Mo Yiqing controlled Changlin Wei for more than a year, and it was not until after the second Northern Expedition that Wu Zheng allowed Song An to replace Mo Yiqing.

Although Song An had changed the contact secret language of the Changlin and the General Administration of Hangzhou Prefecture at that time, Changlin and the Changlin and the prefectures were established for a long time and were spread all over the Central Plains. It was almost difficult to change the contact secret language in a short time.

If someone else was replaced, no matter how difficult it was, it would have to be changed. But Mo Yiqing was the concubine of the King of Wu and the person next to him. In addition, at the critical moment of the Northern Expedition, Song An did not pay attention to this matter.

This left a gap for Mo Zhong’s layout.

Mo Zhinian naturally knew this, and his eyes were fixed on Mo Yiqing.

Mo Yiqing hesitated for a long time and finally took out a page of paper and handed it to Mo Zhinian.

....

"Your Majesty really wants to... marry me?"

Chen Zhiyuan bowed slightly and asked with his head down.

"Don't you?"

"I am naturally unlucky!" Chen Zhiyuan sighed softly, "But... I always feel like a dream, so unreal!"

Zhu Chenyu said, "If you don't believe it, I will issue an imperial edict tomorrow and report it to the world!"

Chen Zhiyuan slowly looked up and looked at Zhu Chenyu with a thousand tenderness in his eyes, "I believe... I believe whatever you say... You know, it is my biggest dream to marry you in this life!"

Zhu Chenyu replied lightly: "Let your father give you a divorce letter on your behalf."

Chen Zhiyuan fell silent and nodded, "It should be so, but... I still want to raise her. You know, the Qing court has been expelled from the pass, and she... can't go back!"

Zhu Chenyu's face was calm and she said, "It's up to you."

Chen Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh slightly. Is this like a woman who wants to get married, speaking to her partner?

"You...really want to meet Wu Zheng?"

"You have no jokes!"

"Then will you...beg him?"

Zhu Chenyu's face darkened and she had no answer.

Chen Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "I am not stubborn about this... It's really... If you really ask him, why would I betray him!"

Zhu Chenyu said coldly: "If you regret it... I don't force it, you can go back!"

"I don't mean that..." Chen Zhiyuan sighed, "No matter what you want me to do, I will do it... Even if I betray him, I think that even if you have nearly 400,000 troops in your hands, if you really want to meet him, the outcome will be uncertain... You know, he has a Songjiang Military Workshop, where thousands of firearms can be built every day, and in one month, you can equip tens of thousands of new troops... If you really want to fight him, the Songjiang Military Workshop will definitely be a place for both sides to compete!"

"I have thought about it...but I also know that since the shelling of the military workshop incident occurred before, at least five or six thousand people in the First Army were deployed around the military workshop." Zhu Chenyu sighed lightly, "It is said that it is a negotiation, but both sides know the importance of the negotiation chips...How to talk?!"

Chen Zhiyuan naturally knew that this was also the reason why he was asking if Zhu Chenyu would ask Wu Zheng privately. He knew that he could not do it, and except begging Wu Zheng to compromise, Chen Zhiyuan could not think of any other good solutions.

The situation has come to this point, and it is actually known that if Zhu Chenyu can continue to do so, it depends on whether Wu Zheng is willing to compromise.

Even if Wu Bochang is in the capital, this is just a delay. If you really want to fight, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken. This is not counting as Li Ding's helping Wu Zheng, and the probability is very high.

"Since the construction of the military workshop, no one can touch it... Even Song An and Chi Erhan were rejected by him." Chen Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "If you want to seize the military workshop, you can only use the strong one!"

Zhu Chenyu snorted: "Do you know the defense strength in the military workshop?"

Chen Zhiyuan is silent.

It’s not that I don’t want to answer, I really don’t know.

After returning to the north for more than two years, he still fought with Jiangbei. Except for his shallow impression of the military workshop when he went north, everything Chen Zhiyuan knew was heard from. But even so, Chen Zhiyuan knew that Wu Zheng would have something to rely on when he dared to enter Beijing alone, and the military workshop would be one of the important bargaining chips he relied on.

Zhu Chenyu said coldly: "As far as I know, in addition to the 5,000 or 6,000 troops of the First Army, hundreds of large and small artillery pieces were deployed, and dozens of fortresses were built... It can be said that the 50-mile military workshop was as strong as an iron barrel."

"Then I can only think of another way." Chen Zhiyuan sighed.

"I've thought of a solution."

Chen Zhiyuan looked up in confusion, "I listen with scruples!"

"Before the three armies move, food and grass will go first... The food and grass of the Northern Expedition Army have already bottomed out. The Financial Department under the General's Office is already in short supply. Besides, Mo Zynian has betrayed him and joined my command. I think in a short time, if the court does not provide food and grass for the Northern Expedition Army, the Northern Expedition Army will be short of food within ten days... And the same is true for military workshops. There are so many workshops, there are tens of thousands of craftsmen alone. I don't believe that after the food is out, they can still defend it!"

Chen Zhiyuan frowned slightly, "Is Your Majesty determined to start a war with him?"

This is right. At this time, Wu Zheng entered Beijing and Zhu Chenyu was willing to talk, provided that neither side was willing to tear out the face and the court was still supplying food and grass to the north. But if the food and grass were broken, it would be equivalent to tearing out the face and going to war.

Zhu Chenyu didn't comment and just said, "No matter what... this is also one of the important bargaining chips!"

Chen Zhiyuan agreed, "But Your Majesty should know his ability... Even if there is no food supply to the court, he may have a way to raise food!"

Zhu Chenyu shook her head, "I have secretly purchased a large number of commerce shares, and I have Mo Nian to help me. If he wants to raise food through the chamber of commerce, it may not be easy... Besides, he doesn't have that much cash, and he will compete with me!"

Chen Zhiyuan frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty should not believe it all... Merchants are not enough to believe it!"

Zhu Chenyu nodded, "What I mean is to ask you to monitor Mo Zhinian... I want to hand over the 12 million taels of cash in my hand to Mo Zhinian to continue purchasing shares in the Chamber of Commerce, but I am also worried that Mo Zhinian has a strange intention... I will feel relieved if you supervise from the side!"

Chen Zhiyuan bowed and said, "I received the order... If Your Majesty has nothing else, I will prepare now!"

Zhu Chenyu was silent for a while and said to Chen Zhiyuan: "If this matter is done well... I will give you the title of Prince!"

This is reasonable. Once Zhu Chenyu gets married, Chen Zhiyuan, as the emperor's husband, will be granted the title of prince, which is natural.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Chen Zhiyuan thought for a while after thanking him, "Why... I will accompany Your Majesty to see him tomorrow?"

Zhu Chenyu said coldly: "Do your own business...you don't have to worry about anything else!"

Chen Zhiyuan had no choice but to respond, "Yes."
