Before dark, Chang Yu and his party arrived in Funing, which was only a hundred miles away from Shanhaiguan. However, Chang Yu did not intend to continue leaving, so he ordered the three cavalry to go to Shanhaiguan to tell Gao Di to meet him, and then led the team directly into the city to avoid further chaos.
People and things, this time I did not stay at the inn and went directly to the Yamen to rest, while my bodyguard went to the inn for repairs.
For a small border town magistrate, the eunuch of Dongchang is like a god. He is very busy with reception and holds a banquet to welcome Chang Yu and his entourage. Of course, behind the attentiveness is more fear and uneasiness. I don’t know why Dongchang’s eunuch meets him.
There is such a big guy coming to the door.
As a digression, if there was no county magistrate in the Ming Dynasty, they were all called magistrates.
For ordinary people, both the county magistrate and the county magistrate are called the county master, but they are very different in administration and have different scope of responsibilities. The county magistrate has been a long-standing official position and is held by local officials, but the county magistrate only appeared after the Song Dynasty.
They were officials sent by the imperial court to consolidate imperial power and tighten local power. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's urine nature naturally tightened the power of various places. Therefore, county magistrates in various places were dispatched by the imperial court instead of local officials. Therefore, there was no such thing in the Ming Dynasty.
When a county magistrate is mentioned, he or she is called a magistrate.
This day was extremely fulfilling but tiring. After the dinner, Chang Yu had a chat with the county magistrate and went back to his room to rest. He stayed up all night with Princess Hu Kunxing last night and was a little tired from chasing killers and catching thieves during the day.
As for the Blood Bat, he was put into a cell in the Yamen and guarded by several personal guards.
That night, Blood Bat tried his best to get rid of the ropes on his body, but to no avail. Because his whole body was numb and unable to exert any strength, he found various excuses. He was thirsty, hungry, and his wounds hurt, so he wanted to be escorted by his bodyguards.
He was loose and untied, but no one cared about him.
At dawn, Blood Bat felt that his body had some strength, and he was secretly happy. While struggling, he observed the few guards who were guarding him. He was even more happy when he saw that they were drowsy. As long as he could break free of the rope, the prison door would be closed.
He has a way to open the iron lock...
With a creaking sound, Wang Zhengnan walked into the cell. The guards in custody suddenly became more awake and nodded to Wang Zhengnan and said hello.
Wow, Wang Zhengnan shook the iron shackles in his hands. Blood Bat's heart sank and he felt as if he had fallen into an abyss. These iron shackles are used by death row prisoners. They are used for death sentences. After being cuffed, you need to use an awl to open them.
.
The rope was loosened for him, but iron shackles were placed on him. What was even more annoying was that Wang Zhengnan found a special iron nail from his hair that he used to unlock the lock, and then Wang Zhengnan pinched him a few more times.
, the Blood Bat suddenly felt his whole body become numb and weak again, he couldn't help but cursed loudly, but was slapped until he vomited blood.
After Chang Yu got up, he first warmed up with five kilometers and then had a fierce competition with Wang Zhengnan, which made him sweat profusely.
After they washed up, the prince and Princess Kunxing also got up. After breakfast, Princess Kunxing couldn't be resisted. Chang Yu accompanied her brother and sister to wander around Funing City. They didn't go back to the Yamen at noon and just found a house in the city.
The restaurant filled my stomach.
I thought Princess Kunxing should have returned home happily.
But where are you? Women's endurance for shopping has never been imagined by men from ancient times to the present. Princess Kunxing buys whatever novelties she likes, whether it is rouge, gouache or gadgets. Although these things are far less exquisite than those in the palace, she has the patience to buy them.
I can't help but like it.
While shopping around, Chang Yu didn’t feel sorry for Yinzi, it was just like all men, he didn’t like to go shopping with women!
If it was just for shopping, Chang Yu would have endured it, but Princess Kunxing suddenly became interested and said she wanted to go mountain climbing. She had never climbed any other mountain except Long Live Mountain in the palace.
Funing City is located in a mountain nest, with a majestic mountain next to it. Of course, what Kunxing wants to climb is not that mountain but the Zijin Mountain immediately to the south of the city. Although it is not big, it is much more majestic than the Long Live Mountain in the palace.
Come on, Emperor Chongzhen asked Chang Yu to help him coax the children when he asked them to leave the palace. It happened that he was so busy for the rest of the month and took the opportunity to go sightseeing and cultivate his sentiments, so he took the two of them out of the city to climb the mountains.
