[Ming] the son of the eunuch

On the fourth day of July in the first year of Jianwen, on the second day of Zhang Xin's visit, Zhang Bing and Xie Gui led troops to surround the Yan Palace.

King Yan pretended to surrender and tied up all the guards and generals of the palace in the hall.And just when Zhang Bing and Xie Gui brought a few subordinates to check inside, the dead men of the palace rushed up and captured them both immediately.

Control the men of the two people outside the mansion, execute all the traitors in the city, and capture the Nine Gates of Peiping.Everything was done in just one day with the momentum of thunder.

On the fifth day of July, King Yan officially announced it in the name of the Qing emperor.If the imperial court does not get rid of the two treacherous ministers Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, he will raise troops to punish them according to the ancestral order, and use the Qing emperor's side.

On the sixth day, Tongzhou took the initiative to surrender.On the eighth day of the eighth day, the guards of Yan Mansion attacked Jizhou, while Zunhua and Miyun surrendered.

……

A little bit of time passed, until July 28th.King Yan's army has reached tens of thousands, and all the areas around Yanjing have surrendered to King Yan.

The news of Yan Wang Qingjun's rebellion spread to the capital, and after he realized that Yan Wang was really planning to rebel.The first thing Emperor Zhu Yunqi did was to summon Xu Zengshou, the young son of Duke Wei's mansion.

"You said that King Yan would not rebel!" Because it was found that he had sent two letters to King Yan, Zhu Yunqi's eyes were red and murderous at this moment.

"I---" I was speechless for a while, looking at the young emperor with murderous intent in his eyes, Xu Zengshou could only slowly bend down.

Seeing this scene, all the courtiers around the emperor were filled with righteous indignation. Not long after Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru and others discussed with the emperor, an imperial decree spread to the entire palace.

On August [-]th of the first year of Jianwen, there were only two days before the reunion and Mid-Autumn Festival.Xu Zengshou, the governor of the left, was punished and died in the palace to make an example.

When the news spread to Yanjing, it was the first time Chen Lin saw Yan Wang Zhu Di, who was always full of ambitions recently, suddenly depressed.

"Zhu Yunwen! Huang Zicheng! Qi Tai! Fang Xiaoru!!"

The veins in Zhu Di's hands holding the armrests under him bulged, and the evil spirit overflowed his whole body, causing everyone in the hall to kneel down involuntarily.

"Father, let me lead the army. I want to go all the way into the imperial city and tear everyone who killed my uncle into pieces!" Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County who finally stopped hiding, immediately shouted, and soon King Yan immediately agreed to his prayer.

At the beginning of the war, King Yan had only [-] people, but the soldiers and horses of the court were countless companions of King Yan.So at the beginning, the imperial court didn't take King Yan too seriously, thinking that it was only a matter of time before King Yan was defeated.

After the Yan Army defeated General Geng Bingwen in Zhending, Emperor Zhu Yunqi had to pay attention to this.He listened to Huang Zicheng's suggestion and appointed Cao Guogong Li Jinglong as the general in the hope that he could lead the army to a complete victory.

Li Jinglong naturally wanted to make some achievements with a heavy army in his hands, but although he had a high status, he had never really directed a battle.The consequence of talking on paper is that the 50 troops he leads are always retreating steadily.

At the end of December, King Yan led troops to block Li Jinglong's army, rescued Yongping, and broke through Daning.King Ning, who was kidnapped, surrendered to King Yan soon after, and the strength of the Yan army has reached 20.

See Li Jinglong retreating again and again, losing again and again.The imperial court had no choice but to order Li Jinglong to rely heavily on Sheng Yong, governor of Jinan, and Tie Xuan, governor of Shandong.

In March of the second year of Jianwen, the Yan army, which underestimated the enemy, was defeated for the first time.When surrounded by the South Army, Chen Lin almost had the feeling that he would die.

There were fewer and fewer guards around King Yan, and their eyes were fixed on him.Chen Lin, who was King Yan's personal bodyguard, hardly took his eyes off him.

When King Yan's sword suddenly broke, Zhang Yu stood up in front of King Yan.Without thinking too much, Chen Lin swung the sword in his hand.

Chen Lin's whole body was numb from Yin Hong's blood spattering, but at this moment, Chen Lin couldn't care about anything else.

Startled, Zhang Yu immediately helped King Yan up, picked up a soldier's weapon from the ground, and King Yan immediately attacked in Chen Lin's direction without thinking too much.

