Chapter 284 Reunion

Yue Qijie and Yang Wencong were different. Although both of them were Ma Shiying's relatives, they also used Ma Shiying to ascend to heaven. Yue Qijie was the governor of Henan and Yang Wencong was the governor of Su Song. However, Yang Wencong had been in Nanzhili for many years and was familiar with the Donglin Party. But Yue Qijie was no longer able. He was an official in Sichuan and his family was in Henan, and had no connection with the Donglin Party, so when he first entered prison, he really scared the old man in his sixties.

However, after being imprisoned, Yue Qijie was like being forgotten, no one paid attention to him. After living in prison for more than half a year, Yue Qijie learned from the prison head that the Qing army had occupied Nanzhili, and Suzhou, not far from Hangzhou, had been occupied. The big men in the court were discussing whether to fight or flee. Someone there could care about him, a small governor?

In this way, Yue Qijie was imprisoned for two years. Just when Yue Qijie was bored, a little eunuch in casual clothes came to the prison and pointed out that the person with the surname was going to pick Yue Qijie away.

There is no Heavenly Prison in Hangzhou, so Yue Qijie was detained in the prison of the Zhejiang Provincial Censorate. Now Ma Cheng's army is less than one day away from Hangzhou City. All the officials in the city are in panic. Someone there is in charge of a prisoner who is imprisoned in the prison. In this way, Yue Qijie was easily taken out of the prison.

After leaving the prison, Yue Qijie really felt that he had seen the light of day again. He asked the little eunuch who rescued him, but the little eunuch just didn't speak and just urged Yue Qijie to get into the sedan chair.

There was no way to Yue Qijie had to follow this little eunuch and turn east and west in Hangzhou City, and come to a private yard next to Yongkin Gate on the edge of West Lake.

Yue Qijie got out of the sedan chair and looked around. The environment here was elegant and it was a villa for wealthy families. It was located in West Lake and the housing prices were not cheap. However, it was impossible for ordinary people to get Yue Qijie out of the prison.

The little eunuch said, "Please wash your hair, and the master will come to see the more you will be!"

When Yue Qijie heard the little eunuch say this, he basically knew who was saving himself and who the eunuch's master was? He could only be the Lu King in the city.

Thinking of this, Yue Qijie was honest and polite. Under the servitude of two beautiful maids, he took a shower for a long time, which was considered to have removed the old mud accumulated over two years.

After all, Yue Qijie, led by the little eunuch, came to a unique courtyard deep in the courtyard. Yue Qijie went into the house and saw that as he thought, the one who saved him was Lu Wang Zhu Changqing.

Yue Qijie didn't know that Zhu Changqing had already proclaimed himself emperor, but only knew that he was the governor of the country, so Yue Qijie stepped forward and said, "I am Yue Qijie, pay homage to the governor of the country!"

Yue Qijie was very respectful. After all, Zhu Changqing saved him, but he didn't expect that Zhu Changqing was even more respectful than him. He quickly stood up and said modestly: "You must not call him a stern! Xiao Wang has decided to ask himself to remove the imperial title!"

Zhu Changqing's short sentence revealed too much information. Why is it so respectful to Yue Qijie? Why should the emperor be removed? Did Zhu Changqing become emperor? But why did he still need to be removed after he became emperor? Yue Qijie didn't understand the situation and was stunned for a moment.

Zhu Changqing looked at Yue Qijie and knew that this old guy had just come out of prison and didn't know the specific situation, so he explained the situation of the two-year birth in detail.

After listening to Zhu Changqing's speech, Yue Qijie realized that he had so many major events in Nanzhili in the past two years he was imprisoned. That bastard

The boy Ma Cheng was able to support the new emperor and defeat the arrogant Qing Dynasty.

Ma Cheng was basically Yue Qijie who grew up. When he was a child, Ma Cheng was no different from ordinary second-generation officials. He fought and did not study every day, but who would have thought that such a second-generation ancestor could do such a big thing? Thinking of this Yue Qijie thought of Di Qing of the Song Dynasty. When he was a child, he was idle and harmed the countryside. After he grew up, he grew up to be a famous general who was the only one. It seems that the growth of famous generals was the same.

Zhu Changqing said the past, and then said embarrassedly: "This little king didn't know that His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne in Nandu at that time, so under the instigation of Huang Daozhou and others, he established a self-supervising state without knowing his death. Now the imperial army is outside the city. Xiao Wang is willing to remove the emperor's title and be a idle prince again. However, Huang Daozhou, Zhu Dadian, Zhang Lun and others in Hangzhou City cannot recognize the situation and rely on the city wall to fight against the imperial army. Xiao Wang cannot contact the Ma Tushima outside the city, so he can only ask Lord Yue to convey it on his behalf. Xiao Wang is willing to open the city and surrender unconditionally!"

For a cunning and cunning person like Yue Qijie, the most important thing at the moment is to quickly get out of the dangerous place in Hangzhou, so no matter what Zhu Changqing said, Yue Qijie had to pat his chest and agree. As for whether he could do it when he left the city, it depends on Yue Qijie's mood.

"Please rest assured about this. Ma Cheng is a child who has been a child since childhood. I will say the same thing in front of Ma Cheng. I can now reply to the prince. As long as the city is opened and surrenders, I will ensure the prince's glory and wealth!"

Zhu Changqing, an honest child, had never seen the intrigues in the officialdom. He heard that Yue Qijie promised to be here and quickly prepared wine and dishes for Yue Qijie happily.

