Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 179

Zhu Yousong worked hard in his heart, his face remained calm, and after hearing He Zhaoxiong's explanation, he stopped his recklessness.

Zhu Yousong calmed down and calculated the time. Now there are still three days before the time for the beheading action agreed with Lu Jiude. It is supposed to be time to act, but he has not yet received any reports from soldiers from Henan, Xu Si, Yangzhou, Zhenjiang and other places. The exact news is that it is easy to kill Liu Zeqing, but it is difficult to deal with his [-] soldiers. Zhu Yousong originally planned to wait another day, get up tomorrow morning and hurry to Huai'an, but he did not expect things to change, and now he can only adapt to the situation. Look at this What exactly is Lieutenant General Li doing here? Let's make plans.

Therefore, after Zhu Yousong thought about it, he asked He Zhaoxiong to take people down the mountain to greet him as if nothing had happened, while Zhu Yousong took He Xuanjiao to hide behind the Juyi hall, and asked Liu Zhaoji to lead a thousand soldiers and horses in ambush. Around the Juyi Hall, let Li Quan and Xiaohong lead a thousand soldiers to sneak down from the back mountain to copy Li Huajing's back route, and the rest of the thousand soldiers should do whatever they want in the cottage, so as to confuse Li Huajing.

Zhu Yousong's intention in such an arrangement is obvious. Once they fall out, they will never let Li Huajing's 5000 troops go back alive.

After everything was ready, He Zhaoxiong led his people down the mountain and warmly and grandly took Li Huajing and others into the cottage.

The Zhuang soldiers on the mountain were blowing and beating, and He Zhaoxiong and Li Huajing were very enthusiastic when they met, so they held hands together, like stars holding the moon, and five hundred Huai'an soldiers came to the Juyi hall lively with the bride price.

Entering the Juyi hall, the guests and hosts were seated, the servants offered tea, and after the tea was finished, Li Huajing thanked the old man on behalf of Liu Zeqing, thanking him for helping their uncle, sending the hateful imperial envoy to the bottom of the lake, and The gift list of thanks comes on.

He Zhaoxiong was polite as usual, but this time he would not refuse any of these important gifts, and would accept them all as they were ordered. Li Huajing was very happy. It seems that my old brother has figured it out. As long as you accept the gifts, the conversation will continue It's easy to say.

Strike while the iron is hot, Li Huajing brought up the matter of letting the old man lead the team to Huai'an to join Liu Zeqing, saying that their uncle is a very arrogant hero in the villa, and he planned to invite him in person, but he was not fit enough to let him be the plenipotentiary representative , and throw out a series of preferential conditions as long as you go there, and so on.

After hearing what he said, He Zhaoxiong smiled indifferently: "Grandfather, we two brothers have been friends for many years. Mr. Gong should understand the old man best. There are two things in this old man's life. One is the most moral, and the other is that he hates the government the most. For the sake of our brother being in such a deep relationship, can Engong tell Brother Yu the truth, is it because Master Liu sent Engong here this time because he has no intention of drinking!"

Li Huajing was taken aback, which meant that his uncle had no good intentions.

In fact, he had no good intentions. He helped him. Not only did he not appreciate him, but he also wanted to annex him, and he also wanted to attract the attention of his daughter. It was nothing like a beast.

But Li Huajing didn't think so, shook his head and said: "Old brother misunderstood, although our uncle is Dongping Bo in the imperial court, he has always admired the prestige of old brother, and the younger brother is working hard in it, uncle has no intention of copying mountains and destroying villages , but then again, if Uncle really has this intention, not to mention that there are only 2000 people in the Green Willow Villa, even [-] horses may not be able to stop Uncle's [-] army. You have helped the uncle again, the uncle wants to get closer to you, and the niece is not too young. If the two of you can form a good relationship between Qin and Jin, the niece will be blessed for a lifetime, and the elder brother will be prosperous in the near future, so there is no need to worry anymore The land is relegated to this remote mountain."

