Chapter 147: Who are the two horsemen from the dust
The sons and brothers were at a loss, and they all looked at Xu Erdou, after all, he was from the palace, and he could still talk to this little prince.
Xu Erdou is not afraid of anti-joy, he is obsessed with gambling, even to the point of no gambling and no joy. Knowing that Zhu Yousong didn't have any good intentions, he still asked, "What does the prince want to bet on?" ”
Zhu Yousong snickered and said: "You are all the mainstays of Luoyang, young talents, it is extremely difficult to deal with the aftermath of the flood in Luoyang." ”
Although the people present were all sensual dogs and horses, and they didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, few of them were fools. They themselves know their own pounds, and they are still young and talented, the mainstay? It can't do anything with them.
"In that case, I'll divide the disaster area into well, Xu Erdou, how many people are here?"
Xu Erdou had already guessed a rough idea, and said uneasily: "Twelve. . . ”
"Okay, then I'll divide it into twelve disaster areas, hand them over to your supervisors, you each rely on your ability, raise money and food, and when the time comes, I'll see which disaster area does the best, and there are many rewards, and the worst ones, hum. is the loser of this gamble, I will go to your house and discuss with your fathers the feat of gambling on the embankment. ”
Twelve people, including Xu Erdou, instantly darkened their faces. Especially Xu Erdou, he can be said to be the poorest of these people.
"Lord Wang, we are all juniors in the family, we can't be the masters, and the money and food we can come up with are really not much."
Zhu Yousong smiled narrowly and said: "Naturally, I won't let you all take it, so let's do it, this king will take the lion's head, and the palace will distribute it evenly to each of your divisions, and you will figure out the rest by yourself." ”
After Zhu Yousong finished speaking, he didn't wait for them to continue complaining, and stretched out his hand to make a move. Zhang Yuanhua walked over with the guards of the palace.
"Write down the names of these people, ask for the address of the family, and hand them to me later." After saying that, he didn't look back, and went straight back to the dam to supervise the work.
Zhang Yuanhua waited for him to leave, laughed, punched Xu Erdou, and asked, "Adou, what are you doing again?" ”
Xu Erdou grinned and said, "Light, sure enough, you look black, and you don't have any good things." ”
Zhang Yuanhua didn't care, and asked the reason, Xu Erdou hung his head and said the little prince's gamble.
Zhang Yuanhua smiled forward and backward, picked up his thumb and said: "Good job, you are all first-class good people, come on, come from the newspaper door one by one." ”
Although these sons and brothers can't directly manage the family's money, their daily squandering is not a small amount.
Since Zhu Yousong assigned them the disaster area on the dam that day, these people have changed their temperament, and no one has gone to the Zuixianlou to wait for the gold cave, and even eats honestly at home. The money saved was changed into food and clothing to support his community.
Zhu Yousong saw that they were also really interested, and secretly instructed Zhang Yuanhua to secretly help Xu Erdou with the money of the palace, so that he would not be too ugly.
He also praised these attentive sons, and each of them sent someone to their home to commend them.
The fathers of these people, who were not short of money, saw that their unsuccessful sons had such an honor, and they all took out money to support their respective sons.
In addition, Fuwangfu has always bought grain and never sold it. The food taken out by the palace was enough to supply the victims near Luoyang. There has never been a time when the Yellow River burst its banks like this one, and the refugees have been resettled so properly.
Zhu Youzhen is in the middle of the court and has completed his own cleaning. With the help of Zhu Yousong, it would have taken a long time to complete, and the purge of the eunuch party was completed ahead of schedule.
Looking at the court, Zhu Youzhen thinks that he is a loyal and good general, and he is ambitious to complete his goal when he succeeds to the throne. There is another person who is an eyesore at the moment, and that is Luoyang Xiaofu Wang.
Hearing that his reputation in Luoyang was in full swing, Zhu Youzhen hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched. This cousin of mine was in the capital at the beginning, and he was a childhood playmate.
At that time, Zhu Youzhen knew that this cousin, like his father, was a greedy and stubborn little prince who only entered but could not leave.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived in Luoyang, his temperament changed drastically. According to Zhu Youzhen's speculation, this little lucky king will inevitably refrain from disaster relief and then make a fool of himself. Then he would have a reason to summon him to the capital for accountability.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen hatefully threw the piece in his hand on the ground, which was the piece of the Luoyang prefect Ma Shiying asking for merit for King Fu.
"This Ma Shiying, who reads the book of sages and sages, has been honored by the emperor to go to any of the palaces in Luoyang, and he is also a vassal king, hateful! Damn it! ”
Zhu Youzhen summoned the little eunuch beside him and summoned his newly promoted first assistant Zhou Yanru into the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Zhou Yanru fulfilled his long-cherished wish and achieved the highest position of the first assistant of the cabinet, the highest position of the world's civil ministers, and was about to be ambitious, assist the emperor, and prosper the Ming Dynasty. Hearing Zhu Youzhen's call, he came to the Heart Cultivation Hall in a hurry.
Zhu Youzhen got straight to the point and asked: "Zhou Aiqing, before Wei Wei left, the last early dynasty, what do you think?" ”
Zhou Yanru heard the song and knew the elegant meaning, denounced King Xiaofu for doing evil, and promised that he would be impeached in court tomorrow. Zhu Youzhen nodded with satisfaction, and personally got up and sent him out. Such an honor made Zhou Yanru grateful.
In Luoyang City, in the palace, Zhu Yousong sat at home, and disaster came from the sky.
The news of the impeachment of the cabinet in the court disappeared, and it reached Luoyang one step ahead of the will of the imperial court.
The emperor was furious, but remembering the blood relatives of King Fu Tianzi, Xuan Zhu Yousong entered Beijing to defend himself.
In response, Zhu Yousong responded with two words: "Don't go." ”
There was a lot of noise in Luoyang City, and even a seven or eight-year-old boy knew that a big war was about to break out. On the streets, all kinds of stalls, vendors, and shops are closed and hiding in their homes. Fortunately, this time both sides are men and horses of the Ming Dynasty, and no matter who wins, they will not be affected.
The city gate was closed, and the royal forces in the nearby townships and counties were also recalled to Luoyang. On the city tower, Zhu Yousong inspected as usual, and since he heard the news, he would climb the Luoyang City Tower every day.
Suddenly, Zhao Hong pointed to the distance and said, "Lord Wang, look! ”
Everyone looked at his fingers, and saw two horsemen galloping towards him.
Around Luoyang City, there has been no one to come and go these days. The sudden appearance of two horses makes people think about it.
Zhu Yousong said in a deep voice: "Most of them are the forward exploration, could it be that the imperial army came so soon?" ”
After a while, the two horses got closer and closer, but there was no sign of the army on the distant horizon.
Zhu Yousong sneered, turned back to his subordinates and said: "I heard that Li Cunxiao, the general of the Later Tang Dynasty, defeated Chang'an City with 13 horsemen, and broke out of the prestige of "General Li". Today, these two people, are they going to fight Luoyang? ”
Everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere eased.
Finally, two men came to the city, and one of them took off his cloak and revealed a face that was still majestic. Clenched his fists and shouted: "A certain Cao Wenzhao came to drive for the Fu Wangye." ”
