Chapter 11: No One Arrives

Zhu Changyuan arrived in Xiangyang City two days ahead of schedule. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In Xiangyang City, Li Xin and Xiong Wencan had already set up the venue.

The venue was set in the palace of Zhu Yiming, the king of Xiangyang, in Xiangyang City, and a large-scale palace was selected, and then the surrounding buildings were demolished to artificially create a square.

The main hall is surrounded by one hundred and eight steps, covered with a carpet of red silk.

The steps are cleaned cleanly, and there are newly paved floor tiles within a radius of 100 zhang around, which is bright and bright. Except for the original hall in King Xiang's mansion, the rest were rebuilt by Li Xin and others, which took a lot of effort.

Zhu Changyuan entered the main hall in advance and inspected it, and found that the main hall was empty, with nothing but a huge conference table and chairs behind the table.

"Decorate it again, hang more red cloth and banners around it! Oh, and the food and drink during the meeting should be especially well prepared! The microphone and sound system on site should be well tuned to ensure that there are no problems! ā€

"Yes!" In the face of Zhu Changyuan's orders, Li Xin bowed his head and listened quietly, and then immediately sent someone to carry it out.

Zhu Changyuan walked down the steps, did not look back, and said to Li Xin behind him as he walked: "Li Gongzi, you have never followed the widow, but you have made great contributions to the widow, after the widow meets this alliance, are you willing to enter Beijing with me?" ā€

Li Xin understood that Zhu Changyuan's entry into Beijing was probably about to be crowned emperor, and with his current prestige and power, no matter which side of the princes could not compete with him head-on.

As if it had been prepared before, Li Xin said casually: "The king of Yanming is very kind, and his subordinates are grateful, and the minister still hopes to stay in the land of Jingxiang and take responsibility for this north-south railway to the end." ā€

"Huh!"

Zhu Changyuan forgot about this matter, thought about it and said: "You don't have to be like this, I will find someone to be responsible for the railway affairs, otherwise it will be a waste of your talent. ā€

Li Xincheng was terrified. Before he came down the stairs, he knelt down and said, "The prince must not be like this, the minister does not dare to go?" ā€

Zhu Changyuan turned his head and glanced at Li Xin lying on the steps. Stretched out his hand and pulled it up, and said, "Why is that?" ā€

Li Xin arched his hand and said, "The minister will look at the history books. Since the dynasties, regardless of the Qin, Han, Tang and Song dynasties, there is no one as powerful as my Ming Dynasty. The system of leading hundreds of officials in my Ming cabinet is also the most complete system, which can be called perfect in the eyes of the ministers. If the prince becomes a great treasure in the future and then becomes prime minister, he will abandon the original and chase the end! ā€

"Oh!" Zhu Changyuan pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

Just kidding, that's what he said, how can it be possible to regress with history, although it is impossible to structure the political system as perfect as the modern society of later generations, but it will not regress to before the Han and Tang dynasties.

"Don't worry, the widow will inherit the great cause of Emperor Taizu Chengzu, create a big territory, and build a big empire. Far from the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is not the king's land to be the real world, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister! ā€

Zhu Changyuan looks at the sky with pride, and at this moment, he can finally use the knowledge and viewpoint of a modern person to carry the great power of the Han nation to conquer the world and slaughter the seven continents and four oceans.

"Big territory?" Li Xin gasped.

"Yes, big territory!" Zhu Changyuan squinted at the sky, as if telling Li Xin. It was as if telling himself, muttering: "Within the four oceans, there are no two lands, and there are all races in the world." And the Han family! ā€

This is Zhu Changyuan's ideal, and it is also his greatest wish!

He did this not to build a great cause, but to give the Han nation a chance to take off again, and to make the Chinese Empire reign a thousand years earlier than later generations.

Li Xin looked at Zhu Changyuan, and his body moved slightly.

Earlier, he had heard that the boss was leading an army to attack Burma. When he plundered Fusang, he was still quite dissatisfied with what Zhu Changyuan had done, thinking that he was wasting his national strength by working hard and wasting money, but after knowing the boss's ambition at this time, Li Xin couldn't help but be moved.

What is Fuso? It's just a dog leg that the Chinese Empire has raised for thousands of years!

What is Burma, ordinary soldiers in the Ming Dynasty can **** them, not to mention Zhu Changyuan's undefeated army!

As for the sixteen words "there are no two lands in the four oceans, all the races in the world and one Han family", Li Xin still feels that it is a bit excessive, after all, the people of the Ming Dynasty already have a lot of geographical knowledge, and they know that there are many big countries outside of China.

As far as he knew, the territory of a Tianzhu Kingdom was not much smaller than that of the Ming Empire!

At this moment, Dorgon and Dodor had reached fifty miles north of Nanyang with their bodyguards.

To the soldiers, Dordor commanded: "Follow the king, do not go out at will, do not harass the people, and those who violate the order will be killed!" ā€

It's not that he loves the people so much, but that along the way, he is afraid.

From Beijing to Henan, you can hear the legend of Zhu Changyuan everywhere, especially the tsunami that just passed a few days ago, which simply blew Zhu Changyuan into the sky, after the people heard this story, they all showed a look of excitement and worship, and some people even regarded Zhu Changyuan as a god, **** worship, and kowtowed to the direction of Sun Moon Island every day.

