Chapter 40 Survival in Death, Step by Step

Chongzhen finished explaining everything in his hand, recalled that he didn't notice it, and went home alone.

He used to be frugal, and he dressed very plainly if he had nothing to do on weekdays. Just like today, he simply wrapped his head in a net towel and put on a blue robe, and no one recognized him when he walked on the road.

Chongzhen walked slowly on the side of the road, for fear of hindering the civilians who were rushing out of the city, and occasionally saw a familiar face passing by in the crowd, looking at his eyes dodging, they should all be spies of the Imperial Detective Division.

Wang Chengen arranged for people to secretly guard, although this move was not approved by him, but it was a heart of protector, and Chongzhen was not good to shirk it, but he didn't see it.

"After all, it's a grass-created team, and the kung fu of stalking is still a little worse." Chongzhen was thinking about the spy war plot in the future, and was considering whether to spend some time training these people.

In fact, although the method of the spies of the Imperial Investigation Division is a little immature, it is not so much that it can be seen through at a glance, and the reason why Chongzhen can find out is related to his current perception and memory, but he himself does not know.

The war is imminent, in order to preserve the physical strength of the soldiers, no more training will be done from today, except for those on duty at the city gate, the battalion soldiers are resting in the barracks.

Yang Boxian was not idle, today His Majesty sent someone to distribute new military uniforms and weapons to the soldiers of the regimental training camp, and he is leading the patrol in the city to maintain order.

Chongzhen arranged tasks for everyone, and his henchmen were even more reluctant to leave all the expatriates, plus he had disbanded the personal soldiers sent by Jiang Jiu to protect him before.

The entire Song Mansion, which should be called the Zhu Mansion now, is deserted, except for the housekeeper Yang and the family members of some helpers, only Wang Laojiu, the porter who is sitting at the door and dozing.

Wang Laojiu was an old man who watched the door in the mansion earlier, and later Chongzhen thought he was interesting and brought him back to the mansion together.

At first, Wang Laojiu, who had just known the identity of the emperor, trembled every day, and he didn't dare to be sloppy for a moment when he looked at the door, and he didn't know if he was old or Chongzhen was usually too quiet and quiet, and he was deflated after not holding out for a few days, and he dozed off all day except for dozing.

Wang Laojiu sat in the porter and slept soundly, his mouth was "snorting", and he even forgot to close the door, leaking half a large slit.

Chongzhen easily walked in through the crack in the door, and when he saw Wang Laojiu's appearance, he couldn't help but smile and shook his head, but he didn't wake him up.

In the distance, Yang happened to be standing in the courtyard, and suddenly saw His Majesty walking into the door, and hurriedly came to greet him, and following His Majesty's eyes, she also saw Wang Laojiu who was sleeping.

The Yang family is not angry, and the whole house belongs to this Wang Laojiu's favorite laziness, and now he has been arrested by His Majesty, isn't it his own dereliction of responsibility? turned around and made a gesture to wake him up and teach him a hard lesson.

"No, let him continue to sleep." Chongzhen smiled and said softly.

Seeing that His Majesty did not mean to blame, Yang was a little relieved, holding his left knee with both hands and bending his right leg slightly, squatting to ask Chongzhen for peace.

Chongzhen nodded and asked, "Is there still food in the house?" ”

"I have always prepared miles for Your Majesty, and the slave and maid will go to the room." Yang said that he trotted to the room to prepare for food.

....

Chongzhen sat at the dining table, Yang himself came with a food box, followed by two subordinates who took out the food in the box one by one and put it on the table, but three or two nests had a bowl of gruel and a plate of pickles.

The Yang family knows that His Majesty hates extravagance and waste, and the meals in the house are prepared according to this criterion, don't feel that these coarse tea and light rice are shabby, this is Your Majesty's favorite.

