Chapter 49
Zhu Aao heard the noise outside and knew that the red lady was coming, so she suddenly became nervous again.
Hao Guangming analyzed Li Yan and Red Lady for her and thought that Red Lady should be more difficult to persuade than Li Yan and might even be hostile to her.
Of course it's not because she is younger and more beautiful than the red lady.
Rather, the Red Lady was born as an entertainer. It can be said that she came from the bottom of society. Such a person would most likely hate the government and the Ming Dynasty royal family.
This can also be seen from the original Red Lady uprising.
In addition, as a charlatan and a woman, the Red Lady must have never received the education of loyalty to the emperor and the country.
In fact, Hao Guangming does not think that being loyal to the emperor and serving the country is such an advanced idea, but in the environment of the late Ming Dynasty, people with this kind of idea would undoubtedly be more easily persuaded by Zhu Yuyao, the princess of the Ming Dynasty.
Seeing that Li Yan was still in a daze, Zhu Aaao was about to remind him that the Red Lady was coming, when she saw a pretty woman in a bright red cloak walking in with a sudden stride.
The person who came was none other than the Red Lady.
Hao Guangming also saw the appearance of the red lady through the camera.
If Li Yan gives people the impression of being handsome and elegant, then the red lady gives people the impression of being heroic, and both of them are good-looking, standing together like a couple of gods.
"I heard that my husband has a relative here, could it be this girl?" Lady Hong glanced at Li Yan, then looked at Zhu Aona and asked with a smile.
The red lady is also the person Zhu Aao wants to win over.
And judging from the words of people around Li Yan, it seems that the red lady is the leader of the couple.
So, when Li Yan was hesitating whether to reveal the truth to the red lady, Zhu Yurao smiled and said: "My name is Zhu Yurao. As for whether I am a relative of Young Master Li, it depends on whether Young Master Li wants to admit it."
The names of women from the Ming Dynasty royal family are rarely seen on paper, and they have never been spread out of the palace.
Not to mention the red lady, even Li Yan may not have known Princess Kunxing's name before, and he didn't even know there was Princess Kunxing before the assassination.
Therefore, after listening to Zhu Yuluo's introduction, the Red Lady did not connect with the Princess of Ming Dynasty who had disappeared in Chuangying.
She smiled and said: "How do you say this? Could it be that my sister's family had a quarrel with the Li family? Let me tell you, the world is in chaos, and many families are separated from their wives. It's not easy to meet relatives. The trivial things in the past should be laughed off.
That’s good.”
On the other side, Hao Guangming couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
This red lady is really straightforward and free-spirited. Although her words are simple and plain, it clearly embodies Mr. Lu's principle of "brothers will survive all the calamities, and when they meet, they will forget all their grudges".
At this time, Li Yan made a decision and said: "Madam, she is the Ming princess who disappeared in the camp before."
"What?" The red lady's almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, and her pretty face was full of surprise.
Then he looked at Zhu Ainao with curiosity on his face.
"Is this the princess? This is the first time I've seen her. She is indeed the emperor's daughter, and she looks prettier than me. Why did your husband invite her to your home? He doesn't fall in love with her, does he?"
Sure enough, there is no woman who is not jealous.
Especially when facing another beautiful woman.
However, Li Yan knew that the red lady was not jealous, so her words were mostly teasing and questioning.
It's just that he had not made up his mind on how to deal with the matter of meeting Zhu Yura, and was confused by Zhu Yura's prediction of the general trend of the world. Now he was even more undecided.
Hearing this, he said: "I'm joking, I didn't invite Her Royal Highness to my home, but I took the initiative to visit you. Speaking of which, I don't know why Her Royal Highness wants to see Li?"
At the end of the conversation, Li Yan's thinking became clearer.
He really hadn't thought about the future, but since Zhu Yuya took the initiative to find him, he must have a purpose.
He might as well understand Zhu Yuluo's intention before making any plans.
Zhu Ainao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that although the red lady joked like she was jealous, she was not obviously hostile to her.
After listening to Li Yan's question, she knew it was time to explain her purpose.
She immediately clasped her fists and said, "I would like to ask you two to lead your troops to break away from the Chu army and follow me south to conspire against the Qing Dynasty and reorganize the Ming Dynasty."
