Chapter Ninety-Nine: Escape (I)

Sacrifice heaven and earth, worship the ancestors of the Zhu family. The ancestor, I don't know where Zhu Yuanzhang tossed it from, in short, they all put on a good halo, although he Zhu Yuanzhang himself is just a beggar monk. Then, of course, there was a grand enthronement ceremony. Standing on the tower of the palace gate, Zhu Yunwen, who was wearing the emperor's robe, proudly looked down at the thousands of Li people and court officials in front of him, and slowly, in an extremely solemn voice, recited word by word the draft that had been drawn up twenty days in advance.

The people kowtow like garlic, and the mountains shout long live. And the ministers of civil and military affairs also looked at Zhu Yunwen with smiles or nervous faces. Those ministers who used to support Zhu Yunwen's ascension to the throne knew in their hearts that the price they paid would be rewarded. And those ministers who supported Yan Wang Zhu Di to take over the throne or supported several other princes were worried one by one, not knowing what kind of little shoes the newly enthroned emperor would wear for himself. The best result is to step down, it is better than being exterminated by Jinyiwei.

Li Feng, who was kneeling behind Zhu Xi, grinned and complained: "Fuck, this boy emperor is still finished? It's just nonsense, do you want to talk about it for so long? Why don't you think about it, master, my thighs are still blue and purple everywhere? Kitten, you are too heavy." ”

The kitten, who was still half a body taller than the person next to him, lay on the ground and yawned: "That's what you begged me to beat, Fengzi." Alas, how can this emperor talk endlessly? I, I'll sleep. With that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the ground. Li Feng rolled his eyes angrily. What kind of person is a kitten? Sleeping on his stomach like this is exactly his tiger nature, and he naturally doesn't feel uncomfortable at all. Li Feng wanted to do this, but it was uncomfortable, and it was too embarrassing for a human being to be the spirit of all things to sleep on the ground with his ass cocked like this.

Listening to the cries of the nearby people like landslides and tsunamis, Li Feng could only sigh: "Alas, it's better to be a monster...... Murong, how long do you say this emperor is going to talk nonsense?"

Murong Tian shook his head again and again: "No matter how long he wants to talk, we, as courtiers, have to kneel, aren't we?" But I'm strange, why didn't Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru show up? Although the old foundation of their family wealth was almost hollowed out by you, but their own disciples ascended the throne, they always have to come forward to mean such a big event, right? Hehe......" A very strange smile also appeared on Murong Tian's face.

Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru did appear at the enthronement ceremony. They got up early in the morning a few days ago and followed the team to thoroughly handle Zhu Yuanzhang's funeral. Then it's time to choose, and Zhu Yunwen should come to power as the emperor. This is their apprentice, the apprentice is going to be the emperor, can they not appear as a teacher? They are the dignified emperor's teacher, that, that, that is the character who calls for wind and rain, stomps his feet, and the entire Ming Dynasty trembles three times.

But they felt ashamed and did not dare to appear at the ceremony. It's not that the daughters of the two families went to the wrong room, nor is it the fact that there is some gold and silver in their jewelry boxes inexplicably, everyone in the world knows that it must have been framed by others. The only thing that made the two of them feel embarrassed to appear in front of their colleagues was mainly Huang Renshan's matter. The good deeds done by Huang Renshan made Huang Zicheng's name turn into a painting cake for a while.

Even Fang Xiaoru, who supported Huang Renshan as a kind and simple young man, snatched his old woman and mother out of the yard with tears on his face, Fang Xiaoru glanced at Huang Renshan and simply fainted. This scene was hyped up by Gonggong An's people in the court, which made all the ministers look at Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru differently. And the Shangshu of the Criminal Department did not give face, and directly rushed to the Ministry of Officials, and a document dismissed Huang Renshan.

