Chapter 648: Qiu Fu's Difficulties
Liu Sheng didn't bet with Zhu Di in the end, because he found that there were two people who couldn't bet, one was Zhu Di and the other was Hu Ye, because betting with these two people didn't end well.
Bet with Zhu Di, even if Zhu Di loses, he wins, who calls him the emperor?
Bet with Hu Ye, that is, there is no chance of winning at all, because since he knew Hu Ye, he has never seen Hu Ye lose.
And Hu Ye naturally didn't know about this bet, he had already galloped to the East Palace, and this matter had to be reported to Zhu Gaochi.
At this moment, Zhu Gaochi was naturally a little annoyed, because he had already sent someone to stop Hu Ye at the first time, but the person who came reported that Hu Ye did not give him face at all, even if his people went, Hu Ye had no intention of stopping.
"Weichen Hu Ye, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." Hu Ye came to Zhu Gaochi and saluted.
"Good! What a Hu Ye, you are getting bolder and bolder. ”
Zhu Gaochi looked at Hu Ye angrily, this time Qiu Fu can be said to be out of the way, so he will act as his eyeliner and follow Zhu Gaoxu to Sichuan, but it has only been out for a month, and something happened in the family, the eldest son's hamstring was picked by Hu Ye, and the younger son's right hand was chopped off by Hu Ye, and I don't know how to explain it when I come back.
"Your Highness, Weichen has always been very bold, but I don't know where to start with this matter." Hu Ye said casually.
"Hmph, don't you know that this palace has sent someone to stop you!" Zhu Gaochi shouted loudly, if Qiu Fu had a gap in his heart because of this, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses? What's even worse is that now Qiu Fu is with Zhu Gaoxu, if Qiu Fu knows about it, Zhu Gaoxu will take advantage of it and pull Qiu Fu into his camp, and the loss will be even greater.
"Your Highness, when they kidnapped the servants and maids of the micro-ministers. Why don't you see Your Highness stop it? Hu Ye asked directly.
"You ......."
was questioned by Hu Ye like this, Zhu Gaochi was speechless, yes, haven't you always been kind? Why don't you care about a weak woman, but you have a benevolent heart for two scumbags? Could it be that you are thinking too much about it?
"Your Highness, I will give an explanation to Duke Qi Guogong about this matter, and I will not make it difficult for His Highness. If His Royal Highness really thinks that Wei Chen's approach is inappropriate, Wei Chen is willing to give up the name of this Shao Zhan Shi and continue to be his own Ying Tianzhi. Hu Ye said loudly, and then walked out of the East Palace without looking back.
Let's be honest. So far, he is disappointed in Zhu Gaochi, maybe he became the prince, he has too many worries, and he thinks too much, and now he has Zhu Gaochi, it seems that he is no longer the Zhu Gaochi he was at the beginning.
Maybe it's just the sentence that Hu Ye often says, people will change, but I don't know if it's in a good direction. It's still a bad direction.
Looking at the back of Hu Ye leaving, the eunuch behind Zhu Gaochi couldn't stand it. "Your Highness, this son is too presumptuous, do you want to teach him a lesson."
"No, I don't. There is some truth in what he said, maybe this palace has thought too much. Zhu Gaochi closed his eyes, thinking about how much he had thought about since he came back from Beiping. I am always worried that I will get the position of the crown prince, my second brother will go to earn a watch, and I have to take a picture of the prince to watch. This is not only a weak heart, but also a lack of self-confidence, is this still the appearance of a big brother?
……
Such a big thing happened in Nanjing City, and the son of Guogong was picked off his hamstrings and chopped off his right hand, which naturally caused everyone to discuss.
At the same time, a piece of paper also crossed the mountains from Nanjing and flew directly to Qiu Fu, who had just crossed the Jialing River.
When Qiu Fu saw the contents of the letter, his hands trembled.
"Qi Guogong, that Fanchang Hou is really bold, he dares to be so presumptuous, picked your eldest son's hamstring, chopped off your second son's right hand, and when this king goes back, he must ask his father to join him, and he must make him pay for it!"
Zhu Gaoxu naturally knew the news, after all, he also had a lot of people in Nanjing, so Yu Zhongmou was observing the forces of all parties in Nanjing, and news would come from Nanjing every day.
And since the last time he listened to Yu Zhongmou's words, went to the Nameless Mansion to visit Hu Ye, and listened to Hu Ye's two stories, he knew that Hu Ye would never stand on his side. The idea of ruining miè if you don't use it for your own use has taken deep root in Zhu Gaoxu's mind.
Now is a good opportunity, not only to be able to drive a wedge between Qiu Fu and Hu Ye and Zhu Gaochi, but also to bring down Hu Ye, he naturally spares no effort.
"It's all the dog's own fault, this time it's to provoke Fanchanghou, and it's just broken hands and feet, if you provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked, it's too late to lose your life." Qiu Fu put away the letter and muttered.
How could he not know Zhu Gaochu's thoughts, but since he had already decided with Zhu Gaochi, he would not change his mind on the spot.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, it's late at night, and Weichen is going to rest." Qiu Fu said loudly to Zhu Gaoxu.
