Chen Yuanyuan in Zhu Ping'an's impression, whose real name is Xing Yuan, was born in a merchant's family, his parents died early, he was fostered in his aunt's house, and his surname was changed to Chen with his uncle. Later, she was sold into the pear orchard in Suzhou, and starred in "The Legend of the West Chamber" as the matchmaker who became an instant hit, and soon became a Qinhuai courtesan who was unique in color and art, and became famous.

Now, Jiading Bo Zhou Kui, that is, the henchmen of the old father-in-law of Taishan of the current emperor Chongzhen, Zhou Mian and Chen Yuanyuan went north to Beijing in the same car, which shows that the real story in history has been quietly staged.

Since Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, the world has been turbulent, thieves and the Manchu Qing Dynasty outside the border have attacked and disturbed one after another. In order to alleviate the emperor's worries, Empress Zhou ordered Zhou Kui, the abbot of the country, to go down to the Jiangnan beauty pageant to serve in the palace. These stories or histories are also often seen in later novels and TV plots, but I don't know if they are true or false, but now it seems that at least Chen Yuanyuan did enter Beijing because of Jiading Bo Zhoukui.

As for the purpose of entering Beijing, Zhu Ping'an is quite skeptical now. As we all know, although Emperor Chongzhen has average governing ability and indecisive personality, he treats himself very harshly, and can be said to be an out-and-out workaholic and idealist. In this regard, it is very similar to Zhu Yujian. And Empress Zhou is known for her virtuousness, and after helping Chongzhen Shun to ascend the throne, she is diligent and thrifty, but it does not mean that she can live a life without desires and desires.

Zhu Ping'an clearly remembered that according to the historical records, Emperor Chongzhen's favorite concubine was actually Tian Guifei. And the contradiction between Tian Guifei and Empress Zhou also came from this. As the lord of **, no matter how broad-minded he is, I am afraid that he will not be able to tolerate the emperor being occupied by a woman. Therefore, Zhu Ping'an suspected with bad taste that Chen Yuanyuan's entry into the palace was probably a counterattack arranged by Queen Zhou against Tian Guifei.

"My lord", Hong Fatzi noticed Zhu Ping'an's strange appearance, "Are you the little lady in the picture?" ”

Hong Fat Man swallowed his saliva, "Speaking of which, that little lady is really beautiful, no wonder the adults are fascinated." Since Miss Mu entered Beijing, I haven't seen an adult do this to that woman. It's better to snatch her over and make a concubine for adults! Anyway, there's only that dog-like housekeeper here, and the knife clicks, and the gods don't know it! ”

Zhu Ping'an sneered and gave Hong Fatzi a punch, "Do you know who Zhou Mian is?" Dare to speak like this, the head of his family is the old Taishan of the current Long Live Lord, a relative of the queen's family. You dare to fight the idea of Jiading Bofu, how many heads do you have? ”

Fat Hong stuck out his tongue and hurriedly closed his stinky mouth.

Zhu Ping'an didn't care. In fact, as a traverser, his immunity to beauty is ten or a hundred times stronger than the current Ming people. The so-called beauties in the Internet and entertainment industry in later generations, whether they are natural or post-processed, are far beyond the imagination of the people of the Ming Dynasty today, so although Chen Yuanyuan is one of the most beautiful women in the world, Zhu Ping'an has never cared too much.

Zhu Ping'an was thinking about how to use the Jiading Bofu behind Zhou Mian to add a heavy weight to his upcoming expansion plan. Also, after a series of events in the past two days, Zhu Ping'an's mood gradually stabilized.

Born in troubled times, there is no choice, the only thing that can be mastered at present is gold and silver and power, with these two, even in this bloody era between the Ming and Qing dynasties, you can still make a difference, and you can even compete in the world. Think about a series of meteor-like characters in the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, each of which actually has the possibility of winning the world, not to mention Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Wu Sangui. Even Zheng Chenggong, Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Zhang Huangyan, including his very tragic father, Zhu Yujian, Emperor Longwu, once had a good opportunity to seize the entire world. But they all lost.

And Zhu Ping'an is different, as a traverser, the advantages of his body are obvious, he is clear about the corners of history, and he clearly knows the location at every turning point, so that those so-called big people may not be able to take advantage of anything.

Because of his intuition, Zhu Ping'an, from the day he was reborn a year ago, his history officially began.

With a "snap", the knife hit Hong Fatman's head hard, and although he was wearing a worn iron helmet, Hong Fatman still screamed. Looking back, it was Yue Jinfeng with a cold face.

"Don't instigate your lordship, Miss Mu is the housewife of our waiting, and sooner or later your lord will marry her into the door!" Yue Jinfeng's words were still blank and emotionless, but there was clearly a trace of anger in his eyes.

"What kind of character is an adult, how can I not have three wives and four concubines to spread the branches, I am also a good intention!" Hong Fatzi was very aggrieved.

