Chapter 256 Sun Chengzong's Trick
In a small room in the west city of Chang'an, an old man sat quietly in it, looking at a map of Ming Dynasty spread on the table in front of him, his eyes were full of anger.

"Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains have become like this now. The disaster of grandson's thief has become the root cause of the downfall of Ming Dynasty. It is really hard to calm down!"

The old man slapped the map in front of him and cursed angrily.

This old man is none other than the famous Sun Chengzong in history.

In the original history, he died in the 11th year of Chongzhen.

In the 11th year of Chongzhen, the slave army attacked on a large scale, and Sun Chengzong led his family to guard Gaoyang.

In the end, the city was broken and captured, and he hanged himself to death. His five sons, six grandsons, two nephews, and eight grandnephews all died in battle.

He is a loyal minister, loyal to the Ming court.

The butterfly's wings began to flap, and the trajectory of history finally changed.

In this era, Jiannu's attack on Gaoyang did not happen, and Sun Chengzong did not die in that war.

Gaoyang is located in the south of Beiping Mansion. After Sun Jie took Beiping, he swept across the whole of Beizhili, and Gaoyang was among them.

At that time, the general situation was over, Chongzhen had been captured in Beiping, and Zhu Cihong ascended the throne in Jinling.

All kinds of news came, and people in the city panicked.

Although Sun Chengzong led the soldiers and civilians in the city to resist desperately, they still couldn't stop it.

The artillery fire that covered the sky fell into the city like a torrential rain from outside the city, and the defenders on the top of the city collapsed directly.

The city gate was also blown apart in an instant, and the siege soldiers rushed into the city.

The speed was so fast that Sun Chengzong didn't have much reaction at all.

When the city was broken, Sun Chengzong wanted to die for the country, and even put a noose around his neck, but he was saved by his son.

This time is different from the past. The battle in the 11th year of Chongzhen in history is fundamentally different from this time.

In the final analysis, the establishment of slaves and the invasion of the bandits in the 11th year of Chongzhen was actually no different from ordinary invasions, but the scale was larger.

But that time, Sun Jie came with the danger of destroying the country. He had already captured Chongzhen and captured the capital.

After Sun Chengzong was rescued, he actually knew in his heart that he would fight to the death and would not have any impact on the overall situation. If he saved a glimmer of life, he might be able to counterattack the capital.

So, with this thought in mind, he lived on in the world, always ready to counterattack the capital.

In the end, he went to the south, thinking that he could do his part for Zhongxing Daming, but after the "Jinling Palace Change", the situation was chaotic, and Sun Chengzong also extinguished his desire.

The gentry and officials in the south of the Yangtze River only think about enjoying themselves, and they don't care about Daming at all.

In that kind of situation, people really don't want to stay any longer.

He wanted to recruit soldiers and horses, but after being an official for many years, his family property was not much, and all of them were destroyed in that war.

In these years, if you don't have money and food in your hands, don't even think about recruiting troops.

Later, when I heard that there was an epidemic in Beiping Mansion, I thought about going to Peiping Mansion to see if I could fish in troubled waters.

It's a pity that I can't go to Beiping Mansion at all, and the road has been blocked to death.

So I turned around and went to Chang'an City to have a look, maybe there would be other opportunities.

Sun Jie released the road ban a long time ago and abolished the 200-year-old road guide system in Ming Dynasty.

So Sun Chengzong didn't waste any effort and entered Chang'an City.

If you want better business circulation, you have to be like this.Lu Yin strictly hindered the prosperity of commerce, so he was abolished by Sun Jie.

He has only been in Chang'an for a few days, and has just found a foothold.

Recently I heard that Sun Jie's wife is going to have a baby, so I thought of this trick.

He also knows that this method is not painful or itchy, but it is always good to be able to disgust Sun Jie now.

Sun Chengzong is very old, half of his body has been buried in the soil, and he doesn't know how long he can live.

He has lived so long, which is actually enough, the only person he can't let go of is Daming.

Born in the 42nd year of Jiajing, ranked second in high school in the 32nd year of Wanli, and later became the teacher of Zhu Youxiao.

After Jiajing, Longqing, Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi and Chongzhen.

His life happened to be at the time when Daming was turning from prosperity to decline.

Watching Da Ming step by step into the quagmire, this feeling is tormenting.

Carefully put away the map of Daming, and looked towards the direction of the palace.

The hatred in his eyes almost turned into substance, "Sun Jie, the dog thief, if you can support Daming, you will become the No. 1 minister in the world. It's a pity that you are so despicable!"

This is just a joke, if you don't support Da Ming, Sun Jie's achievements will still be astonishing.

