"A way out?" 6 Yong hesitated a little, and said in a daze: "We are all the guards of the Guogong Mansion, and in the eyes of the big people, we are just a bunch of ants. Even if something big happens in the world, we are powerless, let's watch the excitement. ”

Ostrich mentality!

Gu Zhenhua sighed secretly in his heart, 6 Yong They still didn't see the sinister situation in front of them clearly. But in other words, they are all so sober, how can they be useful.

"6 eldest brother, come to my house, the younger brother has a few words, I want you to talk to him."

6 Yong also nodded, Gu Zhenhua is good, understands medical skills, and is righteous, so among these people, his status rises quickly, and when he encounters something, he also wants to hear Gu Zhenhua's opinion.

"6 eldest brother, Zhou Yuji's general soldier is a rare good general in the Ming Dynasty, I heard that in the ninth year of Chongzhen, the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Kou. Everyone avoided but did not fight, only Zhou Yuji won the battle, and only climbed to the position of the guerrilla in Beijing, and in a few years, he was promoted to the general army of Shanxi. ”

"That's right, many people in the capital praised the bravery of General Zhou back then, I really didn't expect that such a brave general would also die in battle, and I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty is really dangerous!"

"6 eldest brother, the younger brother said something unkind, Da Ming is dead." Gu Zhenhua said with a smile: "The road to the capital has been opened, and in the next step, Li Zicheng's army will go straight to Beijing, I am afraid that the sky will change soon, maybe it won't even take a month!" ”

6 Yong is not a fool either, he also knows that the situation is not good, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Brother Gu, how strong Beijing Sijiu City is, even if it is to be attacked, I am afraid that it will not be able to take it in a few months, and when the army in Jiangnan goes north, there may be a trace of survival."

Gu Zhenhua smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother 6, don't lie to yourself, what kind of virtue are the officials of the Ming Dynasty, you know better than me, this time you went to Shanxi, didn't you just deal with Zhu Chunchen's property." These nobles all felt that something was wrong, and they were just laid out in advance, and the princes who had received the emperor's favor for all generations were still like this, what else could others do, could they still expect to be able to produce a second Zhou Yuji? ”

Speaking of Shanxi's general soldier Zhou Yuji is really a great figure, he was stunned to beat Li Zicheng, the history records that Li Zicheng said that if there is another Zhou Yuji, he will not be able to enter Beijing.

It's just that there is only one such brave general, and the Ming Dynasty has entered the countdown.

6 Yong lowered his head and thought for a long time before he said, "Brother Gu, you said that if this Daming is finished, what should we do?" Are you honestly the people of Dashun? ”

Gu Zhenhua smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Big brother 6, I'm afraid it's not so easy." There has always been a change of dynasty, civil officials may surrender, can honorable nobles? Zhu Chunchen can't run, and I'm afraid that the person who does things for him is also in danger. ”

As soon as these words came out, 6 Yong suddenly shuddered, and hurriedly stood up from the chair, his face becoming extremely ugly. He looked outside, then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Gu, wake up the dreamer with a word, I'll go and invite the sixth uncle and them, you can analyze them for us." ”

Gu Zhenhua also nodded slightly, he had this idea for a long time, but he didn't find a chance to speak. Now that Shanxi has fallen into the hands of Li Zicheng, people with a little brain know that Da Ming is going to be finished, and at this time, he can fool 6 Yong and them to go with him.

Although there are not many people in a dozen or so, isn't the wild boar skin also a thirteen-pair armor start, isn't he as good as the old chieftain slave!

At this moment, the door was opened, and He Zhonghou, Xue Biao, and the injured Sun Cheng all walked in. Everyone also felt the oppressive atmosphere and sat down one after another.

"Zhenhua, everyone is suffering together, and no one dares to talk too much, if you have anything to say, just say it." He Zhonghou spoke first: "When the old man heard that General Zhou was killed, he had no bottom in his heart, and he always felt that the situation was a little bad. ”

"Sixth uncle, the end of the Ming Dynasty is inevitable, Cheng Guogong's family followed the Ming Dynasty and enjoyed more than two hundred years of glory and wealth, once the king entered Beijing, Xungui must be the first to lose his head, if he doesn't kill them, what should those generals in Li Zicheng's hands do?"

is the so-called son of heaven and a courtier, the reality is so cruel, He Zhonghou is a generous elder, but it does not mean that he is stupid, on the contrary, he can manage the accounts for the Guogong, it can be seen that this old man is quite shrewd, and he quickly understood the key.

"Zhenhua, according to what you say, Grandpa Guo is definitely going to die?"

"That's right!" Gu Zhenhua said firmly.

"This ...... It won't implicate us, will it? Xue Biao couldn't help but say: "We are just doing things, even if we change the dynasty, there should always be a way to live." ”

Gu Zhenhua said: "Li Zicheng is known as a rogue, and they rely on looting officials and wealthy families to maintain their military salaries. The money in the capital has not reached the surface of their feet, what can they do, I'm afraid I don't need to say more. When killing red eyes, it is difficult to guarantee that innocent people will not be implicated, I think everyone should be careful. ”

Several people heard Gu Zhenhua's analysis, pondered it carefully, and nodded one after another, He Zhonghou said: "What Zhenhua said makes sense, it seems that the big tree of Chengguo Gong is really going to fall, we should also find a way out, we can't be a burial companion." ”

6 Yong also asked: "Brother Gu, you can give everyone some guidance, where is our way of life?" ”

Gu Zhenhua also waited for them to ask this, so he smiled: "Let's analyze the situation in front of us first, and figure out the situation before we can make a decision." ”

