659, a piece of sail out of the stone (3)
Xia Wanchun was confused, and Xia Yunyi was also confused.
The only thing that is not confused is that he knows that Yu Guozhen really did not lie to him.
At the beginning, when Donglin was watching in Jianghuai, when the Guanning army was patrolling Jizhen, and when the eunuchs were high and abandoned the army and fled, only Yu Guozhen, a warrior who was scolded by them behind his back as a national thief, sent an army to go deep into the siege of the army, and rescued Chongzhen, who was already desperate and helpless, in the Beijing Division.
But at the same time, Yu Guozhen put Chongzhen under house arrest here - whether this behavior is loyal or treacherous, Xia Yunyi can't answer for a while.
"Your Majesty all these years...... Have you ever suffered? He asked tentatively.
"What do you suffer, I'm fatter here than when I was in the palace." Chongzhen looked at Xia Wanchun, and then looked back at Kun Xing: "Ling Lang has ever been married?" ”
Kun Xing hung his head silently, turned around and left, which was a relatively rude behavior in the royal family, but when she heard Xia Yunyi say that Xia Wanchun was married and had a daughter, she immediately stopped, couldn't hide the joy on her eyebrows, and stared at Chongzhen.
Chongzhen had nothing to do with her.
"Your Majesty, Yu Jimin treats Your Majesty...... Is there an eye or ears for him? Xia Yunyi asked in a low voice.
"What do he want, if I want to leave this island, I have to take a boat, as long as he guards the dock, I can't get out, and ...... I don't want to leave for the time being, but I've finally enjoyed a few years of happiness, why do I want to go? ”
Although Chongzhen said this, the amazement in his expression still fell into Xia Yunyi's eyes.
"The minister will definitely find a way to rescue His Majesty!" Xia Yunyi said in a low voice: "Minister, this is ......."
"Forget it, forget it. Don't worry about this, Mr. Shen and Mr. Yan were all in the same mind as you at the beginning, but after living here with me for a few years, everyone will understand, if you have any ideas, it is better to tell Yu Guozhen in a dignified manner. ”
Chongzhen said lightly. But in fact, he has only recently figured out this problem.
In order to regain the power that he considered his own, he did not miss the eyes of his heart. How to coax Yu Guozhen to let him go back to land. In the past four years, almost every time he met Yu Guozhen, he had to test and test again. But when it was learned from the newspaper, the Huaxia Army wiped out Niu Jinxing's gang entrenched in the Central Plains in only twenty days. Chongzhen knew that his previous attachment was too ridiculous.
Even if he returns to the mainland, what can he do, not to mention that he has to regain the position of the Son of Heaven from Zhu Yousong, the blessed king of Jinling, even if he is in power, can he defeat Yu Guozhen's Huaxia army?
At this time, even if Chongzhen wanted to restore the Ming Dynasty, he knew that it would be impossible in a short period of time, unless, he could find a way to compete with Yu Guozhen.
Again, this is a completely impossible task for him.
"Mr. Shen? Mr. Yan? Xia Yunyi was stunned: "Who are these two?" ”
"Oh. Mr. Shen is the former governor of Liangguang, Shen Youlong, and Mr. Yan is Yan Yingyuan, but he is a talented person, but unfortunately I don't know anyone, so I couldn't be selected earlier. If he had guarded the capital, Li Zicheng would not have been able to enter the city at all. ”
Speaking of this, Chongzhen glanced back at the back, and then shouted: "Cihong, Cihong!" ”
"Hey, what is my father's will?" A young man's head protruded from the room.
"Go and invite Mr. Shen and Mr. Yan. Invite them to dinner with us today, and in addition, let Wang Daban go to the street to buy some fresh vegetables, let's entertain Mr. Xia, it is rare to have guests. ”
Zhu Cihong answered and ran out, his movements were fast, and he seemed to be in good health. Xia Yunyi was startled when he saw him running so fast: "Your Majesty, this ...... This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
"Well, this is the prince, and the naughty girl on the side is Kunxing, my eldest princess."
Kun Xing blessed Xia Yunyi, and said softly: "I've seen Mr. Xia." ”
Xia Yunyi dared to accept her salute, and hurriedly avoided it: "The minister greets Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Your Highness is safe!" ”
"Alas, this is not the Forbidden City, so there is no need to be so polite." Chongzhen pulled him inward: "Let's talk, where are you from here?" ”
After learning that Xia Yunyi had been ordered by Ma Shiying and Qian Qianyi to discuss the five-year reunification plan with Yu Guozhen, Chongzhen shook his head and sighed.
"Although the minister came to see Yu Guozhen on the orders of Ma and Qian, since Your Majesty is here, everything should be decided by Your Majesty." Xia Yunyi gritted his teeth and whispered: "Your Majesty is the only one!" ”
"Me?" Chongzhen looked at Xia Yunyi deeply, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
He didn't want to be the king of the dead country, but the gentlemen of Donglin opposed his move south, and they stopped and watched, forcing him to be the king of the dead country. Now this situation is hopeless, Xia Yunyi may be loyal, but the result of this loyalty is to make him the king of the country again.
Chongzhen suddenly felt that he somewhat understood why Yu Guozhen would let Xia Yunyi come to see him. People like Xia Yunyi, who are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, are unwilling to give up even to such a point, and Yu Guozhen doesn't want to treat them too much, so he sent them to himself.
