Ming Dynasty: At the beginning, the house was ransacked and the ancestral temple was burned down.

Chapter 163 The Queen and Princess are all missing! Wanli was so angry that he vomited blood!
Prince Lu's Mansion.

At this time, Prince Lu's palace had become a mess.

Looking at the masked thieves running around and occasionally firing muskets into the air, not to mention the visiting princes and nobles and the servants in the mansion, even the personal guards of Prince Lu's mansion were frightened into weakness. Eggs.

Up to now, the palace has become such a mess, but the senior officials of the Ministry of War are still unaware of the riots in the city and are still enjoying the joy of the festival.

There is no way, it takes time to spread the news, and it also requires process to dispatch troops, and it also requires layer after layer of process.

King Zhu Yili of Lu didn't seem to know that by the time the Ministry of War mobilized troops and reconnoitred the day lilies were already cold.

Zhu Yixuan just transferred half of the personal guards in the mansion, which were not very large in number and of poor quality, to protect his wife and children, and the other half to the backyard to protect the queen and her son.

But he himself only took a few people with him, and after a long journey, he came to a deserted courtyard.

Here, Zhu Yili met a stranger but not a stranger, a person he had met but not seen for ten years.

"Where is the Queen Mother? Where is she?" Zhang Chonghui came up and asked directly. It could be seen that he was in a hurry now. After all, there were too many people chasing him!
"In the backyard...the place with the most guards." Zhu Yirui also answered directly, but the guilt in his eyes was difficult to conceal.

Rather than letting the biological mother take this risk, it is better to let my sister-in-law and niece take this risk!
"I'm sorry, Sister-in-law, don't blame me, I didn't mean it!" Zhu Yili clasped his hands together, as if he was repenting to the Buddha, thinking: "Although I meant it, I was forced to do it!"

As things have developed now, it is obvious that this is different from what was originally 'negotiated', and the difference is quite large.

As expected, His Majesty the Emperor didn't want to hear this useless explanation, so he even scolded Chen Ju!
Zhu Yijun didn't want to hear how chaotic the situation was at that time! I don't want to worry about why that group of 'criminals' have firearms in their hands!
All he knows now is that his wife and daughter are missing! Moreover, the capital's military strength is really useless to an outrageous degree!

Chen Ju's explanation was so pale. Even though he had always known that explanations were the most useless words after a problem occurred, he still explained it.

"What?!" When Zhu Yixuan, the daughter slave, heard that his heart was missing, he became furious and yelled:
"A bunch of rubbish! Why don't you go find it quickly! Something unexpected happened to the governor! You all must die!"

In addition, there were thousands of people who were frightened at that time, and the officers and soldiers did not dare to harm innocent people. In this panic, the officers and soldiers' defense line was broken open by the crowd..."

"When I arrested people just now, I heard that the empress and princess of the Ming Dynasty emperor are here! Why don't we take this opportunity to capture them all! So that we can ask for rewards from General Tokugawa and the emperor?"

The man was obviously hesitant and said hesitantly: "But the military advisor said, it is enough to arrest only one empress dowager and that boy, don't let anything happen..."

"Baga!" Zhang Chonghui slapped the man on the forehead and scolded:
"Which is more important, the military advisor, a foreigner! Or is it more important, the Tokugawa generals and the emperor? I think the Ming Dynasty had promised to marry the princess to the emperor, but in the end they broke their promise!
Today I have to take the princess of the Ming Dynasty back to the emperor no matter what! Not to mention the Queen of the Ming Dynasty! The Tokugawa generals could also use her to threaten the Ming emperor! "

After that, Zhang Chonghui turned around and left, but no one knew the direction he was going.

On the other side, Zhang Chonghui, who had "retired after his success," had already changed back to his original clothes and took off the black cloth covering his face.

Zhang Chonghui immediately realized something was wrong and asked: "What's going on? Didn't you invite the Queen Mother?"

