Chapter 25: Rumors

The imperial court changed the guards of Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao.

The Yongxing Inn in Yuanbao has now been packed, and in the wing room of the east courtyard, there are five people sitting at the moment, and there is a handsome scholar sitting in the middle, and there are four men standing on the left and right. The handsome scholar is the sword embroidery dressed as a man, and the four men, led by one of them, is Wu An.

It had been a few days since they came to Laiyuanbao, but they didn't find anything abnormal, and Wu Ping, who was in charge of Zhangjiakou, also didn't find anything. The reason why Jian Xiu wanted to sit in Laiyuanbao in person was also to consider that the number of troops in Laiyuanbao was less than that of Zhangjiakou, and of course, the pass was relatively smaller.

"Wu An, what we thought of, it seems that Lord Yue in the court also thought of it, just in case, he sent his confidants and favorite generals over, obviously attaches great importance to it." Jian Xiu said flatly.

"Yes, ma'am. Since Lord Yue has already sent someone here, you said let's do it now, can we go back and report to your lordship? Wu An said cautiously.

"Go back now, it should be a little early, Lord Yue has taken precautions, it can be seen that our prediction is not wrong, Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao will definitely become the targets of the Tartars. From this, it can also be seen that first, Lord Yue attaches great importance to this place, and second, he is not sure about the master's ability to use soldiers to fight. Let's leave now, wouldn't it be in vain, Lord Yue still thinks that the master has done nothing, this is not good. Therefore, I think we should stay here, once something happens, we can also come out to help as soon as possible, let Lord Yue see, our master is not an idle meal, what he can think of, our master can also think of. Jian Xiu said.

"Madame is taught. Now, what are we supposed to do? Wu An said.

"In terms of the situation, it is beneficial to my Ming Dynasty, if the Tartar does not move, he is waiting for death, so the Tartar will definitely move. Even if you know that the imperial court has already done a good job in Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao, you will still take risks. Lord Yue saw this, so he changed generals on the spot, showing that he had paid attention to this, that is, he was not afraid that the enemy would not come. Seeing this, the Tartars will not change their original plan when the situation is pressing, at most they will strengthen the cloth, and I am sure that the day they do it will definitely be a tough battle. Lord Yue's people are in the light, then our people will be in the dark, in this way, you go back and tell the master, let him secretly send some more people to choose more good hands. Jian Xiu commanded.

"Yes, madam, my subordinates will go back and tell my lord what Mrs. means." Wu An bowed and said.

"Okay." Jian Xiu nodded.

Come to the inn of Yuanbao, the recent business is particularly hot, although it is said that it was good in the past, there are many guests who come to stay every day, but these days, it is mostly to pack the inn, and a pack, it is not a day or two.

Laiyuan Inn is the largest inn in Laiyuanbao, with many rooms, but now, it is also packed. The guests who chartered this inn were a caravan from outside the gate, with a hundred or so people, leading more than thirty carts, all loaded with fine furs.

Although it is a hundred people, the huge Laiyuan Inn only needs two courtyards, which is enough for them to live, but they have to pack the entire inn.

These people, who have lived in the inn for three days, have lived in seclusion and have not seen them go out to discuss business. But today, a group of caravans came from Guannai, and I don't know how to get in touch, so they joined this inn and talked about buying and selling with merchants from outside Guan.

The owner of the inn only made money and didn't pay attention. Good life greetings, that is.

In the east wing, two groups of merchants got together, and there were people guarding the door.

"Lord Tong, you came so fast, the little brother thought that he would have to wait for a while. Now the situation in Kannai, I don't know what to do, are the big guys ready? "The one who spoke was the leader of the fifth group sent by Dolgon.

And the person who met with him was naturally the leader of the second group, Tong Tulai.

"Tian Gang is in the Guannei, he is still a little Taoist, everyone has concealed it, and no one has found out, and now he is being assigned to the city to join you. However, I just got the news that the guards of Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao have been replaced, and it seems that the Ming court has noticed this. We inquired, and now the laws and regulations of the general Tong Zhou who came to Yuanbao turned out to be Yue Su's confidant general. This time, it's not easy for us to succeed. Tong Tulai said.

"That's how it is. Did you send someone to inform the emperor? Jin Li hurriedly asked.

"I have sent someone back to report to the emperor, but I don't know if the emperor will change his original plan." Tong Tulai said.

To tell the truth, after Huang Taiji received their arrival report, he really wanted to change it, but if he didn't break through from here, where would he break through.

Shengjing Palace, in the imperial study, Huang Taiji, Dolgon, Fan Wencheng, only the three of them sat inside.

"You have all read the arrival report sent by Tong Tulai, what we want, the Ming court also thought of it, and specially sent Yue Su's henchmen and generals to sit there. You say, what should we do now? Huang Taiji said bitterly.