These words are extremely stupid remarks, extremely foolish and loyal.

He has already found out where Chongzhen lives, and he plans to meet him in the next few days.

There are also good generals like Cao Bianjiao, an old minister of the Ming Dynasty.

These loyal ministers and good generals, Sun Jie almost didn't kill them, first he was persuaded to surrender.

If you submit, you will use it; if you don't submit, you will be detained or demoted to civilians.

With Daming gone, Sun Jie naturally wouldn't be afraid of them making trouble.

In order to facilitate management, Sun Jie split these people up and basically did not let them have time to get together.

He took a sip of the tea on the table, rubbed his cloudy eyes, and walked out of the room.

He didn't care about his own life a long time ago, he should have lived and died with Gao Yangcheng back then, and now it's all for money.

He straightened his clothes and walked out of the room.

It is close to the commercial street, and the rent is expensive. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Living here, he thinks he is very safe.

He has fourteen sons and many more grandchildren.Some of these people died in the Battle of Gaoyang, but many survived.

The eldest son, Sun Quan, stood at the door, looked at the old father who came out, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Father!"

Carefully holding his arm.

But he was thrown away by Sun Chengzong: "The old man has been a soldier for half his life, and he is not yet old and dim. Why do you need the help of the next generation? Now that the great cause is unfinished, the big thing should be the most important thing, why bother to stick to the small details?"

Sun Quan stood there being preached, answering repeatedly.

"Take someone, go out with me to meet His Majesty!" Sun Chengzong's voice was a little softer.

Sun Quan's eyes were bright, and he hurried in.

Not long after, several young men came out.

These people are all grandchildren of Sun Chengzong, and there are seven or eight people bustling around.

There are more than these of his grandsons, there are 27 in plain text, and the real number may be even more.

After all, he is a gentry, no matter how loyal he is to the imperial court, the stinky problems of the gentry will disappear, he will have many daughters-in-law, and he will live a long life, so he will naturally have many sons and grandchildren.

Several people walked out of the door and headed east.

As soon as the few people walked out, a few "idle men" dressed in ordinary people's clothes appeared behind them.

Chang'an City was built by Sun Jie, if the source of the rumors cannot be figured out within a short period of time, it will be a waste.

These idlers did not startle the snake, but quietly followed behind Sun Chengzong and others.

Sun Chengzong and others thought they had done a good job, but they didn't know that they had already fallen into Sun Jie's trap.

Sun Jie in the palace was strolling outside the Kunning Palace, and Sun Chuanting stood in front of him.

Being able to enter this deep palace, Sun Chuanting also became Sun Jie's confidant.

"Your Majesty, I went to the Marquis of Disobedience!" Sun Chuanting said.

Disobeying Hou is the current title of Chongzhen, which means the same thing as Zhao Kuangyin's title of Li Yu back then.

"It seems that it should be an old minister of the Ming Dynasty!" Sun Jie said.

These words made Sun Chuanting's heart skip a beat. Although they didn't target him, they still made him feel uneasy.

Because he is also an old minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Jie could naturally see Sun Chuanting's nervousness, so he said: "You don't have to worry, and I'm not talking about you. However, don't startle the snake beforehand, and see his purpose.

In the shortest possible time, find out their identities and everything related to them! "

"Follow the order!" Sun Chuanting bowed his hands and accepted the order.

After making arrangements, let Sun Chuanting leave.

Sun Jie looked at the sun in the sky, thinking of ways to deal with these loyal ministers of the former Ming Dynasty.

I have to say that this old boy Chongzhen is really sorry for those loyal ministers.

"It's a pity to kill him if he doesn't use it for me. After all, he is a famous general and loyal minister in history, so he can't be like Jian Nu, who can't make a big killing.

When you have a chance in the future, throw them to America.These people were all suffocating in their hearts, and when they went there, they must have gathered their strength and returned to the Central Plains.

When the time comes to guide them along with the trend, it is bound to allow them to turn these forces into productive forces.Seriously! "

Sun Jie quickly thought of a solution.

Take a stroll with your hands behind your back in a good mood.

As for the rumors in the market, Sun Jie didn't care at all.

From ancient times to the present, there are countless such prophecies.

What "Mo Dao Shiren has one eye, stirs up the Haihe world", what "Great Chu Xing, King Chen Sheng".

Sun Jie was not angry with these prophecies, but with making fuss about his unborn child.

As a father, no one can tolerate it.

Thinking of this, he looked back at the empty Kunning Palace, and then went to the delivery room.

The due date of delivery is just a few days away, and Sun Jie's heart is also tugged accordingly.

