Chapter 555
In the courtyard of the Cheng'en Hall in Xiangwang Palace, Zhang Xianzhong stepped forward and grabbed Du Ao's hand, pulling him up the steps again, and said: "How can I have many mother-in-law and mother-in-law chattering with them? It's more important to discuss our important matters. "

He then asked, "Have you all eaten?"

General Ma Yuanli, who was standing with Pan Duao, replied, "We are waiting for the commander to come back for dinner with Mr. Pan."

Zhang Xianzhong said: "Okay, bring the food quickly. I am busy with work, and I am so hungry that my stomach is rumbling. Look at the good wine in this palace, go and get some! What is the military commander doing? Why don't you come here?" ? Does he have any relatives in Xiangyang City?"

Ma Yuanli replied: "Yang Sichang has accumulated a mountain of military funds in Xiangyang, and the treasures and grains in Prince Xiang's mansion are also very large. The military commander is afraid that the generals assigned to him will be inexperienced, and there will be arson and looting.

He personally led the safe soldiers to check these places one by one, and the warehouses were also checked and sealed one by one, and the leader was assigned to guard them.

He also assigned the leaders to search the gold and silver treasures of the rich and powerful eunuchs in the various townships, and he also planned to take out dozens of shi of grain to give relief to the hungry people inside and outside the city today, so busy that he didn't even have time to eat breakfast. "

Zhang Xianzhong nodded and said: "Damn, good military advisor, good military advisor. Hurry up and send someone to invite him back, and have breakfast with me."

He turned his head to look at Pan Duao again, with a hint of dissatisfied ridicule in his eyes, and said, "Lao Pan, good man, you are not as good as him. I know all the nonsense you said in front of Yang Sichang.

However, don't worry, the past is all over.We don't care about small feet, and we will still reuse you as before.In the past year, you have been imprisoned and suffered, and you have suffered for our old Zhang. "

Pan Duao's eyelids were flushed, at first his heart seemed to be lifted up in mid-air, until after listening to the words of loyalty, he suddenly fell down.

He was ashamed and moved, and said with a chirp: "When I first met Yang Sichang, I just wanted to lie to him with some words. It wasn't because I was afraid of death, but I just wanted to spare my life for the commander in chief, so that I could pay for him later." Handsome drives the ears.

As the saying goes: Lu Yao knows horsepower, and time sees people's hearts.In the lifetime of Du Ao, he will be..."

"Don't say it, don't say it."

Zhang Xianzhong interrupted him with a smile, and said: "It's a trivial matter, let's cancel it, then it's considered a check. Ah, Lao Xu, you're back, I'm waiting for you for breakfast!"

Zhang Xianzhong watched the military advisor Xu Yixian enter the courtyard, then stamped his feet and said, "It's a pity! What a pity! The old boy Wang Shuzeng escaped!"

Bai Wenxuan then said: "When I turned back, I passed by the county yamen. Li Tianjue, the county magistrate, had already been hanged inside, and the county seal was placed on the official case. I heard from his servant that he was afraid of us killing corpses, so he died before he died. Handed over the county seal."

Zhang Xianzhong scolded: "As long as the public is not angry with a small official like a sesame seed, I don't necessarily want to kill him. On the contrary, being escaped by an old boy like Wang Shuzeng is indeed a bit too cheap for him!"

Xu Yixian had already met Pan Duao when he seized the gold, silver, treasures and grains of Prince Xiang's Mansion.

But now, he doesn't know what Zhang Xianzhong said just now. In order to give Pan Duao a reassurance, he quickly grabbed Pan's hand and said, "Old Pan, our commander-in-chief always misses you and always says I want to try to rescue you, and today I really rescued you from prison.

Our marshal's two wives were also fortunate to be taken care of in prison, and they are both very safe. This is a great contribution of yours. "

…………

Zhang Xianzhong's breakfast was served in the East Side Hall of Cheng'en Hall. Zhang Xianzhong first poured a glass of wine for Pan Duao to congratulate him on his safety.

Zhang Xianzhong was very happy, and he asked everyone: "Guess, what will Yang Sichang's next move be?"

All the generals in the hall began to guess that Yang Sichang had nothing to do anyway, and now it seemed that Yang Sichang had a high probability of ending up like Xiong Wencan.

After Zhang Xianzhong heard the speeches of the generals, he turned his head to look at Pan Duao and said, "Old Pan, can you tell me?"

Pan Duao, on the other hand, gave Zhang Xianzhong a smiling face without haste, and then continued: "In my opinion, Yang Sichang has exhausted his wits. He has been trapped in two famous cities and two vassals in succession. Now he has to leave." It's a way of committing suicide."