Li Yan had thought about Zhu Ailao's purpose.
For example, ask him for protection and ensure safety.
Another example is asking him to find out the whereabouts of the three princes and trying to rescue the prince who has been captured by the intruders.
He even thought that Zhu Yurao would use his cover to seek an opportunity to assassinate Li Zicheng again to avenge Chongzhen.
But I never expected that Zhu Aona would actually say such words.
Conspiracy to resist the Qing Dynasty?
Rebuilding the Ming Dynasty?
How could these words come from the mouth of a woman?
Even if she is the princess of Ming Dynasty.
But when he saw the red lady next to him, he couldn't help but suddenly realized - the world is so chaotic, even women may not have the heart of a man.
The red lady next to her burst into laughter.
"Is the princess joking?" The red lady sat down and looked at Zhu Aao's straight waist, "Or maybe the princess doesn't know who I am?"
Zhu Yucao said: "Since I am here to persuade you, I naturally know who you are.
Red Lady, you are a skilled rope artist. A few years ago, Henan suffered from natural disasters and famine.
Because you were dissatisfied with the local government's excessive taxation and the exploitation and oppression of the poor people by the gentry and landlords, and because you heard that the invaders invaded Henan and swept across all places, you led the people to rebel against the Ming Dynasty.
Later, you met Li Gongzi, whose real name was Li Xin, and at his suggestion, you led your troops to join Li Zicheng and became the largest Henan rebel army not directly related to Li Zicheng."
The red lady was slightly surprised when she heard Zhu Yuluo briefly describe her experience, and then the smile on her pretty face became even brighter.
She took out the whip from her waist, rolled it up and slapped her palms, and said, "You already said that I led the crowd to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, and you called us rebels. Now you are here to recruit me to join the government. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"It's not ridiculous." Zhu Yuluo shook his head calmly, "If I didn't know some things in the future, I would definitely regard you as enemies.
But when I know the future, know your ending in the future, and know the general changes in the world, I am sure that you are the people I want to unite with."
Having said everything that should be said before, now realizing that the red lady is not easy to persuade, Zhu Aona simply enlarged her tactics.
Of course, Hao Guangming had considered these words for her in advance.
At this time, both Li Yan and the red lady showed doubts.
Then the red lady smiled again and said: "How do you know the future? Although I am young, I have been running around in the world for several years. Don't pretend to be a fool with me."
Li Yan said: "The princess's previous analysis that the slaves might steal China was somewhat reasonable.
But now it is too ridiculous to say that he came to us because he knew the future.
Don’t you know that if you don’t speak a word, your strange power will confuse your spirit?”
Li Yan originally thought that Zhu Aolao would defend himself, but unexpectedly, Zhu Aelao asked a seemingly irrelevant question.
"Shouldn't the xenon lamp I left behind that day be on?"
She asked this not because she knew that Li Zicheng was pretending to be a coward and kept turning on the xenon lamp, but because the xenon lamp was on before she fell into coma. If no one could turn it off, the xenon lamp that could only last for a few hours would have been turned off.
Clicked.
Even if someone is lucky enough to turn off the xenon lamp, most of them will turn it on and off repeatedly for so many days, wasting electricity, and there is a high probability that the xenon lamp will run out of electricity.
Li Yan was not surprised that Zhu Aola knew that the magic lamp no longer lit up - after all, it was the rare treasure that Zhu Aola left behind, so it was not unusual for her to know.
But he still felt nervous.
Because with his knowledge, there is really no way to explain how the magic lamp lights up.
It is really possible for Zhu Aolao to have such a rare treasure and say that he can know the future.
The red lady didn't think that much. She was surprised when she heard this and said: "How do you know?"
Zhu Yasuo smiled slightly and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you two. Maybe it's God's mercy that can't bear to let my land in China be occupied by Tartars again, so it gave me the magical power to travel hundreds of years later.
The xenon lamp and the sound system that used to curse Li Zicheng in the Zhengyang Tower were all brought by me from hundreds of years later.
Since I can bring things here from hundreds of years in the future, I have naturally read historical records from hundreds of years in the future.
