Chapter Seventy-Seven: Suspicious

"When they are hungry, they will naturally know what to choose the right one!"

Zhu Houzhao smiled indifferently, he has the most say in dealing with people with hard bones.

Those gentry, officials, and scholars who were sent to Liaodong by him, when they first went, none of them were iron-clad and arrogant, claiming that they would never go to farming even if they died, but after starving for a few days, they still had to work, and no one wanted to starve to death.

He believes that the people of Yanwangfu will be no exception, blocking the outside of Beiping, and when they run out of food and grass and face a desperate situation, if they still resolutely refuse to surrender, then Zhu Houzhao may change his opinion a little and admire that Beiping is a real man.

"Moreover, don't underestimate the prestige of Yongle Ye, he can succeed in Fengtianjing, and it is not entirely because of the military generals of Beiping."

"He is the core of Beiping."

Zhu Houzhao was full of confidence in Zhu Di, he besieged but did not attack outside, consumed Beiping's grain and grass reserves, Zhu Di disintegrated Beiping's fighting spirit inside, and it won't be long before Beiping will be completely pacified.

"I hope everything goes well, as you say!"

Zhu Gaochi was not interested, the power of a town in Beiping could not resist the imperial army, the defeat was doomed, he didn't want to care, he had a new goal.

"Zhu Houzhao, do you have a way to send me to Beiping."

"What do you want to do?"

Zhu Houzhao was slightly stunned, at this time, Beiping City was not easy to enter, even with the ability of Jinyiwei, it was extremely difficult to send an ordinary person in, not to mention Zhu Gaochi's very obvious body shape.

"I want to see how my dad is doing, by the way......"

By the way, go to see Queen Xu, his mother-in-law.

In the case that Zhu Di is not optimistic about him, it is Queen Xu who has been supporting him, and people say that his throne was won by the good saint Sun Zhu Zhanji, but few people know that his crown prince was awarded because of Queen Xu, so for Queen Xu, Zhu Gaochi has a deep reverence.

Since he came to this world, he wanted to go and see Queen Xu, who was still Princess Yan, even if it was just to say hello. At this point, he couldn't help it!

He is also ready to merge with Zhu Gaochi of this world, and only by merging with Zhu Gaochi of this world can he sneak into the heavily guarded Yanwang Mansion to see his long-missed mother.

"There's no way to get you in yet."

Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said, whether it is Beiping City or Yanwang Mansion, the security must be extremely strict at this time, and it is too difficult and too risky to send people in.

Zhu Gaochi's force is really ordinary, and he took the risk of sending him in, but he might not be chopped alive by an unknown soldier before he saw another Zhu Gaochi!

"Wait a few days, wait for Beiping's guard to relax a little, and I'll find someone to send you in."

Later, Geng Bingwen and Xu Huizu were found, and the two of them led the troops to drain the water around Beiping City, and not a single fly was allowed to fly in.

The strategy of besieging but not attacking was officially carried out.

......

Inside the Yanwang Mansion

Princess Xu, Princess Zhang, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui, Yao Guangxiao, Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng, Xiao Zhu Zhanji and other Yan Wangfu descendants stood in front of Yan Wang's bed, all worried and panicked.

Yan Wang is the core of Yan Wang's Mansion, once Yan Wang has a problem, Yan Wang's Mansion is not far from being finished!

"Doctor, how is the prince?"

Princess Xu anxiously asked the doctor who had just finished diagnosing King Yan's pulse, her hands clasped tightly together, and she was very worried.

"Don't worry, the princess, the prince is just overworked and unconscious, as long as he rests for a few days, he will be fine!"

In fact, the doctor couldn't see what Yan Wang's condition was, but when he saw that Yan Wang was breathing evenly and his pulse was normal, he directly said that he was fine.

But what Yan Wangfu needs at this time is that Yan Wang is safe, everyone invariably breathed a sigh of relief, and the hanging heart was temporarily put down, as long as Yan Wang is safe, Yan Wangfu will not be afraid of all enemies.

Sending the doctor away, Princess Xu immediately couldn't wait to ask everyone what was the reason that would cause King Yan to fall unconscious.

"Tell me more about what happened today?"

Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui, Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and other generals who followed King Yan out of the city looked at each other, and they really didn't know what to say, after all, everything they encountered today was too weird, so they really didn't know where to start.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Princess Xu immediately looked at Zhu Gaoxu: "Gaoxu, you come." ”

"Mother......

Zhu Gaoxu hesitated, and it took him a long time to tell the story clearly.

"The prince is in a coma for some reason, and Zhu Yong, the main general of the court, is missing?"

Princess Xu's phoenix eyebrows furrowed slightly, such a strange and unpredictable situation, Rao is from a family of Jiangmen, she has seen a lot, and she has never heard of it.

"Princess, it's strange that Zhu Yong, the chief general of the court, looks very similar to the prince."

Zhang Yu, the number one general of the Yanwang Mansion, said.

This is not only Princess Xu, but even Yao Guangxiao is confused, King Yan is in a coma, Zhu Yong is missing, and the two are very similar, how much does this contain that they don't know.

It's too weird, it's too psychedelic, and Yao Guangxiao, who is as smart as a demon monk, also has a feeling of powerlessness for a while.

"Everyone is tired, let's go back and rest first!"

Seeing that the more they discussed, the more suspicious points there were, in order to ensure that the army's morale was not disturbed, Princess Xu hurriedly asked everyone to retreat.

Everyone went back to rest, and only the unconscious Zhu Di, Princess Xu, Yao Guangxiao, and Zhu Gaochi were left in the room.

"Master, do you think today's events are really weird, or are they ......?"

"Alas......"

Looking at the princess Yan in front of her, who was quite filial and benevolent, outstanding, gentle and benevolent, Yao Guangxiao sighed deeply and said: "Zhang Yu, what they said should be true, they have followed the prince for many years, they are loyal to the prince, and it is impossible to lie." ”

"There are too many suspicious points about the strange events that happened today, and the poor monk has no clue for a while."

His expression was extremely haggard, from the rebirth of Emperor Taizu, the conquest of the imperial army, to the coma of King Yan on the battlefield for no reason, all the problems made him lose his mental strength, and he felt that the situation was completely out of his control.

Yao Guangxiao, King Yan's most trusted think tank, said so, and Princess Xu didn't think much about it anymore, and the top priority was to wait for King Yan to wake up and make further plans.

The imperial army has besieged the city, adopting the tactics of besieging but not attacking, if it can't come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible, Beiping will have to be trapped alive sooner or later.

"Gao Chi, the heavy responsibility of guarding Beiping will be handed over to you, don't let the imperial army take advantage of it, and arrest suspicious people immediately if they find them."

"Now that your father is unconscious, everything is up to you!"

"Victory or defeat is a matter of survival."

"The child understands."

Before Zhu Gaochi had time to drink saliva to relieve himself, he immediately went to the city wall to set up defenses.

Yao Guangxiao also went to contact some old friends, hoping to get some information about the imperial court from those old friends and reformulate the strategic plan, he regarded King Yan as the greatest help to achieve his dreams, and he would never give up until the last moment.

In the room, only Princess Xu was left sighing helplessly at the unconscious Zhu Di.
