Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 81 Sugar-coated Cannonballs
In a blink of an eye, Zhu Yixi sat in the yamen of the prefect of Hanzhong.

It is indeed convenient to seize the city carefully.

The prefect Jiang Quan and the commander Qin Deshou laughed together, their faces full of respect, completely opposite to the contempt just now.

With a smile in the corner of his eyes, he looked at the two and couldn't help saying: "Why, go on, I want to see how arrogant you are."

"As the magistrate, how can I bow my head?"

Jiang Quan frowned, seeming to remember the word backbone, and said, "If you hadn't had the governor's order to suppress the bandits, I would never have given in."

As he said that, he cupped his hands, with a look of reluctance, barely retaining his magistrate demeanor.

When Zhao Shu saw it, he quickly covered his face with a feather fan, fearing that his smile would be discovered.

Zhu Yixi almost laughed too, he was really stubborn, his mind was very stubborn, and his body was very honest.

"Prefect Jiang, please prepare [-] sets of winter clothes, and bring out [-] shi of grain by the way."

"no!"

"Not so much—"

Jiang Quan raised his head, his eyes were full of stubbornness, he seemed to see anger when he met Zhu Yixi's gaze, he said without fear:
"There are only five thousand sets of silver in the treasury, and only six thousand shi of grain."

"Okay, then five thousand sets."

Zhu Yixi laughed, this is the style of a literati, interesting.

"For the rest, don't bother Mr. Zhifu."

"Hmph!" Jiang Quan waved his hand and said, "In that case, I will go to prepare and leave."

As he said that, he swaggered away, and everyone was a bit messy:

Is this cooperation, or not?

This operation stunned Qin Deshou, he raised his chest, and wanted to learn it.

"Ok?"

A soft hum next to his ear made his heart tremble immediately, he bent down quickly, and said with a smile:

"Zhu Guerzilla, what's your order? I'll do it right away."

"Commander Qin, I'm here to suppress thieves, and also to defend against intruders, so your troops will belong to our department.

"You don't mind?"

Zhu Yixi asked with interest.

"No, no!" Qin Deshou, his head was shaking like a rattle, his fat head was big, his flesh was billowing, and he had a flattering smile on his face.

"It's delightful that you're so understanding."

Zhu Yixi nodded, came over and patted him on the back, encouraging him: "Work hard, it will benefit you in the future."

"Follow you, we will do our best to make new achievements."

Qin Deshou nodded hurriedly, the creases of his smile almost came out.

As long as Jiang Quan doesn't make trouble and can cooperate, Zhu Yixi is satisfied.

The military officer is different and must be controlled.

Immediately, Zhu Yixi brought this commander of the third rank to the army and frightened him.

From Feng County to Hanzhong, several checkpoints and county towns, all soldiers and horses were taken over by him, and now the number of soldiers and horses under him has once again exceeded 8000 people.

If you add Han Zhongwei, it will break ten thousand.

"This is a Fran machine gun, a tiger crouching gun, about two or three hundred."

"This is a cavalryman. Look at this horse. It was snatched from General Li Guo, Li Zicheng's nephew. To thank him, I took his head off."

Zhu Yixi introduced it with a smile.

When Qin Deshou heard this, his legs trembled.

Whether it is military appearance, soldiers and horses, or weapons, this is crushing!

After this round, he was completely convinced.

"The strong dragon crushes the local snake, and the man can bend and stretch, so I will bear him for a while."

After making up his mind, Qin Deshou's smile became brighter and brighter.

After showing off for a while, that's all.

Immediately, Zhu Yixi eliminated more than 2000 soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, and 2000 people collected along the way, and downsized them again, leaving only [-] soldiers.

With these thousand and five troops, Zhu Yixi directly merged into his musketeer battalion and acted as a long-distance card.

As a result, the army in Hanzhong reached 500 people.

Zhu Yixi directly resisted the banner of recruiting troops, and the number must be expanded to [-].

……

Two days later, the remaining troops also arrived in Hanzhong.

Zhu Cunji, King of Qin, immediately moved into Prince Rui's Mansion.

Seeing the resplendent palace and the familiar luxury, Zhu Cun felt extremely sad, threw himself into the arms of Rui Wang Zhu Changhao, and cried loudly:

"Uncle Wang, my nephew finally saw you, if it's a little later, just, just, woo woo woo..."

"Do you know how I got here these days? Woooooo..."

Zhu Changhao patted him on the back, feeling helpless, you said it!

He couldn't help saying: "Qin Fan, it's good to be able to escape, it's good to be alive."

Zhu Changhao, King Rui, is the fifth son of Emperor Wanli. He has been neglected all the time. He never got married at the age of 25. Under the scrutiny, Tianqi took the domain of Hanzhong only seven years ago.

Seeing King Qin's appearance, he felt a little emotional for a moment: "What does Xi'an look like now?"

The chubby Rui Wang seemed to be naturally safe, and Zhu Cunji finally recovered, and said sadly:
"Sun Dushi was defeated in Tongguan, and his life and death are unknown. The city of Xi'an will definitely be occupied by intruders. Pity my palace. Hundreds of years of accumulation are all in vain."

Hearing this, King Rui looked distressed: "How much money is this worth? Damn trespasser, what a rebellion!"

"Who says it's not." Zhu Cunji cried.

"Then how did you get here?"

Zhu Changhao said doubtfully, "It's not easy to mess with trespassers."

Speaking of this, Zhu Cunji hesitated for a long time before telling the truth, and then said with disgust:

"This Zhu Yixi, although he is a son of the clan, is rebellious and rebellious, and he doesn't pay attention to me, the suzerain."

After Zhu Changhao heard about it, his eyes lit up instantly: "Nephew Wang, with this one here, the intruders might not be able to come to Hanzhong!"

"uncertain."

Zhu Cunji shook his head: "Think about it, even Tongguan has been won, let alone Hanzhong."

"No matter how bad it is, you can escort us to Sichuan!"

Zhu Changhao stroked his beard and said with emotion: "Uncle Wang, I haven't enjoyed a good life for a few years, and I'm all worried and frightened."

"Now, I also want to understand that it is better to live, and money has to be spent."

As he said that, in the eyes of King Rui, some vicissitudes could not help but appear.

Qin Wang Zhu Cunji also had some understanding, and he seemed to have grown a lot after fleeing.

"I'm going to submit a memorial to the emperor, to give credit to Zhu Guerzilla, and you should also add your signature."

As the uncle of Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Changhao was very close in blood, so his importance should not be underestimated.

Zhu Cunji nodded, and said helplessly: "Now, I also understand that we still have to coax him."

"Just understand." Rui Wang Zhu Changhao said with a smile: "Nephew, you are sensible."

And here, just after finishing the business, Zhu Yixi moved into a separate garden.

The smaller the house, the safer it is.

Just after being admitted to the hospital, I saw Sun Xuan and Sun Lin with different expressions.

He couldn't help wondering: "What's wrong?"

"You'd better see for yourself!"

Sun Xuan blushed and bowed her head in silence, so Sun Lin could only speak softly.

This piqued his interest.

"Hello sir!"

Opening the door, I saw two delicate beauties, one round and smooth, the other charming, they could be called the best beauties.

"Huh? Sugar-coated cannonballs?"

Zhu Yixi hesitated, worked hard for several months, and finally waited to be bribed.

Moreover, it is still a weakness.

"Who sent you here?"

"Reporting to the master, the servants belong to Prince Rui's residence."

"Prince Rui's Mansion?"

Zhu Yixi squinted her eyes, lost in thought.

Is it to accept the sugar coating and send away the shells?

Or do you want to be Liu Xiahui?
