Chapter 936: Where do we not meet in life?

"Completely abandon Kunling Pass and the six eastern counties?" Hu Yicai's voice trembled, this is half of the territory of Chu State. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Cheng Wu dared to do this, but he was afraid that he would soon become a sinner in the entire Chu State and become the target of verbal criticism. "If Cheng Shuai leads an army of 30,000 to withdraw, instead of defending Kunling Pass, but retreats to Jinghu, he is afraid that he will ...... in the future."

"This is what Cheng Gong deserves to be admired." Min Ruoxi's face flushed slightly, "The life and death of the country have been realized, how can it be avoided because of misfortune." Cheng Gong will inevitably put aside his personal honor and reputation and retreat to Jinghu, if not, the Chu State will lose more than just the six eastern counties. If the six eastern counties are lost, but they can keep the land south of the Yangtze River, then the Chu State still has enough strength, and if even the south of the Yangtze River is also caught in the flames of war, the Chu State will be ruined. ”

Hu Yicai fell silent, with Cheng Wuben's temperament, he was afraid that he would really do this. At that time, the emperor gave an order, knowing that he was likely to be cut off by the emperor when he came back, but he still returned to Shangjing with a light car.

Although he did not die, he was idle since then, and was even thrown into the war-torn Yue Kingdom for two years, which was called to open up the second battlefield of resistance to Qi. And this veteran, without saying a word, set off with a burden on his back, in two years, he assisted Qin Feng to establish the Ming Kingdom, and was deeply valued by Qin Feng, and at this time, Min Ruoying called, and he returned to Chu without complaint.

If he doesn't come back, he will definitely get a good position in the Ming State, even if the position cannot be higher than the Chu State, but in the Ming Dynasty, he will be respected by the emperor and his subordinates, instead of returning to the Chu State, the emperor is suspicious and his colleagues are excluded.

That's what he is. He has always put the interests of the Chu State first, rather than thinking about his own life and death. At this point, Hu Yicai asked himself if he couldn't do it.

But that doesn't stop him from helping him without endangering himself. I'm afraid this is also the reason why Princess Zhaohua is here, since Princess Zhaohua expects that Cheng Wuben will inevitably use Jinghu as a base to build a defense line, then what he wants to do is clear at a glance.

"What does Her Royal Highness the Princess want Weichen to do?" Hu Yicai asked.

"Jinghu County was originally the hinterland of Great Chu, the city outline was not strong, the troops were insufficient, and the grain and grass were not continued." Princess Zhaohua said.

"Your Royal Highness, Quanzhou is still rich, the ministers can do their best to support Jinghu money and grain, in addition to the county government, will also call on all the gentry and people in the county to donate, and the grain can also do their best to support Jinghu, but the soldiers, Weichen can not be transferred at will, Quanzhou has two soldiers and horses, a water division, and another garrison, but they are all directly ordered by the imperial court, as for the county soldiers, there are not many of them, I am afraid that it will not work but will cause chaos." Hu Yicai said.

"The sooner the better, and the sailor must be transferred to Jinghu." Princess Zhaohua is categorical. "Jinghu County does not have a strong city, but there are many rivers and lakes, which is the most suitable for the water division to fight, if the Qi army attacks Jinghu, they cannot carry the boat from the land to Jinghu, with the water division, Jinghu County can be a battlefield everywhere, and the Qi army can only passively respond to the battle, and the initiative is all in my Dachu, which is also the reason why Cheng Shuai chose Jinghu."

"But Weichen didn't have the authority to transfer the water master! And Your Highness, the sailor is only afraid of being able to fight! Hu Yicai hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, the sailor of Da Chu was basically in chaos.

"They can't fight, can't they be transporters? Let them go to the coolies. Princess Zhaohua sneered: "As for the mobilization of the sailors, you just have to do it, this palace is about to go to Beijing, and this palace is your master, I think who dares to embarrass you?" ”

"Your Highness, you are the Empress of Daming!" Hu Yicai smiled bitterly. If the princess in front of her is just Princess Zhaohua of Da Chu, then it's okay to say, but with another identity, she can mobilize Da Chu's army at will, and she can't afford this pot herself.

"Don't forget Hu Yicai, the Queen Mother is still here!" Min Ruoxi said sharply. "If this palace can't be the master for you, then the queen mother can't do it?" Hu Yicai is a radical.

"Do you want to be a puppet in your Quanzhou Mansion, or do you want to fight and be a savior, you should weigh it yourself?" Min Ruoxi snorted coldly: "The second brother said that he is not Mingjun, but he is not a fool, what you have done, whether it is good or bad for him, loyalty or treachery, he still knows clearly." ”

Hu Yicai took a deep breath, knowing that if he didn't do it, he was afraid that the day Princess Zhaohua arrived in Beijing would be the time when he lost his official position and resigned, and just now, the princess's words ruthlessly revealed his old background, obviously Her Royal Highness the princess knows the situation in Quanzhou clearly.

Also, Zhou Li is now the general of the Ming Dynasty, and with Zhou Li here, what can Quanzhou hide from the princess.

"Since Her Royal Highness the princess is willing to endorse this matter, then Weichen will also fight, food, silver, sailors, Weichen is fighting for this old life, and he also wants to meet the supply of Jinghu, Your Highness, will Cheng Shuai really go to Jinghu?" Hu Yicai said.

