Chapter 1527 Intercepting Sun Chengzong
Sun Chengzong was from Baoding. He left the city gate and headed south. Novel.
Zhu Xu was sitting in the carriage, chatting with Sun Chengzong, and the others were with her.
But without talking about those heavy things, Zhu Xu said, "Master Sun, after you go back, you should take a rest. If you have any questions, write me a letter..."
Sun Chengzong smiled and nodded, his eyes fell on the two princes, and said, "Emperor, the prince cannot stay outside for a long time. How about the eldest prince staying in the minister for more days?"
Zhu Xu was stunned and looked at Xiao Ciye sitting opposite him.
The little guy's expression was also stunned, a little confused.
Sun Chuanting, Fu Changzong and others were thinking, looked at Sun Chengzong and their eyes fell on the two princes.
The inheritance of the throne of the Ming Dynasty has always been a problem, especially the problem of the eldest son and the crown prince. Some people who are interested are still wandering and making choices, but the undercurrent is still surging.
Zhu Xu didn't think so much, and looked at Xiao Ciye and said, "Ye'er, the old man wants to keep you in Baoding for some days. Do you want to go?"
Zhu Ciye was a little fat, moved for a moment, his face was chubby and expressionless. He looked at Zhu Xu, then looked at Sun Chengzong, and after a while, he slowly said, "Okay."
Sun Chengzong smiled and said, "There are no good things in the old minister's family, but Baoding also has some characteristics. Your Highness will definitely be worth the trip when he arrives there."
The little guy saluted a little clumsyly and didn't say anything.
Zhu Xu didn't care about this matter, so he took out a king's order arrow from his arms and handed it to Sun Chengzong, saying, "If you have any trouble on the road, you can use it."
Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Xu's expression and took it over and nodded slightly.
Under the natural disaster, the people's sentiment was surging. Even if they could barely control it, some chaos had never been heard. Henan is one of the most serious chaos, and bandits have never disappeared.
Sun Chuanting interrupted at this time and said, "Your Majesty, I will order the Security Department to protect each other to ensure that there is no in case. I also ask the guards to stay in Baoding for a period of time."
Zhu Xu suddenly looked up and said, "The Chief Supervisor is a good reminder. Master Sun's guards are probably not enough, so the guards stay for two months."
Sun Chengzong is low-key in his behavior, but many people have offended him. If some people want to take revenge, they may not be able to succeed.
Sun Chengzong said, "There is no need to be so high-profile. My guards and servants should be fine."
Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "That's all."
Sun Chengzong did not argue, his eyes fell on Sun Chuanting and Fu Changzong's faces, and he did not say much.
The court leaders have a consensus on the arrangements of the cabinet, but there are also many uneasiness and concerns.
For example, Fu Changzong, a relative of the foreign country, is only in his early fifties. Will he go further and become the chief minister? If he becomes the chief minister, will he open a terrible hole for the relative of the foreign country?
Zhu Xu knew Sun Chengzong's gaze well, but he didn't say much, saying, "Sir Sun, do you have anything else to explain to me?"
Sun Chengzong thought for a while and said, "There is nothing else, the emperor thinks more profound than the minister."
Zhu Xu let go of this topic and said, "Sun Ling has been very good at training over the years. I plan to put him in the Military Information Office. Mr. Sun has no objection, right?"
Sun Ling is the third son of Sun Chengzong. He was in the Jinyiwei in his early years. In recent years, he also ran around and did a lot of things with Sun Chengzong.
Sun Chengzong was determined to object, and was silent for a moment, saying, "I will thank the emperor on behalf of the dog son."
Zhu Xu then nodded with a smile. The topic no longer involved these things, but turned to the ups and downs of the years, sighing about the past and imagining the future.
Not long after, we arrived at Shili Pavilion outside the city, and a group of people came out of the carriage and bid farewell to Sun Chengzong.
The most complicated mood was Zhu Xu. He looked at Sun Chengzong and said thousands of words, "Master Sun, take care of him."
Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Xu, laughed loudly, raised his hand and said, "I will leave!"
Zhu Xu didn't say anything, and watched Sun Chengzong get up, get on the carriage, and speeding away on the official road under the escort of a group of imperial guards.
Zhu Xu, Sun Chuanting, Fu Changzong, Qin Liangyu, Cao Wenzhao and others watched together, each with his expression, probably his feelings were the same.
Zhu Xu stood outside the pavilion and looked at it for a long time, and had countless thoughts in his mind.
Sun Chengzong was a famous person in the Ming Dynasty, but he was not a famous person, nor a general with outstanding military achievements, nor a loyal minister praised by the country.
He is very low-key, and his reputation is quite "stubborn".
The so-called warriors have no great achievements, and this is probably the case.
Zhu Xu can't give anything without seeking fame or profit. At this moment, Zhu Xu can't think of anything except for his complicated thoughts.
After a while, Fu Changzong stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, you're away."
Zhu Xu was shocked, woke up and looked at the vast official Tao and said no.
Sun Chuanting and others were also relieved when they looked at Zhu Xu's expression. Why should they worry about their affairs after they had such a monarch?
After a while, Zhu Xu turned around and said, "Let's go back."
Everyone turned around with Zhu Xu and got on the carriage and returned to the city.
In the carriage heading south, there were three little guys in front of Sun Chengzong, the crown prince Zhu Ci, the eldest son Zhu Ciye, and the second son Zhu Cixuan.
Zhu Cixuan rushed over from the Royal Military Academy and brought twenty Boy Scouts.
This time, the team leader escorted Sun Chengzong back to his hometown, led by the three princes.
