Chapter 62 Sweet

Liu Rushi and Ruan Lizhen in Nanjing also smelled the strong smell of conspiracy.

Although they were not sure what the Qing army was planning so far, and they could only get in touch with little information about the periphery of this big conspiracy, they already understood that the Qing army in Jiangnan could not defeat King Liu Yongxi of Yue on the front, so they could only take the risk of the enemy's way.

But this is exactly the most worrying issue between Liu Rushi and Ruan Lizhen. ZTE's career has reached its most critical moment. If there is any accident at this time, ZTE's career will definitely give them a regret for the rest of their lives.

It’s a pity that they could only find a little information, so Liu Rushi was a little anxious: “Men are unable to count on them at the critical moment. I asked him to find out the matter clearly, but when he saw the Qing Dynasty officials, he was like a mouse or a cat, and he couldn’t find out any important news. How could I think that Qian Qianyi was a strange man in the world!”

Liu Rushi and Qian Qianyi have not yet learned much important news, and it is even more difficult for Ruan Lizhen to be under house arrest in Chengyi Bo Mansion.

Although there are many guests of the sincerity Bo Mansion, Ruan Lizhen has limited information to be exposed, and this is the highest secret that Manchu nobles are not allowed to disclose, so Ruan Lizhen has not found anything yet.

Ruan Lizhen and Liu Rushi originally placed their hopes on Ruan Dacheng, but they did not expect that Ruan Dacheng was an extremely heartless person. Although he had arrived in Nanjing and was particularly active in front of Duoduo, Haoge and Hong Chengchou, he became a celebrity in front of Manchu nobles, but he never wanted to visit his daughter under house arrest. The reason was naturally the special relationship between Ruan Lizhen and Liu Yongxi, so Ruan Lizhen could not find any opportunity.

But since Ruan Dacheng was so heartless, Ruan Lizhen still thought of a solution: "It seems that we have to mess up the water first. My father just offered a lot of ideas to King Yu and King Su to pacify Zhejiang. We can help me to help me get a ten-stage plan for pacifying Zhejiang. As long as the water is mixed up, it will be convenient for us to inquire about the news!"

Although Ruan Dacheng is only good at talking about war on paper, he is indeed a top expert on paper. Otherwise, he would not have become the Minister of War in the Hongguang Dynasty. After the demise of the Hongguang Dynasty, he still persuaded Fang Guoan alone with his perfect tongue. He is now in Duoduo, and Haoge and Hong Chengchou are naturally very generous.

However, Ruan Dacheng's conspiracy against Yue Ming was always secret. Everyone did not know how many ruthless tricks Ruan Dacheng had done. Now Ruan Lizhen has made up her mind to make Ruan Dacheng become popular.

Liu Rushi thought about it and thought it was a good idea: "This is a good idea. We have to make this a hot topic in the city. At that time, Qian Qianyi can give it a boost!"

If Liu Rushi had been in the past, he could only rely on Qian Qianyi's ability to move. However, due to Liu Yongxi's high praise of her and the special friendship between her and Zhu Meier and Li Xiangjun, the intelligence system of the Yueming court provided all the help within her ability. She had become an important figure in the underground anti-Qing forces in Nanjing. As long as she gave her order, many people would execute her orders.

Therefore, Liu Rushi had made up his mind to find out the truth behind this matter, and not let down the Han family down or the little sincere man's expectations for him.

She felt a feeling of cheering in her heart, as if she had made up her mind to chase Qian Qianyi that year.

Liu Yongxi also smelled a trace of conspiracy. He handed Li Benshen’s letter to Mrs. Xing: “Li Benshen really found a difficult problem for me. It’s not true, nor is it true if I don’t believe it!”

Mrs. Xing's face was full of sweet smiles: "Since you believe it is not true, and you don't believe it is not true, then choose not to believe it!"

During this period, except for being promoted to King of Yue, Liu Yongxi spent most of his time in Huzhou. This was an extremely rare and happy time for Mrs. Xing.

Hangzhou, the provincial capital, was the political center of the Ming Dynasty, so the Empress and Princess of the Supervisor stayed in Hangzhou for most of the time to deal with government affairs. They would occasionally come to Huzhou to comfort the soldiers and gather with Liu Yongxi. Most of the time, only Mrs. Xing and Li Xiangjun were around Liu Yongxi, and Li Xiangjun was particularly promising, so Mrs. Xing was favored only during this period.

It is precisely because of this rare happy time that Mrs. Xing is now more sweet than Hua Jiao, and she speaks with a hint of sweetness: "Although we have been fighting for Li Benshen, we still win repeatedly without Li Benshen's support. Li Benshen must do his best for the court first, first of all, be sincere!"

Although Li Benshen is Gao Jie's nephew and has some relatives with Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Xing has little affection for Li Benshen. When she was in Gao Jie's camp, Li Benshen gave her the least face among the arrogant generals, and often made her unable to get out of the stage. When fighting for Gao Jie's inheritance, Li Benshen made the most furious thing, and he wanted to tear Mrs. Xing.

Since there is such a past, Mrs. Xing naturally would not say good things to Li Benshen, but Liu Yongxi became entangled: "The reason why I think it is neither true nor not true is because Li Benshen is too sincere!"

