Chapter 5 Battlefield escaping professional households (I worship, professional households)
Wang Chengen is a good man. Not only is he physically disabled but strong-willed, he has worked hard to reach the position of national leader, and he is also loyal to his superior leader, Emperor Chongzhen. Although he has great power, he still maintains integrity and is basically an upright official - to be honest, he is worse than
I usually make more money, but if I want to take advantage of a few million at home, I can use it now to save lives!
But Wang Chengen is definitely not a qualified eunuch! Not as good as Wei Zhongxian.
Feng Menglong's "Yandu Diary" said that Emperor Chongzhen secretly ordered Cao Huachun to bury Wei Zhongxian's remains in March of the 17th year of Chongzhen. This matter was not in Zhu Cixiang's memory, and he did not think Emperor Chongzhen would miss Wei Zhongxian.
, if he had this intention, he would not hang himself in Meishan. But Zhu Cixiang missed Wei Zhongxian a little... As a great eunuch, he still has to be a little bit treacherous!
As honest as Wang Chengen is, he really shouldn't cut off his balls with a knife!
Seeing Wang Chengen's loyal and honest appearance, Zhu Cixiang was so anxious... Please be treacherous for once!
"Wang Banban! The matter is urgent! Emperor Taizu and Emperor Gao have already had a dream, why are you still hesitating? The rebellion is coming tomorrow. If we don't have a reliable force by then, how can we rely on to escort us through the encirclement? You are my father.
The most trustworthy eunuch is a loyal minister! I am the crown prince and a filial son... Isn’t it our duty as a loyal minister and filial son to prepare to escort the troops to break out?"
While Zhu Cixiang was talking, he walked behind the desk, picked up a pen and paper and began to write the prince's edict. As soon as he started writing, Zhu Cixiang realized that his calligraphy skills had greatly improved! He was very good at Dong style regular script, and he had obviously put in the effort.
. However, his literary talent did not improve much. He could not write four or six parallel sentences, so he went directly to the vernacular. He just added the eight words "The emperor reserves his life, the prince's decree" at the beginning. After writing, he still used
Obtained the crown prince's treasure seal.
"Wang Banban, please accept the order!"
Wang Chengen quickly saluted, took the edict written by Zhu Cixi with both hands, read it over, and thought: The prince is really responsible! How dare you issue such an edict... This is a private deployment of troops! If the emperor has such a decisive decision
And responsibility, why do state affairs come to this?
Thinking of this, Wang Chengen crumpled the decree into a ball, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it.
"Wang Banban, what are you..." Zhu Cixiang's heart almost rose to his throat when he looked at him.
"Master Qiansui, don't worry, this old slave will definitely do what you tell him!" Wang Chengen explained quickly, "But this responsibility will be borne by this old slave! The old slave is in charge of the internal and external military camps and supervises the nine eunuchs. He has his own powers and can be transferred
The soldiers went to the inner school for training. After all, Master Qiantose is the prince. Although it was out of filial piety, it was ultimately inappropriate."
fine……
Zhu Cixi took a long breath.
In fact, he was not worried about being deposed by Emperor Chongzhen because he mobilized troops privately!
Not to mention that Chongzhen's emperor would not be able to serve for a few more days. Even if he could still continue to serve, he would not even think about abolishing himself... As long as he could escape, Chongzhen would never have the chance to establish a crown prince.
Seeing that Wang Chengen was about to turn around and leave, Zhu Cixiang suddenly thought of something and quickly said hello: "Wang Banban, please go slowly."
"Master Qiantose, do you have any other instructions?"
"Is Wu Xiang under your control?" Zhu Cixiang asked.
"It can be said that he also has the title of admiral of the capital camp." Wang Cheng'en said, "The old slave is ordered to command the internal and external military camps. As the admiral of the nine gates, he can indeed take charge of it."
"Transfer him to the inner campus as well!" Zhu Cixiang immediately ordered.
"Transferred Wu Xiang to the inner school? Does Master Qiantose want him to protect you and the emperor?"
Zhu Cixiang said: "Wang Banban, besides Wu Xiang, who else in the capital city do you think can organize more than a thousand people who were temporarily summoned into a group, and then use them to protect the emperor, the queen mother and me as they go to Tianjin Guards?
Wu Xiang entered the capital in February, and he came with a large family. The road was chaotic, and there were dozens of servants to protect him. The servants of the Wu family have all fought hard battles against the Donglu in Liaodong!"