"Don't worry about me, the emperor has ordered, they dare not kill me!" He hurriedly left a sentence to Zhang Yu, and the king of Yan killed countless people with his sword.

Chen Lin always thought that he was a good person and a soft-hearted person.But when life is threatened, he will no longer complain about others and be indecisive.

There was only one thought alive in his mind, so at the end it was Chen Lin with red eyes.His hands were moving faster than anyone else, and there were streaks of blood everywhere he passed.

The Yan army was defeated for the first time in the first battle of Dongchang. Without Zhu Neng who came to rescue, Chen Lin almost thought he would die.

After the aged Zhang Yu escaped, he died in battle due to exhaustion.Everyone was counting the number of casualties in the barracks, and discussing what to do next.

The morale of the army was low. At this moment, Chen Lin was cleaning himself on the nearby river bank.Looking at his clean appearance in the water pattern, he suddenly knelt down and couldn't help retching.

As the army fought, Ji Gang's affairs became more and more important.It is also Chen Lin's responsibility to protect King Yan personally a long time ago.

At night, he knelt and sat under King Yan's bed like in the past, and after being suddenly pulled into a warm embrace in the middle of the night, Chen Lin did not refuse because of the day's affairs.

"Don't be afraid, everything will be fine in a while." Zhu Di, who hugged Chen Lin from behind, murmured softly when Chen Lin was almost falling asleep.

Looking down at the hands clasped across his chest, Chen Lin didn't say a word.Just after the eyelids flickered a few times, he fell asleep completely.

In the third year of Jianwen, the Yan army captured Shunde, Guangping, and Daming.Although the Yan army has repeatedly won many battles, but the imperial court has too many soldiers and horses, the war suddenly fell into a stalemate.

In May of the third year of Jianwen, King Yan received a secret report that the capital Yingtian's troops were empty.Looking at the word "Huang" in the signature, it took Chen Lin a long time to realize that this Huang was the Eunuch Huang who had helped him many times in the capital.

Thinking that Eunuch Huang had always been under his uncle's subordinates, Chen Lin was completely shocked.After two years of separation from Chen Shui, Chen Lin also thought of Chen Shuilai who was far away in the capital for the first time.

"You must escape, you must be safe!" Holding his suet jade pendant with both hands, looking at the extra tassels under the jade pendant, Chen Lin prayed silently again and again.

Because of the secret report, the army planned to cross Shandong and go straight to Yingtian.Before he left, he saw Chen Lin pinching the jade pendant, which was an eyesore, when he went to bed at night.When holding the young man in his arms, Zhu Di's eyes were deep and complicated.

The sudden silence made Chen Lin uneasy, and Chen Lin subconsciously moved his body.The next moment, His Royal Highness King Yan, who had been disciplined to him for two years, suddenly pressed him completely under his body.

"give me!"

Chen Lin's face turned pale, and looking at the boy who was getting longer and better looking under him, Zhu Di said in a hoarse voice, "Chen Lin, it's been four years, four years, I've waited long enough!"

Chen Lin was speechless, when Zhu Di moved his hands to his waist and abdomen.After Chen Lin stopped for a while, he suddenly relaxed.

It has been four years, how many four years can there be in life.Not to mention the separation and reunion of the previous two years, but the day-to-day togetherness in the past two years, and the intimate hugs every night in the past two years, he has no reason to refuse.He is not a rock, someone is always looking at him, someone is always thinking of him.This kind of feeling has always been what he prayed for, and he has no reason and doesn't want to miss it easily.

In January of the fourth year of Jianwen, the Yan army entered Shandong, bypassing Jinan where the imperial army was stationed.The Yan army broke through Dong'e, Wenshang, Xuzhou, and went straight south.

When the news reached the capital, Emperor Zhu Yunqi was completely panicked!

"Loves, who has a good strategy, who can help me block the Yan army outside?" Zhu Yunwen looked down hopefully.

But after meeting his eyes, the courtiers subconsciously lowered their heads.

Zhu Yunwen was extremely disappointed, and waved all the ministers to retreat.Looking at the empty golden palace, Zhu Yunqi raised his hand to support his head and felt that he was almost dying.

"Your Majesty, we still have Wei Guogong Xu Huizu. He had besieged Yuan soldiers with King Yan in the early years, so he must be very familiar with King Yan's military tactics. Moreover, they were all taught by Xu Da. He will definitely help the emperor turn the situation around by then! "

Just when the emperor looked decadent, Chen Shui, dressed in red, held a cup of premium Longjing and gently placed it beside him.

