Please ask me to be the emperor

Zhang Shun's departure was silent, but the shock to Runcheng was greater than Zhang Shun's capture of Runcheng Town. In the eyes of the common people in Runcheng, generals like Wu Xian are already officers with strict military discipline. They did not expect that this "Optimus Prime" captured Runcheng without looting, building silver, or burning and killing. , just like the legendary Prince Yue.

Fortunately, someone was smart and suggested something: "Among the thirty-six battalions of thieves, only 'Thief Qingtian' loves the people like a son. I'm afraid this is the legendary righteous bandit!"

There were even a few bold old men who stepped forward to stop Zhang Shun's team. Zhang Shun knew that this was the time to express his love for the people and his love for the army and the people. He quickly got off his horse, took the old man's hand cordially and said, "Why are you blocking my way? But my soldiers violated the law and disturbed you?" If you have any grievances against me, I will seek justice with you!"

The old man was so excited when he heard this that he quickly broke away from Zhang Shun's hand, knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun saw that the old man was old, how could he dare to bear it? Quickly support him and prevent him from buckling his head.

The old man said "Okay" three times in excitement, and then turned to the onlookers of Runcheng and shouted: "Old man, I am eighty-three this year. The blind fortune teller said to me, 'Eighty-three is the gate of hell; after this... Guan earns ten years'!"

"Today is the old man's birthday. When I got up in the morning, I heard that the rebel army had captured Runcheng. I thought I couldn't get through the hell gate. Now I know that this is because God has mercy on me! I have lived for so many years. Not only have I seen it, but I have also heard about it. I have never heard of it. Which dynasty or emperor could have such an innocent army? Not to mention the rebels, even the officers and soldiers are like wolves and tigers, specializing in damaging human lives!"

"Now that I have opened my eyes, you are our Prince Yue of the Ming Dynasty, right? Listen to me, everyone, I have lived for more than eighty years, and this life is worth it. There are some things that are inconvenient for you to say, I will say it. !”

"If you ask me, since 'Prince Yue' has come to our Runcheng, why should we invite him to sit down and have a glass of wine before leaving. Our Runcheng has suffered many military disasters in recent years, either from bandits or from officials. It's so easy A good official came and was killed by this 'Prince Yue', so he must not have been a good official either!"

Wu Xian, who was lying on the bullock cart and lingering for breath, almost spit out a mouthful of blood when he heard this. He was so angry that he died on the spot!

But the old man didn't know that this "good official" was listening beside him, and continued: "Why don't we all ask this 'Prince Yue' to stay here for a while, and we have to guard against an official and a bandit, okay?"

When the people of Runcheng heard this, they couldn't help but cheer! They are businessmen to begin with. Unlike other people who are ashamed to talk about profit, they put profit first in everything. Previously, Wu Xian was able to protect Runcheng, and everyone contributed money and effort to invite him to garrison the city; this time, Wu Xian failed, and they turned to Zhang Shun again.

As for what to do if the government calls in the future? Are you kidding us? We are good citizens but we were robbed by bandits. What can we do? Besides, what does it matter even if you know. Even if you don't know that the officers and soldiers are coming, why don't you still loot it?

Zhang Shun looked at the people of Runcheng who saw him as if they were relatives, and couldn't laugh or cry for a moment. Who would have thought that the world would be so darkly humorous, with thieves and bandits being invited by the common people to guard against attacks by other officers, soldiers and bandits.

It's just that Zhang Shun has a merciless temper and does such a useless thing. He felt that it was not cost-effective. On the contrary, because he stayed in one place for too long, he would be easily traced by officers and soldiers.

Zhang Shenyan saw Zhang Shun's hesitation and quickly advised him: "Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. General, since you have ambitions for the world, why not stay for two days so that more people can hear your reputation?"

It turned out that Zhang Shenyan had other thoughts. He felt that he had insulted his family's reputation by going into the city with Zhang Shun. If it is done anyway in the future, there may be stains. Now if Zhang Shun is persuaded to stay in Runcheng for a period of time, firstly, it will increase the chance that the officers and soldiers will discover Zhang Shun's team. Secondly, in the future, he can argue that it is because of his persuasion that the people of Runcheng were saved from war.

It's just that Zhang Shenyan has offended two people before he started to put his thoughts into practice. His son Zhang Luxuan couldn't help but snorted coldly when he heard this, and said in a low voice to the seriously injured Wu Xian: "I am deeply ashamed to have such a father!"

Wu Xian was already very angry because of the repeated remarks of the people in Runcheng. He was even more angry because of Zhang Shenyan's remark. He couldn't help but said: "It's a good thing that I believed in his evil before. I thought that He is a loyal minister and righteous man who endures humiliation and humiliation! Now it seems that he is enjoying himself!"

Zhang Shun didn't know that behind him, these two people were chatting. He thought about it carefully and found that he really didn't have anything urgent to do at the moment. It was not impossible to hang out here for two days, so he nodded and agreed to them.

Seeing this, the people in Runcheng couldn't help cheering happily and running around to tell each other, as if they had encountered a great happy event.

Zhang Shun returned to the mansion where he originally controlled the Zhang clan, and arranged for his generals, horses, and Zhang clan members to stay here, and then his work was completed. At this time, many merchants in the city asked to see them. Zhang Shun was not arrogant or impatient. He still received them one by one and inquired about the news nearby.

Zhang Shun received him for a long time. Most of the people who came to visit were older, smooth and shrewd people. Zhang Shun hadn't figured out how to use this kind of character yet. At this time, another person came in, but he was a thin young man who looked familiar.

Zhang Shun thought about it carefully and found that he had never seen this person before, which made him feel a little strange. Before Zhang Shun could speak, he heard the man laughing and saying, "Your Majesty is so elegant and cheerful, and still has the heart to hand over the merchants here. Don't you know that the officers and soldiers outside the city are in a hurry?"

Zhang Shun felt even more strange when he saw that he was trying to show off to him, and he smiled and said, "I'm not afraid that he won't come, I'm just afraid that they won't throw themselves into the trap!"

The young man was even cunning. When he saw that he had no upper hand, he changed his words and said, "Even if the king's army is very powerful, I'm afraid the officers and soldiers are holding on to the city, and the king can't do anything to them, right?"

When Zhang Shun heard that there was something in this man's words, he smiled and said: "What do you call me? Since I mentioned this, I must have something to teach me, right?"

After hearing this, the young man said: "Don't dare, don't dare! My surname is Wang Mingmu, and my courtesy name is Qingzhi. I am originally a child of an official family, but because I offended people who shouldn't be offended, I have no hope of officialdom. So I There is some small business going on in Datong, Zezhou, I wonder if you are interested?"

"Oh? What kind of business is this?" Zhang Shun asked with a lack of interest. He was in the business of beheading, and he didn't care about ordinary small businesses.
