The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 114 The Inertia of History

Zhu Yujian didn't wait for Huang Daozhou to unfold the note, he first ordered Pang Tianshou to fetch a piece of silk brocade, but when he looked up, he saw the eunuch's embarrassed face, so he realized that there was no silk brocade among the carriages and horses.

Long Wu pulled off the curtain on the side of the car, and was about to ask for a pen, but stopped abruptly, glanced at his right hand, bit his index finger suddenly, and wrote several lines of blood on the cloth with his finger.

After a while, he reached out again and said, "Pang Tianshou, Yuxi."

Seeing the car stopped, Empress Zeng carried the prince to the Longwu car to inquire about the reason. As soon as she opened the car door, she saw her husband was rubbing jade seals heavily on a blood-soaked curtain.

Zhu Yujian turned his head to see the queen, smiled and reached out to take the crown prince, "Come on, give me a hug! Oh... good boy!"

He looked lovingly at the pink and jade-carved baby in his arms, rubbed his face lightly, then picked up the blood book and stuffed it into the swaddle silently, "Son, in case father... you have to be filial to mother, do it Great Ming's Ming Jun..."

"Your Majesty!" Empress Zeng said urgently, "Yuan'er is still young, how can he leave his father's teachings... We are all safe and sound."

"Yes, what Hui Niang said is right." Zhu Yujian pinched the baby's face with his rough fingers, "After the disaster in front of me is over, I will meet you in Jiangxi!" Continue to sleep soundly.

"Your Majesty, it's Shanghang." Huang Daozhou showed the note in his hand to Longwu, "Since it's God's will, it's not too late."

"Go and make arrangements." Long Wu handed the crown prince to Empress Zeng, "Old Huang Ge, follow the empress to Changting."

"Changting?" Huang Daoyi was stunned, "I should follow the emperor..."

"A generation of empresses," Long Wu interrupted him, "someone must help her make up her mind on the way."

"I... obey the order." Huang Daozhou knelt down and saluted Longwu solemnly, "Take care, Your Majesty!"

Afterwards, Jiang Zhengxi divided the troops into two groups, one group led by himself, escorted southward, and the other group was handed over to Huang Daozhou, who went west with Empress Zeng and the crown prince.

……

On the other side, after chasing for more than an hour, Li Chengdong finally shot "Long Wu" in the back with an arrow, and the man immediately fell down.

Li Chengdong hurriedly led the crowd to surround him, but no one recognized Longwu's face, so some confidantes suggested to take the body back to Yanping to find someone to identify it.

Li Chengdong squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, but shook his head and said: "No, I heard from Hong Xu's subordinates that Longwudang has a newborn prince." He looked at Zhou Zhifan's body, "Even if this person is really Longwu, then His son should still be on the run."

He ordered Zhou Zhifan's head to be cut off and sent back to Nanping County, while he got on his horse and said to his subordinates, "Capturing the fake prince is also a great feat, follow me to win the battle!"

Hundreds of cavalry shouted and continued to run south with him.

……

Zhu Linmi led the Longwei Army into Shanguan, and immediately received Longwu's order, asking him to rush to Yanping to meet him, without any mistakes.

He had just read the Di Bao two days ago, saying that Boluo had captured Quzhou City, and the main troops were going south in two ways.

The distance from Shanguan to Nanping County is shorter than that from Xianxiaguan to Nanping, and the marching speed of the Longwei army must be faster than that of the Qing army. Zhu Linmi has absolute confidence in saving Longwu.

In addition, the imperial decree ordered Zhu Linmi to restrain all Ming troops in Fujing from now on, so that she could do things cheaply, and those who violated them would be punished as treason.

With this power, he can go all the way unimpeded, and if he encounters Zheng Zhilong's subordinates who don't open his eyes, he can kill him immediately.The serious crime of treason is not at his discretion.

However, when the Dragon Guards left the territory of Shaowu Mansion and had just entered Yanping, two hussars escorted a man dressed as a merchant to Zhu Linmi, saying that this man claimed to have a secret letter to be handed over to King Chen. Your Highness.

"You are His Royal Highness Chen Wang?" The "merchant" had heard the description of Chen Wang's appearance, and he was exactly the same as the young man in front of him.

"It's the king. What are you doing?"

The man saluted first, then pulled out a note from the brim of his hat, "The villain was sent by Elder Huang Ge, and I am waiting for His Highness here. This is a secret letter from Elder Ge."

Zhu Linmi asked someone to fetch the imperial decree drafted by Huang Daozhou for comparison, and it was indeed his handwriting.

The letter states that Jianlu's vanguard has entered Xianxia Pass, and the royal driver has already left for Tingzhou for the safety of the sage. If King Chen arrives near Yanping, he will go south to Tingzhou immediately to escort him.

"Why can't you hold your breath at all?!" Zhu Linmi sent the messenger away and stuffed the secret power into Shi Lin's hands, feeling anxious.Tingzhou, this curse-like word, in history, Longwu was shot to death by Li Chengdong's random arrows in the government office of Tingzhou.

He spent so much effort to reverse the situation in Jiangxi, and repeatedly told Longwu to leave Shanguan and go west.I thought that history would be rewritten by him, but I didn't expect that Long Wu would still run towards Tingzhou with all his heart!

Thinking of this, Zhu Linmi was a little annoyed, not because Longwu went south, but because he felt that the trend of history seemed to be against him all the time!
Why did the historical inertia lose its effect when the Qing army crossed the Qiantang River, and when he was about to save Longwu, the historical inertia of Zhu Yujian fleeing to Tingzhou came.Could it be that history should make things difficult for Zhu Lin? !
If history hadn't turned against him, the defenders of Xianxia Pass had been replaced by his men, and the Qing army would have no chance to enter Fujian at all!

and many more!

"If it weren't for...the Qing army would not have entered Fujian." Zhu Linmi suddenly felt as if she had caught something.Could it be that the time for Boluo to cross the Qiantang River was advanced in order to allow the Qing army to enter Xianxia Pass? !
That is to say, at that time, the trajectory of history was changed so that the trajectory of the future could not be changed as much as possible?
That's right!The wheel of history is desperately trying to maintain its original track, and does not hesitate to use smaller deviations to offset larger deviations.

If Boluo had still crossed the river in June, then the capture of Fujian would never have happened. Compared with the current situation, history will undergo greater changes.

I see.After trying to understand this level, Zhu Linmi became more and more nervous—that is to say, history will follow the established track and try its best to drag Long Wu to a dead end!

Seeing his anxious expression, Zhang Jiayu and Zhen Zhen hurriedly rode their horses and walked up to him.

Zhen Zhen, a little girl, almost handed over the Polu Camp to Gu Yanwu along the way.Except for the time of pulling out the camp and patrolling the camp every day, she ran to the Longwei Army when she had nothing to do.

"Your Highness, are you uncomfortable?" She looked at Zhu Linmin's frowning and asked with concern.

"My lord, is there an urgent military situation? Do you want the army to stop?" Zhang Jiayu immediately asked.

Zhu Linmei signaled Shi Lin to hand over Huang Daozhou's secret letter to them.

Zhen Zhen immediately said in a loud voice: "Then let's not delay, the army hastened to turn south and advance to Tingzhou to meet them!"

Zhu Linmi pondered for a moment, then couldn't help shaking her head.

"What are you waiting for, Your Highness?" Zhen Zhen asked anxiously.