"Xu Huizu?" Finally thinking of this person, Zhu Yunqi couldn't help hesitating when he thought that he would no longer use this person after Xu Zengshou was bestowed on him.

My heart flustered, but after a night of deep thinking.After all, Zhu Yunwen listened to Chen Shui's suggestion, and sent someone to transfer Xu Huizu and his army back to Nanjing the next day.

Hearing that the general guarding Nanjing had become Xu Huizu, Zhu Di inevitably had a headache for a while.But at this moment, the civil servants of the imperial court suddenly impeached Xu Yaozu again, advocating a peace negotiation.

Zhu Yunwen listened to the advice of the civil servants around him, and within a few days he removed Xu Yaozu and replaced him with Li Jinglong and Gu Wang.But the imperial court wanted to cede land and discuss peace, and the imperial decree with the north and south as the boundary was quickly delivered to King Yan.

"If the emperor sends the heads of Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru to this king, I can think about it. But now, I'm sorry!"

King Yan sneered, and threw the emperor's letter of persuasion into the stove beside him.With the raging flames flying from the furnace, the battle outside became more and more fierce.And by this time, Chen Lin, who had been wounded countless times on the battlefield and had been by King Yan's side for five years.But he has already practiced the ability to not be shocked by honor or disgrace, and he didn't even show a trace of worry.

On the third day of June in the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di led his army to Kyoto.On June [-]th, when the army marched to the Jinchuan Gate in Kyoto, no one expected that Cao Guogong Li Jinglong and Gu Wang Zhu Bing would directly open the gate and kneel down.

Seeing that the general situation was over, more and more soldiers in Kyoto gave up resistance.King Yan led an army into the capital, all civil and military officials, and all the people in the city knelt beside the road.

Yan Wang signaled that Ji Gang led people to attack the palace first, and Chen Lin secretly followed the crowd into the palace.

The Beijing soldiers outside the palace did not resist, but the Jinyiwei and Yulin Army inside the palace resisted desperately.

Ji Gang led people to attack the palace, and the whole palace no longer had the prosperity of the past.There are eunuchs screaming and running everywhere, and there are guards of the imperial city who swear their allegiance to the death.

The war was extremely brutal, and the eyes were full of sticky blood splashed.Stepping on the blood-stained white marble palace road, Chen Lin frantically ran to Fengtian Hall in front.

Fengtian Hall was full of thick smoke, Chen Lin walked quickly inside, and finally couldn't help shouting: "Chen Shui!"

The wish to protect the Chen family and everyone in the Chen family has never changed.Even though he hasn't contacted him for many years, even though he hasn't seen him for many years, Chen Lin still wants to fulfill his promise to his adoptive father.

Some palace people looked at how he was holding the sword, and ran away in fright.Knowing that the people here are all powerless people, so Chen Lin put away his sword.He quickly checked every room here, flipping through every corpse that looked like Chen Shui.

"Big rewards for those who catch the emperor and his family!" The soldiers outside shouted and rushed in, everyone was already fascinated by the prosperity and wealth in front of them.

"Chen Shui, Chen Shui----"

When his voice was a little hoarse, Chen Lin's gaze was finally attracted by a red shadow behind the curtain of the pillars in the distance.

"Chen Shui run! Run! Run quickly!!!" The voice behind him grew louder, and Chen Lin immediately ran forward and grabbed Chen Shui's right hand and ran forward.

There was the sound of weapons behind his ears, and Chen Lin turned around quickly.The next moment, the short blade in Chen Sailor's hand pierced into Chen Lin's right chest without mercy.

"Why?" Chen Lin stared blankly at the weapon on his chest, his eyes were full of astonishment.

Wasn't he the one who did wrong between the two of them?Wasn't he Chen Lin who was let down between them?Apart from these grievances, isn't there still brotherhood between them?

Chen Lin clutched his chest and slowly slid to his knees on the ground.

Looking at Chen Lin's left hand that was supposed to be holding him, but now it was covered with blood.Chen Shui slowly knelt down and said, "Chen Lin, do you still remember what you said to me when you walked out of this palace?"

"..."

Chen Lin was silent, looking at his always innocent and always sad eyes.Chen Shui laughed loudly: "You asked me to wait for you, but I waited for you in the lotus pond until so late, but you never showed up. Chen Lin, you lied to me, you are sorry for me, you——you damn! I have waited for so many years, let me wishful thinking for so many years. Chen Lin, you must die, otherwise it will be hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart!"

