Chapter 125 Shrinking hands
Chapter 125: Retreat
Li Meng was surprised and replied with a smile:
"It's not necessary to cut a thousand knives. My subordinates can pick you with a spear. I'm a little surprised. Are you so brave? Tell me, what do you guys come from? Let's take a look."
I thought that this thousand cuts were considered a serious statement, and it was the title of the guard of the royal palace, but no matter how he said that the other party would be shocked, he did not expect that Li Meng would come back with a smile and did not take it seriously at all. These people were even more discouraged and felt that he had no psychological reliance on him.
Several guard leaders lay on the ground and remained silent for a long time. Finally, someone slowly asked:
"Since the princess is in your hands, we always have to confirm what the princess's name is?"
"Zhu Yunyao."
Hearing Li Meng's answer, a guard leader immediately shouted loudly:
"This is not the name of our princess at all. You are a life-and-death thing, let it go..."
"Shut up, the princess thinks that Zhu Youyao's name is not nice, so she changed her name to Zhu Yunyao. You often work in the outer courtyard, don't know..."
The other guards retorted in a verbal manner, fearing that this reckless companion would cause death. However, the other party said the princess' name changed, and the matter was confirmed. The handle fell into the other party's hands and was stared at him, so he could only say whatever he wanted.
The local vassal kings were not allowed to leave the city. They enjoyed the rich clothes and food, and went to the streets to harm the people. They just stayed at home to give birth to children every day. The King of Zhou was no exception. There were a lot of princes in the family, but the only daughter was Zhu Yunyao, who was spoiled and doted on him.
Since childhood, she has been afraid of heaven and earth. It doesn’t matter if a girl has such a personality. Anyway, she is a beautiful girl from heaven. The princess is about fifteen years old and wants to talk about marriage. She also intermarries with noble relatives with titles in the city. But this girl has a very lively personality and likes to wander around. She is afraid she will be enclosed at home when she gets married. She has always thought that she will get rid of the marriage before getting engaged. The relatives and their children cannot leave the city. This is a dead rule. For such a girl, it is a painful bondage.
I went out of the palace several times to wander around, but there were a lot of servants and guards around me. I always felt that it was not satisfied and inconvenient. One day, I entrusted the maids around me to find a suit of servants' clothes and went out while wearing them.
There were so many people in the royal palace, all of whom were lifeless, and no one paid attention to it. As a result, in the afternoon, the princess wanted to see her daughter send someone to find her, but the frightened maid said everything. This was the sensation of the entire mansion. The situation outside was chaotic. Such a young and beautiful girl must be in danger.
The princess of the royal palace wandered outside, perhaps leaving the city, which was a huge disaster. Now Emperor Chongzhen is a mean and ungrateful emperor. If this matter was transmitted to the capital by the Jinyiwei of Kaifeng Prefecture or other secret spies from the yamen, he might be someone to be punished by the clan mansion.
The King of Zhou did not dare to neglect it. The guards' family sent them to search the city, so they naturally found nothing, but things went in a terrible direction. The King of Zhou and a few confidants decided and directly sent someone to post a post to the governor of Henan and the governor of the governor.
Although there is nothing to do with this matter, if a royal family member leaves the city, the governor, the governor and the Kaifeng Prefecture will all have joint responsibility. As a result, the governor Xuan Mo was also a decisive person. He immediately ordered the gate to be closed and the whole city was searched, saying that a prisoner had escaped from the yamen.
Naturally, the people were not found. At this time, they were tied up and left on the boat. The princess said to the outside world that the princess suddenly had an acute illness and could not come out to see people. On the other hand, he sent people to inquire everywhere. Naturally, there were people who were arranged to ask questions at the ferry, and even a reward was hanged in secret.
I haven't found it for a month or two. When I thought I was just lost, news came from the ferry. The entire palace was so ecstatic. There was only one daughter in the Zhou palace. If it were other princes, the daughter would run away. Who would still pay attention to it? It would be best to die outside.
The people at the ferry all had Menqing for the boats on the Yellow River. Since they saw the boat, they could probably find the way they came. Following this way, the royal palace sent guards.
More than 60 guards from the palace came out. In their eyes, the Shangshang on the river easily took it down. However, in order to worry about the guards leaking the secrets, the Zhou palace called him in advance and gathered all the family members of the guards, saying that no matter whether the news was leaked or not, as long as there was a mistake, it would be implicated.