On the other side, Zhang Chonghui changed his clothes and covered his face with black cloth like the gangsters holding guns. And he was carrying a sack on his shoulder, which seemed to contain a person.

Zhang Chonghui knew that the other party had mistaken him for an accomplice, so he nodded and said: "Yes! I have captured the Empress Dowager!"

However, faced with such a difficult situation, Zhang Chonghui suddenly calmed down. He smiled darkly and strangely, raised his hand and patted Zhu Yiliu heavily on the shoulder, and said quietly:
"Your Highness, this is your choice!"

It’s too late to think so much! It’s important to take credit!

And at this moment, not only relatives, friends and guests were in the front hall, but his wife and daughter were also in the front hall.

Just when Zhu Yili was immersed in 'confession', a piece of news came that made him explode!
"Something bad has happened, Your Highness! The princess is missing!"

But he was also a little strange, why were the people in the sack so fluffy? The Queen Mother wears so much? Still short and round?
Also, who was that companion just now? The voice sounds like...it should be Jushiro Inoue, right?

I don’t know who brought the wind, but this group of Japanese people actually poured into the backyard one after another!
Their goal is also very direct, they are the 'two most noble' people in the backyard!

Although Zhu Yili was exposed, he felt a little guilty, but it was only a little bit. He soon said:
"Although there is no queen mother! But there is a queen! By the way! There is also a princess!"

It was already the time of his birth, and Emperor Wanli Zhu Yijun was about to go to bed, but he didn't expect that such a big bad news would come in the middle of the night!
"So many officers and soldiers are guarding outside Prince Lu's Mansion! How come the queen and princess are missing! Are all the Ming Dynasty troops stationed in the imperial city just paper trash?"

However, I don't know if it's 'retribution'.

……

But after all, Zhu Yili was still reluctant to let his biological mother take risks. After some entanglement, he finally used some means to let his completely unaware baby daughter Zhu Xuanyao trick the queen and her daughter who just wanted to leave the palace to join in the fun. 'Come on.

Obviously, Zhu Yili disrupted this plan because of his "self-interest"! In other words, he is causing trouble!

For a plan that has been negotiated for a long time, if the most critical link goes wrong, it often means that the final result will not be as good as before, or even the whole thing may collapse!

When the news reached the Qianqing Palace, the Ministry of War hastily prepared a plan for troop deployment and reconnaissance, and it had just been submitted to the Supervisor of Ceremonies for approval!
Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yijun was really angry. As a majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty, his wife and children disappeared during a festival! Why doesn't this make him angry?
"Back to your lord..." Chen Ju knelt on the ground. It could be seen from his trembling body that he was afraid. However, no matter how scared he was, he still had to answer:
“At that time, the rebel group in the crowd had firecrackers in their hands, and the people were frightened out of their wits. They didn’t know what to do, so they just ran around in all directions.

But not long after he showed his face, he was kidnapped by several Japanese people as a matter of course.

……

Nonsense, Po Tian's wealth is just ahead, and he has to get a share of it no matter what!

"What use can a queen and a princess do!" Zhang Chonghui's face suddenly turned cold: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother promised, do you know you broke your promise!"

Yes, Zhu Yili originally promised Zhang Chonghui that the person invited to watch the fireworks tonight should be Queen Mother Li.

……

"Jushiro Inoue! Wait for me!"

Zhu Yili no longer cared about where Zhang Chonghui was going. He hurried to the front hall. He was the master of the palace and had to show his face in front of everyone.

As Zhang Chonghui spoke, he threw the sack on his shoulder to the other party, and ran quickly to the backyard, as if he was eager to grab the credit!
Looking at the back of his 'companion' leaving, the Japanese man suddenly realized. After a brief thought, he gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and ran towards the backyard!

Faced with this question, Zhu Yili simply put on a posture of 'What can you do to me?' He waved his sleeves and said: "Anyway, there are only these two people, do you like me or not?"

