Unexpectedly, Zhu Youlang escaped from the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den, and a more dangerous conspiracy was waiting for him.

Zhu Youlang and his entourage entered Xunjiang Mansion, and Chen Bangfu went to the door to greet him personally.

Chen Bangfu is a burly man, with a thick beard and a smiling face, strictly speaking, a smiling tiger. But he is good at disguise, and he looks convinced and sincere, and no one can see his unforeseen intentions.

Zhu Youlang knows a little about this person, he is a son of an official eunuch, Chongzhen won the martial arts by improper means, his character is inferior, and he is good at playing conspiracy, so as to win many opportunities to be promoted and make a fortune, as if he has become a prince of one side.

"Zhang Shoufu, you can quickly vacate the room in the mansion and let the emperor and the ministers live down." After Chen Bangfu welcomed Zhu Youlang into the mansion, he immediately arranged for the stationing.

Looking at Chen Bangfu's enthusiastic appearance, while waiting for the people in the palace to vacate the room, change the bedding, and add utensils, the accompanying ministers whispered: "The emperor chose to move to Xunzhou, which is really a wise move. ”

The four or five people in the Xunjiang Mansion were busy for several hours, and finally vacated the room of Zhu Youlang and the officials accompanying him, and settled everyone down.

Zhu Youlang lives in the East Courtyard, not far from the Xunjiang River. The east courtyard is a single courtyard, as soon as you enter the door is the living room, Zhu Youlang's room on the right, there is a companion room next door, and there are two small bedrooms on the left.

In order to escort Zhu Youlang, the eunuch Li Guotai arranged for Zhang Yi, the commander of the military department, Cai Zong, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Zheng Yongyuan, the Marquis of Wu'an, and two guards to accompany him to the East Courtyard.

Jiao Lian, the Duke of Xuanguo, and Wen Anzhi, a university scholar, lived in the West Courtyard, and due to the limited housing, the other accompanying officials could only live in the same room with two or three people, barely coping with it for a while.

In order to make enough of the "loyalty" play, Chen Bangfu arranged for the kitchen to make a sumptuous dinner for Zhu Youlang and the accompanying ministers.

The banquet had eight dishes and one soup, and there was also rice wine for a while. In the era of war and chaos, especially these days when Guilin was under siege, this dinner can be called luxurious and gracious.

After everyone took their seats, Chen Bangfu held the wine bowl and toasted Zhu Youlang: "I wish the emperor a healthy dragon, and the ministers will faithfully follow the emperor and live and die together with the Yongli Dynasty." ”

Chen Bangfu said that he was a toast, but it was better to say that he was acting a "loyal" scene in front of the emperor, and he also played this sycophant very well.

"Good! Good! Aiqing has such determination, I am happy, this bowl, I drank it. Zhu Youlang drank a bowl of wine slowly.

Chen Bangfu toasted the emperor's wine, and then toasted the ministers such as Xuanguo Gong Jiao Lian and University Shi Wen'an one by one, enthusiastically expressing the friendship of the landlords.

A meal and a bowl of wine can be regarded as diluting the horror of fleeing all the way.

During the dinner, a thunderclap rolled in, a rare occurrence in winter, followed by heavy rain.

At the end of the dinner, the rain did not stop, but became heavier and heavier.

Li Guotai escorted Zhu Youlang to the East Courtyard with an umbrella, and Zhang Yi, Cai Zong, Zheng Yongyuan and others also followed closely to the East Courtyard to escort him.

When he arrived at the East Courtyard, Li Guotai lit the tung oil lamp on the bedside.

"Your Majesty, please be safe, the ministers are waiting outside." Li Guotai asked An to retreat.

Zhu Youlang leaned on the bed and looked up at the window, which was pouring rain.

He suddenly thought of the five divine pictures left by Zhu Cijiao, the two pictures of "gold" and "wood" have been revealed, and one of them seems to be a painting of a rainy night, is there any hint of the prince's picture.

He hurriedly took the briefcase he carried with him from the bedside, took out the envelope with "The Emperor's Secret Storage" written on it, and found the picture named "Water" from the five pictures.

