Chapter 2630 of the Bandits of the Ming Dynasty                                                                                                                       �

The time left for them by the tiger flag was to celebrate the city before noon, and neither of them dared to delay it.

At this time, Mr. Zhang and his group had already met the chief of the royal palace.

The external affairs of the vassal prince’s mansion are usually handed over to the chiefs of the royal palace.

Although the vassal kings were imprisoned in one place, not everyone saw the noble status of their own, and even some local officials could not see them just by wanting to.

"Wang Changshi, we are here to ask Your Highness for help." After seeing the Chief of the Prince's Mansion, Zhang Yuanwai came up and gave a deep gift.

Seeing this, the chief of the vassal prince's mansion showed confusion and said, "What are you doing? Can anyone in Jinan City take your lives?"

As the chief of the royal palace, he naturally recognized these big families in Jinan City.

"Don't the Chief Secretary know? The army of tiger thieves is outside the city. The cannons had been fired for a day yesterday." Zhang Yuanwai said, looking at Wang Changshi in front of him.

Wang Changshi said: "I naturally heard the sound of cannons in the palace, but with the commander Fu and General Cao defending the city, Jinan City will naturally be safe and sound. Don't worry too much."

He is aware of Fu Zonglong and his uncle and nephew of the Cao family. He is aware of the chief of the vassal prince's mansion, and is clear that they are all capable people, so they are still confident in defending Jinan City.

However, after hearing this, Mr. Zhang asked in surprise: "Has Wang Changshi heard nothing about the situation in the city?"

"What did you hear? Could something have happened?" Wang Changshi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart when he saw Zhang Yuanwai's appearance.

When Zhang Yuanwai saw Wang Changshi's appearance, he immediately knew that the other party might not know anything, so he said, "Yesterday, General Fu and two Generals Cao had abandoned the city and fled. The morale of the defenders in the city was insufficient, so they could only be considered as being barely guarded, but no one knew how long they could last."

"What? Fu Zonglong escaped!" Wang Changshi was stunned.

Just one day passed, and such a big change had happened in Jinan City, which made him unable to believe it.

"It's true. Such a thing cannot deceive people. Wang Changshi only needs to send someone out to inquire and find out." Zhang Yuanwai did not expect that Wang Changshi's news was so backward.

However, thinking that the vassal princes’ mansion is mostly closed and does not communicate much with the outside world, especially after knowing that the tiger-shaped flag army came to Shandong, they rarely deal with people outside the vassal prince’s mansion.

Although Wang Changshi believed in what Zhang Yuanwai said, he still sent someone to inquire about the situation in the city.

"Actually, we came here to hope that Wang Changshi can ask His Highness to take charge of the overall situation. I am afraid that the longer the time will delay, the more unfavorable it will be for Jinan City." Zhang Yuanwai said to Wang Changshi.

In his opinion, the identity and status of the vassal king are the best cards. As long as he is willing to stand up, it will be very beneficial to stick to Jinan City.

Wang Changshi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter, it's useless for you to find me."

"Wang Changshi only needs to inform Your Highness of the current situation in Jinan City. I think Your Highness will definitely stand up if you know the situation in Jinan City." Zhang Yuanwai said.

As a vassal king, they must not be able to see these gentry in Jinan City as soon as they want to see them. If they want to communicate with the vassal kings, they can only go through the chief of the royal palace.

"You don't understand. Your Highness will never stand up in this kind of thing. The person you should be looking for is the prefect's office." Wang Changshi said.

Mr. Zhang said, "We also went to find the magistrate's office, but when we learned that someone in the magistrate's office secretly contacted the thief army outside the city, we were worried that the magistrate's office might not do our best to defend the city. If His Highness can stand up, I believe that even if the people in the magistrate's office have some minor thoughts, they would not dare to do anything randomly."

"The prefect is so brave, he actually dares to contact the thieves!" Wang Changshi frowned.

Once Fu Zonglong fled, if the people from the prefectural office secretly interacted with the army of tiger-shaped flags outside the city, it would be difficult to defend Jinan City.

Mr. Zhang said: "How could I lie about such a thing? It's absolutely true, so I'd like to ask the King of Kings to invite His Highness out. The current city of Jinan needs the palace to take charge."

Wang Changshi thought about it and said, "Let's do it like this, you guys are waiting here, I'll go to see Your Highness now. As for whether Your Highness is willing to come out to take charge of the overall situation, I'm not sure."

"For the people of Jinan City, please pay more attention to the Chief Secretary." Zhang Yuanwai bowed to Wang Changshi again.

"You guys wait!" Wang Changshi said a word, walked out of the room, and walked towards the first palace gate in the royal palace.

The palace in the palace is very strict, and even the chief minister cannot enter the palace casually.

If you want to see the vassal king, you also need to have someone go in and report it.

There are palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, as well as guards in the palace.

Shortly after the person who came in and reported to him left, Wang Changshi was taken to a temple.

This temple is the place where the vassal kings handle government affairs. They usually don’t use it a few times a year, but they are used to meet foreign ministers every time. They are usually cleaned by eunuchs and palace maids in the royal palace, so they keep it clean and tidy even if they are not used very much.

"Me, please see Your Highness." The King Changshi bowed to the rich King De to bow to him.

"The King of Kings and Chiefs should not be too polite." King De sat on the seat in the middle and immediately ordered the eunuch who was serving him, "Go and serve Wang Changshi."

"I thank Your Highness." Wang Changshi saluted again.

The little eunuch brought a stake.

Wang Changshi lifted his robe and sat on it.

"The Chief Secretary is so anxious to see me, but what's wrong?" King De looked at the King Changshi in front of him lazily.

He inherited the throne of King De for a few years, but the chief of the royal palace was already the chief of the royal palace when the King De was the previous generation.

Moreover, the chief of the royal palace was arranged by the court, so he, King De, had no right to change it.

Wang Changshi said, "Just just got the news, just when the thief army outside the city attacked the city, General Fu and General Cao abandoned the city and fled. Now there are no leaders in the city. I hope that Your Highness can come forward to take charge of the overall situation."

As he said that, he looked at the King of De nervously in front of him.

"Fu Zonglong escaped? How is this possible!" King De said with a ugly face, "Isn't he afraid of the court punishing him in the future? No, I want to submit a report to the court immediately and have to punish him against him."

As he said that, King De stood up and was about to leave.

Wang Changshi hurriedly stood up to stop him, and said, "Your Highness calms down. The most urgent task is not to cure anyone's crime, but to defend Jinan City first. Otherwise, when the thieves outside the city enter the city, it will be dangerous."

He did not directly say that something might happen to the royal palace, but this is what he meant.

"What do you want me to do?" King De asked in a serious tone as he looked at Wang Changshi.