The scene of the Lotus Pavilion in the Chen Mansion in the first year of Jianwen came to Chen Lin's mind again.His head hurt, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. Hearing the voice outside, Chen Lin could only say quickly, "Run away—"

"Flee, I'm not going anywhere but the palace--"

Chen Shui's eyes widened and he laughed wildly, and someone ran in from behind.Without thinking too much, Chen Lin quickly jumped over Chen Shui on the ground, ran out and got stuck in the middle: "There is no one here!"

"is it?"

A strange voice sounded behind him, and Chen Shui stood up from behind the pillars expressionlessly.

Before he could make a sound and walk out of the curtain the next moment, he heard the sound of weapons clashing outside.

"who are you?"

Sensing that the other party was aggressive, Chen Lin immediately said loudly.

"The person who sent you to the west!" The middle-aged soldier on the opposite side raised a big knife and slashed at him mercilessly, seeing Chen Lin clutching his shoulder.Relying on one arm to fight back with difficulty, Chen Shui couldn't help but sneer.

The opponent's big knife slashed at Chen Lin's waist, and Chen Lin dodged in embarrassment while clenching his teeth.

The moment Chen Lin bent over, a white jade pendant suddenly fell onto the bloody ground.

Walk out slowly, bend down and pick up the suet jade pendant on the ground.Looking at the blue tassels that had been touched and changed color underneath, Chen Shui's heart twitched violently.

The middle-aged soldier in front was startled immediately when he saw that there were still people.He obviously used more force, and the next moment the weapon in his hand pierced Chen Lin's abdomen.But before the opponent drew his weapon, Chen Lin immediately took the opportunity to cut off the opponent's head.

"What's this? Why do you still have it—"

Chen Shui walked over holding the jade pendant. Seeing this scene, Chen Lin immediately roared in a low voice: "I went, I went that night, I left only when I saw you and Xiaoluzi together. What's the matter now It's time----"

"My lord, there seems to be a voice inside—"

The voice of Ji Gang's bodyguard came from outside, and Chen Lin hurriedly dragged himself to close the palace door.Leaning against the red palace door, Chen Lin's eyes immediately turned red: "Go, go! Please, cousin, go. I can't save you, so please, go!"

He knew that even if he won the favor of King Yan again, he would definitely not be able to save Chen Shui, the chief eunuch in the palace.At this moment, Chen Lin could only plead bitterly.

"Xiao Luzi and I?" Chen Shui was still in a trance, just about to explain that he was just drunk at the time, and then he pushed Xiao Luzi away.But at this moment, Chen Lin, who was holding his chest and bleeding too much, was already in a trance.

Close your eyes and open them once, when you see someone coming out from behind.After dragging away the struggling Chen Shui, Chen Lin finally allowed himself to close his eyes.

"Chen Lin! Chen Lin!!" Someone yelled in his ear, but at the moment, Chen Lin, who was feeling weak all over, just wanted to have a good sleep.

"Search for me!" Ji Gang said fiercely while holding the dagger on Chen Lin's chest, looking at the hilt inlaid with various precious beads.

"My lord, this—"

A guard whispered in his ear, pointing to the head on the ground, looking at the familiar head.Ji Gang's eyes jumped, and he immediately hugged Chen Lin and whispered: "Hurry up and deal with it, and don't let anyone know!"

After giving the order, he immediately nodded quickly and began to deal with the corpses in the ground.Ji Gang, who was holding Chen Lin, heard the sound of finding the emperor in the distance, so he could only hand Chen Lin to his subordinates immediately, and then quickly ran over to check for himself.

At noon on June [-]th in the fourth year of Jianwen, King Yan finally walked into Daming's palace with a group of generals and cronies around him.

When he came to the charred corpse that had been wrapped up, even though he knew that she was a female corpse.But Zhu Di still knelt down and whispered: "Why bother, my majesty! You and I are of the same clan. This king just wants to kill those treacherous ministers who monopolize the country. Why do you do this!"

Those who knew the truth or those who didn't knew the truth knelt down, after King Yan finally did what he had to do.All the officials in the court immediately knelt down and begged King Yan to ascend the throne immediately!

"If the treacherous officials are not eliminated, how dare this king ascend the throne!" Knowing that there are still some people who disobey him, they are still hiding in the corners to curse him and prepare to resist him.

With a cold smile, Zhu Di immediately said, "Where are Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, and Fang Xiaoru?"

His subordinates escorted out the captured three people and some of their close officials, and walked down step by step. Zhu Di said sharply, "Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru, are you all guilty?"

The three of them cursed and cursed, all of them looked like they would rather die than surrender.All the princes and generals who followed Yan Wang into the palace all had ugly faces.

