Chapter 206: The Dream of Heaven The first is to ask for a monthly pass
Today is the fourth watch, and Luo Luo will be tired to death if he explodes again. However, Luo Luo still asked for a monthly pass, no way, the competition is too fierce, and soon a little Luo Luo will be born, Luo Luo still has to make milk powder money, don't ask for it. Ladies and gentlemen, is there a monthly pass that can be given to Rolls-Royce?
Just when Zhu Jishi was planning to conquer Guangdong, on the mighty river of the Xijiang River, a large wooden boat of Yi'an was slowly going upstream. The weather is cool and sunny, the wind and waves on the Xijiang River are calm, and the wooden boats squeeze through the rivers and mountains and advance leisurely.
Ngee An Xing is the head of the Xijiang Boat Gang, and it is also the background of the Heaven and Earth Society, called Ngee An Hall, which is a fairly old mountain hall. I have long lost interest in the cause of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, but I dominate the Xijiang water transportation to eat a good meal. Of course, Ngee On Hall is Hung Family Shan Hall after all, and it still maintains a respect for Daming Shan and Zhu Ming Zhengshuo, who have recently risen in Hong Kong. The owner of Ngee Ann Hall also secretly went to Hong Kong to visit Zhu Jishi, saying that the Xijiang Boat Gang could contribute to the great cause of restoring vision. This was originally just talk, but who knew that Zhu Jishizhen sent an errand down to ask Yi'an Tang to escort Hong Renji to Yong'an Prefecture, Guangxi.
There was a gentle knock on the door of the cabin where Hong Renji was, and Wang Decai, the hall master of Yi'an Hall, came in from outside the door and bowed to Hong Renji, who was wearing a five-grade civil official uniform, "My lord, Jiangkou Town is just ahead." ”
"Oh, got it." Hong Renji put down a copy of Engels's "Taixi Military Strategy" in his hand, and nodded to Wang Decai kindly. Jiangkou Town, Yong'an Prefecture, Guangxi Province is the destination of Master Hong Renji's trip. He, a civil official of the five grades of the Qing Dynasty, was not all impersonated, but spent a lot of white flowers and silver donations. Although it is a donation class, there is also a layer of official skin that can bluff people. This way to Guangxi. It saved a lot of trouble. Green camp checkpoints patrolling along the way. None of them were embarrassed by him. After getting a reward of a few silver dollars, he was happily released, and no one got on the boat to disturb the bookish Hong Governor's Mansion - the word donation class will not be written on his face, and people who don't know still think that this master is a righteous official from the top three, who wants to provoke?
Hong Renji stood up, walked out of the cabin with Wang Decai, stood on the bow of the ship and looked west, the wharf of Jiangkou Town was already in sight.
I wonder how the career of the Worship of God has been? Hong Renji's brows gradually twisted, and a trace of worry appeared on his face.
He was one of the first few participants in Hong Xiuquan's career. The book "Advice to the World", which made Hong Xiuquan fall into a state of semi-madness, was brought back to Hong Xiuquan from Hong Kong. For this ambitious brother, Hong Renji is both admired and worried. What I admire is that the God worship club founded by Hong Xiuquan is shili Rida, and he also has a unique vision to climb the high branch of Zhu Jishi. With Hong Xuanjiao's current degree of favor in Zhu Jishi's house, the wealth of the Hong family is already expected.
But for Hong Xiuquan's ambition, this Hong Renji has an indescribable worry. The Hong family followed Zhu Jishi early, and there was Shili from the God Worship Association, and he also offered Hong Xuanjiao, a little goblin, to marry Zhu Jishi. In the future, he will be a relative, and he will enjoy endless wealth and glory. But Hong Xiuquan was not satisfied, and always refused to take the backbone elite of the God Worship Society to Hong Kong for refuge. also kept asking Zhu Jishi for money and guns to expand his strength, this thought Zhu Jishi couldn't see?
"Sir. The ship is about to dock, so be careful. ”
Wang Decai's words fell, and the wooden boat had already landed firmly on the dock in Jiangkou Town. This is only a few dozen miles away from Jintian Village, Hong Xiuquan's current base camp, and it has long been the territory of the God Worship Society. In the past year or so, the Worship of God Society has successively obtained a lot of gold, silver and foreign guns from Zhu Jishi, so it has developed rapidly. The number of believers has already exceeded 20,000! Even the governor of Yong'an Prefecture was bought by Hong Xiuquan, and he turned a blind eye to the development of the God Worship Society - now the attention of the Liangguang government has been attracted by Zhu Jishi, as long as it is not against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, it is not in the eyes of the court officials to accumulate some gold and silver. Moreover, Guangxi has always been the focus of the anti-thief activities of the Heaven and Earth Society, and there are so many strongmen who occupy the mountains as kings under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty that they are going to die, and the green battalion soldiers in Guangxi are tired and can't even break their legs, so who cares about the cult?
