please make me king
Chapter 1708 Assassination
On the Misty Peak of the West Mountain, Huang Fei came to meet the wind, and saw the lake and the boats.
A ballad came from far away: "Sing one, Taihu Lake is good, the spring breeze is blowing without frost, the lake is miaomiao without waves; two singing, Taihu Lake is good, whitebait and white shrimp taste delicious, let go of your stomach and eat your fill. "
However, as he listened, he burst into tears.
The boat was not a fishing boat, but a warship that traversed the sea;
That song is not a Wu song, but changed to the tune of a Liaodong ballad.
The fisherman was not a fisherman, but an elite Dengzhou Navy.
Looking at the huge warship that was inconvenient to maneuver, he couldn't help but said to himself: "This is really a dragon swims in shallow water, and a tiger falls in the flat sun. Pity me, with all my skills, I will end up on an island of old age and death, how sad it is!"
Just when he was mourning the spring and autumn and lamenting endlessly, he suddenly saw a small boat coming from the east, and then a sentry boat stopped it.
The two sides negotiated for a while, and then the sentinel boat led the boat straight to Xishan Island.
Huang Fei was taken aback when he saw this, and then he couldn't help but said with great joy: "Could it be that the court remembered Mr. Huang, hurry up and wait for me to take a bath and change clothes, I want to welcome the envoy!"
"Huh!" Chen Zilong was sitting on the boat, and from time to time, he bumped into big boats passing by.
I also heard someone yelling from above, "Okay, okay, I just caught three [-]-jin white fish and raised them. A big customer wants it tomorrow morning!"
He couldn't help letting out a long breath. Such a huge fishing boat seemed out of place in the water of Taihu Lake, but it was refitted from a warship.
How can it not be embarrassing for a weapon in naval warfare to end up fishing in Taihu Lake?
"It's here, sir!" Just as Chen Zilong was full of emotion, a voice sounded at the right time.
"Captain Huang!" Not long after, under the recommendation of his soldiers, Chen Zilong finally met Huang Fei, the general of the Daming's aid to suppress the Northeast Navy, the admiral of the Guanliao Tongjin Huaihaijiang Township Navy who acted cheaply.
"The student's surname is Chen, and his name is Zilong. His surname is Renzhong, and he is from Songjiang. He is entrusted by Shen Youlong and Shen Junmen, and he is here to meet the governor!"
"Shen Youlong? I've heard of him, but I haven't seen him. I don't know why he sent you here?" Huang Fei frowned when he heard the words, and couldn't hide his disappointment.
"According to reliable sources, that 'Shun thief' is arrogant and arrogant, and he is now in Taicang, Suzhou, with only a thousand elites in his hands." Chen Zilong couldn't help laughing, "I have agreed with Shen Junmen that King Nanjie Lu and General Xilian will raise troops to encircle him." Attack them and take their lives."
"Such achievements can be accomplished, and the world can be safe!"
"What, the 'Shun thief' has come to Suzhou?" Huang Fei was shocked when he heard that.
He heard that Yang Sichang, Zhu Dadian, Qian Qianyi and others supported the "Lu King" Zhu Changhao to ascend the throne, and he was still waiting for the edict to invite him to come out of the mountain and keep the Yangtze River. Yangtze.
"There are only a thousand people, why is that?" Huang Fei was considered a veteran general, so naturally he would not listen to Chen Zilong's one-sided words.
"But it's like this. I heard that the 'shun thief' suddenly broke into Suzhou after he participated in the Spring and Autumn Conference of Fushe. The prefect of Suzhou didn't know soldiers, so he was frightened and left the city." Seeing Huang Fei's intentions, Chen Zilong continued hastily. road.
"The 'shun thief' then got Suzhou. Unexpectedly, he heard that the Gu family had a beautiful daughter, so he went to ask for her."
"He was born in a reckless family, and the women he saw were nothing more than village girls and stupid women. How could he see such beauty? He couldn't help but love her, so much so that he was in danger!"
"Oh?" Huang Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help but nodded, "I heard that 'Shun Thief' is good in everything, except that he is licentious, and he is not a real man. Seeing it today, it really is!"
"General, the fish is over!" Just as the two were talking, a soldier suddenly reported.
"Oh, excuse me!" Huang Fei gave Chen Zilong an apologetic look before asking, "Did you catch the big fish?"
"I caught it. There was one weighing about [-] jin, and two weighing [-] jin. However, one of the [-] jin fish was not in good condition, and a few pieces of fish scales fell off." The soldier hurriedly reported.
"Oh, let's raise it first, and see if the distinguished guest wants it tomorrow morning!" Huang Fei nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, then turned his head and smiled at Chen Zilong, "I'm just kidding, the family is big and the business is small. Made a little business."
"The current situation is very dangerous. It should be taken for granted!" Chen Zilong smiled and asked casually, "Thirty catties of Taihu Lake whitefish are rare, so I'm afraid they can be sold for ten taels of silver?"
