Chapter 111 Third Prince Zhu, You Owe the World for an Uprising! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

"You, what did you say?"

Wang Shiyuan was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't understand, and stared at the white-faced scholar Chen Yonghua in front of him.

Chen Yonghua's fair face also showed a bit of coldness, and he said lightly: "His Royal Highness, you are the son of Emperor Yizong of the Ming Dynasty, and the younger brother of Prince Xianmin. After Emperor Yizong and Prince Xianmin died in the country, you will You should stand up and lead the anti-Qing fighters from all over the world to defend your home and country. But where are you?"

"I, I was still young at that time," Wang Shiyuan defended himself.

Chen Yonghua said again: "Where were you when Guo Xingye, the ancestor of Yanping Fan, made the Northern Expedition to Nanjing in the 13th year of the Yongli calendar? Why didn't you go to the same place? You were not young at that time, right?"

"I, didn't I have Emperor Yongli at that time?" Wang Shiyuan continued to quibble, "What do I do if I come out?"

"What about after Emperor Zhaozong Yongli died for his country?" Chen Yonghua asked again, "After Emperor Zhaozong Yongli died for his country, you are the hope of the anti-Qing people all over the world. Since the 16th year of Yongli, have there been few heroes who have risen in the name of His Highness? ? There are one or two times a year when there is a bit of climate, right? There are even more "Third Princes" who broke down before they broke up! But you, the Lord, why have you been living a peaceful and beautiful life here in Yuyao? What about the days? And now you have joined the imperial court and become an eagle dog at the sticky pole, are you worthy of your ancestors and the heroes of the world like this?"

"I, I..." Wang Shiyuan looked wronged, when did he join the imperial court as a dog?How dare he!He is clearly full of Confucian principles (he was very good at his homework when he was a prince in the Ming Dynasty, and after he escaped, he was handed over to a former civil servant surnamed Wang by Chang Mingyu's father to take care of him, so he has a solid foundation in Confucianism), but Even a scholar dare not take the test. Now he is forced to become an eagle dog. For some reason, he is made into a big eagle dog at the sticky pole of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!
Thinking of this, he had no choice but to turn his attention to Chang Xiangu, this scholar named "Fufu" is unreasonable, Xiangu is still a good fairy, and has always taken care of him these years.

But Chang Mingyue also "changed her mind" and just shook her head: "Third brother, you are sorry to your ancestors, and even more sorry to the people of the world, you owe the people of the world an uprising!"

"I owe, owe the world an uprising?"

"Yes!" The strong man named Zhang 21 (his parents chose the name casually) also nodded and said, "Third brother, so many good men have died in your name these years, but you have done nothing, How can you be worthy of the people of the world?"

Well, this crime has been raised fast enough, and it has risen from being sorry to the ancestors to being sorry to the people of the world in a while.

Wang Shiyuan continued to shake his head: "But now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is powerful, Susong Town has been set up in Suzhou and Songjiang, and heavy troops have been stationed. How can the uprising succeed? If there is no success, there may be an uprising. Isn't it just an increase in casualties?"

Chen Yonghua shook his head and said: "No, not because the uprising in Suzhou didn't just increase the number of deaths and injuries, but the dead will all get what they deserve!

First of all, Suzhou did not have a heavy army from the Qing court. Although Susong Town was an important town, the soldiers in Susong Town were all on Chongming Island, and the general government office of Susong Town was also on Chongming Island.There is only one weak brigade in the city of Suzhou. Although there is another governor of Jiangsu (also known as the governor of Jiangning), Ma Hu (pronounced as sloppy) is going to Jiangning to meet the imperial envoy Kang Wangjieshu and the prince of Jingnan. Geng Jingzhong and his party must follow most of his bidders.We can just take advantage of the opportunity to make a fuss in Suzhou City. When the Qing army on Chongming Island crosses the river, we will have already turned Suzhou City upside down.

Secondly, it is not you who was pushed out to be the third prince Zhu this time, but someone else, and this person, he is not an ordinary person!It was Wang Yongkang, the dry son-in-law of King Pingxi.He did not want to replace you by acting in your name, but wanted to rise to the top and create the first righteousness for the revival of China!If you can join in, even if you just wave the flag and shout, it will make this first uprising to revive Ming Dynasty more legitimate. "

It turns out that Wang Zhongxiao and Chen Yonghua designed a big show for the two third princes of Zhu!
One of them, the third prince Zhu, died honorably, his name will go down in history, and his name will last through the ages. He dragged Wu Sangui onto the thief boat and broke Kangxi's situation where he wanted Shi Langna to vote for the name.