"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly! Now we just need to catch that kid!" The man said and was about to go find his companions, but was stopped by Zhang Chonghui!
"Wait a minute, that kid is not in a hurry, we will catch him sooner or later anyway." Zhang Chonghui said in fluent Japanese:

Suddenly, a man with the same black cloth covering his face rushed towards him and asked in Japanese: "You caught someone so quickly?"

"Get lost! If we can't find the queen and princess before dawn! Don't come back at all!"

Zhu Yijun shouted angrily!
Chen Ju rolled and crawled out of the palace. However, when he reached the entrance of the palace, he was stopped by the angry Emperor behind him!
"Let King Lu come into the palace! I haven't settled the score with him yet!"

Zhu Yijun is very angry now. After all, the queen and princess were lost in Prince Lu's Mansion! Regardless of whether it's none of King Lu's business, he can't spare this stinky brother!

"Go back to your Majesty." Chen Ju replied carefully: "His Royal Highness Prince Lu personally took the soldiers of the palace and went out to look for someone overnight... The little princess... was also lost..."

At this time, Zhu Yijun, who had originally suspected that his younger brother Zhu Yiliu had tampered with it, fell silent, and most of his original suspicions disappeared in an instant.

"Forget it, don't ask him to come." Zhu Yijun sighed.

Yes, Zhu Yijun suspected Zhu Yili, but when he heard that his brother's beloved daughter was lost, he no longer doubted it.

Tiger Poison doesn't even eat his own children, let alone the daughter Zhu Xuanyao whom he, his daughter slave brother, loves the most and treasures the most.

……

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month passed like this, and the sixteenth day of the first lunar month arrived.

This is bound to be a sleepless night.

The panicked crowd had just calmed down a bit, and the appearance of a large number of imperial officers and soldiers made the night exciting again!

This time, not only did the Ministry of War send more than half of the Imperial Guards of the capital to search everywhere, but the Jinyi Guards were also ordered by Emperor Wanli to dispatch all of them!
The reason why Emperor Wanli dispatched all the imperial guards was for no other reason than that he didn't trust the trash in the capital camp!
Facts have proved that Emperor Wanli's premonition was not wrong.

After nearly two hours of searching and interrogation, Jin Yiwei has obtained a lot of important key information.

The Beijing army was all about "doing things impartially". When their superiors asked them to catch the "rebellious" criminals, they just went to catch the criminals.

In the end, no one was caught, but the people were panicked and frightened, and the prosperity of Yuanyue was smashed to pieces!
……

Luo Sigong also didn't expect that he would receive such a difficult job not long after he was reinstated. It really gave him a headache!
"Boss, the latest news is that at the end of Zishi, a group of caravans, about a hundred people, bribed the guards of Anding Gate with a lot of money and left the city overnight!

It is said that most of this group of people are not very tall and have weird accents. I guess they are the group of Japanese pirates who kidnapped the queen and princess! "The 'Second Brother in Ten Thousand Years' Chen Yin reported the latest news to his 'Boss in Ten Thousand Years' Luo Sigong.

"Have you already left Andingmen at the end of Zi Shi?" Luo Sigong frowned immediately: "Why so fast?"

"I think this group of Japanese pirates must have planned their escape route a long time ago, so they were able to escape quickly." Chen Yin guessed.

Of course Luo Sigong knew that this was a long-planned kidnapping, but he always felt that something was wrong, but he immediately made up his mind: "Hurry up and let someone chase you!"

Chen Ju was a little embarrassed, but he still agreed.

After all, the group of people had already left Anding Gate at the end of the day, and it was almost dawn. According to this pace, the group of gangsters would have already left the outer city and would not be able to catch up.

Luo Sigong naturally knew that he might not be able to catch up, but even if he couldn't catch up, he still had to catch up!
only……

"Tell the Ministry of War of this news and ask them to send troops to pursue it. We only need to send two of our people to be responsible for assisting."

Luo Sigong's meaning is obvious. He wants the credit, but he doesn't want to give out the coolies. After all, the number of Jin Yiwei is limited!

