke of Yasukuni died and died in the battle, the Hou Huang of Jiading City, and the whole city was shattered. After such loyalty, when the children and grandchildren of our Zhu family see each other in the future, even if they are three-year-old children, they must treat each other with courtesy. ”
After Gong Zifang fled to Shaoxing, he sent people across the river to find Hou Xuanyan. Later, after Hou Xuanyan ordered people to cross the river, they knew that Hou Xuanyan was not dead, and they immediately relieved their hearts and were overjoyed. Later, I heard that he followed the Xia family father and son to Taihu Lake to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Gong Zifang kept Hou Xuanyan's instructions in mind, and did not dare to stay in Shaoxing for a moment, and fled to Fuzhou.
Huang Ying'er had no relatives, so she simply took her personal soldiers and followed the remnants of Jiading to Fuzhou together.
They escaped from the territory of King Lu, and immediately rushed to make the flag of Jiading to suppress the righteous division, and marched with great fanfare. And when he saw people, he said that he was miserable in Jiading and loyal and brave in Yasukuni. The magistrates along the way did not dare to slack off, and played one after another, and after Zhu Yujian heard about it, he was extremely moved.
Zhu Yujian made a decree, summoned this group of loyal martyrs, and personally greeted him.
Finally, a little figure appeared at the end of the road, and Fan Xiong, the commander of the pro-soldiers, walked in the front. To open the way for Huang Ying'er, Gong Zifang and others were still behind, tidying up their clothes one by one, and coming forward to meet the saint with their heads held high.
Zhu Yujian's face was flushed and emotional, he had been trapped in Fuzhou for so long, and he was restrained by the Zheng Zhilong brothers everywhere. If you want to show your strength, you have to look at the faces of these two pirate leaders, after all, they have a lot of weapons. Today, he put aside the depression in his heart for the time being, opened his heart, and came to meet this righteous teacher.
Huang Ying'er stepped forward and knelt down and said, "The people's daughter Huang Ying'er has seen my emperor's long live." ”
Zhu Yujian was hindered by the defense of men and women, so he helped him and said, "Hurry up, please get up." ”
When she saw Huang Ying'er, Zhu Yujian, who was not a good woman, couldn't help but praise it secretly in her heart: What a stunning girl.
"The Duke of Yasukuni is the pillar of the country, he was killed by traitors, and he was killed in battle, and I am very sad in my heart. The decree was posthumously crowned as the king of Jingsui and Huang Yinger as the lord of Jingsui. ”
"The courtiers thank your majesty for your father's grace." Huang Ying'er was also a little moved, the image of this emperor was several grades better in her heart than the one who escaped to the Daddy array. No wonder the Hou family brother asked us to come to him, he really has a vision.
Fan Xiong and other pro-soldiers lit up their eyes, so that although the Huang family has no male heir, there is a county lord who can still open a mansion and settle down.
Zhu Yujian looked at Gong Laosan and the others, who were ragged but resolute behind her, took a few steps forward, and asked in a heavy tone: "This is the remnants of Jiading's righteous teacher, right?" ”
"Grass people Jiading Gong Zifang, long live my emperor when he sees it."
"Hurry up."
Zhu Yujian's eyes were full of mist, he held Gong Zifang's shoulder, and said: "You Jiading, you are all good, we have such people in the Ming Dynasty, it is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty." Gong Yishi, who else is in the family? ”
"Back to the emperor, the two brothers of the grass people followed Lord Hou Yuzeng, and committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river after the city was broken. The whole family of the grass people was killed by Li Chengdong, and I was the only one who escaped. ”
After hearing this, Zhu Yujian was even more moved and comforted: "The mountains and rivers are broken, and I have the same hatred and hatred with you." I heard that Hou Yu Zengqing's family still has an eldest son alive, why don't you see it? ”
When the remnants of Jiading heard him ask Hou Xuanyan, a strange look appeared on their faces, and they were looked at by Zhu Yujian.
"It seems that this Hou family has a lot of weight in their hearts."
"Back to the emperor, Hou Xuanyan went alone to block the pursuing soldiers in order to cover us across the river. Later, he killed the enemy general who came to chase him, met Xia Wanchun, the anti-Qing righteous teacher, and followed him to Taihu Lake to fight. ”
When Zhu Yujian heard this, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "What a Hou Xuanyan!" The tiger father has no dog, this is the backbone of my Ming Dynasty. ”
Suddenly, there was a sound of clattering horses' hooves, and the guards were not alarmed, surrounded Zhu Yujian, and protected him in the center.
But he saw a postman, riding on a horse, hurrying forward. Seeing the royal car, a beautiful tumbling horse fell off his horse, kneeling on the ground and shouting:
"Good news! Good news! Suzhou is recovered, Suzhou is recovered! ”