"Brother Wang, you say, is this true?" Dodor asked in a whisper to Dorgon.

Dolgon sighed softly, reined in the reins of the horse, looked at the rising sun that had just risen in the sky, stopped, and said, "Zhu Changyuan is our nemesis of the Qing Dynasty!" But he answered Dodor's question directly.

Duoduo also stopped the reins of his horse and continued unwillingly: "I don't believe that he, Zhu Changyuan, can know the future, is he really representing the will of heaven and coming to rule the world?" ā€

Dolgon's face was gloomy, he let go of the reins and slapped the horse's buttocks, and walked forward gently, "Maybe he has another way, perhaps, he really has the favor of God!" ā€

"I don't believe it!" Dodor patted his horse to catch up with Dorgon and said.

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, the important thing is that the people believe it. It was his language that migrated most of the people, so they were all grateful to Zhu Changyuan. Dorgon looked at Dorgon and said, "Even those who have not been benefited are grateful to him, and he has now become a god in the hearts of the Han people!" ā€

"Then we...

Before Dorgon could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Dorgon: "We are all wrong! ā€

"Wrong?" Duoduo looked at his fourteenth brother in confusion.

"Yes!" Dolgon said bluntly, "When Chongzhen was alive, he was the most important shackle on Zhu Changyuan's body, and now that the Ming Dynasty is dead, nothing can tie his wings anymore, alas! At the beginning, we shouldn't have sat back and watched Li Zicheng attack Jingshi! ā€

For Dolgon, Chongzhen can still make some benefits in Liaodong, and Zhu Changyuan is afraid that the whole clan will return to that bitter cold place, which is still the best ending.

If you don't do it, you will be pushed farther away, or you will be directly wiped out by Zhu Changyuan.

"Then what should we do about this ten-party alliance?" Dodor asked.

"Compromise and wait for the opportunity!"

It is easy to understand what Zhu Changyuan said, what he did, and he didn't resist at all when he ravaged at will. But the words "waiting for the opportunity" are worth pondering.

Duoduo couldn't figure it out either, and asked, "How do you wait for the opportunity?" ā€

Dolgon said, "If others move, we will move!" ā€

Duoduo looked like I understood, and said, "You mean that we have to work together against Zhu Changyuan?" ā€

The corners of Dolgon's mouth showed a hint of mockery, and said: "That's looking for death, I mean, if others want to move, we will immediately turn into Zhu Changyuan's lackeys and pounce on them!" ā€

December 20th.

In the early morning, before the morning frost falls, the lazy sun rises from the east with a pale soft light.

At this moment, a luxurious four-horse carriage slowly moved towards the city from outside the east gate of Xiangyang City, and behind the car were hundreds of magnificent retinues, including men and women, infantry and cavalry.

The group came from a long way outside the east gate, and when they reached the city gate, they were intercepted by the soldiers who greeted them outside the gate.

"Stop!"

A ceremonial officer stood in front of the car and shouted, and then the curtain on the car was opened, and from it stepped down a young man in high spirits, tall and mighty-looking, with a maturity in his eyes that did not match his age.

The person who came was Mu Tianbo.

"Yunnan Mu Wangfu, the general of the southern expedition to the south of the Qianguo Gong Mu Tianbo came to Xiangyang, to pay a visit to Zhu Changyuan, the king of Yanming, and to participate in the Ten Parties Alliance!" After the ceremonial officer saw Mu Tianbo, he shouted loudly, then saluted Mu Tianbo, walked to his side and said, "Grandpa, please come with me!" ā€

After Mu Tianbo was invited into Xiangyang, he came alone.

"Hahahaha!" There was a rough laugh, and then I only heard the man say: "Xiangyang Mansion, this handsome man is here again!" ā€

Zhang Xianzhong didn't have the pain of being knocked off at all, and he didn't care at all about Xiangyang, where he was chased by Zhu Changyuan for a month before leaving, and he almost starved to death. He showed a bold appearance, looked at the surrounding cities, and said: "King Yanming is really powerful, this Xiangyang City is much more prosperous and richer than before." ā€

Then, the Korean prince Li Hao and Riyue Daoluo also came over one after another.

After everyone came, they were all led into Zhu Yiming's palace by the ceremonial officials, and then directly entered the hall of the alliance that had been prepared a long time ago.

At nine o'clock, Zhu Changyuan led a few people to enter from the entrance of the main hall, looked at the people at the scene, and frowned involuntarily.

No one came.

According to the reason, including himself, there are ten forces such as Li Zicheng, Dolgon, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Xiong Wencan, Zuo Liangyu, Li Hao, Zhu Yousong, and Mu Tianbo.

But now in the specified time, there are only six people, including Dolgon, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Xiong Wencan, Li Hao, and Mu Tianbo, and there are three less.

Li Zicheng, Zuo Liangyu and Zhu Yousong did not come.

Don't give face!

Zhu Changyuan's face suddenly sank, he slowly walked to his seat, looked at everyone who was doing it, first slightly, and then said a little stupidly: "It seems that some people still regard my words as wind in their ears!" (To be continued.) )