These guards all took on the task with a frown. They came over after going out and asked the money. After the money was scattered, the news was still found. Moreover, Li Meng only hid his identity, so he couldn't hide it when he was on a boat. He could easily find this place and specific people.
After coming, I was a little stunned. I originally thought it was a businessman who had chosen the princess to be greedy for beauty. Who would have thought that it was a general in Jiaozhou. The Zhou royal mansion was easy to speak in Kaifeng, so in Shandong, he had to do things secretly. Poor these guards, who just inspected the royal mansion on weekdays and bullied the poor. It was really difficult for them to break into such a difficult matter at night, and they were caught by the other party.
Once people who live in a pampered and oppress others' habits enter the current environment, their spirits will immediately collapse. They thought they were a wolf, but they didn't expect that they were pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping board. Li Meng used some tricks and could only help them get everything.
In the current situation, Li Meng firmly grasped the initiative. When the news was released, no matter how generous the Henan officials in Kaifeng Prefecture helped, the first thing they had to do was to lead troops to surround the vassal prince's mansion and report to the capital. At that time, the King of Zhou would be a serious crime. The families of these guards were afraid that there would be no way out, so the extremely weak guards dared to speak out the tough words that Li Meng would kill him.
"Take it to Fengmeng Town in batches, and circled everyone for me, and told them that if one of them ran away, they would kill everyone and let the soft eggs look at each other."
After Li Meng ordered Chen Liuzi, the guard leaders who looked like insects on the ground all breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this way, it didn't seem like they were going to kill people. This experience, which was about to die but escaped from birth, really made them feel ups and downs.
Hearing a cry, one of the guard leaders felt relieved and thought that he could live, he started to cry over there. Li Meng and Chen Liuzi both frowned. Chen Liuzi went out to call Yan Ding to come in, carried the people who were sank on the ground, leaving Li Meng to sit in the main hall and ponder.
This matter is shocking. You can meet a princess when you walk on the street, and then provoke dozens of guards to the door. However, no matter how you look at it, this matter is only good but not bad for him. Li Meng is thinking about what benefits he can bring to him?
This day was really thrilling, but the final outcome was good. Soon, at the inspection house in Jiaozhou City, orders were passed on one after another, and the emergency began to slowly be lifted. There were so many soldiers in the city, even if the military discipline of Jiaozhou Camp was good, it was easy to be caught, so I still had to transfer some out of the city.
The Jiaozhou Camp has been busy with the trouble for several days. Although outsiders can't see what they are doing, they always feel that in Jiaozhou, the mastermind of Jiaozhou is Li Meng, who is in charge of the country, and the world is in the Ming Dynasty. Apart from the founding of the country and the Jingnan years, when will the military general be in charge of civil servants?
However, the Jiaozhou Prefect's yamen was extremely peaceful this time. Yan Zhizhou was still writing there. The calligraphy master followed Yan's style and was getting better and better. Wu Tongzhi was still a god. Everyone's attitude towards him was much better. Everyone knew that the Jiaozhou garrison was very close to him.
The officials of all sizes who were originally full of resentment have now become much more settled. Looking at the soldiers who were moving back and forth, everyone was shocked. Shandong has never cut off its swords and weapons. These officials of all sizes have seen some soldiers here and there, but even border soldiers do not have this temperament.
Li Meng went out with more than a dozen big carts tonight. This time, Li Meng calculated that he was still making a profit.
At least these guards were all good things to prepare for the image of merchants, and the guards of the royal palace had a lot of money on them, which was also a supplement. After it got dark, they arrived at the Li Family Manor in Fengmeng Town. Fortunately, they were both sides going back and forth, and everyone was prepared and not much trouble.
After settling down, the family of Liaodong craftsmen came to report what Zhu Yunyao had come to Fengmeng Town to do. The answer made Li Meng scratch his head quite a bit. Today he ran back and forth on a horse, frightened and racked his brains to deal with the guards. But what did Zhu Yunyao here do?
The family member who served her said that she had never been to the countryside. She ran wildly in the town and around until dark, making the people guarding him exhausted. After Zhu Yunyao came back, she had a simple meal and went to bed, looking carefree. This was not the reaction after being called out by someone.
