Chapter 332: Uncle and Brother Help

After Zhang Jiayu entered the city, he found that a major general of the Qing army had not been captured, so many prisoners were captured. After the city was broken, most of the Qing army lost the momentum to resist, and the Ming army did not kill the prisoners, so they all surrendered. Zhang Jiayu suspected that the Qing army generals were mixed with the prisoners, so he handed over the task of identifying the prisoners to the Jinyiwei.

Wang Tong was also very depressed now. It was not for the Ganzhou incident, but for Qian Lide from Guangdong. He had just received the news that the commander Qian was thrown into prison by the emperor. He heard that it was because of the Qing army's attack on Guangzhou. The emperor was furious and beat Qian to his butt and had a full bloom of peach blossoms. Fortunately, Qian was the emperor's young master, and his official position and life would not be lost. However, the Jinyiwei below was in trouble. The Qing army passed through various prefectures and counties and hundreds of households were beheaded, and their families were sold to slaves.

Wang Tong was very glad that he was sent to Nanxiong. Although this was a war zone, it was precisely because it was a war zone that the Qing army did not dare to pass here, so his head and the whole family were safe.

What made Wang Tong depressed was that the commander Qian sent him a secret order. Because of the Guangzhou incident, the Jinyiwei had been killed by the Dongchang gang in front of the emperor. I heard that the Dongchang Admiral Cao Fang now saw that Lord Qian was already standing and talking. You should know that just before the Guangzhou incident, Cao Fang would kneel down and reply, "Who said that Lord Qian is the emperor's childhood friend, which is similar to Emperor Jiajing's childhood friend Lu Bing.

Therefore, Qian Lide's letter to Wang Tong said that the emperor's attention is now in Ganzhou, so that Wang Tong must make great contributions and strive for the Jinyiwei.

So Wang Tong immediately started working after receiving Zhang Jiayu's general order, striving to catch the big fish of the Qing army as soon as possible and give Lord Qian a face.

After entering the city, Wang Tong took his brother-in-law to work overnight. He has now interrogated more than a dozen suspects. Not to mention, he actually caught a few big fish, but they were all Qing generals at the level of deputy generals. The main Jin family father and son and Wang Deren were not caught.

Wang Tong looked at the Qing soldiers who were arrested, and he could see at a glance that this Qing soldiers were not simple. Wang Tong's ancestors were the hundreds of households of the Jinyiwei, and he was familiar with the handling of cases and interrogation.

"Tell me about Qing soldiers opposite you!"

Jin Daoming wanted to make a few quibbling words, but Yang Xian, who was beside Wang Tong, had long recognized him. When he entered the city, the Jin family father and son rode high-headed horses. As lurking Jinyiwei, how could Yang Xian not pay attention to them?

Yang Xian stood up and walked to Jin Daoming, and smiled and said, "Don't pretend, General Jin Er?"

When he heard that his identity was being called out, Jin Daoming's face was ashen and his eyes were turned around and he thought about what to do. If he didn't find a way, he would have to die.

At this time, Jin Daoming suddenly thought of Zhu Hongsan. This artillery used by the Ming army was the same as the army back then. In other words, they could not be separated from Zhu Hongsan. Perhaps only in this way could they save their lives.

Thinking of this, Jin Daoming shouted loudly: "Do you know Zhu Hongsan? I am his relative!"

Wang Tong and Yang Xian didn't expect that this guy could still recognize His Majesty the Emperor. He had never heard of the Emperor having relatives from the Qing army! However, Wang Tong knew that His Majesty the Emperor was lustful, so his wife all came to rob him, and perhaps it was the relatives of that wife.

Even the emperor's most unpopular concubine is not something he, a small Jinyiwei Qianhu, could afford to be accused of. Wang Tong heard Jin Daoming say this and asked, "Bold, you actually mentioned the name of our Shenwu Emperor. Don't you want to live?"

Jin Daoming was stunned when he heard this. Emperor Shenwu knew that the edict of Zhu Hongsan ascends the throne had spread throughout southern China, but it was not said that it was Zhu Hongsan, but that the King of Chu ascended the throne in accordance with the will of heaven.

Unexpectedly, the devastating royal family could become the emperor back then? Jin Daoming felt that the world was too incredible and even began to doubt life.

Just when Jin Daoming doubted his life, Wang Tong asked: "You said you are a relative of His Majesty the Emperor, tell me what kind of relative you are. If you are telling lies, don't blame us for being rude!"

"My wife is Ma Jiyuan's second daughter, and your emperor is my brother-in-law!"

Ma Jiyuan's daughter is the current imperial concubine. Wang Tong knew about this, but he did not expect that Governor Ma had a second daughter.

Wang Tong and Yang Xian discussed in a low voice and decided not to touch Jin Daoming first. It would be easy to deal with what he said was fake. If he really hurt him, he would be in trouble. Who wouldn't know that Ma Jiyuan is the governor and Ma Mingyuan is the first deputy prime minister. Although the Jinyiwei is not under their jurisdiction, it would be uncomfortable to give you some eye drops.

Wang Tong asked him to take Jin Daoming down first and detain him alone. Then he said to his brother-in-law: "Do you see clearly that he is really Jin Daoming?"

"Yes, brother-in-law! Although he is now in a mess, I will never admit my mistake!"

Wang Tong pondered: "It's a bit troublesome now! I finally caught a big fish, but I didn't expect it to be a relative of His Majesty the Emperor. What should I do?"

