237 Night Terrors

Just when the war was restarting in Henan and the war was coming, there was also a wave secretly happening in the rich land of Jiangnan.

In the city of Nanjing, in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, although it is late at night, the lights in the study have not been extinguished, and Lu Daqi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, is still dealing with official business without sleep and food.

Since Shi Kefa was transferred away by a holy decree of the Hongguang Imperial Court, the entire land of Jiangnan, all things have fallen on Lu Daqi, in terms of literary talent, the land of Jiangnan is better than the north too much, but when it comes to fighting, not to mention that the soldiers in Jiangnan are cannon fodder, but it is also a model of repeated defeats. In addition to this incident, there have been many messages on the street recently, that is, Emperor Hongguang, who is now enthroned in Shaanxi, is not the biological son of the first emperor Chongzhen, but a puppet supported by the powerful minister Shi Lei.

After this message appeared, it spread rapidly in the south of the Yangtze River, not to mention that everyone knows it, but there are also people everywhere to talk about it, especially some so-called celebrities and Qing people, because they are dissatisfied with the Shaanxi court, so after these messages spread, they are even more unscrupulous everywhere to tell that in the face of these people, Lu Daqi is not good to do it directly, otherwise it will be even more impossible to explain clearly.

In addition, after the Manchu court stationed troops in Xuzhou, the pressure on the entire Jiangnan was huge, although there were still Huang Degong and Gao Jie and others leading the troops to garrison, but Lu Daqi did not report any hope at all for these people who seemed to be officers and soldiers on the surface, but were actually like warlords, he still put all his hopes on himself, and during this time he actively organized the army to war, in order to ensure the safety of the land south of the Yangtze River.

"Bang Bang Bang"

At this moment, the door that was originally closed was suddenly knocked on, and the hurried knock was heard. Some reluctantly got up from the bed, and then opened the door, as soon as the door opened, he was pushed to the ground by the person before he could see the appearance of the person who came, and then he saw the person quickly rushing towards the middle of the courtyard. Just when he wanted to shout, he saw the housekeeper who heard the sound and connected with the person, and then saw the housekeeper walking quickly towards the backyard with the person.

When the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion brought the person who broke into the Lu family to Lu Daqi's study. I saw that Lu Daqi, who was originally handling official business, had a surprised look on his face.

The person who came, Lu Daqi, had seen it, although he was not familiar with it, but he knew that this was a person in the court.

"Hey, Lord Zheng, why did you come here, could it be that there is something urgent in Shaanxi?" It was the pillar who once came to Jiangnan to preach the decree, formerly known as Zheng Tianzhu, after coming to Jiangnan. Zhuzi obeyed Shi Lei's order and stayed in Jiangnan. Of course, this will definitely not be known to others, in order to find out the information of Jiangnan.

"Lord Lu, this is the information that the imperial court has just transmitted, the matter is urgent, and the villain won't say much. Please prepare quickly and get out of here, otherwise it will be too late for a while. The pillar said anxiously.

Hearing the pillar's words, it turned out to be the letterhead in his hand. One glance and ten lines quickly read the content of the letter, and then saw that his face became hideous, and he hit the table with a heavy fist, and shouted loudly, "Great rebellion, in this troubled times, these people don't know how to unite as one, fight against foreign enemies, and still fight for power and profit here, they really deserve to be killed, these dog thieves actually dare to act like this, aren't they afraid to let the Tartars take advantage of the weakness and exterminate them all?" ”

Hearing Lu Daqi's words, Zhu Zi opened his mouth and said, "Lord Lu, it's not worth it for you to be angry with this kind of person at all, is it so rare to be angry with this kind of person now?" Like Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui, that is a role model for them, maybe they still wish the Manchu Tartars would come over, and they would be able to mix up a prince! Regarding the situation in the letter, Zhu Zi already knew that it was the news that Huang Degong, Gao Jie and others were plotting to support the succession of Zhu Youxiang, the king of Daifu.

Originally, this matter should have been told to Lu Daqi earlier, but because of the importance of the matter, Zhu Zi had to report this matter to Shi Lei in Shaanxi first, and only after Shi Lei replied did he report to Lu Daqi.

"Lord Zheng, I don't know what the imperial court thinks about this matter, whether it will directly eliminate these people, or whether it is trying to find another way." If Shi Kefa is here now, he will not care what the court thinks, but will definitely solve this matter ********, but Lu Daqi knows that he should listen to the opinion of the court first, and this is also the reason why Shi Lei recalled Shi Kefa to Shaanxi and left Lu Daqi to advocate Jiangnan.

"Lord Lu, what the court means is that since this matter is irretrievable, then we will give it up completely, as long as we try our best to ensure the existence of the power in our hands, after all, there is no strength, and those false names don't matter, they will let them if they want to." Hearing Lu Daqi's words, the pillar opened his mouth to relay Shi Lei's meaning.

As soon as Zhu Zi's words were finished, Lu Daqi was taken aback, and then said, "What, does the imperial court mean to watch them do such a rebellious thing, aren't they afraid that there will be unnecessary troubles in the future?" "It's no wonder that with Lu Daqi's unpredictable nature, he will be so surprised, you must know that in this place where the name is as big as the sky, how many people have died for a false name, such as Fang Xiaoru, just for the reputation of a loyal minister, was killed by ten clans, it can be said that in this world, as long as the people who have a little bit of contact with him have been killed, and now the court knows that someone wants to ascend the throne and become the emperor, but not only did not directly strangle them, but asked to retreat, which is a fantasy in the eyes of people in this era.

Hearing Lu Daqi's words, Zheng Tianzhu was also a little helpless, he didn't know what Shi Lei thought, but as a subordinate, since his boss had an order, he could only obey the order.

In fact, this matter is a little ill-conceived by Shi Lei, Shi Lei, as a descendant, pays the most attention to the actual interests, he knows that only if he has enough interests in his own hands, those false names are not important at all, let alone the emperor, give you a Jade Emperor, are you really the Jade Emperor, besides, Shi Lei is very clear about the nature of the Hongguang Emperor in this history, and he also knows that he will not cause any harm to the Ming regime in Shaanxi at all, That's why he was able to make this decision.

I've had a cold in the past two days, and I have a splitting headache today, that's all, forgive me! (To be continued.) )