"So that's it!" Wang Chengen suddenly realized that the men and horses he could gather were all a mob. If they broke through the army before the siege, they might be able to protect the emperor and escape. But once the army besieged the city, these people would probably disperse in one fell swoop.
Therefore, Wu Xiang's servants must be restrained and suppressed.
After all, Wu Xiang has seen large-scale battles! He has some military command skills. If he leads the troops, it is better than Wang Chengen leading the troops himself, right?
In addition, when Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui and their sons fought against the Qing soldiers in Liaodong, they ran away a lot! They were able to escape with their lives in the hands of the vicious Qing soldiers, and they were able to retain some strength, which shows that they are very experienced in escaping. He is a man.
A veteran battlefield escape professional!
Zhu Cixiang added: "And after we leave the city, we have to find ways to win over Wu Sangui! If we can recruit his 40,000 elite soldiers to Tianjin and follow them southward, the southern half of the Yangtze River will be stable."
He only said half of what he said, and the other half was that if Wu Sangui refused to follow and instead defected to the Manchus, holding Wu Sangui's father captive would be somewhat of a restraint.
Wang Chengen understood what Zhu Cihong meant, and he admired this thousand-year-old man even more.
Although Mr. Qiansui is young, he is thoughtful, courageous, and a filial son... I am afraid that the burden of reviving the Ming Dynasty will fall on his shoulders!
"Master Qiansui, I understand. I'm going to gather some help right now. Tomorrow morning, I'll personally go to Wu Xiang's house and drag him to the inner school yard."
Zhu Cixiang nodded, "Okay, I will go to the inner campus to wait for him tomorrow."
Wang Cheng'en felt something was wrong again, and just when he was about to say something, Zhu Cihong spoke first: "Wang Banban, these are extraordinary times, we can no longer follow the old rules."
"Old slave, I understand."
Wang Chengen then bowed and turned around.
Watching Wang Chengen leave, Zhu Cixiang didn't feel sleepy at all. Instead, he was pacing in the hall while thinking about his future.
The current situation is too critical. Today is March 15th of the 17th year of Chongzhen... If I remember correctly, Li Zicheng's army arrived in Changping on March 16th, and they will approach the city on March 17th!
So he didn't even have time to shed tears over his tragic experience (soul piercing), so he had to devote himself wholeheartedly to crisis response.
But having said that, Zhu Cixiang's body is not bad. He has grown very tall at the age of sixteen, and his skin is fair. Judging from the bronze mirror, his facial features are also very handsome, his eyebrows are thick, and he is quite powerful.
In addition, Zhu Cixi also felt that he was very energetic! He didn't feel tired at all even if he didn't sleep at night. He hadn't felt like this in many years!
Moreover, Zhu Cixiang's brain seems to be very developed, his memory is very good, and his thinking is very quick.
Then make good use of this good brain to think about it again and see if there are any urgent matters that need to be dealt with immediately.
After walking for a while, Zhu Cixiang suddenly stopped and shouted: "Huang Dabao, Qiu Zhizhong, who is here?"
"Master Qiansui, this servant is Huang Dabao." The chubby eunuch Huang Dabao came in with a yawn.
"Go and get the decree."
"Here."
Huang Dabao responded, turned around and left. Zhu Cixiang added: "Take a thousand copies first!"
"A thousand copies?" Huang Dabao was startled.
"Are there so many?" Zhu Cihong asked, "If not, a memorial copy, a title copy, or a sticker will do. I'll collect a thousand copies first."
"Master Chitose, what do you need so many notebooks for?" Huang Dabao was a little surprised.
"Ill-paid note." Zhu Cihong replied smoothly.
"Baitiao?" Huang Dabao was confused and looked at Zhu Cihong stupidly.
Zhu Cixiang didn't bother to explain to him, "Don't worry about this, and then bring Imperial Physician Zeng and Secretary Bi Jiucheng to me."
"Master Qiansui, are you feeling unwell?" Huang Dabao asked quickly when he heard that the prince wanted to see the imperial doctor.
"Well," Zhu Cihong said, "I feel a little unwell, so I won't have classes tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Huang Dabao looked at Zhu Cixiang who was full of energy. How could he feel any discomfort? He was obviously skipping class!
The fat eunuch thought to himself: What happened to Mr. Qiantose? Did he wake up after a long nap? He even pretended to be sick and skipped classes? Moreover, he had been chatting with Duke Wang for half the night, and when the governor left, he was completely
