Chapter 131 found it
"Shopkeeper, the villain thinks that if we are moving under the noses of the thief, it will be too dangerous. Once discovered, there is only one way to die. So the villain thinks that we can actually pretend to surrender to the thief and deceive his trust and then we can ask about the whereabouts of Prince Fu."
"Invade the enemy? This is a good idea." Ma Mingfeng couldn't help but lit up and thought for a while and said, "This strategy is feasible. We can also take the opportunity to check the reality of the treacherous army."
Ma Mingfeng felt that this idea was pretty good, but this did not mean that it would be implemented immediately. After all, it was also a process from joining to gaining trust. This process ranged from a few days to a few dozen days. Even if it was a small one, it would probably delay the time to find the Prince Fu.
Therefore, Ma Mingfeng felt that resignation was only a strategy. He did not go to resign from the thief first, but secretly searched for the whereabouts of Prince Fu. If the resignation was discovered and investigated by the thief, it would not be too late to pretend to resign.
Ma Mingfeng knew that at this time, Prince Fu could not be in Luoyang City. It was very likely that he would hide somewhere and find a way to leave quickly when the news was low.
So Ma Mingfeng did not enter the city, and was mixed with the crowd and walked around, taking the opportunity to inquire about Prince Fu.
After inquiring, Ma Mingfeng learned that King Fu Zhu Changxun was caught in Ying'en Temple outside the city and was killed. However, the prince was not caught together, which means that the prince was not with King Fu.
Because from Luoyang, it is all about trespassing soldiers to the west, south and east, it is impossible for Prince Fu to go in these directions. In this way, there is only one place to go, that is, cross the Yellow River north and go to Huaiqing Prefecture to take refuge.
"Mengjin Wharf." Ma Mingfeng's eyes lit up. He suddenly thought of this possibility and immediately called the guards behind him to rush to Mengjin together.
In fact, at this time, Li Zicheng only killed King Fu Zhu Changxun, but no longer thought about killing King Fu's prince. Of course, if he could catch and kill him, he would naturally not refuse, but he would not spend a lot of effort to search for an ordinary royal family member, because he had more important things to do.
But Li Zicheng never expected how much trouble this young man he ignored would bring to her in the future?
Specifically, it was not the trouble caused to him by this young man, but the young man later became a banner of the Ming Empire. It was this banner that brought together many forces from the Ming Dynasty. It was this banner that allowed Ma Mingfeng and others to reorganize their forces and turn the tide.
At this time, Zhu Yousong, the prince of Fu, had no idea that he would become the leader of an empire in the future and witnessed the Ming Empire's survival to revival. Because his father was killed, the royal palace was robbed, and the city was occupied, he came to Mengjin Ferry tremblingly under the servants of several old servants, feeling the fierce cold wind and looking at the frozen Yellow River with a sad face.
"My father is dead, his home has been destroyed. Where should I go in the future? Alas, why are the unlucky people always? If you want to cross the Yellow River, you will be blocking the river and climbing the Taihang Mountains with snow... It is difficult to walk, difficult to walk, and many misaligned roads. Now I am not afraid of the freezing of the Yellow River, but I am afraid that the Yellow River will not be frozen enough. It has been nearly ten days since the spring season. If the ice breaks, I will fall directly to the Yellow River to feed the turtle? I guess I have lived for thirty-two years, and I don't want to die."
Zhu Yousong shook his head and smiled bitterly, feeling deeply moved.
At this time, one of the old servants whispered: "Little Prince, do you see? There are so many people crossing the river now, and no one has fallen into the ice. I see, let's go quickly. If the thief reacts, we can't leave..."
When Zhu Yousong heard this, he was shocked all over, nodded, and then stepped on the ice, but he didn't expect the ice layer to be too slippery. Zhu Yousong's feet lightly and fell to the ice with a slight slam.
Zhu Yousong was shocked and had a meeting of slashing hands and feet. Then with the help of his old servant, he fled back to the shore. His heart was beating wildly, but he did not dare to take another step to the ice.
At this moment, a group of soldiers ran over from a distance, and a leading ferocious spirit said, "Take all these people away, and the King of Chuang is going to attack and open the seal. It is the most appropriate to use them to open the way."
There were many people fleeing at the ferry at that time, and it was estimated that there would be tens of thousands. When they heard that the treacherous people were going to catch them to fight against the government army, they were so scared that they rushed to the other side of the river.
Zhu Yousong was naturally among them, and he ran faster than others. At this time, he didn't care whether the ice was thin or thick. He would rather fall into the river and be drowned than die at the hands of a thief.
But someone shouted behind him: "Don't run, you'll shoot an arrow if you run again."
Then I heard the sound of breaking through the air, mixed with screams.
Zhu Yousong was frightened when he heard these sounds, but he did not stop and escape, but lay on the ice and crawled forward.
At this moment, there were waves of screams coming from afar, with shouts like "who" mixed in between.
Zhu Yousong ordered an old servant to see what happened. The old servant got up tremblingly, looked into the distance and said, "Little Prince, that group of bandits have been killed. It's not good. The person who killed that group of bandits has come to us..."
"What? What should I do?" Zhu Yousong was as if he was sifted, trembling, not knowing what to do. At this time, he didn't even have the courage to escape.
Not long after, a group of people rushed forward. The leader was a young man. The young man said gently to the people who crossed the river: "Don't be afraid, we are from the court, and we came here to save everyone. However, if we killed the soldiers of the treacherous soldiers, they would definitely retaliate against us, so everyone would hurry to cross the river, escape to Huaiqing Mansion, and then go to Kaifeng, where the soldiers are sophisticated, and they will definitely ensure everyone's safety."
"You, are you really from the court?" Zhu Yousong looked at the young man with a long sword hanging on his waist, and was very heroic. He stood up and couldn't help but ask.
"That's right." The young man nodded and said, "I wonder what advice does this gentleman have?"
Zhu Yousong couldn't believe the other party, so he asked, "I don't know what evidence do you have?"
But the young man took out a letter of appointment from his arms and said to Zhu Yousong: "This is my letter of appointment. Sir, please see, I am the prefect of Kaifeng Ma Luan."
Zhu Yousong took the appointment letter and looked carefully. He confirmed it was true. He immediately said to the other party: "Master Ma, save Gu quickly, Gu is the prince of Fu."
Ma Mingfeng was immediately happy when he heard this, but he didn't know whether the other party was true or not, and he felt very embarrassed.
It would be embarrassing if I took the liberty to worship wrongly, but if it is true and I don’t worship, it would seem that I am not respectful enough.
At this moment, the third brother asked, "The Lord claims to be the Prince of Fu, I don't know what evidence?"
Ma Mingfeng naturally knew that the third brother was helping him, and he was very satisfied. However, he still acted like scolding and said to the third brother: "Bold, you dare to be so ignorant of the rules."
Although Zhu Yousong was cowardly, he was not stupid. He immediately said, "Why should Ma Tai do this? The reason why this hero is suspicious is normal. I have a seal of the prince here, which can prove my identity."
Then Zhu Yousong took out the seal from his arms and handed it to Ma Mingfeng's hand.
Ma Mingfeng looked carefully and found that the seal was made of jade and was very exquisitely made, even more exquisite than his official seal. He immediately concluded that this should be true.
So Ma Mingfeng hurriedly bowed to the ground and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the prince, the emperor is late to welcome him, please forgive me."
