Chapter 33 Running or Adventure?

Emperor Chongzhen's words made 99% of the people in the hall confused. What was the origin of this Fucheng Bo? Even the royal relatives did not need to be so proud, let alone just a fucking relative! In fact, many of the nobles had met Zhou Shixiong, when Emperor Tianqi passed the throne. The reason why they couldn't recognize it was because the distance between the meeting was a bit far, and everyone's attention was focused on Emperor Tianqi and Chongzhen. They only had a vague impression of Zhou Shixiong, and of course they could not remember it after a long time.

Zhou Shixiong cursed Emperor Chongzhen for countless times in his heart that he had no birds for giving birth to a son. Why did he have to push me into the fire pit? Isn’t this harmful? Zhou Shixiong now only hopes that those civil officials will show their character, resolutely resist Emperor Chongzhen’s one-man style, and rescue himself from the fire pit.

Zhang Weixian was definitely kind. Liangxiang is located in the southwest of the capital, connected to Fangshan in the west and Lugou Bridge in the north. It is a strategic location where you can attack and retreat and defend. The 5,000 Shanxi soldiers brought by Geng Ruqi and Zhang Honggong are elite border troops, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to ordinary military guards. If Zhou Shixiong went here to supervise the army, he would easily be able to achieve military achievements. Zhang Weixian could think of this, others would also think of it.

Zhang Qingzhen came out to report, "Long live, although General Xu Shilu of General Xuanda was defeated by Sanhe, it is not a crime of war. Moreover, Xuanda's three thousand soldiers still have the power to fight. If Fucheng Bo is sent to the army, I believe he will be able to avenge his previous shame and make achievements." For a time, Zhou Shixiong became a popular commodity, and everyone wanted to take a bite. Zhang Qingzhen's recommendation was only a little far from good intentions. Even though he knew that Xuan Dabing had just been defeated, he wanted to be superior to the army. If there was a slight mistake, dying in the chaos was the best result.

Zhou Shixiong only knew that Sanhe was robbed, but now he realized that the famous Governor Xuanda lost the battle.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and waved his hand, stopping Zhang Weixian and Zhang Qingzhen who were preparing for a civil war. "The two families need no more words. I have a firm opinion. Zhou's army of beloved Zhou went to Xianghe and supervised the Guanning Army." Now, Emperor Chongzhen also jumped out and mixed up, and he went to fight against Yuan Chonghuan. No one of the civil and military officials was interested in paying attention to him anymore. Yuan Chonghuan claimed that he liked to kill the generals and ruled the army. Zhou Shixiong would definitely not have good results in the past, and he would have to peel off even if he didn't die. Emperor Chongzhen sent him there, which shows that this person was not only not the confidant of Emperor Chongzhen, but also someone that Emperor Chongzhen hated very much.

Zhou Shixiong had just surrendered to the majesty of the court, and he cursed himself while judging his mother while judging whether to go to Xuanda or Liangxiang. Now there is no need to think about it. He decided to escape after leaving the palace and run as far as possible. Whether Yuan Chonghuan would be skinned and cramped Zhou Shixiong didn't know, but Zu Dashou Wang Chengyin and Wu Xiangke in the Guanning Army were both alive. Isn't it seeking death to offend them by himself?! As for whether Emperor Chongzhen would convict him of a deserter, Zhou Shixiong no longer cared. Living was the king.

Next, Zhou Shixiong didn't even feel at the sight of the onlooker. He began to think about how to leave Beijing as the most appropriate one. He had the imperial envoy's flag, so it was not a problem to ask the city gate to open. The question was how to deal with the team of Jinyiwei who protected him? It seemed that it was not that easy to run away, and he had to plan carefully.

After a while, Zhou Shixiong saw that the bosses had discussed the matter of the governor of the army and went out to report. "Emperor, since I have joined the emperor's personal army, I will hand over the inspection responsibilities. Please take back the flag." Zhou Shixiong wanted to take off his responsibilities, of course, there was no Jinyiwei following him, so it would be much more convenient to run away.

"Zhou Aiqing, let's talk about this later, and I will return to work for the time being." Emperor Chongzhen did not take back the imperial envoy's flag. He seemed to have something to say to him, so Zhou Shixiong had to wait patiently for the court meeting to end.

An hour later, Zhou Shixiong came to the imperial study room, and Emperor Chongzhen was waiting for him. "Zhou Aiqing, I ordered you to go to Xianghe to supervise the army. I am not at ease with this matter, so I can only let you do it."

"Your Majesty, I wonder what the dispatch was?" There was nothing good about being involved with Guan Ning Army. Even if Emperor Chongzhen said that Hualai Zhou Shixiong was not easy to go. He just wanted to deal with Emperor Chongzhen and let him leave quickly.

"Go and help me investigate something." Emperor Chongzhen took out a letter and handed it to Zhou Shixiong. Zhou Shixiong opened it and found that it was a secret copy written by Xie Shangzheng, a party member of Yuan Chonghuan. There were two things mentioned in it. One was to open the market and sell grain to the Mongolians. In fact, 80% of the food was gone to the Later Jin Dynasty. Yuan Chonghuan knew that he still insisted on the market and brought the secrets of the merchants who came to report the news.

Execution. The name and origin of the murdered merchant were attached, as well as the name of the soldier who participated in the interrogation of the merchant at that time.