"Brother Huang, there are only these two places to go at the mouth of the Great Wall, and there is no other way, even if we know that the Ming Court is ready, we are afraid that we have no choice but to fight with the Ming army. The only way is to plan and arrange it more carefully. Dorgon gritted his teeth.

"Lord Rui is right, Huashan is a road, we can only act according to the original plan. However, the minions think that we can do something somewhere else, maybe we can disrupt the Ming army's position, so as to take advantage of its unpreparedness and take down the far fort. Fan Wencheng said.

"Mr. Fan, you said that you were doing things somewhere else, where should it be?" Huang Taiji asked.

"The current Ming Court, it can be said that it is all supported by Yue Su, I heard that this person is very powerful, and he is a leader in the world in terms of civil governance and martial arts. The civil strife in the Ming court, it only took him a few years to pacify the liukou, let the people recuperate, and fill the treasury. And this time, it was also his idea to let Mao Wenlong bring so many warships here to stir up. This person is too terrible, one day with him, there will be no Ning Ri of the Qing Dynasty, and it is impossible for the emperor to enter the Central Plains. So the minion thought, we should start with him first, and find a way to kill him, after all, no matter how strong the fortress is, it is also attacked from the inside. Fan Wencheng said.

"This Yue Su is indeed hateful, and he has repeatedly done good things to me, and the generals who were transferred to Zhangjiakou and Laiyuanbao this time are also his people, so it can be seen that our opportunity has been seen by him. It's just that if you want to deal with him, it's not easy to talk about, he is the first assistant of the Ming court, the minister of Tuogu, the emperor and the queen mother of the Ming Dynasty, they all trust him very much, and the guards around him are also as many as cows, openly and secretly, I am afraid that it will be difficult to succeed. Huang Taiji shook his head and said.

"It's really hard to succeed, but if you try it, there is nothing to lose for us, maybe we can succeed, and we don't know." Fan Wencheng said with a light smile.

"Yes, try it, and it won't hurt us. Mr. Fan, if you have any ideas, speak up and listen to them. Huang Taiji said.

"I heard a while ago that Yue Su set up a parliament and brought out all the parties in the DPRK and China, this method is quite good, it avoids the dominance of one party, and everything can be regarded as fair and just. More importantly, he can also tell the emperor and the empress dowager Mingzhi of the Ming court that he has no intention of rebelling. Now, if we are seriously injured by spreading rumors, saying that he intends to usurp the throne, it is really inappropriate, and no one will believe it. However, it was because of his loyalty that I thought of another way. Speaking of this, Fan Wencheng's face showed a sinister smile, "The Queen Mother Zhang Yan, a young widow, is inevitably lonely, this Yue Su often enters the palace, and between the two of them, it is inevitable that there will be some melons and fields." Not only that, when the carpenter emperor was in power, didn't Yue Su often enter the palace, saying that he knew that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was only willing to do carpentry, and he didn't like women or anything too much. Zhang Yan's child, that is, the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is not the species of the carpenter emperor, we might as well make a fuss here. Everyone knows that Zhang Yan is obedient to Yue Su, even if Yue Su offends her mother's family, she will not blame her. Yue Su and some vassal kings of the Ming court were a little estranged, and Zhang Yan was also on Yue Su's side openly and secretly. The vassal kings of the Ming court in Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Henan were killed by the Liukou, but Yue Su has always sat on the wall and watched, allowing the Liukou to kill the vassal king, and never sent troops to save him, and Zhang Yan, as the queen mother, did not urge. I remember that a few days ago, we got a piece of information that King Fu was killed, and all the family property and land were robbed by the rogues, and the door was full of people, and only the son Zhu Youxiang was left. Later, Yue Su recovered Henan and distributed the land to the displaced people, but did not return it to the original owner, King Fu, which made the vassal king's opinion great. Later, Zhang Yan followed Yue Su's suggestion and did not return the land to King Fu, but only returned the silver at a price, and not even according to King Fu's actual land, you gave it according to the number of acres that were recorded in the original court to King Fu. And the other vassal kings who were killed by the rogues died and died, and they did not look for any heirs, and all the land they had at the beginning was distributed to the people. Your Majesty, the minions, let's make some articles on this, send people to the Central Plains to spread rumors, only say that the current emperor is the son of Yue Su and Zhang Yan, and the Ming Dynasty is no longer surnamed Zhu, otherwise, why would Zhang Yan listen to Yue Su's words so much and be so mean to the vassal king. It can be seen that Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by, and they want to change the Zhu family's country to the Yue family's country. ”

"Hmm......" After listening to Fan Wencheng's painting, Huang Taiji nodded and said: "This method is good, whether it works or not, toss them first." Yue Su didn't let me feel better, and I couldn't make him comfortable. Mr. Fan, I'll leave this matter to you. Dolgon, come to the Far Fort, you send someone to inform them, and let them follow the original plan, just the cloth will do. Be careful, though, not to show flaws. ”

"The minions obey."

"Brother obeys." wW
