Chapter 97
You must know that the current Ma Shiying is a real power to invade the government and the opposition!
Even the emperor had to listen to Ma Shoufu's words, not to mention their guards who guarded the city.
"I'll go! Ma Shoufu: What's wrong with this now? Why are you in such a hurry?? ”
"It can't be that there is something big in the court???"
One of the guards standing on the left couldn't help but say curiously.
"Who knows, but look at Ma Shoufu's anxious appearance."
"Maybe something really happened."
Another guard on the right replied.
"Tut-tut, the imperial court doesn't know what's going on lately, a bunch of things."
"Either there are rebels and thieves rebelling, or someone has come to pretend to be the prince."
"Wow! Have you heard about the monk prince too? ”
Hearing what the guard on the left said, the other guard immediately started talking to him in surprise.
"Who doesn't know about this person now, the whole capital is about to go crazy!"
The guard on the left first snorted, then looked left and right.
Seeing that there was no one, he said cautiously.
"The people in the capital say that this is the real prince, and what they say is true!"
"The first emperor really didn't die!"
"No, it won't!"
The guard on the right was taken aback and couldn't help but say.
"Doesn't that mean that the first emperor is really the emperor of Guangdong......
"Shhhh Be quiet!! ”
"You don't want to live!!"
The guard on the left whispered at it.
He was yelled at by the guard on the left, and the guard on the right knew that he shouldn't have said this.
Suddenly looked left and right in a panic.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it scares him when you see it!
I saw an old man in a red official robe standing not far from him.
In an instant, he was shocked into a cold sweat.
If he heard this kind of rebellious words just now, he would be punished by the Nine Clans!
If you're lucky, you're going to be beheaded!!
So he hurriedly greeted the old man.
"Ruan Shangshu, why did you suddenly come to the palace too? Humble remember, today is not a court? ”
And the sudden move of the guard on the right naturally attracted another guard.
When he saw Ruan Dacheng, he also reacted like a guard on the right, but then he thought that he didn't say anything excessive.
immediately put his mind at ease and followed closely to greet Ruan Dacheng.
"This official has something to do with His Majesty, what? Can't come? ”
Ruan Dacheng replied lightly.
At the same time, he also accurately captured the word "also" said by the guard.
It seems that Ma Shiying has already entered the palace.
"Absolutely! Of course, I can come to the palace, look at the mouth of the lowly position, I really can't speak. ”
The frightened guard immediately pretended to slap his face.
This is, Ruan Dacheng waved his hand.
"Don't act in front of the old man, the official asked you, did Lord Shoufu enter the palace just now?"
"That's right! Just now, Lord Shoufu hurriedly entered the palace in a carriage. ”
The guard on the right secretly observed Ruan Dacheng's expression and found that he didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two.
It also immediately made his somewhat flustered heart relax.
"Well, it just so happens that the official has something to do with Lord Shoufu, so you can continue to stand guard."
After Ruan Dacheng said this, he walked into the palace.
The two guards behind him saw that Ruan Dacheng didn't mention what happened just now, and they were all relieved in an instant.
The two of them glanced at each other, neither daring to continue talking.
silently returned to their respective posts and began a boring and boring day.
……
Here, the carriage stopped in front of the palace in the Imperial Study.
Ma Shiying also jumped down in a hurry.
This "bold" action surprised the coachman who was about to act as a mat.
And Ma Shiying didn't care about the coachman's surprise, and walked directly to the imperial study.
But he didn't go in directly, but asked the eunuch standing on the side.
"Which concubine's harem is Your Majesty in now?"
"Looking back at Lord Fu, Your Majesty is at Zhen Cairen."
The eunuch also looked at Ma Shiying in surprise, and couldn't understand why today's Shoufu was so bold and rampant.
Dare to drive the carriage directly to the imperial study.
Aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will blame him?
"Then quickly call Your Majesty over, and say that there is a big matter!"
Ma Shiying said anxiously, and finally didn't feel at ease, so he added.
"It's a matter of Daming's safety!!"
This is not wrong, after all, he is now the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and in general, he is the actual controller of the imperial court.
Isn't his safety the safety of Daming?
At this time, the eunuch who heard Ma Shi's English was so serious.
didn't dare to slack off, and immediately trotted all the way to the harem.
When the eunuch is gone.