After reading the letter, Mrs. Xing also sneered: "Li Benshen is indeed too sincere. There are thousands of Gao Jie generals in Liyang City. I am moved, but I always feel that Li Benshen's words are so beautiful!"

According to Li Benshen's belief, Li Benshen has now recovered his freedom and was sent by Duoduo to control Liyang. Li Benshen, who had experienced a period of house arrest for no reason, has made up his mind to lead the troops and the entire Liyang city to the Yueming Dynasty.

But now he only has a few hundred personal soldiers in Liyang, but the main force of the defenders is Li Chengdong and Gao Jinku. In addition, there are hundreds of Eight Banners Army responsible for monitoring, so he hopes that Liu Yongxi can send troops to respond to the Liyang uprising.

For Liu Yongxi, Liyang City and the thousands of Gao Jie's old subordinates in the city were irresistible temptations. Once Li Benshen invaded, the Ming army would clearly have an advantage, but Liu Yongxi deeply agreed with the so-called "Li Benshen's words are too beautiful": "And Li Benshen comes here, it is not actually a good thing!"

Mrs. Xing knew what Liu Yongxi meant. Li Benshen had the strongest and most experienced seniority in Gao Jie's old generals. Liu Yongxi was in a sense an outsider who fell from the sky. Fortunately, Duoduo solved more than a dozen Gao Jie's old generals, including Yang Chengzu and Guo Hu. Moreover, Xing Shengping and Chen Yuan were not big names in Gao Jie's camp, which forced Gao Jie's old subordinates to admit that Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing were their new lords.

However, the situation is different when Li Benshen comes over. Although there is no question of digging Liu Yongxi's corner, many Gao Jie's old subordinates will unknowingly move closer to Li Benshen, and even form a "Li Benshen clan". This is a worrying issue. Therefore, Mrs. Xing fully agrees with Liu Yongxi's view: "You must think twice about this matter and make it clear before you can start. As long as Ajige does not make a big move eastward, time will be with us!"

Liu Yongxi nodded, and Mrs. Xing said again: "Even if Ajige is moving eastward, it doesn't matter. I have already contacted Huguang. I didn't expect that we wanted to contact Huguang, and Huguang also wanted to contact us. He Tengjiao didn't take them seriously at all. He took advantage of the opportunity to recruit people to completely eliminate them, and there was also an unexpected surprise."

Liu Yongxi asked casually: "What unexpected surprise?"

The smile on Mrs. Xing's face became heavier and heavier: "You will know then!"

Liu Yongxi was in a good mood: "That's good, but not only did he have to contact Huguang, but he also had to use all these hundreds of thousands of thieves!"

Although the remaining troops of the Dashun Army did not play a role in the entire history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the main reason was that the remaining troops of the Dashun Army did not have a unified leadership core, and the one who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty until the last moment was the remaining troops of the Dashun Army. If the Dashun Army could be incorporated into the Yueming system, the Zhongxing cause would be at least half of it.

Even if the Dashun Army cannot be included in the Yueming system, as long as they can attack Jingzhou like the Zhongzhen Camp to complete the task of restraining Ajige's troops, it will be a wonderful achievement.

But at this moment, Ajige's troops had already crossed Jiujiang and rushed towards Anqing. Although there were several rebel troops and rebel troops along the way, they suffered severe damage even if they were not annihilated by the entire army under the pressure of the tide of the Qing army.

But the greatest pressure was still under the army of the governor of Jiangxi, Wang Sunfan. Wang Sunfan had high hopes for this attack on the Yangtze River and even planned to conquer Nanchang and restore the entire province. However, he never expected that Ajige would sweep upstream. Although the Ming army had the intelligence advantage on the battlefield in Jiangxi, it began to retreat immediately, but this was also the biggest blow that Wang Sunfan suffered since sending troops.

Not only did the dozen counties that the Ming army finally captured were all lost, but they were even forced to withdraw from the three counties that had been under the control of the Ming army before gaining a foothold. Moreover, in this series of operations, the Ming army in Jiangxi lost nearly 2,000 people, and many veterans who followed Wang Sunfan into Jiangxi, which made Wang Sunfan feel extremely distressed.

Fortunately, the Jinsheng's troops of Huizhou Prefecture had already submitted a letter to Fengtu, Zhejiang, so after learning that Ajige was advancing eastward, nearly a thousand people were sent to help. In addition, Ajige's main target was not Wang Sunfan, so he could hold back his feet. He could only say to Jiang Tianyi who came to support him: "Ajige's army is vast, with at least 100,000 people. Let Jin Shangshu and Tianmen Hou be careful!"

Jiang Tian nodded and said, "The Marquis of Tianmen has already opened a defense line along Xiliang Mountain!"

But Jiang Tianyi also feels like black clouds are lying on the city.

Although Xing Shengping had 20,000 troops, Jin Sheng's rebel army had tens of thousands of available troops, and Wang Sunfan had tens of thousands of troops, the real main force was only Xing Shengping's 20,000 troops. Jin Sheng and Jiang Tianyi were unsure whether Xing Shengping could block the offensive of Ajige's 100,000 troops on the line of Xiliangshan.
