Seeing Li Siqi's sincere and frightened look, Zhang Wuji didn't want to be reluctant, he looked at the woman in the yellow shirt and then said, "Sister Caiwei, since this is your ancestor's residence, then this place will be rewarded to you." ”

Although the woman in the yellow shirt rarely talks on weekdays, she is not a pedantic person, and she then stood up and thanked her: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" ”

At this time, the newspaper came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, General Lan Yu has returned from the southern expedition!" Now I ask to see you outside the palace! ”

Zhang Wuji said: "Our great hero is back, please!" ”

After getting Zhang Wuji's permission, the guards invited Lan Yu into the Water Pavilion.

After Lan Yu finished the three kneeling and nine bowing salutes, he said: "Your Majesty, the ministers live up to Your Majesty's trust, and all the coastal areas of Fujian are attached to us." ”

Zhang Wuji also said: "The general has worked hard, hurry up and give me a seat!" ”

At this time, a new seat had been placed, and Lan Yu thanked him and took his seat.

At this time, Zhao Pusheng said: "Your Majesty, since General Lanyu has returned, then it is almost time for us to leave for Jinling. ”

Before Zhang Wuji could speak, Lan Yu hurriedly asked, "What?" Jinling City was captured? What about my brother-in-law's family? ”

Zhao Pusheng shook his head and said, "General Lan has misunderstood, and now Jinling City is just surrounded by us. Jinling did not fall. As for General Chang Yuchun's family, they have now been taken to rest in Wuchang City. ”

Hearing that her sister's family was fine, Lan Yu was also relieved.

However, Lan Yu also has a question, that is, how did her sister's family get out of danger.

Although Lan Yu is very confident that Zhu Yuanzhang will not tear his face and kill his sister's family, he should not let them go so easily. But how they managed to escape, it's curious.

So Lan Yu also asked this question in public.

And after Zhao Pusheng got Zhang Wuji's consent, he also told the truth of this matter in detail.

It turned out that Mrs. Lan, Lan Yu's sister Mrs. Lan, had already decided that Zhu Yuanzhang was a grasshopper after the autumn, and she couldn't jump for a few days.

So after Lan Yu set out on the expedition, he began to plan the escape of the whole family.

However, although Mrs. Lan has scheming, she is just a powerless woman. Zhu Yuanzhang and his entourage took care of them, and they were very strict. How easy is it to escape?

However, in the end, Chang Yuchun's family members had nobles to help, thanks to Su Mengqing's connections.

When she was in Wuchang City before, Zhang Wuji asked Su Mengqing to legitimize her network of connections and make them completely the eyes and ears of her side.

Although Su Mengqing is in Suzhou City, after the siege of Suzhou City is lifted, she continues to expand and restore her intelligence network while taking care of the daily affairs of Suzhou City.

And Su Mengqing, at Zhao Min's suggestion, began to rebel against some generals and soldiers of the Ming sect under Zhu Yuanzhang.

And the soldiers that Lan Yu brought over were the best candidates to complete this task.

Su Mengqing allocated some money to them and asked them to sneak back to Jinling City to plot against these people, and after these people returned to the city, although most of them were arrested by Zhu Yuanzhang, a small number of them still managed to "lurk".

And they used their connections to contact many former subordinates of Guo Zixing's father and son, and now the situation is reversed, as long as they are individuals, they can see the current situation clearly. Jinling City has been surrounded, and Zhu Yuanzhang's hundreds of thousands of main forces have also been divided and surrounded.

Moreover, the main forces of the Ming army have already driven back, and no matter how strong Zhu Yuanzhang's Huaixi soldiers are, they are no match for these battle-hardened Mingjiao soldiers.

What's more, Liu Futong has also personally arrived at the front line and co-commanded with Zhang Dingbian in the north and south. At this time, many people began to find a way back for themselves.

As the largest Mingjiao department under Zhu Yuanzhang, Chang Yuchun was naturally the first target to be rebelled.

Chang Yuchun is still very resistant to betraying the master, but for the sake of being fellow Mingjiao brothers, he didn't embarrass these spies who came to rebel against him.

But Madame Blue seized the opportunity.

Mrs. Lan had private contact with the people sent by Su Mengqing, and then made a plan to escape privately. After the plan was discussed, everyone began to work together.

Mrs. Lan first drunk Chang Yuchun with wine, and then found someone to tie him up, and then put it into a box, and then covered it with firewood and grass, just like that, Chang 100,000, the king of Kaiping in the Ming Dynasty, was transported out of Jinling City as goods. When the drunken Chang Yuchun woke up, he was already on the warship sent by Zhao Pusheng to pick him up.

In order to get out, Mrs. Lan pretended to go to Zhu Yuanzhang's house to discuss with Mrs. Ma the marriage of her daughter and Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son Zhu Biao.

However, halfway through, the spies of the Ming Sect used a trick to confuse the pearls, using a carriage that was exactly the same as Mrs. Lan's car, and then the fake carriage drove into Zhu Yuanzhang's mansion, and then Mrs. Lan sneaked out of Jinling City with her son Chang Mao and daughter Chang Huan.

Although Madame Lan fled quickly, she was still alerted by the guards under Zhu Yuanzhang, and when they were about to arrive at the river and board the clipper boat that the Ming army answered, the cavalry chasing them arrived.

Several Mingjiao disciples who guarded Madame Lan's departure died tragically on the spot. Despite paying a great price, Mrs. Lan's mother and son also escaped in a small boat without danger.

In the end, the family of four met in Wuchang City.

Although Chang Yuchun was very dissatisfied with his wife's behavior, under the persuasion of Mrs. Lan and the former Ming Sect brothers, he also completely turned against Zhang Wuji. Now the family is happy, waiting for the news of the Northern Expedition after Zhang Wuji's return.

After hearing this, Lan Yu was completely relieved to learn that her sister's family was safe and sound.

Lan Yu said: "Since there is only one place in the south of the Yangtze River now, then Your Majesty, the minister is willing to take the city for Your Majesty as a pioneer!" ”

Zhao Pusheng shook his head at this time and said: "Now Jinling City has become a lonely place, and you can take it without making a big move." Why didn't Your Majesty send someone to talk to Zhu Yuanzhang, believing that we can take Jinling without a fight. ”

Huo Jia, who was sitting at the bottom of the house, said at this time: "I think the general's words are inappropriate! ”

Zhao Pusheng saw Huo Jia speak, and he hurriedly said: "What's wrong, please ask the holy woman for advice." ”

Although Hoga and Daisy do not have official authority, their status is not low.

Hoga and Daisy are both saints of the Ming Sect.

Although these generals are in high positions and powers, they are not disciples of the Ming Sect. In terms of status, they are always one head lower than these high-level Ming Sects.

Because today's son is still the Mingzun sect leader of the Ming Sect, the status of the two holy women in the sect is second only to the sect leader and higher than the two envoys. Theoretically, the two of them are the vice-leaders of the Ming Sect. Of course, Zhao Pusheng has a lot of respect for them.

Huo Jia said at this time: "Your Majesty, you have forgiven Zhu Yuanzhang many times, but this person is a wolf with ambition, such a crime cannot be punished, if you forgive him this time, I am afraid that it will damage the authority of the emperor." ”
