It was already evening, Xiao Mu announced that he would talk about it today, and then sent Wang Chengen to send Zhou Yanru out of the palace, Zhou Yanru saluted, and followed Wang Chengen to withdraw. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"At the current rate, if you want to finish reading the "Zizhi Tongjian", even if you just have a general understanding of it, why will it take a month or two? This history book is so thick and long, I don't know if the original Chongzhen Emperor in history has read all of them. But with so much content, I'm afraid there are millions of words, right? This is still classical Chinese, and if it is translated into vernacular, it is estimated that it is equivalent to tens of millions of words of books in the later world. With so much content, no matter how easy it is to learn, Emperor Chongzhen can't memorize it all, right? The content I have read in the past two days can be recited proficiently, presumably because it is the beginning of the book, the original historical Emperor Chongzhen naturally read it very seriously, as for the content behind, Emperor Chongzhen probably did not read it so carefully, so I am afraid it will not be so easy to read......"

Xiao Mu thought in his heart, and at the same time still felt that the existing reading speed was a little slow, after all, he was also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it was impossible to leave all the government affairs to the courtiers all the time to do and concentrate on reading, if the situation continued to develop according to the trajectory of history, sooner or later, there would be countless troubles waiting for him to deal with, and this day would not be long before it came.

"The more Emperor Chongzhen in history memorized, the sooner I could finish reading this book." Xiao Mu thought of the crux of the matter, so he immediately turned the "Zizhi Tongjian" to the back part, planning to find some random passages to read and see if the original Emperor Chongzhen had studied it carefully.

Flipping through the historical content of some different dynasties, Xiao Mu found that as he thought, there were many contents that he had read and had no effect at all, not to mention completely memorizing them, and it was a little difficult to even recall the outline of the content, if according to the explanation of the "Lin hypothesis" proposed by Lin Yi, it must be because these are the contents that Emperor Chongzhen had not read or had not read carefully; On the contrary, there are some contents, his "golden finger" can play a role, after reading it, you can easily remember it, Xiao Mu found that such content is often some key periods in history, such as "Guangwu Zhongxing", "Anshi Rebellion", "Jingkang Difficulty", etc., among them, Xiao Mu can clearly feel that the content of Emperor Guangwu's Zhongxing Han Dynasty is the fastest and most firmly remembered - it is obvious that Emperor Chongzhen has long been aware of the severity of the situation in the Ming Dynasty, At the same time, he hopes that he himself can rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty like Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu and the Han Dynasty, and has been trying to find a way to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty.

"It's a pity that Emperor Chongzhen worked so hard, but in the end he didn't get any good rewards." At first, Xiao Mu only looked at this history from the perspective of a bystander. Even if you think about the problem from the perspective of the Ming Dynasty after crossing over, to a large extent, it is because you are the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so you have to find a way to continue the Ming Dynasty's qi. But now Xiao Mu found that he seemed to be able to appreciate Emperor Chongzhen's perseverance and efforts, and began to feel sympathy and regret for what happened to him, and at the same time felt a little sad for such a regrettable ending in the original history.

With this regretful mood, Xiao Mu didn't have much appetite, and he just used a little bit of dinner and put down the chopsticks. Wang Chengen watched from the sidelines, and also found that the emperor didn't seem to be in a very good mood, but he didn't know what the reason was, and he couldn't open his mouth to persuade him, so he had to silently worry about the emperor's dragon body in his heart.

Fortunately, at this time, another little eunuch came to pass the word, saying that the queen mother had something to ask the emperor to go to talk about it, which made Wang Chengen relax a little and have a good chat with the queen mother, and the emperor's mood could be restored.

Xiao Mu didn't have anything else to do, so he happily drove to Lin Ye's dormitory.

"What's the matter with me?" After also sending out all the people who were waiting around him, Xiao Mu asked.

"Did you find someone to tell you again in the afternoon?" Lin Yi asked.

"Yes, "Zizhi Tongjian" is too long, I don't know when I will finish reading it like this, and I found that not all the content can be memorized, according to you, and a lot of the content was not carefully studied by the original Emperor Chongzhen." Xiao Mu told Lin Yi about his discovery.

"Let Qian Qianyi paint in the morning, and find him to talk about books in the afternoon, aren't you afraid of tiring others?" Lin asked playfully.

"No, no, I also thought of this, so this time I was looking for Zhou Yanru, have you heard of Zhou Yanru? This is a bull man who has two dollars in a row. Xiao Mu took out the newly learned "Lianzhong Two Yuan" and showed it off.

Last time, Lin Yi knew a lot about Qian Qianyi, and Xiao Mu felt that Lin Ye must have heard of Zhou Yanru.

……

At this time, the atmosphere in Daxing Prison was very depressing.