……

For a time, almost everyone focused their attention on this group of 'weird caravans' leaving the city from the Anding Gate in the north!

After all, after investigation, everyone knew that the Japanese were the ones causing trouble on Shangyuan Night, so they almost all concluded that this group of Japanese either fled all the way to the north or ran to the east!
As for the south, it is almost impossible, because the south is heavily defended. There is really no need to escape from the south, and it is impossible to escape!

As for Xi Mian, there is no need. After all, for the Japanese, the most important thing right now is to escape! Running to the west is equivalent to circling most of the capital. This is completely courting death!

Luo Sigong seems to have forgotten the lesson learned from the last demon book case, that is - if the starting point is wrong, then everything will be wrong next time!

Facts have proved that Luo Sigong has not forgotten. However, by the time he remembered this lesson, it was already dark!

It was only at this moment that Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, learned the news that Zhang Chonghui had also been kidnapped!

At the same time, outside the Xizhi Gate on the west side of the outer city, four Japanese men dressed as farmers were pushing four carts of hay and stopped at the foot of a mountain.

Here, the four met their 'strategist'.

"Why are there four people? Isn't it two?"

Looking at the four sacks containing people, Zhang Yunxiu frowned, unhappy that these Japanese slaves did not listen to his prior arrangements.

"The military advisor doesn't know something!" A Japanese named 'Meichuan Yaoku' came out and said:

"These other two are the queen and princess of the Ming Dynasty! If we take them back and present them to General Tokugawa and the Emperor, they will definitely..."

"Nonsense!" Zhang Yunxiu immediately cut off Mei Chuanyaoku's words and cursed for a while:

"That's stupid! You kidnapped the queen and princess of the Ming Dynasty! Do you think the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would let it go?

There is an old saying among the Han people that a dog will jump over the wall when it is anxious! What's more, he still has an entire Ming Dynasty emperor! Do you want to force him to send all the Ming troops to fight against Japan?

General Tokugawa was not that idiot Toyotomi Hideyoshi! He never wanted to be at odds with the Ming Dynasty! The purpose of kidnapping the Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty this time was just to pour this basin of "dirty water" on Toyotomi Hideyoshi!

Well done to you, you not only tied up the empress and princess of the Ming Dynasty emperor out of trouble! He actually wanted to take them back! You have eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard! Do you want to put the Tokugawa Shogun and the Emperor in danger? "

"I..." Umekawa Yauku was speechless and hurriedly said, "It was Inoue Jūshirō's idea! Not me!"

"Jushiro Inoue?" Zhang Yunxiu seemed to have noticed something was wrong. He asked, "Where are the others?"

Meichuan Yaoku hurriedly replied: "He and the other two brothers stayed behind to deal with the aftermath! I think they will follow soon!"

This time, Zhang Yunxiu didn't say anything. He just looked back and forth at the four sacks of different shapes and sizes and fell into thinking.

wrong! Something must have happened here!
"Military advisor, what should we do?" Meichuan Yauku said anxiously: "We have already kidnapped people, how about... let's release the Ming Dynasty Queen and Ming Dynasty Princess?"

"It doesn't mean much now whether to let it go or not." Zhang Yunxiu said while thinking:
"At this point, we can only blame Toyotomi Hideyoshi for kidnapping the Empress and Princess of the Ming Dynasty."

Umekawa Yauku nodded in agreement: "Yes! Yes! It was all done by Toyotomi Hideyoshi's people! It was all their people!"

Zhang Yunxiu ignored Meichuan Yauku's excited reaction and just said to himself: "Kobayakawa and the others should have left the Anding Gate long ago. I think they are safe now."

"What about us?" Umekawa Yaku suddenly became anxious when he heard this. Kobayakawa and the other 'big troops' are safe, but what about them?
"What you should consider now is how to explain to General Tokugawa! If General Tokugawa knows that you disobey my orders and make decisions without authorization, you will commit suicide by committing seppuku!" Zhang Yunxiu threatened.

