Li Zicheng accepted the news that the Ming Emperor recruited an to become the prince of the Ming Dynasty also spread to Nanjing, on the Hongze Lake in Huai'an Mansion in Nanjing, there was a big dragon boat gliding, the sound of the piano on the dragon boat was melodious, it was a rich and noble gentry who was swimming in the mountains and rivers here, there were three sons and an old man sitting in this dragon boat, each with good looks, rich and noble, elegant manners, and the background of the turmoil in the world at this time was incompatible. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
These three sons and one old man are the fallen princes of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiang, the Fuwang of Luoyang Mansion, Zhu Changshu, the Luwang of Weihui Mansion, Zhu Ciyao, the Chongwang of Runing Mansion, and Zhu Gongfang, the Zhou King of Kaifeng Mansion who is more than 60 years old.
Fu Wang Zhu Yousong showed joy on his face, clapped his hands and said, "Miao Miao Miao! This Li thief finally accepted my Zhao'an, the emperor is really a saint! From now on, we will be a family! I don't have to run for my life anymore! Continue to enjoy the glory and wealth! Hahahaha! Come! Prepare a wine and feast! ”
Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, who was bowing his head and stroking the qin, stopped and admonished worriedly: "Nephew, how can you be so unfilial!" This Li thief is your father-killing enemy! He is also the enemy of this king! Don't forget! Also, don't be happy too early, although Li Thief has accepted Zhao'an, but his soldiers and horses have not withdrawn from our territory, but have set up camp, planning to garrison the army for a long time, and we are still homeless for the royal nobles! ”
King Zhou and King Chong, who fled south together, also nodded yes, with a worried face, since Li Zicheng surrounded the capital, the peasant armies everywhere plundered the city like no one's land, and the Ming generals died and surrendered, so that these pampered princes fled around like rats, frightened, and could not return home.
Fu Wang Zhu Yousong heard Lu Wang Zhu Changshu say this, his face was full of unhappiness, and he defended with a gloomy face: "I said uncle, this Li thief is my father's enemy, yes, I haven't forgotten my nephew, but the time is also fate, you can't let me kill Li Thief for revenge without my own strength, isn't this a sheep into the mouth of a tiger!" Besides, my father doesn't want me to die in vain, right, my father definitely wants me to marry a wife and have children, and my old Zhu family is full of branches, this thing of fighting and killing is a matter of martial artists, and I can wait for the royal nobles to be so unbearable! ”
Listening to the arrogant sophistry of the blessed king Zhu Yousong, the king of Lu Zhu Changshu was disappointed and helpless, and then lowered his head to stroke the qin, the sound of the piano was full of sadness, in the face of the war in the Daming rivers and mountains, it was torn apart, as the descendants of the royal family, it was heartbroken, and now the news of Li Zicheng Zhao'an is also good news, at least don't worry about your own life, thinking of this, Zhu Changshu can't help but feel relaxed, and the sound of the piano is also very pleasant.
Just when the princes were drinking happily, Lu Jiude, the eunuch of the governor Jingying who fled south with the blessed king Zhu Yousong, came in to report the good news and add wine, and the blessed king Zhu Yousong looked at Lu Jiude with drunken eyes and asked: "Little Dezi, how is the news that this king asked you to inquire?" What's next for this king? You can't spend the New Year on a ship. Lu Jiude replied with a smile: "Hehe, how can the minions let the princes spend an auspicious year on the ship, the news that you want the minions to inquire about has already been settled, this Li thief is indeed recruiting, and is stepping up defense in the capital, and the king of Qin is resisting Manyi in the capital, and the momentum is like a rainbow!" Full flood! Unbeatable! That Zhang Xianzhong, the little thief, was also afraid of him, and obediently listened to Li Thief's dispatch of troops into Beijing, but the current emperor did not know where to go, and Li Thief refused to reveal any news about the emperor under the pretext of a great tomorrow. ”
Fu Wang Zhu Yousong squinted his eyes and took a sip of wine and asked, "What did Ma Shiying and Zhang Shenyan say?" Lu Jiude replied: "Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, and Qian Qianyi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, said that according to the law of our dynasty, the four princes should not move to Nanjing Mansion, but the current situation is in crisis, and they have to be adapted, and they will come to welcome the four princes to Nanjing Mansion three days later. After hearing this, Fu Wang Zhu Yousong said proudly: "Hmph...... I forgive them and don't dare to refuse! Little Dezi, you've done a great job this time! Chongwang Zhu Cijiao and Zhou Wang Zhu Gongyu laughed even more, a heart that had been hanging for several days finally let go, and they couldn't stop drinking each other.
Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, said: "You can go to Nanjing, this king has sent Xiao Liangzi to Hangzhou Mansion to set a place to live, and the four vassal kings gathered in Nanjing Mansion, it is inevitable that people have already been handled, thinking that we are plotting to rebel, in case the emperor blames it, it will not be beautiful." The three kings nodded yes, and Zhu Gongyu, the king of Zhou, said hoarsely with a weak face: "Yes, today's saints can't rub sand in their eyes, and the emperor is difficult to commit!" We need to be careful! Otherwise, disaster will come! ”
Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, reminded the three vassal kings again: "The three of them should go to Nanjing Mansion to keep a low profile, not to show off and attract suspicion, to act according to the emperor's will, and immediately allocate grain, grass, and silver to transport the capital without delay." ”
Lu Jiude also said with a solemn expression: "King Lu reminded in time, this Li thief holds the will of the saint in his hand, has arbitrary power, has ordered the closure of the gate outside the Ming Pass, no materials are allowed to enter and leave the customs, in the name of clearing the Manyi traitors in the pass, the Zhangjiakou Shanxi Pushang Eight Masters were uprooted, and a lot of seizures were seized, and now they are killing the eight merchants in the Guan, and the blood of the eight merchants is flowing into a river, making the Ming merchants panic, and everyone is in danger!" ”
Fu Wang Zhu Yousong listened impatiently, pointed at Lu Jiude and scolded: "You dog slave! Don't disturb the king's good mood! The courtesans that this king asked you to find were all brought out to accompany the princes to drink and relieve their boredom! This king can't wait! More on that later! Lu Jiude bent down and smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, return to the prince, the slave has already been done, just wait for the prince to nod your head." After speaking, he clapped his hands three times.
After Lu Jiude's three applause, dozens of delicate Jiangnan courtesans who were waiting outside the door rushed in, and the laughter of the warblers was fragrant, and they sat on the laps of the princes and raised their glasses to persuade, and the blessed king Zhu Yousong drooled at this time, and pulled the two beauties into his arms and groped around, quite happy.
Luwang Zhu Changshu pushed away the beauty sitting on his lap, frowned and shook his head and left, Fu Wang Zhu Yousong scolded with a smile: "Fake serious!" Come! The lady came to the master's place, and gave the master a leather cup! ”
Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, came out to breathe in the bow of the boat, listening to the laughter of the princes in the boat, the courtesans screamed and coquettish, shook their heads secretly and sighed: "What time is it!" And have fun! How can Da Ming not die! ”
