Chapter 385
Zhu Changyuan stayed in Xiangyang City happily for a day, and then received the imperial edict.

The content of the edict is naturally to announce his sudden death in Dongchang to the public, and then to reward generously, and the three wives were all named imperial wives.

When Zhu Changyuan saw the edict, he smiled slightly and put the edict on the table.

Li Dao said, "My lord, I have a plan."

"Tell me! What good plan do you have?" Zhu Changyuan looked at Li Xin and asked.

Li Xin smiled and said: "My lord is fair to Sichuan, Shanxi, Ding Jingxiang, and recovered Liaodong. He has won the hearts of the people of the country. If someone can expose the lies of the court at this time, and say that the lord died of poisoning, the people of the world will deserve it." What do you think?"

"Good idea!" Zhu Changyuan clapped his hands and laughed.

In this way, it would be like adding fuel to the fire for the Ming Dynasty. At least, when it perishes in the future, it won't get so many people's sympathy.

"If you believe this, order people to go all over the country to complain for the lord!"

"Okay!" This kind of thing is not done for nothing.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhu Changyuan to rebel immediately now, and not only can't rebel, but he also has to control the people under his command, so that they don't have any accidents.

So, I made a phone call to each of my subordinates guarding one side, told them about my current situation, and told them not to move around.

+ + + + + + + + + +
In fact, what Zhu Changyuan and Li Xin did was, to put it nicely, it was icing on the cake, and to put it badly, it was superfluous.Because, they all seriously underestimated Zhu Changyuan's influence in the hearts of the people of Ming Dynasty, and the resentment in the hearts of the people.

Not to mention far away, just after the news of Zhu Changyuan's death reached the land of Jingxiang, I don't know how many people cried bitterly when they heard it.

The people in Xiangyang even spontaneously organized together, saying that they wanted to build a temple and shrine for him on the mountain in the west of the city to commemorate him.

When Zhu Changyuan was in Xiangyang, he not only wiped out bullies like Sun Xiaofeng, but also exterminated all the bandits in the entire Xiangyang mansion, and drove away the old hooligans Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai.

For Xiangyang Prefecture, it can be described as a great merit.No wonder the people worship him like a god.

However, the place where Zhu Changyuan gave the most merit is not Jingxiang at all, but Shaanxi.

"Ah..." In Yangxian County, Hanzhong, a burly, dark-skinned man stood under the elm tree in front of his door, crying bitterly, and at the same time, a pair of big hands kept beating his chest.

"King Yanming is dead, King Yanming is dead!"

He gasped heavily and exchanged tears.

"Daniu, don't cry, go, follow me!"

A clear voice came from outside the door suddenly.

Daniu stopped crying, looked outside the door, and said, "Xiaohu, what are you doing here?"

Xiaohu was carrying a shovel, looked at Daniu with a serious face and said, "Just now the village chief sent a message to let us all go over, saying that he wanted to go to the county town to ask, how did the prince die?"

"Okay, I'll follow!"

Daniel clenched his fist and said, "Without the prince, my whole family would starve to death. The prince came to our Yang County again, and I took a look at him from a distance. At such a young age, I wouldn't believe that he would Sudden death."

"Yes!" Xiaohu threw the shovel in his hand to the ground and said, "My lord taught us how to grow grain, and gave us seeds and fertilizers. Until now, the grain in my warehouse can last ten years. Your lord's kindness to us , It’s bigger than the sky, if I know that someone killed him, even if it’s ten thousand miles away, I will run to find him to pay for his life.”

"Wait for me, I'm coming!"

Daniel took out a hoe for digging the ground from under his jujube tree, and followed Xiaohu to the village chief's house.

When Daniu and Xiaohu arrived at the village head's house, they found that the village head's house was already full of people. Daniel even saw a few people with white cloths on their heads, like filial sons and grandsons wearing filial piety for their ancestors Put on filial piety for Zhu Changyuan.

"hateful!"

The village head slapped the table, and said: "I just received the news today that the imperial court ordered the world to say that the king of Yanming is dead! I don't believe it. How can such a good person as the prince just say nothing."

"Yes." A young gentleman came out and said to everyone: "My lord is so good at kung fu, and his skills are also excellent. It must be those damned eunuchs in the East Factory who are jealous of his achievements. He was tortured by them." died."

"Dead eunuch!" The village chief believed the little scholar's words in an instant, gritted his teeth and said, "Brothers, I don't bother to care about other things, but the one who was killed by those bastards this time My lord, my lord is kind to us."

"I don't care what you think." The village head said again: "Anyway, my five members of Wang Jiujun's family were saved by the prince."

At that time, the village head brought his wife and children in the Qinling Mountains. They were short of food and clothing, and starved when they couldn’t hunt. The wife and children almost starved to death in the mountains. It was at that time that Zhu Changyuan brought a large amount of grain and taught Hanzhong people to grow early rice. , Moreover, a bumper harvest was obtained.

Now Wang Jiujun's family has nearly ten years of food in storage.

"So, I plan to go to the capital to seek justice for the prince." The village head stood up indifferently, and said: "Anyone who is willing to go with me, anyway, I probably won't be able to come back after this trip."