If this is already Huang Zicheng, who is a scholarly heirloom, has completely lost face, Zhu Yunwen's edict afterwards made Huang Zicheng feel that he could not step down. After Zhu Yunwen and the three of them cried and begged for a cup of tea, he immediately ordered that Huang Renshan, who bullied the market and put the kind people under house arrest, not only had to return the 'broken jade knife', but also compensated Yan Wangfu for 100,000 taels of silver.

100,000 taels, the Huang Mansion was scavenged, and I couldn't find so much cash. How could he dare to use the money that appeared in his house inexplicably? Therefore, he could only find Fang Xiaoru to make up a little, and then find some close ministers who were also bitter and haha to borrow some. For the sake of Huang Zicheng's face, those court ministers who were not very wealthy in their own wealth emptied their eunuch bags bitterly, and scraped together hundreds of two thousand taels, and finally collected all the silver and sent it to Li Feng and them.

It's just 100,000 taels of silver, and it almost emptied the food money of those first-class masters in the Ming Dynasty. It was because of this incident that Huang Zicheng felt that his old face was dull, and he had no face to come out to meet people. Fang Xiaoru and he are a melon on a vine, Huang Zicheng is not tenacious, so he naturally has to follow him, hiding in a corner of the palace far away, watching his most proud apprentice shine.

Li Feng, who was lying on the ground, snorted weakly, blinked his little eyes, tilted his head to look at Murong Tian and said, "If you want to say that you came to Yingtian this time, you can barely earn back some capital." As for the jewelry, it doesn't cost anything. The silver ticket of almost 60,000 taels has earned back 100,000 taels of silver, which is not a loss. Even those jewels have already been replenished. There are really a lot of rich people in Ying Tianfu. ”

Murong Tian didn't say a word, he always felt that Li Feng was so evil when he did things. In the ten days before Zhu Yuanzhang's funeral, the group of green forest thieves recruited by Li Feng committed crazy crimes, which made the entire Ying Tianfu cry bitterly, and some officials of the Criminal Department and the Governor Department did not know how many times they were beaten with the limited stick on their buttocks. Back then, Zhu Yuanzhang forcibly relocated all the wealthy merchants in Fengyang to Yingtianfu, but now it is a living and cheap wind, which also makes Zhu Xi and their hearts bloom. Except for Zhu Xuan, who is not very fond of gold, silver and jewelry, and only accepts a few strings of diamonds, Zhu Xuan and Zhu Renna's belts are stuffed with stolen goods. Zhu Ren even praised Li Feng's subordinates for their ability, so that others didn't dare to say anything.

Li Feng's ass moved to make himself more comfortable, and he grinned and laughed in a low voice: "If it weren't for the old eunuch An sending someone to ask us to help catch those snitches, hehe, I would have to empty the entire Ying Tianfu." But it's not bad, isn't Huang Zicheng going to fight with us? Now let's see how they fight? Hehe, hehe, his Huang family, first find a way to repay the tens of thousands of taels of silver to get the debt. ”

The old eunuch beside Li Feng sighed in a low voice: "That father-in-law An, he is a clear-eyed person, hehe, we have added so many things to him, and he has covered it up." That Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru really offended too many people. Ouch, father-in-law, my waist, if this edict to appease the people of the world was drafted by Huang Zicheng, I, I curse him that the Huang family will not die well. ”

For a long, long time, after reading out the edict to appease the people, Zhu Yunwen said some impassioned words according to his own intentions. To let the people of the world be fed, clothed, have money to spend at home, and so on, although they are just empty words, they are still cheered by hundreds of people. All the people who knelt on the ground and listened to Zhu Yunwen speak, it was difficult for these princes and guards of the palace, so there was no need to mention it.

The one from King Ning's Mansion finally cursed in a low voice: "Yunwen Xiao'er, what are you proud of? If it weren't for the edict left by the emperor's grandfather, it wouldn't necessarily be you as the emperor, I'll ......" He has been drinking too much recently, and his waist is already hurting badly, and he really can't hold on at the moment.

Zhu Xi, who was lying in front of him a little, immediately kicked him hard with his foot, and whispered, "Silence, what kind of place is this?"