And the other third prince Zhu wanted to repay the people of the world with an uprising, and at the same time cut off the idea of ​​"cowarding the rest of his life".

Only when the true Third Prince Zhu's "counseling" is broken, will he wholeheartedly follow Yang Qilong to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty!

Otherwise, even if you take him to Beijing, you have to keep an eye on this guy all the time, and don't let him slip away by himself.If he didn't slip away and was caught by the government of the Qing Dynasty, he would be in big trouble.

In addition, if you want to fight against the Qing Dynasty now, you still have to use the banner of "anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty". After all, the concept of "republican revolution" is not understood by the big guys, so you can't encourage it!Therefore, if the business of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty is successful, the third prince Zhu may need to stand up and be the king of Xu Junsu for a few days.So he can't do nothing and just pick up what's ready to eat.

"The third prince Zhu who was pushed out by you is really the son-in-law of King Pingxi?" The third prince Zhu Wang Shiyuan looked at Chen Yonghua again, "Then who are you?"

Chen Yonghua smiled and cupped his fists and said: "My lord, Chen Fufu, the Pingxi Palace consulted to join the army! He came to the south of the Yangtze River to help the prince's godson-in-law to make trouble in the name of the third prince Zhu under the order of the prince. The prince has been looking for you all these years. The third prince Zhu, but he has not been found, so we can only make a fake one."

"What? You, you are from Pingxi Palace?" Wang Shiyuan looked at the scholar with a Fujian accent in his accent, with a dubious expression on his face.

Shouldn't this accent belong to Jingnan Wang Geng Jimao?

"Third brother," Chang Mingyue saw Wang Shiyuan's suspicious expression, and hurried to prove it for Chen Yonghua, "Fufu is indeed from Pingxi Palace. Obai's help, everything is ready, the only thing missing is a righteous name.

If there is a Third Prince Zhu who can rise up in the southeast and play a banner of anti Qing and Ming Dynasty, then the prince will raise troops to respond again, wouldn't it be justified? "

When Wang Shiyuan heard it, he also felt that it made sense, and his heart moved a little, "Your Highness really wants to turn against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty?"

"Of course!" Chen Yonghua nodded, "If the lord does not use the banner of the third prince Zhu, the people of the world will not accept him! So what the lord means is to ask the third prince Zhu to raise the flag of righteousness first, and then he will respond. In the future, I will let you be a hypocrite." King Junsu, hang down and rule the world.

If the old man knew your whereabouts earlier, he would definitely not make a fake third prince Zhu.But it doesn't matter, if things happen in Suzhou by luck, you can come forward to take over.If it doesn't work, you can hide in Beijing with Mingyue and brother 21, and Yang Qianhu's son will naturally keep you safe. "

Chang Mingyue smiled and said: "Third brother, there is no risk in this matter, let's do it! If it succeeds, you can also be the emperor, and we loyal ministers who have kept you will be rewarded for our merits in the future!"

"Exactly!" Brother Zhang 21's complexion was not so good-looking, and he said coldly, "I have been following His Highness for many years and risked my life to protect him loyally. If you don't do it, don't do it!"

If you don't do it, it will definitely not work!
This true third prince of Zhu can escape the pursuit of the Qing court, can still study, can marry a wife and have children, and now he can open a private school in Yuyao to hang out. 21 and so on the merits of the martyrs in the rivers and lakes.

Now that the restoration of Ming Dynasty is expected, he has a chance to be a puppet emperor, how could he not do it?

If he doesn't do it, how will Chang Mingyue, Zhang 21 and the others recover their investment?

"Okay!" Wang Shiyuan finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll do it. I, Zhu Cijiong, indeed owed the people of the world an uprising, and I'll just pay them back." He paused, "But my family doesn't know anything. , can you arrange a way out for them?"

Chen Yonghua smiled: "It's easy to handle. Tomorrow, we will go to the Yuyao County Government to find Pan Zhixian, and let him take care of your family."

Wang Shiyuan was a little dumbfounded: "Let the magistrate of the Qing Dynasty take care of my family? Is this possible?"

