Zhu Yunwen's order to Yun Zichen was to besiege Beiping without attacking, he wanted to say to the world that he had done his best to be benevolent and righteous, and let Zhu Di go, if Zhu Di was captured without restraint, it would not be his fault.

As a nephew, Zhu Yunwen did a good job, but as an emperor, he did very poorly, but he is the emperor after all, many people know this, but no one has spoken to him, because the current Zhu Yunwen is very happy.

Because of the great victory in the Battle of Dongchang, Zhu Yunwen ordered an amnesty to the world to show that he was a benevolent monarch. Although he had already granted amnesty once when he took office two years ago, he did it this time without hesitation.

In addition, all the soldiers who died in this battle had their pensions doubled and were all drawn from the treasury, but after two years of fighting, the treasury was tight, and they couldn't issue so much silver at all, so Zhu Yunwen thought of Hu Ye and took hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from Hu Ye, saying that it was borrowed by the imperial court, but the repayment date was undecided.

Hu Ye is helpless about this, who calls others emperors? If you want your life, let alone your money. But fortunately, the income from the theater, peanuts and bird tea can already support the expenses of Qingtian Academy, and Hu Ye will not stop Qingtian Academy because Zhu Yunwen took away 100,000 taels of silver.

"The emperor is really, don't you know that it's all our hard-earned money." Saren was a little unhappy, the money they had earned so hard went into the treasury, and no one could be happy.

"Don't care, money is something outside the body, it's better to take it to heart, and we can earn it without it." Hu Ye comforted Saren.

Tsing Yi can see it, although a large part of the money has to go through her hands, after all, she is the housekeeper of the Nanjing Nameless Mansion.

"Young master, the three kings ask to see you."

At this time, Zou Kai came to report.

"Huh? Are they back? Didn't they let them follow Yun Zichen? Hu Ye frowned, "Let them in." ”

Soon, Zhu Ying, Zhu Mo and Zhu Song came to Hu Ye's room.

"Dean. We have something to consult with you. Zhu Mo glanced at Saren and Tsing Yi next to him.

"You guys go out first." Hu Ye saw that the three princes were solemn, and knew that they had important things to discuss, so it was better not to let the two girls know.

Saren and Tsing Yi obediently exited the room and closed the door.

"Let's talk about it, what's the matter, didn't I tell you about the army that followed Yun Zichen?" Hu Ye asked loudly.

Zhu Song came to the door, plugged in the bolt, and then looked out vigilantly.

Zhu Mo came to the window and looked around vigilantly.

Seeing this, Hu Ye was even more strange. Do you need to be so serious?

Zhu Ying came to Hu Ye, took out the note from his arms, and handed it to Hu Ye.

"Dean, I just want to know, the handwriting on this is yours?" Zhu Ying asked loudly.

Hu Ye took the note and looked at it, and his eyes suddenly widened.

Isn't that the note he wrote to Zhang Yu four years ago! How did it fall into the hands of Zhu Ying?

Hu Ye hurriedly snatched the note, put it on the oil lamp next to him, and burned it to ashes in an instant! You must not let outsiders know about taking things, even those close to you can't let them know too much. Otherwise, there will be a disaster of killing, because no matter how close you are, there is a possibility that you will leak your mouth.

Looking at Hu Ye's reaction, the three princes had already confirmed their guess.

"Dean. Do you have to give us an explanation? Zhu Ying looked at Hu Ye with a smile and said.

"Have you seen Zhang Yu?" Hu Ye made up his mind, since these three people took this note to themselves, instead of Zhu Yunwen, it means that they don't want to make a big deal out of it.

"Zhang Yu? We don't know. We're just chasing down an enemy general, and then this note fell from the opposite side. Zhu Ying said.

"Chase? Did you catch up? Hu Ye was a little ominous in his heart.

"Caught up."

"Is the enemy going to be dead?"

"I don't know, because by the time I get the note. The army has been up the mountain for a long time. But as soon as we got this note, we led our army down the mountain, so we don't know what happened on the mountain. Zhu Song muttered.

"Don't you know?"

Hu Ye closed his eyes, feeling that his head hurt, according to the words of these three, Zhang Yu fled up the mountain with a few people at that time, and according to his memory, Zhang Yu in history led the army to a village, and he just wanted Zhang Yu to let go of the glory of his soldiers.

But now it seems that this note of his is superfluous, because his note is useless because of the mountain.

Unexpectedly, I wanted to save Zhang Yu's life, but in the end, it was in vain, and I couldn't change history after all.

"That man's name is Zhang Yu, he is my uncle, and when I went down the mountain, it was his son who saved me, so I left this note to repay. I didn't expect the world to be unpredictable, but in the end, it was ......" Hu Ye smiled bitterly.

"Since this is the case, we won't bother, we have to enter the palace to ask the emperor for a post, and then go back to the academy to study." Zhu Ying followed Zhu Mo and Zhu Song out of the Nameless Mansion.

