Nanming Engineer

Chapter 228

Over the past few days, the guarding governor Wang Xunyun, who stayed in Chengdu, was not quite right. He always felt suspended, and an inexplicable sense of panic was always lingering, which made him restless.

He is a veteran who followed Zhang Xianzhong when he started an incident. He is loyal and unyielding. Although he is stupid, he is extremely reliable. As long as Zhang Xianzhong speaks, he will not even blink if he kills his wife and children.Therefore, the Great Western Army marched northward, leaving him alone in Chengdu, which shows Zhang Xianzhong's trust in him.

Wang Xingxing had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he also felt tremendous pressure, but he was a reckless man, so it was no problem for him to fight and go shopping, but it was difficult for him to find a way to come up with ideas.

So even though his heart was anxious, he walked around in circles in the hall and almost stepped on the bricks on the floor, but he couldn't think of a way to solve the problem in his heart.

In the end, Wang Xunxing stomped his foot and said ruthlessly, "Forget it, I have to find a scholar for such a brain-intensive matter. It's no good for my old Wang to worry about his hair here!"

After saying that, he slammed the door out, got on his horse and went straight to the inner city.

It was almost noon, the sky was clear and the sun was bright and bright. In the big city of Chengdu, Liao Liao was a walker. Occasionally, some people passed by in a hurry, with a panicked look on their faces.The doors of the shops on both sides of the long street hang high, no matter whether they are huge or small, none of them are open for business.

Seeing such a scene of a ghost town, Wang Xunyun felt even more out of breath, full of anxiety and had nowhere to vent, so he could only whip the horsewhip in his hand and gallop forward like a gallop.

Around the inner city, separated from the original Shu Palace by a long street, is a magnificent building. The former Sichuan Chief Commissioner of the Ming Dynasty, the Procuratorate and other yamen official residences are all here. The appearance is high-end and grand, and the inside is a pavilion , Elegant and luxurious, has always been the residence of the nobles.After the founding of Daxi, this land became the living place of the dignitaries of the Daxi Dynasty. There were many palaces and sedan chairs, and ordinary people were not allowed to come close.

Wang Xunyun went straight to a mansion in his head. This mansion was a bit larger and more luxurious than other mansions. Standing on the edge of the high whitewashed wall, one could see the tall buildings with hanging feet, cornices and black tiles inside. Pretty, second only to the inner courtyard of the palace.

Wang Xunyun rolled his horse off his horse in front of the two thick doors with red lacquer nails and copper bubbles. A housekeeper in a brocade robe heard the thunderous sound of horses' hooves falling in front of his house, and he had already stood outside the door and greeted him with a smile on his face. He came up, bowed and said: "The Royal Governor is here, please come in quickly."

Wang Yunjun threw the riding whip to the soldiers who were following him. As he strode towards the door, he asked in a sharp voice, "Where is your master? Are you in the mansion?"

The housekeeper slandered: "You fucking came in, dare I say you're not here?"

But he quickly replied: "Yes, yes, my lord is talking with my lord right minister in the main hall."

Wang Yunyun was overjoyed when he heard that, and said with a smile, "The Prime Minister is here too? Good! Now I've saved a journey!"

He didn't care about the butler who had to trot to keep up with him, he went straight through the second door, passed the third hall, and rushed to the main hall.

In front of the steps of the main hall, two middle-aged literati, one thin and the other fat, wearing Shumian Confucian shirts and smiling, came out of the hall in a hurry, and said with a smile: "The governor came out of his busy schedule, full of brilliance. , I am disappointed and welcome, and I hope to forgive my sins."

Wang Xunxing was a rough man, he didn't understand this set of literati's empty words, he really thought that the two of them lost the courtesy, waved his big hand, and said: "You two prime ministers, let's go in and talk."

After finishing speaking, he raised his foot and entered the hall, leaving behind the stunned fat and thin two, who looked at each other with wry smiles, shook their heads, and quickly chased in.