Ma Shiying, who stayed alone in the same place, quickly calmed down after being anxious.
No matter what he said, he was also the one who killed all the way from the imperial examination to the position of the first assistant of the cabinet in the Ming Dynasty.
Just now, when I heard the words of the man in cloth, I was a little shocked for a while.
Now that he had just come, he began to think carefully.
Qian Qianyi's group of people had already figured things out to deal with him, so how could he fight back?
I am afraid that the news of the "Great Compassion Monk" will spread throughout the city in a short time.
It is not difficult to see from this incident that their purpose is to let His Majesty step down and King Lu ascend to the throne.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to fabricate the news that the first emperor was not dead, and also said that the traitor of Ning Guofu was the first emperor.
This kind of conclusion sounds very much in line with the interest logic of Qian Qianyi and others.
But for some reason, he just felt weird.
Although the Donglin Party is not a smart person, they are not stupid people.
Even if some of them are stupid, Qian Qianyi and Shi Kefa, the leaders of the Donglin Party, are not stupid.
They shouldn't dare to break the net with themselves, right?
What's more, once this matter is interrogated by the three divisions, he can completely control the direction of the outcome of the matter.
He can even directly let people reverse the spearhead at the Donglin Party!
When the emperor is close to him and half of the courtiers are attached to him, he really has this ability!
When the time comes, I'm afraid that his net may not be broken, but the group of people in the Donglin Party will definitely die!!
Since he could think of this kind of result, Qian Qianyi and the others could not and could not have imagined it.
This act of looking for death really baffled him.
It can't be that group of people are stupid to read, right?
Just when Ma Shiying was puzzled, Zhu Yousong also rushed over from the harem.
"Ma Shoufu, is it a traitor who fought from Ning Guofu to the city of Nanjing??!
……
"If we enter the city of Nanjing, we will inevitably lose thousands or even tens of thousands of elite soldiers."
"This may be something that our army can afford now."
"But have you ever thought about what we should do when we enter the city of Nanjing?"
Inside the camp tent with bright lights late at night.
Zhu Di quietly explained to Huang Fei and Zhang Jiayu.
"Are we relying on the remaining soldiers to suppress the four towns of Jianghuai?"
"How to recover Guizhou and Ningnanhou, who has more than 300,000 troops?"
As soon as these words came out, Huang Fei and Zhang Jiayu immediately became serious.
The problem Zhu Di said earlier is not too serious.
But Ningnan Hou Zuo Liangyu is a real big problem!
The men and horses under his command may be much higher than what Zhu Di said.
If you rely on their hundreds of thousands of horses to deter Zuo Liangyu, it is obviously unreliable.
It's not even clear that Zuo Liangyu will see that they are so weak, and he will re-establish a vassal king as the emperor.
When the time comes, there will be a fight.
None of them want to see this situation.
Seeing that the expressions of the two of them were a little shaken.
Zhu Di continued to explain.
"And our opponents have never been Jianghuai Four Towns, Zuo Liangyu and others, but the thieves and Jiannu north of the Yangtze River!"
"They are our real enemies right now!"
As soon as they heard Zhu Di talk about the thieves and Jiannu, Huang Fei and Zhang Jiayu didn't dare to be dissatisfied at all.
After all, the strength of the thief and Jiannu, both of them have seen it, and Huang Fei has even fought with Jiannu.
Zuo Liangyu and these two regimes are compatible, so there is no comparison at all.
And now they are even estimated to be difficult to deal with Zuo Liangyu.
Not to mention thieves and slaves.
At that moment, it was Zhang Jiayu who took the lead in standing up.
"It's all up to Your Majesty!"
Huang Fei was also stunned for a while, and then followed.
"The final general is all up to His Majesty!"
Seeing the two of them like this, Zhu Di also nodded with satisfaction.
Although the vision and pattern of the two are not so big, this is already good compared to the princes of Nanjing.
At least they don't fight among themselves.
Vision and pattern can be cultivated slowly, but this problem is not big.
And they don't have to teach it themselves, how can this prove their wisdom and martial arts.
Later, after discussing the general situation with the two, he asked the two to go back and prepare.
After the two of them retreated.
Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he was a little exaggerated just now, although Zuo Liangyu said that it was a little difficult to deal with.
But there has always been Ding Kuichu holding back over there.
Although Ding Kuichu is greedy for money and lustful, his ability still has nothing to say.