"Why not?" Chen Yonghua said with a smile, "You are also an official of the Qing Dynasty now, and you are the eighth-rank candidate for the county magistrate, walking on the sticky pole. By the way, we even arranged a good relative for you, saying that you are the president's military training minister Wang Fuchen You are his cousin. You were lost due to the chaos of the war, and now you are finally found, so I arranged for you to work at the sticky pole. The president's military training minister has a high position, and his son Wang's bodyguard is still sticky stick The chief and the first-class bodyguard in front of the imperial court are also the disciples of Mingzhu, the great scholar, and Duolong, the governor of Liangjiang. With such good relatives, it is too late for Panzhi County of Yuyao to curry favor with you!"

Jiangning is full of the city, and the governor of the two rivers is the yamen.

The soldiers of the governor of the two rivers lined up in a neat four-row line at the gate of the yamen, holding the governor's minister's festival flag.All the soldiers were dressed as soldiers from the Green Battalion, most of them were carrying spears and swords, and about [-]% of the soldiers were carrying shotguns and stood quietly.A young military officer holding a knife at his waist walked back and forth in front of the team.

The Governor's Office door is open.The staff of the supervisory office, as well as the "official Bailao" waiting for vacancies in the governor's office of Liangjiang, were all waiting outside the gate.Governor of Liangjiang Duolong, General Echu of Jiangning, Governor of Jiangsu Ma Hu, Admiral Liang Huafeng of Jiangnan, and Shi Lang, the former admiral of the Fujian Navy who arrived with a thousand Fujian soldiers just a few days ago, joined this group of staff and "officials." Surrounded by "Bai Lao", he stood under the gate with the plaque "Governor's Department of Liangjiang" hanging on it.On the two tall flagpoles outside the gate, Duolong's commander-in-chief flag and the flag of Liangjiang Governor fluttered.

Duolong looked fatter than when he was the foreman guard in Beijing that day. Standing there, he looked like a meat mountain. His big face was so fat that he had a double chin, and he couldn't help smiling now. From ear to ear, he was still smiling while talking about his heroic deeds of chasing Oboi with Governor Mahu of Jiangsu, Admiral Liang Old Admiral of Jiangnan, General E of Jiangning, and Shi Lang who just came from Fujian. A few words about Wang Zhongxiao.

".My apprentice is very powerful. Do you know what weapon he used to plot against that old thief Oboi? Brick! That old thief Oboi is very careful. He always wears chain mail to enter and leave the palace gate. An ordinary sword You can't hurt him. If you want to capture him in close combat, no one is sure of victory. So my apprentice came up with the damaging move of hitting people with bricks. He smashed Oboi's head and blood, and ran away screaming Get out of the Qianqing Gate!"

Hearing Duolong talk about Xingtou, General Jiangning Echu, Governor of Jiangsu Mahu, and Liang Huafeng, who once defeated Zheng Chenggong in Chongming Island and is now old and has to walk on crutches, all laughed in response to the occasion. From time to time, I added a few words.Only Shi Lang, who had a big pancake face, two mustaches, and his skin was tanned by the sea sun, was expressionless at this moment, just standing there with his head held high, not knowing what he was thinking. ?
While Duolong was bragging there, the convoy of the imperial envoy had already meandered into the city of Jiangning.

The team this time was unusually large.After all, the person on this errand was Prince Kang Jieshu, who was one of the "eight great" princes of the Qing Dynasty, a hereditary rich man, how could he be small?Moreover, the main task of this trip was to escort Geng Jingzhong, the heir of Prince Jingnan, back to Fujian Jiufan.

This prince also has a lot of ostentation. He has been a prince in Beijing for many years, and he has raised a large group of retainers, servants, monks, and old Taoists—this guy seems to like fortune-telling and word testing. , A scholar named Yu Renying kept counting there, and sometimes the three of them would quarrel very seriously because of fortune-telling issues, which was really eye-opening.

Wang Zhongxiao also brought a large group of people, his two wives "Yang Xiaotu" and Yang Xiaohuan, and Yang Xiaohuan's mother Jin Yuhuan also followed under the pretext of going to Jiangnan to visit their relatives—in fact, they were indeed visiting relatives, Yang Qilong's Aunt Jin Yuhuan is the nanny of Prince Ding Zhu Cijiong, and this time she is here to take care of the third prince Zhu.And "Yang Xiaotu" (Wu Xiaotu) came to recognize "Wu Ake", Ake!If she really married that Wang Yongkang, how could she be saved?

