After Wu Mengming left, Chang Yu stood on the street corner biting his fingers and looked at the east gate of the palace less than thirty meters away and asked Chunxiang next to him: "Why do I feel that it is difficult to enter the palace gate today!"
Chunxiang laughed: "Brother, do you mean there is still someone looking for us in this short few dozen meters?"
Chang Yu smiled bitterly, looked around, and walked straight towards the Donghua Gate of the palace.
Donghua Gate is the east gate of the palace, and it can also be regarded as the main entrance, but it is rarely opened on weekdays. The servants of the palace have a special side door to enter and exit. Officials and rich gentry in the city usually enter through the main entrance, which is the south gate, when they visit. This side main entrance will not be opened unless
It is only for the prince to come in and out, otherwise it would not be opened at all on weekdays.
And given the current situation, all the side doors of the palace were closed tightly, so Chang Yu knocked on the door and looked around for a long time before a tough-headed guy showed his head: "What are you doing, who are you looking for?"
It was obvious that he didn't know Chang Yu, and Chang Yu and others were all wearing casual clothes.
"Is the prince at home? Please let me know!" Chang Yu stood at the door looking at the scenery while Chunxiang chatted.
"Not here!" said the tiger-headed guy, slamming the door shut!
I wiped. Chang Yu was startled. Before he could react, Fang San went up and kicked the door open: "You blind bitch, the factory owner is here, how dare you be so rude!"
The servant was beaten to pieces and was about to get angry when he suddenly heard the name of the factory master. Although he didn't know Chang Yu, he knew that Admiral Dongchang was in Taiyuan City at this time and had heard that he had come to the palace several times, but he
Not knowing that it was the young man in front of him, he repeatedly accused him, but also reiterated: King Jin is indeed not in the palace!
It's a good time to be away from home, otherwise he wouldn't be able to let go of the girl. Chang Yu secretly rejoiced: "Please inform the little princess and ask for a meeting with us!"
"The princess is not here either," Hutou's Ding said in a stuttering voice, looking extremely unnatural!
Oh, Chang Yu was startled, and then thought that Zhu Zhi'e liked to go out with Zhu Shenxuan, but he didn't think much about it: "Do you know where Prince Jin is going?"
“I heard that I went to Haizi in the west.”
On a cold day, why don’t you go to the beach to enjoy the breeze? You even take a girl to enjoy the breeze. This kid Zhu Shenxuan has a unique mind.
Chang Yu left the palace and decided to look for Zhu Shenxuan, or to be precise, to look for his sister.
The group of people did not ride horses and walked around the palace towards the west. Although the weather was cold, the streets were crowded. After all, tens of thousands of refugees poured in at once and it was very lively.
Even though refugee camps and temples have been arranged, it is still not enough, and these refugees will not stay where they are. They used to be able to work outside the city, but now they are prohibited from leaving the city, and they are rarely allowed to wander around in the city.
Refugees have always been a headache for those in power throughout the ages. They are a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, and security is a top priority. In addition, food and accommodation must be arranged, otherwise it will be a potential powder keg that explodes at any time!
Chang Yu has done his best to achieve this. Secretly, people from Jinyi Weidong Factory are keeping an eye on him. On the surface, he has arranged for an army to patrol the city 24 hours a day to intimidate Xiaoxiao. As for the issue of food and accommodation, a refugee camp has been set up.
, and requires all temples in the city to open their doors and open porridge shacks to provide three meals a day, which may not make you hungry, but you won’t starve to death!
With the basic living security of food and shelter, if you still can't keep your peace and do things that violate laws and disciplines to cause trouble, then you can't blame Chang Yu for being ruthless.
The west side of the city is more remote and has more open space. The refugees mainly camp here, and it is also the most chaotic place.
Chang Yu and his party deliberately passed through it to secretly check the mood of the people. What they saw was quite good. Although the refugee camp was overcrowded and there were mostly people gathering and chatting, the mood was relatively relaxed.
In other words, in addition to suffering the pain of being displaced from their homes, these refugees are living a much better life than before. You must know that in this year of war and famine, having food to eat is a luxury, but at this time, although they are homeless, they have no food or shelter.
