After Zhang Jiayu entered the city, he found that a major general of the Qing army had not been caught, but a lot of prisoners had been captured. After the city was broken, most of the Qing army lost the motivation to resist, and the Ming army did not kill prisoners, so they all surrendered. Zhang Jiayu suspected that there were Qing generals mixed with the captives, so he handed over the task of screening the captives to Jinyiwei.

Wang Tong is also very depressed now, not for the sake of Ganzhou, but for Qian Lide in Guangdong. He had just received news that he had commanded Master Qian to be thrown into prison by the emperor, and he heard that it was because of the Qing army's attack on Guangzhou. The emperor was furious and slapped Lord Qian with peach blossoms, but fortunately, Lord Qian was the emperor's hair, and his official position and life would not be lost. However, the Jinyiwei below was unlucky, and the Qing army passed through the prefectures and counties, and hundreds of Jinyiwei households were beheaded, and their families were sold into slavery.

Wang Tong was very glad that he was sent to Nanxiong, although this is a war zone, but because it is a war zone, the Qing army does not dare to pass here, so his head and his family can be preserved.

What made Wang Tong depressed was that the commander sent a secret order to himself, because of the Guangzhou incident, Jinyiwei had been killed by the Dongchang gang in front of the emperor. I heard that Cao Fang, the current commander of Dongchang, now sees that Lord Qian is already standing and talking. You must know that just before the Guangzhou incident, Cao Fang saw that Lord Qian had to kneel and reply, who called Lord Qian the emperor's hair Xiao, and Emperor Jiajing's hair Xiao Lu Bing.

Therefore, Qian Lide's letter to Wang Tong said that now the emperor's attention is all in Ganzhou, so that Wang Tong must make great contributions and fight for Jinyiwei.

Therefore, Wang Tong immediately began to work after receiving Zhang Jiayu's general order, striving to catch the big fish of the Qing army as soon as possible and make a long face for Lord Qian.

After entering the city, Wang Tong took his brother-in-law to work overnight, and now he has interrogated more than a dozen suspects, not to mention, he really caught a few big fish, but they are all Qing army generals at the level of general and deputy general, and the main Jin family father and son and Wang Deren have not been caught.

Wang Tong looked at the Qing soldiers who were escorted in, and he could see at a glance that this Qing soldiers were not simple. Wang Tongzu is a hundred households in Jinyi, and he is familiar with handling cases and interrogations.

"Qing soldiers on the other side, tell me about yourself!"

Jin Daoming still wanted to quibble, but Yang Xian on the side of Wang Tong had already recognized him. When they entered the city at that time, the Jin family's father and son rode tall horses, as the latent brocade guards, how could Yang Xian not pay attention to them?

Yang Xian stood up and walked to Jin Daoming's side, and said with a smile: "Don't pretend, Second General Jin?" ”

Hearing that his identity was revealed, Jin Daoming's face was like ashes, and his eyes were rolling around thinking about what to do. If you don't want to find a way, you will only have a dead end.

At this time, Jin Daoming suddenly thought of Zhu Hongsan, this Ming army's artillery was the same as the army back then, that is to say, they were inseparable from Zhu Hongsan, maybe only in this way could they save their lives.

Jin Daoming thought of this and shouted loudly: "Do you know Zhu Hongsan? I'm his relative! ”

Wang Tong and Yang Xian didn't expect this guy to recognize His Majesty the Emperor, but they had never heard that the emperor had relatives from the Qing army! However, the king informed that His Majesty the Emperor was lustful, and that several of his wives had been taken by force, and perhaps they were relatives of that wife.

Even the emperor's most unfavored concubine is not something that he can afford to provoke a small brocade guard. Wang Tong heard Jin Daoming say this, and asked, "Bold, you actually mentioned the name of our Shenwu Emperor, don't you want to live?" ”

Jin Daoming was stunned when he heard this, Emperor Shenwu knew that after all, Zhu Hongsan's edict on enthronement had been spread throughout South China, but it did not say that it was Zhu Hongsan, but it only said that the King of Chu ascended the throne in accordance with the will of heaven and became the emperor.

I didn't expect that the broken clan back then could be the emperor? Jin Daoming felt that the world was too incredible, and even began to doubt life.

Just when Jin Daoming doubted his life, Wang Tong asked: "You said that you are a relative of His Majesty the Emperor, tell me what kind of relative, if you say a lie, don't blame us for being polite!" ”

"My wife is Ma Jiyuan's second daughter, and your emperor is my brother-in-law!"

Ma Jiyuan's daughter is the current imperial concubine, this king notified, but he didn't expect Governor Ma to have a second daughter.

Wang Tong and Yang Xian discussed it in a low voice, and decided not to touch this Jin Daoming yet, if what he said was false, it would be easy to do, if it really injured him, it would be unlucky, who didn't know that Ma Jiyuan was the governor and Ma Mingyuan was the first vice premier. Although Jinyiwei is not under their control, it is uncomfortable enough to give you some eye medicine.

Wang Tong asked Jin Daoming to be taken down first and detained in solitary confinement. Then he said to his brother-in-law: "Do you see that he is really Jin Daoming?" ”

"Yes, brother-in-law! Although he is disgraced now, I will never admit that he is wrong! ”

Wang Tong groaned: "It's a little troublesome now!" It's easy to catch a big fish, but I didn't expect it to be a relative of His Majesty the Emperor, what can I do? ”

"Brother-in-law, this is not easy to do, we are interrogating the prisoner of war by the prefect, and we should hand him over to the prefect! If it is true, then let's find His Majesty's relatives, and Lord Qian can also regain His Majesty's trust. If it's fake, there will also be the prefect who will carry this black pot with us! ”

"That's right! That's a good idea! ”

After making up his mind, Wang Tong hurried to Zhang Jiayu and reported this important situation to him.

