Zhu Gaosui kept walking around the courtyard, looking up from time to time, and he could hear the sound of cannons outside the city in the distance.

He was also assigned a task to defend the city during the Jing Dynasty, but there were not many generals in the city at that time.

Now Zhu Di's henchmen and generals are all in Beiping, so he doesn't have his share.

But Zhu Gaosui was more anxious than ever.

The city is about to be destroyed, will the second brother trouble me?

I have to hurry up and show goodwill to the second brother.

At the beginning of Zhu Gaoxu's army, he felt that his second brother was killing himself for a while, and immediately expressed his support for his father.

In his opinion, no matter how fierce the second brother fights, rebellion will only kill himself.

But in a blink of an eye, it has only been less than two years, and the second brother has already come to the city, and his father is about to finish.

It was useless for him to regret it now, and he had to express his support for his father back then.

"Bang" At this moment, the door opened from the back of the courtyard, and it turned out that he was now in the backyard of his palace.

The courtyard door was wide open, and Huang Yan hurriedly came in from outside.

"King, King." Huang Yan ran to him panting.

"You dog minion, have you found anyone?" Zhu Gaosui said urgently.

"Found it, found it." Huang Yan patted his chest, relieved himself several times before he recovered his breath, and Zhu Gaosui was half dead in a hurry, almost wanting to kick him.

"In the south of the city, the 'people's rice shop', the slave maid still remembers that it was opened by the shopkeeper Mao who supported the King of Han back then, and the shopkeeper Mao left after the martyrdom and changed the owner."

"But the rice shop is still in business, and the slave and maid deliberately went to investigate, and sure enough, it is still - the people of the King of Han are here." In fact, he is no longer the King of Han, but Huang Yan doesn't dare to scream.

"Okay." Zhu Gaosui was overjoyed, and he didn't care how Huang Yan found out, so he hurriedly asked, "What did they say?" ”

"The other party wants to see the king." Huang Yan said quietly.

"Coming?" Zhu Gaosui said excitedly.

"It's right outside the hospital."

"Please."

After a while, a middle-aged man walked in like a businessman.

The person who came claimed to be surnamed Yang, was a subordinate of Mao's shopkeeper back then, and stayed in Beiping.

"This king and the second brother have always had a deep relationship, and after the second brother raised the army, the king's statement was also helpless-" Zhu Gaosui hurriedly explained.

"Your Majesty wants to ask the king for help." The shopkeeper surnamed Yang said directly.

"Huh?" Zhu Gaosui was stunned: "What can this Wang -—— help?" Then he said: "If you can help the second brother, of course you are willing." ”

Shopkeeper Yang quietly took out an object from his sleeve.

Zhu Gaosui looked at it fixedly, like a short cylinder, with strings and rubber bands and something like that, a bit like a crossbow and not like it, his face changed greatly: "This-this-what-"

"It's a Hidden Arrow." Shopkeeper Yang said: "The king can hide in the sleeve of his right hand, and when he sees Zhu Di, pull it with his left hand." ”

Shopkeeper Yang demonstrated, the horn, with a soft sound, an arrow in the bamboo tube shot fifteen steps away, and then fell to the ground.

The small sleeve arrow, shot fifteen paces away, is obviously extraordinary.

"Hiss" Zhu Gaosui almost screamed when he heard it, staring at Shopkeeper Yang in disbelief, he really couldn't believe that the second brother actually let him do this?

"There is poison on the arrow, you don't have to hit the vital point, just break his skin." Yang shopkeeper said.

"Second brother-—— second brother-" Zhu Gaosui's face turned red, ashamed, angry and afraid.

How could the second brother let me do such a thing? Am I such a murderer of my father?

Zhu Gaosui wanted to say this.

But Zhu Gaoxu knows Zhu Gaosui too well, this bastard wanted to poison Zhu Di in the original history, so don't look at him as the youngest, but he is the most vicious.

Zhu Gaosui stammered and couldn't speak, but Huang Yan asked quietly at this time: "If the king does this, what reward will the king of Han have?" ”

Zhu Gaosui's face really froze, and his eyes were slightly bright as he looked at Shopkeeper Yang.

Shopkeeper Yang immediately said: "There is a place overseas, called Da O (Australia), the area is about the same size as our Ming Dynasty, Your Majesty named the king of Australia, a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, and a hereditary garrison." ”

"What? Overseas? Zhu Gaosui was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

Shopkeeper Yang said: "That place is too far away from the Ming Dynasty, the sea has to walk for a year and a half, the king arrives in Taiao, the court can't control you, the area is about the same as the entire Ming Dynasty, on the surface it is a subject country, in fact, it is equivalent to a country of its own." ”

"Tai O has suitable weather and abundant products, if it weren't for His Majesty's own brother, His Majesty would not have given it to the King."

Far from Daming? Equal to self-reliance? The area is about the same as that of Daming? Zhu Gaosui's face was full of shock when he heard this, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

As Zhu Gaoxu thought, if he said that the Ming Dynasty would be sealed casually, give you more money, and give you more Tian, Zhu Gaosui didn't believe it.

Now that Zhu Gaoxu said something that is more difficult to accept, Zhu Gaosui will believe it.

Just when Zhu Gaosui hesitated and wanted to ask in detail.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please." There was a voice in the distance, which side of the emperor wanted to discuss the matter, and he looked for Zhu Gaosui to go over.

——

Zhu Gaosui took Huang Yan into the imperial city of Beiping, the imperial city that had not been completely repaired looked a little dilapidated, he looked at it while walking, there were not many defenders in the imperial city, because most of the people were in front to support the defenders.