Worry, what made them even more elated was that they had earned a lot of extra money by working outside the city, which was just plain cash.
Listening to them chatting and laughing, most of them talked about how to plan their lives when the war was over and they returned home. Chang Yu also sighed deeply in his heart. When would the war be over? Or when they knew that their so-called home had been burned down by Zhou Yuji and robbed.
What should you think when the army is dismantled?
After passing through the refugee camp, we reached the west of the city.
There are two gates in the west of Taiyuan City, Fucheng Gate in the northwest and Zhenwu Gate in the southwest. Chang Yu had just walked next to Wan'an Temple, which was facing Fucheng Gate.
The outer walls of the temple were crowded with refugees, also gathered in groups doing nothing.
"Look for him and ask." Chang Yu raised his hand and signaled. The servant of the royal family said that Zhu Shenxuan went to Haizi in the west of the city, but the details were unknown. It was necessary to know where to find him in the entire west of the city from the northwest to the southwest of Haizi.
However, when the dignified King Jin travels, he must have a lot of entourage. If there are witnesses nearby, there must be witnesses.
The follower quickly reported back that Zhu Shenxuan had led thirty or fifty riders to the bank of the Yinma River to the west of Wan'an Temple. Later, because there were too many refugees watching, he headed south toward the Confucian Temple.
Chang Yu and his party hurried towards the Confucian Temple. The dignified Confucian Temple is a spiritual sustenance place for worshiping Confucius as a literati tradition. It is very different from ordinary temples in nature.
But as soon as Chang Yu's military order came down, the role was the same. He also had to take in and help the refugees. It is said that the literati in Taiyuan were very disgusted when they heard about it. How could the feet of a saint be allowed to be trampled by white people in the mountains? They gathered together to seek explanation from Cai Maode.
.
Lao Cai is busy with military affairs in Taiyuan. Although he is also a civilized leader, he has no mood to care about such nonsense at this time. He only said that this order was issued by the admiral of Dongchang, and in extraordinary times, extraordinary things should be done...
...If it doesn't work, go and talk to the people in Dongchang yourself...
The matter was finally suppressed for the time being, but some scholars still spontaneously went to the Confucian Temple to maintain order. In fact, they were just looking for trouble and had some quarrels with the refugees, but they did not dare to take it too seriously. After all, people from the Dongchang and the military could use it at any time.
They were taken away to cause trouble.
"There is a fight in Xihaizi next to the west gate of the South Water of the Confucian Temple. It is forbidden to watch. It may be the King of Jin." The entourage hurriedly reported.
Chang Yu raised his eyebrows and started fighting, then realized that it might be Zhu Shenxuan who was practicing!
There are several large and small Haizi in the west of the city, with Xihaizi and Nanhaizi being the largest. Nanhaizi is in the southwest corner of Taiyuan City. Xihaizi is between Zhenwumen and Fuchengmen, and is only separated from Nanhaizi by Zhenwumen (Shuiximen).
This boy is so energetic. He trains his servants in the palace, and now he goes to the wild sea to train some people! Chang Yu was curious and quickened his pace.
Although the weather is cold and Haizi is a desolate and remote place, it is still crowded with people. The main reason is that the city gate is closed and the refugees have nowhere to go. They wander around to see the scenery, pick up rags and so on.
Before reaching Zhenwu Gate, we saw a crowd of people standing on the Haizi shore in the distance, and faint shouts could be heard in the distance.
As soon as Chang Yu and his party walked in and wanted to pass through the crowd, a well-meaning person reminded them: "Don't move forward. The people in the palace are fighting. Those who go over will be beaten."
Chang Yu and his entourage chuckled, ignored it, and walked straight over. From a distance, they saw dozens of war horses galloping back and forth next to Haizi. The people on the horses were holding long objects and attacking each other, accompanied by shouts.
Two fast horses came running in the distance, shouting: "Don't get too close to the rest of us, stay back!"
Chang Yu didn't answer, but two fast horses drove in. After a brief pause, the man on the horse jumped down and bowed, saying, "I've seen Mr. Factory."