Two days ago, after Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao sent Liang Yanyang's confession and Du Laoliu's nonsense to Beijing, they began to wonder what arrangements Lord Luo Yangxing and the emperor would have.

Although they are also worried that they will be reprimanded from above, the two of them are still more inclined to think that things are not so bad - even if they don't pry Du Laoliu's mouth open, their faces are a little unpleasant, after all, they have also tried Liang Yanyang's huge family property, and they have no merit and hard work, so they will not be reprimanded too harshly.

Moreover, they also thought of a deeper level: since the two were not able to get Du Lao Liu to confess, then Jingli was bound to send capable people to help them, or to send capable people to lead them and interrogate Du Lao Liu together. In this way, whatever the outcome of the final interrogation is, it will be good for both of them.

If the person sent above has superb means and makes that Du Laoliu confess honestly, then of course this person is the first credit, in this case, Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao, as the personnel who handled the case together, will definitely not be unable to get anything, how can they get a little credit.

On the contrary, if the "capable man" sent above can't help Du Lao Liu, it means that it is not that the two of us are incompetent, but that the thief is too cunning, and the bigger the person sent above, the more powerful Du Lao Liu will be, in this way, people will remember that the "capable man" is actually incompetent, so the more "capable people" the better, so that no one will think that Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao are incompetent, after all, so many "capable people" are all incompetent. And the bigger this newcomer is, the more famous he is, to use the most extreme analogy, if the commander of Jinyiwei makes Lord Luo come in person, and he is also deflated in front of Du Lao Liu, then the level of the two of them is at least on par with Lord Luo, of course, this is just what they think casually, how can the commander make Lord Luo come in person if he is so busy with official business?

With such thoughts, Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao invariably gave up continuing to interrogate Du Lao Liu, first, to give the seriously injured Du Lao Liu a time to recover, so that he could continue to be tortured in the future and not die, and secondly, they also wanted to wait for the final arrangements in Beijing to see which "capable person" would be sent over.

The two waited until the evening of the same day, until they waited for a heavyweight to come to Daxing, and brought them extremely heavy news - Liang Yanyang's whole family was killed, only the youngest son survived, and all the dirty wealth hidden in the capital was gone, and then the emperor sent Lord Luo Yangxing to personally bring people to interrogate Du Lao Liu, and the result of the trial must be found within three days.

"What? Liang Yanyang's whole family was poisoned? All the dirty silver is gone? Zhang Chao couldn't believe the reality he heard, and asked in shock.

"Yes, Liang Yanyang's family also has the same character as Du Laoliu, who is the hand of that person." Luo Yangxing replied.

"It's hard to prevent. Fortunately, Liang Yanyang's son saved his life, and it was not in vain that he desperately pleaded for mercy before he confessed. If it is true, there is a providence in the dark. Luo Zhenxing took over the conversation and sighed.

"Okay, I don't have time to worry about others, the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, and this afternoon he ordered me to wait for the results to be judged within three days, and more than three hours have passed now. Where is that Du Lao Liu? Take me to meet him quickly. ”

"Yes!" Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao immediately agreed, and then took Luo Yangxing to the prison where Du Lao Liu was held.

"What I brought are all the elite soldiers and strong generals in the Jinyi Guard, this time I must give our Jinyi Guard a fight, do this errand beautifully, go back happily to receive the reward, and also help the emperor share more worries." Luo Yangxing said while walking with his subordinates cheered up.

"Lord Luo personally went out, and he must be able to catch it!" Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao also think that it is not a big problem, after all, Luo Yangxing, the biggest star player in the brocade guard, plays in person, no matter how powerful Du Laoliu is, can there still be a commander to make the adult powerful?

The subordinates brought by Luo Yangxing were all in high morale, and they all geared up, saying that they would give Du Laoliu a dismissal, and they couldn't let him be as arrogant as last night, and there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in their words about Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao - if it weren't for the incompetence of the two of you, why did you have to labor to command the adults to come in person?

The two of them naturally felt unhappy in their hearts, but who let their errand not be done well? So it's not easy to have a seizure at this time, so I can only endure it silently, so much so that I even have the idea of asking Du Lao Liu to give them a dismount in turn, so that these guys who don't have backache when they stand and talk know that our two brothers are not straw bales.

So that night, Luo Yangxing led people to interrogate Du Lao Liu overnight, and Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao watched from the sidelines, and explained to them the interrogation last night from time to time - this was probably when Xiao Mu was in Lin Yi's dormitory, listening to her tell such allusions as "the water is too cold" and "the head is too itchy".

Although everyone was very confident, and at the same time, they were all ready to fight a tough battle, but as expected by Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao, Luo Yanghe and his subordinates still underestimated Du Laoliu's strength, and no one could have imagined that Du Laoliu would be such a difficult and ruthless character - except for Luo Zhenxing and Zhang Chao, who had already learned the night before.