Zhu Cixuan was wearing black armor and looked at Sun Chengzong with confidence and said, "Don't worry, with this prince here, I will ensure that you can arrive in the village safely. No slut can hurt you!"
Sun Chengzong looked at the second prince's enthusiasm and smiled, saying, "The old minister's life will be handed over to the second prince."
Zhu Cixuan was even more excited and clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, sir!"
After saying that, he got out of the carriage, jumped onto his horse, rode the horse, and brought twenty boy scouts to the front of the army.
The leader is Su Yinyin. She gave birth to a child two years ago, but now she is still responsible for guarding the inner court. This time she is responsible for escorting Sun Chengzong back to her hometown.
Su Yinyin looked at the excited second prince, with a motherly smile on her face. She said nothing, waved her hand, and the army quietly protected the group of ten-year-old boy scouts in the middle.
Zhu Cixuan only thought it was the adjustment of the military formation. He rode a horse in front and walked in the wind. His mood was as strong as a tide and he couldn't help but want to whistle.
Inside the carriage, Zhu Ciye was a dull gourd, shaking and talking. Zhu Ci was still young, lying by the window, looking at the scenery passing by outside with wide eyes, and exclaiming from time to time.
Sun Chengzong has been sitting in the Grand Marshal's Mansion over the years, watching the government and the government and the Qianqing Palace.
He naturally also paid great attention to the inheritance of the throne, and he also observed the eldest son and the crown prince for a long time.
Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Ciye, who looked a little stupid, with a deep smile.
The little guy looked at Sun Chengzong's expression and blinked. He took out a book from his arms with even more stunned expression, spread it on his legs, and looked quietly with his head down.
Sun Chengzong seemed to have a look of praise on his face, and he smiled and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
The carriage followed the official road and headed north to Zhili to Henan. There were escorts from the imperial guards, officials from all over the country received edicts, and spontaneous gentry were also welcomed. Sun Chengzong couldn't help but keep a low profile all the way.
The news of Sun Chengzong's resignation has spread all over the world for a long time, and some people with heart will naturally not miss this opportunity.
Some want to take this opportunity to shine their faces and show their heads; some are sincerely welcomed and prepared a lot; some want to see if Sun Chengzong really retired; some people have ulterior motives and follow them all the way.
Baoding Prefecture is in a remote village.
A big man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist rushed into a room and said in a urn: "Master, Sun Chengzong is coming soon."
Inside the room, a tall middle-aged man with a mask on his right eye, and a ferocious expression suddenly looked up and said, "Do you find out how many of them are?"
This person is Li Hongji and Li Zicheng who was shot blinded by Su Yinyin in Shaanxi and escaped!
The big man also said with hatred, "Brothers, I found out that there are 300 imperial guards and some guards, with a total of about 500 people. At his speed, he will arrive in three days."
Li Zicheng's left eyelid twitched violently, with a look of hatred on his face, and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let brothers be prepared, we have revenge, and it's time to revenge if we have revenge!"
The man responded buzzingly and stepped out on the floor heavily.
They were all the "victims" of Sun Chengzong's reform and suppression of bandits. Over the years, they have gathered hundreds of people and have been quietly hiding in this village.
Li Zicheng watched the big man leave, his expression became more and more ferocious, and he growled, "Su Yinyin, when I catch you, I will definitely let you know how powerful I am!"
A plump woman in the room behind Li Zicheng stood by the door. Listening to Li Zicheng's words, she frowned and looked worried.
Xing family, Li Zicheng's concubine.
That night, Li Zicheng called a meeting in the village, and there were nearly six or seven hundred people!
They were the "victims" of Sun Chengzong's military reform and the "victims" of the imperial reform. In short, they were all bandits and plundering for a living. They were strongly wanted by the court and were not allowed to hide here, survive, and obey Li Zicheng.
During the meeting, Li Zicheng quietly left the door and met a man in the dark.
"Yingwu, what do you think you should do?" In a room, Xing grabbed the man's clothes and said anxiously.
The man was tall and handsome, and he frowned and said repeatedly: "Don't say whether he won't win, even if he won, we will be exposed. I'm afraid there will be no place to hide in the future. This is a dead end..."
Gao Jie, a general recruited by Li Zicheng, is known as the Flying Mountain Harrier.
Xing looked at Gao Jie, bit his lip, and said, "I feel uneasy recently. I don't know if he discovered something. Yingwu, I'm afraid..."
Gao Jie looked at Xing's expression, looked ruthless, and gritted his teeth and said, "We have to die before and after, and we only have one way to go!"
Xing was shocked and had already guessed, and still shouted in a low voice: "What are you going to do?"
Gao Jie gritted his teeth and said, "Surrendering to the government army can at least save his life!"
Xing's face changed, and he was an idea-making person nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go wherever you go!"
When Gao Jie saw Xing agreeing, he was very moved and his mind was swiftly turned, saying, "Li Zicheng wants to intercept Sun Chengzong, which is a way to die. I happened to use him as a letter of fame, and maybe he can get a job!"
Xing and Li Zicheng had no feelings for each other, and he said with a resentment after hearing this: "Okay, but how can we go out? The people guarding the village are all Li Zicheng's people."
Gao Jie thought about it, leaned close to her ear and whispered: "He will definitely drink a serious sin tonight. You secretly steal a piece of his token. You disguise yourself. I will take you and a few brothers to steal out of the village."
When Xing heard this, he said, "Okay, go back quickly, so that he won't find it."
Gao Jie nodded and the two left quickly.
On the other hand, Li Zicheng gave a cup of tea and talked to some people, aroused the hatred in their hearts, and prepared to intercept Sun Chengzong in three days.