Looking at the backs of the three princes, Hu Ye suddenly felt that there were too many coincidences in time, and there were too many helplessness.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to make a thousand calculations, and there are times when you miscalculate." Just as Hu Ye sighed, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Don't think about it, it must be the public who likes to eavesdrop, except for this goods, no one will be bored enough to eavesdrop on other people's privacy, after all, there were no paparazzi in the Ming Dynasty.

"Don't make fun of me, sir." Hu Ye shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that you see more thoroughly than I do, and you stood in line early." Gong said with a smile.

"Sir, it's not a side, it's just that because of a trade at the beginning, I buried my good youth. If I had to choose again, maybe I would have chosen to ignore it back then, because I've seen too much indifference, too much killing, too much disdain. I once said that people change, and after Zhu Yunwen became the emperor, he changed a lot. After Yun Zichen became Wei Yanghou, he also changed a lot, and after you came to the academy, sir, you have also changed a lot. And I, too, have changed a lot. ”

Hu Ye muttered. To be honest, if he could really come again, he would not have followed Gao Ren and Zheng Er to Zhang Fu's military camp at the beginning, he would rather live quietly in the Ming Dynasty alone, and not get involved in this troublesome and complicated power dispute.

But that's what the butterfly effect says, and the first step was taken to determine today's outcome.

"How old are you kid, how can you say so many big truths, I really convince you." Gong Yiji listened to Hu Ye's complaint and shook his head. said I didn't understand.

"Sir, you look like you're only forty or fifty years old, but are you really only forty or fifty? I look like I'm only sixteen or seventeen, but am I really only sixteen or seventeen? ”

Hu Ye shrugged his shoulders and stopped chatting with the public, this guy was purely boring, no one played chess with him, so he came to peep into other people's privacy.

To be precise, Hu Ye has lived for thirty years. The twenty years of the 21st century, plus the years of the Ming Dynasty, can be regarded as having some experience, and it seems that they are also qualified to talk about life.

"What a strange boy. I won't tell you, I'll go and play chess with those old things, although it's better to abuse them this time than to be bored. "The public has already spoken. And then he left.

"Hey."

Hu Ye looked up to the sky and sighed, not knowing whether he was sighing for himself or Zhang Yu.

……

Yun Zichen's army merged with Sheng Yong's army. There were nearly 300,000 people, and Beiping was surrounded again, although the army besieging the city was less than Li Jinglong's before, and there were more people defending the city than before, but this time, no one could say clearly.

"General, are we going to attack the city, or are we going to besiege it but not to attack it?"

Sheng Yong now knows Zhu Yunwen's holy decree and knows that Yun Zichen is planning to resist the decree, but as Yun Zichen's first deputy general, he wants to listen to this boss.

"Attack! Can't let my soldiers die in vain! Otherwise, how will I explain to them when I enter Hades! ”

Yun Zichen's attitude is very resolute, he must destroy Zhu Di, and no matter how bad it is, he will be captured.

"Yes, the last general will prepare." Sheng Yong knew that Yun Zichen had made up his mind, so he took his troops to prepare to attack.

"Hmph, Beiping! In less than a month, I'll take you down! ”

Yun Zichen's arrogance rose in his heart at this moment, what Li Jinglong couldn't do, he Yun Zichen would definitely be able to do.

"Your Highness, Yun Zichen's army has arrived, and it has merged with Sheng Yong's army, and it has surrounded Beiping." Liu Sheng followed Zhu Di to the wall, pointed to the looming military camp a few miles away, and said.

"Is it finally here? Looks like he's pushing me to the brink of extinction. ”

Zhu Di's face was very grim, and now it can be said that it is the most difficult time he has encountered in his life, even more difficult than when he was in Dongchang before.

"Zhu Di, what are you taking me to the city wall for? Do you want me to defend the city for you? Lu Xun followed behind Zhu Di and asked loudly.

"I'm not asking you to defend the city, I'm just going to give you a reason." Zhu Di said.

"What's the truth?" Lu Xun asked.

"History is written by the victors, if I fail, what you saw in Beiping before will become a thing of the past, and it will never be mentioned in history again, and I will become an out-and-out brutal Yan King, how harsh he is to the people of the fiefdom, how he plots rebellion, how he fights in the south and the north, and how he puts the people of the world to death." Zhu Di pointed to the army outside and said, "Similarly, if I win, the actions of all the people in Beiping will go down in history!" Whether it is the Guanting Dam, the Miyun Dam, or their feat of defending the city, they are a group of ordinary people, but they have done what a soldier should do. So I'm not going to let them be forgotten by history, so what about you? ”

Zhu Di pointed to the group of people behind Zhengyang Gate, who were holding their weapons, because they knew that Beiping was besieged again, and this time King Yan personally led them to defend the city, and their enthusiasm was even higher, and they wanted to live and die with Beiping.

Looking at the people under the city wall, Lu Xun fell into deep thought, and Zhu Di didn't bother him, just let him make a decision slowly. (To be continued......)