Just when some generals couldn't help but drew their swords to chop, Zhu Di suddenly ordered them to be temporarily detained.

Hundreds of thousands of Yan troops entered the city, and almost half of the entire palace was burned.There are a lot of things waiting for everyone to do, when everyone dispersed at night.Looking at Chen Lin lying on the dragon bed, Zhu Di, who just got the news, turned pale.

Ji Gang stepped forward and quietly whispered what he had found out. After hearing what he said, Zhu Di's eyes were frighteningly cold.

"Fortunately, it's on the right side. Fortunately, we found it early. Master, don't worry, Chen Lin will wake up!"

Ji Gang comforted in a low voice, sat on the side of the bed, and raised his hand to gently touch Chen Lin's pale face.Zhu Di's face changed again and again, and he sighed slowly: "It's my fault, I should have thought of it, and I should have protected him!"

Ji Gang stared at Chen Lin who was on the bed without saying a word. At this moment, a guard suddenly came outside to report that the princess asked to see him.

Holding Chen Linlu's exposed fingers tightly with his right hand, Zhu Di sneered when he heard the words, and then said with terrifying eyes: "Let her go back and tell her her brother's death, this king has never forgotten it. Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, Fang Xiaoru and I No one will be let go. The king who has kindness to this king will definitely remember it, and I, Zhu Di, who also offends this king, will always remember it. Ji Gang, you go in person and tell her to know how to advance and retreat, and then make an inch. Don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between husband and wife!"

When Ji Gang relayed the words, Mrs. Xu's face turned blue and red after hearing the words, and she gave Ji Gang a hard look, and Mrs. Xu immediately walked away.

On June [-], after the kings of the court and the civil and military officials repeatedly appealed to advance, and after Zhu Di declined several times in dealing with the funeral of Emperor Jianwen.Finally, on June [-]th, Zhu Di agreed to everyone's request and ascended the throne as emperor.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the Xu family took advantage of the trend to become the queen.And because the King of Yan is not close to female sex all year round, very few people in the harem become imperial concubines.

The queen of the harem dominates, and the new emperor named his younger brother Xu Zengshou the Marquis of Wuyang.So for a while, the empress who gave birth to the most princes and princesses for the emperor immediately became the object of courtship and flattery by the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty.

The Xu family was a little flustered, but after a few days, he issued several imperial decrees in succession to the emperor.After killing all the ministers who opposed him in the court, he listened to the imperial decree and the unimaginable cruel torture.After seeing her husband again, Xu's heart felt cold for no reason.

A few days later, the emperor began to reward meritorious deeds, and the family members of the princes who had been imprisoned and demoted to common people all returned to their previous territories and honors.There were four more dukes and fifteen marquises in the court, and the earl and general didn't give in.

After hearing in the harem that the little guard who finally woke up was named "Yongpinghou", Xu's face turned livid.

However, when her elder brother was suddenly claustrophobic by her husband the next day, Xu suddenly calmed down.

He secretly shed a lot of eyes for his elder brother, but after a few days, when Emperor Yongle's own husband, he registered his eldest son as the crown prince.Mrs. Xu, who had been feeling up and down for a few days, finally realized at this time that the current situation is no longer the same as before.

His husband would never take anyone into consideration again, and his flirtatious words could easily send her to the sky.Similarly, as long as he is unhappy, countless people will flow into rivers of blood and fall into the dust.

Xu, who had figured everything out, was depressed for a long time, and after a while, Xu, who had figured everything out, completely let go.

"I have been favored alone for more than ten years. All his sons were born to me, and his favorite princess was also raised by me. Now in this palace, no woman can compare to me. No woman can He is more noble than me, so I should be content."

Xu muttered about it, but she never dreamed of it.For the next 22 years, her husband wasn't his husband either.Beauties are constantly being sent in from the harem, watching the scene where they compete for power and jealousy.Thinking of the fact that no one in the harem has given birth anymore, and thinking of the young man who is always by the emperor's side, Xu's heart is always inexplicably blocked.

"If I hadn't replaced all the maids around him with eunuchs when he was 16 years old. If he had been marching and fighting outside all year round, I would have been like other women. When he came back, I would secretly ask him how he lived outside. Then today's situation, will it be different!"

I often talk to myself, thinking that time can change everything.But when he saw the man who was no longer young or aged, he still supported his husband like before.But when he knew that the two were still sitting quietly holding a book in Qianqing Palace as before, and the other was silently handling state affairs.In the end, Xu could only remain silent, silent.