, surrounded by more than ten personal guards.
Chang Yu originally liked climbing mountains, but he had been fighting in the mountain den some time ago, and now he feels like vomiting when he sees the mountains.
The mountain is not high, but the bird's-eye view of Funing City is enough to make people feel relaxed and happy. Princess Kunxing, who is locked in a golden cage, is also excited and shouting. Chang Yu is thinking, why everyone can't help but think when they climb up and look into the distance.
Yelling.
"Look, there is a river at the foot of the mountain. Let's go catch fish in the river." Princess Kunxing pointed at the Yanghe River at the foot of Nanshan Mountain and jumped happily. Chang Yu suddenly got a headache. He walked all over the city and climbed the mountain again.
Isn't she tired from going into the water?
"It's getting dark soon. If you haven't had enough fun yet and want to go into the water to catch fish, come out tomorrow." After Chang Yu said this, Zhu Aona nodded obediently. Although Chang Yu was an eunuch and a servant of the royal family, no matter in Beijing
Neither the brother nor the sister regarded him as a slave, either inside or in the palace, and they listened obediently to what he said. What's more, after spending many days together outside the capital, Zhu Yuluo often forgot Chang Yu's identity as a eunuch.
She felt that he was just a big brother who doted on her and protected him at all times, not to mention Zhu Cixiang.
Some people may think it is an exaggeration. No matter how powerful you are, you are not just a eunuch and a servant of the royal family. How can the prince and princess obey you obediently?
If Chang Yu was an ordinary power supervisor, of course he would not be like this, but he is not an ordinary power supervisor. Please refer to Wei Zhongxian here. When Old Wei was at his most awesome, not to mention that the civil and military officials of the entire court fawned over him and hugged him, he was a relative of the emperor.
Everything had to be done based on his face. Even Emperor Chongzhen, who was still King Xin at the time, was trembling when he saw him, and had to be cautious and polite in everything he said.
What's more, Chang Yu is now on par with Wei in terms of power, and it's hard to compare him to Wei in terms of military achievements. It's just that he is low-key and unassuming, and he doesn't use power to pressure others, but mostly uses benefits to win over others.
From a public perspective, he has the most power in the world. From a personal relationship perspective, he has a close relationship with the Zhu family brothers and sisters. They are of the same age and have a really good relationship. It is normal to listen to what he says.
As soon as the group arrived at the foot of the mountain, they met Kuang Ren, who was staying behind in the city, and came to report that Gao Di had arrived.
The speed was fast enough, and Chang Yu's face immediately became serious. "How many people did he bring here?"
"More than thirty soldiers".
"Control his soldiers first," Chang Yu whispered to Kuang Ren. Kuang Ren turned around and left, but Zhu Cixi couldn't help it anymore: "Didn't he come to Gao Di to borrow food? Why...could he have done something wrong?
?”
"You can only look at them, but you can't ask them." Chang Yu glanced at him, Zhu Cihong said yes, and then everyone hurried back to the city.
Gao Di learned early this morning that someone came to Guanli to tell him that Chang Yu was on official business in Funing. He wanted to go to Shanhaiguan to explain some things to him after handling the official business, but a message came from Jingli asking him to return to Beijing as soon as possible, so
Unable to go to Shanhaiguan, Gao Di was asked to go to Funing to see him.
This news surprised Gao Di, but it was not surprising that Chang Yu wanted to see him. Chang Yu had to pass through Shanhaiguan on his two trips to and from Ningyuan, and he met him each time, so he was familiar with Chang Yu and had no doubts.
, what is surprising is that I heard that he had just returned to Beijing some time ago, but at some point he was already in Funing right under his nose and he didn't know it.
The people in Dongchang are really elusive.
Gao Di didn't know what official business Chang Yu was handling in Funing, but he guessed that the matter Chang Yu called him to explain must have something to do with Ning Yuan, because the person in charge had just changed over there, and the court was not very relieved about this person.
During the period when Chang Yu went south to suppress the bandits, the imperial court had repeatedly warned him, both secretly and openly, to be careful, not to be careless, and to be fully prepared... The meaning at the moment was self-evident, so he guessed that the young eunuch most likely summoned him because of this incident.
.
Because he was in a hurry, Gao Di hastily packed up and took thirty soldiers and rushed hundreds of miles to see Chang Yu. After entering the city, he arrived at the Yamen and learned that he had gone hiking outside the city. He thought that this little eunuch was very elegant.
