Chapter 9 Wang Chengen's trip to Phi Island

After September, even if the sun is shining, the temperature in Pi Island is not much higher. Even if it is warmed a little at noon, it will still make people feel cold from their skin to their bones. In September of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, it is almost the end of the year, and the temperature here is even lower. People on the island will never come out if they can get in the house. In the north, there will be no situation like in the south, where "winter is too cold, and we go out to be warm and warm", which has always been "too cold outside, and we won't go out today."

But early this morning, the people on Pi Island came out early, not to bask in the sun, but to welcome angels.

It was a cold day when someone called out from the room to greet the angels. I guess no one would be happy.

"What's wrong with the emperor? I suddenly remembered the place where birds don't poop?"

"Isn't it urging us to fight again?"

"I don't know if the angel comes this time, and he has brought some money. After a few years, the family will be unable to get rid of the blame."

"Who knows, it's good that the emperor can remember our place. Is the food and salary? It's so bad."

"I heard that when the emperor believed in the king, he was dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian and trusted all the wise men of the Donglin Party. I guess Long live to clean up the eunuch party and we will have a good life in the future."

"Where did this stupidity come from? Have you cleaned up the eunuch party? Are you a damn pig? When did our general ask for food and grass? Didn't it allocate us to us as the eunuch party you mentioned? When did all the men in Donglin remember us, Qiu Ba?"

"Damn, is it because our food and salary are allocated by the eunuch party, so the emperor treats us as eunuch party? Now that the emperor has killed the eunuch party, he treats us as rebellious?"

"No way? If we are also rebellious, why are we working hard to guard the Tartars on Pidao?"

"It shouldn't be? I heard that the emperor is extremely wise when he was in the hidden residence. He shouldn't regard us as rebellious, right?"

As the saying goes, three people become tigers, and the words of the crowd make gold. At first, they were just curious about how an angel would come to Pi Island. As the spread was passed on, it seemed that the emperor wanted to take the people from Pi Island as rebellion and arrest and question them.

Mao Wenlong was standing in front of the team that welcomed the angels on the dock. When he heard the buzzing discussion behind him, he turned around and shouted, "It's all quiet, how loud it looks like? When Zi is wise and powerful today, he will definitely not have the situation you said. Labor and Capital is still standing here. If you have any questions, start with labor and capital. Why are you panic? Then there are such nonsense to disturb the morale of the army!"

It has to be said that Mao Wenlong's personality charm is indeed very high. In the original history, Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, the "Friend of the Great Jin Dynasty" and the entire Dongjiang Town was divided into pieces. It was no longer difficult to work together to cause trouble to Mi Qing. After that, Mi Qing could safely bypass the Ningjin defense line and go south without taking into account the rear. It has to be said that Yuan Chonghuan deserves the great and glorious title of Friends of Mi Qing.

After a round of shouts, the discussion behind gradually stopped.

Mao Wenlong nodded with satisfaction, and then heard the deputy general standing next to him shout: "Master, the ship is here!"

Mao Wenlong looked back and saw a warship that was obviously the Denglai Navy Division was slowly sailing over.

Suddenly an angel came to pass the imperial edict and asked the soldiers of Pidao to gather and announce the edict. Mao Wenlong was also confused when he received the notice. He could not guess what new way of playing today, and he was even more worried that the emperor would slapped his head and sent him to fight the Mi Qing Tartars. This is not impossible. When the emperor was in the secret residence, he believed in the people of the Donglin Party. None of the civil officials were good!

Since Pi Island is far away from the Ming Dynasty, many things are not known in time, especially when Emperor Chongzhen peeled the former chief minister Han Yu. At present, the people in the capital know that the chief minister Huang Liji of the dynasty had greedy for more than 6 million taels of silver, so it is said that the emperor killed him well. Outside the capital, there was already a vague emperor killing him. Rumors like a tyrant have begun to spread. Of course, the spreaders are all scholars. For the common people, what's wrong with a good emperor who issued an order to never add a tax to kill a few ministers? It must be those treacherous ministers who should be killed!

No matter what Mao Wenlong thought, the ship carrying the angels was getting closer and closer, and finally stopped on the dock. When the angel got off the boat, Mao Wenlong felt more and more uneasy.

The angel who got off the ship was not a civil and military minister, but an eunuch who seemed to be of high rank, followed by more than a dozen quite majestic Han generals.

Mao Wenlong hurriedly came forward and said to the angel: "It's hard for the angel to come from afar. The generals have ordered people to prepare food and drinks. It's just that the land of Liaodong is bitter and cold, and I hope the angels will forgive you." For generals like Mao Wenlong, it is impossible to count on these dead eunuchs to help you. But if they want to cause trouble for you, it's a whim!

The angel who came to announce the imperial edict was none other than Wang Chengen, who was always in Chongzhen's way. In Chongzhen's plan, Pidao was a very important part of the future and even the current plan. Emperor Chongzhen, who was too cautious, was really worried that others would come to announce the imperial edict, and finally sent Wang Chengen out. As for Chongzhen, no one is more trustworthy than Fang Zhenghua, the leader of the Eastern Sect, and Wang Chengen who accompanied him to hang himself on the coal mountain. The Eastern Sect Master had great force and had to keep him by his side to protect himself at all times, so he had to send Wang Chengen out.

As the eunuch who has been with Chongzhen for the longest time, although Chongzhen's mind has become difficult to figure out recently, for Wang Chengen, who regards Chongzhen as his own, he knows very well how much the emperor values ​​Mao Wenlong.

He said to Mao Wenlong: "Master Mao, don't rush to eat this meal. When our family is about to come, the emperor has given instructions to the soldiers of Pidao."

Although Mao Wenlong was not showing his face, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes from time to time. Wang Chengen smiled and said, "Master, please be content. This time, it is a good thing for our family to come! Let the soldiers go to the schoolyard, so that our family can announce the oral instructions of the Emperor and his order to Maldives."

Seeing this, Mao Wenlong felt a little calmer, so he led everyone around Wang Chengen and his party to the schoolyard.

When he arrived at the school ground, Wang Chengen ascended the procuratorate platform, and the big Han generals behind him stood together. This was because he was afraid that Wang Chengen would not have a far-far enough voice, so he specially selected a dozen big Han generals with loud voices. Wang Chengen said something, and they shouted, so as to ensure that everyone on the school ground could hear it.

When Wang Chengen saw that everyone had already stood in their positions on the procuratorate stage, he nodded and said, "Our family is now reading the oral order of the emperor." After that, he shook the whisk in his hand. More than ten great Han generals behind him also shouted Wang Chengen's words.

"I, Emperor Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty, said to the soldiers who fought bloody battles to defend the Ming Dynasty in Pi Island in Liaodong: Thank you for your hard work! The Ming Dynasty will not forget your efforts today, I will not forget, and the people will not forget!"

With a buzzing sound, the procuratorate was in an uproar. No one could believe his ears. Did the emperor say such a straightforward word? Did the emperor say to us big-headed soldiers? Shouldn't we be punished for something we don't understand?