"Someone who came is a brother of Qianyi? I'm looking forward to you! ”
Hong Renji was busy directing the servants to move the heavy wooden boxes off the ship, when he heard someone calling him by his nickname, and when he looked back, it turned out that Feng Yunshan was walking briskly with a few people. This Feng Yunshan is now dressed like a gentry in the township, wearing a well-made gown and horse coat, wearing a melon skin hat, and the hat town is a mutton fat white jade. This outfit can't be taken without a few dozen silver dollars, and it seems that Zhu Jishi's money has allowed these leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to live a prosperous life in advance.
……
"Brother Qianyi, is it true that the rumor that Ji Shijun wiped out the Guangdong Naval Division?"
"Brother Qianyi, how many people are there in the Jishi Army? Is it really as the "Tessie Soldiers" says that they are trained every day? ”
"Brother Qianyi, when will this Jishi Army attack Guangdong? Will you go directly across the sea to hit Beijing City? ”
Hong Renji had only settled down in the most luxurious house in Jiangkou Town, and he gave a group of backbones of the Worship of God to endlessly. These famous figures in history are now the same as Hong Renji, and they seem to have some gains and losses.
Zhu Jishi's rebellion seems to have developed beyond their expectations, and the situation in Guangdong is already on the verge of chaos, and it may not be long before the Zhu family is in the world! When the time comes, what will be the place to go when the worship of God will go? If they are like-minded, what status can the big guy get? If you don't partner with Zhu Jishi...... Does the worship of God have the strength to go it alone?
"Brother Qianyi has come from afar, let's rest in peace today, and if you have anything to say, I'll talk to you tomorrow." On the first seat, Hong Xiuquan, who was dressed as an outsider, spoke at this time and sent away the backbone of the meeting, leaving only Feng Yunshan and Hong Renji and the one-eyed dragon Yang Xiuqing and other three.
"Brother Renkun, if you can raise the crowd to make it clear, the marquis is certain." Hong Renji took out the letters between Zhu Jishi and Hong Xuanjiao, and handed them to Hong Xiuquan with both hands.
"Brother Shaoguang (Feng Yunshan), what do you think?" Hong Xiuquan opened Hong Xuanjiao's letter and watched it, and asked Feng Yunshan beside him with a smile.
"It's good to be a marquis." Feng Yunshan looked at Hong Xiuquan and smiled, "What did Xuanjiao's sister say in her letter?" ”
"Hmph, the female university is not staying!" Hong Xiuquan sneered, "It's almost time to praise Zhu Jishi to the sky...... I really treat him as a real man! ”
"Brother Renkun, what do you mean...... We don't vote for Daming? Hong Renji was stunned when he heard this, and looked up at Hong Xiuquan.
"Weishenme wants to vote for Ming? I am the King of men, and this is the will of my Heavenly Father! No matter how much Zhu Jishi makes trouble, he can't escape the life of a stepping stone! Hong Xiuquan said lightly, "This Hou, it will be sealed by me in the future." ”
"Brother, Ming Gong has strong soldiers!" Hong Renji muttered.
"But he has no ambitions, his eyes are only staring at two corners of the country, and he will be the life of a small court in the Southern Ming Dynasty in the future!"
The one who spoke was Yang Xiuqing, who had one eye and a bright light, he was originally the third person in the God Worship Society, but when Hong Xiuquan and Feng Yunshan went to Hong Kong to visit Zhu Jishi a while ago, they played God possession, so now they are the second in command of the God Worship Society.
He sneered: "The center of the world is not in Liangguang, even if it is occupied by Zhu Jishi, it will not be able to kill the Manchus." If I were Zhu Jishi, I would build more warships, and then hang up the sails and go north to fight Yanjing. ”
"Ming Gong is indeed acting more seriously." Hong Renji nodded.
"This is our chance!" Yang Xiuqing's face showed excitement.
"At present, the attention of the officials and troops is attracted by the Jishi army, if the Guangzhou Mansion is really attacked by Zhu Jishi, Guangxi is afraid that the standard and Fubiao will also be transferred to Guangdong. When the time comes, Yong'an Prefecture will be empty, and you won't let us act? Now that we have 20,000 followers, no less than 200,000 yuan of silver and more than 1,000 foreign guns, why worry about not being able to accomplish a big deal? ”
"Brother Yang is right, our opportunity is here!" Hong Xiuquan clapped his hands.
Yang Xiuqing daxiao said: "Let Zhu Jishi go to Guangdong with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, we will lead the troops to the north, expand the team along the way, do not occupy the city and seize the land, cross the river as soon as possible, take Henan as home first, and then rectify the soldiers and horses, take Yanjing in the north, seize the Manchu Dynasty, and set up my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!" ”
Hearing Yang Xiuqing's words, and then looking at Hong Xiuquan's approving expression, Hong Renji could only sigh in his heart, this worship of God and the Ming Dynasty, there is really no way to come together! In fact, this matter has long been expected, because Hong Xiuquan has always regarded himself as the "king of people" and the "second son of God" among the members of the Guangxi sect! And not only Hong Xiuquan is the second son of God, but even Feng Yunshan, Yang Xiuqing, Xiao Chaogui, Wei Changhui and other backbone members of the God worship Association are all the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth sons of God's old man...... If these immortals really cast themselves under Zhu Jishi, how would they arrange for Zhu Jishi to be a secular monarch? (To be continued......)
