Chapter 21

Although it is not known who moved the body, one thing is certain, at least for now, the development of the matter is beneficial to him, but now is not the time to pursue this matter.

Although he was hiding something in his heart, Zhu Guoqiang, who had become "auspicious" for no reason, still had to put aside the matter for the time being. He sat in the study and looked at the Shandong governor in front of him, waiting for his explanation.

"Why are you doing this!"

It was Song Xuezhu who shouted "auspiciousness from heaven" when he was still alive before, and then... he became "auspiciousness".

"It is to tell the world that the Crown Prince is the auspicious sign of my Ming Dynasty."

"oh?"

Staring at Song Xuezhu coldly, what did he mean by saying that?

"Governor Song is indeed worthy of being a loyal minister of my Ming Dynasty!"

mortal!

My "Vulcan" persona was suddenly "broken" by someone named Song.

Hearing the sarcasm in His Highness's mouth, Song Xuezhu quickly bowed his head and explained.

"Your Majesty, whether it is "auspicious" or "God of Fire", there is no difference in the eyes of ordinary people. The only difference is that I will never act rashly against "auspicious", Your Majesty! As for other things,

…”

Lowering his voice, Song Xuezhu said.

"As long as the common people are sure that the prince is the reincarnation of the God of Fire, then the prince must be the god of fire. As for whether this "auspicious sign" is the god of fire appearing or descending to earth, everyone has their own opinion, but in the imperial court

, as far as this is concerned, it is just a coincidence, and as for the auspiciousness of being invulnerable to fire, it is just a vulgar statement made by a fool."

After staring at Song Xuezhu and sizing him up for a while, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.

"Governor Song, do you know what will happen if these words you say are spread?"

"What will happen?"

Shaking his head, Song Xuezhu said.

"I don't care what the outcome is. I only know that there are Eastern captives who have invaded thousands of miles away, and there are rogue bandits who are causing chaos in the Central Plains. There are droughts, floods, and plagues all over the place. The situation in the world is in danger. Fortunately, His Highness turned the tide this time and held on.

Jinan, otherwise I'm afraid..."

Pursing his lips, Song Xuezhu stared at the prince in front of him and said.

"I have to think about the future of the Ming Dynasty! What if it happens in the future..."

Before Song Xuezhu could express his thoughts, Zhu Guoqiang stopped him and said.

"Governor Song, don't mention this again!"

After his words were interrupted, Song Xuezhu realized what would happen if these words were spread. Thinking of the eunuchs and maids of the palace outside the house, a burst of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

Seeing that Song Xuezhu's face turned pale with fright, Zhu Guoqiang gave instructions calmly.

"Governor Song, I know what you are thinking. Don't mention this again. The most important thing now is to consolidate the city's defense. After all, the Qing army suffered such a big loss. Even Dabeile Yuetuan died in Jinan.

Dorgon will definitely take revenge, so the days ahead will not be easy!"

The prince's instructions made Song Xue and Zhu Lian nod in agreement.

"What the prince said is true, I will do it now..."

After Song Xuezhu left, Zhu Guoqiang let out a long sigh.

Jinan City has been defended for the time being, but what happens next?

Thousands of Qing troops were burned to death with a fire, and the Qing army blew up the camp. Thousands of people hacked each other, killing and injuring nearly 10,000 people. Even the leading general Yue Tuo was burned to death in the camp by himself.

, such a result was far beyond his expectation, but the effect was significant. The Qing army would definitely retaliate. After all, they had killed so many people and suffered such a big loss. How could he, Dorgon, just give up.

What if Dorgon leads his 100,000 troops to kill us? By then, will Jinan City be able to defend it?

However, it seems that the number of troops led by Dorgon was not that large, only fifty or sixty thousand at most, excluding their losses in Jinan.

"There are at most 50,000 troops..."

But 50,000 people are also the elites of the Eight Banners who have experienced hundreds of battles!

Dorgon, that is a famous general!

Fifty thousand troops!

Those are the Eight Banners elites who can make the Ming army dare not leave the city to fight!

"Oh, this is not easy to handle!"

Just when Zhu Guoqiang was worriedly thinking about what to do next, there was a report from an internal official over there.

"Master, is Miss Li here?"

"Who is Miss Li?"

When the subconscious words blurted out, Zhu Guoqiang's heart tightened. This was too obvious.

Fortunately, the little eunuch didn't notice his gaffe, but answered his doubts in detail.

"Miss Li is Li Jingyun. Miss Li is His Highness's crown prince's concubine. Before the siege of Donglu, the messenger just sent them to Jinan. Later, Donglu came, and the prince's marriage was delayed. Previously, we had

The prince will go up to the city wall together, oh, by the way, didn’t you ask her to summon all the maids in the palace to help defend the city?”

The Crown Princess who has never passed the test... is that Miss Li?

Oh, what!

With his eyes widened, Zhu Guoqiang realized the seriousness of the problem - he, no, he actually had a wife, even if she was not married.

It's her!

That woman is his wife?

When I was stunned, I heard a delicate voice enter my ears.

"I have met His Highness!"

"Jingyun, you are too polite..."

Seeing her bending her knees in greeting, Zhu Guoqiang subconsciously stretched out his hand to support her. His fingers touched her arms, and he felt the softness through the sleeves. Looking at her beautiful face, a strange feeling flashed in his heart.

"I would like to thank Your Highness."

When she raised her head, Li Jingyun saw the crown prince's eyes staring straight at her, her cheeks turned red instantly, and her eyes were full of embarrassment.

oops!

Could it be that this is the welfare of time travellers? If you just give one to a girl, it still won’t pass!

This is good...I like it!

A faint fragrance hit his face as he breathed, which made Zhu Guoqiang's heart tremble, and he looked carefully at the woman in front of him.

From time travel to now, I haven't seen her appearance clearly, but I just remember her beauty. Now that I see it, I can't help but secretly praise her in my heart: Not only is she beautiful, but she is also dignified, and she behaves well, especially her skin, which is as white as flawless.

Bai Yu. Also, she has a good figure. She must be 170cm tall. Not bad. Although she doesn’t have long legs, she is pretty good. Especially...

Just when Zhu Guoqiang's eyes wandered up and down involuntarily, and his thoughts began to wander, there was suddenly a faint roar in the distance, which made him come back to his senses immediately, let go of her arms with both hands, and took three steps together.

He ran out, looked in the direction of the sound, and asked urgently.

"What's wrong?"

He saw a burst of earthy yellow smoke rising from the south of the city, and the smoke that covered the sky made his heart tighten again.
