Chapter 115 The cowardly will also burst out with courage

The Chu army and the loyal battalion attacked from all sides, and in just a few days, they seized most of the prefectures and counties of Chenzhou and Baoqing Mansions.

As the saying goes, being a thief has a weak heart, and in Liu Chengyin's view, the reason why the Chu army and the loyal battalion took hostile actions must be that there was a leak of the news, and the attempt to surrender to the Manchu Qing has been exposed. In this case, he didn't dare to reason with Wang Kefan with his courage, so he could only watch the Chu army and the loyal battalion occupy his territory, and simply put aside all his worries and threw himself into the arms of the Manchu master.

He sent an envoy to Kong Youde overnight, expressing his sincere surrender request, asking the Qing army to enter Yuanling City immediately, but Kong Youde was shrewd and did not believe that the pie would fall in vain.

When the messenger came back to tell him about the situation, Liu Chengyin felt deeply helpless, inexplicably aggrieved, in this hellish world, is it so difficult to be a dog? He got up early in the morning, ordered someone to call a head shaver, changed himself into a new hairstyle of "money rat tail", and then took a few cronies out of Yuanling City and personally rushed to the Qing army camp to meet Kong Youde......

……

Fei Dongyang is a general manager under Liu Chengyin's account, his family was originally an ordinary farmer, forced to join the army for his livelihood, and climbed step by step from a small soldier to his current position, but he has no backing in the army, and he has stood still after becoming the general manager, and has not been promoted for several years.

It doesn't matter if you don't get promoted, it's all messy anyway. Liu Chengyin's discipline in the army was not strict, and Fei Dongyang had been mixed for a long time. From a simple peasant boy to a soldier full of problems, proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and dazed. lives without heart and lungs, and is at ease every day.

Recently, he took on a very easy task, responsible for guarding the Yin Hotel under house arrest, this job does not need to fight, and there is no need to go out to exercise, as long as he guards the small courtyard where Yin Xi lives, as well as the front and back doors of the Yin Hotel. He divided his brothers into groups. Three shifts take turns to guard, using only a few dozen people each time, and Yuanling City is as safe as an iron bucket. There will be no accident at all in the daytime, but at night, you have to send people to keep an eye on it, so as not to let Plug Yinxi jump off the wall and run away while it is dark.

On the first night, the third watch was checked, and then he was called to drink flower wine. It was noisy until the fourth watch before going to sleep. Early in the morning, he was called by General Zhang Shen, who was in charge of him, and told him that Liu Chengyin had left the city, and instructed him to guard the Yin Hotel carefully during this period.

Returning to the Yin Hotel with a disgraced face, Fei Dongyang held his breath, and General Zhang was shallower than his qualifications. But he once served as a guard in Liu Chengyin's mansion for two years, so he hugged his thick legs. Flying all the way, not only climbed to his head, but also held chicken feathers as arrows, pointing fingers very annoyingly.

Yuanling City is now the world of Chenzhou soldiers, which one will come to save Yinxi? And even if you rescue the Yin Hotel, it will be impossible to get out of the city.

Fei Dongyang arrived at the Yin Hotel and immediately checked the post, only to find that the soldiers standing guard were quite honest, but the officers on duty in the morning could not find anyone.

"What about Yang Biao? Where did he die? Fei Dongyang was furious.

"It's still in the morning, I'll be back later......" The soldiers couldn't tell where Yang Biao was.

Fei Dongyang was even more angry, but there was a chaotic sound of footsteps behind him, and when he turned his head, Yang Biao walked into the gate with more than a dozen military academies, several of them were disheveled, Yang Biao still had a blue nose and swollen face, but he kept gesticulating, and was talking about something with a smile on his face.

Fei Dongyang went up and kicked his feet, first cleaned up the group, and then asked why he left his post, but Yang Biao looked like he didn't care.

"I ran into a few dog minions from the palace and got into a fight with them."

"The palace? Which royal palace? Fei Dongyang was stunned.

"King Tongshan, those guys look down on people, bully our brothers, and they were cleaned up hard to be honest, this fight is really enjoyable......" Yang Biao detailed what happened, just now he took two brothers to have breakfast, and the guards of Tongshan Wangfu accidentally clashed, those palace guards were very arrogant, as if they were deliberately provocative, they beat and scolded Yang Biao and others, and suffered a big loss, fortunately, not far from the Yin Hotel, Yang Biao turned back and called a group of subordinates, and went back to find the field, and beat the palace guards.

"Damn, can't you live in peace? Cause trouble for Lao Tzu everywhere, and I have to make amends and wipe your ass when I turn back! Fei Dongyang was even more angry in his heart, although Daming is declining, but compared with a small hand, the Ming prince is still an existence that cannot be offended, since Yang Biao beat people, the palace will definitely come to find trouble when he turns around, Liu Chengyin also has to give people a face, and he will definitely use Fei Dongyang as a scapegoat, and it will be light to be scolded.

Yang Biao was quite righteous, patted his chest and said: "A good man is a good man, the palace is looking for trouble, I will go alone, it's a big deal to get a few military sticks, and I won't cut off my head......"