Yue Jinfeng was about to fight again, and Hong Fatzi hurriedly ran behind Zhu Ping'an. Yue Jinfeng pointed at him and scolded: "If Brother Cao is here, he will definitely kill you on the spot for what you just said!" ”

At the mention of Cao Wuxian, Hong Fatzi's face became a little pale, but his mouth was still defending himself, "Miss Mu is naturally good, knowledgeable, gentle and lovely, and naturally the best choice for the main mother." But she is now far away in the capital, and the adult will be sixteen in the coming year, and she is still alone, and I am also planning for the adult! ”

Zhu Ping'an smiled and stopped between the two, looking at the expressions of the two, but he couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.

"Well, don't look at me like that. When Yuling left Fengyang, it was still you and no injury, and the design dragged the old master Mu. Hong Fatzi was later beaten like a pig's head by the old master with a ring ruler. This led to the meeting between me and Yuling before parting. You also know about me and Yuling, in this life, I will not marry her, and she will not marry me. Rest assured, all the things I am planning now are for the sake of a good future for myself and my brothers, otherwise why would I bother to take on so many things? ”

Zhu Ping'an's heartfelt words made Yue Jinfeng and Hong Fatzi a little embarrassed, and the two of them made amends to Zhu Ping'an. Zhu Ping'an patted them on the shoulder, "I know that you are all for my good, if you can be a brother with fate in this life, you must cherish it, and you will accompany me in the wind and rain along the way in the future, the world is so big, where can you not go!" ”

Yue Jinfeng clenched his fists, "Lord Demeng will not give up, Jinfeng is willing to serve his life!" ”

Hong Fatzi shook his head, "I can't miss me, the glory and wealth in the future will all depend on adults!" ”

Zhu Ping'an smiled, "Don't forget that right now, the 20,000 army of thieves is gathered under Fengyang City, and the siege of Fengyang is incomprehensible, and we can't get rid of it!" ”

Yue Jinfeng and Hong Fatzi's expressions also became solemn.

"Let's go! Come with me to see the camp of the thieves, and wait until I get in touch with the city before I make plans! ”

……

Look at the sky, it's already midnight. The open area about five miles away from Fengyang City is still brightly lit, and even if it is far away, you can hear the chaotic sound like a vegetable market.

The camp of the thieves was set up under the earthen wall of the outer city of Fengyang. As the city was still in ruins, the thieves feared a night attack, so they placed their camp outside the open city. People shouted and neighed, and it was very noisy.

Zhu Ping'an frowned when he looked at it, the thieves claimed to be 20,000 people, but now looking at the scale of the entire camp, it seems that it has exceeded 30,000 people, which is greatly beyond his expectations.

Yue Jinfeng was born in the army and has rich experience, and after a little look, he explained to Zhu Ping'an: "Don't worry, my lord, although there are many thieves, there have always been hungry people along the way to join, look at this camp is scattered, and even guard against each other, and the army's heart is scattered!" ”

The camp of the thieves is divided into four parts, three large camps on the left, middle and right, as well as the rear army. The Chinese army battalion is better, it seems to be the most effective unit under a gust of wind, looking at the number of tents, there are about 8,000 people. There were trenches and pointed timbers dug between it and the surrounding camps. It was not that there were cavalry patrolling the central army, and it seemed that they were constantly suppressing the various units that followed.

Zhu Ping'an suddenly asked, "Is night blindness still common in the army?" ”

Yue Jinfeng replied without hesitation: "In terms of my Ming official army, the Beijing camp is slightly better, after all, most of them are the sons and daughters of nobles and hereditary officers, even if the family is not good, there is no problem in making a living." It is very common in the border army and the military household guard, but there is no night blindness on the contrary, it is an outlier! As for this thief, he is not as good as the official army. ”

Yue Jinfeng thought for a moment, "What do you mean by ......, night attack?" ”

Zhu Ping'an pointed to the thief's promise and said: "Fighting during the day, the thieves have an advantage in numbers after all, and there are also brave soldiers among them, so I and more than 100 others have no chance to take advantage of it." Looking at their camp now, bandits are bandits after all, and there is no order to set up camp, and this is our good opportunity. ”

Yue Jinfeng nodded, such an idea was not wrong. If you are facing an army commanded by a thief leader such as Li Zicheng or Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, a night attack is absolutely not advisable. Because their subordinates are only veterans who have experienced a hundred battles, many of them are border troops and children of military households, who are proficient in military affairs, and night attacks will not only not take advantage, but will be counterattacked.

But now it is different, most of these thieves in front of them are clearly some farmers who have just put down their hoes and sickles, lawless horse thieves and high-rollers, among whom there may be elites, but the number is too small. The point is that the commander of the army of thieves in front of him is clearly a complete layman.

How can such a God-given opportunity be missed.

Zhu Ping'an looked at Fengyang City in the night in the distance, if he guessed correctly, Lu Zhenfei and Lu Jiude could also see these doorways, the key is whether they have the courage to go out of the city to fight, and whether the various departments of the Fengyang garrison have the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat!

"Fatty, is the groom still with you?" Zhu Ping'an suddenly asked.

Hong Fatzi was stunned for a moment, and nodded hurriedly, "Follow, except for me and Yue Xiaoqi, the whole camp is Yue Zongqi!" He is also literate and hyphenated, and he follows me to keep accounts on weekdays! ”

Zhu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction, turned around and smiled at Yue Jinfeng and Hong Fatzi, "Who has the courage to go to the thieves' camp with me?" ”