"Ten taels? A total of 50 taels!" Huang Fei spread his fingers and showed off, "In addition, there are five or six hundred catties of miscellaneous fish, whitebait, and white shrimp, but this sum is worth three to four hundred taels of silver." so much."
"Oh? Where did this good deal come from, and the general got it?" Chen Zilong couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.
Three 400 taels of silver doesn't sound like much, but it can't stand the value of silver in the late Ming Dynasty.
For example, famous prostitutes like Chen Yuanyuan and Liu Rushi are worth only one or two thousand taels of silver.
Another example is Zhang Shenyan, who was dismissed by the court at the beginning because the 2000 taels of silver could not explain where he went.
There are not many people in this Suzhou area who can buy Taihu fish for three or four hundred taels of silver at one time.
"Who knows, I heard it's a family from Taicang!" Huang Fei smiled and said casually.
"Taicang? Could it be the Gu family!" Chen Zilong was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said happily.
"The Gu family?" Huang Fei was also taken aback for a moment, but then he didn't dare to answer the question, "Can there be such a coincidence?"
It was just late the next day, and Mrs. Gu set up another big table for Zhang Shun.
Zhang Shun took Gu Qiji and sat down, only to see that there was an empty space in the middle of the table, and he couldn't help but look at the patriarch of the Gu clan strangely.
The patriarch saw Gu Qiji with peach blossoms on her face, leaning against Zhang Shun, how could it not only be that they have accomplished good things?
He couldn't help but said happily: "Today, I just caught a Taihu Lake whitefish weighing 32 catties and six taels. It is extremely rare. I specially asked my servant to make it for His Highness to enjoy!"
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and ordered: "Serve!"
"Yes!" I heard a servant answer, and after a while, he brought up a large plate.
Seeing each other, I quickly tried it with a silver needle and found that there was no problem, so I picked up the chopsticks and prepared to take a bite of the dish.
"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Zhang Shun suddenly stopped everyone.
"What's the matter, Your Highness?" The patriarch of the Gu clan looked stunned, and the others couldn't help but look at each other.
"Where are you from?" Zhang Shun didn't answer, but asked the servant.
It turns out that in this era, the sounds of the north and the south are very different.
Except for the official Zhongzhou rhyme as the authentic one, ordinary people everywhere have a strong accent.
For example, the Suzhou area is represented by Wu Nong's soft language, which sounds like a low-pitched singing.
In the past two days, Zhang Shun had listened to Gu Qiji pleading for forgiveness, but he felt a little bit of it.
Don't look at the person who just learned quite similarly, and only said one word "yes", but Zhang Shun could hear the difference.
This Gu family is a big family in Taicang, although most of the servants in the family have dispersed, but all the remaining ones are family-born children, how could there be a servant from outside?
Only then did Zhang Shun become suspicious.
"I am the one who killed you!" Seeing that Zhang Shun was suspicious, the man simply kept on doing nothing, only to see him suddenly shouted, then put his hand into the fish's mouth, endured the scalding soup, and suddenly pulled out a piece of fish. Bring the sword.
Before everyone could react, the man just threw the tray and fish in his hand at Zhang Shun, and then stabbed him with a sword.
"Your Highness, be careful!" Seeing this, Gu Qiji couldn't help turning pale, and quickly hugged Zhang Shun, about to block him.
It's too late, it's too soon.
Just at the critical moment, suddenly there was a shout, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which only made everyone's ears buzz, and then a crisp sound followed by a dull sound.
It turned out that it was Wukong who took the shot, opened the thrown white fish with a stick, smashed the porcelain plate to pieces, and then beat the assassin's head with another stick.
All of a sudden, red, white, rolling, hot, soft, and hard things fell down, dousing everyone present like rain.
"Kill!" At this moment, several servants pulled out and were about to charge forward, but they were stopped by Zhang Shun's guards.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, are you alright!" The Patriarch of the Gu Clan was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he hurriedly struggled to crawl over to greet him.
"It's okay, they're just clowns!" Zhang Shun calmly pushed Gu Qiji away, and replied calmly.
"Dog thief, it's destiny that I can't kill you today!" At this moment, those "servants" were already surrounded by the rebel guards, and they could only hear them yelling.
"However, you escaped the first day of the junior high school, but you can't escape the fifteenth day. Wash your neck early and wait to die!"
After they finished speaking, they wiped the knives on their necks, and the blood spurted out like a fountain.
At the same time, the sound of war drums and fighting could be heard from afar outside Gu's mansion.
A ballad came from far away: "Sing one, Taihu Lake is good, the spring breeze is blowing without frost, the lake is miaomiao without waves; two singing, Taihu Lake is good, whitebait and white shrimp taste delicious, let go of your stomach and eat your fill. "
