"Brother Zhu!" The hull of the ship shook, and he heard an anxious call again, Zhu Yongxing's eyes rounded, and he suddenly raised his head, and his eyes gradually became clearer.

Mengzhu didn't know when she rowed a canoe to the side of the boat, she stood on the boat vividly, looking at Zhu Yongxing earnestly, the affection in her eyes, the worry and anxiety with a slight frown, were fully revealed.

"Stop the boat!" Zhu Yongxing stood up, although he hadn't thought about the future yet, he had already made a decision on one thing, that is, he couldn't follow these people, and going to Ava City was no different from killing himself. And that's what is going to happen soon.

In history, Pan Shirong led the Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers who traveled south by land to the other side of the river in the city of Ava, the capital of Burma. Because of the chaos of people, the king of Burma was uneasy, and he said: "This is not to avoid chaos, but to plot the ears of our country!" Therefore, soldiers were sent to surround them, and forcibly placed these Nanming personnel, regardless of men, women, and children, in the nearby villagers' homes to take care of them, one family at a time, and forbade them to come and go. In an instant, these Nanming people separated their wives, lost their family property, lost their personal freedom, and many lost their lives.

But these reasons are unspeakable, people who travel will always encounter such problems, no one believes what they say, and when something happens, everyone believes it, and the result is irreparable.

"I'm not going to go any further into Burma." Zhu Yongxing faced everyone's stunned expressions, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's not a good idea to flow into a foreign country and live a life under the fence. ”

"Your Highness is too worried, Daming is the suzerain, how can Myanmar have different intentions." Civil official Zhu Yunjin stepped forward to persuade.

"The suzerain, hehe, take refuge in a foreign land, and deceive yourself." Zhu Yongxing pursed his lips and said: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different, and the two ends of the Burmese will not be credible." I advise you not to leave, this is the Burmese border, and you can live a long time when you go back to Yunnan. ”

"The Qing army is strong, and it will be more dangerous to return to Yunnan." Xiong Shirong continued to persuade: "Although the King of Jin is loyal and righteous, he has few soldiers and few generals, and I am afraid that he will not be able to protect us. ”

"Look, in the end, it's still greedy for life and afraid of death. What's this, that's not worrying about your own life, you have to live one day at a time. Zhu Yongxing's thinking became clearer and clearer, and he said with disdain: "You are a general soldier and a soldier, but what about your sword?" If you abandon the soldiers, you are powerless, you can not protect the emperor and the court, and you can't protect yourself. Life and death are in the hands of others, so I am not resigned to fate like you! ”

"Your Royal Highness, you, you-" Zhao Guowei saw that Zhu Yongxing insisted on leaving, so he was so anxious that he stomped his feet and grabbed Zhu Yongxing's sleeve.

"You let it go!" Zhu Yongxing pulled away Zhao Guowei's hand and said hurriedly: "At such an old age, why don't you even understand this truth?" As long as the Ming army is not defeated, Burma will definitely maintain a middle position, and dare not despise the imperial court too much. If the Ming army is defeated, will Burma not be afraid of the Qing army's attack and protect the imperial court? Stop dreaming. Okay, you can go as you want, I won't kill myself with you. ”

Seeing Zhu Yongxing beckoning to her, Mengzhu's face was clouded and foggy, showing a bright smile, and in a few moments, she got on the wooden boat and stretched out a wooden oar to Zhu Yongxing, Zhu Yongxing reached out and grabbed it, and jumped into the canoe.

"Your Highness." The chief soldier Xiong Shirong was ridiculed by Zhu Yongxing and his face was flushed, but seeing that Zhu Yongxing had made up his mind, he took a step forward a little unwillingly, glanced at Mengzhu, and said: "Don't be mistaken by women!" Moreover, you are the emperor's clan, and the last general has the responsibility of protection, if you turn to him, how will the last general explain to the emperor? ”

Zhu Yongxing frowned and glanced at Mengzhu, obviously Xiong Shirong wanted to deviate, and he didn't want to explain this. After a deep groan, he said loudly: "You go back to Qi Your Majesty, today the son abandons the country and goes into exile in Burma, then the banner of restoration of the Ming Dynasty is half down, and there is no hope for the king to be overpowered." If you steal peace and enjoy yourself in the midst of suffering, you will regret it one day. I said that if I want to go back to Yunnan, I will definitely go back. Although there are all difficulties, I will also go to King Li Jin, and then drive away the fishy, repeat Shenzhou, and welcome the return of the country. The gods of all parties are above, if I, Zhu Yongxing, violate this oath, I will be thundered by the sky, and there will be no bones. ”

This passage is very unreasonable, and it can be said that it directly reprimands Emperor Yongli for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and abandoning the country and peace. But the generous statements in the back, coupled with the solemn oath, made these people feel ashamed and did not have the courage to accuse Zhu Yongxing.

"Your Highness - the old slave will also stay and take care of one or two by your side." Zhao Guowei took two steps forward with a bitter face, although he was unwilling in his heart, this old eunuch still had a bit of a love for the master.

Zhu Yongxing shrugged his shoulders indispensably, beckoning Yan Bao to row the canoe over to pick up people.

The canoe sailed away from the wooden boat, and the people on the wooden boat still looked at Zhu Yongxing blankly, they hired a boat to trek and worked hard to find Zhu Yongxing's whereabouts, but they didn't expect this to be the result.

Alas, Zhu Yongxing glanced back, and saw that except for Zhao Guowei, no one followed, so he couldn't help sighing and said in a low voice: "200,000 people are disarmed, and none of them are men." ”

Mengzhu smiled and said crisply: "The poems of the Han family, Ah Zhu likes the most, but what I have read is not quite the same." Go to Azhu's bamboo building, let you see the Chinese characters written by Azhu, the Chinese poems copied, and even the great witch said it was good! ”

"The meaning is right, whether he is 140,000 or 200,000. Oh, you can also do calligraphy, which is better than me. Zhu Yongxing shook his head excitedly, at the beginning of the drastic change, how could he still have the heart to discuss poetry and appreciate calligraphy.

……………

At dusk, Zhu Yongxing, who had been locking himself in the room and meditating, was invited out by Menghe, and came to the big house with a thick grass door, and saw the somewhat strange patriarch again.

After Zhu Yongxing saluted, he sat there and said no more. First, he was a little jealous of this old man, and second, he didn't know what this old man was going to say to him. However, this old man's prophecy has come true, and he really can't leave the village for the time being.

"Exorcise the fishy flesh and repeat the state." The old man opened his eyes and said lightly, "Your Highness said so, right?" ”

The cowhide is blown up! Zhu Yongxing scratched his head, smiled, and said, "Uncle, let you laugh, is my tone a little big?" ”

Hehe, the old man laughed, but he didn't mean to make fun of his demeanor at all, but seemed to be very appreciative.

Sure enough, the old man smiled and said, "It's not big, but it will make me despise." We Mengshan Ke people have an ancient saying: it is difficult to weave a thread, and it is difficult for a person to build a house. There are still hundreds of strong people in the clan, is Your Highness willing to accept this meager strength? ”
