Chapter 52 Life with a beautiful wish

Hong Chengchou took off a pine needle from his hair and flipped it out casually.

Chen Dong, who was sitting in another wooden cage van, said: "Can your plan succeed?"

Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "Whether it is successful depends on God's will, we have already worked hard anyway."

Chen Dong said: "Are you really not afraid of death? You must know whether your plan is successful or not, you will be dead."

Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "Some family only cares about planning, whether they can live depends on you."

Chen Dong turned his head and looked at the dark pine forest with hope.

It was about to walk out of this black pine forest, but Yunping and the others still did not appear.

Fan Wencheng breathed a long sigh of relief.

Not far ahead, it is the checkpoint set up by the people of Jianzhou. When you walk there, you enter the plain area and you will reach the densely populated area of ​​Jianzhou.

At this moment, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from behind, and Fan Wencheng roared: "Enemy attack, be on guard!"

Before they could prepare, a group of people shattered the pine needles all over the ground like a gust of wind. Fan Wencheng glanced at the Zhenghuang Banner cavalry running in the front and shouted loudly: "Give up the way, give up the way, and make way."

The group of people hurriedly dismounted and pushed the wooden cage van to the side of the road before they fell to the ground. They saw Huang Taiji, surrounded by the cavalry of the Zhenghuang Banner, galloping past them. When they passed by the prison van, Huang Taiji's anxious eyes only stayed on Hong Chengchou for a moment, and did not stop the war horse. They ran towards Shengjing under the escort of their followers.

Huang Taiji led a lot of people, and the team took a stick of incense to finish it in a hurry.

This scene fell in Hong Chengchou's eyes. He smiled slightly and continued to look up at the blue sky.

Chen Dong looked at the arrogant Hong Chengchou with admiration.

Until now, Chen Dong finally confirmed that Hong Chengchou had no intention of surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. He used tricks to kill himself and completely cut off his back.

Dorgon was given such a sinister plan, and Dorgon would never let him continue to live. Similarly, if Huang Taiji knew the whole story, he would have no way to survive.

Things are clear, now, there is only one thing that is unknown - that is how Yun Ping and others who escaped to save them.

Seeing that his plan was implemented by Dorgon, Hong Chengchou settled down instead.

He seemed to be ready to welcome his destiny. Whether it was killed by Dorgon or rescued by Yun Ping and others, it was no longer important to him. He only felt that his lifelong ambition had been fully demonstrated at this moment.

Hong Chengchou was not in a hurry, Chen Dong was in a hurry. He believed that the killer sent by Dorgon should have already been on the way.

Yun Zhao had breakfast with his mother today. He knew that someone should have told his attitude.

Perhaps because of the reason why I live and move my energy and body, my mother has not become old over the years, and time has not left a very heavy mark on her body. It is difficult for people to believe that they are mother and son while sitting with Yun Zhao.

After drinking a bowl of millet porridge, Yun Zhao put down the bowl and looked at his mother.

Yun Niang sipped the rice porridge gently, and after a moment, she put down her bowl and said, "Don't blame Feng Ying, Yun Yang and the others. If I hadn't given them an order, they wouldn't have hidden you."

Yun Zhao said: "You shouldn't hide it from me either, this is a big taboo."

Yun Niang picked up her hair bun with her fingers and said, "You should be the emperor."

Yun Zhao nodded and said, "I should indeed be the emperor, but I shouldn't be at this time."

Yun Niang said, "I have asked people, and they all said that the time for you to be an emperor is ripe."

Yun Zhao sighed and said, "You should ask me."

"Isn't it good to be an emperor?"

"It's certainly good to be an emperor, but the timing is wrong."

Yun Niang looked at her son and whispered: "Your meeting is about to be held. I heard it is very unfavorable to you."

Yun Zhao said: "This is very beneficial to the people and also to the Yun family."

Yun Niang shook her head and said, "Wei Niang doesn't understand what you said, but you don't have to explain it to me. Do what you think. In the future, Wei Niang won't make any decisions."

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "When I get idle, my mother and son will return to Tangyu to live for a while. The child will tell you all the love."

Yun Niang smiled and said, "Okay, wait for my mother."

Watching his son leave, Yun Niang said to Qian Duoduo, who was serving by her side: "You should be more alert."

Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "He is my god."

Yun Niang said again: "Take good care of him, this child is very lonely now."

Qian Duoduo said: "No, my husband is so angry that he can't overcome the obstacles he can't overcome."

Yun Niang laughed and scolded: "You have confidence in him."

Qian Duoduo said: "I don't care whether he can be the emperor or not. Even if he is a beggar, I will follow him."

"This is a blessing for women..." Yun Niang sighed, not knowing what she remembered.

Yun Zhao returned to the long-lost study room, sat on the smooth chair, picked up the teapot and took a sip of tea. The tea water was just right, and the pen, ink, paper and ink were also in a convenient position. A grain-making document opened a page waiting for him to review it.

I looked up and found that the person standing beside me waiting for the order turned into Pei Zhong.