Zhang Xianzhong was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, he said with some sense of loss: "Ah? Please speak clearly!"

Pan Duao said: "Luoyang was indeed lost on the twelfth of this month, and even King Fu was killed by Li Zicheng. Now that Xiangyang is lost, King Xiang will also become the ghost of the general.

Just imagine, how could Chongzhen spare Yang Sichang lightly?
Even though Chongzhen intends to save his life, the family disputes in the court have always been fierce, and he has become the target of public criticism at ordinary times, why not take the opportunity to attack him, put him to death and then hurry up?
But Yang Sichang is not a cowardly and incompetent person like Xiong Wencan, so I guess he will probably commit suicide and die. "

Zhang Xianzhong stared wide-eyed and asked, "Is the news from Luoyang reliable?"

Pan Duao nodded affirmatively, "Yesterday I heard in prison that Xiangyang Dao and Fu's yamen have sent people to verify that it is absolutely true."

Zhang Xianzhong opened his mouth and scolded: "Damn it, I heard the rumors on the road, and I thought it might not be true. Look, is it annoying or not? We are not one step too late, and Zicheng really snatched it up." We are in front of my father!"

At this time, Ma Yuanli answered, "Although Li Shuai killed the Ming Dynasty's vassals first, this matter was done before our Xiying, but Prince Xiang is also a prince."

Zhang Xianzhong suddenly said: "Although King Xiang is also a prince, King Fu is Chongzhen's uncle after all. Killing King Fu is more satisfying and delicious!"

After a moment of silence, he went on to say: "Forget it, my father was a big pig when he caught King Xiang. Since Cheng killed King Fu, Chongzhen may not necessarily want Yang Sichang's life.

Let's kill King Xiang again tomorrow. Xiangyang is a place under Yang Sichang's own management. How can Chongzhen not want his half a catty?Let's eat quickly, do business quickly, and send this old bastard, King Xiang, to the west! "

…………

After hastily eating breakfast, Zhang Xianzhong ordered someone to set up a grand master's chair under the front porch of Cheng'en Hall, sat down first, and then ordered Xiang Wang Zhu Yiming to be escorted and kneel down to the steps.

King Xiang Zhu Yiming kowtowed and begged, "Grandfather Qiansui, please spare me!"

But Zhang Xianzhong said with a smile: "Fuck me, you are the thousand-year-old, and now you call me the thousand-year-old! I don't want anything else from you. I only borrow one thing from you today."

Xiang Wang Zhu Yiming asked in fear: "As long as Grandpa Qiansui spares his life, let alone borrowing a thing, the gold and silver treasures in the palace can be used by Qiansui."

Zhang Xianzhong said with a sneer: "Hmph, I have occupied Xiangyang now, and even your palace. How else can you prohibit me from using it? I don't accept your empty favor! But there is only one thing, you You must borrow it from me."

Xiang Wang Zhu Yiming didn't know the reason, and said in a trembling voice: "I don't know what Qiansui wants. As long as there is something in the little palace, I am willing to offer it to Grandpa Qiansui."

"There are some in the palace, so I don't need to borrow them from you. Is it okay if I borrow your head?" Zhang Xianzhong said with a wicked smile.

King Xiang Zhu Yiming hastily kowtowed and begged, "Grandpa Qiansui, please spare me! Please spare me!"

Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were full of cunning, and he said: "I came to Xiangyang just for you, and now you don't have to kowtow to beg for mercy. We originally wanted to kill Yang Sichang, but he is still in Sichuan, and we couldn't kill him even if we wanted to." , I had to borrow your head to use it.

Although my father chopped off your pig's head today, Chongzhen may chop off Yang Sichang's dog's head tomorrow.I'm busy today, so stop talking nonsense, and I'll borrow it right away. "

After he finished speaking, he shouted to the soldiers on the side: "Hurry up and get a bowl of wine!"

A soldier immediately brought Zhang Xianzhong a bowl of wine left over from his breakfast, and according to Zhang Xianzhong's eyes, brought the wine to King Xiang Zhu Yiming's side.

Zhang Xianzhong smiled evilly and said: "Our king, please drink this bowl of wine to strengthen your courage and straighten your neck when you walk out of the west gate of the city!"

King Xiang Zhu Yiming was still kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy, but he was dragged up by the soldiers on the left and right, and they no longer forced him to drink the death-death wine, and pushed him staggeringly out of the Duanli Gate, which was destroyed by the fire. Zhu Changfa, the son of King Guiyang, was pushed out of Xiangyang Ximen together and beheaded for public display.
