Chapter 401
Luzhu sat cross-legged on a river boat, looking at the dimly lit Jinling City in the distance and the Jiangyun Tower on Purple Mountain. The Jiangyun Tower was so gorgeous at night, and it must be a pleasant thing to live in it.
I heard that it is even more luxurious than the Ming Dynasty's palace.
While my mind was still thinking about how luxurious Jiangyun Tower was, I suddenly heard a few "plops" in my ears. It was the sound of heavy objects falling into the water, and a smile appeared on Luzhu's face. Those five-inch large-caliber
The mortars had completed their mission. Thirty rounds of shells perfectly delivered all the heirs of the Ming Dynasty to King Yan. Even their mothers were packed and sent there together.
It is estimated that these thirty rounds of artillery shells can still send Qian Qianyi to the guillotine. It was really wise for the commander-in-chief to sell these large-caliber mortars to the Jiangnan Forbidden Army against all opinions. Although he sold these large-caliber mortars
It cost a lot of money to steal the cannon, but Lu Zhu felt it was well worth the money.
The big explosion in the Linhu Palace really made Qian Qianyi know what it means to jump into the Yellow River and you can't clean it up. Now, as long as you are an individual, you will say that Qian Qianyi did it because he wanted to be the emperor.
The old Chen Fu's warning when he arrived was still ringing in his ears, no matter what, he must borrow the Jiangnan people's sword to kill Qian Qianyi. This guy manipulates the government and can use the plague incident to get the emperor to Jinling as a puppet, which shows his scheming.
deep.
In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to involve tens of millions of people, causing countless deaths in Guanzhong, Shanxi, and Hebei. In some places, it has reached the point where bones are frozen to death on the road and there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles. This shows how vicious his heart is!
The presence of such people in the world is not only a threat to the Liao army, but also a threat to the millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. This time, it is simply a dead end. Trapping Qian Qianyi to death in Jinling City will be a threat to this people.
The best way is to grow offal, meat,... bodies and destroy them. As long as he lives for a day, it is a crime against the people who died unjustly.
He bribed the Jiangnan Forbidden Army to kill the emperor, and bribed a few petty officers to steal the mortars. They took advantage of the dark moon and high winds to bombard the Linhu Palace!
The sound of the mortar was not loud when it was fired, and there was no light from the muzzle. During the day, experts were sent to accurately predict the shooting of Zhu Yuan, and five large-caliber shells were fired into the mourning hall. The effect was not generally good, and Zhu Youjian's sons all
Died in an explosion. After this explosion, Zhu Youjian officially declared death. Even his wife, Queen Zhou, was hit by more than a dozen pieces of shrapnel and died before dawn.
"Excuse me! The mortars were thrown into the river, and the Nanjing Forbidden Army officers who were bribed were also buried in the garden of Qian Qianyi's house. It's just over Qixia Mountain. The burial is very shallow and will probably be discovered tomorrow.
." In the darkness, a man reported to Lu Zhu in a low voice.
"Okay! After finishing your errands this time, you can follow me back to the capital. You don't have to live a life of fear in Jinling City."
"Thank you, girl! I hope you will support me in the future!"
"Mr. Chen will support you!" Luzhu waved his hand, and the man stepped back knowingly.
"Qian Qianyi, Qian Qianyi, let's see how long you can hold on this time." Looking at the extremely gorgeous Jiangyun Tower in the distance, Luzhu's eyes were full of brilliance. This time in Jinling City, it was really fun. In
Working under Lao Chen Fu is much more profitable than working under Hou Jin.
"I really didn't do it." Qian Qianyi has forgotten how many times he has said this these days. He feels that his defense is weak and pale. Now that he did not kill the emperor, who will believe it!
Yang Ying also shook her head helplessly. She was tired of listening to Qian Qianyi's explanation. But everyone in the world didn't believe it. It was useless for a female classmate to believe it. These days, she visited the mansions of various officials in Jinling City.
Relying on my daily friendship, I wanted to persuade some officials.
