Chapter 829: People's hearts are back

Hundreds of civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty gathered on Huangjiawan Island, and more than nine adults discussed the topic of how to persuade the king of the south to ascend the throne as soon as possible.

They are all looking forward to the reunification of the new Ming Dynasty to recover Gyeonggi, and they are all gritting their teeth and trying to catch the thieves with a thousand cuts.

The hatred of these civil and military officers for the thieves is really from the bottom of their hearts, and many of them are direct victims, and there are not a few who have killed their parents, wives and children.

Not all civil and military affairs decide their heads for the sake of flattery, and many people find that the "Nanming" political and common people are rich and yearn for it.

Some civil and military forces are extremely disappointed in the Ming army, so they wholeheartedly choose the king of the south, they all have relatives who died at the hands of thieves, and there is hatred and anger buried in their chests, and they all know that only the children of the "God of War" have a chance to defeat the thieves and avenge their relatives.

Liu Guozheng and Li Xihan have not shown up during this time, and they have been eating and living with Chongzhen and Wang Chengen.

Huangjiawan Island is a livable free trade island, where the climate is pleasant, clean and tidy, and the merchants from the south to the north have created the prosperity here.

Liu Guozheng intended to leave an unforgettable memory for Chongzhen, and even the details such as the meal were well considered, and the chefs of well-known restaurants on Huangjiawan Island took turns to come to the palace to provide services, which really made Chongzhen, who had no time and no mood to enjoy food before, have a great appetite.

Chongzhen, who is accustomed to being busy every day, has become idle and really not suitable for the idle days on Huangjiawan Island, fortunately, Huang Sheng has lived here for a few years, there are enough books in the study, there is no subset of scriptures and history, most of them are science books, and some of them are military books and war strategies, these books are very appetizing to Chongzhen.

The three and a half men who live here are under the attentive service of more than 20 maids, and their daily life is very regular, smelling the chickens and dancing in the early morning, Liu Guozheng and Li Xihan accompany Chongzhen to dance the sword and run the exercises, and then take a bath and have breakfast, and then the four of them choose their favorite books to read in the study......

Liu Guozheng did not take care of the emperor as a caged bird, they would put on makeup every once in a while to go shopping on the street, go to restaurants, listen to the words of the market, and look at all living beings.

Chongzhen is in a good mood every time he goes out, he finds everything interesting, and sometimes a candy seller's stall can attract him to stop and watch with relish.

Although there is no emperor pomp and circumstance, but there is more freedom to travel in micro-services, and he has seen the undisguised market scenery in the streets and alleys, and he has seen the happy work of the small people in Shengdou, Chongzhen feels extremely fresh, so he is not tired of it.

He and Wang Chengen like to go to the Huangjiawan Island Grand Theater to watch a play, and they also like to go to the Wanghailou Leisure Center to enjoy the sauna.

Chongzhen used to be about a caged bird, came to Huangjiawan Island to live idle, his favorite atmosphere is that no one recognizes him, he can go shopping freely, he can chat with ordinary passers-by, and he can talk about business with businessmen who come to relax in the bath.

A few days after coming to Huangjiawan Island, Liu Guozheng told Chongzhen some good news, the British prince successfully fought out of the capital, has come to Tianjin Wei safely, the queen and several princes have left the "new Hangzhou" to return to the Ming Dynasty, and it will not be long before the family can reunite on the island.

In such a catastrophe, the family was actually safe, Chongzhen couldn't help but secretly pray to God, his mood was more relaxed, and the problem of insomnia that he used to have was much better.

Only after losing can you know how to cherish, and only after experiencing wind and rain can you know the warmth and coldness of people, Chongzhen feels that there is nothing more important than a family being alive at this moment.

He wasn't worried about what King Nan would do to him, because after observation, he found that Liu Guozheng and Li Xihan were neither arrogant nor humble and had no ill will towards him, on the contrary, it seemed that they still had some apologies.

This is not surprising, Liu Guozheng took it upon himself to detain the task assigned by the Ming Emperor and the King of the South, and after completing it, it was very inconsistent to send the emperor to meet as soon as possible.