He used to be the No. 3 person in the Secretary-General. After Liu Cheng went to Luoyang to serve, he surpassed Hou Kun and became Yun Zhaoxin's secretary.

It is impossible to cross Hou Kun. As Lantian boundary markers continue to escape to the distance, the lack of officials in Lantian became more and more obvious. They sent two important figures from Liucheng and Hou Kun to work in other places at one time. This is the best choice Yun Zhao could make in a hurry.

Liucheng went to Luoyang, and Hou Kun was about to go to Hexi.

Duan Guoren has opened up the Hexi Corridor, Wuwei, Zhangye and Jiuquan have returned to the effective management of Lantian.

This land has been in anarchy for a long time. Yun Zhao learned from the secret spies that Duan Guoren used some shameful means.

However, in Duan Guoren's report, Hexi was safe and sound.

However, the Xu soldiers at the head of Jiayuguan City occupied a great amount of space in Duan Guoren's report. He even believed that these Xu soldiers should be rewarded highly... When the Ming Dynasty had long forgotten their existence, they still stood in Jiayuguan.

When Duan Guoren's army arrived at Jiayuguan, these soldiers actually naively believed that these troops from the pass were here to replace them, and a large group of people cried and looked deserted.

Facing the 211 confused soldiers led by a confused officer, Duan Guoren officially ordered them to change defenses as the general of Hexi.

Duan Guoren took over Jiayuguan and sent these soldiers who had been replaced from Jiayuguan to Guanzhong.

For these people, they can be used boldly, of course, after they are sent to the Phoenix Mountain Camp for training.

After taking over Jiayuguan, Duan Guoren stayed there. After he was about to rest for half a year, he led his army into the Western Regions.

This person had an indescribable feeling for the Western Regions. Yun Zhao even suspected that this guy was wandering back to Guanzhong from the Western Regions and was finally taken in by Yushan Academy.

Yun Zhao had never asked about this matter, and there was no need to ask about it. After all, it would not make much sense to ask a person's resume before he was eight years old. Yun Zhao only saw from the secret spy's Tang newspaper that something seemed wrong with Duan Guoren.

Han Lingshan naturally saw the documents of the Secret Spies Department. He did not mark the red in any suspicious places, so Yun Zhao did not mark the red in any way. The money was small, and Zhang Guozhu did not raise any questions.

Without major problems, Yun Zhao, Han Lingshan, Qian Shaoshao, and Zhang Guozhu were unwilling to doubt officials of Duan Guoren.

So, when the Jiayuguan guard met Yun Zhao with Duan Guoren's handwritten letter, he did not feel surprised.

When he met this border garrison named Wang Shan, Yun Zhao called Hanlingshan, Qian Shaoshao and Zhang Guozhu listened together.

Wang Shan’s eloquence was not good, and he was even a little flustered under the gaze of Yun Zhao and others, and his words were stuttering.

However, after listening to the story told by this guy, Yun Zhao, Qian Shaoshao, Han Lingshan and Zhang Guozhu were in a bad mood.

"County Zun, during the Chenghua period, the Ming people who left Jiayuguan and went to Hami to settle down in the Ming Dynasty. Later, there were no more than 130 people who returned, and the youngest one was Duan Ren...

Jiayuguan is in a difficult situation and there is no way to support this child. We entrusted the caravan to bring this child back to Guanzhong... When we saw him again, he had become a general."

When Wang Shan said this, his face was full of smiles and he was happy.

After Wang Shan left, Han Lingshan frowned and said, "When I first met Duan Guoren, he was as thin as a rabbit."

Qian Shaoshao said: "There is a sword wound on his body, and the ear on his left was cut off by a sharp weapon..."

Zhang Guozhu said: "He always likes to look at the West."

Yun Zhao said to Han Lingshan: "Send a caravan to search for the remnants of the Ming people in the Western Regions."

Han Lingshan said: "There are some records that they are not in a good situation."

"Then let's investigate and tell Duan Guoren that he was full of hatred but was able to reorganize his army in Jiayuguan for half a year, which means that he was not blinded by hatred. Just follow what he said in his letter and slowly plan it.

In the future, even if we want to open up the border, we cannot let the people take the lead. Remember, remember."

Han Lingshan smiled bitterly and said, "During the Chenghua period, the Ming army withdrew from the Hami Guard, which was recorded in history books. Why are there no records of the people who followed the army to the frontier?"

Qian Shaoshao said: "There is no time for history books, and there is no unnecessary place to record these small things!"

It is difficult for the superiors to fluctuate their emotions. Even if there is fluctuation, it will be a matter of moment and will soon calm down.

More than 200 people in Jiayuguan would rather herd sheep, settle and relied on their own, and guard the lonely city for twenty years when the court had forgotten them. This kind of thing was a tragedy in a great era.

Fortunately, there is a good result now...

Sometimes Yun Zhao insists that the way of heaven should be like this, allowing good people to have a happy outcome and bad people to have a bad ending.

This is a very simple concept, almost representing the ideas and hopes of most people.