As soon as they heard the word 'harassment', Meichuan Yaoku and the remaining three people beside him started talking good words and begging Zhang Yunxiu to let them go this time.

Facts have proved that the military adviser is still a military adviser, and the military adviser finally saw them as pitiful and let them go.

only……

"Forget it, I'll spare you this time." Zhang Yunxiu showed mercy, but he said again:
"I don't have to complain to the general. But...you'd better make sure that no one else complains to the general!"

Meichuan Yaoku and others knew almost instantly who the 'other person' mentioned by the military advisor was!
Who else could be the 'culprit' besides 'Jushiro Inoue'?
"Okay, you can handle it yourself." After Zhang Yunxiu said that, he came to the largest of the four sacks, patted it, and pushed it, as if he was inspecting the goods.

Umekawa Yauku and others did not pay attention to this matter, and turned around to discuss how to 'deal' with Inoue Jushiro!

……

at the same time.

Emperor Wanli, who stayed up all night in the Qianqing Palace, only got some clues that "sounded useful" and the news that Zhang Chonghui had also been kidnapped!

At this time, Chen Ju was reporting the situation to His Majesty the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, according to the person we sent to monitor Zhang Chonghui, at first there was only one person holding a knife who wanted to kill Zhang Chonghui, but that person couldn't beat Zhang Chonghui!
It was at that time that the group of Japanese pirates armed with guns suddenly started a riot and chased Zhang Chonghui all the way to Prince Lu's Mansion.

At first it seemed that their target was only Zhang Chonghui, but then for some unknown reason, they suddenly targeted the empress and the princess who were resting in the backyard, and ran there like a bunch of people!
In this chaos, the palace's personal soldiers were useless because they had not fought for many years, so... so the queen and the princess were kidnapped by them... In short, Zhang Chonghui was also kidnapped in the end. "

Zhu Yijun had not slept all night. After hearing the news, he was even more furious and said angrily:

"Where are the Japanese pirates! Haven't you even caught a single criminal!?"

"Go back to your Majesty! I've caught you!" Chen Ju hurriedly replied:
"The person who first assassinated Zhang Chonghui was caught, but he... He said that he was sent by Ge Lao Shen to assassinate Zhang Chonghui... He also said that he only had two accomplices! He didn't know those Japanese pirates!

As for the Japanese pirates, Jin Yiwei also caught two, but those two were like lunatics! Seeing that they couldn't escape, they actually... actually drew out their knives immediately! Committed seppuku! "

"Ha... Commit seppuku..." Zhu Yijun was so angry that he was almost smoking, and said in anguish, "There is no progress at all in co-writing..."

At this point, Zhu Yijun no longer has the mind to care about Zhang Chonghui or not.

Although Zhu Yijun initially suspected that this matter might be related to Zhang Chonghui, Jin Yiwei was monitoring Zhang Chonghui all day long, and the other party had no clone, so it was impossible for him to do these things!

At this moment, all Zhu Yijun could think about was his queen and princess.

The majestic mother of a country and the current princess just disappeared out of thin air for a long time and a night.

Even though the court tried its best to cover up this 'disgraceful' matter, the rumors still got out...

In this feudal era, it was difficult for a woman to step out of the house, let alone disappear for such a long time.

Who knows what a weak woman will go through during this time?
Zhu Yijun didn't dare to think about what his wife and children would go through, and he didn't know whether he really felt sorry for his wife and children or was just because of his superior self-esteem. He really wanted to cry.

His Majesty the Emperor was so angry that he fell ill. Every time he took a breath, the tendons on his forehead would twitch and hurt, which was very painful.

Facts have proven that when you are unlucky, drinking cold water can clog your teeth.

Just when Zhu Yijun had a headache, a toothache, a pain in his feet, and his whole body hurt from anger, a piece of 'bad news' came, which made him so angry that he coughed up blood!

""Continued Worry and Risk Hong Discussion"?"

"The demon book...why is it here again!?"