He could only smile bitterly: It seems that he has long been used by Yu Guozhen.
"This matter is the matter of King Fu of Jinling, and it has nothing to do with me." It took Chongzhen a long time to say this sentence with difficulty.
"Your Majesty!"
"I have not lost the country, and I almost became the king of the country once in Beijing, if you are truly loyal to me, don't put this burden on me again...... Ah, Mr. Shen is here! ”
Without waiting for Xia Yunyi to say anything, Chongzhen saw that Shen Youlong's figure had appeared in front of the hospital, so he changed the topic.
For Xia Yunyi, the next few days were really uncomfortable for him. Although he tried to persuade Chongzhen to "cheer up" many times, the result was only disappointment, and he once pinned his hopes on Chongzhen's prince, what he didn't expect was that he thought he would hate Yu Guozhen's prince, but he respected Yu Guozhen.
Even this respect is to the point of worship!
Occasionally, the title of Yu Guozhen in the prince's mouth is not Yu Guozhen, Yu Jimin or Nanhaibo, but "commander"!
What does this mean?
It means that the heirs of the Ming Dynasty unconsciously regard Yu Guozhen as their commander.
What made Xia Yunyi cry and laugh even more was that Zhu Cihong's greatest wish was not to return to the mainland to ascend the throne and become emperor, but to ...... Become a general in the Huaxia Army to expand the territory!
"But my father also said, I don't want to think about it, commander...... Well, Brother Jimin won't be suspicious of me, and if I really want to join the army, he will definitely agree. But the people below are all trying to figure out what they want, and some villains think that Brother Jimin asked me to go to the army to die, who let me be from the royal family, alas, Cungu, I really envy you, you don't have to worry about such a thing. ”
"Uh...... The Huaxia Army expanded its territory and raised its prestige in foreign areas, which is indeed desirable, but His Highness ......"
"But it doesn't matter, Jimin's brother also told me that serving the country is not just a way to join the army, making guns used by front-line soldiers, inventing machinery to make guns and vehicles, these are all for the country. I have now transferred to Yicheng Secondary School, I am quite talented in physics, Brother Jimin once said that although the emperor is not a good emperor, but he is a good carpenter, if he goes to learn physics, he will be able to benefit endlessly, I think, I always have some talent of the emperor......
"But, Your Highness......"
Xia Wanchun and Zhu Cihong are close in age, and the two naturally talked about going together, but when they heard Zhu Cihong's life plans and ideals, Xia Wanchun was also directly speechless.
However, the villa owned by Chongzhen is not bad, and they are quite comfortable to live here.
Three days later, Yu Guozhen really came to see Chongzhen, seeing that Kun Xing personally brought pastries to Yu Guozhen, and she took a small bite of each of them first, Yu Guozhen was not afraid to take the pastries that Kun Xing had eaten, and praised the taste a few words, Xia Yunyi was stunned, and she didn't know what to say.
This is the eldest princess of the Great Ming Dynasty......
"It's all done by Kunxing himself, you know it, it's not that he has no conscience." Chongzhen's words made Xia Yunyi feel even more that the festival was all over the place, and his eyes when he looked at Yu Guozhen were also a little different.
Could it be ...... This wants to be Li Shimin and marry the princess of the previous dynasty as a concubine?
If so, it's okay, at least...... The lives of Chongzhen's father and son should be preserved, and the dynasty is orthodox and will not become extinct......
These random thoughts, after Yu Guozhen mentioned the matter, suddenly collapsed.
"Mr. Xia, do you know the truth about the five-year reunification plan now?"
Xia Yunyi came here to fight for Ruan Dacheng, and the purpose was this five-year reunification plan, and he must strive for the interests of the small court of Jinling instead of Zhu Yousong, the king of fortune, as much as possible. At first, Xia Yunyi still wanted to work hard so that the Zhu Ming Dynasty could be continued, even if it was only a nominal continuation, but now, he was at a loss.
With Chongzhen here, is it still necessary for him to fight for Zhu Yousong?
Chongzhen himself as for Yu Guozhen to replace him, he didn't want to intervene on the grounds that he didn't want to be the king of the second country, so what could he do?
"The general trend of the world will be together for a long time." Xia Yunyi hadn't said anything yet, and Yan Yingyuan next to him interjected: "Five years of unification, with the strength of the Huaxia Army, it is actually nothing, at least for Jinling, enough buffer time has been given." Three months to destroy Jianyu, twenty days to level the Central Plains - Jinling is not far from the sea, and the warships of the Huaxia Army can sail to the city at any time...... Five years, that's really loose. ”
Yan Yingyuan's words made Xia Yunyi turn his attention to Shen Youlong for help.
Shen Youlong's face was ashamed, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "I have been the governor of Liangguang for several years, and after I arrived in Tamluo, I walked around and took a look, and I felt that Yu Jimin's good governance was far beyond my reach. The princes of Jinling are also inferior, why not let the virtuous? ”
Xia Yunyi is not a stupid person, in the past few days, he has seen that Shen Youlong, Yan Yingyuan and Chongzhen are quite close, to a certain extent, these two people are Chongzhen's cronies, what they said, one is from the military, the other is from the civil affairs to explain that Yu Guozhen's annexation of the Jinling small court is inevitable!
And that's definitely not what the two of them meant, it should be...... The meaning of Chongzhen! (To be continued)
