Chapter 261: The Long Night

Ertai is obviously not a stupid person, listening to Liu Hongyu say this, it stands to reason in his heart that the army has just arrived, and it is the best policy to take advantage of the fact that Changsha City is not prepared, but why does the Ming army under the city not make any attack or provocation when it arrives at the city but is stationed more than ten miles away, is it waiting for reinforcements to come, you must know that the siege war is about time, and the defenders can afford to delay the attacking side but cannot last, so, what does the Ming army want to do?

Qi Ertai couldn't figure it out, Liu Hongyu was also a monk of the second zhang, the two of them pondered for a long time, and finally Liu Hongyu smiled and said: "No matter what, Changsha City has time to breathe a sigh of relief, as long as the reinforcements come, at least there is still a fight." ”

Qi Ertai nodded: "What the lord said is that he will patrol the city in the next place." ”

Qi Ertai got up to say goodbye, Liu Hongyu sighed slightly, returned to the inner house, and commanded his family to continue to pack up and prepare for escape, his hands were stained with the blood of his compatriots, stifling many anti-Qing resistance, and he knew that the Ming army would not let go of himself, therefore, on the day of the city breaking, he could take advantage of the chaos to quickly change into the people's clothes and flee out of the city with his family. There are still some acquaintances in the capital, the family tree has deep roots, and the relationship with Xiaozhuang is excellent, and he will definitely be able to save his life, Liu Hongyu firmly thought, he is a person from the Blue Banner of the Han Army, and he is in the same banner as the family in the capital, plus he Liu Hongyu and Yang Liang have suppressed bandits together, and it is impossible for such a friend to ignore him.

A few days later, the three armies under the city of Changsha gathered, and the 100,000 army looked at Changsha City, putting great pressure on the green battalions on the Changsha city wall, during this period, the Ming army also organized several attacks, most of them bombarded the city with artillery, making the green camp in the city uneasy, and the city wall was also blown up and collapsed in many places, but the Ming army did not officially send troops, in the mountains to the east of Changsha, a Ming army with a grinding knife was hidden in it under the organization of Li Xiao, Just wait for the fish to take the bait one by one.

Haidu City is prosperous as always, since the rise of industry and commerce, the entire Haidu City is almost surrounded by this strong commercial atmosphere, businessmen have become many people's yearning for occupations, business has become a very decent activity, and even commercial Di Bao sells much better than academic and political gossip Di Bao, the urban area continues to expand, so far, due to the expansion of the urban area and the opening area, some neighboring counties have to tear down the city wall, become a district of Haidu City, 500,000 people due to the general regulations to recruit workers from all over the Nanyang, A large number of peasants poured into the cities to work, and the number of workers became 700,000, and everywhere was full of vitality.

Compared with the bustling city, the palace in the middle is as quiet as ever, Qu Ci's stomach is arching day by day, Zhu Jun and Zhou Xue'er go over to say hello every day, but the princess Anne is very lonely, she can't stay in this place for a day, but she can't go out, she can only sigh in the cage full of flowers, and suddenly she looks a lot more mature.

Zhu Jun is also as big as a fight, in order to take care of Qu Ci, talk more with her, cancel the early dynasty a few times, suddenly the court exploded, the ministers feel that this is a symbol of mediocrity, everything has to have a habit, the reason for canceling the early dynasty seems to be sufficient, but once or twice can be, the number of times is too much, maybe this person has inertia in the future, what if you don't go to court? Several ministers have jointly played a few times, but there is no effect, Zhu Jun is still the same, in fact, it is not that Zhu Jun is unwilling to be a director, when the emperor is actually not in charge of much, except for some natural disasters and major projects and military needs to be asked, there is really not much of a matter, every morning such a grand morning court, a lot of trembling, how can not cut to the topic, chattering for a long time can not discuss a fart, the real solution is still in the cabinet, so Zhu Jun is more inclined to go to the cabinet to ask about affairs, But Zhu Jun's ignorance made a group of old men unhappy, so more people played.

Zhu Jun now has experience in dealing with these ministers, the more you deal with them, the more energetic they become, and they start to turn over the old bottom as they talk, saying that the emperor wants to be chased to Sichuan when you were in Guangxi, and then ran to Yunnan, and finally fled into Myanmar, why is this? Because you didn't pay attention to government affairs at the time, now the emperor has finally worked hard and made great changes, but he can't go back to the old way. Zhu Jun really can't do anything about these people, as soon as you say it, he starts crying, crying Taizu, crying the emperor, anyway, it's just to make trouble for you.

So Zhu Jun ignored them at all. I don't care about it. Even if someone hits the pillar on the Luan Hall in person. Zhu Jun will also keep his face changing.