With only 200,000 troops, Zuo Liangyu was pinned down by nearly 400,000 or maybe 500,000 troops.
This is enough to prove Ding Kuichu's ability, and it is still okay.
But speaking of Ding Kuichu, Zhu Di is now curious about what happened to him?
It's been so long, and he still doesn't know the situation in Huguang.
I don't know how he and Zuo Liangyu are fighting?
Thinking about it, Zhu Di turned his head and looked quietly to the west.
……
At this time, Ding Kuichu, the governor of Liangguang, who was worried by Zhu Di.
At this moment, he and his son Ding Qirui are running away in embarrassment.
And while running wildly, he looked at the rear, afraid that someone would catch up.
I don't know how long the two of them have been running.
Eventually, they stopped by a lake.
Because they were so thirsty.
They have been running wildly for three days and three nights, and they really can't help it.
It doesn't matter if the pursuers behind will catch up.
Anyway, it's just a sip of water first.
Ding Qirui gulped down the water scooped up from the lake.
While panting, he scolded: "Zuo Liangyu of this dog day is so insidious and cunning."
"We were ambushed in the rear of our army early, and we deliberately set a trap to let us go further ahead."
"It's so annoying that I !!"
Listening to his son scolding the street like a shrew.
Ding Kuichu was not in the mood to discipline Ding Qirui for swearing at the moment.
Just drink water.
There was no one to probe it, and the water was not poisonous.
But now I believe that even if it is poisonous, they will drink it.
After all, once a person is thirsty, it doesn't matter if you are poisonous or not.
Even if they die after drinking, it is estimated that they will ignore it.
After drinking several large scoops of water in a row.
Ding Kuichu, father and son, finally quenched their thirst.
Only then do they have time to look at themselves and their surroundings.
I saw that both of them were gray-faced and ragged.
And their troops are only defeated by the three hundred remnants around them at this moment.
And one by one, they lay on the edge of the lake, motionless.
It is estimated that many of them are directly exhausted.
Looking at this scene, Ding Kuichu sighed deeply.
Think of how high-spirited he was when he came, and personally led the "200,000 army" to crusade against Zuo Liangyu.
At that time, he was majestic and full of red light.
It seemed that the next moment the position of the prince of the country beckoned to him.
But who would have thought that it would only take a dozen days.
His army of 200,000 was gone.
was annihilated by Zuo Liangyu's assault.
That's all that is left around you.
It's really a miserable word~
When Ding Kuichu sighed, Ding Qirui also had some military common sense.
I knew that they couldn't stay here for long, otherwise they would become prisoners when Zuo Liangyu's pursuers chased after them.
So he quickly struggled to his feet.
came to Ding Kuichu's side and said, "Father, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's hurry up and continue to hurry!"
Hearing his son's words, Ding Kuichu looked up weakly.
waved his hand and said, "If you want to go, you can go, because my father really can't run."
"Oops! Father! ”
"If we don't leave at this moment, Zuo Liangyu's pursuers will chase after us!"
"When the time comes, we will be captives in his hands!"
Ding Qirui said anxiously.
His father is usually fine, but when it comes to the critical moment, he drops the chain.
Doesn't he know how dangerous it is right now?
"Be a captive, be a captive."
Ding Kuichu said to himself.
His 200,000 troops have already been defeated by Zuo Liangyu, and even if he flees back to Guangxi at this moment.
and majesty.
It is estimated that it is no longer possible to order the two wide.
And he really doesn't want to run away, so let him be Zuo Liangyu's prisoner.
Anyway, Zuo Liangyu didn't dare to kill him.
At most, he scolded him a few times, and then handed it over to Nanjing.
"Father! You ......"
Just when Ding Qirui was about to continue to persuade.
There was a sound of horses' hooves.
Looking back, the cavalry in bright light armor chased after them.
As soon as he saw these people, Ding Qirui was completely hopeless.
He sat down on the ground.
Like the soldiers around him, he lay on the ground.
"Hahahahahaha, let Naigong see who this is?"
"Isn't this the famous Governor of Liangguang, Ding Kuichu?"
"Why are you so embarrassed today?"
"Hahahahaha......"
The leader scoffed, causing the other soldiers to laugh.
As for their ridicule, Ding Kuichu was not angry.
just said: "After laughing, give the old man a good time."
