Chapter 228 Please thieves into the urn for the moon
It was almost dusk and the Zhenjiang Guardian was crowded with people.
There were busy servants everywhere, preparing for tonight's banquet.
In the flower hall, Zheng Jing sat on the upper head.
On the left and right sides of his lower head were Gan Hui and Zheng Kui.
"Your Highness, I didn't expect that Yu Xin would agree so simply. There would be no fraud in it, right?"
Zheng Kui said with some concern.
"Don't be afraid, this prince has made comprehensive arrangements. As long as Yu Xin enters this garrison palace, he will be unable to fly even if he has wings!"
The reason why Zheng Jing is so confident is that Yu Xin cannot bring too many soldiers to the banquet, and at most some personal soldiers are brought.
At that time, Zheng Jing could find a reason to separate these personal soldiers from outside the garrison palace. In this way, even if Yu Xin reacted and wanted to resist, he would not be able to summon people as soon as possible.
The reason is very simple. How can I bring a soldier to a banquet?
As long as Yu Xin is not stupid enough to break up, he should agree.
"Your Highness is a good plan. This guy is guilty of being a thief and will definitely not dare to have conflicts with Your Highness. As long as he enters this garrison house, the fish on the chopping board will be slaughtered by us."
Gan Hui praised and said, "At that time, His Highness the Crown Prince can throw the cup as a sign and win this beast in one fell swoop!"
Zheng Jing thought so too and nodded with satisfaction.
When the three of them were chatting, the servants reported that Qianfeng Town had recommended General Yu Xinyu had arrived.
But he insisted on bringing his men and weapons in, but was stopped by Zheng Jing's men.
Zheng Jing asked, "How many people did he bring?"
"Reporting to the prince, Yu Xin brought more than a dozen subordinates."
Zheng Jing thought there were so many, but when he learned that Yu Xin had only brought more than a dozen confidants, a stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground.
"There are only a dozen people. This prince allows him to bring people into the mansion."
"Your Highness!"
Zheng Kui and Gan Hui both advised him, "No, Your Highness. If you take someone to the banquet and find out that something is wrong, you may hurt Your Highness."
Zheng Jing shook his head and said, "Now there are five hundred swords and axes ambushed in the garrison mansion. If this prince is afraid of even a dozen people, how can he share the worries of his father in the future?"
The two felt that what Zheng Jing said was also reasonable, so they stopped insisting.
However, they repeatedly confirmed the defense in the garrison palace to ensure that there was no accident.
Because it was a dinner party, Zheng Jing ordered the singer and dancer to come to the mansion to dance to the fun. At this moment, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras is endless, and the orioles and swallows dance has a bit of Jiangnan charm.
At this time, Yu Xin led his troops to the outside of the flower hall.
They each arranged a waist knife and walked into the flower hall with great enthusiasm under Yu Xin's leadership.
Yu Xin glanced at Zheng Jing on the head, then hugged and said, "I will meet the prince."
Although he politely performed, his attitude was extremely arrogant and his words were full of disdain.
Gan Hui couldn't stand it anymore and scolded: "General Yu, is this what you are talking to His Highness the Prince?"
Zheng Kui also sneered from the side: "It's really General Yu who brings weapons to the banquet. Are you here to the banquet or kill people?"
Yu Xin said a little embarrassedly: "The two generals are really good at joking."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little nervous, the singing and dancing stopped.
Zheng Jing laughed and said, "It's okay, I don't care about these things. People come, continue playing music and dance!"
The sound of silk and bamboo orchestrals then reappeared.
"General Yu, take your seat."
Zheng Jing said lightly: "But this prince has not prepared your entourage for seating."
Yu Xin thought to himself for a while and laughed loudly, "This is natural." After that, he turned his head and ordered, "You can stand behind me."
Gan Hui thought to himself that Yu Xin had left a hand and was prepared for this time.
But it doesn't matter. Anyway, as long as he enters this garrison palace, there is no possibility of escaping.
Yu Xin lifted up his robe and sat on the seat, then raised his glass and said, "Your Highness, I will give you a glass."
After saying that, he raised his glass high, but deliberately used his sleeves to block his face while drinking.
Gan Hui thought that this guy was indeed Sima Zhao's heart. Everyone knows it.
He was afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would poison his wine. If Gan Hui was not wrong, Yu Xin would definitely not have been drinking!
In fact, His Highness the Prince did not poison the wine at all. His Highness the Prince wanted to punish the rebel Ming Zhengdian before the three armies, rather than using such a sinister trick as poisoning.
Yu Xin is obviously a gentleman who judges a gentleman by his villain's heart.
"After drinking," Yu Xin turned the wine glass towards Zheng Jing, meaning that I have already done it, please give me some advice.
Zheng Jing smiled and picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"If this prince remembers correctly, General Yu should be the army he joined in the first year of Hongguang."
Yu Shiyan was stunned. How could Zheng Jing remember so clearly?
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise and will be the army that will be recruited in the first year of Hongguang."
"At first, you were a small soldier under your father's command, but because of your bravery in combat, you were gradually respected by your father. In the fifth year of Yongli, you followed your father to attack Zhangpu with your father and made great contributions. In the sixth year of Yongli, you led your troops to recover Haicheng, and your father promoted you to the commander of the right town to suppress the attack."
Zheng Jing paused and continued, "In the ninth year of Yongli, my father was stationed in Simingzhou. You were promoted to Qianfeng Town. Ma Xin was your deputy. I was not wrong."
"Your Highness the Prince is so good to remember."
Yu Xin said sincerely.
"But your official position has not changed since then. Will you complain about your father in private?"
"I dare not."
Yu Xin didn't know why Zheng Jing asked this, so he quickly argued.
"But that's not what Ma Xin said."
Zheng Jing's words suddenly changed: "He reported that you were secretly surrendering to the enemy and wanted to give him to Zhenjiang. Come on, let me take him down!"
Then he threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground.
Hundreds of soldiers in full armor rushed out from behind the screen instantly, surrounding Yu Xin and others.
Yu Xin sneered, "Ma Xin? I just think his situation is not right these days. I always deliberately avoid me and find a reason for getting sick. It turns out that it is him."
Zheng Jing shook his head and said, "Yu Xin, Yu Xin, why are you still not understanding when you die? It is unpopular to want to sacrifice the city to surrender the captives. Ma Xin is just a conscience that he will report you. Are the people in your army really the same as you? How many of them are willing to betray the Ming Dynasty and be slaves? Do you have to take them into the fire pit for your own selfish interests?"
"Children with yellow mouth, don't be clamoring here. Now that's the matter, just let the horse come over!"
Yu Xin sneered, "I'll put my words here too. Even if Ma Xin rebels, I still have strong control in the army. It would be a dream to take the Forward Town without bloodshed!"
"Shoot the arrow!"
Zheng Jing didn't talk nonsense to him and immediately ordered.
The archer who had already ambushed behind the armored soldiers bent his bow and shot at Yu Xin and others, but Yu Xin only protected his face and did not deliberately avoid it.
The arrow shot on them and then slid down.
Gan Hui exclaimed: "You are wearing soft armor!"