Chongzhen was about to eat with a bowl and chopsticks in his hand, and the Yang family, who was serving beside him, whispered: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has tried it for Your Majesty on her own initiative." ”

Chongzhen turned his head sideways to look at the Yang family, and asked suspiciously, "Where did the younger brothers and sisters in this palace learn the rules?" ”

His Majesty is commensurate with his younger brother and sister, how dare the Yang family regard himself as a younger brother and sister, and he replied respectfully: "The slave's aunt was originally a female official of the Sixth Bureau, so the slave and maid know some of the rules of the palace. ”

Before the emperor eats, there are indeed rules for female officials of the Shangshi Bureau to test drugs, but now Chongzhen's mind is different from the past, and he doesn't care much about these old habits, but people who really have a heart will remember it.

Alas, in later generations, he often said that he would defeat the feudal remnants, who would have thought that he was the biggest feudal leader in his previous life, Chongzhen suddenly cried and laughed, and laughed at himself in his heart.

Chongzhen said simply: "Okay." He chewed and swallowed slowly, he had a light taste and didn't like meat, so he ate it happily with pickles.

After eating and drinking some tea, Chongzhen instructed Yang to go about her business and take a walk in the courtyard rubbing her lower abdomen, which is also the way to maintain health.

I felt that it was almost digested, and I went into the study and didn't come out again.

At four o'clock, the sunset chickens return to their nests.

Chongzhen was a little tired from reading and reading, so he took a nap on the table with sleepiness.

And Wang Laojiu had just woken up, stretched out his arms and stretched his waist, "Ahh

"Which ball day opened the door." Seeing that the sky was dark, Wang Laojiu lit the lantern and prepared to tie the door, but he didn't think that the door would move, so he pushed it straight inside.

Wang Laojiu jumped back, looked sideways, saw that there was no one outside the door, and muttered: "Ho, where did the demon wind come from?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, in the blink of an eye, the empty door was suddenly full of people, and Wang Laojiu could faintly see the former's face through the light, heh! Isn't this Commander Chen?

The person who came was Chen Zhuo, who was followed by all the soldiers, Wang Laojiu and Chen Zhuo were also familiar with each other, and they were about to say hello, but another person walked in from next to Chen Zhuo and kicked Wang Laojiu in the stomach.

Wang Laojiu was hit hard in the abdomen, threw the lantern to the ground, bent over and retched while holding his stomach, unable to speak.

The expression on Chen Zhuo's face flashed, and he immediately returned to his expressionless appearance.

"It has to be caught alive." Yang Zhenwei kicked Wang Laojiu away and ordered everyone behind him, Chen Zhuo had to grit his teeth and lead the team to rush into the mansion and go straight to Chongzhen's bedroom.

"Uh.... You guys..... It's 10,000 .... Hooray. Wang Laojiu leaned over, slowly raised his left hand, and pointed at Yang Zhenwei.

Yang Zhenwei didn't bother to pay attention to him and was about to follow in, but found that his right leg couldn't move, and he was being held by Wang Laojiu kneeling on the ground, his face against his thigh.

Wang Laojiu survived the initial severe pain, his tongue recovered, and he said slowly: "This is the residence of the Long Live Lord, you are rebelling!" ”

Yang Zhenwei pulled out his waist knife and pointed at Wang Laojiu's face to look at him, as if to warn.

Wang Laojiu didn't let go at all, and shouted as if he was panicked: "Rebellion!" Conspiracy! Someone rebelled! The voice echoed in the courtyard.

Chen Zhuo led the team to find Chongzhen in the dormitory, and immediately ordered the soldiers to search all the rooms.

Chongzhen woke up passively, rubbed his sleepy eyes and woke up slowly, and was about to walk out of the study to see what was going on, when the door was kicked open with a "bang".

Several soldiers rushed into the house and quickly shouted: "Here! He formed a wall to block the door, and looked at Chongzhen with an anxious face. Chongzhen was calm as usual, neither angry nor resistant, dragging out a chair and sitting down as if watching a play.

Chen Zhuo squeezed away the soldiers and walked in, knelt down on his right knee and saluted Qianxing, saying, "Long live Lord, offended!" The last three words Chen Zhuo bit very hard, and said word by word.

"I will go by myself, and I will not work for the warriors to get started."