They have never violated Huang Sheng's intentions, and detained Chongzhen always felt strange in his heart, needless to say that this is the Ming Emperor, just talk about this old man who is the king of the south, they can't be treated badly.

On this day, Chongzhen took Wang Chengen to go out to the bustling street to go to the theater after shopping, because yesterday they saw the poster posted by the Huangjiawan Island Grand Theater, and knew that there was a new play staged today, and the title of "Pingding Liaodong" was very attractive to Chongzhen.

Liu Guozheng hurriedly stopped them, because too many Ming civil officials and military generals learned that the king of the south was coming, and they rushed to Huangjiawan Island, and many restaurants and tea shops had these people talking about persuading the king of the south to ascend the throne.

Going out for a stroll is already Chongzhen's favorite, the drama of "pacifying Liaodong" makes him itchy and unbearable, he knows that the king of the south has destroyed the country, and the remnants of the Jiannu are thousands of miles away, and now Liaodong and Goryeo are "Nanming" territory.

Obviously, this drama is about how to defeat Jiannu and regain Liaodong, and how to chase and kill Jiannu thousands of miles away, Chongzhen certainly wants to have a sneak peek.

Chongzhen, who was about to go out, was suddenly stopped by Liu Guozheng, who had been accompanying him, a little strange, and he asked, "General Liu, why is this?" Huangjiawan Island is stable and wealthy, the people are simple, and I don't need to be accompanied, and I will be fine. ”

Liu Guozheng explained: "Your Majesty, it's not a security issue, it's because the Ming Dynasty who came to the island to wait for the king of the south has gradually increased in the past few days, and the lower officials are worried that His Majesty will be recognized and cause unnecessary trouble. ”

Chongzhen has learned from Liu Guozheng that the pseudo-"Dashun" dynasty of the thieves has announced that he and Wang Chengen have hanged the coal mountain, and there is a suicide note written by himself as evidence.

Liu Guozheng's explanation is to use the golden cicada's shelling strategy to paralyze the thief, in order to protect him from danger more easily.

The intelligence showed that the thieves were convinced that they had committed suicide and martyrdom, and the news from the capital was that the thieves were searching for the Ming Dynasty and the military nobles everywhere, with only one purpose - to torture the emperor, and no one asked about the emperor's traces.

With his own suicide note as a basis, it seems logical that people in the world know that the Ming Emperor was martyred, and Chongzhen thinks that there is nothing wrong. If it weren't for "Nanming" to make a move, this would be his fate.

Now that God has opened his eyes and given him a chance to be reborn, Chongzhen feels that he can't waste this good time, in order to prevent the ministers of the Ming Dynasty from recognizing how boring it is to hide all day.

Chongzhen negotiated with Liu Guozheng and said: "General Liu, I am quite curious that the Ming Dynasty civil and military officials know about the words and deeds of the Great Ming Dynasty after the martyrdom of the emperor, I want to go to the restaurant tea shop to find out, whether the general has any good ideas." ”

Wang Chengen was also quite curious about the words and deeds of many sanctimonious civil and military generals at the critical moment when the country was ruined and the family was ruined, and he also helped: "General Liu, Your Majesty wants to distinguish the loyalty and traitor of the Ming civil and military officials from the side, and our family also asks you to fulfill it." ”

Liu Guozheng was embarrassed: "This, the lower officials think that out of sight is pure, and it is better for Your Majesty not to see or listen." ”

Chongzhen smiled: "I have already experienced life and death, what else can't I see?" Most of the Ming civil and military forces are facing the king of the south, and I have long known that I am afraid that they are all rushing to the king of the south at this time. It doesn't matter, I am mentally prepared, General Liu does not need to worry, although it is arranged. ”

Liu Guozheng thought about it, and asked the Ming Emperor to put himself in the shoes of the people, and it was feasible to see how good the people were, but only by asking for three chapters of the law could he accompany Chongzhen to blend into the circle of the Ming bureaucracy.