After some teasing and drinking, Yue Qijie knew that Hangzhou City was not a place to stay for a long time, so it would be better to get out as soon as possible.

"Prince, it's better to be a matter of this kind than to be late. Now it's getting late. I can take advantage of the night to leave the city. Please tell me, when will the city gate be opened? "

Zhu Changqing was overjoyed when he heard Yue Qijie say this and quickly said, "The guardian of Genshan Gate is my confidant. Please ask Master Ma to enter the city from Genshan Gate. The time will be set in three days. How about it?"

"Okay, please don't worry, I will bring the news!"

Yue Qijie was already full and drunk at this time. After getting up and saying goodbye, he came to the Gen Mountain Gate of the North Gate under the leadership of a small eunuch. The Gen Mountain Gate was Zhu Changqing's confidant. He had already received the news that after opening the city gate, Yue Qijie was released.

Yue Qijie, who had escaped, turned around and looked at the black Gen Mountain Gate behind him, and ran along the official road without looking back.

Yue Qijie ran five miles apart. He felt relieved when he saw no one following him. He hired a ox cart on the side of the road and rushed to Tangqi Town forty miles away. The information Zhu Changqing gave him was that Ma Cheng had occupied Tangqi Town.

Ma Cheng occupied Tangqi on August 12th, which was only forty miles away from Hangzhou City. Ma Cheng regarded this place as a command center and prepared to start siege after a day of repair.

After dark tonight, Ma Cheng was patrolling the camp according to the rules of the army and prepared to sleep. At this time, the personal soldiers came in to inform him that the aunt, Yue Qijie was coming.

Ma Cheng was stunned when he heard that his uncle came. Yue Qijie had lost news for more than two years. Ma Cheng and Ma Shiying thought he was dead in the chaos, but they didn't expect how it appeared from Hangzhou.

Ma Cheng and Yue Qijie had a good relationship. When they heard that their uncle came, they naturally did not dare to neglect them. They quickly left the camp to greet them.

Yue Qijie stood at the door and saw Ma Cheng coming out to greet him. If Ma Cheng was still a little immature two years ago, Ma Cheng is now as sharp as a steel knife. It seems that the battlefield is really a training person.

Taking advantage of the pissy wind lamp at the entrance of the camp, Ma Cheng saw an old guy standing in front of him. It was his cheap uncle Yue Qijie. Ma Cheng hurried forward and saluted: "It turns out that he is really a uncle. Everyone in the family thinks that his uncle has no Lunjun. I wonder why he came to Hangzhou?"

Yue Qijie sat on the ox cart for several hours, and his old bones were about to fall apart. He took Ma Cheng's hand and walked into the camp, saying as he walked: "I'm very tired, let's talk about it when I go in!"

After entering the tent, Ma Cheng ordered people to serve tea. Yue Qijie didn't care about drinking tea and quickly asked about the situation at home. His wife and children were all in Nanjing. Although he heard that Ma Cheng had saved Nanjing, it was reliable to hear the person involved.

Yue Qijie heard Ma Cheng say that everything was fine in the family, and his eldest son Yuebin was also elected as the head of the Ministry of Works. Yue Qijie breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the family was fine.

Ma Cheng finished retelling the story about Nanjing and then asked: "Uncle, where have you been in the past two years? My father searched everywhere around Nandu but couldn't find it, and my aunt even cried for it!"

Hearing his old wife missed him, Yue Qijie sighed: "Hey, Huang Degong died in the battlefield back then, so I had no choice but to put on makeup and change my clothes and escape back to Nandu. However, at that time, Nandu was already besieged by the Beilu. I couldn't enter the city and could only escape to Hangzhou!"

When talking about Hangzhou Yue Qijie, he was so angry that he scolded: "These killers in Hangzhou City saw that Nandu was surrounded by the enemy and actually imprisoned me in prison. If these guys hadn't taken care of me for power and profit, I might have been no longer alive!"

Yue Qijie has not been satisfied in prison in the past two years. Now when he mentions the sadness, Yue Qijie cries and laughs, and his spirit is a little abnormal. Ma Cheng doesn’t care whether you are dead or alive. He only cares about how you are from the city. Ma Cheng received a secret report from the Military Information Department in the city that the defeated general Fang Guoan had reconciled 50,000 or 60,000 troops and was preparing to fight him again in Hangzhou City.

"My uncle, now the city of Hangzhou is strictly guarded. How did My uncle leave the city?"

After hearing what Ma Cheng said, Yue Qijie remembered Zhu Changqing's incident. He wiped his tears and said, "How could the old lady escape from Hangzhou City? It was Lu Wang who sent someone to release me to give me a message to his nephew. He just wanted to be a leisure prince, and for this reason he was willing to open the Genshan Gate in three days and open the city to surrender!"

When Ma Cheng heard that King Lu was about to surrender, he was very disbelief. Ma Cheng heard the saying that praises the Ming Dynasty in later generations, "What kind of emperors guard the country and the kings die in the country?" Didn't the emperors of the Ming Dynasty surrender? Why did King Lu insist on surrendering? It's very suspicious.

Ma Cheng considered and asked repeatedly: "Uncle, do you think this Lu King really surrendered?"

Ma Cheng originally thought Yue Qijie could have a good suggestion, but Yue Qijie said, "I don't know this. You are the God of War. How to fight is your business. I am just a melody. Now I am tired. You can arrange for someone to prepare a residence for me!"