……

Chongzhen's residence was neither good nor bad. It was two streets away from the imperial palace, a small courtyard house.

In Chang'an, where every inch of land is expensive, it is enough.

He was sitting under the vine shelf in the courtyard, holding the Daqin Daily, and looking at the current political news on it.

Although he is no longer the emperor, he still cares about current affairs. Since the Daqin Daily came out, he has subscribed every day.

Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun were busy at the side, and now there are only these two loyal eunuchs left.

Zhou looked at the children playing in the yard, and from time to time put his eyes on Chongzhen.

The sun has come to the sky, and it will be meal time soon.

Mrs. Zhou put on her apron and was about to go to the kitchen to cook.

These days, the empress also has to cook.

Chongzhen put down the newspaper in his hand, and stopped Mrs. Zhou:
"Let's go to Qinxianglou to eat today, and listen to the news from the market by the way!"

The Zhou family did not refuse, and agreed to Chongzhen.

The whole family changed their clothes and walked out of the gate like ordinary people.

That's the way it is, and that's the only way it can be.At any rate, he saved his life, and at any rate he was still alive.

The guard standing at the door followed directly.

Sun Chengzong was sitting in front of a wonton stall across the road. With his old eyes and dim eyes, he recognized Chongzhen at a glance, and he burst into tears all of a sudden.

His mouth was trembling, and he wanted to call the emperor immediately.

But seeing the guards behind Chongzhen again, he quickly stopped his voice.

Chongzhen didn't see him, passed by him, and headed towards Qin Xianglou.

Sun Chengzong hurriedly settled the bill, and led his people to follow not far behind.

It was meal time, and Qin Xianglou was buzzing with people, and Chongzhen found a seat in the hall to sit down.

Sun Chengzong chose a location next to Chongzhen, but there were people there, and he spent money to replace it.

For diners, this is a good relationship, and it is worthwhile to make money by vacating the table.

Sun Chengzong didn't dare to look directly, so he had to turn his back to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen didn't notice him, and ordered a pot of tea and some signature dishes on his own.

Eating is one purpose, and there is also the purpose of inquiring about market news.

As the largest restaurant in Chang'an City, Qinxianglou is the best place to inquire about the news of the market.

When the tea was served, Chongzhen sipped it lightly and listened carefully to the words around him.

Unknowingly, it fell on Sun Chengzong.

His brows were frowned, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

After thinking about it for a long time, I still have no clue, so I can only leave it behind.

Cao Huachun, who was standing aside, had some clues. He walked towards Sun Chengzong calmly, and looked back quietly at the crowded place.

Immediately frightened, he recognized Sun Chengzong immediately.

As an eunuch, it is my duty to remember those high officials in the dynasty.

And Sun Chengzong is the emperor's teacher, with a detached position, Cao Huachun naturally knows it.

Even though Sun Chengzong is much older now, he still can't hide it from Cao Huachun's eyes.

He returned to Chongzhen and quietly revealed Sun Chengzong's identity.

Chongzhen shook his hand holding the teacup, and the tea spilled all over.

"Why is he? What is he doing here? Could it be..."

For a moment, many thoughts came to mind.

Looking at his wife and children beside him, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and stood up hastily. Regardless of the doubtful Zhou, he led them out.

At the same time, let Cao Huachun stay here and bring back the food he ordered.

Sun Chengzong still saw Chongzhen walking out, but he was a little puzzled.

Why did you go out so soon?I haven't eaten yet!
Looking back, he happened to meet Cao Huachun behind him, and recognized him immediately.

Frowning, he walked towards Cao Huachun calmly.

"You are Eunuch Cao?"

When the two passed by, Sun Chengzong's voice drifted into Cao Huachun's ears.

Cao Huachun covered his mouth, pretended to cough, and took the opportunity to say: "Someone is staring at us, this is not the place to talk!"

Another guard who came out with Chongzhen was in the hall.

When Sun Chengzong heard the words, his heart tightened, he took the opportunity to turn around, and returned to the place just now.

There are more and more people eating, and there are more and more idlers.

Cao Huachun took an opportunity and took Sun Chengzong to take the opportunity to run away.

After running all the way to the alley next to Qinxiang Building, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you old Sun Ge? Why are you still alive?" Cao Huachun expressed his doubts.

They thought they had escaped the surveillance of the guards, but they didn't realize that it was just a clear whistle.

In a gatehouse in the middle of the alley, an idler huddled inside.

Sun Chengzong looked around, saw that there was no one, and hurriedly said: "Can I not live? To make a long story short, the main purpose of my coming here is..."