Zhu Zhen grinded his teeth, looked at Zhu Yunwen standing on the palace tower, and reluctantly lowered his head. It's not just him, but so many sons lying down below all have unhappy expressions on their faces, and they are very unimpressed with Zhu Yunwen's enthronement. Although they had known for a long time that this matter was impossible to avoid, they deliberately did not think about it during Zhu Yuanzhang's funeral. Now that Zhu Yunwen has finally ascended the throne, it makes them feel very uncomfortable.

Zhu Yunwen's father died early, and Zhu Yunwen had no prestige at all among these princes of the Ming Dynasty. How can these princes be convinced? If there is still a person in the world who can deter these princes, it is only Zhu Di who is in Yanjing.

After a long time, Zhu Yunwen finally finished speaking, his hands were raised, and all the people bowed three times and nine times again, and the mountain shouted long live, and then got up in unison. Many people have been kneeling for too long, and as soon as they stand up, they immediately fall down.

Zhu Xi and the others lined up in a neat queue and rushed in to the palace to participate in the celebratory feast. Li Feng hurried a few steps, and said directly in the ears of Zhu Xi and Zhu Xuan: "The two highnesses, when you arrive at the palace, you have to wait for the three rounds of wine, and then you will resign in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the princes." Let's just say that according to the ancestral rules, the prince is not allowed to leave the fiefdom privately, and now that you have been out for so long and have seen the prosperity of Jiangnan, you should go back to Yanjing City. ”

After a pause, Li Feng glanced at the old eunuch An who was standing at the gate of the palace, and said quickly: "When you say these words, remember to be improvised, and don't offend that Zhu Yunwen." Well, the second highness had better say that the military situation in the Northern Wilderness is urgent, and he must rush back to the army to sit in the town. Thinking that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, the military situation of the Quartet does not dare to joke about it. ”

Zhu Xi stopped the strong wind, frowned and asked, "What if Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru make a hindrance?"

Li Feng sneered: "In front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, they are embarrassed to show up now, even if they are cheeky, are they afraid of what they will say? Even if they want to say something, they must take into account today's atmosphere." ”

Zhu Xi nodded slowly, smiled at Li Feng, and walked into the palace. Zhu Xuan slapped Li Feng's shoulder heavily, nodded at him, shook his head slightly and sighed, looked at Murong Tian again, picked up the front hem of his clothes, and strode up.

Murong Tian was in the place where they knelt down just now, and it was easy to pull the kitten up from the ground. There was a hint of saliva on the corner of the kitten's mouth, and he shook his head and asked vaguely, "Ah? It's noon, and I'm so hungry. He touched his belly, and sure enough, there was another thunderclap in his stomach. The kitten himself muttered a little strangely in his heart: "I have become a sincere and benevolent form, why is the amount of food bigger than when I became a tiger?" When I was a tiger, it didn't matter if I didn't eat for seven days, as long as I had a full meal. Now I have become the same as Chengren, and I have to eat three meals a day, and I have to eat as much as I used to be a tiger at each meal, which is scary. ”

Li Feng walked over, took the kitten's hand and walked into the palace, and whispered: "Where are you going to find food?" In the palace, we have prepared delicious food for those of us who are around the prince, and we don't go to eat hard, but we are sorry for the emperor who has just ascended the throne. Hehe, kitten, you have to let go of your belly and eat today, otherwise wouldn't it be cheaper for Zhu Yunwen's kid?"

The kitten's eyes lit up at once, and he laughed a few times. He was not polite, and directly followed Murong Tian and the others into the palace. Li Feng walked in front of the old eunuch An alone, and arched his hand: "Father-in-law, I was taught by my father-in-law, and the boy, as a native of the Ming Dynasty, should serve the imperial court." Hehe, in the past few days, the guards of Yanwang's Mansion have not been idle, but they have caught a group of gangsters, I just don't know if my father-in-law is interested?"