But the encounter made him know what is the warmth and coldness of human relationships. People who are usually as close as sisters can treat you coldly. The acquaintance with a smile like a flower has now turned into a vicious woman who speaks evil words. A talented woman and a first assistant such as
As a wife, she will become the center of attention wherever she goes. Now whenever she attends social events, she will also become the center of attention. She will be the center of ridicule and abuse. The faces of those who watch and laugh are the same face as those who flatter her. It's just that.
However, times have changed, and Qian Qianyi has become a street rat.
"It doesn't matter what you did, sir. What matters is how to avoid this disaster. Jiangnan can't stay any longer, so we can only find a way to escape from Jinling. Otherwise, our safety will be a problem." Yang Ying sighed.
, the eyebrows are full of worry.
Qian Qianyi knew the current situation, and the danger was approaching step by step. The big explosion in the palace the night before yesterday pushed the matter to the crater. Now not only the people of Jinling, but also the Nanjing Forbidden Army are on the verge of erupting.
Ma Shiying, Zhou Yanru, and Wen Tiren have been meeting secretly for days. Most importantly, Shi Kefa's attitude is also very suspicious. Years of political experience tell Qian Qianyi that he has been isolated. The pace of death is approaching step by step, killing the royal family.
One crime could make his death uglier than that of a pig. Thinking of the pain of cutting up a living person, Qian Qianyi wanted to end his life with a glass of poisonous wine.
But he was reluctant to give up, leaving the green hills without worrying about having no firewood. As long as he lives, with his talent and learning as a famous official in the south of the Yangtze River, there may be a chance to make a comeback. Although the chance is slim, Qian Qianyi plans to be a determined person.
Abandon and don't give up.
"This doesn't mean we can just leave. Where can we go? How will we live after we leave? How will we deal with such a large family and property in Jiangnan? How will we arrange the journey, and who will protect us? How will these problems be solved?"
Qian Qianyi walked impatiently in the hall of Jiangyun Building, his feet making "dong" and "dong" sounds on the bright lacquered floor.
"You are almost dead, why do you need so much property? Master, do you think that as long as you don't run away, you can keep the Qian family's current property?" Yang Ying looked at her husband helplessly. Even at the most important time, Qian's family was
Qian Yi has never lost his composure like this before. This shows that he is completely at a loss. This is the most dangerous emotion at this time. I believe that in just one or two days, the captured soldiers will come here.
Upstairs in Jiangyun. By then, it will be too late to say anything. My life will be gone, and this huge property in Jiangnan will be of no use.
"Uh...!" Qian Qianyi was speechless.
"What I mean is, whether we go to Guanzhong to defect to Huang Taiji, or go to the capital to defect to Li Xiao. This is a way. I think someone will come to arrest us in a day or two. If we want to leave then, it will be a disaster.
It’s even harder than reaching the sky.”
"You must not go to Li Xiao's place." Qian Qianyi shook his head decisively. Even if Yang Ying is a talented woman, she has confirmed the ancient saying that a woman's hair is long but her knowledge is short. He, Qian Qianyi, can be said to be Li Xiao's biggest enemy. In the past two years,
He blocked so many military supplies allocated to Li Xiao by the Ministry of Household Affairs. How many stumbling blocks he caused to Li Xiao, both overtly and covertly!
At this time, he defected to Li Xiao. It is estimated that he was steamed and placed on the altar, and it was more likely that he would become an offering for Li Xiao to pay homage to Zhu Youjian.
"Then go and defect to Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji has just occupied Guanzhong. We need the advice of a respected person like you, sir. I think Huang Taiji will treat me well." Yang Ying didn't hear Qian Qianyi's objection to defecting to Huang Taiji, and his heart immediately
Great joy.
"To defect to Huang Taiji is an insult to our ancestors. I, Qian Qianyi, am also a disciple of Confucianism. How could I do such a thing?" Qian Qianyi was a little angry.
"It won't work this way, that won't work either. Do you mean to wait for death in Jinling City? How about you and I, husband and wife, sail out of the Yangtze River estuary in a small boat. I heard that there is an island full of peach blossoms in the East China Sea. In the spring,
The peach blossoms are blooming very beautifully. The local fishermen call it Peach Blossom Island. Why don’t we go to that Peach Blossom Island to live in seclusion. Master, you can just sit and learn while I, by your side, burn incense and play the harp, wouldn’t it be nice!”