In addition to "Yang Xiaotu", Yang Xiaohuan, Jin Yuhuan, and the maids who served them, Wang Zhongxiao's team also included He Tianran, Yu Haitao, and Wang Leiyong, the three leaders of the soldiers and dozens of soldiers they brought (some of them were given by Wu Shijue). Some of them are Yang Qilong’s people, some of them are given by Wang Fuchen), this large group of people, as well as Imperial Physician Le, Yuan Linjing and their entourages—among them, Yuan Linjing will also set up Ruixintang Jiangnan branch in Suzhou, so he leads a large group of people. Buddy and bodyguard for the silver.

In addition, Jing Chuan, Zhang Jingke, Zhu Xu, Jiang Zixiang, and Wang Shengming, the five "official Bailao", also brought their family members, masters, attendants, bodyguards, and a lot of people to the south with Wang Zhongxiao. Of course, these followed Most of these five candidate county magistrates are disciples of Yang Qilong.The heirs of the Jinyiwei of the former dynasty are now eating Gongmen food again!

With such three groups of people gathered together, can the team be made smaller?
However, this group of people walked quite fast. They didn't go out until after eating the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It is not yet May, and the team has already arrived in Jiangning. It is really "fast enough"!

Wang Zhongxiao pondered, with such a speed, it would take about a year to return to Beijing after finishing the work!
It's no wonder that the group of unlucky "officials Bailao" can spend as long as eight years on average after being selected as a Jinshi. But with this kind of efficiency, when will the Qing Dynasty be "finally" gone?

Just thinking about the "end" of the Qing Dynasty, this huge team arrived outside Liangjiang Governor's Department. Just as the voice in the transmission came to mind, the military officer in command of the Governor's pacesetters gave a loud order: "Raise the gun, applaud!"

Then I heard the bugle of "whimpering" and the seven cannons of "puff puff puff" sounded one after another.The officials waiting outside the supervisory office, including Governor Duo Long of Liangjiang, all clattered their sleeves: "I (slaves) welcome Sheng An, please refer to the Minister of Imperial Envoy!"

The imperial envoys represent the emperor, and the courtesy to welcome them is great!
Prince Kang Jieshu jumped off his horse, and his movements were very agile. It was obvious from a glance that he often rode horses.Geng Jingzhong was not bad either, he also jumped off the horse.Then I saw the Geshha of the two people swarming up, like stars supporting the moon, surrounded them and walked towards the gate of Liangjiang Governor's Yamen, it was really majestic.

Wang Zhongxiao's equestrian skills are much better than those of Jie Shu and Geng Jingzhong, but he didn't show off the limelight, he just got off his horse lightly, and then went to help the elderly Le doctor——this Le doctor's name was Xiansheng, My ancestors came to Beijing to practice medicine during the Yongle period, and it has been passed down to the "Xian" generation. Not only did several become imperial doctors, but they also opened a Tongren Pharmacy, which was the predecessor of Tongrentang!
Along the way, Wang Zhongxiao has become friends with this miracle doctor who either cured his illness with the medicine or cured his life with the medicine.And this genius doctor often went to Yang Xiaohuan's mother, Jin Yuhuan. Jin Yuhuan was only in her 40s this year, and she was usually well maintained.Along the way, he hooked up with Doctor Le for a while, and almost took the old man's soul away.

Wang Zhongxiao was very happy to facilitate good things. Just when he was about to say a few words to Miracle Doctor Le to encourage the old man to pursue happiness, Prince Kang and Jieshu had already strode up to the officials attending the ceremony. He answered loudly with a straight face: "Saint Boon!"

The officials attending the court ceremony got up one after another, while Duolong and others went forward to greet Jie Shu and Geng Jingzhong.Na Duolong had seen Wang Zhongxiao a long time ago, exchanged a few words with Jie Shu and Geng Jingzhong, and then greeted Wang Zhongxiao loudly: "Big head, come here quickly, I want to die as a teacher! Hahaha"

Hearing Duolong calling himself, Wang Zhongxiao had no choice but to go to see him first, walked up to Duolong, saluted him a thousand times, and Duolong gave him a hand, then pointed to Shi Lang beside him and said to Wang Zhongxiao: " Shi Kai, this is Marquis Shi Zun, the former admiral of the Fujian Navy, the upcoming military training minister, and your Ama's deputy!"

Looking at Shi Lang with Duolong fingers, Wang Zhongxiao's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this Shi Lang too diligent?He came from Fujian so quickly, so his thousand Fujian soldiers should have also arrived in Jiangsu, right?When there is a riot in Suzhou, will he rush to suppress it?