As expected, He Zhaoxiong sneered, "Thank you benefactor and Master Liu for your kindness, but the little girl is already married, I'm afraid I will disappoint benefactor and master Liu."

"Oh? You mean that the niece is engaged. When did it happen? Who has such a great fortune to be in the eyes of the elder brother and the niece?" Li Huajing was surprised.

He Zhaoxiong said in a serious manner: "Of course there is a noble person, this person may be known to your benefactor, you are officials in the same dynasty, and you have a good relationship with your daughter, just now this matter is settled, the old man is about to present a wedding poster to treat your benefactor to a wedding wine Well, benefactor is here."

"Still a member of the government?" Li Huajing was even more surprised. He looked at He Zhaoxiong with wide eyes, and then smiled playfully, "My brother has also learned to be humorous. How can I make my brother happy? Just now my brother said that he hates the government the most in his life." , how can you let your niece marry someone in the government?"

"It can't be generalized. There are good people in the government. Isn't Mr. En just a person in the government?"

"Ah...hahaha, the old brother said the same thing. But in Huai'an and most of Yangzhou, our uncle's world, who would dare to come to the mountain to ask for marriage without going through the uncle, can you let the little brother see it?"

"Of course, it happens that Jiao Ke is on the mountain, so this old man invites the future aunt to come out to meet benefactor."

As He Zhaoxiong said, he rushed to the back of the screen and yelled: "My son-in-law, my benefactor is not an outsider, so come out and meet me."

Li Huajing stared outside, thinking in his heart, it seems that this is true, alas, who is so bold and dares to compete with our uncle for a woman, could it be someone from the Sansi Yamen in Suzhou, it seems that he is Tired of life!
At this moment, two people came out from behind and came into his line of sight. A man and a woman stood side by side, which was a match made in heaven. The woman's face was slightly flushed, and he was blessed with happiness, "Xuan Jiao has met your benefactor."

"Don't be benefactor and benefactor is short, just call uncle..." Li Huajing said with a fake smile, his eyes fell on Zhu Yousong's face, Zhu Yousong was staring at him calmly, two The four eyes of the people are facing each other.

Zhu Yousong in front of him was wearing a white shirt, with long shiny black hair in a high bundle, holding a folding fan in his hand, and standing there calmly, Yan Ran was the son of a wealthy family, Kuo Shao.

Li Huajing thinks this person looks familiar, who is it, a member of the government, Li Huajing used his brains, because his memory is amazing, he excluded all the high-ranking officials in Huai'an and Suzhou, and soon he delineated the identity of this person, and felt that Impossible, but after confirming his vision, he broke out in a cold sweat.

As Dong Pingbo's deputy general, Li Huajing's rank in the army is also the commander-in-chief, which is higher than those under Dong Pingbo's command, so he followed Liu Zeqing to see Zhu Yousong's true face more than once.

That was the period in history when Zhu Yousong announced that he would supervise the country and later ascended the throne in Nandu. At that time, under the pressure of the great eunuch Lu Jiude, the warlords of Huang Degong, Gao Jie, and Liu Liangzuo took Zhu Yousong to the ceremony behind the backs of Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang. Really, after seeking support, Liu Zeqing was naturally unwilling to lag behind when he got the news, and with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, he also started the business of Conglong Yuanxun. The facial features and appearance are deeply imprinted in my mind.

Although the current Zhu Yousong is not a dragon crown and Xiapei, his body has changed a lot from the bloated Zhu Yousong because of his martial arts training, and there are no eunuchs and palace maids and royal guards around him, such royal style, but the unique facial features The combination cannot be changed, so Li Huajing confirmed Zhu Yousong's identity after several repetitions in his mind.

It turned out that Li Huajing was still waiting for this daring "official" to salute him, because from the public's point of view, this area is Liu Zeqing and his world, no matter how big an official sees him, he has to bow to him. Bow; From the point of view of personal relationship, he and He Zhaoxiong are righteous brothers, and He Xuanjiao is his niece, and the person who is engaged to her will naturally be spared for a lifetime.

But now, he's completely broken.
