Time passed by second by second, and people outside the Yamen began to slowly become bustling. Chang Yu knew that the time was almost up and the audience was waiting.
At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door, and it turned out to be Prince Zhu Cihong.
"It's so easy to find you," Zhu Cixiang complained a little, pulling Chang Yu to the Yamen lobby, closing the door, and then took out a piece of paper.
Chang Yu took a closer look and saw that the good guys are: Duke Dingguo Xu Yunzhen, Duke Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, Marquis Song Yu of Xining, Deyang Wuhou Xue Lian, Bo Li Guozhen of Xiang City, and Commander-in-Chief Gong Yonggu!
That's great. The protagonist, the supporting actors, and the support are all in place. How can the show tonight not be wonderful? Chang Yu pawed.
There were little stars twinkling in Zhu Cixiang's eyes. This fifteen or sixteen-year-old kid has been in a state of excitement recently. He doesn't know whether it's because this thing is too exciting, or because the money is too tempting, or both. Anyway, he is fully committed: "
I’m going to post it tonight, right?”
"That's necessary." Chang Yu smiled slightly and then straightened his face: "There is something important I want to tell you."
Seeing Chang Yu's expression, Zhu Cixiang knew that the matter was serious and corrected his expression: "You can just say it."
"I have recruited a lot of people from the Guards Army to participate in the competition this time, but these people are usually on duty and always skipping work is not an option. So..."
"If they win, are you still worried about the retaliation from those old dogs?" Zhu Cixiang interrupted Chang Yu's words.
Chang Yu was startled: "They are the emperor's personal soldiers, so they shouldn't be able to retaliate, but wearing small shoes is unavoidable."
"I understand what you mean. Do you want to say that it would be best to remove some of the command jurisdiction of those old dogs?" Zhu Cixiang is indeed a good person in this regard, and he can understand everything at once.
"Is that what you mean?" Chang Yu was stunned for a moment by what he said, but he cursed in his heart, why do you always interrupt me? What I actually wanted to say was...
"You are thinking too much. These old dogs are only on duty every night. They have no command and jurisdiction over the personal guards. Naturally, the emperor's personal troops only listen to the command of my father. And to put it bluntly, they are just officers on duty. This matter is not enough.
consider".
Hey, whatever, Chang Yu sighed: "This is the best, but what I want to talk about today is actually about Beijing Camp."
"Jingying?" Zhu Cixiang was startled.
Chang Yu nodded and hummed: "The Beijing camp is the leader of the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. It guards the capital and has a heavy responsibility that cannot be ignored."
"What do you want to say?" Zhu Cixiang looked confused.
"I want to say that the glory of Jingying is in the past, and now it is just a garbage dump. I want to say that Jingying's current shortage of soldiers has reached a shocking level. I want to say that Jingying's combat power is now vulnerable. I want to say even more.
He said, please ask the prince to report to the Emperor Ming to conduct a strict investigation of the capital camp. This may be the last life-saving straw in the future. Another thing is to replace Li Guozhen. He is not only a waste, but may also become a stumbling block for us."
"You..." Zhu Cixang stood up in a loud voice: "How do you know the current situation in Beijing?" He sat down again: "Yes, it must be such a dream again."
Chang Yu nodded and said nothing.
"Is it really so shocking?"
"It's true! You'll find out once you check it out," Chang Yu affirmed.
"Hey, the foundation of our Ming Dynasty has deteriorated to such an extent." Zhu Cixiang's expression was extremely depressed, and the excitement just now had long since disappeared.
"It may not be too late to remedy the situation. At least there is a glimmer of hope." Chang Yu actually patted him on the shoulder. This young man had really endured too much.
"I will go to see my father early tomorrow morning to explain this matter and how Li Guozhen, that old dog, my father has already planned to dismiss him, but I haven't found an excuse yet."
Chang Yu nodded: "After checking, I have an excuse. We will discuss this matter tomorrow. Let's make some money and be happy tonight."
Zhu Cixiang looked up at him with a smile on his face.
It was getting late at night, and the fodder warehouse in Caolanchang was crowded with nearly a thousand people. It was noisy and noisy. The VIP seats next to the ring were also full. The nobles on duty and the eunuchs in power had already entered and were greeting each other.
call.
As expected by Chang Yu, the nobles on duty would not be able to sit still once the palace closed. No one wanted to take a boring nap in the duty room, let alone wander outside in the biting cold wind.
Since yesterday, Chongzhen suddenly issued an order that there must be more than five nobles on duty in the imperial city at night. They were a little surprised at first, but they thought about the advantages of having more people on duty together. It is better to brag and chatter than to endure it alone.
.
Three people are in a crowd, and people love to be lively. The fact that there is a boxing match in the palace is almost an open secret among the nobles. For example, Li Guozhen lost to the prince thousands of taels of silver, for example, Zhu Chunchen won more than 3,000 taels of silver in one night, such as
Xue Lian won several hundred dollars, which aroused people's curiosity. The worst thing they could do was not bet and go watch the excitement. Besides, they didn't care if they lost a little money. It would be better if they won. Anyway, they just wanted to do it.
Have fun passing the time.
No, the nobles on duty tonight were already itching. Under the secret suggestion of Gong Yonggu, and the coaxing of Xue Lian and Zhu Chunchen, who was not sure whether it was because of the suggestion, Xu Yunzhen, who was originally a little hypocritical, also readily agreed to go together early.
Entered the venue.