Fortunately, Wang Yunxun knew where he should sit, so he did not sit in the middle and high seat impudently. He picked up a chair on the right and dropped it on his butt. He said anxiously to the thin man Wang Zhaolin who came in after him: "Prime Minister Zuo, you are in the middle of a discussion." Important matter?"

Fatty Yan Xi ordered to go to the back, and when he heard this question, he panicked and almost fell to the ground with garlic under his feet, his face turned pale.

He came here today because he conspired with Wang Zhaolin to join the Qing army. Before long, Wang Yunxing barged in. The two of them were guilty of treachery, and their hearts were a little hairy. Wang Yunxing was even more frightened when he asked this question.

Wang Zhaolin's city mansion was very deep, and he didn't change his expression when he heard the words. He slowly sat down on the central seat, and first ordered the servants to bring three cups of hot tea, and then slowly said to Wang Xunyun: "The governor is right, now the emperor's personal conquest, Entrusting all affairs in the country to the real minister, the holy favor is like a mountain, and the holy family is like the sea, every time I think of it, the real minister can hardly sleep or eat, so today I invite the right minister to come over to discuss the state affairs."

These words were full of worry and gallbladder, and with Wang Zhaolin's gray beard and hair, the image of an old courtier who was loyal to Daxi Kingdom was ready to emerge, which made Yan Ximing, who sat down on the left chair tremblingly, feel ashamed, suddenly felt that Jiang was still an old man It's spicy.

Wang Xunyun slapped his thigh, and stood up screaming, his face was twisted with excitement, his flesh turned upside down and it was very scary, he shouted: "The left minister is indeed a loyal minister, the emperor knows people with his eyes, and he didn't miss it."

He grabbed Wang Zhaolin and glared: "Mr. Zuo, tell me quickly, rumors are spreading in the city, saying that the Great Western Empire is imminent and the Tatars are about to invade, which has caused instability among the people and turmoil among the military. I have also heard that, There are rebels who want to surrender the city and give my head as a lottery to the Tatars. How to defeat it? Prime Minister, please come up with a solution."

Yan Ximing's face twitched a few times, and his complexion turned even paler. It was none other than him and Wang Zhaolin who wanted to sacrifice Wang Yunyun's head. Isn't it a slap in the face for Wang Yunyun to say this in front of the two of them?
Wang Zhaolin was calm and calm, and glared at Yan Ximing who was a little flustered, then looked at Wang Xunyun kindly, and said with emotion: "What did the governor say? You and I are ministers, and we should serve the country loyally. It's a state matter, why talk about teaching or not? Sit down and let me discuss with the right minister."

Wang Yunxing felt as if he had found a treasure, so he quickly let go of his hand, and sat back "well, well".

Wang Zhaolin got up and walked to Yan Ximing's side, winked, Yan Ximing understood, stood up and followed him to the door, and listened to him.

"Prime Minister Zuo, how should we deal with this? This man is a bastard. He will be beaten and killed if he disagrees."

"Don't panic, what are you afraid of? I see his words and actions are not aimed at you or me. On the contrary, he really looks like he doesn't know how to deal with a difficult situation. Zhang Xianzhong kept him only to control the military power and make decisions. Look at us."

"Then how do you get rid of this idiot?"

"Send? No, he came at the right time. The two of us want to get rich and honor in the Qing Dynasty. This person can do something for us."

"Oh, please elaborate on the left side."

"So so, so so."

Wang Zhaolin lowered his voice and said a few words in a tone that only the two of them could hear. Yan Ximing couldn't help but nodded and showed joy.

"Haha, if this happens, there will be a pot of porridge in the city, and Zhang Xianzhong's infamy will inevitably spread far and wide. The leftist prime minister has a high opinion!"

"Shut up! Don't teach fools to find out!"

Yan Ximing quickly shut his mouth, turned around together with Wang Zhaolin, and looked at Wang Xunyun with an adulterous face, while Wang Xunyun was holding a teacup without the slightest notice, eating ugly cows and drinking the best Yunnan Pu'er , like a fool about to be sold.