"I go!"

Daniel was the first to stand up and raised the hoe in his hand.

"I am coming too!"

"I'm going too!" "I'm going too!"

. . . .

More than [-]% of the labor force in the village are willing to go to the capital with the village head.

Although, for most of them, they still don't know where the capital is, how to get there, and how far away it is?
However, this is not important anymore. For these people who are willing to take their lives, everything else is really not too important.

Similarly, whether it is Yang County, Chenggu, or Hanzhong Prefecture.

Countless people, in groups, some went to the capital to ask the court to explain, some went to the government to ask for an explanation, and some went to the bank of the Han River to mourn.

The whole Hanzhong was filled with a terrifying atmosphere.

Even Hu Guangpeng, the county magistrate of Nanzheng County, couldn't bear the huge pressure brought by the people, and rose up in person, saying: "King Yanming was killed by the eunuchs of Dongchang with poisoned wine. I want to avenge the prince."

There was one person who rose up, and the rest of the people fought with each other to the death. In less than two days, his subordinates suddenly gathered a terrifying army of [-].

It's just that Hu Guangpeng himself is just a scholar, and he doesn't know how to fight with soldiers, and he doesn't know where to start and who to fight.

Therefore, he took these 3 people to Hanzhong Mansion first.

It didn't matter this turn, the city gate of Hanzhong Mansion was smashed open immediately, the magistrate was killed, and Hu Guangpeng himself just occupied Hanzhong in a daze.

What's more, what confused him even more was that one day later, the county magistrate of Chenggu County was killed, and Chenggu took refuge in him. A few days later, Yang County and Mian County surrendered one after another.

In less than ten days, the whole of Hanzhong belonged to him alone, and his army also expanded from [-] to [-].

Many people brought their own food to join the army, and Hu Guangpeng basically didn't need to care about food. The most important thing Hanzhong Mansion lacked now was food.

Are the people in Hanzhong highly enlightened?

tall, but compared with the people on the Weishui Plain, this is pediatrics again.

To be precise, the millions of people on the Weishui Plain are not angry or angry, but crazy!

To say that they are crazy is the original words of Shaanxi governor Sun Chuanting.

In the city of Chang'an, when the imperial edict came to say that Zhu Changyuan had died suddenly, Sun Chuanting didn't pay attention to it, and only said to his subordinates: Although Chang Yuan's meritorious service is unrivaled, but now the world is peaceful, he should die. better than alive.

However, the next day, when his subordinates reported to him the situation in the entire Chang'an Mansion, he became anxious.

"My lord, it is reported that when the news of King Yanming's death came, most of the people in Chang'an Mansion wore mourning for him, and the supply of white cloth in Shaanxi was in short supply!" Said the master.

Sun Chuanting was startled and said, "King Yanming is so popular in Shaanxi?"

The master's complexion changed slightly, and he said: "The following counties reported that since the news of the prince's death came, one day yesterday, there were 290 people in Shaanxi who died for him."

"puff!"

Sun Chuanting, who was drinking tea, finally realized the seriousness of the matter, stood up, took a deep breath, and said, "Crazy, these people are crazy." He patted his head again, and said, "No, people's resentment is boiling, now they It's just that the sadness in my heart is hard to hold, if it is used by someone with a heart, the consequences will be unimaginable."

This sentence can be described as a prophecy.

+ + + + + +
"Brother, here we are, here we are, the opportunity is here!"

Liu Zongmin ran non-stop all the way to the depths of the mountains west of Baoji, came to a small village with only a few dozen people, opened the gate of a yard, and shouted impatiently: "Brother, the opportunity has come!"

Li Zicheng came out of the room in Tsing Yi, followed by a dozen or so cronies.

"Big brother, big brother! King Yanming, oh no, it's Zhu Changyuan, Zhu Changyuan is dead, dead!"

Liu Zongmin felt that his body was shaking, and every pore in his body was opened, and he saw an unprecedented hope.

"what?"

Li Zicheng opened his eyes slightly, walked up to Liu Zongmin, and said, "Is Zhu Changyuan dead?"

"died!"

Liu Zongmin took out a notice from his clothes that he had stolen from the gate of Baoji city, and said, "Brother, please read it."

Li Zicheng took the notice, read it several times, nodded as he read it, and then laughed loudly and said, "Okay, okay, old Chongzhen destroyed the Great Wall himself."

"Hey!" Throwing the notice on the ground, Li Zichang pointed his spear at the sky, and said, "One day when King Yanming is alive, I will never dare to go out of this deep mountain in this life. But now, in this world, who can stop me. "

"Brother, I heard that under the banner of avenging Zhu Changyuan, Hu Guangpeng of Hanzhong gathered an army of [-] in less than ten days. His subordinates thought, did we..."

"Of course!" Li Zicheng stroked his beard brazenly, and said: "This king is also from Shaanxi, and he was favored by King Yanming. Although we had a little misunderstanding with the prince before and fought two battles, we cherish each other and have been friends for a long time. Now Chang Yuan death, I shall avenge him."
