Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 289
Prince?
Zhu Changyuan grinned slightly and smiled.

Isn't the prince the same as that brat Zhu Cihong?In other words, when I think of him, I think of his imperial aunt Zhang Yan.

"Angel inside please!"

People respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot. This is Zhu Changyuan's principle of doing things.

Since the little eunuch in front of him is so kind, Zhu Changyuan is naturally willing to treat him well.

Inviting the little eunuch into the small reception hall, Zhu Changyuan personally poured him a large glass of Coke, and took out some snacks brought from modern society.

The little eunuch was immediately flattered, stood up and bowed his hands to Zhu Changyuan, and said: "The general has beaten your servant."

Zhu Changyuan chuckled and said, "It's okay, you've been exhausted all the way, and it's been a lot of hard work. You should have done all of this."

The little eunuch groped in his arms for a while, took out a crumpled envelope, handed it to Zhu Changyuan, and said, "This is a secret letter from the crown prince to the general. After the general reads it, burn it."

After Zhu Changyuan took the letter, he didn't open it immediately, but put it in his pocket rather casually.

After chatting with the little eunuch for a while, Zhu Changyuan wrote a memorial to him on the spot and said, "When my father-in-law returns to Beijing, please hand over this memorial to Your Majesty."

"Yes!" The little eunuch took it respectfully.

Zhu Changyuan's memorandum was written to cooperate with Li Xin's bitter plan, and it was full of complaints, and of course Xiong Wencan was the one who sued.

Even at the end, he offered to send troops eastward to attack Xiangyang.

Of course, as long as Emperor Chongzhen is not a fool, it is impossible for Zhu Changyuan to agree to raise troops to the east.

It's very simple. After Zhu Changyuan came to Shaanxi, although he had some tribulations, he has stabilized the situation in southern Shaanxi. If he really raised troops to attack Xiangyang, wouldn't Shaanxi become a mess again?

In order to ensure that the letter could safely reach the emperor, before the young eunuch left, Zhu Changyuan sent a team of troops familiar with the terrain of Shaanxi to escort him all the way to Henan.

After arriving in Henan, all the way to the north is under the control of the Ming Empire, and it is impossible for the envoys of the emperor to encounter any danger.

After seeing off the little eunuch, Zhu Changyuan couldn't wait to run into his study, opened the crumpled envelope, took out a neatly folded note and opened it, a unique and familiar fragrance Come on.

In fact, there was no substantive content written on the paper, but after seeing those beautiful lower characters, Zhu Changyuan's blood spurted like chicken blood.

At the same time, he muttered and recited:

"How deep is the courtyard?

The cloud window and fog pavilion are often closed,

The willow shoots and plum calyx are gradually becoming clear!
Spring returns to the moling tree,
Old people build Kangcheng. "

When reading this, Zhu Changyuan's heart trembled.

He is naturally familiar with this poem, isn't it Li Qingzhao's "Linjiang Immortal", Zhu Changyuan not only knows the author of this poem, but also knows that the first sentence of the courtyard is originally from Ouyang Xiu's poem, and Li Qingzhao also borrowed it .

He has read and memorized it before, but he has never felt touched this time.

How old is this Zhang Yan, isn't she just a few years older than herself, so she began to lament the oldness.

However, Zhu Changyuan was right when he thought about it carefully. For a woman who lost her husband and lived hopelessly in the deep palace all day, every quarter of an hour of her life was a kind of torture.

"How much is it to feel the moon and sing the wind.

Now old age is useless,

Who pity haggard more withered?

There's no point in trying lights.
I am not in the mood to step on the snow. "

. . .

"Whoever pities the haggard is more withered, whoever pities the haggard is more withered, whoever pities the haggard is more withered."

Zhu Changyuan chanted a few lines over and over again, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, a feeling of heart block that he hadn't felt for a long time suddenly surged.

Suddenly thought of a poem that best represented his mood at the moment.

He picked up the pen, took out a piece of paper, and used his crappy, crooked and characteristic calligraphy to swipe it.

After writing for a long time, I read it carefully, and there are no typos.

Then, he folded the paper neatly and put it in the original envelope, sealed it, rode on the tall horse himself, and galloped eastward all the way, arriving at the departing angel team half an hour later.

Seeing the little eunuch, he got off his horse and handed the letter to him personally, saying: "Please trouble your father-in-law to hand this letter to the crown prince in person, and don't let outsiders know."

"The servant knows!"

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Changyuan fumbled out a lot of gold from his bosom again. The Jinyiwei where he was staying was a piece of 50 taels each, and then ordered his two ten thousand enemies to personally send the angel back to Beijing.To ensure that his letter of Feihong can reach Zhang Yan smoothly.

After everything was arranged properly, I went westward and returned to Hanzhong.

After arriving in the mansion, he suddenly felt weak all over, and a certain nerve of longing in his heart was accidentally tensed, which almost drained all the strength in Zhu Changyuan's body, and he seemed extremely lazy at the moment.

Looking up at the window, the sun is shining, and it is scattered in the courtyard, like a trace of gold, bright and warm.

I sent out all the servants in the small courtyard of the mansion, and personally pulled a folding bed and spread it in the courtyard, with a thick mattress on it. After sleeping on it, I fell asleep after basking in the sun for a while.