The second thing was a bit horrifying. Xie Shangzheng said that when Amin attacked North Korea in the Dingmao year, Yuan Chonghuan was obscene and sent someone to discuss peace with Jiannu. Mao Wenlong was ordered to fight in Korea, and Yuan Chonghuan only sent naval troops to assist. Moreover, most of the naval troops were stationed on Juehua Island, and only one battalion of naval troops arrived at Pi Island to assist the war. Yuan Chonghuan, who was supposed to be ordered to attack Shenyang to reduce pressure on North Korea, only sent Zhao Rujiao, Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang around the Liaohe River. Most of the troops were transferred to Jinzhou, Daling Fort and other cities. They did not reply to Mao Wenlong's urgent reports on reinforcements, and wrote a memorial saying that Mao Wenlong falsely reported military information.

There is no conclusion after so long after the Dingmao Battle. If the matter of private peace talks was true, then it can be explained why Yuan Chonghuan had such a reaction at that time. As a side general, he actually dared to negotiate peace talks with the enemy in private. Yuan Chonghuan is more courageous than others!

After reading the letter, Zhou Shixiong looked up and asked, "Your Majesty Yuan has never told you about the private dispute?" It is not an exaggeration to have such suspicion. He privately asked his confidant to do something shameful. Once exposed, the leader immediately pushed him clean and let his subordinates take the blame. Zhou Shixiong has seen many such things!

Emperor Chongzhen was stunned by Zhou Shixiong's doubts. He didn't expect that someone would doubt him, and even asked him in person. This was too rude! "Aiqing Zhou, how dare you doubt me!" Emperor Chongzhen was angry!

"Emperor, what I think is, if the emperor hadn't supported General Yuan, what would be the benefit of doing this?" Zhou Shixiong had no intention of apologizing at all. He just found a topic to pull away Emperor Chongzhen's attention, purely bullying Emperor Chongzhen's children ignorant!

"Zhou Aiqing, do you suspect someone falsely accused Yuan Chonghuan?" Emperor Chongzhen was very obedient and immediately stopped politely with Zhou Shixiong, and began to think carefully.

"Your Majesty, that's what I think. Anyone does things for the sake of profit, no matter whether this interest is wealth, power or fame. If Master Yuan does such a crazy thing and gain nothing, is he crazy or stupid?" Zhou Shixiong firmly believes in the theory of human nature as evil, because he had never seen good in his previous life and had never seen it since he was a child. He still remembers that after Lei Feng became Lei Feng hero, someone joked, 'My moral standards are all fake, and morality may also be fake.'

"It's bustling, come for profit and go for profit. Zhou Aiqing said this." Emperor Chongzhen quickly found a famous saying among the ancients and simplified the long and water-filling sentence of Zhou Shixiong.

"This is what the emperor is erudite. People cannot do meaningless things, especially a smart person. Master Yuan must be a smart person. How could he do things that harm oneself and benefit others?" Zhou Shixiong seemed to be asking Emperor Chongzhen, and he seemed to be asking himself. He was a little dizzy and could not understand the key points.

"The things mentioned in Xie Shangzheng's secret letter are all evidence, and Yuan Chonghuan once wrote to Qian Longxi to talk about this matter. The letter and Qian Longxi's testimony are in my hands. It cannot be a false accusation." Emperor Chongzhen first gave evidence to rule out the possibility of Xie Shangzheng's false accusation, and Zhou Shixiong was even more confused. If Xie Shangzheng had not wanted to overthrow Yuan Chonghuan, it would mean that Yuan Chonghuan had really done these things.

"Your Majesty, you asked me to go to Xianghe to find out the matter?" Zhou Shixiong couldn't understand the reason for Yuan Chonghuan to do this, but he wanted to understand the purpose of Emperor Chongzhen sending him to Xianghe.

"That's right, I hope that Zhou Aiqing will find out this matter. If it is not done, just bring Xie Shangzheng back." It seems that Emperor Chongzhen did not expect Zhou Shixiong to transform into Zero and Qi and easily solve the case. He just gave Xie Shangzheng some cover and escorted him back to Beijing.

Zhou Shixiong led the order to leave the imperial study room, thinking while walking, whether to escape or take a trip to Xianghe? This question is very problematic!

"Master Zhou, Zuo Liangyu has met him." When he returned to the inn, the Jinyiwei had indeed left, leaving only five personal soldiers and Zuo Liangyu.

"Master Zuo, what do you mean?" As soon as we met, Zuo Liangyu knelt on one knee and saluted Zhou Shixiong. Zhou Shixiong quickly pulled him up and asked.

"Biaoxia was ordered to listen to the master, and there was also Lord Liu. Biaoxia called him over." Zuo Liangyu seemed very happy, and said a few words and ran out to find someone Liu.

"Sir, please come and report to Zhenghua. Please check the customs defense." Zuo Liangyu did not come back and Fang Zhenghua came. He took out a letter of letter of appointment to be handed over to Zhou Shixiong. He was the supervisor of this army commander of the governor. After a while, Zhou Shixiong knew which one was Lord Liu, and it turned out to be Liu Zeqing.

"Biaoxia Liu Zeqing greets you." Liu Zeqing bowed to the ground like Zuo Liangyu, and Zhou Shixiong waved his hand to let him get up. "Hezhou, what's there to be happy about? Let's talk about it." Since the two of them called the Biaoxia, that means that they are now Zhou Shixiong's subordinates. Zhou Shixiong politely called Liu Zeqing's prose to show closeness.

"Sir, please see." Zuo Liangyu took out a letter of appointment to Zhou Shixiong, and Liu Zeqing also had one. Zhou Shixiong took it and looked at it, with a smile on his face. Chongzhen, a little fat man, is quite good at being a human being, and takes the initiative to help me solve problems. But is it worth it to take risks for a man?!

ps: Brother, sit on the head of the bed, sister, I feel very uncomfortable, why not do it together!