6 Yong frowned and said, "Brother Gu, didn't you say that Li Zicheng was going to enter Beijing, is there any variable?" ”

"Absolutely." Gu Zhenhua said: "Since the second year of Chongzhen, the Tartars have entered the Central Plains four times, and the looting of property is not counted, not long ago. Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Qing court again, the Tartars are known to be greedy, and there are people who lead the way, the big guy said, there is a sudden change in the Guan, will they take advantage of the fire to rob? ”

"Yes, of course." Sun Cheng said: "These Tartars outside the gate do not produce, they rely on looting for a living, how can they let go of this kind of windfall." ”

He Zhonghou frowned, with a bitter look on his face: "Zhenhua, according to what you say, the Tartars will come in again, plus Dashun and Daming, isn't there going to be chaos in this world?" ”

"That's right, it can be said that the capital is already a land of right and wrong, no matter who wins or loses, if you are caught in the middle, there is only a dead end, even if Li Zicheng does not kill, there is still the Manchu Qing. Therefore, the only way to go south is to go south, and it is best to flee to Nanzhili. If you want me to say that you don't want to go back to Beijing this time, let's go south together, and several brothers are skilled in bows and horses, so why bother to be guards for others? When you go to the south, no matter who recruits troops, as long as you join the army, with everyone's ability, can't you mix up a leader? ”

Hearing Gu Zhenhua's analysis, several people present nodded incessantly, and they also knew that his method was the safest. It's just that in the end, 6 Yong smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Gu, there are some things you may not know yet. We are not free, and we still have families in the state mansion. Moreover, the situation has become more and more chaotic in recent years, and some family members have fled when they go out to run errands. In order to prevent escape, Zhu Chunchen set the rule of sitting, our family members are guarded, and if we don't listen to his orders, the family will be threatened, and we can't help ourselves. ”

Xue Biao also said: "Brother Gu, not only is he involuntarily, but the big guys have been working in the mansion for so many years, and there are still some friendships, which is really a little inconvenient. ”

Gu Zhenhua's brows also furrowed, he seemed to take it for granted, and could only say, "What do you think of the Guogong Mansion?" ”

"What else can you say, it's just a food errand." Sun Cheng said nonchalantly: "I was born in the border army, and I originally killed the enemy to serve the country, but I became a domestic slave. If you eat fragrant and drink spicy food, I will admit it, and I am alive. But now. People don't die for themselves, and I want to live for a few more years. ”

6 Yong also said: "A few years ago, Brother He Fang died tragically, and as a result, the mansion only rewarded ten taels of silver, and we people are nothing in the eyes of others!" ”

He Zhonghou was also full of remorse, and sighed: "It's all the old man who has no interest, his son died in an unknown way, he should have left a long time ago, but he still didn't leave, and the trouble was caused by himself." ”

These people have a lot of complaints about Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, Gu Zhenhua's heart is a lot more relaxed, if there are die-hard guys, it will be troublesome, now that he can start like this, Gu Zhenhua gradually has an idea in his heart.

"I have an idea, I can take everyone's family members out of the capital safely, and by the way, I can also get the capital for the big guy to settle down, but I don't know if everyone is willing?"

"Of course you do, Brother Gu, if you have anything, tell me quickly." Lao Sun said anxiously.

"Everyone first returned to the capital step by step, and then told Zhu Chunchen what they saw on the road, and encouraged him to transfer his family out, so that everyone's relatives could get out of danger. We stay in the capital, even if the army of the king comes in, with our ability, there is no drag, we can escape smoothly, and we can also take advantage of the chaos to get some oil and water. ”

"Zhenhua!" He Zhonghou shouted angrily: "I have no objection to transferring the family, but if you want to take advantage of the fire to rob and harm the people, this is a matter of losing conscience, I advise you to dispel this idea as soon as possible, otherwise the old man will not agree!" ”

Gu Zhenhua saw that the old man was angry, and hurriedly said: "Sixth uncle, you have always misunderstood, I didn't think about harming the people, but those who are officials can't take some points, they are corrupt and sell the law, and the country is ruined, let's collect some interest, right?" ”

"Brother Gu said it well!" Xue Biao also said: "We were born and died, and the little money we got can't catch up with the money for a day's banquet in the Guogong Mansion, I think there is really a day when we rob Zhu Chunchen, anyway, the old thing is mean, and he deserves it." ”

"Shut up." He Zhonghou said loudly: "I agree with the big guy finding a way out, and it doesn't matter if you use some means, but this kind of thing that harms the master's family must not be done." ”

6 Yong knew the old man's temper, so he hurriedly said: "Sixth uncle, Brother Gu is also a righteous man and a gentleman, and he will never do anything that ignores his conscience. ”

Gu Zhenhua said: "I can guarantee that as long as Zhu Chunchen is alive for a day, I will never beat his idea." ”

He Zhonghou's face finally eased, and Gu Zhenhua secretly thought in his heart, not moving alive does not mean not moving when he dies, for the first gold fight since the crossing, he will never be soft!

Everyone discussed the details again, and then Sun Cheng and Xue Biao went to understand other ideas. 6 Yong pulled Gu Zhenhua again and said, "Brother Gu, the sixth uncle is too nostalgic, you don't have to care." ”

"I know." Gu Zhenhua said: "It's not that I'm not scheming, but in this year, I can't live if I have no money in my hand, so I have to do it." ”

6 Yong's eyes suddenly lit up: "Brother Gu, speaking of people, there are hundreds of guards in the Guogong Mansion, and there are only a handful of people who are desperate, what if you can pull a few more?" ”