"It must be so, this is the only way for Chu to save itself, Cheng Shuai has become a country, and he has been in charge of the army for many years, how can he not see the truth of this reality?" Min Ruoxi said indifferently: "You just have to go through the newspaper and look at Cheng Shuai's retreat route, and you should know what Cheng Shuai means!" ”

Hu Yicai nodded.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, you want to go to Beijing, and then take a boat faster, but your boat can't afford to open the inland river, so you can only change boats in Quanzhou, and please ask Your Highness to rest in Quanzhou Post House for a few days, and wait for Weichen to prepare ships and guards for you."

"It's okay, but it must be fast, I'll stay in Quanzhou for a day. You have to go the day after tomorrow. You just need to prepare the boat, as for the other sailors or anything, you don't need it, Zhou Li will arrange it, by the way, don't want the sailors' boats, you go to the Ning family and ask me for a fast boat. Min Ruoxi said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Hu Yicai bowed down and responded: "The subordinate officials of Quanzhou are all there, and there are also Quanzhou gentry headed by Ning Zhiwen, do your Highness want to see them?" ”

Min Ruoxi thought for a while, "It's gone today, and the palace is really tired." Rest for a day, and tomorrow evening, at your palace, I will feast these gentry, don't you want to ask them to raise money? I'll sit on the table for you. ”

"That's a good idea!" Hu Yicai was overjoyed, and Princess Zhaohua came forward, and this face was always much bigger than himself. "Then please move to the inn of the princess!"

Min Ruoxi is indeed tired, she has never been on a boat for so long, although the boat is big, but it can't withstand the wind and waves at sea, even if there is no big wind and waves at this season, but even if it is the usual small wind and waves, it is enough for her to endure it, if it weren't for her martial arts cultivation spirit, she would have been unable to hold it down for a long time.

I think that Huo Guang, as the master of the sect, followed Zhou Li in the storm for a while, and when he came back, he vomited all over the place. Until she arrived at the inn, she still felt her feet drifting, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she thought she was still in bed.

After entering the post house, the first thing is to climb into bed and go to sleep, as for Aunt Ying, the situation is similar to Min Ruoxi, but it is just a bitter father-in-law, even if the feet are fluttering, what you dare to do, you still have to do it. As for those guards, they are used to it, after all, they have been drifting on the sea with the emperor for more than a month, and after seeing the terrifying wind and waves, this journey can be described as smooth sailing.

The guards of the post house were naturally taken over by the Ming soldiers, and the irrelevant people of the post house were all driven out by Grandpa Le, and even the cooks were brought over from the Taiping ship.

And His Majesty asked him to come with the queen mother, didn't he let him worry about these things? Although Yinggu's martial arts are high, she is an excellent personal bodyguard, but when it comes to these subtleties, he is still handy.

Min Ruoxi slept very sweetly this night, and was not woken up by Aunt Ying until midnight.

Sitting up from the bed and looking out the window that it was still dark, Min Ruoxi couldn't help but be surprised.

"Aunt Ying, what's wrong?" There is nothing special, Aunt Ying will definitely not wake her up at this time.

"Niangniang, just now Fan Ying found Grandpa Le, Grandpa Le went to find me again, Fan Ying brought a person, there is an emergency to return to the princess." Ying Gu said in a low voice.

Min Ruoxi immediately became completely sleepy, Fan Ying was a commander of the Eagle's Nest, and this time he came with Min Ruoxi, to use him to contact the Eagle's Nest spies in the Chu Realm, for Min Ruoxi's use. The person he brought was naturally the Eagle's Nest spy in Quanzhou.

"Let Fan Ying bring people in." Min Ruoxi said.

A man with a dark face and a little watery smell on his body, hanging his hands, walked in behind Fan Ying, Min Ruoxi just glanced at it, and knew that this person must be a person who is begging for a living on the water. The smell on his body is similar to Zhou Li.

"Luo Yang, the subordinate Eagle's Nest Foreign Affairs Division, Chu State, Quanzhou Branch, has seen the queen mother!" As soon as the man entered the door, he immediately fell to the ground.

"Get up, no need to be polite." Min Ruoxi waved her hand, "What is your current identity?" ”

"Hui Niangniang, my subordinates are now working under the Ning family's eldest son Ning." Luo Yang Dao.

"You came late at night, what's the emergency?" Min Ruoxi asked, this Luo Yang is here, maybe he will leak his identity, then the gains outweigh the losses, after all, the next thing Qin Feng has to deal with is the eldest son of the Ning family, in order to help the second son Ning Zeyuan control the power of the Ning family, there is a spy by the side of the eldest prince Ning, it must be much more convenient.

"Back to Niangniang, my subordinates inadvertently discovered that Ning Zefeng, the eldest son of the Ning family, was actually in contact with the ghost shadow of the Qi country." Luo Yang said: "After discovering this matter, his subordinates investigated many times, and finally found that the eldest prince hid these people in one of his courtyards, and the person at the head was Xiang Lian, the deputy commander of the ghost shadow. This person has a very high status in the ghosts, and he actually came to Quanzhou to collude with Ning Dagongzi, but he was afraid that the plot was not small, so his subordinates were anxious to see the queen's mother. ”

"Xiang Lian?" Min Ruoxi was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "This is really where you don't meet in life?" ”