"Is the prince here?"
"Here! Mr. Factory Master, please come!" The two men immediately led the way and announced in advance.
It turned out that they were training the royal guards! Chang Yu looked at the group of knights fighting each other on the shore of Haizi and raised his eyebrows.
It is a clear rule that the vassal king prohibits raising private soldiers, but the royal guards are a serious job, but there are also strict conditions, such as not exceeding a certain number of people.
There were no more than thirty or fifty people in front of him. Chang Yu didn't know if it exceeded the court's regulations, but he thought that at most he was just above the red line.
Servants have always been regarded as private soldiers of wealthy families. They are well-fed, clothed and equipped with good equipment. They are also trained to be exceptionally brave.
But as a palace guard, he is also brave, after all, this is what they do!
Seeing that the knights on the horse were all tall, thick, muscular, round and powerful, Chang Yu felt a sense of heroism and wanted to go up and fight with them!
"I knew that guy with the evil eyebrows had lied to us." Chang Yu was deep in thought when Chunxiang snorted beside him, making him stunned.
"Who lied to us?"
"That janitor of the palace, look at where the princess is here. Just tell me, is it possible that the princess has to say hello to a janitor when she goes out? She didn't come out from the east gate!"
Chunxiang curled his lips and counted.
Chang Yu was stunned again. Although he laughed and extended his thumb to Chunxiang, "I didn't expect this!" But he was wondering why the gatekeeper lied and said that the princess had gone elsewhere.
I thought in my mind and looked around, but I didn't see Zhu Zhi'e's figure, but I saw Zhu Shenxuan wearing soft armor and riding a horse forward majesticly.
"Why are you here, Mr. Factory?"
Zhu Shenxuan immediately stood five steps away, holding a long pole in his hand. One end of the pole was wrapped in thick cloth. He looked full of momentum.
"Come to find your sister" Chang Yu muttered.
What? Zhu Shenxuan raised his eyebrows!
"Come to see the prince for a lesson." Chang Yu looked at the long stick in his hand and smiled faintly: "How do you think your prince's martial arts are now?"
Zhu Shenxuan was startled for a moment, then laughed, holding the long stick across his chest: "I will knock you off your horse within ten moves."
"Our famous stunt is three steps and one kill." Chang Yu snorted, then waved, and immediately a palace guard came with a horse and a stick.
Seeing Chang Yu get on his horse, Chunxiang shook his head slightly and muttered: "The two braggarts got together!"
"Eunuch Chunxiang, do you mean to say that the factory master is bragging? I heard before that the factory master knocked down the young prince with one move on the South Gate Tower!" Fang San heard this and came over.
Chunxiang smiled and said nothing. Not many people in this era could beat Chang Yu in standing fighting or ground fighting, but Ma Zhan, the factory owner, hey... outsiders don't know, but the soldiers have seen it with their own eyes.
The thief general Hao Yaoqi almost killed him when he faced him!
Although he specializes in martial arts, horse fighting is Chang Yu's weakness. He also admits it, but he prefers to grow through training.
Chang Yu immediately stood up on the crossbar, and Chang Yu warned himself to learn his shame and be brave. Facing Zhu Shenxuan with a chuckle on his face, he did not dare to be careless. This little prince who he once could knock down with just a raise of his hand looked so calm on the horse at the moment.
Then I think I feel a bit confident!
Without any more nonsense, after confirming their eyes, the two men charged forward, waving the long poles in their hands at close range to stab, point, tease and chop.
After several encounters, Chang Yu felt sore all over. He was stabbed no less than five or six times by Zhu Shenxuan. He had no software to protect him and was in extreme pain.
However, although Zhu Shenxuan had the upper hand, he could not knock Chang Yu off his horse with the ten moves he said. Instead, he was stabbed by Chang Yu a few times. Although the software protected him, he lost face.
The two bragged in public, and were immediately slapped in the face, especially the dignified prince Zhu Shenxuan, who wanted to save face.
Riding their horses to fight again, the two of them got angry for a while.