Many of the defenders sat listlessly on the ground, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly got up, as if they did not have the appearance of the Beijing Camp Forbidden Army.

Presumably, they were all afraid of the city being breached, and they knew that it would definitely be breached.

"It took so much money to get to this point." Zhu Gaosui suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "If the money is spent on additional salaries, the sergeants will be so sluggish." ”

Zhu Gaosui, the imperial city of Beiping, also disagreed, he and his eldest brother Zhu Gaochi like the prosperous Jiangnan flower world, who is willing to move the Jingshi to the poor place of Beiping.

Huang Yan didn't dare to make a sound, just followed closely behind him.

However, Huang Yan also admires Zhu Gaosui in his heart, he is really bold.

actually dared to take the arrow in the sleeve of the shopkeeper Yang.

Because Zhu Gaosui believes that as long as Zhu Di is shot, Zhu Di will die, and the people around Zhu Di, except for a few irons, will definitely surrender immediately, and he himself will be safe.

Huang Yan doesn't think so, if Zhu Neng is still by Zhu Di's side, he must kill Zhu Gaosui.

Unless, of course, the hardcore are all defending the city at the front.

The two of them had their own hearts, and they came outside the Wuying Hall in a while.

Wu Yingdian stood Hou Xian.

"Meet the King." Hou Xian stepped forward to pay respects.

A smile squeezed out of Zhu Gaosui's face: "Father-in-law Hou is polite." ”

Hou Xian was stunned, because Zhu Gaosui ignored him when he saw him before.

He also quickly squeezed out a smile.

After Zhu Gaosui entered, Hou Xian found that Huang Yan was looking at him with a smile, and he was inexplicably wonderful, this master and servant are all wrong today?

After Zhu Gaosui entered, he found that Zhu Di was sitting there with a gloomy face, he stepped forward to meet his father first, and then stood carefully on the side.

There are not many people in the hall, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yuan Hui, Jin Zhong, Xue Lu, Tan Qing, Liu Rong, and everyone else is not there, and the generals should be guarding the city in front.

"Gao Sui sits." Zhu Di said casually, and after a while, Yao Guangxiao and the prince came together.

At this time, almost all of them came, Zhu Di looked at everyone, and suddenly sighed: "I see that this city can't be defended." ”

"Your Majesty?" There was a panic all around, and several civil officials, such as Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, were even more panicked.

Zhu Di suddenly pulled out a knife from behind him, and threw it on the table, startling everyone around.

Zhu Di's eyes were red at this time, and tears flowed out: "The rebel son is a big rebel, and the people who are named in the text want to kill me, and I am in a catastrophe, but the brothers have been loyal and loyal to me for so long, I can't affect the brothers." ”

"I think very clearly, anyway, I can't escape death, I can't hurt my brothers, come on, you take my head away, and lower Gao Xu, Gao Xu will definitely tolerate you for the sake of my head's face."

"Your Majesty." Xue Lu knelt down and cried bitterly: "The minister is willing to advance and retreat with His Majesty, live and die together, and fight with the traitor to the end." ”

"I will die and will not surrender." Tan Qing knelt down and cried bitterly.

Liu Rong, Jin Zhong, and Yuan Heng knelt down one after another, the prince, Yang Shiqi and others also knelt, and even Yao Guangxiao knelt down.

The people who knelt on the ground at the scene, everyone expressed their attitudes that they would live and die with His Majesty and fight to the end.

Zhu Di quietly observed everyone's expressions, and guessed in his heart, who is most likely to want to surrender to the rebel?

At this moment, Hou Xian reported that he was about to come in.

"Come in Hou Xian." Zhu Di looked at Hou Xian with a strange expression.

In the past, it was impossible for this eunuch to come in, unless there was an emergency?

Hou Xian hurriedly ran to his side and whispered something in Zhu Di's ear.

Just as he spoke, Zhu Gaosui, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head slightly, and looked at his right hand.

Zhu Gaosui was a little far away from Zhu Di, about six or seven steps, he was a little panicked in his heart, and he always felt that his legs were weak, as if he couldn't get up.

After all, it was the first time he had done this, and he still killed his old father.

After Zhu Gaosui saw the generals in the main hall, he found that they were all captured by Zhu Gaoxu and put back, so he felt that he could give it a try.

But it was easy to say, but when the real thing came, he was very scared, hesitated, and did not dare to bully him and attack.

Why don't you wait for the meeting to be over, all the generals are gone, and I will stay alone and find another opportunity? Zhu Gaosui thought about it, it was better to be safer like this.

Just when his mind was turning upside down, suddenly.

"Gao Sui." Zhu Di called his name heavily.

Zhu Gaosui raised his head in a slight panic, and saw Zhu Ditie's face blushing, looking at him with great anger.

"Father-Emperor?" Zhu Gaosui stammered.

"Come here." Zhu Di's face was extremely ugly.

Zhu Gaosui hurriedly got up, but he didn't get up for the first time, and his legs were weak.

Hou Xian hurriedly went up and helped him up.

Zhu Gaosui's face was a little pale, and he cautiously took a few steps forward, and when he plopped, he felt his heart beat faster and was very panicked.

"Why is Gao Sui's face so ugly?" Zhu Di looked at him coldly: "Are you sick?" ”

"Erchen, it's a little uncomfortable." Zhu Gaosui said.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Di suddenly asked loudly: "Is it uncomfortable?" Jumping fast? ”

"Ah," Zhu Gaosui's eyes widened in dazed but frightened eyes.

"Not good, exposed?" He exclaimed in his heart, and suddenly remembered what Hou Xian had just said when he came in and said to Zhu Di?

Could it be that Huang Yan betrayed me?