The treatment at the VIP table is just different. There are plenty of drinks and snacks. The tea is good tea and the wine is warm wine. There are several extraordinary and beautiful palace maids who serve personally, which makes several nobles very happy. People like Li Guozhen,
He even secretly touched the palace maid's little hand with a look of lust on his face.
"Hey, the prince is here." Just as the nobles and the eunuchs were chatting and waiting for the opening ceremony, a big rice dumpling entered the VIP area. The sharp-eyed Li Guozhen was the first to notice it. Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted without any nervousness at all.
He was embarrassed, and even laughed secretly in his heart. The prince was indeed a child, and he was very playful. He was definitely a gambler, but he ignored that he was not the same.
"The prince looks good today, and he will be very lucky later," Zhu Chunchen said with a smile, stroking his short beard. This guy won more than three thousand taels yesterday and is so happy that he still can't close his mouth.
Zhu Cixiang secretly cursed in his heart, I am wrapped up so tightly and you can see how good I look. Damn it, but he said: "Thank you for the good advice of Duke Cheng. If you don't want to be prosperous today, just let me return to my roots."
,Ahem, those who lost in the first two days will be the pants."
Everyone laughed and glanced at the fact that the prince had made a lot of money today.
"Hey, Lord Dingguo is here too." Zhu Cixiang pretended to have just seen Xu Yunzhen, with a surprised look on his face: "Then I'm going to have a good time today."
"Okay, the prince is happy. I am willing to sacrifice my life to accompany you. You can play whatever you want." Xu Yunzhen smiled heartily,
Everyone sat down, Zhu Cixiang deliberately sat between Zhu Chunchen and Xu Yunzhen, followed by Gong Yonggu and Li Guozhen, followed by Song Yude and Xue Lian, Wang Dehua and Wei Dahai and other powerful supervisors sitting on the left and right.
The game is about to start, and a fat and white eunuch in the stadium is talking about the rules of the game in a eloquent manner. This is also the quietest time in the stadium.
When the fat white eunuch emphasized that the new rules of the challenge were that personal guards were not allowed to participate in the challenge, Zhu Chunchen showed a proud smile. This guy is really smart. When he watched the game for the first time yesterday, he discovered the loopholes in the competition system and made a lot of money.
Nowadays, the competition system has changed. Guards can participate, but their opponents are limited to guards. Under normal circumstances, competitions with eunuchs are not accepted. After all, this is a competition for eunuchs. Everyone thinks that this new rule is understandable.
It was replenished very quickly, Zhu Chunchen sneered secretly in his heart, thinking that it must be the result of urgent discussions as Wang Dehua and others lost badly yesterday, but so what, if the game is as fair and just as you said, I will be lucky.
No one can stop it.
Hey, Zhu Chunchen, who was feeling proud in his heart, suddenly saw a familiar figure next to the ring below. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pointed towards Zhu Cixiang and said, "Prince, do you recognize that person?"
The sound was neither too loud nor too quiet, just enough to attract everyone's attention.
Zhu Cixiang took a quick look and exclaimed: "Of course I know him. This person is known as the number one eunuch in the palace, and even his personal guards have been defeated by him one after another. I have seen him fight with my own eyes, and that time he defeated Uncle Xiangcheng."
There's a lot of money." He said, looking back at Li Guozhen and laughing.
Li Guozhen agreed with a wry smile: "It is indeed a tough hand, but claiming to be the best in the palace is too exaggerated. There are countless personal guards who can defeat him, but they are just not allowed to enter."
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. After all, the emperor had tens of thousands of troops and there were many brave men. As expected, no one could defeat Chang Yu. How could it be possible?
"This guy is arrogant and arrogant. He will suffer big losses sooner or later if he is so impetuous." Zhu Chunchen and Chang Yu had a close relationship, so naturally they didn't like him, so he interjected coldly.
"Generally capable people are more arrogant," Zhu Cixi said lightly, "If there are any capable people under Duke Cheng, we can come and give him a fight, so that we can open our eyes and make some money at the same time."
"What the prince said is absolutely true," others agreed.
Zhu Chunchen stroked his beard and smiled to himself: "I really have this intention, and I am looking for a suitable candidate. Sooner or later I will have a fight with this guy."
While speaking, Chang Yu had already walked to the VIP area and slowly climbed up the stairs. Seeing that there were several eunuchs following him, Zhu Chunchen couldn't help but sneer and hum: "The score is not small."
Chang Yu walked straight up to the VIP table. Several distinguished guests immediately put away their smiles and sat downright, without even looking at him. Their attitude was very clear. It was obvious that this person was either a powerful person or a powerful supervisor. You, even the oldest one, were here to show off.
However, the prince who had the largest seat at the table did not say anything. Instead, all the eunuchs stood up and greeted him warmly. Chang Yu nodded and walked up to Zhu Cixiang: "I would like to say hello to the prince."
Zhu Cixiang nodded slightly: "Aren't you going to play today?"
"It's too cold at high places. Although the younger one is interested, he has no opponent, so he shouldn't go up and throw fake punches!" Chang Yu replied humbly, and immediately snorted several times in his ears.
"That's a pity." Zhu Cixiang said expressionlessly, and then said: "You should pay tribute to these princes on duty and sit back and watch the show in peace."
"Yes" Chang Yu responded, and then bowed and bowed: "Hello, everyone." After saying that, he went to find a seat. This made several honorable men fume with their noble status. They had to sit one by one despite their status.
He greeted me with a salute, but this guy responded with a bow and a bow and looked reluctant. He seemed to be doing it because of the prince's face. This guy was really arrogant.