Outside the courtyard, Polu and Kong He patrolled back and forth, protecting Zhu Changyuan's safety at all times.

In fact, with Zhu Changyuan's current vigilance, the enemy would be able to detect it within fifty steps of him, and there was no need to break the prisoner and Kong He to stand guard.

But since the two of them have this heart, he can't refuse too much.

In a daze, a shadowy figure suddenly flashed in his mind.

He wanted to see the other person's face clearly, but he squinted his eyes for a long time and couldn't see it clearly. He tried to walk in, and then looked around under the dim light, but he could only see the back of that person.

"husband!"

"husband!"

. . .

There were crisp voices shouting, Zhu Changyuan closed his eyes, and listened carefully, it seemed to be Yu Min's voice, and it seemed to be Lana's voice.

For some reason, the voice became clearer and clearer, but it became increasingly difficult to tell who was shouting. As the voice became clearer, the light in his consciousness gradually became clearer.

As soon as the woman turned her face, Zhu Changyuan smiled inwardly when he saw it, it turned out that it was really Yumin.

"Yumin, why are you here? Where is this?"

Zhu Changyuan ran over with a smile, and just about to embrace the beauty, the figure in front of him suddenly changed into Lana.

"Ouch!" Zhu Changyuan said with a smile, "Lana, you are the most mischievous, and you have nothing to do to pretend to be your sister Yumin." While speaking, he rubbed his eyes vigorously to prevent further mistakes.

Holding Lana's hand, he asked, "Why are you here?"

Lana smiled slyly and said, "Master, look at who I am again?"

Flickering, Lana's bright and clean face suddenly turned into the beautiful and beautiful Zhang Yan, the empress of the past.

"you are?"

Seeing the beautiful and charming Zhang Yan in his arms, Zhu Changyuan didn't have the slightest intention of profanity, but asked nervously: "Who are you, and why did you come to play with me?"

Zhang Yan said: "Doesn't your husband want to keep us by your side day and night?"

Zhu Changyuan said nonsense in his heart, I haven't written a word with you yet, but he said seriously, "Monster, you haven't shown your original shape yet!"

Zhang Yan said: "Okay, I will show my original shape, don't be afraid."

After finishing speaking, his face changed again and again from Lana to Yu Min, but in the end, it settled on a face that he was no longer familiar with.

"what..."

Zhu Changyuan screamed in fright, and quickly threw the woman in his arms on the ground. He suddenly woke up from a dream.

His hands were wet, and sweat dripped from his forehead.

"It's really unlucky!" Zhu Changyuan wiped off the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Why did I dream of that unlucky woman, Zhu Changyuan, Zhu Changyuan, haven't you completely forgotten after so long?"

Look at the weather, the sun is on the head, it is almost noon.

Polu and Kong He walked in from the door, with panicked expressions on their faces, they asked in unison: "General! Master! What happened?"

Zhu Changyuan waved his hand, took a deep breath and sat up on the foldable bed, and said, "It's okay, sleep is stressing my nerves, so I just yelled casually, let's go, let's go eat together."

"Yes!"

Just now it was agreed to eat, but before the meal was eaten, another incident came from the distant land of Jingxiang.

Great victory in Xiangyang!

Oh, no, it should be said that Xiangyang's defense was successful.

Zuo Liangyu personally led an army of [-] to attack Xiangyang. At the beginning, the offensive was very fierce, using ladders and digging holes, scaring Xiong Wencan in Xiangyang City so much that he almost peed his pants, and ran to Li Xin's residence all day long. Let Li Xin think of a way to retreat from the enemy.

Xiong Wencan was anxious for a reason. If Zuo Liangyu captured Xiangyang City, he, Xiong, would be the first to be escorted back to the capital. The result can be imagined.

Li Xin looked at Zuo Liangyu's army, just smiled slightly, and said: "Don't be afraid, the soldiers will cover the water and soil!" Then, he ordered the soldiers in the whole city to defend the city with all their strength, and only defend and not attack, so as not to change the situation. Responding to all kinds of changes, he persisted for more than ten days.

Xiangyang City remained motionless, and Zuo Liangyu's offensive gradually slowed down!

Not long after, Wang Wu and Guo Cheng led the troops from Yun County and Gucheng to reinforce them, and fought Zuo Liangyu's soldiers outside Xiangyang City.

Although Guo Cheng and Wang Wu were brave, the soldiers under them were far inferior to Zuo Liangyu's elite soldiers. If the two generals were not fierce, they might not be able to resist Zuo Liangyu.

In this way, the war has fallen into a stalemate.

But the final result was beyond everyone's expectations!
Cheng Bujing, who was hiding deep in Fang County, made a surprise attack without anyone noticing, and quietly led his army out of Fang County, and then thousands of people rushed overnight to Nanyang, Zuo Liangyu's lair, and succeeded in a surprise attack.

What shocked the world even more was that the person who planned all this behind the scenes was Cheng Bujing's wife, Huang Yueniang.

The next battle was easy to fight, Zuo Liangyu was surrounded by enemies, so he had to retreat to Henan.

And Xiong Wencan's power in Xiangyang has once again grown.

Astonished!
