Chongzhen Undergraduates

"Let's go and watch with me. If that brat doesn't learn well, I'll kill him right away." After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he took Shi Kefa's hand and tiptoed inside.

This pair of children and elders are also disrespectful enough to spy on the young people in love openly, and find a lot of reasons for their behavior.

Pass through the two halls, walk to the backyard, and see two young people sitting on both sides of the pavilion from a distance.A beautiful girl played the piano quietly, and the prince sat upright, seeming to be listening very seriously.

"Your daughter is not biological, is she? She is much prettier than you. Look at your dark skin, you are almost as close as Bao Longtu." Zhu Youjian only saw a figure in the distance, and he was sure that it was a beautiful woman up.

Shi Kefa's face darkened, and he said in his heart: Although it's really not my own, you can't spoil me like this!

"The little girl is the adopted daughter of my old wife, and indeed she is not my own."

"What's your name?" Zhu Youjian looked hard again, thinking about his real age, and gave the prince a hard look.

"Shi Xiangyun."

"Oh, a good name. Shi Xiangyun?" Zhu Youjian was surprised, why is this name so familiar.

"It's Xiangyun's auspiciousness."

"Look, that brat has stood up. How dare he walk up to his sister..." Zhu Youjian was excited for a while, and he was waiting to see if the prince was going to put his hand on Shi Xiangyun's shoulder next. , still supported on the pillar behind the girl.

The prince walked gently in front of Shi Xiangyun, then stretched out his finger, and plucked a string, then retracted his hand, without overstepping at all.

From a distance, it seemed that the two young people were discussing something, their expressions were normal, neither eye-eyed nor affectionate.

"Shi Aiqing, were you peeking here just now?" Zhu Youjian asked abruptly.

"I didn't, I just came out and drove all the servants away." Shi Kefa bit the bullet, revealing his same gossip thoughts.

After watching for a long time, the young people over there are very pure, without any excessive behavior, just like two children playing games together in kindergarten.

Zhu Youjian was very disappointed, and said without interest: "There is nothing to see. Let's go, let's go to the flower hall to discuss matters."

"Ah, ah! Is the emperor going to talk to me about the prince's marriage?" Shi Kefa was overjoyed, thinking that Zhu Youjian was going to propose a marriage.

"What marriage? I want to tell you about Zuo Liangyu's military salary."

In Zhu Youjian's thinking, the prince and Shi Xiangyun didn't even hold hands at all, and they were not at the level of talking about marriage at all.

Shi Kefa was disappointed for a while, it seemed that this marriage might not be so easy.

"I'm asking you, how much money does Zuo Liangyu want?" The gossip was gone, Zhu Youjian felt his mouth was dry after sitting down, and after drinking a bowl of tea, he began to talk about things in a serious manner.

"Wuchang has 12 soldiers, and a total of 240 million taels of military pay is needed." (ps: Nanming's historical accounts.)

"Didn't Zuo Liangyu boast that he had 80 people? How did he become 12?" Zhu Youjian vaguely remembered that Zuo Liangyu claimed to have 80 people when he rebelled.

"The imperial court only recognizes 12 soldiers, and the Ministry of War also allocates salaries according to this amount."

"Two million and forty thousand taels, you don't need to give him a single word." Zhu Youjian stared at Shi Kefa and said fiercely: "If he wants military pay, he can come to Nanjing to get it himself."

Shi Kefa was frightened, and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, so, if something happens to the left side, it will be bad for my Daming."

The generals of the Ming Dynasty were all spoiled children, and they would ask for money at every turn. In fact, a large amount of military pay went into their own pockets.

If you have money, it is your own, and if something happens, it is the responsibility of the emperor and the court.This is a common tactic used by warlords.

"The soldier is a soldier of my Ming court. Zuo Liangyu himself has disobeyed orders. You can't feed him with more money. After I arrived in Nanjing, I issued three imperial edicts to him, but there was no news. Is this still Daming's army?

Since he no longer listened to orders and wanted to use money to keep things safe, there was no such reason in the world. "

"The minister raised 200 million taels. If the money is not given to the left, should it be distributed to other troops?" Shi Kefa saw that Zhu Youjian had made up his mind, so he could only do so. It hurts to ask for money everywhere.