Zhu Youlang has seen this picture countless times, and no matter how he looked at it in the past, he couldn't understand the secret it contained.

Windows, lights, rainstorms, ropes.

This is the case.

Tonight, Zhu Youlang seemed to see the roll call.

He looked around the room, the lights were flickering, and the rain was pouring outside the window......

I suddenly felt that the "water" picture left by Zhu Cijiao was painted in this scene.

Zhu Youlang suddenly woke up to the fact that he couldn't realize the password of this picture in the past because he was not in this scene.

Zhu Cijiao didn't come to this scene, how could he have painted this scene two years ago?

There must be a hint in the dark, something must happen tonight, there must be danger, otherwise there must be a hint from the girl.

Zhu Youlang looked at the divine map again, and his eyes fell on "a few people outside the window holding ropes sneakily".

Looking at the picture, he raised a series of questions:

What are these sneaky people doing with ropes?

Are you going to kidnap me?

Why did you kidnap me?

Who is going to kidnap me?

These problems were connected in series, pondered one by one, and solved one by one, and Zhu Youlang finally realized the secret of the "water" diagram:

Chen Bangfu, the Duke of Qingguo, wanted to plot a rebellion and surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and conspired to kidnap Zhu Youlang and present it to Kong Youde as a gift.

Zhu Youlang broke out in a cold sweat, he stuffed the picture into an envelope and put it in his briefcase.

Chen Bangfu is insidious, the surface is not leaky, and there is a knife to kill the monarch hidden behind his back, and he really wants to break his body into thousands of pieces.

However, Zhu Youlang, who fled from Guilin, only had more than 20 officials in his entourage, and was not Chen Bangfu's opponent at all.

Now the entire Xunjiang Mansion is under the support and control of Chen Bangfu, and Zhu Youlang's accompanying officials are almost powerless.

Chen Bangfu still has thousands of soldiers, once Chen Bangfu notices that there is a bit of turmoil, he will definitely attack Zhu Youlang.

Zhu Youlang just escaped from the tiger's mouth of the Qing soldiers and fell into the wolf's den of Chen Bangfu.

Now, what to do?

Escape!

Run!

Escape before Chen Bangfu notices!

The five divine maps left by Zhu Cijiao are actually a road map for escape.

At this time, it was already a child, and the rainstorm outside the window was like a note.

The entire Xunjiang Mansion fell asleep.

cough, cough; Ahem, ahem –

Zhu Youlang coughed a few times.

Li Guotai gently pushed the door in.

"Your Majesty, what do you command?"

"Chen Bangfu wants to kidnap me and join the enemy, you inform the guards, get ready, and escort me out of here as soon as possible."

Zhu Youlang commanded in a low voice.

"Hey, the minion will arrange it."

Li Guotai woke up Zhang Yi, Cai Zong, and Zheng Yongyuan: "Pack up your salute immediately, and the emperor will transfer immediately." ”

Then, Li Guotai arranged for the guards: "You go quietly and kill the guards in the guard room." ”

The two guards crept into the guard room and quickly took out the two guards.

The guards were at the door of the doorway, waving to Li Guotai.

Li Guotai and the other six people held umbrellas and unknowingly escorted Zhu Youlang out of Xunjiang Mansion.

Braving the pouring rain overnight, it moved to Nanning.

The "fire" picture left by Zhu Cijiao allowed Zhu Youlang to successfully escape from the wolf's den.

Early the next morning, Chen Bangfu found that Zhu Youlang had escaped, and his true face was exposed.

Chen Bangfu couldn't catch Zhu Youlang, so he killed Jiao Lian, the Duke of Xuanguo, in a fit of rage, and all the belongings of the entourage ministers were also looted.

Subsequently, Chen Bangfu surrendered to Kong Youde, and the Qing army occupied the Xunjiang River without a single soldier, and Nanming lost another territory.

These encounters of the Southern Ming Dynasty were known to Zhu Cijiao, who was cultivating far away in the mountains.

Kong Youde, Chen Bangfu and these scum of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cijiao recorded them one by one, and when he grew up, these old accounts would be settled one by one.