It's been a long time. The ministers didn't pay attention to Zhu Jun when they saw it. I also feel bored. All of a sudden, it calmed down again. Zhu Jun only pays attention to some military information every day. When I saw Li Xiong playing a serial scheme and was recognized. I can't help but admire the depth of this person's thoughts. If it weren't for Li Dingguo's carefulness. I'm afraid this time north

It's dangerous.

Zhu Jun thought about it for a long time before deciding to meet this Li Xiong. This man is resourceful. Even if you cure other sins, you have to look at it. Take a look at who your opponent is.

By this time it had been four months since the army had set out. Spring is gone. The weather is getting hotter. Zhu Jun specially weaved a mat for Qu Ci to rest. Zhu Jun didn't know if there was a mat in this era. Anyway, there is no land in Haidu City. He also specifically asked the eunuchs. Let them go out and look for it. Nothing came of it. Therefore, Zhu Jun called a few carpenters. according to his will. Burmese is embroidered. So the material is not an issue. And the production process is not too difficult. Half a day's work. A mattress was made. Zhu Jun asked the carpenters to make a few more. Except for leaving it to Qu Cidi. and Zhou Xueer. Furthermore. That Princess Anne is going to give you a copy too. Although it is a political marriage. And the two are not married. I heard that a group of old things in the court asked the eunuchs every day if the emperor had ever been to Princess Anne's basement for the night. It's very attentive. But Zhu Jun didn't want to snub her.

Wait for the mattress to be ready. Zhu Jun hit the craftsman for a few taels of silver. And there is no superfluous reward. Just say a word about this skill and reward you. After several craftsmen left the palace, they immediately realized the business opportunity. Within three days. Haidu Kai District opened a mat workshop.

Qu Ci and Zhou Xue'er received the mat and let people wash and lie down for a while, naturally said okay, Princess Anne was a little angry when she received this gift, but at night let the maids cushion on the bed, and did feel the slightest coolness through the back, in this scorching Nanyang immediately felt a burst of coolness, in the dead of night, Princess Anne's heart also calmed down, loneliness spread throughout her body, although she was accompanied by a cloud, but still could not find a person to talk to, she got up gently, pushed open the paper window in the attic, The full moon outside the window shone on the tip of her upturned nose and sprinkled with tears swirling in her eyes.

This may be what the Orientals call providence, Princess Anne's heart fluctuates, she deliberately pursues freedom, away from those noble princes who are pretentious, but she has fallen into a whirlpool, a tighter cage, she has no way to break free, she can't see the road around her, she can only be at the mercy of others, and what is even more hateful is that the person who manipulated her doesn't seem to care about her, although she has come once, but the next few months seem to look at her, she hates this man, and she is jealous of this man's ignorance of her, From the moment she was born, everyone was revolving around her, and for the first time she felt the taste of being cold, it was very uncomfortable.

Anne put on a dress as thin as a light gauze, pushed open the attic door, and there were several maids' bedrooms on the side, as soon as she called someone to come, she did not summon, because she did not want to alarm others, she just wanted to walk alone in the middle of the night, to vent the anguish in her heart.

Anne descended the attic, and there was a concrete-paved road lined with flowers, and farther away were gazebos and false stones, which looked beautiful in the moonlight. Anne walked aimlessly, it was quiet, she could hear her own heartbeat in the quiet, and at this time her heartbeat was the most peaceful, like a sleeping baby.

Anne turned around a long corridor, the oriental Langfang was beautifully carved, Anne felt like a fairy walking in the night, the night breeze blowing, bringing a touch of coolness, but also blowing a wisp of floral fragrance.

Anne felt more and more that the vastness of this palace seemed to have no end, and there were a few eunuchs who were patrolling the night carrying lanterns, and Anne was not good at alarming them, so she deliberately avoided them, and could not see clearly at night, and those eunuchs who were on night patrol thought that they were some palace maids who were in a hurry at night, so they did not ask much.

After the moon cave, the building here seemed much larger than the attic where she lived, and she thought to herself, maybe it would be nice to be able to get out of here, no matter how beautiful this place was, she didn't want to stay.

Soon, she had a problem, she seemed to be lost. Yes, at night, she got lost. She tried to find her way back, but to her eyes, it seemed like it was almost the same, nothing special. The more she walked, the more she felt that something was wrong, and wanted to ask the eunuch who was patrolling the night, but she was a little negative, and she didn't want people to know that she would get lost here.

After turning another moon hole, Anne smelled a smell of smoke, a strange smell of smoke, and in a gazebo not far away, two figures seemed to be cooking something on the fire, a porcelain pot on top, a stove below, a person lying on his stomach to fan the fire, and a porcelain stove on his head was very close.

It was none of her business, and Anne continued on her way, even thinking maliciously that maybe these two sneaky guys would burn down the palace and she might be free

"Hey...... What is your name? Go get some water. The people in the pavilion seemed to see her and yelled at her.

Anne quickened her pace, this person spoke Chinese, she didn't understand (to be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in.) , more chapters, support for work, support