"No, buy all weapons and guard against Zuo Liangyu."

Chapter 155: Find someone who can beat you

Xiangyang, in March 1645 in the Western calendar, was the only remaining city in the Dashun Dynasty.

Li Zicheng lives in Prince Xiang's Mansion, and has lost the unique temperament of a hero at this moment.

In the main hall, the melodious voice lingered, a group of maids were waiting around, and the table was full of various wine utensils.

Once you are king, you will never give up!

The attraction of a dragon chair to a person is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

From the capital to Xi'an, and then to Xiangyang; the emperor of the Dashun Dynasty lost a million troops, lost half of China's country, and lost tens of millions of taels of silver.

The only ones brought along along the way were thousands of court ladies snatched from the capital.

(ps: If you are interested, you can look it up. The last place where the Chuangjun stayed is Xiushui, Jiangxi. It is said that the people here are more beautiful than the surrounding counties, all because of the large number of court ladies in the capital that the Chuangjun plundered.)

As for Li Zicheng's last family property - the old battalion in northern Shaanxi, Li Guo was leading these people on a march through the mountains of the Qinling Mountains, and had not yet arrived in Xiangyang.

Li Zi succeeded or failed, almost completely.The 13 horses claimed to be brought here are actually just a group of old and weak women and children. Among them, the boastful soldiers are Li Guo's tribe who have not yet reached Xiangyang.

Fortunately, the Chuangjun general Bai Wang who was stationed in Xiangyang gave his strength, and Xiangyang still retained a full 7 horses.

"Your Majesty, you have only drank the eighth cup of the wine poured by the concubine. You are the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, so you have to drink the ninth cup no matter what!"

Li Zicheng, who had been slumped on the unorthodox dragon chair, was drunk and blurred, looking at his concubine Dou Meiyi in the capital, with silly joy.

Being the emperor is tn's good, there are either beauties or eunuchs in the harem, apart from himself, there is not even a normal man, so there is no need to be afraid of his wife cuckolding him anymore.

It's just a man, so this large group of women revolves around him every day, trying to please him in different ways.

"Hahaha... Gu just likes to stay in the harem, this harem is really comfortable!" Li Zicheng let out a wave of laughter, stretched out his arms to hug Dou Meiyi's slender waist, and opened his bearded mouth to face Dou Meiyi's face Nibbling up, a pair of huge palms just pinched the round buttocks.

This was originally a mouth commanding the heroes and a pair of hands holding spears tightly.

"Your Majesty, Empress Gao is here." Dou Meiyi was a little timid when she saw Gao Guiying walking in from outside in military uniform.

Several times, Gao Guiying beat Dou Meiyi severely. If Li Zicheng hadn't rescued her in time, ten lives would not be enough to pay for it.

"Mm, um. You should go back to your room first." Li Zicheng heard that Gao Guiying was coming, he quickly pushed Dou Meiyi away, sat down solemnly, and finally sneaked a dishonest glance at Dou Meiyi's ass.

"Zicheng, Li Guo has already arrived in Yunyang. You should make up your mind whether to stay or leave Xiangyang."

Gao Guiying was already disappointed that her husband's promiscuous behavior did not change. In the final analysis, Li Zicheng was the emperor after all; the status of the emperor was not that of the leader of the rebel army she married at the beginning.

Li Zicheng was afraid of his wife all his life, mainly because he couldn't beat Gao Guiying.Gao Guiying didn't even need to use the cat's claw technique, and she was able to subdue Li Zicheng in terms of punches and kicks.

"Azige's army is still in Dengzhou, and they haven't attacked here, so what's the hurry?" Li Zicheng waved his hand impatiently. The last thing he wants to think about now is fighting.Li Zicheng has been fighting wars for almost 20 years, and he has long been bored.

"Dengzhou is less than two hundred miles away from here, and the enemy army is cavalry, so they come as soon as they say it. How can we not be in a hurry?"

Li Zicheng was not in a hurry, but Gao Guiying was like an ant on the hot pot. She couldn't control Li Zicheng's subordinates. The only thing she could really manage was her battalion of female soldiers.