Old Eunuch An raised his head, glanced at Li Feng with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Zhong, the rest of the Yanwang Mansion is fine, but you kid is the most vicious." My father-in-law and I sent people to round up the people of the White Emperor Gate, but there were actually some masters among them, and they actually ran away more than half of them. However, father-in-law, I heard that they met more than a dozen guards masters of the white prince who intervened in the middle of the way, but they were all put down with incense, right?"

Li Feng laughed, and nodded again and again to compliment the old eunuch: "Father-in-law is wise, naturally I can't hide it from you." ”

The old eunuch touched his chin and said with a smile: "Little cub, I want to play with my father-in-law, but you are still a little behind." Well, my father-in-law, my brocade guard, the cost has been a little tight lately. The new emperor ascended the throne, this money can't be spent indiscriminately, and money is needed in many places. How about you get some money for my father-in-law? What about the manpower of the White Emperor Gate, I will send someone to carry it away when the time comes, and then find a time to click on them, and they will be foolproof. ”

Li Feng looked at the old eunuch An with flickering eyes, and sighed: "Father-in-law, we don't have much silver in Yanwang's Mansion." ”

The old eunuch An looked left and right, and came to Li Feng and scolded in a low voice: "You Yanwang Mansion has a lot of money, I don't know my father-in-law." But you're a rich man. Don't say that my father-in-law didn't remind you, but my father-in-law's people told me that when the three largest wealthy merchants in Yingtianfu were looted, your kid was not in the residence of the prince of Hades, what did you go for? Those three rich merchants, the mansion has hired a large number of famous martial arts masters, and those thieves would not have gained anything, but two people suddenly appeared and defeated those reclusive masters, and the total losses of the three rich merchants added up to about five million taels of silver, right?"

Li Feng was startled, and called out to hit the sky: "Father-in-law, we are all real people." You say, 'Would anyone put so much silver in his house for nothing?'

The old eunuch An was silent, stretched out two fingers, and whispered: "I don't care about you so much, give my father-in-law two million silver tickets, and if there is anything in the future, my father-in-law will help you speak." ”

Li Feng secretly screamed in his heart: "This old eunuch, I only gave me a batch of bribes last time, and now he is openly asking for bribes, and sure enough, the bolder the power, the greater the great." Touching his nose, Li Feng laughed: "Since my father-in-law has said so, what else can the kid say......? Alas, this is the silver that I have saved so easily, father-in-law, don't forget, when our prince resigns to His Majesty, you have to help us speak well. ”

The old eunuch laughed: "Well, don't worry." As soon as his big sleeves were rolled, the dozen or so huge silver tickets handed over by Li Feng were suddenly rolled into his sleeves, and he laughed so much that his eyes were almost invisible, and he watched Li Feng enter the palace with a smile.

A Jinyi guard's envoy came over and whispered: "Father-in-law, this is a fierce wind, but the subordinates are sure that they are the masterminds of the series of burglaries and thefts in Ying Tianfu, why don't you arrest them?" He asked very puzzled: "We have counted, in the past 17 days, a total of 347 rich businessmen in Ying Tianfu have been stolen, and in the last three days, the three largest rich businessmen have been robbed. The total value of the silver tickets and treasures lost exceeded 30 million taels, father-in-law, you said this...... What if we could squeeze the money out?"

The old eunuch slapped the face of the soothing envoy fiercely, and scolded with a low laugh: "Little cub, you really don't wake up...... Who is that strong wind? The head of the Yan Wang's Mansion and the leading general of the Yan Wang's subordinates. You try to catch him? It's strange that Zhu Xi doesn't turn his face. If Zhu Xi and the others turn their faces and say that our father-in-law is going to deal with them, hehe, what will King Yan think?"

The old eunuch An handed over a silver ticket, squinted his eyes at the sky, and whispered: "You can take these silver to the boys, it's been quite hard recently." We are opening the door to send the plague god, none of those sons of the world can afford to offend...... When these sons leave Yingtianfu, the world will be truly peaceful. Alas!"