"Brother-in-law, this is not easy to deal with. We are the magistrate Feng interrogating the prisoners of war. Let's hand him over to the magistrate! If it is true, then we will find His Majesty's relatives, and Lord Qian can also regain His Majesty's trust. If it is false, there will be the magistrate with us to take the blame!"

"Yes! This is a good idea!"

After making up his mind, Wang Tong hurried to find Zhang Jiayu and reported this important situation to him.

Zhang Jiayu was also busy after entering the city. Originally, the local officials in Ganzhou were killed by the Qing army, but now no one works at all. The city was slaughtered by the Qing army, but there were still 50,000 or 60,000 people left, and the resettlement of these people was a big problem.

While publishing the notice of peace, Zhang Jiayu wrote a letter to Guangdong, asking His Majesty the Emperor to transport grain quickly. The 50,000 people in the city, plus more than 70,000 Qing army prisoners outside the city, had only been less than a month's food and grass.

At this time, Wang Tong, a Jinyiwei, came to report that he had captured Jin Daoming. Zhang Jiayu was still very happy. Finally, he caught one, but it was very regretful that he did not catch Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren.

After hearing Wang Tong say that Jin Daoming himself said that he was the emperor's relative and that his wife and the imperial concubine were sisters, the news was really amazing.

Zhang Jiayu knew that Ma Ruyan was not from the right place, and Ma Jiyuan didn't like this illegitimate daughter very much, but Zhang Jiayu didn't know anything about Xinyang. After all, now that Zhu Hongsan is the emperor, he still needs some shame. Everyone has a tacit understanding of the bad things he did before.

Zhang Jiayu thought about it and thought it was not easy to deal with, so he called Ma Rufeng to ask. After all, he was the younger brother of the imperial concubine Ma Ruyan.

Soon Ma Rufeng was called and asked Zhang Jiayu to tell him about the matter. Ma Rufeng's face was full of strangeness.

Wang Tong is also an old man. He knew that Ma Rufeng was almost inseparable from this matter. It would be better to know less about the secrets of the emperor's palace. Wang Tong quickly said that he would interrogate prisoners of war and leave Zhang Jiayu.

Seeing Wang Tong go out, Ma Rufeng sighed and told Zhang Jiayu about what happened in Xinyang.

Of course, Ma Rufeng did not say that Zhu Hongsan let the bandits enter the city for his own escape, but Zhang Jiayu is a master. From some of the things Ma Rufeng said occasionally, and his understanding of Zhu Hongsan as a human being, he still knew about the matter. However, Zhang Jiayu did not ask in detail, the less you know about such things, the better.

"It seems that the imperial concubine has a sister. Then ask Captain Ma to see Jin Daoming and touch his situation!"

After learning that Jin Daoming was the emperor's brother-in-law, Zhang Jiayu immediately had a plan in his mind to use this Jin Daoming. Now Jin Shenghuan is the general of Jiangxi in the Qing Dynasty, and all the Qing army in Jiangxi are under his command. If Jin Shenghuan can be persuaded, this will be a great achievement.

When Ma Rufeng heard Zhang Jiayu say this, he nodded and said that it was too late today and would go to visit Jin Daoming tomorrow.

Wang Tong knew about Jin Daoming and the emperor, and immediately went back to resettle Jin Daoming from the new place, prepared a clean room for him, changed his clothes, and took a shower.

Seeing his treatment changed, Jin Daoming knew that they had confirmed what he said. It seemed that he didn't have to die. He couldn't help but relax and took a good night's sleep.

Jin Daoming slept very sweetly, and he didn't get up until the next day at midnight. As soon as Jin Daoming got up, he saw a person sitting in the room. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully. It was his brother-in-law Ma Rufeng.

Jin Daoming stepped forward and hugged Ma Rufeng's legs and shouted, "Uncle, you are here, you must save me!"

When Ma Rufeng was in Xinyang, he could still talk to Jin Daoming. After all, Ma Rufeng was also a soldier and had some common language with Jin Daoming, who was born in a military household. Unexpectedly, after more than ten years of separation, the two met again in Ganzhou, thousands of miles away from Xinyang.

Ma Rufeng sighed and said, "Brother-in-law, get up quickly." After that, he helped Jin Daoming up and sat down.

"Brother-in-law, how are you doing this for more than ten years? How are my sister?"

"Hey! How else can I live? I'm just a military household and I'm still fighting with my father! Ruyun lives well. Our son is eight years old. When I left Nanchang, Ruyun was five months pregnant. Now he should be born!"

Ma Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her sister was fine. Her sister Ma Ruyan was always in front of her grandfather, and her two legitimate brothers didn't like her, so Ma Rufeng was very close to her, the sister born to her mother. Now she is very happy that she is living a good life.

"Uncle, I heard from the Jinyiwei who was interrogating me that Zhu Hongsan became the emperor?"

Ma Rufeng quickly interrupted Jin Daoming and looked around. Ma Rufeng knew how powerful Zhu Hongsan's spy methods were. He had spies in his group, so it was better to do less about mentioning the emperor's name.

"Now you want to call Emperor Shenwu, don't mention your name again!"

Jin Daoming didn't know how powerful Zhu Hongsan was, but when he saw Ma Rufeng's cautious look, he nodded to show that he knew.

"Brother-in-law, I'm here to see how you are, but how you arrange it will still require the emperor's will. Brother is really not able to help here!"

After hearing what Ma Rufeng said, Jin Daoming, who had just felt relieved, raised his heart again and asked, "Brother, can't my father-in-law save me?"