Zhu Gaoxu held back the anger in his heart, flicked his sleeves and walked out, he was now putting down his body to persuade Qiu Fu, but he didn't expect this result.
After Zhu Gaoxu walked out, Qiu Fu took out the letter again, he naturally recognized it, this letter was written by his grandson, presumably his grandson was there at the time, and Hu Ye still did so.
"Engong, Engong, how can you let me be good."
Qiu Fu crumpled the letter into a ball, then put it on top of the oil lamp, and then lit it directly, muttering to himself in the light of the fire.
Sichuan is a place with many disasters, a song "Shu Road Difficult" back then, it can be said to make it sound more difficult here, plus there are mostly mountainous areas and basins, so there are often natural disasters such as landslides and mudslides, and if there is an earthquake again, the disaster will be even greater.
The inconvenience of entering and exiting also makes the place seem somewhat isolated, and once it is affected, it is difficult for supplies from outside to come in, so the victims have to fend for themselves.
In addition, many of the officials here are suspected of stealing from the guards, so when the victims did not eat, these officials were eating and drinking spicy food, which naturally annoyed the victims.
So it is not so much a rebellion of the displaced people here, but rather the dissatisfaction of the affected people with the imperial court, they just occupied the government to find food, but after a piece of paper, they became a chaotic people.
And the responsibility of Zhu Gaoxu and Qiu Fu is to exterminate this group of victims.
But when Qiu Fu crossed the Jialing River and saw a barren article, he suddenly understood the people here.
At the beginning, he followed Zhu Di to carry out the Battle of Jingjing, and he also saw Shandong in a few years of war, which can be described as a poor livelihood, but compared with here, it seems to be a small thing.
This is the bank of the Jialing River, which should be fertile with water and grass, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but they did not expect that there is a smell of blood everywhere, and the Jialing River is about to be dyed into a river of blood.
This is already the fifth day that he has known the news of Nanjing, and he has already made a plan in his heart, ready to put down the rebellion here, and go back to make plans.
But when he saw the scene in front of him, he also knew that he was afraid that this was not something that would be solved in a while.
So that night, Qiu Fu wrote a letter to his family and sent him back to Nanjing, but he couldn't sleep all night, not because of family affairs, but because of things here.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't have as many worries as Qiu Fu, in his opinion, his task was to suppress the rebellion here, so he didn't care why these people rebelled, as long as they attacked the government, it was a rebellion, and they only needed to be wiped out.
So on the second day, Zhu Gaoxu directly ordered the army to attack, and it took less than half a day to take Baoning Mansion, because there were only less than a hundred displaced people guarded, and there was no organization, think about it, how could a group of peasants who only knew that they relied on the sky for food could be the opponent of thousands of elite soldiers, and all of them died in the end, and the only thing they could be happy with was that they were not starving to death.
When Qiu Fu found out about this, it was already too late, because Zhu Gaoxu was already sitting in the palace of Baoning Mansion.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, you ......" Qiu Fu came to the mansion and wanted to say something to Zhu Gaoxu, but he didn't know where to start, after all, the boss this time was Zhu Gaoxu, and he was the King of Han, no matter what aspect, he had no right to point fingers.
"Qi Guogong, I only killed a hundred chaotic people, according to reports, there are tens of thousands of chaotic people in this generation, and we have a long way to go." Zhu Gaoxu laughed.
Qiu Fu's face was gloomy, he understood that Zhu Gaoxu could do whatever it took to complete the task, if it went on like this, the tens of thousands of displaced people here would only be exterminated, but they were all forced to do nothing.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, although there are not many rebels here, they are widely distributed, why don't we divide our troops into two routes, you go north along the Jialing River, and I go south along the Jialing River, how about separate counterinsurgency?" Qiu Fujian yì to.
"Haha, that's great." Zhu Gaoxu laughed, this is the effect he needs, since he can't win over Qiu Fu, then separate, so that he can better perform the purpose of coming out this time.
Qiu Fu naturally knew that his mission this time was to spy on Zhu Gaoxu, but compared to the livelihood of the people here, he thought that this task seemed to be less important.
"Someone, send this letter back to the East Palace as soon as possible, and let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have an idea."
After returning to the barracks, Qiu Fu wrote a letter to Zhu Gaochi about the situation here, and in his opinion, what was needed here was more pacification than repression.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, that Qiu Fu has a different heart, he is already with the prince, and just now he sent someone to deliver the letter, I am afraid that it is to report to the prince, should we ......"
In Zhu Gaoxu's palace, a middle-aged man made a clicking gesture, and he didn't know whether to kill Qiu Fu or the person who delivered the letter.
"Don't do it, he is the prince of the country after all. As for the messenger, if he intercepts it, I'll see what news he sends back to my eldest brother. Zhu Gaoxu sneered.
At this time, Qiu Fu prepared another letter and handed it to another person.
"At night, go south along the Jialing River, avoid the eyes and ears of the King of Han, and be sure to send it to the hands of the prince." Qiu Fu whispered to the man.
"Subordinates obey." The man answered, and then respectfully withdrew. (To be continued......)