Zhang Jiayu was also very busy after entering the city, and the magistrates in Ganzhou were all killed by the Qing army, but now there is no one to work at all. The city was still slaughtered by the Qing army, but there were still 50,000 or 60,000 ordinary people left, and the resettlement of these people was a big problem.

At the same time as issuing the notice of peace to the people, Zhang Jiayu wrote a letter to Guangdong, asking His Majesty the Emperor to hurry up and bring grain. The 50,000 people in the city, plus more than 70,000 Qing prisoners outside the city, had less than a month of food and grass.

At this time, Jinyi Wei Qianhu Wang Tong came to report that Jin Daoming was caught, Zhang Jiayu was still very happy, and finally caught one, but it was a pity that Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren were not caught.

After hearing Wang Tong say that Jin Daoming himself said that he was a relative of the emperor, and his wife and imperial concubine were sisters, this news was really amazing.

Zhang Jiayu knew that Ma Ruyan was not coming from the right way, and Ma Jiyuan usually didn't like this concubine's daughter very much, but Zhang Jiayu didn't know anything about Xinyang. After all, now that Zhu Hongsan is the emperor, he still has to make a face, and everyone has a tacit understanding not to mention the bad things he did before.

Zhang Jiayu thought about it, and called Ma Rufeng to ask, after all, he was the younger brother of the imperial concubine Ma Ruyan.

Soon Ma Rufeng was called, and after Zhang Jiayu told him about the matter, Ma Rufeng's face was full of weirdness.

Wang Tong is also an old fritter, looking at Ma Rufeng's appearance, he knows that this matter is not far from ten, and this kind of emperor's palace secrets are still less known. Wang Tong hurriedly said that he still had to interrogate the prisoners of war and left Zhang Jiayu.

Seeing Wang Tong go out, Ma Rufeng sighed and told Zhang Jiayu about what happened in Xinyang back then.

Of course, Ma Rufeng didn't say anything about Zhu Hongsan letting Kou into the city for his own life, but Zhang Jiayu is a human spirit, and from some of the things that Ma Rufeng occasionally said, coupled with his understanding of Zhu Hongsan's personality, he still knows the general idea of the matter. However, Zhang Jiayu didn't ask in detail, the less you know about this kind of thing, the better.

"It seems that the concubine has a younger sister, so please ask Head Ma to take a look at this Jin Daoming and touch his situation!"

After learning that Jin Daoming was really the emperor's brother-in-law, Zhang Jiayu immediately had a plan in his heart to use this Jin Daoming. Now Jin Shenghuan is the Jiangxi general army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Qing army in Jiangxi is under his command.

Ma Rufeng heard Zhang Jiayu say this, nodded, and said that it was late today, and he would go to visit Jin Daoming tomorrow.

The king informed Jin Daoming of his relationship with the emperor, and immediately went back to resettle Jin Daoming, prepared a clean room for him, changed his clothes, and took a bath.

Jin Daoming saw the change in his treatment and knew that they confirmed what he said, and it seemed that he didn't have to die, so he couldn't help but relax and sleep well.

This night, Jin Daoming slept very soundly, and he didn't get up until three o'clock the next day. As soon as Jin Daoming got up, he saw a person sitting in the room, rubbing his eyes and taking a closer look, it was his brother-in-law Ma Rufeng.

Jin Daoming stepped forward and hugged Ma Rufeng's leg and shouted, "Uncle, you are here, you must save me!" ”

Ma Rufeng and Jin Daoming were able to talk together when they were in Xinyang, after all, Ma Rufeng was also a soldier, and Jin Daoming, who was born in the military, had some common language. Unexpectedly, after more than ten years of separation, the two met again in Ganzhou, thousands of miles away from Xinyang.

Ma Rufeng sighed and said, "Brother-in-law, get up quickly." After speaking, he helped Jin Daoming to sit down.

"Brother-in-law, how are you doing after more than ten years? How is my sister? ”

"Hey! How else can I live, my younger brother is just a military household, and he still fights with his father! Ruyun is doing well, our son is eight years old, Ruyun was five months pregnant when I left Nanchang, and now she should be born! ”

Hearing that his sister was fine, Ma Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief. At that time, my sister Ma Ruyan was in front of her grandfather all the year round, and her two elder brothers did not treat her, so Ma Rufeng and her sister born to one mother were very close, and now she is doing well Ma Rufeng is also very happy.

"Uncle, I heard the interrogation of my Jinyi Wei say that Zhu Hongsan has become the emperor?"

Ma Rufeng hurriedly interrupted Jin Daoming's words and looked around. Ma Rufeng knew how powerful Zhu Hongsan's spy methods were, that is, there were secret agents in his regiment, so it was better to do less to mention the emperor's name without authorization.

"Now you want to call Emperor Shenwu, don't mention your name again!"

Jin Daoming didn't know how powerful Zhu Hongsan was, but when he saw Ma Rufeng's cautious appearance, he still nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Brother-in-law, I'm here to see how you are doing, but how to arrange you still needs the emperor's will, big brother really can't help here!"

Hearing Ma Rufeng say this, Jin Daoming, who had just put his mind at ease, lifted his heart again and asked, "Big brother, can't my father-in-law save me?" ”

Ma Rufeng shook his head and said: "His Majesty the Emperor is no better than several other emperors, the emperor is arbitrary and extremely wise, and my father can't change the emperor's decision!" After Ma Rufeng finished speaking, he said goodbye to the stunned Jin Daoming and left the room.