At this time, there was a sudden gong outside the door, thirteen sticks sounded in a row, and then the drum music was great, and he came to the door of the Yin Hotel, Fei Dongyang's face couldn't help but change, thirteen gongs, meaning "civil and military officials, officials, military and civilians, etc., all avoided", there is no feudal official above the governor in Yuanling City, only Zhu Yunyao, the king of Tongshan, has this pomp.

He hurried to the door, on the street facing him, there were dozens of honor guards, with swords hanging from their waists, holding high the battle, lined up in a neat and mighty procession, surrounded by the middle of the car, Zhu Yunyao, the king of Tongshan, wearing a golden dragon crown on his head, wearing court clothes, and was stepping out of the car with the support of a eunuch. Seeing Fei Dongyang and the others come out, Zhu Yunyu glanced at them coldly, his expression was not angry and arrogant, and the bearing of the dragon son and grandson was full of majesty, and the eunuch shouted with a sharp voice: "The prince has arrived, and he has not opened the middle door to welcome him!" ”

The Ming Dynasty's nearly three hundred years of Yu Wei is still there, Zhu Yunyu is full of honor guards, and the guards are all out, such a solemn appearance, Fei Dongyang and the others have been suppressed, he has not forgotten his duties, stepped forward and saluted and asked: "The prince is here, I don't know what you are doing?" ”

"Are you Fei Dongyang?" Zhu Yunyu showed a slightly angry face, stared at him with sharp eyes, and said: "You connived at your subordinates to commit murder and hurt my royal slaves, and this king came to seek justice today." Come on, take down this ruffian for me! ”

The guards rushed up, and it was impossible to say that they held down Fei Dongyang, but Fei Dongyang's brain had been short-circuited, and he was obediently tied up - what kind of fame? It is a common thing for his subordinates to fight, how could King Tongshan come forward in person!

Under the identification of the two "victims", Yang Biao and a group of people were also arrested, although the number of Chenzhou soldiers was slightly larger, but they had never seen this kind of formation, and they were frightened, only thinking about how to distinguish and beg for mercy, and no one resisted at all.

After everything was done, Zhu Yunyu looked up at the door plaque of the Yin Hotel, and ordered very casually: "Let's go in and have a look......

Went straight to the small courtyard where Yin Xi was under house arrest, not long after, he took Yin Xi and his party out of it, and walked out of the gate of the Yin Hotel in a big way, the soldiers tried to come forward to stop them, but the palace guards showed their swords and drove them away viciously.

"There's no need to make a fuss, I'll just ask the military gate to drink tea, if you don't worry, just follow." Zhu Yunyu asked Gu Yinxi to get into the car, put up a guard of honor and left the Yin Hotel, those soldiers were leaderless, hesitantly followed behind, and after walking for a while, they felt that something was wrong, and divided two people to report to General Zhang.

When General Zhang heard that Du Yinxi was picked up, he personally rushed to chase all the way, only to find that he had arrived at Liu Chengyin's mansion, and Zhu Yunyu and Du Yinxi had entered Liu's mansion.

"What is this for?!" General Zhang hurriedly arranged soldiers and horses to guard the outside of Liu's mansion tightly, but he was puzzled in his heart, Zhu Yunyu spent so much effort to rescue Du Yinxi from the Yin Hotel, but he took him to the net, and he really couldn't guess what the intention was. Fortunately, people have already entered Liu's Mansion, so they are not afraid that they will fly into the sky, otherwise if they hide secretly, it will take a lot of trouble to find out Plug Yinxi.

After waiting for about an hour, Zhu Yunyu came out of Liu's mansion by himself, and General Zhang hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Lord Wang, which one are you singing today?" Doesn't that make it difficult for the last general? ”

"I'll wait here today, give Liu Shuai an explanation, I won't embarrass you." Zhu Yunyu seemed to have just finished a hard job, with a tired look on his face, he sighed softly, pointed to his guards and said, "But this king still has one more thing to ask for, please ask General Zhang to raise his noble hand, can you let them go home first?" ”

"Well...... okay, please come into the Shuai's Mansion and sit down for a while." General Zhang hesitated slightly, but still nodded, someone in Liu's mansion came out to report the news just now, Du Yinxi was still staying in the back house of the mansion, talking to Liu Chengyin's mother, the situation was still under control, there was no need to be too stiff with Zhu Yunyu.

Zhu Yunyu beckoned to the eunuch, whispered a few words in his ear, the eunuch nodded heavily, turned around and left with the guards, what General Zhang didn't see was that the eunuch turned around, and there were faint tears flashing in his eyes.

Zhu Yunyu watched them go away, and his heart suddenly felt relaxed.

Since the martial law in Yuanling City, Liu Chengyin's intention to surrender to the Manchu Qing Dynasty has become more and more obvious, Zhu Yunyu has been difficult to get out, and the Qing court has always cut the grass and eradicated the members of the Ming royal family, and his whole family could not escape death.

"I have finally done one thing in this life, and I have the face to see my ancestors and ancestors......" Zhu Yunyu is usually a cowardly person and does not have much ability and ambition, but at the moment of life and death when the country is broken and the family is forgotten, he has never had the amazing courage to do a great thing that benefits the country and himself.

Sitting in the side hall of Liu's mansion, Zhu Yunyu waited calmly, waiting to meet Liu Chengyin's anger. (To be continued......)
